Chapter 44

[Recommended a good new book "Bloody Road" which is an oriental fantasy. There is a link below this page.]

[I said there are 10,000 words tonight, but everyone in the book review area is really urging me too much. First, post the 5,000 words I just wrote. I am still continuing to write. No matter what, I will guarantee that it will be 10,000! Moreover, even after 12 o'clock, I will continue to write! The two chapters tomorrow and Sunday will be updated as usual! Today's 10,000 words are not tomorrow's task! The two chapters tomorrow are still two chapters!! Tired...]-

Several people were confused and couldn't help asking Xiao Lei, but Xiao Lei shook his head and said nothing. His face was a little serious, and he just replied lightly: "Just listen to me tonight, don't ask anything else. If you see anything strange, don't scream!"

Among these people, only Lei Hu had really seen Xiao Lei's ability. He couldn't help but want to ask, but when he saw Xiao Lei's warning gaze, he finally closed his mouth obediently.

For an entire afternoon, under Xiao Lei's order, Lei Roaring Lin Shanshan and Ruhua moved all the sheets and other items in the room to the hall. Although Ruhua felt a little angry, Lin Shanshan was extremely obedient to Xiao Lei, so she had to shut up and stop talking.

Xiao Lei was busy on the table in the hall alone. A Qiankun bag was hidden in his arms, and there were various things in it. At this moment, he took it out of his arms. The other three were just wondering why they didn't see Xiao Lei bringing anything when they came. Now they don't know where he made so many messy utensils.

Xiao Lei carefully drew three spiritual talismans, sighed, and thought to himself: The best cinnabar that I finally blackmailed from Xiaoyaozi. After drawing these low-level spiritual talismans, I will lose a lot if I lose a lot if I lose a lot. I have to find a way to recover the loss from where to go.

Thinking of this, his eyes couldn't help but look at Lei Huo moving things in the hall. Lei Huo suddenly felt cold in his heart. His huge body rushed upstairs at extremely agile speed, not daring to be seen by Xiao Lei again.

Xiao Lei took out another handful of jade tokens. He won the bet from the old monster Qing Lingzi when he was in Mount Emei.

Speaking of which, that old guy Qing Lingzi has a really... boring temper!

One day, he pulled Xiao Lei to count how many branches there were on a tree. The two bet whether it was an odd or a double tree. In the end, the two counted for three days and three nights before counting. After Xiao Lei secretly hid a branch, he won such a jade card from Qing Lingzi.

It is said that this jade tablet has the effect of warding off evil spirits. Ordinary evil spirits and wild ghosts cannot get close to them, so it is best to use them to defend themselves.

He held it in his hand, thought about it and then quietly pulled Lin Shanshan over, solemnly stuffed the jade token into her hand, and whispered: "Please put this thing with you and hang it on your clothes at night, don't take it off."

Although Lin Shanshan didn't know why Xiao Lei suddenly gave her something, she saw that he had a solemn expression and was happy in her heart, she immediately stopped it. When she looked at Xiao Lei, she couldn't help but look a little obsessed. Xiao Lei sighed secretly, feeling a little complicated in her heart, but she couldn't figure it out for a moment.

It was not until the evening that the few people finally settled down. Ruhua looked at the appearance of the hall and shouted: "Xiao Lei, what the hell are you doing?"

I saw that in the hall, on the door panels and on the windows, there were all talismans on the talismans. The words "ghost paintings" were written with red cinnabar. Xiao Lei had a cinnabar pen in his ears and a peach wood sword in his hand, which completely turned the table in front of him into a temporary platform.

Xiao Lei was holding a peach wood sword in one hand, and he was holding a Taoist talisman in his hand. He was muttering something, and suddenly his wrist shook. A few squeaks, the talisman suddenly burned, and a ball of flame emerged from his hand and turned into a ray of blue smoke and drifted away.

Xiao Lei immediately focused on the smoke, with a solemn expression on his face.

I saw the smoke gathering and floating around on the roof of the hall. The smoke gradually condensed under a chandelier on the left side of the roof, and then slowly dissipated.

