The old woman stopped the female red in her hand, looked up at Wu Zhiyuan up and down, and recalled: "Seventy years ago, there was indeed a big family surnamed Lu in this village, but it was long gone. ”

"Is there really someone surnamed Lu?" Wu Zhiyuan blurted out involuntarily, and then asked, "Does this family surnamed Lu have descendants?" ”

"Nope." The old woman replied directly without thinking, "Back then, there was only this family surnamed Lu in this village, and after they left, there was no surname Lu here." ”

"Gone? Why is it gone? Wu Zhiyuan grabbed the phone and asked suspiciously.

The old woman squinted her eyes into the distance, recalled for a moment and replied: "It seems that two people died in their family back then, and the whole family moved away within a few days, as if they were in a hurry, and they didn't ask for any house or anything, and they never came back as soon as they left." ”

"Two dead?" Wu Zhiyuan secretly thought in his heart, one of these people must be the female ghost who claimed to be the "big house" who fell into Zhang Datong's wife, so who is the other person? Seeing that the old woman seemed to know the inside story, she hurriedly asked, "Auntie, do you know who the two people who died in his family were?" ”

The old woman shook her head and said, "I was a child of seven or eight years old that year, and I only knew so much. ”

Wu Zhiyuan let out an "oh", pondered for a moment and asked again: "Then where is the house left by this family surnamed Lu?" ”

The old woman smiled softly when she heard this, with a kind face on her face, her eyes glanced at the place where Wu Zhiyuan was standing, and smiled: "You are under your feet." ”

"What? Over here? Wu Zhiyuan looked at the soil under his feet and secretly wondered if the house of the Nalu family was buried in the ground?

The old woman put the needle and thread in the basket on the side, stood up tremblingly, and walked to the gate of the courtyard, and Wu Zhiyuan followed.

"The surname Lu is a big family, the house is very big, do you see the three thatched houses in the easternmost part?" The old woman pointed to the house to the east and asked, Wu Zhiyuan looked in the direction she was pointing, it was the house of Zhang Datong's family.

"Zhang Datong's family?" Wu Zhiyuan asked.

"Yes, you look west." The old woman nodded, and then stretched out her hand to the west, and there was also a family at the top of the west, but the house building of this family was made of blue bricks, although it was dilapidated, but its layout and style were still very obvious, obviously the building of the middle of the Qing Dynasty. In the thatched houses in this village, it looks out of place and very eye-catching. What's even more strange is that all the houses in this village sit north to south, and the courtyard gate opens south, and although the courtyard gate of this family is also open to the south, when the house sits west to east, it is more like a wing house.

"The dilapidated house is the wing house of the family surnamed Lu back then, the house surnamed Lu has almost collapsed, and the people in the village have rebuilt the house on this piece of land, but he is lazy and lazy, and he has been a bachelor all his life, so he lived directly in that side room, which was windy and rainy, and it was so improvised and mixed." The old woman said, sighing softly.

Hearing the old woman's words, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly realized that the house in the west was the west wing of the Lu family, no wonder the layout and style were so different. After thinking about it, there were no other questions, Wu Zhiyuan said goodbye to the old woman, the old man waved his hand to Wu Zhiyuan, turned around and walked to the courtyard, Wu Zhiyuan saw her ankles exposed a thick footcloth, a pair of small feet walked tremblingly, alone, and suddenly felt pity, he took out two pieces of ocean from his body, quietly put them on the inside of the threshold, turned around and walked out.

After coming out, Wu Zhiyuan went directly to the so-called broken house in the westernmost part, since the house he lived in was the west wing of the family surnamed Lu, he might be able to find some clues about the big house surnamed Lu.

Walking to the door, Wu Zhiyuan stopped and looked inside, only to see that the courtyard wall of this family had collapsed in half, and there was only one courtyard door left, crumbling in the breeze, the yard was overgrown with withered grass, and there was only one path for one person to pass.

Wu Zhiyuan didn't make a sound, but walked in directly, and only when he entered the courtyard did he see the whole situation inside. This is not a house at all, and there is no formal house, only a wing room on the west side facing east, which is extremely dilapidated, the doors and windows are decayed, and the window paper on the window lattice has not even left traces, which shows that it has not been changed for decades. The bricks and tiles on the eaves are broken, and the grandeur of the former big family is gone.

There was a man about forty years old sitting at the door, the man raised his head, and under his messy hair was a pair of decadent eyes, and when Wu Zhiyuan saw him, he also saw Wu Zhiyuan.

When he looked at Wu Zhiyuan, he looked indifferent and expressionless, but when Wu Zhiyuan saw him, he couldn't help but be startled by him.

At this time, it was the alternation of autumn and winter, but the man was actually sitting naked by the door, and only wearing a single coat on his upper body, and he didn't seem to feel cold when the autumn wind blew. It's not enough, the terrifying thing is that the man's legs are covered with blood bubbles, the blood bubbles bulge, and the red blood in the bubbles can be faintly seen, as if they will be broken at the slightest touch. What makes people's hairs stand up even more is that the skin on the inner side of the man's two thighs is cracked and scarred, with pieces of hard lumps, at this time he is looking at Wu Zhiyuan, and he uses his black hand to tear off the scarred skin piece by piece, after the scarred skin is torn off, the muscles and vasculature are exposed, which is very terrifying!

The man didn't seem to feel pain, he just looked at Wu Zhiyuan expressionlessly, but his hand groped on his thigh and tore off pieces of scar skin.

Wu Zhiyuan stabilized his mind and did not speak, the scene in front of him was strange and abnormal, ordinary people would never behave like this, this man was very likely to have encountered a ghost skin!

The ghost skin is recorded in Shigong's Maoshan notes, and it is often because this person collided with the ghost that he was subjected to such cruel revenge. What is infuriating is that Shigong did not write down the method of cracking at all in the hand-copied notebook, and only left the words "resigned to fate".

Wu Zhiyuan suddenly felt that his master was a little irresponsible, and he prevaricated with "resignation to fate" in everything, so why did he have to be sent by Maoshan to eliminate the demon guard? Isn't that redundant?

Thinking about it, Wu Zhiyuan stood in place and asked the man, "Your legs are all broken, are you okay?" ”

When the man saw Wu Zhiyuan speak, he laughed stupidly, looking stupid, and asked with a stiff expression: "Do I know you?" ”

When Wu Zhiyuan heard his words, he knew that this person was not crazy and stupid, and he replied: "You don't know me, but you should know Zhang Datong." Seeing that the man didn't react, Wu Zhiyuan continued to ask: "Zhang Datong's wife is ghosted, do you know?" ”
