While the two of them were staring blankly at the beautiful young woman, they heard a man inside say in a deep voice: "Tie Xin Mian, don't forget that this is my inn. Don't always make the decision to attract guests to me."

This woman named Tie Xin Mian covered her lips and started laughing. She leaned back and forth with her laughter, and her branches trembled wildly, which made Wang Lin and Xi Feng look a little distracted.

"I'm sorry, I'm also a guest here, not the landlady. I don't have to say whether you can move in or not." Tie Xinmian winked at the two of them with a charming look on her face, then turned around and walked away.

The man who spoke quickly walked to the door. He was about forty years old and quite tall. Although his skin was tanned, his facial features showed that he was Chinese. He stood there with a serious face, but there was an underlying sense of intimacy.

Looks more pleasing to the eye than that old guy.

"There is one guest room, but it was booked by a guest who said he would come and check in tonight. If you want to stay, you can stay. After they come over later, you will have to move to the corridor to sleep. Is that okay?" This man?

Said in a lukewarm tone.

Wang Lin nodded and said: "Living in the corridor is better than sleeping on the grass. Okay, let's do it."

The man introduced the two of them in. Inside was a hall with simple wooden tables and benches. Several oil lamps were hung on several stone pillars, illuminating the hall quite brightly. On the left was the counter, which

The old guy stood there lifelessly, like a piece of wood. He should be a bookkeeper.

The house price here is very expensive, costing one thousand a night. Even if you move to the corridor at night, the price is still the same. Wang Lin doesn't care about the money, even if it is a doghouse, he will accept it. After paying the rent, the old man gave it to him

A ticket was issued, which was just a receipt typed on a scrap of paper.

After they were done, the man introduced himself as Zhou and the old man who kept the books as Miao. If you have any questions, you can just go to him or Lao Miao. Then there was a man in his thirties who took them to the door on the right side of the third floor.

In a room. This man was an innkeeper, also a Han Chinese, named Xiangzi. He brought them a pot of hot water and then closed the door and went out.

The guest room is quite clean, with two wooden beds and white bedding. There is also a separate bathroom in the room. Although it is not a toilet, it is a squat urinal. I took a flashlight and looked down. There is a deep pipe and a flush of water.

The stench rose up from their noses, and the two of them hurriedly came out. Although the walls were not even painted and the curtains were made of coarse cloth, the conditions were considered a luxury standard room in the desolate and uninhabited Gobi Desert.

If you want to take a bath, there is a public bath in the backyard. Boss Zhou said that it is a hot spring, open from 8 to 11 pm. It is already past 8 o'clock, and the two of them do not dare to take a bath. They have not figured out yet.

The bottom line of the mysterious inn is that he rashly threw away all his equipment and entered the bathhouse, and was completely naked at that time. If he was attacked, he would be much more passive.

Xi Feng took the washbasin to the backyard reservoir and filled a basin of water. The two of them simply washed their faces in the house, and then went downstairs to eat. They thought that the other guests had already eaten, but when they came down, they were sitting in the hall.

It was full of guests and there was no empty table left. The young woman named Tiexinmian by Boss Zhou was sitting at a table in the northwest corner. She was alone. She waved to them and pointed to the table, indicating that she could fight with her.

table.

The two of them walked over. This woman was naturally charming, the type most easily accepted by men. But both of them had come from across the country, and were wary of not only her, but everyone else in the inn. They were opposite Tiexinmian.

I sat down and saw dinner in front of her, which was a milk tea and a plate of barbecue. In such a bitter cold place, if you want vegetables, don't dream about it. It's pretty good to have beef and mutton to eat.

Wang Lin waved the waiter over. The waiter in the canteen was a girl, about ten years old, with a ponytail. She looked decent, but her face was dark, as if someone owed her eight hundred yuan.

"We want to eat, let's take a look at the menu." Wang Lin said according to the hotel's usual practice.

"There is no menu, breakfast, lunch and dinner are fixed. For dinner, one milk tea and one roast lamb, each person costs 180 yuan." The waiter said and stretched out his hand, which meant that he would pay first and then serve the food.

Wang Lin and Xi Feng looked at each other. The inn's business was very overbearing and did not allow guests any choice. Moreover, the prices of the dishes were extremely expensive. The price of that plate of roast mutton in the Guannai Grand Hotel was only a hundred yuan at most, but

After thinking about it, things in this barren land are very precious. Wang Lin didn't care about the money anyway, so he immediately took out four hundred yuan and gave it to the waiter. There was no need to change the rest, and it was used as her tip.

While Tie Xinmian cut off the barbecue with a knife and ate it, he said with a smile: "The conditions here are difficult, and some food is very good. You are just passers-by, so the price must be higher. For example, I have lived here for three years, and as a member

This dinner is only twenty yuan."

Wang Lin immediately widened his eyes and said, "Twenty yuan?" He felt like he had been taken advantage of. Isn't the membership price so different from the individual customer price?

Xi Feng ignored the woman, but looked sideways at the diners in the entire hall. Only now did he realize that there was not a single Mongolian here. From the innkeeper to the guests, they were all Han. There were about 70 or 80 people sitting here.

There were men and women, old and young, in different shapes. But they had the same characteristic. Except for Tie Xin Mian, all the guests stared at the two of them with cold eyes, as if they were unfamiliar with the sudden arrival of the two.

The guest has a certain hostility and wariness.

Tie Xinmian chuckled and said: "Except for a few passers-by, most of them are permanent guests. If the daily cost is very high, who can afford it? Look at the bald guy over there, he has lived here for ten years

For several years, the price of food has been even cheaper than mine, charging him more than ten yuan at most for a meal."

Wang Lin turned his attention to the very eye-catching bald man in the crowd. This man was in his fifties and was wearing rags. If he were placed in the pass, he would be a homeless man. Many of them looked similar to him, but they were older.

Some people were quite neatly dressed. There were two girls in their early twenties. They were very beautiful and well-dressed. Wang Lin was secretly surprised. Who are these people? Why would Mao stay in this inn?

Will it be the same as your own?

Tie Xinmian followed his gaze and saw the two girls, and whispered: "They came yesterday. I heard they are wanted for an economic case. They will stay here for a few days before smuggling to Mongolia."

Xi Feng turned around and asked her, "Where's the bald guy?"

"He is a murderer. I heard he raped and killed more than a dozen women. He has been hiding here for more than ten years without being found by the police." Tie Xinmian whispered.

"It costs a lot of money to live here for more than ten years. Where did he get the money?" Wang Lin asked puzzledly.

Tie Xinmian poked his head over and said: "Many of them are wanted criminals here. They didn't have much money when they came here, but Boss Zhou will find them a job as coolies. It is said that they can earn room and food every day, and sometimes they can earn much more."

, you can rest for a few days without doing anything.”

"What about you?" Xi Feng stared at her and asked.

"I was wanted because I opened a shampoo store and found dozens of girls to sell it, as well as some hair whitening powder. I'm lucky. I saved a lot of money before I ran away, which is enough for me to live here for dozens of years.
