My relationship with Uncle Hai is not good enough to talk about nothing. Usually it is some business communication. After getting acquainted, I asked him to uncle Sheng to give him a face. He suddenly wanted to be close to me. I felt something strange. .However, the little girl did not show me well, so she agreed with her casually and asked her, "How do you say? What did he find out?"

Qin Haiting smiled badly, "My uncle said, I will tell you later, I don't know what happened, don't ask me."

I scolded secretly in my heart, this old profiteer, it is estimated that I want to knock on my stick again.

On the third day, Laohai really arrived. I picked him up from the train station and took him to the hotel where I booked. On the bus, I asked him if I heard any news. I would not spare him if I was caught.

Laohai shivered coldly, and said, "The dragon is heading to the site without suppressing the head snake. How dare I hide you, but let's not say it here, I'm almost frozen to death."

I brought him to the hotel, put down things, went to the dining room to find a box, burned the jug of wine, a few glasses of diarrhea, finally relieved.

I think he's been so strong all the way to his neck that he knows it's almost the same, and asks him, "Okay, you drank and drank, and drank and drank. Should I say, what did you find?"

He blinked his mouth, smiled, took a stack of paper from his bag, and slapped it on the table, "Look at this."

I picked it up and saw it. It was an old yellowed newspaper. The date was 1974. He circled a piece of news with a large black and white photo. Although it was not very clear, I recognized it. , The photo was taken of a snake-eye copper fish, and there are many small artifacts on the side, like things like beads.

But this fish looks different from the one in my hand and the one in Sanshu.There are three fish reliefs on the forehead of the graveyard statue in the seabed tomb. This one should be the top one.In this way, it can be said that all three fish are born.

I asked Lao Hai: "How did you find this newspaper? Is there anything hidden behind it?"

Lao Haidao: "I am helping a big boss to tinker with old newspapers. You know, rich people collect everything. You see, this is the Guangxi Cultural Evening News in 1974. He wants me to go from January to December. I found it for him. It took me two months to get it together. The delivery is due in the next few days. After checking it, it happened that I saw this news. What happened? This newspaper is July 4th. It ’s been a year after the year, and it ’s closed in seven or five years. It ’s hard to find in the world. If you are lucky, my eyes will be gone soon. "

My eyes glanced down, there are about 300 words of news under the photo, saying that the fish was found in the pagoda of a Buddhist temple in Guangxi. The pagoda collapsed because of its age and was dug out when the rubble was cleaned up. In the underground palace, there are some scriptures and treasure letters already in Paulan. One of the treasure letters contains this fish.Experts speculate that it was the relics of monks in the late Northern Song Dynasty.

Northern Song Dynasty?I lit a cigarette and leaned on the back of the chair. I murmured in my heart. This snake-breasted copper fish, the first fish, appeared in the tombs of the princes in the late Warring States Period. The second fish was in the late Yuan and early Ming In the seabed tomb, the third fish is in the stupa palace of the Northern Song Dynasty.What kind of plane does it have?

I flipped through the other parts of the newspaper, only this piece of news was about this fish. In fact, there is nothing new about these contents, which means that there is nothing to say. I still know nothing about this fish, thinking about people Depressed.

Lao Hai looked at my expression and said: "Don't be discouraged, I haven't finished it yet, the story behind it is still wonderful."

I frowned. "How do you say? What else can this newspaper derive from?"

Laohai nodded and said, "That's it, if I just find a newspaper, I don't have to come to Hangzhou to find you, do I? I have to start from the beginning. By the way, you're also a mixed bag, know I do n’t know a person called Chen Pi A Si? ”

I was shocked. Chen Pi Asi was a famous native of Changsha in Changsha. He was a character of the same generation as my grandfather. I heard that he is now in his 90s and was blind during ten years of catastrophe. , Hasn't appeared since then, and I don't know whether it is dead or alive.But his name is still in my grandpa's mouth.

However, this man is different from his grandfather. He lives on the edge of a knife, not just stealing graves, killing people and setting fires, as long as he can get the money, he does everything, so before the liberation people called him to shave his head. He murdered like he was shaving his head without hesitation.

