When they arrive at the destination, Gao Ge parks the car here and Tang Jiusi sits up. The latter one fetches a bottle of water, takes several gulps of water and then starts to chew gum.
“Are we there?”
“Yes, we are.” Gao Ge nods his head.
Tang Jiusi opens the door and gets off car.
So does Gao Ge.
“Gao Ge, didn’t you expect to meet me again so soon?” With a short rest, Tang Jiusi feels much better. He washes his face with some water and then says to Gao Ge grinningly.
Gao Ge says smilingly, “So soon?”
“Actually, it is not a very long time since we met last time. Yet, I didn’t expect that you could grow so fast within a short period of time.” Tang Jiusi grins, “It seems that I am very smart. I didn’t piss you off before.”
Gao Ge smiles and says nothing.
“By the way, you are a leader of Team Four now, at the same level as me!”
“I am just lucky.”
The mound of Golden Monkey Town has remained for years. If you take a look at the local county annals, you will find that tens of battles have happened on the mound since ancient times.On the mound, there is still an ancient temple built in the Ming Dynasty, which has a history of hundreds of years. During the past troublous times, the ancient temple was bombed and repaired afterwards. It kind of gets through the disaster.The mound’s cracking happens to divide the ancient temple into two halves. And as to the monks living in the ancient temple, two of them are seriously injured and the rest are transferred away.The mountain road is not rough, which consists of renovated stone steps. Not only Gao Ge and Tang Jiusi but also Li are going uphill.Born and bred in Golden Monkey Town, Li has much knowledge about this place. He is the best tour guide here.“Sigh. To be honest, we locals are affectionate towards the mound.
The mound is shaking indeed, which feels like an earthquake.Gao Ge, Tang Jiusi and Li all stand firm with a frown.Standing atop, they feel the golden light again. Gao Ge finally finds the energy fluctuation.He takes a few steps forward and suddenly hears a cacophony of sound.Gao Ge and Tang Jiusi look each other in the eye.They are both shocked.Obviously, it is not that anything wrong is with their hearing.What sound is it...Gao Ge closes his eyes to listen carefully.It sounds like iron chains shaking.Gao Ge thinks of a scene without rhyme or reason.The chain of a bike drops and drags on the ground.Of course, it is only a metaphor. The chain of a bike cannot make such a big noise.“Gao Ge, don’t you want to jump down and take a look?” Tang Jiusi suddenly asks.Gao Ge looks at Tang Jiusi with
It is very windy on the top of the mound indeed.Sitting on the ground, Li is leaning against a tree, holding a cigarette with his fingers. As wind blows by, he has a puff at the cigarette. The smoke goes round the lungs and then gets pushed out of his mouth and nose.He has two butts around him.Li is a heavy smoker, who smokes two or three packs on a daily basis. After all, as a cultivator, the small amount of hazardous substance can be easily excreted out of his body. For cultivators like them, smoking is actually equal to eating sunflower seeds.He puts out his cigarette again and then stares at the position where the stone tablet is.Then he gets up slowly and takes a few steps forward.He bends down to pick up a rock as big as a fist.“Something is wrong...” Li frowns and digs a stone. As a result, the stone powder drops.Hence, he instantly takes out his phone and calls the
When the golden light disappears again, the stress is also gone.Even so, Gao Ge and Tang Jiusi still don’t slow down.It is kind of like the “Red Light, Green Light” game.When it calls Green Light, the other players must move faster.Otherwise, when the clatter comes again, they have to slow down again.Now time is very important.They have come to the end of the pass.“Gao Ge, who do you think built the mountain pass?” Tang Jiusi asks.“I don’t know.” Gao Ge shakes his head.“Use your imagination!” Tang Jiusi says.How can he imagine that?“We are doomed. It seems that we cannot move forward.” Tang Jiusi says.A few big rocks are stacked in front of them, which seems to block the exit. However, through the slots they are still faced with darkness.Gao Ge takes a few steps forward and turns around to look at Tang J
This world looks very... Quiet, peaceful and harmonious.It looks even of ataraxia.Men plough and women weave.It is a merry scene of singing birds and fragrant flowers.There are not too many noises and din.Anyway, this place is arguably a fairyland on earth.Gao Ge has a feeling that the scene described in Peace Blossom Spring written by Tao Yuanming is nothing more like this.However, the abrupt black rain breaks the current tranquility.When the black rain falls, the flowers and grass instantly wither.The farmland, just like the plants, is also drained of vigor.People keep falling down nonstop.The kite’s string is broken. In the black rain, it drops from the sky slowly like a bird without wings.Watching what is happening, Gao Ge and Tang Jiusi just feel so depressed.It is like a beautiful painting with per
At the moment, Tang Jiusi has a feeling of Zhuangzi’s Dream of the Butterfly.Although the fantasy doesn’t exist long, it just seems to last for years.Thus, it gives him a wrong impression.Zhuangzi’s Dream of the Butterfly.The butterfly is me?I am the butterfly?Upon seeing the monkey, Tang Jiusi is completely in a daze.He puzzles over it and still fails to figure out what it is going on.However, he is thunderstruck by what Gao Ge said.It is not dead yet?Hong long has it stayed?“Step back!” Gao Ge shouts and meanwhile throws a thump at the golden monkey.After escaping from the fantasy, he sees the golden monkey just striding towards them with a fierce look.Naturally, Gao Ge must get ready for the coming battle.When the monkey rushes at him, he has urged his power of stars to give it a blow.
Gao Ge can’t figure out why.Why does the bronze mirror in the star map disappear? Why does his fifth star map take the shape of the bronze mirror?These two things must be somewhat related but the link is unknown to Gao Ge.He feels something serious will happen!...On the top of the mound, an old man wearing a Chinese tunic suit is around 70 years old, followed by some young men.Li takes out a pack of cigarettes and shares them with the old man. The other people are piecing together the stone tablet that has been scraped off a layer.“Mr. Mu, it gives me a surprise that you are still working at the frontline! By reason, you should have been retired!” Li says smilingly.Mr. Mu heaves a sigh and says, “It’s not about time!”“Ha. Mr. Mu, I think that you should have been retired. You have two sons and they are very promising. Why do you still have to work at the fron
The inexplicable voice confuses and also insults Gao Ge.What is going on?Why is the voice full of scorn for him?Why is he being bullied like this...“Who are you?” He subconsciously asks.Tang Jiusi is staring at him in shock.He looks as if he has seen a demon.“Why are you so drunk...” Tang Jiusi disses him in a low voice.Gao Ge looks at him in surprise, “You didn’t hear any voice?”Tang Jiusi shakes his head and asks, “What is the voice you are talking about?”“Someone is talking.”“What did it say?”“It said that I was a stupid thing.” Gao Ge says.Tang Jiusi puts on a surprised look, “Who has such good eyes?”Gao Ge is speechless.As expected, two intellectually distinctive persons cannot communicate smoothly.However, Gao Ge starts to ruminate after calming down.
