"I know what time every household here takes out the garbage." Uncle Yan said with a smile, "But don't worry, the security here is very good."

In old housing estates like this where only the poor and elderly live, even the young and Dangerous don't bother to come because there is absolutely no money to be had here.

Uncle Yan took out another key and unlocked the wooden door inside.

Then he took half a step back and knocked on the door three times.

As if he was afraid that Su Yi would think he was superstitious and old-fashioned, he turned back to Su Yi and smiled "hehe" sheepishly, then turned his head and opened the door.

Squeak...

The heart-wrenching sound sounded again, and the moment the door opened, the dust in the crack of the door "swished" down.

Uncle Yan hurriedly brushed his thin hair with his hands.

Su Yi stood behind Uncle Yan. He clearly noticed that the moment the door opened, Uncle Yan's body was tense, his body turned sideways, and his feet were in a "T" position.

This is a physical sign to be ready to escape at any time.

There was no abnormality such as a strong wind blowing in my face or a freezing cold. Nothing happened.

Uncle Yan's eyes were alert, and he stood outside the door and scanned the situation in the room.

Su Yi was a head and a half taller than Uncle Yan. Looking from his angle, he happened to see a large piece of paint peeling off the wall diagonally opposite the door, revealing the green-brown brick wall inside.

Judging from the shape, it looks like an eyebrow raised in anger.

There is a single sofa in the corner whose original color can no longer be seen, and a dark red round dining table stands next to it.

Dim light poured into the room from the opposite balcony, and the wall beside the balcony was covered with dried ivy.

On the roof, a ceiling fan covered with cobwebs swayed slightly, and large and small patches of yellow-brown water stains could be seen everywhere on the mottled ceiling.

Uncle Yan seemed to confirm that it was safe. He breathed a sigh of relief and took a tentative step into the room. He paused for a moment before continuing to walk inside.

"It's okay, it's okay, come in!" He looked around, smiled and turned around to take the apple from the wooden box Su Yi was holding.

"This room is nice, with big space and good light. The wind blows in and it's very cool." Uncle Yan said to Su Yi with a smile.

Su Yi walked in shortly after.

The house is divided into two rooms, an inner one and an outer one. The outer room looks like more than 20 square meters, except for the single sofa that Su Yi just saw. A standing dining table, two small wooden chairs and a small square table are placed under the window on the balcony partition wall.

In the corner to the right of the door, there is a shabby large wardrobe standing alone. It was originally supposed to be wood color, but it was stained into mottled brown by unknown stains.

Otherwise, there was nothing else in the room, so the house looked empty.

The corner behind the door was next to the inner door. Su Yi walked in and took a look. There was a wooden bed without a bedside and a bedside table with a missing leg.

Separated from the balcony by the wall is the bathroom, which is very small. Except for a toilet and a small sink, there is no room for anything in it.

When Su Yi came out of the inner room, he saw that Uncle Yan had lit six incense sticks.

Seeing Su Yi come out, he smiled and handed Su Yi three sticks of incense and said: "As the saying goes, when entering a house, you have to call someone, and when entering a temple, you have to worship the god. This is a rule and cannot be missed. Come, worship."

Su Yi did not refuse and took the incense.

Uncle Yan didn't wait for Su Yi's reaction, he went to worship in all directions and muttered something.

"Calm down, everyone, don't make trouble, don't make trouble...it's okay, it's okay..."

He bowed in all directions, put incense on the apple, and placed the apple on the balcony window sill.

"Jing Ruzai!" He bowed respectfully and solemnly one last time.

Respect God as if He is present, worship God as if God is present.

Su Yi held the incense and looked around, walked to the closet, and inserted the incense into the crack of the closet door.

Seeing Uncle Yan coming out, he took out a hundred yuan from his coat pocket and handed it to Uncle Yan.

"Uncle Yan, thank you very much."

Uncle Yan was stunned for a moment, rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said, "Isn't this necessary?"

"Yes." Su Yi said, "I will bother you again in the future."

"Uh..." Uncle Yan smiled and took the money, "I just opened the door, why are you so polite?"

Without waiting for Su Yi to reply, he changed the subject and stuffed the money into his trouser pocket.

