Chapter 127: Things in the Inn (1)
Mu Yunxi whispered: "Everyone seems to be asleep, but they don't feel any danger, what are they afraid of?"
Mo Rusong jumped on the roof, looked at it, and came back and said: "The whole city is not lit, it is pitch black, quiet, as if something is going to happen, and everyone is hiding." ”
"Let's go, let's go to the shopkeeper and ask for clarification. Mu Yunxi led them to the backyard, but there was still no movement here, "Which room do you say the shopkeeper lives in?"
"Just find a room. Leng Chao casually pushed open the door of a room and pulled a little two out.
Xiao Er was so frightened that Suo Suo trembled, "Big, adults spare me, I, I have a seventy-year-old mother at home, and a pair of young children, please spare my life, don't arrest me." ”
Mu Yunxi lit the candle and said, "You see clearly, we are just guests, we want to find your shopkeeper, you take us to the shopkeeper, we don't want to arrest you." ”
Xiao Er was so frightened that the candle blew out, lowered his voice, and there was a hint of panic in his tone, "Are you dying?" and dare to light the candle, don't make trouble, let's talk about it tomorrow, I'll stay in the room soon." ”
"Take us to the shopkeeper, or we'll set a fire here." Mu Yunxi shook the candle in front of Xiao Er, and insisted on seeing the shopkeeper.
Xiao Er had no choice, so he had to lead Mu Yunxi and them to find the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper was in the room on the other side, and Leng Chao pushed the door open with a little effort.
The shopkeeper looked at them in horror and stammered, "You, what do you want? Who are you? Don't arrest me." ”
Mu Yunxi closed the door and said lightly: "Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you if we come to ask a few words, we just want to know why it is necessary to close the door when it is dark, I heard that it was not like this before." ”
"Then I can tell you tomorrow, why do you have to go back and rest now, and talk about it after the evening. The shopkeeper recognized them, was a little upset, and wanted to kick them out.
Leng Chao smiled suspiciously, "If you don't say it, I'll light the lights here, and when that terrible thing comes, you'll push you to that thing, okay?"
"No, don't, I'll just say that. "The shopkeeper is afraid of them, these people are so ruthless that they want to push him to death.
The shopkeeper went to close the door, the bolt had been broken by the cold tide, he pushed a cabinet over to the top, it was not enough, and a few more chairs were added, so he was relieved.
He whispered: "Actually, it's not appropriate to tell you now, the slightest sound may attract terrible things, and I will have to change places later." ”
Mu Yunxi asked suspiciously, "What are the terrible things you are talking about, why can't there be a little sound?"
The shopkeeper explained: "Actually, this is the case, it used to be very lively here at night, and our store would open late, and there were people watching outside, so as to facilitate some late customers."
It's just two months ago, maybe even earlier, people in the city were going missing, at first beggars and homeless people, and we didn't react at the time, and we thought it was fine, and then people in the city started to disappear.
At first, it was a drunk who came back at night, then it was a person who still had a light on at home, and then it was a person who would disappear if he talked loudly at home, so now before it gets dark, everyone goes home, and they dare not speak, and they dare not light the lamp, for fear of provoking those things to come, in fact, we don't know whether this is useful now. ”
