Today is the opening day of my gym.

The so-called Taoist hall, the full name is "Taoist Metaphysical Museum", which is actually responsible for feng shui, fortune telling, exorcism and other magic stick business.

Of course, I know that this is some unscientific behavior, but I am definitely not the kind of charlatan who deceives people and bankrupts, the purpose of my opening the Taoist Academy is just to maintain food and clothing, or in other words, to find something to do, relatives and friends in the province say that I am a vagrant.

My name is Qin Junhua, 27 years old this year, two years ago because of an accident after a leg fell and was disabled, I was idle at home, recently I asked a friend who has a way to help me get a Taoist certification, but also went through the business procedures, in the name of promoting traditional culture, finally opened the first private enterprise in my life - Taoist Museum.

Since I dare to open a gym, of course, I also have two brushes. After all, I chose the profession of "God Stick" from 360 lines, and I decided after considering my own situation and many investigations.

Not to mention that my ancestors are also Taoist priests, I myself have had contact with some things outside people, and I can be regarded as a psychic. This is not feudal superstition, but just knowledge that human beings do not understand.

"Gods" do exist in this world, but these things are more suitable than the term "gods" to be called primeval unknown creatures. They hide in corners that humans can't see, and they do things that humans can't detect with their incredible abilities.

I leaned back in my computer chair and let out a long breath, and the first day of the opening began with nothing to do.

As I was lying on the couch behind the screen fiddling with my phone, I felt a faint scar on my forehead stinging when something strange happened near me, and I knew that my real "business" had come to my door.

Sure enough, there was the sound of the door opening and sensing the doorbell at the door.

"Is anyone there?" A girl's voice rang out.

"Yes." I hurriedly walked to the storefront outside.

It was an ordinary girl who came in, looking like a college student, quiet and wearing glasses.

This girl's breath is very clean, and she is a good girl with a good heart. I can still feel it through that little unknown "ability" in me.

"Hello! Are you a shopkeeper? The girl was a little surprised to see me, maybe my gray hair was a little abrupt - my hair had been gray since some "accident" a year and a half ago, and now I just kept it long, ready to make it look a little more like a magic stick.

I nodded and invited her to sit on the couch for the guests.

"Boss, actually...... I'm asking for an amulet. The girl sat down and said, "Something strange has happened to me recently." ”

I poured her a cup of hot water, sat down on the couch next to her and asked, "What kind of strange thing?" ”

This girl's surname is Han, so let's call her Xiao Han.

Xiao Han spent the morning telling me about the strange things she had encountered.

She was my first client.

The strange thing that Xiao Han encountered was like this.

She is a college student who came to study in the city from other places, and her family conditions are not very good, so she decided to rent a house by herself because the unscrupulous school charges high dormitory fees privately. Last month, she stumbled upon a cheap house for rent in a place near the school called "Xinda Community", so she didn't think much about it, just to save money, she rented a two-bedroom house on the third floor.

The buildings in the Xinda community were built ten years ago, it is a low-end house for the common people, at most only seven floors, in order to achieve the purpose of not wasting a little space, the buildings are built in an old-fashioned and simple style, some of the stairs are still open-air, and the room she rented is a room against the open-air staircase.

The rent of two bedrooms and one living room is only 300 yuan per month. Although the furnishings in the house are a little shabby, Xiao Han still feels that he has taken a big advantage. The original landlord said that he had moved to a new house, and the old house was hanging at the agent, probably in a hurry to sell, and by the way, it was rented out cheaply.

In fact, she either went to class or worked during the day, and returned to this house just to sleep.

However, within a few days of moving in, strange things frequently happened in the community.

First of all, at two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, from time to time, there would be women downstairs singing that kind of creepy jokes, or they would find paper money everywhere in the building.

Because she goes out early and returns late every day, she has to go out for morning self-study at six or seven o'clock in the morning, and she has to work until eight o'clock in the evening to come back, and she also takes a part-time job on Saturdays and Sundays, so she has little communication with her neighbors in the community.

Then, just a few days ago, the middle school cram school where she worked was finally shut down for a day due to the boss's trouble, so she was able to return to her rented house for a day of respite.

At this time, she realized that the whole community was quiet during the day, and there were almost no people on the street, and she always thought that she came back every night so she couldn't see the people in the community, but she didn't expect it to be so quiet and cold during the day.

"As I was walking back to my rented house, a quilt fell from the upper floor...... It just fell right next to me. Xiao Han recalled with a little horror, "But that quilt ...... It looks like it's been out there for a long, long time...... It's all dust...... Dry ...... It was tattered, like no one had ever put it away......

When I looked up, I realized that there were many families in that community, and they all hung those kinds of clothes and quilts outside...... It was raining, but there wasn't a single house...... Collect clothes ......"

Xiao Han tried to clasp his fingers and stabilize his emotions before saying, "After that, I passed by the house on the first floor, and when I came back every night, one of their windows was ajar, but there was no light inside, and I didn't know what was going on inside." During the day, I saw the house, and in the window there was a table of meals covered in cobwebs...... It's like no one has cleaned it up for a long time.

But that's not even the scariest of all. That night, I noticed that the houses of those who didn't collect their clothes when it rained turned on the lights at night! I don't even know what's going on, whether those buildings are inhabited or not!

