Chapter 409: Panic House
"Don't be disgusted, who doesn't want to do door-to-door business? I wouldn't have said this if I hadn't been able to live it, but it did, and I'll call you a man, and I'll take you there." ”
The shopkeeper arched his hand apologetically, returned to the back of the counter and called the guy before, who also looked at the eight strong men behind Lu Liangsheng and took a closer look, and when he heard the shopkeeper's words, he hesitated for a moment, but still stretched out his hand.
"Childe, and all of you, go this way!"
"There is labor to lead the way!"
Lu Liangsheng replied with a smile, called the Taoist, and Lu Panba, who followed the guy out of the inn, turned around and went to the alley next to him, the alley wall was old and crawling with moss, because of a rain, the ground was potholed and muddy, and it was not long in the alley, out of the alley, compared to the noisy pedestrians on the other side of the street, this side is a verdant bamboo forest, and occasionally there are a few graves mixed with the forest, which looks a little gloomy.
The guy was afraid that the scenery of the bamboo forest would make these people afraid, so he turned around and said:
"Ladies and gentlemen, these forests have their own families, and most of the dead in their families are buried in their own land. ”
Lu Liangsheng looked at a few graves in the distance, the tombstones were crawling with moss, and the grave soil was even more overgrown with weeds, and he couldn't feel the slightest yin qi.
Retracting his gaze, he smiled:
"Little brother, it's okay, we've also walked a lot of roads, the barren mountains and mountains have come, and a few graves won't scare us, by the way, why is that house so remote?"
"Actually, it's not too far, it's just ahead. ”
In the rustling footsteps, the man pointed to a cluster of bamboo groves, the dry ditch was glowing green, and walked across the wooden bridge above to the house that the shopkeeper had spoken.
The clumps of bamboos stand on the side of the wall and bend down, the wind blows, the leaves rattle and sweep away the green and black moss on the long wall, the high courtyard gate is full of withered yellow bamboo leaves, and the tattered lanterns hang on both sides of the eaves and shake gently, revealing the bamboo strips inside.
"Childe, this is it. ”
The man took out the key, opened the copper lock on it, and then pushed the courtyard door open with great difficulty, and the accumulated dust fell in a pour.
Ahem~~
The guy choked twice, waved his sleeves to fan away the dust, and invited Lu Liangsheng in.
"Ladies and gentlemen, do you think it is still eye-catching? This house, which was originally a big family, fell into disuse, and the family moved away, and it took many years before it fell into the hands of my shopkeeper, and I didn't have time to take care of it. ”
The family is in the middle of the road, and such a big house is abandoned, Lu Liangsheng naturally won't believe this kind of words, but this courtyard is not much with the Zhou University Scholar's Mansion in Hegu County, and it is a pity that it is dilapidated like this.
The eaves are full of fallen leaves, and the color of the feng shui wall has long since fallen off, leaving many mottled by wind and rain.
The courtyard is full of withered yellow, and it looks decadent.
, the scholar looked twice in front of the feng shui wall, and looked back at the shopkeeper.
"It's out of the way, anyway, let's get together for one night, little brother, go back and bring us some food." ”
"Okay, okay, then the boy and you will go find a few rooms to live in, and the little one will bring you food later. ”
Noting down the names of a few dishes, the fellow hurried out, looked back again, swallowed his saliva, and walked quickly across the wooden bridge towards the backyard of the inn.
The Taoist stood at the door and retracted his gaze, leading the old donkey in: "The little brother of the shopkeeper, he doesn't want to stay longer in a hurry, I'm afraid it's not haunted here, right?"
Lu Pan, who was packing his luggage, raised his head, and Lu Xi, Lu Qing and others followed and dropped what they were doing.
"Don't you want to harm the foreigners? Go, go to the shopkeeper's theory, you have to open his inn. ”
"No, haunting. ”
Lu Liangsheng stopped the eight people from going out to find the shopkeeper, took out the law and poked them at each of them, then waved his hand, took the bookshelf off the old donkey's back, and walked straight to the backyard with it in his hand.
