4703 - Two Finger Peaks

When the group reached the foot of Ziwei Mountain, the carriage could not go up the mountain, so Zuo Junmo handed over the carriage and the other two horses to the guards accompanying him, and the group of four went up the mountain on foot.

Looking back last time, it was the first month, and this time it is late autumn, and the scenery in the mountains is very different.

Half of the hills are almost dyed red by maple leaves, looking like clumps of burning flames from a distance.

"Ziwei mountain, I thought it was named after the crape myrtle flower. From this point of view, it is more appropriate to call it Maple Leaf Mountain!" On the way up the mountain, Yang Ruoqing, who had enjoyed the scenery all the way, expressed his feelings.

Zuo Junmo led the way, turned his head and smiled at her when he heard the words, and said: "The name of Ziwei Mountain comes from the Ziwei star in the sky. According to legend, the magician who practiced Taoism in Ziwei Cave was also named Ziwei Cave. People, also known as the Venerable Ziwei Cave."

Ziwei cave people?

Yang Ruoqing suddenly thought of the pictures of cavemen she saw in her textbook, and almost laughed out loud.

Fortunately, Chen'er's words diverted Zuo Junmo's attention, and he pointed to the front and sighed: "At first, I thought that Mianniu Mountain, hundreds of miles away, was the one with the most peaks and steepest cliffs in our area. The strange peaks are steep and steep."

Everyone followed Chen'er's guidance and looked not far away, and they really saw two cliffs facing each other, reaching straight into the sky.

"Wow, these two cliffs are really weird. At first glance, it feels like two plates are squeezed directly from the plate under the ground. It's too dangerous, and it's almost going to the sky." Yang Ruoqing looked up. Nodding.

Zuo Junmo said: "The locals call it Two Fingers Peak."

Two Fingers?
Yang Ruoqing raised her two fingers and gestured, hey, it really looks like it!
"No one has been able to go up these two finger peaks so far, and it is meaningless to go up, because apart from bare stones, they are still stones. However, under these two finger peaks, there are people who are not afraid of death to explore." Zuo Junmo's voice sounded again.

"Uncle Zuo, father, mother, I want to visit Two Fingers Peak, can I?" Chen'er said suddenly.

Seeing his shining eyes, the three adults did not refuse.

Now that they are all up the mountain, it is natural not to spoil the children's interest.

"Okay." Yang Ruoqing nodded gently.

Zuo Junmo put his arms around Chen'er's shoulders, and walked towards Two Fingers Peak. Luo Fengtang came over and grabbed Yang Ruoqing's hand, and followed behind.

Zuo Junmo turned into a tour guide and introduced Two Fingers Peak to everyone while walking. Soon everyone came to Two Fingers Peak and could not go any further because there was a steep cliff ahead.

"These two peaks are like two fingers resting on the cliff, and they gather more and more as they go up, which reminds me of my sister gesturing to me with scissors." Standing on the edge of the cliff, the mountain wind is strong, Chen'er smiled and said, his eyes were as bright as stars.

Zuo Junmo smiled and patted Chen'er on the shoulder lightly.

Chen'er looked down at the bottomless Yadi, surrounded by white mist, "Uncle Zuo, has anyone ever gone down here?"

Zuo Junmo said: "There are herb pickers who are brave, careful and skilled, but they can't go down to the end. The herb pickers said that the lower you go, the lower the visibility. All kinds of thorns and vines make it difficult to walk. Snakes, mice, ants Rampant, the miasma is deep."

"Spiders as big as bowls, centipedes as long as chopsticks, mice as big as cats..."

"Hiss!" Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but gasped.

She is not afraid of the dead, but she is afraid of mice.

No matter how big it is, as long as it is a mouse, even hamsters are afraid of it.

Luo Fengtang put his arms around Yang Ruoqing's shoulders to comfort him.

From the corner of Zuo Junmo's eyes, seeing the two people here, he suddenly remembered Yang Ruoqing's fear of mice, and a trace of shame flashed across his eyes.

"Uncle Zuo, go on, is there anything weird and weird at the end of the day?"

For Chen'er, who has a great spirit of adventure, what kind of mice, centipedes and snakes are nothing to fear.

Zuo Junmo showed a trace of hesitation, and couldn't help looking at Yang Ruoqing again.

Yang Ruoqing hurriedly said: "Brother Zuo, I'm fine, you continue to talk about yours, and Tang Yazi and I are also very interested."

Zuo Junmo pondered for a while, and said: "What kind of strange things are there in Yadi? Uncle really can't tell. Maybe someone has seen it, but the people who have seen it have never come up again."

"A long time ago, I heard that someone went down to collect herbs, and the herbs growing down the Yabi became rarer, and there were even blood ganoderma."

"According to the mouth of the herbal collectors, it is said that there is a kind of tree in Yadi that can eat people."

Hearing this, Chen'er smiled, although his eyes were full of surprise, but the young and vigorous he obviously didn't believe that there are trees that can eat people in this world.

If it is said that sharks can eat people, and whales can swallow people and boats together, he believes it without hesitation, because he has witnessed it with his own eyes at sea, and he is a master at hunting whales!

Trees eat people?
What to eat?Do trees have mouths?

How to digest and excrete after eating?

Thinking of this series of questions, Chen'er smiled and shook his head lightly, and did not argue with Zuo Junmo, this was his demeanor and respect for his elders.

Zuo Junmo also knew that Chen'er didn't believe it, but in fact, why didn't he himself?
However, Luo Fengtang and Yang Ruoqing behind them looked at each other, and they both saw the same thing in each other's eyes.

Both of them choose to believe!

As for the reason, it is very simple. When they went back to explore the tomb of the female emperor, they experienced many things beyond the norm, such as eyeless piranhas, such as the souls of children locked in the ghost tower...

Worlds, full of wonders.

"Whether it's true or not, we must be careful when we go to the tomb later," Luo Fengtang said.

Everyone nodded.

Luo Fengtang focused on Chen'er again, and said in a deep voice: "Today is to bring you to practice, don't be negligent, and be careful when sailing for ten thousand years."

Chen'er quickly restrained her face and stood up straight, "Yes!"

Yang Ruoqing took a look at the sky, it was fine, the sun had just risen in the east, so she suggested: "Let's go into the cave!"

Everyone nodded, and then went straight to Ziwei Cave without further delay.

From the outside, Ziwei Cave is really a very inconspicuous hole, which can accommodate three grown men like Luo Fengtang walking side by side.

After entering the cave, there is something different inside.

There are rough stone steps under the feet, and the stone steps are winding down. On both sides are all kinds of grotesque natural stalactites, some with teeth and claws, or enchanting and charming, like a bizarre world.

The further you go in, everything outside is far behind, and the inside becomes more and more quiet, so quiet that you can even hear the sound of water dripping on the stone.

"This place is indeed suitable for cultivating the Tao, away from the turmoil of the mundane world, and pure in mind." Chen'er said excitedly.

This is the first time he has come to such a place, and everything he sees is quite novel. Occasionally, he will stop and reach out to touch the smooth and cool stone lightly, sighing in his heart the wonder of the Creator.

"Qing'er, Chen'er, the front is a little wet and slippery, be careful where you step."

Zuo Junmo, who was leading the way, turned his head to remind him.
