Chapter 304 Devour, monsters! [4k small chapter for monthly ticket]
Outside Linyu City.
At this moment, most of the spring has passed, and the weather is gradually getting warmer. However, Linyucheng is close to Kyoto, so the temperature is not too high yet.
Originally, Linyucheng was considered a popular route to Kyoto, so there were many merchants and tourists coming and going.
But the recent situation is different from usual. After all, there are not many passengers on the road because of the frequent return of troops or representatives from Kyoto.
These soldiers who returned to the imperial court after returning from the army also had inns where they could rest and recuperate on the way, so they did not have to find inns to sleep in the open.
Lao Wangtou and his wife got up early in the morning and tidied the hotel room.
Nowadays, although due to the march of the army, there are fewer and fewer tourists on the road, and the hotel is barely able to maintain itself during this period, the old Wang and his wife are not slacking off.
After all, this situation is only temporary, and guests may come to your door. If you don't prepare in advance, you will be damaging your own reputation.
Furthermore, there are still several merchants living here in the inn.
But today, the sky was covered with dark clouds early in the morning, and it was pouring rain before noon. At this time, the wind and rain were in full swing, and there were probably not many new guests staying at the hotel.
At this time, a young man in his twenties opened the door and walked in. It was none other than Wang Chang, the only son of Lao Wangtou.
Lao Wangtou had only had such a son in his life, so he naturally doted on him very much. Fortunately, Wang Chang had a good temper and did not develop a lot of problems from being spoiled.
On weekdays, he would also help his parents greet guests, but there was no business these days. Wang Chang took advantage of this time to go out to find playmates, which could be regarded as a late spring outing.
"Daddy."
Wang Chang greeted Old Wangtou as usual, and Old Wangtou didn't pay attention, but he suddenly saw Wang Chang behind him.
This time, my son unexpectedly brought in a young girl.
This girl appears to be in her twenties and eighties. She is wearing a green skirt and a white silk scarf. She looks very cute.
She bowed to Old Wangtou and his wife and said:
"The little girl was originally from Kyoto. Her husband died young and she had no children, so she was kicked out by her cruel parents-in-law.
However, his parents had passed away, so he had no choice but to come to Lin Yucheng to seek refuge with his aunt, but little did he know that his aunt had also passed away.
Now the little girl doesn't know where to turn. She was sad and helpless and wanted to put an end to it, but the prince took action.
But now, it's raining heavily again, and the little girl asked the store owner to show kindness and take her in for the night..."
As she spoke, the woman in green seemed to be filled with sadness. She couldn't help covering her face and crying, which made everyone cry and saddened.
Seeing that the woman spoke pitifully and that his body was wet from the rain, Lao Wangtou could not help but feel sympathy and agreed.
And looking at the look in his son's eyes, he was afraid that if he didn't take this woman in, his son would also get into trouble with him.
Furthermore, a weak woman cannot be a gangster, so there will be no problem in taking her in.
Thinking of this, Lao Wangtou's wife immediately took the woman to the inn room to tidy it up. Fortunately, the old couple were diligent, otherwise the room would not have been tidied up and it would be difficult for people to live in it.
Moreover, the woman in green clothes had just been caught in the rain and did not wash up and change into dry clothes, fearing that she might catch a cold.
This woman seemed to be a kind-hearted person, because after cleaning up, she started to help Lao Wangtou's wife clean up the guest room.
It's a pity that such a good girl has such a hard life.
After cleaning up the guest room, Lao Wangtou and his wife had already prepared meals. People who run inns are always ready to eat.
After they finished eating together, the woman in green became even more diligent and took the initiative to help the old couple clean up the dishes.
Later, the woman was not idle, and also helped the king's wife to make clothes. The clothes sewn by this woman had fine stitches and exquisite craftsmanship, which was not comparable to that of ordinary girls.
It seems that she is a good girl with a good upbringing in her family. However, her fate is so tragic, which makes people sigh.
Lao Wangtou's wife became more and more helpless as she watched, and couldn't help but sigh:
"Nizi, you have such looks and craftsmanship, and your husband's family kicked you out. I'm afraid you are really out of your mind."
Speaking of this, she looked at the woman and became more and more happy. Her heart changed, and she didn't know what was going on. She said half-jokingly: "If you don't mind it, why don't you become my daughter-in-law?"
When the old woman said this, her eyes couldn't help but light up. The more she thought about it, the more she thought it was a good idea. The more she looked at this woman, the more she liked her.
When the woman in green heard this, she lowered her head shyly, her face turned red, even reaching the roots of her ears.
