Chapter 11 Part Five: Strange House

That path is very secluded, except for a few dogs lying lazily on the side of the road, there is no one there, so I can easily feel that there is someone following me, and I also know that it is Who is it, that is the passenger in the same car as me. After thinking about it for a while, I deliberately slowed down. When the man caught up with me, I turned my head: Excuse me, which way do I take to get to Yungang? The man nodded, looked at me with very curious eyes, and then said: You are a stranger, what are you doing in such a small place? I smiled wryly and spread my hands: There is no other way. I have a distant relative who owns a farm. I want to find something to do. I can have three meals and one night, and my heart is enough!

The man said: What kind of farm is your dear? I was stunned for a while, and I only remembered that there were a few farms in Yungang, all of which were small and poorly equipped. As for the names of those farms, I couldn't tell at all. I had no choice but to say vaguely: I can't say it, it seems to be called something. The man said: Hanji, or Xingji? I said by the way: By the way, it seems to be Xingji. The man hummed, nodded, and kept silent. I walked forward side by side with him. When we gradually saw a few houses in front of us, he pointed to a small path: I am from Baoji Bee Garden. , come and sit when you have time!

I broke up with him and watched him go to the path. After a while, he turned a corner, and a clump of bamboo covered my sight, and I couldn't see him anymore. I continued to walk forward, and before I came to those houses, there were six or eight village children playing in the open space in front of the houses. There must be very few strangers coming to such a remote place, so when I appeared, those village boys stopped playing and looked at me. Among these few rooms, there would never be the target I was looking for, so I continued to walk forward.The path became narrower and narrower, and I passed several farms, including Han Kee Farm and Xing Kee Farm, but I didn't go in either.Going forward again, the path slopes down to the sea.

When I came to the beach, I suddenly saw a bungalow in an open space. The appearance of that bungalow is also very ordinary. It is a common suburban villa, but it is built in such a remote place, but it can't help giving people a sense of abruptness. I looked at it for a long time and decided to go and have a look. However, on the beach, it seemed that there was no way to go forward. I saw some children on the beach picking up shells. I walked up to them and asked: I want to go to the house, how should I go? which way? A girl looks up at the house: there is no road to go here. I laughed and said: Then, don't people in this house want to come in and out?

The girl laughed innocently, and another older child said, "Across Baoji Beekeeping Garden, there is a road leading to that house. You are going the wrong way." I hurriedly said: Thank you, I know Po Kee Bee Farm. I turned around and turned back, passed those farms and houses again, and came to the intersection. I walked towards the path, and it was very quiet along the way. I turned a few turns, and on both sides of the path less than two feet wide, there were clumps of bamboos, with bamboo branches sticking out, so I had to keep pushing aside the bamboo branches. Only then can I continue to walk forward. When the bamboo leaves are touched by me, they make a rustling sound. The mood is really good, but unfortunately I am not in the mood to appreciate it.

After walking not far, I saw Bao Kee Bee Garden.The so-called bee garden is just a few houses and an open space. On the open space, rows of beehives are neatly arranged, and the door is closed. I came to the door, opened the door and walked in. At that time, I could see it from another angle to the house. What I saw was the front of the house, and there was indeed a road that could go through the house, and the beginning of the road seemed to be by the beach, without any connection with any road.This is really a strange thing. I went into the apiary and could hear nothing but the buzzing of the bees.

I walked forward, and to pass through the bee garden, I had to pass through those houses. Just as I was passing through those houses, I heard a creaking sound, someone pushed open the door, and a person poked his head out. That man was the one who had traveled with me, and he looked at me: You have not found any relatives? I had no choice but to say: Yes, he went out of the city and didn't come back, so I just walked around. The man said: "Come in and have a seat." This bee garden has been here for many years, and it seems that the man has lived here for a long time, so I might as well ask him about the situation of the house first, so I nodded, said polite words, and walked in.

