"Look for me."
I was surprised.
I looked through the man in front of me at the woman wearing big sunglasses.
Although the sunglasses covered her eyes, I seemed to feel that she was also looking at me. otbnkotgt "Okay."
I nodded and walked over.
When I got closer, the woman took off her sunglasses to reveal a face that seemed particularly unfamiliar to me.
From a close distance, I could tell that this woman was older, even with makeup on.
But the wrinkles on his forehead and some vicissitudes of appearance cannot be covered up.
He looked about forty years old, so I asked, "Hello, I don't think we know each other."
She smiled and said, "My surname is Zhang.
It's true that you don't know me, but I know you.
Or to be more precise, I know your mother."
I was startled and even frowned involuntarily.
She continued: "Your mother and I met when we were in Guangdong, and have always been good friends.
We have also had business contacts in the past few years.
She returned to Hong Kong from Shanghai a few years ago, and when we had dinner together, she gave me I’ve seen your photo, so I recognize you.”
"Oh, what a coincidence."
I replied expressionlessly.
"I heard that there are some conflicts between you and your mother.
I haven't contacted your mother for a long time."
"There were indeed problems between me and her, but they have all passed.
Now we just know each other."
In fact, if it hadn't been for the series of things that happened after she returned to Shanghai five years ago, I would not have any feelings for her.
Such a bad impression, of course, I can't say I hate him, but I don't like him that much.
I just call him an acquaintance.
"My child, there are some things that cannot be separated between you.
After all, you are your mother's flesh and blood, and blood ties cannot be separated.
Even if there are any problems between you, it should be resolved after so many years."
"If you want to be her lobbyist, you don't have to.
There is no enmity, no love or hatred between me and her, and we probably won't see each other again in the future.
If there is nothing else, I still have something to do."
Leave her behind.
I was about to leave after saying this, but I heard Mr.
Zhang shake his head and say: "Your mother has not been in good health in the past two years and has been suffering from minor illnesses.
After all, you are her son.
If you have time, you should go to Hong Kong to see her."
My heart trembled for no reason, but I still smiled and said: "Yes, I will wait until I have time.
By the way, I also remind you that there is something strange about this ancestral hall.
You'd better find a master before you start construction.
Take a look."
After saying that, I didn't look back.
Just leave.
After walking back for a long time and barely seeing the people behind me, I took out the key again.
I had been looking for it in the ancestral hall for a long time but could not find out what kind of lock this key actually opened.
But as I walked along, a thought came to my mind and I said, "Fat man.

Could it be that the keyhole that this key can open is no longer in the ancestral hall?"
The fat man paused, as if he didn't understand what I meant, and looked at me with strange eyes.
I waved my hand and said: "Look, geographically speaking, those old Western-style buildings are not far from the ancestral hall.
At the same time, there is a village behind the ancestral hall.
This key must have some background, so it can open the lock."
If Kong is not in the ancestral hall, he may be in a village or a small foreign-style building.”
"What you mean is that the lock and key are separated," the fat man realized and continued.
"Yes, that's what it means.
If the keyhole is somewhere else, then it's most likely to be in a small village or an old Western-style building.
I don't think it's worth it for us to go back like this.
In this way, we divide the troops into two groups and go to the village to inquire.
The other two Let's go to the old foreign house together."
I said, "In this case, I will go to the foreign house, and Luo Qiong will join me.
Fatty, you and Yuan Feng will go to the village to inquire about it, and help us buy some food.
Let’s meet at the car in an hour.”
The fat man looked unhappy and looked at Yuan Feng casually.
His face looked a little ugly.
I arranged it like this on purpose.
We will all have to do things together in the future.
What if we keep a straight face all day long?
Letting them be alone may help resolve each other's embarrassment as soon as possible.
The fat man glared at me.
He must have noticed my little thoughts, but I pretended not to notice, and waved Luo Qiong towards the old foreign building, very quickly.
The distance between the two teams was widened.
These old mansions built in the woods seemed like a scary world to me as a child.
It's a restricted area that we kids never dare to approach or step into.
The gray walls are covered with ivy, the humid environment and the yard covered with fallen leaves, and the opaque windows look very eerie.
It seems that at any time, a scary face will appear from the window and startle you.
As a result, when we were studying, there were more than one version of scary legends circulated among the children, including that a classmate once walked into the old Western-style building and never came out again, and that there were ghosts living inside.
Specializing in cannibalism and the like.
These rumors have been passed down from generation to generation, and even when I asked Huizhi, he told me that similar legends are still circulated among children today.
I walked to the closed iron door.
This kind of iron door was not airtight.
The pattern on it is pure European style.
Through the iron gate, you can see a small fountain built in front of the yard.
Of course, only the shape remains now.
During the Cultural Revolution, this place was not spared.
Many brave people rushed in in groups, smashed it up and left.
There were also scavengers who groped into the old Western-style building and found some porcelain antiques.
Standing here again, I just feel that the whole building is gloomy.
Not that I had the fear of childhood.
After climbing over the wall, I walked towards the gate of the foreign-style building.
The gate was not closed because the lock on it had long been broken.
I pushed the gate gently and opened it immediately.
A musty smell mixed with some unpleasant smell came to me.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Rotten smell.
"Let's search separately.
If you find anything suspicious, call me."
I took the key and went up to the second floor first.
The whole old western-style building was only three floors long, but the space was larger than today's western-style houses.
I went up the stone stairs.
There was a living room and two bedrooms on the second floor.
The living room was in a mess.
The tables and chairs were greatly decayed, and there were also some bottles and cans that were smashed to the ground. fragments.
The door of the bedroom on the left was open.
Looking inside, it was clear that the bed board was empty, and there was nothing like a safe or a secret door.
I walked around the room and found an unexpected discovery in the corner.
I saw something in the sun dazzling my eyes.
When I walked over and took a closer look, I realized that what was dazzling my eyes was actually a photo frame.
It is estimated that when it was vandalized, the photo frame fell down and got stuck in the gap behind the table, so it was not found.
I took out the photo frame and put it in the sun to take a look.
There was only one person in the photo, a black and white photo, a woman wearing a cheongsam sitting on a chair.
The hairstyle and appearance all reveal the style of old Shanghai.
It's just that this woman's face doesn't look very happy, very cold, and her face is already very thin.
In addition, the color of the cheongsam in the black and white photo cannot be seen, only black, so she looks very thin.
She was sitting upright, and the jewelry on her hands and ears showed that she must be a young lady from a wealthy family.
It looked like this was her room.
I put the photo frame on the table casually.
I found nothing in this room, so I walked towards the bedroom on the other side.
The bedroom door was closed.
I pushed it and it seemed to be locked, but the lock was in disrepair.
I used a little force to push the door open completely.
The curtains in the room were drawn, and an unpleasant smell filled the air.
It's very dark and you can't see clearly the interior furnishings.
I covered my mouth and nose and walked in, waving my hands.
The dust in the air made me cough a few times.
He walked to the window, stretched out his hand, and pulled down the entire curtain.
The sun shines in through the glass window, I open the window and let in some ventilation.
Then he turned back to search the room, but when he turned back he was instantly stunned.
This is the bedroom, and naturally there is a bed in the bedroom.
But there should be no one living in the old foreign-style building that had long been deserted.
But at this moment, I saw the bed behind me covered with a quilt, and it looked like a human figure.
The room was too dark just now and I couldn't see clearly, but now that I saw it, I was stunned
