Chapter 20: The Inn Changes
After a night's journey, before dawn, Qiu Hu came to the nearest inn of dead corpses, the innkeeper was a big man with a beard, and he had also taken a few face-to-face photos, and he was barely familiar with him.
The Dead Corpse Inn, also known as the Dead Corpse Shop, is a mysterious inn that only appears on the way to drive corpses, and often only lives in dead corpses and corpse chasers, and ordinary people do not live. Its doors are open all year round, for behind the two large doors is where the corpses rest. The corpse chaser drove the corpse, arrived before dawn, and quietly departed in the night, the corpses standing neatly against the wall behind the door panels. If it's hard to walk on a rainy day, stop in the store for a few days and nights.
"Master Tiger, this trip is a master?" The boss saw Qiu Hu stop the body behind the door and greeted him politely.
"By the way, the work I took for my senior brother was easy." Qiu Hu responded with a smile, walked to the table and sat down, "It's still the same as the old three." ”
"Okay." The boss said yes and turned to leave.
Qiu Hu took a cursory look around, but there were two or three peers, and there were seven or eight dead bodies parked behind the door, six on the left, and two on the right adjacent to Qiu Hu.
There are three tables of people in the store, and the two people outside are at a table, eating some meat and meat, and talking over the pot of flower wine; In the middle sat a masked man, unfed, as if he were studying some book at the table; Qiu Hu sat in the innermost, with a few white-flour steamed buns just served by the boss, two Fluttershy side dishes and a pot of tea on the table.
The two people who drank looked raw, one fat and one thin, the fat face showed a fierce face, the face was white, the thin thief eyebrows and rat eyes, and the face was yellow and thin. As for the masked man in the middle, he couldn't see his face clearly, but judging from his thick calloused palms, he must have done a good job of punching and kicking.
Under normal circumstances, unless they are acquaintances, peers often do not disturb each other and rarely talk, so Qiu Hu is ready to go to the attic to rest after simply eating the food on the table.
"This man, he looks so young."
When Qiu Hu passed by the fat and thin two, the thin man tore off the green cloth hat on his head and said something for no reason.
Qiu Hu squinted at the thin man, and saw that he had a leprosy on his head, a lot of lesions on his face, yellow teeth and black lips, and he must not be a good stubble, so he ignored it and went straight up the stairs.
The thin man didn't stop him when he saw Qiu Hu going upstairs directly, he just smiled, and rolled his eyes to the fat man Nunu's mouth: "See, I have a young spirit and a strong spirit, but I haven't seen such a quality for a long time." ”
The fat man took a big bite of meat wildly, poured a few sips of wine, and said in a stiff voice while leaving a large amount of saliva: "From the moment he first entered the door...... I can't help it, it's so fragrant......"
Hearing the fat man's slightly trembling voice, the thin man also showed a sinister smile, and the fierceness in his eyes flashed.
From beginning to end, the masked man did not say a word, nor did he make any movements, but only looked intently at the parchment scroll in his hand, as if he were not affected by the outside world in the slightest.
Qiu Hu came to the attic and found the innermost bunk to lie down. The inside of this corpse inn is generally a bunk, a flat row of seven or eight bunks, simply spread straw and then covered with a layer of bamboo mats, which is a shop.
After all, the people who do the work of chasing corpses are rough men who can endure hardships, and it is good to have a place to rest on the way to the feet, but they are not so particular.
After a while, the fat and thin two also came to the attic, and the two of them seemed to be drunk, and fell asleep on the bunk, and the fat one occupied two bunks, and in a moment there was a thunderous snoring.
Qiu Hu naturally didn't sleep, lying on his side and hiding a dagger in his arms at all times, this is a habit he has developed in the past two years, he never really sleeps in the inn, even if everyone sleeps, he just pretends to sleep. Because the master said, don't trust any peers you don't know, and don't fall asleep next to other people easily. After all, the corpse chaser knows the corpse chaser best, and once he has evil thoughts, he is often unprepared and dies.
For the two people just now, Qiu Hu was already on guard in his heart, in addition to the dagger in his arms, there was also a talisman bag that he could take at hand, and there were several life-saving talismans given by the master in it.
The two seemed to be asleep until noon, and the masked man sat downstairs and did not come up.
When they arrived, the two of them were still snoring, but the thin man had already gotten up, pretended to snore, squatted under the bed and lit a black incense, and then covered himself and the fat man who was still asleep, and went down again.
Qiu Hu saw all this in his eyes, and snorted coldly in his heart, do you really think of me as a chick who has just graduated from school? This little trick also wants to harm me.
Qiu Hu silently took out a folded fresh spell and put it in his mouth, and continued to pretend to sleep, he wanted to see what methods these two people had, after all, this was the first time he had met a villain, and he was a little excited in his heart.
Half an hour later, the two stopped snoring, laid their feet lightly, and walked towards Qiu Hu.
Qiu Hu continued to pretend to be asleep, but in fact, he was ready to launch a surprise attack at any time.
"Old arsenic, this kid is already asleep, let's do it directly." The fat man's eyes lit up, and there was already a piece of hazel on his mouth.
"Smell this qi and blood, it's really fragrant, I'll cut his throat quickly later, you cover his mouth, hug him tightly, don't let him make a big noise." The thin man held a scimitar in his hand and gradually approached Qiu Hu.
The thin man came behind Qiu Hu, the scimitar in his hand quietly approached Qiu Hu's neck, and then raised his hand to prepare, only to see Qiu Hu turn around violently, and the dagger in his hand stabbed out instantly, directly submerging all of it into the thin man's chest, and then supported the shop with one hand, and swept the fat man's temple with a whip leg.
Between the lightning and the fire, the thin man clutched his chest and took a few steps back, with horror in his eyes; The fat man directly smashed through the floor, flew out of the attic and fell, smashed several tables in an instant, rolled to the side and spewed blood.
Qiu Hu stepped forward again, grabbed the dagger on the thin man's chest, pulled it out with a "swish", brought up a burst of blood, punched him in the neck in his scream, flew directly down the attic, and landed next to the fat man.
Qiu Hu stood in the attic, looking at the two people who were tumbling on the ground downstairs and gushing blood, his chest rose and fell slightly, and his eyes were full of excitement.