I always thought that there were still many residents in the Xinda community, because many houses were lit up at night, but it was very quiet day and night, and the scene I saw during the day was a bit too strange! I didn't dare to go to other neighbors' houses and ask, because I didn't know anyone, and the police probably wouldn't care about such a thing, right? After all, there is no crime, so ...... I just don't want to ask for an amulet to get ......."

"You've got a big heart, girl." I said, "Don't you feel like it's infiltrating to live there alone?" ”

"But my family is in a difficult situation, and I can't afford to rent another house. Guru! I'd like to ask if there are any cheap but useful amulets! She looked at me pleadingly.

"The amulets in our store all start at 300 yuan." I say.

"That's a little too expensive, and I probably can't afford ......," she said.

"But given that you're the first customer, I can give you a discount." I said, "I can take your order for free." It's a word of mouth. ”

"Really?!" She was pleasantly surprised, "But it's a little bit bad, after all, it's your open business, it's better for me to pay some money, boss, you can give me a discount!" ”

"It's not a matter of discounts, I think if you go back tonight, you may never be able to get out of that neighborhood again." I took a sip of tea and said, "You have evil spirits in you." ”

Of course, this is a bluff to her, the main reason is that the scar on my forehead has just sensed what she said, this girl is indeed entangled in some "vision", she has been able to live until now, completely avoiding the time of the vision, it can be said that she is very lucky.

But her luck was limited to that, and judging from her account, when she began to notice the vision, the vision had already haunted her, so it would be very bad for her to go back tonight.

I had to think of ways to stop her from dying within the limits of what she could accept.

"Don't scare me! Boss! My family is rural! My family believes in this! Xiao Han was a little panicked, "And there's no way I won't go back!" My papers are all in that house! ”

"That's it, I'll help you get rid of the evil, you can pay it back slowly in the future, if you think it's worth it, you can pay it, if it's not worth it, you won't pay it, the cost of removing the evil is a total of 3,000 yuan, okay?" I said, "If you have to go back today, let me go with you." Of course, if you don't worry about me, you can find another acquaintance to follow us. But you can't live in that neighborhood again tonight. ”

"The three thousand...... It's a bit much......" Xiao Han said.

"Didn't I say it, if you don't think it's worth it, you don't have to give me money. Moreover, I don't want you to pay the money immediately, it's okay to give it to me when you graduate and have money in the future. I said, "If you want to go back to get your papers, you'd better take advantage of the day, because even if I am at night, I am not sure that I will leave with my whole body." ”

Xiao Han is really a persuasive girl, she thought about it for a while and called one of her classmates who lived in the city - Xiao Li, who can be called her best friend, because their department had closed classes early to prepare for the exam, so these students were as idle as if they were on vacation.

Xiao Li soon brought her cousin, a very tall boy, over, and I don't know what Xiao Han said to her best friend when she was on the phone outside, and even brought a boy here, because she was afraid that I would do something wrong, right?

When Xiao Li brought his cousin to my store, the originally deserted store seemed lively.

Xiao Li is a very lively and fashionable girl, and when she saw me, she said to Xiao Han: "Wow, Xiao Han, you have a good eye!" The boss is so handsome! ”

I kind of like to hear that.

"Don't laugh, I'm scared to death, the boss said that there are ghosts in the community I rented, and I want to move out quickly." Xiao Han said.

"Then you can come to my house tonight." Xiao Li said, "Let's go to your house first and pack up our things." ”

"I'll go with you." I said, "Wait a minute, I'll bring some of my tools." ”

It's the set of magic stick props that are used, in order to prevent customers from believing it, I just purchased a complete set of exorcism supplies before.

I took some props from the back closet and put them in my purse, and then handed the purse to Xiao Han and they took it.

"Boss, do you want to go in a wheelchair?" Xiao Li asked when he saw that I had pushed out my wheelchair.

"I have inconvenient legs and feet, and I can't walk too far." I say. In fact, it is because Xiao Han said just now that Xinda Community is very remote, there is no taxi driver willing to go there, and the bus is not there, so I can only walk a long way by myself.

"Then you still have to follow, it's really hard." Xiao Li said, "Boss, is your hair dyed?" It's quite a feeling! ”

"It's born." I say.

"It's a bit powerful......" Xiao Li said.

So Xiao Li and they took a taxi and told the driver to stop three miles away from the Xinda community, which seemed to be very evil, and the locals were reluctant to approach.

Actually, I am not a local, and I stayed in the city directly after university, and my hometown is in another place.

Because I had a bad leg, I sat in the passenger seat to get out of the car, and I chatted with the driver about the Xinda community on the way.

From the driver's mouth, I learned that this Xinda community was said to have a lot of evil things ten years ago, but everyone couldn't say what the specific evil things were, and they were all false, saying that the place was unlucky, and over time, no one wanted to get close to that side.

After getting out of the car, Xiao Li's cousin helped me push the wheelchair, and we had to walk three miles to get to Xinda Community.

Along the way, I noticed that on both sides of the road there was a lot of wasteland that had been demolished but not developed, probably because the reputation of the Suntec community was too bad, which affected the construction of nearby real estate.
