I've always believed in fate, that many things have a reason, and that there will be seemingly additional encounters that will pull us along a given trajectory.

This sentence sounds complicated, but it is actually very simple to understand.

Take Kuroko's experience as an example, that is, he entered this ancient mansion today, and he didn't sleep all night yesterday, in fact, according to the trajectory.

Because his end, in that nightmare the day before yesterday, had already been revealed.

All the secrets here are hidden in the coffin of the ancient tomb.

Until then, it is likely that we will not be able to avoid going through all the nightmares he has experienced.

I asked Kuroko, "Where is the next nightmare, in a gazebo?" ”

Kuroko nodded, his expression a little apprehensive, as if he didn't understand why I was asking.

I pointed to the pavilion in the middle of the lake and asked, "Is that there?" ”

After looking at it carefully for a while, Kuroko shook his head and said, "No." ”

I pursed my lips and nodded, not asking anything more.

Leng Yue had been waiting for a while, and although her speed slowed down, she didn't stop completely.

I glanced at Kuroko, quickly caught up with Leng Yue, stepped on the somewhat awkward pebbles, and continued to walk forward with anxiety.

After a short time, we passed through an arch made of a rockery and left the Spring Garden.

At this time, what appeared in front of us was a stone about the size of the Spring Garden Stone, with the word "Summer Garden" engraved on it, and it fell in the grass next to it.

The view of the Summer Garden was completely different from that of the Spring Garden, except for the road in front of us, which was flanked by shallow pools with turquoise lotus leaves floating on them.

It's a pity that the season is not right, otherwise there will inevitably be a lotus flower that reflects the sun and is red.

Kuroko was behind me, trembling and holding out a hand, pointing ahead, and saying, "It's that gazebo." ”

I looked ahead and saw that in front of our path, there was a gazebo, octagonal. On the two pillars facing us, there are couplets, on which are carved what is indiscernible to see.

Leng Yue looked back at me suspiciously and asked, "What?" ”

I briefly talked about Kuroko's experience and my analysis, and Leng Yue was thoughtful after hearing it, and I didn't know what she was thinking.

After a while, Leng Yue waved her hand and said, "Let's go." ”

With that, he began to walk slowly, paying attention to the lotus leaves and ponds on the left and right from time to time.

We hadn't been walking long before I suddenly heard the sound of something breaking through the water, and immediately reminded me: "Be careful, something is out!" ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw a palm-sized black shadow break through the lotus leaf and rush towards Leng Yue, who was standing at the front.

Leng Yue was in danger, waved the iron chopsticks in his hand, slapped all those black shadows back into the pond, and grabbed a black shadow and slammed it to the ground.

"Smack, smack, smack......"

The black shadow was writhing and jumping on the ground, restless, but unable to make a sound.

I leaned up on my face, illuminated it with a flashlight, and saw the true face of the black shadow, and I was dumbfounded.

It turned out to be a piranha, with a wide open mouth full of fangs, bright and cold, very frightening.

Just imagine, being bitten by such a thing must not be much better.

Leng Yue looked down at the piranha, and after a while, raised her foot and kicked it into the air.

"Poof!"

The piranha draws a parabola in the air and falls back into the pond.

Because these piranhas have water on their bodies, after Leng Yue blocked with chopsticks, the cinnabar on the chopsticks was washed away.

"Into the gazebo!"

Leng Yue said, hurriedly stepping towards the gazebo in front of her.

I was about to follow, but I found that Kuroko was trembling and didn't dare to follow.

"You're either going to come with us, or you're going to feed the fish here."

After listening to me, Heizi trembled all over, and said hurriedly: "Fifth brother, I'll go with you, don't throw me down." ”

I nodded vigorously and illuminated the path with my flashlight, chasing the cold moon as fast as I could.

On either side of us, the sound of breaking water and falling water is incessant, and it is the piranha that is churning and jumping, showing its steel teeth with us as its goal.

The good thing is that we run fast enough, alert enough and agile enough.

Finally, we crossed the pebble road at our feet without any danger and came to the front of the pavilion.

In front of the pavilion is a large open space flanked by delicate flowers and trees.

The pillars on either side of the gazebo are hung with couplets, but the contents are illegible, as the words on them have been scratched out by deep scratches.

I raised my flashlight and looked up, and I saw a sign hanging directly above the entrance of the pavilion with the word "silence" engraved on it.

However, this word "silence" is a bald treasure cover, and there is obviously a dot missing on it.

Kuroko's voice trembled slightly, and he said, "Silent Summer Pavilion." ”

I didn't care about the name of the pavilion, but I was a little curious why there were fewer words.

After the Ming Dynasty, many celebrities liked to use typos to engrave inscriptions in order to express more ideas.

If there is less silence, it should mean that it is almost silent.

And what is this?

If you throw away the many strangeness of this ancient mansion and only look at it from a normal perspective, the difference should be the sound of insects, the sound of the wind, and the sound of rain......

But now I really can't say.

Leng Yue did not rush into the Silent Summer Pavilion, but put on a defensive posture with iron chopsticks horizontally, and asked us without looking back: "Tell me?" ”

Kuroko looked dazed, not understanding the meaning of Leng Yue's words.

I hurriedly explained, "He wanted you to tell you about that nightmare. ”

Kuroko closed his eyes and was silent for a while, took a deep breath, stomped his foot hard, opened his eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "I dreamed that I walked into the pavilion, and then saw floating human faces in all directions, so scared that I couldn't move my legs even in my dream. Then suddenly a ribbon fell, wrapped around my neck, and strangled me to death inside. ”

"Okay."

Leng Yue said, cautiously moving forward, raising her legs and stepping into the Silent Summer Pavilion.

I was worried about Leng Yue, so I hurriedly followed in with a plastic bottle filled with cinnabar.

"Don't ...... Never mind. ”

Leng Yue seemed to want to stop me from entering the pavilion, but when he saw that I had already entered the pavilion, he didn't say anything more.

Knowing that we were going to be in danger here, I said to Kuroko, who was about to enter the pavilion, "You wait for us outside first." ”

Kuroko was originally very afraid of entering the Silent Summer Pavilion, and after listening to my words, he nodded vigorously as if he was about to be amnesty, and stayed outside the pavilion, observing me and Leng Yue very nervously.

I looked up and saw that the pavilion was built with layers of skeletons, each wooden board was carved with lotus patterns, and at the top of the pavilion, there was a huge wooden lotus bone sticking out upside down, like a bud waiting to be released.

The pavilion is not big, and it only takes three or two steps to walk through.

Leng Yue looked left and right vigilantly and continued to move forward.

Just as he was about to pass through the Silent Summer Pavilion, something unexpected happened.
