Chapter 49: The Resentment of the Deep House (7)
"We're out!"
Sang Ling hadn't figured out why she had dreamed of Xie Hanzhou and Lu Chaoyan in her dream last night, and she felt that the light in front of her suddenly lit up.
The stone steps under the feet are continuous, out of the hole, there is still a large section of long stone steps in front of the mountain winding along it, looking up into the distance, there is a corner of the eaves at the end from the towering mountain forest, the roof tiles are simple, it should be the rumored deep house.
"I heard that this deep house was built by a wealthy family in Silk City, and I also invited the master to build it according to the feng shui of the mountain, which cost a lot of money and took a long time to complete. The wealthy merchant secretly built this place to house his group of concubines. In the past, when the mountain people used the mountain water at the foot of the mountain, they could smell a smell of rouge! ”
Su Luo slowly told the rumors of the deep house, and walked all the way on the stone steps, but he didn't feel tired anymore.
"It's just that, later, I heard that there were wild monsters in this deep house, and many women died, and after a few decades, this place was abandoned."
Sang Ling heard the same thing from the villagers-
For some reason, people died, and the rest of the people ran away, and only one yard was abandoned.
At the beginning, some bold villagers wanted to come to hunt for treasure, but the treasure was not obtained, and many crazy villagers were killed, and gradually the villagers who came were gone. Later, there were many rumors, and some rangers would come over and want to kill the wild monsters in the house, but for some reason, there was no follow-up.
Later, there was no news of this deep house.
Now that I think about it, it should be the entrance collapse, and the rest of the people are not as easy as their good luck to come, so as they come and go, there are fewer and fewer people.
It's just that.
Sang Ling couldn't help but speak:
"What do you want to do in the deep house?"
The reason that the boy said before to get rid of the trouble, now that I think about it, there are no more dead people here, how can it be more important than those evil monsters that threaten the villagers all the time? Kill those, and your reputation will naturally be out, so why bother so hard to come to this place.
Su Luo stopped and looked back at her, with a rare positive color on his face:
"Usually there are sects and families to eradicate it, but this deep house is outside the Silk City, and it only comes and goes for a few hundred miles, even if it is in the mountains outside the city, it is also the scope of the protection of those families. But one by one, they all ignored it, let the evil cause chaos, and the rumors have been going on for a long time, so I naturally have to go beyond this to live up to the family teachings. ”
Sang Ling looked at him silently, she always felt that when Su Luo talked about the family, there was a trace of disdain and ridicule in her expression, and when she looked at it again, it was not like that, she thought about it, and only felt that she was dazzled.
Judging by his speech, temperament, and utensils, they are not inferior, they should not be ordinary casual cultivation, and he has a good upbringing.
Su Luo smiled, seeing Sang Ling squinting and looking at him, with a hint of suspicion, he didn't care at all, and continued:
"Now, the families of this Silk City are all socializing with the Heavenly Dao Sect, and they all want to get close to each other, and if they can get in touch with the Heavenly Dao Sect, it is best to become a master of this cultivation realm, but they have forgotten the monk's heart, don't you say that the cultivation realm is so ethical?"
Su Luo's clean and clear voice seemed to have a bit of sharpness in it, stabbing people sharply.
Sang Ling was silent, pretending not to hear the name of the sect, as well as all the news about that person, and only said:
"Everything is free, just the heart."
Apparently I don't want to talk about it.
Su Luo saw that she wanted to bury her head in the mud again, and the background of her frozen and defensive eyes gradually faded, and she made a playful smile, and said:
"Keep going, you can't afford to spend all your time on this stone step. If you live here at night, the person who wants to hurt the nightmare will roll down the stone steps and fall into a stupid hamster. ”
"You?!"
Before he had time to question, the young man had already taken three steps and two steps, and walked far away.
Sang Ling was angry:
"Su Luo! What stupid hamster, you make it clear to me! How can you give someone a nickname indiscriminately! Come here! ”
Su Luo had already learned from her, closed his ears, pretended not to hear, and walked fast on the stone steps under his feet.
Sang Ling was panting after chasing behind, eager to grow wings, fly in front of the young man who was walking far away, and blast his dog's head with a fist!
……
Turning a corner, a house with white walls and black tiles appeared in front of me.
The sun outside is excellent, but near the house, it feels cloudy and windy, lonely and cold, and the back is cold.
Sang Ling hurriedly chased here, infected by this atmosphere, and lost the mind to have fun and laugh.
Su Luo stood in front of the door of the house, hesitating to look at her:
"There's no smell of the evil here, and in general, the evil likes to be seen at night. Shall we explore now, find a place to rest, and wait for the evil to appear? Or will there be more daylight tomorrow and so on? ”
Now it is the time of Shen, and in another hour, the sun will set on the earth. The environment of the deep house is complicated, no matter what, if you explore today, you must control the time in one hour. Arrange again, wait again.
If you wait until tomorrow, you will feel like a lot of time has been wasted.
Looking at the confident expression of the young man in front of him, Sang Ling said directly:
"Go in first, see how it goes, and then decide where to stay."
