What is in front of us is a very ordinary house, made of wood, just like the wooden houses we saw before, but it looks particularly clean, and even has a sense of mystery, just like a house in our countryside.

The small temple. The area around the house has been cleaned cleanly, without a trace of weeds, and some wild flowers have even been planted. In this village where no one exists anymore, many incredible things have happened, and suddenly a strange thing appears in front of them.

Such a normal house made us feel very abnormal, and we felt nervous for no reason.

Wang Zihua asked in a low voice: "Why did you bring me here?"

I didn't reply to his question. I just felt confused and bitter in my heart again, just like when I first entered this village. Everything had changed. My mind told me that this should not be such a house. I didn't

I know why I am so eager to come here. I just feel like going home, as if there is an important person waiting for me here, but when I really face it, everything in front of me becomes so strange.

, only that strong call still exists, as if something is waiting for me inside the wooden house.

I took a step forward, and Wang Zihua grabbed me and said, "Don't go!"

Wang Zihua was a timid man, so he was probably worried about me. I broke free from his hand and said, "It's okay." Then I continued walking towards the room. Wang Zihua had no choice but to follow behind and walk up.

I stretched out my hand and was about to push open the wooden door. Suddenly the door opened on its own with a "squeak" sound. Wang Zihua and I were startled by this sudden change. Then we saw a person jumping out of the wooden house, holding a hand in his hand.

He was holding a wooden stick, and his clothes were in tatters, and it was hard to tell what color he was. At first glance, he looked a bit like Wang Zihua, whom I first saw in Fengmen Village, Henan.

It was already dusk at this time, and I couldn't tell how old this man was in my haste. I could only see the ferocious look on his face. When he saw the two of us, he suddenly waved the wooden stick in his hand, and at the same time said something in his mouth.

A strange cry.

Wang Zihua and I were so frightened that we turned around and ran away. When the man saw that we were far away, he did not chase us out. He held a wooden stick in front of the house and stared at us, as if nothing would happen as long as we did not get close to the wooden house.

Wang Zihua and I stopped and crouched down and slowly moved closer, gradually seeing the wooden house and the weird man clearly. I squatted in front, Wang Zihua was next to me, and I was thinking about how to enter the wooden house. Suddenly

I felt Wang Zihua's body tremble, so I didn't turn around and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

Wang Zihua shivered more and more, grabbed my shoulders with both hands, and said, "No. 46, it's No. 46!" What was in his voice was not fear, but excitement.

I turned around and asked, "What is No. 46?" Wang Zihua couldn't hide his excitement. He pointed at the weirdo and said, "He is No. 46, and after No. 46 is No. 47."

!”

All the blood in my body rushed to my brain, and I immediately thought of the nonsense he told me when he was still digging in that field: before seventy-three, there is seventy-two, and before seventy-two, there is seventy-one. Combined with his current situation

To put it bluntly, how could I not know that the strange people in this room must be related to those mysterious things that I don't understand?

I didn’t care how Wang Zihua remembered this person, so I shouted and rushed towards No. 46. No. 46 was obviously frightened by my actions. Although he was holding a wooden stick in his hand, he was frightened.

With a loud shout, he threw the stick to the ground, turned around and ran up the mountain. I ran after him. Wang Zihua's memory was a bit baffling and he couldn't remember what happened before. Maybe he could recognize No. 46 this time.

It was already a miracle. Naturally, I couldn't let him go. This was the only hope I could hold on to at the moment. Wang Zihua kept calling me from behind. I didn't have time to look back, so I just shouted: "Go to the cabin."

have a look."

If there was someone inside, they would have run out long ago after hearing my scream. Since no one has come out until now, it can be seen that there should be no one hiding inside, and it is very safe for Wang Zihua. Anyway, this forty-year-old

No. 6 cannot be allowed to get lost from my eyes. With this thought in mind, I stared at the figure in front of me, gritting my teeth and chasing after him. The branches bounced past my eyes from time to time, causing my face to hurt, but my eyes

He didn't dare to blink for fear of accidentally losing No. 46. The weeds and trees here were very tall and dense, and it would be difficult to find him if he got lost.

No. 46 seems to be very familiar with this area. If I hadn't been physically strong, he might have escaped long ago. The back of No. 46 is getting closer and closer to me. I just need to take a few more steps to get there.

