Help!There are monsters in this pawnshop

Chapter 58 The Front Edge
"...To tell you the truth, there was indeed one before. The guests who lived here claimed to have seen a ghost, but...but we haven't seen one either! I thought they were just talking nonsense and trying to cheat the rent."

The shopkeeper of the inn hid at the door, telling his grievances from a distance.

Seeing Zhu Xiaozhou squatting in front of the bronze mirror, he still thought about it carefully——

Weird in the mirror.

If it were him, he would have been scared out of his wits!

Guests who have lived in this room before often say that they have seen ghosts.But when he came to check, there was nothing.

So he thought that those people were deceiving him, trying to find an excuse to get back the rent.

This time, it was the boy who caught him straight!

After listening to the boy's description, his legs were so frightened that his legs went limp, and he dared to go into the room to take a closer look.

The woman who was almost "eaten" by the ghost just now can still stay in the room without changing her face, thinking about it in front of the bronze mirror.

Zhu Xiaozhou caught the point. "You mean, there have been 'ghosts' here long ago?"

The thing came out of the bronze mirror, was shocked by her yellow talisman, and hid back in the bronze mirror.

No matter how you look at it, it's all related to the bronze mirror!

She asked the shopkeeper, "Where did this bronze mirror come from?"

"This" the shopkeeper was at a loss for words, obviously trying to hide it.

Seeing this, Zhu Xiaozhou didn't continue to question him, as he had already guessed that there was something else going on.

The boy clung to the shopkeeper's ear——

He told about the fact that when the female ghost pounced on Zhu Xiaozhou, Zhu Xiaozhou made a move to subdue her.

The shopkeeper was shocked.

Immediately begged Zhu Xiaozhou for help to get rid of the female ghost so that their inn could continue to operate.

Anyway, Zhu Xiaozhou had nothing to do, and he suddenly became interested. The so-called thief never leaves, so this trip can't be in vain. "It's not difficult to get rid of the female ghost, but—"

She rubbed her fingers, begging for favors.

Although the banshee in the mirror has a demonic aura, she is not hostile.

The shopkeeper couldn't even tell whether it was a demon or a ghost, but deliberately concealed it.Obviously know some inside information, but dare not explain.There is definitely something wrong here that cannot be explained to outsiders.
It's impossible to tell which woman he provoked and then betrayed her.

After finding short-sightedness, she turned into a banshee and came to trouble him.

The shopkeeper suddenly realized, "Oh! That's right, that's right, don't worry, the benefits are naturally indispensable to you."

With that said, he took out two knives and coins from his sleeve and stuffed them into Zhu Xiaozhou's hands.

Zhu Xiaozhou frowned and rolled his eyes in disgust.

Although it is a serious thing, but the quantity is far from what she imagined——

So you want to send her away?
She put the knife and coins back to the boss, sighed, and said that there was nothing she could do.

"Well, I originally wanted to help you. But I suddenly remembered that I have other things to do recently. If I delay because of this, it won't be worth it."

It's just such a small amount of money to send the beggars.

The shopkeeper nodded in agreement, and hurriedly brought some more money.

Wrapped it into a small packet and stuffed it to her.

Flatteringly said, "How can I make you work for nothing? Don't worry, I will never treat you badly."

This amount—

Zhu Xiaozhou weighed it in his hand.

Just make do with it, just accept it when you see it!
Then put away the money bag, went back to the bronze mirror and reached out to wipe it.He took out another sandalwood from the bag and lit it, and stood in front of the mirror!

The green smoke curled up and drifted into the bronze mirror——

Disappeared.

Zhu Xiaozhou took out a ball of thread and searched around.Tie one end of the ball of thread to the pillar in the room, and then step on the dressing table with the ball in hand——

"This is you?"

The shopkeeper didn't know why, so he was only surprised.

"I'll go and see what it is." After Zhu Xiaozhou finished speaking, he turned around and plunged into the bronze mirror——

A living person the moment before.

