Siheyuan: Nemesis of Evil People, Specializing in Old Beasts

Lin Yebai, twenty-eight years old, is the sole heir to a dilapidated ancient house in the suburbs of Beijing. On the day his parents died, he received a yellowed letter with only one sentence in it: "Leave the things in the house to those who can take care of them." He dragged his luggage into the city and took over No. 36 Guntong Hutong in Nancheng, a three-in-one courtyard house. It looked shabby from the outside, but it was ridiculously big inside and so cold that even a sparrow wouldn't dare to leave. What's even more outrageous is that this house has a built-in "listening to opera" function: as long as anyone with evil intentions and greed enters the courtyard, he can hear a dead man singing opera in the middle of the night, singing about the bad things he has done in his life. After singing, you have to repay the debt. How to pay it back? Loss of life, misfortune, loss of family and life, will be repaid slowly. Lin Yebai called this ability—ghost house rent collection. Outside Courtyard No. 36 Is the nationally famous "Beast Quadrangle". Silly Zhu wanted to scheme against his lunch box, Xu Damao wanted to cheat his salary, the Jia family wanted to dominate his house, Qin Huairu wanted to cry poverty and suck blood... Lin Yebai smiled. "Come here, stay and listen to the show." From that day on, No. 36 Courtyard of Guntong Hutong became the cleanest place in the entire hutong. Because bad guys can get in but can't get out. And Lin Yebai became the first person that all the old beasts thought of when they couldn't sleep.