There was a smell of honey in the room, and there were two honey mixers. It seemed that the man was working when I passed by, because honey was still dripping from one of the mixers. I sat down, chatted casually for a while, and said: When I came last time, I didn't seem to see a bungalow! The man said: Yes, it started only last year. I said: Who lives in it?It's weird how rich people like to live in places like that! The man nodded and said: Yes, it's really weird, we don't know who lives in this house, but people come in and out all the time, and the owner of the house has a big yacht, he seems very rich.

I said again: Has anyone approached that house? The man shook his head and said: Who dares to go?They have a lot of wolfdogs, and the dogs bark before people get close, as if we are going to steal things as soon as we get close, that's what rich people do! I smiled and said: I'm not afraid of dogs, anyway, I have nothing to do, maybe they want to hire a gardener, I can also take the dog for them! The man was a little disapproving, but he only said lightly: You might as well try your luck. I stood up, very happy in my heart, because from the man's mouth, I was sure that this house was really weird. There was no doubt that it would satisfy my curiosity. More likely, the house It is the headquarters of this group of people.

I sat for a while longer, said good-bye to the man, and walked through the bee garden and across a field full of weeds to the road. Standing on the road leading directly to the house from the sea, I feel that the house is beyond words. The road stretches upwards obliquely, and it looks very grand. At the intersection close to the sea, there is a concrete pier. It is a dead end that is not connected to any other road, except for the people on the pier, which lead directly to the house. , has no other use. I was walking up the side of the road, and the slope of the road was quite high, so I had to bend over and walk up. Naturally, there would be no other people on such a road.

