Chapter 31: The Lady I Like Is Not Human
"Is it so early for people in this town to close their doors? It looks so weird.,It's like a monster-infested plot in the script.。 ”
"Monsters are rampant at night, and every house closes its doors and windows......"
After speaking, Wu Wei smiled worriedly, a bit like he looked like he had told a cold joke.
"There are no ghosts in this town, there must be something going on."
Master Xingzhou led Wu to worry about worrying, found an inn casually, and knocked on the door of the inn.
Knock ~ knock ~ knock
"Who?" Someone inside asked.
"The little monk passed by here and wanted to come and rest for the night."
Then the inn door was pulled open a small slit, and one eye peered out from the inside. Seeing that there was indeed a young monk standing outside, he opened the door.
"Come on in."
After beckoning Master Xingzhou to enter, the man quickly closed the door again.
"Bear with me, it's not safe at night in the town these days, and the store closes early. What kind of room does Master want? The man bent down slightly, apologetic to the monk in front of him.
"A normal room is all it takes."
The man said "hey" and stepped forward to lead Master Xingzhou upstairs towards the room.
"How many days will this master stay?"
"Tonight," Master Xingzhou replied in a gentle tone.
"Then Master had better wait for the sun to rise tomorrow morning before leaving. A few days ago, there were several murders in the town, and I don't know what did it. ”
"I heard that it haunts a place where there is no daylight, and it is fine during the day, but no one dares to go out at night."
"No one has died these days, but I don't know if it's still there. It's best not to stay out at night after Master leaves," explained the person who led the way, and kindly reminded him.
"Thank you for the reminder," Master Xingzhou bowed to the man.
"When you arrive, does Master need hot water for a bath?" The man helped Xingzhou open the door and stepped aside to ask.
Xingzhou nodded: "I'm tired of the donor." ”
"Master is kind" The man smiled and turned to go downstairs.
After a while, a few buckets of hot water were brought to him, and Wu Youwei had already consciously let Master Xingzhou put it into the Buddha beads.
"Then Master, you have a good rest, if you need anything, you can go downstairs and call me, I'm right behind the counter."
Xingzhou nodded politely and closed the door after the man left.
Early the next morning, Wu was released.
Thinking of yesterday's man's words, Wu Youwu floated to Xingzhou's side and asked, "Are we going to help find out what is killing people?" ”
Xingzhou shook his head: "The little monk doesn't know martial arts, and he can't investigate cases." ”
Wu was stunned, and it took a while to understand what Master Xingzhou meant by not knowing martial arts.
"That thing only haunts places where there's no sunlight, isn't it a ghost?"
Xingzhou shook his head again: "No. ”
Wu Wei shrugged: "Okay." ”
In fact, she doesn't want to be nosy, and she doesn't like to be nosy. Well...... Everything that has nothing to do with her is called idleness.
After breakfast, the sun had already risen, and Wu was worried that he had no choice but to hide in the Buddha beads.
I don't know how long Master Xingzhou has been gone, as if he was stopped.
"You have her breath in you."
A cold voice rang out outside.
"Please also ask the donor to give way."
"There's her breath on it, you've seen her before? Or is she there for you? The owner of the voice said again.
"The little monk doesn't know who the donor is talking about."
"A girl who has died."
The man took out a portrait, unfolded it, and held it up in front of the boat.
Xingzhou was silent for a while, "Donor, there are some things that cannot be forced. ”
"She's with you." The man was determined.
The monk in front of her has such a strong breath that it will take a long time to get along. Li Huaien's aura was a lot more gloomy.
"Give her back to me."
Xingzhou shook his head: "The wish-wishing girl is not a donor's object. ”
"Give it back to me."
I only heard the man's voice roar in a particularly gloomy voice. Then there was a crackle outside, as if there was a fight.
Wu Youwu looked confused, he didn't know how to mention his name, could it be that the man was looking for himself? But I don't know that kind of person. The man's voice sounded gloomy and terrifying, how far away he had always been from that kind of person, and he didn't even give him a chance to speak, how could he still know him.
After a long, long time, Wu Wuwu was not released, Xingzhou and the man had moved to a cave, a place where the sun could not shine.
After Wu came out, the man came over, "As you wish~" The voice was hurried, aggrieved and gentle.
Wu was stunned for a while: "Li Huaien? ”
It's not that she can't recognize Li Huaien, but the man in front of him, he, his eyes are dull, his pupils are gray, and there is a scar across his forehead, but it may have been left a long time ago, and now there is only a white mark left.
The previously masculine and handsome face has become feminine, and the face is a few degrees whiter, and the whole person looks like an angel who has fallen into darkness.
"You, how did you become like this?" Wu said worriedly.
Li Huaien covered his face with his hands, "Isn't it ugly?" ”
Wu shook his head worriedly, looked into his eyes, and thought that he might not be able to see, "No, it's not ugly." I mean your eyes. ”
"Well, so I can see what I want."
Li Huaien didn't have any thoughts that he didn't want to say, he felt that of course he had to say what he did for the other party and let the other party know, what was obscurity? will only not be reassured by the other party.
Then, he continued: "I ran out of that thing at that time, and it took a long time to find another Taoist priest. When I got back, I realized that you had been gone for so long. ”
"I later went to the Taoist priest and begged him to help me open my eyes to heaven. This is the price of ordinary people to open their eyes. ”
As he spoke, he touched his eyes, "But I think it's worth it." ”
Wu was worried and didn't know what to say for a while, he was not moved, he only felt guilty and terrible and a little angry. Angry at this sense of guilt that the other party has imposed on her.
"I, I ......"
The man stared at her as if he could see her. I opened my mouth several times, but I still didn't know what to say.
Master Xingzhou stood quietly aside, watching them reminisce about the past, and did not come to disturb them.
"If you wish, will you go back with me?" The man said softly, with a little imperceptible pleading.
Wu Youwu turned his head and looked at Xingzhou, "However, I still have to follow Master Xingzhou to do good......
Wu didn't want to go with him, she was now sure that the man liked her. She felt very guilty about him, but she didn't want to make up for him by "making a promise".
Hearing her words, the man's face suddenly became gloomy, but he saw that the woman standing in front of him returned to normal.
"Shall I accompany you in doing good deeds? I'll do anything. ”
It was really an embarrassing question, and he looked at Xingzhou who was still standing quietly on the side, "Master Xingzhou......"
Xingzhou smiled gently: "If you wish, the girl will decide for herself." ”
