Bailian's stand-in has collapsed [Transmigration Book]

Lin Jianqiu came closer, and noticed that the white crushed petals on the ground were all garlic.

But it looks like it was picked up from the side of the road. Most of them are dry and shriveled, and a small part of them has a small green shoot.

You can find a pot to plant.

The bearded man picked up two from the ground, and asked him kindly: "Do you want to chew two to prevent it?"

The mobile phone screen on the coffee table next to it played "360 Five Ways to Exorcise Ghosts", which happened to be talking about the magical effect of garlic.

Lin Jianqiu: "..."

It turned out to be such a "scientific" method.

He stepped over these garlics first,? He went to the balcony and opened the curtains first.

The room suddenly became much brighter.

The bearded man wrapped the quilt tighter.

Lin Jianqiu couldn't help asking: "Why did you suddenly think of exorcising ghosts?"

The bearded man hissed him, and lowered his voice and said to him: "This place may really be unclean,? I also heard that kind of child crying, and someone knocked on the door outside, thump, thud, thud , but no one was outside when I went out to see,? At first I thought I had heard it wrong,? Unexpectedly, it was connected several times later,? Only once, I saw a person in white clothes floating down the stairs ..."

He swallowed subconsciously as he spoke, and barely stabilized his voice.

"Then I went down and asked my mother-in-law who sells vegetables for some garlic, and I searched the Internet for how to exorcise ghosts...Don't tell me,? I didn't hear any sound after that."

Although it is very likely to be psychological comfort.

Lin Jianqiu looked at him with indescribable eyes for a moment: "Is smothering yourself to death also one of the ways?"

The bearded man gave a dry laugh: "I'm just a little cold..."

He didn't have the embarrassment to say that he was covered in cold sweat from being frightened, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and finally his legs were so weak that he couldn't walk.

Only being wrapped in a quilt can give him a little sense of security.

Originally, he stayed here because he was worried about what would happen to Lin Jianqiu if he stayed alone in this "haunted house".

It turned out that Lin Jianqiu was not very scared,? He himself was terribly frightened first.

It's really embarrassing.

The bearded man was even more reluctant to let go of the quilt,? He wished he could really suffocate in it.

Lin Jianqiu looked thoughtful.

He bowed his head and fiddled with his old mobile phone—except for the flickering screen after restarting, it didn't affect the use for the time being.

"Is that what you heard?"

There were bursts of howling from the phone. At first glance, it seemed similar to the cry of a child, but there were too many overlapping sounds, which made it a bit distorted.

The bearded man subconsciously shook his head, and nodded: "It seems to be the same."

He wrapped the quilt tightly and listened intently for a while, but gradually realized: "Is it the sound of a wild cat?"

Lin Jianqiu nodded: "There are many wild cats in this community, and it's spring again recently, so..."

The cry of a child is probably a wild cat.

Lin Jianqiu went to the balcony again, opened the window, stepped on the stool and leaned out of the window slightly, the bearded man looked terrified.

"Calm down—"

Lin Jianqiu just reached out and took out something from the outside of the window.

An obvious small hole suddenly appeared above the corner window, and scraps of old newspapers pressed against the edge also fell down.

The thing was already loose, so it was easy to take it off, and there were holes on both sides.

"What is that?" The bearded man couldn't help being taken aback.

"The broken little conch may be used to block the hole because it is the right size, but if the wind is a little stronger, it may be a little scary if it whimpers against the window and changes its tone."

"You found out when you came?"

"Well. At that time, the wind on the balcony happened to be a little strange, so I paid attention to it, but I didn't expect it to be taken off so easily."

Lin Jianqiu looked up at the small hole that was vacated: "Go back and seal it with tape."

"What about the ghost at night?"

"There is a broken piece of plastic hanging on the small roof opposite." Lin Jianqiu raised his chin to signal the bearded man to look at the opposite side, "I saw it last night, and the headlight behind it can just shine into the bedroom."

When the wind blows again, it looks more like a floating figure.

But he left early in the morning, and the bearded man was still sleeping. He only left a note telling him that he was going out, and he hadn't had time to tell him about it.

