"You're scared too?" This is Zhong Kui's question.

"Why can't I be afraid?" The cousin excused himself with some stuttering.

Xiao Ming on the side didn't understand what the two of them were talking about, he looked at the master, and then at the uncle, who might have been a little too pale because he was afraid.

"Master, I'm scared too." As soon as his words came out, he immediately provoked Zhong Kui's fierce glare, and he quickly lowered his head, not daring to say more.

"When will your uncle come back?" Retracting his gaze from Xiao Ming's face, Zhong Kui continued to gossip from east to west.

The cousin blinked as if he was thinking, and after a moment he said, "They usually only come back once every two or three days. ”

Zhong Kui didn't continue to ask when he heard it, but he was thinking about another thing in his heart, which he couldn't say for a while. Speaking out scares a person......

Xiao Ming had nothing to do, so he toyed with his fingers.

The cousin was a little absent-minded, his eyes were bottomless, and he couldn't see what he was thinking.

The conference room is like an isolated bomb shelter. There is no fresh air coming in, the feeling of oppression is everywhere, and the flow of life is not felt here. I don't feel that this is a human world, but like a lonely planet far from the vibrant earth, human beings.

"You guys stay here, I still have to go to the monitoring room."

The cousin left under the gaze of the master and apprentice, looking at the gently shaking door, Xiao Ming said, "Master, this uncle is really bold. ”

"Are you scared?" Zhong Kui said as he looked at Xiao Ming with a serious expression.

Xiao Ming raised his head and said, "With Master here, what is there to be afraid of?" I...... Unafraid. ”

"Are you afraid if I'm not here?" The gaze of scrutiny, including anticipation. the eyes that speak with you; How can my apprentice be a coward?

Xiao Ming didn't understand why Master had to do this, so he asked again and again. As I said just now, I am not afraid, it is impossible to be cowardly under the repeated inquiries of the master! Thinking of this, he raised his head again and raised his voice and said, "Don't be afraid. ”

Zhong Kui smiled happily and got up, put down the backpack containing food, and had a strange expression. Walking at strange steps, he walked around him several times, and said to him: "Don't be afraid, I'll come when I go, don't go there, just stay here and wait for me to come back." ”

Xiao Ming stupidly watched the master walk in a circle around him, and watched him leave the room blankly. The heart struggled and said, "No! I said I wasn't afraid, but I was scared! Please, Master, don't leave me behind......

There was a soft sound, and the sound of the door slamming made Xiao Ming tremble slightly. His eyes mechanically scanned the empty room, and only then did he realize that just a few seconds ago, Master had left him alone in this strange environment.

Luo Xiaoming thought about it for a long time, but he never thought of this. At least that time it was for him to stay with a living person, and this time it was to throw him down and leave him in an empty room where there was not even a single person to talk to.

When night came, a hazy and strange feeling around the hotel that could not be seen by the eye was quietly highlighted. The dim street lamps reflected on the shadows of the trees, reflected in the dark corners of the eaves, and there was nothing in these spaces, only an invisible silence and coldness.

Xiao Ming didn't know how long the master had been gone, but in short, he felt that the time was long enough to make him cold. I opened the door and straightened my neck to look at the movement in the corridor, but the corridor was still quiet without a sound. It was as if even the wind was still, so quiet that only his own heartbeat and breathing could be heard.

Leaning forward, his eyes searching inch by inch, hoping that the master would suddenly appear in front of him. Xiao Ming didn't know where the master was going, but he could go and find it.

Carrying his backpack, he nervously picked up a copper coin that Master had given him earlier. Pluck up the courage and blend into the dimly lit corridor step by step. After Xiao Ming took a few steps, he had to stop, prick up his ears, and listen intently for a moment. He didn't know how, but he always heard someone talking, but he couldn't tell the exact location.

He stood still, not daring to move, his eyes matching his hearing. Turn around slowly...... Use a keen consciousness to catch the slightest fluctuating source of the sound, and finally make sure that the voice seems to be coming from the corner in front of you.

It's really ...... to walk alone in a long shadow and walk in a decorated corridor that smells of chemical molecules. Xiao Ming didn't dare to continue to think about it, swallowed his saliva nervously, and said to himself repeatedly: It's okay, there's nothing here, isn't there still a master and that strange uncle?

After comforting himself for a while, my heart of fear seemed to be much better. Only then did he continue to move forward, Xiao Ming actually wanted to shout, but he was afraid that the master would say that he would shout because he was afraid.

Xiao Ming's distance from the voice was getting closer and closer, and he could even clearly hear that it was a man who spoke.

He crept almost against the wall of the porch and felt it step by step, only to see the sound coming from a small room. The room is facing Xiao Ming's position, and there is a double window.

He stood on tiptoe and looked through the window to see a single bed in the room. There is also a telephone set resting on the bedside table, which looks like a temporary place for employees to rest.

The man who was holding the phone receiver and talking was facing away from Xiao Ming.

The man was a burly, bald head, leaning on a bedside table. The voice is quiet, and you have to go into the house to get close to hear it.

Xiao Ming dared to go in! He just wanted to say; That strange uncle just now actually coaxed Master Zhong Kui, saying that there was no one else here. Why is there a bald man here? And why did Uncle Blame coax Master? Could it be that he deliberately coaxed them, and calculated their master and apprentice, right?

Thinking like this, Xiao Ming was scared. At this moment, the guy on the phone in the house seemed to have hung up the phone and was about to come out.

Xiao Ming was short, slowly squatting down, looking away little by little, not daring to continue to stare inside. Before he could completely look away, the bald man had turned to face him.

He looked at it and saw that this person had a fierce appearance, especially the conspicuous 'T' font on the center of his eyebrows, the man's blue and white face, and the slightly fierce eyes. Shocked, Xiao Ming trembled like a chill, in addition to squatting down quickly and hiding his body in a dark corner, he also wanted to find the master as soon as possible and tell him everything he saw. The door creaked open, and the bald head was so heavy that every step shook the ground. After coming out of the house, he moved his nose as if he was sniffing something, and after coming out of the house, he gradually walked in the opposite direction of Xiao Ming.

Seeing the bald head walking away, Xiao Ming had an idea, and he couldn't find the master, so it was better to knock on the machine for him. As long as the phone is dialed, the master will immediately find a place to restore the phone as soon as he receives the message, even if it does not restore. He will also think about the source of this number, and indirectly he will know that the message number is from this hotel, so he will also know that he must be looking for him.
