Chapter Seventy-Nine: Behind the Wall

"Dream mirror, as the name suggests, is a mirror that makes people dream. It's very similar to your dream-making technique, so I said we'd better not take this job, and let the family find a place to bury this mirror. ”

"Since it's almost the same as me, then I have even more reason to solve this matter!" I was a little puzzled, "Don't you believe I'm going to be defeated by a mirror, do you?" ”

"That's not what I meant......," he sighed, turning his head to look at me, "If it's an ordinary person, the most you can do is hallucinate and do something drastic. But you're different, you have a sense with it, and once that sense reaches a certain frequency, maybe you'll really become one with the one in the mirror. In other words, it will copy you, and even you will not be able to tell what is true and what is false. ”

“……”

I didn't answer and gradually calmed down. He spoke to my heart. After that dream in the subway, I always felt that my heart seemed to be a little restless. I'll admit I'm not as determined as I used to be, but I don't want to admit that I'm going to be completely defeated by my fantasy self.

"How? If you think it's not good, I'll call Dong Jiajun immediately. ”

"No......" I shook my head, "I want to try ......"

He stared in surprise and seemed to have a hard time understanding the decision I had made. But he didn't say anything, and nodded faintly. He knew he couldn't beat me.

"Don't be afraid, at least I'm here." He smiled, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

If you want to know the story behind this mirror, you can't just guess here by the two of us. Moy has passed away, Moy's wife has also passed away, and Mrs. Dong has not been back to her hometown much, and she knows even less about this mirror. So we decided to go to the vicinity of Mrs. Dong's old house to see if we could get any clues.

When we told Mrs. Dong about the idea, she immediately agreed. Her hometown is in the countryside of N City, on the outskirts of the North Building District. The old house was occupied by my grandfather and grandmother, who were often away from Moy. They only have one child, Mrs. Dong's father. After her father got married, Moy's personality became more and more strange because of him, and he eventually ran away from home. I don't know where I went. Seeing this, the mother immediately entrusted the young Mrs. Dong to her grandmother and left the house. So the closest person to Mrs. Dong is her grandmother.

Mrs. Dong, who had an unhappy childhood, was carefully cared for by her grandmother, and had an unexpectedly good character, and did not become depressed because of her family's misfortune. Because of this, she is able to keep trying. Finally, I met Mr. Dong and started a family. The old lady was accustomed to living in her hometown and did not want to move here, so she lived alone in the countryside. Due to her busy work, Mrs. Dong rarely goes home.

The countryside is no stranger to me. According to the address given by Mrs. Dong, we quickly found the old house. The house was not large, but it was spacious, and some neighbors were eating at the door of their house with bowls, and when they saw us two strangers in the village, they stared curiously.

I was going to say go into the house and have a look. But Qin Chuyi's guy turned into a friend of women and greeted the two aunts who were eating.

"Hey, the food is so delicious, the two aunts are really good craftsmen!" He had an exaggerated expression on his face and praised him again and again.

As soon as they heard this, the vigilance on the faces of the two aunts was instantly swept away, and they changed to enthusiastic smiles, and immediately regarded him as their own. The biggest difference between me and him is that I don't like to be close to strangers, so I can only follow him together.

"Ouch, lad. You've got a good nose! Today's cooking is rapeseed oil, but our family squeezed it ourselves, and it is very fragrant, or not. Shall I go get two bowls and serve them to you both? ”

"Thank you so much! We happened to be back in time, and we were so anxious that we didn't even eat! ”

Okay, I'll just feed the dog a few meat buns on the road......

The countrymen are very enthusiastic and simple, especially the country aunts, once they get into them like Qin Chuyi, the gossip will definitely come easily. Sure enough, after a while, he began to cut to the chase.

"Auntie, I heard that Yufei's grandfather is not very at home."

After hearing this, the aunt stopped chewing her mouth, thought for a while, and said, "Isn't the whole village aware of Yufei's grandfather's affairs." ”

"Hey, the two of us are friends who rent out the house for her, if there are any rumors, this house is not easy to rent. Auntie, you just sue us, save a lot of trouble. ”

"Actually, it's not a big deal," the aunt put down her chopsticks and continued, "It's not all her grandfather's fault that this family has become what it is now." At that time, the old man was always mysterious and secretive, and he didn't tell anyone anything. The villagers who returned at night sometimes saw him coming home in the middle of the night with strange things. ”

"Strange stuff?"

