The 19 Dead Houses

ned in pain, retching constantly.I don't dare get too close, he scares and disgusts me now."Mu... Xiao Qiao..." He groaned, looking at me, "You found her"I nodded and said, “What’s going on with you S...Song Wei bent down and flipped her younger brother over, muttering to herself about how well-behaved he used to be and how rebellious and irritable he had become now. Early love really is harmful.

She seemed calm and collected, not showing any concern about her family situation.

"Song Wei, isn't the ventilation in this room bad" I frowned and glanced around. There was only one sliding window, but outside was just the neighbor's wall, almost touching!

"Well, what's up" Song Wei tilted her head and looked at me.

"I think it's better to open the window and let the sunlight in," I had just said when suddenly his younger brother jerked.

"Ah!!" I took two steps back in fright, while Song Wei excitedly patted her brother's face.

"Xiao Qiao, look, he's reacting!" Song Wei said excitedly to me, while pulling back her brother's blanket and pinching his arms.

My scalp went numb, and I took a step back, because lying on her brother's bed was another person!

Ke Songwei couldn't see it. Jiang Qiyun had told her she was pure yang blood, unable to see ghosts. She couldn't see a withered ghost huddled under the blanket!

The apparition glanced at me, flinched, and closed its eyes to continue sleeping.

His younger brother sleeps in the same bed with a ghost every day!

"Song, Song Wei..." I had already moved to the door. "That is, I... I'll go first, can you send me off I'm afraid I'll get lost."

After I finished speaking, I immediately ran down and out of her house. That's when I felt my breathing ease up a bit.

Song Wei chased me out and asked, "Why are you running so fast What's the matter" I grabbed her hand and said, "I think there's a problem with the layout of your house, especially your brother's room. Maybe you should switch him to a different one—one that gets good ventilation and sunlight."

Song Wei frowned and said, "Do you think my house has bad feng shui"

“This... I wouldn't look at it either, or maybe you could find a master to take a look”

"How would I know where the master is There are plenty of fortune tellers on the street, though." Song Wei sighed.

"I'll go back and ask your family—in the meantime, just move your brother to a different room. He needs to rest properly and can't stay in this room anymore, absolutely not!" I gripped her hand anxiously.

Song Wei blinked and nodded. "Okay, seeing you so nervous... I'll wait for my dad to come back and then we'll switch."

When Jiang Qiyun appeared in my room, he immediately frowned and asked, “Where have you been getting yourself dirty again”

Gross stuff I'm getting goosebumps.

"I went to Song Wei's house to see his younger brother. As soon as I walked in, I felt something was wrong. Later, under his younger brother's quilt, I saw a ghost. The ghost also saw me, but it closed its eyes and continued to sleep, it didn't harm me." I told him honestly.

"Nonsense, you are inside and out my breath. Even an ordinary ghost wouldn't dare to offend you." Jiang Qiyun said impatiently.

Inside and out... I couldn't help but feel my ears getting hot. I quickly explained my feelings in detail.

Jiang Qiyun, upon hearing this, lightly twitched the corner of his lips. Was he smiling

"You're not cut out for the Tao and its arts, but you have a natural talent for Feng Shui."

"Huh"

"Listening to your description, that must be a living person residing in a dead house."

I got goosebumps and asked, "What does it mean to live in a dead house"

"The house was pressed against the walls of its neighbors on three sides, with windows too small and only one exit through a large door. Its structure resembled a tomb... Perhaps the surrounding houses were built later, so his brother has been greatly affected recently."

"Then, was her brother possessed by the female ghost The body that the ghost possessed should be his younger brother's crush."

"No, I took a look, his brother is suffering from Yin intrusion, he should just rest in the sun for a few days. Who knew there was another one lying at home, who would wake up Let her lie down for a while longer, she'll be dead." Jiang Qiyun reminded: "Don't meddle in their affairs, just give your advice. Whether or not to follow it is up to them."

I nodded. "I understand."

Being possessed by evil spirits could cause you to faint Spending too much time with ghosts could even be fatal Then how come I, and Jiang Qiyun… spent so long together and I'm perfectly fine

And now he stays with me for a long time every day, usually appearing in my room at night until I fall asleep.

"Didn't you say you were busy" I asked, puzzled by him lounging about in my room like he had nothing to do.

He snorted coldly: "A spiritual infant needs my yin energy."

Okay, I'm being over-sentimental again.

"What time do you usually leave I sometimes fall asleep and you're still here."

"When it turned from overcast to sunny, by daybreak, I left."

We didn't have much to say. The fear I had of him had dissipated, though there was still some resentment for his coldness and indifference.

But I have no right to blame him. We weren't together out of love, perhaps when this child is born, our relationship will be like a kite string, breakable at any moment.

He took the children, and I will grow old alone.

When I was half asleep, my phone suddenly vibrated violently, startling me. I looked at the time and it had just passed midnight.

Jiang Qiyun was indeed still in my room. He was propping his chin up with one hand, leaning against the window sill, his long legs propped up on my computer chair as he slept with his eyes closed.

It was Song Wei calling. I was afraid to wake Jiang Qiyun, so I whispered, "Hello... what is it..."

Song Wei's voice was terribly loud as she cried, "Xiao Qiao, that room really has a problem. You said today we couldn't stay in it, so I switched with my younger brother and went to sleep in his room... Sobbing, I had a nightmare!! I dreamed of a sickly man who said the bed was too crowded and told me to leave, or else I would never wake up! I was so scared that I came to sleep with Mom! Sobbing... Is there any way out Is our house haunted!"

"Uh…" How should I say this

According to Grandpa's teachings, some words, once spoken, become karmic hindrances.

As I was hesitating, a big hand snatched my phone away. Jiang Qiyun took the phone, pressed it to his ear, and said in a cold, hard voice, “You can either demolish and rebuild this house, leaving out the backyard to ensure ventilation and lighting throughout, or you can just move out.”

"Eh" Song Wei on the other end didn't react, and Jiang Qiyun hung up.

He put his phone back on the nightstand and said coldly, “Go to sleep.”

I'm both angry and amused. This guy is really something else. He even gets upset when I answer a phone call

Seeing him walk back to the window, I hesitated before saying, "If you have to stay here tonight, come cuddle up in bed with me... It's not like we haven't squeezed together before..."

He glanced at me, as if confirming if I was truly saying this.

I didn't say much, either. I pulled the covers around me and huddled up against the wall, leaving half the bed for him.

When my phone alarm went off the next day, I was the only one in the house. I don't even know if he managed to fall asleep in the end.

My WeChat is almost flooded by Song Wei... She sent a lot of messages, all basically saying: "ahhahaha, I'm sorry, I disturbed your sweet moment!"

Sweet my ass...

But her last message was a bit eye-opening: You guys are living together, huh

I raised my hand and touched my stomach. Besides the occasional warmth, there wasn't much reaction. Should I buy a pregnancy test to tryre a woman with a child, we won't dare fight back—we might not touch the child, but you, I could beat you up without any psychological pressure. Come on, confess everything. Tell us the truth, or face...
