Ghost Blowing Lantern II

Chapter 242 The Soul-Scare Bridge

Shirley Yang and Yao Meier also shook their heads, unable to believe that there would be an invisible bridge. Shirley Yang said: "In areas where energy is highly concentrated, human physical common sense will lose its effect. As long as conditions permit, even time and The space will be distorted, but the special airflow formed at the intersection of the valleys will not have such a high energy field."

I smiled bitterly and said: "Sun Jiuye is indeed an old comrade. He implements the leadership's instructions very thoroughly. Shirley Yang is also a top student at the U.S. Naval Academy. What you said makes sense. Although I have seen many in my life, Weird things, to be honest, I don’t believe there is an invisible bridge, but I believe the abyss in front of us is a bridge...the Bridge of Scare."

(Note: Frightening bridge - frightening pronunciation he, four tones)

Professor Sun immediately criticized: "It's just playing the piano randomly. How can you expect everyone to walk through the eye of the storm? Although the turbulent currents in the mountains can absorb stones, where will they be swept to in the end? Have you calculated it? However, how heavy will the self-respect of us people, plus the equipment we carry, weigh in total? Let alone reaching the sky in one step, we will fall into the deep stream if we take even half a step. We must be rigorous and pragmatic!"

I shook my head. I didn’t say I wanted to walk on the air. Since it was mentioned in the Guanshan Zhimi Fu - "In front of the frightening stage, the Yin River flows across the sky; the fairy bridge has no shadow and is hard to find with the naked eye; one falls on a rock and sacrifices oneself. According to previous experience, the saying "one step to the sky" must have its counterpart, and the "T" shaped canyon in front of Longmen is a Huashan Road, so I believe there should be a so-called Shadowless Immortal in front of it. Bridge, but we have to find a way to find it.

Shirley Yang said: "The words are true, but even if we find the Shadowless Immortal Bridge, it's hard to say whether we can go there. Have you ever thought that the unknown deceased at the entrance of the tunnel is carrying Tao Zang, and he may be a former dynasty who sought truth. Man, if he couldn't find a way into the ancient tomb of Dixian Village, he could just go back the way he came. But judging from the way he died, it seemed that he had found the Wuyingxian Bridge, but he didn't have the courage to pass it, and he was unwilling to leave. , eventually wandering in the tunnel and dying."

After listening to what Shirley Yang said, I immediately remembered that on the front line, many comrades were killed and injured by "booby traps". The situation was extremely tragic. Many soldiers were not afraid of charging into the battle, but they were only afraid of the various, overt and covert attacks. "Booby traps" set up.

As the saying goes, "Soldiers never tire of deceit." The unknown deceased in the tunnel died inexplicably. Except for a few Taoist volumes, there was nothing extra on his body that could let people know his identity. In ancient tombs that have been carefully laid out in the past, there are many suspicious arrays to prevent theft. The dead body and the Guanshan Zhimi Fu were both "bait", a "booby trap" used by the Guanshan Taibao to lead the tomb robbers to a dead end.

These thoughts lingered in my mind, and my intuition, which had been wandering on the edge of life and death all year round, told me, "These signs are too abnormal, and you must not be careless!"

Thinking of this, I said to Professor Sun and Shirley Yang: "The Shadowless Immortal Bridge may not be difficult to find, but I estimate that even if you find it, you will have to take a huge risk to get there. The question now is, can this risk be taken? Can’t take it? What if it’s a trap with no return? How can we judge whether the mountain-viewing instructions in the tunnel are true or false?”

Sun Jiuye said confidently: "This matter is very easy. As long as you can find a way to make the Wuying Fairy Bridge appear, with my rich experience in archaeological work for many years, I can naturally verify whether it is true or false. A false bridge cannot escape me." "The Fire-Eyed Golden Spirit, but looking at the second half of the Guanshan Zhimi Fu, the content is mostly consistent with the results of my investigation, so I believe that as long as the Shadowless Immortal Bridge really exists, the stone carvings on the stele are 80% true."

I pondered for a moment and thought that this was the truth. It was useless to say anything else. We should first find a way to find the "Shadowless Immortal Bridge". I discussed it with Shirley Yang for a few words, but no one could think of what kind of bridge it would be. The bridge is invisible to the naked eye. Shirley Yang speculated that there may be a hidden meaning.

I thought to myself: "Sacrifice yourself at the drop of a rock, and reach the sky in one step. What does sacrificing your life at the drop of a rock mean? Does it mean holding the stone and jumping into the air?" An idea came to my mind: "No, the falling rock is in front, and the sacrifice is behind. If it means don't Holding the rock and walking downwards, it should mean sacrificing one's life and falling on the rock. Sacrificing one's life on the rock may mean pushing the rock down first, and then making an act of sacrificing one's life."

