Chapter 525 Past Events in Xiangjiang (6)
“This is it.” Afa took them both to a building and said, “I have contacted the landlord here for you. He will be here later. I will come here soon."
"Happiness Building..." Taoist priest Lingkong took out his compass and looked around, and said, "Really, the aura here is really extraordinary. The yin energy is much heavier than other places. , the Feng Shui pattern is also top-notch, surrounded by the surrounding houses, the Yang Qi has been dispersed."
Taoist Jingde patted him on the shoulder and said: "Master Qian, you will know if you look up. There’s no need to bring out a compass.”
Taoist Priest Lingkong looked up and immediately noticed the difference in this building. With the naked eye, he could see that it was incompatible with other surrounding buildings. The surrounding buildings seemed to be very popular, but this place was different. It seemed to be isolated and gloomy. Even pedestrians on the roadside avoided this place and walked around it.
Qian Xiaoyi and Lingkong Lao Dao stood behind them. Qian Xiaoyi commented: "This kind of place was not planned well when it was built. The Feng Shui pattern is not normal. It is uncomfortable both to look at and to live in. Ordinary people live here." It’s strange that it doesn’t feel bad, no wonder it’s haunted.”
“Well, this is the most famous haunted building in Kowloon.” Fa introduced: "Especially the 18th floor. There are no people living on the whole floor. Most of them are gone. No one dares to rent. Only short-lived ghosts who don't want to live dare to rent there, but they can't live there." He ran away soon. But for this reason, the rent here is very low."
"..." The two Taoist priests looked at each other in silence.
Although the price is indeed much lower than houses of the same level, it is still more expensive than the subdivided houses of a few square meters they looked at before. At this time, the average salary in the mainland is only a few hundred per month. I can't afford it, I really can't afford it.
“Come on, come on, you want to rent a house, right?” A fat man wearing thick glasses with bottle bottoms came out of the building. There was a layer of greasy sweat on his head and a hanging hanging around his waist. Holding a bunch of keys, the fat man walked with a clang. After seeing the three of them, the fat man walked over very enthusiastically.
The Cantonese he spoke was not understood by the two Taoist priests. After Afa stepped forward to negotiate with him, the fat man said enthusiastically in broken Mandarin: "The two masters came just in time. You have all seen them around here. In a prime location, there is no house near here with a lower price than mine. Let me tell you, the houses here are in short supply..."
Afa interrupted him , mockingly said: "Damn it, Fatty, you think we are stupid. Your house is haunted and no one dares to live in it. Where is the shortage?"
The fat man with glasses said angrily: "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! Blind people, don't talk nonsense. Is there anything haunted? Be careful, I will sue you for slander! Don't listen to him, my house is very serious. What kind of house do you want? , even if it’s a thousand-foot mansion, I guarantee you’ll be satisfied.” “Who are you calling me blind?” He got angry and pushed the fat man.
The fat man immediately gave up. He hid behind the two Taoist priests and shouted with a fierce expression: "Don't do anything, I'm calling the security guard."
"Okay, okay." Taoist Jingde quickly stopped their nonsense and said: "Boss, we have heard about your building. It's not that we don't know anything, so do we want to rent here? Let us go up and take a look first. If nothing happens, of course we will be happy to Rent a room, don't you think?"
"Yes, yes, that's right, I...I'll take you up to take a look." The fat man took a deep breath, as if he was mentally preparing. , led the three people into the building. There was an old security guard at the door who was reading a newspaper and didn't even look at their entry and exit.
This building looks old. The elevators are all old-fashioned models. There is no iron door outside, only an iron fence. The elevator rose slowly with noise, and did not stop until it reached the 18th floor. As soon as it stopped, a cold wind blew from the corridor, as if the air conditioner was turned on.
The iron fence opened with a snap, startling the fat landlord. He smiled awkwardly at the others, and then said: "This is it, I will take you in. …”
They walked out of the elevator and came to the corridor. The lighting here was very poor. Even turning on the lights in broad daylight could not make the place brighter. There was an incense burner in the corridor, and there was already a lot of burned stubble in it.
"Oops, I forgot to bring it..." The fat man saw the incense burner, touched his body, and his expression changed. Just as he was about to say something, he saw three incense sticks being handed over from his side.
Taoist priest Lingkong said thoughtfully: "I have it here."
"...Thank you." The fat man's expression became even more awkward. He took the incense stick and used it next to the incense burner. The match was lit, and then he bowed respectfully to the incense burner, muttering "Don't blame me if it's strange" and other words.
After putting in the incense, Afa said angrily: "A very serious house, isn't it?"
The fat landlord looked a little confused. He pretended not to hear anything and greeted the two Taoist priests enthusiastically: "Two masters, please come here. The rooms here are all empty. You can see any one you want. Inside The furniture is fully furnished and you can move in directly, which is very convenient..."
He took the three of them to look at the house. Every time he entered, he did not open the door with the key first, but opened the door with the key first. He knocked on the door three times and said, "Excuse me, I'm bringing someone to see the room." Then he took them in to see the room.
Qian Xiaoyi curled his lips from behind and complained: "It would be strange if the clients are not frightened if we show people the house like this. No wonder we can't rent it out."
Ling Kong Lao Dao Hehe Yixiao: "They all believe this here. If he doesn't do this, he won't feel at ease."
After looking at all the rooms, the fat man breathed a sigh of relief. The good brothers were very cooperative today and nothing happened. Surprised, he forced a smile and asked: "I wonder if the two masters are satisfied? You have also seen that this floor does have some... Feng shui is not good, but I promise, it is still very comfortable to live in. It's comfortable. Generally, as long as you don't go out at night, you won't encounter anything weird, so you see..."
"The house is indeed nice." Taoist Jingde looked very satisfied, which made the fat man a little happy. But the next second, Taoist Jingde turned his head and asked in a doubtful tone: "But is there another room here that you haven't brought with you?" Let’s go and see?”
Everyone followed his gaze and saw a room at the end of the corridor, a door covered with charms and chained. Room.
