Hearing this, Wang Daling hurriedly put his face on the car glass, looked left and right, and finally muttered: "It seems that there is really such a thing, tell me, what is the point in this?" ”

Ghost Shuo responded: "Haven't you listened to the old saying that if you have a mountain on your head and a river on your feet, your descendants will be high-ranking officials?" You see that the terrain here is excellent, and the Tibetan wind gathers qi, but it is a good place that can not be found. . . The place of the mansion! but the living can live ... ”

Wang Daling was stunned for a moment, and before Ghost Shuo finished speaking, he immediately scolded: "I, you kid's mouth will be damaged!" What nonsense? This is someone's old house, how can it become a place of yin house in your mouth! Wang Daling hurriedly turned his head to Sister Li and said, "Sister Li, don't listen to his nonsense, he doesn't understand Feng Shui, he drives a train with his mouth full of nonsense, don't go to your heart!" "Sister Li is now Wang Daling's financier, so she can't be offended, if Ghost Shuo's cold words provoke her, won't the 20,000 yuan that is about to arrive be in vain?

Sister Li not only did not feel angry when she heard the words, but on the contrary, her face showed a trace of sadness, she sighed and said slowly: "The master is really a master, don't hide the two, this house was bought by the ancestors before, but since the purchase of it, the family road has become middle-of-the-road, and the originally prosperous people have become thinner, and in my generation, there is only me and a younger brother left, the younger brother went to the city to work a few years ago, but his leg was crushed by the car, and he has been lying in the house for a few years... ”

Sister Li's words surprised Wang Daling, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, and Ghost Shuo asked, "When did you buy this house?" ”

Sister Li thought for a while and replied: "I don't know much about this, you can ask my dad later, but... He's been frightened and delirious lately, and it's probably hard to answer the question. ”

The car drove slowly on the country road, and gradually there were people on both sides of the road, most of the houses here are black tiles and white walls, the cornices, wall heads, door feet and other places are mostly decorated with pockmarked patterns and geometric lines, and the walls are painted, which is a typical Bai architectural style, Gui Shuo asked: "Sister Li, is this a Bai nationality settlement?" ”

Sister Li nodded and responded, "Yes, most of the people in this village are of the Bai nationality, and so is our family." Hearing this, Ghost Shuo turned his head and glanced at the old mansion outside the car window, frowning for a while.

Wang Daling suddenly asked, "You kid even know the architectural style of the Bai people?" And the feng shui just now? Where did you learn it? ”

Ghost Shuo was busy pondering, and he didn't bother to talk to Wang Daling for a while, but muttered in his mouth: "Encyclopedia for Children and Teenagers." ”

"The Children's Encyclopedia? Who are you boy? Tell me honestly, what else are you going to do? Wang Daling chattered, but after talking for a long time, he didn't see the ghost Shuo's reaction, he turned his head to look, it turned out that he was in the state of leaning his head back and not saying a word, Wang Daling knew his temper, whenever this kind of time, unless the sky suddenly fell, it was difficult for him to respond, so he had to turn his head again, look out the window, and stop talking.

The car drove for about ten minutes, and finally arrived at the door of the old house, slowly stopped, and the road was bumpy for nearly four hours, Wang Daling had already wanted to get out of the car and move his legs, so he couldn't wait to open the door and get out of the car. While stretching his legs and feet, he looked around, and at this time the sky had begun to darken, and Wang Daling was puzzled: "Huh? Sister Li, is your family a single family? How is it that there is not even a neighbor in a radius of several hundred meters? ”

While talking, Sister Li and Gui Shuo also got out of the car, and Sister Li replied: "This radius of several hundred meters is my family's wasteland, which was bought with the old house, and there is no labor force at home, so it has been so deserted, and naturally there are no neighbors around." ”

Wang Daling was about to mumble something, when suddenly an old voice came from behind him, and the voice was extremely cold, as if it came from the ground: "You... Come on? The master has arrived? ”

This sudden voice frightened Wang Daling, he quickly turned around, I don't know when there was an old man standing in front of the gate of the old house, the old man was wearing an old-fashioned dark cloth coat, holding a black wooden cane, looking at the age should not be light, I saw that his face was thin, looking a little haggard, the hair on the temples was already white, but when he fixed his eyes again, Wang Daling was almost frightened and screamed, the old man only had a pair of white eyes left in his eye sockets, and now he was staring straight at Wang Daling, and his appearance was extremely weird!

Wang Daling was a little overwhelmed by the fright, but fortunately, Sister Li stepped forward and responded: "Dad, we are back, the master has arrived." ”

It turned out that the old man was Sister Li's father, Wang Daling's hanging heart finally fell a little, if she hadn't opened her mouth to answer, he really thought he had hit a ghost! When it was still dawn just now, I didn't think that when I got closer at the moment, I found that the house behind the old man was indescribably weird, revealing an inexplicable depression from the inside out.

