After the banquet, Sun Lu sent Duolong to the door and personally helped Duolong get into the sedan.
"Sir, this is a small gift and not respectful. Please don't take it personally."
A hand stretched out from the sedan and took the gift into the sedan. , stretched out his hand again and waved.
"Congratulations!"
When Duolong's sedan disappeared from sight, Sun Lu smiled and hurriedly gave orders.
"Tell the brothers, it's a big job, and we'll start working tomorrow!"
"Brother, what's the job?"
"Turning down now Build a new alley in Chuixiao Alley!"
"But brother, it is said that there is something evil about this Chuixiao Alley"
"Hey, those things in the rumors. , Most of them are rumors. This is a big deal, and the money given by the Yamen is quite large."
"Well, we all listen to Brother Sun!"
.... ..
The first day.
Duolong was present in person.
Sun Lu presided over the groundbreaking ceremony. After Duolong and him offered three incense sticks to worship ghosts and gods, the demolition and reconstruction work officially started.
When the sun went down after working that day, some workers heard the melodious and faint sound of pipa playing from deep in the alley.
Because it was already dark, the depths of the alley were very dark, and none of the workers had the courage to go in and take a look. They just felt that the sound of the pipa made them feel uncomfortable.
That night, someone reported the matter to Sun Lu.
"Sun Tou, I heard this with my own ears, and it is absolutely true."
"Old Li, you are old, are you too tired from work today? , are you hallucinating?"
"Sun Tou, although I am older, my body is no worse than those of the younger ones! What's more, there were more than a dozen workers present at the time. I heard it."
"You heard it all?"
"Yes."
"Okay, I know about this. I'll go find someone tomorrow. Let’s see if there are still people living in that alley.”
That night, Sun Lu happily ate out and packed some beef to take home.
As soon as I walked to an alley that I usually walked home, I saw a woman in white walking from the opposite side.
On weekdays, Sun Lu has done business and made money, and he also likes to go to romantic places to have fun.
Although the woman opposite was dressed plainly, she walked with a windy air and exuded a literary and artistic temperament. She was very similar to the entertainers in Rugui Tower.
It’s just that the sky is too dark and I can’t see clearly.
Although Sun Lu is lustful, he also knows not to look at anything inappropriate.
I passed by the woman in white without squinting, nor did I think of taking a closer look at the woman’s appearance.
As a result, just when the two of them passed each other, Sun Lu suddenlyA sound as thin as a mosquito's moan was heard.
"Stop the work quickly, otherwise someone will be injured."
Sun Lu stopped and thought, what did the woman mean when she suddenly said this?
But when I looked back, there was no human figure anywhere?
Sun Lu drank a lot today and couldn’t help but slap his head. Maybe he heard it wrong because he was drunk.
It’s all an illusion!
When I got back, I lay on the bed and fell asleep.
......
The next day.
Not long after the construction started, the front beam of a house fell off for no apparent reason, injuring a worker.
When someone came to report to Sun Lu, he was still lying on the bed, fast asleep.
"Suntou, no good, something happened at the construction site!"
Those who do this fortification are most afraid of something happening at the construction site.
Sun Luna woke up immediately after drinking the wine.
"Quick, take me there and have a look."
Without having time to wash his face, Sun Lu put on some clothes and left with the worker.
When we arrived at the construction site, the worker had been rescued from under the beam.
Sun Lu knew it was broken as soon as he touched it.
The worker was so painful that his face was covered with big beads of sweat.
"Take this brother for treatment. The medical expenses will be counted as mine. After the treatment, take a good rest at home. The working hours during this period of rest will still be counted."
The worker After hearing this, I thanked him repeatedly.
Two workers brought a stretcher and carried the person away.
The other workers saw that Sun Tou was doing things fairly, so they didn’t say much and continued working.
When Sun Lu returned home and had lunch, the more he thought about it, the more something was wrong.
He remembered what happened the night before.
Is that woman in white someone who came here to give me advice?
Thinking of this, Sun Lu found another Taoist priest he often cooperated with and held a Dharma meeting at the entrance of the alley.
"Don't worry, even if there are some evil spirits in this alley, I will definitely go there after I finish this spell."
"Thank you, Taoist Master."
Sun Lu handed a letter of money to the Taoist.
......
The third day.
The morning was uneventful.
Sun Lu went to the construction site to see that everything was normal, so he stopped by to visit the worker who was injured yesterday.
The fracture position has been restored, and the injury is not serious. It will take about three months to recover as before.
"You can rest in peace and recuperate. All the expenses during this period of recuperation will be paid to me."
After once again appeasing the workers and their families, Sun Lu returned home for lunch.
Everything was back on track, but before Sun Lu had finished his lunch, another worker hurriedly came to find him.
"Sun Tou, something happened again!"
After Sun Lu heard this, the bowl and chopsticks fell to the ground, smashing into pieces.
The accident this time was moreIt was serious last time.
In the house that had been demolished, there were workers carrying stones. Who knew they were impartial? The ground collapsed where the worker was standing, and he fell into the pit along with a large amount of gravel and sawdust. .
When he was lifted up, he had only one breath left and there were many fractures all over his body.
Before telling Sun Tou, he was sent directly to the doctor by his coworkers.
Sun Lu quickly followed the worker to the doctor.
Fortunately, the person was rescued, but the injury was serious and he needed to rest for at least half a year.
This made Sun Lu frown.
Isn’t it weird that two accidents happened just three days after the construction started?
Moreover, some workers reported that they heard the faint sound of pipa again while working.
In the evening, Sun Lu drank heavily outside and did not go home until the second watch.
This time, I met the woman in white at the same place.
At that time, Sun Lu felt that the woman must be an expert and came to give him guidance.
As he approached, Sun Lu bowed to the woman and said, "This female master, you must be here to give me some advice. Please stay and give me some advice."
This time, the woman’s voice was no longer as thin as a mosquito. Instead, she shouted sternly: “You are really ignorant. I have told you to stop, otherwise something will happen. You just don’t stop, but you still find me.” It’s the way of a Taoist priest, so it’s no wonder that I was a bit harsh in this matter today.”
Sun Lu was stunned at first after hearing what the woman said.
But he is an old businessman after all and has a quick mind.
This woman is not an expert who advises her, but her opponent who stops her!
Sun Lu raised his head, wanting to see what the woman who was against him looked like.
This glance was so careless that it almost made Sun Lu pee in fear.
The woman was dressed in white and had fair skin, showing an unworldly temperament.
But that face...
With bulging eyes and a long tongue, she looked like a female ghost!
Sun Lu was so frightened that his spine ran cold, he closed his eyes and shouted.
When he opened his eyes again, the female ghost had disappeared out of thin air.
Sun Lu dared to stop and ran home crawling on the ground.
That night, Sun Lu became confused and unconscious.
