Chapter 670 The Weird Old Lady
“Brother, please do me a favor. Can you drive more carefully?” Liu Jun looked at Li Bai with a pale face.
Li Bai was driving a Jeep attentively. This car was just bought. Don’t ask why he bought the car, Mr. Li was not short of money.
Hearing Liu Jun's words, Li Bai was also speechless. How can he blame him for being such a meow? It's the same for everyone on this broken road.
It was a bumpy road and the jeep drove for a full day. It was already evening when we saw the village. The cities here are built like a county town. You can imagine what kind of facilities the county town has. There are stilted buildings with Miao characteristics everywhere, and there are basically no normal buildings.
"Gulu gulu" Xiaobao's face turned red and he held his stomach.
Liu Jun turned his head and said, "Xiaobao, are you hungry?"
"Well, Xiaobao is a little hungry." Xiaobao nodded.
"Hold on, I've arrived at the county town here. I'll find a place to eat later."
Liu Jun was also blamed for this, because he misjudged the population density here in Miaojiang.
He thought that after running for a while, he could take a rest before going to the next place. Unexpectedly, the place was sparsely populated. He had been running for a whole day before he saw a place that could barely be called a county seat.
The three of them got out of the car and acted in unison, clutching their stomachs. They were hungry. They hadn’t ordered anything to eat in the car all day long.
"Li Bai, next time you buy a car, ask them to give you some snacks," Liu Jun said weakly.
Li Bai rolled his eyes, who buys a car and gives snacks.
"Brother Liu, there is a small restaurant in front, let's go have a meal"
"Let's go." Liu Jun took the lead and was about to enter the restaurant when a little ghost appeared on the side of the restaurant and danced in front of Liu Jun and the others.
“We can hear you when you speak,” Liu Jun said with a frown. His stomach was growling with hunger. The restaurant was right in front of him, and there were imps blocking his way. This was not good.
At this time, footsteps came from the hotel. Hearing the footsteps, an anxious look appeared on the kid's face, and he waved faster.
"Ahem!" An old cough came, and the kid suddenly became frightened and disappeared.
Immediately afterwards, an old lady with gray hair and aged appearance walked out of the restaurant.
The old lady was leaning on a cane and looked up at Liu Jun and the others. There was no emotion in her cloudy eyes.
"You two, would you like to stay in a hotel or have a meal?" The old lady's voice was slightly hoarse.
"Can I stay in a hotel here?" Li Bai's eyes lit up. The relationship was so good that he really didn't want to drive anymore. Driving for a day was uncomfortable, and driving on a bad road for a day was even worse.
"Of course it is possible, but the rooms are not as good as hotels in big cities and are a bit shabby," the old lady explained.
"Okay, it doesn't matter. I can tolerate it being a little shabby. Liu Jun, then let's live here?" Li Bai asked.
"Well, okay, let's put the salute in the room first." Liu Jun nodded. This old lady has a lot of resentment. She is probably not an ordinary person who can survive until now.
He is not afraid of anything. If the old lady really provokes him, she will probably die. And that kid just now, there must be a reason why the kid blocked the road. Looking at this little coward, there is probably something wrong with this store, so the kid came out to block the road out of kindness.
The old lady turned around and walked into the store first, followed closely by Li Bai. Liu Jun picked up Xiaobao. It took him a lot of effort to save the child, but he couldn't fall over in this ravine. Boat.
"The room is on the second floor. You guys will come down and order later." The old lady tremblingly bent over and took out a bunch of keys from under the counter and put it on the counter. "Three hundred yuan, two hundred yuan is the deposit. When you leave, I will give it back to you!"
"Okay." Li Bai nodded, took out three hundred yuan and gave it to the old lady, and his brother Liu ran behind Holding Xiaobao in his arms means he has to pay for it.
Then he picked up the key and walked upstairs, followed closely by Liu Jun holding Xiaobao in his arms.
This staircase is made of wood. It has probably not been maintained for a long time. It creaks when you step on it. Liu Jun is afraid of falling down while holding Xiaobao.
Upon reaching the second floor, Li Bai looked around a few times, took out the key and looked at it. There was no sign on it, and he didn't know which room was theirs.
"Old lady, which room key is this?" Li Bai shouted.
After a while, the old lady's old voice sounded, "You can drive in any time you want." Liu Jun and Li Bai were both stunned. Good guy, this old lady is so trouble-free. Everyone else locks them in. Six keys, old lady, one key for five or six locks.
