Chapter 224 Li Ying and Qin Xiaoyun walked around the school to find out where the strangeness of the school came from. The two came to the back mountain and saw seven or eight workers cutting down locust trees. Qin Xiaoyun looked at the lush locust trees with a hint of surprise and a hint of anger on his face. He said with a little regret: "The locust trees are growing well, why are they cut down? It's a pity." Qin Xiaoyun excels in other aspects, but is a complete layman in Feng Shui. Li Ying explained, "The school was built on a former grave site, so the Yin energy is naturally heavy. Sophora trees are considered Yin wood in Feng Shui. The combination of the two is undoubtedly adding insult to injury. It would be strange if nothing happened to the school. In addition, a female teacher hanged herself in the Sophora japonica forest yesterday. The principal was worried about another accident, so he cut down all the Sophora japonica trees." Qin Xiaoyun had never thought that building a house was so particular and couldn't help but sigh, "So that's how it is! It's me who is so ignorant." Li Ying said: "Everyone has his own specialty. You just don't have the knowledge of Feng Shui." When Li Ying raised her eyes, she saw a dark shadow flash by. She chased after it hurriedly, but found nothing. It seemed that it had escaped. Whose body movements are so fast? But there is no doubt that the person just now was definitely not an ordinary person. Qin Xiaoyun saw Li Ying suddenly running towards the hillside at an incredibly fast speed. He wanted to follow her, but found that Li Ying had already run far away, so he could only stay where he was and wait for her. When he saw Li Ying coming back, he asked curiously, "What happened to you just now? Did you find anything unusual in the locust tree forest?"
"I just saw a dark shadow, but I didn't catch up with it." Li Ying said. There was a hint of surprise in Qin Xiaoyun's eyes. He had seen Li Ying's abilities before. It seemed that the man was not an ordinary person, as he could avoid Li Ying's pursuit. Who on earth is haunting in the locust tree forest? Qin Xiaoyun suddenly thought of a possibility, and he couldn't help but look at Li Ying, "Could that person just now be not a human, but a monster that has cultivated into a human, or a hermit master?" Li Ying: “I don’t know.” She didn't see the person in person, so she didn't know whether the man just now was a human, a ghost, or the hermit Qin Xiaoyun mentioned. "No matter who it is, the locust tree forest is very strange. Fortunately, the principal had the foresight to cut down the locust trees." Qin Xiaoyun sighed. Li Ying smiled and said nothing. Suddenly, a strong wind blew, and the locust tree was shaken by the wind, making a rustling sound, and the workers who were cutting trees had to stop their work. "Damn it! Why is there such a strong wind suddenly?" a worker said curiously. "I heard that a woman just died in the locust tree forest. It's very unlucky. We have to go back early in the afternoon to avoid being contaminated by the bad luck." said an older worker. The other workers obviously didn't believe it and said jokingly, "Uncle Li, don't you see what era it is now? You're still scaring people with your elders' nonsense. I don't believe that anymore." "Young man, don't be so sure about everything," said the older worker named Uncle Li. With a "crack", a half-cut locust tree suddenly broke and hit the worker who had just made fun of Uncle Li. The other workers were all dumbfounded, but Uncle Li, who was older and more experienced, reacted first. He pulled the worker just in time. Although the worker was not hit by the tree trunk, his arm was still injured by the branches. "Wang Gang, how are you? Are you seriously injured?" Uncle Li asked. Wang Gang's face was pale, he covered his bloody wound, and said with lingering fear: "Luckily you helped me, otherwise I would be lying on the ground now, unable to get out." Uncle Li was also frightened. He said with a trembling voice, "I heard that this private school is very evil. There have been some strange things happening recently. Several students committed suicide by jumping off the building for no reason. If my family wasn't in urgent need of money, I wouldn't have taken this job." The other people looked at each other in bewilderment. There was such a thing. "Wang Gang, judging from what happened today, you've been unlucky recently. I think you should stop doing this." Uncle Li advised kindly.
Wang Gang was also a little scared. His mother often warned him that when it comes to ghosts and gods, one is responsible if one believes in them, and not if one does not. But no matter whether one believes in them or not, one must not blaspheme the spirits. He couldn't help but wonder if he had said something he shouldn't have said today. For the sake of his own life, Wang Gang said, "I'm quitting, but I have to go to the principal and ask for medical expenses." Damn it! I can't not make any money, but have to spend money to see a doctor. That would be a waste of suffering. Wang Gang covered his wound and hurried to the principal to ask for medical expenses before school was over.
