Chapter 655: The Great Tang Dynasty. Drawing Talismans
The sun room has glass on three sides and a plastic panel on one side. The air temperature is about 60 degrees Celsius, the same as a sauna.
There was a bed in the middle of the room and no other furniture. It was very simple.
There was nothing to see, so the few people hurried back downstairs.
Lao Chu pointed to the woods in the east and asked what was behind them. It looked like a bunch of small hills.
The waiter looked in the direction she pointed, and his face immediately turned ugly. "Dear guest, please don't go to the woods in the east. It's haunted all the year round."
"ghost?"
"Well, there are a lot of garbage dumps and pits behind the woods over there." The waiter said evasively, "It is said that when the base was established, many people died and were thrown into the pits over there."
Chu An didn't believe it. He thought it was probably a rumor spread intentionally by someone who was involved in the ghost story and didn't want others to know.
"Aren't the people living over there scared?" asked Lao Chu.
"I'm scared, but it's good enough to be able to grab a house now. How can I choose where to live?" The waiter said with some envy, "If I can grab a house there, I will live there too. Besides, isn't there a small forest in between? I heard that the small forest is a barrier, and ghosts can only wander in the forest. As long as people don't go into the forest, everything will be fine."
Seeing that he still had a trace of conscience in his heart and had not turned gray, Chu An decided not to ask any more questions.
She called Lao Chu and Gu Ye aside and decided to rent here. In addition to the balcony, the sunroom also had a good view, thanks to the fact that there were no taller buildings in the outer city.
"I can put the water room in the sun, so the temperature is not a problem."
Lao Chu didn't say anything, and Gu Ye agreed.
After the three of them discussed, Lao Chu followed the waiter downstairs to check in. Chu An and Gu Ye decided to simply tidy up the house and tear up the talisman papers and stick them on the windows to block the view.
After a while, Lao Chu finished checking in and brought Aunt Zhang up with him when he came back. She volunteered to come up and help us clean the room.
Chu An asked about her physical condition. Aunt Zhang said that she was fine. Apart from suffering from heatstroke and a little hypoglycemia, she was already well.
"This room is not open to the public, so I didn't come to clean it. It's a bit dusty." Aunt Zhang said as she started to clean up.
Chu An took out a handful of candies from his pocket, about ten of them, and stuffed them into Aunt Zhang's mouth. "If you feel uncomfortable, just put one in your mouth."
Aunt Zhang refused twice, but she did feel a little nervous, so she accepted it and ate a piece immediately. "You are really kind people. Don't worry, I will definitely help you clean up the house. I will come to clean it every day from now on."
After renting out a normal apartment, she only needs to clean it once a month and check if there are any damaged furniture or appliances. If there are special needs, she needs to pay points, 0.5 points for each cleaning, and the apartment takes 0.45 points.
"Not every day, we just need to follow the apartment rules." Lao Chu didn't want to take advantage of the poor, "But if you have time, you can help us pay more attention to the residents around us. You know, there are all kinds of people in the end times, and we have two children. If I encounter a bad guy, I can't beat him alone."
"Don't worry about that. The security team comes every month for routine patrols. This month, they come especially frequently. Generally, no one dares to cause trouble." Aunt Zhang said with a smile, "But you should pay more attention to the room next door, 709. There are many gentlemen living in that room, and they are all very vicious."
"The largest room here is only 70 square meters. How many people can live in it?"
"Anyway, I saw at least a dozen unfamiliar faces. The reason why this floor is not fully occupied is because of them. I heard from people in other rooms that at night, they make some noises, not loud, but it sounds scary. They keep making noises like wailing and ahhh." At this point, Aunt Zhang cleared her throat deliberately, after all, there were two children there.
Chu An understood, but she felt that it was unlikely to be a pimp, but rather that members of an organization might be taking turns living there. This situation had happened in the Daming base in the previous life, so it seemed that she had to pay more attention to it in the future.
Chu An looked at the time, it was already four o'clock. She asked Old Chu to stay with Aunt Zhang to clean up the room. She took Gu Ye to the grave mound. No matter if the children came or not, she had something she had to do.
"Ouch, why did you tear off the talisman? It's used to ward off evil spirits." Aunt Zhang, who had just recovered a little, slapped her thigh and went to pick up the talisman from the ground.
Chu An and Gu Ye hurried downstairs. Old Chu stared at the two kids who ran faster than rabbits, and he had no place to vent his anger. Finally, under Aunt Zhang's endless nagging, he had to use his best skills and imitate her to create the Chu family exorcism talisman, and by the way, he made up a bizarre and fantasy background for himself.
His paintings are indeed better than those garbled ones. He exchanges herbs and items at the night market in the outer city at night.
…
On the other hand, Chu An first asked Gu Ye to drive to the vicinity of Shengshi Tiao on Fourth Avenue, where he found an apartment and rented it for a month.
I rented an apartment near Sheng 15th Street on the Third Street and Sheng 24th Street on the Second Street, both for one month, and put some supplies in the apartments that could be easily exchanged for points.
Finally, the two of them came to RiRiJiuJiu to renew their lease.
The relatives at the front desk were still there and had even started packing their luggage, preparing to move into Chu An and the others' room.
"Sorry, I want to renew for another month." Chu An said to the front desk with a smile, "This is my resident card."
The girl at the front desk was not the same one as before. Her eyes lit up when she saw her room number. “Okay, I’ll do it right away.”
"Hey, no, no." The husband behind rushed up and tried to pull Chu An's arm, but was pushed by Gu Ye and staggered.
"Ah, why did you hit my husband?" The woman rushed forward, but stopped immediately when she saw the black stone dagger flashing in Gu Ye's hand, "You...you..."
"Don't get close to us, or I'm not sure how far I can go to protect myself." Gu Ye saw the self-defense slogans posted on the wall at the Public Security Bureau, which were much more relaxed than those in the heyday. For those who rushed up for no reason like them, they could just treat it as a robbery and fight back.
"He hit someone, and your apartment complex doesn't do anything about it?" the woman yelled at the front desk.
The receptionist rolled her eyes. She was annoyed by these two people. If it weren't for Weiwei's good relationship with her supervisor, she would have wanted to kick them out.
"I'm sorry, I only saw you guys rushing over, I didn't see them taking action." The receptionist quickly processed Chu An's renewal and handed her the resident card. "The formalities have been completed. The monthly rent is 50 points, and it has been deducted."
Chu An happily left Ri Ri for a long time before directing Gu Ye to go to the vicinity of the grave mound and find an apartment to rent for a month.
