: Ghosts and Gods
After walking for two days, the carriage finally entered Yizhou and entered Zhuguan Road. There were more pedestrians and vehicles on the road.
The carriages and horses passed by, raising a lot of dust. Mr. Zhuang lowered the curtain of the carriage, but the three people in the car behind him didn't mind at all. They opened the window and crowded between the two windows to look outside.
But the pedestrians on the road were in a hurry, and they lost much interest after looking at them for a while. On the contrary, the passing vehicles were more interesting.
Outside Yizhou City, the small gates on both sides are for pedestrians to enter and exit, while the middle is for vehicles to enter and exit. Pedestrians only need to check briefly, but vehicles need to be inspected in detail.
They didn't bring much, and they were three young boys and girls, so they were let out quickly.
After entering Yizhou City, Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang chattered and introduced to Manbao that they had already been to Yizhou City once.
"However," Bai Shanbao looked around and said, "Yizhou City looks much more lively now than last time."
"That's right, last time we came, there were a lot of refugees outside Yizhou City and a lot of beggars in the city. Although it was lively, it felt weird. It's much better now." Bai Erlang said happily: "We only stayed for two days last time.
, we haven’t played in many places yet, this time we are going to have a good time.”
Zhou Lang was very excited when he saw so many people on the street. It was the first time for him to see such a prosperous city.
The group of people found an inn to stop, but Mr. Zhuang did not let them move their luggage down. Instead, he said: "Let's eat first, and then find a place to stay after eating."
Man Bao asked: "Sir, aren't we staying in an inn?"
"We are going to stay here for a long time. How much will it cost to stay in an inn with so many people?" Mr. Zhuang said, "Let's rent a small courtyard to stay."
Mr. Zhuang has stayed in Yizhou for a long time. Although many years have passed, the streets and alleys of Yizhou have not changed much.
After eating, Zhou Lang was left to look at something, and he took the rest of the people and turned left and right into a small house. Man Bao looked up at the flag hanging next to him and found that it was a dental store.
Mr. Zhuang had already struck up a conversation with a local, and he requested: "Look for a house near Fu Xue, on Kangxue Street. It must have four to six rooms, and it is best to have a small courtyard."
."
Mr. Zhuang glanced at the wooden sign above the tooth row and said: "The monthly rent is no more than one or two and a half."
Yaren immediately said: "Sir, this request is too strict. I have always been able to rent a house near the government school. What you asked for is not too big or too small. It happens to be the most popular one. This two and a half is too little."
Already."
Mr. Zhuang asked with his hands behind his back, "Is the rent in Yizhou City expensive now?"
"Well, if you are richer, it will be easier for us to find a house, right?"
"Then what do you think is the better rent for a house like this?"
"Two taels is the upper limit, what do you think?"
Mr. Zhuang was not very good at bargaining, so Bai Shanbao immediately stepped forward and said, "Select all the houses that meet the requirements and let us take a look. No matter whether the price is high or low, we will compare them."
"Oh, this is not easy, there are so many houses..."
"As long as it's near the government school, it doesn't go out of these two streets, it has about five rooms, and it has to have a yard." Bai Shanbao asked Manbao: "Is there anything else you can add?"
"It's better to be quieter. We'd rather walk a little further to the downtown area rather than get too close to the street."
Yaren rolled his eyes and asked, "How about being more quiet?"
Man Bao knew at a glance that he had thought of something suitable, and said: "The carriage is easy to get in and out of."
"Convenient, convenient. I wouldn't have thought of it unless the guests said it was secluded. There really is a house on Kangxue Street that is just right." Yaren said with a smile, "There are two main rooms on the left and right and a second room on the left.
The lobby room and courtyard are also very large, and the monthly rent is cheap, only one tael of silver, which is the lowest price in the area."
Mr. Zhuang asked: "Are there any taboos?"
When Yaren heard this, he felt a little embarrassed and said, "A little bit."
The yamen has requirements for dental shops. As long as customers ask, the dentists cannot conceal information, otherwise they will be punished for fraud once discovered.
Not only will the qualifications of the dentist be revoked, but the dental practice may also be implicated.
So Mr. Zhuang asked, and Yaren smiled and said: "The house next door is the house of the former governor Yan's family. Since his house was raided, the house has been abandoned. It has been more than two years, and there are always people saying that they heard
There were cries of women and children next door, and it was so loud that even the houses separated by a wall were difficult to rent out."
Man Bao was very curious, "Why are there so many houses on Kangxue Street for rent? Don't you even live in them?"
"Of course there are people to live in, but many of them are rented out. That house has been rented out for nearly ten years. The location used to be so good. Not only was it convenient and secluded, but the next door was also the governor's residence. That was less than a month.
For two liang, the landlord doesn’t rent.”
Bai Erlang was very curious, "Is there really a ghost?"
"Who knows? Anyway, people living nearby said they heard the cries of women and children."
The three of them looked at Mr. Zhuang together and asked, "Sir, do we want to rent?"
Mr. Zhuang said: "If you don't want to rent it, let's find another place."
Man Bao and Bai Shanbao were a little moved, mainly, "We haven't seen a ghost yet."
Mr. Zhuang: "...do you still want to see me?"
Young people don't understand what it means to be afraid, especially Man Bao. She said: "There is a saying that all living things in the world can be viewed as energy bodies. If there are really ghosts in this world, then ghosts should also be energy bodies.
But people can’t see it. Is this because its energy is special, or because its energy is so weak that people can’t see it, or because its energy is so strong that we can’t see it?”
"I think it's the second type," Man Bao said: "If people really turn into ghosts after death, then they probably can't do anything to people. Otherwise, there would be so many people in this world who died unjustly.
Isn’t it easy to find enemies and take revenge?”
Bai Erlang said: "You said a few days ago that evil will be punished."
"That's not revenge avenged by ghosts," Bai Shanbao said thoughtfully: "People who do bad things must be punished. This is the law and morality. If people don't know it, they can't do anything but themselves, so they will always be punished if they do bad things.
Those who are exposed will naturally be punished when the time comes, but people will receive retribution, which is not the case."
Man Bao nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, so I think we don't need to be afraid of ghosts. If they really exist, it would be nice to see them. Maybe we can talk to them and hear many stories."
Mr. Zhuang:……
Yaren:……
Bai Erlang was curious and excited, but also scared. He said tangledly: "Isn't this bad? What if they are very powerful and then harm us?"
"Generally, people are the ones who harm others." Bai Shanbao looked at Mr. Zhuang eagerly, "Sir, how about we go take a look. If it's suitable, we will make a decision."
"Yes, yes, I think those are all caused by people being frightened. Didn't you also say, sir, that you can't speak and have strange powers and derange your mind?"
