When I returned to the old house, my whole person seemed to be hovering on the verge of collapse, and the things that had been suppressed in my heart all these years seemed to be about to burst out, and I had to bite the last straw to stabilize myself.

The winter sun was a little pale, piercing through the mountain moisture and falling on my shoulders and forehead, making my consciousness more and more confused.

I sat on the stone pier, looking at the courtyard door that could not be closed, and my mind kept thinking about my childhood, I tried to remember my father's face, and I tried to remember my mother's appearance, but only now did I realize that eleven years later, they had become so blurred.

Now all they left me with was the thoughts that had lasted for eleven years, and when the thoughts turned into rivers, I could only see the waves surging on the surface of the river, but I could no longer see what was hidden under the water.

It was from that moment that I realized that I was so afraid of forgetting, as if I had forgotten it, it meant that I had lost.

Perhaps to divert my attention, I took out my phone and sent Wu Lin a text message, the content of which was only a short comma.

After a long time, Wu Lin replied: "I haven't changed my mobile phone number for the time being." ”

I put my phone against my forehead and used it to iron out the wrinkles on my eyebrows, and it took a long time to reply, "Let's go to Guangdong." ”

"I don't have time lately, what are you doing in Guangdong."

"There is a psychic medium in Guangzhou, and I heard that she has dreamed of the Sun Tomb recently."

This time, Wu Lin replied very quickly, and the content was extremely concise: "Early tomorrow morning, I will wait for you at the entrance of the expressway." ”

"Well, see you or leave."

The screen of my phone dimmed, and I let out a long breath and continued to look at the door of the house.

Li Huaishan came back that night, but Du Kang did not come back with him.

Listening to Li Huaishan, Du Kang had already gone to Bohai Bay first, saying that he was going to see the second master, and as for Song Tiefu and Bi Kun, the two talismans, they had also been handed over to the organization, I don't know how the organization would deal with the eight heroes of the mound, and this kind of thing is indeed not something that people of my level should consider.

Li Huaishan asked me when I would return to Bohai Bay, and I told him that after leaving Guizhou, we would go to Guangzhou, and told him that Wu Lin would also go with him this time.

Probably seeing that I was not in a good mood, I just said "oh" and didn't ask anything more.

Why did Du Kang go back to Bohai Bay before me? I think he probably didn't want to face me at such a time, he must have known early on that the person who corrected Bi Kun was my father, but he never made it clear.

It was a long night for me, and the nightmare was too chaotic to get closer, so I just opened my eyes and looked at the night sky in the cold winter, where at first the clouds obscured the moon, and a few remnant stars could be faintly seen in the sky.

It wasn't until the clouds slowly drifted out of their original positions that the light of the crescent moon began to spread across the night sky, and several remnant stars were eventually hidden by the light.

On January 6, 2009, which happened to be the 11th day of the lunar calendar, the moon should have been closer to the shape of the disk, but what I saw today was a narrow crescent moon.

It's just that due to my confusion, I didn't realize the problem at first.

But the sight has always been on the moon, and after a long time, I gradually noticed some abnormalities, the moon in the sky, as if blocked by a round black shadow, that shadow ...... It looked familiar, like the bottom of a bottle completely covered in black water, and it seemed to be so close to me, hanging within my reach.

Almost subconsciously, I stretched out my hand and waved my wrist towards the half-air, and sure enough, I came across a puddle of liquid suspended in the air, but the touch was very weak and extremely unreal.

When I touched it like this, the black shadow seemed to be disturbed and disappeared out of thin air.

I sat up from my sleeping bag with a "whew" and stared at the moonlight in the night sky for a long time, then I opened my sleeping bag, showed only my hands, took my backpack, and turned out the bottle for black water.

The black liquid in the bottle was still there, and I tried to shake the mouth of the bottle, and the liquid stuck to the inside of the bottle like sticky ink, and then slowly slid off.

Li Huaishan was woken up by the noise I made, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and asked me what I was doing.

I was not in the mood to explain anything to him, so I immediately got out of my sleeping bag and rushed into the secret passage below the coal pool like a madman.

After entering the secret room, I immediately came to the pool, took a flashlight and shone it, and found that the pool was empty, and the black water in it was gone.

I don't know where the black water has gone, and I don't know if the black shadow that appeared in front of me just now is real or an illusory illusion.

I just felt fear, I have been in the industry for two years, and I have seen all kinds of evil corpses and evil spirits, but the black shadow that appeared in the air just now brought me unprecedented fear. I felt like my heart was being pinched by some force, and it tightened again and again.

