Chapter 172: Xiang Zhai

Han Sen pleaded desperately, said a lot of good things, and apologized even more, even Wang Banxian felt that this time this face was really bigger than the sky, Hongchen found an opportunity to interject: "Okay, since Master Han must insist, then let my nephew take you to Kong Lao's place again, choose two spirit trees to replant, naturally there will be no hindrance, but the spirit wood is hard to find, last time it was a coincidence, if Kong Lao refuses to give it this time, I can't force it, I can only find another way." ”

Wang Banxian nodded: "Then I'll take him there." ”

Han Sen was immediately grateful.

"Also, if you want to repair the canal, you have to ask a professional to see it. In case something is alarmed again, it is always troublesome. ”

Hongchen smiled again.

Han Sen nodded again and again, where is there any need for them to say, as soon as something happened, Han Sen urgently stopped the group of people who repaired the canal.

Of course, the Han family also wants to repair the canal, but it is definitely more important to obviously pay more attention to their ancestral tomb, even if it costs more money and is more difficult to repair, they dare not hurt the feng shui of the ancestral tomb.

Wang Banxian gave Hongchen a look, and calmly led Han Sen away.

It wasn't until the evening that this guy appeared with a smile, looking at the red light on his face, obviously satisfied.

"According to what you said, I didn't plant Kong Lao very well, and let him take away the few trees that were to be removed from other empty places for spirit trees."

Wang Banxian's face was radiant, "I got a full 40,000 taels, and I gave 10,000 to Kong Lao, hehehe, this is yours!" ”

20,000 taels of silver tickets in hand!

Luo Niang: "......"

Hongchen raised his eyebrows: "This Han Sen doesn't look very clean. ”

With his money alone, he has to be young to earn enough of this!

But. It's easy to get money as an official, even if you get a county order, if you get a fat shortage, it's not impossible to get 100,000 taels a year, a little more honest, it's a clean official, and getting 350,000 is also a small amount, and it's not surprising that Han Sen can get it.

"Don't think I'm black, the county lord has made a lot of money."

Wang Banxian puffed out his face. "Give him a good spirit wood. It's a loss, if it weren't for my old face, I could double it if I sold it to others, and I would have dealt with it for him. That night his son's illness was cured. Be in good health. Go to study honestly, don't you see, Han Sen almost bowed his head when he saw me. ”

Hongchen smiled. I knew in my heart that Wang Banxian had indeed put in a lot of effort, and he also carried out a thoughtful and meticulous psychological treatment for Han Sen's precious son, and making money was also hard money.

Luo Niang prepared a table of meals, and left Wang Banxian to finish eating, before letting him go back to work, this person has been busy in the capital recently, and he is also a busy person, it is difficult to spare too long to chat with Hongchen to pass the time.

Before leaving, Wang Banxian did not forget to admonish: "Kong Lao said, a while ago, I fell in love with a very special tree, and it was a little interesting to look at, but he couldn't see it accurately, near Dayun Temple, in Yongchang Fang, you can inquire and know." ”

Hongchen responded: "Okay, if you have nothing to do, go around, go quickly, become a master, and be a little more attentive to your apprentices." ”

Wang Banxian touched his head, he also had a little bit of a number in his heart, and he also planned to let his four disciples go to study seriously, after all, they were young, they were all children, he had been abducted and deceived all his life, and he was still interested in getting old, but he didn't plan to let the little apprentices only be a liar, if there was hope, these few had qualifications, and they wanted them to learn some real kung fu seriously, and they didn't dare to compare with the county lord, and they could become real spiritual masters, which was also blue.

The rain and snow that lasted for several days finally stopped, but the sky was still overcast and the sun was out of sight.

The girls' school is on vacation, and the Luo Niang family is preparing for the New Year.

Recently, the business in the store has been booming, and they have made a lot of money, and Xiao Yan and they have taken a large amount of dividends, all of which are cash, and they don't know what to do for a while.

If you want to say that it doesn't hurt to save it, in the warehouse, I am very happy to look at the white silver.

But most of them are from small families, and the first thing they want to do is to buy a house and land.

