Old Fogey Goes Down The Mountain

Recently, there has been quite a lot of news on microblogs in major local forums in Beijing, that is, a super scary haunted house has opened in the suburbs of Beijing.

Although this haunted house opened not long ago, it has a big name. The venue has a history of many years, and the owner of the whole family was killed violently in the house. The background sounds eerie.

In fact, when it first opened, this haunted house did not really attract much attention. Although the marketing accounts on the Internet were very popular, but after all, the capital is so big that there are many interesting things. This kind of equipment is available in ordinary playgrounds. It doesn't really attract many young people.

But the following series of events were unexpected. First, the haunted house was open, and then it was suddenly announced to be closed for rectification.Everyone thought it was because of the fire safety inspection or the business license. Unexpectedly, there was a faint news that the reason for the closure and rectification was that a customer was scared and fell ill after entering. The patient’s family had amazing wealth. In a rage, the family shut down the culprit to vent their anger.

This matter immediately became very eye-catching. Many local young people forwarded this news one after another, exclaiming what kind of haunted house it is, which is so terrifying that it makes people sick.

There are people who have been there to say that the haunted house is really different. It is completely different from the joke-like haunted house in the amusement park. The atmosphere is very permeating. Several girls even said that they were halfway there Sometimes I still feel a icy cold touch on my face, as if I was touched by something lightly, but when I look closely, there is nothing around me.

Because this kind of remark is too weird, naturally some people who don't believe it scoff, thinking that this is a child of the haunted house's own propaganda.

This kind of speculation is more based after the haunted house was closed for rectification for a period of time and then reopened again. In addition, the haunted house has changed a brand-new sign this time and changed its name to Taicang Haunted House. .

But there are also many attracted customers. Young people who go shopping and playing disco all day long want to seek excitement. Many of them want to witness with their own eyes what is the magic of this haunted house that scares the rich second generation. Don't try to expose online bloggers who are exaggerated by unscrupulous merchants for hype.

But the latest news from these people has changed from eager to try: "Ahhhhhh!!!"

"Damn!! Ghost!!!"

"Fuck! A bloody head suddenly fell to the bottom of my feet! He blinked his eyes and looked at me and smiled!!!! I went to grab a hand of air, but it was still there, what the hell is this Immortal props! Holographic projection!!"

"I rely on... the moment I walked out of the haunted house, the sunshine was so beautiful."

"The legs are so frightened... There is a female ghost who is really good at acting. She fell directly in front of me from the ceiling without a cushion. I don't know what props were stuffed in her mouth. Her tongue became bigger than my arm. It's still long..."

"Kneel down! Which company developed this Taicang haunted house! It's completely different from the fake haunted house in the amusement park!"

"Knock on excitement!! I want to bring my friends to play again! I haven't encountered such an interesting project for a long time!"

"A ticket of 300 yuan is not expensive at all! I don't know how much money was invested in this haunted house. The production is too good! All the staff who appear in the whole process are projections, and they can interact with you, as if they are really in front of you. ! I've never seen such a realistic projection!"

Word of mouth spread like this, and the circle of friends of young people in the capital city immediately spread the publicity about this haunted house. The haunted house in the suburbs of Beijing was full of tourists for a while, and it really became a holy place for adventure in the eyes of young people.

Huang Jue found the circle of friends where his ex-girlfriend was going to explore the haunted house at the class reunion, and bitterly liked the nine-square grid selfie, and suddenly felt a little familiar, so he couldn't help asking his old classmate: "What kind of haunted house is this, is it from before?" The one who got sick after Ruan Shixing went there? Didn’t I hear that his house was shut down for rectification, so why did it reopen?”

After all, it’s been a long time since I graduated, and I don’t usually walk around much. The old classmates don’t know much about the inside story, so they speculated with a smile: “I guess it’s just a joke. Do you really believe that he will get sick after going to the haunted house? It must be the haunted house that took him. It’s just hype, not even mentioning his name.”

"Is Ruan Shixing sick? Is it serious?" Another classmate heard their discussion and came over with a worried face, ignorant of the matter.

Huang Jue nodded: "Yes, I have been ill for a while, but the symptoms are ghosts, poor sleep and auditory hallucinations. It is probably not serious."

The man was surprised: "Isn't this serious? Could it be that I bumped into something dirty?"

Huang Jue waved his hand: "What kind of filth, probably because of too much pressure. What's more, you don't know who Ruan Shixing is. As a party member, he never believes in such things."

When the voice fell, a figure came in at the door, and Ruan Shixing walked in with an elite style in a suit and leather shoes: "I've heard my name from a long distance away, and you're talking bad about me again, aren't you?"

The old classmates all laughed wildly when they saw him. At this time, the classmate who spoke looked at Huang Jue more, and said worriedly: "Don't talk about him, look at yourself, why do you look so bad? You don't usually work out every day. ?"

