The farmhouse is not big, with a small courtyard with a fence in front of it. In the middle of the small courtyard, you can see round, dark green, immature watermelons. From this, you can tell that the old melon seller is his own. Self-produced and sold.
"Honey, I'm back!"
The tricycle stopped in front of the fence yard, and the old melon seller jumped off the tricycle with nimble legs.
Seeing this, Liu Tingting and I got out of the car and helped the old melon seller push the tricycle into the fenced yard.
After the tricycle stopped, the old melon seller turned to me and Liu Tingting and said with a smile: "Thank you, kid. This is the Iron Coffin Gorge. You go and take pictures quickly. But remember my words, take a few pictures." Just take the photo and leave immediately.”
After listening to the old man selling melons, I nodded and casually took out my mobile phone.
Since I said I came here to take photos at Tiecoff Gorge, I had to be cool about it, or at least pretend.
I just nodded without saying a word, and deliberately took out my mobile phone to pretend to look around.
But Liu Tingting smiled and said to the old man selling melons: "Old man, why don't you come with us, and I can take a photo for you as a souvenir."
"No, old man, I have lived here all my life. When I open my eyes, I see the mountains and the water. I have long been tired of seeing them. As for the photos, forget it, old man, I can't see them anymore. You young people should take them. I’m going to make a fire for my old lady to cook.”
The old melon seller smiled and waved his hand, saying that he wanted to cook for his wife, and then walked into the house.
Looking at the farmhouse in front of me and the small fenced courtyard full of watermelons, and then looking at the scenery of the Wuxia Iron Coffin, it is really a paradise and a good place to retire.
The reason why the old man who sells melons has lived here all his life may be because of the fairyland-like beauty here. As for what he said about being tired of it, it was just a small excuse to politely refuse.
After the old man selling melons walked into the house, I turned around and walked out of the small fenced courtyard and walked straight towards the Iron Coffin Gorge.
The Yellow River has bends, and so does the Yangtze River. The river flows in front of the old melon seller's house, and then forms a sharp bend. We are right at the beginning of Tiechiao Gorge, and we have an unobstructed view of the steep and towering rocks.
"Hey, Xie Dongzi, why are you here? Is it really just to take a few photos? When did you become so artistic?"
After living under the same roof for ten years, Liu Tingting knows better than anyone what kind of person I am. She obviously doesn't believe my simple motives when she asks this.
"Nonsense, of course I'm here to take photos. Could it be that I'm here for the hanging coffin on the cliff?"
I was perfunctory and didn't tell the real purpose of my coming here, because I really didn't want Liu Tingting to get involved, so I had to keep her away if I had a chance.
"Oh my god, Xie Dongzi, do you really want to hunt for treasure in that hanging coffin? You don't want your life!"
I just said that casually, but I didn't expect Liu Tingting to actually believe it. But after all, this is what I do, and other people would think so.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Liu Tingting thought I was acquiescing, and immediately frowned slightly.
Seeing her sudden expression, I asked with some confusion: "What? I'm going to steal the treasure from the hanging coffin. Is there any problem?"
Liu Tingting glanced at me sideways, then looked directly in the direction of Tiecoff Gorge, and said with a gloomy face: "The dragon veins in the world are nothing more than mountains and rivers. Mountains are majestic mountains, although they are turbulent rivers. , in the eyes of ordinary people who know Feng Shui, this Iron Coffin Gorge can be regarded as the hidden dragon's veins, and this is the entrance to the dragon's veins."
Liu Tingting pointed to the starting point of Iron Coffin Gorge, and then continued: "It seems that this is an excellent burial place for dragons to gather energy, but in fact it is a very evil place, because here is the double dragon head. pulse!"
Hearing what Liu Tingting said was clear and logical, I became interested, so I asked her what the double dragon head pulse was, and by the way, I learned some dragon-hunting methods that only Liu Tingting, a Golden Gate expert, knew.
Seeing me asking, Liu Tingting put on an inscrutable look and continued: "Double dragon head veins, there is only one dragon vein under this earth vein, but it was cut in half by the river. It seems like this The two mountains on the left and right have nothing to do with each other, but in fact they are connected under the mountains."
"Originally, one dragon was supposed to be sucking water, but now an extra head has been born, and it has turned into two dragons grabbing water. Fighting is fighting, and fighting is fierce. No one can be buried in this dangerous place. If you bury the branch of Dingsheng, as for the iron coffin The hanging coffin on the cliff of the gorge is precisely because it is impossible to bury here, but we want to draw the shade of the dragon vein, so we hung the coffin on the cliff!"
To be honest, I usually don't have the slightest fondness for Liu Tingting. She is unruly and unreasonable. Now that she is stalking her again, I really want to send her away right away. Get into the rolling river and let her swim back to her hometown.
However, every time Liu Tingting talked about how to find the dragon as the descendant of Touching Gold, I admired and respected her from the bottom of my heart, and even had the urge to hug her thigh. I didn’t know how I could do it. Such a despicable thought.
Bang bang bang...!
"Wow, wow, it's really better to listen to my sister than to study for ten years!" I clapped my hands and praised.
"Who is your sister? Can you call me sister?"
Liu Tingting turned around and gave me a fierce look.
We have already arrived at the Iron Coffin Gorge, and we haven't found the Nalai Miao Village for the time being. It would be good to simply learn more professional knowledge.
So I smiled and replied: "Okay, I'll call you Sister Ting from the head office. Keep going, don't stop, and tell me more about it to my brother!"
"Huh, that's pretty much it!"
Liu Tingting smiled proudly and was about to continue showing off her skills. But at this moment, a shrill howl suddenly came from the house of the old melon seller.
"No, something may have happened to the old man. Go and have a look!"
I heard the howl, I suddenly came back to my senses, shouted at Liu Tingting, and then rushed into the small fenced courtyard again, towards the simple house.
The house is not big, the kind where you are facing the kitchen where the fire is cooking as soon as you enter. At this time, a large firewood pot is rising with steam for cooking.
There were two rooms on the left and right. The door of one of the rooms was locked. There was a thick layer of dust on the lock. It looked like it had not been opened for a long time.
The door of the other room was open, and it was extremely dark inside. The window, which was not much larger than an old-fashioned TV, was also blocked tightly, and the remaining light was all refracted by this door.
The room was so dark that I couldn't see clearly what was going on in the room, but when I rushed in, I smelled a strong and pungent smell, which was also mixed with a smell of rotting corpses. the taste of.
I couldn't think too much, thinking that something must have happened to the old melon seller and his wife. I immediately planned to rush into the dark room with a strange smell.
But just when I was about to take a step, a pair of cloudy eyes appeared in front of me, and it was the old man selling melons who walked out of the house quickly.
"Oh, kids, why did you come in?" the old man selling melons asked with a somewhat surprised look on his face.
"Well, I heard some shouting just now, so I came in without your permission, old man. What happened? Old man, your hands...!"
As I said that, I stopped at the bloody hand of the old man selling melons. I saw a blood pit the size of an egg appeared on his little arm, as if the flesh on his arm was raw with something. It was as if it had been bitten into pieces.
"Ah, old man, how did you do this? Such a big wound needs to be disinfected quickly!"
With that said, Liu Tingting actually took out the hemostatic medicine and gauze from her only small handbag.
