I looked at them and asked, "Old Ma, how did you find them?"

Ma Su smiled wryly and said, "I really let you talk. Ouyang might have told us to camp on the lake beach, and I was also to blame. He insisted on going to a higher place on his own. After they came back, they really didn't find us on the lake beach."

I questioned: "That's not right, there are iron pillars there, and we are not far from the shore of the lake, why can't we be found?"

Ouyang waved his hand and said, "Master doesn't know. On the shore of the lake, it is washed by the lake water every day, and some smells will be isolated. Although you are not far away, Tie Zhu can't smell your whereabouts."

Ma Di waved his hand: "It's hard for you to speak, let me speak."

I smiled. In fact, Ouyang was with us and communicated constantly.He has tried his best to get rid of the strong taste of classical Chinese before, and now, except for a few words, most of them are almost the same as what we say.

But as long as he speaks, it is easy to hear the difference from us.

Ma Di took the words and said: "Actually, there is another way to get here. Ouyang or Tie Zhu have also found another way to get here. But after we went back to find us, they continued to look for us around. We When we got down to the beach, they just left. Then when you got on the bridge, they came back. It just happened that we were only half an hour apart. We missed each other."

I questioned, "Then why don't you immediately follow us on the bridge?"

Ma Di waved his hand: "No way. Do you know what that stone bridge said? I originally wanted Ouyang or to take me on the bridge to chase you. But he said that it is a dark bridge, and the most people can cross every night Two living people, if there are more, someone will have an accident."

"The stone bridge is a Yin bridge?" I was surprised when I heard it.

No wonder on that bridge I see images of those who have died.

When Ma Su couldn't express clearly, Ouyang would occasionally insert a few sentences to explain the origin and function of the Yin Bridge to me.

This yin bridge was born from the water.

Of course, when the stone bridge was built, it was definitely not built as a shade bridge.I don't know which dynasty built that stone bridge, but it must have been at least a few hundred years ago.

And why such a bridge was built at that time, its purpose is also unknown.Because there is only one stagnant lake here, and no river passes through it.The most likely argument is that it was for military purposes.Due to the many wars in ancient times, the Xiaozhou Mountain is steep and may be a military fortress.This bridge spans the stagnant lake. After it is completed, it can advance and retreat freely, and it plays an extremely important role in the supply of food, grass and supplies.

Ouyang may infer that when the bridge was built, something must have happened, and it should have been piled.

I am really no stranger to piling.Of course, most of the knowledge in this area, I have heard from my third uncle, and the matter of making piles is no exception.

The so-called piling is a mysterious architectural technique in ancient China, which is to bury people alive in the construction site before the construction project starts, and its purpose is to ensure the smooth progress of the project.This kind of alchemy is recorded in the "Book of Luban", which records a large number of alchemy.Luban believed that when people start construction in a place, they will destroy the feng shui of the place and offend the ghosts and gods there, so that accidents often occur during the construction period, and burying living people on the construction site is equivalent to offering sacrifices to ghosts and gods , similar to the custom of sacrificing living people to river gods and mountain gods, hoping to reduce architectural accidents.The piles buried alive became the patron saint of the building, maintaining the stability of the building.

Ouyang may say that the bridge must have been piling.But it is said that for a building, only one pile is required.But according to his observation, the purpose of this bridge is unknown, and there must be more than one pile.Each of its piers should have been driven into a raw pile, which led to various unevenness of the bridge.

Having said that, we sound like we are thinking carefully and terribly.This bridge is hundreds of meters long, and there are no less than a dozen piers. In this way, there are more than a dozen people buried alive on the bridge.

In this way, it is not difficult to explain the unexpected situations that Pang Dahai and I encountered on the bridge.It is not easy for us to walk on such a yin bridge full of yin and qi.

As I said that, I also told Ma Di and Ouyang or listened to the strange things that Pang Haihai and I encountered when we crossed the bridge.

Ma Di nodded: "This is all expected. Ouyang or he also said that when the bridge was built, no living people were left behind."

"Isn't it for living people? Didn't it be used for military purposes? Then what is this bridge for..." I asked in surprise.

"Walking soldiers, walking Yin soldiers. He suspected that the military purpose of this bridge was that there might be alchemists or Taoists in the army who knew alchemy. They knew how to draw Yin soldiers to participate in the battle. So he built this bridge. The bridge is used to transport Yin soldiers across the water."

