The moment the other party turned around, Chen Youniao saw a weird and deformed face. It was hard to describe. He seemed to be an old man. His body was completely dark, and he had a vague feeling, as if he was not an entity.

Amidst the shouts and questions, the "person" seemed to be frightened, and suddenly ran away with quick and violent movements. In the blink of an eye, he ran to the other side of the house and disappeared.

At this time, Chen Youniao was really startled. He had not yet completed his spiritual practice, and he had no strength. He had nothing in his hands. He suddenly encountered this strange thing. How could he dare to chase after him? What if the other party did not escape, but lurked in the darkness?

If you go there hastily, you will be trapped.

During my ten years as a Taoist boy, although I have never been in actual combat, I have heard about monsters and monsters, and know some things and taboos.

At this time, Uncle Wang came out with his clothes on. He was a light sleeper at his age, so he heard the noise and immediately got up to see what was going on.

"Master, what happened?"

Chen Youniao calmed down and started talking.

Uncle Wang is not an ordinary servant. He has lived in the towns below the Laoshan Taoist Temple for ten years. He has been immersed in what he sees and hears, and his views are naturally different. After hearing this, he was shocked. He knew that there was no peace in the world. On his way home, he met the "River God" on the Jing River.

"Come on, he has seen the scene. But he never expected that something strange would happen in the county town and in the house where he lives:

"Master, you, do you think the other person is a human being? Or is it something else?"

Chen Youniao shook his head: "I couldn't tell clearly for a while, but it's very weird anyway."

Wang Bo said: "This is inside the city. There is a government office and an army guarding it. Why did a monster appear?"

Chen Youniao said in a deep voice: "The county is so big that troubles are not surprising. It is remote and desolate, and there is a mixture of fish and dragons."

Uncle Wang asked: "When I came back earlier, I saw that madman worshiping here and talking about ghosts and gods. Could it be that this is a haunted house and is haunted?"

Chen Youniao chuckled: "The so-called ghosts are just evil spirits, and there is no underworld."

Uncle Wang said: "What about just now?"

"It may be a human being, or it may be an evil spirit, but if it flees after hearing the sound, it is because it is afraid of people. If it was really vicious, it would have started to attack long ago."

Chen Youniao's words are eloquent.

When Uncle Wang thought about it, it was indeed true. If the opponent was powerful, he would not escape. Instead, he and the young master would escape.

Chen Youniao said: "Uncle Wang, I'm hungry."

Uncle Wang was startled: "Master, you have eaten a lot for dinner."

"Haha, after practicing the technique for a while, it's all gone."

Uncle Wang didn't think too much, took the money and went out with Chen Youniao. He couldn't go to the restaurant this time, so he found a noodle stall on the street. It was economical and economical to eat in a place like this.

Eating noodles alone was not enough, so Chen Youniao asked the store to cut up two kilograms of pig head meat. Since he had meat to eat, he didn't panic.

Uncle Wang looked at Chen Youniao and was dumbfounded. He quickly made a calculation in his mind: According to the way the young master eats, the money he originally thought he could cover for a year might only be enough for half a year's expenses.

After eating and drinking, go back to the house.

That night, both Chen Youniao and Uncle Wang had a restless sleep. Fortunately, nothing happened again and they waited until dawn to relax.

Uncle Wang then went out to buy things, buying some daily necessities, necessities, rice noodles and other ingredients. Chen Youniao said that he would have supper in the future and it was impossible to go out every night. It would be convenient and save money to have it at home.

Really need to save money.

Chen Youniao stayed in the house and studied "The Literary Mind and the Carving of Dragons". Literary spirit is of great use, the more the better, so you should accumulate it every day.

This learning process involves not only meditating, but also writing and reading aloud, which is similar to a normal reading state.

Only when you are attentive can you gain spiritual understanding and achieve literary spirit.

As a result, reading, reading and writing consume a lot of pen, ink and paper, which is another huge expense.

In this world, paper books are almost among the luxury goods. Generally, poor people cannot afford them. Therefore, in the Dayin Dynasty, most of the people were illiterate. Children of poor families who wanted to study but could not afford pens and ink often only had to buy pens and ink.

Use tree branches as pens to write on the sand for practice.

Uncle Wang came back with a lot of things, but he had a look of panic on his face.

Chen Youniao asked: "What's wrong?"

Uncle Wang put down his things and wiped his sweat: "Master, it's bad, there is really something wrong with this house. It is a haunted house."

Chen Youniao was startled: "How do you know?"

Uncle Wang smiled bitterly and said, "I came back from shopping and met some people nearby. I asked them and they all said this."

Chen Youniao frowned: "You said someone died here?"

"That's not true. It's just that there were ghosts causing trouble and it was very noisy. In the past, the family members of the clan couldn't live in it anymore and ran away. The house is remote and a haunted house, so it has always been vacant."

Uncle Wang said.

Chen Youniao heard this: "That's it?"

"Not only that, because the house was vacant and no one was taking care of it, a gangster fell in love with it and wanted to sneak in and steal something. But something happened. He didn't know what he encountered. He was so frightened that he ran away. After he got out, he became...

Crazy, crazy, crazy. Well, it’s the lunatic who came here last night to burn incense and worship. He used to be a well-known gangster in the neighborhood, and he was very courageous. Now he has become evil and lost his mind, and he has become like this."

Chen Youniao listened and nodded. If you put it this way, the weirdo you met last night was most likely evil.

As for the clan allocating this house to their own family, it was probably a perfunctory way of giving it away.

Uncle Wang added: "I heard that this matter was reported to the officials before, and people came from the Yamen, but they couldn't find out the reason, so they left it alone."

Similar evil things are often unpredictable and difficult to solve, and require the Taoist court to send people. However, the matters in this house are limited to this place, and no lives have been lost, so naturally they will not alarm the higher ups.

"Master, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let's go and find another place to live."

Uncle Wang said worriedly.

Chen Youniao asked: "It costs money to change land and rent a house, and it is not a long-term solution."

"But here?"

"It doesn't matter. Although I haven't officially become a Taoist priest, I have learned some skills after being a Taoist priest for ten years, so I can cope with it."

Hearing this, Uncle Wang was slightly relieved. If the young master can solve it, that would be the best. Although it is a little remote, the place is big enough and it is really a good residence. Haidai County is prosperous and the housing prices are not cheap. It is in a good location.

Every inch of land costs money, and the monthly rent for even a slightly inferior house is several taels. With their current situation, they can afford to live there, but life is difficult.

"Uncle Wang, let's make breakfast. I'm hungry."

"Uh, okay."

Uncle Wang hurriedly went to work, muttering to himself: The young master can really eat now.

However, being able to eat is a good thing. The more you eat, the more powerful you are. According to some legends about gods, people with great supernatural powers can eat a whole cow and several sheep in one meal.

After breakfast, Uncle Wang started to clean up the yard with a hoe in hand to see if he could open up some space to grow vegetables. In that case, there would be no need to buy anything. He had to buy everything from firewood, rice, oil, salt, vegetables, meat and pasta, and the total amount was by no means a small amount.

"Oh, Master, Master is not good!"
