"Amitabha, the poor road has finally found you, hehehehe!"

When this sentence is released from the phone,

Zhou Ze and Xu Qinglang set their eyes on the old Tao around them.

The look on Lao Dao's face was very colorful, some were shocked, some were frightened, some were hesitant, and some were at a loss.

yes

Zhou Ze and Xu Qinglang had said before that this voice was a bit familiar.

Now it turns out that this is actually the voice of the old way.

It's just because the human voice transmitted from the mobile phone is inevitably a little distorted, and Zhou Ze and Xu Qinglang didn't expect the old voice to appear in it before, so they were caught and blackened.

But adding a "poor way" after the sentence "Amitabha" is a common idiom of the old way, especially the "hey, hey, hey" after it, which vividly interprets the "cheapness" of the old way.

Lao Dao is a Taoist priest, his real name may even he sometimes forget, his name is Lu Fangweng, the ancient Lu You is also called "Fang Weng", and is called Lu Fangweng, but although he has the same name as the ancient great poet, but Lao Dao's style of acting is not much more scored.

He has always thought that he is a Taoist, but he does not have the slightest duty to be a Taoist, except for the inexhaustible ancestral rune paper that has been hidden in the crotch of his pants can also have some effect, in him, he can hardly find the second place that is the characteristics of a Taoist.

Even the usual oral language "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable", he often speaks of "Amitabha".

Seeing that the boss and Xu Qinglang's eyes were looking at him,

The old man smiled,

Stretched out his hand and pointed to his face, and said:

"You can't think I'm behind it, can you?"

All right

Generally speaking

The most non-existent and unlikely character at the beginning of the suspense drama often walks to the front desk at the end and tears the veil to surprise everyone, he is actually the murderer, and those who dance happily at the beginning and are suspected at the beginning are often innocent.

But here in the old way,

Is he behind it?

He's standing behind it all in the picture?

Xu Qinglang and Zhou Ze shook their heads slightly, "Let's go out first." ”

"yes, yes."

The two turned around and walked out of the restaurant.

Lao Dao was a little nervous at first, for fear that the boss would misunderstand something, but seeing that the boss and Lao Xu actually gave up their suspicions about themselves, Lao Dao suddenly felt a little lost.

This feeling of being "trusted" doesn't seem so pleasant.

"Boss, why don't you think about it again............"

Zhou Ze and Xu Qinglang continued to walk forward without looking back.

"It's good to be pretty............"

Lao Dao was a little helpless, so he could only go out with him.

From the restaurant to the rented villa, there were no pedestrians along the way, and the three of them returned to the hot spring pool.

Zhou Ze walked into the hot spring first, buried his face in it, and when he raised his head again, he reached out and touched the water droplets on his face, and the dark clouds in the sky and the black and oppressive atmosphere before had disappeared.

It seems that this entrance is actually this hot spring.

Lao Dao and Xu Qinglang also returned, the big guy's clothes were all wet, obviously, the space where they were before was not a completely independent place, but a supernatural "environment" relying on the real world.

For example, when lying in the hot spring before, Zhou Ze and the others were undressed, and they waited for Lao Dao to feel a thigh from the pool before running out of the pool and getting dressed and leaving the room.

And now, the clothes are still on the three of them, and Lao Dao is still wrapped in a bathrobe.

The hot spring pool is a bit like a hypnotic pendulum clock, allowing you to see more things, but in reality you may only see "hallucinations", and you yourself are still walking and moving in reality.

Sometimes, Zhou Ze can't help but wonder that there are many crazy people in this world, who like to say some rumors, and are regarded by the people around them as a typical example of "brain disease and mental abnormality", does that mean that in fact, people can really see a "world" that is based on reality but is invisible to ordinary people?

Of course, this is just like the fact that in the reports of so many natural deaths and accidental deaths in countries around the world every year, there are actually many homicides that have not been discovered and investigated at all, and the specific circumstances are really unknown.

Xu Qinglang took off his clothes, changed into a bathrobe, and then walked up to Zhou Ze, motioned for Zhou Ze to take off the wet clothes on his body as well, and then hung the clothes of the two of them together on a hanger to dry.

Zhou Ze sat on the sofa in the living room, playing with his mobile phone in his hand.

Lao Dao sat next to him and used the boiling water from the electric kettle to make tea, and took the initiative to hand Zhou Ze a cup.

Zhou Ze took the teacup, shook it, and said, "Lao Xu, have you ever seen a movie called "The Shining"?" ”

"The horror movie?" Xu Qinglang asked.

"Well, I think the situation we are experiencing now is somewhat similar to the one in The Shining, the reality and the illusion that the truth is not clear from the false, plus the picture of the residents who died here and those who died nearby all eating here together, it is very similar to the photo in "The Shining"."

