Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart Chapter 371: Millennium Ghost

The two flew off the eaves and left, while the people inside were still searching through both inside and outside.

"This is really strange, they clearly ca in, so why are they nowhere to be seen?"

The leading beggar scratched his head, completely puzzled.

"Boss, we’ve searched the alleys all over, haven’t even seen a single shadow of a ghost."

The leading beggar spat, "What bad luck!"

"Let’s go!" He looked at the others, "Let’s go back and find those two girls!"

However, when they returned to the street, the two girls had already disappeared.

One beggar sat directly against the wall, sullen-faced, "I thought we’d feast tonight, but in the end, lost the waterlon and didn’t even pick up the sesa seeds."

anwhile, Duan Yunfei and Shen Qinglan had successfully reached the ho of a broker nad Chen.

"I wonder, which street or alley are you two planning to buy a courtyard from? Do you want a big one or a small one?" The broker asked them with a smile.

"On which street does the Duan Mansion reside?" Shen Qinglan asked Duan Yunfei.

Duan Yunfei replied, "Rich Man Street, Fortune Alley."

This na...

One hears it and knows it’s a place where wealthy people live!

"Duan Mansion on Rich Man Street, Fortune Alley?" The broker was startled, "Is this gentleman from Yongning Manor?"

"No." Duan Yunfei said plainly, "It’s just a bit related."

"Still impressive!" The broker laughed, "Being connected to Yongning Manor, I expect this gentleman is not a simple man!"

Duan Yunfei just smiled without speaking.

Shen Qinglan glanced at him lightly but did not expose his lie, instead looking at the broker and asking, "Do any wealthy families still have a courtyard available?"

"Well..." The broker hesitated, "There is one, but I’m afraid miss might not dare to stay!"

Shen Qinglan said, "Mr. Chen, please speak frankly."

"That courtyard is quite new, just sold a few months ago, but the family said it was haunted, and left with a refund shortly after."

Had it not been for knowing Duan Yunfei was sowhat connected to Yongning Manor, the broker certainly wouldn’t have spoken frankly.

Haunted?

Could ghosts really exist in this world?

Shen Qinglan couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows, whispering, "How is this haunting business?"

The broker said, "It’s like this, two months ago, on the night of the Ghost Festival, two guards of that family were patrolling the courtyard when they saw a shadow flash by. Thinking it was an assassin, they chased after it, but who would have thought halfway through, the shadow disappeared into thin air, and suddenly a cold wind rose around. Soon after, they heard sad and miserable cries."

"Later, the two guards were so shocked that they ran back to call others and went over together to check, only to find the crying had stopped, but then they started hearing shouts of injustice, the sounds transforming from sorrowful to piercing and abrasive. They called a Taoist priest to look, who said this was an ancient fierce ghost that couldn’t be driven away, advising them to move as soon as possible, or it would surely bring trouble."

"Oh?" Duan Yunfei raised his eyebrows with interest, "I’ve lived for over ten years and walked thousands of tis at night, yet never seen a single little ghost, let alone so ancient fierce ghost."

The broker flattered, "That’s because you’re fortunate, hence haven’t encountered any."

Duan Yunfei chuckled, "May I ask, Mr. Chen, could you take us to visit that courtyard? And incidentally, et the ancient fierce ghost?"

Upon hearing this, the broker’s expression changed drastically, "You an... at night?"

"Naturally!" Duan Yunfei smiled and said, "Aren’t ghosts supposed to appear at night?"
