Chapter 120
"Boomβ"
Yi Xiaoxiao just dragged his luggage into a hotel, the hotel was a little old, and there was a rumbling sound in the sky.
"It's thundering, it's going to rain." A hoarse voice sounded behind her, Yi Xiaoxiao turned her head sharply, her heart was still beating rapidly, and an old face appeared in front of her.
"Girl, do you live in a hotel?" The old man said with a smile, and the folds on his face moved slightly.
"Stay, stay." Yi Xiaoxiao said with a pale face, and her mouth was a little dry. The old man glanced at the face of the girl in front of him, and sighed, "You girl has a cold, you don't know how to grab some medicine to eat, just like my girl, the current girl is like this, I dislike Chinese medicine." β
Li Zhen here is a good Chinese medicine, when Yi Xiaoxiao was sick in the past, her mother brought her here to catch Chinese medicine.
Li Town is a small town in L County, and Yi Village is in this town. With the development of the outside city, many young people have gone out to work, and only some old people and children remain at home.
Yi Xiaoxiao thought that the old man was talking about his granddaughter, calmed his heartbeat slightly, and then smiled, "There are indeed many little girls who don't like Chinese medicine, and they are very bitter." Grandpa, I remember that there used to be a Chinese medicine store called the Li Family Pharmacy here, didn't I?"
After Yi Xiaoxiao finished speaking, the old man opened his toothless mouth, "Yes." Come, little girl, come in, it's raining, it's cold. After saying that, the old man turned and walked into the shop, because the floor was made of old wood, and it creaked when he walked on it.
The old man didn't say that Yi Xiaoxiao didn't think it was still a dog day climate. At this time, he suddenly felt a chill on his body, Yi Xiaoxiao glanced outside, and the sky became darker and darker. After thinking about it, she pulled her luggage and followed behind the old man.
The hotel is not big, there are only two floors, and the lower floor has a special space as a counter, at this time, there is no one there. The upper floor is invisible, and you can see it from below. All you can see is a black patch.
Yi Xiaoxiao looked at the cash register curiously, there was only a simple table, not even a cash register. There is also no computer to record guest information.
This inn is the old man's house, in order to save electricity, the following is simply at the counter where an oil lamp is lit, slightly. Glowing with a yellowish glow.
The old man opened the small door next to the counter and walked in. Seeing Yi Xiaoxiao's curious appearance, he pulled the corners of his mouth, as if he wanted to laugh hard, but his face was a little stiff, and he didn't know why, Yi Xiaoxiao unconsciously held his breath, and his chest was a little hot.
"It's a small shop, not as formal as in the city. The little girl can live with confidence, they all know it. I'm doing a good job. The old man moved, and Yi Xiaoxiao suddenly found that his movements were a little stiff, not as natural and flexible as before.
Watching him move is like seeing an aging machine working hard there.
It's weird.
Yi Xiaoxiao's hand clenched unconsciously, and at this moment, there was a sound from behind him.
With a clang, the door of the inn was slammed open, followed by the sound of "crunch-crunch-" sounded, Yi Xiaoxiao's pale face turned even paler, and he slowly turned his head to see the person behind him.
At this time, the old man standing behind the counter raised his face full of folds, cracked his mouth and smiled: "Dongsheng, you are back." β
Winter? That granddaughter of the old grandfather?
"Mom, you're here?"
Mother? Male?
Yi Xiaoxiao's body stiffened, a pair of eyes stared at the old man tightly, and there was a slight sweat on his forehead.
A young girl in a white dress walked in, with a coolness brought from the outside, passed behind Yi Xiaoxiao, and then entered behind the counter, first smiled at the old man, and then raised her face to look at Yi Xiaoxiao.
It was a miserable white face, and a pair of swarthy eyes were staring at Yi Xiaoxiao like this.
Yi Xiaoxiao's body shook, and he pulled the corners of his mouth stiffly, "Hello, I'm today's tenant." Pretending to be careless, he glanced behind him, "Ha, it's getting dark." β
The more relaxed his face was, the more nervous he was under Yi Xiaoxiao's hand, and the more nervous he was tugging at the pocket of his clothes, where a white letter lay there.
"Yes, guest. When I came back just now, there were no people on the streets, and it was raining heavily. The girl smiled, then took out a towel from the side to wipe her wet hair, which was pressed against the girl's face, and the cheeks were even paler.
The surroundings seemed to suddenly become empty, quiet, without a single sound.
The old hotel, the lit kerosene lamp, and the damp and cold air seeped into Yi Xiaoxiao's body along the pores one by one, cold.
