Xie Chuyao and the others settled in the inn, but the business of this inn did not seem to be good, there was no business in the store, only the shopkeeper and Xiao Er sat there and waited for the business to come to the door.

As soon as he saw them come in, Xiao Er's eyes immediately lit up, and he hurriedly walked over to them and asked, "A few guest officers, do you want to stay in the hotel or eat?" "It's been a few days since there was business, and he must be happy to see someone come to the door!

It stands to reason that their inn is the most lively place in the town, and it should be a good business, and it used to be a good business, but since someone disappeared here inexplicably, fewer and fewer people dare to come to the door to stay, and now they don't even come to the house.

Shang Jingcheng glanced at Xiao Er, looked around again, frowned slightly, and beckoned the secret guard over and asked, "Why did you choose here?" "It looks like no one has lived here for a long time, and it looks like no one is taking care of it all around, and it's very messy.

The Dark Guard whispered, "The other two inns in this town are full, and there is no choice but to come and stay here." He didn't like this inn at first, but when he went to the other two inns and asked, he was told that there were no rooms, so he had to bring people to the inn again.

Shang Jingcheng frowned and didn't speak, this is a bit abnormal, the other two inns are full, but this inn has not a single guest, and the gap is really too big.

At this time, the shopkeeper hurriedly walked out of the counter and said with a smile: "A few guest officers, although the business of the small shop is not good, it is cheap and affordable, and the rooms in the small shop are all good, and the dishes cooked by the cook are also very delicious, guest officer, you might as well stay!" "If he doesn't come out of the horse, the business that was delivered to the door will slip away again.

Seeing this, Xie Chuyao pulled Shang Jingcheng's sleeve and said, "Why don't we stay here, it's just one night anyway, just make do." "Look at this boss and Xiao Er don't look like some bad people, just stay for one night, there is no need to be picky.

When Shang Jingcheng heard this, he said to the shopkeeper: "Bring us six guest rooms, and prepare some meals, let's eat first." With that, he led the people to sit down at the table next to him and waited.

The secret guard hurriedly took out the money bag from his arms, put a gold ingot in the shopkeeper's hand, this time the shopkeeper's happiness was broken, he hurriedly haknotted his waist and said: "Okay, good, the little one immediately went to tell the cook to stir-fry, you wait a while, ouch, great, finally take the next business!" He was so happy that he almost couldn't close his mouth, this was the first business in this month, could he not be excited?

Xiao Er is also very diligent in pouring tea and water for them, very attentive.

Six people sat at a table, and the other five guards sat at a table, and as soon as Ah Fu sat down, he began to be close to the shopkeeper's second set, and Hongqiang occasionally interjected a sentence or two, and it could be seen that their little two cooperated very tacitly.

Si Hao and Shang Jingcheng both took a sip of tea silently, but their ears listened carefully for a while, and when they saw that they were all saying innocuous things, they didn't listen carefully.

Xie Chuyao took a sip of tea, and then asked inadvertently: "I said junior brother, why is the business in your store so bad?" It's been so long since we've been in, but not a single guest has seen it. ”

The shopkeeper sighed and said: "Hey, don't hide it from a few guest officers, we have no business in this store for several days, you are still the first business in our store this month, and the shopkeeper in the morning also said that if it goes on like this, this store will be closed." "Originally, there were five juniors in the store, and the business was very hot before, but then the business was not good, and the boss fired the other four juniors in order to save wages, and he was worried about whether he would lose his job.

Xie Chuyao nodded slightly, and didn't ask any more, at this time, it was Luzhu who asked curiously: "Why, I see that your store is very well decorated, and it is quite large, and the hygiene situation is not too bad, why is there no one to come to eat?" ”

The shopkeeper glanced at the location of the counter with an embarrassed face, and saw that the shopkeeper was burying his head in the accounts, and there would be no situation on their side for a while, so he leaned over to them and said: "Don't hide a few, a few days ago, there were customers in our store who disappeared, and they disappeared for five consecutive nights, so it made people panic, and the missing people were not found when they went to the government, as if they never existed." At this, he couldn't help but shudder.

"Missing? No, it's so terrible, Miss, are we still living here? When Hongqiang heard this, her face turned white with fright, she was not very bold, and now she must be the first to be nervous when she hears this.

Now the shopkeeper can't wait to sew something on his mouth, what is he doing, this business that has finally come to the door can't be disturbed by him.

"Don't, don't, listen to me, it was all last month, and now there has been no disappearance of these people in our store, so you can rest assured that you will stay, there will be no more accidents, hehe......" He wanted to slap himself in the mouth.

