Chapter 117: Kowloon Town Soul Bureau

Easily climbing over the courtyard wall, we opened the door in the middle.

As soon as the door opened, a choking musty smell rushed to the face, and I scanned the room, scattered littered with waste, and a thick layer of dust on it.

This kind of place, which is obviously an abandoned courtyard that has been uninhabited for a long time, what is the mystery? I frowned, looked around, and found nothing.

"I don't think there's anything unusual here, maybe Lao Youxin's appearance here is just a coincidence." Ren Yonghai said loudly.

In a few minutes, we had gone through all three rooms without finding the slightest. There was a thick layer of dust in the room, and if anything had ever happened here, it would have left some traces. But the dust was well preserved, and there were no footprints on it.

I took a closer look at the doorknob window frames, and it was the same.

In vain, we went back to the car. Only half an hour passed, and the dark and heavy clouds almost wanted to overwhelm it, and it seemed that the next moment, the heavy rain would destroy the city and crush the village.

In the wilderness, there was only one of us, and there was no one in the sight, and it seemed that there were only two of us left in the world.

"Lin Kun, what are you doing here?" Ren Yonghai asked with some curiosity.

I just mentioned to him that Xu Duobao met Lao Youxin by chance, and I took him to the cemetery, and I didn't know the cause and effect of the incident.

After I finished speaking, there was some silence in the car, and neither of us spoke.

I turned my head to look out the window, and under the gloomy sky, it was dark and dreary, like night. Especially in the cemetery on the mountainside, although I know that the tombstones that occupy the mountains are just empty tombs, under the background of this gloomy atmosphere, it seems to have become particularly gloomy.

And the small farmhouse courtyard located at the foot of the mountain, looking at it, always feels a strange feeling of being twisted.

At this moment, a silent lightning bolt suddenly swept through the sky, and in an instant, it illuminated the surrounding area where the small courtyard was located.

My eyes suddenly lit up, and some thoughts came to my mind.

I didn't care about greeting Ren Yonghai, so I pulled the car door and ran towards the hill of the cemetery.

"Hey, Lin Kun, what's the situation?"

In the sky, the thick clouds were already ready to move, a few thunderclaps sounded in the ears, and the raindrops began to drip and fall on the body.

I sprinted all the way and soon rushed to the top of the hill, where I stood and looked down. As far as the eye can see, in addition to the tombstones all over the mountain, only the small farm yard stands alone at the foot of the mountain, surrounded by strange terrain, like a huge funnel, covering the apartment, and the small courtyard is located in the eye of the entire funnel.

"You see, the location of that little courtyard doesn't look like it's going to bring things together." I pointed to the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain and said to Ren Yonghai.

Ren Yonghai looked at my fingers, and at this time, the bean-sized rain had begun to fall from the sky, filling the entire sky.

I don't know if it was an illusion or a real situation, around the small building, the rain seemed to be pulled by some inexplicable force, and twisted and fell in a strange spiral towards the small courtyard in the center of the spiral.

Even if the wind blows, it can't change the trajectory of the rain at all.

"This ...... What's going on? Ren Yonghai looked at this situation blankly, a little unclear.

I wiped a handful of rainwater, looked down and said, "Have you noticed that the layout of the entire cemetery doesn't look like a feng shui array?" ”

"I can't see it."

"The terrain here is very ordinary, and it is not a famous feng shui game, so it stands to reason that there will be nothing weird. It's just that when this cemetery was built, it was deliberately implanted with a certain feng shui pattern. I paused and continued, "If you look at the west side, is the order of the tombstones slightly different from the east side?" ”

"Seems like so."

The arrangement of the tombstones in the entire cemetery is not as neat as it seems from a distance, and when you look down from the top of the mountain, you can clearly see that there are subtle differences between different directions and columns, which seem to be built in order according to a certain formation.

"Although there are no corpses in the cemetery, there are many grave sweepers who have a gloomy atmosphere, and the purpose of this array is to gather the gloomy atmosphere of the living and a little, and that point is where the small courtyard is located."

"What is the purpose of this?"

I didn't answer directly, and continued: "Not only that, but the tombstones are just small formations, and the real big formations are in the surrounding mountainous terrain. I just looked around, there is a quarry on the east side, a golf course on the west side, and a communication tower on the south side, although there are no buildings. At first glance, it doesn't seem to be weird, but in fact, they are all built one by one according to the feng shui pattern. I can't see it on weekdays, but in such an environment, there are some trajectories in the direction of the rain. ”

Under my explanation, Ren Yonghai raised his eyes and looked around, and sure enough, he saw a curtain of rain all over the sky, which seemed to be a little different here, and the trajectory of the rain had nothing to do with the direction of the wind.

"So what kind of bureau is this?"

"Do you remember what I said about the Gossip Double Yin Dragon Tower Treasure Palace?"

"Remember, what's wrong?"

"This pattern is the same as the Bagua Shuangyin Dragon Tower Treasure Hall, except that it is a formation, and this is a feng shui pattern."

"Oh?"

