Shiry Yang sighed softly and said: "If there is a sound on the harp, why doesn't the harp sound in the box?
If the sound is on your fingers, why don't you listen to it on your fingers.
I don't know the technique.
Even if there are harp and fingers, I can't understand it.
The mystery.”
The fat man also sighed with emotion: "It seems that Su Dongpo is also an expert in decoding, but now we have the piano and the fingers, but the fingers are not clear and still can't play the music.
These jade rings will be useless after all, and the value will inevitably increase."
A big discount.”
From this point of view, it is very likely that it coincides with the "Sixteen-Character Tian Gua" that was lost in ancient times.
If the sixteen-character Yin-Yang Feng Shui secret technique in the fragmentary book passed down by my family has any I'm just afraid that the "Muchen Bead" has a significant connection with the information in the Book of Heaven.
If it is not solved, the curse of the bottomless ghost cave cannot be eliminated.
But no matter what, we have to wait until we return to Beijing to take out the "Muchen Bead" from the head.
Only then can we know that we are helpless and have no intention of playing with those "clear weapons" anymore.
The fat man went to the dining car to buy some food and beer.
Shiry Yang said to me while eating: "Lao Hu, I have been wondering where the Muchen Beads that were presented to the king came from.
There are two possibilities.
One is the turmoil in the late Qin Dynasty.
At this time, the second one obtained from the Central Plains may have been obtained from Tibet.
According to records in foreign history, the set of evil techniques also originated from Tibet. " I drank some beer and my mind became clearer than usual.
When Shiry Yang mentioned this, I felt that the "Muchen Bead" was probably a sacred object hidden in the border area.
King Xian hoped that after becoming an immortal, he could go to the place he saw in the lake view.
He also made bronze statues of the people there in strange clothes and placed them in the front hall of the Heavenly Palace.
The mural details the location seen when viewing the lake.
A giant eyeball is enshrined in the city, but it is really puzzling how this is related to the ghost cave in the desert of Xinjiang.
I think the final key may lie in the place depicted in the mural.
We have no clue where that place is, and we don’t even know if such a place really exists in the world.
Maybe it existed before but we can’t find it now.
But I did see those strangely dressed human figures, so I told Shiry Yang some past stories about my time as a soldier in the Kunlun Mountains.
I still don’t want to recall these things.
They were too tragic and tragic.
When I think about them, it feels like being gouged out by scissors.
The pain in my heart is the same, but the scene is as vivid as if it happened yesterday, clear and distant.
In the winter of 1970, my comrade "Big Man" and I, as well as the female geological prospector Luo Ning, escaped from the abyss of death.
Thanks to being rescued by the patrol team at the military station, the underground and surface environments became warmer and warmer.
The cold caused us all to have a fever and fall into a coma, so we were sent to the hospital in the military branch.
Luoning's condition worsened and she had to be transferred to another hospital on the third day.
I don't know what happened to her afterwards.
I never heard from her again.
The big man and I only had a high fever for two days and lost a few pounds.
Tianye recovered after eating a few sick meals.
On the sixth day of hospitalization, Director Xu from the propaganda team of our division came to see us.
Director Xu said that the big man and I were the first people to achieve third-class merit after our division entered the Kunlun Mountains.
How many photos would he take of us?
The photo was publicized throughout the division to inspire the revolutionary fighting spirit of the soldiers.
I was in a bad mood at the time and wanted to be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible.

We were the only two survivors in one shift.
It was best to return to the company as soon as possible, so as not to lie in the hospital bed and see those sacrifices every time I closed my eyes.
His comrades dangled before his eyes.
I heard from Officer Xu that the main force of our division will soon enter the Kunlun Mountains.
After taking photos for me, he would first go to the "Unfrozen Spring" military station to find the advance team.
As soon as I heard that I was going to the "Unfrozen Spring" military station, I immediately became energetic, because our company was the advance team of the entire division, so I discussed with Director Xu and asked him to discuss with the doctor, including me and the big man.
Take it back and let us rejoin the torrent of revolutionary struggle earlier.
With the accommodation of Director Xu, the three of us boarded a truck that delivered supplies to the military station that day, and entered the Kunlun Pass along the highway.
It started to snow halfway, with dense clouds and heavy snowfall everywhere, and the mountains and rivers thousands of miles away were like a wall of powder.
There is no more risky occupation in the world than driving on the Qinghai-Tibet, Sichuan-Tibet highways.
