Under the cover of night, in the long and narrow alley, a man who was walking hurriedly seemed to feel something. He paused and looked into the depths of the alley warily. The next moment, the man seemed to have seen some terrifying existence, and his eyes were full of horror. With a look of despair and fear, he subconsciously opened his mouth to call for help, but as a black shadow flashed past, the man's body shriveled up at an extremely fast speed, and in a blink of an eye, there was only a mummy with the last drop of essence squeezed out.
He Yuan looked at the naked ghost-faced Yaksha statue that had devoured the man with great excitement, and cast his greedy eyes towards the long street at the end of the alley, where there were streams of flesh and blood souls attracting him.
With a wave of his hand, the mummy that fell to the ground instantly turned into ashes, and He Yuan disappeared without a trace.
At this time, there were no more pedestrians on the street. Huang Huai's steps became faster and faster, and he stared at his surroundings with increasing vigilance, especially those deep alleys that seemed to be full of danger under the night.
"The eighth one is far from enough. If it weren't for those who didn't want to alarm the people in Dahemen too early, they would just find dozens of blood food in just a few households. Tsk tsk. Those so-called gods who protect the family and control the house are the ones who can It’s just a precaution against some unnatural evil spirits. For those of us who are cultivators, and even powerful gods and evil spirits, there are many ways to avoid these gods to protect the family. That is, only ordinary people will believe that the statues of gods they enshrine can make people They avoid all harm, don’t you know that many tragedies that destroy families and destroy families are the work of gods, and in the end they just pass the blame to evil spirits!”
He Yuan, whose body seemed to be melting into the darkness, glanced indifferently at the mummy lying at his feet. He was sighing in his heart when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps. He Yuan couldn't help but his eyes lit up. He followed the sound and saw a person walking quickly. Running quickly, who is it if it's not Huang Huai?
"Tsk tsk, here comes another one!"
He Yuan's eyes were fixed on Huang Huai, and his evil gaze made people's hearts tremble.
At this time, Huang Huai saw his target in front of him, and a very eye-catching inn came into view, and he couldn't help but feel happy.
This was one of the several inns that he had noticed during the day. It happened to be that this inn was the closest to him, so Huang Huai, who vaguely felt something was wrong, rushed to this inn as soon as possible.
The inn is three stories high, made entirely of wood, and looks quite elegant. There are two lanterns hanging on both sides of the inn's entrance, and a waiter is standing at the door, seemingly soliciting guests.
The waiter's eyes lit up as if he noticed Huang Huai.
Huang Huai, who was relaxed, suddenly froze up. The feeling of being stared at by some terrifying existence made Huang Huai look around subconsciously.
"Hiss, what is that!"
In the dark alley in the distance, a pair of eyes exuding a faint coldness seemed to be staring at him. Just looking into those eyes, Huang Huai felt chilled all over.
"If you want to die, you must get out of here!"
Huang Huai, who was feeling alarmed, subconsciously wanted to open the mysterious door connecting the two worlds and escape, but at this moment a voice sounded: "Do you want to stay in the hotel?"
The waiter's voice sounded like the sound of nature. In just a moment, Huang Huai felt that the cold gaze staring at him disappeared. When the crisis was over, Huang Huai's potential exploded, and for a moment in the waiter's slightly horrified eyes Then he came to the door of the inn.
When the waiter saw this, he smiled and said, "Dear guest, please come in quickly."
Huang Huai tried his best to calm down and behaved as normal as possible. Even so, recalling the sense of crisis just now still made him scared.
Exhaling a breath to calm down his frightened mind, Huang Huai stepped into the inn. The first thing he saw upon entering the main hall was a statue of a god as tall as a man. This statue held a sword in one hand and a golden gold ingot in the other. There is a colorful tiger lying on its back. In addition to the two wings on its back, at first glance Huang Huai thought it was the statue of Zhao Gongming, the God of Wealth.
At this moment, looking at the rather ordinary-looking statue in front of him, he felt an inexplicable sense of security.
After shopping for most of the day, Huang Huai had to go in and out of more than a dozen shops. Huang Huai had gained some insights. After all, after seeing different statues of gods in the shops he went in and out of, Huang Huai now saw an inn in the main hall. There is such an eye-catching statue in the middle. I have become accustomed to it and am not surprised by it.
It could even be said that he would be surprised if this inn didn't even enshrine a statue of a god.
The waiter who followed Huang Huai seemed to have noticed Huang Huai's gaze on the statue and immediately said to Huang Huai: "Dear guest, our Ping'an Inn is a century-old brand in Dahe City. Whether it is reputation or safety guarantee, then It’s all well known.”
As he spoke, the waiter intentionally or unintentionally highlighted the statue of the Crouching Tiger and the Demon-Slaying God in the store next to him. After all, according to the waiter's experience, all the guests who came to their Ping An Inn for the first time, as long as they heard Ping An The inn is a century-old brand. Looking at the statues enshrining the gods, you will never doubt the credibility of their inn.
After all, according to common sense, a century-old name is a kind of heritage, which means that the statues enshrined in the inn are most likely to have been enshrined for hundreds of years and have accumulated huge incense power. When facing any danger, they can show their ability. The powerful divine power protects everyone in the inn.
It's a pity that the waiter's performance and hints were like ogling a blind man, and all his efforts were in vain. Huang Huai, as an outsider, didn't understand the key points at all.
However, when Huang Huai heard the waiter say that this inn was a century-old brand, he had already made up his mind. Let alone why this inn was a century-old brand, even if it wasn't, after the experience just now, the inn in front of him was a black shop. , he will also stay first.
Glancing at the waiter, Huang Huai smiled and said, "I have admired the name of Ping'an Inn in Dahe City for a long time. In this case, arrange for me the best guest room in your inn."
The waiter's eyes lit up immediately, and those eyes that had been trained during the greeting and delivery swept over Huang Huai's body without leaving a trace. His eyes lingered on Huang Huai's exposed wrists and neck for a moment. Even with a smile on his face, he bowed to Huang Huai and said: "Houseyard No. 1, I have a distinguished guest!"
Under the guidance of the waiter, Huang Huai walked through the lobby and passed a door. His eyes suddenly lit up. What appeared in Huang Huai's eyes were several extremely quiet and elegant independent courtyards.
Huang Huai really didn't expect that the guest room of Ping'an Inn was actually a small courtyard with a single family. This alone made Huang Huai believe what the waiter said.
With a creak, the waiter opened a door, and a faint fragrance rushed in. What came into view was a small and quiet courtyard. Although the courtyard was not big, it was kept extremely clean and elegant. Seeing this, Huang Huai couldn't help but feel a smile on his face. A bit of satisfaction.
The waiter is the best at observing words and expressions. When he saw Huang Huai showing a satisfied look as he expected, he smiled and said: "Dear guest, this is the best No. 1 courtyard of our Ping'an Inn. I wonder if your guest is satisfied!"
Huang Huai chuckled when he heard this, threw a prepared silver melon seed to the waiter and said: "This yard is nice, I am very satisfied!"
The waiter took the silver melon seeds, took them in, felt their weight, and the smile on his face became brighter and said: "I will send the distinguished guest here. If the distinguished guest needs anything later, just ring the doorbell to call us. ."
Huang Huai nodded slightly, and suddenly spoke to the waiter when his heart moved: "I am traveling this time and it is my first time in Dahe City. Is there anything I should pay attention to in Dahe City?"
