Shi Buquan didn't come back that night, and there was less fun at the dinner table, which made it even more eccentric. Eight people, including Zhuang Mengzhou, all held a stone and ate with chopsticks with their backhands. Zhuang Mengzhou has to drink some wine for dinner every day, and he has to put down his chopsticks when he takes the cup, and he has to put down the cup when he takes the chopsticks, which is a little busy.

After eating, everyone went back to the room to continue pondering the stones, and Ding Qi pulled Ye Xing to wash the dishes. Why don't others wash the dishes? It's inconvenient to hold a stone in your hand! Ding Qi put it down temporarily, and it was useless for Ye Xing to hold it, he ate ready-made food every day, and he had to make some contribution.

There was nothing to say that night, and the next morning, Ding Qi sat on the terrace holding Jing Wenshi and looked at the scenery, Tan Hanchuan and Xian Hao were beside him. They can't always stay in the house, and it may be better to change to an outdoor environment to "sacrifice" the vergantic stone, which is also Ding Qi's suggestion. The three of them seem to have found a feeling, and they are all experiencing it with their hearts.

But there are also those who can't bear it, so Shannie runs to the backyard pavilion to see Xiaojing Lake. Zhuang Mengzhou came early today, and did not go upstairs after entering the door, but went directly to the backyard. He saw Shang Ni open the door and stand there, so he asked, "Little junior sister, did you see Xiaojing Lake as soon as you came today?"

The door was open, and the mountains in the distance could be seen directly in the courtyard, but now the view is blocked, because there is also a bamboo forest planted outside the wall, and you can only see the shadow of the bamboo when you look up. Shanny replied, "I saw it as soon as I pushed the door, but I don't know if it was an instant sight, because I had already entered the country when I walked to the door." ”

Zhuang Mengzhou: "Teacher Ding is this purpose, it seems that you have all achieved it." ”

Ding Qi on the terrace looked at Tan Hanchuan and Xian Hao with questioning eyes, and the two also nodded slightly, meaning similar to Shang Ni's situation. It was precisely because Ding Qi's method had been confirmed that it was feasible that they would continue to "sacrifice" their respective Jingwen stones with their hearts, even holding them when they were eating.

Shang Ni in the pavilion said again: "Mr. Zhuang, let's not always hold stones. Come on, come on, try my newly practiced cloud kneading hand, so that you can also see it!"

Zhuang Mengzhou had just sat down on the beauty's side, and when he heard this, he quickly got up and waved his hand and said, "Don't don't, I don't know kung fu, you better find Ah Quan to try...... It's okay to find Lao Tan. ”

Shanny: "You're welcome, let's join hands." ”

Zhuang Mengzhou: "Am I being polite?"

Shanny: "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you...... Why don't you punch me first and see how I intercept your punch in the air. ”

Zhuang Mengzhou shook his head: "No, no, no, I resolutely won't do it!"

Shanny: "Then I'll slap you and let you feel the power control, just pat your shoulder, don't dodge...... Alas!"

The three people on the balcony suddenly heard Shang Ni let out an exclamation, and then Zhuang Mengzhou shouted again: "Xiao Nizi, are you okay?

Ding Qi and the others hurriedly ran downstairs and rushed into the courtyard, only to see Zhuang Mengzhou standing at the door with a confused face, and there was still Shang Ni outside the door! Just now, Shang Ni had to show her newly practiced cloud hand to Zhuang Mengzhou, and while Zhuang Mengzhou was unprepared, she suddenly jumped over and patted him on the shoulder. Zhuang Mengzhou dodged to the side, raised his hand on her wrist and pulled it back......

Shang Ni does know kung fu, obviously practiced, and her body is very good, but she has not mastered the strength. In order to unload the force, she turned a hollow heel forward and went straight out of the door. It is said that people should fall into the bamboo forest, but she is gone, but it is just a blink of an eye, where can people run?

Everyone looked around in the bamboo forest outside the door, and there was no trace of Shanni in the mountains outside the bamboo forest, in such a short time, even if she could fly, she couldn't fly out of this range. Ding Qi suddenly said, "Did she enter Xiaojing Lake?"

Everyone suddenly reacted and thought of this possibility, and they all took out stones and stood in the pavilion to perform their own secret techniques and looked into the small lake, and sure enough, they saw Shang Ni's figure. One of them flipped into Xiaojing Lake, Shannie was also a little dazed, and when she realized what had happened, there was suddenly a burst of surprise, and she shouted excitedly: "I'm in, I'm finally in!"

