Chapter 254
I traveled around the mountains and rivers, stopped and took a lot of time.
One day, the two arrived at a small town before dusk and sunset. However, the town was very strange. All the houses in the town were closed and there was no one on the street.
Although people have always been accustomed to going home to cook at dusk, there are no living people on the streets. However, now they are all closed. Occasionally, Dongfang Ming glances at a few pairs of eyes and observes them from the unclogged cracks or cracks. After touching Dongfang Ming's sight, he immediately closes the doors and windows.
The two of them wanted to find a house to stay, but they knocked on several houses along the way but no one responded. However, when they heard the noise inside the house carefully, it was obvious that there was someone inside, so they just deliberately did not answer.
The strange behavior and alienated attitude of the townspeople made Dongfang Ming feel a little uneasy.
"The people around you are not allowed to go out?" Dongfang Ming looked at the surrounding situation in confusion and asked in confusion.
Cui Ning nodded and said, "I also feel that there are some strange things here. Since it is a plague, why does this happen in this area and why doesn't this happen there?"
Speaking of this, Dongfang Ming looked at the sky and said, "It's almost dark, let's find a place to stay first."
As he said that, Dongfang Ming used his mirror to look at the surrounding villages, whether there was a suitable residence for living.
After a while, Dongfangming saw a hotel with bright lights.
"Tonight, let's live somewhere for the time being." Dongfang Ming said to Cui Ning.
Cui Ning looked at the house in the distance and said, "Is the inn in front reliable?"
Thinking of this, Dongfang Ming smiled and said, "It's not reliable just like you think!"
Hearing this, Cui Ning frowned and said, "How do you know there is a black store in front of you?"
I’m afraid that Dongfang Ming will be confused when asked this question.
I can't say that I can see through it, and my clairvoyance can see the various secret passages in the inn?
But Cui Ning still has to fool him.
"Look at the surrounding environment," Dongfang Ming pointed to the environment around the inn and said: "At this moment, it should be a time for travelers who are busy rushing to rest. Although our road is not a pipeline, it is also a major road with a large number of people, and there are not many people going to stay at that inn."
"That's it?" Cui Ninghao asked with some confusion.
In her opinion, there are still some kind-hearted people in this world, but this is not the case.
"You are looking around," Dongfang Ming said again: "There are almost no other buildings around, but where does this inn exist? What does it mean?"
Speaking of this, Cui Ning suddenly understood.
"Then what should we do now?" Cui Ning couldn't help but look at Dongfang Ming.
At this time, Cui Ning had already developed a dependence on Dongfang Ming.
"Let's go!" Dongfang Ming said to Cui Ning: "Now we have no choice but to go to that inn. If we don't go to that inn, we can sleep in the wild, but the wild environment is still a bit unknown."
"This..." Cui Ning hesitated.
But Dongfang Ming did not give Cui Ning time to hesitate, and directly took Cui Ning's hand and walked towards the station.
The inn owner was originally closed-door and did not want to pick up customers. After all, it was because of the nature of merchants. Dongfang Ming took out a sufficient amount of silver ingots and then took them in.
As soon as we entered, Dongfang Ming's first thing was to ask the inn owner: "Boss, what's going on here? Why are there no one on the street? We knocked on the door one by one but no one answered."
The boss's surname is Wang, and sighed: "Young Master doesn't know anything, and the villagers have their own difficulties."
Dongfang Ming became interested: "Oh? I hope to hear it carefully."
"Some time ago, we started to have a plague here, and many people died in just a few days. When everyone was anxious and busy, a monk who traveled outside the town called himself Faqing. The Holy Monk of Faqing said that he could cast spells to retreat the plague to save us. Several rich men in the town took the lead in organizing everyone to raise money to honor the Holy Monk of Faqing so that they could cure the plague here. Sure enough, the Holy Monk of Faqing immediately did the method after collecting the money. Not long after, the plague in our town was much better! However, the Holy Monk of Faqing said that everyone should not go out these days, otherwise the plague might be repeated. Everyone was also afraid of being tortured by the plague, so they were careful not to go out. When someone came, they would not dare to open the door and let others go, for fear of violating the taboos of the high monks of Faqing."
Boss Wang talked about the whole story one by one. Cui Ning suddenly interrupted and asked Boss Wang: "Then boss, aren't you afraid of committing a taboo if you let us in?"
Just a smile was heard, and a cunning smile appeared on Boss Wang's chubby face: "I didn't go out, I just opened the door for you. You came in by yourself!"
Boss Wang's tricks were so simple and obvious that they both felt disgusted and only felt cute, and couldn't help laughing out loud.
After understanding the reasons and finding a place to stay, Boss Wang asked the waiter who stayed in the store to prepare hot water and meals for the two of them, so that they could have a good rest.
"You said this is a black spot, but the boss here is very nice to people!" Cui Ning asked Dongfang Ming in confusion after seeing the boss's behavior.
Dongfang Ming just gave a slight look and did not explain too much about Cui Ning's answer.
As night slowly descended, the call of wild wolves also came from the distant mountains.
"Listen!"
Suddenly, Dongfang Ming knocked on Cui Ning's door and said.
After Cui Ning felt Dongfang Ming, he did not speak too much, and felt the sounds around him according to Dongfang Ming's words.
really!
Cui Ning heard a ding-ding sound coming from the bottom of his room.
"Is it?"
Cui Ning couldn't help but think of the scene that happened when he first went to the inn with Dongfang Ming.
Dongfang Ming shrugged his shoulders and then handed the protective mask he made to Cui Ning.
"According to their routine, they should use objects such as drugs, so we should take precautions first."
Cui Ning took a piece of gauze from Dongfang Ming's hand, surrounded his face, waiting for Dongfang Ming's action.
Dongfang Ming opened his own perspective and watched the movements under the ground.
“Under the table!”
Dongfang Ming said to Cui Ning, then waited for the arrival of those people next to the table, and Cui Ning also took the rope and prepared.
"boom!"
It's still the same plot and the same action.
The man just climbed up and was knocked unconscious by Dongfang Ming.
However, what was unexpected to Dongfangming was that after this man climbed up, no one else came up next.
Dongfang Ming used his own perspective to look underground.
"No one?"
In the darkness, Cui Ning followed the moonlight and looked at Dongfang Ming.
"Wait for dawn!"
