- , Daoist, times have changed
After bidding farewell to old man Tianji, the few of them quickened their pace to the northwest corner of Qingkou.
Xiafei Alley is easy to find.
There are many Dongying people gathered in the whole Qingkou, and every alley is full of people, only one alley here in the northwest corner is deserted.
Yun Song and the others walked in, and the sun was shining brightly in broad daylight, but the sun did not shine into this alley, so that even though the sun was shining, it was still cold inside.
This is an old alley, the road paved with rough bluestone is fairly flat, but it is wet, with a lot of moss growing on it, so that it is a bit slippery to step on.
The walls on both sides are old, the doors and windows of the houses are all closed, the gates are locked, and the iron locks are rusty.
It seems that this place has been abandoned for many years.
There are trees in the yard of the house.
The branches of the trees stick out, and because of the late autumn season, the branches and leaves are withered, and after sticking out dryly, they are shaken weakly by the wind.
Like a dying old man shaking his arms.
Yun Song took a look and shook his head: "This is not a good place."
Hu Jinzi asked: "Brother, do you see anything?"
Yun Song said: "You may not know, but I also have a rough knowledge of Feng Shui."
He pointed to the houses on both sides and continued: "Look at the houses here, do you know what this house is called?"
After looking at it carefully, the big elephant said, "I feel similar to our Shikumen."
Yun Song waved his hand: "It's too small."
"What's too small?"
"The pattern is small." Yun Songyu said earnestly, "You can't just look at the surface of things, you have to look at the context."
"The house here seems to be the same as the place we rented, but it's actually different. It's called the House of Tears!"
"There is a good saying in the art of geomantic omen. There is a house of tears at home, and we cry once a year. I don't need to explain the meaning of this sentence to you, do I?"
Big Stupid Elephant said: "Accidents happen every year?"
Yun Song nodded: "Yes."
The big stupid elephant asked in confusion: "But why is this room called the House of Tears?"
Yun Song took two steps back, crossed the wall and looked inside: "Look at the eaves, the roof is herringbone, right? Once it rains, the rainwater drips down the roof, does it look like someone is crying?"
Hu Jinzi said: "But we all have houses like this in Nagada in the northeast, are they all houses of tears?"
Yun Song said: "Don't worry, let me finish!"
He took a good look at the memories left by Ah Wu, and then organized his words and said: "The roof of ordinary houses is also like this, but it is not called the House of Tears. Why?"
"First of all, the name of the Teai House is focused on a 'Drip', and the dripping water is called a tear."
"It doesn't matter much in other places. The weather in Shanghai is humid, and water vapor gathers on the roof all year round, so there is no need for rain. In normal times, water vapor gathers in one place and falls, ticking all year round!"
Hu Jinzi shook his head and said, "That's not such an exaggeration. I lived in Shanghai for a while before, and there wasn't so much rain."
Yun Song said displeasedly: "I'm talking about water vapor, not rain! Once it rains, it doesn't just tick-tock, it just flows."
"Usually, the water vapor here is too strong, and they will drip down after they gather. Before they become water droplets, the water vapor falls down tick-tock, so this is called Feng Shui¡ª¡ªFeng Shui is not just a matter of appearance, but more importantly, it is a matter of seeing. Its veins!"
"You are shallow." He pointed to Hu Jinzi.
The big stupid elephant asked: "What's shallow?"
Yun Songyu said earnestly: "It's too shallow!"
"Okay, don't interrupt me and continue."
"There are so many houses in Shanghai, and the local water vapor is abundant. Are they all houses of tears?"
"No!"
"The House of Tears also depends on the layout. Its specific shape and layout are that the windows of a big house are connected to a small house."
"As the saying goes, there is a small room under the big eaves, the big eaves are dripping with water, and the small room is called the teardrop room, and the father will cry and the child will cry for the mother!"
The big stupid elephant nodded suddenly.
Yun Song asked: "Do you understand?"
The big elephant said: "Understood, real man, the house we rented is also a teardrop room, absolutely, I have the impression that the shape of the house is very similar to this."
Yun Song really didn't notice this, it was already dark when they rented the house last night, and he went out early this morning to find Daqiao Shouxin.?The parchment was put away.
