Chapter 10

Chapter 10

After finishing the hot pot meal, Meng Fan took me to his newly bought villa.

And his parents took it very seriously after learning that I was Lingxi's apprentice. They stood at the entrance of the villa area to greet us early.

Meng Fan's mother kept praising me, from my academic performance to my appearance, she almost accepted me as her godson.

Meng Fan's father didn't speak much, but he was enthusiastic. He served tea, poured water, washed fruits, and set a full table.

I didn't come here just to be a guest. After being polite, I directly mentioned the strange things in the villa.

According to Lingxi, the villa was newly bought, and strange things happening are simply because there is a problem with the Feng Shui layout, or the villa has been tampered with.

The villa area where Meng Fan's home is located is newly built. Before buying it, Meng Fan's father specially invited a Feng Shui master to come and take a look.

So there is definitely no problem with the Feng Shui layout.

Then there is only the second reason left, that the villa has been tampered with.

I talked to Meng Fan when we were at the hot pot restaurant, and he said that apart from his parents, only the decoration workers and carpenters should have stayed in the villa.

In this case, the answer is self-evident.

It's just that I don't understand why the other party wants to harm the Meng family if they have no grievances or grudges.

After my deliberate reminder, Meng Fan's mother recalled it for a long time, then turned pale and said angrily: "The carpenter, it must be that carpenter."

"Mom, don't worry, tell me slowly, what is going on?" Meng Fan reassured.

Meng's mother's lips trembled with anger, and she pointed to the cabinets in the villa and said: "The villa was bought in July last year, and I hired a specialized carpenter to make the furniture."

"The price was agreed upon at that time, and I also gave him the construction drawings. Everything was done according to my plan."

"But halfway through, I found that the cabinet in the living room had cut corners. Not only did the quality not meet my requirements, but even the height, you see..." Meng's mother walked to the TV cabinet in the living room and said loudly: "

I asked for a height of two meters, but the maximum is 1.8 meters, which affects the appearance too much."

"So I had a quarrel with the carpenter. He didn't build according to my plans, so the price would have to be lowered."

"I remember that he threatened me at that time, saying that I was depriving him of his hard-earned money and that he would suffer retribution."

"About three days after this incident, I settled my wages with him and told him to get out."

"I didn't want anyone else to make the furniture at the back, so I asked a distant relative of my friend to make it."

Meng's mother's eyes were red and she said: "It's obvious that he didn't obey the rules first, but he still had the nerve to tamper with my house. This kind of carpenter will be punished by God, and he will not die well if he is struck by lightning."

Father Meng comforted him: "It's over, it's useless for you to be angry. Fortunately, with Suning's help, we asked him to deal with the things left by the carpenter, and our villa will be stable."

"Yes, yes." Meng's mother nodded repeatedly and said expectantly: "Suning, what do you think we should do now? We have no idea where the carpenter moved his hands and feet, and how he moved them."

"It's okay, auntie, the master told me before I came here." I smiled and stood up, "That thing only targets Meng Fan, and it only appeared in Meng Fan's room and living room. That means there are two locations, one

It's Meng Fan's room, and secondly, it's the living room."

After saying that, I looked around the entire living room and said, "Let's look for the four of us together. Don't miss every corner to see if there are any wood carvings hidden in the dark."

Meng Fan asked: "What kind of wood carving? What does it look like?"

I explained as Lingxi said: "The little wooden man and the little wooden horse should not be big."

Father Meng immediately opened all the windows in the living room to make the view brighter and said, "I'm going to move a ladder. I suspect it's hidden on top of the cabinet."

Father Meng went to move the ladder, while Meng Fan, Mother Meng, and I searched carefully in the living room.

Half an hour later, as Father Meng shouted, he stood on the ladder and said with a fearful expression: "I found it, they are eight wooden horses."

"Take it and take a look." I said nervously.

Father Meng came down from the ladder and placed the eight thumb-sized wooden horses on the coffee table. His expression was uneasy and his eyes were cautious.

"That's it." I said excitedly, "Look, all eight ponies are stained with blood."

"What's the explanation?" Meng Fan asked.

I sat on the sofa, reached out and fiddled with one of the wooden horses and said: "The carpentry profession has many doors and deep taboos. One of the rules is that a carpenter's ax cannot be stained with blood, because blood is a channel to the spirit."

"These eight ponies were made and carved by carpenters using blood-stained axes. They appear to be dead objects, but they are actually psychic."

"That's why they can appear at night and appear as hallucinations, disturbing people's souls and disturbing their souls."

What I said was succinct, but in fact, I just listened to what Lingxi said and just repeated it over and over again.

After hearing this, Meng's mother was very frightened and said: "Throw it away, quickly throw it in the trash can."

I stopped him and said, "It's useless to throw it away. It must be burned at the gate."

Father Meng walked around the living room and said thoughtfully: "This is just a Trojan horse in the living room. There must be another one in Xiaofan's room."

"Go look for it." I found a plastic bag and packed the eight wooden horses, and followed Meng's father into Meng Fan's room.

Compared with the complicated furniture in the living room, the furnishings in Meng Fan's room are much simpler.