Chapter 741 Ghost Doctor

"This... sounds... a bit unbelievable." Listening to Ma Di's words, my scalp felt a little numb.

Ouyang also nodded: "Other than that, I really can't think of the purpose of this bridge."

"Then... what's the reason for those dead people we saw on the bridge?" I then asked.

"That's because you are living people. After staying on the Yin Bridge for a long time, you will develop a kind of obsession. This obsession is actually another kind of space. It may be something in the underworld, or it may be something in the yang world. , it may be your dream, or it may be your thoughts. In short, the situation is more complicated. What you see is a fragment of your mind. The people you see have all appeared in your mind However, it just happened to be intercepted. So if you see the stinky Taoist priest, it doesn't mean that he is dead like the others. Do you understand?"

Ma Di may have heard Ouyang or introduced the situation of this Yinqiao before, so the analysis is logical.Recently, he followed us around, gained a lot in metaphysics, and learned a lot.

A bridge where only Yin soldiers walk, but Pang Dahai and I walked from the beginning to the end.In fact, if it weren't for the fire-carrying paper cranes transformed into the fire soul talisman to guide the way, Fatty and I might not be able to walk down and be submerged in the lake.

Thinking about it, the two of us are bold enough, but now thinking about it, I still feel a little scared.

Ma Su pointed to Ouyang and said, "The rest was easy. The next night, he took me and Tie Zhu across the bridge and came to see you."

I questioned, "Did you run into any trouble when you crossed that Yin bridge?"

Ma Su pointed at Ouyang He with a smile, and said, "With you as a master, what trouble do you dare to provoke us?"

I nodded, Ouyang or's strength is unfathomable.So I'm not surprised they were able to cross the bridge safely.I guess those evil spirits are also bullying and fearing the hard. Seeing Ouyang or feeling his strong aura, it is too late to hide from him.

That Zhong Tianhai went in for a while, but there was no movement at all, and the door was tightly closed.

I thought that Fatty and I went there once before, and saw a lot of strange phenomena at that time.Seeing that door, I remembered it again, and couldn't help shivering.I hurriedly told Ma Su and Ouyang Or that Fatty and I went in to see those spliced ​​animals and a console, and asked, "This place is so strange, so who is this Zhong Tianhai? "

Ouyang Or was not surprised by what I said. When I asked him, he smiled and said: "He, that is a famous ghost doctor in Taoism. It is said that he has the art of bringing the dead back to life. Ghost doctor."

"Ghost doctor? This title sounds evil. It's quite similar to his strange temper."

Ouyang nodded and explained: "You can see the bone knife in his hand? If you look closely at the knife, there are eight characters engraved on the knife, which read: Heal people with spells, save souls with spells. Others call it ghost doctor , people can be healed in the yang world, and ghosts can be healed in the underworld. The knife can also cut the stubborn diseases of people, and it can also cut the sores of ghosts."

"Fuck, so powerful? No wonder we saw that his son was dying, but he was still rescueable. This is a powerful character. Mr. Ouyang, how did you meet him?" I asked curiously.

Ouyang smiled again: "I am called a fisherman in Taoism, so he called me a fisherman. And I call him a knife player. The two of us have become friends with each other and have dealt with each other several times. We really cherish each other. This is just a spiritual friendship." That's all."

I was deeply moved, if I hadn't followed my third uncle into this world, I would never have known that there were such strange people in the mountains and behind the prosperity.

During my visit this time, I met Ouyang He, a fisherman, and Zhong Tianhai, a ghost doctor, in succession, so it was a worthwhile trip.

I looked at the closed door and said, "So, his son is saved?"

Ouyang shook his head: "Not necessarily. Zhong Tianhai has worked hard for this, and there are not many things in the world that make him difficult. This time he is really in trouble. I hope he can snatch his son back from the gate of hell."

I thought about it for a while, and suddenly realized: "Yes, I know. I understand what happened to those spliced ​​animals. He was using those animals for experiments. His son's organs below the chest and body functions have all been destroyed. Tend to necrosis, he wants to use other people's body to splice with his son's intact body above the chest. It's like grafting, reshaping a person... this..."

When I said this, I was also taken aback by my own thought.This is a bit too bizarre to say.

