Chapter 217: nameless wooden monument
According to the original orientation and design of Putuo Temple, Suolongjing is located in a cave in the back mountain, which is also the result that Suolongjing has survived several natural disasters and wars.
Huixin grabbed the chains that locked the Longjing well and went down from the well, and found that the construction inside was complicated and the light was too dim. He only checked a small part and came up.
"The location of Suolongjing is so remote, and there have been no related rumors for many years. It must have nothing to do with this Hundred Ghosts Night Walk."
It's just that when there are no clues anywhere else, the Locked Dragon Well at the Putuo Temple site appears to be a bit prominent. Regardless of whether it has anything to do with the Night Walk of Hundred Ghosts, they all have to go and explore it.
After the five of them finished speaking, Qi Qi looked at Su Yunshao, wondering if she had encountered any clues while walking around.
Su Yunshao lived up to expectations, and mentioned the young lady she met in the hot spring pavilion on the front foot, and the future scene that Shan'er saw on the back foot, including the entanglement between the young lady and the scumbag green tea best friend.
"My two ghosts have already stayed by Miss Sister's side. If it happens that she is wearing an orange coat and blue trousers, is invited to the Crescent Lake or Jialan Lake, and is pushed down by someone, it means that What Shan'er saw at that time was indeed a vision of the future."
Qu Wuhua was taken aback: "Do you foresee the future?"
Hui Xin believed that she knew Su Yunshao well after working together many times. If she had foreseen such a terrifying ability in the future, she should have figured out a way to help Shan'er to cover it up, instead of saying it so calmly.
To be able to say it so clearly and carefully, it should be... "What kind of formation do you think it is?"
"I don't know what it is, it should be a very accidental opportunity." Su Yunshao found a more vivid metaphor to say, "It's similar to a mirage."
The mirage is formed due to the refraction and total reflection of light, and it is not real. It is somewhat consistent with the situation of the eyewitnesses and Shan'er who used to describe the ghosts walking at night.
"What kind of formation can reflect what happened in the future to the present?" Luo Xunlu's brows were almost wrinkled up a hill, "I have never heard Master Hengshu mention such a strange and magical formation."
On Qingshan, several judges who heard about it for the first time were also asking if Hengshu really had such a formation.
Hengshu said humbly: "The world is full of wonders, and the poor have never heard of it, which does not mean that there is no such formation."
Qi Honglian: "Most of the formations circulating in the Xuanmen world are sorted out after the civil strife. Many of the more peculiar formations before the civil strife were destroyed in the civil strife. Perhaps Baimeishan has legacy formations from the past. indefinite."
As for why there was no response before, but only this year, it depends on whether the six players can find the key to the matter.
A few of them judges can't see the whole picture through the screen, and can't help, just sit here and work in a hurry?
It was very late, and if we went to Lock Longjing to explore at this time, we would definitely not be able to catch up with midnight tonight. The six decided to put the exploration process on tomorrow, and after assigning tonight's tasks, they went back to their rooms to rest.
Su Yunshao took off the camera and microphone and turned it off temporarily.
No matter how the game and the live broadcast, the personal privacy of the players cannot be exposed, and the washing and toileting can be turned off.
And she took advantage of this time to contact Hades.
Su Yunshao: [Is there a formation that can see the future in an instant? 】
Hades replied in seconds: [No. 】
Hades: [What happened to you? 】
Su Yunshao: [The newly recruited ghost envoy saw the future scene of a young lady being killed in Baimei Mountain, only for a short moment. 】
Hades: [Where did you get the ghosts? 】
Su Yunshao: [We received two from Gu Zhuang, one named Shan'er, and the other I named Calyx. 】
The luck of the daughter-in-law is indeed getting stronger and stronger.
If it goes on like this, the reincarnation well may not be eaten by evil spirits.
The King of Hell took out the list from his arms and crossed out the good and evil ghost kings among the eighteen ghost kings.
Hades: [It is good to be able to see the past formations. The future involves time rules. Even me, I cannot easily set up formations involving rules. 】
Hades: [It may be caused by other reasons. 】
Su Yunshao: [The butterfly effect of rebirth? 】
Hades: [It's hard to say. 】
There is no silence, nor is it impossible to speak, but it is difficult to speak.