Hongchen also smiled: "The house in the capital is still worth buying." ”

At least in ten years, the housing prices in the capital have risen but not fallen, and the land, especially the fertile fields, is even more priceless.

Since the young lady is supportive, Luo Niang and Xiao Yan are energetic, and they don't do anything else for a few days, just staring at the Yaxing side to choose all kinds of houses.

In fact, Hongchen gave them Zhuangzi and land early in the morning, and the combined property of the two people is probably much more than the farmer who has been operating for thirty or fifty years, but when it comes to this, he is still full of interest.

Hongchen thinks it's a good thing, if there is no hope for the future, why should he be so concerned about external things?

"Miss, look at this house."

Luo Niang suddenly raised her eyebrows and handed over a piece of paper.

The information about the house sent by the tooth shop is very detailed, and even the drawings are available, which ensures that people can understand all the basic information without going to see the house.

Hongchen glanced at it and smiled: "Yongchangfang, it's very close to Dayun Temple." ”

It is a large five-entry mansion, which is very spacious and luxurious.

Luo Niang They just want to buy a house below 1,000 taels of silver, and they want to choose a good location, in the environment of every inch of land in the capital, they really don't plan to be big, it's good to be delicate and small, but they never thought that there is a big mansion with five entrances for only 1,200 taels, according to the normal market, such a house is ten times more than someone wants.

"That's right, let's go see the tree first, and then I'll accompany you to see the house."

Approaching the New Year, the faces of the pedestrians on the street are a little more happy, and the people change into new clothes and buy all kinds of New Year's goods in large bags.

Hongchen took Luo Niang and Xiao Yan, both dressed up very brightly, with exquisite makeup, Xiao Yan also helped her young lady comb her hair with a double ring, which made her a few years younger, as fresh and tender as a little girl in the fourteenth or fifteenth century.

The clothes are goose yellow, twelve points pretty.

Luo Niang was stunned, and suddenly she had a feeling that her young lady was standing here, and the pedestrians on the street were added together, and she was not dazzling alone, not only because of her beauty, but also because of the charm that seemed to have been precipitated for a lifetime.

According to the place Wang Banxian said, he quickly found the tree mentioned by Kong Lao.

It was a big locust tree.

There is a towering momentum. Be in full leaf.

However, it turned out to be half alive and half dead.

Hongchen looked at it at a glance, and understood why Kong Lao couldn't see it accurately, this tree was a bit interesting, half of it was spiritual, full of life, and half of it was dead, it had long been lifeless, weathered inch by inch, and bare. You can see that the charred black and yellow.

She couldn't help but walk over and touch it. I was surprised that it was so weird, but the tree was alive.

Several feng shui classics in Hongchen's arms were discussed one by one with great interest, and there was everything to say. But I can't see it accurately. But it's all up to the point. Let her get the tree away first, and then talk about it, and if she doesn't see it well, she won't transplant it, and slowly raise it to see how it will happen in the future.

I was watching. Not far behind, there was a sudden sound of rustling footsteps.

"It's the front, are you really going? Brother, little sister, didn't I say, that place is really terrifying, no matter how good the house is, you can only live in it, why do you bother to join in this fun? ”

"Zi is silent, strange and confused, I read the books of sages, and I am upright, don't say that I don't believe that there are any ghosts and monsters in the world, even if there are real, I will retreat when I see them."

Three men and one woman, four people, slowly walked from behind.

The man at the head is shorter, with a round body, a little fat man, but his facial features are very pleasing, not annoying, wearing a red coat with a big fur lapel, and a small cotton hat on his head, which looks like a big red envelope on the whole.

The two men in the back, one in black and the other in white, are both Sven, the one in white has a gentle smile on his face, and the one in black has an arrogant face, and his clothes are not bad, at least not ordinary people can afford to wear them.

Especially the one in black clothes, with a golden belt around his waist, which can only be worn by the dragon son and phoenix grandson, the best of the clan's disciples.

