Chapter 183: Cunning

Xu Lang faced the wind and rain, turned his head and glanced at Nameless, and the two nodded to each other.

Rong Chuan and the others couldn't help but feel nervous when they saw the eyes of the two of them here.

Xu Lang's name has spread in the newspaper, this is a cold, ruthless, ruthless character, who treats human life like a mustard, and is especially accustomed to calculating others.

Rong Chuan thought like this, no matter what, he couldn't become an enemy with Xu Lang!

Xu Lang waved his hand, looked at the crowd and said, "We are divided into two groups, Rong Chuan, the four of you will search in various hotel rooms, and I will go outside with Nameless to search and find the proprietress, no need to talk nonsense, just catch it, and then notify us." ”

Rong Chuan nodded neatly, he already knew that now things had begun to revolve around the boss's abnormality.

Thinking about the information of the boss lady is extremely important for the next action.

Although he has a good heart, he is not so bad that he can't tell the difference, and now the task is the most important.

Xu Lang and Nameless walked away from Rong Chuan and the others silently, and went straight to the wooden house outside the house.

Obviously, if the proprietress is the one who disguises herself as an evil spirit, then she obviously has a secret base.

This location will most likely not be set up in an inn.

That wooden house warehouse, maybe there's a hole in it!

Not long after, Xu Lang and Nameless came to the main entrance of the hotel, listening to the cold wind whistling outside, and the rain slapped on the faces of the two of them.

As soon as they went out, their clothes were completely soaked, cold and icy, but the two of them did not pause.

Xu Lang took the flashlight and went straight to the warehouse with Nameless.

The door to the warehouse, apparently in disrepair, had begun to shake back and forth in the storm, and it looked like it was going to blow down at some point.

Inside, there seemed to be a dim yellow oil lamp, and a very weak light shone out from within.

Xu Lang took off his glasses, shook off the rain, and then pulled the wooden door open.

With little effort, the wooden door was completely detached from the wooden frame with a single click.

Xu Lang took the flashlight and entered the warehouse with Nameless.

The space in the warehouse is not very large, about 30 square meters, and the bricks and tiles above are crackling, and they are being knocked by the rain, which can no longer prevent the rainwater from entering.

Thankfully, the ground is dirty, and the rain has turned the entire land into mud.

And in the corner, an oil lamp fluttering in the wind has reached the end of the strong crossbow at this time, and it is dying, as if it will be extinguished at any time.

Xu Lang looked around, there were large patches of straw on the ground, I don't know what it was for, and the other places were already unobstructed, empty walls.

But Xu Lang was bored when he looked at it.

Because when I saw this, I remembered the scarecrow in the bag.

Seeing the straw again, Xu Lang didn't think it was a coincidence, why did a hotel owner pile up so many straws in the warehouse, this is obviously inexplicable.

Xu Lang and Nameless looked at each other, then picked up the fork of the farm tool beside him and began to separate the straw pile.

If there is any anomaly in this warehouse, it can only be underground covered by straw!

Xu Lang forked a large amount of straw behind him while carefully observing the surrounding situation.

Torrential rain, cold winds, late nights, warehouses, this situation has brought the horror atmosphere to the extreme, and it is clear that this is the favorite occasion of the evil spirits.

Although there are many mysteries now, and Xu Lang can almost determine that the boss lady is the initiator of all this, he still doesn't dare to take it lightly.

After all, what missions do best is destroy your self-confidence.

A large amount of straw became extremely heavy because it was soaked by the rain, and it took Xu Lang and Wuming almost twenty minutes to empty all the straw in place.

Xu Lang hurriedly turned on the flashlight and stepped forward to check.

But on the ground, there was nothing but yellow-black dirt, no secret passages, and nothing hidden.

Nameless frowned: "Isn't it here?" ”

Xu Lang lowered his head and pondered, did not speak for a long time, then took out his mobile phone and dialed Rong Chuan's number.

He asked straight to the point, "What's the situation over there?" ”

Rong Chuan's voice was a little low: "I have searched all the corners of the inn, there is no trace of the proprietress and no place to hide, as if she has disappeared from us!" ”

Xu Lang nodded: "You come to the warehouse to meet us." ”

After hanging up the phone, Xu Lang once again carefully looked at the layout of the warehouse, and said slowly: "We seem to have done something wrong." ”

Hearing this, Nameless raised his eyebrows, waiting for his follow-up.

Xu Lang was in the warehouse, pacing and said, "Boss, she doesn't look like she is thirty years old, with such a woman, she will definitely not put the secret room behind the straw, because with her personal ability, it is too difficult to get in and out."

What we have just done is in vain. ”

Nameless followed Xu Lang and walked around the warehouse: "Could it be that she is through some kind of mechanism?" ”

Xu Lang nodded: "It should be like this." ”

And just when Xu Lang was at a loss, the figure of Rong Chuan and the others walking towards them quickly in the wind and rain suddenly made a conjecture pop up in Xu Lang's mind.

