Chapter 13 Gushan House

The nearest town at the foot of Qingyun Mountain is called Lingxi.

A trickling stream meanders through the entire town. The stream comes from the snow on the top of the Qingyun Mountains. The founder of the Qingwei Sect passed by the stream when he passed by and sighed, and it was so spiritual that it was called Lingxi.

Lingxi became a village and a town, and now it has developed into an important port and transit station city.

After walking in the dark for a long time, Dream Travel finally arrived at Lingxi before dawn.

The morning dew is heavy and the street lights have not yet been extinguished, but some street breakfast shops are already busy preparing to open their stores.

You Mengzhi wandered around the town for a few times, hesitating where to find a place to rent and settle down, so he walked slowly, randomly chose a direction, and entered a beautiful and elegant old city street:
'Gushancuo'

This street called Gushancuo is full of houses with southern characteristics.

The so-called house refers to a house in the Fujian language, usually a self-built square house.

Some families with stronger assets will directly spend a lot of money to build houses with dozens of floors. In the eyes of outsiders, they are self-built villas in rural areas that are considered tacky by rich people.

Gushan House may be an ancient house with a certain age. The floors are not high, but they are usually three to four-story independent houses. If it were not for the fact that the buildings here are quite old, the exterior walls are mottled and peeling, and they look a little desolate, even You can also say "little foreign-style building" against your will.

Every few dozen steps on this road, there is a small shrine standing at the junction of two houses. It is also connected to electricity and hung with red lanterns that never go out.

You may not feel anything awkward when passing by during the day, but at this time it is still dark, and the faint red light reflects on the golden sculptures inside the shrine, which is really weird.

It can only be said that it would be easier for someone who is less courageous to lose his temper.

You Mengzhi frowned slightly, thinking about the beliefs and customs of this area. His steps unconsciously became lighter and his footsteps unconsciously lowered.

I lowered my head and walked a few steps, almost tripping over the stairs. When I looked up, I was surprised to find a red paper stuck on the door of the house in front of me:
"The entire second floor of No. 45 Gushancuo is for rent. There is an air-conditioning and washing machine inside. The monthly rent is [-], and water and electricity are free."

You Mengzhi was surprised: "Two hundred!?"

What's the difference between this and giving it away for free? !

You Mengzhi waited for the sky to get bright again and looked around again. The more he looked, the more he felt that this place was feasible.

This house looks quite good overall. Although it is huddled at the end of half a street, it is close to the water on one side, close to the Hengyang Branch River, and the door faces west. According to Feng Shui, it is a good place to gather wealth.

The front of the house is three bays in size, and there is a grocery store on the first floor.

There were no lights on in the grocery store, and the scratching sound of the erhu could be heard intermittently in the dark store.

Not to mention the sound of nature, at least it is dumb and mocking.

"Is the rental place here?"

You Mengzhi leaned into the grocery store and waved it at the tip of his nose to dispel the vague and non-existent odor.

The sound of the erhu stopped for a moment.

A dark and thin shadow slowly stood up from the debris.

The sound of the cane hit the ground.

The sound of wooden canes echoed with the shuffling footsteps.

Perhaps due to the dimness of the room, the sound of the cane also hesitated and paused slightly. In just a few steps, it seemed to hit several obstacles in succession, stirring up a burst of smoke and dust, causing the figure to make several vague and sticky sounds. cough.

A hoarse, vague cough mixed with a damp, musty smell hit his face.You Mengzhi couldn't bear it anymore and stretched out his hand to press on the wall. In an instant, the lights in the grocery store were brightly lit.

The coughing became more violent, and a shriveled and thin old man coughed until he almost died. He kept tapping his cane on the ground, making a bang bang sound, and shouted curses in dialect mixed with Mandarin everywhere:

"Dead boy! Why are you turning on my light? You know who wants money?!"

The person who came here was in his fifties or sixties, but for some reason, he looked quite old.

"Anyway, you already have an old man in the store, so turning on another light is enough!"

You Mengzhi murmured in a low voice, regardless of whether the other party heard it or not. He quickly pointed to the conspicuous red paper at the door and changed the subject:

"Is this place for rent? Two hundred also includes water and electricity?"

The old man with white hair and beard was stunned for a second, his throat rolled a few times, and he coughed a few more times:

"It's very cheap here, but you have to be prepared."

"I know."

You Mengzhi acted very calmly.

Thinking about it with your belly button, you can tell that the price is far lower than the market price and there is something wrong with it.

But her excitement just now also came from this.

Because for her now, the monsters and monsters have to stand aside, and having no money is what really kills her.

The old man glanced at You Mengzhi up and down with his cloudy eyes, and seemed to still hesitate:
"I only rent here to grown men, not to girls."

“Girl dolls are bad”

You Meng put one hand on the old man's shoulder and took out a large number of keys from the first drawer on the counter with the other hand, then pulled the old man upstairs. She spoke very fast:
"It is not advisable to favor sons over daughters. It is just as good to have a boy or a girl. There is nothing wrong with it. I have been known to be very courageous since I was a child. I could jump from a mountain at the age of three, from a cliff at the age of seven, and open a lock with one hand at the age of ten. I The letters written by my senior brother to my crush were read out in a loop. At the age of 12, I could play three dance machines at the same time without losing a single note."

You Mengzhi went up to the second floor in one breath, then let go of the old man's shoulder, handed the key to the other man's hand, gestured to open the door, and concluded:
".The main theme is a person who is in trouble - calm and unhurried."

The old man grabbed the key, which was messy in the wind, and stared at You Meng with wide eyes for a while. Finally, he tremblingly found the key to the second floor, grinning and cursing:
"I've never seen such a shameless little kid like you. Come on, come on, I'm in trouble."

"Remember, you have to deposit three and one to pay the rent!"

You Mengzhi Hehe Zhile took the key to the second floor from the old man's hand, and listened to a few more instructions and chants, and she agreed to them one by one:

"I know, Mr. Wu, don't worry, I don't have any bad habits."

Wu Wenyun was still talking about remembering not to flush his hair directly into the sewer after washing his hair. Hearing this, his whole body got stuck:
"It seems I haven't told you, a little kid, that my surname is Wu?"

You Mengzhi smiled brightly:
"It's okay, I know."

When Wu Wenyun heard this, he glanced at You Mengzhi strangely. He seemed hesitant to speak, but he still stepped aside and let You Mengzhi go in and visit the house.

You Mengzhi didn't care. He looked around with his eyes, and finally landed on the stairs leading to the third floor. There was an iron door blocking the way. From the moment he entered the house, there was an almost non-existent smell. The smell came faintly from behind this iron gate.

You Mengzhi rolled his eyes and said with a smile to Mr. Wu:
".If you don't know, you can slowly understand it."
