Chapter 640: The Second Aunt Who Has Been Dead For Many Years
I stayed in the room for a while, and it occurred to me that I should look more carefully, maybe there would be other people trapped here in this space?
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a rush of footsteps outside, and I immediately ran out of the room to check, only to find that a man and a woman who had just left had returned in a mess.
Seeing that the woman was limping and limping, it seemed that she had been injured on the way down the mountain, so I hurried over to help them and said, "What the hell is going on? Didn't you find your way down the mountain?"
The man said with a dejected face, "Don't mention it, it's so dark that we can't see anything clearly, and my girlfriend accidentally broke her foot." ”
I settled them on the couch at the front desk, then turned around and rummaged through the drawer at the front desk to see what kind of bone-setting medicine there was, but all I could find was a bottle of safflower oil.
As a result, when I looked at the production date, it was still an expired bottle of safflower oil. But I can't take care of it so much now, so let's make do with it! Something is better than nothing.
In our subsequent conversations, I learned that the young couple's male name was Liu Hao, and the female was Huo Miaomiao. Liu Hao is the financial director of a company, while Huo Miaomiao works in a bank.
Regardless of their work and appearance, these two people can be said to be talented and beautiful, and they are very compatible. But I don't know why, but I always feel a trace of sadness on the faces of the two.
At that time, I thought that they were in a hurry because they couldn't get down the mountain, so I persuaded them, "Don't worry, the more anxious you are, the easier it is to make mistakes, believe me, my friend will really come to rescue us." ”
"Get out, what do you mean we're trapped in this homestay?" the woman said suspiciously.
I nodded and said, "That's a great possibility at the moment......
"How is this possible?!When we went up the mountain yesterday, it was clear that the surroundings were not what they are now...... "Liu Hao still didn't want to believe everything in front of him.
I didn't know how to explain it to him, but just as the three of us were staring at each other, I suddenly heard a steady footstep outside the B&B.
The three of us looked at each other at once, and then looked nervously at the door, when a thin old man walked in through the doorway. He didn't seem surprised to see the three of us, but said happily, "Yo!
At the time, I didn't understand the meaning of his words, but I saw that his expression was much calmer than ours, and I should have known the situation here. So I hurriedly said politely, "Uncle, may I ask what kind of place is this?"
The old man looked at me and said, "Come again!
Hearing him say this, I felt like I was asking a particularly idiotic question. At this time, Liu Hao continued to ask on the side, "Uncle, do you know how to go down the mountain?"
The old man shook his head and said, "It's easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, since you have already gone up the mountain, there is no chance to go down the mountain again." ”
Liu Hao's face turned pale when he heard this, and he said with some disbelief, "How can we not go down? Could it be that we can stay in the mountains for the rest of our lives?"
The old man looked at him and said no more......
It is strange to say that since the appearance of this old man, in addition to us, there have gradually been many more guests in the homestay, they have come out of various different rooms, but when they moved in, I have no impression at all.
"Miao Miao, why are you here?" a woman's voice sounded from behind us. The three of us looked back and saw that it was a woman in her thirties.
When Huo Miaomiao saw the woman, her body immediately stiffened, and she was stunned for a long time before she stumbled and said, "Second aunt, are you...... I...... We're here to play. ”
This woman, who was called the second aunt by Huo Miaomiao, had obviously a strange look in her eyes, and seemed to be a little unhappy and said, "Why are you so ignorant? What are you doing here? Hurry up!"
At this time, Huo Miaomiao was so anxious that she was about to cry, "Second aunt, we are trapped here and can't get out!"
When Huo Miaomiao's second aunt heard this, she immediately said to the old man just now with a gloomy face, "Let them go down!"
The old man still had the same happy expression and said, "I'm sorry! It's not up to me whether I can go down the mountain or not, and besides, all the people who appear here are here of their own free will!
"You ......" Huo Miaomiao's second aunt blushed and couldn't speak.
The atmosphere at the scene was a little awkward for a while, and then I took a closer look at the guests in the B&B and found that they all looked strange, and the clothes on their bodies were all of any age, and some were wearing clothes that people like to wear in the fifties and sixties.
Looking at these people, I had a burst of doubts in my heart, if the current space is 7 years ago, then even if these people's clothes were placed 7 years ago, the style is a little too old, right?
Even Huo Miaomiao's second aunt is dressed in the same way that people dressed when they first reformed and opened up in the 90s.
It stands to reason that Huo Miaomiao should be happy to meet her relatives here, right, but I saw that there was no joy on her face. I glanced at Liu Hao, but apparently he didn't know anything.
At this time, I made an excuse and asked Huo Miaomiao and Liu Hao to go back to the room with me, and Huo Miaomiao left with me as if he had been amnestied. As soon as she entered my room, Huo Miaomiao began to shake all over.
I looked like she was terrified, so I asked her, "What's wrong with you?
Liu Hao next to him also said, "Yes, why didn't I know you had a second aunt? Why didn't you tell me before?"
Huo Miaomiao, who had been trembling, suddenly said in a trembling voice, "I...... There's a reason why I don't tell you......"
"What is the reason?" Liu Hao asked.
I saw that Huo Miaomiao's somewhat blue lips moved a few times and didn't speak, and it seemed that she was really scared, so I comforted her and said, "You are afraid, if you have something to say, let's figure it out together." ”
Huo Miaomiao nodded when she heard this, and then slowed down for a while before she said to Liu Hao faintly, "The reason why I didn't tell you that I still have a second aunt is because she died many years ago!"
I was also shocked when I heard this, and hurriedly asked her, "Dead? How did you die?"
Huo Miaomiao swallowed her spit and continued, "My second aunt's name is Li Mei, she is a primary school teacher, and my second aunt's husband was also working in a state-owned enterprise at the time. At that time, their family was a dual-income worker, and their small life was not bad, but later my uncle's unit was not profitable, so I had to let some people be laid off and re-employed, and my uncle-in-law happened to be in the list of laid-off personnel......"