'All secrets, tell at night'.
This sentence is a bit interesting.
He packed up the parchment and went to find the door to the basement. He opened the wooden door, and there was a faint smell in the basement, a smoky smell.
It seems that someone burned things down there, and the burning time was quite long, so that the smoky smell was still there for at least two years.
Seeing this Yunsong went to other houses to see.
Every house actually has a basement, but other basements are sealed.
All the basements smelled of fire, had burned things, left thick ash.
Some of the ashes still had incompletely burned things. Yun Song rummaged around and found paper, cloth, and bamboo slips.
Tian Fang looked disappointed after seeing the bamboo slips: "These are all things we brought out from Xianyang. Master Xu Fu regards them as treasures, so how could he burn them?"
There is no answer.
The discoveries of this trip to Xia Fei¡¯s alley were a parchment and a gramophone.
Yun Song is full of expectations for this parchment.
The above information is very mysterious.
Some secrets are recorded in the parchment.
So he waited patiently for the night to come.
After that, the big stupid elephant came to him in a hurry: "My real man, don't practice now, come with me quickly, take a look at our basement here, it's a bit weird."
Yun Song asked casually: "There is also a basement in this house?"
The big elephant said: "Yes, our house is the same as the one in Xiafei Alley, so when I saw that there is a basement there, I wondered, do we have one here?"
"Sure enough! It really exists here, and this basement is weird!"
The basement door opened, and Yun Song jumped down.
'Boom'!
All of a sudden, the giant elephant closed the basement door on top!
Yun Song's heart skipped a beat.
What does big elephant mean?
The heart of defense is indispensable, he rolled over and lay dormant on the ground as soon as he landed, assuming a posture of a hungry tiger descending the mountain.
This posture is exquisite, you can jump up and jump at the sheep when you advance, or roll on the lazy donkey on the ground when you retreat!
Then a flashlight was turned on.
The light shone on him.
Hu Jinzi asked in astonishment: "Brother, what kind of look do you have?"
Yun Song felt like an idiot at this moment!
He stood up silently and asked, "What do you and the big elephant mean?"
The voice of the big elephant came through the door panel: "Really, use your flashlight to look around, take a look, where does this place look like?"
Hu Jinzi turned on the flashlight.
Under the dim light, Yun Song saw a familiar room.
The space is a bit cramped, with elegant decorations inside, altars around, talismans plastered on the walls, paper money and yellow table paper scattered on the ground, and a hanging curtain.
It is the scene in the dream!
Yun Song strode up and opened the curtain.
There is no big red coffin here.
Hu Jinzi asked: "Did you go to such a place in your dream?"
Yun Song nodded.
When he saw that there were no doors and windows in the house, he subconsciously thought of the tomb.
However, buildings without doors and windows around are not only tombs, but also basements!
Hu Jinzi said again: "Do you know why I turned off the flashlight just now?"
Yun Song said in a deep voice, "You want to scare me."
Hu Jinzi was stunned and said, "How could you guess my purpose?"
Yun Song was also stunned.
He is joking!
In the end, Hu Jinzi really laughed: "I was teasing you, how could I want to scare you, but brother, I didn't say that, you looked so funny just now."
He threw the flashlight to Yunsong, and then imitated Yunsong's posture and squatted on the ground.
Yun Song felt that this posture was really stupid.
Hu Jinzi jumped up again and said with a smile: "I just turned off the flashlight just now to calm myself down, and then I went to listen carefully to the movement in this room. Brother, listen carefully, can you try to hear a strange sound?"
After being reminded by him, Yun Song did hear a strange sound behind his ears:
"Bang, bang, bang"
"Bang, bang, bang"
The sound is very light, faint, and it has a sense of regularity, like¡ª¡ªlike the sound of a heartbeat!
Hearing this sound, Yun Song stuck to the ground.
The sound is less obvious.
It was only faintly heard when he listened to the basement space.
It's the sound of a heartbeat!
Yun Song saw the basement wall and stuck it against the wall to listen.
The heartbeat was muffled.
Instead, a new sound appeared, like a very slight, very slight sound of running water; The sound is very light, faint, and it has a sense of regularity, like¡ª¡ªlike the sound of a heartbeat!
