When Xie Chenhui asked me this, I was stunned, how could he know that we were going to look for ghosts?

"We don't go to the ghosts, it's the ghosts who find us." Alexander, an honest gringo, opened his mouth as soon as he heard Xie Chenhui finish speaking.

I slapped myself in the face, "It's over, I can't hide it." I had to quickly come out and explain, "We didn't go looking for it, we were really found by those ghosts." ”

"How can such a good thing be found?" Xie Chenhui pursed his lips: "I'll just say that the boss is biased!" It's good to bring this lustful devil to say that after all, he used to be a racing driver, but I really can't figure it out when I bring you with me. ”

"Eccentric?" As soon as I heard it, I became angry, who likes to put this bird egg? He also said that the fat man took me over to be eccentric! I scolded in my heart, you are Parkinson's again, right?

"Isn't it? I heard that there is a fairy mansion in the Gobi in this area, if you can go inside, you can ask the old gods inside some questions, and the questions can definitely give you a correct answer. ”

"So?" I thought, "So you mean that place isn't a place to hurt people?" ”

"I've heard some old people talk about it in the nursing home here, saying that the shamanic gods benefit us after they die."

"Shamanism?" I was a little dizzy, "Isn't the Uyghur religion Islam?" ”

"I asked our people about this, and their explanation was that the Uyghur ancestors believed in shamanism, Manichaeism, Nestorianism, Zoroastrianism (Zoroastrianism) and Buddhism, and did not convert to Islam until the 10th century. In the third year of the Northern Song Dynasty (965), the Samani Dynasty of Islam in Central Asia introduced Islam to the Qarakhanid State in Xinjiang, and then spread to the interior in two ways. ”

"In other words, those who lived in the village before were at least before the Northern Song Dynasty? As a result, some beliefs against shamanism are still preserved. ”

"There are only a few, right? Shamanism is based on animism, which says that the soul is still alive after a person dies, and if your soul is strong enough, it is enough to use the soul to drive your bones again. ”

"In other words, even if only the white bone soul is left, it can lie on it?" I asked, a little surprised.

"That's it! Shamanism believes that there are several souls, and it is not the only one that leaves the body after death. Xie Chenhui spread his hands, "If you ask again, I won't know." But the reason why I know you're looking for a ghost is that I've heard that whenever someone is asked about a ghost, there's a black birthmark on his neck, which I happened to see when the boss first came back. ”

"Oh! How do you know so much, if I had known in advance, I would have asked me how many girls I would have met in my life. ”

"Don't talk, you rascal." I interrupted Alexander's rumors and asked, "How do you know this?" ”

"The nursing home is basically full of old people, who know things or history or wild history is too useful." Xie Chenhui smiled mysteriously, "I also found out a good news." ”

"What?"

"Wait for the boss tomorrow. Just kidding, this is a great opportunity to ask for credit! What if I told you what I didn't say tomorrow! ”

"Cut, stingy." I scolded helplessly and turned back to my room, lying on the hotel bed at night, thinking that maybe I would sleep in the cold desert land in a few days, so I hugged the quilt even more obsessively, looked at the night sky outside the window, and suddenly thought of the question that the fat man inadvertently asked when asking the ghost, "Where is Wu Qiguo?" "I think this question is probably the fat man's mistake, he should have wanted to ask where Gu Moguo is, but he was excited and said the wrong thing, but we knew that Wu Qiguo was Gu Mo. Not from a historical point of view, Gumo is the country without enlightenment. By the same token, a series of guesses we have made before are correct.

I covered my head with the quilt and curled up in my heart, thinking to myself, then the last statue must be here, and I remember that the shaman's gesture at that time he was referring to the underground, so the real city is definitely underground, and the sea.

After a peaceful night's sleep, I slept until 10 o'clock, and the fat man didn't send anyone to call me. I just got dressed and walked downstairs by myself, and when I went downstairs, I saw the fat man sitting at a table in the dining room, and they surrounded the city as if they were discussing something.

I walked over and sat down, picked up a piece of flatbread and nibbled on it, "What are you talking about?" ”

"Black sand dances in the daytime. Daylight emerges in the black sand. Xie Chenhui turned his head to look at me, "Ten years ago, there was an old man here who encountered a situation in the desert, actually at that time he was trapped in a stone wall by the wind and sand, and experienced that phenomenon, and the strange thing is that not only this, but also a huge city emerged from the desert, but after coming back, the old man had a stroke, and now he has no consciousness. He would only whisper this to himself at noon every day. ”

"Ten years ago?" I took a sip of milk tea, "What about the specific time?" ”

"It was probably around July 1990! The old man's child knew that he had a stroke, but because of his poor family conditions, he was left on the street, and he had been wandering for several years, but in recent years, the government has placed him in a nursing home. ”

"22 July 1990. Hearing Xie Chenhui's words, I almost blurted out. After saying that, I hurriedly covered my mouth, incredible, this is definitely not what I am going to say. My mind was in a mess, the only thing I could think of was the time, but I didn't know how to say it myself.

As soon as I finished saying this, the whole meal stopped, and a circle of people looked at me with a strange gaze, and the fat man reacted first, he took my hand and led me to the room, "Are you crazy?" The fat man yelled on the road.

"What's wrong?"

"Don't you know that there is something about the inner ghost? Do you know what you can't say now? The fat man vented angrily at me.

Entering the room, soon Xie Chenhui and a young man also walked in. "What do you know?"

"I don't know anything!" I'm still in a cold sweat because I didn't say it, or it wasn't my thinking that dominated me when I said it, "How do you want me to explain it?" I don't know anything the fuck, can you just let me fart? Does it need to be like this? My hands were shaking, and I was yelling desperately trying to stabilize my emotions, but I was the only one who knew what was going on, and there were a lot of things that did flash through my head at that time, but none of them belonged to me.

"Ignore him, go check on me and find out what happened on July 22, 1990?"

"Is it necessary?" I held my head in pain, and I began to realize something that didn't exist but existed. But soon the young man brought by Xie Chenhui found out the results, "Something really happened to the boss." ”

"Don't talk nonsense about something." The fat man couldn't help but say.

"It was a total solar eclipse, and we found a total solar eclipse on July 22, 1990. The solar eclipse is divided into 1.0391 and lasts for 2 minutes and 33 seconds. ”

"Total solar eclipse? Black sand flies in the day, and the day emerges in the black sand? It's not 3 p.m.! I almost lost consciousness and muttered.

"3 hours, 3 minutes, 7 seconds." The man said, "This is impossible, how can you remember it so clearly, you should not be very old!" ”

"Here's the problem. I remember that I saw a book called "Strange Stories of the Western Regions" in Gan Lao's office very early on, which read: "Qiuci has a small country in the neighborhood, and everyone in its country is one-eyed, which is rare on weekdays, and the yellow sand flies and appears on the soil slope, and people wear tiger faces, wander in all directions, and then enter the sand and disappear, the name of the country is called Gumo, and it is enshrined in Qiuci." "At that time, I asked Gan Lao what was going on, and I remember that he said that this was a wild history, but combined with what the old man who had a stroke said, I think it was very likely that the old man saw Gumo."

The fat man came over to look at me but shook his head.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Did you see or remember this news?"

"It's not." I said tremblingly, not because of confusion but because of fear, the deepest fear in my heart.

"You're from '91, I've seen your file, but this thing is from '90, how do you know?" The fat man roared suddenly. "Where the fuck were you in 1990?" (To be continued......)