Lao Hai mentioned this person, I was a little surprised, because he is not the same character as ours, and I have never been in contact with him. Could this fish be related to him?The story behind this fish, even if it has nothing to do with me, is definitely worth listening to.

Laohai looked at me without talking, thinking that I did n’t know, and said, “It ’s not surprising that you do n’t know about Chen Si ’s thing. You are not the same generation as us, but I have to tell you, this copper fish in this newspaper, It was he who brought it out of the stupa, and things were not as simple as what the newspaper said. "He said that he briefly told me about the events of the year.

It turned out that in 1974, Chen Pi'a also had nearly sixty, and his eyes were not blind. At that time, it was a decade of turmoil. He was a platoon leader in the Kuomintang army because of the early liberation, and later he was transformed into I have been a bandit for several years, so I have no legal status. At that time, I was arrested to kill him. He could only operate in minority areas around Guangxi, and even the county did not dare to step in.

In the early years, apart from the Sijiu, many monuments were almost destroyed. Chen Pi'a went to many places in Guangxi, because Guangxi was not a Central Plain in ancient times, and there are not many ancient tombs. He has been honest in the past few years. , But unfortunately, that year, he happened to be passing goods in Qiaoqiaoling and chatting with a few Miao people in the local area. Those people had drunk too much, so he talked about the collapse of a temple tower in Maoer Mountain The thing was that there was a lot of movement and even the ground fell, and a big pit collapsed. On the night of the collapse, many heard a very strange scream.

Chen Pi'a felt wrong when he heard it. He has been to Maoer Mountain many times. The temples there are very strong. How could it be said that it collapsed?When I asked carefully, I realized that the tower was not on Mao'er Mountain, but on the edge of a mountain range called "Wofoling". This place is very strange, surrounded by villages, that is, a basin of about ten square kilometers in the middle. , The altitude is very low, the vegetation is dense, the trees are covered by the sky, the village is above the cliff, the wood is below the cliff, the difference is more than 100 meters, it is two completely different worlds, and from the village, there is no way to go down. To this basin, only ropes are used.

Locals say that there must be other imports and exports in this basin, but the underground vegetation is too dense and it is difficult to walk. The Miao people who went down and hunted and collected medicines often went back and disappeared, so they generally did not Things, everyone is willing to go.

That ancient pagoda was built in such a place, almost in the center of the basin. When people look down from the cliff, they can only see a very small pagoda with a dense canopy and full of plants, what is below I ca n’t see clearly. Miao Min said that they knew there was a tower here more than a dozen generations ago, but no one expected to watch it. Now they are used to it. Recently, one day, there was a sudden loud noise. It was gone, only to know that the tower collapsed.

There are still many legends about the mysterious ancient pagoda. According to some old people, this pagoda was used by a monk in ancient times to build a demon town. Now that the tower falls, the monster will come out and do evil. Strange call is the sound of a monster getting rid of its bondage.

After listening to Chen Pi Asi, he found it very interesting. He vaguely felt that the location of the tower construction and the sound heard by Miao Min in the middle of the night were a bit off.

Anyone like them may have a peculiar instinct to find information instinctively from other people's narratives and some legends. This is already very difficult to find in our generation.

Chen Pi A thought about it for a moment and decided to go and see.

There are many mountain ranges in Guangxi. It can be called the first in the country. Maoer Mountain is one of the important sources, spanning the three counties of Xing'an, Resources and Longsheng.It is the birthplace of the Li River, Zijiang River, and Xun River, and connects the two major river systems of the Yangtze River and the Pearl River. There is a large area of ​​primitive jungle. The first mountain and old mountain boundary crossed by the Red Army Long March is in it.During World War II, several bombers that aided the Huamei Flying Tigers mysteriously disappeared here.So this place has always been a bit mysterious.

After many twists and turns, Chen Pia came to a village on the "Wolf Ridge" and stood on the dirt hill to look at the basin in the middle of the mountains. I fucked, the tower was bigger than he thought, and it fell when he fell down. Several trees fell, so there was a gap in the green tree cover of the forest. On the "Wolf Ridge", there was nothing in the gap, but Chen Pi'ai discovered it almost immediately, one week after the tower collapsed. All the trees are very messy because the ground is sinking. It looks like there is something under the tower, and the volume is bigger than the tower base.