The woman was also wearing a red riding suit, her eyebrows and eyes were very beautiful, and she looked impatient: "You guys are really boring, just buy a house, and you don't lack money, you want it, you don't want it, what the hell is weird, it's all nonsense, even believe this, you are also those fools!" ”

The woman spoke crisply and quickly, with a deep disgust.

The little fat man in front of him smiled bitterly: "Just like Brother Ming said, Zi Bu is silent, and you should always maintain a little awe, Sister Xiaoyou, even if you stay away, you can't make trouble all day long." ”

The woman in red sneered: "If there are really ghosts and gods in this world, our family should have died a long time ago from old to young, why are we still alive and kicking now, and I am also in good health?" My father said that only suspicion can give birth to dark ghosts, there are no ghosts in the world at all, it is all those gods who fool a bunch of fools to cheat money in order to keep their status! ”

What is the ......

Luo Niang was speechless when she heard it.

Hongchen raised her eyebrows even more - she didn't expect the Great Zhou people to have such an argument, she had heard some people complain in the Yujue space, saying that the people there didn't believe in ghosts and gods for decades, mainly because of the catastrophe in the world, the cultivation is difficult, there are fewer and fewer people who have the true way, and there are more and more liars, so the world does not respect ghosts and gods, and converts to a thing called science, they all envy Hongchen who is a cultivator who was born in a good era, who is respected by others, and the wealth and law are very simple, unlike them, who are tied to things.

Now it seems that not everyone in Da Zhou has a sense of awe for ghosts and gods.

As soon as the gang spoke, they also saw Hongchen and a few people, and they were all stunned.

The arrogant man in black suddenly straightened his eyes, his mouth opened slightly, he held his breath, and did not move for a long time.

The other two unconsciously reached out and straightened their clothes. Men, when they see a beautiful woman like a flower, they always inevitably hope to leave a good impression.

When the woman in red rolled her eyes, especially when she saw the appearance of the man in black, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she muttered in a low voice: "They are all bastards who only know how to look at faces!" ”

The little fat man smiled, glared at her, and stretched out his hand to pull it several times, and was stunned to pull the man in black back to his senses, and then continued to walk forward with a few people.

The man in black couldn't help but glance at Hongchen, and then again, Hongchen smiled, and gestured with his chin, the roots of his ears were red all of a sudden, and his feet were weak, and he reached out and pressed his companion's arm, so he didn't fall.

The little fat man couldn't cry or laugh: "What's the matter with you, I haven't seen your virtue before?" ”

"Do you need to say?" The man in white smiled, "It's not that you don't know his preferences, that girl looks like the person in his dreams from head to toe." ”

The four of them muttered as they walked. Soon he came to a vermilion door next to the big locust tree, and raised his hand to knock on the door.

Luo Niang looked at it twice, suddenly surprised, and said softly: "Miss, I didn't pay attention just now, this is not the five-entry mansion we fancied?" ”

Hongchen was stunned, looked at it and nodded, also a little surprised.

The little fat man turned his head and looked surprised when he heard that she was going to buy the house too. Hesitated for a long time. Finally, he turned around and walked over and saluted, "This young lady, you also fall in love with this house?" ”

Hongchen nodded with a smile.

The little fat man's face was vaguely embarrassed: "For the sake of Miss." It's better that you change your mind. ”

He lowered his voice. The gods are mysterious and secretive. "I've heard that this place is not clean, haunted, and everyone around me knows it. Several families have moved away, and you can probably tell that there are not a few families left in the neighborhood. ”

Hongchen and Luo Niang glanced at each other, and suddenly realized, no wonder the house is so cheap, and drove over, there were no cars and horses on the road, you must know that this is Yongchangfang, although not all of them live in the royal family, but they are also mostly rich and noble, and there should be a lot of carriages and pedestrians coming and going.

Luo Niang squinted her eyes, raised her eyebrows and said, "That's just right, our young lady is a spirit girl, but she is not afraid of any evil." ”

As soon as these words came out, others were fine, but the woman in red changed her face suddenly, her eyes showed a little contempt, and she snorted disdainfully: "It's a liar who pretends to be a ghost again, it's really hurtful." ”

Her voice was very low, and she let the little fat man poke a finger again, and stopped talking, Luo Niang and the others didn't hear it too clearly, but just looking at the girl's face, they also knew that she didn't believe in this anymore, but to the point of disdain.

