The president's dream beauties

Chapter 166 There is still hope
It was a grandiose reason, but Leng Chenfeng actually did not want a third party to intervene.No matter what, no matter how many things happen, at least he and Wan Linglong are still two people.

"That's right." Wan Linglong resolutely gave up the previous idea, but it was completely different from what Leng Chenfeng thought.She really cared about Gu Zheng's body, not like Leng Chenfeng's selfishness. "Now the boy sister has the same feeling as the boy. I always feel that there is a problem..." Wan Linglong avoided the word "ghost" timidly.

Leng Chenfeng nodded, "It feels right, more cases were found on Monday. But I don't want to say it in front of that family, and from now on, don't leave me an inch."

"What did you find?" Wan Linglong couldn't help asking.

Leng Chenfeng stopped and looked back at the house, "There is a local legend about this place."

"Legend? What is it?" Wan Linglong asked in confusion.

Leng Chenfeng didn't speak, and pointed to the depths of the mountain forest, where there was a very narrow path. "It's right there, the forest guard here, just follow me and you will know."

"There are forest guards here?" Wan Linglong was completely ignorant of this situation, and Leng Chenfeng was with her all the time, but he didn't know how he knew about this situation.

"It's them on Monday." Leng Chenfeng said with a faint smile, and put his arms around Wan Linglong.Today's weather is very good, but in the mountain city, the wind is still a bit harsh on the body.

Passing through a small piece of woods, a small wooden house appeared just next to the mountain.The wind and rain made it look a bit old, but the surroundings of the hut were cleaned up, and even the weeds on the ground were cleaned up.It can be seen from this that the owner of this hut usually cherishes it very much.

The door was suddenly pushed open, Zhou Yi appeared at the door, smiled and nodded, "Come here?"

It seemed that he knew that the two of them would come here early on, and he seemed to have been staying here for this reason.

"I didn't know he was here." Leng Chenfeng only said one sentence, but walked directly into the room with Wan Linglong in his arms.

The house was very warm, and an old man was smoking a pipe with his back facing them.And the fire in the stove in front of him was also burning extremely vigorously, and the flames shone with warm light at the mouth of the stove.

"I know why you are here, but I would like to advise you to leave early! In the current world, people's hearts are terrible! You have no idea who is standing behind you, let's go, let's go!" the old man's voice carried The penetrating sense of pathos seems to come from the distant past.

"We know we want Xiaoka back, and we won't leave unless we can't find him." Wan Linglong replied resolutely, clenched into fists.

"Huh?" The old man seemed surprised, he was taken aback for a moment, then turned around slowly, and looked Wan Linglong up and down.

"How old are you?" The old man seemed very interested in Wan Linglong.

"Eighteen." Wan Linglong replied hesitantly, she didn't understand why the old man suddenly asked her name.

The old man let out a long sigh, lowered his eyes, and knocked the cigarette stick on the ground with his hand.The ground shone brightly and dimly, with bright red shreds of tobacco.

"My sister was about the same age back then, but she..." the old man said sadly, and wiped his eyes with his hands. "When she just graduated and returned to her hometown, she was told by the family that she was invited to be a teacher. Our family was also very happy. This is a good thing. I didn't expect that she would never come back after she left."

"What's wrong with her?" Wan Linglong felt something was wrong, so she asked.

At this time, Monday stood up and explained: "I found some relevant information, and the government at that time also filed a record on this matter. It just said that the old man's sister left voluntarily, and there were some witnesses at that time—"

"But she never came home at all!" The old man suddenly became furious, and the smoke slammed on the ground. "They're lying. They're the same people. They bribed the government at the time, saying that my sister eloped with someone. How is that possible! My sister is still a big girl and doesn't know many people at all."

"However, in the subsequent comprehensive search, nothing was wrong there." Zhou Yi explained helplessly.

"I know, they killed my sister. Just because she found out what they were doing in private, my sister told me a lot of things. I was too young to understand. Now that I think about it, it was the family who killed me. ..." The old man's voice became low, with a faint sob.

"I'm sorry to remind you of these sad things." Wan Linglong also felt uncomfortable for the old man, and walked over to comfort her in a low voice.

"But, that's an old story, what does it have to do with that boy's disappearance?" Leng Chenfeng who had been silent all this time suddenly asked back.

"He's not dead, I know, he's still in that house." When the old man raised his face, Wan Linglong was surprised to see that the old man's face actually had a frightened and uncertain expression.

"He still wants to attack the children. Xiaoka is not the first one, nor will he be the last. If you really want to, go to the town and check what happened in recent years!" said the old man He got up and hurriedly pushed them out of the house.

"Let's go, and never come back to me." The old man growled through the small wooden window, and with a "click", the door was locked behind him.

"It's no wonder he was terrified." Zhou Yi said helplessly, looking at the window.

