Healing Hotel

Yu Qing looked around and looked out of the window, but there was no one there, so he asked tentatively, "Who are you?"

"Young man, take that big cockroach away first, don't let it run around and scratch me." The old man complained.

cockroach?

Yu Qing looked around, only his sweeper was moving.

He pressed the remote control to pause, and said, "Is that the cockroach you're talking about?"

The old man relaxed and said, "Yes."

Yu Qing explained dumbfoundingly: "It's not a cockroach, it's a sweeping robot for dust removal."

Then he asked, "Can you answer my question now? Who are you? Where are you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a person appeared at the door.

The man was wearing a blue gown with wide sleeves and a high bun. He looked like an ancient man, with an abacus in his arms, leaning against the door, staring at him indifferently.

Yu Qing thumped, and asked quietly in her heart: "586, is this a human or a ghost?"

586 said indifferently: "Is there a difference? I think you and the ghost can have a good chat, the host."

Yu Qing: "..."

At this time, the old voice said: "I am the house you are in."

Yu Qing didn't realize it: "The house?? You mean..."

"Hey, you can think of me as the spirit of the house. Although this is not accurate enough." The old man said with a rumbling laugh. "Actually, I am me. I am like you, a life in another world. In that world, all houses have life."

Yu Qing felt as if he had heard the Arabian Nights, and said strangely: "A house with life..."

The old house continued: "Yes. In our world, every tree, every time, will produce a house with a flower, bear a house fruit, and finally harvest a seed. After the seed is watered, it will germinate and grow into a house The way of watering is different, and the house that grows is also different. I have an older brother who is the tallest tree house in our world. But my little sister is only as small as a jasmine flower because she is watered by a small person up.

"But she is very happy. The villain loves her very much and has devoted her whole life to her. She is also very lucky. In our world, the villain has a very long life and can live for a long time. You know, a house where no one lives in will We grow old very fast! So we have to keep looking for tenants to keep ourselves alive. However, it is really not easy to find suitable tenants in your world..."

As the old man talked, he coughed violently.

That sound, that vibration, Yu Qing was really afraid that it would cough herself up.

He listened to the old house's intermittent narration, and he probably understood.

The seeds of the old house fell into this world for some reason, and happened to be picked up by the ancestors of the Yu family.So the Yu family built a house overnight, shocking everyone.

This secret is probably only known to the ancestor who watered the seeds back then.But planting a house or something is really unimaginable, so he has been tight-lipped, and he hasn't mentioned it to future generations...

After the old man coughed, he asked cautiously, "Do you want to live in?"

Yu Qing looked at the man in blue at the door: "Is this also a tenant?"

Lao Zhai explained: "No, he is from your world. We have a distant relative. He is the kind of distant relative who won't marry a house."

The man in the green shirt: "..."

Distant relatives who don't know how to marry...?

Yu Qing pondered for a while and said, "Is he also a tree?"

Lao Zhai said happily: "Yes, he is my neighbor."

Yu Qing: "..."

Neighbor...so this is the camphor tree at the door?Dryad? !

Lao Zhai asked eagerly again: "Are you really not considering living here? You can ask for anything!"

Yu Qing smiled and said, "Of course, this is my house..."

The old house immediately let out another earth-shattering laugh. "Hohohoho! That's great!"

Yu Qing saw a lot of dust being shaken off outside the door, and said again: "But you have to bear the itch, I have to clean the dust on your body."

"Don't worry." Lao Zhai said, "I can blow all the dust away when I sneeze! You go out for a while, hide behind the camphor tree, and come in after I finish sneezing."

"??" Even though he didn't quite understand, Yu Qing did as he did.

586 complained: "Host, are you sure you want to live in this haunted house?"

Yu Qing poked his head from behind the camphor tree to see how the old house was going to sneeze, and corrected him: "It's not a haunted house, at most it's a house monster."

The next moment, he felt a strange wind blowing from behind.

586 reminded quietly again: "Host, the dryad is behind you."

"Yeah." Yu Qing ignored it.

The strange wind rushed into the old house, and after a while, there was an earth-shattering sneeze, the doors and windows of the old house were suddenly blown open by the wind, and the dust flew out.

The dust wandered all over the sky, but did not fly far away, as if driven by something, they all fell under the camphor tree.

Yu Qing turned her head subconsciously, and saw the hand that the camphor tree spirit put down quickly.

"Fertilize, don't waste it." The dryad in the green shirt said blankly.

Yu Qing: "..." Fertilize yourself, this camphor tree is fine.

"Okay. Come in and have a look, are you satisfied?" Lao Zhai greeted with a smile.