After catching up, there was only a scream. No. 46 jumped forward, and then heard a muffled sound, as if it had hit something, and then there was no more sound.

I hurriedly caught up and saw No. 46 lying motionless on the ground in front of me. I stepped forward and turned him over and helped him up. I couldn't help but let out a low cry. His whole face was full of tears.

There was blood, there was a hole in his forehead, and blood came out from time to time. In the area opposite his face where he originally leaned over, there was a large stone with a sharp protrusion at one end.

I hurriedly took out a handkerchief and applied it to his wound, and shouted loudly: "Tell me quickly, where is that place?" I shouted so loudly that I was afraid that he would never hear it again, and No. 46's eyes stared blankly.

He looked at me, suddenly grabbed my hand and said: "Go quickly, go quickly!"

I couldn't help but be overjoyed when I heard that No. 46 could speak. I grabbed his shoulders desperately and said, "Tell me quickly, where is that place?" No. 46 seemed to have not heard what I said and looked at him with his eyes.

The sky is still repeating the words: "Go quickly, go quickly!"

Suddenly his body twitched, he sat up, hugged me, and his bloody face faced me. At that moment, I saw a kind of extreme fear in his eyes, and he yelled hoarsely.

He shouted: "Pahu!"

This is the second time I heard the word Pahu. The first time was when Wang Zihua told me that the two characters on the mural read "Pahu", but he didn't remember what it meant. I shook my head desperately.

Looking at No. 46, his body fell softly, and he could not say a word again. In the end, I still couldn't get the whereabouts of that place from his mouth, and I didn't know what this Pahu meant.

After putting down the body of No. 46, I no longer had the strength to dig a place to bury him. Facing a corpse, the fear in my heart immediately surged up. I shouted Wang Zihua a few times, turned around and

I was running down the mountain when I suddenly stumbled and almost fell. I instinctively looked down and saw that the grass in front of me was tied into several knots, which is where I tripped just now.

Judging from the technique, these grass knots are obviously artificially made. The knotted areas have not completely dried. They should be the trippers that were just made not long ago. I couldn't help but shudder, as if I felt that there was a

A huge conspiracy was waiting for me, and I felt unspeakable fear in my heart. At this moment, I heard a noise behind me, and turned around quickly, only to see a figure running forward quickly into the grass. I quickly

He chased after him, but the figure ran so fast that he disappeared after just a few steps.

I yelled Wang Zihua a few more times, and then he rushed up panting. When he saw No. 46, he couldn't help shouting, pointing at me with a look of disbelief on his face. I shook my head and said

: "I didn't do it." Wang Zihua patted his chest, exhaled, and said, "I was scared to death."

I pointed at Cao Jie and told him exactly what happened on the 46th, hoping to evoke some of Wang Zihua's memories. Unfortunately, he still couldn't remember anything after thinking about it for a long time.

No. 6 only instinctively thought of it the moment she saw him. Now she couldn't think of anything else about him, her mind was empty.

I sighed and had no choice but to give up my extravagant hopes. I knelt down and carefully inspected the bodies of Kusanagi and No. 46, and then said, "This is murder."

Of course I'm not explaining anything to Wang Zihua, but in such an environment, I always feel unspeakably depressed. I hope someone can talk to me, even just listen to me, at least it won't feel so so.

Lonely and scared.

I looked at the grass knots. The grass knots were very strong. The stone stained with the blood of No. 46 obviously did not match the surrounding environment. Moreover, the distance between the grass knots matched so well. This person

He must be very familiar with the height of No. 46, and he could only set up such a trap during the period of time when I was chasing No. 46. He could arrange everything so perfectly in such a short time. This person's

The horror is beyond our imagination.

Who is that person hiding in the grass? What is Pahu? Why does No. 46 want me to leave quickly? Why does someone want to kill No. 46? My head hurts violently again, so many puzzles, I

But I don't know how to solve it at all.

Wang Zihua and I covered the body of No. 46 with grass. Everything here made me feel scared. This fear was different from the strange things I saw in Fengmen Village before. At least I still knew what I was doing.

What, I took the initiative to look for everything, but now I don’t even know how I got here.

When I walked into the wooden house at the foot of the mountain, it was just a decoration similar to a shrine and an altar table. There were no people. In fact, I already knew that if there was someone here, Wang Zihua would definitely tell me immediately.

