Chapter 15: The tiger is scared
She turned her back and pulled down her long dress with her backhand...
Through the slightly open lace dress, you can vaguely see the red spots on the back, as well as many bruises, some of which have turned black.
"You also have this symptom?" I couldn't help but be surprised!
She turned her back to me and nodded: "It's just this afternoon, I don't have any symptoms of food poisoning."
I took it seriously: "Are these bruises too?"
She choked slightly: "Those...are not!"
Only then did I realize that some of the bruises were old and new and did not appear to have been caused recently. I cautiously confirmed: "Did your husband inflict this?"
Hmm! Perhaps she was afraid of being embarrassed at this moment of silence, so she used this topic to say: "I suffered too much when I was a child, so I thought about marrying into a wealthy family. After I got married, I didn't even dare to idle around, but learned to take care of things. Hotel. In fact, I worked really hard, but everything made him dissatisfied. Take this time, for example, during the last wedding banquet, I repeatedly emphasized to the front office staff that the table could not be cleared if the banquet was not half-full. But they were not at all assured. Yes, everyone is blaming me for the trouble afterwards."
Actually, I don't know how to persuade her, but I thought: "Life is just like eating. Being able to eat well is the most basic happiness. It doesn't matter if you eat better based on your own efforts. But don't pursue satisfaction too much. . Just like sweet and sour live fish, what is the purpose of freshness? Even if the fish is alive at the moment it is served, it will make the diners feel novel. But after a while, the fish will still die, and in the eyes of the diners, it will still be tasteless. In the end , isn’t it still sweet and sour?”
She smiled sadly, as if she had all kinds of feelings...
I didn't intend to get to the bottom of the problem, so I simply changed the topic: "You have bruises all over your body, and you can't even see the lines of the red spots."
Then...she said shyly: "Do you want to turn on the light?"
Forget it! I looked away and said, "I can't see anything. You'd better pull up your clothes quickly."
After the zipper made a sound, she arranged her clothes and asked me: "What should I do next?"
I thought: "It's better to go to the hotel first. After all, that's where evil things happen."
We left the cafe and returned to the car...
I carefully rechecked: "It's past twelve o'clock now, so strictly speaking, the restaurant's kitchen started making noise yesterday morning. Did the red spots on your bodies also appear yesterday?"
No, she shook her head and corrected: "When I took a shower the night before yesterday, I noticed red spots on my back, but those people in the kitchen only developed red spots after they were sent to the hospital today."
I guessed from this: "You should have provoked evil spirits outside. Please remember carefully, where did you go the day before yesterday?"
But she was very sure: "I haven't been to any special place."
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, now I have no clue. I really don't know what kind of mountain spirit and wild monster could be causing the trouble? I once heard Liu Xiazi say that the most common person who kills and kills people is Huangpizi, who can cause people to be hospitalized with food poisoning. Methods to control the python poisonous epidemic. Of course, this is not absolute. Gray Granny among the Five Immortals also has the ability to cure diseases and save people and Qihuang. The specifics will depend on the cultivation of the Immortal family, based on the distinction between civil and military...
While thinking, she had arrived downstairs in the hotel, and Sister Li was adjusting her appearance through the rear mirror.
I know that this is a five-star hotel with catering and accommodation. Even if the hotel is empty now, the security and accommodation staff downstairs are still there. Her embarrassed look will definitely make the employees talk.
"Forget it," I told her, "just wait for me in the car!"
However, she seemed to feel something was wrong: "Can you do it alone?"
I got out of the car and said, "It'll be okay. Although I don't know what the evil spirit is, its target is not me. Just call the front desk and explain the situation."
Then, I successfully got the key from the security guard and entered the hotel alone, but as soon as I opened the door...
I could faintly hear the crackling sound of broken dishes. I couldn't help but tremble in my heart, who could it be?
Following the sound, I came to the back kitchen, where all the lights were on.
It is clearly visible that a girl with red clothes and red boots, who is quite smart, is beating the kitchen utensils. Now is the perfect opportunity...
I quickly recited the incantation and incantation, asking the hall to quell evil spirits!
In an instant, a cold wind suddenly rose and rushed towards the girl in red. This cold movement immediately attracted her attention.
She looked back slightly and shouted angrily: "Go back!"
Immediately, the strong wind suddenly reversed and blew straight back onto my body. Cold sweat broke out on my back, and it wasn't just because of the cold!
But, the tiger actually gave up? How could I not be horrified? The tiger is a Biao, and he is aggressive by nature. When he was at the village chief's house, he never gave up when facing Hu Jiuniang.
She looked at the red string hanging bell in my hand with her beautiful eyes and snorted coldly: "Those crappy things can't even be locked by the female ghost in red at the Express Hotel, and you still want to take them to me?"
How did she know this? I couldn't help but wonder: "Who are you?"
She raised her eyebrows slightly: "Catkins!"
She actually told her name without any hesitation. My heart trembled. I took a closer look at this young girl, who was as tall as catkins, with a waist that was no bigger than a handful. She had beautiful long hair tied up with red silk. She was about seventeen or eighteen years old...
"You are only seventeen or eighteen years old!" The girl suddenly spoke, her pretty face suddenly changed!
This made me even more surprised. I didn’t speak just now, but she seemed to see through my mind! She is so beautiful, is she a fox fairy? She can hear people’s thoughts, is she a cat?
"You're the cat!" She looked disdainful, stamped her feet angrily, and her figure pulled like a phantom and disappeared in an instant.
I was left alone, looking at the broken dishes and dishes all over the kitchen floor.
"What kind of wild monster is she?" I asked Hu Jiuniang in my heart...
But Jiuniang’s charming voice came to her ears: “You haven’t thought of this?”
I am really confused, but I know very well that to practice as a mountain spirit and wild monster, you have to go through a mountain of knives, get down from an oil pan, cross a sea of fire, peel off skin and flesh, suffer from thunder and lightning, ask for human form, and other catastrophes.
"Jiuniang," I couldn't help but feel scared: "She has transformed into a human form, I'm afraid I can't control her!"
Hu Jiuniang's charming voice showed even more disappointment: "Looking at the broken plates on the ground, think about it yourself."