He recalled the problem of footsteps!

The proprietress was watched back to the room, and soon after, there was the frolicking sound of the variety show, and the so-called "evil spirit" came, but it came up from outside the stairs.

In the end, the "evil spirit" disappeared at the door of Rong Chuan and the others' rooms, and the nameless clearly told Xu Lang that there was no sound of footsteps.

Thinking of the string of footprints with water, Xu Lang looked around the warehouse.

Maybe so......

Xu Lang patted Nameless on the shoulder: "We thought wrong, at first you and I were attracted by the lights of the warehouse, thinking that this was the entrance to the boss's secret room, but in fact, this is the exit!" ”

He pointed sharply at the oil lamp in the corner of the wall, and the flame had already been extinguished at this time, but Xu Lang and the others, who had been immersed in thinking, did not notice it at all.

"This oil lamp, obviously, can't be on all the time, and with the current weather, it's lucky enough to last five minutes!

There's a good chance that the proprietress came to the warehouse and lit this lamp after loading the evil spirit, luring us to the exit of the secret room, and she has destroyed everything and hid it in the entrance! ”

After listening to this, Nameless frowned: "So where is the entrance?" ”

Xu Lang pointed to the room in the far corner of the upstairs, "It's in the hostess's room!" ”

Nameless said slowly: "So, she has worked hard to divert us from the mountain, what is she hiding in this short period of time?" ”

Xu Lang had a gloomy face, obviously being calculated by such a woman, and he was very unhappy.

"Then we'll have to ask her properly."

At this time, the four of Rong Chuan finally arrived, panting heavily, touching the rain on their faces, Rong Chuan asked, "What did you find?" ”

Xu Lang glanced at him, "Let's go to the hostess's room!" ”

After saying this, he didn't wait for a few of them to react, and left quickly.

Rong Chuan and John glanced at each other, not knowing what medicine Xu Lang was selling in this gourd, Rong Chuan waved his hand: "Then let's go back." ”

After a while, Xu Lang and the other executors came to the hostess's room.

In the room, at this time, Xu Lang stood at the door and could hear laughter coming from inside, as well as bursts of dog barking.

There has been a change from the previous voice, and apparently the hostess has returned!

Xu Lang pushed the door open, and on the chair in the room, the proprietress was holding her thighs at this time, squatting on the chair and watching the variety show.

Seeing the forcible entry of Xu Lang and others, she looked very nervous.

"You... What do you do? ”

Xu Lang saw her harmless appearance of humans and animals, and sneered: "I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, tell me, where were you half an hour ago?" ”

The proprietress got down from the chair, hugged the puppy and stepped back, as if she was panicked, looking at Xu Lang's eyes with some fear: "I've been in the room, I said that I wasn't allowed to go out after eleven o'clock, what's the matter with you?" ”

When Xu Lang saw her like this, he was angry, stepped forward and grabbed her wrist, and said with a gloomy expression: "Then where did the water stains under your chair come from?" ”

Xu Lang pointed to the water stains under the proprietress before he had time to wipe them clean, and forcibly asked.

The proprietress said hesitantly: "I went to the toilet before, what's wrong?" Do you want to report back to you as well? ”

"Oh? Can you explain why you can't go out after eleven o'clock! ”

The proprietress was grabbed by Xu Lang's wrist and broke free a few times, but she never dodged, her eyes rolled slightly, and then explained: "You don't believe it when you say it." ”

Xu Lang sneered: "You can try to say it, and I will try to believe you once." ”

The proprietress looked at Xu Lang with a submissive face, but her free right hand slowly climbed up to her waist.

"I ......"

While the proprietress spoke, she kicked Xu Lang's wrist, and Xu Lang fell backwards in response, only to feel a hot pain in his wrist.

And the proprietress did not pause at all, and at the moment when Xu Lang retreated, her right hand took out a shiny silver needle from her waist and threw it at Xu Lang's neck.

But just as Xu Lang was about to be stabbed, a pair of white hands suddenly burst out of the darkness behind him, and almost at a speed that could not be captured by the naked eye, accurately grasping the silver needle at his fingertips.

Nameless snorted coldly and threw the silver needle on the floor.

The proprietress turned cold, and was about to climb her hand to her waist, but her speed was far inferior to Nameless, and at the moment when she was about to make a move, Nameless slapped her shoulder.

The proprietress turned pale, the joint of her left arm was broken in response, and with just one palm, she knew that her arm had been dislocated.

Nameless slowly took out the golden knife from behind him, pressed it against her chin, and said slowly, "Now, can you tell the truth?" ”

Fine sweat had appeared on the proprietress forehead, her fair face was full of pain, she was clutching her dislocated arm, and her eyes were staring at Xu Lang who was walking towards her.

Slowly uttered eight words: "The dead are reborn and put on their backs!" ”
