Chapter 52
The shopkeeper of the dental shop is a lean middle-aged man in his forties with a short beard and a short, gray hair and beard.

Although his appearance was a bit ugly, people should not be judged by their appearance. Since Chen Yuan's elder brother Chen Wenqing was able to bring Chen Yuan to him, it proved that the shopkeeper of the dental shop was a good person.

After asking Chen Yuan and Chen Wenqing about the needs of the house, the shopkeeper of the dental shop pondered for a while.

"Shopkeeper Chen, this little Daoist, according to your requirements, it is not far from Lihua Lane in the west of the city, and there are a few houses for rent."

The shopkeeper said.

"Then trouble shopkeeper take us to have a look."

Chen Wenqing said.

The shopkeeper of the dental shop took a look at the sky, saw that it was still some time before dark, so he agreed to come down, then took the key to greet the shop assistant, and led Chen Yuan and the two to see the house.

The three of them came all the way to the west of the city, and after taking Chen Yuan and the others to see a few houses, Chen Yuan found that either the house was too small, or the layout was not good.

Chen Yuan was not afraid of the old house, as the house was meant for people to live in, and it needed popularity to support it.

If no one lives in it for a long time and loses its popularity, it will definitely look dilapidated if you visit it after a while, and it will even be barren and collapsed after a long time.

But if someone lives in it, becomes popular, and cleans it up a bit, it won't take long for a very dilapidated house to look like a new one.

Soon under the leadership of the shopkeeper, Chen Yuan fell in love with a house.

Although this house is dilapidated, it has an excellent layout, and it is located on the western edge of the city, with a very spacious location.

However, when he heard that Chen Yuanxiang had chosen this house, the shopkeeper of the tooth shop immediately looked embarrassed, and there seemed to be something hidden in it.

"What's the shopkeeper, seeing that you look so embarrassed, is there something wrong with this house?"

Chen Yuan asked curiously.

"Xiao Daoist, you are the younger brother of shopkeeper Chen. We are all on our own, and I won't hide it from you. There are indeed some problems in this house."

The shopkeeper finally gritted his teeth and told the truth.

"Could it be haunted?"

Chen Yuan was surprised.

"It's not haunted, it's because this house is a bit...evil."

The shopkeeper of the dental shop didn't know how to describe it. After pondering for a moment, he only thought of describing it as evil.

"What kind of evil law?"

Chen Yuan was surprised.

"In the past, this house was not for rent, but someone lived in it normally, but the people who lived in this yard suffered inexplicably. Some wives fell at home and were seriously injured, and some old people in the family were killed by villains. I was so frightened that I was delirious, and this house has changed several batches of owners since then."

"In the end, it was abandoned and sold to my dental shop by the owner of the house at a very low price."

"I thought I had picked up a great bargain, thinking that even if I couldn't sell it, I could make a fortune renting it to others."

"Who knows that the reputation of this house is already bad. Let alone renting it out in Pingliang County, you can't even sell it. This house fell into my hands."

"By the way, everyone says there are demons in this house."

The shopkeeper of the dental shop explained with a bitter expression.

"Is there a demon in this house?"

Chen Yuan was surprised.

He looked at the layout of the house in front of him, and found that the courtyard was particularly large, more than double the size of his brother Chen Wenqing's.

In the northeast corner of the house, there is also a big pear tree as thick as a pottery bowl. The tree is two feet high, and the pear blossoms are white all over the tree.

In the northwest corner of the house, a bamboo grove was planted, with about ten bamboos. The bamboo poles are green, the thickness of thumbs is thick, and the bamboo leaves are green. The growth is excellent. The species seems to be Xiangfei bamboo.

It's just that the yard has become barren because no one has lived in it for a long time, and it is covered with knee-high weeds, especially foxtail and white thatch.

If this barren and dilapidated yard is cleaned up, it will be an excellent place to live.

Not to mention the inside of the house, just looking at the scene of the yard made Chen Yuan very satisfied with this house.

"Yes, some people have seen it. They say it is a small person with a height of three or four inches. I don't know what it is."

