Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Old Butler Is Back
Before I could say anything, Guo Zhuo was already a little cowardly.
"Why don't you ask me what's in comparison?" I said unceremoniously.
"Follow, what do you have to say, you'll lose anything with me anyway. β
"I don't compare anything else with you, you say that I am not worthy of being an onmyoji, and you also say that you can catch spirits yourself, then give you a chance, whoever can catch the spirit of this house within a week, even if you win or lose, kneel and kowtow three times in front of everyone in the Han family, how about it?"
Guo Zhuo was obviously unwilling, hesitant, and I was really relieved to see him riding a tiger now.
Should!
Look at the master, I won't play you to death this time!
"Just listen to Mr. Kuang. β
At this time, Han Caiyin also stood up to speak for me, which surprised me, and I could see that her relationship with Guo Zhuo was definitely not ordinary.
Guo Zhuo is enthusiastic about Han Caiyin, but Han Caiyin loves to ignore it, so there must be something greasy in it.
Guo Zhuo was stunned and looked at Han Caiyin in disbelief, "Caiyin, you said that I should catch spirits with such a poor and sour guy? That's absolutely not good!"
"I'm so honorable, it's impossible to ...... with someone like him"
I sneered, this Guo Zhuo's reason for refusing is really blunt.
"You're mistaken, I mean we'll split up and catch the spirits within a week, and see which of us catches the evil spirits in the mansion first. β
Guo Zhuo swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously after hearing this, "What's the big deal, isn't it just catching spirits? I'm not even afraid of people, how can I be afraid of spirits, just catch them, then start counting from today!"
I laughed, he couldn't do anything about it when he was chasing ducks to the shelves, I could see it.
After that, he never scolded me again, nor did he trouble me, and I guess it won't be long before this thing comes over to talk to me about how to catch the spirit.
But he deserved to do this, and he didn't want to worry about him before, but this time he provoked a war between us.
If this wasn't at Han Chae-yin's house, maybe we'd already be fighting.
Guo Zhuo finished eating, dropped his chopsticks and left.
Han Caiyin sighed silently, asked the maid next to her to clean up the table, and then said slowly: "The person just now is my fiancΓ© Guo Zhuo, the Han family and the Guo family are world friends, and the two of us are even more set baby relatives, he is not very good-tempered, you must not take anything to heart." β
I shook my head, "Don't worry, I'm not going to deal with a ruffian yet." β
Seeing me say that Guo Zhuodi was a ruffian, Han Caiyin didn't react at all, as if I said to her heart.
"Miss Han, there is one thing I need to tell you. β
Han Caiyin was stunned for a moment and then nodded, "You say, is it about the fierce spirits in this house?"
"Yes, Sister-in-law Zhang took me to everyone's room to see, I didn't enter your room, don't worry, I didn't find anything special. β
"That's ......"
Han Caiyin's tone was a little unhappy, and her smile was a little reluctant.
I knew she was doubting my ability and efficiency, but at this time I didn't know where to find a breakthrough, so I had to start with people.
And I have a strong intuition, the purpose of this fierce spirit must be the Han family, as for the fact that she scared away or scared crazy, she didn't kill her, but how did it become a nightmare for no reason when she arrived here with Han Caiyin.
"Everyone else is crazy and you're just having one nightmare after another, which makes me strange and curious, can you tell me what you have in your dreams?"
Han Caiyin hugged herself and shuddered suddenly.
"I dreamed...... I dreamed that it was as if there was a group of people who were walking in front of me, suddenly turning around, and then they were going to kill me, holding me down by the neck, and they seemed to be asking for something!"
"If you think about it, what exactly do they want. β
I was so excited, I felt that Han Caiyin was about to say something, but she probably realized it herself and immediately stopped talking.
"Let's not mention this for now. Han Caiyin refused.
"If you want me to complete this task as soon as possible, you have to tell ......"
"Okay, I really don't remember this nightmare, I've forgotten a lot, I can't lie to you, you eat breakfast first, I'm done, there's something going on in the store, I'll leave first." β
After speaking, Han Caiyin left in a hurry.
After dinner, Sister-in-law Zhang came to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and when I went out, I heard the person at the door say that the old housekeeper was back, and I came to take a look out of curiosity.
Sister-in-law Zhang said before that she is the oldest person who serves here besides the old housekeeper, and I still have some doubts about Sister-in-law Zhang, suspecting that she is hiding something from me.
Since these two women are not sure, I can only start with the old housekeeper Shen Qiong.
The old butler was a man of general knowledge, and he would say whatever I asked him.
For example, the issue of the ancient house and the current house, sure enough, I guessed correctly, the place in Jing'an, that is, the construction site contracted by Wang Bianjiang, is actually the ancestral house of the Han family.
As for why the Han family moved, the previous generation said when they were not dead that it was related to the rise and fall of the Han family's next family.
"It's only been a few days, but I didn't expect that the ancestral grandfather's premonition is really powerful, no matter what goods the Han family invests, they will make a lot of money, but the good times don't last long, and the new house began to change two months ago. β
The old butler coughed twice, put the package on the bed, and continued: "One after another, some people are crazy, and they also say that there is a cry in the cloister, this is the murderous mansion can see the dead from the inside, and there are all kinds of rumors. β
He stepped forward and grabbed my hand excitedly.
"Truth be told, your father was here just a month ago, but then even I don't know where he went, and I believe that you are better than your father. β
I'm glad to hear such compliments.
"Old housekeeper, how can you come back for a trip, not only is your age getting older, but your vision is getting worse and worse!"
Guo Zhuo was accompanied by two subordinates, looking at me proudly.
"Just like him, do you still expect him to be able to catch the spirit in the house? It's impossible! If he really had that heart, he would have caught the spirit the first two times, and he would have no money to eat and drink here. β
"He's a soft rice man and a coward. β
I slammed the table, startling Guo Zhuo, he probably thought that the two behind him could be the ones who supported him, but I directly ignored the two servants.
I had an idea and followed his words.
"Say I'm timid, but you're bold?"
"Of course!"
Guo Zhuo hadn't noticed the pit I had dug for him.
"That's great, I just have something I want to ask you. β
