Recently, a series of strange things have happened in the middle of Jinghuayuan, and everyone is panicked and rumors are spreading.

Lan Xin felt like she had been attacked by a ghost at night, her eyes were glazed, and she actually wore her belly pocket out of her parade; The top of the Shen family's maid was mysteriously lost, and it was also designated as red; When the man of the Wang family woke up, the cloth shoes under the bed were replaced with three-inch embroidered shoes.

In fact, it's not just recently, I have heard Su Wei tell strange things before:

In the year I was born, it was the year of the establishment of Banjinghuain.

That year, Su Wei said that I had cried many times for unknown reasons, and no matter how I coaxed it, I later invited the fortune teller to the goddess, and the fortune teller woman came to pinch her fingers, saying that the yard was heavy in yin and heavy, and the child's yang energy could not be suppressed.

The goddess set up a temporary altar in front of the gate of the courtyard, and placed a plate of rice, a bowl of runic water, and three white candles in front of it. She quickly wrote down the ghost talisman in red water, and when it burned to ashes, she took the bowl of talisman water and drank it in a big gulp, sprayed it vigorously on the candle fire, and made a few times to the gate of the courtyard in style.

I have to say that these "magic tricks" have stopped crying, and I slept peacefully at night, saying that I don't believe in evil, and I can't, saying that I believe it, this invisible thing always makes people feel flustered.

This matter spread back and forth, and the prestige of the goddess was also boosted, and a large number of people "visited" the goddess every day.

We were going to invite the goddess to do it again, but we didn't expect that she would mysteriously disappear that year, and her residence would have been razed to the ground, and we still heard about it from the nearby villagers.

Around the beginning of the Republic of China, Ziyang had a land king's mansion, and there was a statue of the earth king in that house, and people could come to burn incense and worship when they prayed. Su Wei once described to me:

Looking up at the top of Nafu, the fiery golden dragon was hovering in the sky, the golden dragon was in thousands of postures, and its posture was vigorous, as if it was about to break through the top of the cloud and gallop above the universe. When you step through the gate, you will meet the king of the earth in the highest form of "three kneels and seven knocks", so that you can wash away your customs and feel the highest sincerity. There is a huge incense tripod in the house, people have to climb the ladder, insert three incense sticks into it, the strong incense fire, so that people can't open their eyes. Even so, a large number of people come to worship every day, offering all kinds of offerings, such as roast pigs, fruits, ingots, etc., and the more valuable the things people bring, the more spiritual the wishes will be. People must dress plainly, not wear gold and silver jewelry, saying that they can't touch the divine light of the king of the earth, and more importantly, women can't step into this gate when they come to menstruation, otherwise they will have no children in their lives. People folded their hands and devotion to their hearts, with a string of jade beads hanging from their hands, read their prayers several times. There is a monk standing next to the statue of the king of the earth, holding a bowl of cinnabar in his hand, and the person who kneels down to worship the idol must come to the monk and put a little cinnabar on his forehead.

Such a process is cumbersome and complicated, but it does not affect people's wishes for a better life in the future.

However, the person who built the Diwang Mansion died early, and there were no heirs, and the repair of the palace was no longer in charge, and gradually, it was dusty, and a flood broke the house, and since then, the Diwang Mansion has been razed to the ground.

The gold-studded statue of the god fell somewhere, some people say it was hidden, some people say it was buried in the earth, and there are outrageous claims that it was taken by God.

Some people believe in that saying, digging mud into that piece of land every day, digging for more than a few years and not seeing the bottom, people naturally give up, even so, more people still believe that the idol is buried deep in that piece of land, once this strange thing happens, people think that it is the idol of the king of the earth is doing evil, saying that the idol is powerful, this courtyard calms his divine light, makes it crazy.

When the Banjinghua Temple was built on this land, the gentleman who looked at feng shui did not talk about it, and he also called this land the "Feng Shui Treasure Land" of Ziyang, and later heard about this legend, and remembered the strange things that happened, which always made people panic.

"Miss, look, Lan Xin came out wearing a belly pocket again." The Seven Monarchs hid behind me and whispered.

In order to prove whether this "evil gate" was a ghost, when everyone fell asleep, Ah Mao Chang and Qi Jun and I hid under the tree.

At this time, Lan Xin's eyes were stagnant, she stretched out her hands, and walked out slowly, like waiting for people, just as she would wrap her belly pocket outside, or a red embroidered belly pocket, we didn't dare to speak, covering our mouths and holding our breath.

"She looked like she was being dragged along." Mao pointed at her.

"Be quiet." I stretched out my fingers and made a gesture not to speak.

"yes, but we didn't see the rope, can't it really be so evil?" Qijun's voice trembled.

"No, you see she turned." I say.

We looked up together in the direction Lan Xin was walking.

"Let's go, let's follow." I continued.

Ah Mao walked on tiptoe, compared to his usual upright character, he couldn't believe that he would do such a sneaky thing.

