Dongguan Mountain, Zhongguan Mountain, and Xiguan Mountain are located in the middle section of Qiaoshan in the north of Fufeng County. Each of the three mountaintops has a temple, which worships the three fairies, Yunxiao, Bixiao and Qiongxiao, from east to west.
The peak of Zhongguan Mountain is high and bluestones are stacked, like a piece of beautiful jade embedded on the continuous green screen of the forest belt. The white light is like the moon at night, like daytime. Dongguan Mountain is also known as Maquan Mountain, with ups and downs and quite charming, with strange flowers and plants covering the foothills, and the pines and cypresses on the west are green, and the mountain springs are quiet. These three peaks can be said to be each with their own advantages and are all Feng Shui treasure lands with beautiful scenery in the eyes of the great officials and nobles in Fufeng County.
On the left side of the temple dedicated to Qiongxiao Fairy Gu, Xiguan Mountain, there is a row of monasteries built. These monasteries are nominally used for worship and practice by the believers of Sanxiao. In fact, they are used by the powerful people in Fufeng County to escape the summer heat and enjoy the snow scenery in winter.
This row of monks is connected along the mountain, connected by a plank road, and is supported by wooden pillars below. From a distance, it looks like hanging in the air. Although it looks dangerous, it is actually extremely stable under the design of a skilled craftsman. When the lights are on at night, looking up from the bottom of the mountain, it looks like a palace in the sky. Especially when the bright moon rises and crosses the mountain, the bright moon seems to be above these monks.
Zhou Tui Niu is from Yangjia Village at the foot of Xiguan Mountain.
There are twelve families in Yangjia Village, all of whom are rich families with a field. The rest are Zhou, Hong and Cai, and they are the first to be long-term workers of these families with a surname named Yang.
Zhou Erniu's grandfather originally helped the Yang family herd cattle. When his father was born, he learned some carpenter skills and finally bought a few acres of thin fields. However, relying solely on the production of these few acres of thin fields, it was difficult to eat enough. Therefore, although Zhou Erniu is only fifteen years old now, he has learned some carpenter skills, and he can already fight ordinary tables and chairs. However, his father was jealous of a pharmacist in the town who treats bruises and injuries, and the pharmacist had no children. So his father spent several years getting along with the pharmacist and calling him brother. Zhou Erniu also called the pharmacist godfather. When he had no carpenter work on weekdays, he followed the picture album he drew and went to the nearby mountains to look for herbs.
Although the prescription has not been passed to him, his godfather said it clearly. In fact, as long as you recognize all the medicinal materials, you can control the quality of the medicines through the test. After a few years of medicines, which medicines are used more and which medicines are used less are roughly proportional.
Zhou Tui Niu is an honest man. Even though he has been hiking the trees for most of the day, he is much more tired than being a carpenter and farming, and occasionally being chased by snakes. But he feels that it is worth learning the ability to make money, so he never complained.
Apart from the nearest Gushan Town, he had never been to the town outside, nor did he know what the world outside looked like. However, in midsummer, the carriages of those nobles arrived at the foot of the mountain and then sat on the sedan chair up the mountain, he would also imagine what the big city outside looked like, and how much silver the shining clothes on those people were worth.
Over time, he was also very curious about the hanging monasteries and wanted to know what the houses that the high-ranking officials lived in were like.
So every time he reaches the foot of the mountain, he can't help but look at the monasteries.
But it was just a look. He knew that even if those people in these monasteries were not in their daily lives, there would be some more fierce people guarding them, and people like him would not be close to them at all.
"Do you want to go in and have a look?"
On this day, when he looked up at the monasteries as usual, he heard someone asking him behind him.
He turned his head curiously, but found that a young man who looked a few years older than him was looking at him with a smile.
"Think about it!" Zhou Erniu looked at the young man and the middle-aged man beside him, and smiled again, saying, "But the people there are very fierce. Most people will be driven away when they arrive on the mountain road in front of the platform gate at the entrance of the plank road."
The young man is Gu Liubai, and the middle-aged man beside him is naturally his studious teacher Xiao Zhenwei.
Listening to Zhou Erniu's words, Gu Liubai smiled and said, "Can I take you in and see, will you see?"
New York smiled on Tuesday and said, "I have been thinking about going in for several years. If you can take me in, how could I not go? But I have reminded you that if you are scolded in a mess later, don't blame me."
Gu Liubai laughed and said, "Then I don't blame you, but you will come in with me later and don't be afraid if you see any terrible things."
Zhou Erniu was stunned, "Is there any ghost that is so rich and powerful that this rich and powerful person comes to a place to escape the summer heat?"
Gu Liubai smiled and said, "It's almost the same. We heard that it was occupied by some evil people from foreign countries, and there were all demons and monsters inside."
Zhou Erniu looked at Gu Liubai suspiciously, thinking that this person was nonsense, so he touched his nose and said, "Anyway, if you can take me in and see, I will definitely go in and see it, I'm afraid I'll have to see it."
