Chapter 234: Living by the Eye and Dying by the Eye

Although we know that trapped in the top of the giant statue, although it can support a moment, but no matter how to support a lifetime, is planning countermeasures, but I did not expect those poisonous snakes to come so fast, especially the mouth from time to time dripping red saliva of the serpent, in front of the body behind with ten steps of poisonous mist, not to mention let it bite, is a little close to it, I am afraid that it is also difficult to avoid poisoning and death, we had to avoid its sharpness, and quickly fled to the statue of the giant exposed half of the head on the outside. We had to avoid it, and quickly fled to the half head of the statue that was exposed outside.

I dragged Shirley Yang’s arm to run, but she still on the wall of the mark is not forgotten, said that it is a by many martyrs, the “evil Luo Hai City” carried out by the evil curse, I said to Shirley Yang now which still have the time to care about these, run half a step slower to let the snake bite to death, there are any words and so on to the top of the words to say again. I said to Shirley Yang, “I don’t have time to care about this now.

Taking advantage of the black snakes scramble to squeeze in the short time, I followed the fat man and others, fled to the top, feel the cold wind on the face of the high place, there is no way to escape, due to the giant statue of the fall of half, so here is equivalent to the exposed half of the cross-section of the grotto, the grotto of the wall is uneven, there is no suitable stone slabs can be used to block snakes, the fat man bulged out all the muscles and bones, make the milk force, will be a section from the wall of the stone spoiled. The stone block that had fallen from the wall was pushed towards the entrance of the upcoming cave.

In the stone is about to seal the hole in a moment, only to see two black snakes like two fast arrows off the string, hard black scales tore through the air, issued a “whoosh” two low and swift sound, from below to come up, this black snake short and thick, very strong and powerful, the use of the body ejection of the force, you can leap out of the air a few meters away. Distance, the incoming force is incomparable, tactical spotlights before the black shake, the viper has already flown to the front.

Due to the narrow terrain at the top of the giant statue, five people are divided into four weeks, I am worried that shooting will hurt their own people, and if you can’t completely kill the two vipers at the same time under the strike, once the two snakes that come and go like the wind, we are bound to casualties in the people, in a hurry, had to casually lift up a backpack on the ground as a shield, lifted in front of the first block, the mouth of those two black snakes biting at the same time on the backpack! I don’t wait for the two black snakes to let go of their mouths and fall to the ground, I threw the backpack down from a high altitude, the backpack hanging two black snakes fell from the darkness, after half a day, only to hear the sound of the landing up along the mountain wall.

At this time the fat man has pushed the stone completely blocked the entrance, see I threw the backpack down, anxious stomping feet: “Old Hu your broken bag on nothing you how not to throw? Favor to throw my, now can be good, the remaining a little spirit turtle shell and first aid medicines, oxygen bottles, gas masks, and half of the fish did not finish eating, this is all finished …… but if we can still go down, maybe there is still a chance to pick it back up.” Said let me help him to move all the nearby stones, are piled up in the entrance, even if it can block a few minutes is also good, think of those ferocious vipers, feel weak legs and stomach, the threat we encountered in our lives, to this can be instantly to the death of the black snake for the most.

Although the momentum of the snakes was temporarily curbed, but our situation is not better at all, being in a place of great heights and dangers, that is, born with a bear’s heart and tiger’s guts, it is impossible not to be afraid, the fat man simply dared to look at their own feet, a glance does not dare to look down, Shirley Yang looked at the side of the wreckage of the wall out of focus, Ah Xiang has been awakened from a deep sleep, and also closed his eyes, I do not know if she was afraid of heights, or afraid of! Seeing this giant statue full of martyrs resentment, Uncle Ming is like ashes, kneeling on the ground with eyes closed, just can’t stop chanting: “Great mercy and great compassion to save the suffering of Guanyin Bodhisattva …….”

Shirley Yang was out of her mind for a while, came over to me and said, she found two cracked open eyeball symbols on many of the stone walls on the lower level, the people of the Devil’s Kingdom worshiped the eye, and of all their totems, even if there was a blood-dripping eye, it was a form of martyrdom of the soul to be liberated through bloodshed, but there could never be a cracked open eye, which would represent the collapse of destruction and power, and from that, there might be a connection with the The rest of the world’s theocratic religious system regime, at the end of the regime, the people who are under the rule of the theocracy, will begin to gradually doubt the faith, they will feel that this ritual of death is worthless, but the religion still occupies the absolute dominance, in this case, the individual will is pathetic, they are pushed by fate to a dead end, but before they die, they secretly carve the seal of curses, because the stone carvings are all Because the stone carvings are all black, so no one noticed, and the later, the more people who carved the curse before death, “wind erosion lake” under the “evil Luo sea city”, obviously destroyed in a large-scale ground subsidence catastrophe, and this rupture of the eyeball mark, in favor of a large number of people secretly engraved in the And this ruptured eyeball mark was carved inside the statue of the “Great Black Sky Striking Thunder Mountain”, which controls the power of all kinds of ores? Is this just a coincidence? Or has the curse really come true? This ancient theocracy originated from the worship of the eye, and I’m afraid it was ultimately destroyed by the eye.

Is that all you were thinking about? Sometimes I don’t know whether you are smart or stupid, we are afraid that our life is also left ten minutes, but also think about what is the use of these, even if it is not the curse is fulfilled, that evil Luo sea city of theocracy is also many acts of injustice will be killed, they are rampant in the north of Tibet for many years, and its legacy is even extended to the present, so the destruction of this ancient city in what natural and manmade disasters is not surprising, but I can’t wait to come to the next earthquake now, we dying But I wish there was an earthquake now, so we can bring those vipers to the back, and burn them all.

Shirley Yang said to me, “You’re very open-minded, let me ask you, since we won’t live much longer, do you have anything to say to me?”

I looked at the other three people and began to feel that these people were getting in the way a bit, so I had to say to Shirley Yang, “What else can I say on this occasion? One of the things I am most unhappy about is that I am not strong-willed enough to resist the temptation of the dollar and beautiful women, let you give the recruitment of security, originally this is nothing, I came back from Shaanxi, I do not intend to do hair mound touching the hook of the gold, the future can be with the American people to participate in and study financial stocks and whatnot, and strive to mix into a financial predator on Wall Street, with those oil tycoons mafia godfathers Mickey Mouse and the like! deal with ……”

Shirley Yang said, “Talking about it is outrageous, you may have formed a habit, I’d better talk to you about the things about the evil Luo Hai City.” Suddenly lowered his voice and said to me, “Most of the eyeball totems in the Evil Luo Hai City are singular, and the ruptured eyes on the wall are all two, I have a hunch that the rupture refers to the Great Black Sky striking the Thunder Mountain, while the two eyes respectively indicate the curse of the Evil Luo Hai City to occur twice in a big disaster, it is true that there was once a big disaster here, but whether it was once or twice is impossible to know. ”

Shirley Yang is not worried for we will die here, her keen intuition seems to notice that in the air here, there are some unusual changes, perhaps things will turn around, Ah Xiang’s eyes are a key element, her eyes since the discovery of the grievances hidden in the statue of the god …… In fact, rather than discovery, it is more like It was her eyes that awakened the tragic memories of this giant statue, and since then, the atmosphere here has become increasingly strange, so perhaps a second disaster will soon occur, and whether the crowd can escape and live depends on whether they can seize this opportunity.

I know Shirley Yang’s bloodline is very special, she seems to have an innate subtle sense of what is going to happen, since she thinks we still have hope to live, I have some hope in my heart, and I am not too dead, so I stood up again to look at the terrain again and again, but after looking at it my heart is completely cold, no matter how much skill you have, if you don’t have two wings on your ribs, you have no way of escaping, and you’ve just gotten rid of the nightmare in the ghost cave. Only just got rid of the nightmare curse in the ghost cave, but just away from the tiger’s den escape to go, and encountered the dragon pool drumming waves to come, how is our fate so unhelpful? Why can’t we have a “ao fish off but gold off the hook, wagging head and tail no longer come”? Feet of the giant statue slightly tilted in the direction of the “thunder mountain”, the remaining half of the head leaning on the steep mountain wall, the two arms from the bend of the arm stretching out in front of the arm, inserted into the mountain, the statue of God in the crags between the angle of a very small, and now we have reached the top of the floor is also tilted, I do not know whether the statue is intentionally caused by this way or due to design errors, resulting in I don’t know whether the statue was deliberately made this way or whether it was due to a mistake in design that caused it to topple over.

I have no heart to ponder these again, looked at the rest of the few people, a top of a list of listless, I think this time is dead, but people can not fall down, so the crowd said: “Comrades, unfortunately we can not see the day of victory, but the plan is in the people, things in the sky, when the water is dead, it will not be the fire death, we are considered to be the best of our efforts, but the last is still a little bit of luck. lack of so a little luck, I see this time to die is also dead, resigned, now I personally first here to make a statement, a moment of venomous snakes climb up, I will jump directly from this, never ambiguous, I would rather fall to pieces, but also can’t let those snakes bite to death, so at that time, none of you don’t stop me.”

Fatty is most afraid of falling from a high place that kind of death, but this kind of words certainly can’t come out of his mouth directly, listen to me say that I intend to commit suicide by jumping from dozens of meters high up in the air, even said with disdain: “I say Hu Commander, to say that you are not chaotic in a critical situation is still a little bit worse than me, the poisonous snakes haven’t climbed to the eyes, you are scared of the confusion, you think that jumping down is very heroic? You think jumping is heroic? That’s the courage of a man. Why can’t you understand that? Why don’t you realize this? You fell into a meat pie, do you think the viper will let you go? They’ll still be gnawing on your corpse. You’ll be bitten by snakes both inside and out, so why do you have to jump? I think we just sit here, go out and put this stinking bag to this one, which snake is willing to bite us let it bite, so that we can show that we are a style, principle, style of the Golden Inspector …….”

Fatty and I argued a few words, the rest of the three thought that we do not care about the impending death, in fact, only we know ourselves, we are a kind of heart weak performance, I have felt the crowd’s despair, are becoming more and more obvious, at this time Uncle Ming suddenly alarmed: “Oh no, these stones are finished… …Lord Hu please think of something quickly.”

Although everyone knew that was going to happen sooner or later, but still not face heart sinking, that covers the passage of the stone wall debris, appeared a large dark red shadow, like from the stone outward oozing dirty blood, the bottom of the large group of black snakes, there is one of the thickest in size, it spit out from the mouth of the snake’s venomous saliva, once it touches the air immediately turned into something similar to poisonous fungus, shaped like a red straw mushroom, after a few seconds it withered into black and red ash, almost catching up with sulfuric acid, surprisingly able to corrode a big hole in the stone wall.

Fatty said to me, “Commander Hu, if you want to jump off a building, you have to do it now.” I cursed a few times, how come that snake’s venom can’t be fucking used up either? Said to Fatty, “I’ll have to slaughter a few vipers for my back before I die.” Saying this Fatty, Shirley Yang and I all aimed our guns at the place where the snakes were about to burst in, the last few rounds of bullets were topped off, even if we were to die, we had to kill the big snake that was leading the pack first, due to the fact that there were too many black snakes, we didn’t have many bullets left, and we never had the chance to shoot at it, but this time around we had to finish that guy off.

The agitation of the snakes suddenly subsided, they should be the first to spread out, leaving a space for impact, when the stone slabs are spoiled, it will be like a tide of swarming, our breathing also became thick, staring at the eyes covered with red silk, staring at the entrance, the two sides of the snakes and humans are like a bow and arrow with the string drawn, each ready to fire, this moment of silence is surprisingly quiet, the underground canyon that the cool whooshing, full of sulfur flavor of the airflow in the underground canyon, as if it had all become frozen.

