Rebirth as a stick

Chapter 20

"Ah!!!!" Jiang Yuan screamed, quickly jumped behind Xing Yu, and stretched out half of his head to look at the person who came out of the door.

It was a skinny old woman, she looked very old, her white hair was combed meticulously, her nose was small and quite pretty, she should have been a beauty when she was young, but her eyes were hollow and her skin was so loose that she couldn't even look carefully. You can see her calf bones.She came out of the door, although very slowly but without a cane, and she didn't have any special reaction when she heard Jiang Yuan's scream.

Seeing the mother-in-law with hands and feet, Jiang Yuan regained his composure and was really startled, his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys were trembling.Taking a sneak peek at Xing Yu, he suddenly felt that his fuss was really shameful.

"Grandma, why did you come out suddenly? Is this your booth?" Jiang Yuan came out from behind Xing Yu, not daring to stay too far away from him, and stood beside him, embarrassingly smoothing his grip just now. wrinkled clothes.

The old lady didn't talk to him at all, and still walked her way.Until he walked to the stool at the booth and sat down, lifted his drooping eyelids, and gave the three of them a charity look.

"What are you here for? Why did you appear in Guling Town?" She spoke slowly, her voice was old and rough, and she felt that she might not be able to make a sound at any time. Moreover, her tone felt that they were not welcome to come to the town. .

Jiang Yuan stepped forward winkingly, and winked at the two of them. Out of the three, he is the youngest and the most handsome and pleasing. The other two have facial paralysis and the other is also facial paralysis. Of course he should take the initiative at this time Take on this task of pleasing the elders.He showed a cute smile, as if he wasn't the one who was scared to death just now, and said in the sweetest voice he thought: "Mother-in-law, the three of us are here for a trip, and we are staying at Uncle Aqing's inn. When I came out to find something to eat, I only saw your stall along the way, so I thought about what there is for us to eat."

At first, the old woman lowered her head as if she was about to fall asleep, but when she heard Jiang Yuan say 'staying at the Aqing Inn', she raised her head, and the moment she saw Jiang Yuan, Jiang Yuan saw that pair of empty eyes as if there was a twitch. The light flashed by.

"Oh, you live in the 'Dragon Inn'." The old woman said leisurely, she didn't ask anything else, she seemed to stand up with difficulty on her knees, "What do you want to eat, the old woman will cook for you, but today there is only Noodle."

So old lady, what do you mean by asking what you want to eat?However, the old lady still knew the name of Uncle Aqing's inn, which meant that she was very clear-headed. Jiang Yuan walked around the stall, showing full curiosity, "What kind of delicious...noodles does my mother-in-law specialize in?"

The old lady was amused by his appearance, and lifted the lid of a large pot tremblingly. When the lid was opened, the aroma rushed to her face, and Jiang Yuan's saliva almost flowed down. "What is this, mother-in-law, it smells so good." After speaking, she took a deep breath, and suddenly felt that the word "hungry" was clamoring all over her body.

"Call me Granny Yu. This is a sauce made from a secret recipe handed down from my family. It is made from many kinds of spices and wild game. It is rarely available. You are lucky today." Granny Yu picked up a side of the sauce. The large spoon is stirred in the sauce, and the sauce exudes a strong taste. "Usually there are others, but today there are only noodles here, so you can just eat and wait."

To say that it is enough is to belittle the fragrance, it is already very good.Jiang Yuan stood aside like a puppy waiting for food, sniffing vigorously from time to time.Granny Yu was very agile in her work, which was in stark contrast to how she was about to fall when she was walking just now.

It was only at this moment that Jiang Yuan realized that he seemed to be unable to see Qi at a glance after arriving in this town. Even the yellow Qi on Xing Yu's body was not so obvious, and Yang Qian's blue Qi that belonged to ordinary people was even less visible.He circulated the spiritual energy in his body, and then looked at Granny Yu, his expression changed instantly, but he told himself to be calm and not to be impulsive.He calmly sat down on a stool aside and waited with the two of them, his mind spinning rapidly.

