Chapter 61: The Robbers

The road to the south was long, still some distance from the waterway, and at this time it was a desolate, uninhabited section.

Jiang Moxi sat in the carriage, lifted the curtain, and looked out, "Mo Guli, this place is relatively desolate, it's still early at this time, it's already dark, and it's a little bit worse than the capital, for the sake of safety, why don't you find a place to rest for one night, and then set off early tomorrow morning." ”

Mo Guli didn't even say that he opened the curtain to take a look, just by his physical sense, the temperature around him didn't look like a lively place.

"Where's the hotel in this place?"

The voice from behind him made Jiang Moxi slightly stunned: "It's the same." ”

Jiang Moxi saw that there were dead trees outside, and it was definitely not easy to find a hotel in this kind of place. The carriage continued to travel some distance, and a dark shadow was faintly sitting in front of it, and both of them were happy, and immediately quickened the pace of the carriage. Up close, it's really a hotel.

But how can there be a hotel in such a ghost place?

The two got out of the carriage in front of the hotel, and the boss came out to greet them and led them to the stable. The two entered the hotel and saw that the whole hotel was quiet.

Jiang Mo couldn't help but feel nervous, his heart suddenly became scared, he grabbed Mo Guli's hand tightly, and leaned over to the person next to him and whispered: "You say, why are there so few people in this place, it's not too late to do this, there are no sharp people, why don't you even wipe the table and pour water." ”

Mo Guli patted the back of her hand to reassure: "We don't know the situation here, it's better to be cautious first, if there is really no problem, we will spend the night and leave early tomorrow morning, if something happens, just deal with it randomly." ”

Jiang Moxi nodded, followed the people sitting in the lobby, and knocked on the table.

"Boss, boss, do you have a menu?"

The boss walked over with a smile, and when he came over, he was still holding a booklet in his hand, with a slight water stain on it, which had just been wiped, which was nothing, love to be clean and normal, but after Jiang Moxi opened the menu, a little spider slipped out of it, which made people frown a little.

When the boss saw this, he said sorry and took the menu away, as if he had gone down and wiped it again.

"Isn't it, there are so many spiders on this menu, how long has his store not been open, and the business is so bad, and the hotel can still open?"

After saying this, the boss came up with the menu, Jiang Moxi took it with a smile, ticked a few people's favorite dishes on the menu, and then handed it to the boss, she asked with a little tentativeness.

"Boss, you look pretty big here, but why don't you see anyone?"

The boss replied with a smile: "Guest officer, you see that there are so few people on this road, how can the business of my hotel be good, and it is difficult to find a second child when it is sparsely populated." ”

"Also, the two of us are in a hurry to find a hotel to rest and walk for half a day, you see it's getting dark, it seems that we have to rest here for a night." Although Mo Guli was puzzled, he still said so.

The boss just smiled and nodded, lifted a door panel from the counter, meaning that the room was occupied, and then took a key and handed it to the two.

"Look at the two of you, it should be a couple of newcomers, I don't know if I got the key right."

Jiang Moxi smiled and took the key: "I got it right, but when will this dish be served?" ”

The boss smiled and walked to the counter, leaving a sentence and immediately stopped talking.

How strange it looks in this place, Jiang Mo regretted that he couldn't stay a little, but after all, it was not so delicate, so he still endured it.

The two of them went upstairs before the dishes were served, and the doors in the corridor were tightly closed, none of them were open, and the black chickens in the door were dirty, but occasionally the sound of footsteps could be heard, and it was a terrifying scene, and Jiang Moxi's brows had not been flat since he wrinkled.

Found his own room and put things in the guest room, sat down and rested for a while, Mo Guli picked up the water cup on the table and was about to pour water, the kettle was full of water, but there were indeed cobwebs in the cup, and after handing it to Jiang Moxi, the two of them looked solemn.

After closing the door, the two of them checked a few small corners, and found that all the inconspicuous places were covered with filthy things, and they could not be used to live in them.

After making sure that the sound insulation effect was not bad, the two walked to the small corner, on the window, there were walls in three places, and the sound was small and they were not afraid of being overheard.

"This place is really weird, you said that this teacup is full of nets, this must have been a long time has not been cleaned, besides, it is not good to take what room to us, to the innermost one, I can observe, if something really happens, we can only jump down from this window, but this is very high, there is no guarantee if there is anything to do, if you go out, there is a zigzag corridor outside, several outflanks, you can't escape at all, of course this is in the case of an accident, and just walked the road before entering the house, I heard footsteps, The two of us are definitely not the only ones living on this second floor. ”

Mo Guli nodded, opened the window and looked, it was at least the third floor of the attic in the capital from the ground, if he jumped under normal circumstances, he could only wait to be caught, and he couldn't walk on the ground at all.

