Forbidden City

Chapter 137 The Weird Little Girl
Two days later, the train arrived in Long'an City. The whole city didn't look very prosperous. After all, Long'an City is a second-tier city with a remote location and surrounded by mountains on three sides. The biggest economic pillar of Long'an City is tourism.

We had a meal in the urban area, and without much delay, we got on the long-distance bus to Jiuhuai Mountain. Ten hours later, it was already evening when we arrived at Jiuhuai Mountain.Jiuhuai Mountain is a famous tourist attraction in the area. There is a small town at the foot of the mountain. The town is very bustling with a variety of shops. Even in the evening, there is a lot of people, mostly young men and women who come to visit.

The air here is very good, but the changing climate makes people unable to adapt. During the day, the sun is scorching hot, sweating, and at night, the wind is biting. Few people go out. It is really eating watermelon with the stove.

After getting out of the car, I hurriedly took out my coat and put it on, but to my surprise, Xinxin said with a smile that she was not cold, and she liked the cold breath.I am a little speechless, I know that Xinxin has a special physique, she is neither afraid of heat nor cold, even if you are not cold, you should put on clothes, otherwise people will see you wearing short sleeves, how can this work?
The three of us found a shop to eat something, and asked the boss about Bailong Temple. The boss didn’t know, but the boss told us that there are many Taoist temples on the mountain. Bosses and other important figures all go to ask for money and safety, and some people ask for their children to go to school, family chores, in short, the business of the Taoist temples on the mountain is very good, and several Taoist temples are very spiritual.

The boss is very talkative, saying that there is only one bus every morning at [-] o'clock until the mountain, and there are professional tour guides on the bus to introduce the scenery to the passengers, let us not miss it.

Saying goodbye to the enthusiastic boss, we went to find a place to live.There are no luxurious hotels nearby, but there are dedicated residential areas, all of which are simple country hotels, which give people a very affectionate feeling like a spring breeze, forming a beautiful and simple landscape in the entire bustling area.

Originally, Mu Yi and I valued a hotel with a more fashionable style and a lower price, but Xinxin was unwilling, saying that he didn’t like this one, so he just took my hand and ran to the end of the road. When we came to the last hotel, I looked up. Look at the name of the hotel, Hotel No. 13, this number opens a hotel, it is very unknown.

I don't want to live here, it makes people feel uncomfortable, but I can't help Xinxin, because Xinxin sees that I don't agree, so she asks Mu Yi for help, and Mu Yi agrees.Now my savings have long been spent, and it was almost all Mu Yi’s money along the way, so I basically listen to Mu Yi’s decision on food, clothing, housing and transportation.

The owner of the hotel is an expressionless old man, wearing a dark blue Zhongshan suit, which seems to be popular in the 50s and [-]s. He is holding a pipe in his right hand and a newspaper in his left hand at the front desk, smoking a cigarette. Focusing on the news in the newspaper and watching the three of us come in, I slowly put down the things in my hands and turned my head.

"Are the three staying in the hotel?" The old man's voice was very old, so I couldn't understand it. In such a big hotel, I couldn't see other people, and at least you arranged a beautiful woman at the front desk, right?
"We want to stay in a hotel, we need two rooms." Before Mu Yi and I spoke, Xin Xin lay down on the front desk with a smile, and said to the old man.

"Okay, you come with me."

The old man took us up to the second floor, I felt very strange, why is this hotel so quiet?Moreover, the flow of people at night is very large, and there are many tourists from other hotels. Why are there only three of us in this hotel?

I couldn't help asking: "Grandpa, is your hotel business not good?"

The old man didn't look back, he took a puff of a cigarette, "Our location is not good, and the hotel facilities are a bit outdated. Since the old lady died, I have been looking after this hotel alone. Sometimes the business is OK, sometimes Not good."

I didn't ask much. When the old man led us to the room, I felt even more strange. The facilities in the room were not old, but they gave people a style of the 60s and [-]s. Whether it was the layout of the room or the sofa bed and chairs, I seem to have only seen these things in old Chinese TV dramas.

The room was clean and spotless, and Mu Yi and I were very satisfied.The old man gave us three keys, we paid a deposit of [-] yuan and a room fee of [-] yuan, and we stayed.

Xinxin and I live in the same room, and Mu Yi lives next door.We worked hard for a few days, and we were really tired. Originally, I wanted to go to bed early, but Xinxin was very excited. She didn’t sleep, kept arguing, and kept trying to play with me. Xinxin is rarely so mischievous, although I am angry. No, but I still play with Xinxin.

Xinxin yelled for snacks, but there was no way, Xinxin always eats a lot, so I went out alone and asked Xinxin to wait for me in the room. My cigarettes happened to be gone, so I just went down to buy a pack of cigarettes.

I bought a lot of snacks in a small convenience store nearby. When I walked to the door of the hotel, I saw some flames from a distance. When I got closer, I saw two men and a woman kneeling around a brazier at the door of the hotel. , one person holds the old lady's portrait in both hands, and two people burn paper for the old lady, saying that they will go all the way and wait for those words.

What's going on?Even if you burn the paper, you can't be at the door of the hotel, doesn't the boss care?When passing by, I couldn't help asking: "Three, sorry, excuse me, what's going on?"

"Boy, don't meddle in your own business!" The man on the right looked at me viciously, I was a little surprised, I just asked, even if I disturbed you burning paper, you don't have to get angry, right?

I was about to leave when the man on the left looked up at me, glanced at the things in my hand, and said, "Are you staying in this hotel?"

I stopped again and said yes, what's wrong?
"I advise you not to stay here, you..." The man's face was a little ugly, and just about to say something, the woman next to him tugged at his sleeve, motioning him not to continue.

Since I don’t say anything, I didn’t ask too much, anyway, I’m also a half-assed onmyoji, and Mu Yi lives in it, so even if there is a problem with the hotel, why should I be afraid?

However, when I saw those three people looking at me, their faces were a little weird, and their eyes seemed to be a little frightened. When I got to the portrait, the old lady's black eyes were staring at me!
I thought I was dazzled, so I rubbed my eyes hastily. When I looked at the portrait again, the corner of the old lady's mouth twitched slightly, and she suddenly smiled, a ferocious smile!

Nima!

Immediately afterwards, gusts of wind blew towards me with sparks and soot. I was so frightened that I rushed to the corridor with all my strength and ran to the second floor.

I was gasping for breath, I did see the old lady smile just now, it was definitely not a hallucination!
As soon as I got to the second floor, a gust of wind blew in my face, and I couldn't help shivering all over.

I was the only one in the empty corridor, and the sensor light in the distance was on and off. Everything was normal, but I had a ghost in my heart. When I saw the dark environment, I felt uncomfortable.

pop, pop, pop...

Suddenly, there were bursts of weird noises from the end of the corridor in the distance. I was really afraid of something!
The hairs all over my body stood upside down, I hurried forward and rushed forward, I just wanted to get back to the room as soon as possible.

hehehe...

Laughter came from the corridor again, but this time, I heard it clearly, it seemed to be a little girl's laughter, very crisp.

I saw the end of the corridor, and a white shadow gradually came towards me. She walked very slowly, and all the sensor lights were on and off in the passing places. I couldn't see her face clearly. I saw her face in her hand. Holding a leather ball, I keep shooting, walking while shooting.

clap clap clap...

The sound of the ball echoed in my heart, every time I slapped it, my heart seemed to be slapped out. Could it be that I encountered a ghost again...

The little girl came to me and stood near the door of my house. The sensor light at the door of my house was also off. I watched the little girl pat the ball, and there were bursts of charming smiles in my mouth.
