Chapter 15 Scared Souls Bridge
Shirley Yang and the youngest sister also shook their heads in succession, there was no way to believe that there would be an invisible bridge, Shirley Yang said, “In an area with a high concentration of energy, all of mankind’s common sense of physics will be out of the question, as long as the conditions allow it, even time and space will be twisted and distorted, but the special airflow that was formed at the intersection of the valleys, it is not yet so high that there will be such a high energy field.”
I smiled bitterly and said, “Master Sun Jiu is worthy of being an old comrade, carrying out the leader’s instructions is very thorough, and Shirley Yang, also worthy of being a senior student of the U.S. Naval Academy, what you all said is very reasonable, although I have seen a lot of strange and bizarre things in my life, and to be honest, I don’t believe that there are invisible invisible bridges, but I believe that the abyss in front of us is a bridge …… Scared Souls Bridge.”
(Note: Scared Soul Bridge – scared reads he, four sounds)
Professor Sun immediately refuted, “It’s simply nonsense, do you want the group to step on the eye of the wind and walk across? Although the turbulence in the mountains can suck up stones, where does it end up being swept away to? Have you calculated how heavy we are with our own weight and our equipment? Don’t say one step to the sky, if we take half a step, we’ll fall into a deep stream, we need to be rigorous and pragmatic!”
I shook my head, I didn’t say that I want to step on the air, since Guanshan pointed out that “in front of the Soul Scare Stage, the Yin River crosses the sky; the Immortal Bridge is shadowless, hard to find with the naked eye; the Rockfall Sacrifice, a step to heaven”, according to previous experience, there must be a counterpart, and this “Dragon Gate” before the “Dragon Gate”, the “Dragon Gate”, the “Dragon Gate”, the “Dragon Gate”, the “Dragon Gate”, and the “Dragon Gate”. Moreover, the T-shaped canyon in front of the Dragon Gate is one of the Huashan Roads, so I believe that there should be a so-called Shadowless Immortal Bridge in front of us, only that we have to find a way to find it out.
Shirley Yang said: “the words are good, but even if we find the shadowless immortal bridge, we can not say whether we can go through, have you ever thought of, in the tunnel entrance of the nameless dead in possession of the Taoist collection, may be a person of the former dynasty to seek the truth, if he could not find a way into the ancient tomb of the village of the immortal, the original way back is also, but look at the way of his death, it seems to have found the shadowless immortal bridge, but do not have the courage to pass, and the way of death, it seems to have found a bridge, but do not have the courage to go through. but he didn’t have the guts to pass through it and was unwilling to leave, and eventually died wandering in the tunnel.”
I heard Shirley Yang said, immediately recalled the previous front, many comrades were “trick mine” bombing death and injury, that situation is extremely tragic, there are many soldiers are not afraid of charging into battle, but only afraid of those varied, open and dark set “trick mine”.
The so-called “soldiers are not too deceitful”, the tunnel of the nameless dead, died inexplicably, in addition to a few volumes of the body of the Taoist collection, there is no extra thing that allows people to peep its identity, the ancient tombs over the generations of well-designed, more than a suspicious array of burglary, perhaps the dead body and the Guanshan refers to the fan Fu are “bait! Maybe the dead body and the Guanshan finger fan Fu are both “bait”, the Guanshan Taibao will lead the grave robbers to the extinct path of the “trick mine”.
These thoughts lingered in my mind, and my intuition, which has always been on the edge of life and death, told me, “These signs are too abnormal, and we must not be careless!”
When I thought of this, I said to Prof. Sun and Shirley Yang: “The Shadowless Immortal Bridge may not be difficult to find, but I reckon that even if we find it, we will have to take a huge risk to pass it, now the question is, can we take this risk? What if it’s a trap with no return? How can we tell if the tunnel’s Guanshan Finger Maze is real or fake?”
Sun Jiuzi said with confidence, “This matter is very easy, as long as you can find a way to make the shadowless immortal bridge appears, with my rich experience in archaeological work for many years, naturally can prove that it is true or false, fake bridge can not escape from my fiery eyes of the Golden Essence, but look at the second half of the Guanshan pointed out that the content of more than with the results of my investigations coincide with the results of my investigation, so I believe that, as long as there is a shadowless immortal bridge exists, the stone inscription is eighty percent is true, so I believe, as long as there is a shadowless immortal bridge exists, the stone engraving is true. stone carving would be 80% true.”
I slightly pondered, think it is such a reason, said other useless, now we should first think of ways to “shadowless immortal bridge” to find, I and Shirley Yang discussed a few words, but who can not think of a what kind of bridge is not visible to the naked eye, Shirley Yang speculated that perhaps there is another hidden meaning is also not known.
