Chapter 345: The Inn Continues
"Crunch-" "Squeak-" "Squeak-" "Squeak-" "......"
On the fourth floor, in the corridor, the lanterns are swaying, and there is no wind to automatic, making a squeaky sound.
At the entrance of the corridor, a rickety old and thin figure slowly walked out of the entrance of the corridor, leaning over, carrying a lantern, and his face was almost attached to the lantern, with a thin face, sunken eye sockets, empty eyes, and gray hair, it was the old woman who had arranged for Lin Tianqi and the three of them to stay before, carrying the lantern and walking up from the entrance of the building.
The old woman walked like a breeze, silently, and her footsteps stepped on the ground without the slightest sound.
Leaning over and taking what looked like a very stumbling step, the old woman finally walked to the door of a room in the middle of the corridor, and shone a lantern on the door, her thin face was raised, and her originally empty eyes slowly revealed a humanized brilliance: "The first." The old woman's chapped lips moved, and the corners of her mouth lifted slightly, revealing a strange and sinister smile.
As he spoke, he slowly took out a small palm-sized copper bell from his arms, held the copper bell in his left hand and a lantern in his right hand, and began to close his eyes and whisper obscure incantations.
"Jingle Bell.... Jingle bell.... Jingle ....."
The old woman began to chant the incantation against the door, and the bell in her hand began to shake with the crunch of jingling bells.
If there is a cultivator here, you will definitely be able to hear that this is a soul mantra, and if you chant the mantra and shake the soul bell, you can detain the soul of the deceased.
"Jingle bell... Jingle bell.... Jingle ....."
The crisp sound of the copper bell sounded, incomparably crisp, echoing in the silent corridor, as if with an indescribable magic, moving the soul.
But after shaking for a while, the old woman suddenly stopped, opened her eyes, and showed a hint of doubt in a pair of cloudy and hollow eyes in the sunken eye sockets.
Looking at the door, the brows on his thin face were also wrinkled, as if he had encountered something unexpected.
After a deep groan, the old woman put away the copper bell and stretched out her hand to push the door, as if she was going to push the door open to see the situation inside, but at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
"Bang!"
Suddenly a loud noise came from behind the door, it felt like someone kicked the door from behind the door, the old woman seemed to be startled by the sudden loud noise, the whole rickety body trembled, raised her head to look at the door, but only had time for her pupils to contract violently, the door frame of the door broke suddenly, and the door flew straight out.
"Boom!" The old woman didn't even have time to react, and her body was directly hit by the door that flew out, and she flew directly out and smashed on the wall behind her, making a loud noise.
"Bang!" There was a sound, and the door that flew out fell to the ground, and the old woman was stuck to the wall behind her with her whole body, looking like the whole person had smashed into the wall, her face was even more bruised, and some of the skin was directly cracked, oozing blood, and it looked like her head was bleeding, and it was extremely miserable.
One of his empty eyes was even more stunned, like that, as if he was stunned.
It seems to be wondering how this door could suddenly fly out.
"Ah, old man, are you alright? ”
Immediately afterwards, a surprised voice sounded, the old woman came back to her senses, raised her head and looked ahead, and saw Lin Tianqi's figure standing at the door, looking at him with a surprised expression.
Seeing Lin Tianqi appear, the old woman's eyes froze again, and her empty eyes showed shock and disbelief.
Lin Tianqi saw the look in the old woman's eyes, and a hint of banter flashed in his eyes, but his face did not show it, and he pretended to be surprised.
"I'm sorry old man, just now I was sleeping downstairs and heard a sound from above, noisy and couldn't sleep, so I came up to see, but I didn't expect to enter this room after the door suddenly closed somehow, pulled a few times and didn't open, just kicked a kick, the strength is a little big, I didn't expect your old man to be outside the door, how about it, your old man's body is fine, nothing is wrong. ”
Lin Tianqi looked at the old man with a concerned look and said.
"Click!"
As a result, as soon as his words fell, the thumb-sized bamboo pole in the old man's hand that was used to pick up the lantern broke directly from the middle, and the lantern fell to the ground.
"Old man, your lantern has dropped. ”
Lin Tianqi smiled, with a harmless smile on his face.
The old man raised his head, looked at him deeply, then bowed down to pick up the lantern on the ground, and left without saying a word.
This time, however, the old woman's steps were more staggering than before, for she had limped when she walked.
Lame!
Lin Tianqi couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth when he looked at the back of the old woman walking towards the entrance of the building, and a hint of banter flashed in his eyes.
Then he turned his head to look at the room he had entered earlier, and in the dimly lit room, a broken mirror and a clump of long black woman's hair were faintly visible on the bedside dresser.
"See how many tricks you can play. ”
Lin Tianqi raised his eyebrows, withdrew his gaze from the room, and walked towards the entrance of the building.
After a while, he returned to the third floor, and as soon as he returned to the door of his room, the doors of Li Qiang and Fang Ming next to him opened.
"Mr. Lin" "Mr. Lin"
Li Qiang and Fang Ming walked out of the room, saw Lin Tianqi coming back from outside, thought that something had happened except = , and asked nervously.
"You didn't hear a sound just now?"
Lin Tianqi asked when he saw the appearance of the two.
When the two of them heard this, they looked at each other suspiciously: "What sound?" both shook their heads in confusion.
Li Qiang and Fang Ming are both you look at me, I look at you, with a look of surprise, the two of them didn't hear any sound in the room just now, and only now did they open the door and come out to take a look when they heard Lin Tianqi's footsteps coming back, and they didn't find the slightest other sound before.
But then, the two of them were suddenly startled and noticed the problem, since Lin Tianqi came back from outside, how did Lin Tianqi go out just now, and why didn't the two hear a sound.
As soon as they thought of this, Li Qiang and Fang Ming's expressions changed, both of them were also vigilant people, and they immediately realized the problem, they were in the room just now, but they were always alert.
"Mr. Lin?"
The two looked at Lin Tianqi with solemn eyes.
Lin Tianqi's expression also moved slightly, judging from Li Qiang and Fang Ming's answers, the two of them didn't hear the sound just now, so obviously, the two of them should have been cut off from hearing by something just now, maybe they were isolated from hearing outside, similar to the spells of chaotic facial features.
"Mr. Lin, is something wrong?"
Seeing that Lin Tianqi didn't speak for a while, Li Qiang and Fang Ming couldn't help but be more solemn and cautious, and looked at Lin Tianqi and asked.
"It's okay, don't worry too much, just take what I gave you, and I'll tell you something. ”
Lin Tianqi waved his hand and said to the two.
"Okay, let's go back to our room and continue to rest. ”
Li Qiang and Fang Ming glanced at each other, although they still had many questions in their hearts, but when they heard Lin Tianqi's words, they still nodded, chose to believe Lin Tianqi, and turned around to go back to the room, but at this moment, in the hall on the first floor downstairs, they heard a few voices coming.
"Is there anyone?" "Is there anyone staying at the hotel""...."
Several voices of men and women came from downstairs.
"Anyone else?"
Li Qiang and Fang Ming, who were just about to return to the room, couldn't help but stop when they heard the words, and they were a little surprised, and Lin Tianqi's expressions also moved.
"Ahh
"Ah, dead old woman, you want to scare people to death. ”
Soon, the screams of women and the angry scolding of men were heard downstairs.
Li Qiang and Fang Ming glanced at each other, and then looked at Lin Tianqi.
