With the last day of vacation left, Baitang chose the nearest address among the addresses Han Xiu sent, which was also a house in the villa area. There was also a middleman Zhang Sheng who went with them. When Zhang Sheng first got this villa, he was very happy, thinking that he could get a lot of agency fees from it with his own ability. In the end, no one thought that such a villa belonging to the rich area would be It was a haunted house, and anyone who lived in it would end up being hospitalized with a certain disease, so the house was put back on consignment by their intermediary. Over time, this villa has become a slow-moving real estate that no one cares about.
Therefore, when he heard that Bai Tang and the others were going to visit this villa, Zhang Sheng was delighted that a new victim had come, but at the same time worried that the result would be the same as the previous few times. In the end, fortunately, Zhang Sheng didn't think about anything, just took people to look around, and didn't bother to talk about the house.
"Miss Bai, the villa in front of us is the villa we want to see." As early as when we met, Zhang Sheng saw that Han Xiu was mainly Baitang. He didn't think it was strange about this. This is the case with many rich second generations.
Baitang followed him and looked forward, the villa is not big, but it looks quite beautiful.
Open the door, and the yard that comes with the villa does not occupy a large area. However, there is no shortage of fish ponds, rockery, trees, flowers and plants, and the location is very uniquely arranged by the owner. When they arrived at the villa, Zhang Sheng took them to look at the rooms. The layout of the rooms is mainly warm, and the light in each room is sufficient and bright. It is a house that makes people hard to be dissatisfied. .
"Mr. Zhang, I have a few questions I want to ask you about this villa." After walking around for a while, Han Xiu very discerningly used an excuse to pull Zhang Sheng to the outside yard, making room for Baitang to look at the room alone and time.
After they were out of sight, Baitang closed his eyes to perceive every corner of the villa. After a while, she opened her eyes and walked to the attic on the top floor. The door above was locked, and Zhang Sheng didn't show them here just now. Baitang raised her hand, and the lock on the door unlocked automatically. She turned on the light on the wall, and a small attic that seemed to have been abandoned for a long time appeared in view.
There are not many sundries in the attic, the most accumulated is the dust and some cobwebs. Baitang went to the wall next to the window and squatted down, turned to the corner on the right, stretched out his hand and removed a wooden board standing vertically, revealing a small flag pressed behind. Seeing this flag, Baitang's expression was a little dignified, with some doubts.
Then, Baitang found the same flag from several other corners, there were five sides in total, each side was not covered with dust like other objects in the attic, it was as clean as if it had just been bought from a store. She looked at the simple flag in her hand and frowned. When she first heard that it was a haunted house, she still thought that there might be ghosts and ghosts in this world, but she knew in her heart that the biggest possibility would be that someone had set up a feng shui formation, and the feng shui decorations arranged were what she needed . But when she got to the place, she didn't expect it to be a magic weapon. No wonder the people who lived there were seriously ill and hospitalized.
These five banners are arranged in a small five-element formation. After the formation is in operation, it will slowly absorb the energy of strangers, and finally arrest their souls to feed and strengthen the strength of the banners. It's just that the people who set up the formation may get an incomplete formation. If the formation is set up in this way, these banners can absorb some energy at most, but they can't restrain the soul. And these flags are also very rough.
Bai Tang stood up, and after making a few gestures on several flags, he took them and left the attic.
In the yard, Han Xiu was still using his chatting skills to chat with Zhang Sheng about something. Of course, he also got some information about this villa from the other party.
"Miss Bai, are you satisfied with this villa?" Seeing her coming out, Zhang Sheng asked habitually, not expecting that Baitang would buy the villa. Baitang's answer was also the same as what he thought, and he needed to go back and think about it before replying to him. "Then you can think about it slowly when you go back. If you like the villa with this environment or the villa with this decoration style, I still have a few similar ones in my hand, and I can show you there at any time."
"We will contact you again if necessary."
"Then I'll wait for your call." After locking the door of the villa, Zhang Sheng returned to his car.
After Baitang got into Han Xiu's car, Han Xiu said the information he just got while driving the car: "...In short, judging from what he said, someone will come to buy it every six months or a year. This villa."
"That is to say, based on the time above, there should be a few months before the next sale." Bai Tang's guess is also the reason why Zhang Sheng didn't have much enthusiasm for them. Because of this rule, he No real concerns about the villa deal.
"If this is the case, there must be secrets in this villa that we don't know about." Otherwise, after a villa that can be seen everywhere has a reputation as a haunted house, what charm does it have to make these people come here one by one? buy it. "Do you need me to find out?"
"You don't need to pay attention to the secrets of the villa, but you can check the former owners of the house and see if you can find anything." What Baitang wants to know most is where the owner of Banqi is, and whether he is the same as her. A magic cultivator who practices comprehension techniques. If you can find this person, you will know where the resources for this person's cultivation come from.
"Do you still want to see the other houses today?"
Baitang took out his phone and glanced at the time, it was half past ten. "Just go to the apartment in the city center."
Han Xiu then made an appointment with the agent of that apartment to see it. This time, the two drove directly to the parking lot under the apartment. The intermediary was an elite man named Zhong Tan.
