"One day, he went to the mountains with a few friends to play, I don't know what he did to provoke a snake demon, all his friends were killed, only he was left dying outside the cave, at that time his face seemed to be sprayed on the face by the snake demon's poison, we immediately rescued him back to the town, but everyone was helpless, there was no way to save him, just when everyone thought he was not saved, his father gave him the demon pill in his body, which saved him, but yo! ”

These are the same as what Fan Chen heard, she looked at the old grandmother with her eyes and listened carefully.

"From now on, this Zhang Yuankui seems to have changed as a different person. I don't know how, like us little demons, after a thousand years, it is very rare, he was hundreds of years older than me, now I am full of gray hair, he still looks like a mortal forty years old, I don't know how, maybe it's because of his father's demon pill!"

Fan Chen lowered his eyebrows, thinking of Uncle Zhang's appearance, although he didn't look as young as the old grandmother said, but it was indeed very different from the white-haired old grandmother in front of him.

Either because of his father's demon pill, or because of the monster he raised in the inn.

Fan Chen nodded affirmatively, and then asked, "Who does Uncle Zhang have dealings with on weekdays, and what is in the inn?"

"Uncle Zhang, ouch, little girl, you still call him Uncle Zhang, it seems that you have a good relationship with him?" the old woman exclaimed, her face changed, and she lowered her voice suddenly.

Little girl?

Fan Chen shook his head helplessly, none of the women in these six sessions are as old as herself!

The old woman continued: "He has no friends, he is a strange man, and all the people with whom he has had a holiday are dead." ”

All the people who had a holiday with him died?

Fan Chen frowned. "He's a very good man!"

"He is a good person, since his father died, he has changed as a person, ignoring people, the most important thing is that his face is not cured, everyone is afraid when they see it, who dares to be friends with him. The old woman pursed her lips as she spoke, feeling that he was still very pitiful.

"What about the inn, do you know anything about the inn?" asked Fan Chen.

The old woman trembled slightly, her mouth was half open, she made a hoarse sound, and swallowed her saliva. "It's not surprising that this inn started out, but it was opened a few years after his father's death, and business wasn't very bad at the time. ”

At this, a trace of fear flashed in her eyes, and her eyes widened round and wide.

"I remember one night, hundreds of years ago, it was raining so hard and so hard that I was awakened in my dream by a terrible scream, which made it impossible for people to sleep, and I was so scared that I didn't dare to go out to see, so I hid in the corner of my bed until dawn. ”

Fan Chen asked eagerly, "What happened?"

The old grandmother's lips trembled slightly, and cold sweat broke out in her head. "When I opened the door and went out, I found that the other people in the town were like me, they were all frightened by the screams last night, and everyone didn't know what was going on. ”

"Disappeared overnight?" Yingmo asked in a low voice.

"Yes. The old woman nodded.

"Does no one care?" asked Fanchen.

The patriarch of the largest family in the town sent someone to investigate the matter, and who knows, this man entered the inn and never came out again. The grandmother didn't know where to put her hands, she didn't know when to start, and her palms were in a cold sweat. The voice was low, low, somewhat gloomy.

Since then, no one in the town dared to enter the inn again, and Zhang Yuankui had never left the inn. And from that night onwards, every night, screams came from the inn, but none of us knew what was going on inside. ”

Fan Chen and Yingmo glanced at each other silently, and Fan Chen's brows furrowed slightly. "Did you never open the inn since it closed? Uncle Zhang, do you know where he went?"

The old granny smacked her mouth. "We haven't seen him for a long time, and we don't know where he went. However, the scream has not been heard since the door was closed! Although there was no strange noise, no one dared to enter, for fear that they would not be able to get out. ”

She pursed her lips and smiled kindly. "That's all I know. ”

She stretched her neck and looked towards the mouth of the alley, her eyes widened, and she saw someone as if she wanted to buy something, so she said to Fanchen and Yingmo: "I won't talk to you more, I have a business here." ”

After saying that, he ran out quickly, not like an old man at all.

"Uncle Zhang in your mouth seems to have really left. Yingmo said.

Fan Chen immediately shook his head, the most important thing for him to come back this time is to repay his kindness and change his appearance for him.

"Left? impossible. That night, he rescued me, and he said that he wanted to go back to the inn, and he would definitely not leave. Fan Chen looked at Yingmo with certainty.

"That's not gone, there's only one possibility, it's what's going on inside!" Yingmo frowned, the two stared at each other, and thought of going together, that is, they would enter the inn together to find out.

In the endless darkness, there is no light, no warmth, only fear and confusion moaning in the ears of mortals.

A fishy smell came to his face, Yingmo raised his hand and waved, and the entire inn became bright.

The tables and chairs in the inn fell to the ground in a scattered manner, the tables, the walls, the ground, and the counters were covered with dust and spider silk, and the whole inn was dead and lifeless.

Fan Chen covered his mouth and looked around with his eyes, the furnishings here, the tables and chairs fell to the ground exactly the same as that night.

"All the furnishings, all the things here are the same as they were when I fled that night, they haven't changed. ”

Yingmo frowned. "Nothing has changed?"

Fan Chen turned around and nodded affirmatively at him.

"That proves that the boss hasn't opened the shop since that night, maybe he hasn't come back, or he's back... Dead?" Yingmo speculated.

He's dead?

Fan Chen's eyes widened, and he hurriedly began to search every room in the inn.

In the end, after searching the entire inn, Zhang Yuankui was not found, nor did he find any other monsters in the inn. However, both Fanchen and Yingmo smelled the smell of the snake demon, although it had been a few months, but the smell of Kui Ji was so great that the two of them could smell it.

"This inn is indeed Kui Ji's demonic spirit. Yingmo said to Fanchen with certainty, this smell of Kui Ji was smelled by Yingmo thousands of years ago, and she smelled it as soon as she smelled it.

Fan Chen nodded. "This Kui Ji is so cunning, I don't know where she is hiding now. ”
