Chapter 20: Behind the wall

  Chapter 20 Behind the Wall

  The voice was very loud, the little idiot stopped immediately, his eyes signaled Xiaolan, Xiaolan knowing, flew towards the stairs, like a rabbit poking out from a hole to check the situation, looked around, waited a few seconds to make sure there was no one.

   Xiaolan quietly climbed out of the stairs and moved slowly to the restaurant. Here, Xiaoyin and her sister at the front desk can already be heard chatting.

   "Gosh, why is this, why don't you dump him when he did this?"

   "Oh...we have been for several years...nor..."

   "I love you so much, what are you going to do..."

   "I don't know, I feel confused...but it feels much better to talk to people..."

   Xiaolan took out the mobile phone given by Dao Chang, entered a string of text, and sent it out.

  Put your ears up and listen.

  The breeze blows from the front door to the back door. What the wind brings is only the dialogue between Xiaoyin and her sister at the front desk. Xiaolan is still and calm.

  Occasionally passing by a few cars outside the door, the leaves are also rustling, the farce just now has passed, everything is back to peace.

  There is no extra sound.

   Xiaolan squeezed the phone tightly, in a cold sweat with nervousness.

  Finally, the news has arrived.

   "Chisel the wall eight times, take two bricks, can you hear it?"

  Xiaolan typing.

"Safety."

  Finally can finally explore the secrets!

   Xiaolan turned around and stepped towards the stairs step by step, doing everything he could, but still urging herself anxiously.

  "Why do I think there seems to be a sound in the restaurant?"

  The questioning words of the sister at the front desk also reached Xiaolan's ears, and Xiaolan stopped in fright.

  Don’t come don’t come don’t come...

  Don’t give up all your efforts at this time!

The back of    was soaked in cold sweat, as if a hand was slowly climbing up Xiaolan's back and strangling her throat.

   "Huh? What sound?" Xiaoyin was talking, "You are watching here, I will take a look."

"it is good."

   Xiaolan finally relaxes, feeling that the whole person is sublimated.

  Although I know that my sister at the front desk will not do anything to me, this feeling is too terrible...

  Fortunately, Xiaoyin reacted fast enough, Xiaolan squatted down, listening to Xiaoyin's footsteps gradually approaching.

   Xiaolan turned her head and saw Xiaoyin standing behind him.

   "Nothing, you heard it wrong," Xiaoyin pretended to look around, leaving Xiaolan an encouraging look, "Or I will close the back door, you can't come over by yourself."

   "No need, let me go!" The sister at the front desk said from a distance, accompanied by the sound of getting up from the chair.

   "Oh no, no," Xiaoyin walked straight to the back door, and when passing by Xiaolan, he waved her hand to beckon her to go quickly, "You watch at the front door, in case a thief enters..."

  Can't wait any longer.

   Xiaolan rushed into the basement under the cover of Xiaoyin's footsteps.

  ——————————

   Breathing heavily, Xiaolan saw two people leaning in the corner.

  The movements of the Taoist leader and the little fool stopped, and they were discussing something in a low voice by the wall.

  Xiaolan was very curious. The two didn't seem to get the result, but why didn't they continue? With such curiosity, Xiaolan also leaned over.

   "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

  The first thing I saw was the red bricks in one place. In the short time they went out, the Taoist and the little idiot had taken out so many bricks.

"Xiaolan, thank you for your hard work," Daochang turned his head, frowning, and beckoned Xiaolan to stand next to him, "The fool has taken out three layers of red bricks and hasn't dug anything yet. We are now We are discussing whether to continue digging or fill in first, and we will see it later when there is a chance."

   "Well," Xiaolan nodded, "It's really hard to decide."

   "Then you give me an idea."

   "...?"

  What idea do I have? Why do low-level employees like me make decisions for such major decisions?

   "I, I, I... I didn't... I decided how to become..."

   Xiaolan looked at the Taoist chief, looked at the little fools, looked at the holes they dug, and felt not only at a loss but also humble.

"I and Dao Master can't decide to come out," the little fool shook the hammer in his hand, giving Xiaolan an illusion that it was very light. "This time, Xiaolan has the final say, just in case something goes wrong. Push it to you."

