"Okay." I nodded.

Since it has been decided, Canghai and I will act separately, he will go up to the third floor, and I will go downstairs. I walked down the floor and two elderly people from the hotel were drinking tea and watching TV at the counter.

My heart moved, and I suddenly remembered one thing, the Dao Technique. Those who perform the Dao must not be too far away. Except for some of the Dao arts, the person who performed the Dao art may live in the hotel.

It's also a good idea to ask the two elderly people at the hotel about the number of residents. I walked to the counter, and the two old men turned around and looked at me with a smile, and the old woman asked, "Young man, is there anything wrong?" ”

In the same way, I smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just that there is always some noise on the top of the room where I live, and there is no one when I go up." So, come down and ask me if there's anyone living in my room. ”

When the old couple heard this, their eyebrows were apologetic, and the old woman asked, "Young man, what room do you live in?" ”

“205。” I replied with a smile.

Hearing this, the old couple was even more puzzled and said, "There is an empty room above your room!" The old man looked at me even more unkindly, suspecting that I was deliberately finding fault.

I feigned surprise and said, "No one? It can't be a rat or something? ”

The old woman frowned, the wrinkles on her face appeared more, and she spoke: "Mother-in-law cleans carefully every day. "Hearing that his wife was dissatisfied, the old man looked at me even more unkindly.

No, I secretly said in my heart, I need to change the topic, otherwise I will be scolded. I changed my smile and said to the old couple, "I may have misheard, mother-in-law, how is the business?" ”

Hearing my question, the two old men instantly became vigilant, and I saw that the old man's hand had touched the phone. I'm still a little weird, but I get it.

The most common thing that people encounter in business is to rob their homes. I asked the old man how the business was going, how he thought about it, and how he wanted to talk about the rhythm of money.

I smiled bitterly when I figured it out, thinking about how to get through. It just so happened that the TV in the counter was playing a plot about a man cheating. The woman inside cried pear blossoms with rain, so it was not miserable.

This plot instantly inspired me and I thought about how to do it. My face instantly became sad, and then I cried to the two old men: "Mother-in-law, I'm here to find my father, he ......" I choked up and continued: "I'm cheating, I want to leave my seriously ill grandmother." ”

Life in the world depends on acting skills, and in this situation, I cooperated to leave two tears. It makes the plot seem more realistic, and at the same time, I'm glad that I'm not old.

I faked crying while paying attention to the facial expressions and movements of the two old men. Sure enough, as I expected, the vigilance of the two old men was lowered a lot. Although the old man's hand has not been lowered from the phone.

But while the iron was hot, I continued to cry: "Today my brother and I followed him, and when we saw him and which junior came in here, my brother and I came in. ”

When the old woman heard this, she blurted out, "But young man, there are only seven people who come to stay today and there are no women." ”

I got it, I was secretly happy in my heart, and I still responded sadly on my face: "That's lost, my mother-in-law has caused you trouble." ”

When I turned around and was about to leave, the old woman stopped me and asked, "What is your father's name, young man?" ”

"Lotu." I made up a name casually, and naturally it was impossible to use my real name.

"Lotu." The old woman muttered the fake name and flipped through the check-in form of the hotel. I watched with a sad face, and I knew I couldn't find it. I've made up all the names, but it would be embarrassing if there really was a guy named Lotu who lived here.

But I guess my luck wasn't so bad yet. After a while, the old woman read the registration form and shook her head at me.

"Thank you, mother-in-law." I said sadly, and went straight upstairs. Acting is tiring, especially crying, and more importantly, I need to cry for the story I made up. This is a question of whether the acting skills are superb or not.

I went back to the second floor and entered the room, and I didn't check if there were any candle ghosts on the first floor. But getting additional information is also a bonus.

The sea has returned, and it is a pleasure to play in front of the computer. Hearing that I was coming back, he turned around and said, "Luo Luo is back, I just checked the third floor, and there are traces of candle ghosts on it." ”

I nodded and responded, "I didn't check the first floor, but I got a useful piece of information." ”

This sentence aroused Canghai's curiosity, and he asked, "What information?" ”

"There are seven people living in this inn, counting the two of us." I told Canghai the information that the old woman had told me.

"In other words, the person who manipulated the candle ghost could be among the five people." I point out my thoughts.

Hearing this, Canghai nodded slowly, and a gleam flashed in his eyes and said: "It's just right, we used an enchantment to cover the entire hotel, and then cleaned up the candle ghost, he will definitely be counterattacked, and he can't escape if there is an enchantment." ”

After thinking about it, there was no flaw in this method, so I nodded and agreed. Canghai took out a few small flags from his black schoolbag and handed them to me, and I took them out and looked at them.

A palm-sized flag, made of thin wooden sticks and paper with runes drawn on it. I don't understand what the rune is for, after all, I don't want to be proficient in this method.

I shook the small flag in my hand at Canghai and asked suspiciously, "What is this for?" ”

Cang Haiyou handed me three flags and said: "Array flags, there are nine in total, one main flag and eight secondary flags, and it is convenient and fast to use it to create an enchantment." ”

Given the explanation, I nodded and was amazed at how quickly this little flag could create an enchantment. Sure enough, Canghai has learned a lot of good things from his grandfather over the years.

"Four flags, one at the door, two at the end of the first floor, and the fourth at the entrance on the second floor." Canghai commanded me solemnly, and I nodded to show that I understood.

Then, I opened the door with the flag and went out, and quietly walked to the staircase. Looking at the counter at the door, the old couple was no longer there, and it seemed that they had slept.

I breathed a sigh of relief if the old couple were still there. I'm going to make up the show again, and that's a chore.

Walked to the door, put a flag, and quietly walked to the first floor and placed a flag at each end. Go back to the staircase on the second floor and place a flag.

As soon as the flag at the staircase was placed, the flag gradually faded and disappeared. I couldn't help but reach out and touch it, and I touched the small flag, I think it should be the sea that has finished placing another flag.

Thinking of this, I ran back to Canghai's room on the second floor, and sure enough, Canghai had returned. He was sitting cross-legged in the center of the room, the last flag placed in front of the sea.
