Chapter 26: Let's Sleep Together
Cao Xiaoyang felt that this place was really strange, standing outside the inn, you would find that the inn was brightly lit and noisy, but when you entered the inn, it was dark and quiet, and you could hear a needle falling on the ground.
Now he and Tang Wenwen followed Chen Po upstairs, but downstairs was noisy again.
Although Mrs. Chen, who led the way, was better than the land melon who cheated money just now, she didn't seem to be particularly easy to talk to, so although she was full of curiosity, Cao Xiaoyang didn't dare to ask more.
Po Chen led them to a room where there was only a narrow wooden bed except for a table.
Chen Po said to them: "The rules here are different from those outside, even if you are a ghost, you have to sleep at night, and after a while, you don't get up to deal with any sound, otherwise I will not be responsible if something goes wrong." β
At this time, Cao Xiaoyang said: "Then mother-in-law, can you arrange another room for us, or arrange a room with two beds, after all, it is really inconvenient for us to live here as a man and a woman." β
Chen Po raised her head in confusion. "Aren't you two?"
Because Tang Wenwen was very scared all the way just now, she was still holding Cao Xiaoyang's arm until now, and then she hurriedly let go of Cao Xiaoyang's arm and hid behind him with a red face.
Cao Xiaoyang smiled a little embarrassedly. "No, I...... We're not a couple. β
Po Chen lit the candles in their room and said, "Yes, as long as you give money, I will open as many rooms for you as you want." β
Cao Xiaoyang then remembered that he was penniless now, and even this was a room that was opened for free by favors, so it was really difficult to ask for more, so he turned around and looked at Tang Wenwen.
"Or we'll just spend the night. β
Tang Wenwen nodded.
"Okay two, the time is coming soon, you better rest quickly. β
After speaking, Chen Po walked out of the room and helped them close the door.
At this time, Tang Wenwen sat timidly at the head of the bed, lowered her head and did not speak, and the scene was a little embarrassing.
Cao Xiaoyang put the luggage that Yang Qian had prepared for them on the table, and then found a chair to sit down.
"You said there was something in this luggage, it's such a big bag and it's so heavy, why don't we open it up and take a look." β
In order to break the embarrassing scene, Cao Xiaoyang had to forcibly find a topic to talk about.
"No, Sister Qian said that we have to pass the ghost gate to open it, and the things inside can only be used one by one in order, and if we accidentally lose the things inside when we open it now, we may not be able to go to the ghost town of Xudu." β
Cao Xiaoyang nodded. "Oh, well. β
He coughed symbolically twice. "It's not early, it's almost time. β
"Hmm. β
"That'...... Let's sleep. β
Tang Wenwen raised her head and looked at Cao Xiaoyang with her watery eyes. "How do you sleep in such a small bed?"
Cao Xiaoyang walked to the edge of the bed in two or three steps and sat down, patting the bed board.
"Actually...... With a little squeezing, two people can still sleep. β
Tang Wenwen looked at Cao Xiaoyang aggrievedly.
"Are you really going to sleep with me, shouldn't you volunteer to sleep on the ground at this time, that's how it is played in TV dramas?"
Cao Xiaoyang stomped his feet and smiled.
"There is only one futon here, how cold it is to sleep on the ground, and besides, we are not filming a TV series, so there is no need to put on such a show. β
Tang Wenwen pouted and said, "What kind of show, don't you know the difference between men and women?"
Cao Xiaoyang laughed. "Of course I know, but this is not a special case, so let's not worry about all the red tape. β
Saying that, Cao Xiaoyang picked up Tang Wenwen's legs, took off her shoes, and then forcibly let her lie on the bed, Tang Wenwen was a little caught off guard for a while, and wanted to struggle to get up, but at this time Cao Xiaoyang covered her with the quilt again.
"You sleep inside, I sleep outside, and if there is any danger, I will protect you. β
Cao Xiaoyang's words were very natural, as if Tang Wenwen had agreed to sleep with him.
For his actions just now, Tang Wenwen wanted to get up and scold him for being a hooligan, but when she heard Cao Xiaoyang say so seriously that she wanted to protect her, the insult that came to her mouth was swallowed again.
At this time, she lifted the quilt that covered her body a little, and lay there honestly without speaking, as if she had tacitly compromised.
Although it was a compromise, the expression on Tang Wenwen's face was still aggrieved, and her two eyes wanted to pay attention to Cao Xiaoyang's every move, but she was embarrassed to keep staring at him, so her two big eyes had to keep staring at the ceiling, just paying attention to Cao Xiaoyang with her spare eyes.
Cao Xiaoyang brought the candlestick to the side of the bed, then untied his clothes and coat and took it off, Tang Wenwen finally couldn't help but say: "Sleep when you sleep, what are you doing without your clothes?"
Cao Xiaoyang smiled slightly and said, "I have been used to taking off my clothes and sleeping since I was a child, otherwise I will lose sleep and lose sleep." β
Tang Wenwen covered her eyes and almost cried aggrievedly, when Cao Xiaoyang propped her hands on the bed and put her mouth to Tang Wenwen's ear.
