Chapter 535: Abnormal Changes in the Village (3)
This small house, which is not big, has not changed much after the old Taoist and the young man moved in.
The house that has not been inhabited for a long time is inhabited, and the popularity needs a period of time to raise, as long as the old house is left to dry, and then the person lives in it and lives in him for a period of time, it will be completely able to restore the popularity.
For example, the house where this old Taoist lived, although it was abandoned for a while, but the old man and the young man lived here for three years, and it stands to reason that it should have regained its popularity.
What's more, Xu Guodong has come here more than once to place the old Taoist.
If you want to ask for knowledge, you must have a good attitude, although it is said to be communication, but without a good attitude, you will put yourself higher than others, then it is not the attitude of learning things.
Modest and humble, Xu Guodong does not lack these qualities.
When he came to this small courtyard in the past, Xu Guodong didn't feel anything, but he felt that the atmosphere of this small courtyard was slightly different, and the old Taoist's stay seemed to add an indifferent taste to this small courtyard.
But this time, I couldn't see the old Taoist, and I didn't see the young man who usually sat in the courtyard every time he came here, not knowing what to do.
As soon as Xu Guodong entered the door, he had a very strange feeling in his heart, this feeling could not find the source, but it became stronger and stronger.
As he walked through the courtyard to the door of the house, he reached out to push the door open, but there seemed to be a voice in his heart that kept stopping him.
He came here to place the old Taoist, not once or twice, and not every time the old Taoist would happen to be in the courtyard, or come out to greet him, so entering the door directly is a default behavior, or the old Taoist once explained.
said that when he Xu Guodong came back in the future, he would go directly into the house, he was old and old, and his ears may sometimes be difficult.
couldn't open the door to Xu Guodong in time, the old Taoist seemed very casual about this, and Xu Guodong also followed the old Taoist's statement and always did this.
But this time, when he walked into the room, he had a different feeling.
The door was pushed open, and the creaking sound of the door shaft echoed in my ears, as if it was much louder than usual, and there were echoes, and the surroundings felt very empty.
This situation generally occurs in a new house or when moving, when there is no one living in the house, there are fewer cluttered things, and the sound will echo in the room, so that people can feel that the voice will be much louder.
"What's going on?"
Xu Guodong frowned, obviously he was a little uncomfortable with this situation, and the bad premonition in his heart was gradually increasing.
It's like, this house has been vacant for a long time...
Obviously, the old Taoist lives here!
Xu Guodong's surprise did not last long, and a large piece of dust fell from the roof of the shed, and the dust fell in a puff, which suddenly made the door of the house smoky.
"Ahem, cough, cough"
Xu Guodong waved his hand to fan away the smoke in front of him, coughing violently, he really didn't expect to encounter such a thing.
"Dao Chief? Ahem"
He shouted, but no one answered, took a few steps back, and finally waited for the smoke and dust at the door to dissipate, but Xu Guodong felt that this place was becoming more and more wrong.
The surroundings seemed to become cold, and wisps of wind blew out of the room, which made Xu Guodong a little surprised.
You know, it's cloudy, dreary and depressing, although the black clouds cover the sky, but there is no wind, so why is there a wind blowing out of this room?
There was a little fear and worry in his heart, Xu Guodong was worried that something would happen to the old Taoist, so he didn't care about anything else, and walked in directly.
As soon as he stopped and entered, he entered this house that he had been here countless times again, Xu Guodong's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at everything in front of him incredulously, this house, this room, is it really the house where the old Taoist lived at the beginning?
For a moment, Xu Guodong suspected that he was in the wrong place.
Not because of anything else, but because this room looks completely different from before, and this difference is not the layout of the house or any other place, but because the walls of this room, the floor, are full of dust.
The dust was not ordinarily thick, but very thick, as if it hadn't been inhabited for years.
On the floor of this room, although there is a lot of dust on the fire kang, you can see that there are still a lot of footprints here, and you can even see that there are many traces left by people on the fire kang, as if someone is sitting there.
On top of the kang was a small square table, on which were placed a lot of things, a bowl full of rice, and something similar to a spirit tablet.
There were a few burns of incense that had burned out in the bowl, and the incense ash accumulated a thick layer on the top of the bowl, which was enshrined in front of the tablet.
Then he quickly moved his attention to other places, not to mention, in this gloomy weather, to come to such a room, that feeling is like walking in the wilderness in the middle of the night, and finally found a forest hut, and when he entered, he found that this hut was inhabited by people and ghosts.
Xu Guodong doesn't believe in this kind of myth and ghost, the theory of gods and ghosts has long been defeated by science, and in that era, it was an advocate to defeat all bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods, Xu Guodong can't believe it, and he doesn't dare to believe it, the most important thing is that he has never seen it with his own eyes, how can he believe it?
When his gaze swept over the situation in the room, he noticed that the traces in this house were very strange, although many footprints and traces could be found on the dust in the room, but these footprints were a little strange.
What a strange method?
On the edge of this ondol, there are indeed traces left by someone, and judging from the marks in the dust, it should be someone who once sat on this ondol.
It's just that this trace only stays on one side, that is, there are traces on the side of the square table near the door, while on the other side, there is only heavy dust, and there are no footprints left by anyone at all.
And the footprints on the ground are also very strange, looking at the size, it seems to be the footprints left by a person, this person walked in from the door, then walked to the edge of the kang and sat down, and finally walked out of the room.
Other than that, there is not a trace left in the rest of the room.
"Who left this behind?"
Xu Guodong hadn't reacted to the changes in the house yet, and he hadn't figured out why the house had suddenly become like this, and new doubts appeared in his mind.
Seeing these traces, Xu Guodong's first thought was that he was not the only one in this old Taoist's house, because many footprints were still relatively fresh, as if they had not been left for a long time.
Although he has undergone a lot of training in Linjia Village, he is a teacher after all, and his physical fitness is not comparable to other people in this village, and more importantly, he does not know how to fight.
"Do you want to get out of here first?"
Xu Guodong looked along the footprints and found that the overlapping same footprints, after entering the room, disappeared when he reached the edge of the kang, and then turned his head from the edge of the kang and walked towards the door, without going to other rooms or going to other places, but left the house directly.
"Whew, has that person already left?"
This discovery made Xu Guodong feel a lot more at ease, the yard is not big, he had already seen it when he came in, and there are not many places to hide people in such a small courtyard, so that person should have left, but what is going on?
"Did I really go to the wrong house? It shouldn't be! ”
Xu Guodong was full of doubts, this old Taoist's house is in a relatively remote location, not to mention that there are not many families around here, and it is very convenient to identify.
Let's just say that Xu Guodong has come here dozens or hundreds of times in the past three years, how could he go to the wrong door?
So what's going on?
