Chapter Fifty-Nine: Yefeng Manor
March 10, 10:12 p.m.
Gu Xinyu and Liu Dongyue were sitting in a car.
The car was rented by Liu Dongyue from a car rental company, and the other party was also sitting in the driver's seat and driving slowly on the urban and rural roads.
For girls, most of them would have been quite concerned about this kind of supernatural thing, and the two were naturally no exception.
Although I like to watch and talk, in fact, when faced with such strange rumors and strange experiences, I just believe them and avoid them.
But given that the experience was so real and unsettling, it was as if a voice was reminding them that if they ignored it, something big could really happen......
After thinking about it, the two decided that they still wanted to go to that location.
Even if...... Just for peace of mind.
After lunch, Gu Xinyu and Liu Dongyue were temporarily separated, one went to the local temple in Fenshan to ask for two amulets, and the other went to a car rental agency to rent a car in order to leave.
On the way, Gu Xinyu felt that the eyelid of his right eye was constantly beating, and he could only keep comforting himself that he was just worrying too much, and now that he looked at it in the past, he thought that nothing would happen.
But she also knew it in her heart.
If it's just that they are overthinking, it is naturally the best, but if they are not overthinking......
Gu Xinyu couldn't help but take a few deep breaths, then opened his mobile phone to check where the vehicle had traveled at the moment, and then clicked on the page of the city forum.
Previously, through the Internet, after searching for information for a long time, the two of them learned the general location of the Yefeng Manor.
The site is part of the land owned by a developer called Shangming, which is not local to Fenshan, and would have been used for the company's planned "top-notch residential area" product line in Fenshan.
At that time, Shangming Company planned to enclose a huge piece of land in this remote suburb, and then develop manor-type residences and surrounding supporting facilities, focusing on "boutiques" rather than the number of sets, and using "landscape nature" and "European-style manor" as gimmicks to attract wealthy groups in Fenshan City to buy real estate here.
At the beginning of development, it even co-branded with a certain manor film and television work, so as to sell the relatively cheap land at a sky-high price.
But then, when the construction of the first batch of projects was almost completed, there was news that a large number of workers had disappeared one after another.
What's more, they even investigated the bottom line, and found another rumor that can be regarded as somewhat connected - a supernatural society of a certain school came to explore here during the construction stage, and then disappeared completely.
Although the company has minimized the impact of this matter through urgent public relations, it is targeting the most well-informed upper echelons.
As a result, the first batch of completed estates were immediately cold, and although the market price fell again and again, the rich people cared more than just the selling price.
So these manors have become something like the X-love robot that has been commercialized on a large scale a few years ago.
The rich don't need it, and the poor can't afford it.
And compared with the X Love Robot, which is not ridiculously expensive to recycle and scrap, the cost of the first batch of manors that have been completed in terms of demolition and abandonment is even higher than that of this extremely remote land itself.
As a result, the construction of the estates began seven years ago, and the first works were completed four years ago, before the development of other projects came to a standstill.
And now the "Yefeng Manor" that the two need to go to is located in it, which was the most gimmick at that time.
Because the top of the main building is in the shape of a door, and the location of the manor's owner's room happens to be connected with the sky and the door, so at a certain time in a specific season, when the owner is in the room, he can see a full moon placed in the door to shine, which is the "door of the night".
But it just so happened that this manor was the last place where the missing workers were seen......
Gu Xinyu closed the city forum, the relevant information, in fact, she had already read it with Liu Dongyue during the day, and at this time, she browsed again, still because of the feeling of uneasiness that sprouted faintly in her heart.
She always felt that she had to take a second look so as not to miss any crucial information.
"It's about ten minutes away."
Liu Dongyue suddenly spoke, breaking the quiet atmosphere in the car.
"Hmm...... I always felt ......"
Gu Xinyu covered his heart and silently felt his heartbeat.
"Something unsettling, isn't it? Me too. ”
Liu Dongyue nodded and took two deep breaths.
Regardless, the manor area was getting closer and clearer as it progressed, and what had been a silhouette a few minutes ago now had a faint outline.