The bearded man was stunned for a while, and he let out a long sigh of relief: "So there are no ghosts at all."

"Wait, what's the matter with the knocker?" The bearded man stuck in his throat again, "And wild cats seldom bark during the day, but I heard that sound at that time."

"It's either a ghost or a human."

Before the words fell, there was another "dong dong dong" knock on the door.

Lin Jianqiu just walked to the door to get something, when he knocked for the first time, he pulled the door open with a single swipe.

The people outside the door probably didn't expect the people inside to react so quickly. After seeing Shang Lin Jianqiu's gaze, they were slightly startled for a moment, then turned around and were about to run.

It is indeed a white suit.

Lin Jianqiu's eyes were quick and his hands were quick, and he grabbed the corner of the person's clothes.

However, the people outside charged too hard, Lin Jianqiu was taken staggeringly, and bumped his head against the door frame.

"Boom."

A muffled sound was much louder than a knock on the door.

"Well."

Lin Jianqiu stretched out his hand to cover his forehead.

"what!"

The bearded man screamed, "Are you okay!"

Lin Jianqiu shook his head, but when he tried to stand up straight, he staggered, and he simply squatted down slowly, but when he raised his head, his forehead was flushed, physiological tears welled up in his eyes, and his eyes were also red.

Looks pitiful.

The instigator also subconsciously stopped, squatting on the two steps below the stairs, holding the handrail and looking back guiltily.

The bearded man ran out in a panic and grabbed Lin Jianqiu, and asked him nervously, "Does it matter? Should I go to the hospital? Can you still see clearly? Do you know who I am? Should I call an ambulance?"

He didn't say a word, and the people in the corridor squatted lower.

In the end, I almost lowered my head to the steps.

She looked down at the stairs below, took another sneak look at Lin Jianqiu, gritted her teeth, and finally retreated slowly, squatting and moving to the door little by little.

"Well... are you okay?" She asked cautiously.

The bearded man couldn't help but glared at her, but he still went to see Lin Jianqiu's situation first.

Lin Jianqiu squatted at the door for a while, then slowly shook his head.

Except for a moment of dizziness, it seems that there is no serious problem for the time being.

Seeing that he was really fine, the bearded man breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and noticed that there was a young woman squatting next to him, his anger dropped a little, but he was still a little annoyed.

"Were you the one who knocked on our door just now? Is it so fun to play pranks? Do you know that this kind of behavior is very bad?!"

It is even more frightening when a person who is always good-tempered gets angry.

The young woman complained under her breath at first, but soon shut her mouth under the glaring gaze of the bearded man, and lowered her head guiltily.

"I didn't do it on purpose, I just wanted to scare you and make you move away..." she explained in a low voice.

"You also made up the rumors of being haunted before?" Lin Jianqiu rubbed his forehead and asked her.

The woman nodded cautiously.

The anger that the bearded man had just suppressed came back up again, and the volume increased a lot: "Do you know that someone was scared by you and had a heart attack and went to the hospital!"

The woman couldn't help but make an excuse: "Obviously that man was guilty of guilt... He thought it was his wife who was catching him outside, but he got up in a hurry and hid in the closet, but he held his breath for too long and was frightened, so he just went to bed with him. Into the hospital..."

The bearded man glared at her: "Then the old man before must have been guilty of guilt! What if his heart is not good?"

The woman was speechless for a while, and lowered her head a little dejectedly.

Lin Jianqiu has been looking at her from the sidelines. The woman looks like she is only in her twenties. The white clothes should be deliberately changed to scare people. She doesn't care if the clothes are stained with dust. The makeup is naturally formed or manually added, but the fatigue and loss under the eyes are obvious.

"You're the first to say it's haunted."

"Hmm." The woman nodded feebly.

"Why do you say that?"

"I was taking medicine at that time." The woman grabbed her long hair, not to comb it, but to pull it down a little annoyed, "If I take too much, I will have hallucinations... I thought she was back... ..."

"Then why are you pretending to be a ghost?"

