Chapter 14: The Vanishing Cabin

Shu Yao is a person who says the same, and since she has decided to go, then she will not have any more hesitation. The next day, Shu Yao left for Xinjiang, a place that she will never forget for the rest of her life. On the one hand, naturally she wanted to understand the incident seven years ago, and on the other hand, the reason why she decided to go so decisively was also out of trust in Huang Jun. In fact, in Jiugong Mountain, everyone believed that Huang Jun might unfortunately die, but only Shu Yao didn't believe it. Because of what Shu Yao and Huang Jun experienced together, Huang Juan didn't experience it, Gu Yue didn't know, and more importantly, no one knew Huang Jun's identity better than him, that kind of identity was almost immortal, in Shu Yao's opinion, whether it was evil spirits, evil spirits, or the so-called time trap, it would not have any impact on Huang Jun, for no other reason, because Huang Jun inherited everything from that mysterious race, and within the scope of knowledge, there was no power that could really make Huang Jun disappear, which was the source of Shu Yao's confidence.

But Huang Jun still hasn't heard from him after all, where has he gone? What kind of calculation is he playing? What happened to him? Shu Yao sometimes thought about this problem, but he couldn't figure it out, so he had to comfort himself and say: Huang Jun must have his reasons for doing this, and the most important thing is that Huang Jun will not harm himself. Yes, this is Shu Yao's always firm belief in one point, how many times in times of crisis and hardship, we have experienced it together, and we have struggled together from the line of life and death, Shu Yao has this confidence.

After seven years, the changes in Xinjiang are still greatly beyond Shu Yao's expectations, many places are no longer as desolate as before, and a large number of modern buildings have appeared, so that people do not feel the desolation of the frontier, but have a natural modern atmosphere. Shu Yao followed the path in his memory and came to the town where the ancient house was located, but found that although there were changes here from seven years ago, the changes were not big, which made Shu Yao breathe a sigh of relief, so next, all the relevant clues were much easier to find. Then, when Shu Yao came to the ancient house seven years ago, he found that it had already been razed to the ground, empty and empty, and he couldn't find any memory of it. This discovery made Shu Yao very disappointed, the ancient house disappeared, then the secret hidden in the ancient house also disappeared, since it can no longer reappear, then, what happened back then will also be completely dusted with its disappearance, even if you want to pursue it, there is no way at all.

That night, Shu Yao couldn't sleep in the hotel alone, she originally planned to officially leave this strange place the next day, but for some reason, Shu Yao's heart began to feel restless, and she always felt that something was going to happen. Reason told him that the ancient house no longer existed, and there was no need to worry about it anymore, but her intuition told her that this thing was not over, it must not be over, there must be something unusual about it.

The waiter at the hotel came in to deliver dinner, but Shu Yao stopped him, "I'm sorry, let me ask, was there a big house in the open space in the west of the city?" A very old mansion? ”

The waiter frowned, as if he was trying to remember something, and suddenly, as if he remembered something, the expression on his face was very exciting, "Miss, you ask this, yes?" ”

Shu Yao knew that there must be something hidden in it as soon as he saw the waiter's expression, so he said: "I used to have a relative who lived there, and I haven't been in touch for a long time, and I only recently thought of coming to see it, only to find that it has become an empty space, so I want to ask where the former relative has moved."

When the waiter heard this, he said with a strange expression: "Do you still have relatives living there?" Miss, there is nothing there, you better not go, besides, we don't know about the situation there" After the waiter finished speaking, he immediately wanted to leave, but Shu Yao didn't know where the waiter was unwilling to say, so when the waiter hadn't walked out of the room, he took out a stack of money from his pocket, "Tell me honestly what's going on, this stack of money is yours"

The waiter looked at the money in Shu Yao's hand, the expression on his face was very contradictory, it could be seen that he was struggling very badly, "Miss, it's not that I don't want to say it, it's just that the matter is true"

Shu Yao immediately took out another stack of money, "Now, you can tell me, right?" ”

The waiter smiled helplessly: "Okay, it seems that Miss has to know, in this case, it doesn't matter if I say it, but I don't say it's really for your good, and besides, this matter is very weird."

"You don't have to worry about the weird method, you just need to tell me what you know," Shu Yao said.