Hongchen glanced at her, but sighed in her heart, this person has a very heavy evil spirit, she has never seen a young girl with such a strong evil spirit, it must be caused by foreign objects, it seems that this little girl's home is not ordinary.

A hexagram in her arms smiled and said: "She is also light, fortunately, there should be some magic weapon to protect herself, and she has been safe and sound for many years." ”

Just take a look at it at will, Hongchen will not meet a stranger on the road, you have to manage whether people believe that there are ghosts and gods in the world, the same rice raises a hundred kinds of people, there are always one or two people in the world who are different from ordinary people and have their own ideas.

The woman in red spoke sarcastically directly, and the other three people would be skeptical, but if there was really a spirit girl, even if she was younger, the little fat man would be a little more down-to-earth.

The man in black immediately showed a smile: "In that case, why don't you ask the young lady to go in with our brother and have a look?" But my little sister also wants to buy this house, and then I will have to see who the owner is willing to sell to. ”

That's nature.

Hongchen smiled.

The little fat man and the woman in red who followed behind all puffed out their eyes and glared at the man in black, and the little fat man snorted: "Why didn't I know that you believed in those gods and ghosts so much?" People just say that they are spirit girls, and they believe it? ”

The man in black looked at Hongchen's back with a stupid gaze: "If you look so beautiful, don't let me believe in a spirit girl, even if I believe that I am a woman, I am willing to believe it." ”

Little Fat Man: "...... Perverts! ”

There really is no need to be afraid of any ghosts, there are hungry ghosts, and no ghosts can set off the wind and waves. The corners of the little fat man's mouth twitched, and he leaned over to introduce himself with a familiar face.

"My surname is Gao, Gao Xiaogao, this beautiful girl is called Yun Fang, you can call her Ah Yun, the one in white is called Song Qi, and the one in black is called Chen Chen, but don't bother with him, his heart, liver and lungs are black, he is not a good person......"

Gao Xiaogao was verbose, walked over and knocked on the door, and it was an old servant who opened the door, who was a little deaf and mute, so that he was very familiar with him, and led them in and retreated.

"It's huge."

The group entered the house, Xiao Yan fell in love with this place at a glance, it was simply a scene, flowers and plants were sparse, and everywhere was beautiful, not to mention more than a thousand taels, it was really cost-effective to double.

It's a very elegant house.

Xiao Yan was going to buy it almost immediately, but apparently that Yun Fang was also extremely satisfied.

Since the two buyers came out and wanted it very much, they soon saw the master's house, and it was a young man who came forward, only twenty-three or four-year-old, with a snow-white face, wearing filial piety on his body, and hanging a lot of amulets, with a gloomy face, his head bowed, and his voice was very indifferent.

"Who wants? I only need 1,200 taels, whoever pays the first money will give it, and the title deed is here. ”

Take a closer look. His legs and feet were a little shaky, and his eyes wandered, constantly looking at all corners of the yard.

Before Hongchen could speak, the woman in red, Yun Fang, took out a stack of silver tickets casually and threw them over with 1,200 taels: "Here you go!" ”

After speaking, he picked Hongchen with his eyes, "Go to the transfer immediately, I'm sorry, my hands are fast, but my hands are slow." ”

Hongchen groaned slightly. Eyes wandering. looked straight at the branches of the locust tree scattered on the courtyard wall, raised his eyes into the distance, and frowned: "This house is not very good, and the day is better." Moonlight comes down at night. Fall into the patio. The formation of yin evil, the yin evil aura is strong, easy to provoke ghosts. This Miss Yun, if you buy it to live by yourself, I'm afraid it won't be appropriate, and you have evil qi in you......"

