Chapter 90: Mystery

In the cold room of the roadside inn, the candlelight spreads out in a little bit. The little boy squatted on the corner of the wall with his hands in www.biquge.info pen "Fun" pavilion, slowly eating steamed buns. Yan Huiqi originally wanted to pull the little boy to eat on the table, but the little boy refused. The little boy seemed to be afraid of fire.

"Give...... This is the last thing left. We're almost going to pack up and get out of the wilderness! The innkeeper clasped his hand and asked Xiao Er to bring some food. Xiao Er looked inside, sighed, and turned to leave.

Yan Huiqi looked at Xiao Er suspiciously and sighed, but the innkeeper didn't leave immediately, he walked in and sat down opposite Yan Huiqi silently, "Actually, you're right." Seeing one child after another die, our conscience is not overwhelmed. Just ......"

"It's just...... What the? Looking at the innkeeper's lowered head, Yan Huiqi's heart suddenly beat faster.

Ming Fan closed his eyes, sat down beside Yan Huiqi, and gently patted her shoulder, Ming Fan looked at Yan Huiqi comfortingly. Yan Huiqi knew that her emotions just now had probably fallen into Ming Fan's eyes, and she couldn't help but glance at Ming Fan with some gratitude.

Ming Fan lowered his head, he loyally didn't want Yan Huiqi to get involved in this dispute.

"Speaking of which, it was a long time ago!" The innkeeper raised his head slightly, closed his eyes, and the catastrophe seemed to remain in his memory.

"A year ago, there was a very serious fire here. You didn't see the situation at that time, and half of the sky burned red. In the evening, we didn't even have time to get dressed before we were shouted to fetch water to put out the fire. The place where the fire started this time was the Yamen Mansion, but the strange place is also here. In the Yamen Mansion, there was no one. There wasn't even a charred person, but there was a lot of blood on the ground. Look at the fire that is terrifying! Saying this, the innkeeper couldn't help but swallow his saliva. The candle rang softly, and the innkeeper looked at the candle and then at the little boy who was still squatting in the corner after eating the buns, and sighed deeply.

"But that's not the end of it! A few days later, it was discovered that the bodies of many children had been found in the back mountain, all of which had been burned by the fire. The body is placed in the back mountain, which is simply a loss of conscience! The innkeeper patted his head as he spoke, "But since then, I don't know why." There began to be a rumor among people that any child who saw the fire would eventually die. Anyone who comes into contact with these children will die! ”

Yan Huiqi clenched her fists tightly, she kind of understood the little boy's mood. It was easy to escape from the fire, but it was faced with an indifferent crowd that could not be avoided. This kind of feeling of being rejected by everyone, no wonder they want to die quickly......

Standing up, Yan Huiqi walked to the corner and gently hugged the little boy's body, "It's okay, it's okay!" She whispered in the little boy's ear, and then felt the little boy's body tremble for a while.

"You ...... If you want to know more about it, it's best not to leave your child with you. In this way, everyone will avoid it, after all, after all, a few more people died! ”

How many more people died? Yan Huiqi looked at the innkeeper with wide eyes, is it a victim? To make this seemingly far-fetched rumor seem more convincing.

"So, it's the adults who die?" Yan Huiqi asked. However, the innkeeper shook his head, "Not really, the next ones are children." However, although it is said that it is a child, it is ......"

"But what?" Yan Huiqi walked to the innkeeper's side, she had to ask clearly today. The innkeeper scratched his head, thought for a moment, and then shook his head slightly, "Actually, it's nothing, what do you say about the child who died after that." There are traces of fire, but ...... I always think it's a little strange! ”

"On the corpse...... Did anything else be left behind? Ming Fan interjected coldly, Yan Huiqi turned back suspiciously, and at this moment Ming Fan's face was replaced by a seriousness. Didn't Ming Fan care about this when he was investigating this matter?

The innkeeper didn't seem to want to say more, but nodded slightly, and wanted to quit. However, before he could leave, he was grabbed by Yan Huiqi's sleeve.

"You know what! Something about kids! Yan Huiqi grabbed the innkeeper's clothes tightly, Ming Fan was specifically going to investigate this matter, and he didn't even notice it, but the innkeeper passed it by intentionally or unintentionally, and he was really hiding something!

"I ...... I do not know! The innkeeper's hand trembled unconsciously, it wasn't something he could see on purpose, it wasn't really. He hid this matter just to survive. This rumor is just a rumor, he knows it, but he doesn't dare to break it. If the point is broken, it will be extinguished!

