Chapter 373

"Young man, who are you looking for?"

The gatekeeper seemed to have noticed that I had been paying attention to this museum for a long time, and then asked me.

"Is there no one else around here?"

I asked.

The man turned back, looked around, and then said seriously, "There is no one you are looking for here, so you should leave quickly."

He seemed anxious, urging me on.

"This museum is not open to the public?"

I asked.

"What?"

The gatekeeper thought he hadn't heard clearly and asked me, and then said seriously, "There is nothing in here. If you go to the museum, you are looking in the wrong place. It is by the river."

He told me to leave quickly.

"I'm looking for someone."

I said.

"Looking for someone?"

The gatekeeper seemed even more surprised, and then said, "I am the only one here, who are you looking for?"

To be honest, I really don't know what I am looking for here, but the address of this note is left here.

I don't even know the name of the old man who entrusted me with this job.

I find this matter very suspenseful.

"Go quickly."

The man was getting anxious.

As if afraid of me breaking in.

"I want to go in and have a look."

I still hesitated to say these words.

"No." He replied decisively, "This is not the place you should be."

His face was ashen, as if he had experienced something terrible. As soon as he heard me saying that I wanted to go in and take a look, he became restless.

"Who are you anyway?"

he asked me.

"You don't know me."

I said.

The man frowned slightly, then looked at me carefully.

When I was about to leave, suddenly the man stopped me. He stared at me in surprise and asked me, "Young man, did Uncle Li ask you to come here?"

"Uncle Li?"

I was a little surprised.

"Then let's go."

"An old man?"

I asked, and I described the old man's face.

"It's him, that's right." He seemed to be looking forward to it, and even became a little excited.

"You know him?"

I was a little surprised.

"Yes, I have been waiting for many years, and he is finally here."

I told him about Uncle Li, and he sighed, saying that he knew those sons, but he didn't expect that they were all such people. He had already told Uncle Li to follow him and guard the museum.

At least it won't end badly.

"Just call me Uncle Zheng."

The man invited me to guard, saying that it was very windy outside, so I should go in to take shelter from the wind and talk.

It turns out that Uncle Zheng and Uncle Li were the security guards of this museum many years ago, and they have even stayed here for most of their lives.

At that time, the museum was calm and nothing happened.

Until that happened.

That was more than ten years ago.

It was considered a big event in the entire Jiangcheng, which led to the later relocation of the museum.

It must have been in the middle of the night.

It is said that there are some unlucky things in the museum, which means that there are always sneaky noises in the middle of the night, and people on patrol have seen figures walking back and forth in the museum.

But without exception, their faces could not be seen clearly.

After that, it was rumored that the museum was haunted.

At that time, the authorities said it was just a rumor and they just needed to keep the museum safe.

But until that night... Uncle Zheng said that he would never forget what happened that day!

It must have been in the middle of the night, when it was their turn to be on duty. At that time, there was almost no one in the museum. It was originally closed at six o'clock in the afternoon.

It was deserted all around.

But just when Uncle Li patrolled to the third floor.

Suddenly he heard a scream.

He was confused, so he took the flashlight and ran towards the place where the sound came from.

Sure enough, I happened to see Uncle Zheng with a horrified look on his face.

"What’s wrong with you?"

he asked then.

"Ghost, there is a ghost."

Uncle Zheng seemed to have seen something unclean. His flashlight on the ground was scattered, and the light shone on that painting.

It seemed like a very ordinary picture, but Uncle Li saw a person in the picture wearing a very strange jade pendant around his neck.

"The wait is finally here."

Uncle Zheng was panicked at that time, but looking back now, he can still see Uncle Li's shocked expression, but he seemed satisfied, as if he was waiting for something.

"It's that jade pendant."

At this time, Uncle Zheng told me.

That jade pendant belongs to Uncle Li and is exactly the same as the jade pendant of the man in the picture.

Since then, Uncle Li disappeared, and then a fire burned down the entire museum.

But the strange thing is that the fire only burned some cultural relics and things in the museum, but the fire did not spread to the surrounding streets or even other buildings. It seemed that the fire was just burning inside the house.

The fire lasted for three days and three nights before it was extinguished.

At that time, everyone paid great attention to it. The strange thing was that they seemed to hear a cry for help coming from inside the house at night!
