Before I knew it, it was already more than six o'clock in the morning, and the candle burned out and was completely extinguished at that moment. Meng Jian was tired, and he decided to put this matter aside for the time being, and then continue to look for clues tomorrow when he had time.

After leaving the basement and returning to the utility room, Meng Jian closed the cover of the basement and pushed the empty cabinet back to its original position, and then returned to the hall on the first floor.

Meng Jian turned off the light in the hall on the first floor, went up to the second floor lightly, and returned to the bedroom.

Zhou Yan was still asleep and did not wake up.

Meng Yan took off his clothes and got on the bed lightly, got into the quilt and lay down, Zhou Yan turned over in a daze, and continued to fall asleep next to Meng Conversion.

Meng Conversion, who had been tossing for several hours, was sleepy and tired, and soon fell asleep after lying down.

Nothing happened after that, and Meng Jian slept until dawn before waking up. When he woke up, Zhou Yan was looking at him with blazing eyes on the side, obviously she had been awake for a long time, and she saw that Meng Jian was sleeping soundly, so she didn't wake him up.

"There are no ghosts in this house, I did have a nightmare last night and hallucinated, if there are ghosts, the ghosts have already done something to us. Also, my father has lived here alone for many years, and if there was a ghost, he would have had an accident a long time ago. Zhou Yan suddenly opened her mouth and said to Meng Conversion.

"I'm just worried about you and the kids, it doesn't matter where I sleep. Meng Wei knew that Zhou Yan was worried that he would not be used to living here.

"Let's have breakfast, and after breakfast you can walk around town with me and see if we can find someone to help us get rid of the house." Zhou Yan put on her clothes and talked to Meng Conversion.

"Okay...... That's right. Did you go down to the first floor last night?" Meng Jian asked Zhou Yan casually.

"At night, go downstairs, no......" Zhou Yan shook her head.

"You haven't woken up since you woke up from a nightmare. Haven't you ever gone down to the first floor?" Meng Jian confirmed to Zhou Yan again.

"I slept very deeply and never woke up again...... Have you found anything?" Zhou Yan asked Meng Yan a little strangely.

"Nope. Maybe I'm dreaming? I dreamed that we were watching TV on the first floor. Meng Jian fooled a few words, he estimated that Zhou Yan he saw on the first floor last night, eight ~ nine times out of ten was a ghost. Meng Jian didn't want to mention the basement matter to Zhou Yan for the time being, so let's talk to her when the day is right.

"When you go out today, remember to buy a few energy-saving lamps, which have a higher wattage, and light up the hall everywhere. The lights in this house are all dim, and it feels bad at night, even if it is not haunted, it feels like it is haunted. Zhou Yan thought about it and talked to Meng Jian again.

"Okay. Meng Jian nodded.

……

Jinli Town's real estate sales, transfer of property rights or something. Because there are no two certificates in the city, and the Zhou family is a rural household registration, they have to go to the village committee to handle it, and the two ran a morning about the house sale, but the result is not optimistic.

First, Zhou Yan's father died, and if he wanted to sell the house, the village committee cadres said that it would be better for Zhou Yan's grandmother and uncle to come forward. Zhou Yan reasoned with them and said that she was the only legal heir, and she was in charge of this matter, and so on, the village cadres were very unimpressed, and Zhou Yan said too much, and they were also annoyed that it was the Zhou family's own business. I'll come back to them after the internal negotiation has been dealt with.

Second, the people of the village committee said that the house and land could only be sold to people from the same village, not to people from other villages or other places. I have to discuss it with the buyer first, and then go to the village committee together. Although the leader of the village committee did not say it explicitly, his tone already revealed the information that no one would buy this house at all.

"Your father used to think about selling the house. But if there is a problem with your house, even if it is only sold at half price, even if it is sold at two or one discount. Even for free, no one is willing to take over. "The person from the village committee was annoyed by Zhou Yan. I threw a few words to her.

When Zhou Yan and Meng Jian asked what was wrong with the house, the village committee was secretive and refused to say anything.

However, when the two of them left the village committee office, a middle-aged woman followed them all the way, and whispered beside them in a gloomy voice: "Your house is haunted, and the whole town knows it, don't expect someone to take over the house." ”

When Zhou Yan asked the middle-aged woman what was going on, the middle-aged woman asked Zhou Yan to go home and ask her grandmother, and then turned around and walked away quickly.

After coming out of the village committee, Zhou Yan's love became very low, and she was silent all the way.

