Chapter 804: Haunted
There are some topics that you can say whatever you want in the room with the door closed, but there are some topics that you must never say in front of people! The thing Xiao Er wanted to talk about today was the latter, and the shopkeeper's face changed when he heard it: "What nonsense are you talking about, don't talk nonsense in front of the guests, hurry up and take the dishes to the kitchen, the cook is still waiting!" β
Xiao Er stood stunned and didn't speak.
At this time, it was already dark, there were only a few people in the huge inn, Yu Wuwang and Wu Xi looked at each other for a while, and only felt doubts in their hearts, there was no doubt that they were the only guests in the inn now, were there any sensitive topics that could not be said in front of the guests? If there is such a strange topic, they are really a little more interested.
After leaving the dense forest, Yue Wu, who was very curious about everything, rushed to Xiao Er, and her eyes lit up: "What kind of haunted incident, can the little second brother tell me in detail?" β
The shopkeeper's face changed and changed, and he rushed to accompany the smiling face before Xiao Er spoke: "Don't worry about the guests, it's just some trivial things." β
"No, it's not a small thing......."
Xiao Er suddenly opened his mouth, and when he looked up again, his eyes were full of panic: "I saw it with my own eyes!" β
What did he see, that a dignified man would be afraid to be like this.
This time, even if the shopkeeper wanted to hide something, he couldn't hide it completely, because Xiao Er aroused the curiosity of the guests, and even if he wanted to stop it, it was impossible to completely block everyone's mouths.
In desperation, the shopkeeper could only walk away temporarily.
Xiao Er said with a frightened face: "Recently, something happened to us here today, I don't know why, someone always disappears inexplicably!" First I heard the cry of a strange beast at night, and then I heard a strange figure in the forest during the day! The inexplicable disappearance was said to be haunted, and I heard that a small village not far from here disappeared because of the haunting! The people in the village are missing, and they have not been found! β
How could such a bizarre thing happen in reality? No matter how you think about it, everyone thinks it's a little incredible.
Yu Wuwang's expression was solemn: "How could a living person disappear out of thin air, you can't be mistaken, right?" Have you ever looked for these things in the Baoguan Mansion and nearby? β
The corners of Xiao Er's lips showed a wry smile: "Official? How could the government care about such a thing! β
This place is where the two armies fought, and the government fled from here a long time ago, and it has not come back since, and there is no one in this vicinity, so it can be said that it has become a mess!
"I searched all the nearby places, not only did I not find any clues, but even the people who went to find people were always several, because of this incident, everyone was too scared to go out." Xiao Er said with a sigh.
"Then what did you just say you saw with your own eyes?"
Xiao Er told everyone with palpitations that after encountering the army on the official road, in order to detour, he took a small road that few people passed, but when he was halfway through the road, he vaguely saw two more figures not far away! At first, Xiao Er thought it was the figure of a person who took a shortcut like him, so he didn't care, but continued to walk forward, and when he got closer, he realized that something was wrong, it was not a person at all, but a corpse.
Recalling the scene at that time, Xiao Er was still trembling with fright: "I have lived for so many years, and it is the first time I have seen such a terrible scene!" The man was hanging upside down on a tree, half of his body was eaten by some monster, and half of his head was gone! There are also many wrecks on the ground, and there will only be more people to be eaten! It's horrible, it's horrible! β
It's a scary scene just to listen to, but if you see it with your own eyes........ It's also sad that the shopkeeper will have such a reaction, after all, he is just an ordinary person.
Nameless sighed, and only felt strange in his heart: "Although it is normal for there to be man-eating beasts in the forest, it is too wrong to eat so many people." β
Xiao Er hurriedly explained: "We have never had such a time on our side! Although this side is close to the mountains and there are many fierce beasts in the forest, it is not normal to eat so many days in just a few days. β
Yu Wuwang also agreed with him: "Didn't you say that there is still a village where all the people are missing?" No matter how powerful a beast is, it is impossible to eat everyone in a village overnight, let alone that village has no blood at all. β
The more you talk about it, the more strange it goes.
Everyone looked at each other and felt very strange in their hearts.
Moon Dance is the most special one in the crowd, she lives in the dense forest since she was a child, and she has long been immune to fierce beasts and other monsters, and now she will never be surprised by anything, but will feel excited: "Why don't we go over and have a look?" It's the first time I've heard of such a strange thing happening, and I'm idle anyway, so why don't I look around, maybe I can find some clues related to the wind girl! β
What she said is not unreasonable, and they really don't have anything to do now.
