Think carefully and fear: roommate

Chapter 8

something happened.

I have two houses, the 100-square-meter house I live in, and a 55-square-meter house that I have been renting.I live in this house by myself, the location is good, the third floor, a good floor, the price I set is also suitable, and it will be sold soon.

But small houses are troublesome.

The little girl who rented a house swallowed medicine and committed suicide.

That little girl is a nice person, and she has never paid rent, so why can't she think about it all of a sudden?I don't know why.

You said it was all right!

Who doesn't ask when they buy a house? If this happens, everyone cares. This house is in the hands of others. There is no other way. Let's keep renting it.Lease it for a few years, and when this matter fades away, you can sell it.

I have to make another trip, which is really troublesome.

But I'm open-minded, I can't entrust an intermediary, I have to personally check the tenant.Even if the rent is low, if the people are nice, there must be few things. If something goes wrong, I have to run back and forth, and I can't afford it.

A group of house inspectors came here before. There was a college student who was always smiling. He was also clean and looked good.But he is a student after all, and money is tight. He thinks the rent of 800 yuan per month is expensive, and he himself said that he can afford the rent of 500 yuan per month.

This is no longer negotiable.Although the location of my house is not good, and the property in the community is not doing well, 500 a month is too low.

I am now hoping that the little girl who is looking at the house today can be more reliable.

Hey, someone knocked on the door, it seems that someone is coming.

I opened the door, and there was a girl standing outside the door. She looked less than 30, but she was upright, well-dressed, and looked reliable, not bad.

"Auntie, hello, I'm looking at the house."

"come in."

I turned around and walked back, took a few steps across the aisle, and turned my head to find that she was standing still, her eyes kept looking at the ground.

Oh, she is looking for slippers.

"There's no need to change your shoes. The house has been empty for a while, and the dust is falling. I have to clean it later, so you can come in directly."

"it is good."

After she nodded, she put on her shoes and entered the house.

I showed her around the house.

I can see that she wants to rent it.I've got to take my chances, and he's a good guy.

"Auntie, can I rent this house for a long time?"

Long-term rental, wish for it!

"Yes." I nodded quickly, "Is the little girl working or studying here?"

"Work."

"What kind of work?"

"That's right, that's right..." The young woman frowned and pulled her hair. "I used to be a reporter. Now that the newspaper office is in a recession, I switched to self-media. I think it's a freelance job."

Freelancing is unstable, which is not good.

"Auntie, can I sit for a while?" The young woman pointed to the shoes on her feet, "The heels are a bit high."

"Sit down, sit down."

We both sat on the sofa, and I continued to inquire.

"Is it from your house?"

"No, from Shandong."

"From the south, it's no wonder they don't have an accent."

"My boyfriend came back to study for a Ph. D. after working for two years. It will take at least four years. I work wherever I want, so I followed."

"How many years have you been talking?"

"It's been more than four years, and next year he's stable, and we're going to get married."

My boyfriend, Dr., has a stable relationship. Not bad, I want to rent it to her even more.

"Auntie, is 1000 monthly rent okay?"

"can."

My positioning is between 800 and 1500. This girl doesn't seem to be a troublesome master, so one thousand is one thousand.

"Girl, I think you're good. If you want to rent this house, we'll sign a contract. If you pay three months' rent at a time, I won't charge you a deposit, okay?"

"Okay. Auntie, let me ask one more question. How about the furniture at home? I want to change some furniture."

"The furniture is old, I don't want it anymore, I give it to you, you can change it if you want."

"Okay, let's sign the contract, Auntie, I'll give you the money, and a copy of the ID card is enough."

"Ah."

When she turned to pick up the handbag, I heard a crisp sound of metal falling to the ground. I lowered my head and opened it. It was a cross, and I picked it up.

"Girl, is this yours?"

The moment she saw the cross I picked up, her expression changed, and she wiped her neck nervously to confirm.

"Well. Yes, it's mine."

Her face was full of horror. After she took the cross from my hand, she carefully looked at it again and again, and then said to me with a sorry face: "Auntie, I'm sorry, I will not rent this house."

This is so weird too!

"Girl, what's the matter? Didn't you just say it well? Why didn't you suddenly stop renting?"

She looked at me for a long time, gritted her teeth, and told the truth.

"Auntie, I have believed in Catholicism since I was a child. There is a church next to my house. The church is quite old, and it existed in the Republic of China. Now the priest in charge watched me grow up and treated me very well. It is the cross that he put on the altar that year when he and all the priests and nuns in our place held the feast of the Holy Corpus and Blood of Christ."

I don't know much about Christianity, and I was confused. She probably saw it and explained it to me.

