The legend of the haunting in the Forbidden City has not stopped until today, and the West Sixth Palace is the residence of the harem concubines of the Qing Dynasty.

The Forbidden City, which we are familiar with, will close at five o'clock every day to clear the guests, and the clearance relies on big wolf dogs, because from this moment on, the yin energy in the Forbidden City will become very strong......

Yes, it's the "yin qi", the eerie, the chilling and strange feeling, even if the sun has not completely set, in this place where a lot of lingering grievances are gathered, if you walk into the dark and empty palace alone, you will deeply experience this.

In fact, what we usually see is only a part of the Forbidden City, and there are still a large number of places in the Forbidden City that are not open to the public, and you have to ask the relevant authorities for the specific reason, of course, even if you get the answer, it may not be satisfactory to you.

In short, the rumors will not stop, but anyone who has worked the night shift in the Forbidden City, or who has spent time in the Forbidden City at night, can tell one or two weird stories that will make you creepy and creepy.

For example, in the middle of the night, the lonely soul in the unjust death palace wanders in a sandwich passage, which is the famous "Yin and Yang Dao" of the West Sixth Palace, where the story is: a female ghost who specializes in choking people's necks (hmm...... It could also be a group).

It is said that in the early years of liberation, there was such a case, a person who spent the night in the Forbidden City mysteriously disappeared, as if the world had evaporated, leaving no trace. The public security department has also set up a special team to investigate this case, and perhaps younger readers do not quite understand why an ordinary case of missing persons would be so laborious, and this is certainly not because the public security organs are particularly keen on the investigation of supernatural incidents, but our party is a resolute materialist, and some rumors and rumors cannot be the reason for setting up a special case. In fact, the handling of this case in this way has a lot to do with the historical background at that time.

In those years, the arrest of spies was the most important thing that the public security department did, and in fact, according to my personal knowledge of that period of history, the proportion of spies at that time may have been far beyond people's imagination...... For example, today you went out to work and said hello to Uncle Zhang, who delivered the newspaper at the door, okay, please note that this uncle is likely to have the rank of second lieutenant. Then you took the milk from the mailbox, rode your bicycle to work, halfway through, you stopped for a while, as usual, bought two steamed buns from Aunt Li, here you have to pay attention again, Aunt Li is a sergeant, the main member of a special operations group, and her upline is Uncle Zhang, who delivers newspapers. Then, when you arrived at the unit, Lao Chen, the porter, greeted you warmly, you should feel honored, he is also a second lieutenant. Finally, you came to the factory and started the day's work, and your team leader came to your back very kindly, patted you on the shoulder, and said to you: "Young man, work hard, but don't work too hard, pay attention to the combination of work and rest." This is amazing, with the rank of captain, under the direct leadership of the Military Command Secret Bureau, and all the spies you have met since you went out in the morning are his downline.

You may find it amusable when I say this, but this is absolutely true, and this history is not too far away from us, and some of these people are not spies, and it is likely that they have been "lurking" for thirty years without receiving a single contact or action. The reason why Zhang San, Li Si, Wang and Ma Zi all have high military ranks is just because a certain party has reached the point where it is in a hurry to go to the doctor when it retreats, political trial, training, these are all saved, just catch a person, and add two bars directly to your shoulders, yes, you are a latent person, waiting for the order of the Taiwan side at any time, and when we return from the counteroffensive, there will definitely be your benefits!

This day is not coming......

In short, there were so many spies in those days that they could not be caught, and once the public security organs discovered some relatively sensitive incidents, they would link the case with those extremists with ill intentions, and of course this was understandable; water conservancy departments, electric power departments, postal departments, grain warehouses, wherever there was any trouble, it was possible that bad elements were plotting against them, and this must not be negligent.

