Chapter 109: In Danger
Jing Dingcheng came back quickly, and the two Western knives were delivered to Wang Mengxiong's hands very quickly. This kind of Western knife is made of steel throughout, because there is only a blade on one side, the blade is narrow and long, and it is not sharp.
"Mr. Jing, what are you busy with? Why steal kitchen knives? I'm going up? ”
There was a shout from downstairs, which sounded like the voice of Steward Hu.
"Ignore him!" Wang Mengxiong looked at Jing Dingcheng and shook his head, and stabbed the dinner knife into the thick wooden board with his backhand. With the blessing of Hercules, these two table knives instantly became divine weapons, and after two snatches, they pierced the door through the thick wooden plank, fixed the thick wooden board like nails, and completely blocked the door hole.
Footsteps sounded on the floor, and it seemed that Steward Hu was coming up. Wang Mengxiong pushed Jing Dingcheng's shoulder and said, "You go to find Master Chu, and by the way, drag Steward Hu, I want to go to the third floor to have a look." ”
Without waiting for Jing Dingcheng to speak, he ran through the corridor like a tanuki, opened the window at the end of the corridor, put his hand on the window sill, jumped up, and quickly disappeared into the window of the corridor on the third floor. Jing Dingcheng hurriedly ran towards Chu Yigong's bedroom, moved the wooden board that was also on the door of the bedroom, slammed the door open and rushed in.
"Who?"
Chu Yigong and his wife, one with a disabled leg and the other with a sick body, were both inconvenient to move, and they heard strange voices, and they had already trembled with fright. Even if Wang Mengxiong and the two of them made such a big movement in the corridor outside, they couldn't go out to check, they just hoped that Wang Mengxiong could exert his might and drive away the things that had been bothering them for a long time.
"It's Mei Jiu? What's going on outside, such a big movement, the little doctor is okay, right? ”
"Don't worry, Brother Jingyuan, sister-in-law, that child is very capable, and he will definitely be fine. No, he told me to come with you both, so as not to be disturbed. He's gone to the third floor now to see what's going on! ”
There was another sound of footsteps outside the door, and the muzzle of the gun in Jing Dingcheng's hand involuntarily raised slightly, facing the door. It wasn't until that familiar face was revealed that he put the gun in his hand into his arms again.
Steward Hu ran in with sweat on his head, and was pointed at the muzzle of Jing Dingcheng's black hole, and the beads of sweat on his head instantly became a string, crackling and falling down, and his hands were raised high, for fear that he would accidentally go away. Seeing that he put away the gun, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and wiped his sweat vigorously with a handkerchief. "Mr. Mei Jiu, this guy is not joking. If you just shake your hand, my old life will be here. ”
"Don't worry, Steward Hu, I haven't turned on this bolt yet, so I won't go off. But why didn't you make a sound before you ran in, if you were really injured by mistake, I couldn't feel at ease! ”
"My fault, Mr. Mei Jiu, I am anxious about the safety of the lord and the wife, and I heard that you took two knives and ran upstairs, I was afraid that something would happen to everyone, so I was anxious. But why didn't you see the little miracle doctor, is he still in the guest room? ”
Maybe someone familiar came, Chu Yigong's mood calmed down, and he could start arranging things. He asked Steward Hu to leave the two of them alone, with Mr. Mei Jiu here, there would be no problem. Now first of all, we must bring the young nephew and grandchildren over, so that everyone can strengthen their courage together, and it will also be convenient for the little miracle doctor to act.
Here, Steward Hu went to find someone according to his instructions, and Wang Mengxiong, who had already entered the third floor, was in a crisis.
When I pushed open the corridor window from the window sill on the third floor, there were only a few wall lamps emitting a dim yellow light from the entire corridor on the third floor. Who knew that the moment Wang Mengxiong's footsteps landed, the lights in the entire corridor were all extinguished, but the moonlight behind him shone through the glass, stretching his shadow long on the ground.
"Pretending to be a ghost is nothing more than pulling off the electric switch on the third floor, causing a sudden power outage. In this way, it made me judge myself even more! ”
Wang Mengxiong said disdainfully in his mouth, but his heart greatly increased his vigilance. Being able to pinch the time so accurately, can cause the mutation of the crows, and can make the people of the Sangha and the Yin and Yang sects disgraced, the water in this is indeed very deep, and these people's strange skills are also calculated, and they must not follow in the footsteps of those schools and lose the face of the natural gate and Master Du Xinwu.
The carpet under his feet was very soft, and he walked on it with his short stature, as if he was stepping on a cotton ball, and he had a feeling of soaring through the clouds. The fine dust is raised and illuminated by the moonlight, which has the effect of cloud smoke.
"Carpet?"
Wang Mengxiong suddenly felt that something was wrong, "The pattern of this corridor should be unified according to common sense, and I also took a look at it when I passed by the corridor on the second floor before going to bed, it was a wooden floor, shiny and shiny, and it could shine a human figure, otherwise it would be impossible to hear the footsteps of Jing Dingcheng in the corridor when I was in the guest room just now." Now on the third floor, it has been replaced by carpet, which is completely unreasonable. ”
He reached for a handful on the wall and put his finger in front of his eyes. With the help of the moonlight, it was covered with black marks, as if the wall had been baptized by the years, and no one had cleaned it for a long time. Combined with the dust on the carpet, the dirty walls, and the recognizable appearance of the second-floor floor, he reluctantly came to a conclusion.
"This is definitely not the third floor of the Chu Mansion! Mrs. Nachu was only bedridden for two or three months, and these cleaning subordinates would never dare to be lazy to such an extent. Are there really ghosts? Led me into a hallucination? ”
While he was thinking about it, the door to a room in the middle of the hallway suddenly opened with a creaking sound. A bright light streamed through it, illuminating a small corridor nearby.
There was a sound of footsteps inside, and the grinding of wooden planks, as if someone was dragging a heavy chair, stumbling from time to time.
"Come on, come on! Get me! ”
The voice is high-pitched, and it seems to be a little girl, playing hide and seek with her companions. But there was no movement in the room except for her own voice, as if it was a person talking to herself.
"Niang Xipi, it's not like I haven't seen ghosts, that little Ling'er's mother hid far away when she saw me, how strong can you be."
Wang Mengxiong was bold, no longer entangled in the question of whether it was a human or a ghost, but clenched his fist with one hand, and held the flying knife with the other, and quickly ran forward, throwing himself into the bright light. Behind him, the door slammed shut as if someone had pushed it, and the hallway was once again in darkness.
After a short moment, the entire corridor was lit up again, and under the illumination of the corridor lamp, the waxed wooden floor reflected a row of lights, and also reflected the snow-white walls on both sides, as well as several figures and landscape paintings hanging on the walls, which looked unusually neat.
