Chapter 097: Ruyi Hotel (3)
I looked at Jin Xuan very unhappily, is he teasing me? Neither a ghost, nor a zombie, nor a human, so what else could it be? Elves and immortals, this is simply impossible, looking at the appearance of the two of them, where will there be any fairy energy!
"Jin Xuan, tell me quickly, what the hell are they?" My curiosity is naturally very great, if Jinxuan doesn't tell me, I will feel uncomfortable, no matter what I do, I can't do anything.
"They are ferrymen, and they can also be said to live in the underworld, but they are different from ordinary humans. They are flesh and blood, and they will age, but when they are reincarnated as humans, they can still retain the memories of their past lives, so that they will become ferrymen of this underworld for the rest of their lives. Jin Xuan's eyes shone brightly, as if he was telling a story, and his eyes seemed to speak.
I was fascinated by this Jinxuan, and his magic power made me fall into an abyss without extricating myself. I clearly understood that I was already in love with him.
But what the hell is this ferryman, I don't understand, so I can only continue to ask Jinxuan.
He patiently told me that this ferryman specially ferries the spirits of the dead who roam the underworld and guides them to the Naihe Bridge...... And the ferryman's ferry hotel is opened in the place where yin and yang intersect, so it is easy for mortals to strayed into this yin and yang hotel, once mortals misunderstand, they will be caught by this ferryman and tortured......
"Jin Xuan, how will they torture mortals? Did you kill them? "I don't understand, I just feel strange, why didn't Jin Xuan say it halfway through? I'm very concerned about what the ferryman will do to these mortals who have strayed into this place, and what will happen to those people.
"You'll understand...... What should come will come, but you don't have to be afraid, because with me, I won't let you be hurt in the slightest. Jin Xuan still didn't answer my question directly, as if he was deliberately avoiding my question. Is it my question that is difficult to answer? Or is there a secret in this that can't be told?
Jin Xuan's expression was serious, as if he was waiting for something...... Could it be that something unquiet will happen in a while? I looked at my watch, and the hands showed exactly two o'clock, and it would be dawn in a few hours. By daybreak, I'm definitely going to get out of here......
Because, this place is so weird, but this is the underworld, how do I get out? However, looking back, I don't need to worry about these things at all, anyway, with Jin Xuan here, he will always have a way, right?
"Jinxuan, I'm scared......" I began to tremble, and I couldn't control my body and quickly hid in his arms. It's safer to be in his arms, although his body is very cold, but it gives me a special sense of security.
"Really, what the hell is this place! Hey, it's really been eight lifetimes of bad luck and came to this place...... "Just as I was drowsy in Jinxuan's arms, I suddenly heard a young woman's voice. It's definitely people, but it's already two o'clock in the morning, how can anyone still come here? Could it be that like me, I strayed into this hotel in the underworld?
"Girl, when you are alone at night, don't come out no matter what you hear! Curiosity kills. A familiar voice came, it was the voice of the proprietress who had said the same thing to the young girl.
I peeked out of the doorway, worried, and I saw that the young girl was living across from me. And just as I was watching all this from behind, the proprietress who was in the corridor suddenly turned around, and she was smiling at me, and the smile was so weird......
A gut told me that the young girl on the other side was in danger. As a human of the same race, I can't afford to watch her in danger, and it seems that I have to find a suitable opportunity to tell her that she must get out of here as soon as possible, this place is really too dangerous......
Thinking of the female ghost whose head and body were not in the same place, and the eerie feeling emanating from the surroundings, my intuition told me that there were a lot of ghosts here that I couldn't see, and it would be really not cost-effective if I didn't pay attention to those ghosts.
I listened softly through the door. When I heard that the proprietress had left, I said to Jin Xuan, "Jin Xuan, I'll go out for a while, I have to tell that girl to be safe." If you can leave, it's better to get out of here quickly, it's so weird......"
Because I was really worried about the girl's safety, I didn't care about the fear in my heart. He got up with a cigarette, quietly came to the room opposite the door, and knocked on the door......
"Who......" said the young woman.
