Go forward and turn left three hundred steps.

Jiang Ling took the yellow dog and walked along the route pointed by the palm platform, and really saw a huge courtyard standing in front of him.

But when we got here, we saw a little desolation.

The surrounding shops were closed, and there were few people on the streets.

However, as long as there is a free place to stay and it is not desolate, there is nothing wrong with it.

"Wait a minute, young man, do you really want to go?"

Just when Jiang Ling was about to come to the door, a waiter from the inn suddenly ran up behind him, panting: "To tell you the truth, if it's not necessary, don't go, then don't go.

Then Zhujiazhuang..."

He wanted to say goodbye, but seemed to have something to hide, "Don't go anyway. My boss said that if you have little money, the woodshed can count you twenty cents a night. Can you live there?"

Jiang Ling smiled. The innkeeper could make the waiters chase him out to dissuade him, which showed that he was quite a good person.

"What you mean is that there is something weird in Zhujiazhuang, right?"

But the waiter seemed to be very taboo about this place. He hurriedly walked a few steps away and signaled to stop talking nonsense: "I have already brought you the message. If something goes wrong with you, it has nothing to do with us."

"This Zhujiazhuang looks good to me. Since it's free here, I might as well just save the twenty coins. You can go back."

The waiter was speechless and sneered: "Are you crazy because of poverty? Forget it, if you want to stay, you can stay. This is your own choice. If something goes wrong, don't blame others."

As he spoke, he trotted back.

Jiang Ling looked at the broken gate of [Zhujiazhuang] without any worry.

'So what if there is something weird? No matter how weird it is, can it be weirder than Lanruo Temple?'

He could stay safely for one night at Lanruo Temple, so there must be no problem here.

After walking up the stairs and crossing the courtyard gate, Zhujiazhuang is indeed not small. As soon as you enter the house, you can see that there are sixteen double-row bedrooms in the front yard.

Looking back from the main hall, you can even see the length of the three entrances.

There were dead leaves everywhere in the courtyard and the dust was thick, as if no one had been there for a long time.

'I don't know what's so weird here, that such a big and nice house has been abandoned like this!'

Just as he was looking at the surrounding layout, the yellow dog suddenly became wary. The tail that was wagging before was instantly tucked under his legs, and he whined from time to time.

"Have you discovered anything?" Jiang Ling asked it unexpectedly.

Since he entered the house, he hasn't found anything wrong.

And the yellow dog's reaction changed dramatically in just a moment, which shows that some of the dogs' awareness is indeed much better than that of humans.

"Woof woof~"

The yellow dog suddenly barked twice in the direction of the second entrance hall.

Jiang Ling looked up at the sky. The sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly. He was coming, so why should he be afraid?

Then he stepped into the second entrance hall,

When you step on the dust, you can almost leave a row of clear footprints.

As soon as he entered the second entrance hall, a shaking shadow suddenly appeared in the corner, which startled Jiang Ling.

But when he looked closely, he saw that the figure was just a person.

He was rubbing sawdust in his hands and placing it on small wooden sticks. Judging by his technique, he was making sandalwood.

This man looks very young, probably in his early twenties.

He was wearing a gray gown and had a square scarf to tie his hair. Judging from his appearance, he must also be a scholar.

When Jiang Ling looked at him, he also looked at each other and said nothing.

"Excuse me……"

"go out!"

Jiang Ling just opened his mouth to say hello, but he only blurted out two words and was ordered to be kicked out.

'This man is so rude.'

Seeing that he was not easy to deal with, Jiang Ling didn't say much and turned around and returned to the front yard.

After taking a general look at the wing rooms on both sides, I found a room with a slightly complete window. I pushed the door and walked in. There was a bed, tables and chairs.

‘There is well water available in the yard. It only needs a little tidying up, but it is better than a woodshed.’

He started to move the tables and chairs outside, and the yellow dog actually helped to take out some small pieces of wood from the room.

If one person and one dog spend a few hours tidying up, the room can be considered tidy.

After the tables, chairs, beds and stools are placed in the yard to dry, they can be used as they are.

When night was approaching, he took the yellow dog out and bought some food.

Since I didn't have much money, I could only buy a few steamed buns and deal with them as I pleased.

After eating and returning to his residence, Jiang Ling entered the courtyard and saw the strange scholar standing in front of the room he was cleaning, looking around.

Then he called him.

The scholar turned around and saw that it was him, so he asked, "Do you want to live here?"

"I heard that Zhujiazhuang is an ownerless house. Can't I live here?" Jiang Ling asked.

"Who asked you to move in?" The scholar frowned and spoke in a bad tone.

"Are you the owner of this house?"

"If you don't want to die, get out quickly and stay away from here." The scholar didn't say much, just waved his hand and was about to go to the second hospital.

"Since you are not the owner of this house, your control is too lenient, right? You can live in it, but I can't live in it?"

The other party said something irritated, so Jiang Ling didn't have to be polite.

He pushed open the door, didn't bother to pay much attention, and lay down on the seat.

The yellow dog followed him through the door and huddled aside.

The scholar walked away a few steps. Seeing Jiang Ling's behavior, he suddenly said: "If you don't leave, don't regret it. Finally, I would like to remind you that if someone asks you who you are at night, you should answer "hurry up"

], if I ask other questions, don’t answer them at all. Don’t open the door either. It’s up to you whether you want to listen or not. You can do it yourself.”

Jiang Ling smiled,

From what he said, could there be some ward rounds tonight?

The so-called "errands" refer to people who are doing business and running errands, and they are also called "errand runners". Merchants' homes usually have such people.

Lying on the chair, he wanted to take a nap, but unexpectedly, sleep came over him while lying down, and he fell asleep unconsciously.

It was dark at night, and a cool breeze suddenly blew up, making Zhujiazhuang whirring all over.

The swaying leaves and the cool breeze blowing in through the rotten windows made it extremely noisy.

I don't know when it was, but while he was half asleep and half awake, Jiang Ling heard a dog barking.

He knocked on the table to signal Dahuang to stop barking.

The yellow dog is indeed very understanding of human nature. When he shouts, he immediately stops talking.

However, although it didn't bark, it stood stretched out in the room, its tail between its hind legs, looking at the broken window hole without blinking.

Boom!

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.

The knock was on his door.

Jiang Ling was sleeping deeply and thought it was the scholar, so he ignored him and ignored him.

But the man knocked a few more times and said something - "Who lives inside?"

Her voice was hoarse and old, like that of a woman in her sixties.

When Jiang Ling heard that it was not a scholar knocking on the door, he opened his eyes slightly. His first reaction was to open the door and greet him. But he also remembered the scholar's reminder.

I thought to myself: Are there many people living here?

Are there people who break through the door in the middle of the night?

Then he replied: "It's just a rush."