Huang Jue and Ruan Shixing were roommates in college. They greeted each other intimately, and then smiled wryly: "Oh, I'm similar to him. Maybe it's because I've been under too much pressure recently, and I keep dreaming about weird things. Someone was crying in front of me, and my girlfriend, they all said they were going to get married, and the wedding room was bought, but suddenly they broke up again. Oh, forget it, let’s not talk, what’s the use of talking so much .”

When he finished speaking, he saw Ruan Shixing standing in front of him, asking with piercing eyes, "Is what you said true?"

Huang Jue didn't know why, so he smiled awkwardly: "It's just a small problem, it's almost the same as before, maybe this wave of troubles will pass."

Unexpectedly, Ruan Shixing's expression became more serious when he heard the words, and he even pulled a chair to sit beside him.Huang Jue was even more disturbed, thinking that the other party was dissatisfied because he made things too mysterious.After all, Ruan Shixing's materialism is a bit domineering. When he lived in the dormitory, he often seemed dismissive when talking about various mysterious legends in the school during the night chat.

Unexpectedly, Ruan Shixing put his hand on his shoulder, but opened his mouth and said, "Third brother, even though some problems are small, we should not take them lightly."

Huang Jue: "?"

Ruan Shixing took out his wallet from his trouser pocket and handed over a business card: "I know a master who has done a lot of research on this subject, should I take you to meet him?"

Huang Jue: "..."

Ruan Shixing added: "I'm very good at exorcising evil spirits and catching ghosts. I'm their VIP."

The entire class reunion scene was silent.

***

Ruan Shixing was still a little apprehensive when he brought his old classmate who was in a daze to find Wei's house. He recovered from his illness within a few days after returning. Apart from some mental shadows, he never had any dreams that made him sleep badly.Even the family members who were completely materialistic from their ancestors thought this change was very miraculous, and even followed suit and burned two sticks of incense in the temple, not to mention himself who had personally experienced exorcising evil spirits in a haunted house.

Therefore, although he paid 100 million VIP money in addition to the original fee, he didn't feel very heartbroken. Compared with normal life, what can money compare to?

It's just that holding the VIP card in his hand still feels hot. The main reason is that he doesn't know why he always thinks of Wei Xi, but he just wants to return. He has no legitimate reason to come to find someone.

Fortunately, Huang Jue, whom he met at the class reunion, solved this problem for him.

Huang Jue is still confused until now: "Boss, boss, what's the matter with you, aren't you a party member? Why do you start to believe in these strange powers now?"

"What's wrong with the party members?" Ruan Shixing said confidently, "It doesn't involve religious beliefs, not to mention you know that it's a strange force? Do you know what the gift is for someone's VIP card? Are you talking nonsense?"

Huang Jue: "...What for?"

""An Introduction to the Basic Principles of Marxism" is based on social science!"

Huang Jue wiped off his sweat, feeling that the more he listened, the more unreliable he seemed.

This unreliable feeling reached its peak the moment he stood outside the gate of Wei's courtyard.

I saw that the lawn in the inner yard had been scraped clean, and the excavated soil was piled up next to it. A husky covered in mud was rolling happily in the mud pile, wagging its tongue, and the whole yard was in a mess. The house ahead looked almost as if it was still being renovated.

The company's "Taicangzong" is strong and powerful, but it is a pity that it is written on a strange wooden board and hung casually at the gate of the courtyard. Huang Jue looked at the wooden board carefully, and the more it looked, the more it looked like a door with the handle removed.

Ruan Shixing rang the doorbell, and a moment later a cold, watery male voice came out of the loudspeaker: "Who is it?"

Ruan Shixing asked, "Is this the Taicang sect?"

The male voice paused for a moment, then raised his voice and shouted: "Dad, it's your turn."

Immediately there was a burst of vague and noisy cursing, and after a while, the backyard door opened, and a man who looked like a housekeeper ran out wiping his sweat, and another middle-aged man wearing sunglasses stood behind him angrily.

Huang Jue: "..."

It's really not that he is suspicious, this company does look very wrong!

***

Wei Xi went downstairs with his own bamboo basket, and saw Ruan Shixing sitting cautiously in the living room with a stranger, and Wei Tianyi sitting next to them on a separate sofa, with his arms folded and a very dissatisfied expression on his face. look.

He was not surprised at all, turned his eyes away from the strange young man, and shouted: "Wanrong!"

Shu Wanrong came out of the corner slowly, with perfect hairstyle and a Hermès Platinum on her hand, her eyes were hesitant: "Xiaoxi, I have an appointment with someone to do a spa..."

"Take a small red bag inside, open it, and evenly sprinkle the soil inside on the soil layer outside the courtyard." Wei Xi ignored it at all, and passed the bamboo basket over, "Do what you are supposed to do." Go after that."

Shu Wanrong: "..."

Wei Tianyi had a dark face and looked like he wanted to curse, but in the end it was Wei Chengshu who silently stepped forward to take over, but he was staggered when he got it, and he called Steward Zhou and his two aunts to forcefully drag the basket out.

Wei Xi admired him very much, and said to the second apprentice behind him, "This is the most diligent disciple in our sect."