A glimmer flashed in Xiao Lei's eyes, and he immediately pointed at the chandelier and shouted: "Lei Roar, go and take down that light! Look at what's on it!"

Lei Hu immediately moved a chair and stood up, pulled off the glass crystal lamp with force, glanced at it, and shouted, "Yi? There is a wind chime here!"

Xiao Lei nodded: "Yes! It's indeed this thing."

He walked over, took the chandelier from Lei Hu's hand, and took out a string of small wind chimes from the chandelier. He didn't know how long the wind chimes had been hanging, and it was covered with dust. After looking closely, he saw that there were some symbols on the wind chimes.

"What is this?" The first person asked Ruhua. She was irritable and couldn't help but say, "What kind of trick are you doing today?"

Xiao Lei smiled and said, "Is it a ghost trick? It seems that it is a true 'ghost' trick."

He threw the wind chime into the trash can, patted the dust in his hand, and smiled, "You must have heard of what it means to hang wind chimes at home?"

Lin Shanshan thought for a while and said, "When I was young, my elders died, and I saw the old man hanging a wind chime at home, saying that he could invite Yin Ling..."

Xiao Lei nodded and said, "Yes, some of the fur spells of Xuanmen are also circulated among ordinary people. There is a saying among the people that wind chimes can invite gods or ghosts to come... But most of those statements are wrong."

He walked to everyone casually and smiled, "I know that among the Taoist magic, there is indeed a magic weapon called "Vajra Bell" that specifically invites gods to help. However, the condition for using this "Vajra Bell" must be that the user has a certain amount of magic power, and ordinary people cannot do it." He pointed to the bell he hung on the roof in the afternoon, and smiled, "That was what I hung in the afternoon, and it is the real "Vajra Bell."

He continued to laugh and said, "But there are some specialties in hanging this kind of vajra bell. The most important thing is that the place you hang must not be wrong! When we look at the Feng Shui of a house, we must first calculate the 'auspicious position' and 'bad position' in the house. For example, the bell I hang is the 'auspicious position' in the house. Hanging the bell in this place can improve the righteousness and wealth in the room, increase the popularity of living in the house, and be prosperous. But if you hang it to the 'bad position'..."

He pointed to the place where the chandelier was pulled down by Lei Roar just now and sneered: "The so-called 'evil position' is the 'six evil position', which is the most dangerous position in the room with the strongest yin energy! If you hang the 'Vajra Bell' in this position, it would be fine if you hang it up with an ordinary person without magic. At most, it would attract some lonely ghosts to wander around at night, and it would dissipate over time... But if a man with magic power hangs the Vajra Bell in this position... Hehe..."

"What will happen?" Ruhua stared at her eyes.

Xiao Lei curled his smile and said seriously: "It depends on the magic power of the bell. If it is just ordinary magic power, it will only attract a few evil ghosts, Li Po, or a few monsters who specialize in sucking yin energy... If... if it is a person with strong magic power, hehe, then the people living in this house will have bad luck, and there will be no creatures within a hundred meters around, and there will be no grass left! And... the owner of the house will probably cut off his offspring! There will be a thousand-year-old evil ghost king to be attracted. At that time, the people living in the house will not be left behind! No one is close to you!"

Everyone couldn't help but change their color slightly when they heard him terrible.

Xiao Lei sighed: "As soon as I came in today, I felt that this manor was a bit weird, but I couldn't understand where the weirdness was. Although I learned some spells, I had no experience after all, and I almost got deceived! Humph!"

He opened the window, pointed to the surrounding lawn outside the villa, and said lightly: "Look! The lawns around this are newly flipped! They are all newly planted, all new grass! Even the ground is very soft, and it is obvious that they have just been transplanted! Lei Hu, I ask you, you have a lawn at home, how often do you usually turn it over?"

"Well, it's only once a year."

"By the way." Xiao Lei smiled and said, "I also heard that even if you are turning over the lawn, it is mostly in autumn and winter. Only rich people will spend money to renovate the lawns of the manor around your home, because the grass withered in autumn and winter and looks bad. But now spring has just passed, and it is the season when everything is revived and the spring is warm and flowers blooming. There is no need to renovate and transplant new grass, right?"

