Qingguan Nightmare Shadow

Chapter 60

Although the signboard of the inn is not removed, the regular customers in the past know that the shop has changed into a teahouse business; The disposal of the old rooms on the second floor, apart from the shop owner and the servants, no one else would care.

When there was no sound, in the bustling capital city, a huge gray space was vacated on the second floor of the "teahouse".Although this does not explain the exact problem, it is suspicious after all, so it is better to check.

Hearing this, the owner of the teahouse shook off Yunli's hand and called the servants to go upstairs quickly.At this time, Su Tong had already opened all the doors upstairs: the inn room, which has not received guests for a long time, everything is simple and tidy, and there is no dust after wiping it with hands.

Su Tong just carried the cloth to enter the door, the owner of the teahouse rushed up in front of him, brought the servants to kneel all the way, kowtowed: "Lord Fuguo."

Yun Li went upstairs, but didn't see anything in Su Tong's eyes, so he leaned on the railing to watch the play.The tea drinkers below heard the movement above, looked up, and stretched their necks to find out.Yun Li winked at the storyteller, and waved his hands. The storyteller twitched his brows, and then he slapped the gavel very cooperatively, and raised his voice: "Last time, we talked about the old tree monster Bewitching the gods, the end is bleak, we know that the flowing water is not smooth, the long wind is not calm..." Yun Li secretly supported his forehead, but in order to divert the tea drinkers' attention, he had no choice but to let him talk nonsense.

Su Tong nodded, making those who knelt exaggeratedly stand up. Unexpectedly, before he stepped into the door, he was pulled back two steps by the teahouse owner.

"My lord Fuguo personally inspected the shop, I'm really terrified. I don't know what Su Fuguo wants to investigate? Just say it, just say it, I will cooperate if I can, and I will help if I can help. I just beg my lord not to say nothing. Leave me alone and guess, I really can't stand it."

Su Tong: "Find someone."

"May I ask which prisoner escaped?"

Su Tong didn't answer, and the owner of the teahouse didn't ask any more questions. He just said "it's easy to find someone", and immediately asked the servant behind him to lock the windows of all the rooms, and then opened the cabinets and boxes one by one. "My lord, we can do the clumsy physical work for you. For the rest of the delicate work, please let your lord take a close look at it yourself, so that those of us with poor eyesight will not miss the big living person hiding in a certain place." gone."

Yunli: "You opened the cabinets and boxes, and you didn't see anyone. Does that mean you really haven't hidden anyone?"

The boss said: "Young master, it's good that you believe us. If you really don't believe it, you can go to each room and have a look, and then discuss whether the shop is sheltering fugitives. It's not too late."

"It took so long, why not late?"

"Young master, you must be clear. The windows are locked and the doors are guarded by us. If a person runs away blatantly, Master Su Fuguo will not know? You will not know, young master? With so many eyes covering the shop, will you not know?" ?”

"What if he goes through the wall?"

"The little boy was joking."

Yun Li randomly picked a few rooms and walked in to have a look, and suddenly saw that the table in one room was not a porcelain vase, but a porcelain bowl.There is "residual soup" mixed with black particles in the bowl.Yun Li smiled and greeted the boss to come and see, the boss shivered because of his smile, standing a few feet away from him, said: "What is this?"

"Ask me? Then I'll tell you what this is." Yunli put the bowl on the table for a meal, "This is a bowl of glutinous rice balls, stuffed with black sesame seeds." The owner of the teahouse looked at the bowl and then at Yunli, "Ah ?” There was a sound.Yunli: "The sesame filling is leaked, the glutinous rice balls are finished, and there is only one mouthful of soup left, isn't it like this?" Meals, washing dishes? You still have to guess for a long time what the guests are eating?"

The boss came to his senses and quickly smiled and said, "Young master is turning the corner. I'm not very smart. If I was not careful, I was almost regarded as a suspect for harboring criminals and brought back for interrogation by the young master."

