Chapter 20 The Knocker at the Hotel
After living with Cao Tang for a week, my body has improved a lot, and I have not been idle during this period, I have built five ghost slaying blood shadow knives, and I have also learned a prop called the Buddha Light Talisman Armor, which is a coat covered with glutinous rice.
Cao Tang's rules here are very simple, he can learn anything, but after a week of learning, he must hand over 5,000 yuan to his master every month, and the rest of the money will go to himself, and he will have to pay for the cost of building weapons.
On this day, business took the initiative to come to the door.
The person who came was a woman, about thirty years old. When she came, her face was pale and trembling, and Cao Da poured her a glass of water and asked her to speak slowly.
According to the woman's self-introduction, we learned that her surname was Wang and she opened a hotel. But in the past few days, something went wrong with the hotel. When midnight comes, there will be guests sleepwalking in the hotel, and then they will all go to the roof and jump down.
This greatly affected her business, so she closed the door on the roof, hoping to prevent the tragedy from happening.
But tragedy still happened, and there were still customers jumping from the roof. Confused, she looked at the lock, only to find it intact. So Ms. Wang didn't dare to open for business, so she came to us and asked if there was a way.
After hearing this, Cao Tang recommended a few products for Ms. Wang to buy. One is the Ghost Slayer Blood Shadow Knife, the other is the Buddha Light Talisman Armor, and the other is the Heavenly Red Holy Water. I know that the Tianhong Holy Water is actually the blood of a black dog with rabies, which is very effective against dirt.
Ms. Wang said she was willing to buy, and then she whispered, "I heard...... You also have a hands-on service here. I'm really scared and want to ask you to help, is that okay? ”
Cao Tang looked at us, only Cao Zhong and Cao Xiaoxiao shook their heads, and Cao Tang said: "Of my four lands, only the big apprentice and the little apprentice are free. If you want a big apprentice to go out, pay 50,000 yuan; If you want the little apprentice to make a move, you can pay 5,000 yuan and choose. ”
Ms. Wang thought about it for a long time, and then said, "I can't come up with so much cash, so I want a little apprentice." ”
And so my first business came. After Ms. Wang left, Cao Tang handed me the address of the hotel and gave me another 500 yuan, saying that it was my salary this time.
I didn't think that five hundred yuan would be in my hands so quickly, and after putting away the money, I whispered: "Master, after I go out, I may still run into Luo Yushan, so what should I do?" ”
"It's up to ......you," Cao Tang said solemnly, "Luo Yushan has been watching nearby, just waiting for you to go out." This is a workout for you, your brothers and sisters, all of whom have experienced dangerous things to survive to this day. Jiang Cheng, only by facing danger again and again can he make his shoulders thicker. ”
I thought about it, and I said that I would do my best.
The hotel is in the town, and when I got my things ready and followed the address to find it, I found that this hotel is quite luxurious. Sure enough, the rich people's cash is all in their little business, no wonder Ms. Wang can't afford to ask Tang Da for help.
As soon as Ms. Wang at the counter saw me, she quickly said that she had arranged a room for me, and took me upstairs to have a look. The room she arranged for me was not bad, I put my things down and said that I would go out and buy something first, after all, it was only afternoon.
She said okay, let me live in peace.
This was what Cao Tang instructed me, and he said that the client would not necessarily tell the truth, so many times, we had to go around and investigate it ourselves. And if I'm unlucky, I'm likely to be approached by Luo Yushan tonight, so be careful.
The hotel is on a commercial street, I thought about it for a while, went to the convenience store and bought a pack of cigarettes, and then walked into a store selling jewelry in the distance, and asked the boss with a smile: "Boss, I want to ask for directions, can I stay in a hotel next to it?" ”
The boss was stunned for a moment, and he said to me: "You turn left to the end, don't live in the first hotel, wait until the end, there is still a hotel, just stay there." ”
I feigned surprise and asked, "Why can't you live in the first one?" ”
"It's not clean in there...... boss shook his head, "three people jumped off the building there." ”
"And this?"
I took out a cigarette and handed it to my boss, and said in surprise, "Tell me about it." ”
The boss took the cigarette and lit it, and he sighed, "You're from the village next to you, right?" I'll tell you this hotel, it's not clean. A few days ago, a few guests jumped off the building here, not together, but in turns, which was very scary. ”
That's what I already knew, I thought about it, and asked, "Do you know why this is happening?" ”
"There's a ghost! The owner of this shop is not normal......" the owner whispered to me.
At the boss's suggestion, I heard another version of the hotel, which Ms. Wang had not told me.
It turned out that this hotel was not opened by Ms. Wang herself, but by her boyfriend Zhao. But the problem is that Zhao already has a wife who has been married for 20 years, Lin. In fact, Lin always knew about Ms. Wang's existence, but he just swallowed his anger for the sake of the child. After the child was finally admitted to college, Lin filed for divorce and also wanted to take the hotel.
So the three quarreled, and in the end, Lin was so angry that he jumped down from the stairs and committed suicide.
Since then, weird things have happened.
