[Tomb Raiders Notes] The date has not been changed

After walking a short distance in the woods, a house appeared in front of him.

This house is not too big, but it looks quite grand from the outside. It is similar to the style of the general's mansion in the Republic of China, and it has a taste of Soviet-style gardens.

We walked under the outer wall and looked in through the panes. The house was quiet and uninhabited. Because of the winter, it looked a bit desolate.

"This place doesn't look like someone lives in it." The fat man frowned as he said, "The house is not too small, why doesn't it even have a servant to take care of it?"

"People who live in deep mountains and old forests, you can't think about them with common sense most of the time." I said, "Not to mention that this person built a house in deep mountains and old forests, maybe he is very happy living alone. "

"Go in." The black glasses went around to the direction of the main entrance, "Even if this place is really an abandoned old house, it's worth a visit."

We walked into the house one by one, with green eaves and white walls, and a pool in the middle of the garden. There were a few thin Taihu Lake stones in the pool, and the trees that had lost all their leaves made it look very cold.

"Look this way." The voice of the black glasses sounded, he was already ahead of us, maybe because he was in a hurry.

When we walked over, we found a corner of the yard, surrounded by trees, and there was a Buddha statue as tall as a person.

Such a Buddha statue is not very eye-catching in a temple, but it is very abrupt when placed in a house. I have seen statues placed in my own yard, but I have never seen anyone put a Buddha statue in the yard.

"What is this?" The fat man frowned and looked at the Buddha statue. "Brother, does this Buddha statue have something to say?"

Poker-face was also staring at the Buddha statue, and it was obvious that he felt a little strange, but after looking at it for a long time, he stretched out his hand to touch the Buddha statue, and finally shook his head.

If Boyouping can't see the name of the Buddha statue, it is even less likely for us to see it. We worked together to move the Buddha statue away, but we didn't find anything strange.

Who would put a big Buddha statue in a house built in the Republic of China? It is simply incomprehensible from any angle.

We didn't go directly into the main hall of the inner courtyard, but continued to walk around the outer courtyard. We still didn't meet anyone along the way, and there were very few houses in this courtyard.

Behind the outer courtyard is a tall archway, which can be vaguely seen just now. I thought it was a turret on the back door of the courtyard.The houses here are generally built large due to the small number, but it still cannot conceal the overhang of this archway.

"What is this archway?" Fatty looked at the archway, stunned, "Who would build an archway in his own house?"

"He can put a Buddha statue in the front yard, why can't he put an archway in the back yard." I said.

There are no words on the archway, which makes people completely unable to understand the meaning of the existence of this archway. At first I thought that it might be an ancestral hall like some ancient buildings in Anhui area, but after thinking about it, there are Buddha statues in the courtyard of the ancestral hall. It's still not in compliance with the rules.

After turning around in the outer courtyard, we returned to the gate of the inner courtyard, in front of the Buddha statue.

We have already walked around the outer courtyard. Except for the Buddha statue in the front yard and the archway in the backyard, there is nothing particularly strange about this house as a whole. Because of the consistent color tone, it looks very harmonious at first glance, but there is nothing here. Alone, it seems extremely wrong.

"Let me tell you, we can't go any further." The fat man was very serious, "This place is too strange, the point is that we walked around, but still didn't get any information, and instead added more problems that couldn't be solved. "

Normally speaking, when encountering such a strange house, I really would not go inside. I am no longer a person who would trespass in dangerous places out of curiosity, and this house is undoubtedly weird, and being weird means It's dangerous, but Xiaohua's whereabouts may be tied to this house, I definitely can't just leave like this.

"If you miss this message, I don't know when the next message from Master Hua will be." Black Glasses said, "So I won't leave."

"But are you sure this is Huo Chi's residence?" the fat man said, "To tell you the truth, I think this place is more like a yin house than a place where people live."

The so-called yin house is the house where the dead live. Some people will not be buried in the earth for various reasons after death, leaving behind a "yin house" that is actually a tomb. If this house is really a yin house, the house on the sunny side Underneath, there will be a corresponding "shadow house" underground, and the corpses will be buried there uniformly. If this is the case, the archway in the backyard and the Buddha statue in the front yard can barely make sense.

"The yin house can also be occupied by people." Black Glasses said, "Huo Chi is a pervert."

"Don't you think there is too much conspiracy in this place?" Fatty said again, "A house is hidden so secretively, it doesn't make sense that the bronze statue would be discovered, maybe the whole thing is a conspiracy, Huo Chi is inviting you into the urn. "

"No matter what, I will definitely go in." The tone of the black glasses was very firm.

The fat man glanced at the little brother, probably knowing that it would be useless to seek his help at a time like this, so he looked at me.

I looked at the fat man apologetically, and said to my brother, I can’t help you this time. My thinking mode has already been changed after so many years. I might be curious and afraid before, but now I haven’t been anywhere. It's just a house, just like when I was looking for my little brother back then, I didn't think about anything. Xiaohua has helped me a lot in the past ten years. I really regard him as a very important friend, so I can do the same thing for him .

"Even if it's really a conspiracy, who can fight the four of us just now?" I said to the fat man, "The Long March is only a short shiver away, let's go in."

The fat man glanced at me, shook his head and sighed, with an expression of "women are not allowed to stay", but after he took out the machete from his bag, he walked into the inner courtyard with us.

To be honest, the sense of disobedience in the inner courtyard is not that heavy, strictly speaking, there is no sense of disobedience.However, looking at the walls, one can tell that this house was by no means preserved from the time of the Republic of China.

Just as he was thinking, the door of the inner courtyard hall opened with a "squeak", and Huo Chi came out from inside.He was wearing a Chinese tunic suit, which seemed to be especially in tune with this house.

"Guys, welcome to the humble house." Huo Chi looked at us and smiled slightly.
