Chapter 1022 A Great House

After Ye Xiaoman finished speaking, Fang Yazi saw the man who looked mature and steady smile like a flower.

Ye Xiaoman said mysteriously to Fang Yazi, "But we eloped, so please keep it a secret for us in the rental registration book."

Fang Yazi's eyes lit up. These days, people's views on choosing a spouse are becoming more and more realistic, and it is rare to encounter such true love.

She quickly patted her chest and assured: "Don't worry."

Fang Yazi took the two of them to an empty house and opened the door with a key.

"What do you think of this house?"

“The location here is in the heart of the city, making it very convenient to go anywhere.”

Ye Xiaoman walked around the house inside and out. The house was very new and fully furnished. It was a good place to stay, but there was one flaw.

"Is there a house with farmland behind it? A larger nursery would be fine too."

Ye Xiaoman said with a smile: "My husband likes farming, and I want to rent him a piece of land to satisfy his craving."

Zhu Chuideng thought that if there was no one around, he would definitely hug Ye Xiaoman and kiss her. Why was she so lovable? Every word she said almost melted his ears.

Fang Yazi looked at Zhu Chuideng with some surprise. Why did he still want to live his old life now that he was with a rich woman? But it was a good thing for a man to be hardworking.

She smiled and said, "Zhu Fulang is truly blessed to be loved so much by his wife."

She immediately took off the bunch of keys from her waist and touched them one by one. There were small spiritual arrays engraved on the keys, and touching them would give her detailed information about the corresponding property.

Quickly, she shook her head.

"If you want a house with farmland, there's none in the city. You'll have to look for one in the suburbs."

"But the land in our Yanchou Province is famous for its good farming conditions. Nowadays, all the better houses in the suburbs have been rented out by alchemists."

"The remaining ordinary houses either don't have much land, or the land is barren and difficult to harvest. In any case, I don't recommend renting any of them."

Ye Xiaoman felt very sorry after hearing this. "Don't you even have a similar one? We can add some spirit stones here."

Fang Yazi took out an old key from the pile of keys.

"If I must say, there's a pretty good property left," she said awkwardly, "but I can't recommend it to you."

Ye Xiaoman asked curiously, "How do you say that?"

Fang Yazi said with a sad face, "That house is haunted."

Zhu Chuideng raised his eyebrows when he heard that. Ye Xiaoman couldn't help but burst out laughing. She nudged Zhu Chuideng with her elbow, thinking, "That's just right."

Which ghost dares to be presumptuous when seeing the Ghost Lord?

Ye Xiaoman said cheerfully, "Tell us about the house. We are both very interested."

Fang Yazi explained the situation in detail: "That house has been occupied by a hanged ghost for more than ten years. The ghost is very powerful, has a bad temper and loves to scare people. Even the monks we hired locally can't deal with it."

"Over the years, we've rented it out to some Jindan-stage cultivators and even Yuanying-stage cultivators at low prices. Each group of people claimed that they had high cultivation levels and didn't care about it, but they ended up being scared away by that ghost after just a few days."

Ye Xiaoman nodded: "So it's a nail house."

"Yes," Fang Yazi said helplessly, "We also submitted a report to the Chamber of Commerce headquarters, requesting that they send a capable person to exorcise the ghost, but it would cost a lot of money to hire an expert for a ghost of this level. The headquarters did the math and decided it wasn't cost-effective, so they put it on hold."

Ye Xiaoman rubbed her hands together and said, "To be honest, my husband and I have some skills in exorcising ghosts, and we want to rent this house."

Fang Yazi didn't quite believe it. She thought that the monks in the past were also so confident before they saw the hanged ghost, but in the end, they were all scared to death by the hanged ghost.

But the client insisted, and she couldn't stop him.

"That house is a large house with three entrances and three exits, and there are hundreds of acres of fertile land behind it. Because of its condition, our Chamber of Commerce will rent it out at a very low price."

"If you want to buy it, that's fine. It's also very cheap."

Fang Yazi took the iron abacus from her waist, clattered the beads, typed a number, and then took it in front of Ye Xiaoman.

Ye Xiaoman took a look and found that it was indeed a super bargain price.

She immediately made the decision, "I'll buy it."

Fang Yazi repeatedly reminded Ye Xiaoman that the down payment for buying a house is non-refundable, and then he took Ye Xiaoman to the suburbs to look at houses.

Ye Xiaoman and Zhu Chuideng followed Fang Yazi and boarded the flying carriage of the Huantian Chamber of Commerce. They arrived at their destination half an hour later.

As Fang Yazi said, it was indeed a very grand house.

The vermilion-painted gate with gold nails stands tall. The plaque with gold characters on a black background hanging high above the door lintel has not yet been inscribed, waiting for its new owner to give it a name. There is also a pair of majestic stone qilins on the left and right.

It has been abandoned for many years, with knee-high weeds at the entrance and the door covered in dust.

The entire house was shrouded in thick black fog, which showed how strong the ghostly aura was.

Fang Yazi's face was full of fear, and she tremblingly took out the amulet and gave it to Ye Xiaoman and Zhu Chuideng. Judging from her behavior, she must have been frightened by the weirdness inside.

Fortunately, the ghost inside would not kill the employees of Huantian Chamber of Commerce and cause trouble. Although Fang Yazi was afraid, he still pushed open the door with trembling hands.

Zhu Chuideng said, "I will go ahead, and you follow me."

Fang Yazi looked at Zhu Chuideng gratefully, thinking that he was indeed considerate, no wonder he was favored by the rich woman.

Inside the compound, Diaogui, who was entrenched here, was playing dice with his cronies.

The people who come and go with Diaogui are all local evil spirits. These evil spirits have colluded with each other to form a powerful force. They usually run rampant in the village and extort offerings. It’s hard to say how comfortable their lives are.

The ghost who was watching at the door came running in, and the black smoke rolled up a few fallen leaves.

"Boss, the people from the Huantian Chamber of Commerce are bringing people to look at the house again."

He slammed the dice onto the table with a strange and brutal look, "Who's here this time?"

Nigui reported: "A woman and a man, they seem to be of ordinary cultivation level."

He sneered strangely, "I've warned them several times, but they still haven't learned their lesson. This time I won't show mercy. My Ten Thousand Souls Banner still owes a few souls!"

"Come on, brothers, follow me to deal with them."

Then the ghost energy covered the sky and the sun, and amidst the flying sand and rocks, more than a dozen ghosts swept towards the door.

Fang Yazi hugged the door panel and was almost blown away by the strong wind. She shouted, "They are coming! We should leave quickly!"

The deafening howling of ghosts and wolves suddenly rolled before her eyes. Fang Yazi tried hard to open her eyes in the wind and sand, but saw Ye Xiaoman still standing in front of her with a smile.

Zhu Chuideng stood with his hands behind his back, the hem of his brown clothes not moving even a ripple in the wind, and his steady back seemed inexplicably majestic.

Fang Yazi was surprised. Could it be that these two guests really had some skills?
