The explanations of those experts are different. They think that this is just a metaphor. It has been circulated for a long time and there is such a saying. "
Fang Zheng heard it was miraculous. Outsiders would definitely not believe it, but Fang Zheng was different. He himself was possessed by the system. Next to him squatted the big demon king, who also had magical powers. I still have some faith in this kind of folklore... As I walked and listened, I also listened with great interest, and asked: "Is there anything else? By the way, those experts said it was a metaphor, is the dry rice bowl really the same as the same bowl? Like?"
Tan Juguo smiled and said: "I don't know what it looks like specifically. It is said that the lakes inside are like basins, with big basins inside small basins, basins connected to each other, basins connected to each other... No one knows how many basins there are. . It is said that there are a total of ninety-nine and eighty-one basins, but it is just a legend."
Fang Zheng heard this and asked in confusion: "Donor Tan, if you say that you didn't know how many lakes there were in the rice bowl before, I would believe it, but what age are we now? Technology is so advanced, let alone satellites, drones can also Why don’t you fly in and take a look?”
"I know what you're talking about. The experts who came with them at the beginning were much more advanced than you mentioned. But it was useless. It is said that those mechanical things malfunctioned after entering. The plane was lost after entering. It crashed. Viewed from the satellite, it is just a vast white fog. What can you see? From ancient times to the present, there are countless expedition teams that have entered the rice bowl. Even today, no team can go in. If you can see clearly, then Those who came out alive. Everyone who came out had not gone very far before going back. By the way, I heard from the experts that our rice bowl was rated as one of the major unsolved mysteries in the country. It’s a pity. , this thing is too dangerous and is not open to the outside world. Otherwise, if it is developed into a tourist area, our village will be comfortable..." Tan Juguo shook his head and sighed. He didn't know whether he was sighing that the mystery of the rice bowl was not solved, or he was sighing. The dry rice bowl did not become a tourist area, and the village did not benefit from it.
Fang Zheng said in surprise: "Has anyone died in the rice bowl?"
"It's not that people have died, it's that many people have died." Tan Juguo smoked a dry cigarette and sighed: "That place is too dangerous. Those who died in the early years were all ginseng and herb pickers. Later, those who came here As the evil reputation spread, various adventure groups and scientific research groups began to come, and then they went one after another, but few came out. Hey... Hey? Why do you ask this? I tell you, you don't Go!" At this point, Tan Juguo suddenly came back to his senses, knocked on his pipe, and said solemnly.
Fang Zheng laughed dryly and said, "The poor monk is just curious."
"That's good." Tan Juguo nodded.
Fang Zheng still asked unwillingly: "Really, no one came out?"
Tan Juguo thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "No, it is said that there was a little girl at that time who didn't know the horror of the rice bowl, so she went in to pick mushrooms so stupidly, and then..."
"How's it going?" Fang Zheng asked.
Tan Juguo smiled bitterly and said: "She crossed the dry rice basin. When she came out, she realized that she had entered the Valley of Death. She was so scared that she didn't dare to go out for several days."
Fang Zheng was shocked, this happened? Could it be that this rice bowl sometimes fails
Tan Juguo continued: "Some people said that they had gone in and saw a stone gate formation made of stones. What they said was very similar to that. But if you look at it, I guess it is probably to fool people."
At this time Wang Yougui interjected: "I have also heard about this matter, and I even mentioned it to the experts. Unfortunately, they don't believe it."
Along the way, Fang Zheng heard many stories about dry rice bowls, and unknowingly entered the depths of the Tongtian Mountains.
Although the Tongtian Mountains are also primitive mountains, and although they have dense vegetation, they are still too close to human living areas. They have more atmosphere of human activities and less of the unique temperament of primitive forests.
But after passing the outskirts of the Tongtian Mountains and entering the depths, towering trees with two people hugging each other began to appear here. The big trees reached into the sky, and the ground was covered with thick leaves. When you step on them, they will feel soft and soft. One foot is deep and one foot is shallow, making it very difficult to walk. In particular, there are some hidden pits that are very easy to fall into if you are not experienced. Moreover, there are many wolves, insects, tigers, wild boars, and blind bears in this deep mountain forest, and most people would not dare to set foot there.
Fortunately, Yizhi Village has been climbing to the main peak of Tongtian Mountain every year, so this road has long been well traveled. Not only were they familiar, but the wild animals along the way were also familiar. Basically, wild animals were rarely encountered on this road, and even if they were, they would run away when they heard the sound of people. Even if there are occasionally a few mindless curious ghosts who want to come up and take a look, they will be frightened and run away by the big white wolf like a calf that suddenly bursts out from the grass.
If the lone wolf back then was the king of the wolf pack, leading the wolf pack across all directions relied on the power of the group. So now the lone wolf can defeat all tigers, leopards, jackals, and bears by his own strength. This guy is getting stronger day by day, as strong as a bear, with copper skin and iron bones, and a pair of fangs that can bite stones into pieces. Such a guy, rushing into the forest, is simply a monster! Rampage, invincible.
Of course, the villagers couldn't see these scenes. They only saw the lone wolf rushing into the woods and didn't know what he was doing, but no one paid much attention.
We set off in the morning and arrived at the main peak of Tongtian Mountain at around 10 a.m. and stood on the main peak. Fang Zheng felt that he was one step closer to the sky. Looking into the distance, he felt as if he could see all the mountains at a glance.
Fang Zheng liked this feeling. He squinted his eyes, took a deep breath, and then prepared to let out a long roar, letting out a sigh of relief in his heart and completely releasing himself.
As a result, before Fangzheng could shout, he heard shouts one after another nearby. He turned around and saw the villagers shouting one by one, as if they wanted to shout out all the depression of the past year, and then Follow this autumn wind and go away.
"Master, what are they shouting for?" Honghai'er couldn't understand what these people were thinking at all. What's there to shout about in this small mountain? If you want to shout, you have to go to the tens of thousands of meters high mountain... I wanted to ask Fang Zheng, but When I thought that I would probably get punished if I asked, I might as well ask half the question.
Fang Zheng said: "On the Double Ninth Festival, the air is crisp in autumn. When you climb high and look into the distance, you have a broad vision and an open mind. The air you breathe has a touch of coolness in autumn. Take a deep breath and it is as if it is cool to the bottom of your heart. Can't you feel that kind of refreshing? This It’s so cool, who can resist shouting?”
Red Boy tilted his head and thought for a while. According to Fang Zheng's statement, he took a deep breath. Sure enough, a cool air entered his lungs, and his whole body's spirit improved a lot. Looking far into the distance, the sky was high and the clouds were light, and there was something unexpectedly there. With such a heroic feeling, I couldn't help but shouted out along with the crowd. Red Boy's voice was like a subwoofer, startling the villagers nearby.
