In fact, Pu Zixuan went to the ghost house for the first time and forced Zhu Yuanliang to go there, just to boost courage. Now that he has known the existence of the little boy, he is fearless in his heart as a normal person. So the next day, Pu Zixuan came to No. 14, Li'an Road alone. Sure enough, he met the little boy in the last room on the second floor. After the greetings, Pu Zixuan took out the chicken feather shuttlecock and shook it in front of him.

The little boy looked happy: "Brother, are you here to play with me?"

Pu Zixuan nodded: "Yes, my name is Pu Zixuan."

Pu Zixuan asked him to go to the street with him, but the little boy refused to do so. Seeing that the little boy lighted the oil lamp in the living room on the second floor, Pu Zixuan had to absent-mindedly accompany him to kick the shuttlecock under the dim light.

The little boy was very dedicated to playing, agile and quick in his movements, as if he had been waiting for a playmate for a long time. After less than half an hour of kicking, Pu Zixuan gradually felt bored and sat on the ground, pretending to be exhausted.

The two sat opposite each other, and the little boy said, "Do you know? I haven't been so happy for many years. No one dares to come to my house. I have no friends, and I have been living here alone."

"Why don't you have friends?"

"Because I'm a monster."

Pu Zixuan was stunned, looked at the flesh-and-blooded cute boy in front of him, laughed and asked, "Where are the monsters you are?"

"Brother, don't believe it. I will tell you what happened here and you will understand."

This was exactly what Pu Zixuan thought, and he said, "Okay, my brother is here today to hear you tell the secret of this ghost house."

The little boy said: "More than ten years ago, a couple lived in this house. The woman is a human, while the man is a monster. The woman's parents died early, and the house was inherited by the woman. Since they fell in love, they have lived happily here."

Pu Zixuan nodded: "Well, what about later?"

"But the good times didn't last long. One day when the man came home, he saw the woman lying on the ground. She was seriously ill. Although she saved her life, she has been bedridden since then. In order to treat the woman, the two spent all their savings. The man was a monster and had no household registration. In order to make money, he could only do all kinds of illegal work outside. The woman saw it and felt pain in her heart. Once, she touched the man's face and said, "I don't want to see you working so hard." So one day, the man went home and entered the room but didn't see the woman. He searched everywhere but failed, so he looked out the window and saw that the woman had jumped downstairs to commit suicide. The man rushed downstairs frantically, hugging the woman and crying bitterly."

Pu Zixuan nodded: "Okay, it's quite sad, then?"

"Men are heartbroken and release their demonic power to keep the woman's soul. The human form formed by the soul is no longer sick and they have a short and happy life. However, the magic of keeping the soul will continue to consume a lot of demonic power of monsters, and the price is: the man's body will become weaker and weaker, and the memory will continue to disappear. So the woman said to him one day: 'People always die. Forcing my soul to leave is just to increase our pain. I have never thought of falling in love with a monster in my life, but I have never regretted it. It's great to have you."

Pu Zixuan stopped talking and waited for the little boy to continue to tell the story.

"The man was unwilling to give up, so he released all the demonic power and enveloped this house, hoping to keep the woman's soul forever. From then on, he became a madman who lost all his memories. Although the woman was gone in the end, this house also had the ability to keep the soul from then on. Some people with terminal illnesses came here to commit suicide, and could obtain a healthy body for seven days to fulfill their last wish in the world. I think the woman who committed suicide eight days ago has now been reincarnated..."

Pu Zixuan immediately thought of Zhao Chengyi. If the little boy said all this was the truth, then the dead Zhao Chengyi's soul appeared in the room before his death, which would have become a reasonable explanation. But Pu Zixuan did not believe in evil and asked, "Then I ask you, how did you know all this?"

The little boy said, "Because, I am their son. My father is the crazy beggar downstairs. I told him the truth, but he soon forgot about it. I cried, begged him, and asked him to remember everything, but after several times I returned without success, I no longer planned to say anything to him."

Pu Zixuan asked, "Okay, then back to the initial question, you said you are all monsters, so why can't you see at all? Aren't you all living people?"

"When monsters have sex with humans, they will become human-shaped half-demons, and the children they give birth to are also half-demons."

The little boy answered very naturally and could not find any flaws in his words. Pu Zixuan asked: "The last question is, we don't know each other, why do you tell me these again?"

The little boy sneered and replied: "Because, I have a sense of emotion, my brother will always be entangled with monsters in his life."

The little boy smiled evilly and was exactly the same as the strange woman. Pu Zixuan suddenly felt the amber on his chest heat up rapidly, as if sensing something. Pu Zixuan was stunned, covered his chest, and hurriedly said, "I...I'm leaving." Then he quickly walked out of the haunted house.

Downstairs, the beggar kept repeating: "Everything has cause and effect, and everything has cause and effect!"

When he found Zhu Yuanliang, a patrolling man, on the street, Pu Zixuan felt cold sweat all over his body. The authorities were confused, and his mind was in a mess and he had to find someone to help him sort out his ideas.

After listening to the story, Zhu Yuanliang frowned and said, "A half-human and half-demon, a lovely monster who has lost his memory? So familiar... Ah, I remembered it! Have you ever read "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio"? In the chapter of "Abao", there is a man named Sun Zichu..."

"You mean, are they really monsters?"

Zhu Yuanliang left the center of the vortex, and seemed much more rational than Pu Zixuan. He comforted him: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, just like you said, don't be blinded by the eyes, calm down, think about it carefully, will there be any more reasonable explanation?"

"Yes, yes." Pu Zixuan tried to calm himself down and gave an explanation, "Maybe, it was the old and the young who came here to escape the war. Taking advantage of the death of the owner of the house and trying to occupy other people's house, he pretended to be crazy and foolish, pretended to be a ghost, and deliberately let out the wind, saying that this was a ghost house, so others would not dare to make up the house."

Zhu Yuanliang's eyes lit up: "Yes, the truth may be that simple. I believe there are monsters in this world, but that old and young are not, haha."

Pu Zixuan asked again: "So what explanation does the woman in Zhao Chengyi's room give?"

Zhu Yuanliang thought for a while and said, "Well, this... we just took a look from afar. As you said, maybe it was sisters who came to sort out the relics... It's a pity that those who committed suicide believed their plans."

Zhu Yuanliang's words made people feel much more at ease.

"I just said that there are no monsters in this world." Pu Zixuan no longer interferes with the affairs of the ghost house, and has lived a normal life of being drunk and dreaming.

However, he just forced himself not to think about it. The woman smiled at his evil charm and Amber's inexplicable fever. Since then, she has not obtained a reasonable explanation and has been buried deep in Pu Zixuan's heart.