The attention of the crowd was distracted from the entrance to those sounds, none of them knew exactly what was going to happen, yet they seemed to feel so familiar.

Our situation was already bad enough, even if something else happened, how bad could it be at best? Ah Xiang, who had already been frightened, suddenly spoke, “It’s that mountain …… It’s the mountain that’s moving.”

I saw the flashlight beam, the giant statue of the head of those small gravel are trembling, due to the body tense a little stiff, we did not feel what changes in the foot, listening to Ah Xiang said, I hurriedly raised the “wolf eye” flashlight, the light aimed at the giant statue tilted past the cliff, accompanied by the sound of the mountain! Along with the sound from the mountain, the crystal veins of the cliff cracked out countless thin slits, and the distribution was getting longer and longer, as if the mountain had broken free from a gnarled dragon with teeth and claws.

Uncle Ming said, “Finished Finished …… Originally, in the north black place, there is still a possibility of encountering water and getting the middle way, this mountain collapsed, we can …… encounter the earth into the underworld road.”

I thought to myself, “It’s just, it seems that we ended up being crushed to death by a landslide, rather than dying in the mouth of a poisonous snake, although the back holding one side of the sink, but God is considered to be enough to take care of us, this kind of death is far better than letting the snake bite the dead after the body are blackened much better.”

The mountain in the fissure expanding sound, and then changed into a burst of muffled thunder, shocked the people and God shook, seems to be the big black sky strike Thunder Mountain crystal vein in the energy accumulated for too long, is about to vent out all.

Shirley Yang hurriedly told the group, “No …… is not a landslide, is the water, the water of the underground lake is going to pour over, everyone is fast to find a place where you can fix the body to hide, hold on tightly, don’t ever let go.” The muffled thunder in the mountain resounded all around, almost to cover up the sound of her voice, Shirley Yang even said twice before I heard clearly, and then understood where the water referred to in her words came from, from the topography of this place, hanging in the altar directly above the underground lake, not far away from this giant statue, may be we delayed in the altar for too long, a violent and long-lasting crystal trembling led to the breakage of many crystal layers, the Fatty’s nose is the result of the falling crystal layer, and the crystal layer is the result of a broken crystal layer, the crystal layer is the result of a broken crystal layer, the crystal layer is the result of a broken crystal layer, and the crystal layer is the result of a broken crystal layer. Fatty’s nose was sliced off by a falling crystal cone, the remaining rock layers can not withstand the pressure of the lake, although still supporting a period of time, but the mountain shell has cracked, the underground Grand Canyon’s topography is too low, the underground lake in the high groundwater that does not flow to the east will pour into this place, and then there will be a terrible phenomenon of the lake water to the northwest pouring phenomenon, the water in the underground lake, will be like a high-pressure water pistol like The water in the underground lake will shoot out from the cracked rock gaps like a high-pressure water gun.

All of us immediately leaned tightly against the broken wall around us, and Uncle Ming hid beside me, not forgetting to ask me: “If the lake water gushes out, we won’t have to die, right? Water is the middle way ah.”

I scolded, “Water your big head, even if the water in the underground lake is more, it can’t fill up this big canyon, if we are washed down by the water, it’s no different from jumping down from a giant elephant to commit suicide.”

Thunder stirred unceasingly sound, the lower level of the snake group also broke through the blocking the entrance of the stone plate, those stones have become rotten as red mud, a black snake body in the air, the brunt from the rotten stone holes leapt out, fat man one hand around the broken wall, the other hand will step up, against the shoulder, one-handed shot, the gun rang early that black snake head of the flesh shot through the eye.

The dead snake fell from the air again, the bottom of the rest of the black snake slightly confused, the momentum slowed down, I also used the M1911 to the gap in the ground fired two shots, but each person is only about ten rounds of ammunition left, this situation can only be maintained for a minute or two at the most, the sulfuric stench in the air nearby also do not know when it began to become strong, I think it must be the tremor of the mountain of the thunderbolts, so that the canyon at the bottom of the chain reaction! The lava belt that was not completely dead was also moving, and the vipers were most afraid of this odor, and they were even more desperate to climb to higher ground. Although we shot a few black snakes, the rest of them followed, and then surged up to the remaining half of the head of the giant statue.

Just when we have been unable to suppress the vipers rushing into the top, suddenly struck thunder in the mountain of thunder disappeared without a trace, but the whole mountain and the earth, still in the silent slight trembling, I do not know if it is not an illusion, the body of the ground are trembling, but just not half a day’s sound, the darkness of the huge underground canyon of dead silence, even those vipers as if they also feel what is going to happen, for a moment forgot to continue to crawl, including our five All the creatures, including us, fell into a kind of boundless panic.

The short but seemingly long silence lasted for about a few seconds, followed by three loud, earth-shattering noises, three streams of water shot out from the “Thunder Striking Mountain”, two of which sprayed out near the statue’s chest, and the other sprayed directly into the underground canyon, which looked like three huge silver-white dragons, each of which was as big as the statue’s waist. The water was like three silver-white dragons, each of which was as thick as the waist of the statue, entrapping the debris in the mountain shells, and sweeping the sky with the impact of water vapor.

The black statue of god is already head heavy, and although it is tall, but the interior are hollowed out, by this torrent, it began to shake, it inserted into the mountain arm is also gradually detached from the mountain shell, in the face of the great changes in heaven and earth, the power of mankind seems too small, we hold on to the broken wall, in the violent shaking, even can’t stand up, I never thought that this time I came to Tibet, and ended up by the water and died, the Once the giant statue was impacted by the water current and collapsed into the underground canyon, then we definitely could not survive, but at this time, in addition to try to fix their bodies, nothing can be done.

Those poisonous snakes were also scared by the vibration brought by the giant statue, or to us, it is difficult to make any action in the earthquake-like shaking, at this time everyone is in danger, there is no time to pay attention to those poisonous snakes, that is, bitten by the snakes do not dare to let go of their hands, I do not know who cried out, “It is going to fall.”

The giant statue is really not shaking, but at a very slow speed to the opposite side of the thunder mountain fell, I feel that my heart is also following the direction of the giant statue slowly tilted to fall out of my mouth, suddenly realized that Ah Heung is not enough to prepare for the shift of the center of gravity, and she only has one arm can be used, rolled down from the side of the short wall, I have no way to let go of my hand, otherwise I will also have to roll down from the stump of the top of the head, but only stretch out a hand and can not reach her, but only stretch out a leg to block her. Had to stretch out my legs to hold her back.

Ah Heung was quite smart, she held my legs and didn’t fall from the gap first. At this time, the statue was tilting at an unbelievable angle, but suddenly stopped and didn’t continue to pour down, as if it was hanging on to the wall of the mountain, I took this opportunity to grab Ah Heung, and took a look at the lower part of the statue, and I felt my head buzzing at once.

Because the giant statue itself is not parallel to the canyon, the location is slightly off, after the fall of the head just to support the east wall, there are many exposed fossilized paleontology on the crags, in the giant statue of the heavy pressure, was collapsed pieces of clattering down, and the giant statue not only continue to withstand the violent impact of the groundwater, coupled with its own dumping of its own weight, it is shaky, at any time may be sticking to the crags fell down with a thud. Falling down.

The situation is dangerous, I feel hot and sweat like rain, and the air has become turbid up, around everywhere is misty and wet, and then feel wrong, not fog, that is water vapor, the underground melting inflammation came out, and the lake agitation, the water below the boil, people want to fall down is not with the mother of the dumplings, a flip on the boil.

Shirley Yang raised her hand and pointed: “Look, what’s over there?” I followed her hand to look over there, although the water mist, but due to the distance is very close, you can see there is a very white shadow, across the canyon on both sides of the crags between the canyon, the canyon was originally very dark, but from the bottom of the crags in the crevice of the lava flowed out of the reflection of the height of a dark red, or else not see at all.

I tried hard to open my eyes to see clearly, but the more I looked the more blurred it became, it seemed to be a white bridge hanging over the wall, although this was a bit unlikely, but I couldn’t care less, the snakes were all driven crazy by the heat, and they would soon be crawling all over the head of the colossal statue, so who cares what’s on the other side, let’s just crawl over there first, or else in a little while more we would have to fall in the water and boil even if we weren’t bitten to death by the snakes.

We hold the top of the broken wall, to the near front, it turned out that the giant statue head and shoulders and cliffs, there is a huge fossilized long vertebrae, long vertebrae and cavities at both ends, are coiled and sunk into the mountain rock, the middle of a very long section of the skeleton but hanging in mid-air.

Giant statue pressure of the mountain rock constantly collapsing, looking to fall, I hurriedly greeted the crowd quickly climb to the skeleton of the fossil up, said Shirley Yang and Uncle Ming back up, A Xiang has a serious injury, let her climb from the suspended skeleton is impossible, must find a person on her back, and the fat man dizzy high, to let him carry A Xiang, may be two people have to fall, had to be my back to hold A Xiang, and with a fast padlock! A buckle, I am ready to urge the fat man to go quickly, the fat man looked back at the surge out of the poisonous snakes, under the boiling groundwater, how to die are not good, had to cross my heart and bite the teeth, simply close your eyes and touch the fossilized skeleton next to the climb up.

I carry Ah Xiang walked at the end, the giant statue may collapse at any time, I looked back, the mouth red saliva of the snake has been the rest of the black snake pressed under the top of the swim, the original group of snakes delayed up, is because they all want to quickly climb up to escape the rising heat, the last or the first big snake squeezed up, I did not think about lifting the gun to shoot the pistol in the five rounds of bullets all out of the chaos! Under the crisis situation, I didn’t have time to care whether I hit or not, and casually threw the empty gun away, and climbed up the white fossilized skeleton.

A go up to feel this fossil is so not strong, rolling heat wave, under the body shaking and trembling, as if a little bit of force on it may fall apart, five people at the same time to climb up, the number of people is indeed a little bit too much, but there is no time to lose, and it is impossible to pass one by one, I had to let Ah Xiang close their eyes, do not look down, but I myself feel dizzy on the top, gritted his teeth, what do not want to, desperately! Crawled forward.

Huge fossilized ancient creatures, the opposite side of the mountain embedded in a horizontal crevice, I look at that location is somewhat familiar, as if it is the location of the white ground Goddess of Mercy that I saw down below, this thought only flashed in my mind and then passed, the fat man in front of the slow-moving, and I did not dare to push him hard in the back, but the scorching air currents, loose shaking fossilized skeletons, almost exceeding the bottom limit of the crowd’s mental ability to withstand.

The watery air at this altitude began to weaken, the lake might have almost run out, my mouth was dry and I felt that my sanity was a little fuzzy, and it was entirely out of a subconscious inertia that I kept crawling on a section of the huge vertebrae, when I suddenly heard a burst of gunfire in front of us, which immediately cleared my trance-ridden mind a little bit, and looking up and forward, Shirley Yang was firing at a bunch of white shadows, and it turned out that those Earth It turns out that those earth goddesses emerged from their caves when we were about to move to the horizontal mountain crevice, and went to gnaw on the fossil, they may be worried about the snakes coming from here, the earth goddesses were in a big mess in the sound of the gunfire, and a lot of them fell down from the crags, and the ones that weren’t left alive leaped away without a trace.

Shirley Yang and Uncle Ming successively climbed to the safer crag fault, and the fat man from there is still a distance, I was blocked behind him want to fast can not be fast, behind the rumbling, the giant statue finally fell, immediately stirred up a lot of hot water, fossilized skeleton also almost scattered, only to see the opposite Shirley Yang towards us desperately gesture, I turned around to look at the shock, almost let go of the hand! Falling down, that big snake with blood flowing from its body, surprisingly climbed up the fossilized vertebrae before the giant statue collapsed, together with a few black snakes came up, that big snake seems to be crazy, the few snakes blocking its way are bitten and flung to the bottom, to the gust of a black cyclone like a sinuous swim up.