When I came to the house, about a hundred and fifty yards away, I heard dogs barking, and at the same time, I saw seventeen or eight wolfhounds rushing out together from the big iron gate of the house. , most of the wolfhounds stood upright, with their front paws pressed against the iron gate, barking wildly. That burst of dog barking sounded really soul-stirring. I stayed for a while, and continued to walk forward. The more I walked, the more urgent the barking of the dogs became, but no one came out. I stopped only three or five yards away from the iron gate. The expressions of those wolfhounds became even more ferocious, with their white teeth bared, barking wildly. If there wasn't a door between me and them, they would definitely rush out and tear me apart. However, even though there was a door separating me, I felt timid and didn't dare to go any further. However, although the wolfdog barked earth-shatteringly, no one in the house came out to look at it.Naturally, I couldn't get any news from the mouth of the wolf dog, so I had no choice but to move forward. When I came closer to the iron gate, all the wolf dogs inside the gate seemed to be crazy. , then kept pounced upwards, trying to jump out of the iron gate. Looking at their condition, they really don't look like a pack of dogs, but a pack of hungry wolves.I took a breath and called out: Anyone? I yelled as loud as I could, but my yelling was completely lost in the barking of the dogs. I yelled again, but still no one came. At this time, I saw a wolf dog that was almost able to climb out of the iron gate. I quickly backed away. That wolf dog stood taller than me. Even if there was only one wolf dog, it would not be easy for me to deal with it. I retreated about ten yards, left the road, stepped up the hill, and then turned to the wall. I turned to the wall, and the pack of wolfhounds also left the iron gate, and turned inside the wall, barking. I deliberately ran along the wall, and the group of dogs followed me running back and forth inside the wall, barking. I was thinking, if no one came out of that room under such circumstances, then there must be no one in this room, and if there is no one in the room, then I naturally have to make another plan. I ran back and forth for more than ten minutes, and then returned to the iron gate. The pack of wolf dogs chased after me. At this moment, I saw two people coming out of the house. The garden of the house was quite large, and when the two men came out of the house, I couldn't see their faces clearly, but judging from the way they walked, the two must be very angry. As soon as those two people came out, the pack of wolf dogs ran back, and those two people came to the iron gate. Sure enough, they looked angry, and when they saw me, they shouted loudly: What are you doing? I secretly laughed in my heart, it was a bit too mischievous for me to do that, but other than that, I had no way to lure the people in the room to come out. At this time, although the other party was annoyed, I greeted him with a smile: I'm sorry for disturbing you two, do you want to hire a gardener or some handyman? The two men shouted in unison: Get out, get out! I widened my eyes and said deliberately: Where are you from?What are you talking about?People can only walk, who will roll? One of those two pointed at me: are you going?If you don't leave, I will open the door and let the dogs chase you! I hurriedly shook my hands: go, I'm going, sorry, but just come to ask, please don't be angry! Seeing how ferocious those two guys are, they might have let the dogs out to chase me, I said as I backed away, then turned around and sprinted forward, and ran into the bee garden in a flash. I walked into the bee garden panting, and the person who had talked with me for a while greeted me: how is it?I heard dogs barking, I've advised you not to go! I smiled bitterly and said: You are right, I saw two people in the room, alas, these two people are more fierce than dogs. The man laughed out loud when he heard what I said, and I took the opportunity to leave. An hour later, I was back in the urban area. When I was scared away by those two people, I had already made up my mind to come back at night. I'm sure there's something odd about that house, and nine times out of ten it's what I'm looking for.I was unprepared during the day, and when I came at night, I could have enough ways to deal with the pack of wolf dogs. When I got home, I was busy for a long time. There is a kind of spray, after spraying on people, it can temporarily disappear the smell of people, even if the nose is as sensitive as a hunting dog, it can't smell it out. I brought five cans of this spray, a set of equipment for climbing walls, and a set of equipment for climbing walls. A small gun with a handle that can fire a strong anesthetic. That kind of gun shoots out a stainless steel barrel like a syringe, which can quickly inject a strong anesthetic into the target being shot.Originally, I rarely used this kind of thing, but when I thought of the pack of wolf dogs, I had to be more careful. I also took a small infrared camera with me so that I could photograph something odd if I saw it.I also wear a pair of infrared glasses that allow me to see in the dark. When I prepare everything, I am afraid that the first-class international spies are equipped with nothing more than this. I didn't start until it was dark, and I still took a car to enter the suburbs. Then, I walked on the small road. Walking on the small road at night, I felt a sense of mystery. There were many dogs barking along the way, and I arrived at a clearing. Get down, take out the spray, spray it from head to toe, and don't stop until I've sprayed three cans. When I walk forward again, I can't afford the dog to bark. I came to the gate of the bee garden, climbed over the heavy fence, and walked out of the bee garden without disturbing anyone. After a while, I had already stepped on that road. I looked up and saw that the garden of the house was dark, and there were lights