go away!You damned ssrs!
Chapter 8 Human Skin Lantern
After deciding to go on the road together, Huamanlou's speed is very fast.
He was originally a person who liked to travel in the mountains and rivers. The Baihua Building kept the things he needed to go out all year round. If he really wanted to go, he could go straight away. He even kept two horses in the yard.
It's just that the two horses he and Lu Xiaofeng are naturally enough on weekdays, and now that there is one more Jiang Zuimo, I don't know who to let go.
Lu Xiaofeng originally wanted to show his gentlemanly spirit, saying that he could go for a while, and wait until he bought the horse. Jiang Zuimo said: "Oh, don't worry about me, I also have a horse, but it's just outside the city."
"Outside the city?" Hua Manlou raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Aren't you afraid of getting lost?"
Jiang Zuimo said to himself: "I am completely assured of this, no one in this world should be able to steal my horse!"
"Oh?"
Both of them were a little unbelievable.
Although it is true that there are such fierce horses, there is no such thing that cannot be stolen, right?
Jiang Zuimo has the answer in his heart, but he can't say it—how should he explain it to them? In fact, this horse is a peach and plum horse that comes with the system. Even if it is stolen, Jiang Zuimo can call it back to the pet space through the system. The horse thief has nothing but paid horse grass.
And the main reason why she put Tao Lima outside the city to let it grow freely is...
She has no horse grass, OJZ, what a tearful thing.
Both Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou were very curious about Jiang Zuimo's horse that would not be snatched away, and insisted on chasing Jiang Zuimo to see what was so strange about this horse.
But after seeing it, the two were inevitably a little disappointed.
There are many extraordinary horses in Jiansan, but the Taoli horse is basically a one-for-one horse for everyone. Its appearance is really ordinary, and it is nothing compared to the horses provided by Huamanlou.
However, Lu Xiaofeng soon discovered that although this horse didn't look very good, its eyes were very agile. It was a very human horse, very obedient.
No wonder Jiang Zuimo dared to let him go.
After the two praised the horse's posture, the three of them rode on the road.
After going on the road, Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou praised Tao Lima's performance again.
There is no doubt about the bumpy nature of horse riding, even Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou who have been riding horses all year round can easily wear their thighs and bump their buttocks.
But Jiang Zuimo's Tao Lima seems to be completely stable, and the eyes of the two people from the rivers and lakes are turning red with envy.
How come they don't have such good horses?
"Hey, let me ask, where did you get this horse?" Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help asking enviously, "Although it doesn't look like a handsome horse, it is very handsome."
Jiang Zuimo coughed and said, "This is a magic horse from our side, that's all there is to it, there won't be any more."
Lu Xiaofeng said regretfully: "So that's how it is, what a pity. By the way, is your horse a male or a female? Do you want to breed it with Brother Hua's horse?"
Jiang Zuimo looked down at his Tao Lima...
To be honest, she didn't know whether the thing was male or female.
Probably the mother's.
After all, she is a woman, so the system should provide a matching one, right?
However, for those who are mating or not, Jiang Zuimo smiled and said: "It depends on fate. I don't want to force her. If she likes it, let her go. If you don't like it, let it go."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Daoist Jiang is indeed a monk, and he really treats all living beings equally."
Jiang Zuimo: "..." Really, she just said it casually, why did Lu Xiaofeng think so much?
Jiang Zuimo turned to look at Huamanlou: "By the way, when you were at Baihualou just now, Huamanlou, you didn't seem to say what happened in this inn. It's boring to travel now, why don't you come and listen?"
Hua Manlou nodded: "That's exactly what I mean."
Westgate is close to the southwestern border, and it is a town located at the watershed between Han and Miao people. From Westgate to the west is the territory of the Miao people, to the east is the gathering place of the Han, and in the center of Westgate is the territory of the Han. A place where the Miao people live together.
Not too many people come here, but definitely not too few.There are also many useful things among the Miao people. Similarly, they also need a lot of things from the Han people. This is the largest trading market, and almost all the people who come and go are businessmen.
But there is only Meilong Inn in the town.
When Hua Ruling gave the inn to Mei Niang, it hadn't turned into this. Otherwise, he would never have dared to leave such an inn with a high risk factor to the woman he likes.
But Mei Niang persisted in this way, and persisted for more than 30 years.
However, a month ago, strange incidents began to occur frequently at the Meilong Inn.
Someone was walking up and down the stairs in the middle of the night, but when they went out, they found that there was no one.
There was a sound of bathing in the unoccupied guest room, but after entering, there was no water drop.
Tableware in the kitchen would suddenly shatter without making any sound.
……
Of course, although these feel strange, they are not particularly strange.
At least it wasn't so strange that Mei Niang asked Hua Ruling, her admirer from decades ago, for help.
The strangest thing is the human skin sky lantern that appears every night.
There are two red lanterns hanging outside Meilong Inn all the year round, whether the inn is closed or not, these two lanterns are always on.
But a month ago, the material of the two lanterns outside suddenly changed.
It was the shopkeeper who was in charge of lighting the lamps every day who discovered this.
The shopkeeper's martial arts is very good. He also walked the rivers and lakes in his early years, saw blood, and perhaps even killed people.
When he went up to light the lamp, he keenly noticed that the material of the lantern was different.
Originally, their lamp oil was soybean oil, and their lanterns were ordinary paper lanterns, which had to be replaced every three to two months.
But this time when he went to light the lamp, the oil turned into another strange oil, the exact material of which was not even recognized by the shopkeeper.
And the lantern has also turned into a human skin lantern, which should be the skin on the stomach, and the shopkeeper can see the belly button.
When he heard this, Jiang Zuimo couldn't hold back: "Wait a minute, navel... Is this shopkeeper so careful in his observation? No matter how I think about it, I feel a little disgusted..."
Hua Manlou also choked: "Maybe he took a second look afterwards, because this human skin lantern keeps appearing, and new ones are put on every three days."
Jiang Zuimo: "...How many people do you have to kill..."
Hua Manlou shook his head: "I don't know."
Jiang Zuimo: "Did she not report to the police? Normally, most people would report to the police, right? This is a murder case!"
Hua Manlou said: "No, in fact they have been keeping the matter of the human skin lanterns a secret. If they tell, this inn will not want to open."
Jiang Zuimo: "..." That's true.But she doesn't like people who leave the murder behind in order to continue to open the inn.