By the time everyone saw her in the gazebo, she had already gone out into the grass to find the moon lingzhi she had found last time. It was daytime, and she didn't seem to find it, so she took out her mobile phone from her pocket and took a lot of photos in the direction of the backyard door and above the door beam, looking like she was taking pictures of Ding Qi and them.

Then Shannie spun around for a while, sometimes obscured and disappeared from view, and then went up the hill, never to be seen from the gazebo again. When something like this happened, everyone first notified Zhu Shanxian, who works in the district government. When Zhu Shanxian came back, Shang Ni's figure appeared in everyone's field of vision again.

Seeing her descend the mountain and walk towards the lake in the distance, Ding Qi suddenly turned around and walked out of the pavilion, returning with a pair of tripods and a box, which were the instruments they used when they first entered Nanlan Mountain to survey.

Ding Qi opened the box for on-site installation, and asked: "District Chief Zhu, I don't know much about surveying and mapping, and I didn't ask in detail last time, what kind of instrument is this?"

Tan Hanchuan replied: "This is an old-fashioned optical theodolite, a product of the seventies of the last century, but the quality is very good, and there is no problem at all until now." ”

Zhuang Mengzhou: "Such an old instrument has long been an obsolete product, and now it uses a total station, with laser ranging." ”

Zhu Shanxian: "It's because of the elimination that I can take it out of the warehouse of the District Water Conservancy Bureau, and no one cares if I forget to return it for so long...... Mr. Ding, are you using it as a telescope?"

Tintzy: "Yes, just use it as a telescope, Shanny has gone a little far, so that she can see more clearly." ”

Xian Hao: "Can you see Xiaojing Lake with a telescope?"

Dingqi: "Yes, I saw it, you can try it too." ”

Xian Hao tried it, and said with some confusion: "I didn't see it." ”

Ding Qi reminded: "Stone, you forgot about the stone. If there is a small lake outside the door, it is the same with or without a telescope, and what you see from the telescope should also be a small lake. ”

When he was getting the instrument just now, Xian Hao put the stone in his pocket, and then took it out again, closed his eyes and stared for a moment to reopen his eyes, and came to the instrument and exclaimed: "Yes, I saw it! Xiao Nizi is actually playing in the water, she won't forget to come back, right?"

Fortunately, Shanny didn't forget to come back, it seemed that she just wanted to explore the way, walked to the lake, tested the water with her hands, took a few more photos, and then got up and went straight up the hill to the backyard door. When she reached the door, she looked confused again. At this time, she was already very close to several people in the courtyard, only a few steps away, that is, face to face, but her eyes were a little wrong.

Zhu Shanxian: "It's bad, she doesn't seem to see this, she doesn't know what she's looking at, is it any wonder she can't get out when she goes in?"

Tan Hanchuan: "How did she get in just now? Do we need to try to go in another one and bring her out?"

Xian Hao: "Don't worry, let's see what Senior Sister Shang Ni can think of, if you go in, you won't be able to get out, and if you go in again, won't the result be the same......?" Sister Shannie, take out the stones!"

Ding Qi: "She can't hear, she can't see it, she can't hear it, and it's useless to shout no matter how loud she is." ”

Shannie was not stupid, frowned for a moment, and then felt the stone out of her pocket. Just now, when she and Zhuang Mengzhou tried to show their kung fu together, they put the stone in their pockets, turned it over, and it didn't fall off, and they always carried it with them. After touching the stone, Shanny's eyes suddenly lit up, and the focus of her eyes seemed to change, and she beckoned to everyone: "I saw you!"

Xian Hao shouted: "If you see it, come out quickly and see if you can come out!"

Shanny jumped forward and jumped into the pavilion with a whoosh, and the four people in the pavilion hurriedly reached out to help her. Zhu Shanxian hurriedly asked, "Senior sister, what happened just now?"

But seeing that Shang Ni's expression had changed, she looked confused, and seemed to be frightened, she looked at everyone and said, "Can you teleport, why did you suddenly appear here, why is Senior Brother Zhu here...... What's wrong with me, what are you holding me for?"

Ding Qi suddenly reacted and said, "She has amnesia!"

Shanny: "Who's eleven? I'm twenty!"

Tintzy: "Do you remember what just happened?"

Shang Ni: "Just now I tried my newly practiced cloud hand with Mr. Zhuang, I stretched out my hand and patted it, he flashed to the side, my strength was empty, and the result was planted forward, and there was a flower in front of me...... And then you got caught, why did you move so fast...... Hey, what kind of expression is this, why are you stupid?"

