Chapter 73 Ecstasy

"I'm at home, waiting for my boyfriend to come home." Jian Qingzhu said.

Every time I hear the word "boyfriend," Xu Xingxing heaves a sigh of relief and says, "Waiting for brother in vain."

Jian Qingzhu laughed.

The sound was a little deep and gentle, and it came through the current and went straight into his ears. Xu Xingxing felt that he was about to react.

For the next minute, the two of them didn't speak, they could only hear each other's breathing, and there was an indescribable sense of tranquility.

"Did you die?" Xu Xingxing suddenly came to his senses and said, "I'm looking for a place to live."

Jian Qingzhu said "um", but neither of them moved. After a while, Xu Xingxing said again: "Then I'll hang up."

"En." Jian Qingzhu replied again.

Just as Xu Xingxing took the phone away from his ears, there was a soft voice from the other end: "I miss you."

He was quick and hung up before he realized it.

Huang Ying leaned over: "What? Lost your soul?"

Xu Xingxing raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

Huang Ying smiled: "Let's find a place to rest for a while and talk about it later."

Xu Xingxing nodded.

The two of them came out of the school gate and walked down the main road, which was full of hotels, but they hadn't opened yet.Finally, when they reached the end of the street, they saw a woman at the door of a hotel with a trash can in her hand.

Huang Ying stepped forward: "Miss Boss, do you have hourly rooms?"

The proprietress looked at the two of them hesitantly, Xu Xingxin said no way, there is not even a vacant room in such a big town?

If you have to wait until someone else checks out, it's better to just give him a stick and forget it.

Fortunately, the proprietress only hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Yes."

The two followed to the front desk to open a room, and the proprietress registered the information of the two and asked, "Where are you two from?"

Huang Ying is a liar who doesn't write drafts, a pure and kind girl who can act as soon as she says she wants to, and she smiled generously: "He's from the provincial city university, and I'm here with my brother to gather folk songs, and I'm going to do my homework."

"What style is it?" the proprietress asked.

Huang Ying laughed again: "I'm a student of painting. I just had a holiday. The teacher asked me to draw some different customs and customs. An uncle recommended this town to me, saying it's beautiful here."

The proprietress became interested when she heard it, and talked about the pagoda here, the archway there, and the sculptures in the center of the town are also very beautiful.

Having said that, Xu Xingxing suddenly interrupted and asked, "Auntie, what's the name of your town?"

The proprietress, who was talking non-stop, got stuck, as if she didn't understand what Xu Xingxing was saying, and continued to tell how clean her hotel was after a few seconds.

Xu Xingxing and Huang Ying looked at each other and said a few more words, the proprietress suddenly stopped and asked Xu Xingxing: "Brother, what did you ask just now?"

"Hehe." Xu Xingxing smiled, "I'm asking if there are many tourists here."

The proprietress smiled: "There are many, there are not many, but this year there are fewer."

"Why?" Huang Ying asked.

The proprietress sighed: "I don't know who is talking nonsense on the Internet, saying that our town is unlucky, the feng shui is not good, or something, and gradually no one comes. This is what my daughter said, and I don't usually go online. .”

"Fengshui is not good?" Xu Xingxing opened his eyes and said nonsense, "What's wrong with the beautiful mountains and clear waters? It looks good to me, surrounded by auspiciousness."

The proprietress nodded complacently, and Huang Ying asked again: "Madam proprietress, we came here yesterday and stayed at another hotel. We spent a whole day doing the show, why didn't we see that there are children in this town?"

The proprietress was still smiling at first, but when she heard this, she pulled her face, handed over the ID cards of the two people, and knocked on the bar to urge: "206 and 207, single room [-], deposit [-], check out before twelve o'clock, every people."

Huang Ying stuck out her tongue, Xu Xingxing took out her mobile phone and handed over the money.

The two got on the elevator, Xu Xingxing turned his head to look at the proprietress, and frowned: "I think there is something wrong with the proprietress."

"Is it a human?" Huang Ying asked immediately.

Xu Xingxing gave her a meaningful look: "It's a human being."

Huang Ying looked at him calmly: "Is there any possibility of misreading?"

"No." Xu Xingxing said, "It's definitely a human being, but it's a bit evil, and I can't see what's evil for the time being."

Huang Ying stretched her waist: "I have an idea. Let's sleep for a few hours before we talk. See you at the door at ten o'clock."

