Chapter 184: Secret room

Views:

"The deceased is reborn, and his back to the grave!"

The blue veins on the face of the proprietress Junxiu were violent, and it was obvious that the pain in her left arm had distorted her, but she still gritted her teeth and said these eight obscure words.

Xu Lang walked to her, frowned, and read these eight words carefully.

It is not difficult to understand the rebirth of the deceased, but the back to the grave has never heard of it, and I don’t know what it means.

Xu Lang didn't quite understand whether this was a plan that the proprietress wanted to cover up.

This kind of dull eight words sounds like very valuable, but now they are equivalent to nonsense, and they are of no use to the executors.

Xu Lang lowered his eyebrows for some thought, and then directly pointed out the topic: "Are you from Taohua Village?"

As soon as this remark came out, the other people in the room were immediately surprised.

The boss’s words have left the executives confused, and Xu Lang’s questions seem to be too leapfrog.

Xu Lang didn't care about other people's reactions, but stared at the boss's wife without moving, trying to find out what changes would happen to her face.

But Xu Lang was disappointed.

The lady boss was holding her arms, she didn't look at him at all, as if she became dumb after saying that.

Xu Lang frowned, walked forward, looked at the beautiful face of the proprietress and said, "You planned everything that happened before. Can you explain it?"

The lady boss looked at Xu Lang as if she hadn't heard at all, and turned her head to the other side.

Xu Lang straightened up slowly, took out the dagger that had always been hidden from behind, and the cold blade was attached to the boss's cheek.

"I don't know why you opened a hotel here, but it must have your purpose. If I burn this place down, I don't know if you will feel heartache."

Upon hearing this, the lady boss finally stopped pretending to be deaf and dumb, and shook her head quickly: "No! Don't destroy this place!"

Xu Lang raised her collar and said viciously: "Then I ask you, why are you planning all this?"

"I... ... "

There was a line of tears on the face of the lady boss, it looked pitiful, but Xu Lang didn't have the slightest appeasement and softheartedness in her heart.

He looked at her behavior coldly, waiting for her answer.

"Someone forced me to do this..."

Xu Lang looked at her without saying a word.

The proprietress began to squat down and sobbed, "If I don't obey their arrangements, they will also burn this inn. This is the only thing my parents left for me. I must not lose it."

Then she pulled Xu Lang's sleeves in a panic, and begged in a low voice: "You go quickly, never come to this place, let alone go into the mountains, this is not where you should be!"

How could Xu Lang manage these at this time. He ignored the proprietress’s pleading and whispered: "Who forced you to do this?"

"I... I can't say!

I only know that they want me to introduce guests into the mountains, consciously or unconsciously, and reveal to them that the mountains are a paradise, but...everyone who enters, no one will come back again!

I didn't dare to defy them, I could only pretend to be evil spirits, scare the guests away, and then lied that no one came to stay in the hotel. "

Xu Lang lowered his eyebrows to ponder the truth of what she said.

**The proprietress of Pear Flower with Rain is like a peach blossom wet by rain, and looks pitiful.

Behind him, Rong Chuan couldn't bear to see the boss's wife. He stepped forward to Xu Lang's side and whispered, "I didn't expect that she would have such difficulties, or let it go."

Xu Lang frowned slightly when he heard this and glanced at Rong Chuan, feeling very dissatisfied.

But this is not the time to teach him, Xu Lang looked at the boss's wife and asked: "What do you mean by the eight words you said before?"

The proprietress was already in a knowing attitude at this time, and hurriedly replied: "I don't know what it means, but the group of people in the mountain came here to talk once, and I overheard it.

I pretended to pretend to be mysterious and shocking to make you retreat. I didn’t expect...

You should go, the people there... it's terrible! "

Xu Lang nodded thoughtfully, and then asked: "Where is your secret room? If we want us to trust you, at least you have to show some sincerity."

The lady boss, stretched out her hand on the lamp beside the bed and pulled the sling.

Then a wooden board fell down beside the bed, and a darkly low entrance was revealed. Xu Lang probed a glance at the oil lamps hanging on the stone walls on both sides of the inside.

Obviously this is where the secret path lies.

Xu Lang looked at the appearance of the boss's wife, and asked casually: "What is your name?"

The lady boss raised her head and whispered: "Chen Wenjin."

Xu Lang, who had nothing to ask, raised his head towards Wuming.

Then an anonymous hand knife hit Chen Wenjin's head unexpectedly, and she fell to the ground, lying on her head as if she was asleep.

But Rong Chuan couldn't bear it at this time, and he deliberately stepped forward to cover her with a quilt.

Xu Lang glanced at him, did not stop, and said to Wuming: "Let's go down and take a look."

Wuming nodded, then winked at the rest of the executors behind, and the six of them led to the secret path together.

The steps of the secret road are still very clean, but there are still patches of wet footprints, which are obviously left by Chen Wenjin just now.

