Chapter 253: Breakthrough
"What did Xiao Ai tell you?" The old lady asked the question again.
From her expression, I felt that she was particularly afraid of what Xiao Ai would say to us. What can Xiao Ai say to us?
I said. "Well, I didn't say anything, I just came to provide us with a service, and I introduced us to the type of service."
Hearing this, the old lady seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but she seemed to be particularly good at hiding her emotions, and quickly regained her composure and said. "Well, if she really told you something, you should also think that she is talking nonsense, don't believe her. Of course nothing was said, better. ”
So saying, the old lady went into the house and circled the whole room.
Soon she noticed that the charms that had been attached to the house were gone.
"There's a spell behind the desk and behind the TV, why is it gone?" The old lady asked!
"We've burned it." I said, and I said, observing the old lady's expression carefully.
"You burned it, why did you burn that charm? That's a spell designed to ward off evil spirits. The old lady said in surprise.
I wondered in my heart, the spell was obviously to attract ghosts, but the old lady said that the charm was to drive away ghosts and evil spirits, she was lying? Or did she not even know that the spell was a trick for ghosts?
"Old lady, there's something wrong with that charm, don't you know? That's not to exorcise ghosts and ward off evil spirits at all, but to attract ghosts. I said!
Her mouth opened wide in surprise and she didn't say a word for a long time.
"How is it possible, I specially asked the master to draw that charm, and then pasted it in this room, how can it be that it is to attract ghosts and evil spirits? By the way, how do you know that the spell is for demons? Could it be that you two are in the middle of the netherworld? A suspicious look appeared on the old lady's face.
Of course, I wouldn't tell her who the two of us really were, so I said perfunctorily. "How can the two of us be so young? I just felt that something was wrong with the spell, so I took a picture and sent it to a friend of mine who knew yin and yang, and he said that the spell was wrong, so we burned the charm. ”
The old lady's eyes narrowed, and she looked me up and down, as if to determine whether I was lying.
After more than ten seconds, she suddenly softened her tone. "Well, if it burns, then burn it, but you'd better not mess with the things in this room in the future. As you know, our hotel is a well-known place where ordinary people dare not live, and the reason why I asked the master to put a charm in this house is also for your own good. Okay, it's not early, you go to bed early, it's still the same sentence, don't care about what you can hear, let alone open the door, I know you may be a little scared, it's okay, after falling asleep, you won't be afraid of anything. ”
Then the old lady smiled grimly again. "When you fall asleep, it's the same as when you're dead, you don't feel anything, and you won't be afraid of anything anymore, so you go to bed early."
Her last few words made me feel a chill.
Seeing that the old lady turned to leave, I hurriedly said. "Wait a minute, the girl named Xiao Ai just now disappeared in a blink of an eye, who is that girl?"
There are some things I have to ask about, even if it's the old lady's words, because I always feel that the old lady is very wrong.
The old lady paused, turned and spoke. "That girl named Xiao Ai...... She's dangerous, you'd better not provoke her, remember! ”
The old lady did not answer my question, but gave us a warning, turned and walked out the door again.
Wang Shen hurriedly ran over and stopped in front of her and said. "Old man, just now we heard a sound in room 325 next door, so we kicked the door open, only to see a black shadow in the room, but it disappeared in a flash, what the hell is going on?" 【# ! & Better, newer and faster]
I thought the old lady would be angry at the mention of this, after all, we had kicked the door of 325 crooked without her consent.
Unexpectedly, the old lady was not angry at all, but just sighed and said. "I told you earlier, this last room 325 is reserved for dirty things to cook, and at night, if you live in this 324, the dirty things will live in 325, but the dark shadow you see should be my son."
"Huh? Is it your son? ”
"Today is Halloween, my son is coming back, room 325 is the room where he lived before his death, well, to be exact, after he died, we placed his spiritual seat in room 325 for a long time, so of course my son will go to the room where he lived when he comes back."
This is a bit creepy, if you don't believe in ghosts and gods, it doesn't sound like anything, but if people like us know that there are ghosts in the world, it really sounds a little creepy.
"The watery footprints in the hallway are also your son's?"