The door of the house is not big, there are two or three stone steps in front of the door, a pair of stone lions on the left and right, and a black lacquer door on the front.
Push the door in, it is a flower hall for hospitality, and there is a shallow pond on the left and right of the open space in the middle, which should be a place for raising fish and flowers. The courtyard is deep, and there are corridors, small pavilions, rockeries, pavilions and pavilions.
Looking at it roughly, the area of the house is not very large, but there is an uncoverable smell of fat powder under the carved fence.
This fat powder smell is not smell, but sight.
Everywhere, including the gate, felt that the courtyard walls were extremely high, and the doors were very few and very narrow, just enough to travel. And the decorative silk and upholstered screens, and the rooms that long to spread with thick cushions in every corner.
Each of them clearly says that this is a woman's nest and a golden wire cage that cages Luo Finch.
Thinking of the rumors, Sang Ling frowned, and her footsteps did not stop.
At this moment, a flower branch poked her face in front of her, blocking the way, and she reached out and stroked a begonia flower that was almost crossed to the sideburns. The flower seems to have been left over from the past, and it grows luxuriantly in a patch of weeds.
The delicate flowers and plants of the past have long been extinguished by the years and natural rain, leaving only a few strong flowers and plants alive, and you can still vaguely see the former glory.
Mulberry crossed the flower and followed the cobblestone path, continuing forward, turning a corner, to the next stretch of the road.
Su Luo, who was behind him, turned back with a smile at this time, and broke off the begonia flower, leaving a long flower branch, which was inserted obliquely into the placket.
The other compartment.
Sang Ling didn't pay much attention to Su Luo's movements, his eyes were still patrolling and carefully looking at the backyard in front of him.
This is the last place they explored, and there was no Kui Yin soil in all the places before, but don't talk about this thing, even the places with heavier Yin Qi are not there.
I don't know if the puppeteer's statement is accurate, is there really such a thing here?
The thoughts in my head were like a mess, and I couldn't find the thread for a while.
Caught off guard, his footsteps suddenly stopped, and a soft thing rushed out, jumping close in three or two clicks. Sang Ling was startled, tightened her body, and quickly turned sideways to avoid.
The thing passed in front of her, and she only had time to see a pair of green pupils, and then there was no more figure.
"What's wrong?"
Before, in order to pick up the flower branch, Su Luo was a few steps behind, a corner away. What Sang Ling experienced just now, Su Luo didn't see it. Seeing Sang Ling exclaiming, as if frightened, he quickly came to the rescue.
Sang Ling shook her head, and lightly pointed to the place where the thing disappeared and said:
"It's a wild cat, I guess I broke into here by mistake. Startled by my movements, I ran. ”
"Wildcats? In such a deep mountain forest, there will be this thing? ”
Su Luo muttered suspiciously, not impressed, but glanced back at the direction where the wild cat had gone.
The wild cat that appeared just now was just an episode, and Sang Ling continued to walk forward. It wasn't until she had walked through the entire backyard courtyard that she couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
I didn't expect that there was no trace of Kuiyin soil in all the places, and there wasn't even much yin qi around, right?
She looked up at the sky, and the sun above her head was fierce.
According to the previous puppeteer's explanation, during the day, if the yang energy is too sufficient, the things in the yin energy cannot be dug up, is it also because you can't see it?
Perhaps, I should come back again in the evening?
……
The cold wind gradually rose, and a little twilight fell, encompassing this house in the deep mountains.
In the deserted, dilapidated, and forgotten courtyard gates, a little fire lit up, and the flickering light came through the wooden windows of the grille, and two figures were imprinted on the ground under the corridor.
Sang Ling wrung out the rag in her hand, lowered her head and wiped the only red lacquered wooden table in the flower hall again, before barely restoring the surface of the table to a little smoother.
This is the closest flower hall to the courtyard gate, which was originally used to entertain guests. The place is spacious, the inside is quite clean, even the roof tile roof is complete, and there is no rain leakage.
The most important thing is that there is no smell of fat powder here, and the floor is directly a smooth slate inlay, not the kind of cushion that I want to cover the house.
"It's really the residence of the Golden House, and it can make people feel like a woman's golden silk cage at any time."
Sang Ling shook her head and sighed, portraying a woman, erasing all her value, leaving only the physical appearance that is good for men, and completely turning a person into a plaything, confined here, and enjoying it every day.
In such a place, the heavy smell of fat powder makes people feel disgusted from the bottom of their hearts.
Flower hall window position.
Su Luozheng patiently wiped a gray white jade vase, the vase was small, the mouth of the bottle was slender and the body of the bottle was round, delicate and elegant, but the vase had been eroded by the years, and there was a heavy dark color around it.
Sang Ling only thought that this bottle was picked up by Su Luo from the flower hall, and said suspiciously:
"This vase is beautiful, but with such a thin bottle mouth, it's hard to find the flowers inserted on it."
Su Luo smiled, and suddenly took out a begonia flower from the placket of his clothes like a trick. Holding the thin flower branch in his hand, he shook the branch flower at Sang Ling, and said with a smile:
"Isn't that just right?"
