Chapter 8: The Haunted House


The moment the other party turned his head, Chen Youniao saw a weird and deformed face, which was indescribable, it seemed to be an elderly man, his body was all black, and there was a vague feeling, as if it was not real.

In the sound of shouting and asking, this "person" seemed to be frightened, and he jumped suddenly, his movements were quick and swift, and in a blink of an eye, he ran to the other side of the house and disappeared.

At this moment, Chen Youniao was really startled, he had not yet completed his cultivation, and he had no martial power. He was empty-handed, and seeing this strangeness suddenly, how could he dare to chase after him casually?In case the other party didn't escape, but hid in the dark and rushed over, they would fall into ambush instead.

Ten years of Taoist career, although he has never actually fought, but he has heard about monsters and ghosts, knows some things, and taboos.

At this moment, Uncle Wang came out with his clothes on. He was a light sleeper at his age, so he could hear the movement, so he got up immediately to see what happened.

"Master, what happened?"

Chen Youniao calmed down and spoke.

Uncle Wang is not an ordinary servant, he has lived in the village below Laoshan Daochang for ten years, and he has been influenced by his ears and eyes, so his knowledge is naturally different.After listening to it, I was taken aback.He knew that the world was not peaceful, and he met the "River God" on the Jinghe River on his way home, so he had seen it.It's just that he never expected that in the county town, in the courtyard where he lived, something strange appeared:

"Master, you, do you think the other party is a human? Or something else?"

Chen Youniao shook his head: "I can't see clearly for a while, but it's weird anyway."

Uncle Wang said: "This is the city. There is a yamen sitting in the town, and there are soldiers and soldiers guarding it. How can there be a monster?"

Chen Youniao said in a deep voice: "The county is so big, it's not surprising that there are troubles. It's remote and desolate, and there are a lot of fish and dragons here."

Uncle Wang asked: "When I came back earlier, I saw that lunatic worshiping here and kept talking about ghosts and gods. Could it be that this is a haunted house, haunted by ghosts?"

Chen Youniao chuckled: "The so-called ghosts are just evil spirits, not to mention there is no hell."

Uncle Wang said, "Then just now?"

"It may be a person, or it may be an evil spirit, but it flees after hearing the sound, after all, it is afraid of people. If it is really fierce, it will have exploded earlier."

Chen Youniao had plausible words.

Uncle Wang thought about it, it was true, if the opponent was powerful, he would not have escaped, but he and the young master would have escaped instead.

Chen Youniao said: "Uncle Wang, I'm hungry."

Uncle Wang was startled: "Master, you have eaten a lot for dinner."

"Hehe, after practicing the kung fu, it's exhausted."

Uncle Wang didn't think too much, he took the money and went out with Chen Youniao.This time I can't go to the restaurant, I'll find a noodle stall on the side of the street.Eating here is cheap.

Eating noodles alone is not enough, Chen Youniao asked the store to cut up two catties of pork head meat.If you have meat to eat, you don't panic.

Uncle Wang looked at Chen Youniao, stunned, and quickly calculated in his heart: According to the young master's way of eating, he thought it would be enough for a year's worth of silver, but it might only be enough for half a year's expenses.

Eat and drink enough, go back to the house.

That night, neither Chen Youniao nor Uncle Wang slept soundly. Fortunately, nothing happened, and they didn't relax until dawn.

Uncle Wang went out to buy things, buying some daily necessities, as well as rice noodles and other ingredients.Chen Youniao said that in the future, he will have supper at night, and it is impossible to go out every night. It is convenient and cheap to prepare it at home.

Really have to save money.

Chen Youniao stayed in the house to study "Wen Xin Diao Long". Wen Qi is of great use, the more the better, it should be accumulated every day.

This learning process is not only meditation, but also writing and reading aloud, which is similar to the normal state of reading.

Only when you have intentions, can you have a mental understanding and a literary spirit.

In this way, reading, writing, and writing consume a lot of pen, ink and paper, which is another expensive consumption.

In this world, paper books almost belong to the ranks of luxuries, and generally poor people can't afford them at all. Therefore, in the Dayin Dynasty, most of the people were illiterate. Take the branch as a pen, write on the sand, and practice.

Uncle Wang came back with a lot of things, but he looked panic-stricken.

Chen Youniao asked: "What's the matter?"

Uncle Wang put down his things and wiped his sweat: "Master, it's bad, there is really something wrong with this house, it's a haunted house."

Chen Youniao was startled: "How do you know?"

Uncle Wang smiled bitterly and said, "I came back from shopping and met some people nearby. When I asked them, they all said the same thing."

Chen Youniao frowned: "You said someone died here?"

"That's not true, it's just that there are ghosts haunting and making a lot of trouble. The former clan's family couldn't live in this way, and then ran away. The house is remote and haunted, so it has been vacant."

Uncle Wang said.

Chen Youniao heard it: "That's it?"

"Not only that, because the house was vacant and no one was taking care of it, there was a poppy who fell in love with it. He wanted to touch it in and steal something, but something happened. I don't know what happened to him. He was scared and fled. After going out, he became Crazy and crazy. Here, it is the lunatic who came here to burn incense and worship last night. He used to be a well-known gangster in the neighborhood, and he was very courageous. Now he has run into evil and lost his mind, and that's it."

Chen Youniao listened and nodded. In this way, the weird person I ran into last night most likely belonged to evil spirits.

As for the clan's allotment of this house to their own family, it is probably meant to be perfunctory.

Uncle Wang said again: "I heard that this matter was reported to the officials before, and people came from the yamen, but they couldn't find out why it came, so let it go."

Similar evil things are often weird and unpredictable, and it is difficult to solve them, and they need to be sent by the Taoist court.And the matter of this house is limited to this place, and no one is killed, so naturally it will not alarm the higher-ups.

"Master, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's go and live in another place."

Uncle Wang said worriedly.

Chen Youniao asked: "Exchanging land and renting a house costs money, and it's not a long-term solution."

"But here?"

"It's okay. Although I haven't officially become a Taoist priest, I have learned some skills and can cope with it after ten years of entry."

Hearing this, Uncle Wang felt relieved.It would be best if the young master can solve it.Although it's a bit out of the way here, it's a big enough place to live in.Haidai County is prosperous, and housing prices are not cheap. A good location can be called an inch of land, and even a slightly inferior house costs a few taels a month.Given their current situation, living is affordable, but life is difficult.

"Uncle Wang, let's make breakfast, I'm hungry."

"Uh, good."

Uncle Wang hurried to work, thinking in his heart: Master can really eat now.

But it is a good thing to be able to eat, and it is powerful to eat a lot.In some fairy tales, there are people with great supernatural powers who can eat a whole cow or several sheep in one meal.

After breakfast, Uncle Wang started tidying up the yard with a hoe in his hand, to see if he could reclaim some land to grow vegetables, so that he would not need to buy it.Daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, vegetables, meat and pasta are all bought, and the sum is by no means a small sum.

"Oh, master, master is not good!"

Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something terrible, and cried out in horror.