"I, I didn't want to... At that time, I moved out because of emotional problems, and then I wanted to move back after a month, but the landlord refused to move. At first, I just whispered to the old man that the place was haunted. , I didn't do anything else... Later, the one who cheated on him was deliberately scaring him, I didn't expect to scare him so casually..."

"You want to move back?"

The woman shook her head: "At first, I wanted to move back. Later, I saved some money and wanted to buy the house, but the landlord refused to sell it... I thought of this way..."

"Because of the rumors of ghosts, no one dares to rent here anymore. The landlord is afraid that the house will rot in his hands. It is better to sell it than to keep renting it out. Besides, I, I... I don't have that much money, just because I said Haunted, I can barely afford it..."

She looked up at the two of them, then lowered her head guiltily, and her voice became smaller and smaller: "The landlord has been shaken for a while. If you didn't rent it, I might be able to buy it directly."

So this time she didn't wait until midnight, but started to "work" during the day.

But she knew in her heart that this was wrong.

The uneasiness that had been suppressed for a long time broke out the moment Lin Jianqiu was hit.

Her eye sockets were slightly red, and she placed her hands on her knees neatly like a primary school student, not daring to move a bit.

The bearded man hated seeing girls cry the most, so he couldn't help being at a loss when he saw this, and subconsciously softened his tone: "Then, why did you do this?"

If it is just for this house, that would be too much.

But there are so many houses in Yuncheng, why this must be it?

The woman cried.

The tears were like a flood that had opened the gate, rushing down violently, and she couldn't stop it. She wiped her tears in a hurry, but because she cried so hard, her legs softened and she sat on the ground.

She didn't care, she just let go of her voice and started crying.

Fortunately, before get off work was over at this point, there was no one upstairs or downstairs, so no other people were attracted to watch.

Lin Jianqiu pressed the spot where his forehead hit and felt a bit of a headache.

The bearded man hurriedly took out tissues from his pocket, but he was afraid that the other party would dislike him, so he froze in place and looked at her helplessly.

Fortunately, after the woman vented, she gradually turned into sobbing softly, slowly telling her own story.

She had a gay man before.

It was in this house that the two established their relationship and lived together for several months.

However, due to pressure from family, studies, and work, the two gradually began to quarrel.

The woman is the older party and always takes the initiative to give in.

But after a long time, she also felt tired, and finally one day she couldn't help but said the word of breaking up.

It was just a momentary remark, and she would still regret it after she knew she had calmed down, so she would try to persuade her to stay.

But she has no chance.

She didn't know that her girlfriend was forcibly tied up by her parents to go on a blind date with a man, and she had reserved a room in the hotel.

After the young and energetic little girl came to her senses, she sneaked up on the man and ran out of the room. Her first reaction was to ask her older lover for help, but her words were vague, and the lover thought she was making trouble again.

After saying goodbye, the parents and the blind date chased after her, and the little girl jumped off the stairs without looking back.

The news was like a bolt from the blue to the woman, and what made her feel even more painful was that when she wanted to pay homage to her lost lover, she was blocked by the other's parents, who looked at her as if they were looking at her. something dirty.

The woman gradually collapsed and was in a trance all day long, sitting on the windowsill several times and was about to jump down.

One day she woke up suddenly, went to the doctor out of self-help instinct, and then she started to take medicine.

Her emotions gradually calmed down, and her rationality returned to her body, but she had hallucinations from time to time, always feeling that the ghost of her lover would return in that rental house.

After moving out, she often dreamed back at midnight, remembering the scene in that small house, where they spent most of their time together, and the memories that she could recall were almost all bright and happy.

That was the last thought left to her by her lover.

So she started racking her brains to buy that house.

After listening to the story, Lin Jianqiu felt thoughtful.

The bearded man sighed a little, and gradually softened his heart.

He raised his hand, wanting to pat the woman's shoulder to comfort her, but he remembered her gender halfway, froze in place again, and waved it pretending not to care.

"She must also like that you can live a good life." The bearded man persuaded, "You still have a long way to go in your life."

The woman was still sobbing softly.

The bearded man looked at Lin Jianqiu hesitantly: "Then... why don't you forget about it? It's a good thing not to be haunted, and she is indeed pitiful..."

