Chapter 839
I pulled Xiaoxuan and walked down carefully.
Halfway through, we could hear the sound of water flowing below. We had no other way to go. Other roads were basically dead ends and we couldn't pass.
"Hey, Mineko?"
"What?"
Dou Sprout licked his lips to the left to let me see.
I turned around and saw Brother Yu holding Ah Chun's hand.
Douyazai said: "Didn't the two of them want to fight before? Why are they holding hands again?"
"Can you really think about it, it's hard to get down in this place alone, and if you're afraid of slipping, wouldn't it be normal for you to ask someone to help? Why don't you hold hands with me?"
"Damn it, then I don't want to be the leader, I also want to be a girl."
"Get out of here, follow the road, don't talk nonsense."
When I came down, I saw that it was an underground river with a very narrow surface.
The place where you can step on the shore is about one meter wide. There are gravels everywhere on the ground. Some of the stones are very sharp and will hurt your feet when you step on them.
He picked up a piece of the head casually, looked at it and said, "Look here, do you see it?"
"Judging from the edge marks, these crushed limestones should have been cut from large pieces of limestone."
"Is it the material not used to make the ghost cub statue?" I asked.
"That's understandable." said Tou.
I asked again: "Boss, this place is too remote and difficult to walk. If the masons who were imprisoned here once collected materials here, how did they transport it to the ground? After all, we all walked very far with bags on our backs." Effortless.”
"Look." He suddenly pointed his head towards the underground river.
"Boss, you said we should take the water route?"
"Is it possible to row a boat on such a narrow river?"
He shook his head and said: "We can only guess that it may be a small boat. It only carries good stones without passengers. It floats to the next place and then reverses the boat to deliver the stones."
"Boss! Fengzi! Stop talking!"
The bean sprouts in front of the head suddenly shouted: "Come here quickly! There is another stalactite hole ahead!"
They walked together on gravel, and when they got close to the cave, Dou Sprout flashed his flashlight.
I saw what seemed to be several large red characters about two meters above the entrance of the cave.
Dou Sprout saw it too. He looked up in surprise for a while and said, "Pan... Pansi hole?"
"What Pansi Cave,"
I raised my head and looked at it and said, "It's a seal script. It's indeed a character, but I can't see it clearly."
Because the cracks in the limestone itself are relatively large, water will seep in when it rains and the water rises. Over time and weathering, these seven or eight characters are really hard to read.
Xiaoxuan held up the flashlight and tried to say: "The cave...the cave floor is so blue...so blue."
"Cave heaven and blessed land, blue sky and yellow spring?" I blurted out almost subconsciously.
"Huh? It seems true."
Dou Yazai said doubtfully: "But it's also possible to read, blue cave sky, underworld blessed land."
I thought to myself, "The words "Blue Falling Yellow Spring" are mentioned on the temple stele of Guizai Temple. Could it be that this is the place it is referring to?"
We carried our bags on our backs, stepped on the gravel, and walked in with flashlights.
This cave is naturally formed, but it can be seen from the faint chisel marks on the wall that it has been artificially repaired.
Next to the underground river, the sound of "tick-tick-tock" water can be heard from time to time.
There are some daily necessities made of limestone in the cave. I saw a small stone table and a stone bench.
Some stone benches fell to the ground, and a layer of dust fell on them.
There is an incense burner on the stone table, made of ordinary black pottery. Behind the incense burner, there is a tablet made of stone.
And behind the stone table, with his back to us, sitting cross-legged was a skeleton of white bones.
We saw a lot of bones on the road before coming here. We were just startled but not scared.
The skeleton sitting cross-legged has a dark yellow futon under it. It can be seen that it was wearing clothes before, but it was not preserved. It was turned into tattered strips of cloth and hung horizontally on the skeleton.
At the signal with his head, Douyazai boldly walked around carefully, lifted up the stone tablet and blew on the ashes.
After blowing off the thick layer of dust, you can see that there is a line of small words engraved on the tablet, and the knife edge is clearly visible.
It is written on the tablet,
"The place where Yanxiazi came into being, in the forty-second year of Kangxi's reign, there is an inscription."
"Yanxiazi...Yanxiazi...Yanxia?"
He muttered it twice, frowned and said, "It's such a familiar name. I seem to have heard it somewhere before."
