Chapter 40: A Conversation with the Boss

"Well, what Wei said makes sense, I'll see if I can communicate with the boss and find out what information is available. Zhang Han interrupted everyone's play.

The innkeeper was still happily wiping down the table cabinet that had become incredibly smooth, as if he regarded it as the closest thing to him.

"Yo guest, why did you come down, are you going out?" looked at Zhang Han and Wei who came down, and the boss asked enthusiastically. Didn't care at all about the grimace mask that Li Kong was wearing.

"Boss, my brothers and I are also here to travel during the holidays, so I want to know about your customs here, can you talk to us?" Zhang Han also catered enthusiastically.

"We're here, it's nothing special, but you're right to travel here, the sun here is very suitable, it's not too cold or too hot all year round. Hearing Zhang Han's inquiry, the boss couldn't wait to introduce.

"Because it's a remote place, there are no outsiders, so when you see outsiders, you are very welcoming, and I hope the guests don't be surprised. ”

"Haha, how can we meet each other, I like it very much as soon as I come here, both the environment and the townspeople are so good that I have nothing to say, our brothers plan to stay here for a few more days, and we will have to disturb the boss more in the future." Obviously, Zhang Han's communication skills are very strong, and he chatted with the boss after a while, just like two long-lost old friends, from parents to ideals, they simply have nothing to say.

"Boss, I really like you here, can you introduce me?" Zhang Han spread his hands, his expression full of love.

Hearing that some people like this place, the boss was also very happy to introduce him to Zhang Han: "Don't think that my inn is small, but we have been in business for more than a hundred years, from my great-grandfather to me, but our town is famous."

So you guys are definitely the best choice to stay here. ”

Listening to the boss talk eloquently about his hotel, Zhang Han and Li Kong did not interrupt, and listened carefully.

The boss may have really not been in contact with outsiders for a long time, and suddenly two outsiders are willing to listen to him.

"In addition to my inn, there are several century-old shops in the town like us, come on, come on, come here, come here, I'll show you. ”

The boss pulled Zhang Han and walked towards the door, pointed to a somewhat dilapidated house and said: "This is the best restaurant in our town, and their food is the best in our town, don't look at it as dilapidated, there is a reason." ”

"Oh?" Zhang Han pretended to be puzzled, looking curious.

"Originally, it wasn't like this, it was run by an old man surnamed Zhang, who had no children and no daughters, and he had always been the one who took care of the hotel. But people have stumbled, horses have stumbled, and somehow the old man's restaurant suddenly caught fire, and the originally good restaurant was burned to the way it is now.

But this also happened a strange thing, when the hotel was on fire, everyone did not notice, and when we reacted to the fire, Lao Zhangtou had no breath, but on the night of the burial, Lao Zhangtou somehow came back to life.

At the same time, he kept shouting that he had seen the gods, and it was the gods who let him continue to be in the world. Everyone didn't understand why Lao Zhangtou could still come back to life, thinking that it was just a return to the light, but Lao Zhangtou has lived for almost five years now.

Later, the most respected old man in our town told us that this was the manifestation of the cold pavilion to revive the dead old man Zhang. ”

Li Kong's brows under the mask furrowed tightly, the dead people have come back to life, why is this. Generally, the corpse will only occur when the corpse encounters a cat or weasel, which can cause a person to return to the light for a short time. But it won't give the people who died five more years to live.

"The old man I just mentioned is the only magician in our town, he is very powerful, whether we are slightly injured or seriously injured, he can help us heal, and the people in the town respect him very much. The boss's adoring eyes did not hide it, which also showed his respect for the old man in question.

"Boss, is the old man you mentioned in your town?" asked Li Kong.

"Here, he guards our holy place here~ Leng Ge. The boss answered Li Kong's question without the slightest hesitation.

Leng Pavilion Guardian, an old man with a kind smile on his face but full of gloomy aura appeared in Li Kong's mind, and suddenly Li Kong seemed to have figured out something and hurriedly asked:

"Have you ever been seriously injured?"

The boss was suddenly stunned by Li Kong's question.

Li Kong also knew that his question was abrupt, scratched his head and laughed dryly.

Seeing the embarrassment of the scene, Zhang Han immediately relieved the siege and said: "Don't care, brother, my brother has a serious injury on his face, so when he heard that the old man had such an ability, he was naturally extremely happy, and he was abrupt, and I hope that my brother will bear with me and not go to my heart." ”

"Well, what is this, I just don't know how to say it for a while, don't worry, I won't care. The boss didn't care, but comforted the two.

"We have our backs to Mount Tuca, and I also like to go to the mountains when I am bored, I have lived here for forty years, and I have never heard of a dark beast on Mount Tuca, but I touched it, and then you can imagine the result, I was injured by it, if the old man hadn't come in time, I might have died.

The old man brought me back and treated me, and you see I don't even have a scar now. The boss reached out and pointed to his arm to show the two of them.

"I can't see it now, this arm of mine was almost scratched by the dark beast at that time, and that huge scar runs through here. The boss gestured with his hands.

The two kept looking, but no matter how they looked, they couldn't see any signs of injury.

"Big brother, this old man is really powerful, then there is hope for the scar on my face. Li Kong pretended to be excited.

"Haha, it seems that we haven't come here in vain this time, and there is always hope for your injuries. Zhang Han naturally knew what Li Kong meant, and immediately agreed.

The realistic acting skills of the two are impeccable.

Seeing the excitement of the two, the boss immediately introduced: "If you have time, I will take you to the old man and ask him to help you treat the wound on your face." You shouldn't be too old to look at your appearance, and it's hard to show your true face with such a wound on your face, and it's also very hard. ”

"Really, then I thank you. Li Kong's purpose was to get close to the old man again, so he naturally agreed happily.

"Then I'll go up and get ready, and we'll meet this god-like old man in a moment. Zhang Han and Li Kong responded, his tone even more excited.

"Okay, you go and prepare, and when you are well, I will take you to meet him, and promise to heal your face injury." ”

The two quickly returned to the room.

"Wei, do you feel anything wrong?" Zhang Han's face was solemn.

"Well, Captain, do you remember that people here have different personalities during the day and at night?"

"What do you want to say?"

"If the boss didn't lie, then there is definitely something wrong with this old man, what method did he use to get back the seriously injured or even the dead, if this is a magic formula, then the state will definitely notice, and even if it can't be promoted, it is definitely on the record. But the state has not recorded it, or even heard of it, then this is not a good way.

Coupled with the actions of the people in the town, I'm sure it's definitely an evil magic trick. ”

Listening to Li Kong's analysis, Zhang Han also nodded thoughtfully.

"Captain, I remembered, I once read in an ancient book, there used to be an evil magic skill that lived and died in the flesh and bones, but the person who was cast the spell will gradually become a puppet, without thought and consciousness. Li Kong thought of the evil magic that was similar to this situation in the book that the teacher had given him, and immediately told it.

At the same time, I was silent in my heart, don't be like I think, because such magicians generally use these puppets to feed the fierce dark beasts.
