Chapter 203: Trick Shop (3)
The slight change immediately hit July's ears, and the sudden sound was like an intensifying squeeze in the heart, causing a large amount of blood to rush to the limbs of the body. It just so happened that July put her ear on his chest and sensitively noticed the change.
July touched Hei Ping and stroked Zhu Beichen's chest, and asked softly: "Are you okay, why is your heart beating so hard?" β
The human senses are divided into sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch, which are the five senses, and the sixth sense is the legendary ethereal intuition. But there is a seventh type of sense. The Buddha calls it the sense of "mana consciousness", which exists only between close relatives and blood relatives. This also explains why relatives with the same blood relationship feel inexplicably anxious and uncomfortable when a loved one dies thousands of miles away, or is seriously ill.
Now Zhu Beichen is in this situation, and the more he thinks about the events of the day, the more he feels that he is about to lose an extremely important thing in his life.
He ignored July's surprised eyes, hurriedly got up and put on his clothes, put on his coat, and rushed out of the door.
The black light in the corridor was blinding, and Zhu Beichen stumbled and fell, making a loud noise.
In front of the service desk, it was still the waiter in the evening, squinting her eyes and supporting her chin and dozing, when a black shadow rolled out of the corridor with a loud noise, which made her tremble.
"Ahh
Zhu Beichen couldn't help but explain to this unlucky child, and hurriedly stood up.
The clean clothes room was already stained with a little dust, and he had just walked a few steps, and he was walking in the direction of the door.
The waiter screamed again: "Hell!
Zhu Beichen reluctantly responded to the poor fat girl, so he couldn't scare people to death: "Don't scream, I'm a guest upstairs." β
Looking up from the shadows, Zhu Beichen's appearance was hideous, and his impatient appearance frightened the waiter to close his mouth immediately.
He was about to break out of the door, and remembered that this fat girl should also be a local, and asked her if she should know something, so he said: "Let me ask you, how long has the penultimate shop been open on the left at the end of the street, and is there anything strange about it?" β
"At the end of the street... At the end of the street... The fourth... Yes! The fat girl intermittently agreed to a few words, but she didn't get to the point, and she didn't say anything after a while.
Zhu Beichen looked at the fat girl who was huddled in the corner of the service desk suspiciously, and pushed a few times.
Didn't move! shook vigorously a few more times, and then confirmed that the fat girl was actually scared and fainted.
As for that? It's just a question, at most, it's a little rude in the middle of the night, but look at her five big and three rough people who don't want to be so careless!
The more worried he was in his heart, Zhu Beichen pulled the doorknob, touched the dark blue brick road, and searched all the way to the honest pawnshop during the day.
The doors of the rows of merchants were closed, and there was not a single nocturnal walker on the desolate road.
According to his memory, he clearly remembered that the "Integrity Pawnshop" was the fourth to last at the end of the only commercial street in this ancient town, but a white street more than a meter long walked over and walked over, but he never saw the shop again.
In the hotel, Qiyue was worried about Zhu Beichen, hurriedly put on his clothes, and anxiously knocked on the door of Ning Yun.
After a few hurried knocks, Ning Yun appeared in front of July with sleepy eyes.
"Come with me to find it, Beichen suddenly jumped up in the night, and now I don't know where to run." Qi'e frowned and said worriedly.
The two of them creaked in the wooden corridor, and when they reached the first floor, they found the fat girl fainting under the service desk. Ning Yun first leaned forward and snorted, and said, "If you still have qi, you should faint instantly after being greatly stimulated." β
"Girl, does my uncle behave out of the ordinary during the day?" Ning Yunxin understood the situation carefully.
"Oh, by the way, he said that the pawnshop we went to during the day was weird." July blamed himself for not thinking about it, he was really too concerned about Beichen's affairs, and he forgot it in a hurry, and now he is very likely to return to the "honest pawnshop".
He wandered in a daze, and it had been two trips back and forth from the street to the end of the street, where was the shadow of the shop, and the fonts on the various signboards beside the road were also carefully observed, and there was not a single word "dang".
And he counted the fourth shop at the end of the street in the order he remembered, and it turned out to be an empty shop, all the furnishings in it had been removed, and only a few papier-mΓ’chΓ© white strips hung on the beams, fluttering and eerie.
"Beichen, why are you here!"
The figures of Qiyue and Ning Yun appeared behind him, and Zhu Beichen didn't know how to do it, standing in the vacant shop sluggishly, and the voice of his wife was especially in his ears.
Ning Yun seemed to see that Zhu Beichen's state was not quite right, it looked like an evil spirit, otherwise how could a good person get up and run here in the middle of the night.
"Girl, is my uncle awake now?"
The cold wind surging from the street blew through every shop on the street, the wooden door rattled, and Ning Yun pushed Zhu Beichen a few times, still standing there without any reaction.
July's eyes flashed with a gleam, scanning the streets and alleys, trying to find the anomaly, because the cold on the streets after dark was different, with an eerie aura.
"Don't shake, I'm fine." Zhu Beichen finally started to speak slowly, so frightened that Ning Yun hurriedly retracted his hands.
"Did you see something?" July is more calm, and the evil and ghosts are insignificant to the great witch.
"I saw a scene, so I wanted to come here to confirm it, and it was right." Zhu Beichen said.
"Hey, how does this look so much like the pawnshop we're going to be here during the day?" Ning Yun felt extremely familiar with the surrounding environment.
"It's not like, it's just that!" Zhu Beichen said coldly.
One sentence seemed to make the temperature in the empty shop drop by several degrees, and the surrounding cold became more and more cold. Ning Yun couldn't help but shudder, and quickly scanned the surrounding environment in surprise, the original place where there should be furnishings was empty, but the general outline layout was exactly the same.
Zhu Beichen didn't say a word indifferently, walked out with his back to his back, and then turned to the direction of the hostel. After walking more than ten steps, he turned around and said to July: "It's not early, let's go back and rest early, and we have to catch the train home tomorrow morning." β
July found that her husband had an imperceptible point of light flashing in the corner of his eye, and his lonely mood infected him for a while: Beichen was crying, was he sad? And for what?
In front of the green bricks of the ancient road, the figure gradually disappeared in the darkness, and Qiyue and Ning Yun followed step by step.