A servant came up and said, "The second floor is closed in October. We cleaned it once, but we were careless and left only the leftover bowl from the last batch of guests." Yun Li put the bowl back to its original place: "This bowl It’s so small, I can’t even see it.” The boy wiped his sweat and said, “There are porcelain vases on every table, but there is no bottle on this table, but there is a bowl in the middle, which is easy to see, so we skip it. "

On the side, Su Tong was afraid that his hands would not be obvious, so he changed the white cloth and re-wiped the table, chairs, bedside and other places.After wiping it again, the white cloth is as clean as new.Yun Li leaned towards the boss and said, "Everyone is not tired of serving tea guests on weekdays. When you have time, you still go to the room where the door is not open to clean?"

"Young master, didn't you say it all just now? If there is an accident in the world, I still have to rely on these rooms for dinner. Besides, if the guests want to stay overnight, wouldn't it be better for me to have a room ready?" ?”

"Stay overnight? Are you drunk from drinking tea or are you addicted to listening to books?"

The owner of the teahouse said sternly: "Young master, the facts are the facts. No matter how much you ask, my words will only end here...Master Fuguo, you have a heavy workload. There are no clues here, please..." Yunli saw Su Tong Looking at something serious, he interrupted the boss and said, "It's not too heavy, it's not too heavy. The emperor set up the post of assistant country to let them pay attention to these inexplicable things."

The boss seemed to feel that Yunli talked too much as a "follower", so he couldn't help but sized him up suspiciously.

"Master Fuguo, young master, you checked the shop, you have to check the inns next door, right? To put it bluntly... the people I come here are idlers who want to pass the time in the capital. , near and far, familiar faces and new faces, is the real mixed bag." The boss said, "If I were a fugitive, I would have to live in a place with a lot of people, how could I find a quiet place to hide?"

Yunli: "Su Fuguo was chosen here for this reason."

"..."

Su Tong was still looking at something by the window.

Yun Li approached and asked, "What's wrong?"

Su Tong: "The window was opened a crack, I opened it myself." The owner of the teahouse came over and was about to speak, Yun Li gave him a sideways look to keep him quiet, at the same time Su Tong said: "It's not the wind." The boss swallowed I spit, but I have nothing to say.Yun Li flicked a green light and closed the door, and the boys outside thought that Fu Guo and the unidentified young master were going to close the trial of their boss, so they kept silent and did not dare to speak out.

The boss said in a trembling voice: "My lord, young master, if you want to say that I have committed something, isn't it just that I didn't declare to change the brand for convenience? I have always been honest, and I can't help, I can't help you two..."

Yunli: "You can do it! We want to detain another person in the room, not you."

"Another, another one?"

"Ever heard of 'ghost man'?"

"I……"

Yun Li drew out his sword and said with a smile, "A guy who can hide, walk through walls, and likes to pick skins."

The boss looked terrified, but he didn't seem to be terrified because he heard that the "ghost man" had entered his inn.A sense of hopelessness suddenly appeared on his face, and he slammed his knees on the ground, knelt down and said: "Master Fuguo, young master, no, no! Absolutely no!" Su Tong put the sword on the ground, brow Twist slightly: "No?"

"I heard that the 'Ghost Man' kills people like hemp, and he has traveled all over the five states, and no one has caught him yet. If it is true as you said, that one came to my shop. It seems that he is just I want to find a place to live for a while, and I won’t do other things.” The boss spoke quickly, “If the two of you startle him, and you can’t bring him to justice, causing him to kill, the shop will What should I do?! And, besides, the two of you are also in danger..."

Before he finished speaking, Yunli and Su Tong did think that Nie Qiu was not easy to deal with, and were hesitating. The servants outside the door heard the voices in the room clearly, and one of them suddenly said in a crying voice : "Master Su, young master, since you are here for this matter, please save us!"

The boss's pupils constricted, and he rushed to the door and shouted palely, "Shut up!"

The young man said to himself: "In October, a wizard covered in blood came to our boss and asked him to make room for him. Wei, threatened us that before he wanted to leave, if it was because of us When people found out, they cut off our heads and fed them to the dogs... Mr. Su, young master, no matter whether he is a "ghost" or not, we have nothing to do with him. You find it If you leave him, don’t leave him alone!”

The boss let out a muffled growl, and kicked the door, pretending that the strength could be transmitted outside the door, he said angrily: "We will all be killed by you!"

