"Yeah?"
Tianyang smiled and said, "Then can you give me a discount for an outsider like me?"
"Of course there is." The woman said, and called a waiter, asked him to serve Tianyang, and gave Tianyang a 50% discount.
As soon as the voice fell, someone in the men's pants said, "Boss lady, what about us?"
"We are old customers. We can't just get discounts for new customers."
At a table not far from Tianyang, there were three men looking over here.
As expected, it was the woman who owned the Hyacinth Inn. She smiled and said, "Okay, okay, 50% off for all items today. Is that okay?"
The door of the restaurant was pushed open at this time, and a man and a woman who looked like a couple came in with a bit of moisture.
They were all drenched by the rain, and even their hair was constantly dripping with water.
Among them, the young wife sneezed.
The proprietress immediately took out a thin blanket from behind the counter and gave it to the couple, saying, "Wipe it off quickly, don't catch a cold."
The husband took the blanket with thanks and wrapped it around his wife, not forgetting to wipe her hair.
After Tian Yang ordered the dishes, he heard the proprietress say, "You two seem to be strangers. Are you from somewhere else too?"
The husband nodded and said, "The boss lady has a good eye. Yes, my husband and I just arrived at your castle today."
"The fortress we lived in was destroyed by the black tide, and we have been wandering in the wilderness. Not long ago, we heard that there was a fortress here that was not destroyed by the black tide, so we came here to find it."
"I didn't expect that you guys weren't affected by the black tide at all."
The lady boss laughed and said, "We are located deep in the mountains, with a forest behind us, and we are not very big, so we luckily escaped."
"Please take a seat. I'll ask the kitchen to bring you two bowls of ginger soup. Drink it first to warm your bodies before ordering."
The husband said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Madam, we don't have anything valuable on us."
"Look, can I buy it on credit?"
"Or maybe, if you're short of people, I can do anything."
The lady boss smiled and said, "It's okay. Everyone has difficult times. Just take your time."
"This meal is on my table."
"You guys should settle down here first, then get a job, and then come and patronize our shop more often in the future."
"Thank you so much, Madam Boss."
Tianyang glanced at the young couple, smiled, took out a small piece of gold from his pocket and put it on the table: "How can I let the boss lady lose money?"
"I paid for them. In addition, the cost of their stay in the hotel until they find a job will be deducted here."
"Boss lady, take a look, this should be enough, right?"
The proprietress was stunned for a moment, but she didn't refuse. She picked it up, weighed it and said, "That's enough. Sir, you are so kind."
"No, it's the boss lady who is kind-hearted. May I know what her name is?" Tianyang looked at the bright woman.
The lady boss said shyly, "Sir, you can call me 'Yixin'."
Tianyang nodded: "Ms. Yixin."
The proprietress chuckled and said, "I am not married yet."
Tian Yang immediately changed his words: "Ms. Yi Xin."
The proprietress then went downstairs.
The couple came over again, thanked Tianyang, and introduced themselves.
The man's name is Linda and the woman's name is Zheng Yao.
After a while, the dish came up. Tianyang tasted it and it tasted pretty good.
After the meal, the rain had stopped. Tianyang left the hotel and walked around the city, as if he was afraid that people in the city didn't know he was a outsider.
But until the evening, when Tianyang returned, he did not notice anything unusual.
I didn't feel Chi Yi's 'gaze'. However.
Tianyang was not without gain.
He discovered that there was something strange about the fortress.
He holds the essence of the recorder's 'civilization', and can use this essence to understand the origin of a place.
But when he used this essence to understand that he was in the fortress, he found that the origin of this fortress could only be traced back to a few days ago.
Further ahead, there is a "fog". I don't know whether it was caused by Chi Yi's interference or some other reason that made it impossible to trace the source.
No matter how.
Since it cannot be traced back to its source, it means that there is something strange about this fortress, and it also means that the probability that Chi Yi is hiding here is extremely high.
After dinner, Tianyang returned to his room, behaved like a normal person, took a shower and went to bed.
Of course, although he closed his eyes, Tianyang did not sleep, but was constantly analyzing the nature of the two universes outside the gate.
I don’t know how long it took.
Suddenly, a scream rang out.
Tianyang woke up suddenly, got out of bed and opened the door.
Then I saw a person running towards the end of the corridor. It was one of the young couple from noon. The young wife Zheng Yao ran over.
"Sir, help, sir!"
Zheng Yao's hair was disheveled and her face was pale.
There were spots of bright red blood on his clothes, and it looked as if something had just happened.
Tianyang looked at her and asked, "What happened?"
"Murder..."
Zheng Yao shouted: "They killed my husband, Linda... Linda is dead!"
Tianyang narrowed his eyes slightly: "Speak slowly."
Just then, someone walked in from the stairs.