What is the Forbidden City? The important historical and cultural heritage of the Chinese nation, the peaceful liberation of Beiping, in addition to avoiding bloodshed, the more important historical significance is that the Forbidden City has been preserved and has not been damaged by the fierce artillery fire of modern wars. Therefore, the cases that occur here, if not taken seriously, are not going to drop!

may be a bit far away, and then say that the case back then, just don't investigate it, check it...... The results are quite striking, and the report basically goes something like this...... It was a late summer evening, with strong winds and torrential rain, and I was squatting under the eaves with another scout, when suddenly, a flash of lightning and thunder illuminated the night sky as bright as day, and then the shadow of a woman appeared on the wall of an alley, as if she was bending down to get something, but when we got closer, there was nothing, and it did not seem to be the reflection of a branch. That same night, at about two or three o'clock in the morning, we heard the cries of women uninterruptedly, sometimes far away, sometimes from behind us, and sometimes even as if they were crying in our ears......

You say, if you were a leader, how would you feel when you saw this report?

So the case is gone, the report may be torn up, it may be sealed forever, in short, the matter will gradually be forgotten, and only the lingering shadow will remain in people's hearts......

Wang Xu looked at the big white face on the ceiling, surprised, really admired the shape of this ghost, if this sister in today's society, run to the bustling street to stop, it is definitely a line of artists......

The female ghost has no eyebrows on her face, and her mouth keeps spitting out black liquid, she uses her hands to cling to the beam of the house and squirms and crawls strangely, and there is nothing below her knees, but the place where the calf should be connected is now a complete piece of skin, which makes people feel even more terrible, because the injuries suffered by ordinary ghosts before death will appear on the appearance of the unjust soul, such as the headless ghost who is beheaded, and the eyeless ghost who is gouged out is the eyeless ghost, after hanging, it is naturally a long tongue shape. But the person in front of her, the limbs below the knee did not bleed and rot, as if she was already like this when she was alive......

The cat master said: "At this time...... Wandered to this place......"

Wang Xu's eyes never left the female ghost, and he tilted his head slightly towards the cat master: "Hey...... You'll be able to handle this......"

The cat master put the coffin aside, closed the door, and sighed: "The appearance of this female ghost has broken the 'game' here, and now the yin qi is too heavy, before midnight comes, we must put the yin and yang qi here back into balance." ”

"I don't understand what you say......"

"Midnight is the time of the child, in the twelve earthly branches, the yang is the water, so in the time of the day, we occupy the yang, and in this place, there is a woman who lives in the yin, and the number of lives is in the west, her 'feminine' is strong enough to fight against the time of the day, so in the 'geographical advantage', we occupy the yin." As he spoke, the cat master placed the coffin made by Tang Wenwu smoothly, and when the coffin was placed in the middle of the room, a Tai Chi mark slowly emerged in it, and its outline became clearer and clearer.

"The sky belongs to pure yang, the dry three, the earth belongs to pure yin, Kun six breaks, people are born with one of the five elements, no matter which one, it is both yin and yang, although there is a tendency, but pure yin is not long, pure yang is not born." He held his breath and condensed, slowly pouring his spiritual power into the Tai Chi imprint, and Tang Wenwu's invention began to operate further, "Heaven, earth, and people have all reached the realm of balance, and you can get a glimpse of the shortcut against the sky, even if you travel through time and space." ”

The corners of Wang Xu's mouth twitched: "Please speak human ......."

The cat master glanced at the female ghost on the beam again, she didn't seem to want to launch any attack on people, the eunuch was just frightened by her appearance and fainted.

"You go, stay away from here."

The female ghost was very obedient, crawled towards the wall, and then disappeared into the wall.

"Cut...... There are too many coincidences tonight, and now the yin qi belonging to the 'human' vein in this room is too heavy, and the crossing cannot be carried out steadily. When the cat said this, he paused for a moment, then smiled slyly, as if he remembered something, and then said: "Fortunately, there is no way to remedy it......"

Wang Xu is too familiar with that smile, this look, this tone, it is obvious that he is going to suffer again......

"What do you want to do...... Wang Xu is like a woman from a good family who is being insulted on the street, just the lewd eyes of the cat master have made him take a few steps back and stand in the corner of the house.

"Hey...... Your life is a fire, you are already more yang, and you are a virgin......"