The whole world seemed to become quiet, and for a moment only the old man, the girl, the oil lamp, the little yellow light, the two identical smiles of kindness, the same weird smiles.
"Guest, which house are you going to live in?"
Wrong...... Nothing is right......
Yi Xiaoxiao wanted to move, but found that his body suddenly became stiff, and only the hand that was holding the letter could move slightly.
As if I was back in a dream, the sticky, powerless feeling that I couldn't break free, a clammy cold slowly spread along the soles of my feet, and Yi Xiaoxiao's body trembled a little.
"Guest, which house are you going to live in?" The girl stood up, her long wet black hair clinging to her cheeks, pulling the corners of her mouth slightly, and asked persistently, over and over again: "Guest, which house do you want to live in?" β
"Guest, which house are you going to live in?"
"Guest, which house are you going to live in?"
Yi Xiaoxiao's back was wet and cold, her forehead was full of sweat, and her bangs were wet and clinging to her face.
His lips were a little pale, Yi Xiaoxiao's eyes widened slightly, and he trembled and made a sound, "I ......"
"She doesn't live in the store." A low-pitched magnetic voice came from behind, followed by a slightly cool body rapidly approaching.
The smell of contemplative incense...... It's him, number 42......
A faint human body temperature came from his back, and Yi Xiaoxiao leaned back slightly unconsciously.
She...... I can move......
"She doesn't live in the store." No. 42 walked out from behind Yi Xiaoxiao. A handsome face looked straight at the two of them, and her voice was a little cold, "She doesn't live in the store." β
After speaking. No. 42 didn't wait for the two people to react, and directly turned around and pulled Yi Xiaoxiao outside.
The body was still a little stiff, and Yi Xiao staggered a little along the strength of No. 42 and walked outside.
Yi Xiaoxiao didn't speak all the way, until he was relieved except for the hotel, looked at No. 42, and said with a white face: "Thank you." β
"You know what?" No. 42 looked at Yi Xiaoxiao. The corners of his mouth hooked, "Just there, it was a haunted house." β
"What......" Yi Xiaoxiao's voice was a little dry. No. 42 turned his head sideways, and his face moved slightly, "This is a haunted house before, don't you know." Didn't your mom tell you. Don't go to gloomy places. β
Mom said, "Little." Don't go to eerie places......
Yi Xiaoxiao turned around sharply, the old inn had disappeared, and there was an empty piece behind him. There was only a dark walkway, and at this time they were on the side of the street, with darkness on one side and light on the other.
Looking back, Yi Xiaoxiao's face was even whiter, like a blank piece of paper without color.
Her lips trembled slightly. His pupils shrank, and he looked at the handsome boy in front of him. "How do you know?" Knowing that this is a haunted house, knowing her mother.
No. 42 leaned down, and his slightly cool body approached Yi Xiaoxiao, "I, the exorcism family, Yan Duo." β
Yan......
Yi Xiaoxiao took a step back and looked at Yan Duo with wide eyes, "The Yan family, the ghost exorcism family in S City, ......"
No. 42 hooked his lips, his narrow phoenix eyes were a little cool on his handsome face, and his thin lips opened slightly, "What?" There is a difference. β
After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Yi Xiaoxiao's eyes wandered a little, and it was obvious that what Yan Duo said before to see acquaintances was also fake. Not wanting to say anything more, Yi Xiaoxiao grabbed her luggage tightly, trying to make her tone normal and steady, "I, I'm going to go first, just now, thank you." β
Pulling up the luggage, Yi Xiaoxiao turned around, his heart beating violently, and his hand clutching the pocket of his clothes was so hard that it turned white.
"Your mother is not dead." A magnetic voice sounded behind him.
Yi Xiaoxiao paused, his throat hoarse, "My mother?"
Her mind flashed in an instantβ
Tiny, don't come back......
Yicun ...... A month ago...... The fire burned for three days and three nights...... No one survived......
"Yes, your mother."
"Rubβrubβ" The subtle sound of shoes rubbing against the ground grew closer.
"Not dead." A deep voice rings in the ears.
"What do you want to do? And you've been following me all the time?" His voice trembled a little, and he grabbed his clothes pocket with a little force.
Tricycle...... Haunted House ...... Every word she says, everything she experiences...... He...... You know...... Yan...... Bell......
"Me? I don't want to do anything, just come back to see an old friend, and as for following you...... You can think so too. I think we can have a good talk. Yan Duo didn't wait for Yi Xiaoxiao to answer, took her hand and walked across the street, where there was a hotel.
