second in the world

Chapter 12 The sound of wind and rain at night

I interviewed and asked some people, and everyone said that there was nothing unusual, and everything was as before.It was getting late and the two of them were tired, so Long Che thought about going back to the inn to rest.

Originally, I wanted to go back to the "Floating Fragrance Leisurely", but when I got closer, I found that it was closed. Thinking about it, after all, there was a murder case.

So they bought a few steamed buns and went to a small inn.The owner of the shop is an elderly woman, when she saw the two entered the inn, her face was full of happiness. "You two, can you stay at the hotel?" the old woman said kindly.

"Don't live in the store, so it's robbery?" Long Che said for no reason. "Look at what the young master said, the two young masters are so particular about handsomeness, how could they engage in the business of robbing houses." The old lady answered the words smoothly.

"Yo, I didn't see it, you're pretty good at talking when you're old, I like to hear that." Long Che smiled happily, but the old lady was obviously unhappy, why would he say that she was old in front of her?

"Two people, one room, how do you count?" Long Che asked while whistling. "If you stay for one night, it's one tael of silver." The old woman forced a smile.

Yan Yuyang hurriedly said: "Two rooms." "Two taels of silver for two rooms." The old woman said casually.

"Are you the one who robbed?" Long Che argued. "My lord, how do you talk? We all set it like this here. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask." The old woman was not happy.

"Okay, since you're about to dig into the ground and you won't live for a few years, I'll let you earn more." After speaking, he took out four taels of silver from his pocket and threw it into the air, and threw it into her pocket. on the counter.

The old woman was about to vomit blood out of anger, and said loudly: "Xiao Er, take these two guests to the guest room on the first floor." The two followed Xiao Er to the two adjacent rooms, and Long Che knew that they were still in love with each other. I'm not familiar with him, and I'm very annoying, so it's only natural that he doesn't want to share a room with me.

After entering the room, Long Che threw off his boots and walked barefoot on the floor.Stretching, he took out steamed buns from his sleeve and gnawed on them. After eating, he felt extremely tasteless, so he ran to Yan Yuyang's place and knocked on the door.Yan Yuyang opened the door, "Is there something wrong?"

"This steamed bun is too dry, I can't eat it. Do you have anything else to eat?" Long Che poked his head into his room. "If you're going to do it, drink more water." Yan Yuyang didn't intend to invite him in at all.

"Can I go in?" Long Che smiled playfully. "No, brother Long Che should go back to rest earlier." Yan Yuyang directly refused.

Long Che was devastated, so he had to go back dejectedly. As soon as he turned around, Yan Yuyang closed the door.Long Che looked at the steamed bun in his hand, and felt that it was even more unpalatable. When he got angry, he threw it as far as possible. "I don't want to eat, can't I?"

Going back to the house angrily, he himself felt strange, there is nothing to be angry about, before in the teacher's school, he didn't know how many times his brothers had said, how many times he had rejected him.He didn't think it was a big deal either.

He picked up the Changhong sword, rubbed his cheek against the hilt, and said in a sad tone: "Changhong, Changhong, you are the best for me, no matter what time you will never reject me."

Changhong Sword was rubbed by him like this, his whole body was itchy, moved unconsciously, and then rubbed against Long Che's neck, Long Che felt itchy, laughed "hee hee", his mood was much better, and then He hugged it and said, "Let's go to sleep."

As soon as he lay down on his head, before taking off his boots, Long Che saw a black figure flash past the door.He was alert at once, and fearing he might startle him, he threw himself out the rear window and tiptoed up to the roof.He lay down on the bricks and tiles, observing everything around him. Although it was night, there happened to be some moonlight.

Through the moonlight, he saw the man busy with something in the yard, which could be vaguely some flowers and plants.He was very surprised, "In the middle of the night, why don't you come to get these flowers and plants?"

These so-called flowers and plants are facing the guest houses of the inn guests. "It doesn't make sense." Long Che thought to himself.

Suddenly, a burst of tangy fragrance came, which made people feel refreshed and uncomfortable.As soon as Long Che heard it, he felt something was wrong, "This is..." He immediately sealed the acupoints.

"I didn't expect that there would be people planting soul-destroying grass in this kind of place." Long Che was startled.Suddenly he heard slight footsteps behind him, turned his head abruptly, only to realize that it was Yan Yuyang coming over, Yan Yuyang motioned him not to move, and lay down himself.

It seems that he also came out after smelling this unusual smell.The moon was rising high in the sky, and the moonlight was getting thicker, and the fragrance became stronger and stronger.

The man fiddled with it for a while and left.After the people left, the two of them came down from the roof and came to the flowers and plants. Long Che said: "It seems that this place is not simple. How can an ordinary inn grow so many dementor plants?"

