Chapter 044: Hot Spring Town
Heading north from Dongzhen, passing through the fields where the mountains are blooming, you will arrive at Luohai, an ancient civilization with a history of 1,000 years.
There is no sea in Luohai, on the contrary, it is surrounded by mountains and mountains, with Huishan Mountain in the east, Qishan Mountain in the west, Junyeling in the south, and Hufeng in the north.
This city in the mountains has preserved intact ancient Qing Dynasty buildings, with scattered streets, white-walled tile houses, blue brick paving, pavilions and pavilions, and ingenious workmanship.
The most famous of Nahae is the hot springs.
In the long lantern street, there are more than 10 large and small hot spring inns, each with its own characteristics, attracting countless tourists.
And one of the innermost "hot spring towns" has the smallest pattern, there is a dim chandelier at the door of the hotel, looking in, the simple carved tables and chairs are quietly placed next to the screen, the proprietress is wearing a blue cheongsam, phoenix eyes are lightly picked, indescribably charming.
The four children came to the door, and the proprietress smiled and said, "What about your parents?
"No, just the four of us. Lu Dahai walked to the counter and started the check-in process.
Bai Pingping followed behind him with a smile, her mind full of pictures of hot springs, and a suspicious flush rose on her little face.
The proprietress covered her mouth and giggled, her voice was very good, like a yellow bird in spring.
"Today's children are really not simple, I think when I was thirteen or fourteen years old, how dare I be so far away from home? For the sake of your courage, I will give you half the price of this four-person room. ā
After Zhang Xiaoran heard it, he nodded obediently: "Thank you, sister." ā
When she said this, the proprietress smiled even more happily. Although she looked to be only twenty-five years old, her actual age was close to forty, and no one could tell her real age because of her good maintenance.
Lu Dahai took the initiative to help with Zhang Xiaoran's luggage, and the latter blushed and followed him with his head down.
Bai Pingping seemed to have discovered something.
She looked at Zhang Xiaoran's demeanor and frowned slightly.
The room was not big or small, with four single beds, and Lu Dahai chose the one closest to the door. After he put his luggage away, he planned to go take a shower.
The proprietress followed behind a few people, she looked at the simple decoration of the guest room, and said with a smile: "Girls, how is it, are you satisfied?"
"Very good!" Zhang Xiaoran nodded hurriedly.
Bai Pingping had a gloomy face, there was no squeak, the proprietress found something, and she just smiled and left. After she left, Bai Pingping turned around and said dissatisfiedly: "Hey, Zhang Xiaoran, do you like Lu Dahai?"
"......" chapter Xiao Ran Leng in place.
Lu Dahai was holding a white towel and just wanted to enter the house, but he also stopped after hearing this question.
It was quiet in the house.
Even, sweltering.
Zhang Xiaoran smiled awkwardly, she scratched her head and said, "Bai Pingping, why do you ask that...... IāI don't like him. ā
Bai Pingping snorted and said arrogantly: "I hope you are telling the truth! If you don't like him, we can still be friends...... If you like him, I'm sorry, but I never play with rivals!"
Zhang Xiaoran lowered her head, she didn't dare to look at Bai Pingping's eyes, afraid that she could see that she was lying.
Bai Pingping likes Lu Dahai, and everyone in the school knows it.
However, she is an excellent Bai Pingping, of course she is qualified to like Lu Dahai, unlike herself......
Liang Qiuqiu didn't know when she came to the door, she shook her head, Zhang Xiaoran's reaction was in her expectation. She looked at the young man in front of her and patted him on the back with her hand: "Hurry up, don't let them see you." ā
Lu Dahai pursed his lips: "Why are you angry with me? It's not my fault that I'm so likeable." ā
"Phew!" Liang Qiuqiu nudged him, motioning for him to hurry up.
Lu Dahai put a white towel on his shoulder and left.
Liang Qiuqiu breathed a sigh of relief, with Zhang Xiaoran's introverted personality, if she knew that those words just now were heard by Lu Dahai, she would definitely faint on the spot, right?
It's really not worrying at all.
Lu Dahai walked towards the bathhouse.
Although the hot springs here are very famous, he has hated bathing in hot springs since he was a child, especially in such a hot weather, and he wants to pour a large bucket of cold water from his head, which will definitely be too cool.
It's just that this small hot spring hotel always feels a little weird.
But I can't say anything weird.
The proprietress was still standing at the counter.
The warm red chandelier shone on her face, and her plain cheongsam carried a sense of a long time. The long hair is held behind the head by a jade hosta, and there is a wisp of slightly curly bangs on the forehead, which looks even more amorous.
There was an abacus in front of her, she was keeping her head down and doing the accounts, the lights swayed slightly, and for a moment, she seemed like a person who did not belong to this era.
In the old hot spring hotel, it was very quiet, except for Liang Qiuqiu and his party, who had just arrived, almost no one came.
The wind chimes hanging in front of the hotel swayed gently, and suddenly, as if losing its center of gravity, it fell to the ground and shattered.
ā¦ā¦
ā¦ā¦
On the quaint street, there are embroidery girls holding a bunch of hydrangeas walking down the street, shouting from afar, and children playing and laughing...... This qiÄ is so warm in the sunset, like a well-carved painting, people can't take their eyes off.
It is a small town in the south of the Yangtze River in the prosperous era, the river is long, the willows are still around, and there is a water pavilion stage on the lake, and the actors with heavy makeup are babbling and singing Jiangnan tunes.
On the flower boat, there is a white-clothed boy standing with a fan, his clothes are fluttering, and there is a smile in his eyes like the warm sun of March.
The drama on the stage is flattering and lightly picked, and under the dark and different faces, only the tenderness in the eyes is not reduced by half.
ā¦ā¦
ā¦ā¦
"Ahh
There is the sound of a child crying out in pain.
Immediately after, there was the sound of hurried walking.
The woman picked up the little girl from the ground and reprimanded her in distress: "Didn't you say, don't walk around by yourself! Always disobedient, and run here alone......" The woman said, looking up at the ruins in front of her.
This is the place that was just picked up last week, and it was bought by a rich man to open a casino, and then the haunting spread that the rich man lost all his family property overnight, brutally killed his wife and son, and then committed suicide.
After the death of the rich man, the casino was stripped down and the building was planned to be rebuilt.
Just standing at the entrance, the woman felt the gloomy wind, and remembered the haunted legend, and couldn't help but shiver.
She walked away with the baby in her arms, and said as she went, "Don't come to this kind of place again! Otherwise, your mother will spank you......"
"I see, Mommy......"
In the distance, someone was laughing.
Is it a hallucination?
The woman turned around, and there was a ruin behind her, and no matter how prosperous the casino was, it was covered by mud and blocked by signs.
Above the dirt, a string of wind chimes lay silently there.
When the wind blows, it disappears.
The woman froze in place, and after a few seconds, she screamed. xh118