Suddenly it was gone.

The shopkeeper and the boy rushed over, their eyes widened, and they fumbled for the bronze mirror carefully.
But isn't this just an ordinary bronze mirror? !

How did she get in? !

The shopkeeper rubbed his eyes, and looked at the servant in disbelief, feeling a chill down his spine.

"Zhu Xiaozhou."

Bo Yuan had a bad feeling and hurried over.

But only the shopkeeper and the servant were seen in the room, but Zhu Xiaozhou was the only one to be seen around.

What about people?

The boy came to his senses and pointed his hand straight into the mirror.

When Bai Yuan walked up to the bronze mirror, he immediately became alert——

Demonic.

"How much did you give her?" he asked the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper stretched out his five fingers, his heart still bleeding.

"That's quite a lot." Based on his understanding of Zhu Xiaozhou, Bai Yuan could probably guess it.

Since Zhu Xiaozhou took the money and entered the world in the bronze mirror, he must have seen the clue early in the morning.

"Don't worry, that sister is really good!" The servant said confidently, "Just now the female ghost was behind her, and she beat the female ghost away in one fell swoop, and she will definitely be able to catch the female ghost!"

sharp? ?
Bai Yuan was careless.

When they moved in here, he didn't check everything in the room.

Unexpectedly, there is a hole in the bronze mirror.

On the other side, Zhu Xiaozhou entered the world in the bronze mirror, it was dark at first, and when the light gradually brightened
She finally saw her surroundings clearly.

Actually-

Back in front of the guest house again? !
Standing on the spot and paying attention carefully, there are only a few subtle places, which can be seen to be slightly different from the guest house they stayed in later.

But in general, almost exactly the same!
He moved the satchel on one side behind him, and then strode into the guest house. "anyone there?"

"Is the guest officer going to stay at the store?" Behind the counter, a woman suddenly stood up.

Dressed in rough clothes, it's not very good-looking.

But the delicate features are also eye-catching.

but!

Zhu Xiaozhou suddenly became vigilant——

She recognized the woman in front of her as the banshee in the mirror!
The banshee didn't notice at all, seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, she thought she was worried that this place was not safe. "Don't worry, the store is very considerate! If you need anything, just give me an order."

She also said that her name was Yuniang, and she was the only daughter of the innkeeper.

The father and daughter depend on each other and live in this inn.

only daughter?
Zhu Xiaozhou couldn't help but confirm to her again, only to realize that she really didn't have a brother.

But Zhu Xiaozhou had met the shopkeeper and extorted a lot of money from the shopkeeper, so he was very sure that the shopkeeper was a man.
Could it be that the business was difficult later, and the father and daughter sold the guest house?
Before I could think about it, I heard that someone came to the door again.

When I turned around, I saw——

Treasurer!

wrong!Not the innkeeper at this time.It was later—the one who asked Zhu Xiaozhou to catch ghosts!

This is so outrageous that Zhu Xiaozhou's mind can't turn anymore.

But the shopkeeper who came in later claimed that his name was Lu Yi.He fled here and was penniless.

He begged Yuniang to take him in for two days and give him a full meal.

Yu Niang couldn't bear it, so she took him to the woodshed in the backyard.

Bring him something to eat.

Unexpectedly, he stayed in the guest house in such a grandiose manner.

Yuniang's father was worried that in this time of chaos, he might not know who Lu Yi was.

Thinking that Yuniang shouldn't keep such a man in the backyard, if he is really a bad guy, it's tantamount to leading a wolf into the house.

But Yuniang looked at him pitifully, and believed Lu Yi's rhetoric, and actually regarded him as a poor innocent man who was starving.Yuniang promised her father that when Lu Yi's condition improved, she would persuade him to leave.

But they didn't know that Lu Yi had already followed them.

This is the relationship between Yuniang and Lu Yi.
