Chapter 70: The old mansion cries and becomes suspicious
Bidding farewell to Uncle Zhong and Aunt Ma, Liu Minran drove straight to his hometown in Xingxian County. Liu Minran's hometown is on the outskirts of Xingxian County, and it is only half an hour away from the county seat.
About two hours later, they finally arrived at Liu Minran's old house, which was actually a two-story concrete building. Because no one has lived in it for a long time, the front and back of the house are overgrown with weeds, the walls are mottled, and the windows are covered with cobwebs, giving people a sense of desolation and loneliness.
Looking at the old mansion in front of him, Jiao Maosheng seemed to have regained some familiar memories, and couldn't help but approach the door. When he looked up and saw that the door was not locked, he tried to push it and enter, looking for his childhood memories, but he didn't open it. He looked down at the door, as if someone had entered, and he wondered.
The memory left by the old mansion to Liu Minran is only vague, she left here when she was very young, and later only occasionally followed her aunt Liu Lemei back to see her grandma and grandpa, not to mention any special memories.
What's more, the current old mansion is scarce, except for adding sadness, it can't evoke many good memories of yourself. She decided not to stay here any longer, but to pay respects to her father and grandmother's graves and sweep them before returning to the city. She saw Jiao Maosheng looking around, so she called out to him, Brother Mao, let's go to the cemetery, don't waste time here.
"I want Mom!" came a child's voice that seemed to have been suddenly gagged.
"Minmin, I seem to hear a child crying!" Jiao Maosheng was leaning at the gate and listening carefully, his face was very nervous, his eyes were very persistent, and he said loudly, "I want to go in and have a look." ”
"Aren't you suffering from hysteria like Aunt Ma? Our old house has not been inhabited for many years, how can there be a child's cry? Do you really think that you will encounter a ghost in broad daylight. Liu Minran didn't hear the voice, she didn't quite believe what Jiao Maosheng said, thinking that he was hysterical.
"It was Minmin talking to Mao'er just now!" A taro-like head suddenly stuck out of the window on the second floor, shouting below.
"Uncle, are you also coming to the old mansion?" Liu Minran never dreamed that his uncle would be in the old mansion, looking at Jiao Yuan in the window with wide eyes.
Jiao Maosheng was also surprised, he turned around and walked out of the staircase, looked up at Jiao Yuanfang in the eyes of the upstairs window, and grinned, Dad, when did you come?
"Didn't Min Min say that he came to his hometown to sweep the grave? But you didn't come back all night, your mother didn't worry about the two of you, let me take a look, and when you were in the morning, you would. "Jiao Yuanfang said everything is true, and it doesn't leak.
"I'm sorry, uncle, for worrying you. Liu Minran didn't expect her aunt Liu Lemei to be so worried about herself, and she sent her uncle to follow them, and her heart was like a deer.
Jiao Yuanfang retracted his head, and said carefully to the other person inside, Qingbao, you watch carefully here, don't make any more noise, do you hear it? I'll go down first.
"Mr. Jiao, you put one hundred and twenty hearts, I know. Qingbao patted his chest and swore an oath.
Jiao Yuanfang took the door, walked downstairs with a bang, opened the door of the hall, flashed his thin body out, squinted his small eyes, and said with a serious face, Why did you come to the old mansion now? Where did you two go yesterday?
"That's right, uncle, we met an acquaintance when we went out of the city, and we went to Meifeng Mountain with him to play. Liu Minran was not stupid enough to say that he was looking for Zhang Gaokai, so he had to tell a big lie.
"Mt. Meifeng is fun, Dad. It was impossible for Jiao Maosheng to truthfully say that he was going to see Wen Jinhe, obedient and bosom friend, and immediately came out to play sloppy.
"It's good to be back safely, but you also have to make a phone call back, and your mother has been worried all night, which is really worrying. Jiao Yuanfang took out Shang Fang's sword and came out, and there was no hint of complaint in his tone.
"Dad, what's there to worry about, we're all adults," Jiao Maosheng is a jack-of-all-trades, he is afraid of Liu Lemei, but he is not afraid of the thin father in front of him, and said with a smile, "What can happen?"
"Don't stay here anymore, why don't you go and sweep the grave of your grandfather and them. Jiao Yuanfang didn't seem to want to talk to them more, so he issued an eviction order.
"I want to see the old mansion and then go to the cemetery," Jiao Maosheng's eyes flickered, and he said with a puzzled expression, "Dad, I seemed to hear someone crying just now, did you hear it?"
"It's a mess in the old mansion, what's there to see, you better go directly to the cemetery," Jiao Yuanfang first rejected Jiao Maosheng's desire to enter the old mansion to have a look, and then stared at Jiao Maosheng with the same puzzled eyes, "Mao'er, didn't you sleep well last night?
"Let's go, Brother Mao, don't think nonsense, you must be distracted. Liu Minran felt that Jiao Yuanfang would not let them in, so he immediately came out to play a round.
Jiao Maosheng said "hey", but he didn't speak, but he was thinking about the muffled cry he heard, the cry was not loud, as if someone was pinching his throat as soon as the voice came out, and soon his breath was slight, and it disappeared abruptly.
When he said to Liu Minran, Liu Minran said that he had hysteria, obviously, she didn't hear the sound, which is not surprising, he himself couldn't hear it exactly, and he wondered if he heard it wrong.
The sudden appearance of his father, Jiao Maosheng, really surprised him and dispelled his doubts. However, when he thought about it carefully, he felt that there must be something strange in it, why did his father appear in the window on the second floor unconsciously when he wanted to go into the old mansion to have a look?
"Brother Mao, what are you thinking? It's like losing your soul. Liu Minran glanced at Jiao Maosheng, who was walking with his head bored, and felt that something was wrong, Brother Mao couldn't stop talking on weekdays, could it be that he was on his mind?
"Am I thinking about that voice?" the mystery in Jiao Maosheng's heart was not completely resolved, and he said a little absent-mindedly, "A mosquito-like voice that wants to be suddenly choked." ”
"Which voice? Brother Mao, you haven't been caught in an evil spirit. Liu Minran raised his eyebrows, the light was slightly exposed, deliberately stimulating him.
"Minmin, do you really believe in those superstitions, how can there be any evil in this world? Where are there any ghosts and gods? Jiao Maosheng obviously didn't let go, he didn't agree with Liu Minran's statement.
Jiao Maosheng's words naturally aroused Liu Minran's thoughts, although she didn't hear any crying, but she felt a little unbelievable about her uncle's sudden airborne, he said that it was his aunt Liu Lemei who was not worried about them and waited here for them, because she was afraid that something would happen to them.
However, when she thought about it seriously, she felt that something was wrong, why did her uncle appear when Brother Mao wanted to enter the old mansion? Is this a coincidence, or is there another hidden secret?
Brother Mao kept muttering that he could hear the cry of a child, did he hear it wrong, or did it really exist? Could it be that his old house was really haunted? But when Brother Mao asked his uncle if he heard the cry, his answer was indeed impeccable. What the hell was going on? She really couldn't figure it out.
Liu Minran's face was full of peach, her red lips opened slightly, and she smiled and said, Brother Mao, I really didn't hear any crying, it can't be that you heard it wrong, right?
"Actually, I'm not sure, but I've heard it clearly, why is it all of a sudden?" Since the two closest relatives didn't believe in the existence of this voice, Jiao Maosheng was also a little uncertain, and he said with annoyance, "Hey, I don't want to, maybe I heard it wrong." ”
