It took me three hours to walk from the canteen to the house where my master and I lived. It originally took less than ten minutes to walk from where I got off the bus. The house where my master and I used to live was at the edge of the town.
This was originally a warehouse owned by the mayor. I still remember it was because the mayor’s house was haunted at that time. Later, my master helped the mayor to get rid of the ghosts. There were still a lot of ghosts in that era, especially in rural areas or small towns like this.
This town is haunted every now and then.
The mayor knew that my master was a man of real ability, so he invited my master to stay and settle down. He also gave this facade to the master. The master later took me to settle in Huilong Town. The door of the facade was not closed, or rather
This door is unlocked all year round. It is originally a ghost shop, specializing in the business of dead people. It is impossible for anyone to come and steal things. I opened the door and looked around. There was dust and spider webs everywhere. There was also a
The empty coffin and some other paper money and other items were missing. Maybe the neighbors came to pick them up during the Qingming Festival.
At this time, there was only a coffin in the middle of the facade. The surrounding area was empty, with only dust and spider webs. I took a look, nodded and backed out, then walked out of Huilong Town along West Street. This facade was just
The place where my master and I usually do business is still twenty minutes away from Huilong Town. We walked towards the West Street of Huilong Town for about ten minutes, and this muddy road appeared on the left again.
A road, then I walked along the road on the left for about ten minutes and finally a house appeared in front of me.
The house was not very big, and it only had one floor. I pushed hard and pushed the door open. I remember that I didn’t lock the door when I left. There was a lot of dust inside. There was only a table and a table in the house.
A bed. My master and I used to live a very simple life. We ate in small towns.
I walked to the table in the middle of the room, took off my backpack, took out my phone and checked the time. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon. I touched the table and found that my fingertips were covered with dust.
Shaking my head, I rummaged around and dug out a rag and a small bucket from the house. Then I ran to a creek not far from the door and filled some water. Then I came back and started cleaning the whole house.
Already.
I said tidying up, but I just wiped the dust off the table and bed, and then swept the floor with a broom. By the time I finished, it was already five o'clock, so I stretched out, not to mention, doing some exercise like this.
My whole body was so sore and so tired.
After I finished cleaning up, I went to a moldy cabinet next to the bed and took out a book. This book had no name. When I opened it, I saw some Feng Shui tips written by the master himself. I have never understood the art of Feng Shui, but
Feng shui definitely exists. The most famous one is the corpse raising ground, but of course there are many more.
When I read a book and saw six o'clock, I suddenly felt my stomach growling a little. I touched my stomach and looked around. Then I remembered that there was no food in this old house. I picked up my backpack and went out.
Went back to Longzhen.
It was half past six when I arrived in Huilong Town. The only decent restaurant in this town was the noodle shop next to the canteen where I bought cigarettes. This noodle shop was opened by an aunt named Zhang, and it tasted pretty good.
It was getting dark at that time, and I saw that Aunt Zhang was about to close the door, so I hurried over and said to Aunt Zhang, "Auntie, let me have something to eat!"
Aunt Zhang seemed to be in her forties, but she looked more than forty-five. She looked older, but she was a very nice person. When she heard what I said, she said, "If you want, come in and sit down, and I'll get you some noodles."
"After Aunt Zhang finished speaking, she walked into the kitchen.
Aunt Zhang's noodle shop was only twenty square meters and looked a bit shabby, but it was still clean. After a while, Aunt Zhang handed me a bowl of noodles and said, "Hurry up and eat it while it's hot."
"Okay." I was hungry for a long time. I took a bite and it tasted pretty good. Then I started eating vigorously. Aunt Zhang also turned around and went back to the kitchen to do some busy work. After a while, I saw Aunt Zhang carrying the food again.
When a bowl of noodles was brought out, she took it and gave it to the girl at the canteen next to her.
"Auntie, why doesn't this little girl make food by herself?" I asked while eating when I saw Aunt Zhang come back. Aunt Zhang smiled and asked: "What? Sichun? How about Auntie go tell A-Lian,
Let the two of you fall in love with each other."
"No, aunt, I have a girlfriend, so I just want to ask." I smiled and said, "That girl's name is A-Lian? Doesn't Grandpa Liu have a son? He might be in his forties.
"
Aunt Zhang sighed when she heard this and said, "You came back late. Ah Lian's parents died together last month. In the end, the people in the town pooled their money to bury them."
When I heard this, I raised my eyebrows and looked at Aunt Zhang and asked, "Why did you die?"
Aunt Zhang looked towards the canteen and said in a low voice: "I don't know, anyway, the death is quite strange. It is said that the two of them met the evil spirit."
My heart skipped a beat when I heard that Grandpa Liu died last year, and two people in the family died this year. There was definitely something wrong.
"What's the magic method?" I asked subconsciously. Aunt Zhang shook her head and said, "I'm just talking nonsense. No one knows what's going on. If you want to know, just ask Alian, but this
You'd better leave the matter alone, it's really strange, and your master isn't here either. If your master is here, you can still ask him!"
"It's okay, I'll just ask A-Lian!" I ate the noodles in two bites, handed Aunt Zhang five yuan, and walked to the canteen nearby. This was indeed a strange thing. That's how people are.
, I am very curious, and anyway, there are still two days until what the master said.
When I walked to the entrance of the canteen, I saw the girl named A-Lian, her head lowered, holding the bowl of noodles and eating voraciously. She didn't even notice me. The sound of my footsteps as I walked in brought her back to reality.
She raised her head and smiled awkwardly when she saw me, and said, "Shuaiguo, what else do you want to buy?"
I looked at her and suddenly felt something was wrong. She gave me a very strange feeling. I frowned and asked, "It's okay. I used to have a good relationship with Grandpa Liu, so I came to chat with you. Why did Grandpa Liu die then?"
Where is it?"
Alian laughed and said, "Hey, I'm not too old just because I'm old. I have to do farm work even after I'm a lot older. I'm so embarrassed that I'll beg Russell to death."
There was a hint of sadness in my eyes when I looked at Alian, but she was not as indifferent as she seemed.
