After hanging up the phone, Cao Kun carefully checked the room but found no trace of Annabelle or the dark figure.

This eased his anxiety a little.

He was afraid that after killing Annabelle, he would be targeted by that ram.

It seems that there is no need to worry about this for the time being.

However, just to be on the safe side, it would be best to move away from here as soon as possible.

thump thump...

The door was pounded on, and an angry voice roared from outside: "Damn it, what are you doing in there? What have you done to my house? Open the door, now!"

Cao Kun opened the door and saw the fat landlord standing there, his face full of anger.

Without waiting for Cao Kun's invitation, he went straight inside and began inspecting the damage to the house.

Seeing the mess on the ground, with shattered windows covered in blood, the fat landlord's anger turned to surprise: "Damn, you killed someone here?"

Cao Kun: "Yes, we killed them, two of them."

The fat landlord was startled and looked around: "Where's the body?"

Cao Kun: "I ate it."

Fat House shuddered, and his face turned deathly pale.

Then he saw the ground littered with the carcasses of black crows.

He became angry again: "You dare to lie to me, you're finished."

Cao Kun handed over $5,000, which the chubby landlord quickly accepted: "I'll get someone to clean it up. The room next door is empty, you can move in there for now. Let me know if you need anything."

The room next door was the room where Big Brother Hei and Hei Nv used to live.

Cao Kun only glanced at it before leaving.

He already made a mess of his own room, but the one next door was even messier.

Even after so much time has passed, there's still an indescribable stench inside.

Cao Kun declined Old Ford's offer, packed up his useful belongings, and left the apartment.

After finding a decent hotel to stay in, Cao Kun called Yamashita Seiko and told her the hotel's address.

Around 8 p.m., Seiko Yamashita arrived at the hotel and said, "Master, I've looked at more than a dozen places today. I'll go see the rest tomorrow."

Cao Kun: "How's the situation?"

Seiko Yamashita: "There are a few places that look alright, but they're all in slums, or more accurately, in black neighborhoods. The atmosphere isn't as bad as our apartment, but it's still pretty good."

Cao Kun nodded.

This makes perfect sense.

The conditions in the slums were similar to the old apartment he used to live in.

Most of the people living there are Black.

With all sorts of people doing all sorts of things, it would be strange if there wasn't plenty of evil energy.

Cao Kun: "No rush, let's finish watching it tomorrow and then talk about it."

The next morning, Seiko Yamashita went out to look at houses again.

Around 3 p.m., Cao Kun received a call from Yamashita Seiko: "Master, I've found a very nice house. Would you like to come and take a look?"

It took the taxi more than 40 minutes to reach the place that the mountain saint had mentioned.

This place is quite remote; the nearest convenience store is three kilometers away, and the supermarket is more than ten kilometers away, making life extremely inconvenient.

The house isn't too luxurious, but it's big enough.

The building alone is over 200 square meters, and the three floors together cover more than 800 square meters.

This isn't even a garden.

Although it can't compare to Tom Cruise's mansion, this house is more than enough for an ordinary family, even three generations living together.

Upon seeing Cao Kun arrive, Sarah immediately came forward to greet him: "Mr. Cao, Miss Yamashita is looking at apartments inside."

Cao Kun nodded, stood outside, and looked around the house.

The house features a style that combines stone, wood, and glass, with a natural design aesthetic.

The surrounding scenery is also very nice. There is a mountain not far away and a river next to it, so you can go fishing if you have time.

This house must be a vacation villa built by a wealthy person, where they can stay for weekends and holidays.

Actually, style is not important to Cao Kun.

These can all be changed to his liking later.

The important thing is the evil energy.

Without even looking, Cao Kun could sense a strong, sinister aura simply by getting close.

The temperature around the house was noticeably several degrees lower than outside.

Cao Kun noticed several details.

Firstly, this house doesn't get any sunlight.

Secondly, the house may have been uninhabited for a long time, resulting in it being overgrown with weeds.

However, there wasn't a single mosquito or any other insect in those bushes.

This is clearly abnormal.

Everyone knows that the biggest problem with living on the first floor is the abundance of mosquitoes, especially in areas with dense vegetation.

But these things are nowhere to be found in this house.

"That's interesting." Cao Kun became interested.

He asked Sarah, "How many people have died in this house?"

Sarah's face paled, and she was somewhat taken aback.

The main point is that Cao Kun's tone when he asked this question showed no fear whatsoever, but rather a hint of anticipation.

It's as if the question isn't about how many people have died here, but rather how many homeowners have made a fortune here.

"This house was built in 1995, and in just four years, it has had seven owners."

Eighteen people died here.

Sarah's voice trailed off, and by the end, it was trembling slightly: "Mr. Cao, I advise you not to buy this house; it's too dangerous."

"Eighteen people died?" Cao Kun asked excitedly.

Sarah's face paled even more, and her gaze towards Cao Kun became somewhat strange.

She wondered if she had encountered a pervert.

Cao Kun: "Let's go in and take a look."

Sarah quickly shook her head: "I don't dare to go in, Mr. Cao. I suggest you don't go in either."

"Then you can wait outside." Cao Kun declined Sarah's offer and stepped into the courtyard.

Passing through the front garden, Cao Kun entered the house and sensed an even stronger, more sinister aura.

The eeriness here is even stronger than in the dilapidated apartment.

No wonder Seiko Yamashita was so excited on the phone.

Cao Kun noticed that the house was quite new, and the furnishings were nice; the first owner must have spent a lot of money.

That's true. It's only been four years since it was built, so it's not that old.

The house is basically equipped; after a quick cleaning and some household supplies, it's perfectly habitable.

"Master, you've arrived."

Seiko Yamashita emerged from the basement, her face beaming with joy: "Master, isn't this house nice?"

Cao Kun nodded and said, "Indeed, it's quite good."

The Holy Son of the Mountain: "The evil aura in this place is even stronger than that of my master's temple."

"I'll definitely improve much faster if I train here."

Cao Kun walked around the room and discovered something strange.

He asked the holy son at the foot of the mountain, "When you came in, did you see any ghosts?"

Seiko Yamashita: "No, we didn't find a single one."

Cao Kun was even more puzzled: "Sarah said that a total of eighteen people died here, but there was not a single ghost."

But the eerie atmosphere here is so strong; this is very unusual.