The shopkeeper of the dental shop looked very helpless.

"Shopkeeper, how much does it cost to rent this house for a month?"

Chen Yuan asked.

"Erlang, didn't you hear what the shopkeeper said? There is something wrong with this house. No matter how much money it costs, it is not safe to live in. Let's change the house."

Seeing that Chen Yuan had the idea of ​​renting this house, his elder brother Chen Wenqing quickly persuaded him.

"It doesn't matter, brother, as I said before, I have also learned some skills over the years. I am not afraid of ordinary little demons and ghosts."

Chen Yuan didn't care at all, he said indifferently.

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

After carefully looking at Chen Yuan, the shopkeeper of the tooth shop said respectfully:
"It seems that shopkeeper Chen's younger brother came back after being missing for several years. He not only entered the Taoist sect, but also learned a lot of skills."

Then he added:
"Since Chen Xiaodao intends to rent this house, I will give this house to Chen Xiaodao for free. If Chen Xiaodao gets tired of living there anytime, just say hello to me."

In fact, the shopkeeper of the dental shop also has his own little thoughts.

The house is still there, and it can't be rented out anyway.

It's better to let Chen Yuan live in it first. If Chen Yuan is a Taoist master with real abilities and no strange things happen after living in it for a period of time, it proves that this house is fine.

When he rents or even sells it again, someone will definitely take over.

In this way, we can solve this house that is about to rot in our hands, and at the same time, we can make good friends with an expert with real skills. Why not do this kind of thing?

If Chen Yuan is a Taoist priest who doesn't have much real talent and learning, but can only boast...

"Of course, I have to make it clear in advance that this house was cleaned up by many Buddhist and Taoist experts before, but it didn't help much at all."

"If Mr. Chen Xiaodao is willing to live in, any accidents will have nothing to do with me and the tooth shop."

The shopkeeper of the tooth shop reminded Chen Yuan that he took out the relationship between the tooth shop and himself at once.

"Erlang..."

Hearing what the shopkeeper of the dental shop said, Chen Wenqing became more worried for a while, and he wanted to persuade Chen Yuan again.

"Brother, you don't have to persuade me anymore, I've made up my mind."

Chen Yuan interrupted Chen Wenqing's words.

"Shopkeeper, I have rented this house."

Chen Yuan said to the shopkeeper again.

"But you can't do it if you don't collect the rent money. Brother, you can lend me three hundred sons, and I will return it to you later."

Chen Yuan said to his elder brother Chen Wenqing.

"I'll rent this house for half a year first, and I'll give you three hundred sons, whether it's enough or not, that's all."

Chen Yuan looked at the shopkeeper again and said.

"No, no, Mr. Chen Xiaodao, shopkeeper Chen and I can be regarded as good friends. Since you are his younger brother, you can live in this house for free for half a year."

The shopkeeper of the dental shop repeatedly waved his hands and refused.

What he thought in his heart was that it would be fine if Chen Yuan couldn't deal with the evil things in this house. If Chen Yuan could really solve the problem, it meant that Chen Yuan was a real expert.

It's too late for him to make friends with such an expert, so how can he accept money from the other party?

Chen Yuan naturally refused, he didn't want to owe anyone a favor.

In his view, favor is cause and effect.

After several disputes, the shopkeeper of the dental shop could only give a compromise plan:

"Look at this, Mr. Chen Xiaodao, if you can really live in this house, I will rent it to you for free for two years. If you renew the lease after two years, I will charge you the rent normally." how?"

The so-called lease money is rent, which is the jargon of the dental industry.

"Okay, that's it for now."

Seeing that the shopkeeper of the dental shop was determined not to charge the rent, Chen Yuan had no choice but to agree.

Therefore, this house, which is not far from Lihua Lane, and it takes only a quarter of an hour to walk through the lane, was rented to Chen Yuan by the shopkeeper of the tooth shop for free.

 ps: I have something to do today, I went out for a trip, the update is a bit late, and the code word speed is very slow, it is estimated that Chapter 2 will be early in the morning.
