"Old man, why do you say that?"
The old man slowly placed the teapot in his hand on the table, then supported the edge of the table with one hand, and spoke slowly:
"Although the people in the Maple Valley have all heard of the Cardinal Cult, few have actually seen it, because no one knows exactly where their camp is. Legend has it that anyone who sees them will be immediately caught, and then fed a psychedelic potion that anesthetizes the nerves and gives them a near-invincible power, but completely deprives them of their mind and ability to think. Like the walking dead, he only obeys them and does whatever he is told to do. Because of this legend, almost everyone avoids the words "Cardinal" when they hear these words."
"Then the Cardinal Sect won't come out to act?"
"I basically can't see them during the day, but even if they come out at night, the people who see them can't escape, so how dare they go up and investigate them?"
At this time, they noticed that outside the door of a house not far to their right, there was a girl who was desperately weaving cloth on a loom.
Suddenly, a man who looked old and had a beard on his chin came out of the room, and said to the girl:
"Xiaolan, it's okay, let's go home"
The girl did not stop her knitting feet, but turned back and smiled at him:
"Uncle Zheng, it's okay, I'm not tired"
This person known as Uncle Zheng obviously saw that although this Xiaolan girl was desperately weaving, she was preoccupied, in fact, he still knew a little about her thoughts, and he was afraid that she would be difficult to accept and never said it to her, but now seeing her so uncomfortable, he didn't feel good in his heart, so he decided to persuade her again:
"Xiaolan, there is something Uncle Zheng doesn't know whether to talk about or not"
"What's the matter, Uncle Zheng, let's talk about it", this time she didn't turn her head, staring at the piece of cloth in front of her that was about to be knitted.
"Uncle Zheng knows that you are very worried about the disappearance of Dali, but it is not a way to do this, although I don't want to say this, I am afraid that you will be hit, but watching you work hard day by day to forget the pain in your heart, Uncle Zheng is not a taste to see it. Xiaolan, I'm afraid Dali won't come back, you're still young, it's better to find a good family and get married."
I don't know why, this Xiaolan girl, who was still weaving desperately just now, immediately stopped her feet when she heard these words, and sat in front of the loom, her eyes began to gradually become red, and soon, tears came out of her eyes, she stood up, turned her head, glared at this Uncle Zheng, and shouted:
"Uncle Zheng, what do you say, no matter how long I wait, I will wait until the day when he comes back", after saying that, she ran away crying.
The eldest grandson Jing saw it and felt that their conversation had another meaning, so he stepped forward to this Uncle Zheng.
"Old man, did something happen to that girl's father-in-law just now?"
This Uncle Zheng raised his head and looked at it, and found that he was not a native of them, so he said to the eldest grandson:
"This girl's name is Xiaolan, about a few months ago, her husband Dali, who had just been newly married, went to the mountains opposite Pingding Village one day to cut firewood, and did not come back until the evening. The next day, when the villagers heard about it, they all went there to help find it, and finally saw two bundles of dry firewood on a very narrow bridge. And underneath this small bridge is the legendary Maple Leaf Valley, where an extremely terrifying monster lives. ”
"That is to say, the princess of the little Lan girl just now disappeared on that day", Changsun Jing combined with the maple leaf Ze that the old man said, and couldn't help but think about it.
As for Xu Changhai, he felt that since there was no information from the Cardinal Sect here, it would be useless to stay any longer, so he put down the teacup, stood up, and asked the old man who poured the tea:
"Old man, is there any inn in front of here?"
The old man saw that it was almost dusk at this time, and found that there were about twenty of them, so he said:
"If you don't dislike it, you can rest with us for the night tonight."
Xu Changhai arched his hands and said with a slight smile:
"Thank you, old man, for your tea, you won't bother you when you rest, we still have important things, but I don't know if there is an inn in front of this?"
Seeing that Xu Changhai had made up his mind, the old man no longer kept him, and immediately pointed out the way to them:
"Go forward from here, come to a fork in the road, turn right, and go all the way back, and you will see a Chengqian Inn, just"
"Just what?"
