Chapter XVII

Huang Jun said: "If that's the case, then, how did that mysterious little pavilion come to be?" ”

Bao Ren said: "It's even more strange that no one can say it clearly, and as far as I know, the ancestors of this mysterious pavilion have mentioned that it is not always there, it sometimes appears, sometimes it does not appear, so sometimes it can be found, sometimes it can't be found." And all the information about that secret, including the notes I had, I found it in that cabinet."

Huang Jun said: "This is really strange, that is, no matter how you demolish the current house, as long as you build a house on this boundary, this house will automatically have such a pavilion." It seems that there is a mystery in this, so, you disappeared back then? ”

Bao Rendao; "Yes, I was in that pavilion back then, but the slut didn't find it, in fact, I went in a few times before, but I didn't tell her, because I didn't know about her at the time, this pavilion was too mysterious, I didn't want her to worry"

Huang Jun said: "However, judging from all indications, all the changes started from the time you entered that pavilion, that is, after you mysteriously disappeared in the eyes of outsiders, if you have entered before, then it means that there should be no danger, and nothing will happen."

Bao Ren said: "Yes, it was originally like this, but something unusual happened when I entered that pavilion that time."

Huang Jun's spirits perked up and he knew that the most important part was coming, so he immediately said, "What happened?" ”

Bao Ren didn't say anything more, seemed to hesitate, Huang Jun said: "Now you tell us everything you know, so that we can think of a way, and we are not interested in your family's secrets at all, we are only interested in the matter itself"

Bao Ren sighed and said, "Well, since it's all said here, I'll just say it together." I remember it was a sunny day, but it was very dark inside the house, and we were all the same in this house, or the old house, and I didn't think much of it at the time. I didn't have anything to do at the time, so I came out of my room to get something, and I was looking for some books to read, but at that moment, the attic appeared."

Huang Jun said: "The pavilion appeared? How did it come about? Out of nowhere? ”

Bao Ren said: "It's always been like that, the pavilion said that it would appear when it appeared, and there would be no signs before, and it was the same that day, I just saw it suddenly appear, and I felt very happy at the time, because I had been in it before, and I was cautious when I went in for the first time, and then I went in and there was nothing, but the books in there were very interesting, they were all notes of the ancestors, but those books couldn't be brought out, I saw the pavilion appear at the time, and I went in"

Huang Jun said: "So, at that time, your wife didn't find out where you went, did she?" ”

Bao Ren said: "Yes, she didn't happen where I went, when I appeared before, I went in and appeared soon after, so even she didn't know about the existence of the pavilion, and I didn't tell her at that time, as usual."

Huang Jun nodded and said, "If that's the case, it's easy to understand that your wife mistakenly thinks you're missing, go on"

Bao Ren said: "When I entered that pavilion, I didn't think much about it, I still looked at those notes as usual, but when I looked at it, I don't know how long it took, and suddenly I felt a little wrong."

Huang Jun said: "What's wrong?" ”

Bao Ren said: "In the past, when the pavilion appeared, there were some hours, and when the hour came, I couldn't keep it if I wanted to, it would disappear in about three to five hours, and it would pop me out in advance, but I didn't know how long I watched it at the time, but it must have been more than three or five hours, and it didn't move."

Huang Jun said: "No movement? It seems that there was something unusual about that day."

Bao Ren said: "It's really unusual, I only reacted later, looked at the time, I had been in it all afternoon at that time, I was afraid that my wife was in a hurry, I wanted to come out immediately, but then something happened to me"

Huang Jun said: "What's the matter?" ”

Bao Ren said: "In the past, when I went in, I was automatically popped out of the pavilion, and I came out naturally when the time came, in fact, I used to feel that I was not enough to stay in it, but that day I didn't know why, it didn't pop me out, I had to want to come out by myself, but when I thought like this, I found that I couldn't get out."

Huang Jun said: "Why can't you get out? What happened? ”

Bao Ren said: "The door I came in is gone, anyway, I can't go back from the same way, I couldn't find the way back no matter how I looked, and then I began to realize the seriousness of the matter, I searched all over the pavilion, and there was still no result, and then I realized that I was trapped inside."

