The weather in July is exceptionally hot, and no matter how far or south you are, walking outside is like entering an oven, and the air is bursting into a wave of heat, as if it is about to melt everything in the world.

The same is true of the Eastern Capital, the most central city in China. It's 1:26 noon, the streets seem a little quiet, there are few pedestrians, and occasionally a few people walk by and hide in the shadows of the surrounding buildings or trees with umbrellas and sunhats, just like the safe zone and the poison circle of the chicken finals, and they dare not step out of the safety zone.

However, at this moment, there was a young man, dragging a suitcase in his left hand, a backpack on his back, and a large cloth bag on his shoulder, and his upper body was soaked with sweat from the hot weather.

"Damn, damn, it's really unlucky, bastard landlord, didn't you just delay the rent for two months and didn't pay it, and you kicked me out directly, I said that I would make it up later, it's really not humane at all." The young man walked over and over again, scolding and muttering non-stop.

The young man's name is Liu Yang, he is a freelancer, to put it bluntly, he is an unemployed vagrant, he is a wandering all day long, doing some part-time work to earn two pocket money, and he used to covet a cheap village house in the city, and the rent of 200 yuan a month is in arrears to the landlord for two months, can the landlord dare him go。。。。。。

"Hey, what can I do now, I have about 300 yuan left on my body, and I don't even have a place to live now, hey, what can I do." Liu Yang hung his head and sighed.

In this way, Liu Yang walked aimlessly on the road, and the dazzling sunlight shook so that he couldn't lift his head. As he walked, Liu Yang glanced to the side and saw a small note posted at the bottom of a telephone pole. The small note is not the kind of color printing, which says that it is a garbage advertisement that goes into the water, looks for a lady, and does Zheng surrogacy, but simply writes two lines of words in black and white: "The house is rented, the price is low, and it is negotiable." Then here is the address: No. 44 Yinke Road, West Third Ring Road, ten kilometers east of Taihe Road.

Seeing this advertisement, Liu Yang suddenly came to his senses, just now he has no place to live, this small note is so simple must have been printed by the landlord himself, it said that the price is low, and this location, West Third Ring Road, such a remote location will definitely not be high. It's this landlord, why don't you leave a phone number for people to contact, ah~ There's no way, just go directly.

Liu Yang checked the bus route and found that there was no shuttle bus to Yinke Road, so he could only go to Taihe Road first and then walk, "Damn, just say why add a Taihe Road to the east ten kilometers behind this address, it turns out that there is no car to go to this special one." ”

Just thinking about it, a taxi stopped next to Liu Yang, and the driver rolled down the window and poked his head out: "Brother, where are you going?"

Liu Yang just wanted to respond, but when he thought that he had more than three hundred left in his pocket, it would cost less than sixty or seventy yuan to take a taxi so far, so Liu Yang waved his hand at the driver, and then pulled the suitcase and walked to the bus stop under the bus stop with a big cloth bag.

The bus came after a while, Liu Yang carried a bunch of things and got on the bus, fortunately, there are not many people in this small town, and there is nothing to go out in the hot weather, so the bus is still quite empty.

"Whew, I'm tired, I can finally sit and rest." Liu Yang breathed a long sigh of relief, grabbed his collar and kept fanning the wind.

"Hey, boy, the finish line has arrived, wake up, boy." Liu Yang opened his eyes dimly, and the bus driver's face suddenly came into view.

"Huh?" Liu Yang rubbed his eyes, "It's here, oh" Liu Yang was so sleepy just now that he fell asleep, and he slept to the terminal station all of a sudden, but fortunately, Taihe Road Station is the terminal station, and he is not afraid of sitting at the station.

"Well~~~~~~" got out of the car, Liu Yang stretched a sturdy waist, dragged his luggage and walked towards Yinke Road. "Oops, ten kilometers, it's going to die." Walking while complaining, complaining is complaining, the place still has to go, there is no way, who makes himself poor jingle.

As I walked, the sky slowly became dark, and the clouds in the sky were very thick, jet black, giving people the feeling that there would be a lightning bolt at any time.

Liu Yang didn't care what the weather was, looking at the desolation all around, except for a few houses scattered on the road, which looked quite dilapidated, and no one lived in it for a long time, and the weeds around the house had grown a lot. "This place is so weird, it feels eerie. But it's so remote here, and his rent must be cheap. Thinking like this, Liu Yang doesn't care what the surrounding environment is, as long as he spends less money, he is willing to live wherever he wants.

After walking for more than two hours, Liu Yang finally arrived at Yinke Road, and at first glance, there was only one house here, which was the same square as the countryside, but it seemed that it should be quite large inside.

Whew!! Liu Yang knocked on the door a few times.

Squeak~~ After a while, the door was opened, and an old man who looked quite old walked out of the door.

"Hello uncle, may I ask if you are renting a house, I saw an advertisement." Seeing that the master came out, Liu Yang hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

The old man squinted, looked at Liu Yang and didn't speak, and waved his hand to signal Liu Yang to come in.

Liu Yang looked at it and thought: That's right, it must be this. Then Liu Yang couldn't wait to ask: "Uncle, how is the room fee calculated, I saw your advertisement that the price is low."

The old man stopped suddenly, and then said: "Eighty yuan a month, just give the money at the beginning of each month."

The old man's voice was very hoarse and dry, as if he had not spoken for many years, giving people the impression that a corpse was talking in a rotten voice. Liu Yang couldn't help but shudder when he heard this voice, and now Liu Yang's mind cleared up, no, why is this house so gloomy, how does the weather feel so cold in July, after looking around, the furniture in the room has fallen a layer of dust, definitely not the appearance of a living person, looking at the old man, Liu Yang was surprised to find that this old man walked as if he was sliding forward, and looked down so frightened that Liu Yang's heart was about to jump out: This old man has no feet.

Looking at this scene, Liu Yang's back was in a cold sweat. I felt like I was convulsing all over my body, "This, this fuck, can't it be a ghost!!! ”
