Chapter 035: There are many mysteries
I stepped out of the large flower hall dedicated to my ancestors, opened my phone and saw that it was almost twelve o'clock. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info So, I went back to the wing room in the dark and slept on the kang with my clothes. Today, after a whole day of tossing, I was still quite tired, although I was in a strange century-old mansion, but I soon fell asleep in a daze.
In my sleep, I saw myself wandering around this Qing Dynasty mansion with blue bricks and gray tiles and carved walls, and met many ancestors of the Ma clan. They are either dressed in the wide-sleeved cheongsam and flag head of the Qing Dynasty, or dressed in the red official uniform of the Ming Dynasty; Some stand on the verandah, some in the garden. When the ancestors saw me, they just looked at me strangely and smiled, but they didn't say anything.
Why do you have such dreams? Is it because the ancestral statues in the worship hall are too realistic, one by one, lifelike, as if you can walk down from the portrait at any time?
……
Early in the morning, I woke up sleepy-eyed, stretched, and looked at the ebony carved bed to see that Fa Ge was no longer there. However, his jacket and mobile phone are still on several tables, probably to wash or go to the toilet.
With that in mind, I jumped up and went to the garden, turned on the faucet, and began to wash. After grooming, I still didn't hear any movement from Fa Ge. I stood in the garden and shouted, "Brother Fa! What about you? I'll go outside to see if there's any early selling and I'll be back right away! ”
In the empty old house, no one answered me. I didn't think much about it, I opened the door and went around Majia Village. In this small remote village, there are few people in broad daylight, not to mention that it is early in the morning.
After walking around, I didn't see any breakfast, so I had to go to the grocery store owner and ask for two packs of instant noodles and a pot of boiling water. I asked, "Boss, have you seen my co-workers?" Is that the tall fat man who came along? ”
The boss shook his head: "No." I also just got up, just opened the door, and I didn't see anyone. ”
I had to say, "Oh. Well, boss, thank you for the instant noodles! He turned around and returned to the old house, stood in the garden and shouted "Fa Ge" a few times, but still no one responded.
I couldn't care so much, so I opened a packet of instant noodles and soaked them myself to eat first. After eating noodles, smoking three cigarettes, and going to the toilet, I still didn't see Fa Ge's figure.
I vaguely began to feel that it was not good, early in the morning, where would he go without even saying hello? Walking into the wing, I looked through my brother's coat and saw that the mobile phone key, wallet, cigarettes, everything was still there, and he was definitely not going back to the city by car.
I hurriedly searched the whole house, smoked cigarette after cigarette, and waited until eleven o'clock, but I still didn't see him! made another call back to the company, but Yuan Yuan was surprised: "Brother Fa didn't come back, isn't he with you?" ”
I didn't know how to explain, so I had to hang up the phone, and at this time, there was a big wolf dog outside the gate of the old house, sniffing east and west, and looking at me curiously. As soon as I saw it, I had an idea.
So, I let out a soft whistle and beckoned the big wolfhound in. My hometown is in a small village at the bottom of the Mianshan Mountain, every family in the village has dogs, I have lived with dogs since I was a child, so I am very familiar with their habits, and I have a set of methods for dealing with dogs.
Sure enough, it obediently wandered into the old mansion. I gently scratched its head and neck, and when it was comfortable, I squatted very obediently and wagged its tail. So I went into the room, took out Fa Ge's coat, and sniffed it.
After a while, the big wolf dog barked and pulled at my trousers with his mouth. I immediately followed it, and saw it leap to the side of the ancient well, and lay on its front paws on the railing, barking and looking at me.
I'm surprised, could it be that Brother Fa has gone to the bottom of the ancient well?! So I also lay on the well railing, poked my head to see, the wellhead is relatively wide, about one meter in diameter, although no one has used it for many years, but for some reason, the well platform is very smooth. This well is about ten meters deep, and although the light at the bottom of the well is very weak, you can still see that there is no water at the bottom of the well, nothing, and no Fa Ge can be seen.
I looked at the big wolfdog suspiciously, and thought, what the hell are you pulling me over to see? However, I immediately felt an unusually strong cold air seeping out from under the ancient well! This is not the usual cold - although it is the height of summer, and the heat is rising everywhere in the streets, when one lies on the fence of this well, it feels like one has entered the freezer, and within a minute, goosebumps will break out of the cold.
This...... It's so strange, how can a well get cold? It's like a high-powered freezer?!
Also, why did the big wolf dog show me here? I could see clearly that there was nothing below the bottom of the well.
I couldn't think of any ideas for a while, so I had to call back to the company and tell the old party truthfully: Fa Ge is gone, and I plan to stay here for one more day to see if there is any news of him. It can be heard from the tone of the old man that he is also full of doubts, and only after a while did he say: "Okay, you wait another day, be careful yourself, and call me at any time if there is any situation." ”
I went to the town alone, and soon turned around a few times, but I didn't see Fa Ge. I drank enough, ate enough, bought enough flashlights and batteries, and returned to the Ma family's old house before dark. I met Boss Ma and asked: Why did he specifically instruct us last night not to go out of the wing room after 12 o'clock in the evening?
He only vaguely said that it was actually nothing, and that it was always not safe to be outside at night. In between conversations, I always felt a little uncomfortable with him. Moreover, I felt that the whole old house was quite strange, including the old well that looked like a big cold storage. However, when I turned on the electronic Luo Geng in my mobile phone, I didn't find any demons and monsters within a kilometer range.
It was dark, and it was a full moon night. The round and bright moon hung brightly in the starry sky, but I looked at the moon and sighed, Brother Fa, Brother Fa, where are you? Anyway, I'll listen to it!
……
The night is as cool as water.
The chirping of insects and the croaking of frogs add a bit of silence to this century-old mansion.
I lit seven or eight candles in the wing, but people sat outside the threshold, vigilantly staring at the "electronic Luo Geng" on their mobile phones. However, he stayed until almost twelve o'clock, and not a single ghost was to be seen.
Facing the vast night, I began to feel a little sleepy, and was about to go into the house to rest for a while, when I suddenly remembered that Boss Ma had specially instructed us: after twelve o'clock on the night of the full moon, we can only stay in the wing, and do not go to the garden.
What happens here after twelve o'clock?
Thinking of this, I was intrigued, so I extinguished the candle and closed the door, but opened the curtain a crack and watched through the window to see what was going on.