The sound of snow chains is frightening, the canvas on the truck and the wind and horse flag on the front of the truck make a loud noise, and the biting cold wind blows through the car.
We were so cold inside that we had to huddle together to keep warm.
The water in the kettle turned to ice.
Our teeth were chattering.
We finally reached the "freezing spring" and immediately ran to the stove to keep warm.
Officer Xu is a southerner.
Although his physical fitness is good, compared with the physique of our grassroots company soldiers, his body is still a little thin.
However, this man, like most young people of that era, has blood flowing in his blood.
I felt an inexplicable motivation.
After I warmed up a little, I immediately started taking pictures of me and the big guy.
We accepted his intercession and had no choice but to listen to his mercy.
I held up a selected book of Mao Zedong and posed by the stove as if I was reading seriously.
Director Xu pressed the shutter button and the flash came on, shaking me so much that I almost dropped the book into the stove. inside.
Director Xu said to me: "Comrade Hu, there is no need to wait for the film to be developed.
Based on my experience, this photo must have been taken very well, because you looked very focused on studying Chairman Mao's works."
I quickly said humbly: "As soon as I start learning, it is easy to forget my personal existence, and completely forget that I am taking pictures.
If the pictures are good, then your photography skills are good."
The big man said from the side: "Lao Hu's shape is indeed very good.
I also have the same posture as him.
When you report in the future, can you give me the comment of being diligent?"
Director Xu smiled and said: "That's not appropriate.
Mr.
Lin has already used these four words, and forgetting about food and sleep has been used to describe Comrade Lei Feng.
Let me see how you two use the word "concentrate" As we were talking, the company commander of our company came back.
The company commander was a veteran who had joined the army in Sichuan.
He heard that the only two surviving soldiers from our squad had returned to the army.
He ran into the house despite the wind and snow.
The big man and I hurriedly Stand up, stand at attention, and salute.
The company commander punched each of us twice in the chest: "It's good to come back.
Unfortunately, forget about the instructor and the rest of your comrades.
You two go to eat quickly.
The others will be rude.
There will be an emergency later."
Mission."
After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry.

The big man Jia Xu and I heard that there was an urgent mission, and saw the company commander's hurried look.
We knew something might have happened, and it was not convenient to ask now, so we had to go to eat quickly.
When we were eating, we discovered that the leader of the advance team Most of the people are not here.
It turns out that after us, the advance team sent several small teams into the Kunlun Mountains.
The current Bufrozen Spring Military Station is an empty shell with not many manpower left.
I noticed the tense atmosphere in the air, so I asked the correspondent Chen Xing what was going on.
It turned out that three days ago, there was another aftershock in the nearby mountains.
Two herdsmen were hiding from the snow in the abandoned Great Phoenix Temple on the mountain.
The earthquake frightened their cattle and they ran into the back of the temple.
There was a smelly water pool behind the temple.
The water pool seemed to be like an ice-free spring.
Even in winter, it did not freeze.
They watched wide-eyed as a big green-haired hand stretched out from the pool behind the temple and pulled the yak into the water.
The two of them hurried over and tried to pull the yak back, but when they pulled it up, The yak had become dried meat.
In less than a few minutes, only the skin and dried meat were left.
The herdsmen suddenly became frightened and thought it was haunted, so they came to report to the army.
The People's Liberation Army couldn't ignore the herdsmen's affairs.
At that time, they mixed some mobile personnel into a squad and were led by the two herdsmen.
They went to the Great Phoenix Temple to see what was poaching the corners of socialism there.
At that time, the wolf hunting campaign was carried out vigorously, and all animals that harmed the herdsmen were included in the hunt.
However, these soldiers had been there for two days and two nights, including the two herdsmen, and their whereabouts were unknown, and communications were interrupted.
Bu Dongquan Military Station reported the matter to their superiors and attracted debugging attention.
Just now, the following was made Instructions: The imperialists are determined to destroy themselves, and the situation of class struggle is very complicated.
Perhaps the situation reported by the two herdsmen was deceptive.
They are actually spies.
Especially since the mission performed by our advance team in Kunlun Mountain is highly sensitive, it must be Send troops immediately to respond.
However, there were only a few people left in the military station, and some manpower had to be left to take care of the supplies.
The other military stations were too far away and it was difficult to respond in a short time.
However, the military orders were like mountains, and the orders of superiors must be obeyed.
