Chapter 9: Ghost Collision
It is now the off-season of Beijing tourism, there are not many tourists in the park, the weather is good today, the wind is beautiful, some individual visitors are walking to visit, take pictures, and there are several tour groups led by the tour guide to explain the history and legend of Prince Gong's Mansion. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
I've only been here once or twice before, when I was in high school, Zhang Meng enrolled in a training class at the 13th Middle School next to me when I took the self-exam, and I often wandered around the neighborhood when I had nothing to do.
Prince Gong's Mansion is not large, and there is no particularly commendable scenery, in fact, these official residences, gardens, and gardens are all the same, and it is not interesting to see more. The reason why Prince Gong's Mansion is famous is that it used to be the residence of the big corrupt official He Shen, since the Prime Minister Liu Luoguo and a number of Qing Dynasty costume dramas were on the air, He Shen has been well known, and Prince Gong's Mansion has also attracted tourists from all over the world. Another point is that in recent years, the boiling haunting incident of Prince Gong's Mansion uploaded on the Internet, it is said that every night when thunder and lightning are combined, lightning shines on the wall of the ancient building of Prince Gong's Mansion, there will be an image of a Qing Dynasty palace maid, and some people have also taken these images and made videos on the Internet, causing heated discussions. Prince Gong's Mansion has also added a tourist project called Night Tour of Prince Gong's Mansion, which is to satisfy people's curiosity about mysterious things.
It is rumored that there were two subordinates in the palace that year, and the two were happy, discussing to elope, on a night of strong winds and thunder and lightning, the woman came to the garden of the palace alone, and when she saw that there was no one around, she used a hoe to dig up her savings that she had buried there, and was later discovered, and finally both of them died unjustly, so every night when the wind was strong and the thunder and lightning were combined, the image of the woman would reappear in a corner of the palace. Of course, these are just legends.
I know that Zhang Meng has never believed in evil, and he doesn't believe in any ghosts or gods at all, and the purpose of entering the garden is definitely not to explore whether Lao Guo's ghost is not dispersed, and whether he is waiting for us to visit in the garden. He has only one purpose, that is, the old problem of Sanlian Bookstore has been committed again, he often says that "thieves don't go empty", he can't come in for nothing, he must want to come in to see if there are any beautiful women, whether he can meet adventures or something.
When I said what he thought, Zhang Meng sighed: "Dongzi, I didn't expect you to still know me so well after so many years, why do you always think of me so vulgarly?" The purpose of my entry into the park is to explore the cultural heritage and historical accumulation of the Chinese nation...... Alas, wait, look over there, there's a fairy sister. ”
I followed his gaze, and sure enough, there was a girl who looked very special among the tourists in a tour group.
This tour group is about 20 people, a tour guide in front of him holding a flag, holding a loudspeaker, standing in front of the "Second Palace Gate" and explaining: "Prince Gong's Mansion was built at the end of the eighteenth century, early for the Qianlong period of the university scholar and Shen mansion, and Shen won the Qianlong weapon, but the corruption perverted the law, to Qianlong died, Jiaqing committed suicide with 20 crimes. He Shen has been an official for more than 20 years, and all his assets have been returned to Emperor Jiaqing. So there was a saying at that time: "He Shen fell, and Jiaqing was full." "The house was confiscated, and it was given by Jiaqing to his younger brother King Qingjun, and in the first year of Xianfeng, it was given to Prince Gong Aixin Jueluo Yi?. Prince Gong's Mansion is the most complete and well-furnished Qing Dynasty palace in Beijing. Mr. Hou Renzhi, a famous scholar, called it "a palace of Prince Gong, half of the history of the Qing Dynasty"......
The tour guide explained very energetically, but the tourists basically did not listen carefully, there were jokes, slapsticks, chats, only the girl, standing in the crowd and listening quietly, it seemed that everything around her had nothing to do with her, only the past of Prince Gong's Mansion deeply attracted her. She is also dressed very specially, this group of tourists all wear a uniform red hat printed with the logo of the travel agency, only this girl does not wear a hat, her long hair is black and straight, and she wears a white Chinese coat, although she does not apply makeup and powder, but she looks so outstanding in the crowd, and the pale face has a slightly sad expression, which is even more touching. What struck me as strange was that the crowd kept moving and going, but as if the girl didn't exist at all, it didn't seem to have any intersection with anyone, and the walking crowd never seemed to be able to touch the girl, it felt like they were in two different worlds.
Zhang Meng sighed beside him: "This woman should only be in heaven, how many times can I hear it in the world?" After speaking, he touched it in his pocket, and he didn't touch anything for a long time, and then he touched it in my pocket.
"Hey, hey, where are you going? Why? I asked.
"Mobile phone, I forgot to bring it, did you bring it?" Zhang Meng asked anxiously.
"What are you doing?"
"Hurry"
Before I could speak, Zhang Meng reached for the mobile phone in my pocket, took it out, and then found the direction of the girl and stood in front of me, "Hurry up, take a photo"
I smiled wryly and shook my head, it's really a dog can't change eating. With his character, if he changed to another girl in the morning, he must have been shocked by this girl's aura, and felt that he was boring in the past, and he really couldn't help it, knowing that he had no malice, everyone had a love for beauty, and low-level fun was not guilty, so he took a casual photo with his mobile phone as he said.
