In the blink of an eye, the hairs on my body stood on end.

Is it the wind? It's not windy either!

The "crunch" sound is still ringing.

The door opened......

A dark shadow appeared, very short, hunched over, stooping over the threshold and standing under the lantern.

My little heart twitched and tightened.

It's so infiltrating!

If you look closely, it is an old woman with a wrinkled face, short, only about 1.5 meters, wearing an old-fashioned coat with a placket.

The ancient house, the vermilion lacquer gate, two dim red lanterns, and the old woman standing at the door come into view.

Xu Yanxin grabbed me and asked in a trembling voice.

"Song ...... Song Daring, this ...... Is it a human or a ghost? ”

"If you can see it, of course it's a human being."

The little celestial master stood to my right and replied faintly.

"That's right."

I also gave Xu Yanxin an affirmative answer, and I felt that his hands suddenly stopped shaking.

"Who's Master Cocoa?" The old woman's voice was hoarse.

Is she a commissioned client?

"I am, may I ask who you are?"

"Hello Master Coco, I am the master of this house, and the Seven Peerless Dao Masters told me that you might come over tonight,

I heard the sound of parking outside and came out to look. I've really waited for the master, let's talk inside. ”

The old woman turned to the side and invited us in.

Without rest so late, the old woman is really energetic.

I glanced at the dark rumbling courtyard and hesitated.

I'm a spirit woman, and I took on this task again, and in the end, I still endured the fear in my heart.

With his left hand leading Xu Yanxin, and with his right hand leading the little Heavenly Master, he walked inside.

The old woman closed the door slowly after we entered.

Suddenly, a little bit of light was also blocked out of the door, and there was a black rumbling in front of him.

"Ahem...... the old woman leaned over and coughed and walked to the front to lead the way.

This walk...... It's slow!

"Alas! I'm old, my body is not flexible, walk slowly, don't worry. ”

The little heavenly master is smart and clever, he took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight mode to illuminate, and I just remembered, why are you so stupid! It's not like I don't have a phone.

Under the bright light of the mobile phone, I walked around a shadow wall, and a row of rooms in front of me came into view.

The light was on in one of the rooms, but it didn't feel very bright, and the floor and the flower beds in front of the house were faintly visible.

The ground is an ancient stone road, which has a sense of age, and the doors and windows of the house feel like the style of the Republic of China, vicissitudes and heavy.

"Old woman, when was your house built?"

I asked the old woman as I walked.

"Ahem...... It's been more than 100 years now, and it's been rebuilt several times. ”

It's really an old house.

Entering the room, there is a plaque on the front wall, which reads: Apricot Forest Warm Spring.

It seems that the owner of the old mansion used to be a doctor, otherwise how could there be such an inscription, it should still be a family with a certain reputation.

Below is a carved wooden table, and two carved wooden chairs, one on the left and one on the right, I don't know exactly what kind of wood.

On the left and right sides of the house, there are also several carved wooden tables and chairs.

The overall antique and era atmosphere is coming.

There is no main light in the house, and there is a floor lamp in the corner, no wonder the room is not bright.

The old woman sat down on the chair on the left side of the front and coughed several times in succession.

"Sit down, ahem......"

The three of us sat down in the lower position, and I sat in the first seat on the left, very close to the old woman.

"I thought Master Coco wouldn't come back tonight, but I didn't expect you to keep your word."

"Mother-in-law, you are polite, the specific situation has been told to me by the Seven Peerless Dao Elders today, are you living alone in this house?"

"The house is so old, ahem...... It's like getting old, and you don't want to be seen. The children didn't want to live here, and they all moved out when they got married.

I'm not in good health these days, and I'm going to the hospital tomorrow for a few days to recuperate, and the master is here, just to give you the key, and let the master bother. ”

"Since you have taken the task, you can rest assured, you will definitely let you live brightly when you come back, without those gloom.

I guess the dirt didn't come today, so I'll take a look at it again to be on the safe side, and you wait a while. ”

I was going to use my compass to check out the ghosts, but the old woman sat in the hall, and in order not to disturb her, she got up and walked out of the door.

The courtyard was cool and swishing, and after looking around, he took out the compass from his school bag.

With a "buzz", the compass flew out, circled around me, and stopped in front of me, shining yellow.

I waited for a while, and saw that there was no movement in the compass, and there were no red markings.

It seems that the ghost should not come tonight. Since the ghost is not here, why is the temperature still so low?

Walk back to the hall.

"Mother-in-law, you can rest in peace tonight, and tomorrow you go to recuperate, and I will take care of it here."

After that, my mother-in-law handed me the keys to their house, and after a few more pleasantries, we said goodbye and left.

Get out and get in the car.

"Sister Lingpo, why do I feel weird when I enter their house, I can't tell what's wrong?"

What the little Heavenly Master said was exactly what I thought, and I don't know what went wrong.

"Little Heavenly Master, you're right, since the ghost is not here, the old woman's house shouldn't be so yin and cold.

Let's come over early tomorrow night and have a good check-up. ”

"Okay, we can also arrange it in advance, I can put the big array on it, in case it is a thousand-year-old ghost, we also have precautions."

The little heavenly master's idea is very pleasing to my liking, prepare in advance just in case, a good strategy.

I touched the little celestial master's head approvingly and looked at him with a smile.

"Little Heavenly Master, Sister Ben likes you more and more."

I felt that the little Heavenly Master shuddered, and he raised his eyebrows.

"Sister, you are not allowed to flirt with the little heavenly master of the good family,"

"Cut, flirtation? This is the most beautiful little spirit woman who can afford you, don't know what to do. ”

I glared at him, ignoring him, Xu Yanxin drove in front of him and laughed dryly.

After a while, Xu Yanxin said angrily.

"Lei Gong beats tofu - one thing descends one thing."

Little Heavenly Master and I glanced at each other, but neither of them spoke.

I don't know who and I are descending to whom now, in short, Little Heavenly Master is smart and very likable.

……

The next morning.

I took out my mobile phone and WeChat to contact Director Wang of the school.

[Director Wang, hello, the school's affairs have been completely resolved, please settle the balance payment. 】

Originally, I was waiting for the "ding ......" sound of WeChat to check the surprise.

How do you know that WeChat is ringing.

But it was a WeChat message from Director Wang.

[How do you prove that it has been solved?] I won't pay the bill without proof. 】