Everyone was indeed dumbfounded, and their hands involuntarily let go. Shannie didn't remember what had just happened, and the memory in between the time she climbed into the lake to the time she walked out of the portal and returned to the pavilion was so mysteriously gone.

Shang Ni immediately noticed that something was wrong, and pointed to the tripod and theodolite and said, "Why did this instrument come here?

Xian Hao said cautiously: "Sister, take out your mobile phone, open the album and look at the recent photos." ”

Shanny: "Want to see my photo album?

Xian Hao said: "We don't watch it, you watch it yourself, and after reading it, you may understand what happened just now." ”

Shanni took out her mobile phone with confusion, and after opening the album, it changed color, her expression became more and more solemn, and her pretty face gradually turned pale. Without looking at his phone, Ding Qi also came to the conclusion that although the memory is gone, the photos taken by the phone are still there. He understood Shannie's feelings at the moment, this experience couldn't be thought about, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt inexplicable fear.

Ding Qi also had the experience of losing his memory, but he remembered that there was only one time since he was a child, that is, on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve last year, he drank and broke the chapter, and when he woke up in the morning, he did not remember what happened that night. The more you think about it, the more terrifying it becomes, and it can be very unsettling, and the loss of a memory is like a loss of self, not knowing what you have done.

Tintzy was in a fine situation that time, he knew that he had drunk too much, and he was the only one in the room at the time. But in other situations, such as when things can happen, the more you think about it, the more unsettling it becomes.

It took a long time for Shanni to flip the screen of her mobile phone, on which was a photo she took in Xiaojing Lake, and said in a trembling voice: "What happened just now, where did these photos come from?"

Ding Qi said as gently as possible: "Senior Sister Shangni, don't be afraid, go into the house and sit down and talk slowly......"

Everyone did not enter the house, and the most suitable place to talk was the terrace on the second floor, which had a shed to protect from the sun and rain, and the place was spacious enough. It took a lot of effort for Shanny to accept the fact that she had inadvertently flipped into Xiaojing Lake and lost her memory. There is a laptop on the dining table, and the new photos taken on the mobile phone have been entered into the computer, and everyone is zooming in to watch them one by one.

Tan Hanchuan squinted his eyes and said, "The pixels are not bad, the shooting is quite clear." ”

Shannie stared at the screen absentmindedly and said, "The new love crazy fork." ”

Xian Hao: "On the hill behind this gate, there is actually a manor, which is invisible from our side of the view...... Sister Shannie, is there anyone living in the villa?"

Shannie cried and said, "How do I know, I don't remember at all!"

Zhu Shanxian: "Fortunately, you have the habit of taking pictures wherever you go, otherwise these records will not be kept...... By the way, did you post on Moments at the time?"

"Circle of friends?" Shang Ni was stunned, quickly took out her mobile phone and looked at it, and then said, "I didn't post a circle of friends, nor did I post Weibo." I must have been sober at the time, not so stupid to send this kind of thing out publicly...... Besides, I'm afraid there is no internet signal in it, right?"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "What do you remember?"

Shanny replied with some uncertainty, "I didn't remember anything, I thought I was holding your hand, and I was shaken." But after you say this, it seems to be a little bit of an impression, and I recall a scene where I am waving to you through the door, and you are standing in the pavilion in the backyard......

But I don't know when this happened, but I just have an impression in my memory, as if I had a dream like this. ”

Tan Hanchuan: "This is what just happened. ”

Ding Qi analyzed: "If a whole memory disappears, only some fragments of the subconscious are imprinted, it will cause a sense of time confusion, and I don't know when it happened, as if I had dreamed about it." ”

Xian Hao: "Can you hypnotize Shannie and then awaken this memory?"

Tincey: "In my experience, it's not very likely. Even if I reproduced the scene in her subconscious, it was the result of conscious reprocessing. And it doesn't make much sense to do this, Sister Shannie has no psychological abnormality, let alone mental abnormality, she already knows exactly what is happening, and we have all seen it. ”

Zhuang Mengzhou groaned: "It makes sense, let's study what's going on inside and figure out what will happen after we go in, it seems that we need to be cautious." ”

Tan Hanchuan: "Let's take a closer look at the photos first, there seems to be no one in this manor......"

Shannie took a total of 45 photographs, 20 of which were of the manor and its surroundings. There are also 25 photographs of the mountains and the lake. Shannie must have been awake at the time, and although she went down the mountain to the lake, she did not go far, nor did she linger too long in the small lake, and soon returned.