Unlike Zhang Sheng, Zhong Tan didn't talk much and didn't express much. After rendezvous, take them directly to the seventh floor of the apartment. When I opened the door, I found a suite with two bedrooms and one living room. It was decorated in European style, not gorgeous, but exquisite.
When Bai Tang and Han Xiu were looking at the house, Zhong Qin briefly introduced the house information, then went to the living room and waited for them to see the room by themselves. Seeing his performance, Han Xiu shrugged his shoulders at Baitang. Has he ever seen such a middleman who can't chat. If someone really wanted to buy a house, he probably wouldn't want to see the house in his hands after seeing his indifferent appearance.
What Baitang found in this apartment were Feng Shui ornaments, but they were of no use to her, they were all ordinary ornaments.
"Have you finished reading?" Seeing Han Xiu nodding, Zhong Qin asked again, "Are you satisfied with the house?"
"We have to go back and think about it."
After hearing this, Zhong Tan nodded in understanding and did not continue. Han Xiu was used to him like this, but it was pleasing to the eye, so he couldn't help but chat with him a few more times when he went down. Only then did I discover that this middleman is not incapable of speaking, but he is unwilling to speak, but if you take the initiative to talk to him, he can talk to your heart's content.
"Miss, this is also a talent." Back in the car, Han Xiu said a few words of emotion to Zhong Tan and Bai Tang. "Shall we go to dinner now?"
Baitang mentioned the name of a nearby restaurant, and Han Xiu drove the car over.
When he came to the restaurant, Baitang had to lament his luck. As soon as they stepped in, Zhao Zhongchen and a young man walked into the restaurant from another direction. Almost at the same time, Zhao Zhongchen noticed Baitang's existence.
Seeing Baitang, Zhao Zhongchen's eyes quietly became sharper. He has been rooted in S City for so many years, and he never thought that because of a teenage girl, the accumulation of more than ten years would be wasted. If it weren't for the father of this person by his side, he might really fall into it and never turn over again. Fortunately, his luck was unstoppable, which allowed him to escape this catastrophe. Naturally, there was a lot of resentment towards Baitang as the source.
"Little sister, why did you leave without saying hello when you saw your uncle?" Zhao Zhongchen took a few steps up to stop Baitang, and when Baitang turned his head around, hiding the gloomy look in his eyes, he said with a smile, "It just so happens that uncle is here too. Why don't we sit at the same table for dinner?"
"No need, we don't know each other very well, do we?" Bai Tang dropped this sentence, smiled and walked to the front with Han Xiu.
"Uncle Chen, who is this girl?" Although the young man called Zhao Zhongchen his uncle, there was no respect for the elders in his expression, more like a kind of arrogance of the same generation or even superiors.
"Bai Jingyu's daughter Baitang." If he knew that throwing a bell at this little girl would make the Bai family and Zhou family cooperate, he would never have done so casually. "I'm the one who got Master Yuan involved in this matter."
Master Yuan is the young man's father. Hearing Baitang's name, he stepped forward and said with a shallow smile, "It's a good name. As for this matter, Uncle Chen doesn't have to feel guilty. There are mistakes, and there are always mistakes." There will be times when you can't take care of it. What's more, father just took this opportunity to put you on the bright side, and you don't have to suffer the grievances of the past."
Zhao Zhongchen knew that this was what the other party said on purpose, but he still couldn't help feeling warm, "Young Master Yuan, don't worry, except this time, I will never disappoint Master Yuan's expectations again. Just let Baitang see you and me together Together, will it affect Master Yuan?" The person who rescued him was Master Yuan, but the person who shot him had nothing to do with Master Yuan on the surface, so everyone thought that the person who shot him was standing behind him people.
"What's the matter? The young master of the Yuan family is very interested in Fengshui. It's only natural that he would ask you, a Fengshui master, for a few words." Yuan Xun smiled and replied lightly to Zhao Zhongchen's worries. "Besides, I'm afraid there are not many people in City S who can know me."
When Zhao Zhongchen heard this, he remembered that Yuan Xun's reputation outside did have a reputation for being fond of Fengshui, and he couldn't help but have a thought in his heart that the other party had expected such a day to send such a signal to outsiders. If it is really as he guessed, then this young man's mind is terrible.
He turned his head and looked over, but couldn't guess any more signals from the other person's face. "It's me who cares too much."
Yuan Xun smiled, and Zhao Zhongchen walked to the table behind Baitang and the others and sat down.
Seeing the table they chose, Bai Tang calmly handed over the task of ordering to Han Xiu who was opposite. When Han Xiu was ordering, he would occasionally glance at the table behind Baitang, but it was only enough to see the head sitting in front of him.
This is a private restaurant. Although the layout of the restaurant is not tall enough and there are no small private rooms, the traffic here has always been very large. And it is not uncommon to see people from different backgrounds like Yuan Xun and Bai Tang.
"Do you know that person?" From the moment he saw Zhao Zhongchen, Bai Tang noticed Yuan Xun beside him. He looked young, but what came out of those eyes, this child was definitely not simple. Moreover, this is a martial artist who has cultivated a very brilliant mind.