"So, what do you mean?" Xu Qinglang took a sip of tea, "Such a big appetite?" ”

Zhou Ze shook his head, "I don't want to care about the secrets of this place for the time being, anyway, it's here, and there will be opportunities in the future, to be honest, I've forgotten a little about what we're here for."

Forget it, let's find the murderer who killed the family of three first, let's talk about the rest, the key is that the ghost calls, I have to figure it out, otherwise I always feel uncomfortable. ”

Speaking of ghost calls, Zhou Ze looked at Lao Dao again, how did Lao Dao's voice appear on the phone?

Could it be that the one on the phone knows how to do ventriloquism? Know how to imitate the old voice and way of speaking?

"Ding-dong............ Dingdong ............"

Someone was ringing the doorbell outside.

Lao Dao got up and opened the door, and there was a waiter standing outside, and he asked with some concern, "Hello, I wanted to ask if you need any help?" ”

"Help?" The old way is a little inexplicable.

"That's right, I saw the three of you talking in the restaurant before, I called you, but you didn't respond, so I came here to consult, if you are hungry and want to eat, we can start a little earlier, after all, there are not many guests who are in the house now."

"No thanks." Lao Dao refused.

"Okay, I won't disturb your rest." The waiter smiled and nodded.

Lao Dao closed the door, and then shouted to Zhou Ze and the others inside: "Boss, the hotel waiter came to see if we were sleepwalking collectively, haha." ”

"Next time, don't go in together, at least leave one or two people to watch." Zhou Ze said.

Xu Qinglang nodded, "I'm looking bad now, let's go wash my face first, take care of my skin, and then make the next step in the evening." ”

"Okay, let's rest first." Zhou Ze agreed.

Immediately, Zhou Ze got up and walked from the living room to the hot spring pool, stretched out his hand and pointed to the hot spring pool, "Old Dao, you picked up a human leg here at the beginning, right?" ”

"Yes, a woman's leg, if it's a man, it probably has to be ............," Lao Dao said, glancing quietly into the room with his eyes.

You must know that he really admitted his mistake at the beginning, thinking that Lao Xu was teasing him.

"Drain the pool of water." Zhou Ze said.

Lao Dao nodded, at this time the hot spring pool had cooled down, although the water was still warm, but there was no fog, Lao Dao went barefoot to pull out the piston, and the water began to slowly put down.

"Human legs, it should be true."

Zhou Ze lit a cigarette and said silently:

"This time the matter seems to be a bit big, that family of three seems to be just an introduction, and that family of three has their heads cut off, and as a result, there was a leg in this hot spring pool."

Spit out a puff of smoke rings,

"After the case of another family of three, the reason why this hot spring hotel can continue to operate is also because the family of three died on the way down the mountain, not in an accident in the hotel.

But the truth doesn't seem to be like this, Lao Xu said before, the family of three was groping for their lost head in the hotel room, and now it seems that someone here didn't know how long ago someone left a leg here, although the leg is now invisible, but since it can be seen by us in that state, it means that it has appeared. ”

"Boss, do you suspect that the murderer is an insider of this hotel?"

"It's not all." Zhou Ze shook off the ashes of his cigarette, "I even began to wonder if this was a hot spring resort hotel or a slaughterhouse." ”

As he spoke, Zhou Ze tried to make his left fingernail grow out, and a black mist immediately condensed in his palm, and then Zhou Ze stuck his fingernail upside down on the edge of the hot spring pool.

This is Zhou Ze's method of coming to find the nearby dead souls before, but now he is just trying it casually, and he has no other clue now.

Who knows it's okay not to try,

When I tried it, I found that there were really black footprints here.

The footprints stretched from the hot spring pool to the living room.

Is there really one?

Zhou Ze raised his head and walked along the series of footprints.

The footprints turned a corner in the living room and went straight into the bathroom.

At this time, Xu Qinglang was washing his face with facial cleanser in the bathroom, and at this time he was looking at the skin care products on his face in the mirror, and he was carefully touching himself in the mirror.

And footprints,

After extending to the bathroom sink, it began to develop upwards again, and it should have been the thing that climbed onto the sink.

After climbing up to the sink,

Where did it go again?

Zhou Ze stretched out his hand and patted Xu Qinglang on the shoulder.

"What?" Xu Qinglang asked while continuing to pat his face in the mirror.

Zhou Ze gently rubbed the mirror with his fingernails,

Xu Qinglang stopped the slapping in his hand,

And myself in the mirror,

But he continued to slap his face carefully,

There is no intention of stopping.

"Bang Bang Bang ............"