Yan Huiqi could feel the innkeeper's fear, indeed, if ordinary people knew about this kind of confidential thing, they should be worried about being killed! Yan Huiqi noticed that the boss used the word "rumor" when he said the rumor about the child, which showed that the innkeeper did not believe the rumor.

"If you're worried about something!" Ming Fan abruptly stood up from his seat, "Then, I'll be responsible for your safety!" ”

Yan Huiqi looked at Ming Fan who stood up suspiciously, although she said that she was protecting the innkeeper, but Yan Huiqi noticed that Ming Fan's eyes had never left her from the beginning. It's for yourself! Yan Huiqi put down the hand of the innkeeper, and she would definitely ask the truth of the matter. But he didn't have enough ability to say words of protection, and Ming Fan just filled this gap.

"How?" Yan Huiqi gently asked the innkeeper who was standing still and didn't move, "This guy is very strong." And I don't believe in grudges or anything! ”

"There's no grudge at all!" The innkeeper pulled the clothes that were messed up by Yan Huiqi, closed his eyes, and he turned around as if he had made a big decision, and said word by word, "Little child...... The child who died in the back was killed. I saw it with my own eyes when I went to drink that day. But...... But I don't have the courage to stop them......"

They? Yan Huiqi was stunned, she was not alone. However, this kind of thing must come from the will of a certain person or a certain group of people, and then be carried out by another group of people. However, no matter how you think about it, how many people do you need to dispatch to kill a child?

Obviously, Ming Fan also noticed this, and unconsciously leaned towards Yan Huiqi. The innkeeper smiled lowly, "That's right, it's them!" As he said this, he suddenly took out a knife from his sleeve and slashed towards Yan Huiqi.

"Phew!" There was a crisp sound, and the little boy sitting in the corner stared at what was happening in front of him with wide eyes. Yan Huiqi's fist knocked out the innkeeper, and the knife in the innkeeper's hand was knocked away by Ming Fan. The dangling knife fell to the ground, making the little boy sigh.

Then there was a muffled sound, the sound of the innkeeper falling inside the room. The innkeeper is not dead yet, but Xiao Er will come up soon, and when he sees the fallen boss, he will probably misreport the situation and say that the innkeeper is dead. It just so happened that he came to the inn with a child, so he added another fact to the rumors. Cut, is it a trap again? Who set it, or...... Just a coincidence.

Ming Fan stood behind Yan Huiqi with his hands crossed, neither saying that he wanted to leave nor that he wanted to stay. He believed in his own ability, and now, he also began to believe in Yan Huiqi's ability a little.

Looking at the little boy sitting in the corner, Yan Huiqi smiled slightly, picked up her hand and stood against the door panel. As she expected, the person who came up was not just the shopkeeper.

"Ah...... Someone died! ”

"Is this the power of the Curse?"

"Next, isn't it the turn of those two people?"

……

Someone in the crowd was constantly whispering, and the shopkeeper tentatively walked to the innkeeper's side, however, he just wanted to bend down to test the innkeeper's snort, but was interrupted by Yan Huiqi.

The shopkeeper frowned unconsciously, but still raised his head to look at Yan Huiqi suspiciously.

Yan Huiqi walked up to the innkeeper and said loudly to the crowd below who were still talking, "He's not dead yet, but he fainted!" ”

"Passed out?" ...... "So the power of the curse is not enough, so it can't hurt adults?" "It's scary!" ……

Yan Huiqi paid special attention to the person who said that the power of the curse was not enough, but in the crowd, he hid it very deeply. And when he said this, several people spoke out at the same time, and they were cleverly covered up.

Ming Fan walked to Yan Huiqi's side vigilantly, he didn't know the person who came. If you don't know each other, you don't know the depth of each other's abilities.

In this stalemate, the little boy walked out as if no one was around. Seeing the little boy come out, the crowd retreated. The little boy stroked his charred face with his hand. Then he walked up to Yan Huiqi and pulled Yan Huiqi's clothes.

Yan Huiqi squatted down suspiciously, only to hear the little boy's soft voice, "It wasn't this group of people last time!" "Not this group of people last time? What do you mean? Yan Huiqi was stunned.

When the boy had finished speaking, he yawned heavily, rubbed his eyes, and went back to the corner and sat down.

"What's going on?" There were people in the crowd asking questions. Yan Huiqi looked back at this group of people, and remembered the little boy's words again, it wasn't this group of people last time, did the little boy want to tell himself that there was no killer in this group of people?

Unsure of this matter, Yan Huiqi bit her lip. There was a muffled sound from the wooden board behind her, and Yan Huiqi looked back to see that the innkeeper had indeed woken up. Also at this moment, Ming Fan made an instant move and laid down the hidden weapon in the shop's second-hand shop. (To be continued.) )
