The Trick of Longevity, Paper-cutting Becomes a Spirit

Chapter 187 House Owner
Lu Qian's spiritual power sensed that someone was coming outside, and the purpose of the visitor was very clear, and he came to this house.It seems that even if the visitor is not the owner of this house, he must be related to it.

Seeing this, Lu Qian asked Qinglin and others to go back to the room first, and stood in the yard waiting for them.

Not long after, someone came to the gate, opened the gate with a key, pushed the door and entered.

The visitors were a man and a woman, about 30 years old, dressed like villagers nearby.

As soon as the two entered the door, they suddenly saw Lu Qian standing in the yard. They were taken aback and shouted, "There is a thief—"

Lu Qian reached out and touched his nose, but unexpectedly, he was regarded as a thief.

He hurriedly called the two of them and said: "You two, I am not a thief, but a merchant passing by here."

This man and a woman look like a couple.When the two heard Lu Qian's words, they stopped and looked back at him for a while. The man asked, "You...are you really a passing merchant?"

Lu Qian smiled and said, "If I were a thief, would I still stand here and talk to you?"

The husband and wife looked at each other, as if they felt that Lu Qian's words made sense, and immediately felt relieved.

The man changed his frightened look just now, straightened his chest, stretched out his fingers and landed on the ground, and asked, "Why do you just enter other people's houses?"

Lu Qian said: "I came by boat from the lake, parked at the pier in the backyard, and came in directly through the back door. Are the two of you the owners of this house?"

When the woman heard Lu Qian's words, she shook her head subconsciously. She just shook her head before she woke up. She hurriedly stopped and turned to look at her man.

The man didn't answer Lu Qian's words, but instead asked, "What do you want to stay in this house?"

Lu Qian frowned slightly when he saw him talking, and gradually became impatient.He said bluntly: "I think this house is good, and I want to rent it to live in; if you two can decide, I can buy it directly."

"You... want to buy this house?"

The man was taken aback when he heard Lu Qian's words. He thought for a while, and suddenly realized: "Did you hear that this house is haunted, so you want to buy this house at a low price? Impossible, the owner will not sell it."

"Haunted?"

Lu Qian thought for a while, and said, "The owner of this house moved out because the house was haunted?"

The man was a little surprised when he heard the words, and asked suspiciously: "Why, you don't even know about this? It seems that you are really an outsider."

Lu Qian nodded and said: "Yes. It seems that the two are not the owners of this house."

The man said: "We are from Liulin Village, and we know the owner of this house. When they moved out, they asked me to take care of them."

Lu Qian heard the words, and said: "That's easy to talk about. You two rent the house to me directly, and you can ask for any price."

Hearing Lu Qian say "just ask the price", the man was a little moved. He opened his mouth, but didn't speak, as if he hesitated.

Seeing that his man was silent, his wife suddenly rushed to ask: "You... How much can you give? This house is very good, not an ordinary farmyard."

Lu Qian directly reached into his bosom, took out a large ingot of silver, about 50 taels, and threw it over.

The man took the money, glanced at it for a few times, his expression changed instantly, and he said in surprise, "I'm afraid...it won't be three or fifty taels?"

Lu Qian said: "You take the money first, and when you don't have enough, come to me for it."

The man stared at the silver in his hand, swallowed, he hesitated for a while, and still said: "This...we are just showing houses to others, this... I'm afraid it's against the rules..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he was pinched severely by his wife.The woman reprimanded the man in a low voice: "You are stupid, they have gone far away, when will they come back? This white money...you still push it away? You are a sinner..."

The woman reprimanded her man for a few words, then turned her head to look at Lu Qian, and said with a smile on her face: "Ah, guest... son, the money is enough, you just live here, and we can continue to come over every day to give you money." For cleaning, I won’t charge you too much.”

Lu Qian shook his head and said, "I like to be clean, so there's no need for that."

Seeing this, the man had no choice but to accept the fact.He frowned, and said to Lu Qian: "Think about it, this house will really be haunted at night, and the ghosts are quite powerful, and you can't subdue it after a few waves of Taoist priests. Otherwise, the master's house won't... hiss ..."

While he was talking, the woman beside him pinched his thigh, trying to stop him from continuing to speak.After pinching three times in a row, the man finally couldn't stand it any longer. With a hiss, he glared at his wife and said angrily:

"What are you doing, can you not explain this to him? It will kill someone!"

The woman reacted when she heard "Human life", she let go of her hand immediately, her face was a little embarrassing.

Lu Qian looked at the small movements of the couple and didn't care.Although this man put on a dirty face, his heart is not bad.

On the contrary, this woman, who lived in the city for a long time, learned the selfishness and smoothness of the city people, but lost the simplicity of the village people.

Lu Qian said: "It's okay. If I was really killed by a ghost, it's my own business and has nothing to do with you."

While speaking, Lu Qian stepped forward and extended his hand to the couple.

Seeing this, the woman snatched the key from the man's hand, handed it to Lu Qian, and said with a smile on her face, "My man's name is Su Dahe, and he lives in the next village. If you need anything, go find us there."

Lu Qian took the key, nodded, and said, "From now on, you don't have to take care of this house, and you don't have to come here again if you have nothing to do."

"Eh, yes. Then..."

The woman glanced at the somewhat messy yard, as if she felt that it was not good to just rent it out to guests, and was hesitant to clean it up.

Seeing this, Lu Qian said, "I'll do it myself, you don't have to worry about it."

"Okay, let's go then."

As the woman said, she pulled her man up and walked out.

When the two reached the door, the man Su Dahe suddenly turned around and said to Lu Qian: "This place is really haunted at night, you should be more concerned."

Lu Qian waved his hand and watched the two leave.

Haunted?

What he is least afraid of are ghosts.

If I remember correctly, there seems to be a Dragon King Temple nearby.

At first, Lu Qian didn't care about this dilapidated temple.

But after hearing Su Dahe's words, somehow, Lu Qian suddenly remembered the ruined temple.

Although the temple is dilapidated, it may not be without the "true god".

Although this "true god" cannot be the real Dragon King, but it is haunted under its nose, what kind of ghost is this?

Could this "ghost" be the "Dragon King" himself?

In this world, yin and yang are reversed, and strange chaos abounds.The "god" in the world may not necessarily be the "god" that Lu Qian recognizes.

Qinglin's hometown is here, ask her and she might know.

While thinking, Lu Qian closed the door, turned his head and walked back, ready to go into the house to ask Qing Lin.

He had just walked two steps, but everyone in Qinglin came out of the house first, even Xiaofeng followed.

They had obviously heard the conversation in the courtyard just now in the house.

Bai Tan smiled and said to Lu Qian: "I didn't see that you are really patient, and you are so easy to talk to these mortals."

Lu Qian ignored him. For goblins like them, mortals are just rations.Even if Bai Tan is a flower with a relatively gentle temperament, he will not treat these mortals as equals.

For Lu Qian, who has a deep-rooted concept of "everyone is equal", he couldn't adapt to their thinking for a while.

Lu Qian looked at Qinglin and asked, "Qinglin, your home is here, do you know the Dragon King Temple next to it; is there something living in this temple?"
