The guest house is very empty. Room 5 is usually occupied by the owner of the guest house. Usually, if there are too many guests and can’t live, he will temporarily move to room 2 where the sundries are placed, or simply go to the village chief’s house for one night.
Guo Dasan told me that the owner of this guest house was named Dawancha. He was an orphan. There was a flood of water every year. Dawancha’s parents were washed away by the flood. He died and hung on a tree branch and was rescued. After he came down, he was adopted and raised by the village chief, but he was still known as his uncle and nephew in name.
The village gave him this guest house, of course, to take care of his livelihood. He can't make a lot of money, and he doesn't need to worry about the small money for food.
The first time I saw a big bowl of tea, I was a little surprised. His mouth was much bigger than the average person. In Guo Dashan’s words, it was like a hippopotamus, and when he drank water, he would always make a'gut.' Long, the sound of ‘gulong’, and that’s how the name ‘big bowl of tea’ came from.
"Hey, brother, change the room. Tonight we will sleep in room 3." Guo Dasan has known Dawancha since he was a child.
"Then you need to add money, there are three more shops in Room 3." Big Bowl of Tea said.
"What's the extra money? Or the two of us sleep in the same room. Did you forget how I helped you?" Guo Dasan took over the family's grocery store very early. Although he didn't make any money, he didn't pay less. The big bowl of tea helps fill up his stomach with some instant noodles. Seeing that he is pitiful, he opens one eye and closes the other, and rarely charges the big bowl of tea.
"Okay, all good brothers, count you cheaper." Big bowl of tea said with some disappointment.
"Haha, hell, I have never seen you so generous." Guo Dasan laughed and clapped his hands.
"My uncle is getting older and will soon retreat from the position of the village party secretary. This guest house is originally a collective property, and I must give up the house too. By that time, I will have no jobs and livelihoods." The more tea she talked about, the more sad she was, in that frown.
"What are you afraid of, you really can't go to the tomb with me." Guo Dasan has two major hobbies, one is to go to college, and the other is to robber the tomb. Although for the latter hobby, he has only said but not done so far. But I was very fascinated in my heart, so two people were sent to join him on this thief ship.
"Okay! Go!" When the big bowl of tea slapped the table, Guo Dashan shuddered in fright. He had never seen a big bowl of tea with such courage.
"Really! I won't do this guesthouse anymore. I have to leave it under the fence all day long. I still have to worry about it. Quit it! Quit it!" The big bowl of tea seems to be determined to mix with Guo Dashan. Guo Dashan was caught off guard, he quickly pointed at me and said: "He is my elder brother, you ask him if he agrees!".
"Agree, why don't you agree." I readily agreed. Now that the master is missing and the senior brother Zhao Dachuan is dead again, it is the time to hire people.
"Cough!" "Cough cough cough!"
"puff!"
I couldn’t stop coughing again. This time the cough was much more serious than the previous few times, and I felt that my hands were sticky, and there seemed to be ***. I opened my palms and was startled. I vomited. A pile of black blood, and it was very unpleasant, the smelly one, but it was lighter than the black blood that I had smelled on the monk's corpse in the cornfield before.
Guo Dasan couldn't help covering his nose, and said in surprise: "Xianxian, why does your blood smell so big? This is too abnormal, like, it's like..."
"It's like blood on a dead person, right?" I said it for Guo Dashan.
Guo Dashan also nodded in a daze. As for the big bowl of tea, he was already speechless. It is estimated that he would like to take back the sentence he said before,'I won't open the guest house, I want you to go to the tomb with you.' words.
"Don't panic, I can't die, listen to me, go to Zhong Ling now, the sooner the better."
"Okay! Get the order!" Guo Dashan rushed out, looking like he was waiting.
"Wait a minute!" I yelled to him. By this time I was out of breath, and I felt that something was coming out of my body, but I couldn't cough again.
"what's up?"
"Before it gets dark... Bring Zhong Ling to my side. If it's dark already, you don't have to go to her and come back quickly." I already faintly felt that Zhong Ling was wrong, if I really let it Guo Dasan is looking for her after nightfall. I am afraid that something will happen to Guo Dashan.
The sun was already slanting to the west. Only me and the big bowl of tea were left in the guest house. The big bowl of tea was sitting at the door, and I didn’t dare to sit in the back room, but I unexpectedly hated the afterglow of the setting sun. People went to sleep in the grocery room. Few people came in this room. It was very quiet. Except for some strange noises from time to time, there was nothing special. I was leaning against a bookcase that had fallen out of dust. There are no books in it.
But I still looked at the bookcase without blinking. The glass on it was fairly clean, and it seemed out of step with the surrounding environment. I saw people reflected on the glass.
"Who is it?" I asked softly. At the same time, I felt like I had fallen into a bottomless abyss. I felt a strange falling feeling in my whole body. I held on to the bookcase to prevent myself from falling down.
Then a person came out from behind the bookcase. It turned out that what I saw was not the reflection in the glass. There was really a person in the bookcase, he was scarface.
Seeing Scarface again, my mood has calmed down a lot. I can't talk about fear, because I know that under such a power gap, fear is one of the most ignorant behaviors, and I have to pretend to be nothing, to show that I am With hole cards, I am not so easily defeated. There is something called aura, which is a psychological game. Whoever is afraid first will lose.
I know that with the strength of Scarface, it is easy for him to kill me. He wants to save me, but it is just a matter of hand, and I only have to listen, listen to the reason why he did this, nothing more.
Scarface looked like a crooked face. After looking at me for a while, it seemed to be a little surprised at my calm performance. Then he walked out of the bookcase. The door of the bookcase was intact, even the slight abrasion between the glass and the door frame was intact. He never appeared, but he walked out of the bookcase unscathed, making people completely wonder whether his knowledge of physics was wrong. How could an actual solid object pass through the glass, in fact, even if it is. It is impossible for the gas to pass through the glass bottle so easily.
He sat on the chair, but did not fall from the chair. It seems that Scarface can not only pass through the wall, but this ability is completely controllable, within his grasp.
I have heard from Master once that there are many people with extraordinary abilities in this world. They are both humans and gods, or humans and ghosts. In short, this world is not as simple as I look like. It can come and go without a trace, you can't even feel the existence of a ghost, but he is already by your side, this is the most terrifying place.
"Xiao Xian!? Don't sleep, Zhong Ling is here! Come out soon." Guo Dasan already shouted outside.
I looked at Scarface and said in a cold voice, "Do you know my master?" He nodded, then said nothing, disappearing into the dust, as if he had never appeared before.
