Midnight Restaurant

Chapter 241 The Missing Girl

I was very surprised when I saw the corpse. The clothes, figure, and white hair were exactly the same as the monster killed by Xiaoya during the day, and the face was really smashed.

But the question is, why are the snake scales missing from his face now?

Moreover, there were so many snake bite wounds and purple-black marks of snake venom on his body.

Curious, I squatted next to the corpse and took a closer look, and found that the corpse was surrounded by black energy, but I was sure that it was neither ghost energy nor resentment, and this matter really had nothing to do with ghosts.What exactly happened?
Thinking of this, I turned my head to look at Xiaoya, she also shook her head, obviously she could see it too, but she didn't know what it was.

At this time, another rough voice sounded from behind me, shouting to me: "Hey! You three, where are you from?!"

I turned around and saw a big man with a gloomy face.

"Oh, we are..." Before I could speak, Zhao Huanhuan's little loli explained something for us, and the sweat immediately pulled Zhao Huanhuan to his side. Visually, it seemed to be Zhao Huanhuan's father, or some other elder , in short, relatives.

"Instead, you go home and hide honestly at home, don't run around!"

Zhao Huanhuan nodded.

At this time, shouting came to us: "The village is so big, there is no need to let a child lead the way, you want to die, we still want to live well, go west, close to the foot of the mountain where you can see, the third household It's Master Zhao's house!"

After speaking, the big man left.

Now that another person died, the others were panicked, and all their attention was on the dead person, so no villagers asked about the identities of me, Yin Banxian, and Xiaoya, which saved a lot of trouble.Now that we know where Mr. Zhao lives, we are going to have a look there.

On the way, we found that half of the houses in the village had been demolished, and in some places, there were still equipment for mining.

"Hey, hey Xiaoye, you said this is so dangerous, and I can't help much as an ordinary person. How about I find a family first and give them some money. I will live first, and then you have good news. Let me know, how about it?" Yin Banxian began to back off again.

"Want to leave? That's fine. Anyway, that black fat man talked to me back then. If you don't want to contribute, don't want money, then I don't care." I sneered.

"You can do it, boy! Looking back, if Guo'er comes to live at your house again, I'll break your leg..."

"Hey, what I wish for, Uncle, quickly get your daughter away..." I grabbed Yin Banxian's hands excitedly.

"Fuck off..."

Yin Banxian shook off me.

"Master, the one in front should be the one." Xiaoya's voice temporarily stopped the conflict between Yin Banxian and me. I looked up, and I could indeed see the foot of the mountain behind the village in front of me. The roof of that house is really filled with black air!
It seemed that it was Zhao Erye's home, so I quickened my pace, Xiaoya followed closely behind.

Yin Banxian has no choice but to follow me for money.

The three of us arrived at the gate of the courtyard. We just looked at the dark courtyard, but when we got closer, we couldn't see anything clearly.

"It's really weird..." As I said that, I took out the proprietress's small silver knife.

A lot of things have happened in the past few months. I am becoming more and more cautious, and I am not quite like myself. If this was the past, I would definitely push the door open with my hands. Now, I use the proprietress to open the door. The small silver knife, a little bit forward to the door.

After the door showed a crack, but nothing happened, I breathed a sigh of relief, and then completely pushed the door open.

As soon as the door was opened, I discovered that the old pagoda tree planted in the middle of the yard, the trunk needs to be surrounded by three or four people visually, it is very thick, and I have some ideas.Moreover, the body of the tree is indeed covered with snakeskin as rumored, but the branches and leaves are still the branches and leaves of the locust tree.

Su Ya and I came under the locust tree, I took out my knife, stared at the tree trunk cautiously, and turned to Su Ya: "Is there...is there something possessed by a snake spirit?"

I admit, this question is very naive.

But I really can't find another adjective.

Su Ya looked at me and said, "No...but the aura above is really unusual, I guess, it might be in..."

As she said that, Su Ya's slender fingers pointed down to the root of the tree, and then she looked at me: "It should be under the root of the tree, there is something..."

I raised my eyebrows, under the roots of the tree...

At this time, Su Ya also touched the bark.

I was startled when I saw this move, and quickly pulled back Su Ya's hand: "What are you doing, isn't this thing dangerous?"

Su Ya shook her head: "It should be fine... because the master said that half-human, half-snake things like me have very keen senses. I can't feel danger, so there should be no danger."

This tree is not dangerous, so why does it have snake skin if it is not dangerous?
What's under the roots of the tree?
I frown...

"It's really all right? Then how do we get out the things under this tree root..."

"Dig." Su Ya only said one word.