The company commander had no choice but to let a There are only two people standing on guard.
Including the company commander himself, there are only three people in total.
The big man and I, as well as Director Xu, and a military doctor also volunteered to catch the spies.
There was also a ground officer who had a strong reaction to the altitude and joined in.
There were eight people in total, and we still felt strong.
It was too weak, but there was no other way.
It was too late to wait for reinforcements from the Brothers in Arms, so we just set off.
The snow outside was falling slowly.
As soon as I left the military station, I met an old lama.
This old lama came from the temple on the mountain.
He often came to the military station and exchanged butter with the cook for some fine salt.
The company commander Thinking that this lama has a good relationship with the army and is familiar with this area, it is better to let him lead the way.
When the old lama heard that we were going to the Great Phoenix Temple, he was immediately surprised.
The locals didn’t know it and had forgotten it, but the old lama remembered that the Great Phoenix Temple was built during the Qianlong period and was dedicated to Yamantaka.
It was a treasure, but it was abandoned fifty years later, because that mountain pass was the place where the king who "led the country" thousands of years ago, "King Gesar, the King of the World's Enemy-Conquering Orb", sealed the Demon Kingdom. , is a forbidden area.
The company commander disagreed and said: "What are you talking about ancient tombs?
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Tibetan areas are all covered with sky burials.
Wherever there are ancient tombs, they must have been created by those spy turtles.
You can't even think about it."
I don’t believe it.”
The old lama has been dealing with Han people for a long time and can speak Chinese fluently.
Seeing that the officers of the army did not believe him, he decided to follow us to prevent us from disturbing the fierce mountains and ghost lakes.
Tibetans are a nation that worships mountains and lakes.
In their eyes, mountains and lakes They are all incarnations of gods, except God Mountains and holy lakes alike have evil mountains and unlucky lakes, but these places are controlled by Buddhism.
The lama is worried that we Han people will cause trouble if we don’t know what is going on, but these words cannot be spoken openly.
When they came out, they could only say that they were leading the way and assisting the army.
Seeing that the old lama volunteered to lead the way, the company commander naturally agreed and said, "I want it."
Then he took our improvised reinforcement team and set off from the "Unfrozen Spring" military station.
I listened to their words and thought that our company commander is a good fighter.
Before coming to Kunlun Mountains, although he had received training in ethnic policy, his understanding of Tibet, an ancient and mysterious place, was still too low. .
I was not very young at that time, and I had only scratched the surface of tomb culture and Feng Shui secrets.
But I knew that in Tibet, the five burial customs of fire, water, earth, sky, and pagoda had coexisted for thousands of years.
It's not that there are none, it's just very special.
It is the most ominous type of tomb in Tibet and is taboo for normal people.
Only those who have committed serious crimes will be buried in the soil after death and will never be reincarnated.
Maybe it is in the abandoned Great Phoenix Temple. , there really is such an ancient tomb.
It was ten years later that I fully understood that burial in Tibet was not as simple as I understood at the time.
In ancient times, many nobles were influenced by Chinese culture and were willing to accept burial in the Muri Mountains southwest of Qiongjie.
There are a large number of tombs of Zongpu from various dynasties of the Tubo Dynasty around the 7th and 8th centuries AD.
There are about 30 tombs.
It is collectively known as the "Tibetan Tomb" in the world.
They are all square domes, tens of meters high, and made of rammed earth and stone.
The most famous one buried inside is Songtsen Gampo.
Many people say this is the burial place of the pagoda.
The form, but its essence, is no different from the Shannei Mausoleum of the Tang Dynasty.
But at that time, these words were naturally not allowed to be spoken in the army.
As a revolutionary soldier.
It means obeying orders and following instructions, and doing whatever your superiors tell you to do.
The distance from our starting point to the "Great Phoenix Temple" on the mountain pass is not far, but there is no road, the mountains are rugged and extremely difficult to travel, and the altitude difference is huge.
The weather is different for thousands of miles.
It is still snowing on the mountain ridge, but it is like spring all year round under the mountain.
The desolate "Great Phoenix Temple" area is originally a no-man's land, just because in front of the mountain gate here, there is a meadow that is green all year round.
Occasionally, some Tibetan herdsmen go there to collect some winter grass for emergencies, because the mountains there are not good. , the lake is not good either.
People and livestock often disappeared inexplicably in the past, so the herdsmen would try not to go there if they can.
The lama led his old horse carrying things and led the way.