There are more than a dozen dementor plants on the ground, surrounded by some other flowers and plants, which are usually invisible at all.

"Did you see that man's face clearly just now?" Yan Yuyang asked. "No, he covered his face. Did you see who it was?" Long Che asked back.

Yan Yuyang glanced at him and said, "Let's talk about it when we go back to the room." "Let's talk in your room." Long Che said with a smile.

Yan Yuyang remained silent.When he came to the front of the house, Yan Yuyang pushed the door. Long Che thought that he agreed without saying a word, so when he opened the door, he slid in under his arm like a loach.

Hook up a stool with your feet and sit down.Yan Yuyang closed the door, and continued: "I saw that man is thin and small, but his speed is very agile. He looks like a man, but he doesn't quite look like him."

Long Che said: "It's either a man or a woman, isn't the woman here just the old woman? Not only are things like Dementia Grass expensive, but they are also very rare, and it is even more difficult to grow them. You have to water them six times a day. It doesn’t matter once more or less, and it must be watered every two hours. In addition, it needs to be moistened with human blood every three days, otherwise it will wither. This old woman has no blood herself, so she came to raise these flowers and plants? It’s probably her hands The people who work underneath." Long Che said a lot in one breath.

"What exactly does he want to do by planting the Dementor Grass? Take people's souls, control people's souls, and then what?" Yan Yuyang was also at a loss.

"It's not easy to know what his motives are, just use the trick," Long Che hummed triumphantly. "You mean..." Yan Yuyang understood instantly.

"Yes!" Long Che winked at him. "In that case, then..." Yan Yuyang said.Long Che knew that he was going to drive him away, so he got up and said, "Then I'll go back to sleep." After speaking, he stepped out of the room and rolled back to his bed.

As the sky gradually dawned, faint rustling sounds were heard outside the house, Long Che and Yan Yuyang pretended to inhale the fragrance of the dementor grass, and passed out.

Long Che clearly heard the footsteps of several people in the upstairs room.After a long time, someone finally kicked open the door of his room, "You brat, class is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and you are very embarrassed, but since you have a good skin, I don't bother to argue with you."

Long Che could tell that it was the voice of the shopkeeper's old woman. "Well, you stinky old woman, you dare to turn your crooked thoughts on my young master." Long Che thought in his heart, "See how I will treat you later."

"Lift him up for me, be careful not to touch his face," the old woman ordered.A few servants at hand quickly came over and carried Long Che out, while Yan Yuyang was also carried away there.

As they walked, Long Che felt that the place they went was getting darker and darker, and the light was obviously not as bright as outside.Finally arrived at an underground dark room, the old woman pressed a mechanism, the door of the secret room opened slowly, and a roar came from inside.

Everyone was terrified when they heard the sound, although it was not the first time they had come here.But here still makes them feel timid.

"How is it? Did you bring what I want?" A rough man's voice came over.The old woman was afraid, and hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, calm down, the old man brought a few excellent faces here today, which one do you think you would choose?"

Long Che thought to himself: Co-authoring is selling people's skins. Dare to call Lao Tzu's attention, it seems that life is too long.A burly man was sitting on a chair in the secret room, and he looked at the four people lying on the ground.

"Well, even if you still have some discernment, you finally brought me some good stuff." Long Che was bold, squinting his eyes to look at the man on the chair. Young Master Long jumped.

If it weren't for the many years of wandering in the rivers and lakes, some experiences and insights, I'm afraid I would have screamed out.The man had messy hair, but he had no face or appearance, only a piece of bloody human skin and two eyes that were still dripping blood. In Long Che's view, the voice came from his stomach, and it was also It is "ventriloquism".

"Then do you want to keep them all?" the old woman asked. "Is there any need for you to talk about my affairs here? Go away, if you find something good, just send it over." The man said.

"I can finally be reborn, and I can have a beautiful face, hahaha. I have waited too long for this day." The man was excited.

Suddenly he took a closer look at Yan Yuyang who was lying on the ground, ran over excitedly, and praised: "There is still such a face in the world. Great, great, I don't have to change it anymore, it's him. "Just now he just glanced casually, so he didn't notice Yan Yuyang.

Long Che thought to himself: You are blind, I can't compare to that ice face.Just thinking about it, the man looked at Long Che again, "This is not bad, very good, this time it was done well. You don't have to come here again."

"Then can we go?" the old woman asked. "Go away." The man shouted.

Everyone left in a hurry and closed the door of the secret room.The man fetched a dagger, walked to Yan Yuyang's side, and was about to reach out to cut his face.

Before he could make a move, he was kicked away by Long Che.