I thought to myself: “What does it mean to fall to the rock and give up one step to the sky? Could it be that it means jumping into mid-air with a rock in your arms?” A flash of insight: “No, falling rock is in the front, giving up one’s life is in the back, if it means holding the rock lifelessly and barring down, it should be giving up one’s life to fall rock, falling rock and giving up one’s life maybe it means to push down the rock first, and then only then can you make a move to give up one’s life.”
I use my eyes to sweep, see the tunnel there are many different sizes of broken rock, so stand around thinking, where can get the key? Never mind how he fell rock, first pick up a big rock to push down to explore, then greeted the fat man to help, the two came to a few hundred pounds of rock side, first pushed two, the boulder shook slightly, the material can be pushed.
The rest of the people also want to come over to help, the fat man waved his hand: “Everyone, do not need to come over, on the side of the Hou it, hurry to give the fat master to make a place out, do not pressure bad your feet.” He said that the first two buckles of the belt loosened, he was worried about a force to the belt to the taut break.
Fatty has the intention to show off, put me also pushed aside, I worry that he exerted too much, followed by a rock was swept away by the turbulence, that can really become “rock fall body”, take “tiger claw” will be his shoulder load-bearing belt hanging, and the rest of the three people in the back of the pulling to be protected.
Fatty rolled up his sleeves, looking at the heart of the hand spit two mouths of spittle, pull open the bow and arrow step, with the shoulder against the huge rock, took a deep breath, transported in the dantian, shaking all the Jianzi meat, thunderbolt also seems to drink: “open ah!”
Just see that big rock rumbled before the fall, because of the self-weight is very great, and close to the tunnel exit, and was not “Dragon Gate” before the turbulence sucked, hit the cliffs tumbled down the deep stream full of mist.
Because the distance between the two sides of the mountain stream is very close, the rock tumbled and rolled down, in the crags back and forth between the collision, issued by the dull echo of the rumbling, we heard in the tunnel entrance, only feel the canyon is unfathomable, a good half day did not hear the sound of boulder landing.
People see the fat man pushed down the mountain rock, but “scared platform” in front of the invisible bridge, there is no sign of abnormality, can not help but some frustration, is about to fail to give another plan, but suddenly in the bottom of the ear feel a burst of noisy movement.
At this time the mountain rock is still not on the ground, the mountain wall in addition to the reverberation of the roar, as if there are thousands of pots of hot water boiling up at the same time, followed by the sound of boiling water and then turned to stir frying salt beans like noise, dense churning people’s ear bones vaguely painful, I thought bad: “Rock fall out of the trouble, how to be good?”
Professor Sun and the youngest sister, but also by that noisy and dense chaotic ringing alarmed by fear, could not help but backward two steps, Shirley Yang put the Golden Steel umbrella in front of them, said: “Do not panic, I am afraid it is the shadowless fairy bridge out.”
In the ear complicated dense sound suddenly and tight, this feeling is like standing in front of the ghost gate, face countless from the underworld in the struggle to escape from the evil spirits in general, shocked the heart fluttering God shaking, at a loss, I take back the “Flying Tiger claw”, returned in Shirley Yang hands, then secretly hold tightly the engineer shovel, the heart is extremely uneasy: “Is it possible that the bridge in front of the Soul Scare Stage was built by the Yin soldiers? The arrangement of the ancient tomb of the Earth Immortal Village, it is true that the gods and immortals can not guess it …….”
Fatty is also face change color, pull open style, hold up the bead fast offspring aimed at the mid-air, no matter what it is up, first shot it dozens of penetrating armor cones and then say.
Just when all the people are afraid of fear, suddenly a stream of black smoke from the bottom of the valley rushed in the air, I was shocked and even more unexpected, called: “What is this?” Take a closer look, feel even eyes are almost blurred, is actually countless palm-sized golden rain swallows, frightened from the bottom of the cliffs, immediately wrapped by the turbulence between the canyon, swarms of swarms of mixed to do a mess, the number of dazzling, afraid of not less than one hundred thousand of the crowd.
Swiftlet is good at nesting between the cliffs and walls, and they belong to the cluster organisms, more often than not a swiftlet hole, there can be hundreds of thousands of swiftlets, their generation with saliva condensed into the swiftlet nest is extremely valuable, because most of the swiftlet holes are located in the topography of the absolute danger, so the person who picks the nests of the swiftlet have to be able to climb up the high rocks and the risk of giving and the return on the earnings is very big.
It turns out that at the bottom of the crags of the “Scared Soul Platform”, there are many nesting caves of swiftlets, and the fat man pushed down the rock to scare a large group of swiftlets out of their nests, and the swiftlets have a common name in the folklore, called “wind drilling”, and they are the most adept at flying with the wind, and there are even legends that they can sleep in the wind. Said they can sleep in the wind, and the speed is amazing, flying fast as lightning, at the moment, tens of thousands of swallows in the sky, to the mouth of the gorges, were “Yinhe” invisible air flow rolled.