I heard here, I already know that it is a "Jing'er Palace", "Jing'er Palace" is a dialect before the liberation of Changsha, that is to say, there are underground parts below the above-ground buildings with the same scale as the above-ground buildings, it looks like Like the reflection of the ground building on the lake, the upper and lower ends are symmetrical.

This is also called "yin and yang shuttle" in the Northern School, which means that the whole building is like a shuttle inserted in the ground, one side is the yin and the other side is the yang, but such ancient tombs or ancient buildings are rare, most of the ground The ruins of have been destroyed and clean, so this argument has been almost never mentioned in the ten years before liberation.

Chen Pi'a only looked at the arrangement of the trees, and he knew that "Jing'er Palace" is buried underneath. This kind of judgment is impossible without extremely rich experience. I can't help but sigh, rather calm and listen. Lao Hai went on.

After Chen Pi'a made up his mind, there was greed in his heart. There were only three things in the stupa of the stupa, either the relics, the golden body of the monk, or a large number of Buddhist scriptures, whatever It's all a matter of value.

But a foreigner like him is not very convenient for activities here. Once he has a special status and a bad background. Second, the Miao and Han tribes were arguing at that time. Several villages here are Miao villages. Cause others to doubt.

Thinking again and again, he came up with a strategy. He found a local Miao guide who paid a high price. He told the guide that he was an old intellectual from the branch who came from outside. When he came, one of his students fell off the cliff. The Miao people have a simple style and do n’t know how to do things. How come they thought there was a trick in it. When they heard someone hang, they immediately notified the people in the whole village. The young Miao man tied the hanging basket with a rope and helped Chen Pi Asi with a few Young man put under the cliff.

According to Chen Pi Asi ’s own recollection afterwards, the drop of more than 100 meters was a hell-like experience. The cliff is very steep, the weight of the person is completely stretched by a vine rope, the buttocks are wrapped in a basket, the wind blows The human is spinning like a gyro, extremely unstable.By the time he passed through the thick tree cover and descended to the bottom of the jungle, only half of his life was left.

There is almost no sunlight inside the forest, the light is extremely dim, and the air is full of the smell of methane. There are many types of trees here, but without exception, all places have green moss, the mud is very soft, and it can hardly stand. .

After Chen Pi's fourth came down, he pretended to be physically overdrawn (in fact, it was really scared). He sat there and gasped. The Miao leader saw that he was not too young. He looked like an old man, so he waited in situ. They come back.Start a torch yourself and greet others to search in the direction he pointed.

As soon as they left, Chen Pi'a took out the compass immediately and drilled into the depths of the jungle according to the directions noted in advance. He estimated that in such a large area, the Miao people would take one night back and forth to use his This ability should be enough to find the entrance of "Jing'er Palace" and come back and forth.It's a pity that he didn't bring enough equipment this time, whether he can enter the palace or not depends on his own character.

After walking for four hours in the jungle headlessly, relying on the compass and his courage to go south and north all these years, Chen Pi Asi finally came to the area he planned on "Wolf Ridge", that is that Temple ruins around a tower.

With continuous deepening, Chen Pi'ai saw more and more broken eaves and broken walls. Obviously the ancient buildings here have disappeared, leaving only some foundations and broken walls, almost mixed with those vegetation, I don't know what it was.But looking at the scale, this monastery has a huge area. Although the pagoda falls within this large area, it is difficult to see exactly where it is.

Chen Pi'a's age is not small, walking around, I feel a little short of breath, just want to sit down and rest, suddenly flashed in front of me, the whole wall of grass planted on the side was suddenly shrunk, and it seemed to be wrapped in what.

Chen Pi Asi was startled. He rolled over and rolled out. At the same time, he turned over an iron bomb. When he looked back, he saw that there was a dead body dressed in a vine in the vine quilt wrapped around the wall. It was shrivelled, but the belly of the corpse, not knowing why, was agitating slightly, as if there was something in it.