This shows that the King of Hell is not sure what exactly happened to what Shan'er saw.
Su Yunshao: [Tomorrow I will go to Suolongjing to investigate. 】
Hades: [Pay attention to safety. 】
Su Yunshao stared at the four words for a while, then replied: [Okay. 】
Then, he called Qin Shuo.
When he received the call, Qin Shuo was still a little stunned, and cautiously called out to confirm, "Yun Shao?"
"it's me."
"Aren't you participating in the Xuanmen competition, and you are not allowed to touch your phone?"
"The rules were temporarily changed and the phone was returned." Now is not the time to say this, and Su Yunshao didn't say much, "Has the little boy who died in City C been found?"
Qin Shuo: "I found it. It was found by a ghost in Yubaiyi. The boy was poured into concrete and used as a pillar of a bridge that is being built across the river. That is to say, the bridge is still under construction. , this pillar is not easy to withdraw."
Su Yunshao spit out three words with an ugly face: "Put a pile."
Originally, Qin Shuo didn't know what a piling was, until he encountered this case and asked the special department to know that there was such a cruel thing.
"The bridge across the river is very difficult to build. It is said that when the piles are driven, they can't go on all the time, and they will collapse if they are driven. Later, I was afraid that the construction period would be delayed and invited a master to come and look at it. "
"It's weird to say that after the boy was poured in concrete and used as a pillar, the bridge was built very smoothly. If it hadn't been for the man to see the boy's ghost with the yin-yang talisman, he wouldn't admit it. Special. People in the department have already obtained the portrait of the master and searched for it nationwide, and there is no news yet."
Su Yunshao: "Are there any photos of the scene? A little more complete."
"This case belongs to the special department. I got some information because I have to explain to the parents of the victim, and there are no photos of the scene."
Su Yunshao will not be aimless. If you need photos, it means that she has encountered a situation. Qin Shuo thought about it, "In this way, I will ask Gao Ran to see if he can agree to send some photos."
"It's troublesome." If it weren't for the fact that Gao Ran is now a judge of the Xuanmen Grand Competition, Su Yunshao would have trouble contacting Gao Ran rashly as a contestant, and there is no need to trouble Qin Shuo as the middleman.
Qin Shuo: "Why are you being polite to me? Without the many peace charms and mantra charms you gave, our team's case-solving rate wouldn't be so high. You can just tell me about this trivial matter. If it's not convenient for you in the game, I'll be there. When WeChat sends you, you can read it quietly."
Su Yunshao: "Okay."
After the contact was almost complete, Su Yunshao washed his hands and walked out, turned on the camera and microphone, and meditated in the room, waiting for the arrival of midnight.
The other five contestants did the same, but for different lengths of time with their cameras and microphones turned off.
Returning the phone, the judges were ready to contact the contestants in private, and some of them even touched their phones in front of them, including Gu Ze.
Thinking with their toes, they knew that the contestants were asking their elders if there was such a formation, but the constant technique with the highest level of formation said so, and they could only give an ambiguous answer.
At 11:30, the six contestants and the ghost messengers arrived in advance at all the places where the phenomenon of ghosts walking at night was said to have occurred and began to wait.
After ten minutes, I didn't see any ghosts, let alone a hundred ghosts walking at night, so I had to return without success.
Therefore, they understand that the so-called Hundred Ghosts Night Walk is likely to be what happened to the client on Baimei Mountain, and it will break out at a special time or opportunity.
If it has to be linked to the mirage, it is a personal version of the mirage that can only be seen by a fixed number of people.
Fortunately, the number of people I saw was limited, and I didn't see it all the time, so the incident was suppressed.
Not long after Su Yunshao returned to the room, Ruan Mei and Shan'er returned with smug faces.
Ruan Meiyin said with a smile: "Sir, Shaner and I taught the scumbag and green tea a lesson by dreaming, and let them know the fate of getting something for nothing and coveting other people's property. Of course, the most important thing is that cheating and betrayal of others' feelings will lead to Some end miserably."