Tang Wenwen noticed his approach, her face and ears became red for a while, and her heartbeat accelerated unconsciously.
Tang Wenwen is a good girl who has received all-round education since she was a child, and naturally understands the principles of etiquette, righteousness, honesty and shame, as well as the truth that men and women do not kiss, and her father even let her learn karate for three years in order to give her the ability to protect herself in dangerous situations.
But I don't know why, this is the way she is, but at this moment it seems that she can't refuse everything Cao Xiaoyang proposes at all, so that even if she feels that Cao Xiaoyang seems to be about to be inferior to her now, she has no intention of resisting, this feeling of wanting to refuse and welcome is really too strange.
Tang Wenwen felt that Cao Xiaoyang's mouth was about to kiss her face, but then she heard Cao Xiaoyang puff, and then laughed.
"Hahaha, it's so fun to bully a good girl, you don't really think I want to take advantage of you, hahaha......"
Tang Wenwen suddenly understood that she was being played with by Cao Xiaoyang, sat up from the bed in a huff, and then kicked Cao Xiaoyang to the ground.
"You pervert!"
It was the first time Cao Xiaoyang saw Tang Wenwen, a lady, lose her temper, and felt even more funny for a while.
"You're still laughing. β
"Okay, stop laughing, stop laughing, my stomach can't stand laughing anymore. β
After laughing, Tang Wenwen sat at the foot of the bed with her knees and said to Cao Xiaoyang, "Then are you going to sleep on the ground?"
"What else do you sleep, when I was in the spiritual tower, my biological clock was already reversed by you, and I can sleep there this big night." β
"But Po Chen said that you must sleep at night here, otherwise you ......."
"Otherwise, what would have happened, would I have seen a ghost?
Seeing Cao Xiaoyang staring at her directly, Tang Wenwen lowered her head embarrassedly.
"Then it's up to you, I'll go to sleep first. β
Cao Xiaoyang wanted to go out of the room to breathe outside, but at this moment, there was a sound of beating on the street outside, and at this time, the room seemed to be blowing wind, and the candle in Cao Xiaoyang's hand flashed twice and then extinguished itself.
At this time, the lights were turned on outside the window, and then there were some strange sounds that made people shudder, Cao Xiaoyang was a little panicked for a while, and turned around to look out the window tremblingly, only to see all kinds of strange figures flashing quickly outside the papier-mΓ’chΓ© window.
Some are as small as cats and dogs, some are as strong as bulls, and some are strangely shaped or even humanoid.
At this time, Tang Wenwen whispered to Cao Xiaoyang: "I seem to have seen it in the book that Brother Bai gave me, there are monsters that can eat ghosts outside at night. β
Cao Xiaoyang was frightened by the dark shadow and sound outside the window, and he didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, so he rushed directly to the bed and got into Tang Wenwen's quilt, and he also hugged Tang Wenwen in his arms by the way.
Tang Wenwen struggled to beat his back. "You rascal. β
Cao Xiaoyang hugged her tighter.
"Don't talk, close your eyes and go to sleep, or the monsters outside will come in and eat you." β
As soon as his words fell, a terrible scream came from outside the door, which frightened Cao Xiaoyang and Tang Wenwen both unconsciously shuddered.
Tang Wenwen finally stopped struggling, and honestly lay in Cao Xiaoyang's arms and closed her eyes.
After the night was fine, after the rooster crowed at dawn, the strange sounds outside finally disappeared, but after a while, the noisy sound of pedestrians sounded outside.
Cao Xiaoyang opened the window and looked outside, only to see that all the shops on the street were open, and pedestrians began to come and go on the street, and it was very lively outside.
Cao Xiaoyang sighed, the night and day of this Yang Yu Capital City are simply two completely different worlds.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Who?"
"Po Chen, I'm here to bring you breakfast. β
Cao Xiaoyang opened the door and saw that Chen Po was carrying a basket with some white pastries in her hand.
Cao Xiaoyang said to Chen Po: "I'm sorry, we don't have any money. β
Chen Po put the basket on the table and said, "It's free, tonight the ghost door is wide open, you are full and ready to go." β
"Oh, thank you Po Chen. β
Chen Po glanced at Tang Wenwen, who was sitting on the edge of the bed combing her hair, and asked Cao Xiaoyang, "How did you sleep last night?"
Cao Xiaoyang smiled. "It's not bad, it's comfortable. β
"As long as you listen to me, you will be safe in this inn, a few days ago a man and a woman also came to stay with me, the man did not listen to me, did not sleep at night and wandered outside, and the next morning there was not even a bone left. β
Cao Xiaoyang was still immersed in Tang Wenwen's charming body fragrance last night, but when he heard Chen Po say this, he suddenly felt a little afraid, because he didn't plan to sleep at the beginning last night.
"One more word of caution, you've been targeted by a stinking mouse, so be careful when you're in a hurry or what you do, and don't believe anything that guy says. β
Cao Xiaoyang was a little puzzled and asked, "Stinky mouse, do you mean the dwarf named the land melon last night?"
"Who is it if it's not him, that guy does some things like cheating and abduction all day long, so be careful. β
"Okay, I see, thanks for the reminder. β
