Chapter 4 There must be an effect if there is a cause
One night in September 1966, several Red Guards who came to Hanjiang Division University to connect with each other ran to the big locust tree at the entrance of Building No. 6 to enjoy the cool air. However, they were found to be killed the next day.
After forensic examination, several people had no external injuries, but their eyes were wide open, and they looked like they were scared to death after encountering something extremely terrifying.
Although rebelling was everywhere at that time, not many people were not afraid of these things, especially the students of the Han Dynasty had been exaggerating the legend of the Japanese Ghost Tower since they entered the school, and naturally they were a little afraid of this place.
However, a group of revolutionary young generals did not believe in this evil. They organized a stormtrooper and rushed into Building No. 6 one night with the slogan of breaking the four old ones.
At first nothing happened, but something happened in the middle of the night.
According to a person who survived by chance, when the stormtrooper was searching in the building, he encountered a monster who was neither human nor ghost. The monster was like an evil ghost in the painting, with a hideous face and twisted limbs, covered with black hair, and looked like a black Rakshasa.
At first they thought it was a prank, so they plucked up their courage to catch the Black Rakshasa. As a result, several Black Rakshasa were uncut on the spot. In the end, only a timid high school student hiding in the dark escaped. After a few days, they went crazy and the others could not even find the corpse.
Now no one thinks that the previous statements were all rumors, but the incident was ordered by the superiors to completely block the news and not be circulated outside the country.
Until the reform and opening up, the school's order gradually got on track, so Building No. 6, a problem that has always caused great headaches for school leaders was put on the agenda again.
At that time, the school committee solicited opinions from teachers and students. Whether the building is in existence or in ruins, it should first think of a way to eliminate the fear of outsiders.
At that time, a professor in the school was a person who loved studying the Zhouyi Bagua Yin and Yang Fengshui. He met many strange people and boldly suggested to the school that he would invite a few Yin and Yang masters to come to the school for a look.
In the eyes of many scholars, these so-called Yin-Yang masters are just scammers in the world, but this professor doesn’t think so. He believes that everything has a cause, and there is a cause, and there is a result. If you want to solve problems that ordinary people cannot solve, you have to rely on these people who wander between Yin-Yang.
When the school leaders heard this, they thought this was a nonsense! A university actually wanted to hire a warlock to catch ghosts? But after thinking about it, there seemed to be no better way, so they had to agree as if they were ill and rushed to the hospital.
Unexpectedly, the Onmyoji invited pointed out the problem at a glance. They believed that the main entrance of the building faced south and faced a large locust tree that had been growing for nearly a hundred years, Yinqiu Building.
The door frame of the main door was embedded in an old tradition by the carpenter who worked in the past, which made it impossible for the evil spirits and evil spirits to escape. In this way, there was a lot of yin energy inside and outside the building, and it was difficult to hit the wall without encountering ghosts.
The problem seems to be obvious. Although the school is half-believing and half-doubted, it is still planned to ask these Onmyoji to do a few rituals to get rid of the so-called Yin Qi.
But one of the masters admitted that the practice of catching evil ghosts was just a gimmick made by scammers in the world. The real reason was only on the gossip mirror and the locust tree in front of the building. As long as the tree is cut off and the door is replaced, the matter will naturally be solved.
The school immediately did as usual, and it turned out that it became much quieter from now on, but no one dared to go around casually.
From today to today, this place is still a forbidden area in the eyes of teachers and students of the school. The legend of the Japanese ghost building has been passed down for a long time and has become a retained project for old students to scare freshmen every year.
After listening to Liang Zi's introduction, I finally understood why Professor Wu was willing to pay such a high price. It turned out that there were so many complicated things behind this.
I asked Liangzi: "That navigation chart is still in this building?"
Liang Zi said: "That's right, the thief took the police to Building No. 6 to identify the scene and refused to say anything. He had a conflict with the prisoner in the detention center that night, but was beaten and seriously injured and died.
Although the police always suspected that the mastermind behind the scenes hired the murderer to commit the crime, the criminals who beat people insisted that it was caused by ordinary fights and even if they were sentenced to death, no one would let go.
Once the thief died, no one knew where the navigation chart was hidden. Maybe someone didn't want it to be released.
Professor Wu has looked for it many times in private, but he always returns in vain and gradually becomes a magical disease. He has to find this navigation chart.
It is said that a foreign overseas Chinese was also interested in this matter and sent someone to search for it secretly, but Mao didn't find any.
Later, the superiors ordered the sealing of all files and were not allowed to mention this matter again.
So to this day, the hiding place of the navigation chart is still a mystery, but it is certain that it is still in Building 6."
Thinking of Professor Wu being followed, I asked him again: "Is there anyone else involved in this matter besides the overseas Chinese you mentioned? I suspect that there is someone behind Professor Wu's attention."
Liang Zi shook his head: "I don't know this anymore, and I don't have the time to inquire. But there is such a thing. Someone posted a post on a school forum saying that he had once entered the ghost building at night.
The doors of all rooms inside the building were removed, but one of them was intact and locked from the inside.
The door number seems to be...401, yes, it is 401.
I don’t know if it’s true or not, anyway, that guy wrote it quite evilly.”
401? I couldn't help but lit up. This is quite useful information. Maybe I can find something in it.
From this point of view, Building 6 has to go.
Afterwards, we talked about our childhood for a few words, and Liangzi said that we had class in the afternoon and was about to leave.
Before leaving, he suddenly said to me solemnly: "Fengzi, don't think about going to break into that ghost building, it's evil!"
I smiled indifferently, "Since I have taken over Professor Wu's work, I must continue to do it. Besides, you said that the navigation chart is in the ghost building. If I don't go there, where can I go?"
Liangzi said: "No, you don't understand what I mean. You can go there, but don't go there alone.
Besides, you don’t know anything, what can you find when you go in? If it’s so easy, can such a heavyweight treasure be your turn?"
While nodding, I thought to myself, even if it is evil, it can still pass through the Hall of Hell?
After Liangzi left, I took out my cell phone and searched the campus map of Hanjiang Normal University, and found that Building No. 6 was not far from the teahouse.
Following the navigation on the map, I soon found the location.
From a distance, Building No. 6 is so eye-catching. Compared with the various buildings in which this school is painted in the same color, it is completely outstanding.
The whole building looks square, with all the walls made of stone, with the smell of foreign buildings in the Hankou Concession during the Republic of China period.
Although it is not as gloomy as the legendary one, I feel a little chill when I get close to it. The door downstairs was closed, and a sign was hung next to it, with four big words "No entry".
Thinking of the 401 room mentioned by Liangzi, I think I have to go up and take a look first.
Maybe no one was willing to guard this building, so there was no guard downstairs. I pried the door open and slipped in without much effort.
After going up four floors in a row, the surroundings were surprisingly quiet.
I followed the door number and found that only 401 had a door, but there was no padlock outside.
I pushed hard and found that it was really locked from the inside. The thick layer of gray on the threshold fully demonstrated that the door had not been opened for a long time.
This is strange. If someone really locks himself in it, how did he come out in the end? Is there any other passage in the room that can enter and exit?
Just when I was not sure about the reason, I heard a uniform gasp suddenly around me. The sound was sometimes far and sometimes close, as if it was coming from the door panel.
