"That empty house, um... about [-] square meters. When you enter the door, there is an empty yard full of weeds and no pavement. It's just a room without partitions. Ah, yes, there are no partitions. This is actually quite It's strange, such a big yard, half of it is an open space, half of it is a house, and there are only pillars in the house, no walls... From the beginning, I have the impression that it has always been an empty house, no one lives in it, and the paint on the two doors has fallen off. There is no lock on the door, and it slams when the wind blows. By the way, the house has no door and no windows, it is... a strange house."

"What's in there?"

"There is nothing, it is empty, there is no table or stool, so it is called an empty room."

"What happened after you went in?"

"No."

"But you've been in there for a long time."

"Ah, yes, I stayed for a long time... Let me think about it... At that time... At that time, I seemed to be doing something, but it seemed... It didn't seem to have anything to do with the empty house. A group of us boys, went into the house to see There is nothing, and there are no monsters... Oh, I remembered, it was my brother who said at the time that we had to wait until the monsters appeared at night and catch the monsters. We were making traps at that time. In fact, they were all children fooling around , Just dig a hole, dig a hole or something."

"Did you unearth something?"

"No. We didn't have any tools at the time, so we just dug a few times with our bare hands. We didn't make a hole, and we were all pulling weeds. Well... it was weeds. At that time, someone quarreled with my brother, saying that he had come up with an idea. , I’m so exhausted that I can’t make a trap.”

"Did no one in that empty house village think about dealing with it? There must be a reason for staying?"

"I really don't know that."

"Do you remember the location of the empty house? This is the map of the village back then, and this is the factory map. Can you still find the location of the empty house?"

"Hiss—this map only encloses a piece of land, and there are no houses in the village?"

"Yes, the records are not that exhaustive."

"This... this... my old house is probably here. If you want to go to the vacant house, you should go here, and then... in this direction. Specifically, I really can't find it out."

"Okay, thank you, I will trouble you again this time."

"It's nothing."

On July 2015, 7, Wang Feng, a member of the construction team of the construction factory, was contacted.Audio file 22.wav.

"Here, this is the one. When we demolished the house, we demolished here first. No one lives here, and the yard is surrounded by an earthen wall. The house is made of wood, with wooden pillars inside. It is easy to dismantle."

"If it's here, the first phase of the factory didn't enclose this area, did it?"

"No. At that time, there was no such thing as the first phase and the second phase. They said that they would build a factory, and then organized the villagers to move, and the construction team also started working. Our team leader went around and saw that the house was empty. We demolished it first. Come on, don’t wait. Ask the people in the village, and they all say that the house will be demolished as soon as it’s demolished, and it’s okay. Later, the house was almost demolished, and when the factory was built, the drawings didn’t come here, so it was empty there.”

"After expansion, the park will be located here."

"correct."

"You were also in the construction team when the park was built, right?"

"Well, yes, but at that time we were under orders and weeded and planted trees."

"Did anything special happen during that process?"

"Something special? Nope."

"For example, something was dug up, or something happened in the construction team?"

"No, none at all."

On July 2015, 7, I searched historical documents and found a copy of Jiao County Government Chronicle before the founding of the People's Republic of China, which recorded a criminal case where lynching was used to kill a local villager. The details are unknown.

Attachment: Photocopies of documents.

2015年7月26日，接到原焦县村人和红星工厂工人蒋美芬电话。电话录音201507260914.mp3。

"Xiao Liu, do you still remember Aunt Jiang? You just met me in the park, and you contacted me later to ask about the vacancy."

"I remember, of course I remember. Auntie, have you remembered anything again?"

"Not really. But I have contacted someone for you, my aunt, she is an old man in the village, she knows a lot of things!"

"Oh! That's great! Would you like to see me?"

"Yes, but she is very old, so take it easy when you ask."

"Of course. Thank you so much!"

On July 2015, 7, met Tong Jiang.Audio file 30.wav.

"Xiaofen said, do you want to ask about the village?"

"Yes. It's mostly about the empty house and the strange things going on in the village."

"Strange thing?"

"For example, haunted."

"..."

"Grandma, just tell me about the vacant house. Whose house did that belong to?"

"There, it turned out to be the ancestral hall of the village."

"what?"

"Ancestral hall? How could this be deserted and turned into an empty house?"

"Because of the lynching."

"What? Boy, what do you mean by lynching?"

"Lynchings in rural areas and other places are mostly chosen in places such as ancestral halls. We found out that when the village used lynchings before the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was handled as a case by the government. The ancestral hall should be abandoned because of this, right? "

"Boss, have you already thought of this?"

"I only thought of it when I heard about the ancestral hall."

"Phew... that was the last lynching in the village. That woman, I call her Sister Hua, married in from an outside village. Her surname is not Hua, but she can weave beautiful flower bracelets for every little lady in our village. Made it up, and sold it in the city. That’s how she met that wild man. They called that man a wild man, ha ha! That man had nothing to do with Sister Hua! At that time, it was a hooligan in the city who wanted to pull flowers. Sister, that man opened a shop next to him, came out to help Sister Hua, and that’s how we met. Sister Hua later went to sell flowers in the city, and those hooligans didn’t dare to come here at the door of his shop. The two of them It was nothing all the time, but that bastard didn't believe it. That bastard... is really not a thing! He is really not a thing!"

"Grandma, calm down and take care of your body."

"Huh...huh...well...I'm fine. I have to say this, before I go into the coffin!"

"Auntie..."

"It's okay. That bastard beat Sister Hua, but it didn't count. He went to the village head, beat the gong, and called everyone in the village! They dragged Sister Hua all the way, from his house to the ancestral hall." ... that road was covered with blood... blood all the way! Sister Hua screamed all the way, and then... she couldn't make a sound..."

"Grandma, wipe your tears and be smooth."

"Grandma Jiang, don't worry, speak slowly."

"Yeah. Huh... I followed behind and wanted to save Sister Hua, but there were so many people, I didn't dare to go there, I didn't dare to go... They entered the ancestral hall, and there were people inside and out. I know There was a hole in the back wall of the ancestral hall, and you could see inside, so you went around. At that time, just after nightfall, many people lit torches. They tied up Sister Hua, like a pig to be killed. The beast held a knife and cut Sister Hua's throat... the blood was sprayed high, I saw Sister Hua staring at me... just looking at me like that..."

"Auntie..."

"Then they started picking on my sister's face."

"what!"
