Chapter 24: Bao Zheng's Adventure

The following is Shu Yao's translation of Bao Zheng's words. For the sake of convenience, it is better to narrate in the first person of Bao Zheng. Shu Yao thought about it in his mind, and was sure that he had sorted out the whole thing clearly, so he said: "Let's start, I will tell you the process in the middle carefully, and at the same time, I will also carefully sort it out myself." Baozi nodded, and Shu Yao began to speak.

"It's a strange place, they say it's weird, but I don't believe it, I think there must be some people there doing something unseemly, but I'm not afraid, or the journey won't be very interesting." There is still a long time before entering Beijing, and I think it should be too late to come.

I inquired carefully about the place, and they said that it used to be an ancient tomb, but they always thought that nothing strange happened, and now it has become a forbidden place, and this process started ten years ago. Ten years ago, there was an incident in which a flash flood broke out in this village ten years ago, and the flood washed away a mountain, and the ancient tomb was also washed away, of course, not all of them, but only a small part of the ancient tomb was exposed. However, this small part is not a big deal, according to the villagers at that time, it can be seen that there are very gold and silver treasures in the ancient tomb, and at night it will emit a dazzling light, this light is very peculiar, and it looks like it gives people a very strange feeling. At that time, a few villagers were greedy, and after the flood waters receded, they wanted to sneak into the ancient tomb to steal the gold and silver there, of course, no one would care about it in this poor country. But they never returned.

They didn't come back, it doesn't mean that no one is worried about the treasure, I don't know why, the news spread, not only the local villagers, even the outside rangers, the high-rollers of the rivers and lakes also came in, thinking of the ancient tomb to explore the exploration, according to a high-roller, the light that came out, is not the ordinary light, but the treasure light, is the ancient tomb has a lot of precious treasures will have such a reaction, so that year the village is very lively, there are many people coming, there are many people disappeared, no matter how many people come, The tombs were well preserved, but those who disappeared never reappeared. Some people speculate that they have already gone through another passage, of course, more people think that they have all been swallowed by the ancient tombs, but since then, no one has seen them on the rivers and lakes, and I think that those people are most likely more than lucky.

It's going to be tossed for a year, and the people who disappeared in the ancient tomb this year have exceeded hundreds of people, these hundreds of people are not ordinary nameless seats, and the rivers and lakes are old monsters that have been famous for a long time, their disappearance has a great impact, but no one dares to enter this ancient tomb anymore. Later, the government was finally alarmed, and in desperation, the government sealed the boundary of the ancient cemetery. In fact, even if it is not sealed, no one will come in again, because the hundreds of people who disappeared in front of it are already a good example, no one will joke with their lives, no one will think that they will be more powerful than those who disappeared, and this matter has gradually precipitated, and no one will mention it in the future, even if it is mentioned, it is like encountering some kind of taboo, and they dare not say it casually. This place has slowly become a forbidden place.

Of course, I didn't take one side of the story, and I did some research myself, and found that what the villagers said was the truth, and in fact it was more serious than what they said, because after those high-rollers disappeared, the government also secretly organized a group of people to excavate, and finally all the people sent by the government to the ancient cemetery disappeared, and no one ever saw them again. However, no one dared to mention this matter, because once it was traced down, I don't know how many people would want to drop their black yarn hats.

I thought this place was just a story made up by the villagers themselves, but I was excited to think that it really had such a big origin. I think there's a big secret hidden here. I don't know why, I always feel that if I go in, I will definitely gain something, but the previous examples make me very conflicted, perhaps, there is no need to give up your life for the sake of a moment of curiosity, right? Of course I think so, and no one doesn't think so. If anyone sees this note, don't laugh at me, no matter how bold I am, knowing that I am going to die, I will not go.

But what happened next made me decide to go inside and take a look. Originally, I decided to leave the next day, and that night, I was lying in bed, thinking about these things all the time, but I couldn't sleep, and this matter was like a mystery that became more and more tangled, and I couldn't let go. But there is no way. In the middle of the night, I suddenly heard someone calling me by my name, and it was still called by my nickname. My nickname is no longer called by many people, and I was still called by my mother at home when I was very young, but how can anyone know my nickname here? I woke up and wanted to hear where the sound was coming from. But when I listened closely, I found that I couldn't hear anything. I thought I had misheard, so I slept again, and this time not long after I fell asleep, I heard the voice again, and I couldn't hear whether it was a man or a woman, but it sounded very erratic, as if it was far away, and it seemed to be very close, and I sat up immediately, and I was very frightened. I don't know if it's a human or a ghost. I got dressed, and the voice was no longer audible, so I didn't lose heart, and waited for a while, and sure enough, the voice sounded again.

