After getting off the car, we feel completely different here, as if suddenly from the modern back to the ancient, the magic of this world is that it retains the cultural characteristics of each era, if we are now a modern civilization with advanced science and technology, then here actually believe in the legend of ghosts and gods, everywhere is full of an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

Stepping on the stone path and looking at the light gray earthen houses, there is a kind of isolation and tranquility here, just like the ink paintings of the ancients.

The clothes of the people here also reveal a rustic atmosphere of the villagers on the mountain, although it is a very rough fabric but it is more tasteful, a natural taste, the villagers here are warm and friendly, after many inquiries, we know that the man called Emperor Wu lives in a very popular hotel, when I first knew the name of this person, I was surprised, this name sounds very domineering, how to say it, at a glance at this name, I feel that it must be a successful person at the top of the pyramid, But I'm so ordinary.,If you catch it on the street, there will be a lot of invisible people with an extremely low sense of existence.。

"It's strange, why are so many people looking at us along the way, it feels so awkward!" Ivanov asked, looking at the crowd that had been staring straight at our backs as if they were watching some rare animal.

"Maybe it's because this ancient town is relatively closed, and few outsiders come in." As soon as I finished speaking, Ivanov looked incredulous and retorted loudly: "Now that the exchange of information is so developed, how can there be any occlusion." ”

Maybe it's because the style of writing here is too simple and traditional, they will be so opposed to the influx of foreign culture, they want to retain their most primitive taste, maybe without these foreign cultures to enter, they can live very happy, very satisfied, don't need to think about those complicated things in the big city, they live a very simple life, this may also be a kind of happiness, I gradually began to envy this kind of free life.

The hotel I stayed in looked like a small yard, but this yard looked very deep, the color of the whole yard was gray tones, the aroma of the earth, colorful flowers and green plants, it was really difficult to buy such peace and tranquility.

"You're from far away, you don't feel like you're from this town." The owner of the hotel is a very talkative person, not very old, in his 40s, although it feels a little wooden, and it doesn't look very smart, but he has a good heart and is also very enthusiastic, and he talked to us a lot about this ancient town, when I mentioned that it was called Emperor Wu, his face was a little embarrassed, he looked at us carefully, held his chin with both hands and thought for a long time before asking: "What is the relationship between you and that man?" ”

"I'm a friend of his, he hasn't come to work before, and suddenly he disappeared inexplicably, and we were all very worried about him, and I heard that he was here." I'm not good at lying, so I'm still a little nervous when I speak, and I even speak a little faster.

"Oh, you're that man's friend, if that's the case, I do have something I want to tell you, and honestly, that friend of yours is a little weird." The boss glanced at us, then looked around, and made sure that there was no one around, and then suddenly lowered his voice and said, "You guys come with us to the house, and I'll tell you about it slowly." ”

We followed the boss to the house, the furniture in this room is also very simple, although it is such a simple room but not annoying, but I like it very much, I sit on a rattan chair drinking fragrant hot tea, watching the boss sit on the rattan chair opposite us, with a wooden pipe in his mouth, as if he is still hesitating about something.

"You're worried about what you're going to talk about, aren't you?" Chen Bo was the first to break the silence and asked.

"I want to ask if you know the legends here?" I didn't expect that the boss would ask us such a question, legend, is there any legend in this ancient town? Does that legend also have anything to do with Emperor Wu's disappearance? Or did he come here for this legend?

"I don't know." I subconsciously shook my head.

"This is a very magical legend, it is said that in a certain time and a certain place can see the dead relatives, all the dead people have to walk their previous life path, and at that time and that place there will be a crossroads, this intersection determines the future direction of each dead soul, whether to stay in this world, or choose to enter another world, in order to send away the souls of their loved ones, in order to know where they are in the next life, in order to be able to see them for the last time, All people will wait and say goodbye at that time, although this is a very old story, and young people nowadays have long since disbelieved it, but there are still some old people who know this legend very well. ”

The words spoken by the boss are really like a legend, a story that may be poignant or terrifying, why did Emperor Wu go to that place, does he have someone he wants to meet?

"Boss, do you know where that place is?" After I finished speaking, the boss shook his head and said, "Your friends have also asked me this question, but I don't really know much about this legend, and I don't even know if it's true. ”

At noon we had a light meal here, the food here is really good, I feel that it is very delicious without adding any special seasonings, this pure natural green food itself is very good, too many seasonings will destroy their own taste.

"Chen Bo, what do you think of today's events, why do you think Emperor Wu is looking for that myth and legend?" I was lying on the wooden bed, looking at Chen Bo who was lying next to me, casually flipping through a book, and asked.

"I don't know a lot about Emperor Wu, everything is based on the analysis of the information found by Noy, Emperor Wu should give me the feeling that he should be the kind of person with an extremely low sense of existence, he didn't deliberately get close to anyone, he tried to get close to the people around him, and he didn't annoy others, and he always maintained a kind of relationship with the people around him." In this way, this person called Emperor Wu has no other contact with the people around him except for a simple colleague relationship.

"How's his family doing?"

"Ordinary middle-class families, it seems that I remember that he was divorced once." From Chen Bo's description, it seems that his life is not very happy, and the reason for the divorce seems to be because Emperor Wu had an affair, and the object of the affair is a very ordinary college student, which is what we usually call the kind of support, lover relationship.

"How is his wife doing, and what about the college student?" I felt that I was asking a little too privately, but I always felt that these things might have something to do with the fact that he had come all the way here to find the myth of the ancient town.

"His wife, I heard that she seems to have died, it seems to be recently." After Chen Bo finished speaking, my eyes immediately lit up, is this the reason? Do you miss your wife too much to come here to find her soul? Since his wife is so important to him, why did he choose to betray in the first place, it's really strange, this story sounds a little too depressing, Chen Bo looked at me frowning, smoothed my wrinkles with his fingers and said: "Don't think so much, how about we go to Ivanov to play cards for a while, and we will have to look for clues everywhere in a while, just relax now, don't let yourself be too nervous." ”

"He also brought poker, and he really treated this mission as a tour." Ivanov couldn't help but feel too nervous, and Chen Bo laughed when he heard me say this.