Although Shannie doesn't remember anymore, based on everyone's observations and the angle from which the photos were taken, it can be roughly inferred that her whereabouts and encounters in the lake are roughly inferred. When I walked out of the backyard door and looked back, it was not a door, but a stone wall halfway up the mountain, but a door was "painted" on the stone wall.

This door is also painted in a good way, the threshold, the door post, the door beam, the lintel are complete, but there is no door panel, so it looks a bit like an archway. There is also a couplet written on the left and right doorposts, and the upper and lower connections are another five-character poem: "The door of the cave opens by itself, and the dust travels back and forth." The fairyland flowers are idle, and the lake and the moon are embraced. ”

There are four big characters above the lintel: the door outside the square. There is also a line of small characters below the doorpost on the left: Zhu Jingyi, the demon king of the South Gate. The calligraphy is very beautiful, very charming, and self-contained and unique.

This is consistent with the secret passed down by the ancestors of Zhu Shanxian in the past dynasties. It is said that Zhu Shanxian's patriarch Chen Mianzhu once met an immortal named Zhu Jingyi in Xiaojing Lake in the Ming Dynasty. Everyone didn't know before that this legendary immortal Zhu Jingyi actually called himself the Demon King of Nanmen.

Shang Ni muttered, "Why is it called the Demon King of the South Gate? The door on our side is facing south, and the door on his side should be facing north." ”

Xian Hao analyzed: "There is a mountain villa in there, the location that cannot be seen here is in the same direction as us, and relative to the location of the manor, this gate should also be on the south side." ”

If you walk out of the backyard door and turn around, there is a stone wall with a painted doorway, and there is a stone path on the right side of the stone wall that leads to the hill, and there is a manor above. There is a flat land in front of the manor, and there is also a four-corner pavilion on the flat ground, which is similar to the pavilion in the backyard of Zhu Shanxian's house, and even the location is about the same.

If the two spaces overlapped, the gazebo would be suspended directly above the gazebo on this side. There is a shelf in the gazebo, and on the shelf is a bright ruyi. Shang Ni deliberately took a picture of this Ruyi, and when she zoomed in on the photo and looked closely, it seemed to be pure gold.

Shanny: "Could this be pure gold?"

Tan Hanchuan: "When you get the real thing, you will know it by hand, it should be gold, which is also consistent with the legend." To take the juice of the moon lingzhi is to caress its top with gold, and this golden ruyi should be used for this. ”

Xian Hao: "There seems to be a transition between shades on the surface, why are there paw prints on it?"

Tan Hanchuan: "That's the dust and dirt, and the finger prints are Shang Ni's junior sister's, she should have reached out and grabbed it at that time." ”

The gazebo is open, and things placed in the open air are usually not covered with too much dust, because the wind will blow the dust away, but over time, a layer of slurry-like dirt will form on the upper surface of the object. This shows that this Jin Ruyi has been on the shelf for a long time and no one has touched it.

Look at other photos, the shape of the manor is antique, and it should be the shape of the Ming Dynasty after everyone's preliminary identification, and you can wait for Ah Quan to come back and then do further accurate identification, that kid is an expert in this area.

I don't know if this manor is uninhabited, or how long it has been uninhabited, but there is no sign of decay, the white walls of Daiwa seem to be half new and half old, even the vermilion paint on the door is intact, and the copper nails are not rusty, but the color is slightly heavy.

Shannie apparently pushed the door open and entered, taking a few photos of the courtyard. There are four tall laurel trees in the courtyard, the canopy is very thick, and its height is already more than two stories. The courtyard should be paved with stone slabs, but now the stone slabs are no longer visible, and they are covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves and fallen flowers, and the bottom is estimated to have accumulated into mud, and there is no place to put your feet.

Shanny probably didn't step on this thick layer of mud, but only walked around the corridor, and probably shouted a few times if there was anyone there, and then probably came out, and didn't continue to walk inside, at least not to take any more pictures of the deeper part of the manor. The next photo changes to the distant scenery of the lake and mountains, which is similar to what everyone sees at the backyard door.

But many of the close-up scenes that Shannie photographed when she descended the mountain were impossible for anyone to see before. There are a lot of exotic flowers and plants, Ding Qi downloaded a plant identification software on the spot, scanned the photos for identification, and many of them were identified, and many of them were difficult to judge, because the answers given by the software were obviously different from the original pictures, just similar in shape.

After Shannie came down to the lake, she took several photos of the lake, and they were all taken in the same position in succession. Ding Qi pointed to the screen and said: "This is it, there seems to be something in the lake, try to enlarge ......"
