Chapter 106: Weird Old Man and Old Lady



Chapter 106 The Strange Old Man and Old Lady

'Tick, tick, tick...'

Drops of water kept dripping on my face. The water drops were extremely cold. After dripping on my face, they slowly flowed into my mouth.

I smacked my lips, and then opened my eyes faintly.

"Where am I?" I looked around blankly.

At this moment, I only felt that my body was floating lightly. Although I was lying on the bed, I still had a feeling that my soul seemed to break out of the shell and fly away.

The next moment, memories flooded into my mind like a tide. I was shocked and sat up suddenly from the bed.

"I seem to be...drunk?" I rubbed my head, with astonishment in my eyes.

As long as I can remember, my master has often fed me wine, but I have never been drunk since I was a child. It is not because I can drink a lot, but because the Yin poison in my body can neutralize the alcohol. So no matter how much I drink, I will not get drunk. At most, I will feel a little dizzy. .7

But just now, I only drank one glass, and I was drunk?

"What on earth did Widow Wang give me to drink?" I couldn't help swallowing.

The next moment, I suddenly shuddered, and my eyes were widened by my glare.

Because I suddenly realized that the place I was in at this moment was not Widow Wang's house.

What caught my eye was not Widow Wang's living room, nor her bedroom, but a room I had never been to.

Compared with the modern decoration style of Widow Wang's house, it is not an exaggeration to say that this place is a cave.

I saw that the room was about 30 square meters in size, and the walls around it were not painted at all. They were the most primitive stone walls. There were even drops of water sliding down from time to time. It seemed that the ground was too damp.

In the middle of the room, there was a stone table with a candle lit on it. Next to the candle, there was a pot of hot tea.

Apart from that, there was nothing else in the room. It can be said that it was extremely simple and plain.

"What is this place?" I jumped up from the bed in shock, but maybe because I was still drunk, my legs went weak as soon as I stood up, and then I fell to the ground.

"Could it be that after I fell asleep, something happened to Widow Wang's family, and she had no choice but to hide me in the wine cellar? But here..."

I turned my head and looked around, then sniffed and murmured, "But it doesn't look like this place!"

If it was a wine cellar, there would definitely be a strong aroma of wine, but here there is no other smell except for a special fragrance.

Just as I was sitting on the edge of the bed with a suspicious look on my face, I suddenly heard a "thump, thump" sound.

And along with it, there was also a sound of footsteps.

"Someone is coming?" My heart skipped a beat, and I hurriedly stood up and tried to hide, but the owner of the footsteps seemed to be able to guess my thoughts, and then I heard an old voice: "Don't be afraid, young man, we have no bad intentions."

As the voice fell, there was a "creaking" sound, and the door was pushed open, and then two old people came in, supporting each other.

The two were a man and a woman, both of them were very old. The old man had a tuft of light yellow beard on his chin. After coming in, he looked at me with a smile, and he was leaning on a cane in his hand.

Obviously, the "clicking" sound just now was made by this cane.

There was an old lady standing next to him. She seemed to be in poor health and was carried in by the old man. She was still panting after entering the house, and it felt like she would die at any moment.

However, compared with the old man's smiling eyes, the old lady's face was much gloomier. When she looked at me, it was as if there was a knife hidden in her eyes, as if she wanted to cut a piece of flesh from my body.

"Who are you?" I stood up suddenly and looked at them warily: "Also, where is this place and why am I here?"

"Young man, don't get excited. I said I have no ill intentions towards you." The old man spoke and said with a smile: "As for where this place is, you don't need to know."

"I don't need to know?" I couldn't help but curse in my heart, thinking to myself, what the hell, am I being kidnapped?

"This boy is so impetuous, how can he be worthy of our goddaughter." Suddenly, the old lady next to the old man spoke up, looked at me and said in a cold voice: "Are you senile? Your goddaughter is still young, so it is inevitable that she will make mistakes in judging people, but you are so old, how can you let her do whatever she wants?"

"Madam, don't be angry, didn't you just see him?" The old man smiled and said, "And I think this boy is pretty good, he is not bad looking, and he is also strong. The most important thing is that the silly girl likes him. We are old bones, what can we do?"

"Hmph!" The old lady snorted coldly and said, "Anyway, I just don't agree. I introduced my distant nephew to her, but I didn't expect that he was killed just a few days after the wedding. In my opinion, this must have been done by that girl in collusion with outsiders."

"Oh, oh, didn't you say it too? He's just your distant nephew. It doesn't matter if he dies. How can he be more important than our goddaughter?" The old man said with a smile, but the old lady was relentless: "That's my nephew, not yours. Of course he is not important to you. Besides, that stinky girl is just our goddaughter. How can she be compared with my nephew? In my opinion, just do it..."

"Shut up!" The old man suddenly looked cold and said gloomily, "What are you talking about? Say it again?"

The old lady seemed to be sarcastic, but when the old man's face was gloomy, the old lady was obviously still a little scared. She immediately shrank her neck and said, "I, I was just talking..."

The old man seemed to change his face. After hearing the old lady's words, the frost on his face melted away immediately. He grinned, revealing his few teeth, and said, "Of course I know you are just talking casually. You know your goddaughter's identity. How could you say such an inappropriate thing? I was just teasing you just now."

The old lady didn't say anything after hearing this, but stared at me with her gloomy eyes.

The old man and the old lady were singing in unison, just like singing a duet, but I was confused listening to them.

"Who is the goddaughter they are talking about? And, a few days after the wedding, the groom was killed by their goddaughter?"

I couldn't help but shudder, thinking, this woman is too cruel.

Moreover, from what they said, it seems that their goddaughter has taken a fancy to me and wants to be with me?
