Chapter 61: The Successor of Mount Lao and the Mansion of Murder

  When Jian Yu Mei and Lin Li were having a great time eating there.

  They saw someone walk in.

  That person's attire looks like a Jianghu martial artist.

  The man wore a Taoist robe, had a beard, and looked to be in his forties. His face was thin and pointed, revealing his cheekbones, but his small eyes darted back and forth. At first glance, he seemed like Sun Wukong searching for demons, but at second glance, it seemed like he was searching for where the ocean had fallen to the ground.

  He held a bamboo pole in his hand, with a small yellow flag on top of the pole, written in large characters "The True Disciple of Mount Cang", and on the left side, a row of small characters "Fortune Telling and Divination for Good or Bad Luck", and on the right side, a row of small characters "Feng Shui, Exorcism and Warding off Evil Spirits".

  Lin Li took a look and whispered to Jianyu Mei: "Wow, this is a great master!"

  Jian Yu Mei also nodded, "Yes, it looks very fierce!"

  The master at this moment felt that someone was paying attention to him, he immediately straightened his waist, and his eyes were no longer wandering around like before, as if searching for a lost ocean, no, it seemed like he was searching for demons and ghosts.

  He walked in with his head held high and sat down at a table.

  The kid came over immediately, "Master Niu is great! Master, what have you been busy with recently? It's been a long time since I saw you!"

  "Hello Zhang, it's been a long time! Yeah, I just finished a very complicated job that kept me busy for many days. Now that it's done, I can finally relax and come try some of the best Liangpi in Xi'an at your place!"

  "Wow, this is intense! Did Master Niu go to catch a fierce ghost or save a dying patient? Tell us about it!" Zhang Er said.

  "This, it's a long story. This time it was one of my old customers, he just bought a house, but as soon as he went in, he found out that this is a haunted house! A haunted house! Do you understand?" Master Niu said to Zhang Er.

  "Wow, Master, that old customer of yours is really unlucky, but he's also very lucky to have met you, Master Niu. You'll definitely help him get it fixed!" Zhang Er said.

  "This thing, of course, is not a problem for me, but what's frustrating is!" said here, Master Niu raised his voice, because he felt that many people around him were listening to his voice, and many people were looking at him with admiring eyes. "What's frustrating is that when he bought the house, why didn't he come to find me? I can give him advice! With my professional vision, what problem can't be solved?"

  "Yes, it would have been better if he had come to you earlier. That's just how people are in this world - they don't seek medical help until they're ill. Honestly, they lack awareness! If I were going to buy a mansion like that, I would definitely tell the master about it in advance, but I couldn't afford it anyway!" said Zhang Er.

  "Hey, you don't know, that house... never mind. I took a look, the door, its orientation is all wrong, it's like a direct collision with the gate of death. And inside, that small pond, it's directly facing the yinmen (gate of darkness), it's like a straight passageway to the underworld! No wonder people who lived in this house before mostly died unnatural deaths, many women even jumped into that pond! You say, if someone dies and enters through the yinmen, that's one thing, but that place... I don't know who or what, some kind of ignorant fool, actually had the owner set up a Zhong Kui (a ghost-quelling deity) there. It's harming these people, after they die, they don't dare to directly enter the yinmen, and their ghosts can only wander around the house every day! What kind of house is this?!" said Niu Dashi.

  "Ah, so it's a haunted house! Not only is it a murder scene, but also a haunted house!" Zhang Er said.

  "Hey, I'm telling you non-professionals, when something happens, you must find professionals like us. Don't you understand? We are very professional. Don't look at the little money we charge you, but compare it to the benefits you get, and it's completely disproportionate. Think about it, can those few dollars be compared to the life and death safety of your family members? Can those few dollars be compared to the huge gains and losses in your business? Isn't that right?" Master Niu was starting to get indignant there.

  "Yes, yes, completely out of proportion!" Zhang Er said.

  At this time, Master Niu's complexion slightly improved. "I'm also watching these people, speechless! After I arrived and saw the situation, I was shocked! Fortunately, this customer recognized me, otherwise, I would have suffered a disaster! Those ghosts have become malevolent spirits, and the original mansion's evil energy is still there! That's an omen of extinction!"

  "Ah, fortunately, fortunately, fortunately they know Master Niu! Now Master Niu will take care of everything, right?" Zhang Er said.

  "I went, what's wrong with that? But it was really enough to keep me busy. I was busy for many days, catching ghosts and driving out evil spirits and changing the feng shui, and also directing their construction workers on how to build. Finally, it was all settled, and now I can finally rest easy!" Master Niu said.

  At this time, a group of people surrounded one person and walked in.

  All I saw was that person wearing a long gown, with short hair and sharp yet kind eyes, holding a cigarette in his hand.

  "Mr. Lu Xun, this way, please!" A teacher-like person beside him was calling out to him.

  "All right, Mr. Wang is being polite! You all come and take a seat too!" said this man named Lu Xun.

  "Alright, come on, teachers, you've all worked hard, please take a seat!" said Wang Laoshi as he greeted everyone.

  After they sat down, Teacher Wang spoke up, "This time Mr. Lu Xun came to Xi'an, it's really brought us fresh air, your thoughts, your style, it's truly made us feel extraordinary, I think many years later, the people of Shaanxi will still remember your visit here!"

  "It's all right, I'm just a writer. If my thoughts can bring some benefits to everyone, I think it would be a good thing for me, for the people of Shanxi, and for the Chinese nation. Our country has been sleeping for too long, and in order to truly wake up, we still need to rely on all of you! Especially relying on them, these young people!" Mr. Lu Xun looked at Du Yuming's table and Xiang Yu Mei there.

  Jian Yu Mei felt a twinge of shame at this moment, he knew Mr. Lu Xun, and didn't expect to run into him here.

  "Mr. Lu Xun, nice to meet you, I'm so happy! I've read your books, they're written too well! Very instructive!" Jian Yu Mei said this sentence, everyone was leaning in close, the voice didn't need to be loud, everyone could hear it.

  "Yes, the country's prosperity depends on you young people!" Lu Xun smiled slightly, speaking to Jian Yuemei and also to Du Yuming and the others at the table.

  "Yes, Mr. Lu Xun, we will soon be going to a place to seek new ideals and serve the country. I think your encouragement will be remembered by us!" Du Yuming said in a low voice.

  "That's good, that's good!" Lu Xun's sharp eyes glanced at Du Yuming and the young people around him, as if he had heard his unspoken words.
