"Shangxiu, this is the last house we can see today."

The sun was scorching hot. Xiao Song wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt his mouth was dry.

Although he was a Qi Refining accomplished monk, he had not yet reached the point where he was immune to the cold and heat. He accompanied the guests beside him and traveled half of the fairy city. At this time, he felt exhausted both physically and mentally.

However, as a new dental professional in the dental shop, Xiao Song gritted his teeth and insisted on winning this business.

"If the superior is not satisfied, I will find some suitable sets for you tomorrow!"

Not satisfied?

In fact, Wang Chen is quite satisfied with the house we just viewed.

Although the area is not large, it has a courtyard and a quiet room, and is a single-family house in a good location. Spiritual Qi is quite sufficient.

The problem is that the rent for such a house is very expensive.

Wang Chen, which was so expensive that it once owned tens of millions of spiritual stones, also felt painful. After calculating his daily expenses, he still didn't make up his mind to risk it all.

In addition, the landlord is very difficult to talk to. He is not willing to lose even one spiritual stone. He also pretends that "I don't have to worry about renting my house." He condescendingly looks down on Wang Chen, a "poor guy" who "wants to rent a good house but doesn't have any spiritual stones."

This makes people very unhappy.

What is helpless is that the good house in Yongle Immortal City is really affordable, and the rent is so expensive!

"Thank you for your hard work."

But Wang Chen has no problem with Yaren who works hard to accompany him to look at houses and look for houses.

There was even a hint of apology.

"If it really doesn't happen, forget it."

With that said, Wang Chen stuffed a few spiritual stones into Xiao Song: "You can accept this hard work."

Holding the spirit stone in his hand, Xiao Song was stunned for a moment, then looked around and took Wang Chen aside.

He lowered his voice and said, "Shangxiu, my uncle's family has a house that is similar to this house, but it has not been rented out. The rent is very cheap."

Wang Chen understood immediately. "What's the problem?"

Xiao Song smiled bitterly and said, "That's a weird house."

"A weird house?"

Wang Chen This is the first time I heard this term.

Xiao Song had to explain it a bit.

The so-called weird house refers to a house where weird things often happen, and usually no one wants to live in it.

It's a haunted house!

Wang Chen was even more puzzled. "Since something strange has happened, why didn't you report it to Constabulary Office?"

Demon Suppression Department, who he just joined, does this job!

What a coincidence.

However, Xiao Song's answer made Wang Chen dumbfounded.

It turns out that unless a life is caused or the safety of the neighborhood is affected, such a situation will be reported to Constabulary Office, and Constabulary Office will send someone to deal with it, which will require a high fee.

The patrol department is a large yamen in the fairy city. Is it possible for an ordinary person to come and go at a moment's notice with a public official?

Xiao Song's uncle was firstly reluctant to bear the expense, and secondly, he was worried that Constabulary Office might not be able to solve it even if he came.

But if you invite people, you still have to pay for the spirit stones!

"No way?"

Wang Chen It feels unbelievable - it's just a weird house, and Constabulary Office can't solve it even if it sends people?

This is not his Previous Life world of technology. He has a blind spot for metaphysics. If he uses a spell to transcend Rebirth, can't he still get rid of unclean things?

It's possible!

In fact, similar strange houses are not isolated; Xiao Song knows of more than a dozen.

These strange houses are basically vacant or abandoned. Some people who do not believe in evil or rely on their own cultivation have moved in and moved out quickly, keeping secret of what happened during their stay.

In fact, Constabulary Office has also investigated some strange houses, but basically nothing happened.

The spooky house is not a haunted house, it only scares people but does not kill!

After understanding the situation, Wang Chen simply took Yaren to a nearby teahouse to rest. While drinking a pot of Spiritual Tea, he asked for more information to decide whether to go see that house.

In order to do Wang Chen's business, Xiao Song also knew and talked about everything.

It turned out that this house was used by his uncle to house his outhouse.

The other party is a kind Ji Brothel singer. Because she is charming and considerate, she is so favored by Xiao Song her uncle that she neglects his real wife.

But his dao companion was not a good person. His parents' family was quite powerful, so they immediately gathered a group of helpers to ransack the foreign house.

They caught the singer, blocked her magic power, stripped her naked and threw her into the street, whipped and humiliated her until the police came to intervene.

The singer was not dead at the time, but she hanged herself from a beam at home after she was rescued.

Later, many strange things happened in this house.

It was said that Evil Spirits caused trouble, but neither exorcism nor salvation had any effect.

Xiao Song's uncle has lost face and something like this happened again. It's really heartbreaking.

He originally wanted to sell the house, but the incident was too big and everyone knew it. Who is willing to spend a high price to buy an unlucky and weird house?

Xiao Song's uncle didn't want to sell it at a low price, so he entrusted Xiao Song to rent it out.

This person's abacus was very good. If someone rents it and lives in it for a few years without any problems, it will naturally be able to get rid of the reputation of being a weird house.

It would be easy to resell at the normal price.

As a result, it backfired and two tenants who were greedy for cheap were scared away!

"So you just want to rent it to me?"

Wang Chen smiled and said, "Do I look like I've been taken advantage of?"

"Young ones don't dare!"

Xiao Song hurriedly explained, "The little one just feels that his cultivation is unusual. He may have the ability to eliminate evil spirits and suppress evil spirits. He is not afraid of the weird house thing, so..."

Of course he had selfish motives for selling this strange house to Wang Chen, but he did not dare to deceive Wang Chen in any way.

"Let's go."

Wang Chen threw down a few spiritual stones, stood up and said, "Let's go take a look."

The other party has good eyesight. What he is not afraid of the most is Evil Spirits weird things. If the house is suitable, it is not impossible to buy it!

Xiao Song's uncle's house is not far away, and its location is better than the one Wang Chen had seen before.

Just because the house has been unoccupied for a long time, it is still very cold and filled with an uncomfortable smell on a hot day. The yard is full of fallen leaves and the room is full of dust.

Xiao Song was very embarrassed. "Shangxiu..."

Wang Chen raised his hand to interrupt him and asked directly, "I want to ask your uncle, is this house for sale?"

At normal prices, he couldn't afford this house.

But if it's a weird house, it's really possible to get it.

Wang Chen plans to try it.

After receiving the letter from Xiao Song, his uncle, the landlord, hurried over.

This high-level Purple Mansion monk has an elegant appearance, a graceful demeanor, and an air of renown.

It's a pity that he knows people well but doesn't know their hearts. His character is really not very good.

But Wang Chen is not a judge in the moral court and has no intention of judging the other party's fault.

He really wanted to buy this house.

The problem was that the other party's initial offer was very high, which made Wang Chen suspect that he had entered the wrong place! ——

The second update is sent.
