"Are you really going to help him?"

After going back, the four of them sat around the table in the room again, and Bai Zhenqian glanced at Yu Xia.

Just now, that Wu Hook described what he encountered to Yu Xia, and expressed the hope that Yu Xia could help, and this time the remuneration given by the main family could be given to Yu Xia without a penny, the amount was actually not large, only ten taels of silver.

"Not to mention the problem of silver, it's just a nightmare for the main family, and a magic charm can solve it, so you don't need to do it yourself, right?" Bai Zhenqian asked again.

She didn't say it explicitly, in fact, what she was thinking in her heart was that Yu Xia was a little nosy and making a big fuss.

Yu Xia thought about it for a while, and explained to Bai Zhenqian seriously: "After the main family expanded the house, the people of the main family frequently had nightmares, I suspect that the feng shui of the house has been damaged, and a bad one may hurt people's lives, so it is better to go and see." ”

Bai Zhenqian nodded, "What you said is not bad, if it is really bad feng shui, then the consequences will be very serious, then we will accompany you tomorrow." ”

Yu Xia was not polite, and nodded directly.

Although this Wu Hook's face looks like a loyal person, but the heart is separated from the belly, and it is difficult to say whether the other party has bad intentions towards him, who knows if there is fraud in it, just to deceive her out and then plot against her.

She clearly knows that she is carrying the inheritance of the Dragon Sutra, and she is a fat meat that many people want to move but don't dare to move.

But even if she is targeted, she is not afraid.

To be on the safe side, Yu Xia still drew a bunch of talismans overnight, carved a bunch of spirit beads, and carried them with him.

Early the next morning, several people arrived at the agreed city gate on time and made peace with Wu Gou.

Wu Gou arrived early and rubbed his hands in surprise when he saw them coming.

"It would be nice for the White Girl to come along."

As soon as the words came out, Wu Gou seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing and quickly covered his mouth, and then smiled awkwardly at them.

"I'm sorry, Miss Yu, I don't mean to say that I can't trust your ability, I just think it's safer for the white girl to go."

The more you explain, the more confusing it becomes.

Wu Hook's face turned red, and there were some beads of sweat on his forehead.

Yu Xia smiled and shook her head, "It's okay, I and the white girl were originally friends. ”

Wu Gou breathed a sigh of relief.

The family that Wu Gou said was in Shikou Village, outside the city, and it was a small local rich family, because he wanted to renovate and expand the old house because he made some money, so he specially invited the well-known Wu Gou to help him look at feng shui.

Wu Gou prepared the carriage early, drove the car outside, and pulled the four of Yu Xia to Shikou Village.

Yu Xia didn't expect Shikou Village to be so far away, and when they got off the bus, it was already past Shen Shi, and several people were so hungry that they were close to their backs.

Wu Gou was a little embarrassed, "The road in their village is not easy to walk, so we can only walk over, and when we get there, I will let them prepare the meal first." ”

Yu Xia glanced inside, and the road was indeed not very smooth, so he got out of the carriage and walked to the village.

There is something interesting about this house in Shikou Village.

Unlike the wooden and brick houses in the Jiangnan area, the houses here are made of earth, and the soil is common loess and cedar soil, which is taken from the hillside, and the soil can be reused after demolition and can also be used as fertilizer for farming.

In addition, Yu Xia also found that she did not understand what the villagers were saying.

"This village was migrated from other places during the turmoil in the past, and has lived in Yulu County for many generations, and now many customs have converged, but some have been preserved."

The language and this characteristic little earthen house are part of the reservation.

That family is in the depths of the village, and the distance between the houses in Shikou Village is relatively far away, so it is no wonder that they can be expanded at will.

Following the servants of the master's family into the earthen house, Yu Xia realized the mystery.

The foundation of the house is very high and paved with large pebbles, which protects the house from flooding. The walls of the house are the thickest at the bottom, and the net is thinning and slightly tilted inward, which can play a good role in earthquake resistance.

"There are bamboo chips in this wall, so you don't have to worry about the house collapsing." Wu Hook explained.

Yu Xia nodded, and the eaves jumped out of the top of the wall about a zhang, presumably to ensure that the rainwater could be thrown out of the wall, so as to prevent the rain from breaking down the earthen wall. The roof truss is ventilated and comfortable, and the wooden components are rarely eroded by insects and ants, and the ingenuity in the process is self-evident.

"The main hall of this house is very legitimate, and it seems that the main family is indeed a family that pays attention to water separation." Bai Zhenqian commented.

Yu Xia nodded, and at this time, a man in a short coat and a woman in a headscarf walked out, both of them were in their twenties, followed by a little girl of seven or eight years old.

Wu Gou said a few words to them, and then turned his head to explain to Yu Xia and the others.

"This is the master of this room, Master Ku Zongshan, this is Mrs. Ku, and this child is their only daughter, Shimei."

The two sides smiled and said hello, Wu Gou said something to them again, Master Ku and Mrs. Ku immediately nodded to them, and then called a servant to say something, stepped aside again, stretched out his right hand and looked at them with a smile.

"They've asked you to come in and take a seat, and we've got the kitchen ready to eat."

So the group went into the house and took their seats.

Inside the room is a square table, with a stool on the side, and a table against the wall, which is simple in appearance and without any carved decoration.

At this time, Wu Gou acted as an intermediary and asked Yu Xia to ask Master Ku and his wife many questions.

"When did the nightmares start?"

"About a month ago, we made some money selling piglets, so we planned to renovate the house, it turned out that our family and a few slaves had a total of eight people, and the living was a little crowded, so I wanted to expand it by the way. On the night of the construction of the house, I began to have nightmares, I thought it was just an accident, but who knew that the next few nights would be like this, and it was not alone, it was both us husband and wife who had the same dream. ”

"Is the one who cries in the dream sure it's a baby?"

"Sure, it's definitely a baby's cry, and babies are not the same as adults."

"Have you seen what that baby looks like?"

Mr. Ku and Mrs. Ku shook their heads.

At this time, the servant brought the meal, before Wu Gou said that the people in their Shikou Village did not speak when eating, Yu Xia did not ask again, and the plum cabbage button meat, stuffed tofu in Shikou Village and other dishes that happened to be served were very delicious, and several people didn't care about talking, so they just finished the meal quietly.

"I'd like to look around your house."

Yu Xia said to the Ku couple.

The Kus nodded immediately.

Bai Zhenqian and the others also planned to look around, so they split up.

Yu Xia walked out of the house and looked around the yard when she suddenly heard a particularly subtle sound of footsteps.

Yu Xia looked back, but it was Shi Mei, who quietly followed her at some point.
