"Yes, yes, then let's go take a look first, take inventory of the things inside, and then report to the Xian family?" Old Man Luo asked with a questioning look on his face, waiting for my answer.
I almost couldn't help but laugh. This house doesn't belong to me, so this happened.
"Well, go ahead." But I could only hold back my smile and waved my hand.
Because I remembered what Xuanyuan Zi said about greed. It is a good thing that these people are afraid of me now. At least they are no longer greedy.
After all, no one knows whether something will happen if he enters the old house with greed.
"I didn't expect you to be in such a dangerous situation this time. It's such a pity that I'm not here every time something like this happens." Zhong Ke'an left with the outsiders, and Zhou Jiaonan muttered.
"We told her what happened in the old house last night." Judging from Mu Dan's helpless look, it must have been Zhou Jiaonan who was pestering her.
"There will be another chance in the future. It is indeed too dangerous for you to go this time." Haitang turned to comfort Zhou Jiaonan.
"You and Xiaotian live and die together, and I have no share in it. I feel like an outsider..." Zhou Jiaonan acted like this because he was jealous.
"Heizi didn't go either..." I turned around and wanted to find Heizi to help me, but I looked around and saw no one.
"I'm hungry, I'm going out to eat something..." Following the voice, I saw that the boy was already outside the door, and he closed the door as he spoke.
"Heizi and I are going to buy something to eat." I also wanted to get up and escape.
"You are not allowed to go, I will ask the hotel to take you there." Zhou Jiaonan grabbed me.
Three women in one drama, at this moment, a chill suddenly surged in my heart.
Fortunately, they didn't join forces to make things difficult for me. They just asked me to tell me what happened after I entered the hut.
Everyone must be curious about how I dealt with the evil spirits in the house, but there was no chance for me to tell them. It was hard for them to wait all night with curiosity.
The hotel is very efficient, probably because our rooms are on the special care list.
The three girls were sitting across from me eating delicious food. I just stretched out my hand and was touched. I had to watch them eat and told stories obediently.
After the story was told, the three women were filled with indignation and unanimously sided with Xuanyuan Zi. They all felt that those bandits deserved to die.
While they were discussing, I quickly leaned on the table and picked up some of their leftovers to eat.
If Old Man Luo saw this scene, I'm afraid he would misunderstand my special hobby.
Sometime in the afternoon, I don't know what happened, but Heizi came back with Zhong Ke'an.
"How's it going?" I motioned for Zhong K'an to take a seat.
"We were busy dealing with evil spirits and didn't pay attention. The things in the old house are priceless. Now the Cultural Relics Bureau is here, and the experts are appraising the things in the old house." Zhong Ke'an said excitedly.
"Where's Old Man Luo? Didn't he buy the old house?" I was a little curious. How could a man like Old Man Luo be willing to let the Cultural Relics Bureau get involved if he had no profit and couldn't afford it early?
"Actually, I'm also very surprised. After we entered the house, I walked all the way and told him what we encountered. After we came out, he contacted the Cultural Relics Bureau himself." Zhong Ke'an also looked confused.
"What? Did you notice your conscience? Are you still worried that the house is not clean?" Heizi said angrily.
I didn't answer. If the Cultural Relics Bureau intervened, it would be a good thing. At least there would be no greed in it, and I wouldn't be sorry for Xuanyuan Zi.
"But what happened in that hut?" Zhong Ke'an immediately changed the topic to me.
"Yeah, tell me quickly. Apart from what happened to you in the hut, Brother Zhong has told me everything else." Heizi also immediately came over.
"I just finished speaking..." I looked at the clean dishes on the table and frowned.
"Tell it again, we still want to hear it." Unexpectedly, the three women also came over.
"Hey... that's it..." I had no choice but to tell it again. I felt like I was like a storyteller, because after telling it once, I was even more engaged than the last time.
Everyone was listening attentively, and when they heard Xuanyuan Zi asking me whether those bandits should be killed, every one of them was unhappy, gnashing their teeth and shouting to kill.
If the noise was heard by the residents outside the house, they would wonder what we were doing in the house.