I glanced around and saw that there were many broken rocks of different sizes in the tunnel. I was standing there thinking wildly, where could I get the point? No matter how he fell, he first picked up a big rock and pushed it down to explore, so he called the fat man for help. The two came to the edge of a rock weighing several hundred kilograms and pushed it twice. The boulder swayed slightly, and it turned out that it could be pushed.

The rest of the people also wanted to come over to help, and the fat man waved his hand: "Everyone, don't come over here, just wait by the side, and quickly make room for the fat man, don't crush your feet." After that, First, he loosened two buckles of the belt, because he was worried that the belt would break if he exerted too much force.

The fat man wanted to show his talents and pushed me aside. I was worried that he would use too much force and be swept away by the turbulent current along with the rocks. That would really be like "living on the rocks", so I used the "Flying Tiger Claw" to shoulder him. The upper load-bearing belt was hung up, and the other three people were pulling behind to protect it.

The fat man rolled up his sleeves, looked at his palms and spat twice, stretched out his lunge, put his shoulders against the rock, took a deep breath, moved it to his Dantian, shook his body, and shouted like a thunderbolt: "Open it!" !”

The big rock suddenly fell forward. Due to its huge weight and being close to the exit of the tunnel, it was not sucked by the turbulent flow in front of the "Dragon Gate". It hit the cliff and rolled down into the deep stream full of mist.

Due to the extremely close distance between the two sides of the mountain stream, the rocks rolled and fell down, colliding back and forth between the cliffs, making a dull rumbling echo. When we heard it from the entrance of the tunnel, we felt that the canyon was unfathomable, and we did not hear it for a long time. The sound of boulders falling to the ground.

Everyone saw the fat man pushing down the rock, but there was no invisible bridge in front of the "Scare Platform", and there were no signs of any abnormality. They couldn't help but feel a little frustrated. They were about to try again when their plan failed, but they suddenly felt a wave of pain in their ears. There was a burst of noisy movement.

At this time, the mountain rock has not yet fallen to the ground. In addition to the continuous reverberation on the mountain wall, it seems that there are thousands of pots of hot water boiling at the same time. Then the sound of boiling water turns to the noise of frying salt beans, densely stirring. My ear bones were aching, and I thought badly: "Luoyanluo is in trouble, what should I do?"

Professor Sun and Yao Meier were also frightened by the noisy and dense noise, and couldn't help but take two steps back. Shirley Yang blocked the gold steel umbrella in front of them and said: "Don't panic, I'm afraid it's Wuying Fairy Bridge is out."

The complicated and dense sounds in my ears suddenly became tight. It felt like standing in front of the gate of hell, facing countless evil ghosts who had escaped from the underworld. I was shocked and at a loss. I took back the "Flying Tiger Claw" , handed it back to Shirley Yang's hand, and then secretly held the engineering shovel tightly, feeling extremely uneasy: "Is it possible that the Immortal Bridge in front of the Frightening Stage was built by Yin soldiers? The layout of the ancient tomb in Dixian Village is indeed made by gods. I guess it is not arrive……"

The fat man's face also changed color. He opened his stance and pointed his rapid-fire weapon in the air. No matter what it was, he had to shoot dozens of armor-piercing cones at it first.

Just when everyone was confused and frightened, a burst of black smoke suddenly rushed into the sky from the bottom of the valley. I was shocked and even more unexpected, shouting: "What is this?" After taking a closer look, I felt that I was almost blinded. , turned out to be countless palm-sized golden swifts, which flew out from the bottom of the cliff after being frightened, and were immediately wrapped in the turbulent currents in the canyon. They were mixed together in groups, and the number was dazzling. One hundred thousand people.

Golden swifts are good at nesting between cliffs, and they are swarming creatures. When there are many, there can be hundreds of thousands of golden swifts in a single swiftlet cave. The nests made of their saliva are very special. Because most of the bird's nest caves are located in dangerous terrain, people who collect bird's nests must be able to climb rocks, and the risks and rewards are high.

It turns out that there are many caves where golden swifts nest on the cliff at the bottom of the "Scare Platform". The rock that the fat man pushed down startled a large group of golden swifts to come out of their nests. Swifts have a common name among the people, called "Wind Lane". "Diamonds" are the best at flying with the wind. There are even legends that they can sleep in the wind, and their speed is amazing. When they fly by, they are as fast as lightning. At this moment, tens of thousands of flying swallows soar into the sky, reaching The mouth of the gorge was suddenly caught up in the invisible air current of the "Yin River".

