"What about the restaurant owner, did you see it that day?" Xia Zixuan said curiously.

"Nope. When the guests came out, they all collapsed outside the restaurant. But only the boss did not appear and disappeared like a ghost. The tavern owner said in a deep voice: "The tavern owner's name is Wu Hao, and he has a good relationship with me on weekdays, and I am very familiar with his appearance." He went in that night and never came out again. There was no one in the corpses outside. ”

Xia Bing asked, "That's strange, isn't it, those guests were killed by that boss?"

"I don't think it's possible, this restaurant opened by the boss is doing a prosperous business, and the money is abundant, how can he kill these people for no reason? There must be something strange in this. ”

"Why don't you wait, you take us to have a look?" Xia Bing sincerely begged the boss.

"I, I don't dare go. It's a weird place. The boss trembled and said, "You don't know." Since this incident, the lights on the opposite side have often been suddenly turned on in the middle of the night, but if you look closely, there is no one in the shadow. I wonder if it's inside... Yes. ”

As he was talking, the second floor of the restaurant in Pear Blossom Town opposite lit up.

But the scary thing is that, as the boss said, there is not a single figure in the window.

"Ah!" screamed, Xia Zixuan was immediately frightened and hid behind Xia Bing.

"No, it won't be really, there is, there's something unclean, right?" Xia Zixuan said in a trembling voice.

"Look at your little guts. Don't worry, what are you afraid of with me. Xia Bing calmly took a sip of wine.

"Boss, don't hide it, I am a Taoist priest of Qinglongguan under Xia, and I happen to be passing by here. Xia Bing casually lied, so that he could wait for the spell to be cast.

"Really? It turns out to be a Taoist master! The boss took a deep breath and said, "Actually, I've always suspected that that incident was not man-made, but something was responsible." You say, could it be that the boss on the other side was possessed by something unclean and then killed those people?"

"It's not clear. Let's go, since the light on the opposite side is on, it proves that there is something inside. Let's go and see. ”

Xia Zixuan said embarrassedly: "It's too scary, why don't you two go in and have a look, how about I wait for you here?"

"Aren't you afraid that he will come here to look for you?" Xia Bing finished speaking, and walked out directly.

Xia Zixuan was also frightened by his words and walked out, and the tavern owner also followed.

The three of them walked to the restaurant in Pear Blossom Town, and Xia Bing gently pushed the door open.

There was a "squeak", and the wooden door made a lot of noise.

Suddenly, the upstairs lights went out the moment the wooden door rang.

"Hey, that thing upstairs won't hear us coming in. The boss whispered.

Xia Bing didn't answer him, just took out a fire fold from his clothes and lit it.

In an instant, the room lit up.

Xia Bing took the lead and walked upstairs, while Xia Zixuan dragged the corner of his clothes and followed lightly.

And the boss was also trembling and following behind the two of them at the moment.

When I got to the second floor of the restaurant, there was no one at all, but there was still a half-burned candle on the candlestick on the table.

"Is there anyone there?" Xia Bing said loudly: "Whether you are pretending to be a ghost or not, come out for me now!"

However, no one answered him.

"Hey, this is too weird, isn't it? When we were chatting opposite each other just now, we saw a candle on the second floor!" The boss walked to the table and touched the candle that burned to the ordinary and said, "This candle is still hot, which proves that someone did light it just now." ”

"Boss Wu, are you not here, come out and talk to me if you are!" said the tavern keeper cautiously.

As soon as the words fell, a light woman's singing voice suddenly came from the third floor.

"Seven strings, white frost, a song, parting, a thought, the heart is slightly cold, I don't know when I will reunite, play a song, leave, evoke the wild goose chill, the rest of my life. ”

"This, is this the voice of that Boss Wu?" Xia Bing asked as he stared at the tavern owner.

Then he noticed that the tavernkeeper's legs had been shaking, and his hands had begun to tremble, and he could not speak at all.

Xia Bing patted his face and asked softly, "Hey, what's wrong with you?"

"Of course not. This can't be Wu Hao's voice, Wu Hao is a man. ”

Xia Zixuan said lightly: "That's not necessarily, some male actors can also sing women's voices, maybe that Wu Hao can sing." ”

"It's useless to say so much, just go up and take a look. With that, Xia Bing went upstairs directly.

The boss looked at him with wide eyes, and said to Xia Zixuan: "It seems that this little brother is really a Taoist chief!

"Let's go, go up with him. ”

Then, Xia Zixuan and the boss also followed.

Xia Bing was the first to go upstairs, and to his surprise, the upstairs was still empty.

And the chanting also disappeared as the three of them went upstairs.

