"That? What's that? ”

The woman's words aroused Sikong Yao's curiosity. Baidu: real name +

The woman smiled sickly and said happily, "That's a good thing, it's a delicacy in the world, and only Mr. Housekeeper can make such a fascinating delicacy." ”

"Food? Mr. Housekeeper, are you a chef? As soon as he heard the food, Sikong Yao's eyes immediately burst into a feverish light, he didn't expect to meet a chef in this barren mountain and wilderness, and listening to the woman's evaluation, the cooking skills were obviously not low.

The woman replied, "Yes, the butler is a first-class cook, and since he came, we have not been able to eat anything made by others." ”

Sikong Yao said excitedly: "Really? Mr. Butler, what kind of chef are you? Dessert? Is it Chinese or Western? ”

The housekeeper hurriedly shirked and said, "No, no, no, the master and grandma have won the prize, you guys go to the house first, and I'll send the food over later." ”

Sikong Yao said: "Mr. Butler, let me help you, you are too hard alone." ”

The butler closed the kitchen door with his backhand and prevaricated: "No, the kitchen is dirty, you should take a rest in the room." ”

The man said, "Mr. butler, they are all guests, so let them dine with us." ”

The housekeeper looked a little embarrassed, and said reluctantly: "Master, I'm afraid this is inappropriate." ”

The man said: "How can it be inappropriate, the food has to be shared together." ”

The butler hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, then you can go and sit in the dining room first." ”

Sikong Yao and Meng Xiyao came to the restaurant under the leadership of the two couples, and after a while, the housekeeper brought four dishes.

A pot of porridge and a few side dishes, ordinary, compared with the palatial villa, it seems a little simple.

The man said with some displeasure: "Mr. Butler, what about 'that'?" ”

The housekeeper replied: "Master, that one is still grinding." Shall I send it to your room later? You eat first. ”

The man began to become agitated, and blood creeped up to his eyeholes one by one, and said, "No, I won't eat it." I just want to drink that. ”

The atmosphere was a little weird for a while, the protagonist refused to pick up chopsticks, and Sikong Yao was naturally embarrassed to eat.

They froze for a while, until the pot of porridge was cold, and the two owners just kept tapping their fingers on the armrests of the chairs, as if they were numb as a machine.

The housekeeper An persuaded: "You eat first, it won't taste good if it's cold." ”

After a while, the man asked anxiously, "Mr. Butler, is that okay?" ”

The butler laughed but said nothing, and the man finally couldn't help it. His eyes were dilated, his eyes were glazed, and he shouted as if he was enchanted: "Give me that!" ”

The abnormality of the two couples obviously frightened Sikong Yao, who asked the housekeeper, "Mr. Housekeeper, what exactly is 'that'?" ”

The couple apparently noticed that there were outsiders there. It's not too rude, so he restrained his anxious mood a little, and said, "Butler, quickly bring that one, I miss that taste so much, I can't eat anything else." ”

The butler looked solemn and hesitated for a moment. In the end, he replied, "Okay, then wait a minute, I'll do it." ”

The housekeeper slowly walked back to the kitchen, Sikong Yao and Meng Xiyao glanced at each other, always feeling a little strange.

The couple's mood slowly became irritable again, and about half an hour later. The butler walked out with four cups of apricot-colored drinks.

The housekeeper said, "Master, the walnut almond syrup you want." ”

When the man saw the walnut almond syrup, as if he had seen the dawn of hope, he smiled a little crazy and said, "Okay, good." Give it to me, give it to me. ”

Sikong Yao took a sip, although the walnut almond syrup was thick and smooth, it was only of an average level, so it would not be so fascinating.

Sikong Yao took a closer look and found that the walnut juice of the two owners seemed to be darker.

Out of politeness, Sikong Yao still praised: "Mr. Housekeeper, what you make is so delicious." ”

The housekeeper also smiled and said, "If you like it, it's fine." ”

The two couples drank a large cup of peach walnut syrup almost in one gulp, smiled contentedly, and gradually regained their senses.

The man said with satisfaction: "Sure enough, this thing is still the best, hehehe, you use it slowly, I'll go back and rest first." ”

Sikong Yao nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, thank you." ”

After a brief dinner, Sikong Yao and Meng Xiyao went back to their rooms to rest.

Outside the window, the rain began to fall heavier and heavier, and the last thunder exploded, and the pouring rain hit the glass window with the might of a galloping horse, making a "tick-tock" sound.

After the thunder, the villa suddenly became dark, and it seemed that the power was cut off because of the thunder.

It was pitch black all around, and there was nothing to do, so Sikong Yao lay quietly on the bed and looked at the ceiling, his consciousness began to blur, and he was indeed tired after a whole day of mountain road.

Sikong Yao slowly closed her eyes and prepared to go to bed.