"Think about it this way, the object that the eminent monk has consecrated."

As soon as she said that, I understood, and at the same time, my heart skipped a beat.

"The cross and the chain are silver, look, Auntie."

She lifted it up, and I looked at it carefully.

"Is it dark in many places?"

"Yes."

"The priest told me that if I go into a bad place, it will remind me. Although it is there, I am not afraid of evil spirits, but my boyfriend wants to come here from time to time, which is not good. So, I'm sorry, I won't rent it anymore."

"It's not so evil."

Although I said so, my heart was already a little bit drummed.

"There's an old saying you should have heard, it's better to believe something than nothing."

After she finished speaking, she stood up with an apologetic expression on her face.

"Auntie, I'm really sorry. In addition, I think you should find someone to do ceremonies. Our country is mainly based on Buddhism and Taoism. My belief is imported, and it is not caused by evil spirits. Our church may not be able to control it. Auntie, sorry gone."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay."

It's a pity, but it seems impossible for her to rent it, forget it.

I sent her out, and I started tidying up the house, thinking about it while tidying up.

It's not that I haven't thought about it. I didn't invite someone to think that the matter is not so serious. I have no grievances or enmity with the dead girl, which is a bit unnecessary.I am also afraid that my sons will dislike my feudal superstition if they find out.

If you don't want to do a religious service, it's only two to three thousand yuan for an individual, not much, just for peace of mind.

After tidying up the house, I went downstairs.

As soon as I got out of the corridor, I saw a Taoist priest holding a compass.

He was young, about 30 years old, staring at the compass with his head down, walking back and forth in front of the two unit buildings in front.

I was a little curious, so I stopped and watched for a while.

After a while, he stood in front of the apartment building where I lived, and pinched his fingers for a long time, mumbling in his mouth that he didn't know what he was muttering.After muttering for a while, he looked down at the compass and rushed to the entrance of the corridor.

I stopped him.

"Little Daoist."

"Wuliang Tianzun, aunt, what are you doing to stop the poor Taoist?"

I frowned, isn't this person crazy?

"Master Dao, I live in this building, what is this?"

"Oh, master made a big divination, saying that this place seems to have the meaning of the birth of evil spirits, and the exact location cannot be predicted. My brother and I had to search carefully one by one. Dare I ask if there is a woman who died in this upstairs recently? ?”

I froze for a moment.

"Indeed."

"That's it. Compass now, there is a grudge here."

I looked at the Taoist priest again and again, as if he was a little bit good, let him have a look?

"Master Dao, one of my tenants committed suicide, can I trouble you to visit my house?"

"Oh." The Taoist stared at me for a while, then smiled.

"The poor way is willing to go."

I led the Taoist priest to the house, he looked around with the compass, smiled and shook his head.

"You don't have to worry, the root cause is not here. It's just that this house is too empty, and now that the evil spirits are about to be born, this self-inflicted woman is unwilling to be reconciled, and has left a trace of resentment. If she loses popularity, troubles will inevitably arise."

The Taoist took the compass.

"Fortunately, those who have no strong resentment and enough horoscopes can live in peace, but those with low fate are not suitable for living."

"Then how do you think the horoscope is not enough?"

"First of all, we need to check whether the five elements are missing or not, and then look at how much is the fate. A person's birthday, year, month, day, hour, corresponds to the five elements, and the year is the sky. For example, Xiaodao I was born in 89, and this year... "

There is a lot to say here, and I was stunned to hear it.

The Taoist priest probably saw that I didn't understand, so he stopped and smiled dryly.

"It's complicated, and it's reasonable for you to not understand."

Now I'm in trouble.I consider myself to be a kind person, and this Taoist priest speaks in a decent way, not like lying.If this is true, in case my tenants do not have enough lives, if I rent it, wouldn't it be a disguised form of harm.

"Master Dao, I want to rent this house, and I don't understand the five elements and gossip. If my tenant doesn't have enough characters, if I rent it to him, it will be tantamount to harming someone. Would you like to give me a solution? "

After finishing speaking, I took out 300 yuan.

"You put this little thing away first."

"No need." The Taoist priest waved his hands again and again, "Money and wealth are foreign objects, besides, you don't need to troubleshoot this house." The Taoist priest thought for a while, "Your kindness, I would like to thank the tenant for your kindness. , living here for a long time, life is in danger, Xiaodao has a plan, which can save some trouble, you are willing to listen."

"You say."

"Auntie, all the immortals in the heavens and the underworld have their birthdays. Those who are born on the birthday of the immortal will become attached to the immortal after birth. They have difficulties, and the immortal has no reason to ignore them. You