The golden swifts like to flock together. They were rolled up into a ball by the vortex, and were sucked into the eye of the wind for a while, unable to break free. The swallows were so dense that there were almost no gaps. More swifts flew up from the bottom of the canyon, and more swifts flew up. A steady stream of people joined the Yan Formation.

The airflow that originally gathered from the high altitude of the deep gorge on three sides was immediately blocked by a large group of golden swifts. The invisible "Yin River" across the sky was filled in an instant, and tens of thousands of swallows came from several directions. Blocked by the turbulent flow, the area in front of the gantry of the "T" shaped canyon was tightly filled, forming an incredible "Swallow Bridge".

I took a breath of air: "It turns out that the Shadowless Immortal Bridge... is made of a large group of golden swifts!" Seeing tens of thousands of golden swifts flying and entangled in front of me, it seemed as if they were frozen in the wind. I couldn't believe the wonders I saw.

But I know that this spectacle can only last for a short moment. As more and more golden swifts emerge from the cliff caves, the swallows will soon break through the turbulence and fly away with the wind. "Shadowless Immortal Bridge" will become invisible again.

I don’t know how much time it will take until all the golden swifts return to their nests and can re-form the bridge. If you want to sacrifice your life to seek immortality, you must leave life and death behind at this time and risk your life to set foot on this "swallow". Bridge", stepping on the flying swallows straight through the "Dragon Gate" in front of the Wuyang King's ancient cemetery.

I don't know if the golden swifts huddled together can hold people's attention, and crossing this bridge is like flying across the waves. If you step on the air, you will fall into the abyss. The dragon gate on the other side of the bridge is unpredictable. Once you cross the "Shenxian Bridge", you will definitely not be able to get back within a short while. Is the "Guanshan Zhimi Fu" left by the Earthly Immortal trustworthy?

Philosophers say that "character determines destiny", because character controls various choices on the road of life, which can also be understood as "life is composed of countless choices". I have always been willing to take risks, but if you want me to be willing to take risks, , at least it has to make me feel more than 30% sure, but now I don’t even have half the confidence. It’s not that I don’t dare to cross the bridge, but I am worried that I will fall into a trap after crossing the bridge.

These thoughts flashed through my mind, but no one could think too much about this situation at the moment. I glanced at the people around me to see what they were thinking, and whether I needed to stay still and watch the changes, even if I waited. It’s only a day and a half, and it’s not too late to go when you’re fully confident.

The fat man on the side was watching with his heart trembling, and he cursed: "What an old monster who watches mountains and robs tombs. Most likely he and his lover have been separated for many years. Otherwise, how could he play this trick of building the magpie bridge on the seventh day of July? This bird Where is the bridge for people to walk on?"

Professor Sun was overjoyed and shouted: "This is simply a miraculous fairy bridge. Fatty Wang, aren't you and Hu Bayi always bragging about being virtuous men who dare to do anything? What? Are you afraid now?" This is a dangerous way to reach the sky in one step, just be bold and walk, the Dragon Bone Diagram is right ahead, the Golden Swallow Bridge will fall apart at any time, we must hurry up and cross the bridge!"

The fat man grabbed Professor Sun: "What kind of manly man are you? If you get on the bridge, you will fall off and be smashed into pieces! Fatty, I..." Before he could finish his words, he suddenly rushed out and stepped onto the bridge. The "fairy bridge" made of golden swiftlets was piled up. The turbulent current in the mountain stream made him stagger. He seemed to be struggling to stand up from the pile of swallows, but his hands and feet immediately sank down, and he somersaulted onto the golden swiftlets. In front of Yanzi Bridge.

I know that the fat man has always been afraid of heights. His phobia is a psychological disorder. In fact, he has no special reaction. He is just soft legs and dizziness. Sometimes he can overcome it under certain material conditions. When flying, he drinks medicine to sleep. When I It seemed that this was not a big deal, but I never expected that he would rush onto the Yanzi Bridge first. This was so inconsistent with his style. I lacked sufficient mental preparation for this, and I didn't even have time to stop him.

But I immediately realized that it was impossible to drag him back. At this point, I had no choice but to say "side by side" together. At least I couldn't let him "fold" alone on the opposite side. I shouted to everyone: "Don't be afraid." , this bridge is strong enough to accommodate people, everyone should cross the bridge!"

Amidst the noisy swallows' cries, I grabbed Professor Sun and Shirley Yang grabbed Yao Meier, and the four of us rushed to the bridge. All we could hear was the whining and whistling wind, and we were sucked in by the airflow in an instant. His body seemed to be in a state of weightlessness, and he couldn't exert any strength under his feet, so he fell forward involuntarily.