Han Xiu shook his head, "I have never seen him in the past few years in S City." If he had seen such an impressive young man, he would not be without impression, and there would be no news about him in S City.
"I heard Zhao Zhongchen call him Young Master Yuan and Father Yuan Ye." After sensing that Yuan Xun was a warrior, before Bai Tang spoke, he conveniently placed a barrier around them to prevent others from hearing it.
When Han Xiu heard these two names, his expression changed, and he stretched out his fingers and wrote a "b" and a word "jun" on the desktop.
It turned out to be someone from the military. Bai Tang looked at these two words thoughtfully. His position should not be low. Otherwise, a family of martial arts like the Han family would have no reason to be afraid of the Yuan family. With their background, they must have an intricate relationship with those people in the upper echelons of city b. "Have you received any news about this before?"
Han Xiu shook his head again, he would know that Yuan Xun came to S City, and after sending Baitang home, he would tell Young Master Han the news. He has never met Yuan Xun, the very famous Yuan Shao, but he has heard many rumors about him, and he is definitely not a playboy. Such a person came to S City silently, and got involved with Zhao Zhongchen, a feng shui master. It was not easy no matter how you looked at it.
Han Xiu had heard of Yuan Shaohao's feng shui preference, but when he met the real person, he didn't believe that the other party met Zhao Zhongchen because of the attention of feng shui. "If Miss wants to know about him, she still needs to ask Young Master Han for help." He can do his best here, but in City B, he is nothing.
Baitang will not understand the gap in it, "If you see him, except for Han Shaozhe, you should pretend that you haven't seen it."
"I see." Han Xiu knew that it was Baitang who didn't want him to intervene, so as not to startle the snake. After all, Yuan Shao was not easy to deal with.
After a meal, Baitang and Zhao Zhongchen left the restaurant together at about the same time.
When he turned around at the door, Yuan Xun suddenly turned around and looked at Baitang. With his back turned to him, Baitang walked with Han Xiu at a leisurely pace. With a smile on his lips, he turned around and told Zhao Zhongchen lightly, "This girl, don't touch her for now."
This was a direct warning so that he could not plan to take revenge on Baitang. Zhao Zhongchen felt a little uncomfortable at first, then thought about it in a blink of an eye, and asked cautiously: "Young Master Yuan is interested in her?"
"She's an interesting girl." Facing Zhao Zhongchen's thought-conscious expression, Yuan Xun didn't explain, "It's for your own good not to let you touch her. If you touch her, you will be the one who suffers, Uncle Chen."
Zhao Zhongchen didn't believe this. But Yuan Xun didn't have the obligation to explain clearly to him, so he left the words alone and ignored them.
Baitang returned to Bai's house and took out the five flags with a worried expression on his face. She knew some magic methods from Shen Tingjun, but she didn't have many methods for magic weapons.
In the end, Baitang just sealed the banner, but did not erase the mark on it. No matter when the time comes, she will find out the person herself, or wait for the other party to come to the door by herself, this mark is indispensable.
Not long after, Yu Qian came. Baitang and her went to Papa Bai's study for tutoring.
"Baitang, it's winter vacation, can I still come over to help you with tutoring?" Yu Qian asked suddenly during her break after an hour of school.
Baitang raised her gaze from the exercises, and Yu Qian, who was sitting across from her, was a little shy because she made this request, and she didn't seem used to asking for help. "Is Teacher Yu short of money?"
Bai Tang asked without the slightest malice, and Yu Qian spent a lot of time with her, and knew her character a little bit, so she didn't feel embarrassed being asked, and answered honestly: "It's a bit urgent."
"Something happened at home?" Baitang didn't ask about Taiqian's family, but she could tell from her usual clothes that her family was not in a good position. Now when I heard that she was in urgent need, the first thing that came to my mind was that there was an accident at the other party's house and she needed it urgently.
Yu Qian was silent for a while, then nodded. "If you don't need it, it doesn't matter." She will not feel inferior because of her poor family background, but she is not used to asking for help. If the situation was not different this time, she would not choose to say such things to her students.
"How much do you need? I can borrow it from you first." Baitang has a good sense of Qian and likes her teaching method, so she doesn't mind helping her when she is in trouble. "I'll let you type the IOU, don't worry."
Yu Qian still hesitated and asked her to borrow money from a child. Even if the other party was a child from a rich family and was not short of money, she felt unable to extend her hand.
"Teacher Yu, there are priorities. If you need it urgently, whoever you borrow money from is more important than your family's affairs?"
Yu Qian thought about it, Baitang was right, face is not as important as family members. As long as it's not money from unknown sources, why should she worry about whether she borrowed it from a child or from a friend, "Thank you, but I hope you borrowed it from me with the consent of your family."
Baitang smiled and assured her: "There is no problem with this."
Yu Qian also smiled gratefully, and the worries that had lasted for several days finally dropped the stone in her heart at this moment. "Thank you, Baitang."
After sending Yu Qian away, Baitang received a call from Han Shaozhe.
