Chapter 610 Sneaking into the back hall

At this time, I heard a creaking sound, and the wooden door of the back hall was pushed open. I turned around and saw the old man coming out again with the aluminum basin.

The aluminum basin was steaming and exuding an alluring aroma. When it was brought out, we almost swallowed our saliva subconsciously, and Nangong Xiayu's stomach was even more unconvincing.

"Captain Zhang, can I... eat something too?" Nangong Xiayu leaned close to my ear and whispered, "I'm really too hungry."

I shook my head gently.

This Ah Guo gave people a very weird feeling. Mr. Wu had rejected him before. The reason for this was not that there was something wrong with the meat, but when you go out, the more careful you are, the less risk you will have.

"Haha, Mr. Yu, come and taste the meat that I stewed." The old man put the aluminum basin in front of the table and said with a smile: "How can you go out and eat only these without eating meat? If the God of Joy is frightened, how can you get the strength to let the God of Joy return to his place?" "

Thank you." Ah Wei glanced at the old man, then at the aluminum basin, then shook his head and said: "I have already eaten, no need to bother."

"What a pity, this meat... is not something that everyone can eat." The old man shook his head and then said: "In that case, have a glass of water."

After the old man finished speaking, he picked up the kettle on the table and poured Ah Wei a glass of water. Then he glanced at the oil lamp in the southeast corner and said: "Mr. Yu, take a rest, I will help you watch the Yin lamp."

"No, I can take care of it myself. Don't bother Senior Aguo." After saying this, Awei breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked to another corner close to the God of Joy, and sat cross-legged on the ground.

"Mr. Yu, there is something I forgot to tell you. These guys are the young men in the Wushu Mountain reserve. You should go into the hinterland of the Miaojiang Shiwan Mountains this time, right? Coincidentally, they are also going into the mountains. You can go together and take care of each other along the way." After the old man finished speaking, he stared at Awei with a smile, and the rest of us did the same. We all turned to look at Awei, waiting for Awei's answer.

"There are too many rules for walking corpses. We can only walk at night and rest during the day. If you go into the mountains with me, it may delay you for a lot of time." Awei's voice was heard in the darkness. Wu Sheng said, "Awei is right. In that case, we won't force it. We'll leave at dawn."

Awei didn't say anything else. Seeing this, Aguo didn't say anything either. He just picked up the water cup and placed it in front of Awei: "Take a rest. Drink this water when you're thirsty."

After that, the old man turned around and went back to the back hall.

"How many of you are going into the mountains?" When the old man entered the back hall, Awei's voice suddenly came out from the darkness: "What are you going to do?"

"Awei, you should have heard about what happened some time ago? A flying zombie appeared and slaughtered an entire village in Miaojiang. This time we went into the mountains to chase that flying zombie."

After hearing what Wu Sheng said, Awei in the darkness suddenly opened his eyes, and his bright eyes stared straight in the direction of us, and said: "I have a way to make the God of Joy walk during the day. Tomorrow morning when it's light, I will take away the things of the rest of our family, and then we will set off together." Hearing this

, both Wu Sheng and I had our eyes lit up, and then I heard Wu Sheng say: "Okay, then Lao Awei will be on your side."

"Senior Aguo, did you know you were coming here?" I suddenly asked, and as I said this, Mr. Wu was also startled, and then he looked at Awei.

"I don't know." Awei shook his head and stopped talking, and even his bright eyes closed again. For a moment, the Xishen Inn fell into a dead silence again.

"This Aguo, there is indeed something wrong." I squinted my eyes and whispered: "Aguo didn't know Awei was coming at all, why did he tell us in advance that someone would come and take us into the mountains?"

"It's really strange." Mr. Wu frowned: "It will be dawn soon. After dawn, call Awei and we will set off together."

"Okay." I nodded, then turned my head, looked in the direction of Awei, and pondered.

"Didn't he come to get something? Why doesn't he take it now?" To be honest, I was full of doubts at that time. Since Awei came to get something, why didn't he let Aguo take it out now and leave as soon as possible?

"Does it mean that in order to take this thing away, some specific conditions or time are required?" I frowned and murmured to myself in my heart.

"Qianyu, you guys take a rest. I'll keep watch. I'll call you if there's anything." Mr. Wu turned around and said to me. I shook my head and said, "I'll go with you, Xiao Li, Xiao Fan, and Nan Gong, you take a rest."

Several people nodded when they heard it, and then they all closed their eyes and rested.

At this moment, the Xishen Inn was completely dark, but in the darkness, a man's snoring could be heard from time to time. It was obvious that Ah Wei had been walking all the way at night and was already tired. Not long after he sat down, he really fell asleep.

"Brother Wu," I called Mr. Wu, then lowered my voice and said in his ear, "You stay here for a while, I'll sneak into the back hall to take a look."

Hearing this, Mr. Wu hesitated for a while, and after a long while, he nodded and said, "Then you should be more careful, and remember to take a look in the pot. I suspect that there is something wrong with the meat he stewed."

"Yeah." I nodded and then sat back down.

Time passed by minute by minute. At this moment, it was already past three in the morning. This time period was when the sky was about to get light but not yet bright. It was the darkest time of the day when the yin and

yang alternated. It was even darker inside the Xishen Inn. In the darkness, the sound of a man's snoring could be heard from time to time.

I knew the time was almost up, so I took a deep breath, nodded to Mr. Wu, and then stood up, bent over, tiptoed, and quietly moved towards the back hall.

I walked very carefully. When I walked to the wooden door, I did not push it open directly. Instead, I put my ear to the door panel and listened carefully to the movement behind the door.

But when I listened, I found that it was very quiet behind the wooden door. Not to mention any sound, there was not even the sound of people breathing.

Moreover, as I approached the wooden door of the back hall, the strange stench of corpse that I smelled before became stronger, as if the smell was coming from the back hall.

"This smell... Could it be that there is a corpse in the back hall?" I frowned secretly.

After listening for a while, I was extremely sure that there was absolutely no one in the back hall.

With my five senses now, as long as there was someone in the back hall, his breathing would not have escaped my ears.

But I listened for a long time and didn't hear any sound.

"Where did Ah Guo go?" I turned my head to look in the direction where Mr. Wu and the others were, and I saw that they had already been swallowed by the darkness. From where I was, I couldn't see Mr. Wu and the others at all, not even their outlines.

"It's so dark." I muttered to myself, then took a deep breath, raised my hand, and gently pushed the wooden door.

"Squeak..."

A harsh old sound came out, and it was the wooden door that was pushed open by me!