Obviously, the current situation is very different from what she expected, and the house that she was worried about being invaded by her grandmother, uncles and aunts does not exist at all, but ...... This house is like a hot potato, and no one is willing to take it over at all, which really makes Zhou Yan very unwilling. However, she knew why her grandmother and aunt had no reaction at all after hearing her say that the house was hers.

This house, the people in the town are afraid to avoid it at all!

In the past two days back in the town, Zhou Yan and Meng Jian even noticed one thing, that is, the two courtyards on the left and right sides of this old house have been closed, and no one has entered or exited at all.

Zhou Yan remembered that when she was a child, the street at the door was quite lively, but now this street is very deserted, even if there are occasional passers-by, when they pass in front of her house, they are all walking from the opposite side, or the kind that leaves in a hurry.

The people of the village and the town not only dislike this house, but even implicate the whole street because of this house! In such a situation, who would be stupid to buy this house?

And if people in the same village want to build a new house, they generally won't buy other second-hand houses, and there is a lot of land in the village, so they can find someone to build a new house again, so why bother to buy a ghost house to find themselves unhappy and in trouble?

……

On the way back, Meng Wei passed by the small supermarket in the town, went in and bought a few energy-saving lamps, bought a twenty-three watt one, which was to be installed in the hall on the first floor, and bought a fifteen-watt one to be installed in the bedroom, and three eight-watt ones, which were ready to be installed in other rooms depending on the situation.

After going back, Meng Jian first changed the lights in the hall and bedroom, and then went down to the first floor.

Zhou Yan sat on the chair in the hall on the first floor in a daze, with a sad face, obviously still thinking about how to deal with this house. Originally, her plan was to come back to her grandmother and uncles to ask for a house, and even if she didn't get it, they would at least compensate her tens of thousands of yuan if she made a fuss in the village committee, right?

That was already the worst result she thought of, as long as she had those tens of thousands of yuan, she would have the money to go back to the city to rent a house and have a child. What she didn't expect was that the result was even worse than she imagined, the house was actually haunted and no one wanted to take it over!

If she had been living here, she would have a hairy nightmare in her own heart, and she would always have that kind of nightmare in the middle of the night, and if one day the nightmare became true, it would be doomed.

The only thing that comforted her was that Meng Jian was not worried at all, and always looked very calm. It's a good thing that he is by her side, otherwise she wouldn't know what to do.

"Do you know that there's a basement down here?" Meng Jian walked around the hall on the first floor, and after stomping a few feet, he asked Zhou Yan, who was sitting in the hall in a daze.

What a ghost did he meet on the first floor last night?

If it's not a ghost, it's Zhou Yan who came downstairs to sleepwalk, if she can remember what happened in the basement, maybe she is sleepwalking, if she doesn't remember at all, then she is probably a ghost.

"There's a basement?" Zhou Yan looked surprised.

"Are you sure you didn't get out of bed and came to the first floor after you woke up from a nightmare last night?" Meng Yan asked Zhou Yan again.

"No......"

"Well, I don't have to hide it from you, I went downstairs last night after you fell asleep and stumbled upon something. Meng Jian said and took Zhou Yan to the utility room next to the hall on the first floor, and after pushing open the large cabinet, he opened the cover of the basement.

Zhou Yan's expression was obviously extremely shocked, she started to live in the school after going to junior high school, but she has also lived in this house for more than ten years, even after living in the school, she will come back to live in the winter and summer vacations of junior high school and high school, and she never knew that this house actually has a basement!

Although Meng Yan persuaded Zhou Yan not to go down, he just gave her what he found, but Zhou Yan still insisted on going down to the basement with Meng Yan to have a look, especially after hearing Meng Yan say that she had found her mother's relics below.

"Wait, it's dark in the basement, and the lights are broken, so I'll go down and install a light before I take you down." Meng took an eight-watt energy-saving lamp and went down to the basement first, replacing the broken light bulb in the basement.

With the switch on the wall turned on, the light of the energy-saving lamps illuminated the entire basement, and it didn't look as eerie as it had been last night. After installing the light bulb, Meng Jian turned around and helped Zhou Yan to pick her up.

In the basement, Zhou Yan got the photo album and saw the photos of her mother she had never met, and couldn't help crying, and later Meng Jian gave her her mother's psychic diary and the bronze mirror, which were relics left to her by her mother.

"My mother died more than twenty years ago, but I hadn't heard about the haunted house until I went to college. The haunting of this old house must have started in the first few years of my college years...... Because after I went to college, my grandmother and father cut off my financial resources, and I never came back here. Zhou Yan looked at her mother's psychic diary and talked to Meng Jian for a while. (To be continued......)