"By the way, I've seen a lot of celebrities who have walked out of here. But this is the first time I've seen celebrities come back to live here, hahaha..." Uncle Yan said with a smile, "Most of the people living here are old people. , we are all old neighbors for decades, we all know the ins and outs and are very familiar with each other.”

"If I want to buy bedding and daily necessities, where should I go?" Su Yi asked.

"Go downstairs, turn left after exiting the patio, and you'll reach the front alley." Uncle Yan said, "There are grocery stores, fabric and clothing stores, shoe repair shops, tea restaurants, barbecued pork and braised meat, bruises and injuries, and shrouds and wreaths. The coffin shop sells everything. If you want to buy something, that’s the right place to go.”

"If you want to mend laundry, ask Aunt Mei diagonally across the street; if you want to move things up or down, ask Kuiliwei on the 17th floor; if you want to repair electricity or water, ask Ayao on the 30th floor; if you have any questions and you don't know who to talk to, just come here. Look for me." Uncle Yan said with a smile, "Anyway, don't be afraid if you encounter any problems here. We are all neighbors who take care of each other and are very friendly."

Su Yi nodded: "I understand, thank you Uncle Yan."

"Okay, let's clean up first. I won't disturb you anymore." Uncle Yan said goodbye with a smile.

Su Yi walked him to the door. Uncle Yan was about to leave, but after a slight hesitation he turned around and said, "The third house on the left from here is Ayou's house. He used to be a Taoist priest and was quite capable. After all, your house is It’s been many years since anyone has lived there, so why not go to Ayou and ask for Zhang Fu? Believe it or not, it’s a good idea for good luck.”

"Okay, I will go find him." Su Yi accepted Uncle Yan's suggestion.

Ayou is the master of Maoshan magic who lives in seclusion here. Even if Uncle Yan doesn't tell him, Su Yi will still find a way to get close to him.

Now I have a suitable excuse.

Seeing that Su Yi did not reject his words, Uncle Yan couldn't help but smile with relief, and said enthusiastically: "If he is not at home, you can go to the tea restaurant in the front alley to find him. His fried glutinous rice is excellent. "

When Uncle Yan left, he closed the door for Su Yi very thoughtfully.

Su Yi was suddenly the only one left in the house.

Quiet.

So quiet that you can hear your own breathing.

Even the heartbeat.

Su Yi looked around, his heart beating faster.

He felt cold in his arms and thighs, and goosebumps were evident.

He wasn't sure if it was because he was afraid or something else.

He looked around and saw nothing unusual.

Only the fan overhead seemed to be spinning slowly.

But when Su Yi looked over, he found that it had not turned around.

Su Yi went to the balcony and opened the window. The cold wind blew in, and the musty smell in the room was instantly diluted.

Su Yi took a deep breath, turned around, scanned the room, and murmured: "No taboos, avoid all evil! No taboos, avoid all evil..."

After reading it a dozen times in a row, his heartbeat gradually calmed down.

The cold wind blew the dry leaves of the ivy to the ground. When Su Yi stepped out of the balcony, there was a "creep" sound under his feet.

A whimpering sound suddenly came from inside, which made Su Yi's heart tighten instantly, and his heart beat unsatisfactorily again.

It's really disappointing.

Su Yi felt a little ashamed. He was considered a big figure and a great master of martial arts, but he would be afraid of a ghost he hadn't seen yet.

Isn’t this too outrageous?

Mudd!

"woo woo woo woo……"

The sound in the back room seemed louder.

It sounded like the sound was caused by wind blowing into the pipes. Su Yi closed the balcony window, and the sound disappeared immediately.

Su Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked up and saw that the ceiling fan had started spinning again.

Squeak!

The large closet door in the left corner suddenly opened a crack, and the three incense sticks Su Yi had inserted in it suddenly fell to the ground and broke into several pieces.

Depend on!

Su Yi's heart beat again.

Is this normal or abnormal?

He felt his heart go cold.

He hurriedly touched the back of his head three times with his hand and hurriedly recited "There are no taboos and all evils should be avoided" several times.

Then I felt a little better again.

He let out a long breath.

Decided to pack my luggage first.

He opened the suitcase and took out the contents, but found that he had nothing to pack.

The suitcase is full of costumes that Qian Xiaohao wore when he was an actor.

