218. The night breaks through the empty door, and comes and goes without being indecent.
"Rat" said a little surprised: "Shrimp Poached Eggs? Go to the hotel at the entrance of that alley? The Melander's house is right there, do you still want to go and have a look?"
Cheng Tianle: "I didn't have enough magic power at the time, and I didn't have a thorough understanding of the way of refining and controlling weapons. The inspiration of sensing the physical nature in the environment was still short of ignition. Now that my skills have improved, I should go and observe what kind of Feng Shui treasure land there. Anyway, Melander is still staying in the villa, so I can take the opportunity to sneak over and see his house."
He came to the base of the pyramid scheme gang again, and Cheng Tianle had dinner in the small restaurant at the entrance of the alley. The boss actually remembered him and came over and said hello, "Young man, are you here again?"
Cheng Tianle replied with a smile: "Yes, I ate shrimp poached eggs at your house last time, and it was so good! Unfortunately, I never saw them elsewhere, so I came here as soon as I wanted to eat them." The boss was very happy and even gave him a shrimp poached egg.
It was the end of November, and it was dark after dinner. Cheng Tianle passed through this ancient alley in the night and walked towards Meland's house, silently touching all things in the soul viewing realm. Meland said it was right. Even if he had not learned all kinds of Feng Shui, with his keen perception, he could know what kind of environment is suitable for what kind of things.
Occasionally, the pedestrians who passed by did not notice that Cheng Tianle walked slowly along the alley, but actually closed his eyes. When he came outside the gate of the house, Cheng Tianle sensed a trace of evil spirit described by Meland, which made people feel inexplicably frightened, but his conviction would not be disturbed too much.
This evil spirit may be done by someone on purpose, or it may be the long-standing legend of the haunted house, which makes people who see it feel unconsciously afraid, reflecting the breath left behind. Cheng Tianle closed his eyes and turned into the alley outside the courtyard wall. This is the through-the-shelf path between the houses. The river leading to the back of the houses. Perhaps because of the haunted legend, the houses next to them do not open to this side.
Cheng Tianle could sense the breath of the house on the inner side of the wall. There was no so-called evil spirit, but it made people feel very light and comfortable. At this time, "Rat" whispered: "No one is there anyway. Go in and take a look! Melander is still staying in the villa, so there will be no haunted here."
Cheng Tianle hesitated and said, "Isn't it suitable? Anyway, we all know what it looks like, and we have seen it in the scroll long ago."
"Mouse": "I can't understand the true meaning in the scroll. Since I'm here, why bother passing by the door and not entering?"
Cheng Tianle was also moved. Seeing that there was no one around, he suddenly rubbed his body and jumped up on the spot, kicked the exterior wall of the house next to him, and then kicked the high wall of the house. The person had already floated over the wall and fell into the yard, and his movements were clean and neat. After entering the yard, he finally opened his eyes and sighed: "What a good place. It's only a wall outside, it's a paradise!"
At the entrance to the front yard is a rockery screen. The rockery is as high as the courtyard wall and cannot be seen outside, but Cheng Tianle stood in the courtyard and sensed with his soul. However, a mountain and river breath came to his face, with a shocking impact, as if he was really in the famous mountains and rivers. The "mouse" also sensed and said in surprise: "This rockery is very particular, no less than the famous peaks in the gardens we have visited."
Cheng Tianle sighed: "I am a fine art student. Do you know the true artistic conception of Chinese landscape painting? If you want to buy a painting to collect, what kind of work would you choose?"
"Rat" replied: "Of course it's affordable!"
Cheng Tianle shook his head and said, "Many painters' works during their lifetime are not expensive, but why do you buy them and collect them? They will definitely resonate with the soul. When you look at them with concentration, it is like truly entering the mountains and rivers, carrying the breath of mountains and rivers. Otherwise, no matter how well you look at them, it is just a trace of ink on rice paper, and what you play with is just a skill. This is the artistic conception with hills and valleys in your heart. It is the same as looking at a garden."
"Rat" smiled and said, "When you see someone a rockery, you feel so much emotion. It seems to be very knowledgeable."
Cheng Tianle: "Everything is knowledge, we are all learning... Let me tell you a little more. If the paintings you collect cannot resonate with you, it may be difficult to appreciate in your hands. It sounds a bit mysterious, right?"
"Mouse": "We are not here to talk about landscape painting today, right? Come in and take a look."
Cheng Tianle: "I didn't even understand the rockery in Yingmen. Why are you in a hurry to go in? Look at this front yard, it's really a good place to nourish your breath. Come for a walk every morning, it's like walking into the mountains and rivers."
