Sumu wood in the quadrangle welcomes spring

Su Mu turned the car around and drove back for a while.

After checking and finding that Shirley Yang could no longer see him, he waved his hand and put the Ford Mustang into the space.

He swung his legs again and moved diagonally to the side of the mountain.

So when Su Mu stood on the narrow path and shouted to Shirley Yang, Shirley Yang was surprised.

In fact, Su Mu was just taking a shortcut.

It’s not hard to understand.

There is no need to climb up and then flip down.

Shirley Yang is very professional both in climbing and swimming.

After all, they are elites who have undergone training in the Marine Corps training camp in the United States.

In addition, Shirley Yang's grandfather, Partridge Whistle, trained her since she was a child.

I know a little bit about the internal breathing technique.

The two met and were not far from the shore.

A ferry happened to pass by in the distance.

Su Mu pulled out a big black ten from his pocket and used the small internal energy technique to gather energy into a line.

"Hey, fellow, come over here and give us a ride. Ten dollars. Ten dollars."

Su Mu shouted three times in a row.

Finally, I could see with my naked eyes that the ferry had adjusted its direction.

It was coming towards the direction of Su Mu and Shirley Yang.

It's nice to have money.

Su Mu and Shirley Yang looked at each other and saw mischievous smiles in each other's eyes.

"Honey, is there anything to eat?"

Shirley Yang asked abruptly.

"What to eat?"

Su Mu did not comment and asked her back.

"I want to eat braised beef in soy sauce."

"Once we're on the boat, I'll feed you secretly."

"Okay."

The ferry docked, but couldn't get close to the shore.

The boatman seemed accustomed to this.

"Sir, where's the money? Let me see it. Is it really ten dollars?"

Su Mu raised the big black ten in his hand.

The other party looked at it and nodded.

His attitude also became enthusiastic: "Wait a moment, I'll get you a ladder."

Probably some ladders were placed on the side of the ship and on the mountain for them to climb over.

"no need."

Su Mu waved his hand, put his arm around Shirley Yang's waist, trotted two steps, and jumped directly.

At a distance of more than four meters, Su Mu, hugging a woman, actually jumped over.

Even to outsiders, it seems unusually relaxed and carefree.

There were some passengers on the boat who were chattering, but they were all shocked by Su Mu's ability.

For a brief moment, the boat seemed to have entered a vacuum.

Silence fell.

The boatman saw that Su Mu was not an ordinary person, so his flattering smile became even wider and his attitude became more polite.

However, Great Unity still accepted it.

I didn't mean to refuse.

It is only natural to collect money and sell tickets when carrying passengers on a boat.

What's the big deal?

The boatman took two stools from the back and handed them to Sumu.

"You two are lucky to have arrived. If it hadn't been for the heavy rains in the past few days, the Yellow River would have overflowed and the water level would have risen. Given where you two are standing, it would have been impossible to pull it up..."

The few passengers crossing the river nearby also responded with a smile.

"Yes, yes, the captain is not taking advantage of the situation. There are floods in several places."

"We just stopped over there... We're risking our lives to pick someone up mid-journey."

"Eh? I don't understand this. Why risk your life?"

Su Mu didn't react yet, and Shirley Yang was unhappy.

"Big sister, in weather like this, I'm afraid the water god will be angry. If you don't buy tickets at the ferry and get on the boat midway, we will also be taking risks."

"Where did the water god or river god come from? This is all feudal superstition."

Shirley Yang refuted righteously.

The passengers hadn't said anything yet, but after hearing Shirley Yang's remarks, the captain quit.

At this moment, he was not facing Su Mu directly, and the men from northern Shaanxi were not that afraid of a woman.

"This is not made up. Let me tell you, one year, the rain came down quickly and receded quickly, and a particularly large fish skeleton was washed ashore. We boatmen and those who make a living on both sides of the river all believed that this was the incarnation of the river god. We even gave it a name, Iron-Headed Dragon King."

"At that time, no one dared to dispose of the Dragon King's body casually, so they thought of using its bones to build a temple, but the fishermen at that time could not afford that much money."

"At this time, as luck would have it, a foreign businessman happened to come. After hearing about this, he took the initiative to pay for the construction of the Fishbone Temple to bless this place with good weather and good harvests."

“Has the temple been built?”

Shirley Young asked.

"It must have been built. It's been many years and it's still there."

"where?"

Su Mu's heart moved, and he interrupted and asked. Seeing Shirley Yang turning her head to look at him with a strange look, he explained with a smile.

"If you have time, let's stop by for a visit."

