I've been a courier for over three years, delivering many bizarre packages. Now, I'm here to tell you about some little-known incidents involving the delivery of human ashes!
That day...
According to the giant python's hint, Su Xiaoniu was most likely heading towards the south of the cave, so I walked all the way south, calling out "Niuniu" every time I walked a distance, but in the end no one responded to me.
Before I knew it, the view suddenly brightened, and I came to a very rugged and dangerous plank road. There was a group of tourists there, and I finally didn't feel like I was the only one in the world. I breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ran up to ask where I was. A tourist said, this is the Guigu Plank Road.
The Guigu Plank Road is located in the Mixian Wonderland Scenic Area, just along the cliff farther up from the Giant Python Cave where I was just now.
The 1,600-meter-long plank road differs from other paths in that it lies neither on the cliff's summit nor its side, but rather in the center of the sheer cliff face, creating a sense of rising and falling alongside it. Standing on the path and overlooking the mountains, one feels a sense of the ancient saying, "From the summit, all the other mountains are small."
Since Tianmen Mountain is a national forest park with particularly rich vegetation and typical karst landforms, walking on this plank road gives you the feeling of flying over a tropical rainforest canyon in a helicopter. This is a scene that you can usually only see in movies, but here you can experience it in person.
Standing here, there is endless green field under your feet, flocks of birds are playing at your feet, and occasionally an eagle flies by in front of your eyes. If it is before or after the rain, the fog is swirling around you on the plank road, and the sea of clouds is rolling under your feet. It makes you feel like there is fog when you lift your legs and like you are walking on clouds when you take a step. It is a paradise on earth and a paradise outside the world.
This is what a tourist told me. He has been here several times, but perhaps he has never had the opportunity to meet Master Guigu. After thanking him and saying goodbye, I set foot on this precipitous Guigu plank road.
The plank road features a 5-meter-long glass platform jutting out into the air, and a canyon suspension bridge suspended over a chasm. Here, there's no steel or concrete to obstruct it, only stark, transparent ground that greets everyone's screams! When I stepped onto it, I nearly peed my pants. Holy crap! The floor is transparent, like glass, in all directions. It feels like walking on air. If the plank road breaks, there's a very real risk of falling into the abyss...
If you can stand up straight and stretch out your arms, then you are a real warrior!
I followed a group of tourists, cautiously walking along the plank road. Gazing at the distant, rolling clouds and misty mountains, my mood naturally lifted. And just then, at the end of the plank road, amidst a dense forest, a streak of light suddenly flashed...
My heart tightened. Is that Su Xiaoniu?
Of course!
I pushed aside the others and started running on the plank road, madly running towards the end of the plank road. The tourists behind me were almost scared to death by me. When I pushed hard, they all screamed, especially the female tourists, who thought someone was plotting against them and wanted to throw them off.
It's no wonder. After all, this plank road is too scary. Even men would be scared. And after what I did, they were even more scared.
"Why are you pushing so hard?"
"You're sick!"
I ignored the women's angry curses and quickly rushed to the end of the plank road. Before me was still a mountain forest, filled with a variety of flowers and trees, mostly red torreya. But when I looked around, there was no sign of Su Xiaoniu. Looking back, my eyes widened. Why was there a bottomless abyss behind me? Where had the Ghost Valley Plank Road gone?
I ran to the edge of the cliff and looked out. It was indeed the abyss of the Guigu Plank Road that I had walked on before. But why was there only the abyss and no plank road after I ran past it?
this!
This is too weird!
Moreover, what does the fleeting glint of Su Xiaonu that just flashed before my eyes mean?
Could it be that Su Xiaoniu was guiding me in some mysterious way? She wasn't really angry, but was doing something that she couldn't let me know!
