Chapter 19
To be honest, seeing the villager sighing and regretting, I can almost imagine the end of the villa owner's family, but even so, I still want to hear the answer from the villagers.

The villager sighed again, then looked at the villa not far behind me, his eyes were a little wandering, as if recalling something terrible, and he said slowly: "The family disappeared later. ..."

What, disappeared?Both Wang Qingshan and I were a little surprised, because in our hearts, we should either die or be injured, but we never thought that the answer would disappear.

I'm very curious, a family of three, all living people, how could it be possible to disappear?So I asked the villager, how is this possible? After they moved in, no one saw them again?

The villagers stared at us blankly, and then said leisurely: "After they lived in this villa, no one has seen them come out."

I frowned, and finally understood what he meant.Think about it, a family of three lived in such a haunted house, and never saw them come out.You must know that it is impossible for a family of three not to go out, right?Don't you need to buy rice and vegetables?Don't you need to buy clothes and things?It can be said that anyone living in this world has to be in contact with this society, and it is impossible to be absolutely isolated from the outside world.

I was surprised and continued to ask: "Have you never seen them again?"

The villagers nodded, yes, everyone didn't care at first, but day by day, but no one has seen them come out, ten days, half a month, half a year, a year, their family seems to be locked up It seemed that he couldn't get out of this house, but he never came out again.

Speaking of this, the villager frowned again and said: "However... Over the years, some villagers said that they had seen their family, and said that they had seen them looking out from the window of the house. At that time, the villager was frightened. broken."

"Then how do you know they disappeared? Haven't you ever gone in to see them?" The one who spoke was Wang Qingshan on the side.

The villagers said: "The haunted house was so noisy at that time, who would dare to go in and see it? What's more, this matter has nothing to do with the villagers, so no one ever mentioned going in to find this family. Go in and check, it must be too late for them to have an accident, so no one mentions this haunted house. However, when the old village chief retired a few years ago, he brought one or two villagers into this house The house, but it is said that people did not see it after entering, but they heard someone calling the name of the village head and the others. The village head and the others were so scared that they ran out of the villa, and then locked the villa, and then no one went in. .”

Hearing this, I was thinking, if I said that Wang Qingshan had entered this villa a few days ago and had a meal in it, how would this villager react?Do you not believe it, or will you turn blue with fright?
Looking at Wang Qingshan at the side, his face turned pale at this moment, obviously he heard the villagers talk about the horror of this house, and he had entered it not long ago to eat as a guest, so it's no wonder he wasn't frightened .

The villagers told us so much, but they never mentioned anyone's name, so I asked him, has there ever been a family named Duan in this house?

"The surname Duan?" The villager thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, I knew all the tenants back then, and there was no one with the surname Duan."

I nodded, and then I thought of something, so I asked him, the tenants have no surnames, so what about the owner of this villa, what is their surname?
The villagers shook their heads and said that they had never dealt with the owner of the villa, because the owner of the villa was a foreign businessman who was not in the same class as ordinary farmers like them, so no one had interacted with them.I only know that they are businessmen from other places, and everyone calls them bosses, that's all.

But when it comes to this, the villagers added, it seems that you are very interested in this villa, but I have warned you, this house is too evil, it is best to be less curious, so as not to ask for trouble.

I smiled helplessly and told him that we did come to this house specially this time because we wanted to find a man with a good surname, and he should have lived in this villa before.

When the villagers heard this, they saw that I didn't seem to be joking, so they said that there is no one with the surname Duan among the tenants, unless the owner of the house has the surname Duan.But if you really have something to do, I suggest you go to the old village head. He should know the name of the owner of the villa. After all, he has rented out the house for the owner of the villa, and the key to the house is also with the old village head.

Hearing this, I also knew that the villager had told us almost everything he knew, so we thanked him, and then went to the old village head's house according to the path he pointed out, because I had a very strong desire to I have a hunch that Duanyang is likely to be the owner of the villa.And even if Duanyang is not the owner of the villa, the key to the villa is still in the hands of the old village chief. If he wants to enter the villa, he has to go to the old village chief's house to get the key.

According to the villagers, the old village head's house is more than a mile away from here, and we followed another small mountain road, so we found it.After walking for about ten minutes, we arrived at the old village chief's house.

The village chief lived in a large adobe tiled house. When we got to the house, an old man in his sixties greeted us. He asked who we were looking for with some doubts, and if there was something wrong?

We nodded and asked if he was the old village head here?
The old man nodded and said that he was indeed the village head here before, but he is not a village head now, and he has not done so for a long time.But he was also very curious and asked us what we could do with him.

I didn't go around with him, and told him directly that we did come to you on purpose, because I heard that you have the key to the big villa in the village, and we have encountered a trouble, and we need to go into the villa to check, so We would like to come to you to borrow the key.

When the old village chief heard this, his expression changed immediately, and he asked us in horror, what kind of trouble did we get into, and we had to go into that old house. Don't you really know the power of that old house?
I sighed, knowing that if I didn't tell the truth, the old village head in front of me might not lend us the key at will.So he glanced at Wang Qingshan, Wang Qingshan would agree, and then told the village chief everything about his daughter.

After listening to what Wang Qingshan said, the old village chief's face turned pale with fright, and he couldn't believe what he heard was true.

He calmed down, he said, the villa has been unoccupied for many years, how could there be people in it?Moreover, the iron gate outside and the gate of the villa were all locked by him, and outsiders had no keys, so how could Wang Qingshan be able to enter the house?
I said, we are just curious about this matter, so we came to ask you to borrow the key and go into the house to check it out.

The old village head nodded, and then said, I know the Duanyang you mentioned, he is the son of the owner of the villa, but they never came out after they moved into the villa.Later, I also entered the villa, but I didn't see them, and of course I didn't search for them in detail.But even if it is found, it must have already become a pile of bones.

Upon hearing this, Wang Qingshan and I looked at each other, and finally found out about Duanyang. It seems that, as I guessed before, this Duanjia is really the owner of the villa.

The old village head said that their Duan family was a businessman from Shanghai. It is said that they were from our place for several generations, but they died in the early years of liberation, and their parents moved to other places.Later, the Duan family got rich and wanted to return to the land of their hometown to build a house, so they went to our mountain to build such a big villa.It's just that I never thought that the villa built with a lot of money would turn out to be a haunted house that would take people's lives.

Speaking of this, the old village chief sighed.Then he said, if you really want to go into the villa, I can give you the key, but I have something to say up front, it is really evil there, it can be said that there are more dangers than danger, you should think about it clearly.

I nodded and said we were clear about this, then I got the key from the old village head and left the old village head's house...