The front yard is surrounded by the rockery, with four tall ancient trees, and the lush canopy covers the entire courtyard in a sparse and dense manner. Bypassing the rockery, there are two lush osmanthus trees outside the main hall. The season for osmanthus flowers to bloom has just passed. Although some people clean the yard regularly, they deliberately did not sweep away the osmanthus flowers scattered on the ground, and you could still feel the fragrance of the mud on the ground.
When you walk through the front hall and the patio, you can see that the house is clean and tidy, and it is as clean as new as it is, but it does not destroy its profound charm. Although it is an empty house, its atmosphere does not feel desolate at all. When you walk through the house and come to the back garden, this is the essence of the entire building. The garden of about 700 square meters can be arranged so exquisitely, and it has a sense of distantness.
This is a good place to practice martial arts and test the Dharma. Only when I am in the scene can I feel it more sincerely. Cheng Tianle was a little reluctant to leave when he crossed the wall and said to the "rat": "I should really come in and take a look! The little sword pool cave that Bi Mingjun made use of the natural environment, but it is not comparable to this place. The ancients' Yunda hidden in the city, which makes it really reasonable. Who would have thought that it was in such an old alley?"
"Rat": "It's useless to be slanderous. Even if you have gained knowledge today, you will be able to get rich and you will see if you can make such a place as well?"
Cheng Tianle: "This is not something that can be built by a generation, it should be made over the years. Who said I can only be slander? Now I have also met Melander, and take the opportunity to get close to it, make friends, and wait for the Anda-landscape project to be resolved. Maybe there is still something to discuss. Anyway, it's empty here, so why not rent it to me for a while."
"Rat": "Can you afford to rent it? Even if you can afford it, will someone rent it to you?"
Cheng Tianle: "Didn't this just collect some money? If you really can't afford to rent it, just forget it. In short, find an opportunity to discuss it with others first."
Cheng Tianle didn't know that when he climbed out of the side wall of the back garden, a person came out silently under the shadow of the trees beside the hill. It turned out to be Meland, who should have stayed in the villa. Meland looked at the place where Cheng Tianle disappeared, and said with a faint smile on his lips: "Is it here to break into me? Well, it's impolite to come without going!"
...
Cheng Tianle returned to the apartment, swiped the card to open the door, took the elevator to the 12th floor, and just stood at the door in the corridor, "Rat" suddenly shouted in secret: "There is something wrong, there seems to be someone in the room!"
At this moment, the heavy anti-theft iron door opened itself, as if pushed by an invisible hand, looking extremely strange. A smiley voice came from the living room: "Mr. Cheng, have you finally arrived? Don't stand outside the door, please come in!"
This was the voice of Melander. Cheng Tianle was startled. He had just sneaked into Melander's house. Unexpectedly, when he came back, Melander was waiting in his apartment. Listening to the other party's tone, Melander was more like the owner of this place, and Cheng Tianle himself became a guest to visit.
"Rat" was also confused and exclaimed in his soul: "He! He, how could he be here?"
Cheng Tianle also secretly used his magic power to be on guard, standing at the door and said, "Mr. Rand, aren't you staying in the villa? Why did you come to my house?"
Meland stood in the hall with his hands behind his back and looked at the painting on the wall, and replied with a smile: "The villa is haunted. I live alone and I'm so bored that I'll come out to have some breathing. You also know that I have a house in Suzhou, so I went back to take a look, but I found someone breaking into the empty door. Mr. Cheng, since you can go to my place without saying hello, why can't I come here?"
Cheng Tianle was shocked again. It turned out that Meland already knew what he had done just now. He suddenly felt like a thief was caught on the spot. He blushed and walked into the apartment and explained awkwardly: "Don't get me wrong. Your house was discovered occasionally. I am a cultivator like you. I just need such a treasure land, so I am very interested and can't help but study it..."
Meland sat down on the swivel chair that Chen Tianle often sat on, pointed to the sofa opposite, and said, "Sit down and chat, have a cup of tea first. I'm so sorry, this is your place, so I have to lend your tea to entertain you."
When he looked down, Melander had even made tea. He looked like he was not hostile, and his breath was not aggressive, but his tone was quite like going to the doorstep to seek guilt. "Rat" secretly shouted: "Just talk, there is no need to be afraid of him! We broke into his house, didn't he come here too? It's even! Let's see what he wants to do first."
Cheng Tianle had to sit down with some anxiety and said, "Mr. Rand, you are visiting late at night to investigate the matter of me breaking into the house at night?"
Melander still had the smile on his face and nodded, "Yes, I want to hear Cheng Zheng's explanation. A master like you would not have that kind of hobby for no reason, right?"
Cheng Tianle answered honestly: "I have already said just now that I am also a cultivator. I just need such a blessed place. I occasionally find it very envious. I know that there is no one living there. I once wanted to rent it, but I couldn't contact the owner, so I asked someone to investigate whose house it was?"
