This is a common terrain in the mountains. It is considered a crack in the mountain. It has a small mouth and a big belly, like a urn, not deep, less than two meters, and can climb up by using hands and feet.

The stitching mouth is probably because the moss in the ground is too dense and has basically been covered. If you hike, the danger level is "lightweight" - you think you are down-to-earth, but as a result, you will go down as soon as you are empty.

However, it is a good place to shelter from the rain. Because of the heavy rain, it is difficult to seep in a short period of time, and the ground on the slit is densely planted, and the rain flow is basically "rolling" on the surface. Luo Ren greeted Mu Dai, and pulled open the raincoat and inserted the branches into the soil at the slit, and built a simple rain canopy.

On that end, ten thousand three thousand ridiculed Cao Yanhua: "I screamed so terrible. What a great prospect, Cao Pangpang, and many strong winds and waves have come."

Yan Hongsha held back her laughter and helped Cao Yanhua slap the wet mud on her body.

Cao Yanhua rolled his eyes: "Aren't I caught off guard? I was already rolling all the way, but I was a little confused when I fell down. When I opened my eyes, my dog ​​face was right in front of me, and my head was dark, so I couldn't see clearly. I was about to rush over. What's wrong with calling me?"

Luo Ren used a flashlight and walked to the corner, squatting down in front of a dog stone sculpture with half exposed on the ground.

No wonder Cao Yanhua was afraid. The dog was buried half obliquely in the mud in the corner, looking like it was about to pounce on it. Perhaps because of the age of time, the dog-headed dogs were covered with dense moss branches. At first glance, it looked extremely strange, not to mention that there were always bugs in and out of the moss, and suddenly it made the dog move somewhere. In the dark, it looked like it was alive.

Cao Yanhua and the others all surrounded him, and several flashlights beat the dog to a pale body.

"Little Brother Luo?"

Luo Ren said: "Dig it out, this stone statue is a bit of an article."

This is the mountain of tombs, and it is impossible to have a dog statue out of thin air. To be said to be a tomb-keeping, there are many divine beasts in the funeral culture.

He suddenly thought of something: "You guys dig first, I'll go up and take a look."

He stood up, lifted a corner of the canopy, and stepped forward, jumped to the ground quickly and quickly.

It was not difficult to dig it up. Because of the last time I repaired the grave, I later walked into the mountain and brought a folded small military shovel in my backpack. As soon as Cao Yanhua dug a few shovels, the stone sculpture loosened. It turned out that the base was connected to the bottom of the statue. He and two people worked together to move the stone statue.

As soon as he moved, Luo Ren came down. He had only had such skill and had already been soaked. He said, "There is a joint tomb between Tao Shangxian and Tao Wei family, not far away. It is very likely that the 'Tao Wei family' is the Wei girl in the water shadow."

However, there was not much information. The rough burial time was carved on the tombstone, with the words "Seventh Year of Xuantong in the Qing Dynasty".

The seventh year of Xuantong was the late Qing Dynasty, and Emperor Puyi's reign was the year of the end of the Qing Dynasty. At that time, there were internal and external troubles and storms.

While speaking, Mu Dai suddenly exclaimed, squatted down and looked at the base carefully, then reached out and rubbed it hard: "There are words on this base!"

There are characters, small carved characters, with very shallow marks and buried by soil. Luo Ren looked up at the awning, called Cao Yanhua and Yi Wansan for help, lifted the dog statue to the edge, and then pulled down one end of the awning. The accumulated rain water rushed down like a tap water, and quickly washed the base clean.

Then, the base was raised at an angle and stood up to the side, and found a suitable location for the ground hole to plug in a flashlight - in this way, there will be shadows when the light shines over, making it easier to see the words clearly.

Everyone can see clearly that the first two words are "Yi Dog".

Cao Yanhua was shocked and said unscrupulously: "Just... that dog, is it a righteous dog?"

Luo Ren smiled faintly: "Let's talk about it after reading it."

***

This is a stele written by a scholar. It is not long and it is very frugal to use words.