"Yes, but it's dark and I can't see clearly," the aunt said vividly, completely forgetting that she hadn't finished her meal yet, "didn't he say that he worked at the Cultural Affairs Bureau, he must have stolen something and came back." Let me tell you, don't tell anyone else, the old lady can't figure out whether he died or disappeared in the end! ”

"Really!" The two of us were really a little surprised this time, although this kind of neighborhood gossip will always be spread by the gods, but there is no mistake about things like death.

The aunt nodded with a pout, and completely opened the conversation: "You said that there are people who don't put the body at home for a few days and bury it directly?" No one had ever seen the old man's dead body at all! Also, a few days before he died, someone came home at night with a very heavy object. To say that there is no distinction between black and white at night, but the red is very eye-catching, holding something in your hand and wrapping it in a red cloth! You say that the evil door is not the evil door! ”

Red cloth? I immediately thought of the dark red velvet cloth on the outside of the bronze mirror. If Moy dies shortly after the mirror is taken home, or his whereabouts are unknown, there must be something wrong with the mirror.

"Don't say that his whereabouts are uncertain, there are also problems with people!" The aunt on the other side also came over, "After being driven to the next room by Grandma Yufei, the room was locked, and no one knew what was in it." ”

"It's very problematic anyway! Maybe it's some evil devil, but the child is still sensible and capable, and our villagers are willing to help their family, which is likable! ”

"Two aunts, you guys are so good-hearted! In the future, the family will definitely be promoted and make a fortune! ”

As soon as Qin Chu finished speaking, the two aunts smiled from ear to ear, and they were holding a bucket of freshly squeezed rapeseed oil, which they insisted on giving to us. I half-pushed and half-took it on the spot, said thank you, and turned around and entered the door of Li Yufei's house.

The house is two stories high, with a front hall and a back kitchen on the first floor, which is spacious and bright. There are three rooms on the second floor, two rooms are connected to each other to form a large living room, which is where Yufei and her grandmother live, and a small door in the shade next door, there are traces of being locked and bumped in front of the door, this should be Moy's room.

The lock was no longer there during the last cleaning. The two of us gently pushed the door open, and a strong musty smell hit our noses. This room can't get the sun, and the curtains don't open, so it's easy to gather moisture. Legend has it that strange objects such as spirits like to gather in such cold and damp places. This Moy wouldn't have been in contact with this kind of thing, right?

After the last cleaning, all that was left of this room was a bed board in the middle and a small closet by the wall. I really felt that this room was too depressing, so I walked to the window and opened the curtain in front of me, but my hand suddenly stopped at this moment.

"What's wrong?" Qin Chu was also stunned when he saw me standing still and walked over.

Behind this layer of curtains, there are still walls, and there are no windows at all.

I suddenly felt a little difficult to breathe, and turned around and walked out of the room to breathe in the fresh air. That room was so depressing, how did Moy live in such a room.

I just ran out in a hurry, and accidentally kicked the rapeseed oil placed in the corner of the room, and the oil bottle shook a few times, and it was held steady by Qin Chuyi, but some of it still spilled into the corner. I squatted down and took a look, but fortunately, the traces were not visible, and it should not affect the rental of the house, and such a strange room should not be rented.

I looked at the oil dripping from the cracks in the wall and suddenly felt something strange. Not only did some oil spill laterally, but there were also tiny bubbles bulging up.

"Eh, why is this wall so evil?" Qin Chuyi also saw that he was tired.

We quickly lifted the curtains, and saw that there was a clear gap where this wall met that wall, and the colors of the two walls were also subtly different. We immediately ran out and asked the neighbor to borrow a hammer to knock on the wall and take a look.

"You say we're smashing other people's houses like this, is it really good?" I held the hammer and hesitated.

Qin Chuyi stood on the chair, stretched out his hand and knocked on the top corner, and there was a hollow "tuk, tuk" sound from inside. "Absolutely, knock!"

According to him, the average person builds a wall from the bottom up, and there is a certain pattern. The rest is either left to right, right to left, or both sides to the middle. He slammed his head towards the top corner, and the sound of his head shattering suddenly rang out.

I hurriedly ducked to the side, lest the falling bricks hit me. But the brick shook a few times and eventually landed inside, behind the wall.

"Hey!" Qin Chuyi wiped the ash on his face with his sleeve, and laughed cheaply, "This old man Moyi has some brains!" ”

As we both knocked and smashed, the wall with its curtains and false windows soon fell. I waved my hand vigorously to make the dust in front of me subside a little, and finally I saw the light on the other side of the wall.

The real window was now opening a small crack, and the warm breeze of the countryside carried the aroma of food, stirring my sweat-soaked hair. (To be continued.) )
