Chapter 107
The little girl's expression lingers in Xiao Yi's mind. It's not that it's so terrible, but that she feels pitiful, as if she is controlled by a demon. She walks to the abyss step by step, and then takes another step forward and will be crushed to pieces. But she has no choice but to be afraid and crying, and is lonely and helpless.
Xiao Yi had no way to help her now, so he had to shake his head to make himself sober, stop thinking about it, and hurry up and do what he will do.
Soon, Xiao Yi arrived at the nearest house that had been demolished, and bricks, stones and scrap wood were piled up in mess. Judging from the dilapidated appearance, it should have been demolished for a while.
Stopped the motorcycle aside and asked Si Wu to stand here and wait for him. Xiao Yi changed his clothes back and walked alone to the house on the left where the demolished house was left.
"Bangbangbang" knocks on the door.
After a while, a small crack was opened. An aunt looked at Xiao Yi through the crack and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
"I'm not here to look for someone, I want to ask you something." Xiao Yi said with a smile, with a very good attitude.
But it can be seen that the aunt was still very alert. The door was still a very small gap, and she said with a tone full of doubt and uncertainty: "What are you asking?"
"Oh, why did the family next to you demolish it?" Xiao Yi asked quickly.
"What are you asking about this?" the aunt was puzzled.
"I'm from the Land Bureau, come here to learn about the situation of the houses that have been demolished." Xiao Yi casually made up an excuse.
"Shouldn't your land bureau have files of these houses?" The more the aunt looked at her, the more she felt that the young man in front of her was not a good person.
"Oh, haha." Xiao Yi laughed awkwardly, delaying the time and finding a reason.
"Well, the colleague who was in charge of this matter at that time had a record problem, so let's investigate it from a new perspective." Xiao Yi said.
"Then you just need to ask the owner of this family directly. What are we doing in the neighborhoods?" The aunt felt that the young man was lying to her.
Why do you have so many questions? Xiao Yi shouted in his heart.
"We don't know where this family has gone." Xiao Yi simply said he didn't know.
"Aren't you a government member? How can you not know?" The aunt had already confirmed that the young man had a problem.
"The government has many departments, and the movement of personnel is not under the jurisdiction of our Land Bureau, so we don't have the whereabouts of this family." Xiao Yi breathed a sigh of relief and felt that he had finally returned.
The aunt looked at Xiao Yi, and Xiao Yi was quietly waiting for the aunt's reply. Time seemed to be still. After five seconds, he heard a "bang". The door was closed, followed by two words from the aunt, "Liar!" Then Xiao Yi was left alone in the wind with a messy stomach.
Walking back to the motorcycle silently, Xiao Yi took a deep breath to calm down his mood, then lowered his head and pondered, thinking about how to ask why these houses were demolished? He went up and asked people in a daze, and must come up with a perfect reason.
After thinking for a long time, I thought about it and couldn't come up with a good idea. Who would answer such a strange question? In the end, there was no way, I could only practice the true knowledge.
Xiao Yi walked directly to the house on the right, and "Bangbang" knocked on the door, and a middle-aged man opened the door.
The person who opened the door looked at the person in front of him and asked directly: "Who are you looking for?"
It was the same thing as before, and Xiao Yi said it again, but when he dealt with the middle-aged man, he was much more at ease than the aunt just now.
The middle-aged man was talking quickly. After chatting for five sentences, the door closed.
It was still a "bang", "Get out, crazy!"
"If you don't say it, don't say it, who are you scolding me?" Xiao Yi felt in pain and returned to the motorcycle again.
"Si Wu, I'm sad." Xiao Yi looked at Si Wu, hoping to get comfort.
Si Wu patted Xiao Yi to show comfort.
"Forget it, change the position." Xiao Yi said as he rode on the motorcycle, and then said to Si Wu: "Come up and prepare to set off."
Taking Si Wu and Xiao Yi rode a motorcycle to the nearest park. That's what he thought. Since the territory could not ask anything, he could only think of other solutions, such as asking the well-informed aunt again. At this point, the aunt should have come out and prepared to dance the square dance.