Shirley Yang wanted to shoot to meet, but the angle is not good, simply can not hit it, I had to shout at this time to urge the fat man, but the fat man at this time the whole body is shivering, than the tortoise crawling slower than the snake came over, I saw the fat man’s pistol inserted in the back of the armed belt, and so one side told him to give me to catch the bones do not let go of the hand, while carrying Ah Heung jumped forward, pulled out his pistol! Weapons are all top fire, I want to turn back to shoot, but because of the back of a person, the body can not control the center of gravity, fortunately a hand grabbed the fat man’s arming belt, carrying Ah Heung hanging in mid-air, the other hand shot, shot several times, has been approaching the big snake snake belly shot, rolled in the skeleton of the tail sent, slipped in the deep valley.

I tugged the fat man’s hand and sour and numb, hurriedly threw away the gun, with two hands tugging the armed belt, the fat man was the weight of me and Ah Heung fell down, strangled almost did not foam, suddenly gave birth to a vicious force, so fell two people, step by step climbed to the edge of the cliff, Shirley Yang on the opposite side of the reception is still in time, I backed the Ah Heung climbed up to the fault line, and the fat man lying on the ground with me, in addition to a big mouth to catch their breath, in addition to the Can’t move at all, and Ah Xiang has long been vaporized by the heat.

After a long time, the fat man rolled over and spat out a sentence, “What kind of animal fossil is this …… can be really fucking sturdy.”

My whole body is like scattered, every bone hurts, a good half a day to slow down, this time too dangerous, I really did not think that I can still live to leave the black statue of God, Uncle Ming said, “Although the water and fire of the robbery we have escaped, but now into the earth robbery, this craggy faults up and down can not be reached, and we are not monkeys, trapped here is not the same is not a death. ”

I said: “No, since I saw the Earth Goddess of Mercy, I thought of a way to get out of the way, but we do not have wings, it is impossible to fly here, so I also dismissed that idea, but in the end, we even encountered the water to be born, accidentally landed here, there is definitely a way to go back, the Earth Goddess of Mercy like heat and fear of cold, the most good at making holes, whether it is the rock layer or the soil layer can not stop them, and they are not only in the earth, but also the earth Goddess of Mercy, the earth Goddess of Mercy is not only the earth Goddess of Mercy. They are not only active underground, the range of their activities on the surface is mostly in the active hot springs area, these holes are very spacious in order to move their food, and it’s not a problem for Fatty to climb in, so we can drill a hole to get out.”

Uncle Ming was overjoyed at his words, just now although he saw some holes here, but inside thousands of doors, all hollowed out like a labyrinth, even if there is a compass, you have to turn inside and never go out, could it be that old Hu was actually able to find a way out inside?

I have not yet had time to answer, then heard the fat man grabbed said: “this kind of ground Guanyin hit the hole, in our mountainous countryside that place in the deep mountains and poor valleys, I do not know how many, because of their caves wide, so the hunting dogs most like to pull out of this kind of hole to catch the ground Guanyin catching the defilement of the last few years may have eaten to extinction, they are all the holes are from the outside to the inside of the fight, the animal is the habit, you look at the hole wall on the triangular paw prints, can be judged You can see the triangular paw prints on the cave wall, you can judge the trend of the cave, don’t care about the direction, focus on the direction is easy to confuse yourself around.”

Since there is a path to get away, the people will not delay, drilled into the bottom of the labyrinth of the “Guanyin Cave”, the terrain gradually rise, on the way to the hungry will pull out a few ground Guanyin eat, about the Guanyin Cave around half a day’s time, and finally drilled out of the underground labyrinth, the outside starlight flashes, is the middle of the night, we found that the elevation here is not very high, it is In a valley, the distant mountain shadow hazy, the sound of forest springs exceptionally bleak, the steep mountain walls, only a line of sky in the middle, as if the underground canyon moved out, but here is more narrow and depressing terrain, let a person feel deja vu, there are sporadic beasts on the ground of the white bones, the guys look around, are judging where the location of the direction of the position, I snapped out of it, this is one of the two martyred ditch, it is the other I suddenly realized that this is one of the two martyrdom ditches, is another hidden bone ditch, we just have to follow the road to the west, will be able to meet the yak team of the supply battalion.

Devil’s country tomb in the “tower burial”, always according to its shape and size, equipped with two martyrdom ditch, shaped like “two dragons sucking play pearls” of the shape, due to the ditch has a large number of beasts bones as a martyrdom, so the local people in Karamir called it “hidden bone ditch”, did not expect us from one of the “hidden bone ditch” into the “dragon top” glacier, and finally climbed out of the ground, but is in another one! “Hidden bone ditch”, but here is rich in geothermal resources, the degree of dense vegetation in the mountainous region of Karamir is not uncommon.

At this time the stars are brilliant, the terrain in the canyon is also bumpy and undulating, the forest is dense where the pines and cypresses full of slopes, covering all the starlight, under the night sky, the air between the mountains and fields is exceptionally cool and fresh, an exhale and an inhalation of the time, the cool air on the penetration of the heart and lungs between the long I did two deep breaths, which is only then to experience some of the feeling of survival after the robbery, and the rest of the few people, are also spiritually invigorated, the kind of waiting for the death of the torment of the previous anxiety, are Swept away.

Who knows that the sky has unpredictable clouds, the top of the valley overhead drifted over a cloud, and rising air currents together in one place, the blink of an eye on the downpour of rain, this Kunlun Mountain area, a mountain has four seasons, ten miles of different days, on the top of the snow, the mountain may be raining, and halfway up the mountainside may be under the same time hail, we have not even had time to complain about the sky is not beautiful, it has already been poured by the rain water all over the body soaked to the skin.

I touched a handful of rainwater on my face, look at the terrain around, this valley is ethereal and deep, for many years for the human traces do not reach, the valley of those ancient relics have mostly disappeared, but some of the volcanic belt by the earlier period of the formation of the volcanic stacks, stone gaps, are in the experience of countless rain and wind peeling after, is still as good as before, not far away from us, there is a cave, the cave is diagonally embedded in the crags, the situation of its upper convex lower concave, next to the There are a few ancient trees, a spring of water, there to the cliff as a screen, the ancient wood as a fence, the wind and rain is difficult to invade, the rain from the ten thousand feet of dangerous rocks in the air, in front of the cave formed a piece of tassel dance misty curtains, it is a good place to avoid the rain for the night.

I told everyone to hide in the cave to avoid the rain, because this kind of cave is likely to have wild animals, so Fatty carried a sports rifle and ran over to explore the way, Uncle Ming and Ah Xiang also covered their heads with their hands and followed at the back.

I found Shirley Yang is not in a hurry, let the rain fall on the body, still walking slowly, seems to be very enjoy this feeling, then asked her what she wants to do slowly? She asked her what she wanted to do slowly and leisurely.

Shirley Yang said in the earth Goddess of Mercy dug a hole in the earth drilled for half a day, the whole body is dirty dirt, but unfortunately now there is no mirror, or let everyone look at their own appearance, more than half of their own can not recognize their own, simply let the rain rinse a little later to the cave immediately rise a pile of fire drying, do not have to worry about getting sick.

I simply did not think of these, listen to her so say, only to think up this five of us from the ground to crawl out of the people, the whole body dirty really no one like, indeed like a group of unearthed relics, but here although the climate is warm, the mountain rain for a long time but also prone to fall sick, so I still let her quickly to the cave to avoid the rain, don’t because of the escape from death on the complacency of the figure of a moment of cleanliness, in case of turning back to the joys of life to let the If she gets sick from the rain, it’s not worth it.

I take Shirley Yang followed by the rest of the three people, into the cave, once inside will first smell a weak sulfur breath, there are a number of white pits in the cave, it seems that this place has previously sprayed geothermal heat, gushing out a few hot springs, now has dried up, although the smell is slightly uncomfortable, but also do not have to worry about the wild animals out there.

The valley has to be dead branches and leaves, I and fat man to the cave entrance did not fall where the rain, pick up a pile of haphazardly hold back, piled up in the cave on the ground to raise a pile of bonfire, eat the rest of the big only ground Guanyin take out to turn the grill, ground Guanyin’s meat is like a fat gopher in general, there are fat and skinny five flowers and three layers, extremely suitable for grilled to eat, baked not much effort, has been the color of golden, squeaking down the flow of oil, there is no any spices And such condiments, so when eating will inevitably be some fishy, but after getting used to it, but on the contrary, I think the more you chew, the more fragrant.

The more the flame burns more and more prosperous, baked people all over the body warm, taut spirit this relaxation down, several days accumulated fatigue injury, all surged out, from inside to outside are feeling exhausted, I gnawed half of the hind legs of the Earth Goddess of Mercy, the mouth of the meat is not chewed almost fell asleep, yawned, and was about to lie down and squint on a sleep, Shirley Yang and I talked to the United States thing to come.

This matter Shirley Yang said a number of times, I have never made a clear commitment, because at that time, life and death is difficult to predict, every day to live in fear, every day is like the end of the world, but now it is different, since we are from the curse of the nightmare to break free, I will have to give her an answer, I have also asked myself many times in my mind, of course, I would like to go to the United States, and that’s not because of the United States of America and the multitude of I want to go to the United States, that is not because the United States of America and how good the country, but I never want to be separated from Shirley Yang, but the fat man and I are now penniless, even if the bottom of the box are scratched on the can not come up with a few money, to go to the other side of the what to make a living? My fallen comrades, most of their hometowns are in the old and poor areas, who will take care of their families in the future? Of course, Shirley Yang will not hesitate to solve our many financial difficulties, but I think emotionally, for a moment still a little bit can not accept this way, self-reliance is my principle, I’m not too easy for a long time for a thing and hesitation, but this time I had to think about it again and again.

So I said to Shirley Yang or give me some time, let me think again, if you go to the United States, I studied half a lifetime of feng shui secret art is no use, from the beginning of my first to the Beijing Panjiayuan antique market, I intend to pour a big bucket, make a fortune, or else this set of the Dragon Hunter’s secret, is not it in vain to learn? Our dragon building treasure hall are not less into it, but surprisingly did not touch back any valuable things, this can be a little good to say not good to hear, now our side of the hot abroad, can go overseas is a fashionable thing, everyone is sharpening their heads to foreign countries, no matter which country to go to, even the third world countries are rushing to go, are intended to go out first anyway, of course we want to go to the U.S., but now the time is not quite ripe. ”

Fatty said on the side: “Yes, when the Hu Commander that to pour a big bucket as the goal of his life’s lofty words, so far still in the ear, around the beam for three days, this is our highest ideal, do not understand this wish, can not eat, can not eat, sleep, sleep.”

Uncle Ming listen to us speak this meaning, like what big plans, and quickly said to us: “There is no mistake ah? We haven’t even gotten out of the Kunlun Mountains yet, so we’re planning a big move? Must bring me ah, I can provide funds and all the necessary supplies, although this time we lose a net light, but there is a gamble not for the loss of it, I believe that Hu old brother’s strength, we can certainly be hard to get a single big deal.”

I impatiently said to Uncle Ming: “Don’t follow the uproar, okay? Can’t you see that there are three great inverters here, talking obliviously about the future of the inverted bucket industry? It’s going to be a sleepless night.”

