Renew

The carriage entered the yard and the door was closed.

Hua Su stood outside, covered the door with his hand, frowned and said, "It's not a cat demon."

What he said was really vague, Rong Li couldn't understand it, it's not a cat demon, so what is it?

Hua Su said calmly: "I only met him once, I will go in later, borrow things from others, it is better to be gentle, robbery is an act of bandits."

Rong Li wanted to ask at first, but he suddenly noticed that there was a ghostly aura in the room. The ghostly aura was strange, it was not there before, as if a living person suddenly lost its vitality and turned into a ghost.

She hurriedly turned her head and said in surprise: "Have you noticed that the life in this room is gone, where is the man who just entered the room?"

You shouldn't just find a hemp rope or find a knife to kill yourself as soon as you enter the house. This life is too fast, and it disappears suddenly, just like losing your life.

"Suddenly turned into a ghost." Hua Su said calmly.

Rong Li was stunned, even if the skinned ghost put on a piece of skin, he would still have a ghostly aura on his body, he wouldn't completely turn into a living person once he put on the skin.She took a half step back and realized that the man in the yard was unusual, "How did he do it, then is he alive or dead?"

Hua Su had no expression on his face, he seemed to be thinking about it, and after a while he said, "Naturally, it's human."

Rong Li stared blankly, "I've turned into a ghost, can I still be considered a human?"

"It's not a ghost, and it's not a demon or immortal, so it must be a human being." Hua Su said.

Rong Li had no choice but to ask: "Then when we will go in, do we still have to knock on the door for him to open?"

"Naturally." Hua Su said.

Rong Li was at a loss, followed her and stood outside the house waiting, always feeling that he would not be able to wait long enough.

This courtyard is not in a busy city, nor is it too deserted. At this time, dusk fell, and people returning home passed by the courtyard one after another.

Someone paused, looked towards them in surprise, and then walked away without saying a word. The two legs alternated quickly, and they walked away in one go, as if they were frightened.

Rong Li noticed that there was someone behind him, and looked back slowly, just happened to see the figure of a passerby walking away hastily.

"Could this house be a ghost house? How could passers-by be so afraid?"

Hua Su stood calmly, passers-by couldn't see her, so naturally she didn't even have the slightest ups and downs in her heart.

Rong Li mumbled: "Are we just standing here?"

Hua Su said: "If you're tired, lean against me and wait a little longer."

Rong Li leaned on her, but he didn't dare to lean too obviously, for fear of being seen by others.

The twilight in this place came and went quickly, the sky darkened immediately, the rays of the sun were wiped out, and the sky was left with blackness.

Most of the passers-by went back when the twilight came. When it was dark, there were not many people on the street.

Hua Su raised his hand to knock on the door, but he just knocked on the door without saying a word.

After waiting for a while, no one responded, thinking about how there was no living breath in the house, how could someone come to open the door.

Rong Li was thinking about what the man was doing for buying so many fish, when suddenly there was a figure beside him.

"I'm hungry." A voice suddenly sounded in my ear.

Rong Li was startled, turned his head abruptly, not knowing when this woman came.

The woman stared at the door in front of her without turning her eyes, turning a blind eye to the person who knocked on the door together.She was dressed in fancy clothes and her hair was combed neatly, she seemed to be the daughter of a rich family.

But the weirdness is the weirdness...

The woman was also lifeless, and her body was still tainted with ghost energy.

It's a dead soul.

Half of the woman's body was chilling as she approached, and she cast a cautious glance at Hua Su.

Hua Su knocked on the door again, but still didn't speak.

The door opened suddenly, just a little, about a crack.

Hua Su was about to stretch out his hand to pull the door, but the woman beside him hurriedly raised her head and cast a cautious glance.

The woman had a pair of beautiful cat eyes, the pupils were round and blue, and they looked a bit like pendant beads in a sachet.

Almost in such a moment, Rong Li was sure that this woman was a cat demon.

Sure enough, the woman became short and turned into a white-haired cat, squeezed in and disappeared.

The door was closed abruptly, and the crack was reserved for cats, not to welcome guests.

This cat spirit can clearly pass through walls and doors, but he doesn't know where he learned the rules, and he knows how to wait for the door to open before entering.

Rong Li stared, "Could it be that this woman is a cat demonized ghost, she has no life on her body, it's obvious..."

"That's right. You said he raised cats, but that's not true. You said he raised ghosts, but that's not entirely true." Hua Su said softly.

"Then why are we waiting here?" Rong Li was a little tired from standing, and leaned on Hua Su again.

Hua Su stood and let her lean on her, raised his hand and knocked on the door again.

After a while, there was a fishy smell in the house.

Rong Li raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose, he felt the smell was bad, even worse than the hundreds of fish fairies gathered together by the edge of Dongming Lake.

Another person carrying a load passed by on the street. The person paused and asked, "Why does this house stink again? It stinks every once in a while." He raised his eyes and saw that There was a girl standing outside the door of the family, who was so frightened that she almost threw the pole out.

Rong Li turned his head to look at him, there was not even a single lantern in this street, so beautiful, his face was dark at night.

The man moved his legs slowly, squinting his eyes as if trying to see her face clearly, "Girl, you... do you live here? Why are you standing here?"

Rong Li shook his head, "No."

The man breathed a sigh of relief, "It's useless to knock on the door. I don't know if I'm killing fish or what I'm doing inside. I have to smoke it every once in a while, and the smell lasts for a few days. People often knocked on the door before, but the house That man in Lin doesn't even care about people!"

