Chapter 70: The Talking Fish (1)
In the dark night, I couldn't see my fingers, and I couldn't see where the exit of the store was.
The sound of tapping and tapping footsteps came from far and near from the direction of the box they came out of.
"Turn on your phone's flashlight." Mo Wuwen reacted very quickly, and took out his mobile phone and pressed the flashlight button with everyone, but what made people panic was that the mobile phone suddenly went black at the same time and could no longer turn on.
"Lighters!"
He Tiankun just lit the lighter with a slight tremble, and threw away the lighter with a white face, hiding behind the yellowish flames and smiling strangely at him.
There was a pop, the lights came on again, the door opened slightly, and the hall was empty, except for the fish in the tank, which were scurrying about like a lost soul, and their dull eyes occasionally glanced at them and kept swimming, as if they were greatly frightened.
"Run." Strange voices sounded faintly from some corner of the room, but they couldn't see people, and the hall was so big that there was nowhere to hide.
"Run."
"The sound is coming from the fish tank!" Li Xiaomai's scream focused everyone's eyes on the fish tank, and the sound was indeed coming from the fish tank, so it was a little muddy.
"You're done." The proprietress who came out of nowhere said an understatement, but it was like the most terrifying needle piercing them, because from the room behind the counter, the sound of Huo Huo sharpening knives began to be heard.
Everyone fled to the door in a hurry, and the door closed by itself, and Lee Young-ho kicked the door hard and shook, and a piece of white patent leather fell from the ceiling, staring at them with resentment.
"Hey, you haven't paid yet." From the room behind the counter ran the shopkeeper holding a pig-killing knife, the blade glowing coldly in the light.
"There is no one who does not pay for food, but you can also cut off your tongues to pay off." The proprietress still said softly.
"Money, for you and for you." He Tiankun hurriedly took out the money from his bag and handed it over.
"Who are you fooling with the Stygian coin?"
"Ahh
"In exchange for your tongues, let's taste the tenderness of the tip of our tongues, ahem." The proprietress thumped her chest and said softly.
"Who are you..."He Tiankun is a frequent visitor here, and the unusually proprietress makes him feel that he is not the usual proprietress of the house.
"It's me, Lao He, why don't you recognize me." The proprietress stroked the long hair that fell on her plaster gray face.
"What do you want to do!" He Tiankun turned around and fled, because he saw the smile on the corner of her mouth, but her teeth were stained with blood.
"I didn't want to do anything, I just wanted you to die and be ghosts together." The proprietress cracked her mouth and smiled, and floated away from the counter.
"To be ghosts together, that means they are ghosts." Li Xiaomai thought about it, this is not right, and shouted: "Ghost! ”
Everyone flocked to the gate again, but the doorknob could not be moved by half a millimeter as if it were welded.
"The window is a raw door...", a very weak voice came from the fish tank.
The shopkeeper's pig-killing knife immediately smashed into the fish tank, and the water flowed to the ground, and the talking fish lay on the ground without even the strength to struggle, and did not move.
Lee Young-ho picked up the chair and slammed it against the window with a loud noise, but the window pane was intact, and the shopkeeper with a knife was approaching step by step.
"Master, sacrifice celadon!" Li Xiaomai tore off the clothes of the last unknown.
The sound of the poof, the farmhouse returned to the darkness, "Lighter, lighter." When Mo Wuwen reached out for the celadon piece, he only heard footsteps in the darkness and hurriedly left.
The faint light flickered, and gray shadows drifted around the room.
They held their breath, clutching their chairs in their hands, and could only throw shadows close to them, strangely enough that the shadows were just levitating in the air and ignoring them.
The celadon sacrifice exuded a faint blue light, and the direction of the window could be vaguely seen, Li Rongho and Li Xiaohe raised the table and smashed it, but the window glass still did not move.
There was a crackling crackle, hail outside the house, and a hail the size of a ping-pong ball smashed the glass windows and the door. There was a loud bang, the door was slammed open by the wind, and the rain poured into the storeroom.
They shoot out of the door like arrows from a string, and the pouring rain drenches through their shells, freeing them from their bondage.
Fortunately, the car was still at the door of the store, getting in the car, starting, and preparing to escape, but Li Xiaomai, who got into the car in a hurry, shouted, "Wait, Xiaohe hasn't gotten in the car yet." ”
But the headlights of the car shone past, and there was only a trace of Li Xiaohe in the torrential rain.
"I'll take a look." Li Xiaomai jumped out of the car and ran to the farmhouse, which was getting blurred in the heavy rain.
"Xiaomai, Xiaomai, help me...", Li Xiaohe's screams of fear came from the darkness.
A lightning bolt struck, and Li Xiaomai saw Li Xiao and his soaked trouser legs dragging the talking fish, staggering in the heavy rain. Li Xiaomai grabbed his hand and pulled it in the direction of the car, but he felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.
Boom and thunder sounded, and the fish loosening mouth holding Li Xiaomai's trouser legs was washed away by the rain.
Without thinking too much, they desperately ran into the car, Li Xiaohe panted and said, "When I ran out of the gate, the fish on the ground shouted for help and jumped up and bit the trouser leg, but the fish was so heavy that I couldn't drag it." ”
But no one dared to turn back, and the car stayed in the heavy rain until it saw the lights of the city.
"Who are the farmhouse owners and hostesses?" Mo Wuwen relieved himself and asked He Tiankun.
"All I know is that they are outsiders, and I often go there to eat, and it has always been normal, except that their stewed fish is indescribably delicious." He Tiankun was also puzzled, and he didn't know how to say it.
"Are they demons!" Li Xiaohe jumped up and almost hit the roof of the carriage.
"Impossible, there will be no more demons after the new day." He Tiankun said categorically.
"Could that be a ghost..."Li Xiaohe's voice was obviously much weaker.
"Could it be that the demon has found a way to return to the world?" The murmuring of the end made He Tianchong's heart pound rapidly.
"Impossible, that farmhouse has been open for ten years, how can it be a demon?" He Tiankun shook his head desperately.
"You forgot the living dead?" The last ignorant intuition is what they have to do with demons.
"You mean the shopkeeper and his wife are dead?" He Tiankun was suddenly frightened and couldn't answer.
"I'd like to see it again." Mo Wuwen calmed down, and said to everyone after thinking about it.
"I want to go back to Xichuan." Li Rongfu was the first to oppose Mo Wuwen's proposal, and he didn't want to take any more risks.
"We..." Li Xiaomai didn't want to go, but he couldn't find a special reason to be embarrassed to refuse.
"I'll go with you." If there are still demons in the world, He Tiankun will always worry about when the demons will come to the door, whether there are demons or not, he wants to make sure.
Tomorrow's farmhouse, he must go.