Classical Chinese is a white-collar worker. It is translated as the daughter of the close friend Tao Shangxian and Mr. Wei. The couple respect each other as guests. They were about to be together until they were old, but who knew that the house was in a big fire. The poor couple both died in the fire. What's worse is that Tao Wei is pregnant, which is considered to be two corpses and three lives.

Then the topic changed and talked about this dog.

He wrote a lot of books and praised him, saying that Tao Wei was kind-hearted and adopted a wandering dog before marriage. This dog is quite spiritual, guards the family and is loyal to the master.

After Tao Wei married the Tao family, the dog was originally in the private school of Master Wei, but after he went to Tao's house, he was struggling to stay at the door, so Tao Shangxian took the initiative and left the dog in Tao's house.

Seeing this, Yan Hongsha was angry: "Don't this lead the wolf into the house?"

Next, there was the disaster. The fire was too big and "the neighbors could not save it." The Tao family servants were scattered, and only the dog was wandering around the ruins for even a few days. They pulled out Tao Wei's bracelet from the fire and shed tears in her tears.

For a moment, the whole town was moved and praised that since the creation of the world, it was rare to protect the owner. So the dog became a "righteous dog" in the town. Someone specially built a kennel for it, restricting children from beating and scolding. There were good meals to feed every day. When the Tao couple was buried, the people in the town even raised funds and asked the stonemason master to carve stone sculptures and place them next to the tomb to make the righteous dog keep the spirit.

Cao Yanhua was so angry that he was about to smoke on his head: "Will you live a good life after closing it for the rest of your life? Who is the one who set fire to kill him!"

Yi Wansan sneered: "Isn't this the fourth evil silhouette? What you see in your eyes will blind people. The whole town has been fooled and has been fooled for so many years - the couple named Tao probably died with their eyes closed."

At the end of the inscription, perhaps it was the righteous dog who moved God. The dog's life was far longer than that of a dog. Everyone even discussed that after it died, it would be buried next to the Tao couple.

But no one expected that one day, the dog suddenly left silently. Later, a hunter from the mountain said that he had seen it in the mountains, near the Wanshou Stone, but he didn't know if it was true.

Such a bizarre story is worthy of being recorded, so later, the people in the town specially invited a carving master to record this passage on the base of the stone statue.

Luo Ren paid attention to the time of re-recording. It was around 1920, more than ten years after the death of the Dow couple.

***

After reading the inscription, everyone sighed. They were not relieved, but they felt that they exhaled so much absurdity, ridiculousness, incredibleness, but they could not help.

"Ruyi Dog" really insults the word "Ruyi".

Luo Ren said: "The tomb of the Tao couple is not far from above. The stone statue is not as good as the tomb. It was originally shallow and the base would not be very deep. Later, the carving master came to make up for the work. I guess a few heavy rains were rushing, so there was no guarantee that there would be a lightning strike. It flipped down by itself and fell into the crack of the mountain."

It was also luck. Thanks to Cao Yanhua's fall, otherwise the cracks of the mountain would be hidden and would not be easily discovered. Even if the tomb of the Tao couple was found, there would not be too many clues.

This Wanshou Stone is an impression of 13,000.

"That day at the front desk, I took the Tongxian tourism introduction list, which listed many 'element' attractions. The Wanshou Stone is in the branch of the Wushan Mountains, and in the other direction, there is a road from here, about 10 or 20 miles away. What Yellow River attractions can be connected to the tourist route."

Yan Hongsha couldn't figure it out: "Is it okay to have food, drink and bury people in the town? Why did you leave again?"

Muday said: "It has a ghost in its heart. Who knows what will happen after it dies? Its body looks like a dog on the surface, but it is actually a human body, right? If the person who is buried notices it, and then pushes and guides it, all the strange things can be linked. Don't talk about burial at that time, it won't be relieved if it is chopped or chopped."

Ten thousand three added: "And it is not good for dogs to live for too long - they are becoming more and more famous. If one day attracts any researcher, its secrets will be easily leaked."

Luo Ren nodded, half bent his fingers, and knocked on the words "Wanshou Stone" on the inscription.

"We should go and see this place. The dog who recognizes the word and leaves the Long Town should be preparing for his funeral. It is a human being in its bones, and even if it dies, it wants to have a safe place to bury the bones."

