"Can you give me a way out? So much? It's already doubled."
"It's not much. It's very reasonable. If you think it's expensive, move away. No one forced you to stay with me.”
" Hehe, how can you say that…" The young man heard the tone of the person and felt helpless.
"Hurry up, or get lost immediately.”The fat woman said with disgust. She was really afraid that this sick ghost would die in her house.
Compared to all the people in society, Wenshan, who worked hard for a living, was ordinary and useless.
He was only 1.71 meters tall. Although he had a handsome face, a straight nose, and dark eyebrows, it was also because of his eyes that he looked handsome. Unfortunately, he did not know how to dress up. He wore cheap and old-fashioned clothes, so he looked very ordinary no matter how one looked at him.
He graduated from a third-rate university in the south. After graduation, he had been working in a few large and small enterprises for four years. He was not born into a wealthy family, and he did not dare to report his worries to his parents. Every time he contacted his parents on the phone, he only reported the good news but not the bad news...
In a big city, a salary of 5,000 yuan was the most basic, but the standard of consumption was so high. He had to give his parents 20,000 yuan for living expenses when he returned home for the holidays at the end of the year. Although they also had jobs, they were nearing middle age and were about to retire. They needed to save for their old age.
He had a younger brother who was three years younger than him. His educational background was not as high as his, and he was even worse off. Every time he thought about his family situation, he felt that he was under great pressure and had heavy responsibilities, so he had yet to date.
In addition, his family was poor when he was born, and he was not fed well. As a result, he suffered from the root of the disease, and his foundation was damaged. His Qi and blood were insufficient, and he could not replenish it with exercise or medicine. He could only take medicine to maintain his health. Every month, he had to give one-fifth of his salary to the hospital. Because she had been buying medicine from the hospital for a long time, she had become a medicine jar.
He usually did not drink or smoke, and he basically did not have any outdoor activities. He was a typical otaku…
As his body's foundation was damaged, he felt worse and worse over the years. His complexion was pale and ugly, and his beautiful eyes, which were originally bright, had lost their color. She was always listless and sleepy every day. Her mood was getting more and more depressed, and sometimes she would lose her temper easily.
Now, the old demon landlady was going to raise the rent and collect health and safety fees again. Wenshan had lived with her for more than three years, and this was the first time they had a dispute. She did not know how he had offended her, but it was obvious that he wanted to drive him away maliciously.
The landlord was a fat woman in her forties. She was dressed fashionably, but her face was round and her body was as fat as a ball. She looked at Wenshan as if she was looking at a jinx. Was she afraid that Wenshan would die of illness in her house?
It seemed like she had to find a place to move. With such a huge increase in rent, she could rent a bigger house elsewhere. There was no need to squeeze into her small room. She could move out during the weekend…
After lunch, he went to the community notice board to look for a house and found a new post: Nanhai City, Dong 'an Village, No. 14…Contact: 139XXXXXXXX has a cheap house for rent.
The weather was gloomy now, and it seemed like it was going to rain soon.
Well, let's quickly call and ask!
Wenshan took out his cell phone and made a call…It didn't take long for the call to get through.
"Hello!"
"Are you renting a house?" The hoarse voice of an old man slowly came from the other end of the phone. It was very deep.
" Yes…" Wenshan was puzzled. He hadn't said anything yet. How did he know? Could it be that this phone was only used to rent a house?
"Come and see the house directly!"
Dong 'an Village was very old in Nanhai City. To preserve some of the ancient culture, the city administration only repaired and did not rebuild places like Dong' an Village. There were many ancient ceramic tiles and stone houses, and new industries and businesses were developed outside the village. Modern buildings were also built outside the village.
"It should be here. What an old house. It must be more than a hundred years old.”After Wenshan found the address, he realized that the house was very old. It was actually a courtyard house and had a two-story attic. It looked like a building from the early Republic of China.
"Pa, pa, pa…Is anyone home?”Wenshan grabbed the iron tab on the thick wooden door and knocked.
"Sigh!" Someone responded.
After waiting for two minutes, the door opened. An old man who looked to be almost eighty years old was hunched over. His eyelids were drooping, and his eyes were not very well seen. He had short white hair and was wearing a long protein robe. He raised his head slightly, and his face was wrinkled. One could not tell whether he was good or bad. He was neither happy nor sad, and there was no unusual expression on his face. He looked like an ordinary old man from the outside.
"Are you renting a house?" An old and deep voice came from the old man.
"..." Wenshan was shocked and straightened his body slightly." Hello, my name is Wenshan. I saw a rental apartment in the community..."
"Are you renting a house?" The old and deep voice sounded again. It was straightforward, as if he did not want to waste any expression.
"Uh…yes." Wenshan felt that something was wrong.
"Then come in and take a look." The old man stepped aside.
