    Chapter 624: Secret Cave "Zi" Zuo Shaoyang thought that Zhong Xianyun had been practicing with his master on the mountain for several years. He should be used to everything on the mountain, and he shouldn't be too diligent, lest people say he has any intentions and take that away.  He put the single-handled sword beside her: "Okay, I'm going back. If you need help, you can come to me. I'll take one or two tigers away. Anyway, you don't kill people or eat meat, so just give it to me."  , Zuo Shaoyang walked away without looking back, came to the entrance of the cave, and carried the two tigers back to his cave.  He recorded the tiger skin!  The old nun's sword slashed the tiger's head but left no injuries on the body, so both tiger skins were intact.  A tiger-skin bed is very warm. Although he is not afraid of the cold, he does not reject a more comfortable bed. A tiger-skin bed is of course the best.  The meat of two tigers is enough to eat for a while.  By the time I finished my work, it was already afternoon.  Set up the stove and grill tiger meat.  His barbecue skills are now very good.  Bai Zhihan had prepared the condiments for him when they went into the mountain.  Soon, bursts of fragrance wafted out of the cave.  Zuo Shaoyang tore off a piece of meat and was about to put it into his mouth when he heard a rustling sound.  His ears are now very sensitive, and he can immediately distinguish the sound of the wind blowing in the treetops and the sound of animals walking by.  But the sound didn't sound like a beast.  It looks more like a human being.  Zuo Shaoyang's heart moved, he put down the tiger meat, got out of the cave, and saw a pretty figure at the bottom of the mountain slowly walking up the mountain.  As expected, it was Xianyun.  Zuo Shaoyang did not go down to greet him. Instead, he sat on a stone in front of the cave and waited quietly.  Finally, Xianyun reached the top of the mountain panting with a bed on his back, a package on his chair, and the sword in hand.  She was standing on a stone a few dozen steps away from Zuo Shaoyang and looking around.  She didn't know where Zuo Shaoyang's cave was. At this time, the sun had already set, and it would be dark in a while.  Xianyun was obviously a little anxious but did not dare to shout loudly.  Zuo Shaoyang finally spoke: "Xianyun!" Xianyun's delicate body swayed and almost fell off the big stone. He followed the voice and saw Zuo Shaoyang standing up from the stone: "Master Zuo!  "Xianyun separated from the thorns and shrubs and came to Zuo Shaoyang; his eyes were swollen from crying, and there were still tears on his face: "Master Zuo, can you send me down the mountain?" "Okay; you want it?  Where to go?" Xianyun was stunned, lowered his head and said: "I am an orphan. I have followed my master since I was a child. Now that my master is gone, I don't know where to go. It would be great if I could find a temple to practice."  No problem, I can help you find a nunnery." "Thank you so much!" A smile appeared on Xianyun's tear-stained face, "I don't know how to thank you." "You're welcome.  You're going to kill me." Xianyun blushed and said in a low voice: "No, you are so capable, you were just trying to scare me." Zuo Shaoyang led her up and down the treetops.  I already understood that Zuo Shaoyang was very good at Qinggong. The so-called jumping off a cliff must have been a joke to me.  Zuo Shaoyang smiled. He didn't want to go down the mountain now. The last month was definitely the craziest time for the emperor to find him. The possibility of going down the mountain and showing off his flaws was too great. He said, "However, I have to practice for three months before I can  It's still a month before we go back. When I finish cultivating, we can go down the mountain together, okay?" Xianyun was stunned for a moment: "Then'" Then" Zuo Shaoyang knew what she was worried about and said, "I  There is a cave here. You will live in the cave and I will build a hut outside.  OK?  Of course, if you are worried that I will do something bad, then you should go back to the cave where you and Master live for a month and I will call you.  Xianyun quickly shook his head: "How could it be possible? Mr. Zuo is a good man, and my master also said so."  ""oh?  Did your master say good things about me?  "Well, Master said you are a gentleman."  Reliable.  The master asked me to bring in the food you sent last time after you left, saying that you were kind-hearted.  "Haha, I will help you with this sentence. Okay, since you are not worried, you can live in the cave. I will build a straw shed outside."  "Then why are you embarrassed? How about I live in a hut and you live in a cave?" "Listen to my arrangement! I have been practicing for many years and I am not afraid of the cold. It is very cold in winter now. It will be warmer if you live in a cave. You are sick.  That's troublesome. I want to practice, but I don't want to take care of a patient!" Zuo Shaoyang said half-jokingly.  A forced smile appeared at the corner of Yun's mouth and he nodded: "Thank you, Brother Zuo! Can I call you brother?" Zuo Shaoyang is already in his forties, and Xianyun is only ten years old. By rights, he should be called uncle, but  After Zuo Shaoyang practiced the art of recuperation and vomiting, he greatly delayed his aging, so his appearance and body were almost the same as when he was in his twenties.  