At this time, the sky gradually darkened, and the already quiet town became even quieter. Finally, the afterglow of the setting sun disappeared completely, and Granny Yu also finished three bowls of noodles. "Okay, you three hurry up and eat, go back to the inn to have a good rest after eating, and leave early tomorrow morning."

Jiang Yuan handed the noodles to the two, while he sat down quietly, and the three sat aside and began to eat the noodles.The noodles are really delicious, and the sauce soaked in the noodles is particularly delicious. There are a few fresh vegetable leaves floating in the bowl, and there is only the sound of eating noodles for a while.Jiang Yuan ate the slowest, and when he was about to finish eating, Granny Yu suddenly made a sound.

"Okay, let's go, go back to the inn the same way, remember, don't come out at night." As he spoke, he went to Jiang Yuan and pulled him up and pushed him away.

Jiang Yuan was startled by the strength in her hand, and was thinking about asking what's the matter, when he looked up, he saw many shadowy people walking from the other side of the alley, and there were harsh chatter and laughter in the air.He turned his head to look at Xing Yu and the two, and found that they didn't seem to see that Yang Qian was giving money to Granny Yu, but Granny Yu pushed her away and waved vigorously at them. Then a transparent wall appeared between them and Granny Yu, and then he couldn't hear those voices.

Jiang Yuan felt that he was frightened, and he didn't even know how he got back to the inn.All he knew was that when he came back to his senses, Xing Yu was the only one in the room sitting on the bed opposite him and looking at him.

"What's wrong with you? Did you see something?"

Jiang Yuan was drinking water, when he heard Xing Yu say '噗呲', he spit out the water and sprayed Xing Yu's face, his face turned red from choking, Xing Yu didn't bother to wipe the water and quickly gave him comfort.

"Cough cough cough... I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

After he calmed down, Xing Yu took out a towel and wiped his face, and didn't dislike him at all.Jiang Yuan calmed down, now that he and Xing Yu are in the same group, he doesn't know anything, he can only see that the safety of life depends on Xing Yu to guarantee, and that Jia Zheng should have told him some of his own situation, Although it wasn't all of it, it was still exposed. At this time, he thought that he didn't need to cover up any more, as it would be detrimental to his own safety, so he might as well win some goodwill by telling the truth.Then Jiang Yuan told Xing Yu what he saw, but he would not be so stupid as to tell all about his situation, he just said that he could see it.Xing Yu guessed a little before, but what Jiang Yuan said still shocked him.

"Don't tell anyone else about your matter, don't say a word. Don't worry, I won't say it." Jiang Yuan was moved by Xing Yu's initiative.

Xing Yu made a gesture, walked lightly to the door and listened, then opened the door carefully and looked outside, the corridor outside was pitch black.He closed the door, sat next to Jiang Yuan, and the two analyzed the situation in a low voice.

"Grandma Yu is full of death energy."

"Dead air?" Xing Yu said, "Is she going to die? I don't think Granny Yu is a bad person, but when you say that, I think she is a little weird."

Jiang Yuan nodded cooperatively, "I think so too, and I think there is something wrong with Uncle Alai and the two brothers. I feel bad about their aura."

The two carefully bit their ears, and finally decided not to care about these weird things. Anyway, they will leave early tomorrow morning, and it will be fine not to stay in Guling Town on the return trip, but tonight they should be more careful.Xing Yu went to the opposite side and called Yang Qian to the room, and briefly told Yang Qian that something was wrong. It was safer for the three of them to be in the same room, and Xing Yu and Yang Qian were in charge of the night watch in turn.

The lights in the room were turned off, and the entire inn fell into a deathly silence. Occasionally, there would be a meow or two from upstairs: meow~meow~

It's just how creepy it sounds.
