68. Reflection of ancient well
The night was hazy, and the elephant couldn't see Yunsong's eyes clearly, but he could hear the confidence in his voice.
So he gave a firm look in his eyes: "Master, you can go with peace of mind and leave the outside matters to me!"
Yun Song thought that this sentence was unlucky, then he stretched out his arms and jumped down.
There is no abnormal sound from Linghu Yuan, so there should be no problem down there.
After landing, he jumped forward and turned forward with his hands on the ground.
Simply and neatly!
It just feels furry, warm and soft when you press your hands on the ground!
He was immediately shocked.
What is this on the ground!
Then he realized again - this seemed to be Linghu Yu's fur?
He looked back under the starlight and saw Linghu Yuan lying on the ground with his tongue hanging out.
The crush just now was really hard!
Yun Song was embarrassed and quickly dragged Linghu Yun up and rubbed his body.
Linghu Yun was lucky. After he jumped down, he didn't quickly leave the wall and still stayed here. Fortunately, Yun Song held it down with his hands. If he stepped on it with his feet, the gravitational potential energy of the three-meter-high
It can definitely squeeze out its intestines!
There are houses in the yard.
The houses here have a weird shape.
They are all round and have a protrusion on the top.
It looks like a child with a braided head.
It seemed like there were many huge children's heads scattered on the ground in the yard.
This association made Yun Song couldn't help but slap his head: This is a yurt! Why do I always think about the underworld?
Linghu Yuan shrank his head and turned around to look at him in fear: What have I done again? Why are you slapping me on the head?
There are many yurt-shaped houses in the yard, some large and some small, and they look messy.
Yun Song carefully walked to a yurt on the outskirts, then he took out the shell gun in his hand and looked in through the window.
A frightened handsome face suddenly appeared on the window.
Yun Song almost shot, but fortunately he reacted quickly and realized it was his own face!
The windows of the yurt are not the wooden corrugated windows with window paper that are common in the old town, but a small window with a piece of glass inlaid in it!
This is a bit interesting.
With a layer of glass blocking it, Yunsong's view is inevitably not that good.
Moreover, this glass seems to have poor manufacturing technology, is not very clear, and has poor light transmittance.
He tried to look into the room through the glass.
There is furniture inside, mainly beds, coffee tables and chairs.
No one has lived in it for many years, and the furniture is so dusty that it is almost impossible to see its original condition. I can only barely tell that the patterns and textures on it are very complex and gorgeous, and the shape is very exotic, not something common in the Central Plains.
Yunsong probably guessed it.
The original owner of the compound came from the grasslands beyond the Great Wall.
At first glance, the room looked like no one had lived there recently. Yun Song and Linghu Yun carefully walked towards the neighboring yurt room.
This house is larger. There are no beds but only tables and chairs. There are also some dishes and dishes placed on the tables and chairs.
Yun Song was puzzled after seeing this scene clearly.
According to rumors circulating in the town, the families in the compound left in several days. If so, how could they leave behind such a meal scene?
Even if you won’t take these things with you, you should still pack them away, right?
The big stupid elephant's statement appeared in his mind: the family suddenly disappeared in the middle of the night, and then reunited after dawn.
The question is, does this family always have dinner in the middle of the night?
Who eats in the middle of the night?
With this idea in mind, Yunsong went to the next yurt.
He cautiously peeked in from the window, and as usual first saw a face on the glass.
A frightened face.
Not his face.
What a surprise!
Yun Song was about to react, but the other party reacted faster than him, and ran straight through the wall.
This is a lonely ghost!
And he is also a timid lonely ghost!
The more timid one is Linghu Yun.
It entered play-death mode just in time...
Yun Song was convinced when he saw this.
No matter what you do, just pretend to be dead in first place.
But this made him very happy that he had such a thing - compared with Linghu Yuan, he was even bolder!
Linghu Yuan opened his eyes and stuck out his tongue, his body stiffened and motionless.
Yun Song whispered: "What the hell, stop pretending, you are a lonely little ghost, I scared you away!"
Linghu Yu still remained motionless: If you don't let me pretend, I won't. Then I don't want to lose face. After all, I am also the king of Yu who once dominated a melon field!
Yunsong walked to a yurt again, but the window of this house was broken. He reached out and touched it and opened it.
Suddenly.
There was a smell of mold and smoke caused by long-term unoccupancy, and there was also some smoke from fireworks.
The night wind blew in through the window, and some things were floating scatteredly on the ground.
One piece floated to the window. Yun Song took it in his hand and dispersed it immediately.
Like the remains of burned paper.
But this place has been closed for many years. How come the burned paper is still there?
Also, what happened to the smoke from the fireworks he smelled just now? It’s even more unlikely that the smell left over more than ten years ago would remain to this day, right?