Zuo Shaoyang didn't bother to explain. Seeing that she was quite pitiful and it was okay to meet a girl, he smiled and said: "Okay, let's become brothers and sisters. It will be more convenient to live together like this."  I will call you little sister from now on!  Xianyun was overjoyed and said, "Little sister, meet your brother!"  "Haha, we will be brothers and sisters from now on, there is no need to see each other outside."  "Hmm"???Xianyun smiled and nodded with tears in his eyes.  Zuo Shaoyang took out the single knife he brought and immediately started chopping to build a simple thatched shed.  This straw shed is really simple enough. It has four brackets on four sides and a roof running across the top. Put the tied thatch on it and leave the four sides unsealed. It is simply a pavilion.  The bed is even simpler. Just tie two straight branches to the pillars and tie the hammock between them. The hammock was prepared for him by Bai Zhihan.  Xianyun helped him build the thatched hut. Seeing that the four walls were empty, he hurriedly said: "Brother Zuo, what should I do with these four walls?" "It's just empty. It's cool!" "Ah? It's very cold at night now, and look at this  "It's going to snow!" Zuo Shaoyang said. When he was in the Western Region, he would go out to practice every year, and he would practice in the wild. He was not afraid of the white snow.  It is relatively warmer here than in the Western Region.  After finishing the hay shed, it was completely dark.  Fortunately, there was still a fire in the cave and the light could be seen. The two sat around the campfire.  Xianyun naturally refuses to eat tiger meat when he leaves his family.  So Zuo Shaoyang helped her bake two white flour buns.  Xianyun ate very little and hardly spoke.  Still crying from time to time.  Zuo Shaoyang didn't know how to persuade, and he also knew that the more he tried to persuade this kind of thing, the more sad he would be, and he could only let time slowly smooth it over.  After eating, Zuo Shaoyang used firewood to build a firewood gate to block the entrance of the cave for Xianyun.  Then I went to sleep in the hammock.  At five o'clock the next day, Zuo Shaoyang practiced as usual and finished at dawn.  At this time, the cave door has been opened.  Xianyun had already made breakfast and cooked a pot of porridge. She also baked the white-flour buns, but she didn't touch the venison.  Zuo Shaoyang lit a fire in the open space not far outside the cave, and then roasted the tiger to eat.  Stay far away like this, so as not to smoke other monks.  After finishing the meal, Xianyun washed the dishes and tidied up the cave, and then went to collect firewood and mushrooms with Zuo Shaoyang.  Zuo Shaoyang was about to hit the prey when he saw it, but seeing the unbearable look on Xianyun's eyes, he put away his bow and arrows instead of shooting.  Just think of it as fasting.  The rest of the time, Xianyun was chanting sutras in the cave.  In this way, the two of them spent several days peacefully on the top of the cave.  On this day, Zuo Shaoyang and Xianyun went to the back mountain to collect firewood and pick mushrooms.  Xianyun suddenly stopped and burst into tears.  Zuo Shaoyang was very surprised and asked: "What's wrong with you?" Xianyun pointed to the distance: "That's the place where Master's eyes were blinded by miasma." Zuo Shaoyang knew that Xianyun and the old nun were there three years ago  When looking for a place to practice on Huashan Mountain, I discovered this cave. The old nun entered and was blinded by the miasma.  If it weren't for her blindness, the two tigers wouldn't be able to hurt her.  I can't help but feel sad.  He raised his eyes and looked at the cave in the distance.  The cave is located on a rock wall with a relatively gentle slope. A giant pine stretches out into the air, which is really beautiful.  Early the next morning, Zuo Shaoyang finished practicing his kung fu, and Xianyun was doing morning lessons in the cave while he wandered around alone.  Somehow, I visited the place where Xianyun's master was blinded by smoke.  With nothing to do, he decided to go take a look.  This cave is very hidden. If Xianyun hadn't pointed it out to him, he would have never imagined that this was a cave entrance.  The slope is quite steep and covered with thorns.  It was difficult to get close to the cave entrance from the ground, so he used the high-and-high technique to pass through the treetops and reach the cave entrance.  There is nothing unusual inside.  He threw a stone in and nothing happened.  He wasn't going to go exploring. Curiosity could kill someone.  He sat at the entrance of the cave and looked at the stone wall opposite.  Zuo Shaoyang¡¯s eyes fell on the opposite mountain wall. He looked at the mountain wall just like he was looking into a mirror.  He has climbed there countless times, looking for the secret treasure, but to no avail.  His eyes moved and fell on the Evian Temple deep in the dense forest next to it.  It was exactly three hundred feet from the temple to the mountain wall directly opposite. He searched there many times but failed to find the treasure.  Where is the hiding place?  He was very puzzled and sat there staring at the opposite mountain wall in a daze.  