Although this girl is married, she is still so easily shy. At first glance, she looks like an honest and responsible child.
But seeing the old woman's extremely bright eyes, the woman finally whispered like a mosquito, infinitely shy.
"If you, my benefactor, don't despise me for being a dirty person, this will be my greatest blessing..."
Hearing this, the old woman directly held the hand of the woman in green with a look of pity on her face.
This poor child.
Then, the old woman no longer hesitated, went to Old Wangtou, and directly told him the situation, and Old Wangtou also felt very good.
This girl's behavior today shows that she is living a good life. Moreover, since his son is willing to bring her back, he will definitely not reject her.
Sure enough, when Lao Wang first told Wang Chang about the situation, Wang Chang had no objection at all and naturally agreed to the marriage.
So, the next thing went smoothly. After all, Lao Wangtou and his family were ordinary people, and they didn't have many relatives, so the marriage was not so particular.
Lao Wangtou and his wife took the time to make some hasty arrangements, and sent the woman and son into the bridal chamber that night.
Wang Chang is already in his twenties and is not an ignorant young man, but he is still a little nervous now.
After all, this was the first time he got married in his life, and it happened suddenly, so he was not prepared.
He was naturally satisfied with this woman, otherwise he wouldn't have taken her home in the rain. Although he said he was kind-hearted, if he didn't have a good impression, how could he be so decisive.
He just didn't expect that his relationship with this woman would progress so quickly, making him feel like he was dreaming now.
Because she was preparing to get married hastily, the woman was still wearing green clothes at this moment, but she had a red hijab on her head.
This is the red cloth that the old woman found at the bottom of the box. Although the wedding is hasty, it always needs to be festive.
Wang Chang's hands were shaking a little.
If nothing else happens, this woman at this moment will be his partner for the rest of his life until death comes.
The woman was sitting upright on the bed. Wang Chang looked at her, and finally made up his mind and lifted the red hijab.
At first glance, what I saw was a pool of spring water.
"Ms. sir..."
The woman seemed a little ashamed, looking at Wang Chang's burning eyes, as if she wanted to burn herself.
"Lady."
Wang Chang was also moved.
But just as Wang Chang was about to take a step forward, the woman suddenly stood up and took a stick from the bedside.
Um?
Why is there a stick next to the bed?
Wang Chang was a little strange, but he didn't pay too much attention, so he just subconsciously asked: "Why is the lady holding a stick?"
The woman looked at Wang Chang, with a look of shame in her eyes, and said nothing. She just walked to the door, and then glanced at Wang Chang.
"I'm afraid of disturbing my parents."
This sentence instantly made Wang Chang's eyes light up. At the age of more than 20 years old, he naturally already knew about men and women.
Then, he saw his wife holding the wooden stick against the door, and it seemed that the door could not be opened from the outside.
Then, the woman walked back and sat on the bed, pulled Wang Chang over, and looked straight at her groom with eyes full of affection.
"My husband's skin and flesh are really white and tender."
"What?"
Wang Chang couldn't help but be startled when he heard this. Although he was somewhat fair, compared with his wife, he was not good enough.
"It's nothing. I mean, my husband is really good-looking. I'm so lucky to be his wife."
Although Wang Chang was in his twenties, he was still a young boy. Hearing his wife's straightforward words, he couldn't help but blush.
But after all, it was a conversation between the bedclothes. He thought that they would be a family in the future, so he finally mustered up the courage, raised his head and said to the woman:
"My wife is joking. Of course my wife is more beautiful. I am lucky to marry my wife."
At this moment, the atmosphere is already a bit pink.
At this time, Wang Chang's breathing became heavier.
At this time, the woman smiled softly, approached Wang Chang who was sitting on the bed again, and directly reached out to hold Wang Chang's hands.
Wang Chang's face became increasingly red.
Of course he knew what would happen next, and he also had some expectations.
only--
"Madam, the red candle hasn't been blown out yet."
"Don't worry about it."
Who would have thought that the woman didn't care about the red candle at all, and took the initiative to put Wang Changqi on the bed. Then she lifted the quilt with her hand and covered the two of them with the quilt.
The quilt stirred for a while, and suddenly, the quilt swelled in size.
In the shadow of the red candle, the quilt turned like a wave, rolling violently.
However, it was not an embarrassing moan, but a creepy chewing sound could be heard vaguely.
……………………
Because today is a beautiful day for his son, Lao Wangtou and his wife naturally know what a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold.
So, they wisely went to the house in the backyard and went to bed early.
After all, my son has a thin face, and it would not be a good thing if his son becomes timid because his two elderly people are awake.