After taking the photo, Zhang Meng hurried over and looked at the photo on the phone: "Dongzi, there is a long progress, now the photography technology is not bad, remember that in the past, you took pictures either half of the brain, or half of the thigh, look at this one, how accurate the camera is, just catch up with the girl to look here, take a straight face, not bad, this is not in vain." ”
I took a look, it was really, I took a random photo, and I took a panoramic photo, the girl was behind Zhang Meng, just turned her head to look here, and from the photo I saw the girl's face, there was really a detached beauty.
"Come on, come on, don't get intoxicated", I said "pay attention to quality". After saying that, he glanced at the group of tourists, but found that the girl was gone.
While we were wandering in the garden, Zhang Meng couldn't help but regret it: "It's a pity that I didn't know each other." ”
After a while, we moved to the back cover building between Prince Gong's mansion and the back garden. The whole building is more than 160 meters long, and there are 108 rooms in it, commonly known as "99 and a half rooms", which takes the meaning of Taoism "profit upon expiration". The back cover building is actually the treasure building of Heshen, and many treasures were hidden in the back cover building in the past. There is a mezzanine on the wall of the rear cover building, and the mezzanine is a place where the treasure is hidden. There are a total of 88 windows on the back wall of the rear cover building, of which 44 are of different shapes on the upper floor, and it is said that He Shen recorded the types of treasures hidden through the different shapes of the windows.
At present, the building is not open to the public, we walk all the way west along the back cover building, and the exit of the garden is bypassed the back garden. It's relatively remote here, there are no other tourists, I was thinking about Lao Guo while walking, Zhang Meng counted the windows of the back cover building while walking, and probably still remembered the beauty just now.
Walking and walking, Zhang Meng suddenly said, "Ah! He screamed.
"What's wrong? What hysteria do you have? Scared me. I asked.
"Just now, in that diamond-shaped window upstairs, I saw a big white face staring at me! There is only a face, no neck and no body. It's there." I didn't see that Zhang Meng was joking, so I looked where he was pointing and didn't see anything.
"What's the face? Are you wrong? I said.
"You can't be mistaken, there was indeed a face just now, just inside that window, and that thing was staring at me", Zhang Meng said.
"Maybe it's the staff?" I say.
"No way, I obviously saw that there was nothing under that face, neither a neck nor a body," Zhang Meng retorted.
"You've never believed in ghosts and gods, what's wrong today? It must have been nervous to hear what Lao Guo had just done, don't think about it, let's go", I said.
Zhang Meng muttered as he walked out of Prince Gong's Mansion with me.
Not long after I got home, Zhang Meng called me and asked me to send him a photo with the beautiful woman and enjoy today's loot. It seems that he has not been affected by the incident in the back cover building in the slightest, and his interest in beautiful women is far greater than that of ghosts and gods.
Hung up the phone, I looked for the photo in my mobile phone, when I found it, a strange and terrifying thing happened, I saw that there was no beauty in the photo, a white Chinese coat, wrinkled old lady standing behind Zhang Meng, a pair of sad eyes seemed to be staring at me outside the photo, Zhang Meng had two black shadows on his neck, it seemed to be a pair of black hands pinching Zhang Meng's neck. I felt a "groan" in my heart, and I didn't dare to look at it anymore, so I quickly deleted the photo. I didn't tell Zhang Meng about this, I only said that the photo was deleted by mistake, Zhang Meng sighed after getting the news: "It's really a lifelong regret", I said in my heart: "If you see that photo, it's strange if you don't have insomnia for life, and you will definitely have to regurgitate when you see a beautiful woman in the future." ”
Actually, I've always had reservations about "ghosts", and although I don't agree that this thing must exist, I don't deny the possibility of its existence. A research institute in the United States once did a very famous experiment called "disappearing 0.02 grams", which found that a person's weight will disappear by 0.02 grams from the moment of birth to death, which is said to be the weight of the soul. There are also scientists who believe that in addition to the body, brain waves are also a kind of energy, according to the law of conservation of matter and energy, after the death of a person, the body into other substances follows the conservation of matter, but the human brain waves should also follow the conservation of energy, and it is possible to transform into other energy, this energy is the so-called "ghost". Of course, these are just inferences that have not been scientifically confirmed.
The clue of Lao Guo's address is broken again, and the dead "Lao Guo" in Prince Gong's Mansion makes this matter even more confusing, is that "Lao Guo" the "Lao Guo" who sold me the Jade Buddha? The answer is again a mystery.
Since you can't figure it out, let's stop thinking about it and get down to business. I dialed the number of the antique wholesaler that Zhang Meng had given me. On the other end of the phone was a young man's voice, he said that it was Boss Zhang's nephew, his uncle forgot to bring his mobile phone when he went out to run errands, and if he had anything to say to him, he could tell his uncle. I asked him to tell Boss Zhang that he would meet at the "Wu Yue Legacy" teahouse in Dongsi at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon to discuss business matters. The young man said he would tell me.
At two o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, Zhang Meng and I came to the "Wu Yue Legacy" teahouse as promised, and saw that there were not many people in the teahouse, only three or four tables of guests were sparsely seated, and on a table near the window, there was a person sitting alone.
Did you hit the ghost again?!
