Chapter 169: The Strange Hotel
"Yes." Liu Baixue said: "I went to school, and then left, returned to the clinic, and saw that Brother Xiaodao hadn't left yet, and was packing his luggage, so I secretly followed Brother Xiaodao." ”
I was helpless, very angry, seeing Liu Baixue's cute appearance, I didn't have a temper at all.
I added two dishes to her and ordered a soup.
"Eat, eat, I'll send you back."
"I don't." Liu Bai pouted, "I don't want to go back, I said it all, I want to be with Brother Xiaodao." ”
"I'm not going back anyway, hehe......"
I'm really angry.
Xiao Qian suddenly spoke, "Master, let Liu Baixue stay, some things are already doomed, why force it?" ”
"You also approve of Snow White Staying?" I don't understand.
Xiaoqian said: "I know what you're worried about, you're worried that Liu Baixue won't go to school and won't receive enough education, I'm afraid that I'm in danger of following you, and I'm afraid that I'll delay Liu Baixue's best youth." ”
"Actually, after inheriting the Mao family's Taoism from Liu Baixue, she has shouldered the responsibility of revitalizing the Mao family, and she is already a member of the cultivation world."
"Now you ask her to go back, do math, go to physics class, she doesn't have the heart anymore."
"What she has to learn now is how to be a human being, how to cultivate, and how to become a powerful mage."
Of course I understand these truths, and I have understood them since I was a child.
It's just that I don't want Liu Baixue to really step into the cultivation world, because, once I step in, it is a road of no return, and there is no turning back.
But Liu Baixue has already made a choice.
I could tell it in her determined eyes.
Even if I send her back to study, she will still come back.
"Let's eat quickly, it'll be cold in a while." I smiled helplessly.
"Brother Xiaodao, did you agree?"
"Well, your sister's side, when the time comes, you can say it yourself."
"Don't worry, Brother Xiaodao, we can cut it first and then play it, and then tell my sister later."
I smiled wryly.
After dinner, I first took Liu Baixue to the neighborhood to buy a few sets of clothes and daily necessities, this mission is not so simple, you must prepare enough.
After that, we got on the bus to Liulong Mountain.
After more than five hours, we finally arrived at the foot of Nine Street Mountain.
Jiujie Hill is a famous attraction nearby, and below the mountain is a bustling small city.
At this moment, it is evening, the road is full of traffic, all kinds of shops around, crowded, most of them are tourists from other places.
Near the mountains, the climate in the north is relatively low, so I took my coat and put it on Liu Baixue.
Liu Baixue was very happy, pestering me to take her to play, she bought a lot of snacks, as well as hairpins and earrings for girls, etc., which are some small items on the roadside stalls.
On the way, I navigated the Shenlong Temple, but I couldn't find the location on the map.
I asked the stall owner about the Shenlong Temple.
But all the bosses unanimously replied that there are many Taoist temples on the mountain, and they are as dazzling as the shops and stalls here, and they have not heard of the Shenlong Temple.
Most people think that the Shenlong Temple is not famous, it may be a small Taoist temple, and some enthusiastic bosses even think that Liu Baixue and I are a couple and are seeking marriage, and they introduce us to several Taoist temples.
When I had dinner in the evening, I asked the owner of the restaurant, but I still didn't know where the Shenlong Temple was.
We're going to go up the mountain tomorrow to find it.
After eating, we were ready to find a place to stay.
There are no luxury hotels around, and most of the places to stay are in the mode of rural courtyards, and there are many small hotels with fashionable decoration, which are rich in local characteristics.
Liu Baixue and I came to a street full of hotels where we stayed.
I didn't have any requirements for accommodation, but I liked quiet, so I came to a small hotel at the end of the street with Liu Baixue.
As soon as I stepped into the hotel, I felt uncomfortable.
The hall is brightly lit, but it feels a little oppressive.
At the front desk is a woman in her forties, with a haggard face, holding a mobile phone to catch up on the drama.
Liu Baixue and I walked over, and the woman put down her phone.
The woman looked at us and asked, "Do you want to open one room, or two rooms?" ”
I was going to stay here, but after thinking about it, I said, "We need two single rooms, show me the room and the environment first." ”
The woman took the key and said, "Go to the third floor." ”
There was only one woman here, and no other waiters were in sight.
The woman took us to the third floor and showed us a room which was clean and tidy.
It's just that I'm very strange and said: "Sister, the environment is good, although the decoration is a little old, it is not outdated, why does it seem that there are not many guests?" ”
The woman sighed, "I'm honest, I'm the owner of the inn, and last month, a guest had an accident here, so ...... After the news of these things spread, it was spread that the guests who knew that they had died here would not come to this hotel. ”
"After the accident, it didn't take long for the employees here to resign, and I am now taking care of the hotel by bandits."
Has anyone died here?
I couldn't help but say, "Boss, since you have died, you still tell me about it?" Aren't you afraid that I won't live? ”
The woman said, "Even if I don't tell you, maybe people outside will say it, and if you live with me and know about these things from other people's mouths, you will definitely make trouble with me." ”
"It's too hard to do business these days."
Seeing the boss's difficulties, I didn't think much about it and was ready to stay.
Liu Baixue said with a smile: "Auntie, we are not afraid of death, open two rooms for us, and we live." ”
There were dead people in the hotel, and Liu Baixue and I were not afraid at all.
We went to the first floor to register our ID, paid the money, and took two keys to stay.
Liu Baixue lives next door to me.
The past two days have been tiring, and I am indeed very tired, so I rested early.
Shortly after I closed my eyes, I was woken up by the sound of an argument below.
The sound came from the window, I turned on the light and got up, opened the window, and saw a couple below arguing with the owner of the inn.
The more noisy, the fiercer.
I'm not a nosy person, but I can't rest because of the noise, and Liu Baixue began to complain.
I went downstairs and saw three men and two women at the entrance of the hotel, dressed in white and wearing filial piety, burning paper around a brazier.
A woman kneels on the ground, holding a portrait of a girl.
The girl in the portrait is fourteen or fifteen years old and still wearing a school uniform.
Two women are crying, and the man is saying good things all the way.
Just now, it was these people who quarreled with the boss, and now, the boss is sitting at the front desk with red eyes.
No wonder there is no business here, can there be a business by burning paper in front of the hotel like this?
I see, this girl is the girl who died in the hotel last month according to the boss!
I don't want to worry about this matter, so I can only discuss it with the boss and the family of the deceased.
Now, they don't quarrel with the boss, and when the paper is burned, they will definitely leave.
I was about to leave when a man called out to me.
"Young man, do you live here?"
