Volume 1 The Nose Torturer Chapter 75 Deep Mountain Inn (I)
"Squeak-squeak-squeak-"
I saw that a wooden door that was about to collapse was slowly opened, and there was a rusty sound.
"Ahem...... This is a broken place that is not close to the village in front of the village and there is no store in the back. β
More than a dozen people walked in from the outside, all young people in their twenties, and the woman at the head was slightly older, looking at the wooden door with cobwebs and dust, and scolded.
"Sister Zhao, this inn looks like a deserted ......"
A young man in the group stepped forward and whispered to the woman.
This group is a colleague of "Brother Bai", and the leader of "Sister Zhao" is his current girlfriend and the boss of the company. Brother Bai usually boasts that he is well-informed, and most of this kind of team building tourism disdain to walk with the team, but basically maintain a distance of one or two kilometers, and he arrived in the town two nights before he stayed in the second half of the night and did not see Brother Bai coming.
But I didn't see anyone until the afternoon of the next day, so I couldn't help but panic, fortunately, the town is not big, and more than ten people have been scattered for two days, and I have searched all over it, but how can there be half a cent of news from Brother Bai? During this period, Sister Zhao went to the police station to register the disappearance, and the police had to wait for the news. The most annoying thing is that the mobile phone signal in this area is intermittent, and Bai Ge's mobile phone is not in the service area and cannot be contacted.
The only way to the town was the one from which they came, and they searched for it all the way, but they found nothing until they came back to the stream.
"Gangna police say that there will be missing people from time to time in this generation......"
"We're going to have to keep up, I felt a chill in my back the other day."
"Brother Bai may have gone to play by himself, let's go so hard to find a head."
"What are you muttering?!"
Sister Zhao said sharply: "This team has to be responsible for having an accident when someone comes out to play, if he really has three strengths and two weaknesses, you ...... It's all deducted from your year-end bonus! β
Or the last sentence worked, everyone was stunned at first, and then hurriedly scattered out and kept shouting Brother Bai's name, and after a while, someone found a path up the mountain, different from other wild trails, this road is obviously much wider, and the traces of trampling are extremely obvious, which is obviously caused by people often passing by.
"It's weird."
Someone in the team pointed to the footprints on the ground and muttered. "Why are they all pits?"
Everyone took a closer look, and sure enough, the normal footprints should be a left and a right symmetrical march, how is this the same as the traces of a nail rake, is it difficult to smash a hook? But looking at the traces, it is obvious that there have been countless times in the past, and the people who often pass by are so tacitly understanding?
"Let's go...... The sun is about to set, and it is even more difficult to find clues when it gets dark. β
Xiaoxu, who had been chatting ambiguously with Brother Bai in the mountains and forests before, urged: "Brother Bai is usually good to everyone, we have to step up." β
Xiaoxu has just been in the company for less than two months, and the southern girl who has just graduated is well-behaved and smart.
Besides, Brother Bai's usual habit of spending time drinking and drinking is not clear to his girlfriend Sister Zhao, there is nothing unclear in the company, Xiaoxu was secretly courteous as soon as he arrived in the company, how could a little girl who had just entered the society be able to withstand this kind of emotional and material temptation, and after a long time, the love sinus would bloom. This is also the hottest lace news circulating at the company's employee level.
Although he said this, Brother Bai usually said to his colleagues as Xiaoxu said, he often took everyone to eat and drink, and he never cared about anything because of trivial things, and he was very righteous. Modern urban life is like this, pretending to be confused, now someone stands up and clicks, and there is an endless stream of responders immediately, citing countless Bai Ge's righteous deeds, and it is estimated that he has never praised his father and mother so much.
Sister Zhao saw that everyone was in good spirits, and although it was dark, the speed of travel was much faster.
"Brother BaiβBrother Baiβ"
At night, the mountains were much quieter, and shouts could be heard a mile away, but there was no response.
"Fuck, it's been hours, and I haven't even seen a passerby."
"Let's go back, he hasn't heard from him for two or three days, and he can't hide from what should happen...... It's too late in the mountains and it's not safe. β
Sister Zhao's sense of dominance disappeared, and at this time, she only felt that she was a weak woman who had lost her relatives.
"Sister Zhao - Sister Zhao ββ!"
A few people who were scouting the way in front ran over shouting: "Front-front-"
"What's wrong with the front, you said!" Sister Zhao hurriedly urged.
"There's a yard ahead!"
The man pointed to the front and said, "It looks like an inn!" β
"It's too late to go back, let's just stay here, and it's convenient to find Brother Bai directly tomorrow."
Xiaoxu whispered.
Sister Zhao was very moved by the side, unlike others, this Xiaoxu was indeed worried about Brother Bai from the bottom of her heart, and couldn't help but take Xiaoxu's arm and echoed: "Xiaoxu is right, everyone will stay for one night." β
When everyone saw the boss come over, although they were not happy, they thought that they would definitely not be able to suffer a loss if they performed in front of the boss, so they simply gritted their teeth and wanted to grab the front position.
The inn is a two-story small wooden building built on the side of the road in a wide place by the mountain, the fence of the courtyard is quite exquisite, and the inn is encircled on one side in the form of gossip, but there are many weeds in the courtyard, and the boss is too careless, but the Xiangxi region is much slower than the urban rhythm, and no one is surprised.
"Boss ββ?"
"Squeak-squeak-squeak-"
Sister Zhao called in the courtyard, and when she saw that no one responded for a long time, she directly pushed open the gate.
"Ahem...... This is a broken place that is not close to the village in front of the village and there is no store in the back. β
Sister Zhao looked at the wooden door with cobwebs and dust, and scolded in her mouth.
"Sister Zhao, this inn is like a ...... that has been abandoned for a long time"
One of the young men in the group stepped forward and said.
After entering the door, there is a wide hall, on both sides there are seven or eight rooms only covered by curtains, the hall is very dark, there is no light, there is really no normal business.
"Then let's go back to town......"
Sister Zhao saw that there was no one to live here, so she had to tell everyone, but she swallowed back as soon as she was halfway through.
The group clearly heard the sound of "da-da" from upstairs, which moved slowly until it stopped at the top of the stairs.
Everyone held their breath and stared at the dark staircase......
"Da-da-"
A faint light floated down the staircase, and it was a jumping candle that fluttered in the air and slowly fell, and finally stopped in front of everyone.
Behind the firelight was a dry, thin, pale face with lifeless eyes!