***

Finally, there was a breakthrough.

It was already evening, so I went to Wanshoushi again and investigated it again. It was probably difficult, so I went back to Tongxian first.

On the way back, he was so happy. Luo Ren joked that thanks to Hongsha’s birthday, Cao Pangpang’s turnaround decline.

When I returned to the hotel, the genius had just turned dark. This was the day when I had "retired work" in a few days. Luo Ren asked if I wanted to have dinner together. Cao Yanhua said: "It's free to move around, I'm always tired of it."

He discussed with Yi Wan San to see what you can buy for Yan Hongsha as a birthday gift.

This made Yan Hongsha very embarrassed. All that were left were Mu Daye and Luo Ren. She followed like a light bulb, and she was alone without following her, which was very boring.

Luo Ren saw her thoughts and said with a smile: "You can go shopping with Mu Dai. I'm very tired from driving these two days. I need to rest and nourish my vitality."

The Yanhongsha couldn't hide the little bit in his heart and suddenly laughed.

So, everyone in the room went their own way. Mu Dayi and Yan Hongsha held hands, just like their ordinary best friend. They whispered, giggled, and giggled out of the elevator. When they arrived at the hall, Mu Dayi touched his pocket and remembered that he forgot to bring his phone.

She asked Yan Hongsha to wait for her and ran up to get her cell phone.

When I swiped my card to enter the room, took my cell phone, and when I went out, I heard Luo Ren ask, "Who is back?"

Kiyo said, "I'm going to get my cell phone."

The bathroom door was covered with a faint sound, and the sound of water was heard. Through the crack of the door, he was vaguely seen standing by the bathroom. Mu Dai pushed the door and said, "You have a good rest..."

Before he finished speaking, he was a little choking in his throat. Luo Ren stood by the sink. Perhaps because he was raining in the mountains, he turned red and leaned down and felt his face as he felt water. There were messy water droplets flowing down his bronze back.

There were several new knife wounds on his back, and the others were shallow, the deepest one, diagonally down from his left shoulder, covering his entire back.

Kiyo stared at it, and his nose suddenly became sore.

Luo Ren straightened up, took a towel to wipe his face, and when he was halfway through, he felt something was wrong. He looked at her eyes from the mirror and laughed: "Why, I feel sorry?"

Somehow, Kiyo nodded himself.

Luo Ren put down the towel, looked back at her, and said, "Come on, come here."

Mu Dai brought her over to Luo Ren. He looked at her and smiled, reached out to stroke her back, and to his hips. He stretched his arms with one hand and held her on the sink.

Then leaned towards her.

Muyo leaned back uneasyly, with a sink beneath her, cold and splashed water, and a mirror behind her, which truly reflected everything in the room, but she couldn't see it.

Luo Ren grabbed her hand, pressed it on his abdominal muscles, and then slowly moved upwards and stopped on his left shoulder.

He has a strong muscles and doesn't look big when he wears clothes. He can tell that it's hard when he touches it, which is completely different from her softness.

Luo Ren said: "Little girl, I have suffered a lot of losses in your hands."

His eyes fell on his shoulders: "Here, when I met for the first time, I hit me hard."

Yes, that's right.

At that time, he pretended to be buying fruits, and borrowed paper and pen from the stall owner to write a number for her: "But Miss, if you want to find an opportunity to meet me, my name is Luo Ren, you can call me this number at any time..."

Kiyo smiled and whispered: "Actually, it hurts when I hit me."

Luo Ren lowered his head and bit her lips carefully. It hurt slightly, like a slender punishment. Then he shook her hand and then went down to his ribs.

"Here, if you fight in the woods, you're almost broken with your elbow."

Kiyo couldn't help laughing: "You put the knife on my neck."

He also signaled with confidence.

Luo Ren blew gently at the point where she pointed, and itchy.

"I wasn't willing to cut your skin a little bit. Do you know how many days I've been bruised here? I can't even press it to sleep at night, and it hurts as soon as I press it. In those days, I missed you a lot, but because I didn't pay attention to turning over, I woke up in pain."

Sorry, Kiyo.