Golden rain swallow sex like cluster, was vortex rolled into a ball, a moment sucked in the eye of the wind can not break free, swallow group is so dense that almost even the gap is not there, the bottom of the gorge to fly up more rain swallow group, but also a steady stream of joining the swallow array.
The original airflow converging from the three sides of the gorge was immediately blocked by the swarms of golden rain swallows, and the invisible “Yin River” was filled up in no time, while tens of thousands of swallows also blocked the turbulence coming from several directions, filling up the area in front of the dragon gate of the T-shaped gorge tightly and without any gap. Tens of thousands of swallows also blocked the turbulence from several directions, filling the area in front of the “T” canyon gantry tightly, forming an incredible “Swallow Bridge”.
I sucked in a breath of cold air: “The original shadowless immortal bridge …… is built by a large group of golden rain swallows!” See in front of the tens of thousands of flying entangled swallows, as if staying frozen in the wind, purely witnessed, it is difficult to believe that the spectacle seen in the eyes.
But I know, this spectacle can only last for a short moment, with the craggy cave out of the gold silk rain swallows more and more, the swallows will soon be able to break through the turbulence, each with the wind to fly apart, that “shadowless immortal bridge” will once again become a shadowless.
And then want to wait until all the swallows return to their nests, to be able to re-compose the bridge, during which I do not know how much time, in order to sacrifice oneself to seek immortality, at this time we must put life and death behind us, and risk our lives to set foot on this “Swallow Bridge”, step on the swallows to break through the “Dragon Gate” in front of the tomb of the Wuyang King. “I don’t know how many gold threads are packed into a ball.
I don’t know whether the swallows can be strong enough to hold people, and to cross the bridge, it is like flying over the waves, a foot will fall into the abyss, the bridge across the Dragon Gate, is unpredictable, once the “Bridge of the Immortals”, a moment and a half within the withdrawal of the Immortals to leave the “Guanshan Is it credible or not?
Philosophers say that “character determines destiny”, because the character of the various choices on the road of life, can also be understood as “life is composed of countless choices”, I have always been open-minded, but to make me open-minded, at least I have to feel that there are I have always been open-minded, but in order for me to be open-minded, at least I have to feel that I have more than 30% certainty, and now I don’t even have half a percent of confidence, not daring to cross the bridge, but worrying about whether I will fall into a trap after crossing the bridge.
These thoughts in the brain flashed two flashes, but now this situation can not be more thought, I swept a glance to the side of the crowd, want to see what they envision, whether they need to be immobile as a mountain, wait and see what happens, or even wait for a day and a half, with full certainty and then go not too late.
The fat man on the side is looking at the liver trembling, scolded: “good old demon Guanshan tomb raiding, eighty percent and his lover separated for many years, otherwise how would play this set of the seventh day of the seventh month magpie bridge ghost trick, this bird bridge which is for people to walk ah?”
Professor Sun was overjoyed, exclaimed: “This is simply a miraculous fairy bridge ah, Fatty Wang you and Hu Bayi two people, not always bragging about their own everything dare to do a great man good man? How? Now afraid? This is a step to heaven’s absolute danger, boldly walk is, the dragon bone trigrams are in front, the golden silk swallow bridge will be scattered at any time, we have to hurry to cross the bridge!”
Fatty pulled Professor Sun: “What manly man? On the bridge all have to fall down and fall into stinky beans pay! The fat master I ……” he said, but suddenly snatched step out, a stagger on the golden rain swallows piled up “fairy bridge”, the mountain stream in the turbulence scraped him to the east and west, he seemed to want to struggle from the swallows pile up, but his hands and feet fell into a hole in the ground. He seemed to struggle to get up from the swallows, but his hands and feet immediately fell down, and he tumbled to the front of the golden swallow bridge.
I know that the fat man has always been afraid of heights, his phobia belongs to the psychological disorder, in fact, nothing special reaction, it is soft legs and eyes dizzy, sometimes in specific material conditions can be overcome, take the airplane when he drank medicine to sleep, in my opinion, this is not a big deal, but I never thought that he went ahead of the swallows on the bridge, which is too much out of line with his style, and I lack of sufficient preparation for this, I did not even have time to reach out and stop him, and he did not even have time to reach out and stop him. I didn’t even have time to reach out and stop him.
But I immediately realized that, and then want to drag him back has been impossible, things have come to this point, we can only “shoulder word” on the same, at least can not let him alone a “folded” on the opposite side, and then called to the crowd: “Do not be afraid, this bridge is strong enough to The bridge is strong enough to hold people, everyone cross the bridge to go!”
In the noisy swallows cry, I dragged Professor Sun, Shirley Yang tugged the youngest sister, four people rushed up to the bridge, only to hear the ear change all the whimpering and whistling sound of the wind, in a moment was sucked by the air flow, the body seems to be in a weightless state, the feet simply do not make the force, involuntarily fell forward.