from the top and bottom of the house. Judging from the degree of light exposure, almost every window in this house had thick curtains. I was very nervous. Although I had prevented the dog from smelling strangers, the wolfdog's senses were extremely keen, as long as there was a slight sound, it could detect something different. I slowed down and walked forward. When I was about ten yards away from the iron gate, I heard a wolf dog's uneasy sound from inside the gate, but the wolf dog hadn't barked yet. It's like a spray. I slowed down my steps and walked a few steps closer. I still followed the day route and went up the hillside. When I got to the wall, I listened carefully to the movement inside the wall and heard the wolfdogs walking back and forth. sound. I walked forward along the wall until I came to the back of the house. The wolfhound inside the wall didn't seem to come with me. I paused for a while before taking out the set of climbing equipment. The set of equipment was not large, but when pulled apart, it turned out to be a ladder twelve feet long and capable of carrying a load of one hundred and sixty pounds. I hooked the hook at the top of the ladder to the wall, and climbed up carefully step by step. Halfway through the climb, I stopped for a while and put on my infrared glasses. After a while, my head was already sticking out of the wall. . I could see that behind the house was a large open space, all concrete, almost nothing, just an open space. On that open space, there were four or five wolfhounds lying scattered around. I took out the small gun. If I wanted to climb into the wall, I had to deal with those wolf dogs first. I pulled the trigger again and again. After being shot, the five dogs stood up straight and tried to stand up, but They stood halfway and fell down. Before any other dogs came to the back of the house, I immediately turned over, fell to the ground, and quickly ran to the back door, standing with my back against the door. There was no sound in the room, but there was a light coming out from the crack of the door, which made me hesitate. With so many battles coming here, I naturally wanted to go in and have a look, but there was light in the room, how could I steal it? have to go in? I waited for a while, then turned the handle lightly, and there was an extremely slight click, but the door was not locked. With extremely slow movements, I opened the door a crack, put the glasses on my forehead, and looked inside. After seeing the situation inside, I couldn't believe my eyes. In a normal house, the back door like this is mostly the kitchen, or the place where the servants rest and work, but at this time, I looked in and saw that it was a very large room, and there was nothing in that room except the white There is nothing beyond the walls! It is precisely because the walls are all white up and down, so it is particularly bright from the perspective of light. Under such circumstances, if I walked into this room, it would be like walking naked in a busy city, with no room for concealment! I stayed for a while, not deciding what to do. At this moment, I heard a slap, and a door inside opened, and a person walked out from the door. I only opened the door a crack, and I can only see the situation inside. Unless the person comes to the door to check, it is not easy for him to find someone outside the door, and if I close the door, it will attract the attention of the person up. A very handsome young man came out from the inner door. At that time, I couldn't help thinking, what is there to do alone in an empty room?This is really an interesting question. And the question in my heart was answered immediately. I saw the young man came to the wall on the left. The wall was covered with white square tiles, clean and white, without any dust. The young man came to the wall and stroked the tiles with his hand. When his hand stopped, a tile bounced off. Seeing this, I opened my mouth in surprise and couldn't close it, but what happened next made me even more dumbfounded! The young man reached out to his collar, groped for a while, and took out a round ring. That ring! This is the third time I have seen that kind of ring, and now, I also have such a ring on my body. I saw the young man bring the ring close to the wall, and I couldn't see what he was doing because it was covered by the bounced tile. But I immediately remembered the words of the director of the research office. He said that this ring is a highly sophisticated magnetic key. Then, it is conceivable that there must be a hole behind the tile, and the young man is using this ring. , what is turning on. I held my breath, and saw that the young man had withdrawn his hand. A part of the wall, which was three feet wide and seven feet high, stepped back and moved two feet away. Immediately return to the original place, the secret door is extremely ingenious, after it is closed, no trace can be seen. I took a deep breath, what should I do?I did find what I was looking for, but now, what do I do? The most appropriate way, of course, is to retreat immediately and bring a large number of police officers with Jack. But it would take a lot of time, and I couldn't wait, so I pushed open the door and walked in. I already knew that it was not safe for me to go into that room, but I never imagined that my situation would be so embarrassing. As soon as I walked in, the door inside opened at just the right time. As soon as the door opened, a man came out and happened to meet me face to face. Anyone can imagine the scene at that time. In an empty but brightly lit room, I sneaked in, and as soon as I sneaked in, I met the people in the room head-on, and I couldn't make any concealment at all! As it happened so suddenly, I stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do. Naturally, I stood still for a short time, just a few seconds. During those few seconds, my muscles stiffened and I thought about how to deal with it. Before I could think of anything, that person had already reacted.In such an empty