Xu Xingxing probably knew what she meant, and although he felt it was inappropriate, he still nodded.

After returning to the room, he seized the time to take a shower. Xu Xingxing lay down on the bed with his eyes squinted. After thinking for a while, he suddenly felt uncomfortable, and then got up to look around.

Finally, I walked around the room, took out my phone and plugged it into the charger, and sent a message to Jian Qingzhu: "If you have time, help me go to Xia's house to see if Xia Gang is at home."

The other side responded with "yes" without asking why.

Xu Xingxing thought for a while, and typed the truth: "I think I saw Xia Gang, and he is in the town where we took the exam."

It took a long time for Jian Qingzhu to reply this time, saying: "The news from Zhihe, Xia Gang is not at home, Aunt Mei and Xia Ting are both fine."

Xu Xingxing was almost confirmed, and the phone vibrated again. Jian Qingzhu said, "Have you been up all night? Hurry up and take a rest."

"Okay." Xu Xingxing smiled at the screen.

Maybe it was Jian Qingzhu's words that made him feel at ease, he fell asleep after setting the alarm clock, this time he didn't have a dream.

When the alarm clock rang, there was a knock on the door.

Xu Xingxing got out of bed and went to open the door. Huang Ying appeared with two pieces of paper and said, "Hurry up, hurry up."

"Huh?" Xu Xingxing was a little confused.

Huang Ying pushed him away and broke in, saying, "You know what I'm going to do, right? We need to use some forbidden techniques, maybe it's a foul, and we have to find a way to divert the elf's attention."

Xu Xingxing understood, and said with a smile: "It's not that maybe, it's definitely a foul. What you said now and what happened last night should have been reported to the examiner by the elf, right?"

Huang Ying said proudly: "That's okay. You will know what happened last night sooner or later. We'll talk about it when we go back. The key is to get the words out of the proprietress first. I've thought about it. I just used a fairy lock outside. If the elf accuses me when I go back, I'll say it's because I want to take a bath."

Xu Xingxing: "...I didn't think of this question when I was taking a shower."

Huang Ying covered her mouth and smiled: "What's the matter, you just did nothing else."

Xu Xingxing smiled, and suddenly asked, "Have you ever seen an elf?"

"No, but something was indeed trapped after the immortal lock was released." Huang Ying folded the paper while talking, paused, and suddenly turned to look at Xu Xingxing, "You mean..."

Xu Xingxing sat on the bed: "Not necessarily, but I really didn't feel the presence of other things. The talisman paper was always looking at us. To put it bluntly, it was an amulet with a tracking spell on it. As long as we don't use magic, The spiritual pass should not be found."

Huang Ying clicked her tongue for a long time, and said: "Lingguan is too much of a thief. In fact, it is inevitable to use sorcery when handling cases. Hahaha, I'll wait until I become a celestial master and use it in a righteous way."

As she spoke, she quickly folded two paper figurines, took out the amulet on her body, and pasted it on one of the paper figurines.

Xu Xingxing had no choice but to take out the talisman and said, "You are so courageous. Are you afraid that we will be eaten by some monster so we can't call for help?"

"How can it be so powerful? Let's leave for a while, and after asking questions, we will change to a real person." Huang Ying snorted, "Come on, your spiritual power is stronger, and illusion will do."

Xu Xingxing chanted the mantra, and the two pieces of paper made two puffs, and they turned into two sitting people.

Xu Xingxing was startled when he saw another self for a while, took a picture after looking at it for a while, and finally snapped his fingers: "Handsome!"

"Let's go!" Huang Ying glared at him, and pulled him into her own room opposite.

Huang Ying hid herself behind the door, Xu Xingxing went down to the first floor, there was a young girl behind the bar, the proprietress was still there just now.

"Auntie." Xu Xingxing called out, "The air conditioner in my sister's room can't be turned on, can I trouble you to have a look?"

When the proprietress saw him, she probably thought that she had talked too much in the morning, and she didn't have a good face. Finally, she got up when she saw his sincere face.

The door was ajar, Xu Xingxing opened the door to let her go in, and at the same time called out: "Sister?"

"Ah." Huang Ying responded, raising her hand and waving.

The proprietress followed the voice and turned her head, just in time to be covered by the ecstasy powder that rushed towards her face.