Wuming took the lead, walking at the front of the team, and while walking forward, he said to Xu Lang, "How much do you think Chen Wenjin can believe?"

Xu Lang sneered: "There are so many lies and loopholes, you can't believe it!"

After saying this, he turned his head to look at Rong Chuan, and said coldly: "In the future, you will use your brain to speak and do things. Don't abuse your sympathy in unknown circumstances!"

Rong Chuan seemed a little unconvinced: "Why do you say that?"

Xu Lang walked down while answering his questions: "In Chen Wenjin's words, people in Taohua Village seem to be demons who cannibalize people without spitting out bones, soliciting passing tourists and coaxing them into the mountains.

And her hotel is a channel to attract tourists.

Chen Wenjin kept saying that she pretended to be an evil spirit in order to scare away tourists, so as not to be killed by Taohua Village people, but since Taohua Village people forced her to do this kind of thing, why was she given such a high degree of freedom.

There is no supervision, and she is totally dependent on her.

Don't you think this makes no sense logically? "

Rong Chuan was speechless for a while, "Are you saying that Chen Wenjin and the Taohuacun people are in the same group?"

Xu Lang nodded: "Recall it carefully. In the previous conversation, we didn't mention going into the deep mountain at all, but Chen Wenjin kept preventing us from entering the mountain, saying how terrible it was.

She kept warning us not to go into the mountains, but she was really worried that we would not go!

The only time I tried her before was to say the name of Taohuacun. Although her expression did not change in any way, she was a little panicked from her subsequent words.

Editing is not round anymore, so we can only use another way to let us enter Taohua Village! "

Rong Chuan asked subconsciously: "What method?"

Xu Lang smiled slightly, "Guide, before we put forward the theory, she began to instill the concept of deep mountains and peach blossom villages in us, and let us have interest and associations with them.

But one thing, she definitely didn't lie.

That is, Taohua Village must be extremely dangerous! "

At this time, Wuming inserted a sentence: "Chen Wenjin's kung fu, judging from the strength of that pin, she can't do it for ten or eight years without training. She will definitely not be that simple.

Rong Chuan swallowed and stopped talking.

Xu Lang took a long breath and said, "However, whether Chen Wenjin is playing tricks or not, we must enter Taohua Village!"

The stairs of the secret path have been completely completed, and at this time all of them came to the secret room.

There are smooth stone walls on both sides, and it seems that there are already some ideas in this place.

The more he walked inside, the more gloomy he felt in Xu Lang's heart.

He looked around, not sure if this was the horrible breath or because of the underground temperature insulation.

Especially in that deep place, there seems to be a separate ear chamber in front of it. What will be inside

Xu Lang pointed his finger: "Let's go there and check it!"

Everyone also felt something was wrong in the front, and Huang Hui shrank with Gu Chunxia tremblingly at the end. They didn't understand why these people knew that there was something abnormal in the front, but they still wanted to go in.

The anxiety in John's heart is much better than that of the two of them.

Because of his previous performance in the room, he was very unbearable.

Especially after knowing that everything was pretended by Chen Wenjin, his face was even more ugly.

Originally vowed to exorcise the demon, but he did not expect that an evil spirit pretending to be a living person would almost disperse him.

Rong Chuan is the best performer among these newcomers.

But it is also what Xu Lang dislikes most.

For newcomers, those who can do no bad things are generally considered good, and newcomers like Rong Chuan who have independent thinking are even more rare.

But he is a good person with a pure heart who is completely unaware of his current situation!

Good man, in this hell, there is hardly any good end, and he is not even sure what kind of performance Rong Chuan will do next.

In case, something goes wrong with him, then Xu Lang can only...

The performance of the newcomers has all been put in Xu Lang's eyes, but these thoughts have not caused any change in his expression.

Not long after, that ear chamber has completely appeared in front of the performers.

Xu Lang took out the lighter, lit all the oil lamps on the wall, and the indoor scene was fully revealed for a while.

It is a wall, and there are compartments on the wall.

There are a variety of objects on it, including embroidered shoes, dustpans, needle red thread, and some manual sewing machines.

Some have been completely eliminated by the modern world, and it is usually difficult to see all kinds of things.

Xu Lang's gaze fell on a compartment in the middle of the wall.

There is an incense burner there, and the three fragrances are still smoking, apparently someone was here not long ago.

And behind the incense burner, there are two spiritual positions.

On the wooden spirit plate, the father Chen Huayu and the mother Chen Lingyun are engraved.

And right next to their spiritual position, there were two palm-sized scarecrows!

Wearing brown coarse cloth clothes, with sesame-sized stitch eyes, staring at Xu Lang!

After Xu Lang took a look, he only felt that his scalp was tingling, and he faintly felt that the backpack at the back was heavier... (End of this chapter)