Huang Jun said: "In other words, you were trapped in the pavilion at that time and couldn't get out, right?" ”

Bao Ren said: "Yes, that's it, I don't know what happened, and I don't know what to do, but at that time I forced myself to calm down, and then I found a small door"

Huang Jun said: "Is it the door when you came in?" ”

Bao Er said: "No, it's not the door I came into, in fact, I have never seen that door, and I don't know why it appeared, but at that time I really had nowhere to go, and after seeing the door appear, I had to instinctively want to go in and see what was inside, and then, something terrible happened, if I came again, I never wanted to enter that door again, I never wanted to go in again"

When Bao Ren said this, he seemed very excited, as if he had thought of something terrible, Huang Jun originally wanted to tell Bao Ren to calm down, but when he heard Bao Ren's voice, he knew that Bao Ren must have thought of something very painful now, and it seemed that what happened at that time must have left a deep impression on his heart.

"I'm sorry to make you laugh, I'll continue" It took a long time for Bao Ren to recover.

Huang Jun nodded and said: "It seems that you must have discovered something terrible at that time, but now it's all over, don't be excited, you tell us, in the end, what did you see"

Bao Ren said: "When I entered the door, I saw the same pavilion, that room I am sure I have never entered before, the furnishings inside are different from the outside, from the furnishings, inside are some ancient furniture, from the style, it seems to be the Song Dynasty, I knew at the time, this place, it is likely that the ancestors of the past dynasties have never come, this, there must be a secret, and our Bao family, if there is a secret, then it must be that secret, think of this, I was very excited, but what happened next made me disheartened."

Huang Jun said: "Tell me, what happened next?" ”

Bao Ren said: "Next, next, I saw a person, a very strange person"

Huang Jun said: "You mean, is there anyone inside?" There's even one person in there? ”

Bao Ren said: "That's right, I saw a person at the time, it was a man in his thirties, looking at the clothes, it was an ancient costume, he saw me, seemed very surprised, and then began to speak"

Huang Jun said: "What did he tell you?" ”

Bao Ren said: "That's the problem, because I couldn't understand what he said to me at that time, I couldn't understand what he was talking about, so I felt that his tone of voice was very weird, but I felt very familiar."

Huang Jun said: "He can't always speak a foreign language, right?" ”

Bao Ren said: "No, I didn't hear it at the time, but I have reacted over the years, and what he said to me at that time should be an ancient language, to be precise, in terms of tone, it should be the ancient language of the Song people."

Huang Jun said: "The ancient language of the Song people? Are you saying that what he told you was the official language of the Song Dynasty? This, how is this possible"

Bao Ren said: "I just didn't think of this at the time, so I didn't react, I watched him talk to me for a long time, but I was very dazed, and then he seemed to react, and then looked at me, smiled, and began to speak to me in another language, this time I understood, authentic Mandarin"

Huang Jun said: "Wait, are you saying that at the beginning he spoke to you in the ancient language of the Song people, and then he spoke to you in Mandarin, who is this person?" ”

Bao Ren said: "At that time, I really didn't know who he was, I thought he was very strange and mysterious, but at that time, I didn't think too much about it, and when he spoke to me in Mandarin, I heard him say, I can hear me talk this time?" ”

Huang Jun said: "It seems that this man has been prepared for this situation for a long time"

Bao Ren said: "Yes, I can see that I heard him speak Mandarin at the time, and I didn't think much about it, so I started talking to him, but the more surprised I was in this conversation, in his words, I felt a little weird, but I couldn't find out what went wrong."

Huang Jun said: "What's weird? Let's hear it."

Bao Ren said: "At that time, he asked me what age I am, it felt as if I had been here for many years, although I was very strange in my heart, I still answered him, and then he heard the year I reported, and seemed to be very emotional, but then he told me that there was a secret to tell me."

Huang Jun said: "The secret he said can't be the secret that your family has been looking for, right?" ”

Bao Ren said: "I thought the same way at the first time, but I was still very nervous at the time, I didn't know why this strange person suddenly appeared, and what he wanted to do, so I asked him why he told me the secret."

Huang Jun said: "What did he say? ”

Bao Ren said: "At that time, his answer was very strange, he said that he was entrusted by a friend to tell his descendants this secret, so he saw me and wanted to tell me."

Huang Jun said: "It seems that you must not have believed it at the time"

Bao Ren said: "Of course I don't believe it, I usually have very few contacts, I don't have any friends, and it is impossible to know such a strange person, and besides, he said that he was entrusted by a friend, who did this sentence lie, I must not know his friends, in other words, even if I know, it is definitely not from our family, how can they know the secrets of our family, I was a little disappointed"
