C216 Adventures of the Ancestral Residence

Yun Chujin's home and Yun Hao's house were at opposite ends of each other, separated by only three acres of land.

After passing through the farmlands, Yun Hao quickly arrived at the entrance of his own courtyard.

Looking from a distance, one would feel that the mansion was in ruins. Looking at it from up close, one wouldn't even have the slightest intention of entering it.

Starting from the center of the room, there was a shocking crack. Half of the crack had already sunk down a dozen centimeters, and the two sides were not even. The southern wall was already occupied by vines and climbing tigers. These plants were everywhere as they followed along the broken windows and extended into the house. The door was also in tatters, and some unknown animal had thrown a hole at the foot of the door.

Half of the wall had also collapsed while the other half was covered by vines. One side of the gate was already collapsed on the ground while the other side was hanging on the wall with difficulty.

When he stood at the entrance of the courtyard, Yun Hao's mind was suddenly filled with the desire to return home. What was there to look at? Just leave! There probably wasn't anything worth taking out from it.

"Let's go, Che." With that, Yun Hao turned around.

Yun Che immediately pulled Yun Hao back, and said: "Hey, hey, Brother Hao, Brother Hao, what are you doing! In a short period of time, your ancestral home will be demolished, and everything inside will be cleaned up. If you don't go in now, you won't have another chance in the future. "

"Sigh, alright then. Let's go in and take a look."

In fact, Yun Hao was just joking around a moment ago.

Just as Yun Che had said, the house was about to be demolished. No matter what, she had to go in for one last look.

Yun Hao pushed open the half of the gate hanging on the wall, and the moment Yun Hao pushed it open, the gate seemed to have completed its mission, and with a "Ka Cha" sound, it fell onto the ground.

Yun Hao shook his head and walked into the courtyard.

Although it was already covered with weeds, one could still see the original layout of the yard.

There was a well on the left, and a dead peach tree. There was a table under his command, which had turned into a small mound of flowers and plants.

Looking at this dilapidated and desolate scene, in fact, in Yun Hao's heart, he wasn't really that disappointed, because ever since he could still remember, he hadn't stayed in this house for even a single night.

So... Yun Hao did not even have the key to his ancestral home.

Fortunately, the house was already broken down to this state, and it didn't matter whether the key was there or not. The weathered wooden door, Yun Hao gave it a light push, almost breaking into pieces.

After the door was pushed open by Yun Hao, some dust and broken rocks fell down from the walls.

Yun Hao pulled Yun Che back two steps, and said: "Wait, retreat two steps."

Looking at the house, Yun Hao was worried that it would collapse at any time, and did not dare to recklessly walk in.

After hesitating for a moment, Yun Hao said to Yun Che: "Che, wait for me outside. I will go in to take a look."

"I want to go in with you." Yun Che said.

Yun Hao shook his head and said: "Don't, you stay outside and look, I keep feeling like this house is falling down."

"It can't be. It has already been so many years. If it were to fall, it would have already collapsed." Yun Che said.

"I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. I can go in by myself, and if it really goes down, you can help me call for more people, right?" Yun Hao said.

"Pei pei pei, jinx!" Yun Che walked a few steps back and said: "Okay, I won't go in, I'll wait for you outside.

"You're not afraid, but neither am I."

Yun Hao said as he walked into the room. He crossed the threshold and entered the hall. Once he walked into this old and run-down house, Yun Hao felt a wave of cold and damp. Maybe it was because it had rained two days ago, but the house was leaking again.

After the rain fell into the room, it was unable to get the sunlight to shine on it, which was why it kept being damp and cold, and even emitted a moldy, rotten stench.

Taking a step inside, Yun Hao suddenly felt his legs go soft, he looked down, and saw that it was a dead mouse.

The time of the rat's death shouldn't be too long, its body hasn't become stiff yet.

Although Yun Hao was not really a superstitious person, stepping on a dead mouse the moment he entered the door, he still felt somewhat unlucky.

After removing his foot from the dead mouse's corpse, Yun Hao started to look around the whole hall. The walls had been broken into pieces, and all of the dust had fallen down, and in the middle of the hall was a small Ancestral Hall, where the statues were already covered in dust, and in front of the Ancestral Hall was a small table, where the legs were probably bitten by rats or other things.

From the looks of it, there was nothing worth taking from the hall, so he walked to another room.

The doors to every room were all tightly closed, but due to the passage of time, these wooden doors were no longer able to play any role in stopping them. Yun Hao merely needed to push open the door a few times, and then, he would be able to open it.

Whether it was the master bedroom or the kitchen and bathroom, they were all signs of depression.

Yun Hao tried to open a cabinet, and the moment the cabinet was opened, a dozen of rats came out. Without even thinking, one could tell that even though there were some things inside the cabinet, they had already been bitten clean by the wild rats.

After looking through several rooms, Yun Hao finally found something that even a few rats couldn't do anything about.

An inkstone, a rusty kitchen knife, and a fire pincer under a firewood stove … Honestly speaking, even if Yun Hao took these things out, they would be useless to him. But other than these, he could not find anything else that was completely unharmed.

Therefore, Yun Hao could only hold the kitchen knife and the ink stone in one hand and the fire pincer in the other, preparing to leave the ancestral home.

When he once again walked from the kitchen to the main hall, just as he was about to leave, his gaze landed on the statue on the ancestral hall once again.

Although the statue on the temple was covered in dust, it still … If the kitchen knife and the fire pincer were useless, he might even be able to take the statue out and worship it.

Thus, Yun Hao placed the three items in his hands on the table with broken legs and walked towards the statues in the ancestral hall.

He clasped his hands together and bowed towards the statue. He then stretched out his hand to wipe away the spider silk from the statue, preparing to remove the statue from the ancestral hall.

He used one hand to hold the statue's waist and the other hand to hold the head. When he was about to take it off, he found that the statue seemed to be fixed in the ancestral hall.

"Can't take it off?" Yun Hao increased his strength and tried to break free.

Crack!

All of a sudden, the base of the statue emitted a loud noise.

Immediately afterwards, the entire room began to shake.
