New Times Inn

I don't know why the inn is quiet today.

In the past, there would be many guests in the inn at this time, but when Feng Qing went downstairs today, he felt that the surroundings were strangely quiet.

The inn is very lively most of the time, but sometimes it suddenly becomes quiet like this.

Feng Qing didn't really care.

She grabbed the little girl Qi's hand and went down.

"Oh, the shopkeeper, wait." Miss Qi was a little dazed by Feng Qing.

She was still holding a few pieces of clothes Feng Qing had just found for her in her hand, and the chocolate Feng Qing had just found for her was stuffed in her mouth.

"Here, I have given me so many things, is there really no problem?" Miss Qi was a little dumbfounded.

"It doesn't matter." Feng Qing said.

place.

However, there are some advantages to no one. There are not many lights around, and it is very quiet everywhere. Feng Qing, who is a social fear, is more relaxed on such occasions.

Around the dimly lit stairs, Feng Qing brought Miss Qi to the lobby. Miss Qi was probably too timid, and asked repeatedly, "This, Does it really matter if these things are given to me?"

These precious damask satins.

There are also black unknown candies.

And…

That silver-white, very beautiful ball.

This ball looks confusing on the surface, but if you know what it is, it will be clear.

—that's a glass ball lamp.

Miss Xiao Qi had such one before.

This glass ball lamp looks very different from what she used to look like, but the shopkeeper just said that, and Miss Qi immediately understood what this thing was.

The price of this thing is not low, if it is bought from the merchants of the Western Regions, it can still be cheaper.

But the glass ball lamp in front of me is too delicate, and this is the first time for Miss Qi to see it.

"It doesn't matter." Feng Qing repeated it again. She said indifferently, "It's not a precious thing, it's very cheap."

Feng Qing said this sincerely.

Ten yuan purse mail, discounted every night.

"Yes, is it?" Miss Qi thought to herself, that's right. A glass ball lamp is indeed not a rare item for the shopkeeper.

However, what Feng Qing and Miss Qi don't know is that.

—While they were chatting, the voices of the two were clearly heard in this quiet inn.

…

"What did the shopkeeper give to Miss Qi?"

In a certain room of the inn, two guests were sitting quietly in the room with their ears pricked up.

Everyone has a heart for gossip, although the inn is in a very dangerous state, the guests in the inn are afraid that people will come to the door in an instant, so the inn becomes so quiet , but everyone's enthusiasm for listening to gossip was ignited by this silence.

"I don't know." Another person next to me said, "Isn't it just something worthless? Why are you so gossipy?"

"I'm just curious." The man who wanted to peek under the door said, "The shopkeeper really doesn't seem to care, since yesterday until now, I have been Thinking about when she will be able to apologize to the momentary begging for mercy, I didn't expect that she has no voice now."

In addition to these guests, the guys in the inn are also talking now.

"That guy named Qi Yushu is really smart."

Chu Changzui said while eating oranges.

"On the first day the shopkeeper agreed to take him in, he handed in the blood jade he carried with him." Feng Xiruo, who was beside him, also said.

"This thing can't be kept in one's hands, and it will bring disaster, just like the water source in the desert, so the weak would rather give it to the strong, so as to Are you here to seek shelter?" Anhuo Shaxi asked beside him.

Just as everyone in the room was gossiping secretly everywhere, the voices of Feng Qing and Miss Qi came from the lobby.

"But this thing is a little bit..." Miss Qi said weakly.

"Oh, it's just a few pieces of clothes I've worn before, and a small lamp." According to Feng Qing's experience, this kind of lamp is all in the eyes of the ancients. Candlestick, so she just said the lamp directly.

Feng Qing's tone has always been sincere.

When she said something was cheap, there was no way to hide the slight disgust in her tone.

Hi, it's just some clothes and lights. It's all because there are too many things going on in the inn recently.

"But..."

"Oh, there's nothing left." Feng Qing dragged Miss Qi into her room.

Feng Qing did not follow the habit of guests to peep at her bedroom, but Feng Qing did have one thing to do in front of her.

She moved Miss Qi's bed away, and then plugged the silver-white little moon lamp into the socket at the bedside.

Before, because Feng Qing was afraid that the guests would be electrocuted, she used baby safety plugs to prevent electric shocks to plug all the sockets of these guests.

This is also the reason why there has been no electric shock accident in Fengqing Inn for so long.