"Yes, that's really my son's footprints, my son will come home tonight, he wants to see me and his wife, and he has to go upstairs to check the whole hotel, anyway, this is his home after all, and he also has a lot of reluctance."
"But how are your son's footprints drenched?" I asked
The old lady looked up at me, sighed softly, and said. "Because of my son...... He fell into the well and drowned, and when he fished it up, his body was almost rotting, and of course his body was drenched in water. ”
The old lady seemed a little sad, shook her head, and did not want to say any more, turned and walked out the door, and went downstairs along the corridor.
After the old lady left, silence returned to the room, and the two of us went back to the room and closed the door.
"Why do I feel more and more that something is wrong?" Wang Shen muttered a little depressedly.
"I thought that after arriving at this hotel, something terrible would happen, but in fact, it was almost dawn now, and nothing particularly scary happened, it was nothing more than hearing movement in room 325, and then seeing a dark shadow, followed by the girl named Xiao Ai."
I frowned and pondered for a moment. "Actually, both of us were wrong."
Hearing this, Wang Shen looked up at me and said with some puzzlement. "Why? What's wrong with the two of us? ”
"We always thought that this hotel would be haunted and dirty, but in fact, the scariest thing in this hotel is not the ghosts, but the old couple, especially the old lady." I said!
"Yes, I also think that the old lady is very wrong, and sometimes her speech is eerie and uncomfortable, but it looks like she is just an old couple, so what's wrong?"
"I don't know my heart, this charity hotel has existed for so many years, and no one else has seen through the secrets of this hotel, not to mention that the two of us have only been here for less than one night, and some things still need to take time to investigate before the truth can surface."
"But we're running out of time, buddy, it's past three o'clock in the morning, and it's dawn in a few hours, and we have to leave this hotel after dawn, and our live broadcast is over. If you really get nothing, how disappointing it is, the sailors in the live broadcast room will be disappointed, the national prince will be disappointed, and the two of us will be even more disappointed. ”
I walked over, raised my hand and patted him on the shoulder. "What are you anxious about? It's past three o'clock in the morning, and there are still two or three hours, which should be enough for us, but then we can't wait here, we have to take the initiative to do something. ”
"So what are we supposed to do? Or let's go downstairs and stare quietly at the old couple, they will definitely show their feet. “
"No, that old couple is scheming, I'm afraid we can't keep an eye on them, they have already targeted us, if we want to unlock the secret of this hotel in the shortest possible time, we must first open a breakthrough from that girl." My eyes narrowed.
"You mean little love? But she's gone, oh no, I should say she's gone out of thin air, how do we open a breakthrough from her? ”
I said. "If Xiao Ai is a ghost, it is normal to disappear out of thin air, but she is a person and a normal person, so it is not normal for her to disappear out of thin air."
As soon as I said this, Wang Shen also suddenly realized. "Yes, that girl is obviously a person, how could she disappear out of thin air? Unless she has an ability to become invisible, which is not possible. ”
I said. "Xiao Ai can't have a special ability.,It's impossible to be invisible.,That's all a plot that exists.,I think it's more likely that there is a mechanism hidden in this room.,Xiao Ai ran out of this room while we weren't ready to open the mechanism.。
I have always felt that it is impossible for Xiao Ai to run out of this room in a short time, and then run through the long corridor and disappear from our sight, the only possibility is that she disappeared in this room, then there must be a secret room or a secret passage to the underground in this room, etc.
Wang Shen slapped it violently and said with a skull. "yes, why didn't I think about it, there must be something weird in this room."
"Wang Shen, do you remember when I asked Xiao Ai where she came from? Where to stay? Xiao Ai said that he lived in an underground hotel, which was nearby. ”
"Yes, she did say that she lives in an underground hotel, which is this underground hotel? In this wilderness, in addition to charity hotels, are there underground hotels nearby? ”
I shook my head and said. "I'm afraid the underground hotel she is talking about is not the other hotels in the vicinity, but the underground of this charity hotel."
Wang Shen was stunned for a moment, his eyes couldn't help but turn to the floor, he stared at the floor for several minutes before speaking. "Could it be that there really is a secret passage under this floor? Xiao Ai took advantage of our unpreparedness to lift the floor and run? ”
