However, Hengfa's sleep was comfortable, but Zhou Zhi's sleep was not so comfortable. Since his rebirth, he has always slept late and lightly, and now he doesn't sleep well.

I got up twice to add firewood, but I don't know what time it was until Zhou Zhi fell into a drowsy sleep.

He didn't think he had been asleep for long before Zhou Zhi was woken up by Heng Fa: "Elbow, wood, get up and watch a Western scene. You must like it!"

Zhou Zhi was still confused: "What Jing'er? I still want to sleep for a while..."

"This side faces the east. Don't you city dwellers like to watch the sunrise?"

"Eh?" Zhou Zhi woke up now and realized that there was a little light in the sky, making the outline of the cave entrance visible. Master Qiao had already begun to set up a tripod on the edge of the cliff outside, preparing to take pictures of the sunrise.

When Zhou Zhi came out of the cave with a yawn, the fresh air saturated with negative oxygen ions from the virgin forest hit his face, making Zhou Zhi feel refreshed.

The sky was still dark blue, but above the boundary of the mountains in the distant sky, there was a curved bright line, and above the bright line, there were sparse stars twinkling.

The sky gradually began to brighten, and the bright line began to advance toward the sky at an increasing speed, and the color tone of the mountain line also began to gradually change, from dark blue and light blue to dark purple and light purple.

, dark red, vermilion, orange-red warm colors.

As the hue and brightness change, the colors of the clouds and mist accumulated up and down the mountain line, as well as the color of the entire sky, also change brilliantly.

"It's so beautiful..." Watching the sunrise on the cliff was Zhou Zhi's first experience. No wonder Master Hengfa wanted to shake himself awake. Of course, such a beautiful scenery should not be missed.

The earth seemed to suddenly wake up. In the woods under the cliff and in the bird's nests, various birds began to sing and fly in groups. Taking advantage of this best and safest time, they moved from their habitats to

Go to the foraging grounds.

A golden line emerged from behind the mountains in the distance, then widened to both sides, slowly emerging into a bright arc.

The sun is coming out.

The camera shutter controlled by Mr. Qiao clicked loudly.

After passing through the most colorful nodes, the colors of the sky began to subtract, gradually turning into a uniform golden color. Then, as the sky gradually turned blue, the clouds also transformed into white.

It was only now that Zhou Zhi turned his attention to the ground, and found that the previously dark forest had turned into deep and light green before he knew it.

"Let's go, it's time to set off. Let's try to get to the Medicine Master Cave in the afternoon." Master Hengfa has already packed the luggage of several people: "Be careful when going down the cliff, the dew has not yet dispersed."

After filling the herbal tea on the pot into the kettle, the three of them began to descend the cliff.

Arriving at the foot of the cliff, Zhou Zhi looked up and said, "This is a good place. You should come and play when you have time."

Going down the slope to the stream, a few people washed themselves in the stream, took out the potatoes roasted yesterday, drank the herbal tea for breakfast, and started heading towards the Medicine Master's Cave.

The location of Yaoshi Cave is far more secretive than Guanyin Cliff. The sand and gravel in Danxia landform are not actually hard in texture. Although it is different from the water erosion in karst landform, it is still easy to collapse due to weathering and form a large number of caves.

Yaoshi Cave is such a place. It is said that the cave can lead to Drum Tower Mountain.

However, no one could confirm the authenticity. Zhou Zhi and Mr. Qiao also studied the history of bandit suppression in Gulou Mountain and discovered that Monk Wu was involved in intercepting bandits in Gulou Mountain and the legend that Yaoshi Cave can lead to Gulou Mountain, so they decided to come here to see it.

Take a look.

Unlike karst caves, whose landforms are eroded by water flow, Danxia caves generally do not have as much water flow as karst caves, and due to mountain collapse and water diversion, they are often relatively dry, and many are even very suitable for human habitation.

There are also Han Dynasty cliff tombs with Jiachuan characteristics that are suitable for being carved into tombs. Most of them are carved on such geological rocks.

After a hard day's work, at four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Zhi estimated that he had walked nearly thirty miles of mountain road before arriving at Medicine Master's Cave.

Danxia caves are generally corridor-style. For example, the grotto on Guanyin Cliff in the morning is a standard corridor-style Danya Grotto.

Even real caves are generally not very deep.

But Yakushi Cave is an exception.

The entrance to the cave is very large. It is five stories high from the ground to the top of the cave. The depth of the "foyer" is also fifty meters. It is simply a large square.

There is a pond at the door. The stream flows into the pond from the east and flows out from the west. Because the bottom is made of sand and gravel, the water quality is extremely clear.

There were countless small fish living on the bottom of the rocks in the pond. Zhou Zhi recognized them as stream groupers at a glance, with several vertical black stripes on their bodies.

If it weren't for Master Hengfa, Zhou Zhi would have had countless ways to catch them and have a feast with Mr. Qiao.

After swallowing, Zhou Zhi forced his head to turn and looked at the entrance of the cave deep in the large rock cavity.

Hengfa and Master Qiao were already organizing their equipment and preparing to enter the cave.

The length of the ropes carried by the three people was one kilometer. I heard that the passage inside the cave was complicated, so Zhou Zhi didn't plan to go very deep, so it was limited to one kilometer.

He turned on the headlights and tied one end of the connected rope to the backpack straps of the three of them. Hengfa stepped on the rope and said, "Elbow, we are going in."

"Well, be careful. When you reach a place where you cannot kneel forward, retreat. Even a martial monk cannot explore such terrain."

Mr. Qiao raised the camera in his hand: "How about I go in front so I can take pictures?"

"Brother, please stop making trouble, this is not a joke!" Zhou Zhi waved his hand: "Master Hengfa is very experienced, of course he will go in front! Hurry, come out and replace me in a moment!"

"Don't talk about wood, it's true when you look at the rope." Master Hengfa smiled and said: "To put it more seriously, our lives are all in your hands."

Zhou Zhi smiled irresponsibly: "The three backpacks add up to ninety kilograms. Master, you have to drag them away, so there is nothing I can do."

Hengfa rolled his eyes at him: "Let's go."

The two walked into the cave entrance. Hengfa released the rope and walked deeper into the cave. Soon the lights and people disappeared into the darkness.

Zhou Zhi looked at the dark hole and the rope on the ground, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be a power in the darkness, as if it wanted to suck people in.

This was a psychological reaction. Zhou Zhi quickly shook his head, putting aside such thoughts, and then remembered that famous saying.

When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares into you.

The best way to solve this problem is to distract attention by reciting. While Zhou Zhi went to the entrance of the cave to collect wood and organize the camp, he recited the saint's classics loudly to give himself courage.

""Quli" says: 'Don't be disrespectful, look thoughtful, and calm your words.' Peaceful to the people!

Pride cannot last, desires cannot be followed, aspirations cannot be fulfilled, and happiness cannot be extreme.

A wise person respects him when he is in awe, loves him in fear, knows his evil in love, and knows his good in hate.

Accumulation can be dispersed, peace can be moved.

When you are facing wealth, don't be afraid of getting it; when you are facing difficulties, don't be afraid of avoiding it.

Don't seek victory in the extreme, don't seek more points. Don't question the doubts, be straightforward and don't have them.

Ruofu, sit like a corpse and stand like a vegetarian. Follow the appropriate etiquette and make people follow the customs..."