Uncle Ming lost his wife and soldiers, now of course, refused to give up any opportunity to make money, accompanied by a smile and continued to say to me: “I certainly know that you are a big brother to do great things, but a good man three help, in addition to Fatty and Ms. Yang, I can also help some small help ah, I have a very valuable information here, Xinjiang, the King’s tomb of the King of Hami, have you ever heard of it? It is said that there is a set of gold scripture inside the tomb of Hami King, that scripture every page is gold, inside is even studded with all kinds of gemstones, read a line of scripture can make the withered flowers open again, read two lines of scripture can make ……” Uncle Ming said while closing his eyes and shaking his head, as if the gold scrolls He said, closing his eyes and shaking his head, as if the golden scroll had been touched into his hands and he was intoxicated.

Shirley Yang see with me is talking about things, and was interrupted by Uncle Ming, the topic is more and more far away, say it again, may have to discuss to go to Tianshan pour Hami King’s bucket, then cleared his throat, pulled my attention from the topic of Uncle Ming back, Shirley Yang said to me: “You obviously in the top of the statue of the gods in the strike of thunder mountain, has said in person, do not want to Do the collapsing hook again, want to go to the United States with me, but now less than a day, you even denied it again, but I’m not angry with you, because I understand your feelings, go back to the road is still very long, after you arrive in Beijing, you give me a reply, I hope that I have previously persuaded you that those words are not in vain …… Do you know that the Blamey band I think this story is related to our experience. I think this story has a lot of similarities with our experience.”

Fatty and I looked at each other. We had never heard of the band “The Band That Didn’t Sell Coal”, and Shirley Yang said that our experiences were similar to this band? What is she trying to say? I really can’t figure out the connection between “The Golden Schoolmaster” and “The Band That Never Sells Coal”. Could it be that there’s a group of people who fight and sing at the same time? So I asked Shirley Yang what is “The Band That Doesn’t Sell Coal”?

Shirley Yang said, “It’s not “The Band That Never Sells Coal”, it’s “Bremen”, the name of a place in Germany. The story is a fairy tale, in which four animals, a donkey, a dog, a cat and a chicken, all feel that life is too stressful for them, so they decide to form a band and go to Bremen to perform, and they think that they will surely be very popular there, and thus live happily ever after. In their minds, reaching Bremen, the end of their journey, is their ultimate ideal.”

Fatty and I both shook our heads at the same time, “This analogy is very unflattering, how can you compare us with these fairy tale animals?”

Shirley Yang said, “You guys listen to me finish first, the Bremen Band they formed actually never reached Bremen until the end, because on their journey to Bremen, they used their wits to defeat the bad guys in the hunter’s hut, and then they stayed there and lived happily ever after, even though the Bremen Band had never been to Bremen, but on their journey, they have found what they hoped for and realized their self-worth.”

Although Fatty still didn’t understand, I basically understood the meaning of Shirley Yang’s story. The “Blimey Band” that had never been to Blimey was very similar to us, the “Gold Diggers” who had never made a fortune through grave robbing. Perhaps we have gained a lot of valuable things during the journey, the value of which even exceeds our great goal of “making a fortune”, and the destination is not important, but what we have gained in the process of going to the destination.

After listening to the story of the Bremen band, I was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked Fatty: “Why do we have to go to the bucket? Is there any other reason besides because we need money?”

Fatty let me ask a stunned, thought for half a day before saying, “Pouring …… buckets? This because …… because in addition to dumping, we can not do anything else, nothing will ah.”

After listening to the words of the fat man, I produced a very strong sense of loss, the heart is empty, no longer want to talk, the rest of the people in the eat something, also rely on the cave wall rest, I toss and turn, the heart seems to have a kind of hidden things were touched, that is a kind of examination of their own destiny.

I and the fat man’s background are similar, are from military families, experienced the Cultural Revolution ten years of catastrophe, that period is the most important stage in the formation of values and worldview in a person’s life, the revolution is not guilty, the notion that rebellion is justified has been deeply rooted in the school’s teachers were criticized and criticized the stench of the school basically deserted, to be cultured, to be no culture, to be no production technology, which is not only the sorrow of the two of us, but also a whole era of the world, the world, the world, the world, the world, the world, the world, the world, the world, the world, the world, the world, and the world. This is not only the sadness of the two of us, but also the sadness of an entire era, and then responded to the call of the “wide world to refine the red heart”, we went to the most remote ravine in Inner Mongolia to join the army, and practically experienced a hundred miles of land can not be seen in a shadow of a “wide world”, I am still lucky to go to the countryside for more than a year to become a soldier, and I was lucky to go to the countryside for more than a year to become a soldier. I was lucky enough to go to the countryside for a year to become a soldier, and the fat man, if it is not ironheartedly do not believe in what to return to the city indicators, their own rolled up and ran back, I do not know how many years to nest in the mountains.

Join the army is my dream since childhood, but I did not catch up with the good time, can only dream every night to participate in the third world war, this soldier when is ten years, twenty-nine years old to become a company commander, it is not easy to the southern border of the beacon, it is a great opportunity for me to build a career, but the impulse on the battlefield, so that I expected a great future into thin air, a person in the army life of ten years, once you leave the army, it is the same as losing everything, and the army, the army is the same as losing everything. A person who has lived in the army for ten years, once leaving the army, it is equal to lose everything, after the reform and opening up, there are a lot of new things, and new values keep pouring into China, I even hard to adapt to this transformation, want to learn to do some business, but found that he is not that piece of material, but also gradually no ideals and pursuits, all day long is to eat and wait for death.

Until Fatty and I met the big gold teeth, began our “gold inspector” career, which makes me a little bit of a struggle to find the goal of the feeling of “pouring a big bucket, make a fortune” for me may just be a not too reliable idea, because as Fatty I just want to live a more fulfilling life instead of wasting my time in mediocrity. When I arrive in the United States, I can continue to fight for more money to make life easier for those who need my help.

About these things, I have never thought about it so carefully as now, for a time my thoughts rose and fell, though my eyes were closed, I did not have the slightest sleep, I heard in my ears that the rest of the people were all tired and hard, and it did not take long for them to enter the dreamland respectively, and the sound of the rain outside had already ceased, and suddenly I heard a person walking softly towards the outside.

I did not move, slightly open my eyes a thin slit, only to see the fire has been extinguished half, Uncle Ming is sneaking towards the cave, he is carrying my backpack in his hand, that contains some of our leftover meat, there are a few sets of punching suits, dry batteries and other things, in order to go out from the deep mountains, the minimum must be these things, I immediately jumped up, a hand to grab his wrist, whispered and asked: “Where do you want to go in the middle of the night? Don’t tell me that you want to put out the grass at night, put out the grass can not use to bring a backpack, if you want to rush why don’t you tell me, I can also give you a ride.”

This is very sudden, Uncle Ming did not scare out of a heart attack: “I …… I …… I …… alas …… I am a small drop in the ocean, how dare I trouble the lieutenant How dare I bother you, sir?”

I told Uncle Ming that you are a senior, how can I not send you off? Where do you want to go? Uncle Ming stomped his foot and said: “This is really difficult to say ah ……” said the face of sadness, gloomy look to the quiet me said: “To be honest, this time out of the ground alive, I feel like a dream, looking back on the past, I feel that life is very special. Looking back, I feel that life is like a dream, and painful and short, this time to return from the dead for two lives, but everything is open, I have a plan to go to the temple as a lama, chanting scriptures, Buddha, the rest of his life, repenting the sins of the past, but afraid of Ah Heung sad, or not to let her sad for the best, so this is the next step want to leave without saying goodbye, I think that there are you, old man Hu, will be able to let Ah Heung, this child has a good home! I think that with you, old brother Hu, you will be able to give the child Ah Heung a good home, so don’t bother bothering with me anymore, old me, I am a leaf in the wind, so let me go with the wind.”

I almost didn’t let Uncle Ming to be angry happy, this set of tricks if the first time to make, maybe I really let him let bluff, but I have long understood his intention, the old Hong Kong farmers see I seem to promise Shirley Yang to go to the United States, in all likelihood, won’t go to the fight, at present this “hidden bone ditch” only one road, go out is not difficult anymore. He also owes me a room full of antiques, which can’t let him run away, so I snatched Uncle Ming’s backpack: “Monks are all empty, but you don’t rush to all empty to go, when in Beijing, but it was agreed, that a rack of antiques and playthings, including Yang Guifei in her mouth to quench the thirst of the Runyu, it should be mine, what’s the matter to go back to Beijing to settle the account! Besides, at that time you are willing to be a Taoist or not, willing to do lama also, all with me have nothing to do, but until then, we have to be more close, half a step can not be separated.”

I look at this time the rest of the people are sleeping very heavy, everyone is really too tired, for Uncle Ming this kind of cleverness is not necessary to alarm the rest of the people, so I can not be said, the backpack from the hands of Uncle Ming back, will be pillowed under the head, and told Uncle Ming that if you want to go, but the things can not be taken away, because we also have to use, if you do not want to go, hurry to find a good place to rest, do not wake up the other people.

Uncle Ming had no choice but to come back, sat on the ground and said quietly to me: “Hu old brother …… I say one more sentence ah, that the Hami King’s tomb does not fall on a time, it is really a pity to touch the gold lieutenant’s craft, we cooperate, must be able to engage in a big, you do not look at me old, but throughout the ages there are How many old and strong veteran generals ah, Zhao Lian Po through the art of war, Han Ma Yan fixed the state family ……”

I skimmed my mouth, simply close his eyes to sleep, no longer pay attention to him, Uncle Ming consciously uninteresting, run and did not run into, inevitably a little dry embarrassment, but also had to rest on the ground, this time I really let go of the sky and the earth wide, dream souls looking at the hometown fly, it seems that did not sleep for long, it was Shirley Yang awakening, the day has been bright, the weather of the mountains said change, while the sky is high and the clouds are light, it is necessary to move out of the valley. The underground volcanic belt is unusually active, the sulfur smell in the valley is much thicker than at night, although it is difficult to judge whether there will be danger, but it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time.

We do not have anything left, do not need to do more to organize, at that moment will still by the fat man back Ah Xiang, set off to start, from the ground out, Citizen’s dive watch has been scrapped, the compass on it has lost its role, because of this kind of multi-functional watch, although fully adapted to the harsh natural environment of the wild, but there is a drawback, is waterproof one hundred meters, but waterproof but not anti-gas, precision mechanical watches are most afraid of water vapor The water vapor generated by the high temperature is easy to go into the sealed table, the pressure inside the watch changes slightly, will lead to precision parts fall off and loose, mechanical positioning has been impossible, but the good thing is that the direction of this hidden bone ditch is very clear, just go out, to the mountainous areas at high altitude, you need to look for the direction of the experience through the wilderness survival.

A group of people to the west, out of the valley, but also around the top of the dragon glacier, in order to reach another martyrdom ditch, supply camp yak team, should be waiting for us there, although we try to pick up the low-lying areas to walk, but this elevation is still steeply rising, the temperature is also lower and lower, on both sides of the glacier sandwich confrontation of the cypress forests, all over the debris, walking in the middle of it as if it is in the middle of the river of stone and wood, the high side of the messy between the stones Occasionally, you can see the snow lotus in full bloom, beautiful white, flower fragrance pleasant, in fact, the snow lotus is not as valuable as the matter of legend as rare, near the glacier can often see, the local Tibetan medicine monks generally will be used in the medicine, only the ice heart of the snow lotus flower is extraordinary, idle is difficult to see.

And walked half a day’s journey, the sky on the clouds gradually thin, “Karamir” mysterious snowy peaks inadvertently, unveiled her mysterious veil, looked up to the heights, around the “dragon top glacier” several large snowy mountains, as if the goddess wore a silver crown The glittering light, towering proudly look up to the sky, seemingly outstanding style, the mountainside at those rare and magnificent ice tower forest, like the silver crown edge inlaid with diamonds, that is a glazed world, if not thin clouds, can not see this kind of fantastical and fascinating scenery, glaciers under the formation of countless strange stone stone forests, densely stretched down with the low elevation at the ancient forests as a single entity.