The captain thought for a moment and said, "The temple is there, but it's in the valley of the Qinling Mountains. Even if I tell you this, I can't tell you how to get there. If you're really interested, just ask around. Almost all the locals know where it is."

The topic comes to an end.

Su Mu and Shirley Yang found an empty space next to the boat, set up their stools and sat down.

"Can fish bones really be used to build a temple?"

"The Fishbone Temple is not rare. I first heard of it in Tianjin. It's not a rare thing. They use fish bones as beams and fish heads as temple doors to worship the Dragon King."

An old man wearing dark glasses was leaning on a cane and smiling, saying, "In those days, there were many merchants traveling for business. They had to travel through mountains and rivers, and sail across rivers in the wind and sun. Supporting the fishermen to build temples and worship them can also give you peace of mind and bring yourself some blessings."

"So will this temple be useful after it's built?"

Shirley Yang asked curiously again.

She was very curious about this kind of thing and had never been exposed to it before, so she was very interested.

"It's strange to say, since the temple was built, it has never been effective. It rains when it's supposed to rain, and it's dry when it's not supposed to rain. There has never been any disaster. At that time, the fishermen were planning to find the businessman and ask if he had miscalculated the Feng Shui..."

"That businessman knows Feng Shui? Did he calculate the location of the temple himself?"

"you do not say."

Several passengers and the captain also came over to chat.

Obviously, they themselves are also very interested in this topic.

After the reform and opening up.

Although it is a remote place now, it is still influenced by feudal ideas.

It's also good to have a boat.

The passengers coming and going.

More knowledge than the locals.

Naturally, I don't worry so much.

It's like listening to funny stories that kill time.

Shirley Yang saw Su Mu narrowing his eyes slightly.

Like this isn't surprising at all.

I couldn't help but push him.

The way American girls act coquettishly is very different from that of local wives.

Actually, well, what...

He is quite cool.

"Honey, what's wrong?"

"Don't you find it strange?"

"Strange? What's so curious about this?"

"What if the Fishbone Temple here is different from the one in Tianjin?"

Shirley Yang thought that Su Mu was not interested in talking about this topic because he thought they were all the same.

actually not.

Su Mu pursed his lips.

I looked closely at the old man wearing sunglasses.

I just skimmed over this topic.

He brought it up again in a few words.

Who knows whether it was intentional or unintentional.

Let me just talk about it.

Try your best to see if there are any.

"It must be different. There is something strange about this fish bone temple."

"Something strange? What's strange?"

Whether it was Shirley Yang or the captain, it seemed that except for the old man with glasses, everyone else was attracted by Su Mu.

"Think about it, the merchants funded the construction of this fish bone temple so that fishermen can worship the Dragon King and protect the fishermen near this area of ​​water. But they didn't build the temple in a crowded place, let alone on the shore. If the Dragon King wants to enjoy the incense here, he has to climb ashore and go to the valley of Qinling Mountains... It's unreasonable."

It's totally unreasonable.

Building a fishbone temple in a deep mountain with ravines and gullies is not in line with the theory of feng shui.

In other words, Hu Bayi was not there. If Hu Bayi was present, it would not be Su Mu's turn to say these words.

Shirley Yang pondered for a moment and had a sudden realization.

"So, who do you think he is?"

"Anyway, he's not a businessman. I think he's probably a tomb robber who's set his sights on the ancient tombs under the Fishbone Temple or nearby."

How many noble princes are buried in the valley of Qinling Mountains.

There are too many to count.

Digging a hole may lead to a temple.

Didn’t our group come here with the intention of targeting Li Chunfeng’s temple?

The nonsense of 'the officials are allowed to set fires but the common people are not allowed to light lamps' does not apply now.

In the 1980s, the distinction between archaeology and tomb robbing was not so clear.

In the eyes of the common people here, they are all grave diggers.

"Are you saying that the businessman built this temple to cover up his tracks?"

Shirley Yang blurted out, and then found that Su Mu was looking at her with a smile, without blinking.

Then I thought, isn’t that what I do?

Is this an exposure of my past deeds?

She clenched her fists in shame and anger and dropped Su Mu's shoulder.

It didn't hurt, but the dog food was so scattered that everyone in the group felt a little annoyed.

boom!

The ferry was hit hard.

There was a little kid leaning against the side of the boat, clinging to the edge and looking into the river. If his father hadn't reached out quickly, the kid would have almost fallen in.

Boom!

Boom!

Suddenly, several thunder-like roars rang out in the clear sky.

Then, the sky darkened visibly and small raindrops fell.