Gu Liubai saw that he was very interesting and didn't say much, but just looked at Xiao Zhen and smiled.
Xiao Zhenwei waved to a forest at the foot of the mountain. Zhou Erniu was stunned and saw that there were a large number of people coming out of the forest, with about twenty.
These people were the zombies he controlled, covering their mouths and noses with cloths, and their clothes were covered with armor, which looked a little bloated and emitting a faint stench. Even in summer, Niu felt that when these people walked over, it seemed that a cold mountain wind was blowing over him, which made him feel a little cold.
Gu Liubai asked deliberately, "How is it, are you afraid?"
Zhou Erniu's face turned a little pale, but he still said, "You are not afraid, I am not afraid, but you are a little weird."
Gu Liubai smiled and said, "It's not very strange. They helped us knock on the door. Let them go up first, and we'll follow you."
"So many people knock on the door? I'm afraid they didn't tear the door down. Do these people have a grudge against the people in the monastery and come to seek revenge?" Zhou Erniu murmured in his heart, but he couldn't control his desire to go in and take a look, and he followed Gu Liubai without saying a word.
Taoist Pu still looked like a naughty man and had no sanity, but Xiao Zhenwei taught him only one move, that is to fight. Now Xiao Zhenwei beat him so hard that he knew how to accept some instructions. For example, when Xiao Zhenwei didn't let him walk in the front, he just walked honestly in the middle of the team.
Zhou Erniu followed Gu Liubai up and walked to the middle of the mountain. He felt more and more that something was wrong with this group of people. Although the mountain was cool and cool in this summer, others were wearing thin shirts, but these people were wrapped like rice dumplings, but they didn't seem to see their sweat.
In this kind of weather, even those sedan chairmen who often carry sedan chairs up the mountain are wearing sleeveless clothes, and their heads are steaming like steamers.
Just as I was thinking about this, suddenly there was a loud bang, and it seemed like thunder fell above, and the mountain road was trembling a little.
Zhou Erniu looked up in horror and saw that among the group of people who were not sweating, there were dozens of stone steps at the platform in front of the temple. However, the roof of the temple closest to them was shaking. The two people who were walking in front of them exploded. The two people flew back and rolled down the hillside.
"ah!"
Zhou Erniu screamed in horror, and he couldn't believe his eyes.
What's going on with the people here?
Even if you don’t want to let someone go in, or if someone comes to find bad luck, you can’t just use something to knock people down. Can this person survive if he goes down?
Isn't this a life-threatening person?
He screamed, but saw Gu Liubai turning his head to look at him with a smile and asked, "Are you afraid now?"
Zhou Erniu's legs were a little shaking, but looking at Gu Liubai's smile, he didn't know where he got the courage, and said, "I'm afraid, but anyway, if you can take me in, I still have to go in and take a look."
"Not bad!" Gu Liubai immediately gave him a thumbs up, then looked at Xiao Zhen and said softly, "Master, be careful, I haven't heard of Tubo people having such powerful firearms."
Xiao Zhen nodded slightly and said, "This firearm is activated, which is much faster than the sword of ordinary people."
After saying this, he shouted softly at Taoist Pu who was already dozens of steps ahead of them, "Doe!"
Taoist Park was originally depressed when he was walking, but when he heard this word, his body suddenly shook and felt like he was coming. There seemed to be a low voice in his body. With this sound, he stepped forward and grabbed the backs of the two people in front of him, and instantly threw the two people out.
"this?"
The eyes of Niu were straightened on Tuesday.
It was not until the two men landed on the platform in front of the monastery that he took a breath and said, "Is this man a god or a monster? Such a great effort? Both of them can throw them over."
Gu Liubai didn't answer his question, but smiled and said, "I haven't asked you what your name is yet."
Zhou Tui Niu said honestly, "My name is Zhou Tui Niu."
When he said this, his eyes were staring at the people and the shaking monastery on the roof.
"What a coincidence?" Gu Liubai immediately smiled, "I have a best friend, also whose surname is Zhou, and whose name is Lu'er."
Before Zhou Erniu could answer, he saw a fire burst out behind the door of the monastery. A tongue of flames surged out, and then there was a huge roar, like thunder. The two people who had just jumped forward two steps after landing, suddenly burst out many fragments, and were bombarded more than ten steps, colliding on the gate of the monastery on the platform behind.
At this time, Taoist Pu had already entered the tiger that had escaped from the cage. He kept grabbing the people in front of him and threw them towards the platform.
The two of them had just fallen to the ground and seemed to be unable to get up. Five or six people had already landed continuously and rushed towards the temple with excitement.
I don't know what kind of firearm it was, it was extremely powerful, but it seemed that it could not be activated at any time. Five or six people rushed into the gate of the monastery at the same time, and only heard the loud shouts and horror inside sounded at the same time, followed by the sound of heavy objects hitting the wooden board.
The monastery kept shaking, and a qi shot out from the gaps in the wooden boards.
Newton was stunned on Tuesday.
