When I heard the village chief’s question, I said directly:

"The village chief, you have achieved this so far. There is no need to doubt our ability. Lao Zhao told us brothers about what happened in your village. We agreed to come to your village, mainly to see if this matter can be handled with confidence."

After hearing what I said, the village chief looked at me and continued:

"My little master, don't get me wrong. I heard Lao Zhao tell me that you will charge two thousand yuan for a trip, right? You can wait in the yard for a while, and I'll get it to you in the house."

The village chief said as he turned around and walked into the room.

At this time, Lao Zhao also came over and looked at me and asked:

"It's not too late this day. You will get the money later. I'll take you to the next yard to rest."

"Okay, no problem." Jiang Chao nodded and agreed.

Soon the village chief walked out of the house with cash, and he walked up to me and handed me the two thousand dollars in his hand:

"My little master, please count and see if it's right?"

After I put the cash over, I put it directly into my pocket:

"No need to count it, I will accept the money first. If we two brothers can't handle this matter in your village, we will return the two thousand yuan to you intact."

After hearing this, the village chief smiled and said politely to me:

"Look at what you said, you have come here, and you should get the money. No matter whether you can help the village, this money is just to give you the travel expenses."

I said after hearing this:

"The village chief, this code is the same. Since ancient times, it has been 'receiving money and eliminating disasters for people'. If we can't do this, we will never collect the money."

"It turns out that he is a master and has principles!" One of the villagers gave me a thumbs up at Jiang Chao and me.

Then I asked the village chief and others about the details about the villagers hanging in the yard, and then I left the village chief's courtyard with Lao Zhao.

Lao Zhao took Jiang Chao and me to the next yard.

As soon as we walked into the yard, Lao Zhao pointed at a row of low houses on the south side and said:

"Two little masters, we are anxious to come tonight, so we didn't make any arrangements in advance, so we just let you live in this west room first."

"No problem." I said and followed Jiang Chao. At this time, I had already seen that Jiang Chao's face looked a little bad...

Lao Zhao walked to the west room door, he took out the key and opened the door, pushed open the wooden door, then entered the room and pulled the light with his hands, then turned around and looked at me and said:

"There are two beds in this west room and a quilt in the cabinet. I will ask people from the village to bring you some hot water later. You are tired for a day, so hurry up and rest."

"Okay, Mr. Zhao, you should go back early to rest," I said.

After Lao Zhao left, Jiang Chao immediately began to complain:

"I said the 9th day of the lunar calendar. What do they mean? We came from all the way and arranged for us to live in such a place. Look, the tide is coming back!"

After hearing Jiang Chao's words, I quickly looked down at my feet. Under the dim light, I could clearly see that the cement floor under my feet was wet, as if I had just dragged it across the ground.

This is not right! The air in Gugu County is already dry, and it has not rained for several consecutive days, so why does this house have a tidal reflux?

If something goes wrong, there will be a demon!

Thinking of this, I said to Jiang Chao:

"Jiang Chao, don't worry about cleaning up first. We have to go out later?"

"Go out? Where are you going in the middle of the night?" Jiang Chao said as he seemed to have thought of something, and then asked me again:

"Dajiu, you... won't you take me to the land temple where someone hangs me now, right?"

I shook my head and said:

"No, Jiang Chao, don't you think something is wrong with this room?"

"What's wrong?" Jiang Chao immediately reacted as soon as he said that, and he pointed at the wooden door with his finger and said:

"Is the threshold too high? Don't say that, when I came in just now, I almost tripped by the threshold. What era do you think this is? There is such a high threshold, and it is inconvenient for older people to enter and exit."

Jiang Chao's words reminded me again that the west room is not only wet, but what is even more strange is that the threshold is surprisingly high. Now even in rural areas, there is no such high threshold, because it is extremely inconvenient for elderly people and children to go home when they live there.

Why does this west room still have such a high threshold?

Who is the owner of this yard? Why did Lao Zhao bring us here without even saying hello?

Thinking of this, I was just going out to take a walk and check the surroundings, but there was a knock on the door outside:

"Bang bang bang, bang bang! bang!"

The sound of knocking on the door is light and heavy, which means three long and two short. It seems that there is really a problem with the house. Illegal things came to the door so quickly!

"Who is outside?" Jiang Chao asked.

"Hello, two little masters, I am from the village committee. Mr. Zhao asked me to give you two pots of hot water." A little girl's voice sounded outside.

It seems that I was thinking too much. The current situation made me nervous and I had the illusion that all plants and trees were fighting.

After hearing this voice, Jiang Chao walked over and opened the door.

I also opened my yin and yang eyes at the same time. The little girl standing outside the door carrying two pots of hot water was full of yang energy, and she was not an evil spirit.

The little girl looked seventy-eight years old, tall and dark in shape. After she handed the kettle to Jiang Chao, she turned around and left.

But as soon as she walked out, she stopped. She turned around and looked at me and Jiang Chao and I, but stopped.

Seeing this, Jiang Chao began to be narcissistic and whispered to me:

"Chujiu, do you think this little girl is interested in me?"

"You can pull it down. Do you think the wild cat on the roadside looks at you for two more times?"

Jiang Chaodao:

"I'm just kidding."

"Miss, is there anything wrong?" I asked.

The little girl looked at me and sighed:

"No, nothing, you guys have a break early, I'll leave."

"Qujiu, this little girl must have something in her mind." Jiang Chao said.

"I know." I said, and walked out of the house quickly and called her again:

"Miss, wait a moment."

The little girl stopped and turned around and looked at me and asked:

"Do you have anything else?"

I walked over quickly and looked at her and asked:

"Do you have something to tell us brothers? If you have something to do, don't hide it. It's very important to you and me and your entire village!"

After hearing my words, the little girl bit her lip and said to me:

"You, you live here, don't open the door if you hear any sound at night, as long as you don't open the door, it's okay."