Near dinner time, Huang Yu came.
"Old man Luo would like to invite all the immortals to have a meal and discuss matters about the old house." Huang Yu got straight to the point.
"You invite people to dinner without showing up yourself?" Heizi was the first to be unhappy.
"This..." Huang Yu smiled awkwardly.
I thought he was afraid of offending Heizi and being embarrassed, but old man Luo immediately followed me.
"I was very offended before. I was worried that my appearance would ruin everyone's fun, so I asked Brother Huang to invite them on my behalf." As soon as Old Man Luo came in, he kept his posture very low.
"Then you have to eat something good. My senior brother spent a lot of effort." Heizi will not be embarrassed.
His consistent tenet is that as long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.
"That's necessary. I'm coming here just to pick you up." Old Man Luo smiled instead of angry, looking very happy.
"Okay Heizi, let's go then." They greeted me with a smile, so naturally I couldn't show my face anymore.
The point is that I'm really hungry, and the scraps of food from the morning can't do anything.
In the huge private room, a table full of various delicacies was placed, and as soon as the door was opened, a burst of aroma filled the nostrils.
Looking at the steaming food in front of me, my stomach growled a few times.
"Eat first, eat first, and let's chat slowly when we're full." Fortunately, Old Man Luo still knew how to watch people's emotions.
After eating, I leaned back in the chair and finally regained some feeling of being alive.
Old Man Luo immediately ordered someone to bring a few bottles of good wine and poured it for us himself.
This is to prepare me to tell a story, but this is the attitude of listening to the story.
But he was not in a hurry to let me know. He had good wine and a few dishes to go with the wine. Anyway, he kept making me eat comfortably.
There was no one else at the dinner party, except for our group, Old Man Luo and Huang Yu, both of whom were still left in the hotel by their father.
"Boss Luo wants to know how I can deal with the real owner, right?" After a few glasses of wine, I was in a good mood, so I took the initiative to ask.
"That's right, Taoist Zhong told me everything before, but in the end it was you who faced it alone. I'm really curious about what happened." Old Man Luo was still polite.
Huang Yu was probably in a similar situation to him. Although he didn't speak at the moment, his desire to listen to the story was written on his face.
Now that we had good wine and delicious food at our fingertips, I raised my glass and took another sip to moisten my throat.
Seeing me coughing twice, the two of them immediately sat up straight, like primary school students listening to a lecture.
"Actually, the owner of that house is the real victim..." Putting down the wine glass, I told the story of Xuanyuan Zi for the third time.
But this time, I added some of my own understanding, and even described Xuanyuanzi's mentality at that time, and the harmful greed Xuanyuanzi said.
I even talked about our debates about what is a human being, what is a demon, and what is the Taoist mind.
"Hey...Xianjia, I'll toast you with this glass of wine, okay?" After finishing the story, Old Man Luo sighed and stood up, with a sad look on his face.
"Of course." I was a little confused, but I still clinked glasses with Old Man Luo.
The two drank, put down their glasses and sat down again. Old Man Luo looked at me with a wry smile.
"Xianjia, maybe you can tell how old I am this year?" Old Man Luo said.
"It looks like seventy, but it's actually sixty." Of course I told the truth. I didn't need to flatter him.
"Sure enough, it's the Immortal Family. After this month, I will be sixty-one." Old Man Luo gave me a fist and nodded vigorously.
"Mr. Luo..." Huang Yu leaned towards Old Man Luo with some embarrassment.
"I'm not drunk, don't worry, I don't dare to offend these immortals again. I was really blind before." Old Man Luo's words made us confused.
This is a toast, and it's also about guessing your age. What kind of trouble are you trying to make?
"Actually, I did have my own selfish motives when I came to this town..." Old Man Luo was about to tell the truth after drinking.
"Stop beating around the bush, just say it directly." Heizi became impatient again.
"Yes, to be honest, my father was among the last group of people who entered the old house fifty years ago." Old Man Luo said with a bitter smile, tears immediately hanging from the corners of his eyes.
"Ah?" Not only Heizi, but everyone present exclaimed.