"I don't choose a good place for this inn, but it's built at the foot of a mass grave, and I heard that many guests who live in it have disappeared mysteriously."
Xu Changhai naturally felt a little strange, but now they had to leave, so he said goodbye to the old man:
"Old man, thank you very much for the reminder, we won't bother, there will be a date later"
After speaking, Xu Changhai and the others followed the old man's instructions and set off towards the Chengqian Inn.
Sure enough, according to the old man's guidance, they soon saw four big characters written on a beam on the right hand side at an intersection - Chengqian Inn
In front of the gate on the first floor of this inn, there are three young men who look very close to each other, lighting each other's fires, shouting and shouting, and they are busy.
So, Xu Changhai and the others walked towards the inn.
Soon, one of the three people saw Xu Changhai and the others slowly walking towards this side, and immediately rushed out of the door and greeted him warmly
"Yo, ladies and gentlemen, are you going to stay in the hotel?"
Xu Changhai swept the upstairs and downstairs of this inn with his eyes, and found that the number of rooms was not very large, so he asked:
"Boss, you see we have about 20 people, is there enough room?"
"Yo, guest officer, you came, it's really time, those guests happened to have left yesterday, so these rooms are still empty now."
Su Chen also began to look around with his eyes, and soon he found that behind them outside the house, there was really a strange and deep mass grave.
"I said boss, why did you choose this store under such a mass grave, not afraid of scaring the customers away?"
Seeing Su Chen asking, the shopkeeper hurriedly explained:
"This guest officer, we have also carefully thought out that we chose this place, this person who travels from the south to the north will basically pass through here, you also know, this inn is naturally built where there is a large flow of people, if there is a better place than this, who would want to build under this mass grave. But as for the mass grave you mentioned, then you don't have to worry, it's just made up by some people, and it's nothing at all."
At this time, another person who was busy behind the shopkeeper came over and said to Xu Changhai:
"Ladies and gentlemen, I won't hide it from you, there is another reason why we chose this place."
"Oh? Let's hear it", Changsun Jing asked curiously.
"You may have seen that the three of us look very similar, yes, we are actually brothers, I am the eldest, the one next to me is the second, and the other is the third. Our father and mother died when we were very young, leaving the three of us to depend on each other, and it was in this mass grave behind us that my father and mother were buried, and after they were buried, the three of us brothers left the Maple Valley, but fortunately, we were able to endure hardships, and in the end we survived tenaciously. When we grew up, we started a small business, and finally made some money, and returned to Fenghua Valley, in order to be able to accompany my father and mother from time to time, we built this Chengqian Inn under this mass grave."
"What a filial son, I'm so moved", Liao Fangyi couldn't hide his excitement for a while after listening to these tear-jerking words, and tears of emotion appeared in his eyes.
"Ladies and gentlemen, then you go and choose a room to rest in, and we will cook for you", after saying that, the old man continued to work again.
Then, Xu Changhai and the others began to pick up the rooms to rest tonight one by one, and looked at the wind up and down, left and right, and soon let him find a room with an excellent geographical location facing north and south, so he stepped forward and was just about to push the door in, when he suddenly heard a voice from behind:
"Wait"
Linfeng was startled, and immediately turned around and shouted at him:
"What do you mean, what's wrong with this room?"
Soon, the third child who shouted at the wind came over and explained:
"This little guest officer, this room is really a bit of a problem, because it is not for people to live, but a warehouse with a pile of miscellaneous items, and it is full of miscellaneous items."
When Lin Feng heard this, he suddenly became angry, why did the one he chose become a warehouse, he just didn't believe it, and pushed the door open.
Pushing it open, Linfeng was dumbfounded, because in this room, it was indeed as the little brother said, there was a bunch of disorganized goods inside and out, and a musty smell emitted from time to time choked Linfeng so much that he covered his nose, and then he closed the door again.
"Ahh
At this time, Xu Changhai asked the boss:
"Boss, is there a big place, we may have to discuss something together later"
"Oh, guest officer, you don't have to worry about this, the lobby on the second floor is dedicated to many people for dinner and chatting, and the guest officer can go up after picking a room."
