A single-plank bridge appeared in front of it. The bridge was really just made of a piece of wood, and the wood was a little thin. It even looked a little bit rotten.
Below the single-plank bridge is a small stream. The water does not look deep, but the sound of the water is loud and it flows lightly.
"What kind of bridge is this?" I asked Old Man Kong, pointing to the single-plank bridge in front of me.
"Naihe Bridge." Old Man Kong actually said these three words from his mouth?
The bridge in front of me is actually the Naihe Bridge? But I only saw the bridge, not Po Meng?
"Where's Po Meng?" I asked Old Man Kong.
“This Naihe Bridge is not the Naihe Bridge in the underworld. There is no Meng Po.” Old Man Kong paused and said: “If you walk over the Naihe Bridge in the underworld, you will forget the memories of your previous life. In front of you. This Naihe Bridge is no better than the bridge in the underworld."
"What do you mean?" I looked at Old Man Kong with a puzzled look and asked, "What? Isn’t it easy? Tell me!”
“Your master and I didn’t dare to go on this bridge.” Old Man Kong glanced at the Naihe Bridge and said, “There have been several. In ten years, no one has passed here. I don’t know what happened to the other side of the bridge.”
“Have you been to the other side of the bridge a few decades ago?” I asked. .
"I went there once, when I was young and I went with Master." When Old Man Kong said this, his eye circles turned slightly red.
“I’ve never heard you mention your master before!” I said.
"In order to send me out, the master himself had to come out." Old Man Kong sighed and said: "This time I went in just to bring out the master's bones and let him return to his roots."
I asked why Old Man Kong suddenly came to Mengquan Mountain. It turned out that he had been doing this for a long time because he wanted to get his master's bones back!
“Why are you thinking of coming here now?” I asked Old Man Kong with some curiosity. After all, his master’s bones had been here for decades.
"The time has come." Old Man Kong replied with these four words.
"What time?" I asked.
"Only by following God's will can things be done." Old Man Kong looked at me seriously and said, "But the secret of heaven cannot be guessed. Did I make a mistake this time or was I blind? That's right, I'm not sure. Let me give it to you again. The choice is whether to follow me or turn around and go back, you think about it yourself.”
“I followed you all the way here without even looking at anything.”
Why just turn around and go back?" I replied speechlessly.
“Have you really thought about it?” Old Man Kong asked me.
"Yeah!" I nodded and said, "We've thought about it, let's not wait any longer and hurry up!"
"Okay!" Old Man Kong nodded, and then took steps. Gently stepped onto the single-plank bridge.
As soon as Old Man Kong stepped on it, the single-plank bridge made a "creep" sound and shook violently. It gives me the feeling that the single-plank bridge looks like it may break at any time?
“Can this bridge withstand two people?” I asked Old Man Kong with some worry.
"For this single-plank bridge, there is no difference between one person and two people." Old Man Kong replied to me, and then said: "Stop delaying, hurry up and follow!"
< br>
I stepped on it carefully, and as soon as my foot touched the wood, I felt a cold air penetrate into the center of my feet. The Yin Qi on this single-plank bridge is really heavy.
Yin Qi will erode the Yang Qi in people. Now I finally understand why Old Man Kong said it was difficult to cross the Naihe Bridge.
Once Yang Qi is completely eroded by Yin Qi, a person's life will naturally be almost over.
“Don’t think about it, you have to go there as soon as possible.” Old Man Kong reminded me, and then he quickened his pace.
“Crunch…Crunch…”
Every time you take a step forward, the single-plank bridge will tremble and then make such a "creep" sound. Fortunately, this single-plank bridge is not too long, and Old Man Kong and I walked across it smoothly.
“Click!”
Just when I was rejoicing that I had successfully crossed the single-plank bridge, there was a muffled sound behind me. I looked back and found that the single-plank bridge we had just crossed had broken into two parts and fell into the creek.
"What's going on?" I pointed to the broken single-plank bridge and asked Old Man Kong.
"There is no turning back from Naihe Bridge. Since we have walked through Naihe Bridge, we should not think about leaving through this road again." Old Man Kong said.
"Didn't you and your master come in via the Naihe Bridge back then?" I looked at Old Man Kong with some suspicion, because I felt like he was hiding something from me.
"After the Naihe Bridge is broken, it will recover. When it will recover is a secret." Old Man Kong said this to me.
“The secret you mentioned before refers to the Naihe Bridge?” I asked.
“That’s right!” Looking at Old Man Kong’s attitude, he still seemed reluctant to tell me the truth!
I still trust Old Man Kong, at least he won’t cheat me. As for him hiding something from me, he probably has his own reasons. No matter what, I have followed him here anyway, and I don't bother to argue with him. I'd better take it one step at a time!
"Where are your master's bones?" I asked.
"It has been decades, and the master was still alive when he sent me away." Old Man Kong sighed and said, "Where are the master's bones? We have to look for them." I know.”
“The bones don’t have any obvious features, so it’s hard to tell who belongs to whom. How can I find them?” I asked Old Man Kong with some confusion.
“I can’t recognize other people’s bones, but I can recognize Master’s bones.” Old Man Kong took the words and said, “Let’s go forward and take a look!”
< br>Old man Kong took out a stack of paper money and scattered the paper money one by one while muttering silently.
After a while, Old Man Kong had already scattered several pieces of paper money and went out. He stared at the paper money scattered on the ground, and then started counting them with his fingers.
"Yes."
Old man Kong said these two words to himself, and then walked towards the Sunda position.
“Are you using paper money to measure the direction?” Seeing that Old Man Kong would throw out a few pieces of paper money every two steps he took, I asked him curiously.
“Yes!” Old Man Kong nodded and said, “When you enter this place, you can’t trust your eyes, so you can only follow the paper money.”
Under the leadership of Old Man Kong, after walking for about half an hour, a forest appeared in front of us. The woods looked eerie, and the trees inside gave people a strange feeling. There were a lot of vines wrapped around the trunk and branches, like snakes, which made people's hair stand on end.
“Why are there so many vines wrapped around the tree?” I asked Old Man Kong.
Old man Kong frowned and said: "I'm afraid this forest is not so easy to live in!"
Just when Old man Kong said this, I found those on the trees. The vines are actually moving. Although their movements are very small, even subtle, I can be sure that they are indeed moving.
"Why are you moving?" I looked at Old Man Kong with a worried look.
"The forest in front of us is called Hanging Forest." Old Man Kong said.
"The hanging forest?" I looked into the woods a few times, and then asked: "Why is it called the hanging forest?"
"The vines wrapped around the trees have hanging hanging trees attached to them. The souls of dead ghosts. Because they were all hanged, as long as they are alive, whether they are humans or animals, once they enter this forest, the vines will wrap around them and kill them alive. "Strangled." Old Han Kong paused and then said: "The souls of people who are strangled cannot enter the underworld. They can only wander in the forest, and eventually they will be attached to the new vines like them. Become the next evil spirit that kills people. "
"In other words, the more people die in the forest, the more dangerous the Hanging Forest will become. Is that right? ask. "Yeah!" Old Man Kong nodded, and then frowned. Looking at him like this, he seems to be thinking about what we need to do so that we can pass through the Hanging Forest smoothly.