Yun Li dragged him to the side: "You stick to that guy, aren't you afraid that he'll kill you and keep his mouth shut after he's lived enough?!"

The boss squatted down with his head in his arms, and cried, "Little master, what do you think I should do... What do you think I should do?" Yun Li dragged a stool to ask him to sit properly, and said, "You think about yourself It's so sad, let me tell you, your loss is nothing more than a few months of rent, and you can't lose your life." "What, what do you mean..." "Killing you is loud and useless, why did he kill you? "Yun Li held the bowl on the table and shook it in front of the boss's eyes, and said: "Look, he is so poor that he can only afford this, and he doesn't play tricks on free accommodation. How could he go in such a cold day? Do you sleep under the bridge?"

The boss opened his eyes wide, tears streaming down his face, and then he did it.

Yunli: "You go out first and entertain the guests well."

"what?"

"You reminded me that that guy is not easy to tie. Let's not fight today, we just have a good talk; if the talk breaks down, we still have to fight..." Yun Li pushed the boss on the shoulder, "I'll give you a signal At that time, it will not be too late for you to close the store as an individual customer." The boss was still in shock, Yun Li whistled, and said, "How about this signal?"

"Can……"

Yun Li nodded to Su Tong, Su Tong lowered his eyes, opened the door a little, and let the teahouse owner go out through the crack.Helplessly, the boss's belly was full of luck, and he couldn't squeeze it out for a long time.Yunli was about to give him a hand to help, "Broken Sword" suddenly buzzed, blocked in the air, and made a sound that seemed familiar to "Air".

"Broken Sword" changed its posture and knocked several times, and the sword body, which was finally restored, suffered another loss.

That wooden ball!

"Missing Tooth and Broken Sword" suddenly flew inward, as if forcing something that wanted to escape through the crack of the door back into the room.

The boss didn't leave, turned around and knelt down on the ground again, and said: "Sir, I saw and heard it too. I didn't tell others that you were here, but Mr. Su and the young master found out by themselves." He was talking , A spell in the room melted into flames, and the broken wizard who used the spell to disappear immediately appeared.

The wooden ball and "Broken Sword" were facing each other.

Nie Qiu seemed to be very talkative, and said with a smile: "I don't blame you, I don't blame you. My little brother has great powers. He came to me with a heart, and I couldn't hide it anywhere." Yun Li asked the owner of the teahouse to get up and urged him Take everyone downstairs to get busy.The boss was still dreaming, and was helped downstairs by the panicked servants.

Nie Qiu hooked his fingers, and the wooden ball closed his "mouth" very reluctantly, and got into his sleeve. "Broken Sword" reflexively chased him for a while, then checked his face, restrained his breath and returned to Yunli's side.Nie Qiu stuffed the bowl of glutinous rice balls that he had forgotten into the cabinet and closed it. When the table was refreshed, he set up the stools and sat down first, then asked Yunli and Su Tong to sit down quickly.

"..."

Nie Qiu: "Brother, I'm so happy to hear that you want to talk to me. After holding it in for several months, mushrooms are about to grow out of my mouth."

Yun Li pulled Su Tong to sit down, and said coldly: "Then you were going to run out just now, did you want to sell vegetables to entertain us?"

Nie Qiu intertwined her fingers and dragged her chin. Leaving aside the "vegetable selling" section, she smiled even wider: "I'm so happy to see my little brother and Mr. Su doing well... Hey, little brother, you all have children now." ?" Seeing that Wizard Po's hand was about to touch the bag, Yun Li was astonished at the other party's perception ability, and at the same time, Yun Li turned sideways to avoid it, protecting Yu Yu.

The broken wizard retracted his arms, spread his hands and said: "Okay, don't touch, don't touch." The three of them were silent for a while, and Nie Qiu stood up with the table, leaned close to Yunli, and looked at it for a while; Yunli knew what he was looking at, Seeing that he hesitated to speak, he said lightly, "I know, I'm being followed by a ghost." Nie Qiu opened her eyes wide: "Then brother, do you know what kind of ghost is following you?"

Nie Qiu looked quite surprised, Yun Li couldn't guess how much he saw, so he settled down and shook his head.