Ma Di kept shaking his head while listening: "This... this is a bit against the laws of nature. From a scientific point of view, those spliced ​​animals you mentioned are completely impossible. They are all different species, whether it is the circulatory system or The respiratory system and so on are different. How could it be the same as plant grafting? Even if it is plant grafting, it must be divided into plant species..."

Ma Di frowned, with an expression of disbelief.Indeed, not to mention that Ma Di is well versed in biology, even I would think this situation is abnormal.But in fact, I saw it with my own eyes. Although the spliced ​​animals don't look very alive, at least they are still alive.

So I can only use Zhong Tianhai's amazing skills to explain it.

"Old Ma, if there is a chance, I will definitely let you see those spliced ​​animals. The fat man and I have seen it with our own eyes. There is absolutely no mistake."

Ma Di was still a little puzzled. He looked at the corpses covered with sheets on the surrounding beds, and asked, "Then, these people...are all the corpses he used for experiments? He couldn't be the one who killed them." Bar?"

Ouyang waved his hand: "This matter is definitely not the work of a ghost doctor. Although his actions are unpredictable and prone to deviations, most of the things he does are in the right way. Killing people for no reason...is impossible."

I nodded: "I suspect that these corpses are the people who died on the bus. I was also afraid of accidents, so I didn't dare to open it to take a look. Since you are here, we might as well take a look to make sure. "

Neither Ouyang or Ma Di had any opinions, but with Ouyang or here, I am no longer afraid of accidents.However, for the sake of caution, I still used the Subduing Dragon Wooden Sword to pick apart the blanket of the corpse next to me.

There was indeed a corpse underneath, an old man.He doesn't look scary though, because his grooming has been taken care of.It should have been carefully dressed, so he looked as if he was asleep except for his gray skin.

Chapter 742 The Legend of the Fire Fox

Immediately afterwards, I picked up the sheets covered by the other people.They are indeed all dead, and they are all the same as the old man, with neat appearance and relatively intact clothes.

As a result, my opinion of Zhong Tianhai has changed again.Undoubtedly, these corpses should all be handled by his hands. Letting the dead leave with dignity is the respect a dead person should have.

I counted, and there were nineteen corpses down here.The number should be somewhat different from the official statistics.Don't know where the others are now.It seems that Zhong Tianhai needs to come out of the inside to ask everything clearly.

At this time, Ouyang walked up to Pang Dahai who was still in a coma, opened the fat man's eyelids to look, and he stretched out his hand to press the back of Pang Dahai's head a few times.

Fat Dahai's eyelids twitched, and he finally woke up with an ouch.

The fragrance that Zhong Tianhai made us unconscious was very domineering, if it wasn't for Ouyang Yu, the fat man wouldn't know how long he would be unconscious.

Even though he woke up, Pang Dahai stared and rubbed his head in pain.I know he will definitely need some time to recover.

Ouyang glanced at me and asked: "Master, from what Zhong Tianhai said, you woke up quickly after a coma, it should be the effect of you taking Huolingsaliva. I am not very proficient in medicine, and this Huosingsaliva fruit has So effective?"

I nodded and said with a wry smile: "Speaking of which, I still have some adventures here..."

As I said that, I briefly told them what happened after we found Grandma Li's temple.

Of course, it's mainly the matter between me, the Fire Beaver King, and the group of cats and raccoons.After finishing speaking, I took out the Fire Foxtail that the Fire Fox King had given me, and showed them.

Ma Di took the fire raccoon tail, looked at it carefully, and muttered: "Could it be that the legend is true?"

I was taken aback for a moment, it seems that Ma Su should know something about this Huohutail.

"Old horse, do you know this fire fox tail?" I asked curiously.

Ma Di nodded: "I have been studying biological sciences. I told you that I don't think the species in the world are limited to those listed in books. In fact, there are many rare species in the world, just because we have not obtained more The exact chain of evidence, but there is no way to write it in the archives. Regarding the fire fox, it appears more in all the gods and ghosts and some legends."

"That is to say, in the confirmed animal files, there is such an animal as the fire raccoon?" I asked.

Ma Di nodded, then shook his head again: "These are two concepts. If fire raccoons are only distinguished by their coat color, then the world does not rule out raccoons with this coat color. Because there are some genetic mutations and DNA mutations. For example, normal tigers and leopards have yellow and patterned fur, but there are often some white tigers and snow leopards. This is caused by genetic mutations in their bodies. But these are exceptions, I feel that what you encounter Fire raccoons and white raccoons are not of this type."

