Zhao Lin drove away the splashing skin and patted off the dust on his body, and the strange smell always lingered.

"This thing should be a kind of musk powder."

Liang Song walked over and said, "I heard that there is a spice that will not be lost for several months after being contaminated, and it can be found even if you escape to the ends of the earth with a strange beast that is good at smelling the fragrance." ”

Zhao Lin thought for a moment and muttered: "No wonder the corpse is hidden so hidden, bandits can find it, it is likely that it is by this means." ”

"I think so too." Liang Song agreed, and then suddenly said, "You just ...... Run so fast! ”

Zhao Lin knew that he couldn't hide it, so he tried his best to explain: "I have a lot of strength, so I naturally run fast." ”

"Makes sense......"

The two walked and talked, and after a while came to the tooth shop.

Yahang is a small half-room door, and there are many house rental and sale notices posted on the wall in a mess.

"Two guest officers, rent or buy?"

The two were looking at the notice outside, and a woman in her fifties poked her head out of the door and asked.

Zhao Lin said: "Rent a house." ”

Ya Poti skirt walked out of the house and said enthusiastically: "What kind of house do you want, there are expensive and cheap ones." ”

"Safe." Zhao Lin and Liang Song said at the same time.

Ya Po looked at the two carefully, covered her mouth and smiled: "Are the two of you mixed with the underworld or the white way?" ”

Liang Song frowned and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"Of course it does!"

Ya Po explained seriously: "If you are involved in the underworld, the farther away from the government as possible, I will find you a place with a lot of people and eyes, and ensure that you are hidden in the city." ”

Then she changed her words, "If it is a mixed white way, then the closer to the official mansion is better, it is best to have a fast patrol during the day and a strong man to patrol at night." ”

Liang Song said: "We are white. ”

Ya Po smiled: "It must be Shuncheng Street, the county lieutenant and the garrison live on that street, and there are guards all day and night, and the snitch doesn't dare to go." ”

"It's just the price......

Zhao Lin and Liang Song glanced at each other and said, "Let's go and have a look first." ”

Ya Po turned around and entered the house, took out a bunch of keys from the drawer, and led the two of them all the way to Shuncheng Street.

Shuncheng Street is located in the west of the city, the bluestone paved road is neat and clean, most of the pedestrians are brightly dressed, and there are people riding horses and sedan chairs from time to time, and it is the place where the rich live at a glance.

Zhao Lin walked and looked, and found that the houses here were all brick and stone structures, and there was almost no wood to be seen, so he asked Ya Po what was going on.

Ya Po pointed to the black ash on the wall of a house and said: "In the past, many houses here were also made of wood, but ten years ago there was a fire that burned down most of the street, and only a few houses with stone and brick walls were spared. ”

"There are a lot of rich people here, and when they were rebuilt, they all switched to stone slabs as the foundation, and it happened that the county government rebuilt the Yicang, and transported many big stones from the mountains to build houses."

Zhao Lin and Liang Song felt relieved to live in the stone house, and nodded involuntarily.

What was even more satisfying to them was that there were officials patrolling the streets from time to time, and many mansions were guarded by strong family guards.

"How about this is the garrison's house?"

When passing by a magnificent mansion, Ya Po said in a conspicuous tone, and then pointed diagonally to the opposite side, "Over there is the residence of County Lieutenant Li, which is not bad." ”

Zhao Lin glanced at it a few times, and saw that the courtyard wall was tall, the gatehouse was magnificent, and there were many angular spikes on the horse's head wall, and he nodded secretly in his heart.

The county lieutenant was in charge of public security, and the garrison was in charge of the city defense, and he lived on the same street with such a person, and no matter how bold his beard was, he would not dare to blatantly break down the door and assassinate.

At this time, Liang Song leaned into Zhao Lin's ear and whispered, "There are people following behind." ”

Zhao Lin gave him a look back, indicating that he had also seen it.