After Yu Qing walked out of the camphor tree, he found that the old house had indeed been completely renewed.The dots of light shining through the gaps in the leaves sprinkled on the antique house, it looks like a flash effect has been added.

Push open the door and everything is spotless and like new!

"Is this okay?" Lao Zhaixiao asked carefully, seeing Yu Qing in a daze, he said again, "If it's not suitable, I can change it!"

Yu Qing thought about it. "There is a bathroom missing in the room, the toilet, do you mind if I decorate it on you?"

"No need! I can change it myself!" Lao Zhai said immediately.

Yu Qing was curious, when the room suddenly shook, making creaking and stretching sounds, thumping sounds, and the crisp sound of bones stretching.

Immediately afterwards, the wooden board fell quickly, separating the bathroom at an extremely fast speed.There was a "poof" in the center of the ceiling, and a flower bud stretched out, blooming and shining at a speed visible to the naked eye.Surrounded by blowing bubbles one after another, several smaller flower buds popped up.A new branch grew by the head of the bed, sprouted, and turned on the light.

Yu Qing was stunned.

"how did you do that?!"

"It's just the sunlight saved during the day, and the water is pumped up from the ground. Our tree house has its own filtration system, so you can drink it without worry." The old house said, and the vine that seemed to be a faucet on the sink actively stretched out. He came over and filled a glass of water on the table.

Yu Qing took a sip, it was really sweet!This taste was unlike any water he had ever drank!Even the mountain spring in the village does not have such a fresh feeling of refreshing the heart and lungs.

"How is it?" Lao Zhai held his breath to watch him drink, and asked in a low voice, as if he was afraid that he would not like it.

"It's delicious." Yu Qing resisted the urge to have another drink, and said, "If I let more people live in and charge them a certain fee, do you mind?"

Although it was his own house, he felt that it would be better to seek advice from the old house if he wanted to open a hotel.

"Hmm..." Lao Zhai seemed to be in deep thought.

"It's okay if you don't like it." Yu Qing said relaxedly. He originally returned to his hometown to take care of his health, and he didn't think that he had to do this.

"No, that's not the problem. It's..." Lao Zhai said worriedly, "I'm afraid no one would want to come in and live in it. It's not like I didn't attract guests in the past, but... they were all scared away as soon as they approached."

Yu Qing thought for a while about the ghostly appearance of the old house before, and it is not surprising that it scares people away, so he comforted him: "You are very clean and beautiful now, and many people like a house like yours..."

"Hey, you don't understand..." Lao Zhai seemed very unconfident.

"It's okay, let's take our time." Yu Qing said.

The old house then forgot about the bad past, and said happily: "Then you don't leave."

Yu Qing thought about her body, it won't get better in a while, so she said, "Of course."

The old house laughed again.

Yu Qing then decided to drive the car over immediately and live in the old house from tonight.

At the gate of Liu's house, the second aunt was chatting with an old man. Seeing him, she enthusiastically said: "Xiao Yu is back, the room has been cleaned up for you, what do you want to eat tonight?"

Yu Qing said: "No need, Auntie, I cleaned the old house at home, and I will live there from now on."

Second Aunt Liu was surprised: "Do you really want to live in?"

The old man tentatively asked: "Did you encounter any strange things?"

Second Aunt Liu introduced: "This is Uncle Li, from the top of the river. Do you remember that Uncle Li helped build the stove in your house?"

Yu Qing remembered, this is also his neighbor, next to the old house, upstream of the small river.It's just that the land next door seems to be deserted, and two high walls have been erected to separate it, as if I'm afraid that something will get through, let alone see people.

Yu Qing nodded and asked, "What's so strange?"

"It's nothing, it's just that there are strange things coming and going..." Uncle Li hesitated to say anything.

On the contrary, Second Aunt Liu said anxiously: "Hey, it's haunted! Xiaoyu, you didn't know that you went out since you were a child. There was always a woman with disheveled hair standing at the door waving at the house, but when we got closer, there was nothing there. You said Isn’t it evil? You came back because you were in poor health, be careful to be offended by evil spirits. You’d better live at my aunt’s house, my aunt has everything here.”

Yu Qing thanked her for her kindness, and gave them the gifts they brought back, and said by the way: "Does Aunt know where I can buy chicken seedlings, duck seedlings and vegetable seeds?"

Although he doesn't have the ability to farm, it is still possible to grow some vegetables in the yard and raise some chickens and ducks, just to pass the time.

Second Aunt Liu immediately said: "What else can I buy, Auntie has it here! Take whatever you want!"