They walked for nearly half a day and passed several mountain bends.
The snow suddenly started to fall heavily.
Lead clouds hung low in the sky, and there were goose-feather flakes of snow. , it will spread overwhelmingly, four The undulating Kunlun Mountains around are like layers of frozen white waves.
Looking around, you can see everywhere covered with silver and jade, covered with frost and snow.
Although the scene of heavy snowfall is spectacular, it gives people who are trekking on the ridge a sense of comfort.
A lot of difficulties came.

Director Xu and local officer Lu Weiguo were the two weaker members of our team.
As the road got higher and higher, the sky gradually darkened, and they all developed mild altitude sickness.
It seemed that we had to climb over the ridge in front to reach the Great Phoenix Temple at the pass.
The company commander conveyed the order to find a sheltered place for everyone to rest for a while, eat something to replenish their strength, and then set off to the destination in one go.
So our team stopped temporarily.
The female military doctor Ga Hong who came with the team was a Deqin Tibetan.
Her original name was Gema, which means star in Tibetan.
Ga Hong checked it with Director Xu and the others.
It doesn't matter, just keep walking It's been too long, and my cardiopulmonary function has declined, which has led to this situation.
This is a mountain valley, and the altitude is not too high.
Drink a few bowls of butter tea, which can reduce altitude sickness, and rest for a while, and you'll be fine. , no need to take any medicine.
The old lama found a big stone and built a stove with gravel on the leeward side.
He lit a small fire with dried cow dung, heated the butter tea and distributed it to us.
Finally, it was distributed to me and the big man.
The old lama smoked it with one hand.
Turn the prayer wheel, hold the teapot in one hand, pour the tea into the bowl, and then say: "May you have good luck."
I was already freezing, so I thanked the lama, drank the whole bowl of butter tea, and wiped my mouth.
I had never thought that sesame, salt, butter, tea and other messy things were mixed together to make it.
What's so delicious about drinks?
Now, in this world of ice and snow, with such a hot bowl, I suddenly feel that there is nothing better than it in the world.
Seeing that I drank quickly, the female military doctor Gema asked the lama for a teapot and poured me a new bowl: "Drink slowly and don't burn your mouth.
The custom in Tibetan areas is that when drinking tea, you should not drink too much."
It’s clean, and you have to leave the bottom of the bowl, so that you can show that the owner is generous.”
After saying that, he smiled at me and turned around to help the lama make tea.
I looked at her back and said to the big man next to me: "I think military doctor Yuma is really good.
He treats his comrades as warm as spring, especially like my sister."
The big man wondered: "You have a sister in your hometown, why haven't you told me about her?
What does she look like?
Let's take a look at the whole picture."
I was about to tell the big man that I only had such a beautiful and amiable sister in my dreams, but I heard the sentry correspondent suddenly shout: "There is something wrong."
The people who had gathered around the fire to keep warm immediately felt as if their whole bodies were electrified.
They kicked up the snow with their feet, suppressed the fire, and quickly fell to the ground.
At the same time, there was a short and powerful sound of pulling the gun bolt. , but all I could see was white snow flying around, the night was still and heavy, and only the lonely cold wind whistled by.
The company commander lay on the snow and stared at the surroundings with vigilance, and cursed: "What's going on, Chen Xing, you idiot?
If you dare to lie about the military situation, I'll shoot you first.
Do you believe it or not?"
Correspondent Chen Xing shouted in a low voice: "Company Commander, I guarantee with my head that I saw it right.
Just now on the top of the mountain over there, a few green lights suddenly lit up."
I said to the company commander: "Could it be like what was shown in the hidden sentry in Yangcheng?
It's a communication signal sent by enemy agents.
I don't know if we have been exposed.
Just let me go over for reconnaissance."
The company commander nodded and said: "Yes, when you go there, you have to be careful when you go forward.
It's best to catch him alive.
It's not right."

We saw five small green lights suddenly appearing dozens of meters away from us.
Because it was already dark and the surface of the barren mountainous area was covered with snow, it was difficult to distinguish the terrain over there.
These five green lights followed the wind.
The snow moved slowly and erratically, like a few will-o'-the-wisps, flickering in and out, spinning in circles around us.
This time.
We all raised our semi-automatic rifles.
Aiming at the target, but the company commander said that no one was allowed to shoot until the situation was clear.
At this time, the old horse in Lama's land suddenly neighed and kept raising its pout.
