Chapter 27: How Can a Man Have Good Intentions
Although I have only met Lou Zhi a few times, his words have been verified again and again.
I spare my life, so I'm very obedient.
We hadn't gone far before we saw his inn.
Compared with the previous town, there is nothing next to the inn now, and a lonely four-story inn stands there, looking lonely and lonely.
"It's really not the same town it used to be." I looked at the depression around me, and in the gloomy sky, I always felt that there was some sound of soo suo, wandering around, but I couldn't see anything with the naked eye, "Is this really a hell town?" ā
"Those who don't leave for three nights will become locals."
In front of the eaves, put away the umbrella.
I looked around and saw a man walking quietly in front of me.
She wore a floral dress, aimless, and didn't know where to go.
I remember this woman, when she was playing with the ring that day, she was next to Jiang Si'er, and we talked to her, and she said that night was her third night.
We also stayed here for three nights, and on the third night, there was the disappearance of Jiang Si'er.
Today is my fourth night.
"Let's go in first!"
Lin Yu opened the door, and a slight coolness came from inside, not as cold as the outside biting, the cold here is similar to the cold of the air conditioner, just to dispel the heat.
Lin Yu opened a room for me, and it was still the original one.
Only then did I know that this inn had no other guests except me.
Even if there were, they would be driven away by them under various pretexts before nightfall on the third night.
"Then why didn't you drive us away yesterday?"
When I went upstairs, I turned back and asked Lin Yu with a wink.
"Because when Miss Jiang was feverish, she had three souls and seven souls, and one soul and one soul were separated. A soul and a soul leave the body, in this place where the yin qi is strong, there will not be much feeling in itself, but once it goes out, it will fall into the root of the disease. So I went and retrieved her lost soul and let you go. But I didn't expect it to be a step too late. ā
I see.
"Anyway, thank you."
I thanked me and went back to my room.
Everything inside the inn was the same as before, and nothing was missing, but I sat here with uncontrollable anxiety.
"Listening to Lin Yu's meaning, it should be that he has recovered Sisi's soul, so he gave us the lotus lantern this morning and let us leave. But the soul is complete, why is the silk still gone? What is that black mist? ā
I didn't understand, so I searched the internet for things about Hell Town.
But there was no information.
I connected to the hotel's wireless again and made a video call to Lu Blind, but as if I made a direct call, there was always no answer.
"How could such a thing happen again? Bother! ā
I threw my phone to the side and lay on my back on the bed in frustration.
It's not safe to stay in such a weird place for a minute.
That time, I was on Huaiyin Road, in the Wang family's old house, and I almost lost my life in just one night.
This place related to the soul stays, do I still have the life to go back?
"I warned you, this month, don't go far away."
For no reason, Lou Zhi's voice appeared at the door.
The door was opened by a small gap, and he didn't come in, carrying a new lotus lamp in his hand, and just leaned against the door and talked to me.
I stared at him, pursed my lips, and didn't retort.
His instructions were a month ago, and I am a month later, how can I remember the words of an unfamiliar person?
"Rest early, don't go out tonight."
Lou Zhi didn't say anything, slammed the door shut, and left.
"Wait."
I got out of bed barefoot, chased after me, and when the door opened, the corridor outside was empty, and there was no one.
Because there were no windows on either side and it was raining heavily, it was pitch black, but the lotus lamp was hung next to my door, illuminating the small side of the world.
Only then did I realize that everything outside was dark.
It was dark and heavy, like an invisible giant hand, obscuring all the light, and the light rain turned into a heavy rain, but it did not make a sound.
It's oppressive and breathless.
I took my phone again, and this time the time on my phone had stopped and the signal was lost.
There was also no clock in the room.
I don't know what time it is, but it certainly won't be night.
But it was completely dark, and there were no fingers out of the window, and the black was like the legendary hell.
I wanted to go out, but I stopped again when I remembered Lou Zhi's words.
"He promised me that he would help me find silk, and I wouldn't make a mess."
I rubbed my hands together, didn't open the door, turned back to the bed, hugged my knees, curled to the side, looking out the window into the darkness, listening to the silenced rain.
I don't know how long later, I lay on my side on the bed and fell asleep.
Then I had a dream, I dreamed that Lou Zhi helped me bring back Jiang Si'er, and the sky outside was also bright, and he told me that I could leave.
I opened my eyes happily, the light in the dream dissipated, and in front of my eyes, it was still dark.
I don't know if the rain has stopped, there is a lotus lamp at the head of my bed, I stared at the lamp and was stunned, before I fell asleep, it was clear that there was none.
There was also a note pressed under the lamp.
It reads: Wake up, go downstairs and look for me.
"Lou Zhi?"
I got out of bed, walked to the door, and opened the door.
The corridor was still dark, but the lotus lamp by the door was not extinguished.
I picked up the lotus lamp and went downstairs.
It was dark and dreary, except for the first floor.
I walked to the front hall and saw a man sitting behind the counter.
"Lou Zhi, are you looking for me?"
Lou Zhi was reading a book, and when he heard the voice, he didn't look too much, and hooked his finger at me.
I walked over and got closer, and I found that there was not a word on the book in his hand.
He didn't turn on the headlights, only lit a lotus lamp, and the unknown light fell on the side of his face, making his already fair skin a little pale.
The shadows shrouded in the light cast onto the wall, like a huge monster.
I was shocked, and he shook my hand.
"What do you do?"
Before I could finish my sentence, I heard him ask, "Do you want to find your friend again?" ā
"Yes."
"Then endure some hardship."
"What do you mean? Do you know where she is? ā
Lou Zhi nodded, my heart was full of joy, that dream did not seem to be upside down.
"How can I find her?"
Lou Zhi didn't answer me, grabbed my hand, and with some unknown thing, pierced my fingers, and I felt pain, and I saw him squeezing blood on the book that had nothing.
Blood penetrated the thin paper, seeping and spreading out to the surroundings, and there were hidden lines that spread from the writing.
"It'sā"
Before I could read it clearly, he quickly closed the book, snapped his fingers, and the opposite door opened, and it was still stormy outside.
"What do you do?"
I asked suspiciously.
Still silent, he got up from his chair.
Turning his head sideways at me, the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a smile that was not very kind, but he said it in a very doting tone.
"Be good, endure some hardship, you can't lose your life."
"What do you mean?"
My mind was confused, but my body trembled, as if I had felt the deception of his smirk.
The next second, I was pushed out of the hotel.
The door behind him slammed and closed directly, as fast as a hot potato.
However, he was still cheering me on through the door.
"Lin Tan, come on!"
āā¦ā¦ā
[Pseudo follow-up]
Lin Tan: Lin Yu, how can you beat him?
Lin Yu: Beating is kissing and scolding is love, why bother?
