Chapter 8
After Jiangtang woke up, the two bought tickets to Tongcheng.

01:30 PM car.

The drive was fast and we arrived at our destination in less than three hours.

The only relationship between Tongcheng and Feng Mian is his old house. Since this illusion is related to him, the secret must be hidden in the old house.

The old house is in the mountains, and there are all mountain roads. The car cannot drive up, so it can only be walked.

There are woods on both sides, and the weeds reach to the knees. Fengmian opens the way in front, beats the weeds to both sides and tramples them firmly, and Jiang Tang follows behind to make it easier to walk.

After about half an hour, Jiang Tang's pace gradually slowed down.

She grew up in the city, and she could hail a taxi wherever she waved. She had never walked such a rugged mountain road, and her physical strength was almost exhausted.

Feng Mian looked at the old house on the top of the mountain from a distance, since he got the notebook, his physique has grown extremely fast, he has not even been out of breath after climbing the mountain for so long.

He walked up to Jiang Tang, squatted down with his back to her: "I'll carry you."

Ginger Tang braced his knees and breathed heavily: "No... I can continue to climb..."

Even though she said that, her whole face was flushed and she was out of breath, obviously exhausted.

"I'll carry you." Feng Mian was still standing in front of her, and said, "I have good physical strength, so we can go up faster, and you should also save some physical strength, and there may be some emergencies."

What he said is very reasonable, if you walk slowly like this, you may not be able to arrive at night.

Jiang Tang had no choice but to lean on his back, wrapping his arms around his neck.

"Thank you, Brother Feng."

Ginger Tang whispered thanks from his back.

"fine."

With her on his back, Feng Mian didn't feel that the burden had become heavier at all. It seemed that his current physique was not in good shape. Thinking about it, he quickened his pace and wanted to climb to the top of the mountain before dark.

Jiang Tang lay quietly on his back, and the petite girl looked around vigilantly.

They finally stood at the gate of the old house before the sun went down.

In the quaint old house, the paint on the wooden door was a little off. He stretched out his hand to scrape away the dirt at the door, and there was a key lying inside.

He would go back to the old house every year. Sometimes he was busy with overtime work. When he was in a hurry, he would forget to bring the key, so he buried a spare key at the door. Anyway, it is such a high mountain, and he is not afraid that someone will come.

"Squeak-"

Opening the gate and entering the yard, there was a lot of moss on the corner of the wall, and there was silence, revealing a gloomy atmosphere.

Jiang Tang became a little scared: "It's always like this in horror movies. When a group of people come to the old house, they will meet... ah!"

A dark shadow flashed in front of her, and she let out a cry.

The black shadow stopped on the eaves, only to see that it was just a swallow.

Jiang Tang patted his chest in shock: "I was scared to death."

Feng Mian walked to the back of the courtyard, stood in front of a door, and pushed it open.

In the empty room, there was a long table covered in dust. He had never known what this room was for since he was a child, and it had always been empty, except for this table.

But in this illusion, a change has taken place.

A small rectangular wooden box was placed on the table that should have been empty.

He frowned, isn't this the wooden box he brought out when he went back to the old house last Qingming?Inside this wooden box is the notebook.

But this box should be in a cabinet in another room.

In this empty house in the illusion, there is a wooden box, is that book also inside?Will Bi Fang appear too?
Could it be that Bi Fang did all of this?
To confirm, he stepped forward to open the wooden box.

is empty.

Feng Mian's frown deepened.

He picked up the wooden box and checked it carefully. Yes, it was the wooden box he brought back from his hometown, but it was empty inside.

Is it because the notebook has been taken away by him?

It shouldn't be, isn't this an illusion?Even if he took away the notebook in reality, shouldn't he restore the scene according to his memory in the illusion?

Jiang Tang moved closer to him: "Brother Feng, what is this?"

He came back to his senses and glanced at the curious Jiang Tang beside him.

The same goes for ginger candy, and so does the book, neither of which appeared in his illusion, there must be something strange about it.

He put the wooden box back on the table: "I don't know, it was originally empty, but this box appeared on the table."

"Then this box is the projector you mentioned, right?" Jiang Tang looked at the wooden box on the table, and was a little timid to reach out for it, "Will you be able to get out if you smash this?"

Feng Mian replied: "I don't know, but I don't think it should be that simple."

The girl circled the table and picked up the wooden box with determination: "Try it first!"

As she spoke, she raised the wooden box high and smashed it to the ground.

With a "bang", the wooden box was slammed to the ground and rolled several times, but it did not fall apart.

"Is it so strong?" Jiang Tang muttered to himself, walked over to pick up the wooden box, and lifted it up again, "I don't believe it."

She used ten percent of her strength this time, gritting her teeth, and she was bound to smash the wooden box.

The moment she raised her hand, she made too much movement, and accidentally lost her grip, and the wooden box flew out of her palm.

The wooden box flew high along the parabola, smashed on the beam of the house, and then fell down.

Feng Mian just wanted her to stop falling and let him do it, because his strength is relatively strong.

Before he had time to speak, there was a sudden rustling sound in the room, as if something was startled by Jiang Tang's behavior just now.

Hearing the sound, both of them raised their heads subconsciously.

!! ?
There was a black shadow on the beam, which looked like... a dead body wrapped in a sack was hanging upside down!
Feng Mian stared at the shadow in shock, following the movement of the thing, the "sack" unfolded, and it turned out to be a huge bat.

The bats were hanging upside down on the beams. They seemed to be sleeping, but now they were awakened by the sound they made. They opened their blood-red eyes and slowly spread their wings.

!!!

Jiang Tang's eyes widened in an instant, her feet were unsteady, and she almost fell down. She quickly hugged Feng Mian's arm: "This... this... do you all have the habit of keeping pets in your hometown?"

Her bright eyes looked at him expectantly, hoping to hear an affirmative answer from his mouth.

Feng Mian turned her head and broke her hope helplessly: "Our hometown doesn't keep pets, let alone... such things."

"Shh-"

The bat has spread its wings and looks about two meters long. Its red eyes are staring at the two people standing below.

Jiang Tang leaned softly on Feng Mian's body, looked up at him and asked, "Do you know... what do bats usually eat?"

Feng Mian recalled, as far as he knew, most of the bats ate arthropods or mice, but those bats were not as big as his palm.

The one in front of me...it's hard to say what to eat.

While staring at the bat, the bat suddenly moved.

"run!"

Feng Mian yelled, and the moment the bat swooped down, he took Jiang Tang's hand and rushed out.