The lama hurriedly held the horse and stroked it.
He stroked its mane and chanted sutras to appease it, and then told us: "The guardian deity in charge of animal husbandry was alarmed.
It was a pack of wolves."
I looked at it.
The five green bright spots that appear and disappear from time to time, could it be that there is a one-eyed one who just entered the Kunlun Mountains?
I heard it from the veterans at the military station.
In the nearby Mozhan pasture, there is a one-eyed white-haired wolf king.
However, the military and civilians have cooperated recently and have been hunting wolves so much that the wolf group has almost disappeared.
Unexpectedly, they have actually hid in the mountains.
Their sudden appearance is probably not a good sign.
I don’t know what disaster it will bring.
The three wolves circled around us for several times.
The company commander asked the big man to fire a shot into the air to scare them away, so as not to attract more hungry wolves and cause unnecessary trouble to us.
The current urgent task is not to kill wolves. , but quickly searched for and rescued the missing comrades, so the big man fired a shot in the air, a domestically produced Type 56 semi-automatic rifle, and the unique gunshot pierced the night sky.
The few wolves around seemed to know the power of the weapons in the hands of us soldiers and did not dare to stay any longer.
Soon they disappeared into the wind and snow under the cover of night.
The company commander said that maybe the squad in front was on the way back.
I was attacked by wolves, but then I thought Yes, this possibility is unlikely.
With more than a dozen semi-automatic rifles and no matter how many wolves there are, no matter how many wolves there are, the weather is bad.
Compared with the wolves, what is more terrifying is the enemy agents that have penetrated into the mountainous area.
There are also many potential threats.
The missing team must be found immediately.
We set off immediately, climbed over a large ridge, and walked down a very steep hillside.
Below was a meadow.
There was no snow here, the temperature was relatively high, but it was still very cold.
There was smoke and grass everywhere, and the "big and desolate" land was broken and desolate.
"Phoenix Temple" is hidden in the grass.
Caodianzi is surrounded by ancient wolf forests, and the area is really quite large.
There are not many of us, and it is not easy to search such a large area, so we divided into two groups.
The company commander took the correspondent, the cook, and the people from the Dikanyuan.
Lu Weiguo and military doctor Ga Hong formed a group of five.
The remaining four people, Big Man, Lama, Director Xu, and myself were the second group.
The company commander arranged for me to be in charge of the second group temporarily.
The two groups searched from the left and right wings respectively.
I led the second group and pushed aside the weeds that were nearly a person tall.
I groped my way deeper with my gun in hand.
I pushed aside the weeds and could see the blurry sections covered under them.

The ancient stone paths are all relics of temples in the Qing Dynasty.
I thought that these relics could be used to confirm the direction, so I wanted to continue walking, but I was grabbed by the old lama.
He said to me: "Hey, Puse army, this road is not for people to walk on."
Puse: Young man.
I thought to myself that if it was walked by humans, then it might be walked by ghosts, so I said to the lama: "The country belongs to the people, and the people walk the road of the people.
In China, no matter the road is big or small, it is the road of socialism.
Why not "Let go" Director Xu felt that I was speaking too hastily, so he stopped me and said, "The local comrades are cooperating with us in carrying out our tasks.
I think we should listen more to their opinions."
The lama took out an old iron rod from his colorful satchel and said: "I have been an iron rod lama for two generations of living Buddhas for forty years.
I know everything about the temple.
That road must not be used."
Go, just follow me , the origin of this abandoned temple is not ordinary."
After saying that, he walked around from the side and chanted the scriptures as he walked: "Here, the one who subdues evil spirits with gold steel has forty-five magical powers and wonderful virtues.
Give me the correct cultivation and achieve it, and he will be able to defeat all enemies.
Send out the sign, and all evil will be extinguished."
None of us could understand the meaning of the mantra he sang.
We thought that the Red Guards would have captured and criticized the mantra in the mainland, that is, in the Tibetan area.
I had no choice but to follow behind and asked the lama if I had nothing to say: "Old comrade Lama Ak, since you are so familiar with this ruined temple, can you tell us why this temple was abandoned soon after it was built?"
The lama stopped and turned around when he heard the words, a dark cloud appeared on his old face: "It is said that the last generation of ghost mothers in the demon country and the big cicada's demon-killing bowl are buried here.
Even the mighty gold steel offered in the temple can't suppress it.
"The situation got serious, and too many people and animals died, so it had to be deserted