Glacier meltwater in the lower forest submerged, issued a rhythmic tinkling sound, as if the fairy’s jade finger gently strumming the strings, flowing out a series of moving notes, although we are cold and hungry, feel breathless, but see this kind of fairyland-like scenery, but also had to sigh to be able to live to walk to this place, is really too good.

To the edge of the forest, the people feel that the limit of physical strength has been exhausted, the fat man also wheezed as a ball, the face of the Church rose purple, had to put A Xiang down first, do not rest a little bit is not able to walk, A Xiang is more has not come up for air, I know that this is not tired, but in the plateau area, due to excessive movement of hypoxia reaction, if all the way to go through the gradual increase in elevation, then the breath is never even, can only rest in place until their plateau. Rest in place, until their plateau reaction is reduced until, but that is not much hope, no oxygen tanks AXA I’m afraid has not lasted.

I also feel stifled in the chest, looked at the distant sea of mountains, really do not know how far to go up, the heart is worrying, suddenly found a few figures on the distant slopes, I do not quite dare to believe that I can see the rest of the people here, thought it was the eyes of the snow-capped mountains of the silver light shook the flower, busy rubbing his eyes and then look carefully, no mistake, there are people, Shirley Yang and others have seen, see them that attire and clothing, and the people are not in the same place. Shirley Yang and other people also saw, look at their attire clothing, it is with us into the mountain with a few local footmen.

Those four people did not find us, they seem to be in the clouds of the divine peak of worship, kowtowed constantly, the crowd see finally found the yak team, immediately in high spirits, support each other, while waving and greetings to those footmen to the footmen to the near, the footmen also found us, but also delighted, pointing to the snowy peaks, signaling for us to also look at that side.

I followed their fingers to look, in the very high place, there are more than ten strong, huge wild yak, like a piece of black boulder, is slowly moving forward, like walking in the sky, they are twice as big as ordinary yak, is a typical alpine animals, extreme cold resistance, the number is very sparse, inhabited in the sparsely populated high mountains nearby, the vitality of the tenacity of the outstanding, was regarded as the local people as God, only a few old herdsmen have seen with their own eyes, is a symbol of auspicious and infinite power, usually a hard to see, this time a look to see a group, such a great omen, no wonder these people are so excited.

This group of wild yak body large, there are four meters long, majestic, horns stout style, body lots of long and thick black hair, abdominal skirt hair can be as long as the ground, long full of prickly tires of the tongue, and the horns and hooves are its three weapons, even the Tibetan horse bears and wolves do not dare to mess with them, it looks like this group of wild yak, is treading snow to go to the other side of the high mountain basin.

Looking at the group of wild yaks slowly walking in the sky road, had to be a heartfelt sense of awe, the awe of nature and life, the crowd witnessed a head of large and silent yaks, gradually disappeared in the snowy mountains behind the ridge line, the clouds between the mountains again together Long, the silver snow-colored peaks wrapped again, we lost our minds, still looking at the clouds, after a long time to come back to God.

It turned out that due to the rapid rise of geothermal heat, washed away the snowy top of the clouds, the snowy peaks appear real, this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to worship kowtow, a few stayed in the supply camp of the footman, have come to pray for the protection of God’s peaks, and accidentally saw the gods of the wild yak, all rejoice, they set up their camp not far away from the forest, a few days ago, there was a cold snap on the glacier, followed by avalanches, they were very worried about this time, this time! See us come back safely, they can’t stop shaking the bible, full of praise for the Buddha’s benevolence and benevolence, for the “first” death, they are sorry, but the local herdsmen on the matter of life and death, and we have a very different opinion, can die in the sacred snowy peaks, that’s the merits and virtues of the success of the perfect, not to mention that he killed the Kunlun Mountain demon incarnation of the white wolf king. White wolf king, “the first” in the next life can become the Buddha’s Changzhu protector (Changzhu: eagle sound such as the meaning of the dragon roar), may his spirit in heaven to bless the Karamir with a far no longer be threatened by the wolf plague.

Supply camp has sufficient equipment and medicines, A Xiang that has begun to deteriorate the condition was stabilized, lying on the back of the yak inserted two days of oxygen tanks, temporarily no danger, Shirley Yang said to A Xiang also received to the United States, so as not to let Uncle Ming sold her, in the U.S. can be on the eyes of the operation, so that she can live a normal life later.

We pulled out of camp and set off, riding a yak, finally out of the mountains of the Karamir, back to the desolate Zaji Xigu pasture, the herdsmen see the return of the team, busy for us to play tsampa rake, cooking ghee tea, and soon after one after another to open the meal, let the group to eat and drink, although not into the mountains before the dinner luxury, but also very sumptuous and delicious, first eat the hand-meat mutton, and then the thin-skinned meat of the Tibetan buns, put sugar and raisins of the rice, and finally, the hand-meat of the lamb, then the thin skin of the Tibetan bun, and put sugar and raisins of the rice, and finally the rice, and then the rice. raisins, and finally a big bowl of yogurt for each person.

We have not eaten such a decent meal for many days, throw open the cheeks a fierce eat, eat to the end of even sitting can not sit down, which is reluctant to let the herdsman remove the leftovers, finished, but also asked people: “tomorrow morning what time to start dinner?” Of course, such people are mainly fat and I and Uncle Ming, Shirley Yang did not like us so unprofitable, A Xiang ate not much, only drank two bowls of yogurt.

In the evening I and the iron rod lama said this this into the mountain after, lama listen to say: “auspicious ah, the extraordinary encounters countless, really is the triumph of music brilliant, this is not only your creation, but also the Buddha’s protection of you, this body is the container of the sea of bitterness, like their own enemies, if you can have a chance to make good use of this body, then become the foundation of the auspicious … … …”

Iron rod lama on the “dust beads” do not quite understand, so I briefly told him some, in fact, “dust beads” is “phoenix gall bladder”, Tibetan tantric also have feng shui, and the Middle Kingdom Feng Shui Theory is similar, but the terminology is very different, like the Karamir mountains, tantric called it “Phoenix Palace”, is the place of the phoenix bird, and the Qingwu feng shui, refers to its heaven and earth spine “dragon top”, is the place where yin and yang converge.

After the destruction of the Devil’s Kingdom, “phoenix gall bladder” will flow into the Central Plains, the Zhou Dynasty, the princes and nobles in charge of divination, through the candles and turtles, predicted that this is a symbol of the secret weapon of reincarnation, and from the land of the phoenix, but how to use it correctly? But did not divine what clues to, only the secret through the secret text, hidden in the record of the “phoenix mountain” this event on the dragon armor, only a few people mastered the sixteen words of the heavenly trigrams, in order to peep at the mystery, the sixteen words of the trigrams have long been lost, we can only imagine through some speculation about the content of it, since the Qin and Han Dynasty, some privileged classes, have retained a number of the symbol of eternal life and reincarnation, and from the land of the Phoenix, but how to use correctly? Since the Qin and Han dynasties, some privileged class, have retained the “phoenix mountain” of the different text of the dragon bone, may also be out of the desire for immortality, hoping that one day, can unlock the secrets.

And this “phoenix gallbladder” is in fact the demonic kingdom used to sacrifice the ghost cave of a sacrificial vessel, “phoenix shrine” geographical location is unique, there are two pools in the inner dan, if the yin and yang feng shui to illustrate, these two pools, is the black and white in the Tai Chi diagram of the two small circles, Tai Chi Diagram There is a line in the middle separating the black and white yin and yang, but the black and white sides have their own color want to reverse the two circles, symbolizing the yin and yang as one, “Phoenix Sacred Palace” in the sacred palace of the pool, symbolizing the two dots, if the two dots with the opposite color cover, then the yin and yang are no longer fusion, but was clearly separated from the Iron Rod. I asked the lama to take a look at the eye mark on my back, it had changed from red to black, which meant that the passage between the present world and the imaginary space had been completely cut off, finally getting rid of the entanglement of the ghost cave to the place of death, however, when we left the altar, we just happened to catch up with the disappearance of A-Xiang, so we were very hasty, so we forgot to retrieve the “phoenix gall bladder”, and went back to the altar, it was already impossible. It is impossible to go back again, which is a great pity.

Iron rod lama said, the original “phoenix gall” is to check the enemy treasure pearl king verse mentioned that the bead of reincarnation, check the enemy treasure pearl …… that is to say that the hero king as boundless buddhist mani treasure pearl general, can rival the devil’s country of the bead of reincarnation, the sky is no boundaries, the earth can’t, the devil’s country of the remaining poison is still not clean, all of the The residual poison of the devil country has not yet been purified, all the dharmas are changing, the human world is impermanent, what you have done is considered to have accomplished a piece of good fruits without any cover and without any limit, Loksang Myoho Auspiciousness.

Lama said he will go to turn the lake to return the wish, and asked me what I intend, I said I am thinking of going overseas, said here, thought of the iron rod lama is old, died on the way to turn the lake pilgrimage, is his wish, Tibet’s heavenly road is long, I am afraid that in this life is no longer have the opportunity to see each other, my eyes began to some sour.

Early the next morning, Shirley Yang discussed with the iron rod lama, want to donate a sum of money for the temple near Karamir, build a golden Buddha statue, for the deceased to pray for blessings, I know that Shirley Yang believe in God and not Buddhism, she did this to a large extent is for our sake, to shade us thick virtue, because I and fat people and other people inverted fights when the bad a lot of rules, but not the life of a great man, early death many times, she Think very thoughtful, I heart to her very grateful.

Iron rod lama took us to a nearby temple, this temple is very small, only two into the front and back, near the pile of some of the scripture stone pile, temple called “white snail Manjia” also with the local legend, the front hall for the Buddha eight years old immovable vajra statue, the back of the hall is left behind in the Tang dynasty fresco remains, before this place was also brilliant for a time, the frescoes there are The palace of the Dragon King, the bedchamber of the Rakshasa Demoness, the secret passage infested with demonic dragons, and the valley lurking with fierce ghosts are all the demons and devils that were shocked and subdued by the Fudo Vajra in those years, and on both sides there are statues of the God of Seeking Incense, who are responsible for making offerings to the gods with the marvelous music of the pipa.

According to the locals, due to the remoteness of this place, sparsely populated, so the immovable golden steel temple incense is not flourishing, a thousand years of years passed in a flash, now only one-third of the size, and has been very dilapidated, a long time ago, there were originally three halls here, but also for the “Wheel of time Vajra” and “victory music Vajra”, repair “victory music Vajra” law can be achieved in the body, the Buddha’s fruit, repair “Wheel of Time Vajra” law, can make the military war and all the disasters to calm down, the winds and rains, the five cereals, the country is at peace with the people.

Shirley Yang see immediately decided to donate a sum of money, so that Karamir’s Vajra Temple to restore the old view, iron rod lama said Shirley Yang must be our snowy plateau Ram (fairy) down to earth, repair the temple to build a temple merit, there will be a blessing in the future, the scriptures say the world’s first class of blessed people, a total of four kinds of blessings, the first one is a great wealth, treasures, possessions, fields and houses; the second form of solemnity and uprightness, with Secondly, he has a dignified appearance with thirty-two appearances; thirdly, his body is healthy and free from disease, and he is stable and happy; fourthly, he has a long lifespan and enjoys a peaceful and prosperous life. Although he does not cultivate the wisdom of the world, and cannot cultivate the Way of Enlightenment to realize the fruits of wisdom, he has other good qualities, and is free from all kinds of obstacles, and is able to obtain all that he wishes for, and has a long life of abundance and no deficiency.