"If it's really sneaky, it's a lot of fun. ”
The eight people are a little confused, you look at me, I look at you, I can understand the words, but I don't understand why I click on them.
On the side, the Taoist also nodded a little on his forehead, took out a few yellow talismans from the cloth bag and hid them on his cuffs, turned around and saw that they were still there, jumped up the stone steps and said with a smile: "Ask for this way, and I will tell you what it means." ”
Beg?
Lu Panba's faces were solemn, and in the open clothes, his chest muscles bulged, and his fingers were clenched into fists, making a 'click' sound.
"Do it, I won't tell you about it!" Sun Yingxian got up and jumped directly to the eaves of the foyer in the front yard, and fell into it in a vertical jump, passing through the empty front hall, and along the corridor to the backyard.
Dead trees and old wells, the wooden barrel that Lu Liangsheng found tied a rope and threw it into the well, and the water that came up was full of moss, mixed with a fishy smell, and after pouring out a few buckets, it was considered to be passable.
Looking at the slag that slowly settles in the water, it is also possible to boil and wash.
'Hmm..... Less spells to clean up the scum in the water. ’
After a while, the guy who led the way before took the dishes, brought the other two little two in the store with dishes, chopsticks and rice buckets, looked up at the sky, the sun was shining, glanced at the companions behind him, heard the voices of people in the backyard, and smiled on his face as soon as he entered.
"Ladies and gentlemen, your meal is here....... This is the old vinegar fried sour and hot cabbage shreds, two steamed elbows in sauce, three of our secret roast goose, the guest officer can not underestimate the goose is a little small, there is another thing in it! ”
While carefully placing the round table in the middle of the room, he reported the name of the dish, so that eight big men came around, looked at the table full of dishes, and swallowed saliva.
There are not many dishes, but each one has made two or three extra servings, usually the family is not able to be so big fish and meat every day, not to mention half a month to hurry, see so many dishes, where can you still control yourself.
Lu Pan eight people, counting the Taoist people, added rice bowls, stood around the table and ate with a red face, turned around and called Lu Liangsheng, who was still wandering around the room, to come over to eat.
"Liangsheng, what are you doing, come over for dinner quickly. ”
In the next room, Lu Liangsheng, who had washed up, changed into a simple scholar's robe, tied a scarf and came out quite refreshingly, at the door of the room where he was eating, the guy who led the way before was standing there looking around the yard.
When he saw the scholar cross the threshold, he said: "Childe be careful" followed closely, and spoke in a low voice.
"This son, when it gets dark, rest early, if you hear anything, don't open the door, and don't go out if you see a fire in the yard. ”
Lu Liangsheng looked at the guy in front of him in surprise, and then nodded with a smile,
"Thank you for the reminder, but this place is really haunted?"
"Yes, I see that the child's face and good are not like evil people, so I told you, don't spread the word. ”
Saying this, the fellow looked up at his two companions, who were busy making the bed, and turned back and said:
"This house has actually changed hands many times, are scared away, and finally bought it cheaply by my shopkeeper, there were two guests who lived here before, and they were scared to come to the inn and knock on the door before dawn, and they didn't dare to go back to live, and they waited until dawn the next day to go back to pick up their luggage. ”
Lu Liangsheng frowned slightly: "Then why does your shopkeeper still let others live?"
"Hey. The guy sighed, and saw that his companion was about to come out, and his speech speed accelerated a lot: "The shopkeeper said that no one can die anyway, and if you don't make this money in vain, there is only one inn in this town, and those who stayed in the past can only come and live, okay, okay, what the little one said just now, the son should write it down, go to bed early after dark, and don't open the door in the middle of the night, no one can do it!"
The two companions of the man came out and confessed, and the three of them left in a hurry.
Lu Liangsheng raised his head and looked at Shichen, shaking his head, "Let's eat first!"
Soon, the sky began to darken.
