Chapter 127 Chapter 15 Absence

Because the fire was so big, it was impossible to rush in, so we could only grit our teeth and watch outside.The anger was still rushing out, and the originally cold weather suddenly became much warmer, and I somehow hoped to burn for a while longer in my heart.The rooms are all made of stones, so the fire does not spread, and the fire will extinguish itself when the firewood is exhausted.We watched anxiously outside, wondering who set the fire.Everyone looked at each other, and no one admitted that they set the fire. I ignored their suspicions and just looked at everything in the fire. Unexpectedly, everyone looked at me in the end. I shouted in my heart, should I think it was I set it on fire, I never left the room!

"What's going on, why is it on fire?" An old voice came from the darkness of the corridor. "Old man, are you alright?" I was surprised, because the old man was standing in front of me intact, I thought he had passed away. "Why do I have to do something? What's going on here, who set the fire!" The hunchbacked old man said angrily. This was the first time I felt that the hunchbacked old man was still happy, angry, and sad when I entered the castle. "I don't know, it's not me anyway." Blue Eyes was the first to deny loudly. "It's not me." Lao Ba hastily denied it.

"I know who it is, don't go too far." The hunchbacked old man said angrily, his hands were shaking, probably because he was so angry that he wanted to hit someone, but who was the "who" he said? "Old man, if you know who it is, tell me, don't worry." Xu Feng persuaded. "That's right, don't be afraid. If you don't tell me, I don't know what will happen in the future." I think I should find out that person, otherwise I don't know if it will kill me one day. "There is no future, you can leave after tomorrow, I don't want to worry about anything, that's it, you go to sleep." The hunchbacked old man said without room for maneuver, obviously determined.

We watched the hunchbacked old man dragging his back into the darkness, and no one said a word. If we had to leave here tomorrow, it would be like leaving us in a barren mountain. God knows if we can walk back.Xu Feng's car was probably already covered by heavy snow. It was already wrapped in mud and rocks, so it was impossible to move it.There is no way to go to the village and no shop behind here. Should we go to Medog or go back? I didn't expect that I didn't sleep in a good dream, but ran out of a lot of troubles.A few of us returned to the hall in disappointment.Seeing that the stove was still flickering, I said angrily, "Who set the fire, it must be one of us. Now it's over, there's no place to stay!"

"How do I know, it seems that everyone has walked out of their rooms." Blue Eyes said with cunning eyes flashing. "Don't talk nonsense, you want to push the matter on me." Lao Ba said excitedly. "I didn't mention you." Blue Eyes said indifferently. "Everyone, stop arguing, and tell whoever did it, or there will be no place to stay tomorrow." Xu Feng suppressed his emotions and panted. "I didn't fall asleep in the room just now. I heard four people coming out of the room intermittently. Have you all been out of the room?" I thought of the movement I heard while sleeping, so I asked.

"It is true that Siyi and I have gone out to go to the bathroom, how about you?" Xu Feng asked seriously. "So do we." Blue Eye hurriedly replied, Old Scar seemed to have something to say, but he hesitated for a long time without saying a word. "That's strange, every one of you is out, so anyone can set the fire," I said. "You live alone, who can prove that you have never left the room?" Blue Eyes asked back. "How can I prove that I live alone!" I said angrily. "Then no one can prove themselves, who knows who went out and did what." Blue Eyes said disdainfully.

"Don't argue, it's fine if you can't prove it. Go back to sleep first, and apologize to the old man tomorrow, and hope he will let us stay for a few more days, otherwise we will suffer." Xu Feng took Yang Siyi upstairs after speaking, I also hurriedly followed. After returning to the room, I felt that my body was much colder, but the room was boiling with heat.It may be because the first floor has been burned for a while, so it is like this in the room.Fortunately, when we came up, the fire had already been extinguished, and there was no possibility of endangering us.The scene was completely burned, and what was left was burned away, but who set the fire?I recalled what happened just now. Although four people went downstairs, they all happened more than an hour ago.For more than an hour when the fire was raging, no one went downstairs at all, so who set the fire?In this way, it is impossible for people living on the second floor to set fire, or is there someone else living here?

I thought more and more energetically, and suddenly I lost my sleepiness, and wanted to walk around instead.I gently pushed the door open, and after making sure that the burning mosquito coils would not cause a fire, I went out quietly.The old man said that he was sleeping in the firewood room, why he was not in the room when the fire started.I thought it was very strange, but no one asked about it just now, so I kept silent.As I went downstairs, I wondered if the person who set the fire thought that the hunchbacked old man was sleeping in the firewood room, so he went to set the fire. Who knew that the hunchbacked old man didn't sleep in that room at all.So some of us want to kill the hunchbacked old man!I thought about it and suddenly felt chills, there are still such cruel people now, the hunchbacked old man kindly took us in, but he wanted to burn the old man to death.