It would be great if the mountain wall on the opposite side was like the mountain I am on, so I could walk freely!     Same?  Yes. Why must the treasure be on the opposite mountain wall?  This mountain peak is also a cliff.  It's just that this cliff is gentler than the other side.  He remembered that the original sentence hidden in the Analects of Confucius was: "There is a rock pine on the cliff." His side is also considered a cliff, and the entrance of the cave is also located on this side of the cliff. And there is also a rock pine!  Could it be that the treasure is not on the cliff opposite, but on the cliff where you are sitting?  He was so excited by this idea that he jumped up and visually measured the distance. Sure enough, the cave here was exactly the same distance from the mountain wall on the other side that he measured at the time and was three hundred feet away from Evian Temple!  In other words, this cave is also three hundred feet away from Evian Temple!  At that time, I only focused on the word cliff, 89.The machine provided text updates. I was paranoid that the cliff was a steep cliff, and thought that the relatively gentle rock wall where the cave was located here was a hillside, so I didn't pay attention to this side.  In fact, this side can be considered a cliff, just a cliff with a gentler slope!  His eyes turned back to look at the hillside where he was. Suddenly, his mind moved. There were two less obvious peaks on this hillside. The tops of the hills were round. Could this be the so-called "Twin Peaks Mountain"? Looking back, he looked at the steep mountain on the opposite side.  The mountain wall, the top of the mountain is so curved that it doesn¡¯t look like twin peaks.  I only paid attention to the word "cliff" but ignored "Shuangfeng Mountain". In fact, the mountain here is Shuangfeng Mountain, and it is also located to the right of Evian Temple!  You have found the wrong place!  The buried place of the treasure is actually in this cave hidden under the stone wall and rock here!  Zuo Shaoyang was extremely delighted by his discovery.  However, he immediately became unhappy again.  There is a miasma in this cave that once blinded an old nun!  How to break through this miasma?  Three years have passed. Has the miasma inside it disappeared?  Zuo Shaoyang decided to test it out.  Of course, he would not take the risk himself. He went back to the cave where he lived, took a rope, and captured a monkey to serve as a sentinel.  There are monkeys everywhere on Huashan Mountain, and there are few people here, so the monkeys are not very afraid of people.  And with his current ability, it is still very easy to catch a monkey alive.  He tied the monkey with a rope and put it into the cave. He used rocks to hit the wall of the cave to scare the monkey. The monkey was so frightened that it kept drilling into the cave and kept pulling the rope.  The rope was released for more than ten feet and then stopped. Zuo Shaoyang tugged. When there was no movement, he quickly retracted the rope.  Pulled the monkey out.  The monkey is dead!  There were no external injuries on the body and no ulcers on the skin, but the eyeballs turned gray-white!  There is miasma inside!  And this miasma will cause damage to the eyes containing moisture!  No wonder, it¡¯s strange that there is no mechanism in a place where such an important treasure is hidden.  How to break through the poisonous gas?  It would be nice to have a gas mask.  No, make one yourself?  He studied medicine, but he never learned how to make a gas mask.  What about making an oxygen tank?  If you don't breathe the air in the cave, but breathe the oxygen in the oxygen bottle, wouldn't you be able to avoid the poisonous gas?  This should be more suitable than making gas masks.  Now you need to make a sealed oxygen mask and a large jar. Although it lacks a compression device, a large bottle of air should be able to last for a while.  The material of course is leather. The skins of the two tigers that Xianyun¡¯s master killed last time have been recorded and used to make beds. They can be used as breathing apparatus!  What to do with the eyes?  He couldn¡¯t think of a good way, so he could only try closing his eyes first.  He returned to the cave. Xianyun had finished his morning classes and prepared meals. Of course, there was no meat.  So I don¡¯t choose.  After eating, he Qing Xianyun helped himself sew two large water bags with tiger skin and connected them to a one-foot-long tiger skin hose. They must be airtight and water-tight.  Needlework is an essential skill for ancient women.  Xianyun is no exception.  Using the flying stitches, the two bags were quickly sewn.  Zuo Shaoyang filled it with water and tried it. As expected, it did not leak. He was very happy.  While Xianyun was sewing the bag, he made a simple pump out of bamboo and tiger skin.  In the afternoon, Xianyun chanted sutras and practiced. Zuo Shaoyang came to the cave again with two bags, bamboo tubes, and ropes.  He first tested how long a bag of air could last.  After testing, it can probably last for one meal. Judging from the time it takes for the monkey to enter, a bag of air is enough to sustain him for one trip.  Feel a little at ease.  He still didn¡¯t want to do it directly, so he decided to conduct an experiment with monkeys first.
