Temple of Madness

The waiter nodded and left. After breakfast, Zhang Yang bought a map of Linhai City alone at the newspaper office below.

The map is relatively detailed. It basically records all the places in Linhai City, even some small shops. Maybe it will be updated every once in a while. In this respect, Linhai City has indeed done a good job, allowing those outsiders or It is tourists who can be self-sufficient.

Then Zhang Yang saw that Xiandu County was in the corner of Linhai City, and Gaizhu Mountain was in the center of Xiandu County. This geographical location was a bit strange. Why was Xiandu County built around Gaizhu Mountain?Instead of saying that it is built on the mountain?
Gaizhu Mountain is known as one of the 72 blessed places, and it must have its unique features. This mountain looks like a continuous stretch, and it is indeed a rather large mountain range. The tomb of the ancient family can be placed here. Maybe there is a powerful ancestor in his ancestors maybe.

Zhang Yang put away the map, and he began to slowly calculate in his mind. Gaizhu Mountain is 760 meters above sea level. This height is already considered very high for ordinary mountains. From the perspective of the terrain, there is a sunken basin in the center of the mountain range. , according to the map, there is a lake in the center of the basin, which is a tourist attraction. However, due to the low quality of tourists over the years, this scenic spot has been completely destroyed.

So it has to be closed temporarily, and it will be reopened when the ecology recovers. Then the problem comes, the steepness of this mountain is very high, and there is no other way to go up the mountain except for the slow road up the mountain. And the trees on the mountain are also very strong, there may be some ferocious wild animals infested at a little deeper, and there will be no one guarding it, let alone tourists going deep there.

So the tomb of the Gu family is likely to be in the depths, otherwise it would have been discovered and preserved long ago, but Zhang Yang in the basin has never thought about it, who would bury the tomb in the water?

After Gu once got up, Zhang Yang drove to Xiandu County with him.

The prosperity of Xiandu County is also not low, comparable to the downtown of Linhai City. This is all due to the beauty of Gaizhu Mountain, which drives the whole place.

There is a very special customs here, that is, on the night of the full moon, everyone will wear white clothes and wander on the street. At this time, you can’t speak aloud, you can only wander on the street. It is said that this time period The ancestors will come to the world and bless them. If they speak, they will probably alarm the ancestors and let them escape.

These are all superstitions, but no matter what, the fact that this custom can be passed down for so long can also explain its role in it. If you point it out, it can actually be used as a manifestation of cohesion. It must be a kind of enjoyment to let go of all messy thoughts, put aside work and troubles, and enjoy this quiet moment quietly.

After arriving in Xiandu County, the place is covered with long white strips, and there are many inside and outside the store. Because tomorrow is the night of the full moon, everyone is starting to prepare.

"Master, where do we get off?" Zhang Yang asked.

"Go to build Bamboo Mountain first."

Gaizhu Mountain is in the center of Xiandu County, no taxi driver does not know it, and the two soon arrived at their destination.

There is a plaque at the foot of Gaizhu Mountain, which says precautions, but there are few people on Gaizhu Mountain today. The control personnel here are a little bored and sit in their seats all day in a daze or play with their mobile phones to pass the time.

No way, who made the center of Gaizhushan Basin banned?Other places are not allowed to enter, so the number of tourists here has also decreased sharply.

After spending 40 yuan, the two bought tickets to enter it. Zhang Yang obviously felt that the spiritual power here became more and more intense during the process of going up the mountain.

"Master, why is this place called Gaizhu Mountain?" Zhang Yang asked.

"This place used to be covered with densely packed huge bamboos, so dense that it was like a pot full of bamboos, covering the mountain, but there was a fire here a few hundred years ago, and nothing happened. " Gu once shook his head and said.

Hundreds of years ago?Could it be the time of the war?
Zhang Yang thought of this point, but didn't say it out, and continued to go up the mountain. The steps here are very small, and at most only two people are allowed to pass together, but there are handrails around, and the safety measures are still good.

It is said that there are a total of 99 steps up the mountain, but many people just climb to the middle of the mountain and give up, because if they go further up, not to mention the hard work, the oxygen is getting less and less, so the average person only climbs up to the 99th. Take a rest on the platform after the [-] steps to take pictures and watch the scenery below.

But Zhang Yang doesn't feel tired at all. His current physical fitness is not to say 99, even if it is 99, there is no problem at all, but he is a little worried about Gu once. People, although their foundation is still there, after all, they are getting older.

"Master, shall I carry you?" Zhang Yang said.

"What are you carrying? Could it be that I can't even climb these steps?" Panting for breath, Gu Zeng choked out such a sentence, then held on to the handrail, and began to breathe heavily.

Now that the oxygen here has started to decrease, Zhang Yang put Gu on his back without saying a word, and continued to climb up step by step, there are still hundreds of steps to the top.

"I'm old and useless." Gu Zeng was a little sad. He never thought that he could jump tens of meters high in one leap when he was majestic, but now, it seems so difficult to climb a few steps.

Time is everyone's greatest enemy, it will not destroy you directly, but use gentle means, when you can't see him, slowly, bit by bit kill your life, unknowingly, when you When you come to your senses and realize it, you find that you are almost seventy years old and your vitality is gone.

"Master, what are you afraid of? Don't you still have me?" Zhang Yang said.

Leaning on Zhang Yang's back, Gu once felt very stable. In fact, he really wanted a grandson like Zhang Yang. The granddaughter was not bad, but he still wanted to pass on his bloodline, and the incense continued.

But by accident, it's not too bad to accept such an apprentice.

Relief flashed in Gu Once's eyes, it seemed that his apprentice was not mistaken, and the only thing he could do right in his life was to match up with Zhang Yang.

After reaching the peak, Gu once's breathing was obviously more rapid, Zhang Yang frowned, he seemed a little worried, after all, the oxygen content here is a bit low, although there is a lot of spiritual energy, but the body functions are obviously not resolved by spiritual energy.