In fact, I was a little nervous. After all, the village became weird only after the tree came out. Although Su Ya said that the tree was not dangerous, she felt that this thing was always a mysterious thing, and she couldn't believe it all. .Seeing that it is getting dark, I feel that even if I want to dig, it is not suitable to dig now. It is better to choose at noon, when the sun is full and the yang energy is sufficient. Even if there are some crooked things, the ability will be weakened, right?
I thought so.

So, I said to Su Zi and Yin Banxian: "Then get ready, tomorrow at noon, we will dig under the sun at twelve o'clock... Then, Xiaoya, you can stay in snake form when the time comes. I'm afraid it's too late to transform."

Su Ya nodded.

The one who was most displeased was Yin Banxian, who didn't even want to come, let alone dig a tree.

However, sometimes the charm of money is very strong. Yin Banxian had 1 reluctances in his heart, so he helped us go from house to house to find a shovel.With his walking around like this, and his personality that likes to brag about people, everyone in the village knows us now, thinking that we are some kind of masters who exorcise evil spirits.

Not everyone in this village has the same attitude as the old man at the entrance of the village during the day and Zhao Huanhuan's father.Many people still believe that this matter can be settled, so that night, some villagers came to us for dinner, calling out a half-immortal, an expert, or a living god.

It made me feel embarrassed.

And at this moment, someone suddenly broke into the home of the villager who invited us to dinner.

"Where are the three outsiders today! Where are people!! Come out, come out for me!!"

I was startled, and when I looked back, I found that it was a strong man with a shovel, the one in the daytime, Zhao Huanhuan's father.Because I still have memories of Zhao Huanhuan, so I also remember this person.When he came, he made a fuss and even beat me and Yin Banxian.After spending a long time, the man finally calmed down.

I was very curious at the time, why did this person insist on getting along with me?

"...No, buddy, I recruited you? What are you doing? Do you know that I want to use a shovel?"

In the end, this person said something that surprised me: "Where is my daughter?! Where is my daughter... Where did you get my daughter?!"

daughter?Isn't it the little girl in the daytime? She's so cute.

lost?

I frowned at that time, and I didn't get excited with this person anymore, so I quickly squatted down and asked, "No, buddy, what are you talking about? I don't understand, Huanhuan? She's gone?"

"Yes! It's gone... My daughter usually doesn't talk to outsiders, but I just met you and talked to you today! What kind of medicine did you give my daughter? She is gone now. She never leaves our house and The neighbors' houses, just today, left with you! Where did you get her? Are you the same as that old bastard Zhao Er! You bastards..."

I was taken aback when I heard this. I really think that girl Zhao Huanhuan is a bit abnormal. In this way, that child is indeed autistic.

However, I don't know why I just ignore me when I talk to you. Do I need an explanation for my charisma?

Of course, now is not the time to talk about this. I will first tell this guy not to worry, and then I will show that it really has nothing to do with me, and then I will discuss it with the villagers who are eating together, and now look for it in the village.

So, things were handled like this for the time being, about [-] of us, carrying oil lamps, flashlights and other things in the village looking for the little girl.

In fact, I think that the strong man didn't really want to trouble me, but mainly wanted to ask someone to help find his daughter.

On the way, the strong man told me that her daughter has been mentally abnormal since she was a child, and she especially didn't like to leave the vicinity of her home. Once again, she was taken to the entrance of the village, and she immediately suffered from convulsions.It's a miracle to walk so far with me today.

"That is to say, the child should not leave the village by himself, right?"

The strong man nodded, he was much calmer now.

I patted this buddy on the shoulder: "Don't worry, there should be nothing wrong, autism is also prone to sudden sexual transformation... Oh yes, there is something I don't quite understand."

At this moment, I thought of another thing.

The strong man looked at me, as if he didn't quite understand what I meant.

I thought for a while and asked, "When you scolded me today, did you say that I was like 'Zhao Er that old bastard'? What did you mean? Did he offend you? Or how did he offend Huanhuan?" gone?"

That's right, I'm stuck with this sentence, and I always feel that there is a story in it.

In the end, the strong man watched me shake my head, shook my head vigorously, and didn't say anything... The more he behaved, the more certain I was that there must be something wrong.

But before I asked what was going on, I suddenly heard the bell!

This bell is not a joke, it is the one at the entrance of the village, and only when a dead person is found will it ring!
However, didn't it mean that all the dead people discovered recently had left the village?So, I asked the strong man with wide eyes and listening to the voice: "Today... Has anyone left the village again?"

The strong man shook his head, and after shaking for a long time, his eyes suddenly filled with bloodshot eyes: "Huan... Huanhuan!!"

After finishing speaking, he ran desperately towards the entrance of the village.