I thought to myself that this blessing of having thirty-two faces is not worth it, if I really have thirty-two faces, even if I change one face a day, I won’t have the same face for more than a month, so won’t all my acquaintances be unable to recognize each other? But I think this is afraid of some kind of metaphor, within the Buddha Hall is a solemn place, although I do not care about anything, but also do not dare to ask such a rude question, and later realized that the thirty-two phases refers to the possession of the blessed face of the various characteristics.

A little distracted, the iron rod lama has led the crowd back to the front hall, the group followed the iron rod lama prayers, for the future fate of the heart of the wish, so that we have the fate of the turbid world to worship and pray for the Buddha’s compassionate light, illumination of the world, peace, tranquillity, happy days come to earth, may I Buddha life and death Nie Nie Nie Nie protection to support me and so on, as much as possible, we have eliminated our ignorance of the troubles, as early as possible to become the great auspiciousness.

Before leaving Uncle Ming to stay in the temple as a lama, fat man and I can not help but pick him up to go back, I suddenly have a bad feeling, asked Uncle Ming said: “you in Beijing mansion of those antiques, it is not all imitation, right? Otherwise, why do you always want to run away? I tell you Hong Kong sooner or later must be liberated, you old die this heart, this thunder you are on the top, run to where not properly over.”

Uncle Ming busy said: “There is no mistake ah, I always do business is to sell and buy, never water fake, otherwise why are honored as my Uncle Ming it? Ming is clear, clear, clear, where will do that kind of things that can not be seen? I just want to become a monk because I suddenly saw through the world, and I never want to run away to avoid debts.”

Fatty and I immediately told Uncle Ming, see through the red dust on the great, this time you lost a bottom of the sale, originally we can not bear to take it all, but since you have to see through the red dust, the iron will to jump out of the three worlds, not in the five elements of the mixing of the things that are outside of the body, naturally, also come and go are unattached, we do not have to have any intolerance of the concerns of the right to help you deal with the old clean up to help you Uncle Ming! Early to achieve the right fruit, said also do not care Uncle Ming’s expression of bitterness, will he even dragged back with a frame.

Considering the condition of the wounded, we did not stay too much in Karamil, three days later, our international column bid farewell to the local shepherds, return to Beijing, just to the city, I let the fat man quickly go to the big gold teeth to find, together to Uncle Ming’s residence to meet the valuable antiques all collected, of course, this matter did not let Shirley Yang know, Shirley Yang want to take AXIANG to the hospital to review the wound! Shirley Yang had to take Ah Heung to the hospital for a review of his wound, and I just found a reason to leave.

Uncle Ming ran a few times did not run into, had to take me back home with a sad face, Beijing was once known as “big hutong three thousand six, small hutong stuffed cow hair”, after the reform and opening up, with the transformation of the city, the courtyard gradually less up, Uncle Ming’s mansion is located in the vicinity of the port Chengmen, relatively speaking, is a quiet lot in the downtown, although there are a few points of Dilapidated, but the brick and tile, there is a kind of ancient decadent beauty, more or less retained some of the “canopy fish tank pomegranate tree, Mr. fat dog fat girl” atmosphere, the more I look at the more I feel that this set of courtyards enough to pay attention to, can not help but a little bit of regret, at first, if you let Uncle Ming to the mansion is also part of the remuneration, he will not disagree, but unfortunately, we are not the same. Just want the antiques and paintings in the mansion.

Not much effort, the fat man and the big gold teeth two people, each carrying two large suitcases, wind and fire to meet, the big gold teeth to see me, they bared their gold glittering teeth, said: “Aigoo my Hu master, you can think of dead brother, since you went to Tibet, my eyelids did not day without jumping, looking forward to the Central Red Army to Shanbei like finally you are looking forward to coming back, now the Panjia Yuan situation is not good, the business is not good, the business is not good. Panjiayuan situation is not good, business can not be done, you are not in these days, brother even find a person who can discuss not …….”

I said to Dajinya: “We almost folded in the Kunlun Mountains this trip, I can’t imagine that our base is also very difficult? But these things back to have time to say, now we hit the landlord to share the land, Uncle Ming has put this room in the antique artifacts, are as honorarium to us, I and fat man on the identification of antique age value of a kind of hook, are a bottle is not full of, half a bottle of shaking, so these things, also have to be by you to give the long eye, so that we can quickly discount cash.”

Dajinya said: “Hu master, fat master you two just look good, rest assured that the craft of dumping brother is not, but in terms of ancient porcelain, jade, miscellaneous on the eyes, really not we blow, four nine city how many connoisseurs? I’ve never seen a master who can compare with me.”

Fatty at this time happy mouth are fast closed, an arm tightly wrapped around uncle Ming’s neck: “clean up the gold ou a piece of, divide the field really busy, uncle Ming we can not with you old polite, we gentlemen who with who ah, you shot at me at the beginning, I did not have the good sense to say anything, do not need to nonsense, numb hurry to open the door.”

Uncle Ming had to place the antiques of the room door to us to open, everything inside, as before, several racks of ancient sandalwood cabinets, placed in a forest of many antiques, giving a person a variety of things, do not know what to look at a good feeling, and our first time to come when there is no difference, just missing a “thirteen whiskers porcelain cat,” that piece of The thing is not a valuable thing, we do not care too much about it, Dajinya can not forget, always thinking about – is Uncle Ming has been carrying the phoenix-shaped “Run Yu”, that thing has long fallen into the hands of the fat man, at this time also take out, in order to make a book to estimate the overall value, and the overall value of the cat. In order to make a book to estimate the overall value, we went to the United States this time to do business with the funds, are going to land in it.

Dajinya can’t care about anything else, this time finally take the jade phoenix in the hands, since there are some heartfelt admiration: “To say that the jade crushed and eaten to be able to live forever, that is very unscientific, but jade has the effect of nourishing the face to maintain life and reside in the face, it is an indisputable fact, ali Xi dowager old Buddha insisted on using jade beauty every day, that year, along with emperor yangzhu Guier inserted kunshan runmao of the jade plucking, not using orchid cream, and the sideburns are fresh. Do not use orchid cream, and sideburns fresh moist, no one in the world can match the woman, but she used only Kunshan Run jade, than this East China Sea bottom of the jade phoenix can be much worse, the ancients cloud: gentleman without a reason, jade does not go body. Master Hu according to my view, this jade phoenix or don’t go out, just stay post body collection, is a piece of good things can be passed on to generations of children.”

I took the jade phoenix look, although history can be found, this is Yang Guifei used authentic, but even I can see, carving obviously has “Han eight knife” style, that the age of far more than the Tang Dynasty is also a long time ago, is a rare and rare jade, but this is, after all, a woman with, we keep it and what is the use of it? Might as well sell it for cash, but on second thought, why not give it to Shirley Yang, it’s not pouring buckets out, she will love it, so I nodded my head and agreed to let the fat man counting, do not count the jade phoenix in it.

Subsequently, we viewed the rest of the curiosities one by one, do not look at it, a look to know that let Uncle Ming put to us bluffing, antiques this thing, in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there have been a lot of fine imitation, it is precisely because of the value of its collection and hidden, worthy of tasting and playing to identify the authenticity of the big players to show their eyes, financial resources, verve of the space to identify authenticity of the easy to begin to be proficient in a sense, the charm of the curiosities! In a sense, the charm of antiques is also difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake, Uncle Ming this house of things, there are a lot of things that look like the real, but the finer points of identification, with a hand touch the nose smell, we know that the value is not high, most of them are filled with the appearance of the furnishings.

The fat man in a rage, to take Uncle Ming’s ribs as a rubbing board, Uncle Ming hurried to find me begging for mercy, used to be in order to support the facade, so get such a house things to set up, in the South Seas hard work collected half a lifetime of antiques, most of which are for his two baby son to pay off the gambling debt, he is actually close to dumping his family, or else it would not be possible to spell the old man to go to the Kunlun Mountains, but these things inside, it is not all fake, individual a few pieces or a very good However, not all of these things are fake, and a few of them are still worth a lot of money.

I waved my hand at Fatty, forget it, he can’t spit out gold bars even if I beat him up, let’s clear out the fakes first and see what’s left. At that moment, and the big gold teeth, fat man hands, rummage through the box will be this many artifacts for inventory, fat man thought he had a unique vision, picking up a dark red lotus-shaped bowl, said: “the old Hu Lao Jin you look at, this is definitely kiln glaze, the bowl of the outer glaze is as deep red as blood, the inside is full of striped glaze flowers, I look at the Panjiayuan specializing in the porcelain of the baldy Lee took a similar, he said the color, called chicken blood, and the color is not the color, so it is called chicken blood. He said the color, called chicken blood red or vermilion red, the internal stripes called rain wall, look like rain down the wall down the water like, if it is Jun kiln, pour fucking can also be worth a lot of money.”

Dajinya took over the look: “Fat master your eyes are really high, which has so many kiln porcelain, as the saying goes, kiln porcelain, worth ten thousand gold, I have not seen a few pieces of these years full of counting the complete, jun porcelain no pair, kiln change no double, idle where to see, glaze color red as rouge for the most, green as green, purple as black, it’s kiln change called earthworms go mud pattern, that is, the glaze presents a winding line in the glaze, and the glaze will be a good place to see. In the glaze presents a winding extension, length varies, from top to bottom of the glaze marks, as earthworms wandering with the soil, very unique, first of all, this vessel is not a bowl, this is a pen wash, the color is rose red, purple Jun imitations, imitation of the rich and incomparable grape violet, no matter from the shape, glaze, foot, bubbles, the tire, are not the real thing, but only the Republic of China’s late high-profile, may be suzhou over there! out, it would be good to be worth a thousand dollars.”

I said to the fat man and big gold teeth: “fake inside also have imitation exquisite, although not as valuable as the real, but better than a piece of scrap, maybe we can also take to go to play the foreign stake, looking for foreigners in exchange for some foreign exchange coupons.” Said the pen wash packaged collection, these messy real fake antique artifacts, there is a very attractive to my eyes, that is also a porcelain, tire gauge neat, white glaze porcelain teacups, shaped like the Great Hall of the People meeting, the chiefs with the kind of cup, but the work seems to be more sophisticated, texture is very good, of course, or it is that the strong characteristics of the era is most appealing, the cup handle for the sickle and axe shape, lid with the red five stars, the cup is a very good, the cup has the most attractive, the cup has the most attractive, the cup has the most appealing, the cup handle for the sickle and axe shape, the lid has the red five stars on the lid. The cup has a handle in the shape of a sickle and axe, a lid with a red five-star and fist symbol, the words “for the realization of the country’s industrialization”, and a quotation on the front of the cup that reads, “Carrying out the general line and the general task in all work.

I asked Uncle Ming: “This cup should not be a fake, but I do not know which head of the leftover, you are from where to trade back?”

Uncle Ming said this is certainly not fake, is a mainland friend sent two years ago, said to be out of print, the value of this cup can not be low, is a typical republican cultural relics, you will take it well, the rest of the things more or less stay a few pieces to me.

Fatty looked and said: “I seem to have such a set in my home before, or my old man issued at the meeting, when I was still small, all let the old Hu lets me from the home to go out by the way, take the slingshot son as a target to break, on this broken cup can be worth money?”

Dajinya said: “That era, and even now when the meeting was issued to the heads of the cups are similar, but this one is certainly not the same, you see this cup with the paragraph, is Zhang Songtao’s inscription, as well as Jingdezhen City, the first porcelain paintings craft cooperatives, the cup can not be too much, as far as I know, this is certainly special for the central Lushan meeting ordered at that time, which is a major Political task, mobilized Jingdezhen painting porcelain famous hand specializing in painting porcelain, it is not much, Songtao paragraph is even more rare, has a high value, as out of print, perhaps now the value is not highlighted, but with the passage of years, this cup will be more and more valuable.”