Just as I was about to turn around the corridor, a thing as big as a human jumped over my head, scaring me to avoid it.The butter lamp in the corridor is still on, so we can see the appearance of this thing clearly.It was a thing as big as a human being, and it really looked like a mosquito, but it flew up and swayed here and there, and extinguished the butter lamp after a while.The hunchbacked old man said that the mosquito sucked blood so badly that if he was accidentally sucked dry, his life would be lost, so he hurried downstairs.I turned my head to see if the mosquitoes had followed me, but when I turned around, I saw that the mosquitoes were already attached to me.The head of the giant mosquito is as weird as a gas mask, scarier than seeing a ghost.I ran fast, and when I went downstairs, there was a wind under my feet, and the mosquito didn't follow me, but left my body and flew into the darkness of the corridor.Fortunately, I looked back, but felt that something seemed to be stepped on under my feet, so I looked down and saw a small piece of mosquito coil.

I bent down and picked up the mosquito-repellent coil. This piece of mosquito-repellent coil was very short, only as short as a thumb. Someone might have broken it and dropped it on the ground.I casually threw the mosquito coils into the stove, thinking that if the stove burned the mosquito coils, it might be able to smoke the mosquitoes so that they couldn't find their way.I walked lightly to the corridor on the first floor. The place was still filled with smoke, but the butter lamp was still on.It may be that there is a lot of smoke here, and the mosquitoes dare not approach, so the butter lamp can keep burning.However, I wonder why the butter lamp has been burning tonight.

Earlier, I saw that the hunchbacked old man didn't pay much attention to the butter lamps, and only one or two lamps in the corridor were lit.Now, every one of them is lit up, which may not be discovered yet.The strangest thing was that even the two butter lamps on the desk in the hall were lit, and the silver bowl was also cleaned and filled with clean water.I really don't understand, these two points have changed too much, let alone the butter lamp in the corridor, let alone the butter lamp on the desk is covered with dust, obviously it has not been touched for many years.How come today, it was suddenly lit, and it still looks brand new. I continued to walk down the corridor. Although I was choked by the smoke, I still held back my cough.I came down to see the secrets on the first floor, where the hunchbacked old man slept.I walked towards the place where the hunchbacked old man appeared, and within a few steps I passed the room where the coffin was placed.I walked in unconsciously, and the room was extremely cool, as if it was another world.I just wanted to leave the room, but I heard breathing clearly.I was a little surprised immediately, this place is full of coffins, and it is the site of the dead, how could there be the sound of breathing of the living.I stood where I was, wanting to go out, but also wanting to go in and listen carefully to what was going on.After struggling for a while, I finally decided to go in and see what was going on.The big deal is to bump into a ghost once and see if your horoscope is hard or soft. I held my breath, walked to the coffin, and listened one by one.In the end, the one with the sound of breathing turned out to be the coffin I slept in during the day!I took a step back in disbelief, but vaguely saw that the coffin board was moved out of the gap.I tilted my head and looked in hard.There was something that looked like a corpse inside, and the sound of breathing came from his body.I didn't dare to disturb this thing, so I hurriedly backed out. I wanted to continue walking around, but I hesitated when I saw the things in the coffin.Maybe the hunchbacked old man was burned to death long ago, and what we saw just now may be a ghost.I ran lightly back to the room, but found that the door of the room was open.I remember pulling the door tightly when I went out. Why did it open suddenly?I walked into the room wondering, only to find a person groping in my room. "Who?" I asked warily. "It's me, Xu Feng." It was a familiar voice, so I let down my vigilance. "What are you doing here, not with your girlfriend?" I asked. "Our mosquito coils are gone, so I want to ask you for some. You know, I can't ask Blue Eyes for it. With that attitude, I can't ask that old man. He drove us away like that, so... "Xu Feng said embarrassedly. "Take it, you fold it a little more, I'm not afraid of mosquito bites, it's okay if you fold it a little more." "Thank you. I don't know why, but our mosquito coils burned out so quickly, hehe. Go to sleep, I won't bother you." Xu Feng left the room after speaking. I used my backpack to prop up the door so that no one would push it open.However, at that moment, I thought of one thing - the fire in the firewood room was set by our people, among the five people on the second floor!