"Let's wait and see, if nothing happens during the meal, then we will take precautions for a night, and then we will not sleep, and if there is something, we will leave directly."

Jiang Moxi nodded, and as soon as he sat back at the table, there was a knock on the door, and the boss's voice came in from outside.

"All the dishes are ready, you can go down and eat."

"Okay, let's go down."

Mo Gu left the voice and led the people down, and when they walked on the road, the two of them were still chatting like no one else, but they didn't know that they were paying attention to the room next to them while talking, wanting to take a peek.

After going downstairs, Jiang Moxi sat down, looked at the table full of dishes and the boss who had already entered the kitchen, and after thinking for a while, he still planned to go to the checkout first.

"I'll go upstairs right away, I don't want to talk to that boss anymore."

Thinking like this, Jiang Mo went to the front desk to call the boss after checking out first, and shouted a few words before the boss responded: "Hey, here, please wait a minute." ”

Jiang Moxi sniffed and frowned, she caught the smell of blood that was about to dissipate in the air, she thought that something must be wrong with this boss.

At this time, the boss came out, Jiang Moxi groped for a while, and said with a smile: "Look, the silver is not here, I'm really stupid, wait for me to get the silver." ”

Jiang Moxi turned around and walked towards Mo Guli, who was eating, she patted Mo Guli, found a position that was not discovered by the boss, leaned over and whispered: "This boss has a problem, be careful." ”

Mo Guli had long felt that something was wrong with the boss, and after understanding what Jiang Moxi meant, Mo Guli deliberately said loudly: "Don't say anything about your money, I'll go settle the bill." ”

Then he turned to Jiang Mo and said, "I'll go, you stay here." ”

Mo Guli walked to the front desk, handed the silver to the boss, and suddenly pressed his head when the boss caught the silver, and asked, "Who are you?" ”

Originally, when the two of them first came, they felt that there was a problem with this boss and this hotel, such a big hotel was opened in such an uninhabited place, and the hotel had only one owner.

The boss was timid, and seeing that Mo Guli was the kind of person with high martial arts, he immediately panicked, afraid that his life would not be guaranteed, so he hurriedly trembled: "I... I'm new to the Bandits... Our boss asked me... Let me practice my hands here..."

Mo Guli frowned slightly, and the strength in his hand was a little bigger: "What about the real owner of this hotel?" ”

The robber only had a voice begging for mercy, and he lost his previous smiling face: "I don't know... I don't really know... I just joined the Bandits, and this place is supposed to be where our boss will test us. ”

As it turned out, this place was already the territory of the bandits.

Jiang Moxi still felt that something was wrong.

"You tell me the truth, what's going on with the smell of blood just now, and there are footsteps upstairs, it's not just you here, right, you are just in there, are there still victims inside, what did you do to them."

The robber just cried and begged for mercy: "I don't know, I really don't know, I was only sent here this morning, I didn't expect to meet someone on the first day here, and it is directly and clearly requested to arrange you in the innermost, as for saying that there are people upstairs, I really don't know, I can't get into the room above, I only have the key to your room, the boss has explained, there is only one room, more is full, the smell of blood, I just killed a goose in the kitchen, it was the dish you ordered." ”

Mo Gu loosened his hand slightly, which meant that his voice was quieter, and when he heard what the robber said, he kept his eyes open: "Can this place be opened in this place, can the officers and soldiers care about it?" Do officers and soldiers care about these bandits? ”

As soon as the robber didn't control his voice, his voice was a little louder, and Mo Guli's hand tightened again: "Ouch, where can the officers and soldiers take care of it, we robbers help so many people, and the officers and soldiers can't catch them." ”

This time, the robber understood what Mo Guli meant, and raised his hand to show that he was clear and let people let go of themselves.

"You give me the honesty to stay here, if you dare to move a step, I will kill you directly, anyway, no one comes here, there are only three of you and me here, this is all from your mouth, if you fake, you know the consequences."

Saying this, the robber was indeed frightened, and Jiang Moxi took the person to the corner, not far from the staircase and the robber.

"In my experience, the smell is definitely the smell of human blood, but the goose in the kitchen is indeed real, then there is only one possibility, it is from upstairs, the staircase is next to the counter, and upstairs, I can assure, there must be someone."
