Chapter 157 The Haunted House
Chapter 157 Haunted House
"You, who did you just say?" Mr. Bai didn't know whether it was because he was burned, and his voice was trembling. "Who did you say your teacher just now?"
Xue Lince was stunned for a moment and looked at Bai Changlin with some inquiry in his eyes.
"My mentor is..." Before Xue Lince could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Bai Changlin waving his hand.
"Okay, stop talking, I understand." Bai Changlin reached out and covered his face, looking very painful.
"Mr. Bai, what's wrong with you?" Xue Lince could see that he was a little strange, so he stepped forward and asked, "Do you know your mentor?"
"I'm fine, I'm fine." Bai Changlin put down his hand and forced a smile.
Can you not recognize me?
His wife’s surname is Zhao...
Bai Changlin touched his neck and sighed in his heart. It turned out that the junior brother the teacher wrote in the letter was Xue Lince in front of him.
He smiled bitterly, but he must not let his wife know about this. It would be really serious if she knew that he not only teased his old Taishan for being a country scholar, but also tried to poach him.
"Lin Ce," Bai Changlin couldn't help but stand on end when he thought of his wife. He squeezed out a smile and said to Xue Lince in front of him, "Actually, I also studied with Mr. Zhao for several years in my early years, so I can be considered your senior brother.
Come to my house to play often in the future. Senior brother has official duties today, so I won't keep you here."
After saying that, as if being chased away by a dog, he served tea to see off the guests.
Before Xue Lince could react, he was already standing at the door of Bai Mansion.
Lao Zhang, who was driving the car, saw him coming out and wondered: "Uncle, why did you come out so quickly?"
"I don't know either..." In this way, although Xue Lince set off later than Tang Luoyu, he came back earlier.
"So Mr. Bai is your senior brother?" Tang Luoyu thought for a while, "That's not surprising. Mr. Zhao was quite famous when he was in Beijing, but I just don't know why Mr. Bai didn't ask you to talk about it."
"I don't know," Xue Lince also shook his head, "Is it possible that he wanted to rob the teacher and students but found out that the junior brother was in embarrassment?"
"It's not impossible," Tang Luoyu curled her lips, looking unconcerned, "big men like them always have some quirks of one kind or another."
Baifu.
Su He couldn't help it. Normally, it was the master who made others suffer, but today this young man actually made the master suffer. It was so long that he could see everything.
"Su He, what are you laughing at?" Bai Changlin also regained consciousness. Seeing the snicker on the attendant's face, he remembered the embarrassment just now, "Go and take a look at the stove. The master wants to eat pancakes for lunch today.
It has to be branded by you."
"Sir, I don't know how." Su He was stunned for a moment, thinking he heard wrongly.
"Then I don't care, I want to eat what you bake, so go ahead." Aunt Zaoshang hates other people's waste of food. If Su He goes to bake pancakes, he will naturally be scolded by the cook.
Seeing Su He go out with a sullen face, Bai Changlin felt relieved.
Tang Luoyu also told Xue Lince about her affairs with Wang Jue. Both of them felt that it would be better to avoid contact with this person as much as possible.
There were two knocks on the door: "Are you done talking? I have something to talk to you about."
Hearing that the person outside was Ke Ran, Tang Luoyu called him in, followed by a dark-faced Chai Jin.
"What's going on?" Tang Luoyu was a little surprised when she saw his dark face, "Who provoked you?"
Chai Jin glanced at Ke Ran and remained silent.
"No, you provoked him?" Tang Luoyu was very surprised. Normally Chai Jin listened to Ke Ran, but he didn't expect that the two of them would also get into trouble.
"No way," Ke Ran smiled and pulled Chai Jin to sit down at the table, "He's eaten too much."
Okay, you are the doctor and you have the final say.
Tang Luoyu did not delve into this question: "What do you want from me?"
"I just went out to purchase medicinal materials and heard something," Ke Ran smiled and tapped her fingers on the table twice, "over in the west city, there is a courtyard with four entrances and two cross-courtyards on both sides. What do you think?
Guess, how much?"
"So big?" Tang Luoyu frowned and thought for a moment, "Since you said it, it must be very cheap, more than 100,000 taels?"
"Miss Tang, your price is very cheap, more than 100,000 taels?" Ke Ran was a little speechless, "You can make a bold guess, the price is very cheap."
"This is the capital city. How much does such a big yard cost more than 100,000 taels?" Tang Luoyu was not in the mood to speculate, "Just tell me directly, don't be too pretentious."
Ke Ran stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Tang Luoyu.
"No way, only fifty thousand taels?" Tang Luoyu almost dropped her jaw, "Is this...seriously?"
"Of course I take it seriously." Ke Ran picked up the teapot and added some tea for herself, "How about it, do you want to buy it?"
Tang Luoyu was deeply moved. For such a big yard, not to mention in the capital or Xicheng, even in her hometown, fifty thousand taels was not considered a high price.
"It's so cheap. Is there a big flaw in the house?" Tang Luoyu was not an ignorant child, so she naturally didn't believe in pie-in-the-sky pie.
"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you," Ke Ran smiled and put down the cup, "Didn't you ask me before why Chai Jin was so sad? It's because of this flaw."
"Hey!" Chai Jin got angry when he heard this, got up and slammed the door and left.
"What's the flaw? Tell me." Seeing Chai Jin getting angry, Tang Luoyu couldn't help but calm down.
"It's a haunted house." Ke Ran thought about it, "It's very sinister."
"Very ferocious?" Tang Luoyu himself doesn't believe in the theory of gods and ghosts. In addition, he has lived a lifetime and died once. He has never seen any mountain spirits and ghosts, so he is naturally not afraid. "How ferocious is it?"
"The first person who lived in that house was Chen Xianzhong, a military general from the former dynasty, you know, right?" Ke Ran said and looked at Tang Luoyu.
"You know, if you attack a city, you will massacre it. The God of Killing, Chen Xianzhong," Tang Luoyu frowned, "It can't be him who is causing the trouble, right?"
"That's not true," Ke Ran smiled, "Listen to me slowly."
"This house originally belonged to Chen Xianzhong's family. Later, when the dynasty changed, it was given to Uncle Changping. Later, Uncle Changping's family fell into decline and was given to Prince Annan by the late emperor." After Ke Ran finished speaking, he looked at Tang Luoyu.
"Prince Annan... was he the one who had dozens of members of his family massacred in one night?" Tang Luoyu frowned, "If it were their family, I would understand. After all, the entire family died violently."
"Are you afraid?" Ke Ran gave Tang Luoyu some water, "Chai Jin said it was unlucky and didn't ask me to tell you."
"I'm not afraid, but can I buy this house? It won't exceed the limit, right?" Tang Luoyu felt a little uncertain, "After all, it used to be the mansion of the county prince."
"Of course not. The late emperor only gave it to them to live in when they came to Beijing. It was not a formal palace for a county prince." Ke Ran looked at Tang Luoyu in surprise, "Aren't you afraid?"
"What are you afraid of? It's not like I killed everyone in his family." Tang Luoyu looked at Ke Ran in surprise.
"But the people around me said that they heard noises in the house during thunderstorms."
