At this time, I saw the fat man quietly observing something while lighting the lamp and boiling wax, and the room I prepared was Zhao Feiyan's room, which was also brightly lit.

It's about half past two in the middle of the night, and they don't like to sleep at all.

I knocked on the door first, and came to the fat man's room, whether the fat man had expected to come, but he didn't look back, and said, "You are here, I am investigating the history of this village, you can come and have a look!" ”

When I approached, I found that the fat man had a book, which was published in the eighties, and it was about some leisure magazines about the geographical environment.

The content of the book is dedicated to investigating some unknown places in Chinese geography, some places with characteristics, and there is such a chapter about such a village.

The history of the village is similar to what we know, that is, this village, since the Ming Dynasty, has maintained the appearance of the year, with the development of society, this village is not with the world at all, in order to maintain the characteristics of the village, the local residents have always refused to enter the village with outside technology, and because of several beatings with the local government.

There was even a riot, but the government was more lenient, and when it knew what the whole villagers were thinking, it stopped interfering with the nice things here, which was called taking a step back, and simply giving up, so the village was not under the jurisdiction of the government at all.

As long as nothing too big happens, then it's basically a blind eye.

We've heard about these things before, but the main thing about this book that I don't understand is that there is a sentence in the upper right corner of the book.

It reads: "The ruins of a village in the Ming Dynasty, nestled between mountains and rivers, this place is called..."

I haven't finished reading this sentence, but the most important thing is that the big characters of the Ming Dynasty village ruins caught my eye.

I turned back to the fat man and said, "Is it a mistake on the part of the author of this book when I say fat?" ”

The fat man sighed and replied: "The poor monk doesn't know that the author of this magazine has passed away a long time ago, and this magazine has ceased publication. ”

I frowned, looked at the book, and found that the publishing house had indeed long since gambled out of business, and was in a completely antique state.

In fact, what caught my attention the most was the ruins of this village!

These two words are not to be used indiscriminately, as they usually describe something that once existed but no longer exists, like the Old Summer Palace in Beijing.

But this village, after several investigations, does exist, and we are here now, how can we use these two words to describe it?

The people in the village are very enthusiastic, they are all alive, if this book is written correctly, then there is only one possibility, this Ming Dynasty village was empty, but then for some reason, some villagers came back here and saved the village.

That's how we see what we have today.

While I was discussing with the fat man, I turned the book backwards, and there was a lot written about this Ming Dynasty village, and the book itself was a book of about 200 pages, which introduced dozens of different interesting geographical locations.

In each place, the length of the article occupies about three or five pages, but the content of this village actually occupies more than 20 pages, at least the author has a deep study of this village, or is very interested in this village, so I deliberately wrote so much, wrote so many detailed contents.

However, in this village, there is a strange place written at the bottom, and the author did not explore and understand it.

The name of this place is Deep Water Pool.

In the south of the village, two miles forward, there is such a deep pool, because the water in the plate is polluted by pitch black, resulting in bottomless, the pool covers an area of about 2,000 square meters, every night in which I hear someone wailing The sound is terrifying, until now I don't know where this wailing sound comes from?

When the fat man turned the book here, I suddenly felt that something was not right, and I patted the book and said, "Where did you get this book from?" ”

The fat man replied: "I took it out of the museum, and it was supposed to be a few days of music, but after thinking about it carefully, this book is well written, and I don't plan to return it!" ”

Fat people don't do much about things like this, and I don't bother to criticize them, I don't bother to pay attention to them.

It's just that I think the problem with this book is, this book is relatively old, so the fonts are all used, which are traditional characters, but after writing the three words of Shenshuitan, the content that I started to contact was actually in simplified Chinese.

I deliberately circled this piece with my fingers to let the fat man see it for himself.

The fat man was not a fool, and immediately nodded and replied: "I also found this, you see, there are many mysterious things mentioned behind this!" ”

The legend of this deep pool, it is said that the local villagers have an old man, once passed by here, suddenly in the middle of the night to see the pool of water emitting a five-colored glow, the old man wanted to get closer, but found that all the bones floating in the pool water, the old man was frightened and immediately called the police, and when the police arrived, they found that the pool of water was just some seaweed, and there was nothing the old man said.

Whether the old man said it was true or false, there is no way to verify it now, and later some people heard that after 12 o'clock in the evening, countless bones will be seen in the pool, but this matter has become a legend, and the police cannot believe it, so it is gone.

What's more, there is indeed a lot of seaweed in this pool, and there are often people who mistake these seaweeds for corpses, so no one has been investigating this deep pool for a long time.

But the most critical question is the font on the book, why does a book of traditional characters have to be written, and this part becomes simplified?

The fat man's explanation next to him is: "It may be that this kind of book is added later, sometimes it is not written by one person, although the author's name is just one person, but when compiling this book, it is likely that some miscellaneous notes written by other people are grouped together by the author to become a complete book, this explanation is still okay!" ”

I thought about it for a while, there is indeed this possibility, after all, like an ancient Chinese famous book called Liao Zhai Zhiwei, this book is actually not written by one person Pu Songling traveled south and north, listened to some strange things, and then gathered some folk anecdotes, and finally integrated into a book.

It's definitely not something that Pu Songling can come up with by just patting his head.

There is a similar situation in a geographical magazine like this, as if a team, or other folk miscellaneous stories, through investigation and other means, after learning some ethnic legends, the author put them together to form a book, unified integration.

Therefore, when the book is published, because the book is not written by the same person, there will be some errors in Rouge, for example, the author uses traditional Chinese characters when writing the book, but people who know about this legend like to use simplified Chinese characters when writing the book, so it is inexplicably published.
