The lights on the shore of the lake in the distance are dimly lit, and the "Seven" at Pier 7 is particularly conspicuous like a lighthouse in the night, and Mo Wuwen and Li Xiaomai swim in the direction of the lights.

Gradually, the figures on the pier were faintly visible, and even Li Xiao and the sharp shouts could be heard, "Look, someone is swimming towards us on the lake." Xiaomai, Master...

After all, the lake water in early autumn was already a little cold, and the wet Mo Wuwen came ashore and kept shivering, panting to everyone who came up and said, "We will go back to Shunzi immediately." ”

"What's going on, how did you come back from swimming? Unheard. He Tiankun guessed that he had encountered something bizarre at the end of those hours in the lake.

"I can't tell you for a while, Uncle Guo." Mo Wuwen remembered seeing Guo Jingmin and the captain jumping into the water together.

"I didn't see any of them, so you wonder if it would be them." He Tiankun pointed to the motorboat rushing towards the pier on the lake.

When the motorboat approached the dock, he could see that it was indeed the captain and Guo Jingmin, and he breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward.

"It's okay, it's okay, everyone's okay." Guo Jingmin was also pleasantly surprised to see Mo Wuwen and Li Xiaomai.

"Uncle Guo, aren't you diving......" Mo Wuwen thought about why they came back by boat again.

"We jumped into the water before the motorboat hit the yacht, and when we turned around, we saw that the lake was thick with fog. By the time the fog cleared, Nan Xianyue's yacht had long since disappeared, and only the flamed out steamboat floated on the lake. We got on the boat and looked on the lake for a long time, but we didn't see you, so we went back to the pier to have a look. ”

"Uncle Guo, if there is news from Nan Xianyue to inform Li Ronghao, we have an urgent matter to return to Shunzi." Mo Wuwen rushed to the Lotto Hotel to investigate the truth.

"Good. I'll book a plane ticket for you after tomorrow, does Miss Shangguan know? Guo Jingmin knew that there must be something urgent to go back in such a hurry, and it was inconvenient for him to ask again.

"I'll tell her why, thank you Uncle Guo."

As soon as he arrived at the hotel, Mo Wuwen called Uncle Liu, "Uncle Liu, I am Wuwen." Someone wants to use a green jade pendant to open the dragon kiln, please pay close attention to the movement of Dongming Mountain. ”

"Who? What a jade pendant. ”

"I don't know the identity of the other party yet, let's talk about it when we meet."

"Where are you?"

"We're not in Shunz, but we'll be here soon." Mo Wuwen hung up the phone and asked everyone to rest early.

The next evening, Mo Wuwen and they appeared at the Lotto Hotel near the Peace Hospital in Linjiang City. Li Xiaomai put on makeup for Mo Wuwen according to Qiu Shaohua in his impression.

Mo Wuwen is gifted in language, and he actually learned to speak Mandarin with a northwest accent at such a time in the northwest, although he can't deceive the locals in the northwest, but he can fool outsiders.

Lotto Hotel is located near Heping Hospital, and most of the guests are going to the hospital or the patient's family. When Mo Wuwen walked into the hostel, he smelled a faint smell of disinfectant water, and the front desk was empty except for the waiter.

Seeing Mo Wuwen, who was dressed as Qiu Shaohua, the front desk attendant's face quickly turned pale and bloodless, his hands began to tremble, and he asked with a slight trembling, "Mr. Sheng, you, do you live in accommodation?" ”

"I'm looking for someone, someone saw him here and disappeared." Mo Wuwen tried his best to pretend to talk to the front desk attendant with a northwest accent.

"Who?" The front desk clerk still stubbornly held on and pretended not to know anything.

"Qiu Shaohua, a northwestern person who came to Linjiang City to buy shiitake mushrooms." Mo Wuwen deliberately said Qiu Shaohua's name to see how the front desk attendant reacted.

"No, no, no, I've never met this person at all." The front desk clerk hurriedly denied it.

"But someone saw him enter the inn."

"No, sir, he really hasn't stayed here." The front desk attendant crackled on the computer, and after a while, he said, "I have checked, there was no Qiu Shaohua who stayed here last month."

"Obviously didn't say that Qiu Shaohua disappeared here last month, but the waiter said that it was last month, didn't she confess herself." Mo Wuwen thought to himself that He Shaohua should not be lying.

Since it was found out that He Shaohua was killed here, Mo Wuwen decided to leave the hostel and come back after meeting you all.

Jingle bell, phone ring. The waiter picked up the phone and said, "Um, um, okay, okay, I understand..."

The waiter hung up the phone and shouted "Mr. Wait, someone was looking for He Shaohua just now." ”

"Who could it be?" Mo Wuwen stopped walking towards the door of the hostel, but when the waiter was not paying attention, he called He Tiankun according to the original agreement, and Li Xiaomai, who was also easy to look, hurriedly broke into the hostel when he heard the phone ringing.

"I'm sorry, sir, but the hotel is full." The waiter was anxious to send Li Xiao away.

"Oh, then I won't bother you, goodbye." Li Xiaomai took the opportunity to prepare to walk out of the hostel.

"Sir, the people will be there soon, you can wait."

Mo Wuwu didn't listen to the persuasion and walked straight forward, and suddenly the lights of the hotel went out, and the room was pitch black, and the floor began to shake, almost knocking them down.

