Master Emperor, your wife is too poisonous

Chapter 629 Can't Really Be Human

Before Ye Lingxi responded, Lianqiao and Bai Zhi, who lived a little further away from them, also ran to Ye Lingxi's room in a hurry, holding hands.

Ye Lingxi saw the pale faces of the two of them, and knew that the two of them had also heard the commotion in the backyard.

Not only these few people, but people from other rooms in the inn also opened the doors one after another, and called Xiao Er to inquire about the situation.

"What did you all hear?"

Ye Lingxi tentatively asked Lianqiao and Bai Zhi, "Apart from the sound of knocking on wood, did you hear any other sounds?"

"It's not just knocking on wood." Bai Zhi held Lianqiao's hand tightly and said tremblingly, "I also heard the sound of nails scratching wood."

As soon as these words came out, there seemed to be a gust of cold wind blowing through the room, and the expressions on everyone's faces couldn't help but change.

Bai Zhi stretched out her hand, scratched the door frame with her nails, and made a piercing sound, "It's like this."

"Okay, okay." Ye Lingxi quickly waved her hand to interrupt her, "I just thought that there might be something wrong with the goods in the box, but when you two said it, I was going to sweat. "

"Let's not scare ourselves." She said, "Since there is such a big commotion, if we don't find out the matter, we don't want to sleep peacefully tonight. You all go back to your room first, and Jia Fan and I will go back together. Go down and have a look."

"Mother, I want to be with you!" Xiao Bao hugged her arm and did not let go.

Ye Lingxi lowered her eyes and glanced at him, "What if there is really a ghost in that box, and when the box opens, it suddenly pounces out..."

Ye Lingxi deliberately threatened him and wanted him to back down, Xiaobao was really startled and shivered, but she didn't have the slightest intention to back down, instead she held her tightly and refused to let go, "Then I want to protect you by my mother's side."

Ye Lingxi's heart softened, and she rubbed his little head with a smile, "Okay, mother is very happy if you have this kind of heart, I don't know what's going on next, I'll bring you and get points I don't want to protect you, but it's inconvenient."

"You are obedient and stay here obediently, mother will be back in a while."

Ye Lingxi patted him on the back to signal him to let go.

Although Xiaobao was a little reluctant, he also knew that he really couldn't help much, and would be a hindrance instead, so he let go of his hand resentfully in the end, and walked to Changsheng's side listlessly.

Ye Lingxi swept over the people in the room, and ordered again worriedly: "Don't go back to your own room, stay in my room and take care of each other."

"Jia Fan, you can send someone over to guard the room, don't let something go wrong when we leave."

After Ye Lingxi arranged everything properly, she dressed carefully, put on a cloak to keep out the cold, and followed Jia Fan downstairs.

The movement in the backyard was too obvious. When Ye Lingxi and the others went downstairs, a large group of people had already surrounded the first floor, and the shopkeeper was trying to calm the emotions of the guests.

"Everyone, I'm really sorry. There seems to be something wrong with the goods of some customers. I have notified them, and they also went to check. I promise that it will be ready soon."

"What the hell is going on in the backyard? The sound is so scary. I said shopkeeper, your shop is not really haunted, is it? Or is it a black shop?"

When a guest questioned it, the shopkeeper's face changed anxiously, "Oh, sir, you can't talk nonsense, our inn has been open in Donglai City for decades, how could it be a black shop! It’s really just a problem with the goods brought by the customer, not a ghost.”

"Since it's just a matter of goods, why don't we go and have a look together?"

Ye Lingxi spoke suddenly.

Most of the people who came down to ask questions this evening were men. Suddenly a woman's voice came, and everyone couldn't help being a little surprised, and turned their heads to look at her.

Ye Lingxi's whole body was tightly wrapped by the cloak, only one face was exposed, and Jia Fan was guarding her side with a long sword in his hand, so it didn't look like a good thing. Everyone didn't dare to look at her too much.

The innkeeper recognized Ye Lingxi as a guest who had booked several rooms, and his attitude became more respectful. When he saw someone, he bent down first, and then continued: "Madam, someone in the backyard has already passed by." It’s been dealt with, if you’re really worried, you can go and have a look in person.”

The shopkeeper said: "Our inn is open for business, and we will never deceive our guests."

Ye Lingxi nodded slightly, and didn't say much to the shopkeeper. She gave Jia Fan a wink and motioned him to follow, and then walked straight towards the backyard.

A few guests with good deeds bravely followed her to the backyard, but Ye Lingxi didn't stop her.

Jia Fan followed closely beside Ye Lingxi from the beginning to the end, with a serious expression on his watch, not giving anyone a chance to get close to Ye Lingxi.

When they walked to the backyard, there were three people in the backyard who were busy untying the ropes tied to the box.

Seeing a group of them enter the backyard, the three of them immediately looked at them, and said very unfriendlyly: "We are busy handling the goods, what are you going to do, don't stand here and get in the way!" !"

"Go back, all go back!"

One of them came over, raised his hand and was about to push Ye Lingxi who was walking in front, "It's big night, why don't you join in the fun, don't be afraid of death..."

Before he finished speaking, and before his hand touched Ye Lingxi, the long sword in Jia Fan's hand came out of its sheath with a bang, and the sharp edge of the sword touched the man's neck, "Show respect to my wife!" point."

Jia Fan's voice was not high, but the words he said were full of warning.

That person was also frightened by Jia Fan's sudden attack, and he froze in place, without the arrogance he had before, he didn't even know what to say.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, the other two immediately rushed forward and pulled the man back. Ye Lingxi also slightly raised his hand. Jia Fan put down the long sword knowingly, but did not put it back into its sheath, his eyes were always tight. Congealed on those three people.

"The noise made by your goods made us so noisy that we couldn't sleep well. We thought the inn was haunted."

Ye Lingxi said: "We just came here to see what's in your box, just for peace of mind. Go ahead and clean up your things, we just need to make sure there's nothing weird in the box, and then we'll leave. embarrassing you."

The three people looked at each other, exchanged glances, and finally said nothing, turned around and continued to untie the rope on the box.

Ye Lingxi gathered the cloak on her body, and didn't move forward any further, just stood there not too far away, watching them tossing and tossing.

I don't know what is in the box, it seems to be able to hear the movement outside, and when the people outside talk, the things inside will become more noisy.

Ye Lingxi is very close to the box now, and the voice is much clearer than when she was upstairs.

This time she also realized that what Xu Fengshan said was true, besides the sound of knocking on wood, there were indeed other sounds, which sounded very similar to a woman's sobbing.

Ye Lingxi narrowed her eyes slightly, glanced at the big box that was pressed at the bottom, her eyes darkened slightly.

It's not really a human being, is it?