He closed the window and walked forward thoughtfully.
After taking a few steps, my calf sank.
Linghu Yun lay down.
Yun Song knew that this was a warning from Linghu Yuan, so he immediately raised his gun and looked around.
In fact, there is no need to look around.
He turned around and saw two paper figures standing in front of the window of the yurt next to him!
Pale face...
Blushing cheeks...
Dead eyes...
After noticing that he turned around, the paper man suddenly smiled crookedly and stretched out his arms stiffly to push open the window.
They're coming out!
Yunsong stepped back and glanced left and right. Paper figures appeared behind the windows of several yurts in his field of vision!
Many paper figures appeared without knowing when. They looked at him silently through the glass, and then reached out to open the door and window.
When the paper man's hand touched the door or window, a light of fire appeared behind the door and window, and then the paper man burned.
Orange fire appeared behind the glass.
There's a fire in the house!
The paper people all showed expressions of pain, and their pale bodies quickly charred, eventually turning into ashes and falling to the ground.
Now Yunsong knew where the smoke from fireworks in the house came from!
He looked around and saw that fire was coming out of almost every house, and all the paper figures inside were burned.

‘Crunch’.
A window was pushed open, and a paper figure leaned out of the window.
Yunsong looked carefully and saw that the paper man was in the same room where he opened the window just now!
It is trying hard to crawl out.
As it climbed, it raised its head and looked at Yunsong, with a stiff smile on its face.
Yunsong rushed forward, reached out and pressed its head, stuffed it in, and then closed the window with a wave of his hand.
This window is broken and a loose leaf has fallen out, so the lock is not tight.
So Yun Song lifted it up and corrected the position where it got stuck.
After the paper man was pushed back, a ferocious look appeared on his face. He got up and reached out to push the window open.
Now Yun Song could see clearly.
There are some lines engraved on the inside of the window, and these lines are even on the glass. Just now he saw that the glass was blurry and thought it was due to poor quality. In fact, there were too many small lines on the glass that affected the light transmittance.
After the paper man touched the window, these lines flashed, and it was their power that caused the paper man to burn!
After the paper figurine burned, calm returned to the courtyard.
Yunsong tentatively checked every yurt, but there were no traces of anyone living in them, or even signs that anyone had been here recently.
He went to check the grass and trees in the compound again, but found no trace of anyone's recent presence.
Finally, there was a water well in the compound. He lay at the mouth of the well and looked down.
There was calm water in the well at night, and he could faintly see his own shadow.
Still no exception.
Yunsong was puzzled.
Isn't Mr. Shenji here?
Is the information provided by Mr. Duan wrong or delayed?
He left the compound gloomily and directly opened a door and went out.
Then he discovered that the big elephant was missing!
There is nothing under the corner!
Just as he was about to get nervous, a huge human head appeared on a tree nearby: "Master, I'm here!"
It was quite scary to do this. Yun Song said: "Don't do it so suddenly next time. You almost scared Linghu Yu to death just now, and you almost killed yourself."
Linghu Yuan was actually ready to pretend to be dead, his eyes widened and his legs straightened, but the big elephant made a sound early, and it judged the big elephant's identity in time.
This way it's embarrassing.
To pretend to be dead or not to pretend to be dead, that is the question.
The big elephant laughed and jumped down from the tree. He picked up the Linghu Yuan and put it on his shoulder. He asked: "This little thing is timid. I can understand that it almost killed me, but why do you say it almost killed me?"
Own?"
Yunsong pulled up his right sleeve, while the muzzle of the shell gun was still pointed at the tree.
Beads of sweat suddenly appeared on the big elephant's forehead.
Yun Song put away his gun and said angrily: "Okay, let's withdraw. We won't gain much tonight. There is no trace of Mr. Shenji inside."
The big elephant asked: "Didn't you find anything?"
Yun Song said: "No, there is a big discovery, but it doesn't help us find Mr. Shenji."
"There are quite a few yurts outside the Great Wall. Paper figures will suddenly appear inside at midnight, but there seem to be some talismans in the yurts. Once the paper figures touch them, they will burn."
The big elephant subconsciously grinned: "It's so scary, is there anything else?"
Yunsong said: "No more, and then I saw my shadow in the well in his backyard."
The big elephant said in admiration: "The real person's eyes are so good that he can see his own shadow clearly at the bottom of the well at night."
Yun Song said: "It's just a reflection. Why can't you see clearly? That well is not very deep."
The big elephant said in surprise: "Reflection? What reflection? The well in Manzi's courtyard has long since dried up, and the pond in front of it has also dried up."
Yunsong frowned and said, "What do you mean? Why did the draft well in the backyard dry up?"