She turned on the moon lamp gently, and the lamp emitted a faint light.

That feeling, like the screen of the stage being slowly pulled away, is a very pure joy.

"Wow..." Miss Qi looked at the little silver-white ball that suddenly shone out, and exclaimed happily.

"You can sleep with this on at night." Feng Qing said.

It seems to save power.

Feng Qing remembered that this little girl kept saying that the bedroom was dark. If she sleeps with this small light on, she should not be afraid of the dark.

After turning on the light, Feng Qing breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around and wanted to go upstairs, but suddenly heard the little girl behind him ask:

"Why are you sending me these things?"

Miss Qi looked at the shopkeeper and felt a little uneasy in her heart.

Actually…

Miss Qi knew that her brother had handed over the blood jade to the shopkeeper.

And in her heart, that blood jade is not a good thing.

At the very least, it was not luck at all for the siblings. And all are disasters.

Miss Qi still remembers what her brother secretly said to her after handing over the blood jade to the shopkeeper.

"Finally sent that thing out."

Qi Yushu let out a long sigh.

"Brother..." Miss Qi looked at her brother hesitantly at the time, Qi Yushu turned her head and asked, "You don't blame me for handing over such a precious thing to him. The shopkeeper, right?"

"No, no." Miss Qi shook her head again and again.

"I know it's a bad thing."

A bad thing that made her brother have to take her around.

Someone may dream of owning a blood jade.

Because no matter how evil this thing is, it can also help people make breakthroughs in martial arts.

Through the ages, countless people have been looking forward to this, so they went crazy looking for things like blood jade.

Miss Qi knew that her brother handed over the blood jade to the shopkeeper like a hot potato, but she also knew that her brother was uneasy and kind.

She knew that the shopkeeper had accepted the blood jade, and at the moment she knew it, she actually thought about it in her heart, it seemed that even the shopkeeper would inevitably be moved by the blood jade .

People in this world are generally like this, almost no one will make an exception.

Miss Qi lowered her head and sighed slowly.

She didn't know why she was sighing, but suddenly thought that the power of that blood jade would really arouse the most terrifying emotion in human psychology - greed.

I just don't know if the shopkeeper in front of her suddenly gave her so many things, if she had already seen her brother's plan, so she was testing her.

Or…

"Because..." At this moment, Miss Qi suddenly heard the shopkeeper in front of her speak.

"This is a return gift."

Feng Qing listened to Miss Qi's question and prepared to tell the truth.

Then, she saw with her own eyes that when Miss Qi heard her answer, she suddenly froze for a moment.

Really~ cute~love~

Feng Qing now thinks that this brother and sister actually gave him a broken stone as a gift, and he thinks this is ridiculous, but also cute.

I always feel a sense of warmth.

After all, it is well known that the use of stone tools as gifts is already something that happened in the age of the apes.

Although Feng Qing did travel back in time, she really did not travel back to that era.

She imagined that the brothers and sisters picked up a stone in line with their own aesthetics on the way to escape, and then deliberately punched a hole and threaded a rope. At that time, they took it out as a gift came out...

Well, that picture came out.

However, the two brothers and sisters are not very old, and it is normal for their brain circuits to be more interesting.

When Feng Qing thought of this, his voice slowed down.

Then—

Miss Qi smiled when she saw the shopkeeper in front of her.

Although the shopkeeper often laughs, every time he laughs before, it makes people feel a little gloomy.

But maybe because of the very soft lighting now, not only does she not look scary at all, but she looks a little strangely gentle.

Miss Qi suspected that she was wrong.

"You are really an interesting pair of siblings." The shopkeeper said.

"Although the small stone you brought over is really too simple." The shopkeeper said.

"But it's the cutest looking gift in years."

There was a strange pleasure in the shopkeeper's tone.

This pleasure feels a little creepy, and it sounds like an adult is watching two children fooling around.

Miss Qi got goosebumps.

She said with an incredible feeling in her tone, "Yes, cute?"

After she finished speaking, she suddenly realized that her tone was not good, so she immediately lowered her head.

The beating heart was in her chest, reminding her of what was happening.

But then, how is that possible?

No matter what you say, that blood jade can’t be called cute, right?

"Yes." The shopkeeper said it for granted, her eyes suddenly became distant, as if she was thinking, "Let me think about it, the last time I received this When is a lovely gift…”

"Oh, that's right." The shopkeeper laughed.

"Like when I was… six?"