"I'm going to beat them up!"

"Forget it, they are instructed by others, and we can't hide the matter of finding a house."

Beard is inextricably linked to local gangs, and as long as he is willing to pay for it, some people do this kind of work.

Ya Po led the two to a small house in the south, took out the key, unlocked the door, pushed the door and walked in.

"This is it."

Zhao Lin and Liang Song were a little stunned, this mansion seemed out of place with the whole street.

The gate was broken, and the courtyard was empty, and there was a well in the middle, which was sealed with a large stone.

The inverted seat room, the main room, and the side room are surrounded by a circle, and the door of the hall is pasted with a tiger head charm of the town ghost......

The house is fully furnished, dusty everywhere, and there are several layers of thick spider silk on the beams, and it looks like you can fish.

"This house hasn't been lived in for a long time, right?"

Zhao Lin was puzzled, the location here is good, it should be easy to rent out, and this house has not been lived in for several years.

"It's been a year, but it's good to clean up." Ya Po said vaguely.

Zhao Lin felt that she was not telling the truth, and said with a calm face: "To be honest, I can find out if I find anyone on the street." ”

Liang Song also asked, "What's the matter with the ghost talisman on the gate?" ”

Ya Po laughed dryly, "The guest officer has good eyesight, something happened to this house." ”

"How many lives?" Zhao Lin asked directly.

"It turned out that there lived a grain merchant here, and because his wife had fornicated with others, in a fit of rage, he tied up the adulterer and adulteress, threw her into the well, and she didn't want to open it, and committed suicide by hanging the beam."

The grain merchant had no children and no daughters, and the house fell into the hands of his distant cousin. His cousin was in business at the docks, so he entrusted it to me. ”

After Ya Po finished speaking, she said cheekily: "The things of gods and ghosts are illusory, you two shouldn't mind, right?" ”

Zhao Lin said: "I don't mind if it's cheap." ”

As soon as Ya Po heard that there was a door, she hurriedly said: "It's half cheaper than the market price, 300 yuan for a month for a short-term rent, and 250 yuan for a long-term rent, how about it?" ”

Zhao Lin didn't answer and asked: "Then what about buying?" ”

In this era, houses are far less expensive than in previous lives, and the price of an ordinary house is equivalent to an acre of fertile land, and you can get it for seven or eight taels of silver.

A good location like this is only thirty or forty taels at most, so Zhao Lin asked.

Ya Po was surprised and delighted, and said, "The guest officer wants to buy it?" That's a good idea! ”

"The landlord put up twenty taels for sale, but I haven't sold it for several years, and I make my own opinion, and I will sell it for eighteen taels."

Liang Song was a little confused, and pulled Zhao Lin aside, "What are you buying this haunted house for?" ”

Zhao Lin said calmly: "I want to modify it, it's inconvenient to move the rented one, how much money do you have?" ”

Liang Song touched his body through his clothes, "It's only more than five taels, what about you?" ”

Zhao Lin spread out his hands, "My money has been given to my family, just the two taels of silver I robbed just now." ”

Liang Song said worriedly: "That's not enough." ”

Zhao Lin looked outside the door and sneered: "It's okay, find the ruffians to borrow, don't they like to follow us?" It's really not good to rob bandits. ”

Liang Song's eyes lit up, "Good idea!" ”

"We want to buy this house, but the price has to be cheaper."

The discussion was decided, Zhao Lin and Liang Song bargained with Ya Po, and finally set the price at sixteen taels or four hundred yuan.

Ya Po was prepared, took out the pen, ink, ink and clay and the deed of security that she carried with her, and signed and drew the pledge on both sides......

"After receiving a deposit of two taels and paying the balance within seven days, this house is yours."

Ya Po handed over the door key to Zhao Lin and said with a smile.

Zhao Lin picked up the contract and glanced at the gloomy house in front of him, but he never thought that the first property he owned would be like this.
