Chapter 279: The Origin of the Haunted Mansion!
After eating, the two took a boat back to Runzhou District, and learned through inquiry that the county records of that year are now stored in the public library in Runzhou. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The two of us came to this library and searched for a long time, only to see a separate room, in which were all local county records, these are unique books, which can only be read and not borrowed.
The two of us divided the work to search, focusing on finding local county records, although the city of Runzhou was not big, but there were several county seats, and the county records of each county recorded a lot of things, very messy, and it was really not so easy to find out what was related to the ancient house.
After searching for a morning, looking through the county chronicles, but still no clues were found, the two of us walked out of the library in frustration, went to have lunch nearby, chatted casually, and ran back to the library, unwilling to find it again.
The hard work paid off, and in the case of my glance and ten lines, almost scanning, I finally found a trace of clues in a county chronicle.
The place recorded in this county chronicle is now Danyang City, there is an ancient town in Danyang City, called Lingkou Town, Lingkou Town is located in the southeast of Danyang City, Binjiang near the sea, belongs to the subtropical monsoon climate, the four seasons are distinct, there is a lot of rain in summer, and it is easy to drought in winter, so Lingkou Town dug a lot of channels to resist drought and drainage.
During the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty, there was a big family in Lingkou Town, the surname of this family was Fan, and the person was called Fan Yuanwai, Fan Yuanwai was not only a famous big landlord in Lingkou Town, but also a big businessman who controlled the shipping business in Lingkou Town, and everyone knew it in Lingkou Town.
One year, Fan Yuanwai took a wife for his only son Fan Xiaosheng, and Fan Xiaosheng's wife was also from a big family in Lingkou Town.
On the day of the wedding, it was very lively, after all, it was the wedding of a large family, there were many guests, but unfortunately the sky was not beautiful, on the day of the wedding, the sky was full of dark clouds, lightning and thunder, and it was about to rain hard, and everyone's faces were not very good-looking.
Sure enough, when the guests were being entertained, there was a sudden strong wind, and the heavy rain was pouring, and the heavy rain fell very suddenly, and it was very heavy, and it rained for three days and three nights, without stopping, and the entire street of Lingkou Town was flooded with rainwater.
The heavy rain came fiercely, soon broke the embankment, the rolling Yangtze River water surged, a hundred years of flood, instantly the town, submerged more than half, Fan Mansion just built in the low-lying area, overnight, the entire Fan Mansion dozens of people, did not have time to escape, all were swept away by the flood.
After nearly five or six days, when the flood receded, the entire Lingkou town became a ruin, and those people who were lucky enough to escape came back to reorganize their homes, but found that the Fan Mansion in the past had completely lost its trace, and it seemed to have been uprooted by the flood.
This incident is strange, and because Fanfu is a famous symbol of Lingkou Town at that time, this incident was recorded in the county annals.
Seeing this, I boldly guessed in my heart that this flooded mansion is probably the ancient mansion in the deep sea, although the description of the mansion in the county chronicles is not clear, but it is also a Fan mansion, and it appeared in the Jiaqing period, which is really consistent.
I called Li Shishi over softly, handed her the county chronicle, looked at it for a while, her beautiful eyes also appeared bright, nodded at me, we put down the county chronicle, and walked out of the library.
"It seems that the Fan Mansion that was flooded is the Fan Mansion in the deep sea, I have heard of it, but after mortals die, if the grievance is too great, it is easy to turn into a ghost, the Fan Mansion just held a wedding at that time, it can be said that it was the happiest time, but it was destroyed by the flood overnight, from bliss to extreme sadness, so it is normal to turn into a ghost......
As soon as Li Shishi walked out of the library, she couldn't help but analyze, and I thought so too, so I continued her words: "Now that you know the origin of this ancient mansion, do you have any way to deal with it?" ”
Li Shishi frowned and pondered, and said after a long time: "In that county chronicle, except for a brief record of this incident, there is no record of the infestation of the ancient house in the deep sea, so it is impossible to judge its haunting pattern, but I can guess that since it was submerged during the flood, it is likely to ......appear in rainy and foggy weather out of the obsession before it was born."
My heart moved, and I admired Li Shishi's thoughtfulness more and more, and she was able to deduce the pattern of the ancient mansion from this point, and it sounded very reasonable, I nodded at her and motioned for her to continue.
"This ancient mansion must have a deep grudge, it is not easy to deal with, if you want to deal with it, you have to resolve its resentment, or use strong strength to defeat it, the first one is probably not so easy, in case it is killed by it without persuasion......"
Li Shishi looked at me and said seriously: "Do you have the confidence to fight it?" ”
My eyes narrowed slightly, if it was with the strength of my life master, I am afraid it would be a bit suspenseful, after all, the ancient mansion is an existence that can be destroyed even by the masters of the void period, but if I am demonized, I am quite confident.
So I nodded and said, "If I play all my cards, I should be able to beat it......"
Li Shishi looked at me in surprise, as if she wanted to see something from my face, my face did not change, she said thoughtfully: "This is the best, I don't want to accompany you to die, then, let's go back to the island first, and wait until the rain and fog to see." ”
I nodded, and the two of us took a boat back to the island, and stayed on the island for two days, it was sunny and hot weather, and we didn't go to sea, but stayed on the beach, I thought that there was no way to go on like this, and I couldn't wait forever, so I looked up at the clouds in the sky, pinched my fingers and counted a hexagram, and the hexagram showed that there would be foggy weather tomorrow night.
I told Li Shishi the results of the calculation, and she was impressed with me again, perhaps, in their eyes, those who can pinch their fingers and count are all masters.
Since it is calculated that there is foggy weather, then the ancient house is likely to appear tomorrow night, just in case, we have made careful preparations, the two also have a joint exercise, enhance the tacit understanding of the battle, and when the time comes, I will release the little turtle, fortunately it is night, there is no one around, the little turtle has become larger, we sit on its back, towards the direction of the deep sea.
Sure enough, as soon as the time came, a large amount of fog appeared on the sea, and the fog was thick, if I hadn't opened the Netherworld, I would have been unable to see, but Li Shishi didn't have Nethereye Eyes, she could only see clearly within a radius of two meters, or rather, all she could see now was me and the turtle's back......
The fog fills the entire surface of the sea, and in the dark night, it is full of white, and the surrounding waves crash and make a sound, which is both magical and unsettling, as if we don't know what monsters will appear, and swallow us when we don't react. (To be continued.) )