Ah Fu shook Red Qiang's hand and motioned for her to calm down.

Xie Chuyao and Shang Jingcheng glanced at each other, and then asked, "How did these people disappear?" Is it in the middle of the night? Who are they? "Why did she have a bad premonition in her heart, and this time coincided too well with the time when Xiaofeng escaped.

Could this have something to do with him?

"The missing people are ordinary merchants, they are all in the town to do business, I didn't expect to stay one night and go out, they all disappeared in the middle of the night, I don't know how this person disappeared, just sleep up, in the morning to see that the person is not in the room, but the luggage is there, so we guess whether this person is missing, plus their family to find it, so it was reported to the official, this matter is also quite big, our store was also ordered to close for a few days, and then the missing person was not found, Our shopkeeper pleaded with the magistrate, and this was able to reopen, but no one has followed our store since it opened. "As soon as Xiao Er of this shop talks about it, he almost tells all the past and present lives in this store, and it seems that he is also heartless.

"Hey, what are you still doing there, hurry up and go to the kitchen to see if the dishes are ready, don't make the guests wait for a long time!" When the shopkeeper looked up and saw him standing there, not knowing what to say to his guests, he was so angry that he almost jumped to his feet.

The shopkeeper was so frightened that he quickly fled into the kitchen.

Si Hao thought for a moment and said, "Everyone must be extra careful tonight, if there is any situation, we must be calm, it is best for us to live in a room with two people, so that we can take care of it." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Chuyao slightly hooked the corners of his lips and looked at him with a smile: "Brother Si Hao is right, let's stay together for one night tonight, I think the three of us girls don't know martial arts, so we can only live separately, Hongqiang will be handed over to Ah Fulai for protection, Luzhu, why don't you stay with that dark guard brother for a night?" As she spoke, she pointed to the dark guard who was exploring the path for them just now, the dark guard was drinking tea, and when he heard it, he almost didn't spit out the tea, he glanced at the green beads a little blankly, how did he feel that there was a yin wind drilling into him? It's not good, it's murderous.

"Miss, don't worry, I'd better live in the same room with Miss!" Lu Zhu said with a slightly red face, how could she live with a strange man for a night? She didn't know what kind of person the other party was, so what if she was a scoundrel? Miss's arrangement is too inappropriate.

"Yao'er lives in a room with me." Shang Jingcheng said in a deep voice. How can this girl rob people with him!

When Lu Zhu heard this, he said a little anxiously: "Then, then I'll live in a room alone, I don't need anyone to protect me!" "And didn't the shopkeeper say it? There are no more disappearances.

Xie Chuyao glanced at Si Hao, who was silent, and then sighed and said, "Luzhu, what if you disappear?" No, no, if not, Brother Si Hao, can you protect the green beads for me? "Give him a step down at the right time, and see if he can take it.

"Yes." Si Hao slowly spit out these two words, his tone was still flat, and only the hand that slowly let go could see how worried he was about this girl really living in the same room with the secret guard just now.

Lu Zhu glanced at him with some words and stopped, and saw that he was just drinking tea by himself, so he swallowed the words back, how did she feel that the eldest lady was cheating herself, this man hates himself so much, isn't it boring to live in a room with him?

sighed secretly in his heart, a little helpless, but this was arranged by the eldest lady, and he also agreed, if she said anything more, it would seem that he didn't know what to do.

At this time, the shopkeeper came up with the vegetables, and only ate some dry food at noon on the way, and everyone was already hungry, especially the two people, Hongqiang and Luzhu, as soon as they saw the vegetables coming up, their eyes began to glow green.

"Okay, let's start, come, Luzhu, Hongqiang, you two eat more, it's been hard along the way, and you have the strength to sleep when you're full!" Xie Chuyao sandwiched a chicken leg between the two of them, which made Shang Jingcheng's face sink slightly, it seems that her position in her heart is really not even comparable to these two girls!

Suddenly, there was an extra piece of chicken wings in the bowl in his hand, and he looked up at her in some surprise, but he was stunned by her smile, this woman still has him in her heart.

"Shang Jingcheng, you can eat a chicken wing, I like to eat it too!" As he spoke, he snatched another chicken wing from Si Hao's chopsticks and said, "Brother Si Hao, this is a couple's chicken wing, it's not suitable for you to eat, Shang Jingcheng and I are just right!" ”

Si Hao looked sullenly at the chicken wings he had been snatched away, and then glanced at the chicken legs in the green beads and the red rosewood bowl, so why can't there be couple chicken wings but not couple chicken legs? That's not fair, isn't it?