The waiter nodded, "Actually, we don't know much about that ancient house, but I have heard about it from the old people, and I have only come here to work in the past two years, so I don't know much about some things, but there is an open secret here, that is, no one is allowed to mention that ancient house, and no one is allowed to talk about anything about that ancient house, but all the people here have great curiosity about that ancient house."

"Oh? Specifically, "Shu Yao knew that there was a play as soon as he heard it."

"I heard the old people say, back then, well, I think about it, to be precise, there was indeed an ancient house there seven years ago, and it was a big family, which had a great influence in the local area. But then overnight, the old house disappeared," the waiter recalled.

"Gone? What's going on? ”

"I don't know the specifics, I just know that it was a very dark night, and the night before there were people who saw that the lights were lit in the old house, and there were people talking inside, but the next morning people woke up and found that the whole old house had disappeared, and the people inside didn't know where they were," the waiter said.

"Isn't there anyone trying to contact or find the people in the old house?" Shu Yao asked.

The waiter shook his head, "It is said that someone should be looking for it, but because the owner of the ancient house usually does not have much contact with the people in the town, and his personality is very withdrawn, so after the ancient house disappeared, people didn't know any information about the owner of the ancient house, and they didn't know what relatives the owner of the ancient house had. There were no clues such as murder at the scene, and the matter was then closed," the waiter said.

"But if that's the case, how can you think of Furuya with such an expression? I guess there are other reasons for this, right? Shu Yao hit the nail on the head.

"Of course, there are other reasons, you know, although the people in the town don't know the people in the ancient house, but the history of the ancient house is very clear, it is said that before the liberation, the owner of this ancient house was a rich man, very powerful in the local area, but after the liberation, it gradually declined, so, some people say that there is a treasure hidden in the ancient house, this legend is very absurd, but some people still believe, so after the ancient house disappears, there will be some homeless people who want to dig treasure in the open space in the dead of night, But those who entered the ancient house never returned, and no one saw them again," said the waiter.

"You're saying they're all missing? Disappeared without warning? Shu Yao said.

"Yes, that's it"

"But what does their disappearance have to do with that ancient house, maybe they went somewhere else, maybe they just left the town at all, and there is no need to make a fuss," Shu Yao retorted.

"That's not the case, these people, there should be a total of more than ten or twenty people who disappeared before and after, these people are all famous local loafers, it is impossible for them to leave this town if they have nothing to do, and besides, they were all telling others that they were digging for treasures before they disappeared, so their disappearance is definitely not accidental, but related to the disappeared ancient house" The waiter affirmed.

"Why, are you so sure?" Shu Yao still asked, she always felt that the waiter was not telling the truth.

The waiter hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Because of my father, because my father is also one of the missing people, he told me that he was going to dig up treasures in the open space of the ancient house, you know, this kind of thing must not be done in the daytime, so they generally choose to do it at night, at that time my father did not go alone, and took several people with him, but after that night, he never came back, and no one saw them again." The waiter said.

Shu Yao was silent, he didn't know what to say, in fact, from the perspective of time, the ancient house disappeared seven years ago, that is to say, the ancient house disappeared after he left, there must be some connection in this.

"What else? It's impossible for people to have such a taboo about the ancient house because of the disappearance of a few people, I wonder if there is something else going on in this? Shu Yao asked.

The waiter looked at Shu Yao with admiration, "Miss, you are so powerful, you can see it at a glance, in fact, if it was just like this, we would not have such a big fear of the ancient house, but you know, some news came out later." ”

"What's the news?" Shu Yao's spirit was shocked, and her intuition told her that she was about to grasp the key to the matter.

"On the night of the seventh day of the lunar month, some people say that the ancient house will appear, and the lights are bright, and some people say that they hear a voice coming from inside, and they only know that someone is talking, but they don't know what to say, but when it is dawn the next morning, when someone looks again, they find that there is still nothing in the open space," said the waiter.

"Could it be that it's just a rumor, or a hallucination?" Shu Yao said.

The waiter smiled helplessly, "To be honest, I think there is such a possibility, after all, I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but this kind of thing is not groundless after all, the reason why this statement appears, I think there must be a reason, naturally, I don't know what the specific reason is, but I always believe that the ancient house is cursed"

"Cursed?"

"Of course, that's what the people of the town say"