Before she finished speaking, Yun Fang sneered, hugged her shoulders and looked at her obliquely, as soon as she saw her like this, Hongchen stopped, shook his head, and turned to look at the young man: "Listen to my advice, you can't solve this matter by selling the house and moving away, I see that you have not been very well recently, especially at night, you must pay attention, if it reaches the point of vomiting blood, the situation is very serious, I am afraid that it is a very powerful spirit master, and it is also very difficult to resolve." ”

The corners of the young man's mouth were blue, his eyes were frightened, he closed his eyes, and glanced at Hongchen in horror.

Yun Fang smiled instead of smiling, looked at Hongchen with contempt, and said to the master: "Hey, you don't really believe this, I think she just wants to take the opportunity to lower the price again, maybe she still wants to fool you into giving her the house for nothing, don't believe in this kind of godly person." ”

This person was frightened, and the whole deed was stuffed into Yun Fang's arms, and he turned around and left with the silver ticket, staggering for a while and disappearing.

Hongchen was not angry, looked at Yun Fang's face carefully, and said softly: "If you need it, go to the street to inquire about 'good fortune', go to Master Wang, and naturally find me." ”

The performance of the person just now obviously seemed to make people say the key point, Hongchen said this again, and several people in the courtyard, except for Yun Fang, were a little surprised.

Especially Gao Xiaogao, he tugged at Yunfang's sleeve and told her not to talk nonsense, but he felt that this place was really wrong.

Hongchen didn't care, turned around and signaled, and the group left the house, she glanced at the locust tree again, walked forward, suddenly reached out and broke one of the thin branches, stuffed it into the sleeve, and whispered to Luo Niang: "I think it has a hundred years old, at that time this piece was still a wasteland, want to come to the ownerless, you go to inquire, if there is really no owner, just find someone from the yamen to help me circle it, and I will transplant it myself after a while." ”

Luo Niang responded softly.

The group got into the carriage and departed.

A few people behind him poked at the door, watching their carriage go farther and farther, that Chen Chen's couldn't help but chase two steps, he was cold and arrogant, and he looked like an idiot at this moment.

At this time, a cold wind blew.

The little fat man Gao Xiaogao shuddered, his back was cold, and he said, "Sister Yun, do you really want to live here?" Why bother, there's no need to move out to live alone when you compete with my Uncle Yun, why don't you go to my house first? Think about it, if this place is not weird, how can a good five-entry mansion be bought for about 1,000 taels? ”

"Hmph, how ignorant the world is!"

Yun Fang exhaled and was triumphant, "However, it is precisely because of the stupidity of the world that our family can make money happily and eat well, and we are not afraid of too many people competing for business, you are afraid to leave, I will live here tonight, hum, I want to go to my brother's grave when I was seven years old, and I can eat that imperial grain, for so many years, it is not all good, what is wrong?" If there were really ghosts and gods in the world, would my father live to be 70 years old and die? ”

She rolled her eyes, not taking Hongchen's words seriously at all, "That woman is talking nonsense, can you not understand?" Empty gloves white wolf, people want to pick up cheap. ”

As she spoke, Yun Fang's stomach suddenly hurt a little, as if a needle had pricked it, but she didn't pay much attention to it.

Others are not at ease, even if they feel a little uncomfortable, they still stay honestly.

Let Yun Fang live alone in such a desolate mansion, and there is only one deaf and dumb old man here, how can they rest assured?

Tired all day, as soon as the sky was dark, several people lay down to sleep, Gao Xiaogao slept the most soundly, he didn't choose a seat, fell asleep, and didn't know what time it was, he suddenly woke up, knowing that he was awake, but his body couldn't move, his eyes couldn't open, his hands couldn't be raised, he only heard a squirming footsteps outside, very soft, the sound was heard in the ears, but it sounded amazingly in such a quiet night.

His first reaction - who went to the hut? It's so cold, why aren't you in the house? But I reacted immediately, no, everyone lives in a courtyard very unsuspectingly, including Yunshu, he is in the easternmost side, but the footsteps are also coming in from the east, where is the east? It's a wall, there's no road!

In an instant, the temperature in the room plummeted.

His body seemed to be frozen, but he still couldn't move, his brain gradually became dizzy, and he tried not to sleep, but he couldn't wake up, as if he was dreaming. (To be continued.) )
