In the blink of an eye, the hairs on my body stood up.

Could it be the wind? There is no wind here!

The "crunching" sound is still ringing.

The door opens...

A dark figure appeared, very short, stooped, and hunched over the threshold, standing under the lantern.

My little heart was twitching tightly.

It’s so permeable!

If you look closely, you will see an old woman with wrinkles on her face. She is short, only about 1.5 meters tall, and is wearing an old-fashioned coat with folded breasts.

The ancient house, the red painted door, two dim red lanterns, and the old woman standing at the door came into view.

Xu Yanxin grabbed me and asked with a trembling voice.

"Song...Song Daudao, is this...a human or a ghost?"

"If you can see it, of course it's a human being."

The Little Heavenly Master stood on my right and replied quietly.

"That's right."

I also gave Xu Yanxin a positive answer, and I felt that his hands stopped shaking immediately.

"Who is Master Cocoa?" The old woman's voice was hoarse.

Is she an entrusted client?

"I am, who are you?"

"Hello Master Keke, I am the owner of this house. Taoist Master Qijue told me that you may come over tonight.

I heard the sound of parking outside, so I came out to take a look. Master was really waiting for me, let’s talk inside."

The old woman turned sideways and invited us in.

The old lady is really energetic after not resting so late.

I looked at the dark courtyard inside and hesitated.

I am a Lingpo, and I took on this task again. In the end, I still suppressed the fear in my heart.

He led Xu Yanxin with his left hand and Little Heavenly Master with his right hand and walked inside.

The old lady slowly closed the door after we came in.

Suddenly the little bit of light was blocked outside the door, and it was dark in front of me.

"Ahem..." The old woman hunched over, coughed and walked to the front to lead the way.

This walking... is so slow!

"Oh! I'm old and my body is no longer flexible. Walk slower. Don't be anxious."

The little Celestial Master was so smart that he took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight mode to illuminate it. Only then did I remember why he was so stupid! It’s not like I don’t have a mobile phone.

Under the bright light of the mobile phone, I walked around a screen wall and a row of rooms in front came into view.

There was a light on in one of the rooms, but it didn't feel very bright. The ground and the flower garden in front of the house could be vaguely seen.

The ground is an old stone road, which has a sense of age. The doors and windows of the house feel like the style of the Republic of China period, which is vicissitudes and heavy.

"Old lady, when was your house built?"

I asked the old lady as I walked.

"Ahem...it must have been more than a hundred years ago, and it has been renovated several times."

It's really an ancient house.

Entering the room, there is a plaque on the front wall, which reads: Xinglin Warm Spring.

It seems that the owner of the old house used to be a doctor. Otherwise, why would there be such an inscription? He must be a well-known person with a certain reputation.

Below is a carved wooden table and two carved wooden chairs, one on the left and one on the right. I don’t know the specific wood.

There are also several carved wooden tables and chairs placed on the left and right sides of the house.

The whole building is antique, with a breath of the past.

There is no main light in the house, just a floor lamp placed in the corner. No wonder the room is not bright either.

The old woman sat down on the chair on the left side of the front and coughed several times in succession.

"Sit down, cough..."

The three of us sat down at the bottom, and I sat in the first seat on the left, very close to the old woman.

"I originally thought that Master Coco would not come again tonight, but I didn't expect that you keep your word."

"Mother-in-law, you're welcome. Taoist Master Qi Jue has told me the specific situation today. Are you the only one who lives in this house?"

"The house is too old, ahem... just like a person getting old, he is not welcomed by others. The children are not willing to live here, and they all moved out after they got married.

I haven't been in good health these days, and I'm going to the hospital tomorrow to recover for a few days. The master is here, and he just gave you the key, and he took the trouble."

"Now that I have accepted the mission, don't worry. I will make sure that your stay will be bright and clear when you come back, without any gloomy atmosphere.

I guess there's no dirt here today, so just to be on the safe side, I'll take another look, please wait a moment."

I was going to use a compass to detect ghosts, but the old woman was sitting in the main room. In order not to disturb her, I got up and walked outside the door.

It was cool in the yard. After looking around, I took out the compass from my school bag.

With a "buzz" sound, the compass flew out, circled around me, and stopped in front of me, shining with yellow light.

I waited for a while and saw that there was no movement on the compass and no red mark.

It seems that the evil ghost will not come tonight. Since the evil ghost is not here, why is the temperature still so low?

Walk back to the main room.

"Mother-in-law, you can rest peacefully tonight and go to recuperate tomorrow. I will take care of things here."

After that, my mother-in-law handed me the key to their house, and after exchanging a few words, we said goodbye and left.

After coming out, sit in the car.

"Sister Lingpo, why do I feel weird when I enter their house? I can't tell what's wrong?"

What the Little Heavenly Master said was exactly what I thought, and I didn’t know what went wrong.

"Little Celestial Master, you are right. Since the evil ghost is not here, the old lady's house shouldn't still be so sinister and chilling.

Let’s come over early tomorrow night and check it out carefully.”

"Okay, we can also make some arrangements in advance. I can set up a large formation. If it is a thousand-year-old ghost, we will be prepared."

Little Heavenly Master’s idea is very satisfying to me. It’s a good idea to prepare in advance just in case.

I touched the little Tianshi's head in approval and looked at him with a smile.

"Little Heavenly Master, I like you more and more."

I felt the little Heavenly Master tremble, and he raised his eyebrows.

"Sister, you are not allowed to tease the little Celestial Master from a good family,"

"Tch, teasing? This is the most beautiful little spirit lady who looks up to you. Don't be ignorant."

I glared at him and ignored him. Xu Yanxin drove the car in front and laughed "hehe" twice.

After a while, Xu Yanxin said something angrily.

"Thunder God beats tofu - every thing falls."

Little Heavenly Master and I looked at each other, but neither of us spoke.

I don’t know who has surrendered to me and the Little Heavenly Master now. In short, the Little Heavenly Master is smart and very pleasing to me.

…

The next morning.

I took out my mobile phone and contacted Director Wang of the school via WeChat.

[Hello, Director Wang, the school matter has been completely resolved, please pay the balance.]

Originally, I was waiting for the "ding..." from WeChat to check out the surprise.

Unexpectedly, WeChat rang.

But it was a WeChat message sent by Director Wang.
Chapter completed!