Then the wind started to blow again.

The wind is getting stronger.

The raindrops also changed from fine to crackling.

It turned into a heavy rain, pouring down.

"This God has the face of a three-year-old baby. He changes his face at any time."

Su Mu heard what the old man with sunglasses said.

Finding it interesting, I looked in his direction.

The old man remained calm and composed, knowing there was nowhere to hide from the pouring rain.

He actually took out a thumb-thick hemp rope and started tying himself to the cabin door handle...

This old man is quite interesting.

"It's them! They are the ones who provoked the Dragon King and caused this..."

boom!

boom!

The side of the ship was constantly hit.

It was raining heavily and the ship was knocked all over the place by huge objects in the water.

Everyone fell into great fear.

"Yes, that's them. Get them out of here."

"Hurry and send them off."

"Hurry up, if it's any later we'll have to go feed the Dragon King together."

Someone was staggering towards Su Mu and Shirley Yang.

There was also a guy with a fat face who wanted to take the opportunity to grab Shirley Yang's cheek.

Maybe he has some unfriendly and dirty intentions.

boom!

The hull was not hit.

There was a faint smell of gunpowder rising, but it was immediately diluted and dispersed by the rain.

"what!"

The man with the ferocious face covered his outstretched right hand.

The pinky and ring fingers are missing.

The area connected to the palm was pierced by a bullet and exploded.

Su Mu wrapped his index finger around the gun, turned it around gracefully, and blew twice at the barrel.

There was heavy rain and storm on board.

boom!

Another sound of being hit by an underwater object was heard.

Some people on the boat were surprised, while others screamed in fear.

But no one dared to face Su Mu anymore.

There was no longer any voice suggesting that Su Mu and Shirley Yang should be kicked off the boat.

At this moment, even the big man with a face full of flesh was timidly and guiltily glancing at Su Mu.

Or to be more precise, it was the gun in Su Mu's hand.

boom!

The ship shook again.

The fat man was holding a wound with one hand and had no fixed seat, so he was bumped against the side of the boat. His chest swayed against the edge of the boat and he almost fell off.

He became so frightened that he let go of the arm that was pressing on the wound and grabbed the arm next to it.

That was the child's arm just now.

The child was in his father's arms, and he never expected that someone on the boat would snatch his child away.

In a moment of carelessness, the child in her arms was pulled away and was about to be thrown into the river.

boom!

There was another gunshot.

The muscular man stood there in a daze, then as the boat swayed, he staggered two steps and fell to the side.

My lower back was against the edge of the boat, so I didn't feel any pressure.

Or rather, he was bleeding from his chest and had no strength left.

All the strength in my body was dissipating quickly.

Pfft!

The fat man fell headfirst into the river.

The surging river water went from surging to wavy and then to calm almost at the moment the fat man fell into the water.

The rainstorm stopped abruptly, the dark clouds dispersed, and the sky became clear again.

From beginning to end, it took no more than five minutes.

"Ugh."

A sigh that seemed both understanding and helpless.

Su Mu turned his head and saw an old man wearing sunglasses shaking his head slightly and methodically starting to untie layer after layer of knots.

Everyone on the boat looked pale.

There are a few people who still dare not look directly at Su Mu and Shirley Yang.

Some people wanted to look over here, but they were timid and only dared to glance over here out of the corner of their eyes.

They were shocked by the fact that Su Mu had a gun and dared to kill people, and they were also terrified by the "blood sacrifice" of the Yellow River and the "miracle" of calm afterwards.

I’m afraid that most of the people on this boat won’t dare to take a boat again for a long time.

I wonder what this old man with glasses would think.

Most likely he is not afraid.

If there is a chance, he will continue to board the boat and cross the river.

"Huh, what on earth was that thing down there just now? Could it really be the Dragon King?"

There was still an inexplicable emotion in Shirley Yang's eyes.

Personally experienced the extraordinary weather, rainstorms and underwater conditions of the Yellow River.

I want to stubbornly adhere to materialism and abandon theism.

But another voice stopped her.

Tell her what she sees is what she gets.

What you learned before is not necessarily true.

"Not long after I was discharged from the army, I remember when I was preparing for the Fifth Special Service Division, a large turtle was discovered in the Yellow River Basin."

"Big turtle? How big?"

"A tortoise shell has thorns, and the smallest thorn is about the same size as you."

Su Mu pointed at Shirley Yang and said calmly: "Climb about three floors high..."

Shirley Yang's eyes were a little empty: "Impossible, I don't believe it."

"Well, I didn't believe it until I saw it."