"Sir, we peeked at Miss Sister's wardrobe, and there really is that set of clothes in it." Shan'er's little face was red, her smile was very well-behaved, and she was a little embarrassed for peeking at other people's clothes without her consent.
Su Yunshao didn't ask in detail what he had done, anyway, it was the lesson he gave in his dream, which could make them grow wiser by taking a bite out of it, and it would be best to be a good person from now on.
The two of them just came back to report the progress of the lessons taught by the dream, and then went back to stay with the young lady in case of an accident.
At this time, all the contestants turned off their cameras and microphones to go to sleep. Su Yunshao turned them off as well, and immediately received many pictures and documents from Qin Shuo.
At such an accurate time, she suspected that Gao Ran saw that the camera on her side was turned off, and immediately notified Qin Shuo to let him send it.
After getting this, Su Yunshao didn't want to sleep for a while, so he turned it out and checked it a little bit.
Part of the information should be added by Qin Shuo asking Gao then, Gao Ran asked people from the special department to temporarily investigate, because there are more information on the reasons and the specific time of the boy and his family visiting Baimei Mountain. things are irrelevant.
The boy is from City B, he is eight years old this year, and he is in the second grade of primary school.
The parents thought that they had not taken their children out to play for a long time, so they chose Baimei Mountain during the three-day holiday of the Dragon Boat Festival.
According to my parents, everything was normal during the trip. On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, my son suddenly said that he saw a lot of ghosts, and he went to the hospital with a fever in the middle of the night.
Within two days, the son returned to normal. If he didn't see anyone again, he said there was a ghost. The parents were relieved, cleaned up, and returned to City B. Who knew that the son disappeared within two months.
Gao Ran should have sent someone to ask specifically. There is a question in the document: Has your son encountered anything special on Baimei Mountain, or brought back something from the mountain?
The boy's parents insisted at first that no, and when the special department said that it was probably the thing that killed the child, the mother took out a stone.
The mother's original words were: "I knew this thing would kill him, so I wouldn't let him pick it up! But this thing is really just a stone thrown on the side of the road. Who knew it would kill someone?"
Su Yunshao flipped through the photos and videos of this stone. It was a two-finger stone, one side was golden with fine sand, and the other side was dark blue like cotton wool, which was very special.
Time has passed for so long, and looking at the screen again, the traces of the spell on the stone have almost disappeared, but the remaining parts can be pieced together to form a talisman - forcing the eyes of yin and yang.
The talismans in Su Yunshao's paintings are all temporary Yin-Yang eyes. If they are not necessary, they can't be opened. If they are opened and exposed to the sun, the effect will be eliminated, just because Yin-Yang eyes will bring a lot of trouble to ordinary people.
Ordinary people with yin and yang eyes can't tell who is human and who is ghost, especially children who don't know much.
Unless it was like the ghost the boy saw that night, he didn't spend yin and cultivation base to repair his appearance, then he would be recognized at a glance.
Didn't Zhuo Jinglun feel that Yin-Yang eyes would have a great impact on daily life, so he asked Su Yunshao to help seal it up?
Therefore, this kind of behavior of forcibly opening the eyes of Yin and Yang regardless of the wishes of the parties is a bit excessive.
It's just that Su Yunshao was also curious, why did the boy only see ghosts for a few days under the influence of this talisman?
Is it because the talisman has existed for too long and lost its proper function, or is this just an experimental talisman that does not really have the effect of opening the eyes of yin and yang?
That stone is called golden blue stone. It is named after the color of the stone. It is a kind of material for refining. It is not particularly precious, but it is not so common that it is casually thrown on the side of the road for people to pick up.
Su Yunshao had reason to suspect that the boy was being targeted.
That stone may have been used to test the boy's suitability for a certain condition.
Looking further down, she saw that the position where the boy was placed as the pillar of the cross-river bridge was an ordinary piling pile, without any formation, nor special, not even the most important pillars.
It seems that it does not match her above speculation.
Su Yunshao temporarily put the little boy's affairs aside, opened the browser, and searched for Gu Ze.
When she saw Gu Ze's photo during the day, she realized that this person was President Gu who had a relationship in the airport waiting room. At that time, she also took a few more glances because of Gu Ze's strange face, which provoked Gu Ze to send a ghost messenger over to test it.
