Chapter Thirty-Nine: Into the Tiger's Den
"This room is just an empty room. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Feng Jiuyin patted the dust on his hands and took out a porcelain bottle from his arms.
"Brother Mo, that's what I'm going to do with this thing......." He opened the vase and put it upside down on the ground.
A small black and shiny insect slowly crawled out of the bottle, it circled around Feng Jiuyin's feet and slowly crawled to a corner of the room.
"Miao Jiang's Gu worm, won't you use him and yourself as a guide and let this Gu worm find him for you?"
Mo Chen said lightly, with a hint of curiosity in his tone.
"Yes, it wasn't easy for him to get my medicine box by himself that day, and that old fox was always guarding against me........ Speaking of which, it took me a little effort to get this Gu worm out of that crazy woman..........."
Feng Jiuyin said and walked in the direction where the Gu worm crawled.
I saw that the Gu worm crawled from the corner of the wall to the door, and then crawled deeper into the corridor.
"Can you really find him, you worm?"
Qu Ziyan walked at the end quite dissatisfied, and he felt uncomfortable from the moment Feng Jiuyin took out the worm.
"This Miao Jiang's Gu insect is very godly. If you let go of the introduction, even if you escape to the ends of the earth, it will be able to find the introduction and eat away at the flesh and blood of the introduction. I looked at the size of the Gu worm and saw that it was raised by the rumored goddess of Miao Jiang....... Hehe, Brother Feng is really powerful, he can get this thing from that woman's hand. ”
Mo Chen had a smile on his lips, but his oblique phoenix eyes were full of sarcasm.
"I used Miao Jiang's special Gu medicine, this worm won't do anything to me for the time being, but if the time passes, this Gu worm can't find a host, it will have to come to me......." Feng Jiuyin said lightly, as if this life and death thing did not happen to him, "I can't kill this Gu worm yet, I just borrowed it, so the two brothers are faster, if I die, you won't be able to bargain.......
Mochen smiled even more happily, but his pace was finally faster.
Qu Ziyan always fell last, and the chains in his hands were also tightly tightened because of Mo Chen's acceleration. His fiery red undershirt swayed gently with his footsteps at this time, and he frowned, always feeling that the little thing left her alone in that room, which made people very uneasy.
This uneasiness is right.
Xia Qing was indeed woken up by the discussion between Qu Ziyan and Mochen.
She had been wondering why the two had been delaying their departure, and sure enough, tonight, they had made a move.
From their conversation, it is clear that they stayed here to kill the innkeeper and get something from the boss. After following the two of them for these days, she gradually looked down on life and death.
From the time she came down the mountain to the present, she has seen too much life and death, and seen too much of the world, originally she was just a little girl living in the mountains, but now, she should grow up, she is not less at all.
Maybe she still had a trace of kindness and luck in this world in her heart. But starting from the poison-coated grape that Mochen took out from his hand that day, that little bit of kindness also disappeared along with the grapes.
Xia Qing got up and walked to the door, the door was hidden.
Apparently, the two of them had already gone to the boss. They may even have found Feng Jiuyin together.
It was dark and cold outside.
There was no moonlight, and the whole inn was pitch black.
Xia Qing took out a short candle from the room. With the candlelight, she was finally able to walk more steadily.
Dusty handrails, huge cobwebs on the walls, and creaky ground when you walk. The inn at night added a little horror, and the rooms along the corridor were locked and tightly closed.
Xia Qing slowly groped forward by the candlelight.
One step, one step, one step.
She caressed her chest carefully, always worried that something would crawl out of her surroundings. The strange thing is that after walking for so long, she has not been able to find any trace of Qu Ziyan and Mochen, she has to walk all over the entire second floor, except for the spider on the wall and the two dog barks that come by chance outside the inn, there is no other sound.
Xia Qing walked to the wooden ladder again, if there was no one on the second floor, then it could only be on the top floor.
Xiao Er's advice came to her mind, and the big pockmarked face with a terrifying expression stammered to describe the horror of the top floor to her. At night, there are man-eating youkai and blood-sucking bats. In Xiao Er's mouth, the top floor is a man-eating demon cave.
Xia Qing pursed her lips and smiled, it is estimated that those were made up by the boss to deceive Xiao Er, the purpose is to prevent Xiao Er from going to the top floor to disturb him.
She walked up, and the old wooden ladder looked old. In some places, there are even cracks, and a big hole can be stepped on as soon as you step on it. There were drops of brown liquid on the handrail by the wooden ladder, which looked like dried blood.
Xia Qing avoided those cracks and cautiously climbed to the top floor.
The layout of the top floor is almost identical to that of the second floor, except that the rooms appear to be smaller.
She couldn't help but clench the candle in her hand.
"Shhh Because of Xia Qing's exertion, the candle oil dripped just onto the back of her hand.
The white and tender hands turned red in an instant.
She couldn't care about it anymore, so she took the candle in one hand and walked deeper into the corridor.
It was silent, and only the sound of her own footsteps could be heard.
Xia Qing was nervous, but she was a little relieved because of the candlelight in her hand.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the wall in a corner room.
She pressed her heart that was about to jump out and hurriedly blew out the candle in her hand.
Without the light of the candles, everything in front of her became blurred, and she bent over her waist and followed the sound of knocking on the wall, stumbling all the way to the outside of the room.
Approaching the door, Xia Qing smelled a foul smell, there was not only a knock on the wall in the room, but also an old voice talking to himself.
"Bunnies, how dare you think about my baby and my old life..... Seeing that you are all extraordinary, I only wanted your money, but now I can only ask for money and life together with you...... My baby....... Good thing you're still ......."
Xia Qing, who was standing at the door, was very sure that this was the voice of the flower boss at this time. That day, she heard Boss Hua scolding Feng Jiuyin's voice, which was the same as now.
Old and gloomy.
She covered her nose so hard that the stench was so thick that she almost fainted from the stench as she stood in the doorway.
"Today I want you to taste the bitterness.......
Boss Hua's voice suddenly became sharper, and the sound of knocking on the wall became louder and louder.
"Smack. ”
Xia Qing was so focused on listening to Boss Hua's voice that the candle in his hand fell to the ground.
Almost at the same time, there was a low roar from the room from the boss.
"Who's there!"
