Chapter 37: The Terrible House
"Are you sure you live here?" Duan He gently shook the door of the tavern, and a pile of dust mixed with grass fell. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Just rest here for one night, the man is outside, why bother with this and that!"
Mu Yichen was very bold, and dragged Duan He to find a chair that didn't look too broken and sat down.
"Little two, little two."
Mu Yichen made a few peaces, but no one came. The tavern's account collector lay on the seemingly clean table, ignoring the two of them.
"What the hell is this!" Mu Yichen secretly lucked, and his internal strength gathered in his chest, wanting to use the lion's roar to shock the ears of the shopkeeper in this store.
"Wait!"
At the moment when Mu Yichen was about to exert his strength, Duan He stopped him and pointed to the ceiling on his head.
Mu Yichen looked at a very dilapidated roof, but he didn't find anything.
"Why, is there anyone here but I didn't find it?" Mu Yichen asked in a low voice.
"It's not." Duan He pointed to the ceiling again and said, "I'm afraid that you will just shout and shatter this house again." ”
Mu Yichen smiled awkwardly, stood up and walked towards the shopkeeper lying on the counter.
"Shopkeeper, a guest has arrived."
The shopkeeper remained motionless and continued to sleep on the counter.
Mu Yichen's face became more and more ugly, he proposed to live here, but he didn't expect it to be such a shop, he was a little annoyed at the time, and he stepped forward and dragged the shopkeeper.
He grabbed the shopkeeper's arm and shook it lightly, but the shopkeeper didn't move, but he heard a crisp sound of bones.
The treasurer's arm fell off.
"Huh?"
Duan He on the side suddenly noticed that something was wrong, Mu Yichen didn't use half of his strength just now, and even if Mu Yichen tore it off, the shopkeeper should have yelled at this time.
"Not good!"
Mu Yichen was startled, knowing that there was fraud, he hurriedly retreated backwards, Duan He took his and Mu Yichen's swords and swayed, performed light work, and walked to Mu Yichen's side in an instant.
But nothing happened, except for Mu Yichen's arm that he dragged off, the entire tavern was exactly the same as just now. The wind and snow outside were gone, and the silence was terrible for a moment.
"It's really weird here."
Mu Yichen first took the sword from Duan He's hand, a swordsman has a sword in the palm of his hand to not panic, in this world, his own sword can be put on the table at will, I am afraid that only Mu Yichen.
With the sword in hand, Mu Yichen took a closer look at the arm he was holding in his hand. The whole arm seems to have been blown by the wind for a long time, and the place in the hand can no longer feel the flesh. The whole arm was clenched in his hand as if he were holding a long stone, not very heavy and extremely cold.
Duan He walked in front of the shopkeeper and secretly used his internal force to protect the shopkeeper before gently turning him over.
As expected, it turned over with a hideous and terrifying face. The flesh on the face is half festering and half shrunken, and it is extremely hideous.
"This man has been dead for a long time." Duan He said.
Mu Yichen stared at the dead man, then at the dilapidated tavern, and said with emotion: "I don't know where we have gone, and there are still such things." This man has been dead for a long time, and if we don't come, I'm afraid there will be no more light here. ”
"It was his destiny to have no daylight, and it was also destiny for us to be here. I don't know who this is, and what's the use of finding a dead person here without a clue? ”
Duan He's words made Mu Yichen speechless, and the two of them sat down separately, staring at the lights in the room in a daze.
Candles were placed around the tavern, eight in all. The outside of the candles is covered with a layer of 'dead wind' - legend has it that with this thing, the candle will never be blown out by the wind again.
"Huh?"
Looking at the lights, Duan He's expression was stunned, and he said, "No, if this person has been dead for a long time, who lit the candle in this room?" ”
Mu Yichen was also taken aback, and couldn't help but secretly clench his sword in his hand. There are a lot of strange things in the world, maybe these two will meet one at this time.
Duan He slowly stood up, looked around with his eyes, and slowly sat down again.
"There are thousands of strange things in this world, and I can't imagine that I will encounter them later." Duan He said softly.
"What shall we do now, shall we rest here for the night or go somewhere else?" Mu Yichen asked.
Duan He stepped forward again, looked at the hideous and terrifying face of the shopkeeper, and looked at it carefully for a long time.
"What are you looking at?"
"I seem to know this person."
Duan He looked at it carefully, flipped through the memories in his mind, and suddenly remembered: "Isn't this person Zhang Dart?" ”
"Zhang Dart?"
"The one who shivered in the back of the carriage when we met."
"I didn't even see him at the time, are you sure it's him?"
"Nature."
Duan He's brows were tightly locked, it was a good thing to meet someone in another country. But it is not a good thing to meet a dead old acquaintance in another country.
"Zhang Dart is here, he must be a dart. The dart died in such a place, and his ability to escape for his life was not considered home. Duan He said.
Mu Yichen didn't think so much, tugged at Duan He's shirt, and said, "Let's not care how this person died, it's useless for the two of us to think about it here, it's better to think about whether to rest here tonight." ”
"Definitely."
Duan He took out a cloth bag from the dead Zhang Dart, and Mu Yichen recognized it at a glance, the cloth bag was exactly the same as the one he wanted to protect.
"This..." Mu Yichen said silently.
"Such strange things will happen to us, and such coincidences will happen to us." Duan He stood up and continued, "If my guess is correct, this dart is also holding a piece of jade. I don't know if the jade is true or not, in short, this tavern is made to rob this dart. There is still a light here tonight, and I'm afraid that the gang of people who are going to rob the darts will hear the wind and know that there is another piece, so they will invite me to wait here. ”
"How did they know we were going to be here?"
"How do I know that?"
Duan He replied with an exaggerated expression, clutching his sword tightly in his hand. If it was as he guessed, the two of them should have been trapped in a net by now.
It's a pity that although this net is strong, it has wrapped the wrong person.
Mu Yichen lowered his head and glanced at Zhang Dart, sighed softly, and said, "In this way, let's go." ”
"No need, these people must think that they have succeeded, otherwise we have been here for so long, why hasn't anyone come until now?" Duan He said.
After saying this, the wind suddenly rose. The snow that had remained unmelted on the ground was blown up by the wind and splashed everywhere, and the whole dilapidated house was shaking, and stones mixed with weeds fell in large chunks.
Mu Yichen let out a soft cry, and he was able to dodge a falling stone.
