The car's journey was not long, and the roads here were easy to navigate. After five or six minutes, the car stopped at the entrance of a large courtyard house.
The courtyard is extremely simple. There are two stone lions standing brilliantly on both sides of the courtyard gate. The entrance to the courtyard is spotless. If I were not sitting in the car, I would even think that I have traveled to ancient times.
"Little sir, get off the car! This is the Lin family's old house. We come here to live every time during ancestor worship. But I didn't expect that something like this would happen during this ancestor worship."
Lin Yushan shook his head and sighed.
After I got out of the car with the wooden box in my arms, I looked at this ancient courtyard house for a long time and felt a little uncomfortable.
It's this door...something doesn't seem right!
The gate of the courtyard is not small, about five meters wide, but there is a door panel on the top and bottom of the gate.
I walked quickly to the door. The security guard at the door wanted to stop me, but Lin Yushan hurriedly stopped me.
I came to the door, carefully looked at the threshold under my feet, and then looked up.
The invention of the threshold has two functions. One is that it is said that in ancient times, there were zombies, and they were afraid that zombies would jump into the house, so the threshold was set up to block the house and protect the safety of the owner.
The second issue is still about Feng Shui. As the same saying goes, Feng Shui is about gathering Qi, but it should not be allowed to become dead Qi. It must be fluid, and the threshold, as the entrance and exit of the door, fulfills this important responsibility.
Although the Lin family also has a threshold, it is located both up and down, and the size is more than two inches higher than the normal doorway. This means that the Lin family's Qi can only enter, but cannot exit, and has no mobility. Eventually, the Qi stored in the courtyard will become Dead air.
Only then did I understand why the Lin family's old house was shrouded in a layer of mist when viewed from a distance. It turned out that the root cause was here.
In addition to turning life into death, this gatehouse also has a big problem. The upper and lower thresholds are like a beast opening its mouth, and the people living inside are in its belly.
In this case, we usually call it the White Tiger Mensa!
"Little sir, is there something wrong with this door?"
Seeing that I had been stunned for a long time, Lin Yushan couldn't help but ask.
I came back to my senses and looked at him solemnly: "Boss Lin, if you believe me, remove the upper and lower thresholds of the door and replace them with normal thresholds."
Lin Yushan was stunned at the time. He didn't expect that I would say anything about changing the threshold.
"Sir, are you saying that the problems in my family were caused by these two pieces of wood?"
"Yes and no, it's impossible for a white tiger sect to bring chaos to your whole family."
I shook my head and glanced around again.
"Quickly, you guys tear down these two broken pieces of wood."
When Lin Yushan heard what I said, he immediately ordered his men to start breaking down the threshold.
The work efficiency of a large family really shocked me. It only took four or five minutes to disassemble and replace these two thresholds with new ones.
Maybe Lin Yushan was also anxious. After holding it in for so many days, how could he not be angry knowing that it was caused by two pieces of wood?
Lin Yushan said with a flattering smile: "Little sir, the threshold has been changed. How do you think it looks now?"
I nodded and didn't use a ruler to measure it. After ten years of making coffins, my eyes have become very skilled. The threshold was changed correctly this time. It is three inches and six minutes high, which represents three hundred and sixty days.
"Is there anyone still living in the yard?"
I turned to ask Lin Yushan.
Lin Yushan answered without hesitation: "Well, my father and several brothers are all in the yard and have not moved out yet."
"If possible, let them move out first!"
I sighed and calmly smeared a drop of cow's tears on my eyelids. The originally ordinary yard changed its appearance after applying the cow's tears.
In the air in the courtyard, there are wisps of black smoke floating, and there is a sinister atmosphere here.
When I looked at Lin Yushan and the security guards behind him, I found that there was a faint darkness on the foreheads of these people, which is the legendary gathering of black energy.
Lin Yushan and the others were stared at unnaturally by my scrutinizing gaze, and they deliberately avoided their gazes.
"Lead the way!"
I smiled and strode into the hospital first.
"Who is this boss? I was stared at by him just now, and I feel like I'm getting goosebumps!"
One of the security guards at the door couldn't help but ask.
"It's not what you know. Don't ask. It's not good to ask too many questions."
Lin Yushan's eyes turned cold and he glanced at the security guard.
"yes!"
The security guard lowered his head and was about to return to his original position when he was stopped by Lin Yushan.
"You guys don't stay here for now. I'll give you one week's leave, plus one month's salary, so you can all take a break."
After Lin Yushan finished speaking, he hurriedly entered the hospital.
I didn't walk fast, and Lin Yushan caught up with me after a short jog.
To be honest, the environment inside the hospital is really beautiful. I took a brief look at the layout, and there seems to be nothing unusual. Is it... really just because of those two thresholds?
Unlikely?
"Follow me, young gentleman. My father and the others are in the main hall."
Lin Yushan raised his hand to one side, motioning for me to follow him.
I didn't resist, Lin Yushan led the way, and I followed behind him.
The Lin family's old house is not small, and the courtyards are all connected together. Without Lin Yushan to lead the way, I might have gotten lost in the house.
He kept walking and stopping along the way, barely blinking his eyes, always looking for the real reason why the Lin family was haunted.
But there was no gain.
Not long after, Lin Yushan took me to the door of a hall. There were many people sitting in the room, and they were very noisy and upset.
Lin Yushan came quickly, and there was an old man sitting there. He whispered something into his ear. The old man looked to be seventy or eighty years old, with gray hair. He was wearing an old robe and mandarin jacket. From a distance, he could see that although he was old, he had a dignified appearance. live.
The old man slowly opened his eyes and smiled at me: "Is this kid a disciple of Master Yang?"
The old man's voice was not loud, or even very small, but just this sentence made the noisy crowd in the hall quiet down in an instant.
Their eyes looked around the hall, and finally locked their eyes on the only new face, which was me.
I didn't panic when faced with this kind of situation where everyone was watching closely. I've seen a lot of big scenes in the past ten years following Coffin Yang. I've seen so many different kinds of people that I got used to it.
I shook my head slightly and cupped my hands and said, "The old man is wrong. I am not a disciple, but Master Yang's only disciple."
When it comes to the latter sentence, I deliberately emphasize the word "only".
Although disciple and apprentice have similar meanings, they are not the same thing at all.
Disciples are like the relationship between students and class teachers during school days, while apprentices and masters are like parents.
Mr. Lin was a little surprised that I was neither humble nor arrogant: "Oh? This kid doesn't look very old. He probably hasn't reached the age of training yet. Why didn't Master Yang go with him?"
"It's just a brat, why does my master need to take action?"
I naturally noticed that the Lin family looked down upon me, and they were not polite and answered bluntly.
"Haha! This little brother is very serious. The matter of my Lin family is very big, so I'd better ask Master Yang to solve it. As for you, you'd better go home and drink milk!"
One of them stood up and smiled jokingly at me.
Lin Yushan slammed the table, rushed to the man, and scolded: "Fourth, please be polite, he is Master Yang's apprentice. I don't care whether you believe this or not, don't ruin the affairs of my Lin family, if you do No, I can't spare you."
"Hmph, what about Master Yang? I've already found out his details. He's just a coffin maker. Lin Yushan, as the successor of the Lin family, you didn't expect that you would travel thousands of miles to that shabby place to hire a coffin maker. Do you think the Lin family is not unlucky enough for the people who came here? Do you want this kid to make a coffin for each of us?"
The fourth oldest member of the Lin family pointed his finger at me, glared and yelled.