"Xiaolan, don't listen to him talking nonsense," the Taoist chief patted her shoulder solemnly. "We two boys only understand the pros and cons. Now we need women's perception to guide us, and Xiaolan is a clever boy. We are both very clever. I believe you."

   Xiaolan looked at Dao Master's serious explanation. What she thought in her heart was that she didn't have any random thoughts before Dao Master explained. After he explained, Xiao Lan seemed to really see a black pot flying towards her.

  But the time is tight now. I don’t know how long Baomu and Pineapple Maple can last. The more you drag it down, the higher the possibility of accidents.

  Difficulties are really hardening. Xiaolan ignored the black pot and carefully analyzed the current situation.

"Our original plan was to figure out the secrets of this wall today, and tomorrow we will enter the village to inquire about the girl who burned to death and the villager who died." Xiaolan grabbed her hair and looked distressed. "After that, we will return. To confirm who committed suicide on the mountain, and to find the'world' of the dead..."

  The Taoist and the little fool nodded and listened carefully.

   Xiaolan made his own decision and raised his head to look at the two of them.

"Actually... we don't seem to have any extra time. We can go back to the hotel and arrange a new bureau to trick the bosses out. And I always feel..." Xiao Lan was a little self-doubt, after seeing the trusting eyes of the Taoist , His tone became more confident, "I always feel that the secrets of this hotel and the secrets of the village may have something to do with them."

  Dao Chang nodded, looking at her with complicated eyes.

   Xiaolan didn't know if what she said was right or wrong, and looked at the two back and forth.

  Decide faster anyway.

   "Okay, do it!" The little idiot saw the eyes of Xiaolan and Daochang, and felt that Xiaolan made more sense, and tightened the hammer in his hand, "Just for gakki!"

   With one hammer down, the chisel penetrated into the wall, and the little fool leaned over the chisel skillfully, and with another hammer, half of the brick was pried out.

   Xiaolan was stunned, no wonder it was so fast.

   "The fool has a lot of strength," the Taoist chief smiled at Xiaolan, "We will give him all the strength, you are welcome."

   "This is considered to be hard work? You still don't know me enough."

  The little idiot took down the dug bricks, and the three of them leaned forward to observe whether the bricks were endless bricks, or the secret that everyone was looking forward to.

  The line of sight is dark.

   Xiaolan was puzzled, thinking that if it were bricks, it shouldn’t be dark.

  The Taoist leader and the little fool saw a piece of the black hole, and they were obviously excited. The little fool speeded up their movements, chiseling bricks and taking bricks as fast as they doubled the speed.

   Xiaolan knew that something good had happened, and got up in a hurry, but she couldn't do much, so she could only help with stacking bricks.

  The secret of the hotel, the secret of the village, you can immediately see the corner of reality in this vast fog.

  As more and more bricks were removed, a large black hole appeared in front of several people.

   Seems to have guessed this situation a long time ago, and none of the three reacted very violently.

   "This boss's house really has a secret road."

  The three people probed into the hole, and the Taoist commander turned on the flashlight, trying to see how deep the hole was and where it led to.

   Xiaolan also conceived a series of results in his mind. The secret road leads directly to Lianshui Village, there are corpses hidden in the secret road, and someone suddenly rushes out of the secret road, and he has made all the psychological preparations.

  But things are all different from what she imagined.

"This…"

  The little fool's voice sounded from her right. Xiaolan wanted to express the same as the little fool at this time, and could not say anything except doubt and astonishment.

   "It seems that things are not that simple." The Taoist took a few more glances and left from the side of the hole. "Let's put the bricks back first. There is nothing to investigate here."

   Xiaolan's brows were already frowning, and she finally took a look at the big hole that she finally dug out.

The   hole opens vertically downwards, and the secret road that should have been spacious has been sealed off at this time.

  The cave is full of rocks and debris.

  Stones of different sizes, even ceramic shards and pots and pans, the passage is so blocked by various things, the secret here is concealed.

   also covers up segments of sad stories.
