Chapter 123: Killing without a knife.



At this time, Chi Shen and Ji Xingchen were already in the kitchen.

After entering the kitchen, Chi Shen did not forget to ask: "Why don't you see any wild animals or poisonous snakes?"

Ji Xingchen reminded him: "It's winter now, poisonous snakes and wild beasts need to hibernate."

Chi Shen shook his head: "What a pity! I thought there would be some unexpected gains when I came out - look, there is indeed a barbecue grill!"

Ji Xingchen glanced in the direction Chi Shen said and saw a barbecue grill in the corner. It looked like it hadn't been used for a while and there were some sundries on it. In the previous brochure, there was a photo of a group of handsome men and beautiful women having a very happy outdoor barbecue. Chi Shen was not very interested in handsome men and beautiful women, but he was very interested in eating barbecue.

"Okay, pack up and go grill!"

Ji Xingchen followed Chi Shen, was silent for two seconds, and opened the freezer in the kitchen.

Chi Shen cleaned out the barbecue grill, but didn't find any charcoal. He decided to put this matter aside and deal with the ingredients that Ji Xingchen found first.

There are still abundant ingredients in the kitchen. Even if there are not many tourists, meals for the employees are still provided. Chi Shen picked some ingredients at random and then prepared and cut the vegetables himself.

When he was taking out the kitchen knife, he suddenly stopped and showed a puzzled expression: "There is a knife missing here."

But he soon found another way and said happily, "Forget it, I'll use my own."

As he spoke, he turned his wrist and a boning knife appeared in his hand. He disassembled a rabbit very easily and happily along the texture of the rabbit. His technique was very pleasing to the eye, which made Ji Xingchen take a few more glances.

However, Ji Xingchen did not ask Chi Shen why he was so skilled in using a knife. He just picked some ingredients, walked around the kitchen, and then said, "Someone has been here."

Chi Shen nodded.

"He came and took the knife." Ji Xingchen continued

Chi Shen nodded again.

"If you take a knife late at night, someone will be in danger." Ji Xingchen said.

"Don't be nervous. Maybe the greedy cook took the knife home himself," Chi Shen smiled as he threaded the rabbit meat into a skewer. "Besides, he came to take the knife, which means he is a human, not a ghost. Ghosts don't need knives to kill people."

Chi Shen handled the ingredients very neatly and quickly. In less than twenty minutes, he had neatly arranged various skewers on the baking tray. After he finished all this, he took out his cell phone and made a call.

From the moment they entered Dongshan Hot Spring Hotel, their cell phones had no signal, but his call was connected.

Because he wasn't calling a human.

——

The soundproofing of the hot spring hotel was not good, or very poor. Bai Wan could clearly hear the screams of the female ghost in red in the corridor.

Bai Wan did not hesitate at all. In an instant, the entire corridor was covered with red candles. The door of the room where they lived slammed open, and a gust of extremely cold and gloomy air suddenly blew in.

Then there was a noise coming from the room of the two Zhong family members. Zhong Yi and Zhong Jingzhu climbed over the fence at the other end of the hot spring pool and ran towards the room of Bai Wan and the female ghost in red.

But as soon as they ran to the corridor, they were in trouble. There were red candles all over the floor, and they could smell the cold air when they got close. The two of them didn't dare to move forward at all.

The two were almost stunned and seemed a little at a loss for a moment.

They didn't know Bai Wan's true strength. When they saw the red candles all over the floor, they subconsciously thought that ghosts had come out of the hotel and serious expressions appeared on their faces.

They had no way of dealing with this formation of candles. If this was the BOSS, then the two of them would probably die here.

But in the few seconds they hesitated, the red candles on the ground suddenly disappeared slowly, making way for them.

Bai Wan's voice came from the door diagonally opposite them: "Come in."

Zhong Yi looked at his uncle and prepared to move forward.

Zhong Jingzhu pulled him for a moment, then said respectfully, "Thank you, sorry to bother you."

After saying this, he walked through the road lined with red candles on both sides.