After he said this, everyone immediately understood a little. Sure enough, the grass outside was bright in color, and it looked like it had been transplanted for a while. But it was not autumn and winter now, there was no people nearby and the lawn was trampled on on weekdays, so why should it be renovated?

"Lei Hu, all the daily things here are managed by that Bo, right? The funds for maintaining this manor are also in his hands, right?"

Lei Hu nodded and said, "Yes, there is an account managed by Fang Bo. Every season there will be a sum of money on the account. Fang Bo has been working in our family for more than ten years, and we trust him very much."

"Hmph..." Xiao Lei sneered: "Also, today, the Uncle Fang just came in and delivered things and left. He lives in a small house outside the manor, right? Why not let him live in it?"

Lei Hu thought for a while: "I originally asked him to live in it, but he refused. Although Bo Fang was just a worker hired by our family, we never treat him as an outsider. It's just that he insisted on living in the worker's room outside and refused to move in."

Xiao Lei nodded and said lightly: "I understand that matter very well."

Lei Hu changed color and said, "Are you talking about Fang Bo? He is an old worker in our family, so he won't..."

Xiao Lei shook his head: "No need to say more. If it is convenient, call your sister immediately and say she wants her to check the expense details in the manor over the past year, and then she will understand."

Lei Hu had a little disbelief on his face, but he still called. Xiao Lei just stood by the window and looked at the sunset in the distance outside.

The sunset is as bright as blood, and it is a bit scary. The afterglow of the sunset pulls down the shadow of the mountain slanted, as if the manors at the foot of the mountain are shrouded in the shadows.

After a while, Lei Hu put down the phone and frowned and said, "I looked at it, there is nothing wrong. The daily lawn renovation of the manor on the account is done through a professional company in the city. There is nothing suspicious. The detailed expenditure is also normal."

Xiao Lei frowned and suddenly took the phone. He first called the city's number checking station and found the phone number of the professional company specializing in maintaining the lawn of the manor. Then he called again.

The three people next to him were all a little confused. They watched Xiao Lei call the company. Xiao Lei's expression was calm, and he was just ummy and ahhhh on the phone. After a few minutes, his face changed slightly and he slowly said to the phone: "Thank you."

After putting down the phone, he looked cold, sneered twice, and then said, "I'm afraid I'm right!"

He sat down slowly, tapped the coffee table in front of him with his fingers, and said slowly: "The company said that they would send a group of people to renovate the lawn and surrounding trees every month. Later, he found that the soil here seemed to be unsuitable for plant production, so he simply stopped planting trees within a hundred meters around the manor, and only renovated the turf! Because in that case, the cost would be less..."

His eyes flashed with a gleam: "Renovate the lawn once a month! Hehe, it's interesting, it's really interesting!"

"But...how could this happen? On the account at home..." Lei Huqi said.

Xiao Lei shook his head: "Silly, the people from that company said that there is another account every month to pay their company a monthly fee for the lawn renovation, and... it has been 25 years!"

“Twenty-five years!!”

The three of them exclaimed at the same time.

Xiao Lei shook his head and said, "Since that's the case, then what I said is absolutely nothing wrong. This house has been set up with an extremely evil formation. Hehe, Lei Roar, your family rarely comes here on weekdays, right?"

"Well, I usually only come once a year." Lei Hu said slowly: "And since I grew up, I rarely come. I usually come to visit when I am free at most, and I rarely stay here."

Ruhua stared at her eyes and said, "You can use this place once a year? Oh my God... Since that's the case, why do you still buy such a large piece of land? Isn't this too luxurious??"

Xiao Lei changed his past laughter and whispered: "Okay, now is not the time to discuss this!"

He glanced at Lei Roar and whispered: "Oh, it's a good thing you don't live here on weekdays, otherwise...hehe..." Although his face was laughing, the chill in the laughter made people feel scared when they heard it.

Ruhua couldn't help but say, "What you said is so terrible, let's go now! Didn't the gorilla drive here? We will run away immediately! It's better if we don't stay in this kind of wilderness!"

Xiao Lei glanced at her: "Run? Why run? Humph, a small broken formation, I don't take it seriously yet. If you listen to me tonight, I will naturally be able to solve it..."