Leng Chenfeng turned around and walked towards the path when he came, "I don't think so. On Monday, you speed up and go to the town to check what the old man said. Linglong, let's go to that small building again. We must be fast. Otherwise, a few more lives will be lost."

"Ah?" Before Wan Linglong could cry out, Leng Chenfeng dragged her to the depths of the forest.

After passing through the sparse forest, a high wall stands in front of you as soon as you turn a corner.Because it was the afternoon and there was plenty of sunshine, this small building looked like a charming young woman, still possessing her elegance and maturity.And those mottled traces disappeared under the cover of the sun.

Wan Linglong went up first, and when she wanted to ring the doorbell on the wall, she was stopped by Leng Chenfeng.With a push of his hand, the door was gently pushed open by him, but there was no one in the yard.

"Follow me." Leng Chenfeng pulled Wan Linglong behind him, and walked towards the small building first.

"Wow—" A sudden loud cry startled Wan Linglong.The two looked up, and there was a sound of "fluttering", but a big black bird flew overhead, stopped on the high wall, tilted its head from side to side and looked at the two of them.

"It's all right." Leng Chenfeng comforted, stretched out his hand and pulled Wan Linglong to his side, then turned around and opened the door with confidence.

"Why are you here again?" An old voice sounded from behind, and after turning around, Wan Linglong saw the old gatekeeper walking in slowly from outside the gate.

Wan Linglong looked at him in surprise, turned around and hid behind Leng Chenfeng, her teeth chattering.Didn't this old man die a few days ago?How could it appear alive in front of them again?While Wan Linglong was panicking, she felt Leng Chenfeng gently hold her hand.

When she raised her small face to look, she saw Leng Chenfeng's indifferent face, and following the hint in his eyes, Wan Linglong was shocked immediately.

At this time, the sun is very abundant, so the scenery outside is extremely bright.Wan Linglong saw that when the old man walked over, the shadow behind him was dragged for a long time.

It is impossible for ghosts to have shadows, this is what Gu Zheng told Wan Linglong while joking.

"Are you human or—" Wan Linglong couldn't help blurting out, even though Leng Chenfeng kept holding her hand lightly, he couldn't stop the girl's curiosity.

"Hehehe, someone said I was dead, right?" The old man raised his eyes indifferently, and continued walking towards the door without being surprised or angry.

"Then are you?" Wan Linglong couldn't help asking, and followed her.

Leng Chenfeng sighed softly, and had no choice but to follow Wan Linglong quickly.

"What do you think?" The old man stopped suddenly when he walked to the door, and turned around. In the shadow of the house, the old man's face looked dry and sallow.

"Ah!" Wan Linglong was startled, and flashed behind Leng Chenfeng.

Leng Chenfengjun couldn't help smiling, stretched out his hand to pull the girl and said: "He is a human being, you can rest assured about that." After that, he walked into the hall with the old man, "Then, can you explain what happened? What's going on?" Leng Chenfeng said very politely, and his deep eyes kept staring at the old man.

"It's my twin brother. We've been living here. But not many people saw us, so we misunderstood. You can wait for your subordinate to come back, and he will know as soon as you ask him." The old man replied lightly, with his head Without looking back, he walked towards the stairs dedicated to the servants.

"You may not believe in ghosts, but what I want to tell you is that there are really ghosts in this building. If you want to know anything else, come down with me!" Although the old man walked extremely slowly, his speed was fast. Don't be slow, the figure has disappeared at the top of the stairs while speaking.

Leng Chenfeng walked in front, Wan Linglong followed carefully.Turning the corner, they saw the old man waiting for them on the stairs.

"There's a hidden compartment under here, I think you've discovered it a long time ago." The old man looked up at Wan Linglong, then bent down to open the hidden cabinet with difficulty.

There are only some sundries in it, and nothing else.When Wan Linglong approached, she was stopped by Leng Chenfeng, who squatted down to pick up a small object.

A yo-yo, a cheap one, the sort of toy boys often play with.Leng Chenfeng looked left and right in his hand, and handed it to Wan Linglong who was beside him.

When Wan Linglong stretched out her hand to take it, she saw with keen eyes that two words, Xiaoka, were written on one side of the ball with a blue marker.

"He really stayed here before!" Wan Linglong became excited, holding the toy tightly with her hands.From this point of view, everything Wan Linglong saw in the dream actually happened.Thinking of what happened later, Wan Linglong became more confident that the boy was not dead.

"Can you explain?" Leng Chenfeng instinctively pulled Wan Linglong up, stepped forward and asked urgently.At this moment, he no longer believed in this old man at all, besides him in this small building, he was his so-called "twin brother".Since it was proved that the boy had stayed here, the old man who died in this life cannot escape the responsibility.

The old man bowed his body completely as if he didn't hear it, and he didn't know what he was looking for.

"Help him?" Wan Linglong couldn't stand it anymore, she pushed Leng Chenfeng and asked.

