Chapter 90: The Old Mansion of the Kui Family (1)

Seeing me ask her, Hua Yu nodded subconsciously, and then shook her head again.

"It's just been there." She said, looking at the door.

The red paint of the iron door has peeled off, and there is still a pair of spring couplets with oxidized and white colors pasted on the door frame, which read-

"A thousand times the wind blows the green willows, and a drizzle moistens the red lotus."

I don't know why, I always felt that this couplet was indescribably weird, so I looked up and wanted to look at the horizontal batch, but I only saw black glue marks on the lintel, and a drooping piece of paper with the word "hu" written on it.

The word "suddenly" is even more strange. Generally speaking, the content of the Spring Festival couplets is mainly auspicious words or happy visions, but I really can't think of any auspicious words that can be matched with the word "hu" for a while.

I was thinking about it, but Hua Hu reached out and pushed the iron door, only to hear a "squeak", and the iron door opened in response.

Hua Hu walked straight into the courtyard without even saying hello, I saw that this door was not locked and latched at all, and someone must have lived in it. Hua Hu was probably a person with no concept of politeness, I was afraid that she would get into trouble, and I didn't have time to think about it, so I hurriedly followed in, shouting "Is there anyone" as I entered the courtyard.

But as soon as I shouted this, I regretted it, because the whole yard was overgrown with weeds, and there was a large pile of rotten firewood and debris on the east side.

There is also a large locust tree in the middle of the courtyard, and many small locust trees with a height of half a human have grown around the locust tree, which should have been uninhabited for a long time.

If no one lives in it, why do you keep the door open?

At this time, Lin Ying, Xiao Yu and Shi Chong also followed, and they were stunned when they walked into the courtyard.

"What's going on?" Lin Ying asked.

I pointed to Hua Hu, who was walking in front: "She brought me here." ”

Hua Hu was wandering around the old locust tree at this time, but I was staring at the blue brick houses in the courtyard.

It seems that there are five blue brick houses in total, and it is estimated that the history is quite long. The eaves were also covered with weeds, the walls were crawling with creepers, and all the windows were covered with bricks.

Although Yuntang Town is an ancient town, it is relatively close to Weiyang City, so there are not many old houses preserved.

"Strange." I said to myself.

Lin Ying also walked over, and she frowned as she looked at the blocked window.

"Do you see that?" I asked her.

"Yes, looking at the appearance of this window, it should have been blocked in recent years, but looking at the bricks blocking the window, it looks like a big green brick burned a long time ago - if the window was blocked recently, then where did these green bricks come from?" She asked.

"That's right." I agree.

"Why don't we go in and have a look?" Shi Chong stood up and asked.

Lin Ying looked at the big iron lock hanging on the door, turned to Yu Yiqing and said, "Xiao Yu, you call the Yuntang Police Station first and ask whose old house this is?" Without the consent of the owner, it is not good for us to rush in. ”

Xiaoyu nodded and stepped aside, and I heard her start calling to ask.

Hua Hu was still wandering under the big locust tree, and I walked over to her and asked, "Is there anything wrong with this tree?" ”

She looked up at the top of the tree and said to me, "This tree looks like a key." ”

"Keys?" I'm a little baffled.

"Yes, of course it's not the key to your world, but the 'Yin Wood Key' used in the Shura Realm."

"What's that?" I asked in surprise.

"You don't understand this, the world shouldn't know so much about the Shura world." Hua Hu gestured and said, "The asuras are much taller than humans, so the things they use are also big, and the size of this tree is equivalent to the size of a key in the Shura realm. There are also houses and houses in the Shura realm, so there are also locks and keys, but unlike the human world, which uses metal as a key, the keys to the Shura realm are made of wood. Of course, the wood is not ordinary wood, but yin wood......"

Before Hua Yu finished speaking, I watched Xiaoyu hang up the phone, and said to Lin Ying as he walked: "I called and asked, the police said that the owner of this yard is surnamed Kui, but the death of the family and the relocation of the outlet, the original owner has no direct descendants in Yuntang Town for a long time, so the yard is not taken care of, and no one comes back to inherit, so it has been deserted for many years - if we want to go into the house to see, it should be fine." ”

Lin Ying looked at us: "Teacher Shen, do you two want to go in together?" ”

"There is no Shang Weimin in it, only dirty things." Hua Hu answered the question.

I looked at Hua Hu and gave her a look, wanting to ask her why she didn't go in. Who knew she didn't understand what I meant at all, and when no one noticed, she grimaced at me and stuck out her tongue.

Judging by her expression, there was at least no danger in it.

I walked towards Lin Ying: "She doesn't seem to want to go in, I'll go in with you." ”

"Haha," Yu Yiqing said, "don't be like last time, seeing a disgusting scene rushing out and pouring down the Five Organs Temple." ”

"Can you accumulate some virtue on your lips?" I lashed out at her angrily.

"Okay. Shi Chong, find a way to open the big iron lock, and when we're done, let's buy someone a new lock and replace it. Lin Ying said.

At this time, I heard Hua Hu calling me behind my back, and I turned around, only to see her stretch out her two index fingers and make a square gesture towards me.

"What?" I was a little dizzy for a while.

"Small platoon." She said - probably because she didn't pronounce the pad well, she always called it "Xiao Pai".

I couldn't cry or laugh, and then I reacted - she still wants to chase dramas outside!

I walked back, took out the pad from my backpack and handed it to her, and took the opportunity to ask her, "Why don't you go in?" ”

"I don't like this kind of house with a black hole." Hua Fu pouted and said, "And it feels like it's a mess inside, and there's something weird." ”

"What's this weird thing? Monsters? Or is it a weirdo? ”

"I can't say itβ€”this princess came to the world to enjoy herself, but she doesn't want to get dirty. Besides, there are no imps to fight inside. ”

"Okay, then you can watch the drama well." I told her again, "Don't run around." ”

Lin Ying and the others were already standing at the door and preparing to enter the house, and I hurriedly walked over.

I saw a big and clumsy iron lock hanging in front of the main house. The iron lock is hung on the door and nose, and the door buckle is pinned, which looks like a typical old way of locking the door.

Shi Chong agreed, he walked over, took out a small tool box from the bag he was carrying, opened the box and took out a small key. He tried to insert the key into the keyhole of the large iron lock, but after a long time of tinkering, he was unsuccessful.

At this time, Xiao Yu walked over to take a look, she pushed Shi Chong away, took out a small bottle of oil from the toolbox and squeezed two drops into the keyhole, and then rubbed the key back and forth a few times, and after grinding the rust off, she opened the door lock with a "click".

"Sister Yu is really amazing." Shi Chong sighed with emotion, he whimpered his nose and pronounced "Sister Yu" as "Royal Sister", and he didn't know if it was intentional.

Xiaoyu pushed the door open, followed by Shi Chong, Lin Ying and I followed. The room was darkened by brick-barred windows, and the smell of stale came to the face, followed by a dead silence.

For some reason, this house gives people goosebumps.

The four of us all took out our phones and pressed the flashlight function inside.
