    When I heard this, I was unhappy, and said with a smile: "Why don't we dare to live in it? We dare to live in cemeteries in the wilderness."

    As Zhao Wen led the way, he turned his head and looked at me with a half-smile: "If it's a cemetery, it's okay. The place I'm taking you to is not a cemetery, but a strange inn. Someone died in this place a while ago.  The inn is closed now. The place where I arranged for you to live is this inn."

    "That's it?" I curled my lips and said, "Can this still scare us? You underestimate us too much."

    Zhao Wen said with a smile: "Okay, then go and stay overnight and have a look."

    Ruan Lingxi said in a low voice: "Look at this man's arrogance, it's probably because his family's case can't be solved, so I have to invite you here. They are not convinced, and they are trying to trick him."

    I snorted coldly: "I'm afraid of them, go and have a look first."

    A few of us followed Zhao Wen and Wang Jin to the inn in the ancient city of Pingyao.  Walking in this ancient city, I suddenly feel that the time is out of place, as if walking back many years ago.  It's summer now, not to mention the heat, but the weather in Shanxi is so dry and dusty, it's dusty all the way.

    On the way, Zhao Wen told us about the case that happened.  It is said that several college students died in a small hotel, and they were traveling in Pingyao.  When they died, it is said that they slept in an ancient embroidery building.  This hotel has also been exposed before, saying that there are supernatural events happening, but not to the point of death.  Now that he is dead, a case has finally been filed for investigation.

    We followed Zhao Wen to find the small inn. When we arrived, we saw that it was a rather large ancient style house, and that house had a rather special "embroidered building", which was on the top floor of the building in the middle of the yard.  Zhao Wen said that Xiulou was the scene of the crime and was sealed off, but other places were open for business, because the owner of the hotel still needs to make money to live.  Zhao Wen said, let us live upstairs there tonight.

    The four of us went up to Xiulou to have a look. The basic structure is a bungalow on the ground floor with a small room on top, and an antique carved bed on the second floor.  The boss is a slightly fat otaku, wearing glasses and not talking in a dull manner.

    The boss seemed to know Zhao Wen, and frowned. He was a little surprised when he heard that we were going to live in Xiulou.  But it specifically emphasized to us that the embroidered building is the residence of the ancient lady, and men cannot go up.

    Zhao Wen glared at him, and said: "People are killed, and you still care about it!"

    The boss didn't say anything, pointed to the back, let us go by ourselves, and threw us a bunch of keys.  I took the key and walked back.

    Ruan Lingxi and Tang Xin were very excited, talking and experiencing the daily life of a noble lady along the way.  I glanced back at them contemptuously, it was just funny.

    When I went to the backyard to take a look, the so-called embroidered building was a bit strange.  I saw a huge courtyard, three big houses on top of a small house, and two red lanterns hung on the cornices of the house, which was divided into upper and lower floors.  The doors and windows are closed.  The old bricks and tiles, the dusty walls, don't have the feeling of carved beams and painted buildings, it's very weird, and it doesn't have the beauty of Miss Xiulou at all.

    Before coming here, I read a lot of Shanxi Merchants Courtyards from the travel magazines in Wu Dan Bookstore, and felt that this one was not like an embroidery tower, but more like a watchtower.  The embroidered buildings of ancient aristocratic ladies are generally two floors above and below, and they are all buildings of the same width.  The upper floor is the lady's boudoir, with a balcony outside and female walls on both sides of the balcony.  In the lower room, there is a small living room in the middle, which is used by the lady to meet her family, and the small rooms on both sides are occupied by maidservants.  In short, it is very rare to erect a small house on the top of the three big houses. It seems that the origin of this house is strange, and it may not be used for what it used to be. It may be the ancestral hall of a rich family.  .  However, the ancestral hall is located in such a wonderful place, which is also superb.  Watchtower is unlikely.  Watchtowers are generally open all around, but this small building only has windows and doors on the front and back, but not on the left and right sides.

    During the day, the sun is strong, but you can still see a trace of black air radiating from this small building.  Tang Xin frowned and said, "What, this dilapidated place doesn't look like Miss Xiulou!"

    Ruan Lingxi nodded and said: "It's ugly. How do you live in this place? The weather is so hot that there is no air conditioner inside, right?"