room, I saw that person, and that person naturally also saw me. He first showed a very surprised expression, and then he asked: Are you new here?I have no other choice, he asked me this way, I had to follow his question to answer.But at that moment, I was too nervous to make a sound, so I nodded. To my surprise, I just nodded, and the man was satisfied. He stopped asking me and walked towards the wall. At that time, I already had a good opportunity to exit the door, but I didn't want to leave, because since that person didn't have any doubts about me, then I could stay here and watch what he did.This idea came out of the blue. I decided to do that at the time, but it was just a natural result of the situation at that time. I didn't have the opportunity to think about it, and I couldn't think of the consequences. It doesn’t matter whether my thought was a mistake or a success, in short, if I had taken the opportunity to leave the door at that time, then everything would be different in the future, but I decided to stay in the room and see what that person did. I saw the man come to the wall, and like the young man just now, he broke a tile. As I expected, behind the tile is a flat stainless steel plate with a seam, and the man has already taken out the ring from the collar. When he took out the ring, he turned his head and looked at me: what are you waiting for? I don't know what he meant by that, but I couldn't stand still under the circumstances, so I had to adapt, and I went forward, taking out the ring too. I can be sure that each of them has such a ring. Since that person thinks that I am their own, then I can strengthen his confidence by taking out the ring. Sure enough, when the man saw me take out the ring, the only suspicion on his face disappeared, and he smiled at me: Please first! This made me stunned again, he actually became polite with me, he told me to go first, what should I do first?Should I open the secret door first and walk in?I once witnessed a person inserting a ring into the crack, and a secret door opened on the wall. At this time, the person must have meant this. However, that is very puzzling. Why didn't this person open the secret door and invite me in together? In that situation, I really couldn't think much about it, so I had no choice but to walk forward and at the same time say: You come first. The man shook his head and said: No, I have only arrived not long ago, and I am not in a hurry to go back, you should go first! When I heard the man say this, I couldn't help being surprised, go back?what does that mean?Where will I go after opening this door? I was surprised in my heart, but kept my movements natural, bit the bullet, and inserted the ring into the gap of the stainless steel plate on the wall. As I did that, my hands were shaking involuntarily. I can already tell that the ring is a magnetic key, and that a magnetic key can open a hidden door. The man's words made me tremble. The man hinted that if he walked through the secret door, he could go back to a place. That place is naturally where they came from! I tried to figure this out as much as I could, so I stalled for as long as I could, and I turned around: We can go together! The man frowned, as if he didn't understand what I was talking about. I know I've said something wrong, they probably always go back one by one, not two together, I don't know how to correct it. I had to force myself to laugh: I'm joking, I hope you don't blame me! The man also smiled more forcefully than I did, and said: Well, I was joking, I don't blame you. I turned around immediately, knowing that if I didn't make any reasonable moves to show that I belonged to me, then I would definitely arouse the suspicion of that person, so I put the ring into the slit. After a slight sound, the secret door opened, and I stepped in. When the secret door opened, it was dark inside. I just felt very strange, wondering why the light from the outside room could not reach the secret door. Looking at the situation, it seems that although the secret door is open, there is still something blocking the passage of light. However, when I stepped into the secret door, it was clear that there was no obstacle at all. I had no choice but to keep the mentality of taking one step at a time and seeing one step at a time. Anyway, it was extremely dark in front of me, which also helped to conceal it. After entering the secret door, I took two steps in a row. And the secret door closed behind me, I heard that slight sound, it was too dark in front of me, just when I was about to take out the infrared glasses, I suddenly sank down. I should probably explain that it wasn't my body that fell, it was just the floor I was standing on that sank. When a person is riding a fast elevator, the sudden sinking will cause a very uncomfortable and empty feeling in the heart, and at that time, the floor I was stepping on sank so fast , so the degree of discomfort is also indescribable, beyond the limit of what I can bear, I feel like my heart is about to fall out of my mouth, my hands are dancing, trying to grab something, but I can't grab anything. Fortunately, it only continued for about half a minute, the sinking stopped, I took a breath, and there was still darkness in front of my eyes, no sound, no light, everything was still and dead, I almost thought I was dead! But I can be sure that I am not dead, because I can hear all kinds of noises in my body, my stomach is like a bunch of old machines crashing, my heartbeat is like drums, and my breathing is like several bellows pulling together move. In the past, I had the opportunity to visit a sound laboratory. In that laboratory, there was a quiet room. In that quiet room, the sound isolation has reached a level of 99.99%. In the ashram I was in, the scientists claimed that no one could endure more than an hour in that ashram. But now, the place I am in is quieter than the quiet room, it must be 100% free of external sounds, because my feeling at this moment is even worse than in that quiet room.
