The door seemed to be jammed by something inside, and Lao Yangpi pushed it for a while before he managed to open a gap.
He didn't say anything, just waved to me, and then he got into the house through the gap.
Looking at the lonely two-story building in front of me, I always felt that this small building was eerie, as if something was wrong, but for a while I couldn't tell.
Although there were ten thousand reluctances in my heart, in order to figure out the whole thing, I still gritted my teeth and got in.
There was no light in the room and it was very dark. Lao Yangpi took out a fire stick from his pocket, but the quality of his fire stick was not very good. It took a lot of effort to blow it up.
With a "plop" sound, a little orange light lit up in the darkness.
Lao Yangpi seemed to be very familiar with this place. Although most of the items were scattered on the floor due to the shock just now, he quickly found an oil lamp among the items on the ground.
Although the light of the oil lamp is not very bright, it is at least a hundred times stronger than the fire.
Lao Yangpi held the oil lamp in his hand, looked around, then reached out and took off the cork plugs above his ears.
I saw Lao Yangpi taking off the cork plugs in his ears, and I followed suit and took them off. There was nothing in my ears, and I suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
I opened my mouth and patted my ears twice with the heel of my palm. After a while, I said slowly: "My ears are really uncomfortable with this stuff..."
Lao Yangpi looked at me and said, "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Without it... I guess you would have gone to see the Lord of Hell like those people..."
Hearing what Lao Yangpi said, I couldn't help but think of the scene just now, so I asked, "If you didn't tell me, I almost forgot about it. What happened just now?"
Lao Yangpi was walking around in the messy room holding an oil lamp. When he heard my question, he said calmly without looking back: "That's the sound of Ye Mo's hooves..."
"Yeh Mo's Hoof?" I heard this name for the first time, and I couldn't help but asked in surprise, "What is that?"
Lao Yangpi said in a deep voice: "That is a kind of moth that lives on the immortal tree. When its wings vibrate, it can emit a very special sound wave..."
When Lao Yangpi said this, he pointed to his ears, and then continued: "That kind of sound wave can directly resonate with your eardrums, stimulate the weakest part of your brain, make you hallucinate, and see inside your heart. What I want to see most... is to follow those moths and eventually become food residue in their mouths."
What Lao Yangpi said was neither urgent nor slow, neither salty nor bland, but I felt goosebumps all over after listening to it.
I swallowed and said, "According to you, why are we okay?"
Lao Sheeppi said: "It's not because of the wooden plug...don't underestimate it. It is made of the body of the immortal tree, which can effectively combine the special vibration of Ye Mo's hoof, and...I The thing I gave you to smell..."
It's okay if Lao Yangpi didn't mention it, but when I mentioned it, my stomach started to feel a little overwhelming again. I quickly waved my hand to signal him to stop talking.
Seeing my reaction, Lao Yangpi stopped talking and turned around and walked forward.
But Lao Yangpi did not go upstairs, but towards the basement.
I didn't ask why Lao Yangpi was walking towards the basement. I just followed behind and asked in a nonchalant manner: "I mean, Lao Yangpi, you just mentioned the immortal tree. Could it be that..."
Lao Yangpi didn't wait for me to finish my words before he replied: "That's right! It's the immortal tree you know!"
Speaking of the Immortal Tree, I feel the need to say something here.
In fact, the earliest record of the immortal tree comes from the ancient book "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".
The "Hai Neijing" in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" records: "To the east of the quicksand, between the black waters, there is a mountain named the Mountain of Immortality." This is the "Mountain of Immortality".
The "Great Wilderness South Classic" records: "There is a country of immortality, A's surname, sweetwood is food." This is an "country of immortality".
"Haiwai Nan Jing" records: "The Kingdom of Jiaoshan is to the east of it, and it is Dajiaoshan. It is said to be in the east of Chuanxiong. The immortal people are to the east of it, and they are black, long-lived, and immortal." This is the "immortal people".
"Overseas Northern Classic" records: "The god of Zhongshan, whose name is Zhuyin, sees it as day, looks down as night, blows as winter, calls as summer, does not drink, does not eat, and does not rest."
Among them, it is recorded that "the undead people are in the east of Jiaoshan, they are black and their life span is immortal." The meaning of this sentence is that "immortal people are in this place to the east, where the people are all black, and they can always survive and will not die."
And this country is called the "Immortal Country" in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".
In fact, the "Immortal Country" is not the only country recorded in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" that can live forever. There is also a country called "Wu Qi Country" whose citizens can also live forever.
According to the records in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", the Wuqi Kingdom is located to the east of the Changgu Kingdom. The people here never give birth to children, but the population remains the same because the people here never die. The death of the citizens of Wuqi is equivalent to the sleep of ordinary people. Within 120 years after death, as long as there is a trace of internal organs, they can be resurrected; and the citizens of Wuqi never eat, they just grab dirt and stuff it in their mouths.
The citizens of the Wuqi Kingdom relied on part of their bodies to be resurrected, so how could the citizens of the "Immortal Kingdom" be "immortal"? The ancient book "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" does record that the citizens of the "Immortal Kingdom" relied on the "elixir of life" to obtain eternal life.
The original text of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Southern Classic of the Wilderness" records: "There is a country of immortality in the wilderness. My surname is Ganmu, which is food." This sentence is very common, but few people understand it. Until modern times, Guo Pu annotated it and said: "Ganmu is an immortal tree, and you will never grow old if you eat it."
However, according to the records in the "Shan Hai Jing", this kind of immortal tree is in the east, but how can it appear in Tibet in the northwest now?
Regarding this point, there is a record in "Huainanzi·Lan Ming Xun", "Yi offered immortal wood to the Queen Mother of the West. The Queen Mother of the West was greatly pleased and gave the elixir to Yi. Chang'e stole it and flew to the moon, advocating that there would be mourning and no way to continue. Of."
According to the records in "Huainanzi Lan Ming Xun", Hou Yi sacrificed a section of the root of the immortal tree to the Queen Mother of the West. In other words, the immortal tree that Lao Yangpi talks about now should be the one planted by the Queen Mother of the West. .
Lao Yangpi seemed to know this story very well. He explained the whole story clearly in just a few words. I couldn't help but be amazed when I heard it.
While we were talking, the two of us had already walked into the basement.
There were no furnishings in the basement, except for a black lacquered wood coffin leaning against the wall.
However, judging from the shape of this coffin, it should have been placed in the center of the basement.
Lao Yangpi nodded to the coffin with his chin, and then said to me: "The Lu Dingchun you are looking for is in here..."