"Brother, this ghost is not simple."

Nie Qiu only felt that the imprint on Izumo's forehead was not shallow, but he couldn't say anything useful for a long time, so he sighed, as if he wanted to give up.Su Tong frowned, and her slightly trembling voice carried the implication of an order: "Diagnose." Nie Qiu froze when she sat back, and went forward to look again with the mentality of trying, her expression was rarely serious, He still said with a smile: "Mr. Su's words are strange. He knows that I have never cured anyone, but he is relieved to let my little brother be treated by me."

Yun Li heard that he was deliberately provoking Su Qiuguang's affairs, and didn't look at Su Tong's reaction, and stepped on the broken wizard while releasing the eye knife.Nie Qiu didn't move at all, and his tone was even more unbearable: "What's wrong with my little brother? His strength has become so weak that he doesn't even have the energy to step on people?" Lifting his index finger, "Shhh-" he said, "It's not a single ghost that's staring at you, but a group of ghosts."

"I really can't see anything else... Brother, I advise you to hurry up..." Nie Qiu lowered her voice, "'Go up' as soon as possible to avoid it."

Yunli: "You don't need to tell me."

……

"Hey, wait, Mr. Su, you also turn around and let me have a look." Nie Qiu got up and walked around in front of Su Tong, not afraid of being beaten, smelled Su Tong's clothes, "Mr. Su, you are also black and dyed." Evil aura, but it's different from my little brother's symptoms." Yunli never thought that Su Tong would be haunted by evil spirits, and he didn't care to think about why he was here to be seen by the Poor Wizard, and asked, "What kind of evil aura?"

"Well, this evil spirit, it goes up like this, and then down like this..." Nie Qiu said to herself, gesturing along Su Tong's arm and shoulder with her finger, and finally stopped on his cuff.Nie Qiu glanced at Su Tong, struggled for a while, and finally plucked up the courage to grab his wrist, and said in a deep voice, "Master Su, please open your hand."

Su Tong spread out his palms, and it was clear that there was nothing there, but Nie Qiu seemed to see something on it, both excited and shocked, and immediately raised it seriously, clenched his fists, and pulled out the "evil energy" in Su Tong's body and grabbed it in his hands.

Nie Qiu: "Ne Cang, he knows that Mr. Su is coming to see me? When did he meet you before?" Without waiting for an answer, he continued: "Brother, Mr. Su, I haven't asked yet. I've brought you here...Little brother, bow your head!"

Before Nie Qiu reminded, Yunli had already noticed something different.As a result of his "lowering his head", a black light was unhindered and went towards Nie Qiu face to face.Nie Qiu dodged it in time, and the black light burst out of the window, but it circled in again; but the returning black light did not target anyone, it only formed a ball in mid-air, hanging without threat.

Inadvertently, Nie Qiu let go of his hand, the thing he just grabbed overflowed, floated up, and merged bit by bit with the black light ball that suddenly appeared.

At some point, there was another person in the room.

Nie Qiu sacrificed her own spell and burned the opponent's invisibility spell.

The figure of that person appeared, grabbed the ball of light in the air, "crushed it", and took the scattered black fragments into his body.He stood among the other three, although his face was cold, but because of his natural appearance, he gave people the impression of being well-behaved.However, it was this "well-behaved" junior who forced the senior to wander around in the five states of Xia.

Nie Qiu's expression changed several times, but gradually, some gloomy things were thrown away by him, leaving only a warm and distressing smile.

Nie Cang took a step forward, and Nie Qiu didn't intend to back down, and said with a smile: "Things in the capital are very expensive, if you can't find me again, I will really be so poor that I can't afford to eat."

Without further ado, Nie Cang used those black gases to form a long sword, and stabbed with his hand raised.Everyone saw that the clumsy-looking wooden ball swung out suddenly and blocked the sword for Nie Qiu, intact.

"Brother, I don't expect you to remember me as a person."

Nie Qiu inexplicably said such a sentence, stuffed something into Yunli's pouch, then turned around, and actually held the "sword" stabbed by Nie Cang with her bare hands.

As the breeze blew, the brothers and sisters both disappeared, and nothing happened in the room.