Mo Wuwen hurriedly took out his mobile phone and prepared to call He Tiankun, but found that the network was disconnected and he couldn't get through the phone.

At that moment, the room suddenly shook up and down, and the sound of a thud sounded as if the floor had hit something.

Gradually adjusting to the darkness, he found that not only the waiter was quietly disappearing, but everything in the hall, including the front desk, counter, and sofa, evaporated like air in an instant.

The empty hall was filled with only Mo Wuwen and Li Xiaomai, and the passages leading to the guest rooms had all been replaced by white walls, except for the door of the inn, which remained tightly closed, as if it were the only exit.

"Let's go, let's go out first." Mo Wuwen pulled the door hard, but the handle seemed to be welded, and no matter how hard he twisted it, it didn't move.

"Master, I'll come." Unlocking is just a piece of cake for Li Xiaomai, the handle can't be twisted, so you can only open the door from the keyhole, Li Xiaomai took out the wire from the bag and inserted it into the keyhole and tinkered, just listening to the sound of the gate being opened.

"Awesome!" Mo Wuwen couldn't help but admire Li Xiaomai, unscrewed the handle to open the door of the hostel, but what appeared in front of them was a steel door made of steel plates.

Mo Wuwen knocked the thick steel door, hoping that He Tiankun, who was outside the house, could hear their cries for help. But I only heard the sound of knocking, and I couldn't hear any movement outside the house.

"We underestimate our opponents." Mo Wuwen's original intention was to borrow Qiu Shaohua's similar appearance after Yi Rong, on the one hand, to test whether what Qiu Shaohua said was true or false, and on the other hand, if what Qiu Shaohua said was true, it was just to lure the innkeeper out, and then grab him and ask about the whereabouts of Qingyu Pendant. Knowing that the other party was an old fox, instead of seeing people, they confined others in the hostel.

"Master, this is a hostel, how can they keep the door locked, we just need to wait until dawn." Li Xiaomai thought that He Tiankun and they were still at the door, and he would call the police if he saw that they didn't come out for a long time.

Suddenly, two orange-red streaks appeared on the ceiling, and a wave of heat hit from above.

", this looks like an oven." Li Xiaomai looked at the ceiling and wiped the sweat from his head, the temperature was getting higher and higher, and if they couldn't find the exit, they would be scorched.

"There must be a mechanism on the floor, otherwise those couch counters and people wouldn't have disappeared all at once." Mo Wuwen stomped the floor everywhere with his feet.

"No, this room is much smaller than the hall." With a burst of light from the ceiling, he found that it was only half the size of the hall at most.

The orange-red lamp was constantly sending heat, and they were already feeling dry in their mouths. Mo Wuwen was in a hurry, took out the demon refining pot and threw it desperately at the ceiling. The sound of banging the ceiling vibrated violently, and it was actually extinguished by the demon refining pot, and the demon refining pot smashed to the ground again.

The lights went out, the heat was sucked away by the demon refining pot, and the temperature in the room was cool and comfortable, and they finally breathed a sigh of relief, but after the lights went out, the room returned to darkness. Mo Wuwen took out the celadon piece and carefully observed the wall with its weak green glow.

"Who are you, and how come you haven't been scorched?" A faint voice floated towards the corner of the wall, and Mo Wuwen moved the celadon to the corner to see who was speaking.

A charred-black shadow appeared in front of Mo Wuwen's eyes with a strong smell of burning, oh my God, is it black! Mo Wuwen couldn't help but take a step back and shouted, "Who are you!" ”

"Master, who are you talking to? How I didn't see anything. Li Xiaomai saw Mo Wuwen muttering something in the corner in the dark through the green mang.

"I am a soul scorched by them!"

"In this room?" Mo Wuwen was secretly shocked in his heart.

"Right here, it's the oven."

"What!" Mo Wuwen almost jumped up when he listened, no wonder the heat wave was rolling just now, but fortunately, the demon refining pot smashed the lamp to let the heat dissipate.

"It was these brutes who robbed me of the money for my treatment and locked me in the oven to roast me alive!" The blackened soul said angrily.

"Master, what do you say?" Li Xiaomai felt inexplicably unheard and surprised to himself, and groped towards Mo Wuwen in the dark.

"It's a scorched soul." Mo Wuwen said softly.

Li Xiaomai walked in front of Mo Wuwen, and under the green mang, he saw a charred shadow and shouted, "It's not always dark!" ”

"How can there be darkness, there is no revenge, I don't want to go to the underworld!" The charred soul shook its head desperately.

"There's nothing black and it's not usual, he thinks you're black and it's not usual." Mo Wuwen explained.

"Why can you see me and talk to me?" The soul also finds it strange, ordinary people can't see the soul and can't hear the soul speak.

"Because my master is a heavenly master, no matter what the hell or weird, I can't escape his discernment."

"And how can you see me?" The soul asked Li Xiaomai with a puzzled look.

"This, this, I can't say this clearly..."Li Xiaomai can be asked by the soul at this moment, he is not a heavenly master, how can he also see the soul. Could it be that he has been following the master for a long time and has become a little bit of Taoism?

"How can we get out of the oven?" Mo Wuwen asked the soul, thinking that if the people of the inn repaired the lamp again, I don't know if the next demon refining pot can smash the lamp again, and if I continue to be trapped here, I will not be suffocated to death by heat.
