Chapter 399 Ghost Tower
Seeing that I agreed, Xue Bin nodded heavily.
"That's natural. You are the big financial backer behind me, so naturally you have the final say."
Xue Bin spread his hands with a flattering smile.
"Let's go then! Take me to see the place first."
Under Xue Bin's guidance, we soon arrived at the so-called ghost building, No. 18 Minglou Street
Minglou Street is located in the bustling area of Haicheng, surrounded by newly built commercial streets.
There is only one three-story old-style western-style building standing at the corner of the street, which is out of tune with the surrounding environment.
Judging from the architectural style of the old building, it must be quite old.
The doors and windows are all sealed with thick wooden boards, and the specific appearance inside cannot be seen.
A flash of green light flashed in my eyes, and I scanned the old building up and down carefully.
The whole old building looks unremarkable, at least you can't feel a trace of gloomy atmosphere leaking out from the outside.
I walked towards the door and looked up at the door beams where there were several talismans that were almost weathered.
"Ghost Suppressing Talisman!"
Since this place has changed hands several times, the owner must have performed rituals.
But now this ancient building is still idle, indicating that the fundamental problem still cannot be solved.
Since it is a haunted house, why is there not the slightest aura of darkness leaking out?
I searched carefully around the house and suddenly found two copper pestles with dragon patterns embedded in the wall on both sides of the threshold.ωωw..net
Most of the copper pestle is embedded under the foundation, with only a dragon head facing upward exposed.
"Binzi, go around this building and see how many such dragon-headed copper pestles there are."
Xue Bin heard the sound and trotted quickly around the back of the ancient building.
After a while, Xue Bin ran back panting.
"Thirteen, there are nine in total. What's the meaning of this dragon-headed pestle?"
"This is called Jiulong Suppression, and it should be used to suppress the house. No wonder you can't feel the slightest trace of Yin Qi leaking outside.
It seems that we can only find out what’s going on inside.”
I frowned and leaned forward towards the wooden board.
Follow the cracks in the wooden boards and glance into the house.
The room was pitch dark, and visibility was limited.
Just when I was about to look back, suddenly a scarlet eye looked at me from the crack in the door.
There was a faint fragrance coming into my nose from the crack in the door.
"Could this smell be..."
The blood-red eyes were like wild beasts, staring at me motionless.
I smacked my lips, a trace of blue flame appeared in my pupils, and I suddenly shouted towards the door panel.
"Look at your sister, look, I've never seen a handsome guy before!"
The thing behind the door panel seemed to be frightened and disappeared with a whoosh.
"Thirteen, who were you talking to just now?"
Xue Bin swallowed and asked tremblingly.
"It's not with you anyway."
I shook my head with a bored look on my face.
"Then can we sell this house?" Xue Bin looked straight at me.
I turned around and walked down the steps, raising my hand towards Xue Bin.
"First ask the landlord to come out and have a chat and see if we can reach an agreement."
"okay!"
When Xue Bin heard that this was possible, he quickly ran to the door and copied down the contact number of the homeowner.
"Then you guys wait for me first, I'll go to the phone booth over there and contact the homeowner."
After saying that, Xue Bin trotted towards the phone booth not far away.
Suddenly I felt a chill on my back and turned around suddenly.
I saw the window sill on the second floor and the curtains shaking, as if a pair of resentful eyes were staring at me.
After a while, Xue Bin ran back with an excited face.
"Thirteen, that's it. The landlord said that at three o'clock in the afternoon, he would invite us to the Mingtai Tea House for tea and an interview."
I looked at the sky, and it was just past twelve o'clock.
"Okay, you two take your time and stroll around, I'll leave first.
I will go directly to Mingtai Tea House to meet you in the afternoon."
Xue Bin scratched his head and asked, "Aren't you going to have dinner with us?"
I hummed softly and waved my hands towards the two of them.
"Forget it! I haven't shaved my head, so I can't be a light bulb.
I don’t have many Yuanbao scented candles on me, so I’ll go shopping in the nearby scented candle shop.”
After saying that, I couldn't help but kick Xue Bin's butt and pulled him over.
"You! Don't be like a piece of wood. Treat people to some delicious food and go to a movie early by the way.
You don't need me to teach you step by step about this little thing, brother."
Xue Bin curled his lips in dissatisfaction.
"You sound like you have experience."
I smacked my lips and showed off mysteriously.
"You kid, don't be dissatisfied. I've already beaten you. Compared to me, you're just a loser.
And she took the initiative..."
"Really? Are you bragging?"
Before I finished speaking, I felt a sharp pain in my waist, as if someone had pinched me.
"Thirteen, your face looks a little bad."
I gritted my teeth and waved my hands.
"It's okay, hypoglycemia, just take a few more steps and it'll be fine."
After I left, Xue Bin muttered with a puzzled look on his face: "It's strange, hypoglycemia shouldn't mean a pale face, why does his face turn purple.
You still want to lie to me, you must be constipated."
After we separated from Xue Bin, we wandered the streets for a long time before finally finding an incense and candle shop in a dilapidated old street.
I saw that the shop was in a mess, and a bald boss wearing reading glasses was sitting on a chair and counting money.
"Boss, here are three handfuls of red incense and two wads of paper money..."
The boss looked up at me and waved his hand.
"Sorry, they're all sold out."
I frowned and looked at the boss with a strange expression.
"Boss, don't be ridiculous. I also have an incense and candle shop in Yunzhou. This incense and candle shop can still sell out the paper money."
When the boss heard that I also opened an incense and candle shop, his eyes lit up.
“Brother, I’m not kidding you, it’s really sold out.
Since the store opened this morning, several waves of people have arrived, all of them buying incense candles and paper money.
All the inventory I had for several years was robbed, and those who bought incense candles were all foreigners, and they paid only US dollars.
Not to mention my place, even if you pay ten times the price in the entire Haicheng, you may not be able to buy a single Hades Coin.
Now the orders for Mingbi Banknote Printing Factory have been queued up for a month, and we can’t get the goods at all.”
I frowned, with a speechless look on my face.
"Brother, you just said that you also have an incense and candle shop in Yunzhou, can you still get the goods now?
If you have the supply, we might as well cooperate.
I'll pay for the shipping, and I'll charge you as much as you have."
While I was talking to the boss, I saw a blond foreigner rushing in towards the incense shop with a snakeskin bag in his hand.
Without saying anything, he just slapped a bunch of beautiful knives on the counter and spoke in broken Chinese.
