Chapter 94: The South Sea Spell Master
There are many houses in the Uncursed Town, but they are by no means casual for you to live in.
Strictly speaking, there are all lords here, that is, the uncursed town guards and the northwest town guards.
In order to build a curseless town, Kyoto invested more than a billion dollars. Countless manpower and material resources have been mobilized.
In order to save money, Kyoto even sent workers to build a cement factory dozens of kilometers away.
At that time, it was not as good as it is now, because of the remote location and the harsh climate, hundreds of workers died here. How can the tortoise-shaped houses that they have spent countless amounts of money build for people to live in vain?
Therefore, the entire uncursed town is actually an industry that belongs to Kyoto.
The seven-year-old master said that if you want to stay in a curseless town, you have to pay for a rent, or simply buy it out.
In the beginning, no one wanted to buy a house in this place where birds don't, especially the uncursed town guard, and the house price was comparable to the courtyard houses in Kyoto's second ring road.
But later, when the Uncursed Road was confirmed as the only passage between the underworld and the Yang world, the housing prices here rose.
Some knowledgeable exorcists have invested in buying property here, but the Uncursed Warden quickly realizes the importance of the town and raises the price again and again.
In the end, the purchase was simply stopped, and only the exorcist was allowed to rent a house here.
Therefore, now the houses in the uncursed town are all owned, and outsiders can only rent a house to live in, otherwise they will sleep on the street.
In this hellish place, there is not a sturdy and sturdy house, sleeping on the street? Looking for death.
Neither Chang Wanqing nor I had ever entered the curseless town, so we were dumbfounded and at a loss for what to do. I asked, "What, how much is the rent here?" ”
The seven-year-old master smiled and said, "It's not expensive, about 300,000 a month." ”
I gasped, 300,000 a month? Ten thousand a day? The Uncursed Guardian is trying to grab money!
The seven-year-old master smiled: "Don't be too expensive, living in a house is life-saving, living outside, there will be Yin Qi invasion at night, when there is no house protection, Yin Qi enters the body, and the life fire is weak, that is to be lifeless." ”
"But Shaolin Temple has a property here, if you don't dislike it, you can come and live."
Chang Wanqing and I nodded one after another, 10,000 a day, even if the exorcist has money, he can't afford such an expense. Besides, the Shaolin Temple is famous, and the murderous ghosts and ghosts in the uncursed town are probably not willing to go to the trouble of the Shaolin Temple.
When you're away from home, safety is paramount.
The dusty wrangler soon drove into the wide concrete road. After a few days of traveling, it was the first time I felt this kind of smooth comfort.
Despite the sunny outside, the streets of the town were empty and there was not a single figure. Only the roadside windows were slightly open, and someone was looking through the window to see the new car.
The whole town was so quiet that it felt like a ghost.
I couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Don't the people here come out for activities?" ”
The seven-year-old master smiled: "What are you active during the day?" It's a nightlife. Only the evening is exciting enough. ”
After speaking, he stretched out his hand and said, "Turn left at the intersection ahead, the third door." ”
As soon as the words fell, we saw the door of the room next to me suddenly open, and a gray-haired old man jumped out of it and stopped directly in front of our car.
I was startled, hurriedly stepped on the brakes, and said angrily, "What are you doing!" ”
As I spoke, I had already held the tantric iron rod in the palm of my hand, ready to do it at any moment.
The old man's face was wrinkled, his beard was unkempt, his hair was white like weeds, and his eyes, especially his eyes, were red like evil spirits.
His voice was hoarse, like a wild beast roaring: "I have the Earth's Heart Soul Melting Grass!" Do you want! ”
As soon as the words "Soul Melting Grass" were spoken, I saw a crack open in the gates of half the street, revealing a pair of fanatical eyes.
Chang Wanqing said with a smile: "The Earth Heart Soul Melting Grass is very precious, I'm sorry, we can't afford it." ”
The old man shouted in a low voice: "Give it away for nothing! But you have to do one thing for me! ”
I asked curiously, "What's the matter?" ”
Chang Wanqing's face changed, and he hurriedly covered my mouth. He was about to open his mouth when he heard the old man shouting, "Kill the coffin bearer!" Help me kill the coffin bearer, the Soul Melting Grass in the Heart of the Earth is yours! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the doors of the surrounding rooms slamming shut, as if he had seen a plague, and no one was looking up.
Someone in one of the rooms shouted, "Crazy old man! You want to die and find a room to hang yourself! Don't fucking bother us! ”
Chang Wanqing roared in a low voice: "This is a madman! Ignore him! Drive! ”
I've long heard of the notoriety of the coffin bearer, this bastard loves to chew people's brains and hearts, and even the Uncursed Guardian is reluctant to provoke him easily.
Kill him? Just kidding!
Not to mention a Soul Melting Grass in the Heart of the Earth, no one would dare to take this job even if it was ten times more!
I hurriedly pulled the car back, trying to get around the gray-haired mad old man. But the crazy old man pounced like a maggot on the tarsal bone, and slapped the window glass with his hand: "The person carrying the coffin is next to Xiaoyin Lake!" Find a way! Kill him! This thing is yours! ”
I jerked the steering wheel, and the car accelerated suddenly, and then quickly turned left into a small alley paved with bluestone slabs.
As soon as the car was stopped, I heard a vicious voice from behind the door next to me: "If you want to live, move the car away!" Get in the way of Lao Tzu, beware of Lao Tzu giving you a curse! ”
I was sweating profusely when I said this, and I hurried forward again. Then he turned his head to the seven-year-old master and smiled bitterly: "Who is that?" It seems to be our neighbor. ”
The seven-year-old master looked serious and said, "I guess it's renting a house, this ghost place, changing neighbors is not as simple as eating and drinking?" ”
"Mr. Zhang, park the car, don't put your valuable equipment in the car."
"The Uncursed Warden has a duty to protect the tenants and residents of the rooms, but nothing happens on the streets."
I nodded, in understanding.
The meaning of this is actually very simple, only if you are in the house, your life safety will be guaranteed to a certain extent. If you go out, even if someone kills you on the street, the Uncursed Warden won't give you a second look.
It's a rule that has been passed down for decades in the town of Uncursed.
As he was thinking, the seven-year-old master had already jumped out of the car with his backpack in tow, and he took out a key from his bosom, turned it twice in the keyhole, and then heard a click, and the door opened easily.
He was about to enter the door, when the eerie voice next door came again: "Hmph, Shaolin Temple still dares to go back to the uncursed town?" Aren't you afraid that the old man who hides the soul will block the door again? ”
The seven-year-old master has a good cultivation, and said with a smile: "Senior brother offended the old man who hid the soul back then, and he blocked the door for seven days, which is natural." If the senior of the Tibetan Soul feels uneasy, he can block the door again, and the little monk will never complain. ”
The eerie voice next door suddenly stopped talking.
Chang Wanqing raised his eyebrows and said, "Who is that person?" ”