She wouldn't be stupid enough to think that Gu Ze was too busy to recognize her, so she had to prepare for the worst.
Su Yunshao swiped through news and photos, originally looking for a recent photo of Gu Ze to see what was going on with his face, but accidentally flipped through a gossip news.
There was a photo of Gu Ze as a student when he was young. In the photo, Gu Ze smiled warmly at the camera. He was a handsome brother next door. He was completely different from Gu Ze, who was now a sullen and suspicious person who was always coughing.
And this boy's face in his school days turned out to be the wheelchair boy who scared him in Silver Wing Demon Yuan's memory.
"It's such a coincidence."
Su Yunshao's eyes became colder and colder, don't let her know that Yinyi's tragic death was also attributed to Gu Ze's handwriting, otherwise she must let Gu Ze taste the taste of ninety-eighty-one Heavenly Thunder Talismans!
Su Yunshao: [Help me find out about Gu Ze, the salary is easy to say, be careful yourself. 】
Bai Xiaomo: [Received! 】
The next morning, the six went to Baimei Mountain again.
This time they are going to Suolongjing. Before that, they have to pass through the ruins of Putuo Temple.
Putuo Temple was originally a temple, some buildings were destroyed by mudslides and buried below, some buildings and Buddha statues were shattered and collapsed by artillery bombardment, and many woods were left in darkness after being burned.
Huixin used the words "broken walls and ruins" to describe the ruins, which is really suitable. Every part of the ruins is shocking, and she subconsciously does not want to think about how many cruel things happened in those days.
Qu Wuhua said sadly: "These ancient buildings are also part of the ancient culture, why haven't they been restored?"
There is such a ruin in a AAA-level scenic tourist area, no one will believe it is not intentional.
Excluding the local reasons for not attaching importance to Buddhist culture and lack of money for restoration may be to let every later person understand the truth of "remember history and never forget national humiliation".
Comet said "Amitabha" and pointed to the direction behind the ruins, "There are many wooden monuments without names over there."
They all arrived here, and a few people were not in a hurry. It happened to be the direction leading to the back mountain, so they went over to take a look.
I thought that Huixin was talking about the tombstones built by later generations, but I didn't expect it to be a wooden monument that was split out of wood. There was no name on it. It was only tied with red cloth, and it was erected there.
After being exposed to the wind, sun and rain for a long time, the red cloth **** decades ago has long since faded, leaving only a few bits of red.
Some fresh or dry flowers were placed in front of some wooden monuments, which were put down by tourists who came to pay their respects to the heroic spirits one after another. Weeds and wild flowers grew next to some wooden monuments. Clear signs.
Looking up, these wooden monuments are densely packed and erected irregularly. At a glance, they are all within the range that can be seen, at least there are hundreds.
The six stood there quietly, breathing lightly, as if they were afraid of disturbing the Heroic Spirit sleeping here.
Everyone watching the live broadcast could not help but stand up and pay tribute to these heroes who died for the country.
Gu Ze was the only one, sitting in a wheelchair because of his poor mobility, with his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.
After what happened just now, the six contestants were all silent.
Huixin visited the Putuo Temple ruins once yesterday, and the second time he saw the wooden monuments today was still so shocking that he couldn't calm down for a long time.
He led the way in front of him, walking for a long time, "Here it is."
The five looked in the direction of his fingers and found that it was a cave covered by layers of vines, very hidden.
Su Yunshao: "How did Daoist Huixin find this place?"
"It's the dragon's roar." Hui Xin said, "It should be the sound of Suolongjing."
As soon as the voice fell, a dull and loud dragon roar came from the entrance of the cave. The roar seemed to turn into a sound wave, which was deafening, forcing the six people to take a few steps back.
The roar of the dragon made the audience on this side of the screen feel their ears buzzing. It is conceivable how uncomfortable the ears of the contestants who heard it at close range would be.
No one noticed that the silver-white scale belonging to the silver frost in the inner layer of Su Yunshao's backpack emitted a faint glow.
Under the cover of various items such as the mobile phone talisman, the faint light never showed through the backpack.
At the same time, 100 meters below the ground, a pair of huge dragon eyes opened.