Li Bai ran back and forth and looked at several rooms on the second floor. The locks on the doors of the other rooms were all hanging and not locked. Only the last room had a big lock. Fasten it tightly.
"Brother Liu, something doesn't seem right about this room." Li Bai pointed to the last room.
"Huh? Something's wrong?" Liu Jun walked over with Xiaobao in his arms and looked at it a few times.
"Corpse Qi, quite strong corpse Qi, and a lot of resentment." Liu Jun squinted his eyes, took the key from Li Bai's hand, and opened the lock directly.
The lock was taken off, and when Liu Jun was about to push the door open, an eerie sound suddenly came from the stairs.
"Young man, don't open the door casually. This is not a place for living people to live. You live in these rooms at the front." The old lady appeared mysteriously at the top of the stairs, holding a candlestick in her hand, illuminated by the flame of the candle. The old lady's wrinkled face was terrifying.
"Oh, could it be that it is for the dead?" Liu Jun stopped and looked at the old lady and asked.
"Young man, it's better to stay in the front rooms. Finish the work early and eat early." After the old lady said this, she turned and went downstairs.
Liu Jun hesitated for a moment and did not push open the wooden door. Even if he wanted to check something, he had to wait until he had finished eating and then stood there to check. If he angered the old lady, he and Li Bai would still be hungry. He persuades people to correct their evil ways and return to the right ways.
Choosing a room at random, Liu Jun reached out and opened the door. As soon as he entered the room, a musty smell hit his face. The room was very damp and cold. When he turned on the light, the decoration of the room was very simple, with two beds and two chairs. There wasn't even a cup for drinking water, let alone things like the bathroom and bedside table.
Li Baibai was dumbfounded and murmured to himself, "This old lady is so humble. How can this be any worse than a hotel in the city? It's half a world away. There's none in Africa." Such a shabby hotel"
"And this quilt, this smell, if you sleep with the quilt covered, you will probably be suffocated to death." Li Bai touched a quilt and said speechlessly.
Liu Jun was also speechless. This old lady, even if you are a black shop, you still look decent.
You can't sleep on this bed, so let's sit down for a while. As soon as Li Bai sat on the chair, he stood up with a grin on his face. He turned around and saw that there was a nail on the chair.
"Brother Liu, how about we change the store?" Li Bai said with a bitter face.
"You have to have a full meal if you change places. No matter how you change now, you are still hungry." Liu Jun hugged Xiaobao and turned downstairs to see what kind of food the old lady had, which they could fill first. Full stomach.
"Old lady, what kind of food do you have here?" Li Bai asked curiously. It was like this everywhere he lived, and he had no hope for food.
"You can order food," the old lady said with a cough.
"Braised pork? Fried tenderloin? Stewed pork vermicelli?" Li Bai reported several home-cooked dishes in a down-to-earth manner, fearing that the old lady wouldn't be able to cook them.
Unexpectedly, the old lady was more down-to-earth, and she spit out a few words, which almost made Li Bai angry to death: "No ingredients, only egg fried rice"
Li Bai was silent for a long time, "Old lady, I would like to ask, what are you doing?" Does anyone usually come to this store? "
"No one, anyone in their right mind will never come to my store." The old lady grinned, and Li Bai almost stopped scolding.
Liu Jun gave him a hand and watched the old lady "three portions of egg fried rice"
"Okay" the old lady walked into the kitchen tremblingly.
Liu Jun looked at the old lady's leaving back, narrowed his eyes, and didn't say anything. He just gave Li Bai a look, and Li Bai became quiet instantly.
"Is it a big problem?" Li Bai asked secretly.
"This old lady has a lot of lives on her hands, so be careful," Liu Jun replied in a low voice.
After a while, the old lady came over carrying three portions of egg fried rice.
Li Bai quickly stood up and took it, not because he was polite, but because he was so hungry that he couldn't help it. The old lady was shaking when she walked, and he was afraid that the egg fried rice would not be able to be eaten in his mouth.
"You guys eat, there won't be enough for you," the old lady said expressionlessly, then turned back to sit at the counter, her head lowered.
While the old lady was not looking, Liu Jun took out a small porcelain vase, which contained the poisonous insects that Liuli and the others had given them before they left. This was prepared because there were many poisonous insects in Miaojiang to prevent anyone from poisoning them. this.
