Chapter 2 The Town
Lan Ting didn't find the No. 1 room in Tianzi, but he had to sleep. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Confucius said: If you don't sleep at night, you will collapse tomorrow. He took Qi Chu to the best inn in the town, the town was not big, the inn was even smaller, small and broken, there were six holes in the door panel, the words on the plaque were no longer legible, there was a bone on the ground, and a dog was eating with relish.
Qi Chu looked sideways slightly: "This is the best inn?"
Lan Ting replied firmly: "Not only the best, but also not one, because there is only one inn." ”
"This is clearly the worst one. Qi Chu squatted down and touched the dog, but the puppy roared twice.
They are all right, because in the eyes of optimists and pessimists, the world is completely different.
Qi Chu looked at the puppy carefully, "I suddenly want to eat dog meat." ”
Streamer Boy has always played cards out of common sense, so no one can really understand him. Lan Ting was stunned for a moment, "Actually, I'm also hungry for dog meat." "He smiled innocently and cutely, because he was a fourteen-year-old.
Qi Chu grabbed the dog's hair, and the puppy wanted to pounce on him with a fierce look, but he pressed the puppy to the ground with a slight force, and the power in his body was transmitted to the palm, and the puppy couldn't resist, and suddenly feces and urine flowed together.
"See? This beast, like a human, is a bully and fears of the hard, and has no backbone at all when it meets someone stronger than it. Qi Chu let go of his hand, and the puppy's feet were weak, and he lay on the ground shivering.
"Don't eat it anymore?" Lan Ting was a little disappointed
"This dog is too old to eat. But he still walked into the inn with his dog, and there was not even a man at the counter.
Lan Ting hurriedly ran in, "The guest room is on the second floor. ”
"How much is a night?" Qi Chu looked around, the seemingly ordinary inn was not badly decorated.
"Don't want money. ”
"You're fooling the boss under my name again. Qi Chu said with a smile.
"This time there really isn't, the boss said that the business has been too good recently, and the room price is not bad for this night. ”
"Oh, interesting boss, businessmen are the better the business, the higher the price, the lower the price when the market is bleak, it seems that we have met a master. ”
"This place doesn't even have a name, where are there any masters?"
"You're wrong, the more places like this, the more people there are. Qi Chu walked up to the second floor, there were not many guest rooms, he had the ability to listen to all directions, but he found that there was no one in all the rooms, and said in his heart: Didn't the boss say that business was good? It seems that Lan Ting is deceiving people again.
"Childe will live in this room. Lan Ting pointed, and Qi Chu walked up, "Didn't I say that I would live in the No. 1 room of Tianzi?"
"But there really isn't. ”
"You haven't tried to say no?"
"I've been looking for two hours, and I'm not working hard?"
"That's if you don't want to find it, if you want to, you can find it. ”
Although Lan Ting is young, he has a big temper, "Then you can show me!"
Qi Chu stroked the door frame with his index finger, slowly but quite methodically, "Look at what this is?"
Lan Ting leaned in to take a look, and there were five more words on the door frame - Tianzi No. 1 room.
"You, you scoundrel!"
Qi Chu blew away the sawdust on his fingers, "I said, if you want to find it, you can definitely find it." ”
He pushed open the door in a dashing manner, but stopped as soon as he stepped in. There aren't many things that can surprise the streamer, but tonight it appeared.
The room is resplendent with gold, like a royal palace and a dream. It's not easy to find an inn in a town like this that doesn't even have a name, and although it has six holes in its door, it just needs to sleep. Qi Chu originally thought so, but when he pushed open the door of the guest room, he was stunned. It's incredible that it's such a humble inn on the outside, but so luxurious on the inside. But there are good things that are better than bad ones.
Qi Chu lay on the soft and comfortable bed, sniffing the ambergris wafting from the incense burner, and fell asleep after a while.
The night is as cool as water, the wind sweeps over the earth like a ghost, and there is such a legend a long time ago: every year on the first day of October on the Winter Clothes Festival, people have to burn five-colored clothes to send warm clothes to their deceased relatives. And those lonely ghosts who have no relatives will come out of hell at this time to compete for the five-colored clothes, and the ghosts who can't grab them will have resentment, and if the resentment is too heavy, they will attach themselves to the living person, and finally the living person will become a puppet and kill people everywhere. A golem is a creature between a man and a ghost, and it cannot be killed, but it will not continue to harm people until it is burned to ashes by fire.
The dark clouds in the night sky cast huge shadows, as if a bloody mouth was about to devour everything in the world. Outside the inn, a person walked slowly, to be precise, it shouldn't be a person, because people have shadows, it doesn't!
The thing walked into the inn and walked up the stairs step by step, silently, the wind outside the house was still blowing, and for a moment it suddenly stopped!
Upstairs, you can't see your fingers, but you can vaguely see that it has a pair of long ears, like dog ears. It raised its hand and pushed the door open, the room was even darker, and its gaze fell on Qi Chu's bed, which was a cannibalistic gaze, fierce, greedy, and evil.
At this time, the air froze, and Qi Chu's faint breathing became the loudest sound in heaven and earth. The thing with dog ears rushed over without hesitation, grabbed it and grabbed the bed, it didn't have a knife in its hand, people only use knives to kill, ghosts don't use to kill!
Blood flowed out of the quilt, and in the cold night, the blood was steaming, and the person in the quilt did not resist and was obviously dead. Whoever encounters a ghost will probably not survive.
It turned around with satisfaction, put its bloodstained hand in front of its nose and sniffed it, its expression was intoxicated, the moonlight was faint, but it still saw its face clearly, it was a human face!
Ghosts have faces, ghosts have ghost hearts, and ghost hearts are vicious!
People have faces, people have hearts, and people's hearts are unpredictable!
The wind rises.
It walked out of the house and down the stairs, but there was a man sitting downstairs.
Lan Ting has sweat on his head, and he will sweat on such a cold day?
"You killed my son-in-law!" his voice was calm. Maybe I'm scared to death, after all, it's a little creepy to look at things that aren't human, ghosts and ghosts.
It didn't answer, but its eyes were greedy and confused, and it looked at Lan Ting with salivation.
"You killed Streamer Child!" Lan Ting stood up, clenched his fists, but didn't dare to move.
"You want to avenge him?" It can actually speak human words? Everyone can see people talk about human things, and ghosts talk nonsense, why can't ghosts?
"It has nothing to do with me whether he dies or not, it's just that I'll be working for him for a year soon, and if he dies, who will give me the reward of 100,000 taels?" Lan Ting said human words, but it didn't sound like it, there was a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