"Then... which type is there?"

"There is also the legendary fire raccoon. According to "Qingben Xushen Weizhi", when Xu Xiake traveled around the world, he once saw a kind of fire raccoon in Taihua Ridge. At that time, the fire raccoon was trapped. Xu Xiake saved the fire raccoon. So the fire raccoon was grateful and followed Xu Xiake to travel to many places. I don’t know what method the fire raccoon used. Whenever Xu Xiake reached a mountain, the fire raccoon would always go Appearing from time to time, accompanied by Xu Xiake. Of course, this "Qingben Xushen Weizhi" is just a kind of ambition, and there is no such book in the library of the archives. So I can't judge whether the content recorded in it is true."

We listened to Ma Di talking about the legend about the fire raccoon. Apart from having a strong interest in this kind of fire raccoon, we were also overwhelmed by Ma Di's profound knowledge.

Even if it is a legend, if it is said by Ma Di, I believe it is not just nonsense, but more authentic.Because he can find the source of every legend, and he can use it to quote scriptures.

I then asked: "What else did the legend say? About the fire fox?"

Ma Di went on to say: "Later Xu Xiake did research on this kind of fire raccoon, and he found that this kind of fire raccoon has the attributes of a king. That is to say, the fire raccoon has been a king since the moment it was born. Several times, Xu Xiake traveled to mountains and rivers and was trapped in the valley. It was the Huo Li Wang who ordered other raccoons to bring him wild fruits to satisfy his hunger. And raccoons are very capable of survival and reproduction. Not weak, so there are raccoons in many places in the mountains. After that, every time Xu Xiake encounters difficulties, the fire raccoon king will appear to help him. It's just that the ending of the legend is not so good. During a hike in the mountains, Xu Xiake encountered an evil tiger, and the fire raccoon king led all the mountain raccoons to fight the tiger. Although he killed the evil tiger, the fire raccoon king was seriously injured. With the last of his strength, the fire raccoon king bit off his tail , gave the Huoxtail to Xu Xiake. Afterwards, Xu Xiake took the Huoxtail with him. Whenever he went to a place, he just took out the Huoxtail, and he could call the Beaver to help him find the way, find food, etc. Of course, this paragraph It is said that I only remembered a general idea, and I did not expect that one day I would see this kind of fire fox tail."

After listening to Ma Di's introduction, I feel that the legendary Xu Xiake's experience is somewhat similar to mine.Could it be that the Fire Beaver King I met is really the legendary one?

In fact, with the fire raccoon tail in my hand, those raccoons did bow down to me.If this is the case, then this fire fox tail is really a treasure.

Ma Su returned the fire raccoon tail to me and said: "It is said that the reason why the fire raccoon king is king is because of this fire raccoon tail. It will only cut off its tail when its life is in danger. According to what you said, it cut off its tail to send you off, and then it left on its own, presumably it should be dead by this time."

I nodded, I felt the same way.It's just that the fire raccoon king is quite human, and he is so sincere to me.I saved it, and it saved me in turn, not only feeding me its fire spirit saliva, but also leaving me the fire fox tail.I paid three points, but it returned me ten points.I am very saddened by its death.

Ouyang heard this, and said: "Congratulations, master, for obtaining this treasure. In the future, in the mountains and forests, when you encounter danger, you can give it a try. The fire spirit saliva is also extraordinary. I also heard that the fire raccoon king is a spiritual creature, good at cultivation. If there is no external damage, it can live for a hundred years. And the saliva of the Fire Beaver King will turn into liquid in ten years and saliva in a hundred years. It seems that the Fire Beaver King has at least a hundred years of life. The power of cultivation. Practitioners who eat it can practice for a hundred years. Although this statement is exaggerated, it is still credible."

Chapter 743 Patching the Human Body

I also understand Ouyang's or Wen Cran's.He said that this fire spirit is not easy to make. Ordinary people can prolong their life if they eat it, and those who practice it can grow their practice for a hundred years.This may be a bit of an exaggeration, but I think it's also believable.

From the words of the two of them, I concluded that I have taken the fire spirit saliva and held the fire raccoon tail, so I can try to summon the raccoons in the forest in the future.This will be of great help to us when we go out into the mountains and forests in the future.