At this time, the old man also stopped, turned around from the cabinet, and seemed to be short of breath. "I'm old and not strong enough, come and help me!"

Leng Chenfeng glanced at it lightly, then fell down silently, and with a "pop" forcefully in his hands, a hidden secret door was opened.

"It's going to be here." The old man breathed heavily, looking a little excited.When he turned around again, his hands full of veins were holding a thick book, and the gilded characters on it had become blurred, making it impossible to make out what the characters were. "The stories you are looking for are all in it." The old man handed the book to Wan Linglong, then straightened up trembling.

"What is this?" Wan Linglong asked while opening the notebook.

"It's that person's punishment note, which contains the names of all the children, and things that he thinks should be punished. Some are..." The old man's body shrank into a ball, his face was immersed in the shadow of the stairs, as if he was afraid of something .

"He has been physically punishing those children?" Wan Linglong exclaimed, flipping through the pages of the book.

The old man exhaled lightly, as if his strength had been exhausted just now. "He believes that everything should be in order, and that everything can be managed with a system, so that good results can be obtained."

"Then he still remembers so much." Leng Chenfeng stood aside, scanned Wan Linglong's open notebook, and couldn't help sneering.

"Let's go to the basement to have a look. I remember there is still a good desk, chairs and so on." The old man seemed a little tired, waved his hands, turned around and walked slowly downstairs.

Wan Linglong quickly closed the notebook and followed, "Then, what about those children? What happened to them?"

The old man replied without turning his head: "The records are very clear, the final results of those children." The old man seemed unwilling to mention it, Wan Linglong saw that he was unwilling to talk, thinking that there was a record in the book, so she didn't pursue the question further.

After walking down the stairs this time, the old man reached out and "snapped" the wall lamp to light up the whole staircase.Wan Linglong was surprised, and looked back at Leng Chenfeng, only to hear the old man chuckle slightly, "I wanted to scare you away last time, you know that there are many people who came out of curiosity, but in the end..."

As he spoke, the old man gently pushed open the basement door, and a gust of cold wind hit his face.

"What happened in the end?" Wan Linglong followed carefully, and asked again.

The old man moved down step by step, and his voice became distant and close, "What will happen later, I just looked around, and then they all left. Who cares about old stories from decades ago, people Death is over, people now only see what is in front of them.”

Wan Linglong suddenly understood the old man's cold attitude before.There should be many people like her and Leng Chenfeng who came here for fun.Because of curiosity, they ran in casually, dragged the old man to look around, and then left without looking back, continuing their own stories.

In the basement, there was indeed a table, just as the old man said, and it was clean without any dust.

"Do you come down often?" Leng Chenfeng asked suspiciously.

"Yeah, people think a lot when they get old. I often come down and sit here, think about the past, think about the things that happened." The old man didn't seem to want to explain.

"Crack!" Suddenly, it turned out that Leng Chenfeng took the note from Wan Linglong's hand and threw it on the table. "You should be among them, right? Or your brother who died not long ago?" Leng Chenfeng asked coldly.

The old man was stunned, raised his cloudy eyes to stare at Leng Chenfeng, and asked with trembling lips: "You, how do you know?"

"Simple, your age, and you know everything here. Why don't you just tell us everything that happened. Why waste our time, who are you working for now?"

"How could this be?" Wan Linglong asked in surprise, with a puzzled expression.She couldn't believe that the old man was still hiding it from them.As Leng Chenfeng said, if this is the case, who is the old man hiding for?

With a long sigh, the old man stretched out his hand and sat down on a chair. "I didn't do anything for anyone. Believe it or not, it's up to you. When people get old, they feel sinful when they think of the past. I want people to know what happened decades ago."

"What about Xiaoka's disappearance? We heard that many children have disappeared here over the years. You know about these things, right?" Wan Linglong said angrily.

"As I said, when you are old, you can see many things, but you can't do anything about them." The old man's face was immersed in the darkness, and his expression could not be seen clearly.After hearing his long sigh, he said again: "You two are different. I can see that you are kind-hearted. If you really want to save Xiaoka and those children, you should read this notebook and then I'll tell you all, so what happened."

"I was too young and made many mistakes. The biggest thing is to be obedient, obey those people, and watch many things happen. I dare not stop or speak..." The old man's voice finally became low. There was a low whimper, like the sound of wind coming from afar.

"That's why you survived." Leng Chenfeng said suddenly, and the old man looked at him with tears in his eyes, "If I could say at that time, even just one sentence, maybe..."

"No possibility, if that's the case, there is only one possibility, that is, even you can't survive, so you wouldn't be here today to tell us everything." Wan Linglong interrupted. "What you have experienced is no longer something ordinary people can bear. No one has the right to blame you, and neither can you!"

The old man finally broke down in sobs, covering his face with his old hands and screaming.
