Ling Ling felt that the ferret in her arms also felt uneasy. She reached out and gently stroked its fur to ease some of the ferret's anxiety.
Ling Ling looked at the sky. It was already dark, and the doors of every house were tightly shut.
"Father of the child, walk faster! Can't you see that the sky is already dark?" A woman said to the man behind her.
The man nodded in agreement and quickened his pace to catch up with the woman.
Soon, there were only one or two people left on the street. Now, only Ling Ling and the ferret in her arms were left. It looked very desolate.
Ling Ling steadied her steps and walked straight ahead. She saw that the doors of the shops on both sides were closed, and the lanterns in front of the doors were blown to one side by the sudden gust of wind.
Ling Ling's footsteps were already very light. Perhaps it was really too quiet here, but even the sound of broken leaves under her feet could be clearly heard.
At the end of the corridor, Ling Ling finally saw a house that wasn't closed. It was brightly lit, and the words " Hongfu Inn " were written on top of it.
Ling Ling walked into the restaurant. It was a very ordinary restaurant. The yawning child saw that someone had come. He immediately cleaned up his tired face, threw the cloth he was wiping the table with on his shoulder, and came over to greet him with a smile.
"Miss, are you here to stay in the restaurant?”
Ling Ling nodded with a smile." Is this a place to stay?"”
"Yes, yes, yes. You can eat and stay here. Do you want to eat or stay here?”the second brother said politely.
"Then I'll stay here for the night."
"Alright! Miss, come with me."
Liu took Ling Ling up a wooden ladder that looked a little old and arrived at a room called Sky No.1.
The room was very simple. There was only a bed with a folded blanket and a table with four chairs.
"Why is it that everyone else has closed their doors, but you have opened the door?”Ling Ling asked.
Seeing his second brother's expression suddenly pause, he immediately regained his smile and said,""Miss, you must be a foreigner! You might not know this, but this place used to be a prosperous place. However, three months ago, there was a sudden demon attack at night. There had been several murders in a row. The yamen had examined the bodies and found that they did not seem to have been stabbed by knives. Instead, they seemed to have been bitten by animals.”
Lu Jingzhi kept looking at Ling Ling as he spoke. He didn't seem to be scared at all when he recalled that terrible incident.
Ling Ling looked straight at Lu Jingzhi. Her calm expression confused him.
"Then why did everyone else close the door in fear, but you dared to open the door? Aren't you afraid?”Ling Ling continued to ask.
The second brother suddenly smiled and said,"Miss!" I've been running a two-meter business for several months now. If I don't open the door, I'll starve to death even if I don't get bitten to death by the monsters. Since I'm going to die anyway, I might as well open the door and do business.”
Ling Ling nodded in agreement when she heard what Liu said.""That's true."
"Miss, do you want some snacks?" asked the second brother enthusiastically.”
Snacks? Ling Ling searched the books in her mind. The people outside all ate grains, and they had to eat three meals a day to be full.
"Alright, give me some." In fact, Ling Ling was also a little curious. Was this snack sweeter than nectar?
"Alright! I'll go and cook a few dishes for you.”Then, he left.
After the second brother left, Ling Ling sat alone in the room, deep in thought. The ferret jumped out of her arms and jumped to the window, looking at something.
Knock ~ Knock ~ Two knocks came from the wooden door.
"Miss, the dishes are here." Second Brother walked in with a smile on his face and a few dishes.
Ling Ling replied with a smile.
Liu put down the dishes on the table and said,""Miss, enjoy." Then, he went out.
Ling Ling looked at the three dishes in front of her. One was green vegetables, the other was peanuts, and the last was something she had never seen before.
He picked up his chopsticks and tasted them one by one. He really couldn't get used to them. He put down his chopsticks and walked to the window to see what the ferret was looking at.
Through the window, he could see nothing but the sound of the wind. Just as he reached out to grab the ferret and was about to close the window, a figure suddenly flashed past.
Ling Ling paused for a moment, then stuck her head out to take a look, but there was nothing. She shook her head secretly. She was really being paranoid because of what her second brother said.
When she turned around, she found an unknown furry object sitting on the stool she had just made. It was desperately grabbing the food on the table with its slightly black hands and stuffing it into its big mouth that could fit two fists as if it was very hungry.
It was as if he swallowed it without chewing. Ling Ling was stunned. When did this guy come in? Could it be that unknown light source?
He sized up the unknown object without batting an eyelid.
It had a furry head and looked like a human, except that it had an extra tail. Its entire body was covered in brown fur, and there were two finger-long fangs protruding from its mouth. It was indeed much uglier than a human.
The monster cleared everything on the table and burped before it met Ling Ling's curious eyes.
Ling Ling could see its fur stand up at a speed visible to the naked eye. After a while, its fur fell down, its eyes were red, and its fangs grew to a foot long. Its orange-yellow saliva drooled on the ground.
Ling Ling was stunned. This guy could grow so fast. And…he seemed to be full of hostility towards him.
The ferret in her arms stared at the monster without moving. Ling Ling could clearly feel the ferret's unprecedented seriousness and seriousness.
She subconsciously took a few steps back until she was leaning against the window.
The monster suddenly saw the ferret in its arms, and its eyes lit up. The disgusting saliva in its mouth became even more intense, and it kept dripping down the corner of its mouth.
The marten suddenly let out a whoosh! 's voice.
The monster paused for a moment, then moved its thick legs and walked toward Ling Ling.
Lingling was a little flustered and didn't know what to do.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door and the voice of the second brother." Miss, I've brought you a pot of tea.”
Ling Ling stared at the monster in front of her and didn't reply.
The second brother asked again," Miss, are you asleep?”
Ling Ling replied," No!"
The moment Liu opened the door, the monster in front of him disappeared without a trace.
Liu came in with a pot of tea. Seeing Ling Ling standing by the window with a pale face, he asked,""What's wrong, miss? But I'm not feeling well. Do you want me to get a doctor to take a look?”
"No need, I'm fine." Ling Ling composed herself and walked over. She felt a little relieved when she saw that the teapot was filled with an unknown flower tea.
In the past, whenever Ling Ling felt uneasy or irritated, she would quietly brew a pot of flower tea alone to calm herself down.
He took the teacup from his second brother and took a sip. Although it wasn't as good as the tea in the valley, he could still make do with it.