It was the proprietress Yi Xin and two waiters.
"What's wrong? I heard a scream. Did something happen?" Yi Xin asked with concern.
Zheng Yao pointed at her and said, "It was her. I saw her kill Linda!"
"I was taking a shower just now and heard a strange noise, so I came out to check it out."
"I saw her lying in bed with Linda, and I thought Linda was having an affair with her, but when I looked closely, I found that this woman had killed Linda!"
"She even took out Linda's heart and ate it in front of me!"
Yi Xin was shocked and said, "How is this possible?"
"Ms. Zheng Yao, are you having a nightmare?"
"How could I do such a horrible thing?"
The two waiters also laughed and discussed in a low voice.
"Did she fall asleep?"
"She's not stupid, she's just jealous that our boss lady is prettier than her, right?"
Zheng Yao yelled, "I didn't lie!"
Yi Xin said with a wronged look on her face: "Ms. Zheng, if I really killed your husband, I should still be in your room."
"But I came out of my own room, they can testify to that."
The two waiters nodded.
"Yes, we can testify."
"We heard the shouting and went to look for the landlady. We saw her come out of her room with our own eyes."
Zheng Yao said, "You guys opened the hotel. Who knows if you guys did anything in the hotel, such as opening up some secret passages or something."
"Besides, she is your boss's wife. You must be in the same group."
Zheng Yao looked at Tian Yang: "Sir, we are all outsiders, you must trust me."
"They must be trying to murder us outsiders!"
Tian Yang raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Let's go to your room and take a look first."
That's what he thought.
Outsiders were killed.
It may be related to Chi Yi.
Chi Yi had noticed that there were outsiders in the fortress, so he began to clean them up.
It’s just that it didn’t find me at the beginning.
Instead, they targeted Linda and his wife, who were also outsiders.
If this matter is indeed related to Chi Yi, then there must be clues on Linda's body.
"I, I don't dare to go."
Zheng Yao looked frightened and shrank behind Tianyang.
Tianyang patted her shoulder: "You don't have to go in."
Zheng Yao then nodded.
They walked towards the young couple's room, and before they reached the door, they saw a man walking out.
Linda!
The man who was dead and had his heart dug out in Zheng Yao's mouth now looked at his wife in confusion.
"Yaoyao, what's wrong with you?"
"Why did you suddenly run outside? I couldn't stop you even when I called you."
"This?" Zheng Yao was stunned.
The two waiters snorted and said.
"See? I said she was sleeping stupidly, right?"
"Your husband is fine, but you insist on saying he's dead and even involve the boss's wife."
Zheng Yao shook her head, looked at Tian Yang and said, "That's not the case, sir, that's not the case!"
"I saw with my own eyes that the boss lady leaned over him and dug out his heart."
"This is definitely not Linda, this is definitely not her, you have to believe me, believe me!"
She grabbed Tianyang's arm tightly, fearing that Tianyang would not believe her.
Linda said angrily: "Zheng Yao, do you know what you are talking about?"
"How could I die when I was fine? And the boss lady dug my heart out? What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Stop messing around, you're making a fool of yourself. Come back with me!"
He reached out to pull Zheng Yao.
Zheng Yao screamed in fear: "Don't touch me, you are not Linda! You are not my husband!"
She hugged Tianyang's arm: "Sir, please, don't let him take me away."
Tian Yang, however, was as hard-hearted as a rock. He took her hand away and said, "Miss, it's getting late."
"If you don't sleep, I still want to sleep."
"Please stop messing around and go back with your husband."
The tears in Zheng Yao's eyes suddenly welled up: "No, no."
"He's not Linda, I'm not crazy, why don't you believe me!"
While apologizing to Tianyang and the proprietress, Linda carried his wife on his back and took her back to the room even though she struggled and made a fuss.
The corridor finally became quiet.
Yi Xin breathed a sigh of relief, Wen smiled and said to Tian Yang: "Go to bed early, sir."
Tianyang nodded and said, "You too."
Then go back to your room.
In the room of the young couple.
Zheng Yao was thrown back onto the bed.
She reached out and pressed on the bed to use the force to prop herself up, and suddenly felt her palms get wet.
Looking down, she saw the body of her husband Linda lying beside her. There was a hole in the chest and the heart was missing.
"How is this going?"
Zheng Yao looked at Lin Da standing in front of the bed, then looked at her husband lying on the bed, unable to distinguish between illusion and reality.
Then I heard Linda standing in front of the bed say, "Don't waste my time. I'm very busy."
"After dealing with you, we have to deal with another outsider."
"So, just lie down there obediently."
"I promise you won't feel any pain, just like your husband."
Zheng Yao's pupils dilated slightly.
This is the voice of the proprietress of the 'Hyacinth' Inn!
