Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Town

"Brother Zhou, uncle, look at this hairpin, I can be very sure that this is the hairpin that Sister Zhao wears on her head!"

"It seems that Zhao Shuangzi and Zhang Huiwen have really been here..."

"Then let's catch up!

The three of them nodded in agreement, and immediately sped up their march. It was already evening, and although the mountain on the opposite side did not seem to be far away, when I actually walked up, I found that there was still a gap between the distance visible to the naked eye and the actual distance.

Seeing that it was almost dark, they were only halfway there, but here they found a quiet town.

The town looks a little shabby, but it's fairly clean. So they proposed to rest here for the night tonight, and then set off tomorrow during the day!

After all, what will be faced in front of us, everyone doesn't know, and moving forward at night is not complete after all.

This is because they have been walking the streets of this town for a long time, and they have not noticed anyone in the town.

When they were about to leave the station, they found a steamed bun shop, and there was only one big sister with a scarf in the bun shop, where the steamed buns were steamed.

Although this eldest sister is dressed relatively plainly, she is very good-looking and has a very good figure. Especially her smiling face, which makes people look very friendly.

The eldest sister immediately noticed Zhou Yu and waved to them when they arrived: "A few guests, do you want to come in and eat some steamed buns?

Chen Yu is still a relatively greedy kind, and everyone has been gone for so long, and he is indeed a little hungry, and his mouth is also very dry.

So Chen Yu and the uncle both proposed: "Why don't we stay here and eat something." ”

"Okay. ”

Zhou Yu didn't have any opinion on this kind of trivial matter, but he had been observing the surroundings and observing the proprietress, after all, he always felt that something was wrong with this town.

Such a strange town is deserted, why is there such a good-looking eldest sister selling steamed buns here? This is a very strange thing in itself, and this proprietress is so enthusiastic about them, it still makes Zhou Yu feel a little weird.

After sitting down, the proprietress served them tea and poured water, and then Zhou Yu asked seemingly casually: "Eldest sister, why don't you see anyone else in this town? You sell buns here alone, so if there is no one in normal times, how much can you sell? Can this make a living?"

"Alas, this can't be helped, I'm alone, I'm alone in this family, and there is no man who can help me, I don't sell buns, then I really can't live, around, there are no other towns, just this one, I just want to leave, and there is nowhere to go." ”

Although the eldest sister said these words sounded a little sad, she was smiling, not sad at all, and looked optimistic.

Chen Yu also subconsciously praised: "Eldest sister, you are so powerful, if I am here alone, I will definitely not be able to live." ”

"Hehe..."

The eldest sister smiled, and then went to get them buns.

"Come on, come on, fresh buns are baked, there are meat fillings, vegetable fillings, and bean fillings. ”

Looking at these hearty and fragrant buns, Zhou Yu became more and more curious: "Eldest sister, you are sparsely populated here, so where did you get these ingredients from?"

Hearing this, the eldest sister's face was obviously a little wrong. However, she still forcibly explained: "This is my secret, so I can't tell you, forgive me." ”

"It's okay, I'll just ask... Nothing else. ”

Chen Yu was already grumbling with hunger, so she didn't care what kind of stuffing the bun was, she grabbed it and stuffed it into her mouth, but she didn't expect that the first one this time was a meat-filled bun.

When you bite into it, it tastes delicious, with a little bit of soup. But she inexplicably felt that there seemed to be a fishy smell in it.

After taking one bite, she didn't want to take a second bite, and even felt like throwing up. He looked at Zhou Yu with some suspicion and asked in a low voice: "Brother Zhou, why do I feel that this bun doesn't taste right?

Zhou Yu ate vegetable filling, so he didn't feel anything wrong. But he knew that Chen Yu would definitely not lie to him. So I took the bun that Chen Yu had bitten and took a bite myself, and I really found that the smell was very strong.

The uncle also felt that there was a problem: "There is indeed a strong fishy smell..."

The proprietress on the side suddenly laughed loudly when she saw them like this: "Hahahaha... A few guests must not be frightened, I am holding no problem, it must be this meat, it has been put for a long time, so it will have a little taste, but this is very clean, you can rest assured, you see I taste one for you to see, this can really be eaten. ”

Speaking of which, she picked up a bun and took a bite, watching her eat with relish, as if there was really no problem.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Yu and the others were not good, and they said anything more, but no one touched the meat-filled bun again.

Chen Yu was a little shadowy in her heart, she didn't know which was the meat filling and which was the vegetable filling, so she asked Zhou Yu to give her a bite first. Don't want the stuffing, give her the stuffing.

Seeing the two of them behaving like this, the proprietress quipped: "Look at the two of you should be a couple, you are really affectionate, which is enviable..."

"Hehe..."

Zhou Yu smiled and nodded, while Chen Yu lowered his head and said nothing, his little face was a little blushing.

Seeing that it was already dark, they had not yet found a place to live, and they did not know if there were any other people living here in this town. At this moment, the proprietress suddenly proposed to let them stay with him, anyway, she has a lot of rooms here, and no one usually comes.

"You can rest assured to stay here, I am very clean here, and you dare to be here as a woman on weekdays. ”

Zhou Yu and the three of them looked at each other and felt that it was feasible, so they thanked her: "Then thank you boss." ”

After that, the eldest sister arranged a room for each of the three of them, which was very large and had all the furnishings inside. Looking at the furnishings inside, they don't fit the shabby style of this town at all.

When you arrive in such a strange place, even in the middle of the night, you can't sleep.

I don't know if it's an illusion, Zhou Yu always felt that he could hear all kinds of miserable wails echoing in the surrounding rooms.

It's kind of like that kind of horror movie, where the ghosts in the old house scream. But the voice wasn't very clear, and it certainly wasn't clear whether it was real or an illusion.

He decided to go out for a walk, to take a break, and to observe his surroundings as well, he had always been curious about the strangeness of the town.

When I went out, I found that the moon was very round tonight, and the starry sky was twinkling, so the surroundings were no longer dim, but full of blue-white light.

He had barely taken a few steps out of the room when he heard the sound of sharpening knives in the courtyard next door.

"It's strange, who's sharpening knives there this big night?"

He muttered a little depressedly, wanting to find out if there was anyone else in this town besides the eldest sister.

It's just that there is a particularly high wall between these two courtyards, and it is basically impossible to climb over the wall. After looking for a long time, I found that there was a dog hole in the corner, although the behavior of drilling the dog hole was indeed a bit inappropriate, but Zhou Yu still did it.

He couldn't resist the curiosity in his heart.

As soon as I sneaked through there, I came to the courtyard next door, and then I found that there were lanterns hanging in this courtyard, and the blood-red lanterns looked very terrifying in this dark night.

There was a table under the lantern, a stone table, and next to the stone table sat a woman dressed in red.

The woman had her back to him, unable to see her face clearly, let alone who the other party was.

Zhou Yu didn't make a sound, but slowly approached.

The person who sharpened the knife was this woman, she was sharpening the knife on the stone table, and there was a huge basket beside her, Zhou Yu was very curious, what was in this basket, who was this woman, what the hell was doing here.

It's just that when he really got close to see clearly, he was shocked...