Seeing this scene, the boss was so frightened that he stuck directly to him, and said tremblingly: "No, there won't really be anything unclean!"

"Oh my mother! This, this is too scary. Yes, or let's get out of here!" the boss shuddered.

Xia Bing ignored him, just carefully searched the third floor.

Suddenly, he saw a painting hanging on one of the walls.

Xia Bing walked a few steps quickly, walked to the front of the painting, and carefully observed it with a fire fold.

"Hey, you two come over and take a look at this painting. Xia Bing beckoned to the two of them.

Xia Zixuan took the lead and ran over and looked at the painting quietly.

The painting is about one zhang long and more than two feet wide, and there is a woman sitting on a wooden chair with a guqin in front of her, as if she was stroking the qin in the painting.

The tavern owner stretched out his finger and pointed at the woman in the painting, and said tremblingly: "This, this woman can't be the singing actor just now? You, you see, she still has a piano in her hand." ”

When Xia Zixuan heard his words, she suddenly said in a terrified manner: "Brother Xia, no, it can't really be the piano she plays, right?"

At this time, behind the rockery in the painting, a person suddenly ran out.

The tavern owner stared at the man's face carefully, and suddenly shouted like crazy: "Wu Hao!

The tavern owner seemed to be so stupid that he didn't notice how the person in the painting could suddenly run away.

He saw Wu Hao's expression was very frightened, and ran from behind the rockery to the woman's side, as if something was chasing him behind him.

He hid behind the woman who was playing the harp and hid.

"What's going on?How can the people in this painting move?!" Xia Zixuan looked at Xia Bing and asked in a low voice.

At this time, the woman who was stroking the qin suddenly turned her face and made a "shhh

At this time, a figure suddenly flashed behind the rockery.

I saw that the man was dressed in black, and his face was also the color of black, as if he had been smeared with a layer of pot ash.

Then, he walked up to the woman and asked sharply, "Have you seen that man?"

Strangely, Xia Bing and the others could also hear the voice of the man in black outside the painting.

The woman didn't pay attention to him, but stroked the strings, and a mournful sound slowly came from the painting.

Seeing that she didn't answer, the man in black seemed to be enraged, grabbed her hand stubbornly, and said viciously: "Believe it or not, I'll kill you now?!"

The woman said indifferently: "I don't believe it, you are reluctant to kill me." Kill me, who else would want to accompany you in this lonely painted world?"

"Hahaha!" The man laughed wildly, "It's a big deal, I'll find someone else to come in and accompany me." ”

"Kill me, are you willing to do it?" the woman's voice suddenly became coquettish.

The man in black was immediately itchy by her, hugged the woman and began to move his hands up and down.

Xia Zixuan hurriedly closed her eyes embarrassedly.

The tavern keeper is like a nymphomaniac, staring motionlessly at the glamorous shot.

At this moment, the woman who stroked the qin secretly waved her hand towards Wu Hao under the piano table, signaling him to flee quickly.

Wu Hao understood, and immediately rushed out and ran towards the dense woods in the distance.

"Hmm~ my little liver, your mouth is so sweet. The man in black kept kissing the woman who was playing the piano.

The woman who stroked the qin half-pushed and said, "I hate it! You let go of the people! Everyone is almost out of breath." ”

"Why?!You said let me go, but I don't!" The man in black hugged him tighter, directly letting the two bodies stick together.

Then, the entangled bodies of the two also disappeared into the painting.

"This, what's going on?" asked the tavern keeper, staring at Xia Bing with a blank expression.

Xia Bing shook his head and said, "I don't know. In short, there must be something wrong with this painting. Also, the boss named Wu Hao seems to be trapped in the painting, how can I rescue him?"

"Can you cast a spell to enter the painting and take a look?" Xia Zixuan asked.

Xia Bing shook his head and said, "Do you really think I can do anything?" I think I can only wait for the woman who strokes the qin to come back and ask, I feel that she should know what happened. ”

After a while, the woman who was playing the harp came back alone.

She held the guqin in the painting and walked out of the painting like a ghost.

"Girl, are you a human or a ghost?" said the tavernkeeper, staring at the woman in the painting with wide eyes.

"What do you say? boss. The woman looked coldly at the tavernkeeper.

"You, what did you do to Wu Hao, why is he in this painting?"

The woman tugging at the piano pulled the corners of her mouth and said, "You don't care about this, it has nothing to do with you, I advise you to be nosy." ”

Xia Bing stared at the woman in front of him and said coldly: "What do you want to do? Why do you want to trap Wu Hao in this painting? Also, did you kill all the guests in this restaurant that day?"
