Ashtar's "mansion" has a century-old mansion at first glance. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 The reason why info says "mansion" is that there are two small "stone lions" in front of Aishida's house, which were a status symbol in ancient times. In ancient times, looking at the identity of people, you can see it from the courtyard, threshold, door, and ornaments. In ordinary people, there is no mao (nail) on the door, and there is no vermilion on the door. What do you mean? Even if there are no rivets installed on the door, the color of the door cannot be vermilion. Imagine the gate of the Forbidden City, how many rivets there are on the door, how many colors there are, and these lintels are a great status symbol. This thing can only be decorated by the eunuchs, even if you are very rich, you want to engage in Zhumen and hit the door, that is the crime of trespassing, it is to kill the head, in ancient times, heavy agriculture and suppressed business, rich people are nothing, no political status, so, the gatekeeper can only look at the official status. But the ornaments at the door are something that everyone can emulate. The official family stipulates that the stone lion can be placed at the door of the general, and the rich family also installs two "stone lions" in order to reflect their own differences, but this "stone lion" is different from the stone lion at the door of the real military general, the lion's mouth has no teeth, and the lion's feet have no claws. If someone really wants to check it, it can be completely explained that what I have installed in my house is not a "stone lion", but a kind of divine beast similar to a stone lion. The official will turn a blind eye to such a statement!

Jiang Kai took a closer look and saw that this stone lion had no teeth or claws, presumably this Ai family was not an official eunuch, but it should be a rich family. Jiang Ji buckled twice on the gate made of Nanmu, and he didn't hear any response inside, but he only heard a soft sound of "click" on the door, and the door of the double push slowly opened with a "squeak......

Jiang Kai was familiar with the road and stepped straight in, but Jiang Kai was full of curiosity and looked around, thinking that he wanted to see everything that was happening around him.

The gate of Deai's house is a courtyard that is not very large, about more than 20 square meters, at this time, the sky has been bright, and the open-air courtyard seems to have some vitality in the morning light: all kinds of green plants that occupy most of the courtyard are vibrant, so that Jiang Kai, who has been walking in the dark for a long time, has brought a trace of novelty, and the water tank located in the courtyard, perhaps under the moisture of the morning dew, the calm water surface in the tank, under the occasional water droplets, there is a ripple, if it is said that the courtyard is a still picture, That occasional ripple is the best scene in this stillness! Above the courtyard, from time to time, small birds fly by, and suddenly there are one or two bird calls, which makes people feel "pleasing to the eye".

However, this scene is a good visual and auditory picture, but it was really "penetrated" by a strange smell, this smell Jiang Kai smelled, it was really indescribable, stinky, mixed with a little smell of grass, like someone pulling a pile of feces in the grass on a hot day, and then a hot wind blew, which carried the smell of hot feces. Jiang Mi seemed to be very accustomed to this kind of taste, and went straight through the courtyard and walked to the living room opposite, Jiang Kai followed to cover his nose, Jiang Mi saw this, and quickly said softly: "Jiang Kai, didn't I say hello to you?" Don't touch on his sad past in front of Axstar. Jiang Kai didn't understand how his nose covering action touched Aishida's sad past, Jiang Kai saw it thoroughly, and said bluntly: "Do you dislike the taste?" This smell is a corpse smell! ”

"The smell of corpses?" Jiang Kai was obviously taken aback by this term, and actually exclaimed, Jiang Kai was just about to make a silent action at Jiang Kai, only to hear an old voice behind the curtain of the living room: "My family is buried in the courtyard." The plants are so prosperous, thanks to my family! “

Jiang Kai looked at the door curtain dumbfounded, only to see the curtain rolled open, and out came a languid and haggard, white-haired old man, who looked about seventy or eighty years old, but no matter how he looked at it, there was the shadow of Professor Ai Shijiao, Jiang Kai could judge from his body shape that the person who came out from behind the curtain should be Ai Shijia's brother Ai Shida.

"Let's sit down first, how many incense candles do you want this time?" The old man asked Jiang Ji in a depressed manner:

Jiang Qian didn't sit down, but replied directly: "Uncle Ai, I want four pairs of incense candles this time." The old man didn't ask much, walked straight back to the roller blind, and not long after he came out with a bag of things in his hand, and gave it to Jiang Fu, Jiang Jia took it, and didn't thank him, turned around and prepared to leave. When Jiang Kai saw it, he was curious, "Brother Jiang, it's rare to come here like this, why don't you introduce Professor Ai's brother to me?" ”

"What do you want to know about me?" The old man was disdainful of Jiang Kai's curiosity and said:

Jiang Kaiwan didn't expect that Professor Ai Shijiao's brother would be so unruly, at this time, Jiang Jia had already walked to the courtyard, heard the old man's words, quickly turned around, walked back to the living room, and said to the old man: "Uncle Ai, the people I brought here today can make deals with people and ghosts." ”

When the old man heard Jiang Ji say this, he squinted at Jiang Kai, sneered, and said, "I can't see that I still have such skills, I came to me early in the morning to ask for incense and candles, it must be related to the transaction of people and ghosts, right?" Jiang Qian nodded again and again and said, "Yes, yes, this time I will bring Jiang Kai to you to get to know you, so that Jiang Kai can come to you alone in the future." ”

The old man slowly stood up and said, "Got it! My name is Ashtar, and if you want incense candles in the future, you will come to me! Open 24 hours. I still have some things that I won't be far away. With that, Ashtar slowly walked into the door curtain.

"Since it's said that it's open, why don't you take money?" Just when everyone thought that this transaction was over, Jiang Kai said this out of thin air, making Jiang Ji and Ashda stay on the spot. Jiang Qian was the first to react, took Jiang Kai's arm and said, "The incense candle is coming, don't talk nonsense, come with me!" But Aishida slowly turned around and asked Jiang Ji slowly and sternly, "What?" Doesn't this Jiang Kai know the rules here? “

Jiang Jian hurriedly said hello: "This thing came suddenly, many rules haven't been mentioned to Jiang Kai, after the matter is completed, I will take a good time to tell Jiang Kai......

"How long will it take? Let's just come now, let me talk to this Jiang Kai about the rules here. Kai Jiang ...... Want to know the rules here? Aishida asked Jiang Kaidao directly:

"I can't wait for Jiang Ji to have any time, it's of course great to be able to listen to the rules here!" Jiang Kai said frankly:
