Chapter 112 Bullying the weak and fearing the strong
"About ten years ago, or maybe a few decades ago? It's been so long I can't remember." Huazhi lit another cigarette. Through the thin smoke, her eyes were a little blurry. "Back then, this house woke up once."
"A lot of people died."
Huazhi shook her head. Even she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart when she thought of that time.
"At first, no one knew how those people died. All they knew was that every few days, someone would disappear for no apparent reason, and by the time they were found, they were already dead."
"What's strange is the way those people died. There wasn't a single scratch on their bodies. Even though they were dead, their eyes were still wide open, as if they were terrified."
"During that time, the entire city was in a state of panic. Plus, there was a war going on outside, and there was no telling when it would reach here. People died or fled. Within three to five years, the once prosperous city became increasingly desolate. In the end, only the small Qijia Village remained."
"Although I was already awake at that time, I could do nothing. I was just a lonely soul wandering in the human world. If it weren't for the obsession with revenge, I might have dissipated long ago."
"Later, a very powerful gentleman came to Qijia Village. I don't know what method he used, but the awakened Yin residence was sealed again. There has been no movement for many years. I took advantage of it and opened a small shop here with the power of the seal."
Huazhi said this as she carefully looked at every brick and tile in the house.
Although so many years have passed, she no longer has the desire for revenge and only wants to leave this place, but after such a long period of loneliness with only this store to accompany her, she has already developed some feelings for it.
She still couldn't bear to do it.
Shi Yu was silent for a moment before he asked, "You mean, my friend was dragged into the Yin residence after he woke up?"
"Before that powerful gentleman arrived, people were constantly being dragged into the house. After he arrived, he rescued two people. According to those two people, they were walking down the street when they suddenly opened their eyes and became members of the Yin family."
"One became the servant of the young Sixth Master of the Yin family who died early, and the other, who is clearly a man, became one of the concubines of the eldest master of the Yin family after waking up."
Huazhi frowned slightly, "I guess your friend is in the same situation, but I don't know why you weren't pulled in."
Shi Yu didn't find this strange. If the man in that house really dragged her in without knowing the consequences, then things would be much simpler.
"But that's true."
Before Shi Yu could answer, Hua Zhi burst out laughing, "I think you are much more capable than that gentleman before. I think that man is also a bully who only cares about the weak and afraid of the strong. He wouldn't dare to do that."
"This is not important." Shi Yu held the fan and looked at it for a while. It felt warm and cool to the touch. Even if this thing did not have any special abilities, the jade used to make the fan handle alone was a rare and fine product.
As for what material the fan was made of, even Shi Yu couldn't tell for a moment.
There is only one thing, this thing is unlikely to be a folk thing, it is most likely from the palace.
He returned the fan to Huazhi, "So now how do I get in?"
"I'm afraid it won't work today. We can only wait until tomorrow." Huazhi fanned herself a few times. "I'll take you in around the time your friend disappeared. Take this."
The fan returned to Shi Yu's hand. Hua Zhi stared at it for a long time and said, "I will let you go in as me. This will also make it easier for you to find my body."
"But I must remind you that what has happened cannot be changed. If you haven't found a way to seal the house by the day I die, I'm afraid you'll never be able to get out."
After Huazhi finished speaking, Shiyu's vision became blurred. When the trance passed, he suddenly heard Chang Shiyin's somewhat surprised shout.
"Sister Shi? When did you come back? I was here the whole time, but I didn't see you."
The sky, which was almost pitch black, became bright again, and the bright sun was still hanging in the sky.
Chang Shiyin looked behind Shi Yu and became a little nervous, "Where's my dad?"
"Something happened?" This was what Yuan Ye said.
Shi Yu looked at Chang Shiyin, opened his mouth, and then felt that one or two sentences were not clear, "Let's go in and talk."
This B&B is completely different from the one Shi Yu saw just now. Although it also has small bridges and flowing water, and the environment looks great, modern elements are also very obvious.
As soon as you enter the door, you can see a table of people eating, and the food is quite good.
"These people are guests of the B&B, and that one is the owner."
While Yuan Ye was speaking, Hua Zhi nodded slightly in Shi Yu's direction, but did not intend to go forward to speak. Shi Yu took a deep breath and said, "Let's talk inside."
After finally explaining the whole story, Chang Shiyin didn't say much. He just asked with a trembling voice, "My dad will be fine, right?"
"It's hard to say." Shi Yu's tone was not relaxed. "But according to Huazhi, the earliest a person who was dragged into a graveyard would be found was three days later."
"Today is only the first day. Old Chang has some skills. He is definitely not worse than ordinary people."
"But what if?"
Chang Shiyin tried hard to control his emotions.
He knew that this incident wasn't caused by Shi Yu, but the worry in his heart still made him a little impatient. "That female ghost also said that the Yin house that broke through the seal again this time is more powerful than it was decades ago. What if my father can't even make it through the first day, then...what should I do then?"
"Don't worry, Sister Shi won't leave Lao Chang alone. Didn't the boss also say that Sister Shi will be sent to jail tomorrow? As long as Sister Shi is in jail, Lao Chang will be fine."
Yuan Ye also frowned.
Although Shi Yu didn't say much, and there was not even much nervousness in his expression, he could probably feel that Shi Yu blamed himself more than anyone else.
She blamed herself for not thinking of this special situation before coming here and not taking any precautions in advance.
"In the final analysis, it's because I was too arrogant. Don't worry, even if something happens to Old Chang, I can bring him back even if I chase him to the underworld. I, Shi Yu, will not let him die. Even if the King of Hell himself comes, he can't take his soul away."
After saying this, Shi Yu entered the next room, which was the room that Chang Shiyin and the others had booked in advance.
Whenever we encountered any difficult situations in the past, Lao Chang was always there to offer some advice.
This little old man may look insignificant, but he plays a huge role for Shi Yu. Now that he is no longer around, Shi Yu realizes that he is not as open-minded as he originally thought.
Yuan Ye looked at Chang Shiyin helplessly, "Don't blame yourself. Sister Shi won't blame you. She's no less worried about Old Chang than you are."