Rong Li blinked, the co-author regarded her as a neighbor.

She turned her thoughts and asked, "Have you seen the people who live there?"

The man carrying the shoulder pole said: "I haven't seen it before, but once he came back driving a carriage, I happened to bump into him. I wanted to ask him what kind of business he was in, but he drove the carriage directly into the yard. !"

The man was very surprised, "It's sad that this house doesn't even have a threshold, and even made a slope, and the door is opened very wide. How can the door of an ordinary house be opened so wide? It turns out that it is for carriages to enter!"

Rong Li lowered his eyes, "He won't come out after he enters the house? How can he bear the smell?"

The man shook his head: "I don't know, it is said that he comes out once a month, and he doesn't even go out on weekdays. When he comes back, the house will have to be fumigated for a few more days. Two families have been moved from this street. If not, then leave."

He paused and continued: "However, my girl has seen the door open, she opened it a crack, and no one came out, and no one knocked on the door, opened it for a while and then closed it, which is very strange."

Rong Li sighed softly, and put on a show: "Rao is the back chef of the restaurant, and he doesn't have such a big smell anymore. I thought something happened, so I came here to take a look."

The man laughed dryly, "There have been troubles before, and the government came to knock on the door later. The girl is new, but she's new here?"

Rong Li simply nodded, "Come to see relatives, I'm walking around the street today, I happened to pass by here, so I stopped to have a look."

The man waved his hand: "Girl, let's go back, the people living here are very weird, it's better to stay away."

Hua Su was quite dissatisfied, "How can I say a few words to anyone? Didn't I feel very tired when I leaned on me? Now I have the strength to speak again."

Rong Li waited for the man to pass by before saying: "If I don't speak up, he might think I'm a ghost."

Hua Su sneered, "If you want to be a ghost, you have to ask me."

The stench really became more and more intense, as if the wagon full of fish had been gutted.

Thinking about it, maybe it was really gut-wrenching, the cat said a word before entering the door - "I'm hungry", and it may have been full by now.

Rong Li felt a little disgusted after hearing it for a long time, and simply said: "We don't know when he will open the door."

As soon as the voice fell, the door opened.

A cat came out and looked up warily when it came to their feet.

The cat suddenly jumped into the distance, and the shadows disappeared.

Before the door was closed, Hua Su suddenly raised his hand to block the door.

The people in the room seemed a little surprised. Just about to exert force, they suddenly felt a pressure on their shoulders.The man opened the door in surprise, and when he saw Hua Su, his whole body tensed up, and his lips were tightly pursed, like a bowstring.

The man was extremely nervous and remained silent for a long while.

Hua Su said lightly, "I was the one knocking on the door just now."

The man frightened: "You, you are..."

He had obviously never seen Hua Su, and after being silent for a while, terrified by Hua Su's coercion, he hastily called out "My lord".

Hua Su didn't change his face, "My lord doesn't dare to bear the burden, why don't you invite me in for a seat?"

The man immediately opened the door, raised his hand and scratched his hair and said, "I haven't cleaned it up, I'm afraid I'll be rude, sir."

"It's okay." Hua Su put a circle on Rongli's wrist, and led the person in.

Rongli entered the room, looked around for a while, and finally landed on the man, she was quite surprised, the man really had a ghostly aura on him, and he still looked like a ghost, his body didn't know where to put it.

Hua Su immediately said, "It was a hundred years ago when I saw you last time."

The man was stunned, "My lord has seen me?"

He was not wearing coir raincoat and bamboo hat at this time, his face was completely exposed, he was handsome and clean-shaven, and he still had a bookish air about him, he looked like a literati, but unfortunately his body was full of stench.

Hua Su snorted coldly, "Do you still remember the time when you were captured by Wuchang?"

The man nodded quickly: "I remember."

Standing beside Hua Su, Rong Li saw the carriage on the side of the house from the side of his eyes. The bamboo curtain of the carriage was raised, but it was dark and dull inside, so he couldn't see what it looked like.

Hua Su said softly, "You are raising her."

"Yes." The man's face was pale, "That time I was captured by Wuchang, but fortunately the lord said a few words for me, Wuchang let me go, otherwise I wouldn't be able to wander in the world for so long, my lord... But you met me in the Hall of Yama?"

"Not bad." Hua Su didn't reveal anything else at all.

Rong Li thinks about it too, when Lord Youming came down to the Hall of Yama, he should have been obsessed with painting, otherwise, how would Hua Su know about this person.

"Your birthday is long overdue." Hua Su said indifferently.

The man was a little scared, "It's early, but I can't let her go."

"She's already a ghost, since your lifespan has come, why don't you reincarnate with her?" Hua Su raised his eyes.

But the man shook his head violently, "No, sir! After reincarnation, I don't know when we will meet again."

Rong Li was in a state of confusion when he heard that, if, as Hua Su said, the last time she saw a man was a hundred years ago, then even if he is alive, he must be hundreds of years old, his soul looks like a young man, I don't know if his body is the same.

Hua Su thought for a moment, "If there is a destiny, we will definitely meet."

The man shook his head again, "Our karma is over. I saved her once, and she repaid her kindness later, but in fact there is no more connection. The matter of fate should have disappeared long ago."

"That's why you hooked her with a fish so that she wouldn't want to be reincarnated and would come to you every month?" Hua Su snorted coldly.

The man was told, he lowered his eyes in embarrassment, rolled his eyeballs, and hurriedly asked, "Why did your lord come here?"

"To borrow something." Hua Su said.