A succession of voices rang out, and then I finally knew that that strange thing had finally fallen on me, I didn't know what was going on, and I didn't know what I was going to face, but I had an urge in my heart to see what it was, so I carefully walked in the direction of the sound, and found that the voice was getting clearer and clearer, and I walked outside, and then I realized that the voice was actually coming from inside the ancient tomb. I looked into the distance, and sure enough, just as the local villagers said, the ancient tomb emitted a strange light at this time, enveloping the surrounding ten miles, but I couldn't see what was inside, as if it was very lively inside, and it seemed to be very deserted, and the sound came out of the light.

To say that I was not afraid that it was false, I wanted to run as soon as possible, and I never wanted to return to this place, but I didn't run. Because I think that since the voice knows my nickname, it must know me, so this tomb may have something to do with me, but I don't know what it has to do with it. For a while, I was more and more curious about it, I wanted to leave early in the morning, but this voice made me decide to stay, but I didn't rush in immediately, I know, I can't rush in now.

I thought about it for a long time, and I thought it was safer to go during the day, because the light at night really scared me, and I didn't know what would happen, so I wanted to choose the daytime, choose a time when the sun is at its highest, and there should be no problem, right?

Of course, I later knew that I was too naïve to think about this, in fact, those who disappeared, there was no shortage of smart people, how could anyone not think of going to the ancient tomb during the day when the sun was at its peak, but in the end they still disappeared, I really didn't think at the time, it was because I was too smart, but it was precisely because of this that there would be a later adventure, now speaking, this adventure had a great impact on me, and I can't tell whether it was good or bad, but that adventure left a deep impression on me.

At that time, since I had decided, I didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately started to prepare, what do I need to prepare to enter the ancient tomb? Although I haven't been in it before, I still know some, the first one, like this kind of place, things to ward off evil spirits need to be prepared, I don't care if it's useful or not, I have collected a lot, and along the way, I also like to go to some strange places, so I also carry some with me. When the local villagers saw me collecting this, they immediately knew what I wanted to do, so they all came to see me, but I had already made up my mind.

Then it didn't go so well, it rained for a week, and it was raining heavily, and I didn't go in, but at night, the tomb still glowed, and I still heard the sound, and I knew that there must be something in there, and it had something to do with me. That's what I thought at the time, and of course, I found out that the facts were a little different from what I thought, but it didn't make sense at the time.

I waited for a week, and finally when the sky cleared, it was fine, and I was ready to act. When the sky cleared, I deliberately chose a noon time, when the sun's rays were strongest, and there should be nothing to do.

The villagers were very nice, and they were all trying to persuade me, fearing that I would lose my life, but my desire to go in became stronger and stronger, and despite their obstruction, I brought all my things and went in when the time was almost up. I went within ten miles of the ancient tomb, but I found that for some reason, the temperature here had dropped a lot, and although the sun in the sky was still strong, it always made people feel gloomy, so I didn't pay attention and continued to walk.

In fact, I walked all the way, saying that it was not far away, saying that it was not close, and it was very soon there, and finally, I saw the entrance of the ancient tomb, and when I saw the entrance of the ancient tomb, I found that it did not look as terrible as I imagined, and the entrance that was broken by the torrent looked dilapidated.

I looked left and right and saw that there was no one, so I decided to go in. But at that time, I noticed a phenomenon, around this ancient tomb, not to mention people, not even some animals. It is said that this is a mountain forest, and there should always be some game, but now it seems very quiet. I felt something unusual, but the feeling of wanting to go in was getting stronger and stronger. Now that I think about it, I was in a state of mind at the time, as if there was a mysterious force that had been calling me in, and I didn't resist at all. Now it seems, was it really my own intention that I decided to go in at that time? I wasn't sure, but I was starting to doubt. And those who disappeared, I'm afraid there are some people who go in in this way, right?