"I want to tell you something about the guests who have passed through the room." I wonder if this young girl would have believed that she had not slept for so much of the night, and had come to her guests...... Does she think I'm a bad person? If you don't think so, you'll think I'm a nervous stool.
I had prepared for the worst in my heart, if this girl really didn't open the door, then I would let Jin Xuan cast a spell to get me in, and I must make the situation clear to her here.
"The door is unlocked, you just come in." The young girl's voice was soft, and her voice had a penetrating power, and she spoke in such a beautiful voice that she seemed to be the best I could ever count.
Since the young girl had already said this, I thought about it, and I didn't care so much, so I went in.
The young girl's hair was already falling out, and she was sitting in front of the dresser, combing her hair...... I couldn't see her clearly, but I seemed to have a general impression of her in my mind's eye. The accent that listened to her before should be northern, and she is more impatient, presumably the kind of lively, cute and generous girl......
However, the girl I see now is like a woman from a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, giving people a very gentle feeling. This is a world of difference from the previous impression on me, is this really the same person? How can a person feel so differently?
"Classmate, are you also a student at a university near here? Why did you come to this place so late, or are you alone? "I don't always tell this girl without coming up, and then I say to her, 'Hey, girl, this is a ghost hotel, not a place for you to come......
always felt that this was too abrupt, so I could only get close to her first. I was following the same path as the school, so I misunderstood this ghost place, and now that this girl has also arrived here, she must have followed the same path as me. And the reason why she came here must be because of the students in the vicinity, and there is only one school in the vicinity, so I guess from my heart that it is very likely that the two of us are alumni.
If it's alumni, that's great. Some words can be more casual, in short, alumni will not harm alumni, and this is the only connection between the two of us.
"Huh...... I guess so. The young woman said without looking back, still brushing her hair. There was no electricity in the house, so I had to use the small flashlight in my hand......
I thought to myself, isn't she afraid? How do you sit here and comb your hair? Haven't she heard about the rumors of combing her hair at midnight? In my opinion, this is all something that everyone on earth knows, if you comb your hair in the mirror at midnight, what will appear in the mirror is not your own face, but a grimace.
Thinking of this horrible rumor, I have never tried it myself. I admit that I was very timid, didn't have the courage to try it alone, and now ...... When I saw this young girl, I couldn't help but gradually move the light of the flashlight towards her body so that I could see in the mirror.
What I cared about most was the mirror in front of the young woman, and I could just verify that rumor......
My eyes slowly moved to the mirror, and gradually I saw an illusory shadow in the mirror. And when the shadow in the mirror appeared in front of me, I suddenly felt weak in my limbs and collapsed to the ground.
My limbs seemed to be imprisoned, and I wanted to shout Jinxuan, but my voice seemed to be blocked, and I couldn't shout at all. I was at a loss, so I watched the female ghost slowly walk towards me......
It turned out that the girl who was sitting with her back to me just now was not a person at all, but a female ghost...... No wonder I thought she was giving me a completely different feeling than the girl I was looking out the door.
I looked up and swept the floor, and saw what appeared to be a person lying in front of me. If I'm not mistaken, the man lying on the ground is the young girl I saw.
As for the female ghost who appeared in front of me now, I didn't know who she was, let alone why she was here, and what she was going to do to me next.
At this moment, I am like a little sheep to be slaughtered, and there is nothing I can do about it.
Isn't it true that when I encounter danger, Jin Xuan can sense it? Why is it that he is in the opposite room now, we are so close apart, why didn't he come to save me?
The female ghost had a bloody mouth, and when she was very close to me, I realized that her hair was covered with white maggots, and those little things were still crawling on top of her hair, which was very disgusting.
I tried desperately to shout and struggle, but it was all in vain...... The female ghost laughed loudly, all of this seemed to be her trick, and it was all expected by her.
She touched my face lightly, and whispered, "Good, good, let's be my doll......" My eyes were full of tears because of the pain, I didn't know what was waiting for me, and that Jinxuan, who kept saying that he wanted to protect me, why didn't he come to save me?