"Okay, I'm tired", after speaking, Xu Changhai went straight to the second floor.
Night fell again, and after Lin Feng and Master had eaten and drunk, they were already lying on their backs on the bed and falling asleep, and the candles in the entire inn had been extinguished.
But in the middle of such a quiet night, the first floor of this inn made a series of unbelievable sounds
"Are you all asleep?"
"I slept like pigs"
"Big brother, why don't we kill those guys too?"
"You idiot, I didn't see how many of them there were, send them away early tomorrow morning"
"Okay, let's move over quickly, the province has a lot of long nights"
So saying, the three fellows pushed open the door of a room, dragged a large bag from under the bed in this room, and dragged it to the outside of the inn.
And this room turned out to be the one that pushed the door in the wind just now and was choked and covered his nose.
I don't know how long time passed, and the three guys came back with a swagger, but as soon as they walked in the door, they noticed that something was wrong, and their rooms on the second floor were all lit up.
"What's going on?" When the boss saw this, he panicked for a while.
"Go up and have a look"
With that, the three of them immediately ran towards the second floor, and when they reached the second floor, they began to test one by one.
"Guest, have you slept?"
"Guest officer, can't you sleep?"
But without exception, the reply received was that no one responded, and the three of them suddenly came to a conclusion that surprised them:
"These guys ran away"
"Are you looking for us?" At this moment, Xu Changhai's voice suddenly came from downstairs.
The three of them immediately turned their heads and looked downstairs, only to see that they were all standing downstairs with their eyes staring straight at them.
The three of them hurriedly walked downstairs, and the boss walked up to Xu Changhai and said softly:
"Ladies and gentlemen, why don't you sleep at such a late hour?"
Changsun Jing looked at these three people who were so sincere, and he really couldn't imagine that they were disguised, but now, he couldn't help but expose them, so he joked:
"Three bosses, why did I just see you dragging a bag out?"
Although Changsun Jing was just ridiculing, the boss could hear the meaning behind it at a glance, and he knew that Xu Changhai and the others had already recognized their identities.
"How did you find out?" , the boss felt that it was really incredible, their disguise could be described as leaky, how could they be seen through.
Su Chen says:
"Actually, your disguise is indeed leaky, we didn't see your identity at all, until the moment we lay down on the bed after eating and drinking, we all firmly believed that the three of you were filial sons"
At this time, Liao Fangyi seemed to have received a ruthless blow, and said aggrievedly:
"Alas, my fragile heart can't withstand such a toss, you three, it really breaks my heart, woo woo"
Then, Xu Changhai finally told the truth that made these three people really feel unbelievable:
"It's not us who really sees through you, it's him", as he spoke, Xu Changhai pointed to the person on his right, and this person was Linfeng.
It turned out that Linfeng drank too much tonight, and then lay on the bed and slept for a long time before the urge to urinate, so he got up from the bed, and walked downstairs in the dark, when he just walked to the fourth staircase, he actually saw a few black shadows dragging a white bag to the door, Linfeng felt strange, so he followed, and soon he found that these black shadows were running towards the grave, so he immediately went upstairs and woke up the master and them.
"Who the hell are you?"
Hearing this, the three of them knew that they couldn't hide it, so they knelt down with a plop
"Heroes, spare your lives, we, we are actually disciples of the Gopher Gate"
"Gopher Gate? What are you engaged in? ”
"Our gopher gate, at first we just stole some food and other things from the villagers' homes, and then there was a red-clothed sect who said that he wanted to make a deal with us and let us be their eyeliner, because they paid us very well, and our boss readily agreed."
"Where's the Cardinal?" , Hearing the three words of the Cardinal Sect, Su Chen immediately interrupted the boss's words as if he was enchanted.
"Under the ground, let's find it yourself", suddenly, these three guys actually drilled directly under them, and disappeared without a trace as soon as they slipped through the smoke, making them all dumbfounded.
"What a gopher door, the ability to drill into the ground"