Wenshan strode into the house. On the right side of the house was a small kitchen with some old and rotten wood. On the left was the dining room. There was a set of tables and chairs that were not very old. It was a very large courtyard, nearly 100 square meters, and the distance between the doors was about 8 meters. There were potted plants under the courtyard wall, and there was even a tropical-growing evening primrose that had the effect of repelling mosquitoes. There were also leafy aloes, spider plants, mint grass…
He entered the house and saw that the living room was very big…Such an old house had been renovated. The floor was tiled with new tiles, and the light blue wall paint was very new. It was a standard living room. The main hall and the left and right mother and son rooms, the main hall has a 1 meter wide wooden ladder to the second floor. Fortunately, the furniture in the room was made of new wood. There were no incense burner, god altar, old pictures of gods, or else it would not be perfect. Those things always felt unlucky when placed in a rented house.
"Old sir, how do I rent this place? I want to rent the right wing…"
"It's rented."
"Ah, sorry to disturb you.”Relying on…rent? How could Wenshan afford to rent such a big new house?
"It's very cheap."
"How cheap is it?" No matter how cheap it was, they couldn't afford to rent it. This was an entire courtyard. What a joke.
"3000 a year."
"3000 a year?" Wenshan was very surprised. The price was too cheap.
The old landlord left right after he signed the contract, and he only paid half of the rent. Even Wenshan himself felt that it was inconceivable and even very strange…After that, Wenshan casually cleaned up and moved in.
The old man's only requirement for such a cheap rent was not to change the layout of the house at will, not to place things randomly, and not to repair them randomly. It was equivalent to hiring him to be a house manager.
In the evening, in a villa not far from Dong 'an Village, an old man muttered to himself,""This is the last one.”After saying that, a strange smile appeared on his face. If Wenshan saw him, he would definitely recognize the old man. He was the new landlord.
At night, he washed up and prepared to rest. It was dark outside, and he lay on the bed and prepared to sleep.
However, Wenshan always felt that something was amiss. Although he had a 5W energy-saving lamp on, he was afraid of the dark since he was young.
He thought to himself, This isn't a ghost house, right? The more he thought about it, the colder his heart felt, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
Wenshan took out his mobile phone and scrolled through WeChat. He posted some of his feelings on his Moments and then searched for his good friend, Hua Zai, to chat with. Unfortunately, he did not get a reply to the message he sent. It was good to divert his attention like this, and he gradually fell asleep…
After sleeping for an unknown period of time, lightning suddenly flashed and thunder rumbled outside like a Gatling gun firing.
Wenshan woke up with a start. He opened his eyes and saw that the nest was bright, but the air was filled with a blue cloud, which was very strange. Some of the old furnishings and wall hanging in the room were lit up with fluorescent lights. The almost invisible light connected them, making it difficult to understand…
He was extremely panicked. At the same time, he felt that his hands and feet were numb and unable to move. Otherwise, he would have run out of the old residence long ago.
Suddenly, a flash of light tore through the air. Wenshan's body was in pain, and he fainted before he could think. There was also the sound of thunder behind his ears...
In the Jingchu Mountains in the south, the night sky was filled with thunderstorms…
"Mother, can I really lead Baiqiao Stronghold?”A figure with a good figure and a peerless aura stood in front of the window and muttered to herself. The light of the oil lamp on the table swayed along with it.
"Miss, go and rest quickly. Take care of your body. In seven days, you will be promoted to the position of chief.”The woman in guard attire said to the person in front of the window. She was worried in her heart. Elder Qiao had passed away, so the young miss should be very sad.
"You go down first, I'll rest…Oh right, did the Han man we found beside the Holy Tree wake up?”The beautiful woman asked.
"He hasn't woken up yet. Miss, you're the person with the highest medical skills in our Baiqiao Village. Can't you find out what illness he has?”Miss was one of the people with the highest medical skills in Baiqiao Village, and she had even passed the assessment of the elders of the Baiqiao Clan.
Therefore, the previous chieftain passed the throne to her when she was old. It was also because she was the daughter of the chieftain and the princess of Baiqiao Stronghold, Shi Huaichan.
"That Han man's qi and blood are weak. Even if he's not sick, he's poisoned. However, there's an inexplicable electric current in his body.”Shi Huaichan was also very surprised. How could an ordinary person carry such a strong electric current?
"Yes, I feel numb whenever I touch that person. How could a good person be charged? Miss, why did you bring that person back? Is it because he's very handsome?" The female guard asked playfully.
"Nonsense! Shi Fang, are you in love with him? He's a Han Chinese!”The female guard was called Shi Fang. She was an orphan adopted by Shi Huaichan's father, Elder Qiao, and was used to accompany his daughter. She grew up with Shi Huaichan and was three years younger than her. They were like sisters.
"I'm not talking to you. I'm going to rest." Thinking of that handsome man who was as exquisite as jade, Shi Fang blushed and left.
Shi Huaichan shook her head and smiled. She was peerless and beautiful. She strolled out of the door and passed the corridor to another house. She looked in through the window and saw a handsome person lying on the bed. She was very curious. Who was he?