Finally, with a foot of the brakes, the car in which the two of them were riding stopped in front of the gate of the Yefeng Manor.
Liu Dongyue parked the car not far from the gate.
Curiously, there are several vehicles of various brands and types parked in this desolate place.
But the two didn't think much about it, and immediately got out of the car and looked into the manor.
The gates of the manor are open, and although it is not yet as dusty and dilapidated as imagined due to unmaintained, it is clear that the entire Yefeng Manor has been left unattended for a long time.
Looking in from the open gate, the lawn is overgrown with weeds like some woody vine climbing up the cracked walls, covering many areas of the long path.
Gu Xinyu looked into the distance, in the main building located in the depths of the manor, and some lights were faintly lit at this time.
"That's all here...... Haven't lost the power yet? ”
Liu Dongyue also saw this situation with her eyes, and then looked at Gu Xinyu beside her with some doubts.
"I don't know, but on the way here, I saw several other manors with their doors closed, only here, as if waiting for us to arrive." Gu Xinyu bit her lip, and her tone was full of worry.
"Whatever...... Let's take a look first, at least that's it. ”
"Yes, otherwise I won't be able to sleep when I go back." After adjusting his mentality, Gu Xinyu said with a smile, "And...... You can't let Liu's car rental money go to waste, right? ”
"I hope it's in vain, spend money to eliminate disasters, and come out to make a phoenix." Liu Dongyue said and walked inward, "It's a pity that the whole thing is too strange, if I knew it earlier, I should have pulled two more boys over to strengthen my courage." ”
"Don't pull others into the water, in case it's a bad thing." Gu Xinyu said and followed.
"Well, too...... But according to our situation, I'm afraid they will want to post it even if they know this. Liu Dongyue said with a smile, "After all, this kind of thing is not the best opportunity for boys to show their spirit." ”
"As long as you have a poor mouth and concentrate on walking, there are weeds and stones everywhere, and it is not good to reach your feet."
The main building doesn't look too far away, but when you actually want to walk towards it, you feel like you're running a dead horse over the mountain.
The two walked briskly for seven or eight minutes before they reached the position near the main building, and then shrunk up at the nearby statue.
"I should have just driven the car in......"
Liu Dongyue looked at the magnificent main building in front of her, like a small castle, and couldn't help but whisper.
"It's a little more secretive, it's too ostentatious to drive in."
Gu Xinyu also poked his head out next to the statue as he spoke, and carefully probed the door,
The door is closed, but the floor-to-ceiling windows with curtains on either side of the gate are diffused with pure white light sources, forming two bright triangles on the ground in the outdoor darkness.
"Someone looks like there's inside." Gu Xinyu reminded Liu Dongyue beside him.
"Then we really don't arouse suspicion if we do this?"
Liu Dongyue looked at the figures behind the curtain that flickered from time to time, thought for a while and said:
"Maybe this manor has been bought, since there is light, even if we want to sneak in, it is not realistic, and now we urgently need to figure out the situation, it is better to be generous."
He walked out from behind the statue and walked briskly to the door.
"Huh! Month to month! ”
Gu Xinyu just wanted to drag the other party back, but Liu Dongyue's pace was too fast, so she had no choice but to come out from behind the statue and follow.
Liu Dongyue walked to the door, pressed the doorbell, and knocked gently, "Hello?" Is anyone there? ”
In the middle of the night, the two heard several pairs of footsteps coming from not far away.
The communication screen on the left side of the gate lights up, indicating that the conversation is connected.
"Who are you?"
The tone was cold, but also full of vigilance.
"That, we're ......"
The two of them were suddenly a little stuck, so they had to try to organize the language, because there was really no way to say that it was because they were waiting for the hell, and then the ghost called them to come here.
"You ...... Hell yes. ”
The voice on the communication screen was very blunt in their thoughts.
"Huh? How do you know? ”
Click-
The lock of the gate was lifted, and a man pushed the handle to open some of the gaps outward.
"Come in and talk about it." A somewhat serious male face poked out of the crack, "We...... It's the same. ”
Hearing this, Gu Xinyu and Liu Dongyue couldn't help but be surprised.
Actually...... Are they not the only ones......
