Lingyao had seen the prosperity of the world, where could she sleep? She tossed and turned all night, unable to fall asleep. She had to get up, light a candle, and once again took out the gadgets she bought on the street or in the market. Suddenly,
She stared at the boxes of rouge and gouache, then took out the bronze mirror and looked at her beautiful face under the candlelight. After a long time, Lingyao softly spat: "Nasty little fox, I really have such a
Is that bad?" Obviously, she was still worried about what Linghu Heng had just called a ghost.
The candlelight suddenly gently shook off a lantern flower, making a soft "crackling" sound. Lingyao also had a flash of inspiration: "The little fox said I am a ghost, then I can show others whether I am a ghost or a fairy?" Such an abnormal thought.
, only an abnormal person like Lingyao could figure it out. She was still quite proud, and while humming a little tune, she started to "work" on her beautiful face again. The result can be imagined.
…
Like normal people, they all fall asleep at this time. Although Linghu Heng was so frightened by Lingyao that he almost peed his pants, but after all, he was already running out of energy and soon fell asleep again...
The sound of banging on the street has already reached Haishi. Logically speaking, the inn has closed. But in Zhongzhou Mansion, it is still open during this time. For no other reason than that Zhongzhou Mansion is too prosperous, so the night market has also appeared.
.If Linghu Heng hadn’t already found an excuse to take a nap, he might still be dragged out to the night market by the over-energetic Lingyao.
However, there was very little business in the inn, and it was all because of the unfavorable weather. There was a drizzle in the sky. Rainy days always make people tired. No, even the shopkeeper was dozing off in front of the counter.
. Look carefully, the lobby of the inn, which is a place for people to eat and drink, is also empty. I can only say that business is bleak...
The shopkeeper squinted for a while and heard the sound of bangs on the street. He slowly raised his head and before he could open his eyes, he said lazily: "Let's close, there are no customers anymore..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt someone tapping his shoulder from behind. The shopkeeper thought it was the waiter calling him, so he said angrily: "Don't make trouble, go and close the door, it's closing time!"
Unexpectedly, the hand was still tapping, and the shopkeeper was annoyed: "You don't understand human language or something?" After saying that, he turned around suddenly, but his legs were shaking like chaff in fear, and his mouth was knotted.
Baba said: "Ghost... ghost..."
It turned out that behind him was a gray and white face, which looked completely different from a living person. How could he not be surprised? His performance was quite calm, but little did he know that just now his subordinate, the glorious second comrade, had been frightened.
Falling in the corridor, unconscious...
The "ghost" spoke: "Am I so ugly?" The words were crisp and clear, and seemed to be the accent of a young woman.
The shopkeeper said: "Oh no, what I encountered this time is not a ghost, I'm afraid it's a vixen!" He didn't dare to look at that face anymore, just lowered his head and stammered: "Fox Great Immortal, the little one has no talent.
Er Wuse, please be noble and let the little one go!"
The "Great Fox" spat: "Bah, a dog's mouth can't spit out ivory! Who wants you!" But he said in his heart: "I don't want to be a great fox, like that little fox, not at all
Fun!”
After hearing what she said, the shopkeeper felt a little relieved: "Yes, yes, the great immortal has boundless power, so naturally he won't have the same knowledge as a little one like me."
The "Fox Master" suddenly said: "Do you think I'm beautiful?"
The shopkeeper is a real person in the market. He has been able to survive today by being two-faced and tactful. He naturally knows what to say on any occasion. If he doesn't speak well, he will talk to others and talk to ghosts. Now this "Fox Master"
"If you want something, you have to obey her "old man's" wishes, otherwise you won't know how you died! So, the shopkeeper began to flatter you: "Immortal, you are so beautiful, how have you ever seen such a fairy-like figure?"
The "Fox Master" was really overjoyed and said: "Okay, I guess you know the truth!" After saying that, his whole body floated in the air and went straight to the second floor...
The shopkeeper looked at it, how could he bear it? His heart stopped and he didn't even say "Ghost", he covered his heart and fell straight to the ground, just like the waiter, he was unconscious...
…
The "Fox Fairy" was naturally Lingyao. She was called a ghost by Linghu Heng, and she felt unwilling to do so. After returning to the room, she washed away the original fat and gouache. The more she thought about it, the more something was wrong, so she put on heavy makeup again. But nothing happened.
Someone taught her, but she had no experience. She just relied on watching the coquettish dancing of those salt-free women in the rouge shop, and then she accepted the truth and went back to follow the script, which led to such a joke.
Linghu Heng is just the first victim, and will not be the last. No, this "Fox Master" has gone to harm the guests again. So this night is destined to be an eventful night, at least it will be like this in the inn.
…
At the same time, outside Zhongzhou Mansion, a dozen people in black clothes were gathering together, seemingly discussing something. After a while, they dispersed, as if there was nothing like this on this rainy night...
