Chapter 29: The Cat-Faced Old Lady (3)

Gao Mujuan looked at me gratefully, as if she saw hope again, she nodded heavily and stopped talking, and then, she carefully sorted out the tools in my bag to make sure that the time was foolproof!

When the tiredness came up, we rested for a while, and then my stomach started to growl.

Seeing this, Gao Mujuan secretly covered her mouth and laughed at me, and I smiled embarrassedly when I saw her happy appearance from grief.

In this way, just as the two of us were tidying up our things and wanted to go out to the hotel to find some food, as soon as I opened the door, a figure suddenly stumbled and fell in front of us, which caught me and Gao Mujuan off guard!

"What are you doing here, innkeeper?"

After a brief moment of stunnedness, I became vigilant!

Because looking at the posture of this man's fall, it seems as if he is lying behind our door and eavesdropping on something!

I saw that the innkeeper got up with an embarrassed face and said with a smile: "I'm sorry! Excuse me! As for the cleanliness and hygiene, the floor is slippery, it doesn't scare you, does it? ”

The innkeeper said, gesturing to the cleaning mop that was sitting aside.

"Really?"

I looked in the direction of my finger and looked at the innkeeper with a slight suspicion, noncommittal to his words!

The innkeeper was stared at by me, as if he realized something, and said with a smile: "Hehe, don't get me wrong, this hotel is a regular conscientious business, and there is a business license, so you can live with confidence." ”

It's okay that he didn't say this, but when he said it, I hesitated, I looked at Gao Mujuan to ask for her opinion, and saw that Gao Mujuan just nodded at me, so I said.

"Hehe, the boss laughed, there is nothing valuable on us and there is nothing to worry about, I am saying that now the network technology is so developed, if we really have something, the boss you can't run away."

I jokingly looked at the innkeeper and tactfully expressed the meaning of his words.

"Hehe, of course, of course." The innkeeper laughed.

Actually, I didn't mean to leave the inn in my heart, and I mainly wanted to scare the innkeeper when I said this.

Because the town is along the south and the place is remote, in addition to this hotel, there is no second hotel in this town.

If I really leave, it doesn't matter if I'm a big man, but Gao Mujuan is different, I can't let Gao Mujuan stay with me on the streets of the town because of the innkeeper's move, right?

Maybe I'm too suspicious these days, and I always think that I can think of ghosts when people are abnormal, anyway, we can't stay for a few days, and we will leave as soon as Gao Mujuan and her grandmother's affairs are resolved.

And in the meantime, as long as we lock the door at night when we rest, even if the innkeeper wants to premeditate against us, I really don't believe that he can turn the day and show up in our room.

When I think about it, I'm relieved!

Just as Takagijuan and I were walking towards the corridor to leave the hotel, the innkeeper's voice came from behind and called.

"You two must be back before twelve o'clock in the evening!"

I waved my hand nonchalantly and said, "Got it, boss." ”

In this way, we ate some local specialties in a small stir-fry at a farmhouse, and after resting for a while, it soon ushered in the fall of night.

On the way, I asked Gao Mujuan if she would be afraid to stay alone in a hotel at night, and Gao Mujuan also jokingly asked me if I wanted me to sleep with her?

I had never known that this woman could speak so boldly, and at once she blushed and explained to her that the innkeeper was eavesdropping on our door during the day.

Gao Mujuan said disapprerovingly: "Actually, I have a relationship with the innkeeper, that is when I had a high fever when I was a child, once my grandmother took me to the town overnight to prescribe medicine, because it was too late, we stayed in the hotel overnight." ”

"Hey, you know the innkeeper?"

I was a little surprised: "So, isn't this hotel in business for more than ten years?" ”

Gao Mujuan nodded when she heard this, and told me that most of the people in the town knew the owner of the hotel, including the people in their village.

And the reason why Gao Mujuan knew the innkeeper was from when she was a child.

At that time, the innkeeper had just married his daughter-in-law, and he loved his daughter-in-law very much, and everyone said that this was because the daughter-in-law was a beautiful lady from the city, and she was as beautiful as a flower.

At that time, the people in Gao Mujuan's village kept touting, saying that the innkeeper didn't know what kind of incense he burned in his previous life, and he was able to ask for such a beautiful daughter-in-law in this life.

It was only later that she heard that her daughter-in-law had some disease and passed away, and the innkeeper was so grief-stricken that he guarded her daughter-in-law's body for several days without water, and closed down for a long time.

That's why Takagi was particularly impressed by the innkeeper, which is why she didn't take my words seriously.

Because in the face of such an affectionate man, Takagijuan doesn't think the innkeeper is a bad person!

I can't refute Takagijuan's words, and I didn't know that there was such a story in the innkeeper.

I can't help but feel in my heart, sighing and reminiscing about the past, but the building is empty!

"What you say makes sense, but I'm overthinking."

I exhaled and asked, "Why didn't the innkeeper recognize you since you've met you?" ”

"Huh."

Gao Mujuan smiled suddenly, she stepped on it step by step along the steps I had, and her heart was never steady.

"Fool, they all say that the eighteenth change of the female university, I was still a yellow-faced little girl at that time, if the innkeeper could recognize me, it would be hell."

"Haha. That's right. ”

I couldn't help but laugh out loud at my question.

In this way, the two of us kept talking, laughing and laughing, and soon approached the village!

Gao Mujuan said that the place where her grandmother was buried was on the hill behind the Land Temple, and I didn't dare to turn on the handlights along the way, for fear of causing the people in the village to notice, and even the steps I took were cautious.

Fortunately, Gao Mujuan was still familiar with the place in her village, according to what she said, and I led the way in front, and one of us held a shovel and cowered through a large field of crops.

The people in the village are not as busy and noisy as in the city, and at night, the villagers rarely go out of the house at night, and most of their entertainment activities are watching color TV at home.

This undoubtedly made our movement much easier, and soon the two of us were rounding down the hill.

It's the back to the village, and the next up is the direction of the mountain!

The moonlight was hazy and silent, and we didn't have to worry that the people in the village would find us, so I turned on the hand lamp and shone it around, and after walking for a while, I also saw the land temple that Gao Mujuan said was sitting above the stream!

The pattern of the land god building is not large, the wall built by red bricks mixed with marl stones, inside is the appearance of the land god, in front of the land god, there are some incense offerings that seem to have been offered recently.

In the early years, there was a folk saying that the god of the land was the god of good fortune, the god in charge of guarding the place.

I carefully looked at the appearance of the land temple, and around the statue, I could still see some dried bloodstains, which should have been left by a sick cat.

Except for the Dharma body made of materials, its body is facing the direction of the village, taking in the whole view of the village.

And I also found that the eyes of the land god are very weird, and the dark red in his eyes can't help but make people feel depressed and suffocated after looking at them for a long time, because they seem to be looking at a dead person, which makes me lose my mind all of a sudden!