"This is called the Kowloon Town Soul Bureau." I stretched out my hand and pointed to the small courtyard of the farmhouse below, and said, "The purpose of this bureau is different from that of ordinary feng shui bureaus, not to guide the qi of heaven and earth for one's own use, but to lock up the yin qi of the array and prevent it from leaking out. This rain is only pulled by the force of the eye lock, so it will not be affected by the wind and tilt to that side. ”

"Kowloon Town Soul Bureau?" Ren Yonghai took a breath of cold air and asked, "What can this feng shui bureau be used for?" ”

I stared at the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain, my face became gloomy, and I said: "This is an ancient evil art, which was originally used to build mausoleums for emperors in previous dynasties, and was later used by some people with ulterior motives to refine corpses and lock souls, which can achieve miraculous results. ”

With a "boom", a thunderclap suddenly exploded in the sky, and lightning swept by, lighting up a white light between the dim heaven and earth.

Ren Yonghai and I stood in the mountains, looking at the courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

The courtyard is still silent, but what kind of secrets are hidden under its seemingly deserted exterior?

The pouring rain poured down and drenched me, but at the moment we had no intention of caring about it. Coming down from the top of the hill, a few minutes later, we reappeared in front of the small courtyard, and in the pouring rain, the small courtyard in front of us looked a little hideous.

The front had been checked before, and we walked around the fence to the back of the compound.

At the back of the courtyard, a low tiled house was built, which looked a bit like a cowshed. At the foot of the hill where the courtyard is located, it is located in a hollow hill that is sunken inward, and the shed behind this house is completely invisible elsewhere if you don't look closer.

I opened the locked shed door and walked in, only to find that the outside looked inconspicuous, but the space inside was surprisingly spacious.

The shed was empty, there was nothing, except that in the middle of the wall, against the wall, there was a stone carved Buddha shrine, in which a Guan Gong was enshrined.

"Why is there nothing here, are you mistaken?" Ren Yonghai turned his head around and asked me with a little doubt.

I shook my head, didn't answer him, and walked over to the shrine, carefully examining every nook and cranny of the shrine. Combined with the previous signs, I have reason to believe that there must be some hidden secret in a place that we have not yet discovered.

Not to mention anything else, just this illegal shack similar to a Buddhist hall, its existence itself is very awkward. Ordinary peasant families worship Guan Gong, at least they will be enshrined in their own halls, how can there be a reason to build a shed behind the house to worship?

Be respectful and don't talk about it, but every time you go to worship a Buddha, you have to run a few more steps to the door, and come to this shack on purpose.

But where exactly is the mystery hidden?

The shack was empty, and the only thing was this Buddhist shrine, what could be hidden in such a small place? Just as I was looking at the Buddha shrine, Ren Yonghai seemed to have discovered something, he took my hand, pointed to the ground and said, "Lin Kun, look at the water on the ground, is there anything strange. ”

I looked down and saw that the shack was in disrepair, there were many gaps between the roof walls, the waterproof performance was not very good, and a lot of rainwater had seeped into the ground under the torrential rain.

Following his guidance, I immediately saw the problem, in the corner of the wall, a few blisters came out, and the rainwater that had penetrated was flowing into other places along a small gap.

This gap is so narrow that on a normal day, it is almost impossible to distinguish with the naked eye, but under the invasion of rain, a clear dividing line appears. The water is flowing downline, and it's still dry online.

The two of us looked at each other, and a thought came to our minds, and there was a tunnel underneath.

I withdrew my gaze from the gap and landed on the altar again. This look, more anomalies also emerged, although it is a Buddhist shrine, Guan Gong is still enshrined in a decent manner, but there is no incense in front of the Buddhist shrine, and not even an incense burner is placed.

Ren Yonghai stepped forward and tried to pull the Buddha shrine, but it didn't move at all, and there was no reaction. I walked back and forth around the shrine a few times, and my eyes lit up and I made a discovery.

The position of the head of this stone statue of Guan Gong seems to be smoother and more rounded than in other places, and there is no coarse sand surface that should be carved in stone.

It seems that the top of the head is often touched.

I walked to the front of the shrine, reached out and pressed the head of the statue, and tried to turn it to the sides.

The Buddha statue does not move.

I tried to press down again, but there was still no movement.

"Am I wrong?" I frowned, looked left and right, and reached behind the statue of Guan Gong again, but found nothing.

After a while, I suddenly realized that it was not possible to turn and press down, so what about lifting up? With my hand moving, I held Guan Gong's head and lifted it upwards with all my might.

There was a soft sound in the wall with a click, and then, in the corner of the room, along the previous gap, the stone slab slowly retracted into the wall, revealing a swarthy entrance.

"Sure enough, there is a doorway." I turned on my flashlight and went to the entrance to the tunnel.

The tunnel was not long, and after the steps extended seven or eight meters downward, they soon came to an end, and a wooden door stood in front of me.

The door was unexpectedly locked, which of course did not bother me, and I easily broke the lock and entered.

When I opened the door and went in, the scene in front of me made me and Ren Yonghai gasp.
