That pattern is a magic circle that can turn back time.

It's not that Yun Zhongda can go back in time so easily, but he can see what happened in the Mangyi Inn a few months ago. It should be that day now, but it's still very lively, obviously it's not night yet, everyone's voice is very fast, this is specially adjusted by Yun Zhongda, he can't really wait for half a day.

Although there was a constant buzzing in his ears, and these people spoke extremely quickly, this did not affect Yun Zhongda from understanding their words.

Eating in the hall were the people who lived here, as well as the locals of Mangsian.

Obviously, this Mangyi inn is not only an inn business, but also a restaurant.

The shopkeeper is going to plate behind the counter.

Yun Zhongda didn't see Chang Xiaohang, maybe Chang Xiaohang had gone home at this time.

The people in the hall were full of food and drink, and gradually dispersed, and by this time, the light had become a little dim, and it was already night. Yun Zhongda didn't see anyone lighting the lantern, it seems that this lantern is really a habit that was formed after the accident at the Mangyi Inn.

He regretted a little that he didn't bring Chang Xiaohang in, so that he didn't have to guess many things, but could ask directly.

As for protecting Chang Xiaohang, Yun Zhongda thought to himself that he could still do it.

But now that Chang Xiaohang has left, there is no need for him to go out to find it back, so he continues to watch.

There are fewer people talking, and the voice of the speaker gradually becomes smaller.

As a result, the voice of the shopkeeper's plan plate was highlighted. "Da, da, da" is monotonous and harsh.

Yun Zhongda realized that the shopkeeper didn't seem to have come out from behind, and only when someone asked him to ask, he raised his head and answered. After answering, he lowered his head again and continued to quietly plan the plate.

Da, da, da.

Yun Zhongda walked towards the counter and glanced around the back, only the shopkeeper himself was standing, nothing strange.

The only thing that puzzled Yun Zhongda was that the shopkeeper had been standing. The legs have not bent, nor have they shaken.

After standing here all day, won't he feel soreness in his legs?

Yun Zhongda glanced at it. The shopkeeper of the Mangyi Inn not only didn't move from beginning to end, but even his expression was almost nothing, and he was always very calm. Only the guests will barely squeeze out a smile when they come to check out.

Wait until the people are almost gone. The guys began to tidy up the lobby, put the tables and chairs back up, and the shopkeeper began to settle the day's accounts.

Probably settling accounts, Yun Zhongda only saw that the shopkeeper began to count the beads again.

"One, two, three...... Fifty-three, fifty-four, fifty-five. ”

The treasurer counted back and forth at only fifty-five, and finally closed the account book.

Yun Zhongda has been seeing from beginning to end, and the shopkeeper has neither written down this number, nor has it been written in the account book.

Fifty-five? What is it?

Is it the number of guests?

Yun Zhongda rushed to the second floor and went in one room at a time. I memorized all the people inside, but no matter how I counted them, there were only about thirty people.

There's no way he's missing a dozen people. Where are the rest?

If it doesn't refer to the number of guests, what does this fifty-five mean?

Yun Zhongda really didn't plan to investigate these things, but everything was confusing, and he unconsciously became interested.

Now that he is halfway through the investigation, a clue finally appears in front of him, so how can he let it go?

Fifty-five?

What exactly is fifty-five?

Yun Zhongda couldn't count all the fifty-five people, so he went downstairs again.

Because the speed has been adjusted too fast, the shopkeeper has already begun to sort out things, and it is estimated that he will come out soon.

He stood there and hesitated, then ran to the backyard, spun around and ran back, dotting in the lobby one by one.

“…… Fifty-one, fifty-two, fifty-three, fifty-four! ”

Now that number is finally close to fifty-five, but it's still one short.

Yun Zhongda looked at the counter after realizing it: "Fifty-five! ”

It's done! The guests plus the shopkeeper and cook in the Mangyi Inn are exactly fifty-five people!

What is the shopkeeper's number for?

Although he didn't know what to do, Yun Zhongda still decided to follow the shopkeeper, and among all the people here, he was obviously the most abnormal.

……

Although the speed has been adjusted and accelerated, the speed at which the shopkeeper packs things up is still extremely slow.

Yun Zhongda suspected that he had seen a live humanoid snail.

Could it be that this is a snail demon? It's a pity that the formation can only recreate the situation at the time, but it can't let him directly check whether this shopkeeper is a human or a demon......

"Ahem." The shopkeeper coughed and pulled the distracted Yun Zhongda back.

A guy passed by next to him, and when he saw this, he said with concern: "Shopkeeper, are you okay?" ”

"It's fine."

"If you are sick, take a day of rest first, so as not to go home to recuperate like Xiao Chang." He said.

The shopkeeper looked up at him: "Yes, it would be bad if it was like Xiao Chang." ”

"Hmm."

The shopkeeper is a middle-aged man, at least not young, with vicissitudes in his eyes and a thick beard.

Anyway, he looked very unmotivated, and although someone cared about him, it didn't cheer him up.

From Yun Zhongda's personal point of view, it is difficult to understand such a person, as if living is a distressing thing for him.

"By the way, otherwise, you can go see Xiao Chang, right? Send me something. The shopkeeper suddenly stopped the person who cared about him just now, and took out a package for him.

"Huh? I'll go? No, I'll stay here and help. ”

He shook his head: "No, you take it, go and visit Xiao Chang for us." ”

"This ...... All right. It was only when he heard that he was visiting someone that he relented.

The shopkeeper sent him to pack something with a smile, after all, it was late, and it was not convenient to rush back after visiting Chang Xiaohang, maybe this person had a good relationship with Chang Xiaohang, so the shopkeeper asked him to wait for the delivery of things, and then live directly in Chang Xiaohang's house, and wait until the next day to come back, he also agreed.

But why do you want to live in Chang Xiaohang's house? Isn't this person a native of Mangsy Town?

When Yun Zhongda was puzzled, the shopkeeper had already turned around, although it was impossible for him to see Yun Zhongda, but Yun Zhongda was still startled.

Is this shopkeeper looking at him?

At least this gaze, this angle, is looking at him.

Yun Zhongda wanted to try it, so he flashed to the side, but the shopkeeper's gaze still maintained the original angle.

It seems that the target is not him.

Yun Zhongda turned his head along with the shopkeeper's gaze, and then saw a dark figure.

The man's skin was slightly blackened, and it was not normal black, but a burnt black.

Yun Zhongda saw the upturned scar on the person's skin. (To be continued......)
