Haunted Houses’ Chronicles

Chapter 2: Bad start

Views:

The first thing we fell in love with was a villa in another city in the same province. The villa was built in the early 1990s. The owner of the villa was a rich man surnamed Wang. It was a coincidence that Qin Yiheng and I met him. One day, Qin Yiheng accidentally saw a house sale post posted by him on an online real estate forum, and gave him a call with the attitude of giving it a try, but it turned out that we really hit the right button, and immediately made an appointment It's time to meet. Today, the business of this local rich man has grown bigger and bigger, but he still can't change his nouveau riche temperament. When we met, I roughly estimated that the gold ornaments on his body weighed several kilograms. When I was talking, I pointed my fingers at the table, and the gold watch on my wrist made my eyes dizzy. According to the local rich man, he took advantage of the good time of the reform and opening up to make a few windfalls, and when he had more money, he naturally began to enjoy it. This house was bought after he made a fortune. After living for a few years, he moved to another new house. Because there was no shortage of money, the villa was not sold, but sublet to a painter as a creative studio. This painter is not well-known, and he is said to be very weird. Originally, the people who lived in the villa area were either rich or noble, and they basically didn't like to socialize with their neighbors, so this painter has always been mysterious, and has never appeared since the day he moved in.

A year later, when he came to collect the rent, he found that the painter had already died in the villa. This is also the weirdest part of this villa. It sounds a bit like a fairy tale. The whole villa was decorated by painters to look like a tomb. The walls are covered with murals. There are coffins and coffins, and the specifications look very high. The doors and windows of the entire villa were locked, and there were only a few long-burning lights that had been extinguished long ago. At that time, the rich man surnamed Wang was scared to death when he saw this, and then called the police. After the police came, they didn't find out why, so they decided it was a suicide, and the house remained empty. Nowadays, property prices are soaring. Even if he is rich, he still feels distressed when he sees such an empty house. He thought, no matter how much it sells for, it is better than looking at it like this, so he asked his assistant to post it online. After reading the post, I went to the real estate agency to register, planning to sell the villa at a cheaper price.

Hearing what the local rich man said, this house is really mysterious. Qin Yiheng suggested to visit the house first before making any plans, after all, it was just talk on paper now. The local rich man seemed to be very afraid of that villa, so he just gave us the key and let us go to see the house by ourselves. We didn't delay, took the key and went to the address.

When we went to see it, the coffin had already been emptied, but the murals on the wall were still there. Needless to say, haunted houses all have one thing in common, that is, you can feel the gloomy air when you push the door open.

The whole villa is not too big in this group of villas, about 230 square meters. The living room is very magnificent, which is quite in line with the aesthetics of the local rich. Qin Yiheng and I walked around, he looked around for a long time, his face became happy, and told me that this house is not a haunted house at all, there is no such thing as wronged souls, we bought it for pure profit. I was also very happy to hear what he said, and I was not so nervous anymore, so I looked at the murals on the wall curiously.

The murals are indeed weird, all using oil painting techniques, very realistic, but rather sloppy. The content should be the scene where the painter fantasized about himself ascending to immortality from the inside of this house, and a group of virgins and virgins beside him followed him to the kingdom of heaven. Because it is a traditional Chinese painting with oil painting techniques, it looks a bit nondescript. After looking at a few of them, I felt that something was wrong, because the one who ascended to immortality in this painting was a woman. This is not a matter of hair length. Although many painters' hair is not short, but because the paintings are very realistic, it can be seen that the figure of this woman is quite good.

Although I found it strange, I didn't think about it. Originally, it is difficult for us ordinary people to figure out the artist's thinking. Besides, I am not very interested in it. I just make my money, so I simply communicated with Qin Yiheng. After a while, I planned to sign a contract with that rich man in the afternoon. The contract was signed smoothly, and the price was within our expected range. The market value of this villa should be more than 900,000 yuan. We won it for only a little over 100,000 yuan, and both parties thought they had made a profit. The local rich money not only solved a heart problem but also got the money. We also picked up a big bargain, so everyone was very happy, eating and drinking to our heart's content.

Then there is the question of the purpose of the house. I really like this villa. Although it is relatively old, it is at least a villa. For me who came from a poor background, living in a villa in this life is simply unimaginable, so I hope to renovate it and keep it for myself. Qin Yiheng didn't object, but just told me that although there are no ghosts and gods in this house, it seems to have a bit of Feng Shui, but he doesn't understand it very well. We need to find someone who understands Feng Shui to take a good look. Unexpectedly, after a day, before finding an expert who understands Fengshui, the rich man came to us and said that he would buy the villa back. As a businessman, I am of course very happy to do this. As long as he gives me the right price and makes me a fortune, it will be like picking up money for nothing. After talking about the price, the wealthy local decided to pay 200,000 yuan. I thought about the net profit of a small hundred thousand, which was almost the same, so I agreed. However, I'm curious why the house that was just sold to us was bought back in such a hurry. In the evening, Qin Yiheng and I talked together and felt that there must be something tricky in it, so we decided to delay signing the contract and find out what was going on from the side.

So, I asked around in places like mahjong parlors and teahouses, and found out that not only one painter died, but also a nude model that the painter was painting at that time died in the same coffin as the painter. In this way, it corresponds to the woman on the mural, but why did the rich man tell us that only one person died? Could it be that he doesn't know? This obviously shouldn't be, and it's already a haunted house. He said that there is not much difference between the death of one person and the death of two people. Obviously he was lying, and the reason must not be this. Now my curiosity was aroused, and Qin Yiheng was also very interested, so we decided to investigate further. Finally, we made up our minds and went to the villa again.

It was already afternoon when we arrived at the villa, and we actually wandered around the villa aimlessly. Looking around, we really didn't find anything. I ran to look at those murals again, but I didn't see any clues. The two of us stood on the balcony on the second floor smoking and talking about it.

He said that it is estimated that the boss is afraid that we will discover some of his secrets.

I also agree with this point, if this is the case, then the boss probably only discovered this secret recently, otherwise he would not have sold the house to us.

I guessed that the boss killed the woman, and then just happened to see the painter turning the villa into a tomb, so he simply put the woman's body in to interfere with his sight, so that he could get away with it.

Qin Yiheng felt that this inference was unrealistic, because in this case, it would be difficult to explain the woman on the mural. He was more inclined to believe that there might be something hidden by the rich man in a certain part of the villa. Maybe the land was sold before the house was sold. The big money didn't know about it, and when the house was sold, he suddenly realized or remembered it, and then asked us to make up for it.

Something buried in the house? I was quite excited when I heard it, and thought that if it was an antique treasure or something, would it legally belong to me now? Then I earned the 100,000 yuan price difference. Didn’t I pick up the sesame seeds and lose the watermelon? If this is the case, I will definitely not sell the house.

The two of us were chatting, seeing that the sun had already set, and both of us were talking dryly, so we were going to go back home, thinking about coming back the next day to search for treasures, in case it was what we thought, Then this baby can't be lost so easily. After dawdling for a while, we were ready to go downstairs. As soon as I walked up the stairs, Qin Yiheng suddenly turned his head and winked at me, made a "shh" gesture, and then hurriedly whispered into my ear: "Something is back, you hurry up and do it like me."

This sentence almost made me pee my pants. At this time, the sky was not completely dark yet, and I looked down, but it was hazy and my vision was not very good. At this time, Qin Yiheng stuffed something into my mouth and told me to hold my breath and never swallow the things in my mouth, and follow him with my eyes closed, and when I feel that I hit something, I should spray out the things in my mouth forcefully ! Before I listened to Lisuo, he had already walked down first, so I had to follow suit.