We followed closely behind Lan Xin.

"Do you say, can she hear us?" Qijun asked.

"I don't think so, you see she doesn't even know what she's doing, she's completely out of her body's control." Ah Mao replied.

At this time, Lan Xin walked into a small black house behind the courtyard, and then saw a person answering outside the door of the small black house, and Lan Xin entered.

"So someone really made a mistake!" Qijun said loudly.

At this time, the man looked over to this side, and I quickly covered Qijun's mouth.

"Who?" The man asked, and he poked his head around.

We quickly hid behind the rockery.

"Why is this little dark house lit up by daylight and no one living in it, but it is brightly lit at night?" I thought.

"People often say that Banjinghuain will eat people, is this it?" Ah Mao Chang suddenly looked flustered.

We've heard this rumor, but no one takes it seriously. Then again, if an uninvited guest tries to sneak in, he will not dare to come back if he is taught a lesson, and it is really cruel to deal with it as people say.

"I've heard that they say it's impossible to sneak into the Semi-Jinghua Courtyard, unless he is an animal, it is impossible to go out again, and the people who are locked up don't know where they went, do you know that?" Qijun asked.

"I ...... How is it possible to know? Although the scope of my management is quite large, how can the lord let us know about such hidden things. After Ah Mao finished speaking, he looked to the other side.

"Impossible, in addition to pick-up and drop-off, aren't you also responsible for gate management? Who came in, how could you not know. Qijun continued to ask.

"Qijun, don't ask, we have such a good relationship, I will definitely tell Miss Xining what I know first, how can I do something to hide, besides, since I sneaked in, how could I come in openly through the gate? It's sure to be a trick like digging a hole in the ground or drilling into a wall. Ah Mao analyzed it seriously.

Qijun thought about it and felt that it made sense, and stopped asking. Although I have a lot of truth in what the Seven Monarchs said, I don't doubt Ah Maochang.

"What the hell are they doing? Who is that man? Kind of familiar. I asked.

Then another man came out of the little black room, and he held a plate of water in his hand, which seemed to be still a little hot, and I saw him bend down and lay the wooden plate flat on the ground, and slowly tilt the wooden plate, so that the water flowed down the small slope.

He was so careful not to make a sound even when he poured water, what were they hiding? Do you want to tell your mother about this? No, don't do it until you find out the truth of the matter.

"This man is so familiar, I want to think about it." Ah Mao said.

"Hurry up." Qijun continued.

"I remember, this seems to be the doorman of the Wang family." Ah Mao said.

"What does it seem, is it true?" Qijun turned his head to stare at Ah Mao Chang.

"It's true! I had a relationship with him, and I once asked him if he borrowed something. Ah Mao said.

"What is it?" I asked.

"It's books, once I saw him holding a lot of books, he walked fast, the books were crooked, I went to help him, I saw a few books that were very interesting, he immediately agreed to borrow me." Ah Mao said.

"Is it the Wang family? Could this little black house belong to the Wang family? Nalan ...... in his heart, "I continued.

"Miss, look, Lan Xin is out." Qijun pointed to the small black house.

At this time, Lan Xin did back to what she had just done, stretched out her hands, and walked slowly to her room, her clothes were still a little untidy, and her belly pocket was gone!

"Would you like to call her over and ask her?" Qijun asked.

"Definitely not, the book I read a few days ago recorded sleepwalking, and I think Lan Xin seems to have sleepwalking." Ah Mao said.

I scratched my head and asked, "What is sleepwalking?" How can a dream be real? ”

"Miss, you don't understand, sleepwalking is to make some moves inexplicably when she is asleep, and the next day she doesn't know anything, and during her sleepwalking, we can't wake her up, otherwise we will either die or go crazy." Ah Changmao gestured to the movements that sleepwalkers would make.

"I'll test her tomorrow." I looked at Lan Xin and whispered.

The next day, I saw Lan Xin making pastries in the kitchen, she looked like no one else, did she really not remember what happened yesterday?

"Lan Xin."

"Hello Miss Xining, is there anything wrong?"

"Did you sleep well last night?" I asked.

Lan Xin hesitated for a moment, feeling that this was a bit unexpected.

"It's fine, but I woke up halfway through." Lan Xin put down the dough and said to me.

"Awake?" I looked at her in amazement.

"yes, there have been a lot of mosquitoes lately, and I feel like my neck is itching." With that, she began to rub her elbows against the area of her neck.

"What about other than that?" I continued to ask.

"What else?" Lan Xin looked surprised.

"It's fine." Then Lan Xin continued to work.

It turned out that she really didn't know about what happened last night.

But it's not in vain, after all, knowing that this ghost legend is done by people, it's just Lan Xin's sleeplobbying, and we have to continue to explore. What about losing your belly pocket and being replaced with three-inch embroidered shoes?

It seems that there are "ghosts" in the small dark room.