We stayed here, finished chatting with the Fire Fox King, and Pang Haihai also recovered at this time.He rubbed his temples, walked over and asked, "Damn it, this head looks like it's been filled with lead. By the way, old horse, when you came, did you pass the raccoon temple?"

After the fat man said this, I just remembered that there is such a thing.It is also because we have encountered too many things that I actually forgot this clue.

As for clues, this is the biggest clue in Grandma Li's temple.Because there is third uncle's tattered Taoist robe hanging inside.

But when the fat man asked, Ma Su shook his head and said, "What is Grandma Li's temple? We haven't seen any temple. I followed Ouyang or and found you here."

Ouyang also said: "That's right, I followed that Danqiu kid to find here."

I nodded, that Danqiu kid also rescued me in that pit, and was caught on fire later.Although he was rescued, he disappeared later.

Hearing what Ouyang said, I knew he should be fine, and I brought them here later.

Pang Dahai and I told about how we found the raccoon grandma's temple.It mainly describes the strange gong and the third uncle's tattered Taoist robe covering it.

Ma Di was a little excited when he heard it, but then said sadly: "The tattered Taoist robe of the stinky Taoist priest never leaves his body, why is it hanging there?"

Ouyang may have heard it, but was also a little surprised: "Master said, there is a gong hanging in the temple, the gong has a ghost face, and the mallet is a bone?"

I nodded: "Yes, it's that kind of gong, it looks quite creepy."

Ouyang smiled wryly and said: "That's natural, this gong is a ghost face gong, and the gong is a bone mallet."

Pang Dahai and I glanced at each other, this time we learned about the name Ghost Mian Gong from Ouyang or the mouth, and the name is very appropriate when I think of it.At that time, we didn't know the origin of the gong, and it was also called the ghost face gong.I just don't know what is the use of the ghost face gong and bone mallet?

"Mr. Ouyang, what is that ghost face gong used for?" Pang Dahai asked curiously.

Ouyang explained: "Ghost face gongs have the ability to command Yin soldiers. On the ancient battlefields of our country, there was a rule that when drums are struck, one advances, and when gongs are played, one retreats. It is also one of the military orders. The sound of gongs and drums on the battlefield is the Orders, those who disobey the orders shall be beheaded. However, in the underworld, the Yin soldiers fight, it is the opposite. To beat the drums, they will retreat. Therefore, in Taoism, the ghost face gong and the bone mallet are the tools for summoning Yin soldiers. use."

"The one who summoned the Yin soldiers? How could there be such a ghost face in that temple?" I couldn't help asking.

Ouyang thought for a while, and then said: "As the master said, the raccoon grandma's temple should be a place where yin and yang are in harmony, and a place where people and ghosts gather. Yin soldiers are dedicated to the yin department, even if they are alchemists and Taoists who are good at Taoism. Perhaps it is impossible to recruit Yin soldiers at will, and it can only be achieved more easily in such a place of Yin and Yang."

I nodded and continued: "According to your thinking, that Yin bridge was built in ancient times for walking Yin soldiers. Then the Li Grandma Temple should also be built at the same time, and it is also the place where Yin soldiers reside. Since ordinary people here are usually not able to pass by, the temple of Grandma Li is still intact. It was not so peaceful until Uncle San and us came here. In other words, it is we who disturbed the cleanliness of this place. gone."

Ouyang probably shook his head: "I'm afraid this is not a clean place, but a place where evil spirits and ghosts are mixed together."

Pang Dahai asked: "Then the mysterious village you mentioned, do you mean this place?"

Ouyang waved his hand: "It's definitely not this place. The village I mentioned must be inhabited. This place is barren, and although it is full of yin, it is different from what I feel."

I nodded, it seems that this is not the mysterious village Ouyang said.When we found this place, we didn't look in the right direction, but found the third uncle's robe by accident.Encountered so many bizarre and strange incidents again.

Now that we have found the third uncle's clue, we also want to follow this clue.But even Ouyang didn't know where to go next.Because we can't be sure whether the third uncle went to the mysterious village, and whether we still need to find out the village.

At this moment, suddenly I heard the sound of opening the door from the side.

That was the wooden door, the wooden door that led to the chamber with the console and the animals.