…
It was already midnight when the shopkeeper woke up from coma. It was already dawn, and there were more and more pedestrians on the road. The shopkeeper recalled what happened last night, and he was still frightened. He looked at the inn again and saw that there was no shortage of things.
Don't worry. It's also because it was a rainy night last night and there were few pedestrians. Otherwise, this inn would be open to the public, so why would thieves not visit?
There was still water on the street from last night. There were more and more pedestrians on the road. Most of them were vegetable farmers who came in from outside the city gate early in the morning and went to the city to sell vegetables to make a living. The shopkeeper felt reassured and helped him.
He sat up on the chair and began to welcome guests. Everyone in the secular world knew that ghosts would not appear during the day, so he dared to be so sure. If he knew about the "Fox Fairy" last night, the "ghost" had returned after getting tired of playing.
What would he think if his room went to sleep?
At this time, the sound of banging on the street rang again, and at the same time someone shouted: "The autumn air is crisp, there is no rain today, the time of Xu has arrived, please put on more clothes sooner or later." It turned out that before you knew it, it was already the time of Xu.
At this time, the guests staying in the inn were already getting up one after another. The shopkeeper discovered that they all had a characteristic, that is, "panda eyes". It was obvious that they did not sleep well last night.
The shopkeeper knew that there must be a reason for this, so he couldn't help but go up and ask: "Dear guests, I wonder if the shop did not provide good hospitality?"
Those guests looked a little embarrassed and said: "No, no, the shopkeeper is worrying too much!" But even though they said this, they couldn't wait to check out of the room and left as if they were running away...
The shopkeeper knew it well, but he didn't say much. After all, the store was haunted, and he couldn't help but hope that the "Fox Master" would not come again tonight.
At this time, Lingyao had returned to her normal appearance and dragged the sleepy Linghu Heng downstairs. Linghu Heng said tiredly: "Shopkeeper, check out!"
The shopkeeper greeted us with a smile: "I'm so sorry, you two, about what happened last night..."
Linghu Hengqi asked: "Last night? What happened last night?"
Lingyao felt guilty and said first, "Nothing happened? We...we all slept well!" She was extremely smart, and it was obvious from last night that everyone regarded her as the "Great Fox" or
She was so angry that she was so angry that she fled back to her room, took off her makeup, covered her head and fell asleep. When she woke up, she found that there was almost no one in the inn...
After hearing this, the shopkeeper pretended to smile and said: "That's good, you two go slowly, welcome to visit the store next time..."
Lingyao's face seemed to be on fire, how could he dare to stay any longer? He dragged Linghu Heng, who didn't know the inside story, and fled as fast as he could... The shopkeeper saw this scene and thought to himself: "It's over, it's really over this time...
"
As expected, no one dared to visit this inn in the future, except for some guests from out of town. People in the city said that this inn was haunted, and some said it was a fox fairy. Anyway, they were unclean things. For the sake of wealth and life,
Naturally, I didn't dare to go there anymore. Seeing that the business was getting worse day by day, the shopkeeper was so cruel that he sold the store and took the money to start a new life. The store was also converted into a restaurant, so he called it "Fox Wine Fairy", so,
In this city, the story of the fox fairy has been passed down...
Linghu Heng said: "Why are you running so fast?"
Lingyao's face turned red and she said, "It's nothing, I want to go play!"
After hearing this, Linghu Heng couldn't help but soften his legs and said, "Auntie, please spare me!"
At this time, they saw a group of people gathered in front of a high wall, as if they were discussing something. Lingyao liked liveliness the most, so in order to resolve his embarrassment, he pulled Linghu Heng and got into the crowd. The two of them
After finally getting to the front, Lingyao discovered that it was a notice, and it also had an image.
Linghu Heng's eyesight was as fast as ten lines, and when he read the notice carefully, he couldn't help being shocked. It turned out that the notice read: "...Today, a shameless man, Linghu Heng, kidnapped a young girl with the intention of doing that beastly thing.
.The poor girl was only twenty-eight years old, but she fell into the hands of a lewd thief. She did not know whether she would live or die. This is really a shame for both humans and gods! Therefore, I would like to make this special statement. If anyone knows the whereabouts of this thief, I will reward you with a hundred taels of silver. If you catch him, I will reward you with a reward.
Ten thousand taels of silver!" Below was the official seal of the government and portraits of the two people. Lingyao's face turned red when she saw it, but she was so angry that she couldn't say a word.
Linghu Heng was so angry that he almost twisted his mouth: "Who started the rumor?" He was so angry that he didn't realize that this sentence should not be said at this time.
It's okay that he didn't say anything. As soon as he said it, everyone looked at him and compared the portraits. Someone immediately shouted: "Catch him, he is the thief Linghu Heng!"
Linghu Hengxin said: "Oh no!" No matter what etiquette, he grabbed Lingyao's hand, forced everyone away, rushed out of the crowd, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. The group of people were stunned when they saw the money.
, where are you willing to let them go? They screamed all the way, but they have already lost track of the two of them... (To be continued)
