"Declaration" has always attached importance to the authenticity of news reports, and it is rare to see such mysterious news news. On the other hand, this also shows the influence of No. 69 Fushuang Road, and even the editor-in-chief of the newspaper recognized the authenticity of the incident, even if it was placed in an inconspicuous position, it was also an indirect recognition of the murderous name of No. 69 Fushuang Road. After arriving at the school, the students who studied their homework seriously on weekdays also temporarily put down their studies and began to talk about the new and old news about No. 69, which gave Wang Mengxiong a preliminary understanding of this murderous house.

It is said that this house was built by a missionary couple who came to China to preach, and at that time there was a family of three priests and their youngest daughter, plus the ten children adopted by the couple during their mission in China. However, one of the adopted boys was so ferocious that he killed the priest and many of his siblings before jumping off a building to commit suicide, leaving only the priest's wife and daughter alive. Later, the priest's wife returned to Britain with her daughter, and the place was rented out.

In the second year, the tenant caused an accidental fire due to careless use of fire, burning himself and his family to death in the building, and several lives were added. Later, because no one dared to rent this place, the house was vacant and became a paradise for beggars. However, the good times did not last long, these beggars were forced to beg because of the abduction and sale of the children of good families and crippled, and finally provoked the people who should not be messed with, and were wiped out overnight, and it is said that the hanged beggars lined up along the corridor, and the people in charge of the funeral were scared half to death.

It was not until the early years of the Republic of China that the eldest daughter of the priest returned here with her newlywed husband, which made the empty house popular again. At that time, no Chinese people dared to apply for a servant, so the British couple had to hire people from China and Nanyang and other places to live.

Who knew that the good times would not last long, their child drowned because of playing sailing, and no one found it in time at that time, so that the child drowned in the pond at the age of 6. Three months later, the mother who lost her child committed suicide by jumping off a building. A year later, her husband, who missed his relatives and became ill, committed suicide by swallowing a gun in frustration, and the servants were scattered in fright, and the murderous house became an uninhabited mansion again. Day or night, no one dares to come near here. Even if the old man always said that there were occasional lights in it, there must be someone living there. However, no one believed his words, but as evidence that there were ghosts in it, the murderous reputation of this house was even more prosperous, and the legend of No. 69 Fushuang Road was achieved.

Wang Mengxiong recently read the Xibi anthology and knew that many things could not be explained by common sense. What's more, it's not like he hasn't experienced something like this, and he knows that there are some special existences. In short, he quickly put the news behind him and returned to his normal state of learning.

It's just that this matter was gently put down here and brought up again in another place. In the living room of the Chu Mansion, a sweet-looking, blonde girl was talking to Chu Yigong. Master Chu's nephew, Chu Ming, was accompanying him, and it seemed that he was very familiar with the girl, interjecting from time to time, his eyes were full of love.

"So, Miss Ruth is planning to come back and inherit the family business left by her parents? Aren't you afraid that it is a murderous house, and no one can live in it at all? ”

Chu Yigong was able to ask this, obviously knowing the legend of No. 69 Fushuang Road. Especially when the news just reported that two more people died there, and the cumulative number of deaths has exceeded 26 people.

Ruth was the missionary's youngest daughter, and she came back this time because her mother died, leaving her alone. Suddenly remembered that her parents still had an old house in Shanghai, Huaxia, where she slowly spent her beautiful childhood, if it weren't for the accident, she would still live happily here with her parents, brothers and sisters. Her sister inherited it and is said to have a young boy. It's a pity that the whole family had an accident, so she didn't even have any relatives to run to.

"Grandpa Chu also knew my father back then, including my sister's family who had an accident and also helped deal with the funeral. So this time I came to ask for something, and I asked grandpa to help me in the love of getting acquainted with my parents! ”

Chu Yigong was a little strange, and he couldn't figure out what kind of help this little girl wanted him to provide. "Ruth, for the sake of Priest Nowell's sake, if you need money, why don't you ask?"

The girl named Ruth waved her hand again and again: "NO, NO, NO, GRANDPA CHU, I think you misunderstood." I'm not short of money, what I lack is a certificate that I can successfully inherit my sister's house. That certificate was a power of attorney that my sister left for me before she died. She told me in her letter to me that she had hidden her things behind a family photo. ”

"Miss Ruth, although I helped your sister's family with the funeral, I didn't touch anything in the house. Some things may have been stolen by the servants, but others must still be sealed in the house. The photo you mentioned is probably also in it, after all, the servants will also pick valuable things to take, and they won't touch that. Just go in and look for it, and you'll find it in no time! ”

"It's very strange, I used to go there during the day, and I couldn't find the family photo frame except for the thick dust, and the smell of rot in the house, the faded furniture, and some outdated clothes. Well, this is the family photo that my sister sent to my mother in the letter. ”

Chu Ming took the photo from Ruth and handed it to Chu Yigong. Chu Yigong looked carefully, and the photo showed that he was familiar with the Browns and their son Jonas. At that time, when this photo was taken, it may have been the happiest time for this family of three, but I didn't expect that because the child drowned and died, this family was completely ruined.

"Since you haven't found it, could it be that it was taken away by the maid?"

"No, I once hired someone for him to look for at night. As a result, the man managed to escape from it and told me that he had found the frame, but he couldn't bring it out. After saying that, he grabbed his own throat and almost didn't die, and now he is still living in the hospital and can't speak. To tell you the truth, the two unjust ghosts mentioned in the newspaper were recently hired by me for money. Unexpectedly, the thing didn't arrive, and it killed those two people in vain. ”

"In that case, what is Miss Ruth's purpose in looking for me? After all, I don't know how to hunt ghosts! ”

After Chu Yigong finished speaking, he suddenly remembered the child named Wang Fan, and said in his heart, this girl named Ruth, wouldn't she want to find Wang Fan through me?

Sure enough, Ruth smiled and said, "Grandpa Chu, I heard that you know a master named Wang Fan, who is the best at catching ghosts and subduing demons, can you help me find him and go to No. 68 for me to find things out?" ”

Chu Yigong suddenly looked up at his nephew Chu Ming, who was looked down by him, looking weak. Come on, you don't need to ask to know that Wang Fan's information must have been leaked by this kid.

"I can help you ask, whether he agrees or not, I can't guarantee it!"
