Chapter 18 Lu Mansion
"Near the tower, woe to the wall! The big window on the west side, the white tiger opens! There is obviously something wrong with the feng shui of this house, so it's no wonder if something doesn't happen! Guiguzi looked around and said in a solemn whisper.
"Yin and blood coagulation, winding the beam into water, this is clearly a manifestation of gathering yin! With such a scale of Yin Gathering Land, presumably the Yin Qi of the entire Lu Town should have been gathered here! Lin Yi looked up at the dense droplets of water formed by the moisture above the beams of the main gate and room, and nodded approvingly.
The two stood in place and watched for a while, and then Guiguzi said, "Brother Lin, look at this situation, what happened inside?" ”
Lin Yi shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, I haven't been in the industry for a long time, so naturally I can't see it." But since we're here, of course we have to go in and see what is going on, and I hope there won't be geist-level ghosts inside! ”
As the two of them were talking, the closed mahogany door finally opened slowly, and out of it came a thin old man, with a very bad complexion and sunken eyes.
When the old man came out, he first saw Nie Linghuan standing at the front, looked Nie Linghuan up and down, then shook his head and said, "I'm sorry for this girl, we won't recruit maids here for the time being." With that, the old man was about to close the door again.
Seeing that he had been misunderstood, Nie Linghuan hurriedly stopped the old man and said with a slight annoyance: "What, am I so like a maid?" I'm a disciple of Maoshan, and I heard that you are making monsters here, so I came here to help you take a look. ”
When the old man heard this, he looked at Nie Linghuan again, and said with a smile: "Little girl, our monsters here are very powerful, can you do it at a young age?" ”
"Okay, I don't know until I see it! Take me in first! ”
Saying that, Nie Linghuan didn't care about the old man's attitude, beckoned to Lin Yi and Guiguzi behind him, pushed the door and walked in. Lin Yi and Guiguzi smiled helplessly, and walked in together.
As soon as he walked into the door, Lin Yi felt a cold and damp breath rushing to his face! It was as if it was the rainy season in the courtyard, and the fishy musty smell made Lin Yi frown.
"What a strong evil spirit! Although it is not as good as that of Yinyi Village, there are living people living here! Brother Lin, it seems that we have to find the source of the evil qi as soon as possible, otherwise not only this Lu Mansion, but also the entire Lu Town will suffer with it! Guiguzi said, and involuntarily walked to Nie Linghuan's side, apparently trying to protect her.
I don't know why, the light in the courtyard in broad daylight is a little dim, and I don't know if it's because of the evil spirit, or because this courtyard is relatively deserted.
It is obviously the early spring season, but there is no sign of spring in the courtyard, but there are dead branches and willows, residual flowers and fallen leaves everywhere, plus there is no one in the courtyard of Nuoda, the whole Lu Mansion gives people a feeling that it has been abandoned for a long time, and it is not as grand as it looks from the outside.
Maybe it was the desolate feeling in the courtyard that made Nie Linghuan very uncomfortable, but I saw that she suddenly quickened her pace, and came to the living room of the Lu Mansion in three or two, and sat at the table before breathing a sigh of relief.
The house as a whole is very atmospheric, and the furnishings inside are very neat, the ground is also very clean, it seems that someone still cleans it often, but the temperature in this room seems to be a little colder than the outside.
"Hey, you two will be with me for a while, this house doesn't seem quite right. But don't worry, I said I would protect you. Nie Linghuan saw the old man coming out, lowered his head and whispered to Lin Yi and the others.
Lin Yi smiled secretly in his heart, thinking that we naturally know better than you what is wrong with this house, but he was still moved by Nie Linghuan's enthusiasm, and nodded with a light smile.
Not long after the three of them sat around the table, the old man came in with a pot of tea and a few teacups to pour tea and water for the three of them.
At this time, Nie Linghuan hadn't spoken yet, Lin Yi asked first, "This old man, what happened here?" Why are you alone? Can you tell us about it? ”
As soon as he heard this, the old man sighed, sat beside Lin Yi and said with a sad face: "The three of you don't know something, I am the gatekeeper of this Lu Mansion, who in this Lu Town does not know the name of my lord Lu Gong?" The richest man in town! I didn't want to be like this here before, every day was full of people, and there was an endless stream of people visiting the master. And the master is also a group of wives and concubines, and the two daughters are around their knees, which is not as bleak at all. But not long ago, the master's youngest son died suddenly for some reason, and strange things began to happen. ”
When the old man said this, Guiguzi suddenly interjected: "By the way, old man, let me ask you a question first, has this big mansion been renovated recently?" ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and then nodded: "That's right, just before the death of the master's youngest son, there was indeed a renovation here, is there a problem?" ”
Hearing this, Lin Yi and Guiguzi probably understood what was going on in their hearts, so they said, "It's okay, you continue." ”
"I said, why are you asking such innocuous questions? It's really inexperienced. Old man, you continued, don't pay attention to them, they are all my junior brothers, and I am the main person in charge today. Nie Linghuan glanced at Guiguzi reproachfully, causing Guiguzi to immediately lower his head in frustration and no longer refute, but he still couldn't help whispering: "This is not an innocuous question, this is the key."
The old man continued: "Since the death of the master's youngest son, the entire people of the old man's family who live here seem to have become a little abnormal, except for the master himself. The old man's wife and concubines and two daughters seemed to be frightened, and they were suspicious every day, as if someone was trying to harm them. And I could occasionally hear a woman crying in the yard in the middle of the night, and I was so scared that I didn't dare to go out and see what was going on! ”
After that, the master's wife and concubines began to die inexplicably one after another, almost one every day. At this time, the old man finally realized that something was wrong with this house, and moved out of here with his family overnight, leaving me here alone to watch the house. But nothing strange has happened here since, until today, when the three of you came. ”
Speaking of this, the old man sighed lightly and said: "Three, that's the way it is, if you can really help the master get rid of the strange things here, with the master's personality, he will definitely give you a lot of money!" ”
Listening to the whole thing, Lin Yi and Guiguzi were silent, but Nie Linghuan didn't seem to hear the seriousness of the matter, got up and patted his chest and said, "Grandpa, don't worry!" We are Maoshan disciples, so things can naturally be handled here! As for the money, we don't want it, you go and help me prepare some incense and candles and tributes, and I will open the altar for you!" ”