"A double room." Yan Duo took out his ID card and put it on the counter, and the waiter who was playing with the computer looked up, the waiter was a beautiful woman, with a melon seed face, long straight hair, narrow eyes, a straight nose, and small lips painted with bright red lip gloss.
"Standard room for 300 per night. This is the house number, the key. The beauty's eyes slipped around Yi Xiaoxiao and Yan Duo's bodies, then hooked her red lips and handed Yan Duo a note, "If you need service, you can call this." β
The narrow phoenix eyes turned around the waitress, Yan Duo lowered the ball cap on his head, hooked his lips and said, "Beauty, your face is not good, your fat powder is too much, it will fall off, and this is for you." β
Yan Duo gave a piece of talisman paper to the beauty, and before taking Yi Xiaoxiao's hand and leaving, he turned around and said, "Tonight, remember to stick it in front of your door." Oh, extra services...... I don't think I need to. β
When he said this, Yan Duo's eyes deliberately slipped around Yi Xiaoxiao's body, "You won't mind." β
The waiter's face suddenly turned pale, the hand holding the pen turned white violently, his eyes were a little frightened, and he was stunned for a while when he looked at the rune paper in his hand, and then suddenly raised his head to look at Yan Duo and Yi Xiaoxiao, and at this time, the two had disappeared into the corridor and entered the room.
Along the way, Yi Xiaoxiao didn't speak, one hand was pulled by Yan Duo, the other hand was pulling the luggage, and the pocket of the clothes that was tightly grasped by Yi Xiaoxiao before had become crumpled.
After entering the room and closing the door, Yan Duo let go of Yi Xiaoxiao's hand, and as soon as he was free, Yi Xiaoxiao immediately took a few steps back and looked at Yan Duo with wide eyes.
"Nervous?" Yan Duo took off the ball cap on his head, took two towels in the room slowly, handed them to Yi Xiaoxiao, and then sat on the edge of the bed to wipe his hair, and the rainwater brought in from his shoes slowly accumulated on the floor.
Yi Xiaoxiao squeezed the towel tightly, her right hand was so hard that it turned white, and she said word by word: "Where is my mother?" Her hair was dripping with rain, her bangs were clinging to her forehead, her pale face, and her thin body looked a little fragile.
"I said I was looking at an old friend, who do you think?"
Who is it......
Yi Xiaoxiao raised his head sharply, and said hesitantly with a white face: "Yes...... My mother?"
"Yes, your mother." Yan Duo approached Yi Xiaoxiao fiercely, and a handsome face was almost completely attached to Yi Xiaoxiao's face.
"I ask you, in the car, why didn't you say that you recognized me at that time, didn't you?" The vest was a little sweaty, and the wind outside the house was blowing, and it was icy cold.
Yan Duo raised an eyebrow in acknowledgement, "Yes. β
Yi Xiaoxiao was a little silent for a while, and then looked at Yan Duo with a white face, looking at it very seriously, her voice was a little fluctuating, but more persistent, "You, what do you want from me." β
"You say, you say...... You say! Yi Xiaoxiao took a few steps back, and her luggage was carried to the ground by her fierce movements, "You...... What's the purpose......"
"My purpose? Very simple. Yan Duo put down the towel in his hand and strode closer to Yi Xiaoxiao, his voice a little stern, "Say, what are you doing here?" Why come back? Your mom didn't say she wouldn't let you come back! β
Mom said, "Xiaoxiao, don't come back......
"You...... How do you know?" Yi Xiaoxiao's voice was hoarse, his lips were dry, and his thoughts were frozen for a moment, how could he know his mother's words......
"How so?" Yan Duo took a few steps back, leaving room for Yi Xiaoxiao, who was obviously a little panicked, and then began to say: "In fact, I have been watching you since you came to S City, you are very peaceful and obedient, and you almost never went home during college, until the day before, you suddenly bought a ticket back to L County."
"So...... You followed. β
Yan Duo shrugged, "Yes, because your mother asked me to watch you." β
"Why did ...... mom do that?" How did Mom know someone from the exorcist family?
Yan Duo saw Yi Xiaoxiao's reaction and raised his eyebrows, "It seems that you don't know anything." β
β¦β¦ Don't know anything......
With a white face, Yi Xiaoxiao looked at Yan Duo, her throat was dry, like a voice squeezed out of her throat, "I, what should I know?"
"You should know that you are the only descendant of the Exorcism family and the Yi family."
"Yi Jia......?"
"Yi family, Yi Jing of Yi Ching." (To be continued.) )