Lin Jianqiu interrupted him: "But she was indeed almost scared to death."

The bearded man was at a loss for words for a while, and wanted to defend himself but couldn't find a reasonable reason: "But..."

Lin Jianqiu went on to say: "Then tell the landlord, after all he is one of the direct victims... As for whether to forgive Yuan, that is not something we can decide."

The bearded man swallowed the rest of the words.

This is also true. Although a woman's experience is very pitiful, she has indeed done something wrong.

You can't pretend that nothing happened just because you are pitiful.

But the bearded man still couldn't help muttering in a low voice, with [-]% perplexity: "In this world, how can there be such parents..."

"No matter how fast the times develop, there will always be people like this." Lin Jianqiu said as he reached out to touch his pocket, and when he took out his phone, he couldn't help being startled, "Huh?"

The bearded man asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Jianqiu looked at the old mobile phone in his hand, pressed the center of his eyebrows, feeling a little helpless: "It's out of battery again."

He got up and walked into the house: "I'll go charge the battery first."

Ye family.

Ye Linyun and Qi Yueze had a stiff dinner.

The main reason for the restraint was that the eldest brother Ye Huaishuang had returned, and he was even more silent than usual.

Ye Linyun couldn't help trying to recall what he had done recently that might offend his elder brother.

The conclusion is no.

His brother didn't care about his personal affairs at all, Ye's father and mother were away today, and Ye Huaishuang came back just to get an old document.

Because the aunt at home happened to be making dinner, and when she saw Ye Huaishuang, she warmly asked him to stay and finish dinner before leaving.

Ye Huaishuang was not busy for the time being, so she stayed.

But when eating, Ye Huaishuang was obviously absent-minded.

He stared at his phone from time to time.

After eating, I didn't let go of my phone, and I didn't play any games. I just looked up at the time and notification bar from time to time.

As if waiting for a call.

Ye Linyun honestly sat on the sofa with Qi Yueze and watched TV.

They would like to engage in other entertainment activities, but Ye Huaishuang is a heavy shadow in their love life.

This person was incomprehensible and extremely upright. He glanced over expressionlessly, and instantly poured a basin of ice water over the heads of the two people who were fighting fiercely.

At most, Ye Linyun could only whisper to Qi Yueze: "It's also my fault that my brother has never been in a relationship since he was a child, and he has dedicated himself to science."

Qi Yueze asked: "Do you really want your elder brother to fall in love?"

"Of course." Ye Linyun replied without hesitation, "If he falls in love, he definitely won't have time to deal with me. Moreover, the reason why he is so confused now is because he has never experienced love, so he can't empathize with him. After falling in love, you can be more tolerant to me..."

Qi Yueze noticed that Ye Huaishuang hesitated to make a call before leaving.

The phone was not connected, and the busy signal indicated that the phone on the other side seemed to be turned off.

Ye Huaishuang's expression was always expressionless, and it was impossible to tell whether she was angry or unhappy.

But obviously still caring.

Qi Yueze couldn't help asking: "Your elder brother's reaction now, has he met someone who cares?"

He didn't talk too much, but Ye Linyun turned his head and looked very firmly.

"He must have a crush on her. He looks so anxious." Ye Linyun couldn't help smiling, "I just don't know which girl is from. I'll ask around later, maybe I can match her up."

"What if the eldest brother doesn't like it that much?"

"That's not a bad thing. I've never seen him so caring before. He stared at his phone without eating. If he said he didn't like it, he would believe it."

Ye Linyun spoke with confidence, but Qi Yueze always felt a little uneasy.

It happened that Ye Huaishuang came over to say hello: "I'm going back to the laboratory first, when my parents come back, remember to tell him."

As he spoke, he subconsciously glanced at his phone.

Still no reply.

He looked away slightly disappointed.

Qi Yueze raised his head inadvertently, but happened to see the name displayed on the phone screen——

"Lin Jianqiu"

Qi Yueze: ...

Qi Yueze:? ? ?

The author has something to say: Ye Linyun: ... There are ten thousand dirty words I want to say