Suddenly, the sound of rain became louder, and a bone-chilling cold wind blew in through the window.

Sikong Yao got up and wanted to close the window, but at the same time, a silver snake fell, illuminating the sky in an instant.

Sikong Yao suddenly let out a piercing scream, only to see a cloaked figure lying on the edge of the window, and before he could be frightened, the terrifying ghost figure floated in, and one hand suddenly covered Sikong Yao's mouth.

It's soft and delicate to the touch, but it's even more terrifying.

Sikong Yao didn't have time to resist, and suddenly a tear fell on her face, slightly stunned, and after calming down, she found that the person turned out to be the girl she met in the evening.

The girl wept, but she did not dare to make a sound, for fear of being discovered.

Sikong Yao calmed down and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

The girl stopped crying and replied, "Get out of here quickly, it's dangerous here." ”

Sikong Yao asked puzzledly, "What is the danger?" ”

The girl took a deep breath, as if she had made some important decision, and said, "The butler is not a good man, you must beware of him." ”

"Butler? Is there anything wrong with the housekeeper? ”

Just when Sikong Yao was in doubt, the door was suddenly knocked on, and it sounded softly three times, showing that the quality of the people outside the door was not low.

The butler's voice sounded, "Miss Sikong Yao, I heard your screams just now, please don't be afraid, it's just that the power is off and I brought you candles." ”

As soon as Sikong Yao turned around, the girl had disappeared, a glass window swayed back and forth in the wind, and the rain fell on the floor through the gap.

The butler asked urgingly, "May I come in?" ”

Sikong Yao hurriedly replied: "Okay, I'll open the door for you." ”

Sikong Yao took the candle handed over by the butler and found that his gaze was staring blankly into the room.

Sikong Yao covered the door and asked, "Mr. Butler, what else is there?" ”

The housekeeper squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Miss Sikong Yao, are you the only one in the room?" ”

Sikong Yao nodded and said, "Yes." ”

The butler reminded, "Really? Remember to close the window. ”

Sikong Yao responded: "Okay, if it's okay, I'm going to rest." ”

"Sorry to interrupt." It wasn't until Sikong Yao closed the door that the housekeeper slowly walked towards the girl's room and opened the girl's door directly with the key, and the room was empty.

The butler closed the half-open glass window and locked the lock, then walked out of the room and locked the door with his hand.

The housekeeper walked towards Sikong Yao's room again, his steps became more and more urgent, and a cold light suddenly flashed in his sleeve.

At this time, Meng Xiyao slammed open the house, and the housekeeper was stunned for a moment, and then showed his trademark smile and said, "Mr. Meng hasn't slept yet?" ”

The originally empty corridor was very prone to echoes, and at this time, Meng Xiyao deliberately raised his voice and said: "I was asleep, but suddenly the power went out, and it was a little stuffy, so I woke up." ”

In this way, Sikong Yao, who was hiding in the room, also heard his voice.

The housekeeper apologized: "I see, I'm really sorry, I don't take care of it, please forgive me." ”

Meng Xiyao asked, "Mr. Butler, do you still have candles here?" ”

The butler glanced at the girl's door, and then replied, "Also, in the storage room on the first floor." ”

Meng Xiyao moved a step to the side slightly, blocking the housekeeper's forward route, and said, "Can Mr. Housekeeper take me over?" I don't know the way. ”

The housekeeper shirked and said, "I'm sorry, I still have to send candles to the young lady." ”

Meng Xiyao smiled, looked at the housekeeper's empty hands, and asked, "Really?" What about candles? ”

The housekeeper paused slightly, and said with a smile: "Look at my brain, I forgot to give it all to Miss Sikong Yao, so let's go downstairs with me to get the candle." ”

Meng Xiyao responded: "In this way, it will trouble Mr. Housekeeper." ”

"Come with me."

Meng Xiyao followed the housekeeper downstairs, Sikong Yao opened the door slightly, and after seeing the two leave, he crept out, closed the door gently, and kept the sound to a minimum.

After Meng Xiyao took two candles, he took the initiative to ask: "Mr. housekeeper, it's not too early, you go back to the house early to rest, and I will give this candle to Miss for you." ”

The housekeeper glanced at Meng Xiyao and said slowly, "Okay, then I'll trouble you." ”

After seeing the housekeeper go back to the house, Meng Xiyao slowly went upstairs, knocked on the girl's door over and over again, and after a long time, no one opened the door, so he went back to his house.

Meng Xiyao lit a candle casually, and the red light danced, illuminating Sikong Yao's figure.

Meng Xiyao asked, "Did you find anything?" ”

Sikong Yao slowly spread out his hand, revealing a handful of brown dried fruit shells, and responded, "No, I just found some walnut shells in the kitchen." ”
