Mr. He's fingers became increasingly abnormal, and even his palms, which had looked quite clean just moments before, became rough and cracked at this moment.
It felt like spending ages searching in a graveyard.
It wasn't just that his skin was rough and cracked; he also noticed that there were several hairs stuck inside his fingernails...
This... it can't be human hair, can it?
I was stunned.
Looking at the poplar tree next to me again, it was just a few leaves hanging sparsely, but now, the leaves are turning yellow and bending rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Soon, black mold spots appeared on the leaves of the poplar tree.
Just then, a gentle breeze blew by, and the leaves fell to the ground with a rustling sound.
I looked over in surprise, then glanced at Yiyi beside me; she looked just as surprised.
The scenery here changes so fast!
This is not a normal growth rate at all.
Thinking about this, it suddenly dawned on me that this shouldn't be the normal production speed, because the flow of time around this hotel is different from that of the outside world!
"Brother, look at the soil!" Yiyi suddenly said in a trembling voice.
"Master, the soil seems to be climbing up, and it seems to be climbing this way!"
The sound of lightning striking the sword rang out almost simultaneously.
I looked down at the mound of earth. The soil that the two men had just turned over was strangely pulsating in some of the remaining soil.
This scene left me speechless; it wasn't the wind blowing, the wind right now wasn't strong enough to move this place.
The feeling was more like something was forcefully pushing out of the soil!
The mounds of earth that were bulging outwards were getting bigger and bigger, and they even had a slightly sticky feel to them.
It looks like this thing is scratching at you from below with its claws.
I slowly squatted down and used my fingers to remove a little bit of soil from the surface. The almost translucent silk thread immediately wrapped around me, so I quickly pulled my hand away.
hair! ?
Upon closer inspection, I realized it wasn't actually hair, but it was sticky and somewhat cold, like the candy from before.
And I can guarantee that this material is definitely not human hair, but rather like the fine threads spun in some factory.
I felt at least relieved.
Don't touch it!
I had just relaxed a little when Boss He suddenly spoke, which startled me.
His voice was a bit deeper than before.
"The soil isn't fully mature yet; there's something tangled underneath. Don't break it."
thing?
What else could it be? I looked at the man surnamed He, but he still had a mysterious smile on his face and didn't offer any further explanation.
Good grief, you old codger, whether you tell or not depends on your mood, huh?!
I withdrew my hand and stood there dumbfounded, only to see Boss He squatting on the edge of the field.
Meanwhile, the soil on the ground was turning over more slowly.
This time, however, Mr. He's hands had recovered quite a bit of their dryness and cracks, and some color had returned.
This guy can control the changes on his body surface?
I didn't understand, but I just watched from here.
Yi Yi was the same; she also had a rather puzzled expression at this moment.
Perhaps she was also quite unfamiliar with this place.
I wanted Yiyi to take out the pocket watch that Lao Liu had left us to look at, but then I heard the waiter's voice from the side.
"Brother He, what's wrong with this broken shovel?"
He was pulling hard with the shovel, the shovel head already stuck in the soil. The soil, which had looked soft and had just been turned over, now seemed so hard.
The waiter tried to pull it out, but he couldn't get it out no matter what he did.
Seeing this, Boss He quickly went over to help. The two of them worked together, and with a clang, the shovel was finally pulled out.
To my shock, half a tattered clothes hanger was hanging on the shovel.
Upon closer inspection, I noticed that the hem of the garment was dark blue, with some mud spots on it.
The lightning sword immediately shouted in my mind.
"Master, aren't these the boss's clothes?!"
Although Lei Jijian's shout just now was a bit rash, this time he seems to have hit the nail on the head.
Upon closer inspection, I realized that the material of that half-worn piece of clothing was exactly the same as the work clothes the boss was currently wearing!
Not only that, but it's worth noting that there was a bit of slime on that foot. Upon closer inspection, I realized it was translucent slime.
I took a closer look, and it still had a familiar sweet and fishy smell, very similar to the smell I had in the thick fog before.
The waiter frowned, looking puzzled.
"Where did this rag come from? And it's all sticky! Brother He, there's really a lot of stuff in this field!"
Mr. He stared at the hem of the garment, his face instantly turning pale.
And when I saw this scene, I was almost stunned on the spot.
What is this?
Isn't this exactly the same as what that boss was wearing?
Could it be... that he buried his clothes in there?
I glanced at it, and at that moment, the girl beside me tugged at the hem of my clothes slightly, and then spoke in surprise.
"Brother, look, this outfit looks exactly the same as what Boss He is wearing now, it even looks like the same one..."
It looks like it was just torn off his clothes!
As Yiyi spoke, her voice trembled more and more.
Even his upper body began to tremble.
Boss He didn't say anything, but his eyes furrowed slightly. Then he rolled up the corner of his clothes and formed it into a ball.
I thought he was going to throw it far away, but to my surprise, he stuffed the ball into his pocket the next second without any oddity; the movement was natural.
Holy crap?
You're trying to erase what just happened, aren't you?
With our two pairs of eyes and the sword spirit, we can see everything clearly here.
Although we don't know exactly what happened, Mr. He, there's definitely something fishy about the clothes you just hid.
Perhaps I'm just speculating whether that outfit might belong to the previous Zhou Pangzi?
If this Mr. He can take over Zhou Pangzi's Riverside Hotel, then why can't he steal his clothes?
The person he wiped away, including the hair-like strands just now, is now buried in the turned-up soil...
Could it be Fatty Zhou?
Then it suddenly occurred to me that we had re-entered the second floor and rushed back down to the first floor. We had been waiting for Fatty Zhou in the lobby.
But the old man who came in from the middle, he must be the one causing all this trouble!
But didn't that old man initially just want to stay at a hotel?
Why did they bring us to this scene? And I bet that Mr. He and the waiter are definitely connected to that old man!
My heart was filled with gloom, and I grabbed Yiyi's hand and prepared to leave.