Therefore, after sending his son and his wife into the bridal chamber, the couple looked at each other, smiled, turned off the lights and went to sleep.
From now on, my son will also have a family.
He has grown up too.
Not long after, the old Wangtou and his wife fell into a deep sleep while smiling.
"Mom, save me, it hurts so much!"
Suddenly, Lao Wangtou's wife woke up from her dream in a cold sweat.
Just now, she actually dreamed that her son was crying to her with disheveled hair and blood all over his body. He was extremely miserable.
At this time, she quickly woke up her husband beside her and told him with a frightened face that what she had dreamed about was a bit frightening.
At this time, Lao Wangtou couldn't help but patted his wife. He was too happy and had a nightmare.
Furthermore, dreams are all opposite, and it is a bit unlucky to say that it is a night of flowers and candles in the bridal chamber of my son.
"You are such a naive mother-in-law. Are you going crazy because you have a good daughter-in-law? Are you talking in your sleep?"
Lao Wangtou scoffed a little, turned around and fell asleep again. Lao Wangtou and his wife also felt that they were making a fuss, so they also fell asleep after Lao Wangtou.
However, not long after, there was another miserable scream in the dream.
"Mom, my son is going to be eaten up by the devil."
The king's wife woke up from her dream again and sat up suddenly. Her son's shrill cry in the dream seemed to still be in her ears.
Once can be said to be a dream, but what about twice?
She quickly shook her husband awake again. Lao Wangtou felt a little sad in his heart when his wife said this.
Then go up and take a look, it's best if everything is fine.
Thinking of this, Lao Wangtou and his wife got out of bed and came to the door of their new house. They saw candlelight flickering in the house, but there was no sound.
Lao Wangtou and his wife couldn't help but look at each other at this moment, feeling that something was wrong, so they couldn't help but quietly attached their ears to the door in tacit agreement.
Then, they vaguely heard the sound of gnawing and chewing. Unable to bear it, they jumped up suddenly and shouted loudly into the house.
However, there was no response at all from inside the room. The two of them panicked and rushed directly to the door, but the door was blocked by wooden sticks and could not be opened at all.
Although it is said that because the army returned to North Korea, the passenger flow is much less, but there are still one or two scattered merchants.
The movement of the old couple at this time also woke up these merchants. They were considered strong, otherwise they would not be able to walk as merchants.
Several of them pulled Old Wangtou and his wife over, and then worked together to open the wooden door. Then they heard several screams.
These merchants were also in a daze at the moment and subconsciously exited the room.
There was blood all over the floor in the room, and a strange blue thing was sitting on the bed, holding a head and drinking the brain in one gulp.
At this time, it saw the door open and the figures of the old kings revealed. It just glanced at them with its copper bell-like eyes.
Then, its big mouth actually split open, and it seemed to be laughing, but it looked even more terrifying.
Immediately afterwards, the strange thing threw the skull in its hand out the door, and it fell into the arms of Lao Wangtou's wife.
"Son!"
Lao Wangtou and his wife looked at the skull in their arms and screamed, then their bodies went limp and they passed out.
The people outside the door were immediately in a panic, but the evil spirit took this opportunity to scare the crowd away and broke out of the door.
Only the vast darkness of night and Lao Wangtou's shrill cries were left.
I thought it was a happy event, but now it's a white-haired person giving a black-haired person a gift. What a sin!
The inn residents who were still hesitating at first could not help but let out a sigh of relief when they saw the strange thing disappear, feeling frightened in their hearts.
Okay okay okay.
The monster didn't attack them, otherwise there's no telling who would be unlucky again and die immediately.
But……
Looking at Lao Wangtou who was still crying bitterly, everyone felt sad. This was his only child.
Wang Chang helped old Wangtou manage the inn, and he was a loyal and honest man. The merchants who lived here naturally sympathized with the young man's plight.
But who knew that we would encounter such an accident!
At this moment, a businessman suddenly patted his thigh.
"wrong!"
In an instant, everyone's attention turned to the merchant.
"This is Linyu City, close to Kyoto. Where did this weird thing come from and dare to cause trouble here?"
yes!
This is Linyucheng!
At this moment, everyone's expressions changed drastically.
We are all traveling businessmen, and in our many years of experience, we have encountered strange things.
Even if you don't have personal experience, you know some special situations, and they each have their own corresponding methods.
However, under the walls of Kyoto, where would anyone dare to cause trouble?
That is simply courting death!
This is Linyu City near Kyoto. I have never heard of such a thing happening. Therefore, I must leave immediately tomorrow and go to Kyoto!
