On this day, Su Anlin got up early to practice Qigong as usual.
It rained all night last night and it hasn't stopped yet. It's still raining lightly in the sky.
Looking at the rain, Su Anlin sighed, it has been raining for several days, why hasn't it stopped yet?
Fortunately, the rain was significantly lighter.
In the past few days, through the friend list, he could see that it was also raining in Huangji Town.
[Su Yuyu’s current status: practicing martial arts in the rain. 】
[Hongwu’s current status: leaving the city to do tasks.]
"Master has been out of the city every day these days."
Su Anlin was very surprised. Through the developments in Hongwu, the evil spirits in Huangji Town cannot be underestimated and are becoming more and more dangerous.
The two brothers Ma Dong and Mali also got up, practicing martial arts with Yang Ming, and greeted Su Anlin when they saw him.
"Hey, senior sister, haven't you gotten up yet?" Su Anlin glanced at the door of Cheng Shasha's room, which was still closed.
He knew that Cheng Shasha usually got up early, so today was a little unusual.
"Senior sister didn't come back last night." Yang Ming, who went back to bed early, said, "It seems that Miss Fang Ronger slept in the boudoir last night."
"Uh, the two of them are crowded together." Su Anlin was surprised.
"Yes, it seems they can chat quite well." Ma Li said with a smile.
"The main thing is that senior sister is a nice person."
After practicing for a while, a few people went to have breakfast.
"By the way, did you hear laughter last night?" Su Anlin suddenly remembered the events of the past few nights and asked.
In the past few nights, he heard laughter every day. The sound disappeared quickly the first two nights, but last night, it lasted for a long time.
Moreover, the distance was obviously close, and the laughter was actually a bit creepy.
"Laughter?" The two brothers, Ma Dong and Mali, shook their heads in unison.
Yang Ming also shook his head: "I heard it, but I didn't seem to hear it. Maybe I went to bed early and thought it was a dream."
"Above Heaven"
Just as he was talking, Su Anlin stopped at the entrance of a courtyard.
This courtyard is right next to where they live, but the gate is closed.
"Who lives here?" He remembered that the laughter came from here.
"No one lives there," Yang Ming said, "I came back early last night and there were no lights there."
Su Anlin was even stranger.
No one lives there, but the sound comes from here.
He walked over directly and tried to push the door open.
"You are still here. The kitchen is open. After eating, let's go buy some things. The rain will stop in two days for use on the road."
Cheng Shasha came over at this time.
"Sister."
"Junior Brother Su, why are you pushing this door open?"
"Well, I've been sleeping late these past few nights, and I heard someone laughing from here."
Su Anlin didn't intend to hide anything and told the truth.
"Laughter..." Cheng Shasha was surprised: "No one lives there. I wanted to stay here when I first came here, but when I came here with my maid Cui'er, I found it was too dirty and smelled so I didn't want to stay here."
Just as he was talking, the door was pushed open by Su Anlin.
Su Anlin was stunned.
A woman's body hung in front of him.
The woman's toes were only three centimeters away from Su Anlin's eyes.
The distance of three centimeters is very short, but it has a huge impact on everyone.
"Dead...dead."
Yang Ming was the timid one and sat down on the ground.
Ma Ma and Ma Dong both retreated, looking stunned.
They all knew the woman who was hanged in front of them.
It is Cui'er, the maid of the Fang family, who is a cheerful and lively girl. She always follows Fang Ronger and serves her.
His little face is chubby, and it can be seen that he usually eats well.
But at this moment, a worn out hemp rope strangled her neck tightly. Her facial features were ferocious and her eyes were bulging.
A bright red fragrant tongue spit out, motionless.
As Su Anlin opened the door, the hanging body swayed and swayed in the wind.
Although Su Anlin had seen dead people and killed many people, his scalp was numb at this time.
"I...I'm going to call someone." Cheng Shasha ran out.
After a while, all the Fang family members came.
He also called the yamen servant.
The two government servants obviously accepted the money and their attitude was very respectful.
"Mr. Fang, you may not know this when you are new here, but the previous resident of your house moved out because the house was haunted."
The leading government official explained, "In this courtyard, I collected five corpses."
When Fang Rong heard this, he felt dizzy: "I was deceived by Yachang."
"If you dare to sell our haunted house, Dad, I'll go find the Ya man to settle the account." Fang Shili was angry, turned around and was about to lead the guards out.
"That's all, I guess the Ya people left long ago after taking advantage of our deal."
Fang Rong stopped his son and said to the Yamen servant: "We are new here and can't find the big house in a short time. What should we do?"
"I do know two people. They are Taoist priests from Yunshan Temple nearby. They should be able to deal with them, right?" Su Anlin said.
The government officer looked strange: "Yunshan Temple, there are only five Taoist priests there, and they have all left."
"gone?"
"Well, you don't know something. Someone went there to visit the day before yesterday and found that Yunshan Temple was deserted."
"What should we do now?" Fang Rong was anxious.
"Don't worry, we know a Taoist who can help you ask."
The two government officials clasped their fists and left.
"Seal the door, and no one can enter in the future."
Fang Rong immediately ordered: "Burn Cui'er's body and give it a good burial."
The servants worked quickly.
Su Anlin looked at Cui'er's body and thought of the laughter last night.
"Why didn't they hear it?"
He couldn't figure it out.
Even if others go to bed early, it's been several days and there are sounds every night, so you can't hear anything, right?
In addition, Yunshan Temple was in good condition, but all the Taoists there actually ran away.
"Why did you leave?" Su Anlin was surprised.
That night while having noodles, neither of them showed any intention of moving, and even invited him over.
"There must be a monster when something suddenly happens." Su Anlin muttered: "Will you run into any trouble, or anticipate danger coming, so you run away in advance?"
There is something really weird here.
At noon, several people sat together to eat, and Cheng Shasha whispered:
"The people of the Fang family found out later that there must be a ghost in that courtyard. The last family name was Zhao. The old man married several concubines. When he was fifty years old, he married a concubine who was as beautiful as a flower. Unexpectedly,
Later, it was difficult to give birth and the child was aborted."
"Then the woman became depressed and fell seriously ill. When she was less than 20 years old, her face and body began to rot. Finally, she was rejected and locked up in that room to fend for herself."
"I heard that those days were very miserable. The master ignored her and even the servants bullied her. In the end, he hanged himself."
"Since then, people started dying in the family."
"Several concubines all died within two months. And they were all hanged."
Several people were shocked to hear it.
"Senior sister, this is too scary. I almost want to leave." Yang Ming couldn't help but said.
"Why don't we stay at an inn outside?" Ma Li suggested worriedly.
Su Anlin said: "A lot of businessmen coming and going recently took shelter from the rain, and the inns were full."
"Yes, but it doesn't matter. The government officials have already invited Taoist priests to come and suppressed the ghost this afternoon."
Cheng Shasha sighed: "Speaking of which, it's better for us in Huangji Town. We have never heard of these evil spirits."
"There are just demons and lunatics." Yang Ming muttered.
Suddenly there was a commotion outside, and the servants were seen walking towards the door.
While walking, several servants chatted: "The Taoist is here."
"I'm finally here. If I don't come, I'll want to leave."