So Yu Qing was inexplicably stuffed with a bunch of fruits and vegetables, and a sling of bacon back.As for the chicken and duck seeds, the second aunt said that the new cubs in the family will soon hatch in a few days, and they will send them to him together.

Yu Qing drove the car back to the old house and parked, unloaded the things, and rested for a while, before realizing that cooking is not an easy task.There was no stove in the old house, and he had no pots or kitchen utensils.So it's useless to have ingredients, I probably want instant noodles tonight.

He was thinking of going out to borrow some hot water, but at dusk, someone was hiding by the courtyard gate.

"Who?" Yu Qing walked over to take a look, and found that it was an acquaintance.

The man seemed to be hesitating. Hearing his voice, he was so frightened that he almost fell down, but when he saw the man clearly, he quickly patted his chest, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "It's Xiao Yu, you scared me to death."

"What's the matter with Second Uncle?" Yu Qing wondered.

"Oh, it's not... Your aunt said that you just came back and it's inconvenient to cook, so she cooked something for you and brought it here." Uncle Liu passed the bamboo basket and said quickly: "Eat it while it's hot, I'll serve it first." gone!"

Before Yu Qing had time to thank him, he ran away without a trace.

Second Uncle Liu walked home quickly, muttering nervously as he walked: "Old man of the Yu family, I was talking nonsense during the day, and now I'm delivering food to your grandson, so don't blame me for pestering me, don't come back to me!" Home……"

Yu Qing took the vegetables into the house, put away the instant noodles, and thought to himself that at least he had to clean up the kitchen at home tomorrow, so he couldn't eat other people's meals every day.

He wanted to ask the man in green shirt to eat together, but there was no one around, so he asked the old man, "Do you want to eat?"

Since the house is also a kind of life, it must be eaten.

"Hey, our tree house only needs sunshine, land and water." The old man said proudly. "Of course, sometimes we smoke some smoke too."

After finishing speaking, he made a gasping sound, and seemed to take a deep breath, and commented: "It smells so good! The food made by this family smells very good!"

Yu Qing smiled and started eating.Aunt Liu's craftsmanship is really good, and the food cooked with firewood really has a special flavor as the old house said.The fragrance of the food is mixed with the faint smell of burning dry firewood. That smell makes people feel that the days are like clouds floating in the sky, which is very slow and comfortable.

By the time he finished eating, it was getting dark.In the living room on the first floor of the wooden house, a few small lights popped out again, illuminating the surroundings very warmly.

Yu Qing put the things in order, took the pillow from the car, and used it as a pillow.As for the bed, at some point, the old house had already added a mat, and said that it would be fine for Yu Qing to be softer.

Yu Qing was about to take a bath, when someone behind him suddenly said, "The other person on your body, who is it?"

He looked back and found that it was camphor tree spirit.

Where is the other person in him? ...Is it the system you are talking about?

"A friend." Yu Qing said.

586 was surprised: "Host, he can find me?"

"Are you really a friend?" Zhang Shu doubted, and said again: "If you need exorcism or something, call me at any time, I am a good person, and I am not afraid of these little ghosts."

586:"……"

Yu Qing entered the bathroom, and found that it was made of white wood grain, with a sink, a shower, and a mirror. It was quite complete.The water temperature can vary from hot to cold.The hot water is warm, warm and has a sun-baked taste.

Just as he took off his shirt, he hesitated and said, "Old house?"

"Huh?"

"While I was taking a shower you..."

"Hohohoho..." Lao Zhai suddenly understood and laughed again, "Don't worry, my senses are different from yours. People in this world are just a ball of light in my eyes. Of course, even if there is only light, I won't peek either."

Feeling relieved, Yu Qing pressed the switch of the shower to start washing, then said embarrassedly: "Then can you speak softly?"

He was actually quite worried.The old house sneezed loudly today, and laughed out loud at every turn. If the neighbors on both sides heard this, they would be quite frightened...

The old house laughed and said: "They can't hear it. You are the second human being who can hear me."

"First, is it my ancestor?"

"Correct."

Yu Qing was finally completely relieved.

He was really tired after traveling all day.After taking a shower, I immediately went to bed and fell asleep.

The night in the country is not quiet at all, the sound of frogs comes from the river, and crickets sing outside the window.But Yu Qing didn't feel noisy at all, these sounds were like a lullaby, making him fall asleep in minutes.

The small light bulbs in the room also gradually dimmed, and finally went out completely.

In the darkness, Zhang Shu in a green shirt appeared in the room, looked at the sleeping person, and said indifferently, "This person is not in good health, and he won't live for long."

"Hush..." Lao Zhai stretched out a branch silently, covered the blanket that fell around Yu Qing, looked at his faint light, and whispered: "It will get better."
