Haunted House Survival System

Chapter 148 Guest House
Jin Jiu lived in Room 201, and Yan Ling lived in Room 202.

The two took the keys and opened the door. The layout inside was quite clean.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, the sunlight shone into the room through the light yellow curtains of the large window. A tan single bed was covered with a neat white mattress and quilt.The pillow was dim red with white peonies embroidered on it. It also said "I LOE YOU..." One letter was missing, but it was barely legible.

Facing the bed is a rectangular wooden table of the same brown color, with a white porcelain teacup on it, and a small square on the side with teabags in it.There was also a piece of cardboard standing on the table, on which was written "Take boiling water and go to the boiling water room."

In this small place, there is not even a TV, so Yan Ling put away her luggage and came over to sit on Jin Jiu's bed.

She sighed and said, "I wonder where Brother Niutou and the others are? Can Xiaotian and the others feel that Yaoleng is nearby?"

Jin Tianyi and King Kong were already by Jin Jiu's side, they shook their heads at Jin Jiu and said, "I can't feel anything here, and it's true that Xiao Zhang Hunsi asked you to come here but didn't say anything about the follow-up."

Jin Jiu also shook his head, and said, "Xiao Tian and the others didn't respond...Didn't Auntie tell you what we were going to do when we came here before she left? Or who to contact?"

Yan Ling lay casually on his bed and said, "No... By the way, do you find it strange that there seem to be very few people in this village, but there are so many houses?"

Jin Jiudao: "At least I have seen an old woman and a child, otherwise I would have thought this place was also a ghost village."

Yan Ling said: "The child is here, and his adults should not be far away. Why is there no movement along the way?"

Jin Jiu glanced at the phone and said, "There is no signal here at all... It's useless to bring your laptop without WIFI. Auntie didn't give us any task reminders, but she only told us the details of this remote guesthouse so precisely. Name. Maybe just let us wait here and someone will contact us?"

Yan Ling nodded and said, "Then let's wait and see."

They waited until midnight, both of them couldn't help but fell asleep, and nothing happened.

The sun shone into the room the next morning, and Jin Jiu woke up and walked out with toiletries in hand.

Along the corridor, some residents downstairs could be seen coming out of their houses from a distance, and many of them were talking to each other with baskets full of vegetables.

The place to wash face is concentrated next to the corridor, and I happened to meet Yan Ling who was washing face inside.

"Good morning." Jin Jiu greeted her.

Yan Ling wrung out the towel and said, "Did you sleep well last night?"

Jin Jiu nodded and said, "Look at the villagers on the road, it seems that there are still people in this village."

Yan Ling said: "But it seems that we are the only two in this guest house. I still feel a little weird."

As soon as the words fell, there was a shout from downstairs: "Cockroach medicine, ant medicine, mouse trap, mouse sticky..."

Yan Ling went out with a washbasin in her hand, and saw an uncle in blue overalls riding a bicycle slowly passing by.

"Uncle!" she shouted, placing the basin on the corridor, stroking her hair and running downstairs.

Jin Jiu quickly put down the washbasin and followed.

The uncle on the bike stopped and asked Yan Ling: "What are you buying, girl?"

"Give me a pack of cockroach medicine." Yan Ling said, taking out a ten-yuan bill from her trousers.

"Wait a minute." Jin Jiu said, "After you bought this for a while, the whole room was filled with cockroaches. It should be an ant medicine."

Yan Ling gave him a blank look, and whispered: "I bought it casually, and you really use it?"

Jin Jiu said: "Since I bought it, it's a waste not to use it."

The uncle said impatiently: "Should you buy cockroach medicine or ant medicine?"

"I want a pack of ant medicine..." Jin Jiu took out a ten-yuan bill and handed it to the uncle, and asked, "Uncle, how long have you been selling this around here?"

The uncle took the money, smiled brightly, and softened his tone a lot, and said: "For more than two years, this Jieyang Village is the first one to come here, and I will go to the next village soon. I don't dare to come here if it's late. "

Jin Jiu asked curiously: "Why can't you come too late?"

The uncle's expression froze, he glanced at him suspiciously, then glanced back at the guest house, and said, "Aren't you from here? Then you have to finish your work and leave as soon as possible. If you can't finish the day, hide in your room after noon Please don't come out."

Yan Ling deliberately didn't take the ant medicine he handed over, and asked, "Why?"

The uncle frowned, stuffed the ant medicine into Jin Jiu's hands, pedaled off on his bicycle, and said, "Just don't come out anyway! I'm leaving."

Yan Ling wanted to ask more questions, but Jin Jiu stopped her and said, "Forget it, let's find someone else to ask."

When the two returned to the guest house, they saw an old man huddled tremblingly behind the table where the children were sitting yesterday. He was taking out the four hundred-yuan bills Jin Jiu and the others had given him yesterday from the drawer and rubbing them.

"Boss?" Jin Jiu walked over and said, "We came yesterday, and your grandson registered us."

The old man looked up at them and said, "How can I have a grandson? You have met a fairy."

Jin Jiu didn't know if he was joking or something else. He remembered what the uncle said just now and asked, "The uncle who sold medicine just now said that you have to hide here after noon. Why is that?"

The old man kept rubbing the four banknotes, and said slowly: "It doesn't mean that you have to hide, it depends on whether the gods accept you or not. Like the god you met yesterday, he is a good god... just in case If you meet a bad god, you may not be so lucky."

After finishing speaking, the old man actually took out a lighter from the drawer and lit the banknotes on fire.

"Hey, that's RMB..." Yan Ling didn't have time to stop, but saw that the four banknotes in the old man's hand turned into four white ghost papers and burned.

Jin Jiu touched his pocket subconsciously, and indeed four hundred yuan were missing.

The old man said slowly: "Don't look for it. I gave it to the gods. Do you still want to go back?"

Jin Jiu had a wry smile on his face. That was a deposit, and it would be refunded later.

However, judging from this sign, this place is indeed unusual.

He asked the old man again: "Boss, can you tell us what is going on in this village?"

But the old man stood up slowly, picked up the two crutches beside him, and walked out of the counter.

The old man's lower body turned out to be empty.

As the old man walked, he said, "If you come here, it means that you are guided by the gods. If not, don't ask anything. I advise you to leave as soon as possible."

Jin Jiu and Yan Ling exchanged glances, followed the old man out the door.

The old man walked to the door, looked back, saw the words "Fule Guest House" written on the wall, and sneered, "When did this fairy prison temple become a guest house?"

"Immortal Prison Temple?" Yan Ling was stunned.
The old man walked a few steps forward, pointed to the archway erected on two pillars outside and said, "Look for yourself, isn't this clearly written?"

Yan Ling and Jin Jiu looked up, and sure enough, there was a gold-rimmed and blue-bottomed signboard on the archway, with the words "Xianyu Temple" written on it.

The old man propped up half of his body on crutches and left slowly, saying: "Looking at your appearance, it's better to leave as soon as possible. The tempers of those gods are always yin and yang, and they may accept you at any time."
