"What the hell do you think there's something hidden here, how can they see me like they're seeing ghosts?"

Xie Ling sat in Gu Changqing's room, eating his pastries, and talking as if he was chattering.

Gu Changqing held a small porcelain vase in his hand, thinking about what Li Hongsheng knew before he was killed.

"What did you say?" He looked up and asked.

"I mean, I seem to have a vague memory of something?"

Xie Ling leaned on Gu Changqing and sat over, "I'm a person, I don't have a good memory, and I also told you that I don't remember anything when I drink." ”

"Getting to the point."

Xie Ling pursed his lips and continued, "Do you remember where you first saw me? In front of Li Hongsheng's tomb, but I forgot how to go, but looking at these two people today when they saw me, I seemed to suddenly remember something. We drank together that night, and I actually drank quite well, but after drinking a little that day, I felt drowsy, and I didn't eat much, and guess what, when I was in a daze, I felt like a person was carrying me somewhere. ”

"Where?" Gu Changqing asked.

Xie Ling shook his head, "I really don't remember." ”

"Isn't that for nothing?" Gu Changqing got up, "Let's go, I'll take you to a place." ”

"Where are you going?"

The two of them secretly went to the backyard of the inn in the silence of the night, where there are usually places to put some messy items, and outsiders are generally not allowed to enter.

They secretly hid on the stairs and watched for a long time, and the shopkeeper on duty in front of them slept in a daze, and no one entered or exited the backyard.

The two men glanced at each other and walked over with a fluttering footstep, the door creaking as it opened.

Xie Ling held his breath and glanced at Gu Changqing, and said silently, "What should I do?" ”

Gu Changqing leaned on the crack in the door and secretly took a look, and the shopkeeper on duty just heard the voice and changed his position and continued to fall asleep.

Turning around, he waved his hand, "It's okay, let's go." ”

The small shop in the backyard of the inn is not a little messy, with tattered cabbage and radishes, and all kinds of baskets and pans.

Xie Ling looked at this situation and said softly, "What is this, it doesn't look like opening a store at all." ”

Gu Changqing didn't refute, he took a closer look at the littered basin, and the grease on it was already thick.

He frowned and sniffed it, there was already a strange smell on it, probably not washed for a long time.

"I suspect this place is actually a façade." Gu Changqing said.

"Disguise?" Xie Ling's eyes were full of doubts.

"Yes, it's a disguise." He glanced at the entire courtyard, "Look at this store, there is a thick layer of grease on the ground at the door, who opens a shop to do business and doesn't make the façade beautiful, and this, you look at the cabbage and radish, many of the good ones in it are just thrown away, if you open a store, will you do this?" Doesn't this require capital? ”

"Maybe the boss is not bad for money?" Xie Ling interrupted him and said.

"Not bad money. You're right. Why is it not bad for money to open this restaurant? Is it for fun? ”

Seeing that Xie Ling was more confused, he continued, "Is it because of this that it is suspicious? The more unclear the purpose, the more terrible it is. You see, there should be a cellar in this backyard. ”

"What are you looking for in the cellar?"

Seeing that Gu Changqing was looking for something that looked like him, Xie Ling was bored by himself, muttered a few words and began to look for it.

Originally, there was only a small door in the cellar to prevent others from falling without knowing it, but there doesn't seem to be such a small door in this yard.

"Not here? Are you misestimating? ”

"Come here." Gu Changqing stretched out his hand to greet her.

Xie Ling walked over and saw a large water tank, "What are you doing?" ”

"Help me lift it."

"What? Lift it up? Xie Ling's voice suddenly amplified, "It's so big, how can you lift it!" ”

Gu Changqing lowered his head and was ready to be lifted, Xie Lingxin was sideways and grabbed it.

The water tank placed outside in the winter was cold, and as soon as I put my hand on it, I felt a complete chill.

But the water tank didn't seem to be as heavy as expected, and it didn't feel difficult for the two of them to work together.

The water tank was slowly removed, and a wooden door suddenly appeared underneath the tank.

Xie Ling was a little surprised, and said in surprise, "How do you know that there will be a door here?" ”

"This tank looks big, but the base is small, and this wooden door is not completely covered." Gu Changqing stated slowly, "The edge of the wooden door is exposed. ”

"But I just saw it, why didn't I find it?" Xie Ling said suspiciously, she was looking for it very carefully just now!

Gu Changqing looked at it helplessly, and he didn't know what to say, so he reached out to see the lock on the door, the most common lock, there was nothing special.

"Find me a thinner wire." Gu Changqing said.

Xie Ling rummaged for a long time before finding a very small wire in a corner, and Gu Changqing took the wire and opened the lock with ease.

Xie Ling was not only surprised, but even more admired, and smacked his tongue and said, "Master Gu, wouldn't it be a waste for me to say that you are not a thief with this skill." ”

As he spoke, the wooden door that Gu Changqing opened, suddenly a strange fragrance suddenly rushed out, extremely strong.

He covered his nose and jumped off.

Xie Ling looked at his back, which disappeared in an instant, and screamed for a long time. Lying down at that mouth and looking down, there was a black rumbling inside, and nothing could be seen.

After a while, Gu Changqing's voice came back, "Don't shout, be careful that others hear." ”

"How are you, what did you find?" Xie Ling asked eagerly.

"You come down."

"I'm afraid of heights." remembered that time on the wall of the Li Mansion, it was not that there was no one without shame.

"I'll pick you up, and you'll jump down."

Since Gu Changqing said it, his heart jumped as soon as his eyes were closed.

It was very dark inside, and she didn't know how Gu Changqing caught her. But at that moment, within a strong fragrance, she still clearly smelled the unique smell of Gu Changqing's body.

Clean, like a sun-kissed smell.

"Well, what are you doing down here?" She pushed Gu Changqing away with some embarrassment, and her words were a little hoarse.

"Oh, the cat is here?" Gu Changqing cleared his throat and said.

"What's so boring?" She said with an unnatural look.

"There's a dead man here." Gu Changqing said lightly.

Xie Ling, who was still immersed in the embrace of the two people just now, immediately took a step back when he heard this, hiding behind Gu Changqing, "Where is it?" ”

There was a dead man in the place where the black goo was rumbling, and she was so frightened that her hands and feet trembled.

Although she can see ghosts, she still can't control the fear of ghosts and dead people.

"Here."

Gu Changqing turned around, pointed behind Xie Ling and said, "Right behind you." ”

Xie Ling was so frightened that he jumped up directly and hugged Gu Changqing tightly.

In the dark cellar, only a few moonlight faintly cast.

Both of them blushed suddenly.
