The years of reselling the haunted house

Chapter 19

Uncle San nodded: "Are the coffins all the same size?"

Old Wei shook his head: "The eight coffins are one big and seven small. There was no accident when the seven smaller coffins were taken away. To deal with the big coffin, oh, it was dug out when the foundation of the main building of Tianyou Square was being dug. When I was in the coffin, something happened."

The third uncle asked: "What accident?"

Old Wei said in a low voice: "The seven coffins are all in tatters, except for the big one, which was still new when it was found, not rotten at all, as if it had been buried not many years ago. When the coffin was opened, a strange thing happened. At the beginning, six people were on board, and they were lifted out with ropes. Who knew that the coffin seemed to be rooted, and it didn’t move at all. Later, another six people were added, using poles Prying and pulling with a rope were useless. In the end, I simply got a crane to hang it out..."

I heard the interjection here: "No way? Even the crane doesn't work? Isn't this too outrageous?"

Old Wei shook his head: "That's not true. Just when the rope was tied to the coffin and it was about to be pulled by a crane, suddenly there was a sound from the coffin... The sound was very strange, like crying and like Some animal howled dryly, and made a grumbling sound, as if something inside was scratching the coffin. This frightened the onlookers quite a bit, and most of them ran away. The man driving the crane I didn’t dare to move anymore. The boss of Tianyou Group, Wu Tianyou, was there at the time, probably to show off in front of the boss. There was a person next to the boss, who was actually the boss’s bodyguard. Everyone was scared enough, but he didn’t believe in evil, so he volunteered He jumped down with the stick in his hand, swung the stick and hit the coffin three times."

Speaking of this, my third uncle and I listened intently. Old Wei himself became nervous, so he took another sip from his glass and said, "Guess what happened?"

I said angrily: "Old Wei, don't be a fool, just say it."

Old Wei was a little embarrassed by what I said, so he hurriedly said: "That bodyguard is strong, with a big arm and a round waist, and the bar is as thick as a child's arm. After smashing it three times, the coffin was not damaged. What's more frightening is that When the bodyguard hit it for the third time, the bar snapped and broke, and the broken half of the bar flew into the air. When the bodyguard looked up, the bar just fell and hit his temple, and died on the spot , and a faint black gas kept coming out from the coffin.”

This scared more than half of the remaining people around, only Wu Tianyou and some of his subordinates, some leaders of the builder were present, and the invited Taoist priest was also there.

The Taoist priest still has some skills, and it can be seen that the fierceness of the coffin owner has dissipated. There is only one way to temporarily suppress the fierceness of the coffin owner, and that is to fight fierceness with fierceness.He can write a coffin talisman, but it needs human blood with aura.

At this time, no one expected that Wu Tianyou, who had been standing aside, suddenly pulled out a knife and stabbed it in his right leg.

Before anyone could react, another two stabs followed.Three cuts down, bleeding profusely.A lot of blood spattered on the coffin.

When the blood splashed, there was a whining sound.

When the Taoist saw it, he hurriedly took up a talisman and drew it by wiping the blood on Wu Tianyou's leg with a Chinese ink brush.After the talisman was completed, the talisman was put on the coffin.

Strange to say, as the yellow talisman was attached to the top of the coffin, the black air escaping from it disappeared.

The Taoist hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up, the coffin can be raised, hurry up."

Tianyou Group hurriedly found another group of people and hoisted the coffin up with a crane.I don't know where it was sent for appraisal, but later there were rumors that the coffin wood was extremely rare golden nanmu.As for how the corpse was disposed of, outsiders do not know.In short, after that incident, the construction of Tianyou Square stopped for two months, and then started again.Later, I heard that the Taoist priest thought of a way, and there were no accidents on the construction site since then, until the eight buildings were successfully built.

At the beginning, Tianyou Square was very hot.It also drove the surrounding economy, and the hotel's turnover also rose rapidly.Who knows that the world is unpredictable, and within a few years, the business of the square has plummeted, and there have been several incidents of jumping off buildings, and the number of businesses is even more pitiful.

As he spoke, Third Uncle asked about those times when Old Wei jumped off the building.Old Wei didn't know much, but he shared a detail.He said that those who jumped from the building were all merchants in the original square.When I jumped off the building, it was always in the middle of the night.In other words, they deliberately stayed in the mall after the mall closed, and jumped to their deaths in the middle of the night.Moreover, before jumping off the building, someone heard a sad flute song appearing from the rooftop.

The third uncle was taken aback: "Flute music? What kind of flute music?"

Old Wei shook his head: "I don't have much education, but I don't know what kind of flute music it is, and I haven't heard it before. It was told to me by Lao Xiao who was playing watch in the square."

Hearing this, Lao Wei finished what he knew about Tianyou Square.