Xu Xingxing hurriedly supported him and kicked the door: "It's too much, too much."

Huang Ying showed her figure and said with a smile, "Not much, not much."

The two put the proprietress on the chair, and Xu Xingxing said: "Hurry up, there is a girl downstairs when I go down, and I will be suspicious later."

"Catch one by one, catch one by two." Huang Ying waved her little hand, and sat on the side of the bed, facing the proprietress.

After a minute or so, the proprietress blinked.

Huang Ying cleared her throat: "Miss Boss, what's your name?"

The proprietress replied, "Chen Hongxia."

Huang Ying nodded: "Miss Boss, what's the name of your town?"

The proprietress looked at her in confusion as if she didn't understand her question.

Xu Xingxing felt that something was wrong, so he repeated it in another way: "Auntie, what kind of town is your town?"

This one answered: "It's a ghost town."

Xu Xingxing was startled, and asked again: "Are you a human or a ghost?"

The proprietress stared blankly at the front: "Human."

Huang Ying answered, "Are there many ghosts in this town?"

The proprietress nodded: "Yes."

Huang Ying: "Where are the ghosts?"

The proprietress: "It's everywhere."

Huang Ying and Xu Xingxing looked at each other, and asked the key question: "Why can't people in this town have children?"

The proprietress: "The child is the primer of the medicine, and the unborn one is the best."

Xu Xingxing was shocked and asked, "Who wants the medicine primer?"

The proprietress: "I don't know."

Huang Ying said "My day" in a low voice, and then asked: "Who cares about you in the town?"

The proprietress was confused again, unable to explain why, and finally replied: "I don't know."

Huang Ying: "The mayor?"

The proprietress: "The mayor is just helping out."

There were footsteps outside, and Xu Xingxing was startled: "Sister Ying, hurry up."

Huang Ying thought for a while and said, "Ask."

Xu Xingxing sat down abruptly, and asked the original question again: "What's the name of this town?"

The landlady's eyes were cloudy, and she looked straight ahead, unable to answer.

Bang bang, the door was slammed.

Xu Xingxing got up, pinched the boss lady's shoulders, and recited the invisibility spell.Huang Ying went to open the door, and there was a young man standing outside.

Seeing someone coming to open the door, the young man said nervously, "Hello, are you here to take the exam?"

"Yes." Huang Ying was not polite at all, "Who are you?"

The young man was a little anxious: "My name is Chen Peng. I saw you and your companion downstairs just now. I guess you are also here to take the exam. I got separated from my brother and I can't find anyone else, so I can only ask you."

Huang Ying thought for a while: "Can you wait for me downstairs? I'll call my brother."

Chen Peng nodded hurriedly, Huang Ying closed the door, and when the footsteps outside gradually faded away, she waved to the bedside.

Xu Xingxing showed his figure: "Wake her up?"

Huang Ying said "hmm": "This medicine powder is only effective for a quarter of an hour. After a long time, it will easily become an idiot."

She went over to uncover a small bottle and let the proprietress smell it.

Two seconds later, the proprietress's eyes became clear, and Huang Ying said with a smile, "Thank you, proprietress, the air conditioner is now working, please come and run."

The proprietress looked at the two people suspiciously, and remembered that they were indeed here to see the air conditioner, so she said, "Oh, my old problem of dizziness has recurred. It's good, I'm leaving."

"Thank you, lady boss." Xu Xingxing said behind his back.

After they left, the two quickly arrived at Xu Xingxing's room, took the talisman paper from the dummy and put it back in their pockets, discussed a few words, and went downstairs with their things on their backs.

Chen Peng was wandering in front of the counter when he saw two people coming down, he hurriedly greeted them and waited beside them.

When Xu Xingxing went to check out, he followed Huang Ying all the time, and only after leaving the hotel did he whisper, "I think this town is weird."

"Well, that's right." Xu Xingxing said, "The whole town's surname is Chen, right?"

Chen Peng said in a little panic, "My surname is also Chen."

Huang Ying looked at Chen Peng with a smile: "Why did you lose someone when you just entered the town?"

Chen Peng shook his head: "It wasn't just now, no, it was just now. After we came in last night, we couldn't find the hotel..."

"Huh?" Huang Ying interrupted him, "When did you come in?"

Chen Peng looked a little confused, and replied: "Yesterday, yesterday. What's wrong?"