After searching for almost ten minutes, I found eight ponies in the innermost drawer of the wardrobe.

If someone who is not knowledgeable can see anything wrong with this thing, even if it is discovered by the owner, it will only be used as a fun thing for the carpenter in his spare time. Who would think that this thing is harmful to people?

I placed sixteen wooden horses at the door of the villa, poured alcohol on them and burned them cleanly.

Meng's mother said worriedly: "Suning, don't leave in a hurry. I'll look for it later. Maybe there are other rooms."

"Yes, let's stay for dinner." Father Meng suggested, "I'll book a table at the hotel and thank you very much."

I know what Meng's father and mother mean. I am just afraid that the carpenter's left hands and feet have not been completely resolved. If Meng Fan has any problems again, I am here to contact Lingxi as soon as possible.

Normally, I wouldn't mind staying overnight, even if it was for my friend Meng Fan, I would be willing to give them peace of mind.

But tonight is the critical moment when the evil spirit in me appears. I must be suppressed by Lingxi, otherwise my life is not guaranteed, how can I delay the big event?

Meng Fan saw the hesitation on my face and knew that I was haunted by evil spirits, so he quickly interrupted: "Mom and Dad, even if you don't believe in Suning, you still have to believe in Master Lingxi, right? Who is she? The number one spiritual master in Zhongzhou,

Can there be any mistakes in her guidance?"

Meng's father and mother looked at each other and seemed to think that Meng Fan's words made sense, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Afterwards, Meng Fan personally escorted me out to the entrance of the villa area. After helping me take a taxi, this guy took out a stack of hundred-yuan bills from his pocket and stuffed it into me and said, "Don't be too little, my parents said so."

, This is their intention and my gratitude.”

I was a little disgusted and said: "I regard you as a brother, and you mention this to me?"

"How dare I do cleaning work three times a week just for your money?" I sneered, threw the money out, and asked the driver to start.

Meng Fan chased after him and said seriously: "My dad said that brothers are brothers, and your master is your master."

"Huh?" I frowned in thought.

Meng Fan said frankly: "Master Lingxi's selling price is at least several million. I have benefited from you. Even though my parents are businessmen, my family bought a villa. I really want them to spend millions."

My family simply cannot afford to ask Master Lingxi to help."

"On the surface, this ten thousand yuan is my family's gratitude to you, but in fact it is more of a tribute to Master Lingxi."

"Ning Zi, you must take this money."

Meng Fan couldn't help but put the money into my pocket again, and said with a playful smile: "You think about me, how can I hurt your face as a brother?"

"It's really yours." I clenched my fist and hit Meng Fan. The anger I felt just now was gone.

"Okay, let's go back and call you." Meng Fan waved and said, "If you need any help from me, just ask."

After bidding farewell to Meng Fan, I went directly back to Lingxi Villa.

I checked the time and it was only about three o'clock in the afternoon.

I lay on the sofa and played with my phone for a while until 4:30, when I suddenly remembered what Lingxi had told me in the morning, asking me to make dinner.

Counting the time, it was almost time for her to come back.

I rushed into the kitchen and washed the pots and dishes from the morning.

Braised hairtail, stir-fried broccoli, cold shredded kelp, tomato and egg soup.

Well, three dishes and one soup are enough for two people.

I just made dinner here, and at 5:40, Lingxi's Mercedes-Benz drove back.

At the same time, a red BMW car followed behind.

I stood in the living room and took a sneak peek, and out of the red BMW came a stunningly beautiful girl who looked nothing like Lingxi.

This girl is wearing a beige cashmere jacket, a black skirt, and her ponytail is swaying. She is unparalleled in cuteness.

After she got out of the car, she took a long breath, clenched her fists, and made a cheering gesture, which made me look confused.

I just don’t know why, but this girl with a ponytail always gives me a familiar feeling.

It's like I've seen her before.

But thinking about it carefully, I really don't know her.

"Little apprentice, we have a guest at home. Let's make a cup of tea." Lingxi walked into the villa with the girl on her ponytail and winked at me with a natural expression.

"Ang, okay." I walked into the kitchen in response, took out tea leaves from the refrigerator, brewed two cups, and placed them in front of Lingxi and the ponytail girl.

"Thank you." The ponytail girl looked at me blankly, her hands hanging on her legs suddenly clenched.

I glanced at her curiously, and her eyes started to dodge.

"Oh, the food is ready." Lingxi said cutely, holding a tea cup: "Three dishes and one soup, um, is it enough for three people?"

I said awkwardly: "I didn't know there were guests coming over. How about I add two more dishes?"

The ponytail girl hurriedly waved her hands and said: "No, no, I can't eat much."

Lingxi chuckled and said, "Why are you so polite? My little apprentice's craftsmanship is very good."

This was the first time I saw Lingxi smiling so brightly, less of the pretentious coldness and more of a girlish charm, which made me feel swaying and in a trance.

The ponytail girl bit her red lips, looked up at me and said, "Can you make me some egg custard?"

"Uh, okay." I nodded quickly.

The ponytail girl said thank you again.