I thought for a while and asked: "I see that Wu Tianyou's legs are still limping now, could it be a fault that fell at that time?"

Old Wei said: "Isn't it? It must be. If you want to suppress the evil coffin, how can you do it without paying a price?"

The third uncle waved his hands without saying yes or no, and said, "Old Wei, hurry up and eat. Go back and rest after eating."

Old Wei looked at the big table full of dishes, and asked stutteringly, "You...don't you eat..."

Before we could answer, Old Wei went on to say, "If you don't eat, can I pack these... these things back for my wife?"

My third uncle and I looked at each other and smiled.

I waved my hand: "We are not hungry, you can ask the waiter to pack it. Let's go upstairs first."

Old Wei smiled happily, nodded and bowed to agree.Seeing his smiling face, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, how easy it is for such a person living at the bottom of society to be satisfied.As the saying goes, contentment is always happy, how many people want to pursue this?This is the first time for me to visit this kind of restaurant in a five-star hotel, not to mention Lao Wei.Old Wei is satisfied, what about me?

My third uncle and I went back to the room, and my third uncle glanced at me and said, "You are so generous, we didn't eat a single bite, and this old Wei took it away."

I chuckled: "Isn't it possible to pay the bill? If you want another one, you can eat it in the room."

The third uncle waved his hand: "Forget it. Isn't there instant noodles in the room? Let's deal with it first, that Mr. Wu is probably coming soon."

We were eating instant noodles, and not long after, Wu Tianyou brought Liang Yue to the room.

Seeing us, Wu Tianyou frowned and said, "Why do you just eat this?" He looked back at Liang Yue, a little dissatisfied.

I hurriedly said: "Mr. Wu. We have eaten in the restaurant below, and we will have a bowl of instant noodles when we come up to fill in the gaps."

These words were originally intended to save Liang Yue from the siege, but this reason was too useless.So Liang Yue didn't appreciate it, and gave me and my third uncle a contemptuous look.

Wu Tianyou said: "This... There is no need to eat this for caulking, you can order some desserts..."

The third uncle waved his hand: "No need, no need. We'll just eat whatever we want. Mr. Wu, let's have a brief chat."

Wu Tianyou nodded, sat down, and put the walking stick in his hand aside.

The third uncle took a look and asked casually: "Mr. Wu, I would like to ask, your leg..."

Wu Tianyou smiled wryly, and told what happened back then.What he said was similar to what Old Wei said, but not as vivid as what Old Wei said, and some details were also briefly mentioned.Regarding the matter of stabbing his butt to suppress the coffin, what he said was an understatement.

The third uncle nodded, and asked again: "I think Mr. Wu's cane is not bad, so there must be a history?"

Wu Tianyou smiled and said: "My brother Wu Tianxiong, who is not up to date, gave it to me when he saw that my legs were not good. Tianxiong didn't do anything serious, so it's rare that he still thinks about me, so I just kept it."

The third uncle asked again: "Then your leg...is it always like this?"

Wu Tianyou shook his head and said: "That's not true. It wasn't so serious at the beginning, and walking was normal. It's just that the past two years have been bad, and I'm getting weaker and weaker. Now I can't walk without this cane."

We chatted with Wu Tianyou in the room for less than an hour. He was really too busy, calling one after another.Seeing that there are no clues to come out, we are going to end this conversation.

Wu Tianyou stood up and waved his hands. Liang Yue put a small leather bag on the table. When the zipper was opened, there were two stacks of banknotes inside.

Mr. Wu said: "The 20 yuan is a hard work fee for the two of you. Whether it succeeds or not, you deserve it. If it is done, I have a big thank you."

The third uncle's eyes lit up, he pretended to shirk, and then he readily accepted.

Mr. Wu still asked Liang Yue to cooperate with us, and he left the hotel first.

Liang Yue said: "It's getting late, you guys should rest. I live next door to you, call me if you need anything."

Just as she was about to leave after speaking, the third uncle stopped her and asked, "Assistant Liang, do you have the key to enter the main building of the mall?"

"Key? When do you want to go?" Liang Yue asked.

"I can't tell. Maybe I have to go and see what I think of, so it's more convenient to have a key."

Liang Yue waved her hand: "I don't have the key, but I can call to open the door. So when you go, just call me."

The third uncle was taken aback, and said, "I'm afraid that won't work. When we need the key, it's mostly at night. I've mentioned that place, it's too evil, you're a girl..."

Liang Yue's face was full of displeasure: "What's wrong with the girls? It's as if you're capable if you're not a girl. I want to see what your real abilities are. That's it. Anyway, you can't get in without me. That building."

After finishing speaking, Liang Yue shook her head and walked out of the room haughtily.

"You... this girl..." Uncle San waved his hands angrily, and said to me, "I'm really doing it for her."
