Chapter 117 Master
The shop owner seemed to be getting excited, and his head shook slightly. In this short moment, Zhou Rong saw the person standing in front of the shop owner.
He was stunned for a moment, and then he shrank back suddenly as if he was greatly frightened.
I didn’t control my arm well and actually knocked over the candle on the candlestick.
The moment the candle was about to fall to the ground, a hand quickly caught it, and then placed the candle back on the candlestick at an extremely fast speed.
Jiang Cheng pulled Zhou Rong and signaled with his eyes. The two quietly stepped back, opened the door, and got into a room.
Almost the moment the door closed, there was a slight "creak" sound.
It was like a very heavy door being pushed open.
A moment later, there was a burst of rapid and powerful footsteps outside the door. The man seemed to think for a while, and then went straight to the door of the room where the two were hiding.
The crisp sound of keys clashing sounded, and Zhou Rong was startled. He did not expect that the store owner actually had a spare key in his hand.
With the sound of pins popping open in the lock cylinder, the door was pushed open.
Footsteps broke in, followed by the sound of rummaging. However, he was destined to miss. Jiang Cheng and the two hid in room 308, opposite room 307.
The store owner rummaged for a while, but seemed to find no trace of anyone's presence, and then left. He returned to the wall in front of the darkroom. With a rubbing sound, the door became completely quiet. .
However, Jiang Cheng and Zhou Rong both remained silent and kept their breathing to a minimum.
One minute, two minutes, until the third minute was almost over, there was suddenly a clear sound of footsteps outside the door, very close to the two of them, and then the sound of friction was heard, and the door became silent again.
Jiang Cheng and Zhou Rong still didn't move.
It was not until 5 minutes later that the process was repeated again, and the two quietly left the room.
But instead of going directly downstairs to join his teammates, he came to the corner of the second floor.
"Mr. Zhou," Jiang Cheng pretended to be extremely scared and asked in a low voice, "What did you just see?"
Zhou Rong looked more frightened than Jiang Cheng, but he was not Just pretending, he hasn't adjusted his breathing yet.
He was hiding behind the door of room 308 just now, and saw through the crack of the door that the store owner changed from the good old man he was yesterday, and his face was ferocious and twisted.
What’s even more terrifying is that he holds a sharp knife with a cold light in his hand.
If discovered, the consequences are self-evident.
"Darkroom. In addition to the shop owner, there was a woman in the darkroom," Zhou Rong's expression became increasingly ugly as if recalling the scene at that time, "It was not his wife, but an old woman. She. She was sitting on a wooden chair, half of her face seemed to have melted, leaving only one eye, nose, and lips."
Jiang Cheng's pupils slowly narrowed.
"Mr. Yin," Zhou Rong suddenly grabbed Jiang Cheng's wrist and said, "I know you are not an ordinary person. You should also be able to tell that the difficulty of this mission is different from those we have experienced in the past. This time it is not even Matched with someone new. "
Jiang Cheng didn't say anything, but gave him a look that said, "Although I'm very scared, I can still continue to listen to you."
Zhou Rongke ignored this and said quickly: "I want to join forces with you, Mr. Yin," he swallowed, "I have successfully passed 5 missions, this is the 6th time."< br>
He glanced at the ascending stairs and said with lingering fear: "But this mission is probably more complicated than my previous five missions combined. The difficulty is very high, and something like this happened before I even entered the domain. I have a very bad feeling.”
I ignored Zhou Rongyu’s emotion about how scary the task was and how good he was. Such nonsense, he raised his head and asked bluntly: "What do you mean by domain?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Rong couldn't help but froze. The look he looked at Jiang Cheng gradually changed from doubt to suspicion, but only in an instant, he returned to his previous appearance.
"It's the range where ghosts can move or interfere," he explained.
"Then you mean that Anping Town is not within the reach of ghosts or is within the scope of interference?" Jiang Cheng asked back.
Zhou Rong nodded, "According to my judgment, it should be like this."
Jiang Cheng did not delve into his judgment method or anything else. First, time was tight, and if he delayed it for a while, downstairs People should notice the abnormality.
The second is that it is unnecessary, because these are his cognitive blind spots, so no matter how Zhou Rong explains, he cannot confirm the authenticity.
It would be better not to ask, which would make you appear inscrutable.
He gave Zhou Rong a weird look like I won't say anything, but you'd better think about it, and then he neither agreed nor refused Zhou Rong's cooperation proposal.
"Come downstairs," he said very naturally.
After arriving downstairs, the two said nothing about what had just happened, except that they did not find the store owner.
"Then what were you two doing upstairs for so long?" It was Chen Xiaomeng who spoke. She stared at Jiang Cheng fiercely, wanting to rush up and bite him to death.
“You two.”
Chen Xiaomeng’s expression turned strange. In order to throw dirty water on Jiang Cheng, she had done everything possible, even to the extent of affecting innocent people. Zhou Rong.
Hearing this, Benfu looked at Jiang Cheng with even more intense eyes.
"Long'er," Jiang Cheng looked at Chen Xiaomeng affectionately and said coyly, "What are you talking about? You, you don't know how reluctant I was last night."
Hearing this, Chen Xiaomeng's eyes darkened, and she almost vomited a mouthful of blood in her throat.
"Dear gentlemen!"
The village chief stood outside the hotel door, looking eagerly at these saviors. He finally managed to get the two down, but found that they were gathered together. They were flirting and had no intention of following them to the village, which made him anxious.
When everyone looked at him, he smiled as kindly as possible with his few remaining front teeth: "It's getting late, and the mountain road is rugged and difficult to walk, otherwise we will..."
< br>"Okay," Jiang Cheng nodded, "Let's set off now."
Hearing this, the faces of the village chief and all the villagers beamed with joy.
Following them on the road, Pei Qian walked side by side with the village chief. The two exchanged ideas about the local customs from time to time. Jiang Cheng followed them and squinted his eyes to listen.
Chen Xiaomeng initially planned to find an opportunity to strangle Jiang Cheng when she was alone, but Jiang Cheng seemed to see through her mind and would pull someone with her whenever she went to the toilet.
But he doesn’t seem to be picky about who goes with him, and the latest time he even dragged Yu Man along.
It took about a quarter of an hour for the two of them to come back.
"That is to say, the village is located between two mountains," Pei Gan seemed to have thought of something and looked at the village chief as if to confirm.
"Yes, master, it's like this," the village chief respected Pei Qian very much. He shouted to each master one after another, and even asked people to use paper umbrellas to protect Pei Qian from the sun.
Jiang Cheng glanced at him sideways, and suddenly shouted: "I'm hot too, and I want a strong man to hold an umbrella for me!"
The village chief was stunned for a moment, then looked at Jiang Cheng to explain. Said: "This little brother"
What I didn't expect was——
"Who are you with?!" Jiang Cheng pinched his waist, rolled his eyelids, and said in a long voice, "Who is your brother? I am an expert!" (End of Chapter)