I hold up the teacup to appreciate again and again, this is if you set up at home to drink water, is not with the head of a feeling? Although this is not what the true meaning of antiques, but not only exquisite craftsmanship, unique style, the number of very rare, more rare is that it has witnessed the history of change, has a layer of deep special meaning, in line with the measurement of the value of antiques in the five words “old, few, fine, beautiful, good” in the: fine and fewer words, if it can be matched with the complete set, then the value may also be more than ordinary Ming Dynasty. Value may also exceed the ordinary Ming ware, it seems that Uncle Ming these things, there are still a few good things, although not as big as our expected harvest, but also some of an unexpected gain.

Uncle Ming room furnishings in most of the artifacts, are from the hands of antique dealers, “a shot” to buy over to fill the facade, the so-called “a shot”, that is, a large number of artifacts at the same time, most of which are before and after the Republic of China’s high imitation, the pseudo-authenticity of a very high degree, although it is not worth the price. Price, will not be as unusual as the general Sibei goods are worthless, and these things inside, there are so many real good things, so the three jittery, will be a piece of stuff divided into categories, by the identification of the big gold tooth is not worth the money, are piled up in the corner of the room.

With the clean-up operation in depth, sandalwood shelves on the things less and less, Uncle Ming’s face is also more and more ugly, this time the fat man to see the inconspicuous place there is an alabaster pot, Uri Uboshi, appears to be earthy, think this pot is not good, hand according to the pile of substandard products in the corner of the thrown out, the big gold tooth was sniffing a small bronze Buddha, suddenly see see the fat man thrown out of the alabaster pot, and suddenly opened his mouth wide, the big gold tooth was sniffing a small bronze Buddha. He opened his mouth wide, stared straight at the parabola of the alabaster pot falling from the air, even the bronze Buddha in his hand was not wanted, and stretched out his two hands, and I don’t know why his hands could be so sharp at such a time? Surprisingly, he caught the alabaster pot before it fell to the ground and shattered, Dajinya’s brain was sweating: “Fat master you can really be an ancestor, if I just didn’t see it at a glance, this pot will let you shatter it with your hand.”

The fat man said: “What’s all the fuss about, this broken pot of dirt, even the luster of the alabaster is gone, and I do not know from where the gutter out, who is still willing to spend money to sell?”

I also think that this pot is not good-looking, the shape can be, but the tire is too bald, the lack of how many generations of people rubbing and playing with the sense of light and moisture, that is, we commonly known as the ancient pot on the surface of the “pulp”, simply can not see a good, but the big gold teeth can rarely look away, could it be that this is actually a valuable thing?

Big gold teeth carefully touched the pot body, and sniff with the nose two sniff: “Do not look at this alabaster pot inconspicuous, this is the Ming Dynasty antiquities, which is called the shape of the tendon capsule, we can see the modern Ming Dynasty alabaster, there is no smooth and smooth on the surface of the plasma, because ninety percent of all the tombs are poured out of the Ming, the fetus in the soil buried in the more than a year, even if some of the original glossy are also soaked in soil, plus the plasma on that Soil soaked, coupled with that period of craftsmanship has not been improved, just slightly clarified clay, more impurities, so the perception of the initial is not better than the Qing Dynasty pot, but this is a real Ming ware.”

I and the fat man, the big gold teeth three people satisfied with the alabaster pots wrapped up, and finally picked out a total of two dozen things, I do not know the day has been late, look at the time, more than nine o’clock in the evening, the people are busy point goods, naturally did not care about dinner, the fat man said to come to see the mouth of the hutong there is a restaurant, first go to eat on the meal and then go home. So we picked up something to pull the leg to go, originally did not intend to bring Uncle Ming together, but Uncle Ming seems to be unable to give up it those few things, cheeky and hard to follow.

I said to Uncle Ming while walking: “I can’t imagine that your old man from the beginning with us to play with the heart, the home of the thing is not a few decent, this time, even if we admit bad luck, only to receive these things that do not take the stage, to give you a big discount, we are now even two clear, and so on, after dinner, really should go their own way, A Xiang’s matter to Shirley Yang, certainly not a problem. Surely not half a problem, as the saying goes, a woman is too big to stay, I don’t think she intends to go home with you again, so you don’t have to worry about her anymore.”

Uncle Ming said: “Hu old brother you see you and so outgoing, although we did not talk about marriage, but this time the life and death together so many days, is not a general friendship? In the future, naturally, we still have to move around more, I now do not want to go to Tibet to do lama, this meal by me to please, we can eat while discussing the future business things ……”.

I thought not good, Hong Kong farmers are determined to eat me, this time has come to the intersection of the fat man said the restaurant, I look at the original is a sell fried noodles of the museum, busy fork Uncle Ming’s words, said to the crowd: “Uncle Ming a kind of hospitality to invite brothers to rub rice, but the time is too late, we do not have to ruthlessly slaughter him, with this and eat a bowl of fried noodles to it, Uncle Ming you are in Beijing time Uncle Ming, you’ve been in Beijing for a long time, are you used to the food in Beijing?”

A mention of food Fatty on the energy, not waiting for Uncle Ming to open his mouth, grabbed said: “Beijing snacks ninety-nine, dishes three hundred and three, all let you eat enough, not too modestly, I am basically tasted all, but the fat master I’m still on the mutton love of lamb, Dong Lai Shun shabu-shabu, barbecue season roasted lamb, Bai Kui burned lamb, Yue Sheng Zhai sauce mutton, the four big shabu-shabu, roasted, burned, sauce, put the mutton, roasted, burned and sauced, the four big, the mutton, roasted and sauced. The flavor of mutton is really excellent. Since Uncle Ming wants to treat us and we can’t refuse, why don’t we go to Barbecue Season? Eating fried noodles is just too meaningless.”

Uncle Ming may now really poor, heard the fat man to go to the barbecue season, hurriedly said: “barbecue meat we often eat are tired of eating, fried pimples, fried noodles, the best water pull piece, this is Beijing’s three major flavors, I will be in the South Seas have been known for a long time, but never had the opportunity to taste, let’s now go together to eat eat look good.”

Speaking, four people stepped into the restaurant, the store is not big, belongs to Beijing everywhere, the most common kind of fried noodles hall, inside the environment is not clean, but still can let a person eat to go to this store to do things, this time there are only some sporadic diners, we picked up a clean table around the sit down, the first to ask for a few bottles of beer and two pots of head, it did not take long for the waiter to give each person to come up with a big bowl of noodles, Fatty! Not very satisfied, complaining that Uncle Ming can not afford to spend money.

Dajinya today quite high spirits, eating fried noodles on the crowd Kan said: “In fact, fried pimples and water pull piece, are poor people in old Beijing to eat things, but this fried noodles are poor poor eat, rich rich eat, eat fried noodles if you pay attention to up, according to the top eat, that is also very fine, delicate is not delicate mainly depends on the surface code child, this surface code child a to complete, two to fresh. The green bean mouth, toon sprouts, blanched leeks cut into sections. Celery, bamboo shoots and garlic should be broken into two cloves. Bean sprouts, remove the roots, top flower with thorns of the cucumber to cut thin julienne. Heart beauty, cut a few batches of children, blanched beans, chopped diced, small water wicker with green tassels. The chili pepper and sesame oil is drizzled a little bit, and mustard foam is poured into the spicy nose. Although the fried noodles are only a small bowl, seven dishes and eight bowls are noodles.”

Uncle Ming heard, praised again and again, to the big gold teeth put up a big finger: “So gold teeth son not only good eyesight, but also know the way of food, and casually speak out words are all rules, really talented, after you say so, the emperor also eat to this extent, this fried noodles really good.” Uncle Ming borrowed the words and said to me: “I have a very good idea, to my business mind, gold teeth boy’s shrewd know-how, as well as the fat boy’s courage, coupled with Hu old man you’re a gold fixed points of the secret art, almost everyone has a unique talent, our group of people if we can work together to seek development, it can be said to be the golden combination, as long as we’re willing to do, the opportunities are, is the golden mountain As long as we are willing to do, there are many opportunities, even the gold mountain, I am afraid that it is not difficult to earn, life is a life, the grass and trees in the fall, which do not want to be rich and prosperous in this life? If we don’t fight now, when will we wait?”

Dajinya listened to Uncle Ming’s words with incitement, can’t help but be moved, also asked me: “Master Hu, brother is also the meaning of this, now Panjiayuan business is really can’t do, now more and more fakes, the real thing is more and more less and less, pointing to this to earn a living, that is certainly sooner or later to starve to death, although I have the power of the eye, but point to shoveling the land and can receive a few real things? How many real things can I get from shoveling? I heard that there are a lot of ancient tombs in the mountains over the two lakes, why don’t we take the opportunity to make a few big tickets, and we won’t have to worry about food and drink for the rest of our lives.”

I temporarily did not take a position, my mind is made up, but also want to listen to the fat man’s thoughts, so asked the fat man: “Uncle Ming and the big gold teeth words you have heard, are the words of the heart, small fat what do you mean in the future might as well also say?”

Fatty raised the bottle of beer to pour two mouths, said with a big grin: “According to say that I bend my head to the children’s cattle, is born to serve the people’s life, to where are when the grandson, this life net to others as a gun, but we talk to this, this time I’ll say a few words out of my heart, I said that the old gold and Uncle Ming is not my criticism of the two of you, the two of you are really enough to be a grandson, you are not stupid, but the problem is that you also have a few words. Not stupid, but the problem is that you do not take other people as a fool ah, if we work together to fight, you two of this virtue, one has an old disease asthma, one on the age of a stomach of bad water, that fucking digging hole digging soil, climb in and out of the hard work of tired work …… and that play life errands, not all of them are me and old Hu? I told you that, willing to fight you two partners to pour their own, no one stop you, but the fight this piece we have been playing left over tired, the future fat master I want to go to the United States to make money.”

The fat man’s words are straightforward, and immediately choked Uncle Ming and Dajinya speechless, Dajinya froze for a long time, before asking me: “Master Hu, this …… is true? You really decided to go to the United States with Ms. Yang? That that …… what good is the United States, although the United States developed material civilization, but not everything, we do not say elsewhere, let’s just say that our Beijing, the Temple of Heaven’s moon, the Great Wall of the wind, Lugouqiao lions, Tan Tuo Temple of pine, the East single West single drum tower in front of five altars and eight temples Summer Palace, the Wangfujing before the Dajie, the Panjiayuan Liulimao, the places even if he how broad the United States, the United States is the most important thing to do to help you. Even if the U.S. is broader, can the U.S. have them? Will never have, besides, how can you give up these relatives and old friends of ours?”

I listen to the big gold teeth more and more excited, is moving the real feelings, although the big gold teeth a traitor, but he and Uncle Ming is different, he and I and Fatty have a common experience, the year inserted into the team of young people, regardless of each other to recognize or not, regardless of inserted into the team to go to what is where, as long as the mention of when the young people, the relationship between each other is invisible layer of proximity, there is a kind of life together with a sense of affinity, just now Fatty will be the big gold teeth with the Uncle Ming compared, words really said some excessive, although the big gold tooth is pointing to us to get rich, but he also really can not afford to part with us, so I said to the big gold tooth: “Lao Jin, as the saying goes, the native land is difficult to leave, I also can not afford to leave China, can not afford to leave this soaked with my comrades in arms of the blood and tears of the land, and can not afford to part with my loved ones and partners, but in Tibet, I just realized that I and the Fatty surprisingly in addition to the inverted bucket, nothing, our way of thinking and the ability to live, have been unable to keep up with the progress of society, which can not be said to be a kind of sadness, and I went to so many places, saw a lot of ancient tombs in the secret artifacts, I have a kind of experience, there are some things or to let it stay in the earth forever to be good.”

