The sudden sound from inside the door shocked everyone.
The Jiang family took a step back at a loss and focused on the Pei family.
The car curtain moved slightly, and someone lifted him out of the car.
The first person to step out of the carriage was the Pei family's wife.
The Pei family's mother-in-law hurriedly got out of the car holding a green object in both hands, and quickly came to the door of the inn. The young man standing beside her walked up and knocked on the wooden door with eyes.
"Dong dong dong"
"Sir, we are the Pei family in the capital. We have just returned to Ning from visiting relatives outside the customs. We are staying here tonight. Please take a look at this sign."
The woman lowered her head and handed the sign in her hand to a hand that stretched out from the wooden door.
After a moment, a figure appeared in the door.
Standing inside the door was an old man in his sixties, with gray hair and a face full of vicissitudes of life. His cloudy eyes looked at everyone outside the door, and he spoke quickly.
"It turns out to be the Pei family in the capital. I have offended many people. I hope you will forgive me. Please come with me, noble man."
After the old man finished speaking, he turned sideways and extended his hands to invite everyone in.
The Pei family's mother-in-law quickly turned around to greet Mrs. Pei and Young Master Pei as they got off the carriage.
After the Pei family entered the inn, the Jiang family followed with their cart.
After entering the inn, I found that it was even more desolate and shabby.
The weeds around the house have turned yellow and dry, the courtyard is covered with dust, and even the white paper on the wooden windows has long since disappeared.
The huge inn looks desolate everywhere.
It's like...no one has lived there for a long time.
Jiang Yunjin looked at everything in front of him and frowned silently.
Bright eyes fell again on the old man standing not far away with a smile on his face.
She always felt that the other person's smile was full of calculation.
Jiang Yunjin shook his head and dismissed the idea.
But the seeds of doubt were still planted in my heart.
The Jiang family only asked for a room to live in at the inn. The Pei family wanted to give them more rooms, but Boss Jiang refused.
On the road to escape, it would be good to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
Mrs. Jiang directed her sons to move things into the house. After they finished their work, she cleared her throat.
"Come here, you two, and you two will make some simple food later. We don't have much water to bring. If you can... it's best to borrow some. When it's night, boss, you guys will take turns keeping watch!"
After Mrs. Jiang finished speaking, the two daughters-in-law nodded obediently.
The last words made Boss Jiang and others a little confused.
"Mom, we are all at this inn, what else are you worried about? Do you need to stay up all night?" Jiang Laoer asked with a puzzled look on his face.
No wonder Jiang Laoer and the others were confused.
After all, the inn is not a place where ordinary people can come, and those who can live in it are all officials!
When Mrs. Jiang heard what the second brother said, she glared at him angrily, secretly feeling that the second brother was a wooden head.
"At what time will the inn be safe? It's better to be careful in everything!"
"Mom is right, let's do this. The second child and the fifth child will stay up half the night, and the fourth child and I will stay up half the night."
Boss Jiang made a decision after thinking for a moment.
The first half of the night is easy to watch, but the most important thing is the second half of the night.
After making their decision, the Jiang family began to pack up and make dinner.
Jiang Yunjin sat on the wooden bench bored alone.
Seeing this, several boys from the Jiang family cautiously touched the little sister's side.
"Little sister, let's go out and play hide-and-seek!" Jiang Qichuan was gearing up, looking impatient.
As soon as Jiang Qichuan spoke, the others nodded in agreement.
Jiang Yunjin looked at the speaker and found that it was his second uncle's eldest son, named Jiang Qichuan.
"Okay, third brother!" The voice was soft and soft, and he agreed.
The five little guys held hands and quickly ran out without the adults paying attention.
Several people came to the back of the inn house.
There is a large open space behind the house, covered with weeds and several boulders lying around.
It's a great place to play hide and seek.
The five little ones just use the method of pulling leaves. Whoever pulls the shortest one will be responsible for blindfolding people until they find everyone.
In the first round, it was the third brother Jiang Qichuan who drew the short leaf.
Jiang Yunjin took advantage of his third brother Jiang Qichuan's blindfold to quietly hide behind a boulder.
As soon as she hid, she heard a whistle, and then she heard the familiar voice of her third brother.
"Are you all hiding? I'm coming to find you! Little sister, I saw you."
A chill ran up my spine.
Jiang Yunjin froze in place and did not dare to move, for fear of being discovered by his third brother.
After waiting for a long time, she didn't even wait for the third brother to arrive. Only later did she realize that he wanted to blow her up!
What a clever little guy!
When Jiang Yunjin thought that the other party had bombed her, she felt less nervous, and then she looked around with confidence.
When he turned around, he saw a wooden door behind him.
The wooden door is not as old as the front door, and it looks like it was recently replaced.
The wooden door was closed and unlocked.
Jiang Yunjin, who was curious, stood up carefully, moved to the wooden door, stretched out his hand, and pushed the wooden door open instantly.
Not even a sound was made.
As soon as the door opened, Jiang Yunjin looked inside and found that he had arrived at the back door of the inn.
The back door is backed by the woods, and there is a winding path connecting the back door and the woods.
Standing on the path and looking in, you can't see the end.
Jiang Yunjin wanted to go in and take a look, but her reason woke her up.
After thinking again and again, I decided to tell Boss Jiang about this.
The little figure turned around and retreated into the inn.
As soon as the door closed, a vicissitudes of life figure came out from the path in the distance.
Jiang Yunjin returned to the backyard and told what he had just discovered, regardless of what he was playing with.
Several little guys hurriedly searched for the Jiang family, but in the end they found Boss Jiang.
Facing his father, Jiang Yunjin told what he had just discovered.
When Boss Jiang heard this, he immediately realized something was wrong.
"You guys, go back to your grandma quickly. Don't step out of that house until I come back!" Boss Jiang looked serious.
After saying that, he turned around and went to the back door alone.
In the past, it would not be unusual to have a small road.
But it's different now.
Food is more expensive than gold. If you can’t eat food, you can eat any kind of meat!
Boss Jiang didn't dare to bet. Even if he made a mistake, he still had to take a look and feel relieved.
As soon as Mr. Jiang walked away with his front legs, a small figure followed him on his back legs.
Jiang Yunjin was worried about Boss Jiang going alone. She always felt that something was wrong in that forest.
After exiting the back door, follow the path and head straight into the woods.
As soon as he stepped into the woods, the smell of blood immediately hit his face.
The further you walked in, the more you could smell a very faint odor, followed by an alluring aroma of meat that covered up the stench.
Smelling the alluring aroma, Jiang Yunjin frowned uncomfortably.
In her previous life, she studied painting, and usually took on some work of restoring cultural relics. Occasionally she would also receive criminal cases. Through the victim's description, she could clearly depict the prisoner's facial features, and sometimes she could even go to the crime scene.
Why did she feel that this aroma was very similar to a scene she had been to?
She remembered that it seemed like...
Jiang Yunjin's eyes widened suddenly!
This is…