Li Huaishan also followed up in the secret room, he took out a flashlight and shone it on my back, and tried to call me: "What if you are not?" ”

I turned around, covered the light from behind with my hand, and glanced at Li Huaishan.

Li Huaishan seemed to be frightened by the expression on my face, and couldn't help but take a step back, and after a short while, he asked me tremblingly, "What's wrong with you?" ”

There was no mirror, and I didn't know what my expression was at that time, but I felt that every muscle on my whole face was stiff, and the eyelids that had been hanging down on a daily basis were completely open uncontrollably.

In the face of Li Huaishan's question, I remained silent, and at that time, the base of my tongue was also stiff, and I couldn't speak at all.

Just when I was staring at Li Huaishan motionlessly, Li Huaishan didn't know whether to walk over or continue to retreat, the mobile phone pattern in his pocket vibrate.

I immediately took out my mobile phone, and it was a text message from Wu Lin: "I'm going to find you, waiting for me!" ”

The last punctuation point is an exclamation mark, which I will never remember, people like Wu Lin rarely show their tone in text messages.

I just stared at the shiny phone screen and didn't reply.

Soon, Wu Lin sent another message: "You have touched those things, I can feel them." Don't leave no matter what happens, wait for me! ”

A second later, a third message was sent: "Trust me! ”

Wu Lin is a cold person, but when I saw these messages, I seemed to feel a little warmth, and even the stiffness on my face slowly melted in this warmth.

Li Huaishan cautiously walked up to me, he shone my face with the afterglow of the flashlight, and stretched out a hand and patted me on the shoulder.

In the dark secret room, the light of the flashlight became extremely dazzling, and I turned off my flashlight and turned sideways at the same time, trying to avoid the white light coming from Li Huaishan's hand.

Li Huaishan slowly moved the beam of the flashlight to the ground and asked me, "If you are not, what is wrong with you?" ”

His tone became urgent.

I took a deep breath before I responded, "I don't know, let's get out." ”

With that, I quickly stepped away and walked outside, disgusted by the bright light shining from the flashlight, and even more disgusted by the darkness in the chamber, and now I would never want to stay here for a minute longer.

When I returned to the house, I saw the black sleeping bag, and I remembered the black shadow I had just seen, so I deliberately kept a distance from the sleeping bag, came to the stone pier, took a deep breath, and sat down with some difficulty.

At the moment, this old mansion looks like it is still the way it was when I came, but when I look around, I always feel that something is wrong, and I can't tell what kind of feeling it is, I just feel that the things presented in front of me at this time seem to be fake, except for Li Huaishan who is standing next to me.

The yang energy and anger that emanates from him can give me a little psychological comfort.

Finally, I looked at the copper basin in the corner, the copper-yellow basin looked very gray in the moonlight, but the same gray hue made me feel a little stable.

Li Huaishan asked me softly, "Are you cold?" ”

When he asked, I realized that I was clasping my arms tightly, and my whole body was curled up on the stone pier.

I shook my head and didn't say anything.

Li Huaishan began to be impatient again: ", what the hell are you?" ”

"I don't know." I still shook my head: "Ergou, I don't want to talk now." ”

I didn't lie to him, I really don't want to talk now, as if as soon as I speak, the anger in my body will spurt out of my throat, and it will never recover.

The old house in the old mansion made me feel very uneasy, and to be honest, I wanted to leave this place quickly, but the three text messages that Wu Lin had just sent were like slides, lingering in my mind repeatedly.

Li Huaishan couldn't suppress the worry in his heart, and after a short while, he asked me cautiously: "Why don't I bring the sleeping bag and put it on for you?" ”

I waved my hand and gave Li Huaishan a complaining look, when he was standing behind me, when I turned around and glanced at it, I found that there were three more figures behind Li Huaishan.

Those three shadows looked like three stiff statues from a distance, and I couldn't see their faces clearly, because they were facing away from Li Huaishan.

Li Huaishan was completely unaware of their existence, so I quickly stood up and pulled Li Huaishan to my side, and at the same time leaned out my left hand and spread the yang line.

"Who?" I grabbed Li Huaishan and yelled at the other side.

The other party did not respond, still standing straight with his back to us, motionless. At this time, the direction they were facing was the coal pond not far away.

Li Huaishan also glanced at the coal pond and asked me uneasily: "Where is there anyone, if not, don't scare me!" ”

I squeezed his wrist hard and motioned for him not to speak.