There are several bouquets of flowers on the table. They are wild orchids, which are very fragrant and familiar. In that hypnotic world, my mother would go to the mountains every August to pick some of these wild orchids and put them at the door.

I thought she liked orchids, so I bought her a few plates, but she didn't take care of them. At this time of year, she would still go to the mountains to pick some orchids and come back. I asked more questions, but she still said nothing.

He said, just touch my hair, look at me and smile. Seeing this orchid again, I thought of my mother again, and felt sour. Suddenly, I thought of my mother's eyes. When she looked at me, not only

There is only kindness and even a hint of guilt.

I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I think so much at once. It’s just a world in hypnosis, just like Huang Liang’s dream. Although at the end the doctor who looks very similar to Henry Zhang said that I wrote the story of "Old House"

Yes, but I have no impression. My clone once told me that the doctor was arranged by him in order not to let me know the real secrets in "The Old House". In this way, "The Old House" should not be me.

The clone may know what he wrote, but he won't say anything.

I shook my head and tried my best to get those messy thoughts out of my mind. I looked up at the statue on the shrine. It was a very strange statue. All the organs on the face were blurred and I couldn't see what it was.

It can only be vaguely seen that she is a young woman. Judging from her clothing, she looks like a modern person. She is holding a baby in her hands. The baby looks even weirder. The head is surprisingly big, and the hands are

There are seven fingers and two feet glued together. Although the statue of the woman is blurry, the statue of the baby is extremely clear and lifelike.

I looked at the statue, then looked back at Wang Zihua. He shook his head and said, "Don't ask me, at most I just think this is the Guanyin who gives birth to children." Then he muttered in a low voice: "It's so deformed.

I wouldn’t give my child to anyone, the people here are really strange.”

I ignored Wang Zihua and still looked at the statue blankly. Although it was so blurry, it seemed to be very close to her and I could see it very clearly. I stared blankly until Wang Zihua urged me to

Going back, I knew he was a little scared. It was getting dark now. Originally, I should have stayed here overnight, but I thought there was a body of No. 46 not far away, and another one hidden in the

We really couldn’t muster the courage to see the mysterious man in the dark, so we rushed outside the mountain overnight. It was a bit confusing when we arrived, and it was even more difficult when we returned. Fortunately, this Wang Zihua had extremely rich experience in outdoor sports.

Seeing that I was weird, I kept leaving various marks along the way. The two of them stayed up all night and finally found the way down the mountain.

After coming down the mountain, the two of them found a hotel and slept until noon the next day. When I woke up, I couldn't help laughing so hard that my whole body was shaking. Wang Zihua was frightened when he saw me like this, thinking that I

What's wrong? I tried my best to say "no", but I didn't tell him the reason. Only I knew that I suddenly stopped having that strange dream. I had never slept so comfortably in such a long time.

After seeing that nothing happened after I laughed for a while, Wang Zihua gradually relaxed and said he wanted to go out to buy something to eat. As he said this, he walked out. You can't mention the hospital in front of Wang Zihua, otherwise he will yell like this

Those people wanted to come over to arrest him, which was normal, and he wasn’t afraid to walk outside alone, so I didn’t say much, handed him fifty yuan, and asked him to bring some for me. I wanted to stay in the room.

Keep a diary.

Wang Zihua agreed and turned around and walked out. At this moment, I suddenly found that he looked a little weird. Every move he made seemed to me slower than before, and the sound he made with every step was so loud.

, as if he was stomping on the floor with a deliberately increased pace. Watching him walk out slowly, my heart became inexplicably nervous again.

After having a quick bite to eat, I used the computer in the room to look up the village we were going to. After working hard for several hours, I actually found some useful things. The village was called Gexizhai, which was different from Fengmen Village.

The village actually exists. The people in the village are their own tribe. They are located deep in the mountains and rarely interact with outsiders. Today, when ethnic minorities are generally Sinicized, it is rare that they still retain their own culture. However, about 30 years ago,

Recently, all the people in Gexi Village suddenly moved out. The specific reason is unknown. The government once sent people to investigate, but there was no result. In addition, Gexi Village is located deep in the mountains and there is no economic benefit to develop. Therefore, this

The village gradually became deserted, and the name of this place was missing from the new map.

Wang Zihua looked at me and said, "There are no valuable clues."