Since ancient times, most of the “touch gold lieutenants”, after hanging the talisman, have chosen to recluse, accompanied by the light of the ancient Buddha through the rest of his life, because of the experience of things more, and finally inevitably will give birth to an epiphany, one is to take the life for the money is not worth it, the tomb of the secret artifacts are dead, is because the world’s possessive of it, so that the value of it, in order to These objects in the depths of the earth to take the life is too uneconomical, although the gold and jade is good, but not more precious than their own lives.

In addition, the most important thing, valuable stuff is the source of all evil, the ancient mound in the artifacts, almost every piece is worth a lot of money, if you can successfully excavate an ancient tomb, you can make a fortune, but regardless of the motivation, to take the wealth of their own spending or not, used to help the weak and the poor or not, those artifacts, after all, to flow into the community, which will lead to countless fights, blood and rain, these artifacts caused by the all the sins to discuss the The origin, I am afraid that in the final analysis should be attributed to the excavation of it out of the “gold touching officer”.

I said to the big gold teeth: “They say that the long life three bitter three happy, but try to look at our old three sectors of this group of people’s miserable life, really all the way to the bumpy and rugged, that eat the bitter we have eaten, the crime we have not been less, but to this day to mix into the individual, are not much success, almost at the edge of the elimination of the community, I do not think that we can not put the future destiny and hope in the whole I think we can not put the future fate and hope all rely on the bucket, that way, the future road can only go narrower and narrower, we never want to bow to fate, so I want to go to the United States, Fatty and I, in a new environment to start over, learn something new, the general line and the general mission to implement all the work, to create a different life and now.”

Fatty wondered, “What is the general line and general mission? I remember we’ve never formulated such a plan, so don’t think of one.”

I said, “I also saw that Lushan Conference teacup before I thought of it, in the future our general line is to get rich, the general task is to make money, I heard that the Chinese community in the United States has a place called Little Taipei, and so on in the future we make more money, we also want to build a small Beijing in the American Empire side, corrupting that gang of Yankees.”

Big gold teeth with tears in his eyes said to me, “or Master Hu is to do great things people, such a grand goal I never dare to think, how about taking brother the first road over to build a small Beijing, we will let that gang of Yankees all change their mouths, all day long to eat stick noodles post cake two pots of head, Wang Zhihe’s stinky tofu chili oil …… ”

The fat man interface: “Hardman cigarettes smoke two mouths, fishing to kill the family sing a night, Beijing from the early years there are three great, Beijing opera, ice candy gourds, courtyard, fat master I got rich, on the Empire State Building on the fucking inserted full of ice candy gourds.” Said the three together laughed, as if at this moment has stood in the Empire State Building roof, the Manhattan neighborhood scenery as far as the eye can see.

After joking for a while, easing the atmosphere, I asked Dajinya if what he just said was a joke? Did he really want to go to America with us? Dajinya’s father’s health is not good, my family are in the dry rest home retirement, fat people have no one else, so Dajinya can not be the same as us, leaving the family to leave their homes, and this go is to go to the United States across the ocean.

Dajinya very solemn said: “I just advised you not to go to the United States, that is not willing to let go of the two masters ah, you go far away, leaving me alone in the Panjiaoyuan and what is the meaning of it? To tell you the truth, I have seen through, Panjiayuan’s business for another ten years, or now the meaning of this, I have long been thinking of going overseas to find gold, our ancestors left behind the antiquities, there are countless unique items have fallen in foreign countries, if I go to the United States to make a fortune, the first is to collect a few real things, which is the brother’s lifelong wish, and secondly is to take the family’s old man also took the old man to enjoy the blessings of a few days, but I do not have any overseas relations, but I do not have the right to go to the United States, I have a lot of money. I’ve heard that the United States of America is not only a highly developed material civilization, but also culturally compatible and inclusive, and even the people of the cockroaches and thieves to the other side have a use for it. …”

I thought more people are also lively, save me and fat man to the monotony of life over there, but Shirley Yang is not a trafficker after all, so I had to temporarily promised Dajinya, go back and talk for him.

So I and the fat man, the big gold teeth three people began to calculate, how to how to put the hands of things as soon as possible to find the next home out of the house, three people in total how much money can be put together, after arriving in the United States to go to see where the striptease show …… talk about the hot and heavy, on the treat to eat fried noodles of Uncle Ming cold on the sidelines, almost as if he was non-existent, but Uncle Ming himself can’t forget himself: “Is there any mistake ah, you guys think the American world is so good to fish? But then again, strayed to the United States of America’s treasure is indeed quite a lot, it is said that the world’s most valuable piece of Chinese porcelain – Yuan Qinghua Chunhua Tianyuan bottle, in the hands of a collector in the fallen cedar machine, as well as the Qianlong large Jade Mountain, is also in the United States, each is worth a lot of money, why don’t I go with you guys, we want to think of ways to take this bottle Exchange over, in the future, when there is enough money, you can also continue to do the business of ancient corpses, this kind of business is the fastest way to get money.”

I said to Uncle Ming: “If you want to go to the United States, that is your own business, we have no right to stop you from going, but the idea of us together, are from the Kunlun Mountain ghost gate in the two circles and back, I have to advise you, you are this age, to the United States, after a small business to do a little antique, enough for their own old age on the line, don’t think of the net to rise again to pour the Dumpling, haven’t you learned your lesson from the Kunlun Mountains? Even if the glacier crystal corpse transported back, money is earned, but the wife is gone, goddaughter is not with you, there are only two sons left, this business is a loss or profit you still do not know how to calculate? The dead body that is worth more money is not as valuable as a living person.”

After saying these words, I also even to Uncle Ming to do kindness to the end, see almost also eat and drink enough, said goodbye to Uncle Ming, with the fat man big gold teeth to return home.

Although the decision to go to the United States, can not say go away, there are many things to deal with before leaving the country, the big gold tooth’s home in Beijing, this period of time he and the fat man two people sell antiques, I am back to Fujian to visit relatives, and then went to visit the families of several fallen comrades, during which also went to the fat man and the ever-insertion of the Inner Mongolia to take a trip before and after a total of nearly two months of time, before all the things to be busy finish.

Back to Beijing, it is already winter, from the day we go abroad, only a few days of time, now all the things have been prepared, recently is every day busy with acquaintances drink goodbye, this day Shirley Yang want to go out with me to see the winter of Beijing, so I took her to the Beihai Park.

Because of the night of the northwest wind, the ground looks extraordinarily clean, 1983 the end of this winter is extraordinarily cold, the air seems to be frozen, an inhalation of air feel is to the stomach to suck the ice ballast, choking the lungs raw pain, to the day the wind is much smaller, but the sky is gray, can not see the sun in what position, may be in the sky before it gets dark down, it will be a big snow, the Beihai Park is located in the northwestern corner of the Forbidden City, has a More than a thousand years of history, was the Liao, Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties of the royal “forbidden garden”.

Walking in the lake, looking at the Beihai Lake in the Qiongdao White Tower, with a few winter depression, I think in the winter here is really nothing worth playing, can go to the country far away in the near future, do not know which year and month can come back to Beijing, can not help but here on the white towers of the red walls of some of the fondness, the weather is cold, but also do not care too much.

Shirley Yang’s excitement is very high, she has been received in advance to the United States to settle down, in the United States treatment of mental illness, Professor Chen, the condition of the recovery has also greatly improved, this time to see the frozen lake there are many ice skaters, of which there are a few people are in the winter of every year in the ice rink to play the veteran, are wearing a flower blade, from time to time to show off all kinds of tricks, from time to time, as the dragonfly pointing to the water, and then it seems to be like purple swallows through the waves, will be with me stopped to watch, and I will not stop to watch. Then with me stopped to watch, Shirley Yang said to me: “here can be really lively, in the winter of the classical garden skating this fun, I’m afraid only in Beijing.”

I casually replied: “Of course, even if it is the blue waves of the five lakes, the water of the four seas, are not as beautiful as skating on the Beihai Lake.”

Shirley Yang asked me: “Listen to your meaning of this reluctant to leave, is not a little regret to go to the United States with me? I know that this matter is a little difficult for you, but I am really very worried that you will go back to the bucket again, if I don’t watch you every day in the United States, I simply can’t rest assured.”

I said, “There’s no turning back, I’ve already made up my mind to go to the U.S., of course I won’t regret it, although I do feel a bit reluctant to leave China, but after I’ve carried out the general line and general mission thoroughly, I can still bring you back to play again.” Said words, from the coat pocket took out a “touch gold talisman” to Shirley Yang see: “You see this, I and fat man have taken off the talisman, is considered to be the pot of gold, this life will not do the hook of the fight, unless it is tired of living, we will do some solid business. ”

The “gold touching lieutenants” have to bring the “gold touching talisman”, which is equivalent to a work permit, but also in a sense, it also represents the “luck”, once hung on the neck must never be removed! Because once it is taken off, it also implies the interruption of “luck”, and if it is put on again, it will not get the blessing of the Grandmaster, and only when it is decided to end one’s career, will one choose to “take off the talisman”, which is equivalent to the “gold pot wash up” in the Greenwood Road. “Very few people will return to their old profession after removing the talisman. Elder Dust is an exception, in order to assist Shirley Yang’s grandfather Partridge Whistle, Elder Dust removed the talisman. In order to assist Shirley Yang’s grandfather “Partridge Whistle”, the dust elder “pick charm” after the mountain again, the result died in the black water city of Western Xia treasure cave.

Shirley Yang see I have long taken off the “touch of gold talisman”, looks quite touched, I said: “Since ancient times how many ancient tombs have been dug up, can be preserved, most of them have their own special place, which hides too much danger, so I always worry about you to go to the bucket, now you are finally willing to take off the touch of gold talisman, this is a good idea. Take off the gold touching talisman, this is really great, after arriving in the United States, I don’t have to worry about you sneaking back to reverse the fight again.”

I said to Shirley Yang: “I won’t come back if I don’t carry out the general line to the end, although I think America is good in every way, but it’s the food habits and life style that make it not easy for people to accept, I heard that the American diet is very monotonous, and the rice is very brown, two slices of bread that are hard as a rock and in the middle of the bread, two slices of broken tomatoes and a piece of half-baked beef are used randomly, or else the rotten vegetable leaves are chopped up and fried. Or just chopping up the leaves of rotten vegetables and eating them directly. Can this be considered a meal? I ate better than that on the front line in Yunnan. We don’t eat like this every day, do we? I think Americans are really too bad at eating and don’t know how to eat, no wonder America is so rich, it’s all from their mouths.”

Shirley Yang said, “How can I let you eat hamburgers every day, there are many Chinese restaurants in the United States, you want to eat, we can go every day, what is the meaning of life style?”

I said, “You don’t even know this? I love you this sentence in China, may not be able to say a few times a lifetime, but I heard that in the United States two couples live, I love you this sentence, a day to say once means that the couple centrifugal separation, soon to be separated and divorced, morning, noon and night to say once just enough, the best to get up and go to bed and say twice, even if it is a day to say ten times no one is too much, and sometimes long-distance phone calls just to say this sentence, rambling so many times! It’s really strange that they don’t get tired of saying it. I think this kind of legend is probably true, because I also heard that the American soldier in the battlefield was seriously wounded, dying not yet swallowed his last breath, are to instruct the comrades to pass on his wife so a sentence …… “I pretended to be dying on the air can not come down to the next breath look and then said: “The lieutenant …… promised me …… to help me pass on to my wife …… just to say that I . . that I love her.” After saying that I myself had already laughed so hard that my stomach hurt.

Shirley Yang was also amused by me, but said, “Old Hu you really have no proper form, what is there for you to laugh at, this sentence can not only be used between lovers or couples, to children parents can say, love a person, we must let the other party know, he is how important to themselves, is very normal and necessary, in the future you also have to say ten times a day. ”