Without further ado, Xiao Yi had arrived at a park in a blink of an eye. Sure enough, some aunts had gathered together and were ready to jump up together.
At this time, the aunts were in groups of three or five, all happily chatting.
Xiao Yi looked at it, chose the most lively crowd, walked over, and stood next to him, which seemed abrupt.
The aunts were talking about the marriage of Xiao Li's daughter, which was very lively.
Xiao Yi wanted to interrupt several times, but he had no idea what to say. The aunts said too tightly, and a bunch of silly mouths could not open their mouths at all. In the end, Xiao Yi could not bear it anymore and had to shout: "Do you know why so many houses were demolished!"
This tone was not like asking a question at all. All the aunts looked at Xiao Yi. Just like seeing a lunatic, Xiao Yi was calm and thought to himself, it was so embarrassing.
"It seems like it's haunted." One of the aunts said in a low voice.
The conversation was answered and the topic was together. At this moment, the aunts began to talk about this and told all the news they knew.
"Why did the East Street house be demolished?" Xiao Yi asked a question. The East Street house was the one that Xiao Yi had just visited.
"Hey, I know, it seems that someone died in the family. Later, someone got a strange disease and could not be cured no matter how they were treated. Finally, a mage was hired. The mage said that there was an evil spirit, so just move it away from here."
"Hey, why did the house be demolished later?" someone asked.
"After moving away, the strange disease has not yet recovered, and this family went to find the mage again. The mage said that it would be better if the house was demolished."
"The mage demolished the house with just one word? It's impossible." Someone questioned.
"How is it impossible? That strange disease is very evil. People who get sick suffer from pain all over the body every midnight, and life is worse than death. When the mage said that the family directly demolished the house."
"I'll get cured after the disease is removed?" someone asked.
"It's good to demolish this room. You're not evil."
"This is why so many houses were demolished?" Xiao Yi asked in an instant.
"No, the Jiangyuanxiang family is not for this reason. It seems that it was bought by a rich man and then demolished it directly, but after the demolition, there was no movement."
"Hey, I know one more..."
Xiao Yi just heard about the reasons why seven or eight houses were demolished. Most of them were because they had a strange disease or had evil spirits at home, so they moved away to remove the evil spirits.
"Do you know the biggest thing that has happened recently, the fire case on Wuchi West Road?" Xiao Yi immediately became energetic when he heard the four words Wuchi West Road.
"You can't know this." Everyone responded.
"I heard that the youngest daughter of this family had had a strange disease. The person who rented his house asked for a few talismans from the nearest temple and posted them at home. Unexpectedly, the little girl's illness was cured. Later, a wizard passed by and said that their family would have a bloody disaster in the nearest place. Only by demolishing the house can we avoid this difficulty."
"Where did the mage come from this? Why are he there?" asked someone.
"Who knows, there may be more than one mage."
"Are there so many Taoist priests these days?"
"There are so many, you don't know. This Taoist priest is making money. Who has died? If you put on a Taoist robe and jump into a god for a few days, you will get thousands of dollars. I have a relative..."
Hey hey, what's going on? The topic went astrayed? Xiao Yi cried silently in his heart, but he couldn't ignore it, and had to be regarded as an idiot again.
"Auntie, you haven't finished what you said just now!" The others really looked at Xiao Yi like an idiot.
"Yes, where did I just talk about it?"
"Dropping the house to ward off evil spirits." Xiao Yi replied quickly.
"Yes, yes, the mage said that the house was demolished to ward off evil spirits, but the family refused. Moreover, his daughter's illness was almost cured, so he ignored the mage's words. Unexpectedly, just a few days later, a big fire burned all four people to death, and the people who rented the house also hanged themselves. It was really miserable."
"Oh, four people died like this, alas." The others said it was too miserable.
When Xiao Yi heard this, he understood the general situation. It would be a waste of time to continue listening. It would be better to prepare early and go to the East Street house at midnight to find out.