Wang Xu looked at the cat master with frightened eyes: "You want to take me as a life sacrifice?" ”

The cat master suddenly regained his lazy expression: "No, you just need to prick your fingers and use your spiritual ability to urge a few drops of blood to drop on this Tai Chi seal." ”

"Damn! Scare me! Wang Xu breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the coffin: "Isn't it just a few drops ......?"

Before he finished speaking, the cat master took out four scalpels and plunged them into his thigh.

Wang Xu's expression is really wonderful, not to mention the pain, at most the muscles on his face are stiff...... But the unwillingness to be fooled, and the remorse of being fooled many times but not learning a lesson, were completely displayed in his bloodshot eyes.

After a while, Wang Xu's blood on the Tai Chi seal was probably already in a basin, and the cat master finally pulled out the scalpel and said very calmly: "It's almost, it should be enough." ”

Wang Xu looked at him and said, "I have thought of a very apt metaphor to describe your ......."

"Oh? What is it? ”

"First of all, you killed a man, and after his funeral, you danced at his grave......"

The cat master is actually very helpful to this kind of sarcasm: "This is just a part of my personality, and it may be a kinder part." ”

Wang Xu smiled dryly: "Okay...... There is a kind of ...... I reckon if you move to Gordon City, Batman will be in trouble. ”

Master Mao's preparations seemed to be almost done, and he said to Wang Xu: "Don't talk nonsense, put your hand on my shoulder, there are enough accidents tonight, and this last step must not fail." ”

The wound on Wang Xu's leg had begun to heal, and he pressed the cat master's shoulder with one hand: "If I guessed correctly, after completing this crossing, you will lose your combat effectiveness for several days to come." ”

Master Mao smiled: "Hmph...... It doesn't matter, according to your logic, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridgehead. ”

Wang Xu also smiled, they played two passers-by in this strange historical episode, leaving no historical records, maybe they are indeed "just a legend", but many people's lives have become different because of them.

Jack the Ripper disappeared in November 1888, and just as he did when he appeared, he disappeared from sight and was quickly forgotten, and a year later, it was a new topic on the European table.

The young Constable Grant Amberley completely withdrew from the Ripper's case, and his choice proved to be the right one, and when the British royal family gradually lost patience and began to condemn the police for their poor behavior, Amberley rose to the top and rose several ranks to become the youngest commissioner of Scotland Yard. It is worth mentioning that shortly after he became the director, he promoted an old police officer who was not very good in the eyes of the outside world as his deputy, this honest guy named Henry Barthes......

In November 1897, two German missionaries, Franz Niez and Richard Heule, were killed by villagers who stormed the church. Although the cause of this incident is unknown, it is a historical necessity, which is the ultimate manifestation of the intensification of contradictions between the great powers and the common people. It was this event that opened the prelude to a famous movement in the future.

A year later, the Boxer Rebellion rose rapidly, and China would usher in a catastrophe - the Gengzi Fist Rebellion. This was a large-scale campaign of mass violence against Western missionaries in China, including missionaries and Chinese Christians, under the slogan of "Helping the Qing Dynasty and Exterminating the Foreigners."

More than 240 foreign missionaries and more than 20,000 Chinese Christians died, and many Chinese who had nothing to do with the church were killed by the Boxers......

Eventually, in August 1900, the Eight-Nation Coalition broke through the city of Beijing, putting an end to a farce in the late Qing government. China entered the twentieth century with the humiliation of the fall of its capital......

Many people have fallen into the long river of history without a single wave.

Pang Er, Lu Quan, Feng Liu, who are these? Who knows...... When they die, they may think, where is that kid now? I haven't seen him in years, maybe he's back to the West? Maybe he was killed by the boxers too? The Godfather...... Is there really anyone who can protect everyone? That maybe, only the God that those old men talk about.

…………

Leaving aside the words for the time being, it is useless to say more in the preface, Wang Xu exhaled with relief, "Farewell...... This unfortunate time......"

Master Mao smiled and said, "Let's go!" Let's go back to the future! ”