"You have to go by yourself," Bai Qingyu, who has always liked to remain silent, stood up, her long silver-white hair was a little more beautiful under the light, "I'm an old man, I really can't toss it, so I'll go back and rest first." β
After Bai Qingyu left, Yueqing also followed upstairs.
"Senpai!"
Yueqing walked behind Bai Qingyu and stopped her at a turnover.
Bai Qingyu, who didn't know what was going on, turned his face: "What's the matter with you?" "Along the way, because of the particularity of Bai Qingyu's identity, everyone rarely talks to her, and only the moon dance that came out of the dense forest likes to pester Bai Qingyu, she gives people the feeling that she doesn't belong to this world, and all the atmospheres seem so out of place.
But even so, Yueqing still saw a clue.
"Senior, have you ever been to Liang Guo before?" What Yueqing wanted to ask was actually whether something had happened to Bai Qingyu in Liang State, but she didn't ask for fear that Bai Qingyu would be dissatisfied.
The latter smiled slightly, nodded and said, "I did have some past here, but it doesn't matter, so many years have passed, I can't still let it go." With that, she turned around and walked directly in the direction of the room, because the distance was relatively far, Yueqing didn't hear her sigh softly.
At the same time, the people downstairs have already made a decision, and tomorrow morning, they will go to the place that the second brother said to check the situation.
The second brother refused: "Your courage is too big, right........ When you go to that place, aren't you afraid of encountering wild beasts? β
Moon Dance chuckled and said disappreciatively: "What's there to be afraid of, there are many man-eating beasts in my house, and I was almost swallowed by them several times, and I didn't survive in the end?" It's not a big deal! β
When Xiao Er heard this, his eyes were about to fall out!
"Guest, you're really experienced........
A light could be seen from afar, Feng Changqi narrowed his eyes slightly, and carefully examined the light not far away.
By the moonlight, she vaguely saw the source of the light, it was a mountain garden, the light was reflected from inside, when he came, Shen Haoran said that the place he was looking for was absolutely safe, and it was probably this garden.
The soldier who escorted her over said, "Wind girl, we are almost there. β
Feng Changqi answered, and as the distance gradually shortened, the outline of the other garden appeared in front of everyone, and she felt a wave of unease, as if something would happen in the next moment.
Feng Changqi suddenly shivered.
The soldier noticed this detail, and thought that the mountain wind was too cold, so he hurriedly said: "Wind girl, bear with me, take two more steps to arrive." β
Shen Haoran was very concerned about Feng Changqi's safety, so when he sent people over, he made arrangements in front of the stage, in addition to sending people to escort them, there were also people in the other garden to answer, and the lights that Feng Changqi and others saw were lit by those who responded, and they greeted them with smiling faces as soon as they saw Feng Changqi: "Wind girl, you are here." β
The person who was greeted so warmly was a little surprised: "You recognize me? β
"Recognize, how can you not recognize! Miss Wind, you are our lifesaver, and if you hadn't helped us prepare the antidote, I'm afraid the brothers would have broken it there. β
"That's what I'm supposed to do."
Everyone welcomed Feng Changqi into the house, only to see that although this mountain garden was located in a remote area, there was no shortage of anything that should be there, so it could be seen that someone had made proper arrangements, plus dozens of soldiers who were responsible for protecting themselves, looking at their appearance outside the camp tent, Feng Changqi was at ease.
After a busy day and such a long time on the mountain road, she was already tired, so she ate something and went back to her room to rest.
She slept in a daze until midnight, when a noisy footstep disturbed her good dreams.
Feng Changqi struggled out of the room: "What happened?" β
A soldier looked horrified and said, "There are monsters! β
The remaining sleepiness disappeared all of a sudden, and Feng Changqi tightened his brows and took two steps forward: "What kind of monster are you talking about?" β
"Just now two brothers went out to make it convenient, but not long after they left, they heard two screams, and the brothers thought that something had happened to them, so they raised torches and went over to check the situation, and then, and then they saw the monster!" This person obviously saw the so-called monster just now, only to see his expression frightened, his body trembling uncontrollably, "Monsters like people, they have red eyes, and sharp claws like knives, and they bite gently, and the bones and flesh are all gone.......
The man was obviously irritated, and Feng Changqi pulled him into the house, and was about to call the others in, but heard other screams.
"There's a youkai, helpβ"
The screams came and went, and after a while, they all disappeared, except for a few soldiers who found that the situation was wrong and ran into the house in time, none of the twenty people were spared!