I frowned, I didn't think that such a thing was still hidden in the hotel. The reason why Ms. Wang didn't say it was probably because she thought it was a family ugly.
But I always felt that something was wrong. That Lin is not brain-deficient, he has money to spend and a son, why did he jump off a hotel for a hotel. This still needs to be investigated, otherwise nothing will be known, and it may lead to disaster.
I asked the owners of several other stores, and they all got similar information. Some people also said that Lin was killed by Ms. Wang, but Zhao bought off the police. But some people swore that it was suicide, because they had seen Lin's body and there was no trace of being beaten at all.
When it was late, I went back to the hotel and took a hot shower, dressed neatly and lay on the bed watching TV. Instead of closing the door of the hotel, I placed a white candle in the doorway so that if something strange approached, I could spot it immediately. So when I watched the TV, I kept looking at the candlelight at the door.
Watching the TV, I suddenly heard a noise coming from upstairs, as if someone was fighting.
This is temporarily closed in the hotel...... And live someone else?
I turned off the TV and listened carefully to the noise upstairs, as if someone was crying and someone yelling. But what exactly is being yelled, I can't quite hear clearly.
After a while, the voice suddenly fell silent, and I picked up the landline in confusion and called the front desk, but no one answered. I called Ms. Wang again, and she answered quickly, and as soon as I connected the phone, I heard a very rapid gasp: "Sir...... What's wrong......"
I asked, "Is there no one else living in this hotel except me?" ”
"yes......"
I snorted and asked her why she was panting so hard and what she was doing, and she said she was working out at the gym. I hung up the phone, clutching the wooden knife in my hand.
Obviously no one lived, but there was a sudden noise upstairs, which was not normal to think about with your toes. I'm not going to run up to see what's going on, I'm going to hide in my room safely.
The hotel was very silent, I could only hear my own breathing, and I was about to relax, when suddenly there was a bang from upstairs, as if something had been smashed, and even the ceiling chandelier in my room shook violently.
Things are not ordinary!
I hurriedly put away the candles, then closed the door, turned off all the lights, and quietly hid in my room, not daring to let people know that I also lived in a hotel. The quarrel upstairs was getting louder and louder, and I could even hear them talking, as if it was a woman accusing her husband of never taking care of the children and only knowing how to accompany her new love.
Why does this quarrel sound so similar to what the owner of the jewelry store told me......
About ten minutes later, the quarrel stopped, and I heard the sound of the door opening and closing from upstairs, as if someone had left the hotel.
Suddenly, there was a sound of coming down the stairs at the top of the stairs, and someone was hurrying down. I was about to wait for the man to go down and go out to have a look, when suddenly, the footsteps sounded!
From the sound of the voice, the man walked up to my floor and stopped.
Boom...... Boom...... Boom......
The voice suddenly approached my room, I swallowed, the man probably wouldn't come to my room, I didn't open the door or turn on the light now, like all other empty rooms.
The footsteps were getting closer and louder, and I felt as if my heart was in my throat, and I was pounding and pounding. The footsteps had reached the door of my room at this time, and I thought that someone would pass by like this, but at this time, the footsteps were heard again.
How can it be! Why did you walk to the door of my room with such dignity!
"Bang...... Bang......"
There was a slight knock at the door, but my heart was about to explode, that guy knew I was here! At this time, I subconsciously looked at the time on my phone.
At half past ten, there was still half an hour to eleven o'clock, which was the beginning of midnight.
At midnight, a guest will jump off the roof by himself......
I walked back in fear and decided not to open the door anyway. The previous victims must have opened the door, so something evil will happen.
The man knocked on my door tirelessly, as if he had to wait until I opened it. Since the man knew I was there, I turned on the light and sat on the bed, staring at the doorknob.
Because...... Every time the man knocked on the door, the doorknob came down a little bit, and it had been opened for a short time, if it weren't for me turning on the light to watch, I'm afraid the door would have opened directly!
I felt my scalp tingle, although I am a farmer, but it is not the first time I have lived in a hotel, I have never heard of anyone who can break the door handle without a room card.
I hurried to the door to push the doorknob back, but it was as if it was fixed, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't push it even a bit.
At this point, I was in a hurry and quickly dragged the bedside table over, just under the doorknob, against the knocking doorknob.
There was a cabinet under the doorknob, so naturally it couldn't go down any further. At this moment, the man's knock on the door suddenly became much louder, as if he was no longer knocking on the door, but kicking the door with his foot, and the mineral water in the room was shaken!
The door had already been opened a little bit, and then it was kicked like this...... Probably going to be kicked away! And the most terrifying thing is that the bedside table made of solid wood is crushed by the doorknob little by little, as long as the wooden board on it is crushed, the door will be easily opened.
No, I have to escape.
Thinking of this, I hurriedly rushed to the window, ready to jump out of the window to escape, because my room was only on the second floor.
Running to the window, I hurriedly opened the curtains, and then screamed in fright.
Outside the window, a dark man was clinging to the glass, his ugly face smiling at me......
Luo Yushan!
"Bang!"
Just then, the door was kicked open hard......