But he thought to himself: I finally learned so many strange magics on Mount Emei, and finally I had a chance to use them. How could I miss such a rare opportunity?

Lin Shanshan's face turned a little pale, and she couldn't help but leaned against Xiao Lei a little, and said softly: "I think I'd better leave. You said this is so weird, we don't need to cause trouble."

Lei Hu looked depressed and suddenly shouted, "Damn it! I don't believe it! Uncle Fang is a good person. He carried me on the mountain when he was a child. He would not harm our family!"

Xiao Lei said lightly: "Know people, their faces, but their hearts. If you don't believe it, then you should explain what's going on with the lawn outside?"

Lei Hu stuttered: "Maybe...it may be because the soil here is not suitable for turf growth and needs frequent maintenance..."

"Hmph!" Xiao Lei sneered: "Then why didn't he tell you! Why did he secretly spend money to renovate? Where did the money for spending money to renovate the lawn in the past fifteen years? And, what's the matter with the King Kong bell on the ceiling?"

Lei Hu immediately became speechless and couldn't speak a word. He just clenched his fists and stared at Xiao Lei.

"Me, I'll call to tell my sister!" Lei Hu immediately grabbed the phone and was about to dial the number.

Xiao Lei quickly grabbed the phone and said with a smile: "There is no need."

He suddenly felt aroused in his heart, pulled Lei Luo and walked aside, whispering: "Are there anyone else in this place except for your family?"

"Some." Lei Hu said immediately: "This place was originally bought by our Uncle Hotan's family. Our two families are family friends, and this place is considered under the names of our two families. I rarely come here on weekdays. After all, I don't like this kind of traveling around the country or the river. But..."

Speaking of this, Lei Hu's face turned pale.

Xiao Lei sneered: "It's because Tian Zhen's family often come here for vacation, right? Especially Miss Tian Ke'er, girls, especially girls with her personality, they must like beautiful places with beautiful mountains and rivers the most. Does she often come to live in this place?"

Lei Hu stuttered: "No, not only sister Ke'er... it's... Uncle Tian used to come here often, but also Ke'er's mother. Ke'er's mother likes painting the most. She likes to stay here for half of the year... and then..."

After speaking, Lei Hu's face became paler and his tone became more and more solemn. Finally, he suddenly exclaimed, his face full of shock, staring at Xiao Lei.

Xiao Lei narrowed his eyes: "Well, what a terrible trick! Hehe..."

He sighed: "I guess Tian Ke'er's mother is no longer alive, right? I ask you, was her mother weak and sickly during her lifetime?"

"Yes... but everyone thinks that she is living here because the conditions are too poor. On weekdays, the moisture at the foot of the mountain is too heavy, which invades the body and is too weak. So, after giving birth to Ke'er, she died soon."

Xiao Lei nodded and continued to ask, "Where is that Ke'er? She is not in good health, right?"

"Yes, she has been a little weak since she was a child, and Uncle Tian said that Ke'er is in a bad state. He originally wanted Ke'er to learn some family-born skills to strengthen his body, but it was not possible. Ke'er's body was born too weak and could not practice martial arts..."

The more Lei Hu spoke, the lower his voice became, and the expression on his face gradually showed a little horror...

Ruhua and Lin Shanshan next to them were also frightened. Lin Shanshan couldn't help but remember Xiao Lei's words just now:

"The owner of the house may be cut off his offspring!"

Xiao Lei sighed: "The Tian family is only Ke'er, now, and there is no son. Ke'er's mother has also passed away... Hehe, this move is too poisonous, a vicious trick!"

He suddenly couldn't help but say again: "Is it not easy for a rich man to find a woman to have a son?"

Lei Hu interrupted, "No, no, my Uncle Tian will not marry again... He vowed when Ke'er's mother died."

Xiao Lei chuckled twice and didn't say anything.

Suddenly, a strange thought came to his mind... Lei Hu's sister, such a shrewd person... Can you hide this matter from her for so many years?

This manor was bought by two families together. That Fang Bo seems to be from the Lei family... Could it be...-