Shuo Zong: "..."

Silence returned to silence, his eyes still followed a wonderful smell in the basket, the smell was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had smelled it for a while.

It was also the first time Ruan Shixing and Huang Jue saw a woman carrying a bamboo basket with Hermes on her shoulders. They were dumbfounded for a while, and then Wei Xi asked, "Are you looking for me?"

Ruan Shixing came back to his senses, he was at a loss in front of him for a moment, he coughed and then nodded and said yes, his eyes turned to the unbelievably beautiful young man behind Wei Xi, and he was stunned: "Huh? Lu Que? Why are you here too?" this?"

Shuo Zong glanced at his reddish ear tips, and didn't want to pay attention to this person.

Wei Xi was still very friendly to the VIP. After explaining his relationship with the second apprentice, he glanced at the table and looked at Wei Tianyi: "Why don't you even have tea or fruit?"

Wei Tianyi's face was completely dark, pulling like an old cucumber, but Ruan Shixing waved his hands embarrassingly: "Don't, don't, uncle is very kind to us, and he has asked Steward Zhou to pour tea for us."

Wei Xi was a little dissatisfied because of Wei Tianyi's passive sabotage, but seeing the guests didn't have any objections, he sat down anyway. After sitting down, he glanced at the two of them, and finally settled on the embarrassing face of Huang Jue: "Let's go!" , what happened."

Huang Jue still didn't believe this in his heart, not to mention that the Taicang sect that Ruan Shixing brought him here looked so strange, such a young master came out, and the atmosphere of getting along with everyone in the room was also very strange, it looked even worse than ordinary gymnasiums and temples Reliable, so he resisted a little, but he was still surprised that the other party could tell at a glance that he was looking for help, smiled and said: "It's just some small things, maybe it's because of too much mental pressure recently, and I can't sleep well. Sleep."

Wei Xi didn't say anything, took a sip of the tea handed by Butler Zhou, looked at him irresolutely, and suddenly asked, "Do you want to apply for a card?"

Huang Jue thought that he would say some pretentious words to persuade himself, but when he heard such a sales promotion with a breath of life, he was stunned: "What?"

Wei Xi explained: "Single card and one person, Ruan Shixing's VIP discount cannot be used for you."

"..." Huang Jue was speechless and didn't know what to say. He always felt that he had come to some chain hair salon. After seeing the appearance of Wei Xi and the two apprentices, especially the apprentice named Lu Que, this dislocation Feeling more serious, he replied with shame: "No, no need."

"Oh." Wei Xi looked a little disappointed, and his attitude was a little lazy, "There are at least three evil spirits in your family. It's not cheap to drive them away. Are you sure?"

Huang Jue got up and wanted to leave at first, but when he heard this, he was shocked and turned his head slowly: "You... what are you talking about? Three what?"

Wei Xi: "Guest ghost, didn't you count them in your dream?"

Huang Jue was sweating all over his body in an instant, and the sweat from his temples dripped down like turning on a faucet. He heard himself swallowing a mouthful of saliva, and asked tremblingly, "You...how did you knew?"

The dream shadows that disturbed his sleep were usually solitary, but sometimes they would appear in groups. He once wrote down the details of his dreams after waking up, and there were three at most.But he never mentioned this to anyone.

When Huang Jue came, all the thoughts about liars were swept away in an instant, and his heart was beating crazily. Could it be that something so evil really happened?One counted and counted three, if it was guessed, it would be too accurate, right?

Wei Xi didn't understand his shock at all: "What don't you know? You moved to a new house a month ago? The dream also happened after that, right?"

When Huang Jue heard this, his whole body was immediately drenched in cold sweat, and he sat upright carefully: "You, you are right, I was planning to marry my girlfriend recently, but the house in Beijing is too expensive, so I keep buying it." I’m sorry. There is a relative in the family who takes care of me and sells me a school district house, which I just renovated and lived in last month.”

The house in this school district is quite good, and the price is nearly one-third lower than the market price. The relative said that he planned to buy it for his son as a wedding house. Huang Jue and his parents were very grateful to each other for this.

The ceremony of his moving house was also very simple. Apart from his girlfriend and parents, among his friends and classmates, even Ruan Shixing, who had the best sleeping relationship with him in college, hadn't been notified.

Huang Jue was completely convinced now, it was not something that could be guessed, so his gaze on Wei Xi suddenly changed, it was almost like looking at a life-saving straw. Can't hold on to anyone.

He asked tremblingly, "Grand Master, since you can calculate it, can you find a way to resolve it?"

The master is still the same as he first met, but in Huang Jue's eyes at this time, the other party's unreliable image seems to have become a sacred and cold flower of Gaoling.Kaolin Zhihua looked at him with disdainful eyes, and slowly opened her mouth——

"Are you really not going to be our VIP? There is a sign-up gift."

Huang Jue: "..."

Did you mean "An Introduction to the Basic Principles of Marxism"?

The author has something to say:

Ruan Shixing: It smells so good!