Zhong Yi followed closely behind. The two felt the bone-chilling cold between the bright red candles. They did not dare to stop and quickly passed through this road and entered the door where Bai Wan and the female ghost in red lived.

The inside of the door was in a mess, with chairs overturned and sheets in disarray. The female ghost in red was sitting on the ground, holding her red paper phone in her hand. Her eyes were too wide open and tears were dripping from them. She used her hands and feet to cry and accuse Bai Wan: "A knife! Such a long knife! He wants to kill me!"

Zhong Yi didn't recognize the female ghost in red at first. He was stunned for a long time before he felt that the clothes were very familiar. Then he took a long time to digest that the ghost in front of him who looked like a girl with white bones in her hands and feet was the female ghost in red who followed Chi Shen with only half of his body.

These are definitely two ghosts!

"Who wants to kill you?" Zhong Jingzhu quickly grasped the key point and asked immediately.

The red-clothed female ghost immediately shook her head: "I don't know him, I don't know him! That knife, that knife was on my neck, the phone rang, and he ran away!"

"Do you still remember what he looks like?" Zhong Jingzhu squatted down and looked at the red-clothed female ghost at eye level.

The red-clothed female ghost suddenly got stuck. She sat on the ground for a while and struggled to describe: "He looks like a human being."

The two people and one ghost present were silent.

Seeing everyone's expressions, the red-clothed female ghost seemed to think that everyone didn't trust her, so she supported her skeletal legs and jumped up to explain: "He just looks like a human, how can you not trust me?"

"Why aren't you in the room?" Bai Wan changed the subject.

Zhong Yi and Zhong Jingzhu also gave up communicating with the female ghost in red and explained their actions.

The white paper warning told them not to leave the hotel building at night, but the blood words that appeared next to the hot spring told them to leave the room. After thinking about it, they decided to compromise and climb over the wall to wait outside the hot spring to observe what would happen. Was the white paper warning correct, or was the blood words warning correct?

Now they have come to the conclusion: "The hotel building is not absolutely safe at night. The line of blood words should be telling us that someone... or a ghost will attack us, so let us leave the room. We were not there, so 'it' came to your room."

Bai Wan listened, nodded slightly, and didn't say anything.

"So we decided to go out and investigate at night. We have no time to waste," said Zhong Jingzhu.

"My brother just called me. He is outside too. Nothing will happen." Bai Wan said.

Zhong Yi and Zhong Jingzhu looked at each other. They actually didn't quite agree with Bai Wan's words that everything would be fine. They also felt a little strange that Bai Wan, such a powerful ghost, would trust Chi Shen so much. However, they also knew that now was not the time to ask these questions, so they thanked him politely and left.

They first investigated the line of wet footprints in the corridor. After careful investigation, they finally found that the source of the footprints was in their own room!

Although the footprints had faded a lot, judging from the slight water stains, it looked like someone had climbed out of the hot spring pool in their room and left through the front door.

But they had been staring at the hot spring pool and did not notice anything unusual, nor did they see any ghost crawling out of it.

This discovery made the two of them feel horrified.

"Let's follow and take a look!" Zhong Jingzhu made a decision immediately. The two of them followed the footprints. The footprints remained wet all the time, from the corridor to the lobby, and finally disappeared at the entrance of the hotel building.

The hotel building was very quiet at night, and Zhong Yi and Zhong Jingzhu did not run into anyone. Similarly, they also saw the front desk clerk on duty tonight at the hotel entrance.

Zhong Yi glanced at the time. It was already past twelve o'clock. Most people would be very sleepy at this time.

This receptionist was different too. She still looked very energetic and not sleepy. She wasn't even playing with her phone or watching TV. She just sat there with her head slightly lowered like a statue.

This seems very strange.

Zhong Yi walked forward, took a look, then shook his head at Zhong Jingzhu.

There was no negative energy, and after he walked forward, the receptionist looked up at him. Although she didn't say anything, Zhong Yi knew that she was still alive. She might just have nothing to do and was sitting here in a daze.

The two left the hotel lobby and walked outside.
