Almighty Appraiser

Chapter 656
In order to inquire about "Tingyuxuan" and its boss, Shen Yunfeng had no choice but to stay overnight in the guest room of the "Public Food" restaurant. In the middle of the night, he was woken up twice by noises from outside the door.

The first time, a group of people from a distant construction site came over and opened four guest rooms to rub hemp inside. The second time, I was awakened by the sudden knock on the door of "Tuk Tuk Tuk", and went out to search around , did not see a ghost, returned to the room, but suddenly saw that the quilt I had opened earlier was neatly folded on the bedside, and when I was surprised, there was a violent coughing sound from the bathroom , When rushing in, only to find that a gentleman on the beam jumped out of the window and escaped.

Just as he was considering whether to chase after him, the sound of the door opening and the sound of unhurried footsteps came from his ears.

Shen Yunfeng walked out of the bathroom, and suddenly saw a droopy old man in an old black cloth gown, sitting on the edge of the bed to the east, looking at him quietly with a pair of white and black eyes.

Thinking of the purpose of his trip, Shen Yunfeng forcibly suppressed the idea of ​​going to the store owner or others for the time being.

Sitting on the chair, he tried his best to speak to the old man in black in a calm tone: "I respect you as an old man. You should at least say something. If you are still prepared to say nothing, I will call the boss." , let him come over to see if he should call the police or how to deal with it."

When Shen Yunfeng finished speaking, he noticed that the wrinkles on the face of the old man in black had slightly unfolded.

He, who had been looking at Shen Yunfeng, was also a little more angry.

After Shen Yunfeng looked into the eyes of the old man in black for a few seconds, he noticed that he only made a slight expression of kindness and still had no intention of speaking.

He sighed, rubbed his nose, lifted his butt from the chair, looked into the eyes of the old man in black and said, "Okay, since you don't want to talk, then I have to call the boss over."

Just when Shen Yunfeng finished speaking and took a step towards the door of the room, the old man in black shirt slowly straightened his waist and raised his slightly drooped head.

Shen Yunfeng looked sideways at the old man in black, and after seeing the whole face of the old man in black clearly, a strange thought suddenly came to his mind.

Although the skinny old man with thin silver-white hair appeared in front of him at this moment, and his facial muscles were full of grooves and ravines due to the erosion of years, Shen Yunfeng felt that he could see from every wrinkle A trace of scholarly spirit who has read thousands of volumes of books.

Seeing that the old man in black shirt had never come here uninvited, and finally made some gestures that seemed to be about to talk, Shen Yunfeng also suppressed his thoughts of going out to call someone.

"Old man, I'll give you another chance. If you're still not ready to speak, I'm sorry. Not only will I ask the shop owner to come over, but I'll also trouble you to move and get out of this room."

Shen Yunfeng looked at the old man in black indifferently.

The old man in black shirt opened his mouth and smiled.

There are no more than ten teeth up and down, which shows that he is indeed very old.

Seeing the "goodwill" expression of the old man in black again, it stands to reason that Shen Yunfeng should relax his vigilance a little bit, but for some reason, Shen Yunfeng saw a gloomy and ghostly aura from the old man in black's smile.

Inexplicably thinking of the location of this hotel and the time period at this moment, Shen Yunfeng subconsciously glanced at the feet of the old man in black.

There is no problem, under the light, there is an obvious figure on the ground.

"Ha ha."

The old man in black seemed to see Shen Yunfeng's thoughts, and smiled again with his mouth open.

The laughter that came out of his mouth, Shen Yunfeng felt, was more like the cough of a dying person.

Shen Yunfeng grabbed the back of the chair and looked at the old man in black. For some reason, the more he looked at his appearance, the more Shen Yunfeng felt in his heart that some strange aura seemed to be emanating from the pores of the old man in black.

The scalp tingled for a while, and the back actually began to feel a little cold.

Shen Yunfeng swallowed his saliva, and for the first time his eyes swept over the old man's skinny fingers casually placed on the edge of the bed.

Pausing for a moment, realizing that the old man in black still had no intention of speaking, Shen Yunfeng gave the old man in black a helpless look, turned and walked towards the door.

This time, he stopped talking nonsense and was going to call the restaurant owner directly.

"Hehehe"

Behind him came the strange laughter of the old man in black.

Shen Yunfeng turned his head and took a look.

It was this glance that made Shen Yunfeng instantly dispel the idea of ​​looking for someone.

Moreover, without hesitation, he turned around and walked quickly to the old man in black.

He stared at a jade pendant hanging in the hand of the old man in black with a pair of enthusiastic eyes.

Shen Yunfeng is almost certain that the jade pendant that the old man in black shirt suddenly took out is very different from the jade pendant that his grandfather gave him when he was dying, in terms of size, shape, and the luster radiating from the jade pendant under the light. resemblance.

After staring for a while, Shen Yunfeng finally moved his eyes away from the jade pendant in the old man's hand when he heard the weird laughter from above his head.

"Old man, why do you have such a jade pendant?" Shen Yunfeng suppressed the excitement and excitement in his heart, and said in a calm tone as much as possible, "Can you tell me about its origin?"

The old man in black was still expressionless, looking at Shen Yunfeng with his more white eyes than black, while slowly putting away the jade pendant, he slowly opened his mouth, and after a few weird laughs, he looked up. He pointed to his mouth.

Shen Yunfeng looked along the finger of the old man in black, and his heart was shocked again.

Because he saw that the mouth of the old man in black was empty except for the few remaining teeth.

That is to say, the old man in black shirt is a - mute!
For a moment, Shen Yunfeng was a little disheartened.

After letting out a helpless sigh, Shen Yunfeng looked up at the old man in black, hesitated for a long time, and then said in a bitter voice: "Sorry, I didn't know you couldn't speak before."

"But." Shen Yunfeng said while pointing to the old man in black shirt holding the jade pendant in his hand, "I really want to know its origin!"

"Well, now it seems."

"Hehehe"

The old man in black opened his mouth again and let out a few weird laughs.

Just when Shen Yunfeng was thinking about how to get the old man in black to "tell" him the jade pendant and his origins, he saw the old man in black suddenly stretched out his right hand without warning and grabbed his right wrist.

Moreover, in the black-shirted old man's eyes, there was an indescribably strange look in his eyes.

Caught off guard, Shen Yunfeng tried hard to break free, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't break free from the palm of the old man in black.