A set of costumes for a Qing Dynasty official, this is the zombie suit he wore when pretending to be a zombie.

A Taoist priest's uniform, the clothes he wore when he was the leading actor.

There is also a set of armor that he wore for the first time when he collaborated with the famous Jet Lee to play the villain Dong Tianbao.

These costumes are Qian Xiaohao's most precious memories.

Except for these costumes, there are all white cloths under the box, large and small.

What are these white cloths used for?

It was prepared by Qian Xiaohao for himself to decorate the mourning hall.

His wife and children died tragically, his parents died early, and he was all alone. He knew that if he died, there would be no one to collect his body.

Therefore, he found an old house for himself and planned to decorate the funeral hall for himself.

Under the white cloth was a bundle of thick hemp rope, which he planned to use to hang himself.

Su Yi didn't plan to hang himself now, so he put everything in intact, zipped up the suitcase, and placed it against the wall.

He doesn't plan to take out any of the things in it for the time being.

Ding dong…

Ding dong…

Ding dong…

Just when Su Yi was about to take further action, the sound of dripping water suddenly came from the bathroom in the back room.

Su Yi was instantly alert and listened for a while.

The dripping sound was not too rapid, but it continued.

Su Yi was silent for a moment and did not go in to check. He continued to look through his luggage.

He opened the wooden box he had been holding. The wooden box was filled with photos of him and various big stars.

In the photo, Qian Xiaohao is smiling brightly. This is his most glorious moment.

In addition, there is also the white cloth bag he always carries, which is full of props he used when filming movies.

A mahogany sword, but actually made of poplar wood.

A red copper compass, already somewhat oxidized, and the words and patterns on it were completely made up.

There was also a simulated gun, a large unedged knife, and an ink fountain stained with red ink.

These things all represent the value and significance of Qian Xiaohao's existence in this world, so he brought them here to commit suicide.

In addition, there is a fake watch drawn with pencil on Su Yi's wrist.

The pattern on the watch has become very blurry and tarnished, but it has never been wiped off or washed away.

This was drawn by Qian Xiaohao's son during his lifetime. Qian Xiaohao has been reluctant to erase it. He even planned to wear this watch on the road.

When Su Yi looked at this watch, he suddenly felt a chill on his back.

He seemed to feel something sticking to his back.

Su Yi jumped up like an electric shock and shook it off a few times. As a result, not only did his body not become lighter, but the feeling of carrying something on his back became more obvious.

"Fuck!" Su Yi's expression changed, and he opened the door and rushed out without thinking.

He didn't know if it was an illusion or what, but the moment he stepped out of the door, he felt his body suddenly lighten.

A woman with disheveled hair outside the door stumbled backwards and hit the wall, which also startled Su Yi.

He was so nervous just now that he didn't realize that there was a person standing outside his door!

The woman was wearing a white dress with messy hair. She leaned against the wall and gasped, looking at Su Yi in horror.

"Who are you looking for?" Su Yi asked, suppressing his heart palpitations.

The woman didn't answer and avoided looking, but tentatively stretched her neck, trying to get around Su Yi's body to see what was going on in the house.

As a result, after just one glance, she immediately trembled all over, turned pale, her lips trembled, and big tears fell down instantly.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry to bother you...Gong Xi Fa Cai, I don't want the red envelope, no, don't come to me..." She held her head, not daring to look at it again, trembling and whimpering incoherently, and shaking her legs. He swayed and staggered to the side, holding on to the wall. His steps were messy, as if he wanted to escape, but his legs weakened with every step he took, and he couldn't get up quickly.

Su Yi watched the woman go away, feeling his scalp numb.

He guessed the identity of this woman. She should be the mother of the albino child he met in the elevator before. She was also the original owner of 2442.

According to the original plot, this woman, like her child, seems to have yin and yang eyes and can see things that ordinary people cannot.

So what did she see in the room behind her?

Buzz buzz...

Su Yi watched the woman stagger out of the corridor, and suddenly heard a strange sound coming from the room behind her.

Like the wind in the valley.

It was like someone was crying quietly.

"Mad!" Su Yi cursed and closed the door directly.

boom!

All sounds suddenly stopped.

Only his own heartbeat was beating very fast.

Su Yi let out a long breath.

Without hesitation, he strode away from his room and towards the elevator.