The old house is completely different from the previous houses, although this house is also built of bricks, but with more wood, the courtyard wall has begun to peel off, but it can be vaguely seen that it should be a red wall before, and the top of the house is all dark black wood, which seems incompatible with this Bai village, if it is not for the fact that there is no one in the vicinity of a few hundred meters, then this house will make people feel very abrupt!

Wang Daling glanced at Ghost Shuo with slanted eyes, and it was not difficult to see from his eyes that he seemed to have the same doubts, but he didn't speak. Wang Daling was thinking about it, when Sister Li suddenly patted Wang Daling's arm and said, "Master, let's go into the house first." Wang Daling was frightened by this sudden beat, and was about to answer, only to see Ghost Shuo take a step forward and smile at the old man: "Uncle, you have a strong body, and you have a long life this year?" ”

The old man trembled and raised one hand, stretched out five fingers, and said, "Old, already in his sixties!" ”

Wang Daling suddenly smiled in his heart, this old man is really old, and he is not qualified in mathematics, but after he teased him like this, the fear just now has been eliminated a lot. Ghost Shuo continued to ask, "Then the uncle has lived here for many years, right?" ”

The old man pursed his lips and replied, "I can't remember clearly, I lived here when I was a child, this... How many years will it be, wait for me to calculate... After that, the old man was about to fold his hands to count, but Sister Li had already stepped forward to take the lead, grabbed his arm, and said, "Dad, let's go into the house first, go in and count slowly." As he spoke, he took the old man's arm and entered the house, and Wang Daling and the others hurriedly followed.

As soon as he entered the door, the old man pointed to the door and said, "The rope, flashlight, and shovel you just asked for have been delivered!" Ghost Shuo followed the old man's finger and looked over, and sure enough, there were those tools behind the door, but they didn't look like they were newly bought. Wang Daling leaned down and glanced at it, and said with a smile: "Sister Li, are you efficient enough?" ”

Sister Li shook her head and said with a wry smile: "No way, I don't expect this matter to be solved as soon as possible." As he spoke, he led the two of them a few steps inside. Ghost Shuo looked at the courtyard and was suddenly stunned, the courtyard was empty, there was nothing, only in the middle of the courtyard there was a stone platform ten square meters high, the stone platform was more like the ancient sacrificial use. From the outside, although the ancient mansion is a little old, according to his guess, the courtyard should be pavilions, several courtyards, designed very tightly, but he never imagined that it was a vacant land, only a few one-story low houses not far away.

Sister Li seemed to see the confusion on Ghost Shuo's face, so she explained: "There are not many people in the family, and they are idle like this on weekdays, and after a long time, the yard looks a little ruined, sorry!" ”

Ghost Shuo shook his head, and didn't seem to care, so he asked, "Sister Li, where did you say the stone tablet you dug up?" ”

As soon as the old man heard the word "stone stele", his face immediately turned pale, and he answered first: "That... The stele is in the backyard... Backyard! This house is evil.,There's movement in the yard every day.,Big.。。。 The master also begs you for help! ”

The old man's expression suddenly changed, which made Wang Daling's nerves, which had just stabilized, tense again, and he was a little frightened for a while, but on the other hand, Ghost Shuo was not shocked, and responded calmly: "Uncle, don't worry, we are here to help you figure out this matter today." ”

The old man nodded a little excitedly when he heard this, and said in a trembling voice: "That's good, that... That's it! After that, he slowly walked forward with the support of Sister Li. The two of them were taken into a hut, there was a wooden table in the house, on which some food was already arranged, the light in the room was a little dim, what age was it, there was no electric light in the house, but an oil lamp! Several people sat down in turn under the guidance of Sister Li, the food on the table was very simple, Sister Li said embarrassedly: "Two masters, I'm sorry, in the countryside, I don't have time to prepare too much!" ”

After a bumpy day, Wang Daling was really hungry, so he unceremoniously took a steamed bun on the table and responded: "You're welcome, just stutter!" As soon as the steamed bun was put into his mouth, he heard footsteps behind him, he quickly turned his head to look, only to see a man at the door with a cane, limping in, that look even thinner, looking at his haggard appearance is no less than the old man in front of him.

"Why did you come here by yourself, I was just going to go over and help me up!" Sister Li got up and asked.

The man waved his hand, did not answer, walked to the table and sat down, then took a steamed bun on the table, and never said a word. When the two were surprised, Sister Li hurriedly explained: "This is my younger brother, he doesn't like to talk very much, and the two masters are embarrassed." ”

Wang Daling, who was holding the steamed bun, was a little embarrassed, so he asked, "Sister Li, that... Anyone else? Do you want to wait any longer? ”

Sister Li hurriedly shook her hand and responded, "No, there are only three people in our family, two masters, let's eat." ”