    Zhao Wen said with a smile: "You will know when you go in, it is very cool, no need for air conditioning."

    We went into the house with our bags on our backs and tried it out. It was really cool, even without the air conditioner.  Zhao Yu and I live downstairs, and the room upstairs belongs to Tang Xin and Ruan Lingxi.  But because of Tang Xin's insistence, she slept downstairs with Zhao Yu, and I lived upstairs with the wicked girl.  I took a look at the quilts on the bed upstairs, there were two beds, one was made of cotton, and the outside was covered with a brighter silk quilt, embroidered with phoenixes, exquisite workmanship, just like the quilt for a fucking wedding.

    There are other modern equipment, such as water heaters, which are more convenient.  We put away our luggage and tidied up, Zhao Wen gave us a few meaningful instructions, and thenThen he left with that subordinate.

    Tang Xin and Ruan Lingxi packed their luggage, and Zhao Yu and I went upstairs and downstairs. Apart from the fact that this building is shady, there is nothing strange about it.  There must be ghosts staying there, but they hide during the day and don't see any shadows, and they can probably be seen at night.

    After packing up, Ruan Lingxi and Tang Xin said they were going to visit the ancient city of Pingyao, so we went out in a few afternoons and wandered outside for a while.  When I came back, it was already evening, and I saw various bars in the ancient city opened, and it became more prosperous.  But in the end, it was found that only the bar street was bustling, and the other places were all dark, and there were not many modern street lights. It was probably to maintain the original flavor of the ancient city, and the residents in the city did not have much nightlife.

    When we saw it was dark, we went back to the inn, only to find that the whole yard was not lit.  The otaku boss lives in a room in the front yard, and the lights in the room are also turned off. It seems that only the computer or TV screen is on in the room.  When I walked towards the gate, I was startled.  I saw an old lady sitting by the door, stroking a group of cats under her feet with her head down.

    This group of cats seemed to be wild cats, there could be five or six of them, and they all circled around the old lady.

    I frowned and took a look, and saw the old lady looked up at me.  In the dim light of the sky, I saw her wrinkled face, black and thin, looking straight at us, and murmured: "You guys are back, go in"

    Tang Xin shuddered when she heard this, and said in a low voice, "Is this old lady crazy?"

    Before I could speak, suddenly I felt a cool wind blowing around me.  Looking back, it seemed that a few black air were drifting towards the so-called embroidery building where we lived.  At this time, I saw the lights in the direction of the embroidery building in the backyard, probably to make it easier for us to go back.  But there is only one green spotlight on the upper floor shining down from the embroidery building, so the whole yard also becomes green.

    Well, this place is quite spooky.  We've seen too many ghost places and don't care a bit.  After entering the embroidery building, Ruan Lingxi and I went up to the second floor.

    The weather is very hot, Ruan Lingxi said to take a bath first.  So I gave up the bathroom to her.  Then he turned on the light and walked around the room.  I don't know what's wrong with Ruan Lingxi, but she actually sang a song during the bath, it's still very melodious, it gave me goosebumps.

    I just wanted to ask Ruan Lingxi if he had made a mistake recently, what kind of folk song was he singing.  But before he spoke, he suddenly felt something was wrong.  This singing voice was wrong, it was not Ruan Lingxi's voice at all, it was soft and soft, more like the voice of a shy teenage girl.

    Ruan Lingxi, a man with a loud voice, wants to sing a song, "Yellow people come to the ground and straighten out their new chests. Yellow people walk on the road and the world knows that I am different I have been magnanimous for five thousand years, and finally it is my turn to play"  I believe in this kind of song, what kind of love song and opera are you singing?

    There was a constant sound of water in the bathroom, it seemed that Ruan Lingxi hadn't finished taking a shower yet.  I hesitated for a moment, planning to check the situation before calling her.  At this moment, I suddenly felt a little humid in the air, like the feeling of returning to the humidity in summer after heavy rain, it was very sticky and uncomfortable.  I looked back and saw that there seemed to be little drops of water on the windows!

    It's very cloudy.  Thinking of this, I took out the charms Wu Dan gave me before I left, and pasted one on each of the four corners of the wall.  This is to drive away ordinary lonely souls and wild ghosts, and it also saves me from being watched in the middle of the night when I sleep.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
