Chapter 31 Two, Tang Seng

A few years ago, when Zhu Neng was the director of the Zoo Management Office, he received a Japanese tourist group.He thought Xu Lan should be speaking Japanese... Grandma Yuan is Japanese? Zhu Neng shuddered. Suddenly, Xu Lan fell silent, as if she had sensed something. Zhu Neng held his breath and slowly backed out. It was not until the afternoon that he and his daughter came home from the playground.Xu Lan was lying on the bed, her body huddled under the quilt, only her long black hair was exposed.Grandma Yuan's room was silent, and it was not known whether she was there or not. After having dinner with his daughter, Zhu Neng sat on the sofa and read the newspaper.

It was already dark outside the window, and the light from the chandelier was pale and pale.He was the only one in the huge living room, and the sound of him flipping through the newspaper: "Wow, wow, wow..." He looked at the corner from time to time, the place was empty, there was no water dispenser, and there was no one there.He didn't know why he was looking at the corner, maybe it was just a subconscious action. Zhu Neng always felt that there was a person standing in the corner, and a horrible scene flashed in his mind from time to time: in the dark living room, a person stood straight in the corner, as stiff as a dead tree, his eyes full of hostility.

Lighting a cigarette, he continued to flip through the newspaper.However, he didn't read any of the densely packed text, he was thinking about other things—— What are Xu Lan and Grandma Yuan talking about?Who is Grandma Yuan?Who is the mastermind of this matter?Sun Kong?Lao Yuan?Bai Jingjing?Grandma Yuan?Or, Xu Lan... She is familiar with everything about Zhu Neng's family, so Sun Kong can know his family's situation like the back of his hand. The relationship between her and the director is extraordinary, so Zhu Neng was arranged by the director to go to Xitian Film and Television Resort.

She knew that he was timid, so a series of creepy things happened one after another, the purpose was to frighten him and make him hand over Xuanzang's parietal bone relic. She had photos of Zhu Yiming and Zhu Neng's father before, so they could forge a fake family photo to deceive him and make him believe that grandpa had done something wrong to Grandma Yuan before. The quilts, pillows, food and water under the bed were all she was playing with. Her keys were not lost, but given to accomplices, so they could show up at his house unannounced.It is even fake that she is not feeling well, the purpose is to distract Zhu Neng so that he has no time to find the truth...

Zhu Neng closed his eyes in pain, he didn't want to doubt Xu Lan. Also, who sent that family photo in the yard?Why is that person doing this?remind him?Or is there another purpose? What happened to this world?Zhu Neng felt that everything became suspicious. After a long time, he put down the newspaper and leaned on the back of the sofa in a daze.It was extremely quiet, neither Xu Lan nor her daughter was snoring in the bedroom, so I don't know if they were asleep or not.A bird was calling strangely outside, and the sound was exactly the same as what Zhu Neng heard at Lao Yuan's house.

There is something wrong with the atmosphere tonight, and it seems that something is about to happen. Sure enough, he heard a knock on the door: "Crack, crack, crack." The knock on the door was very light, and it stopped after three rings, which seemed to be malicious. Zhu Neng stood up, walked quietly to the door, put one eyeball on the cat's eye, and looked out.It was pitch black outside, and the knocker could not be seen. After a long time, the knock on the door rang again, still so soft, as if it was not knocking with fingers, but nails. Zhu Neng remembered that he locked the courtyard door when he returned home. How did people from outside get in?

He suddenly felt the danger. He didn't open the door, and didn't talk to him. He stood motionless behind the door and continued to wait. He hoped that the people outside would leave voluntarily.After another long time, the person outside the door knocked on the door again with their nails: "Crack, crack, crack." Xu Lan came out of the bedroom and said with a tired face, "It sounds like someone is knocking on the door..." Her voice was not low, people outside should have heard it, and the knock on the door rang three more times: "Crack, crack, crack."

Zhu Neng opened the door at once, the sensor light above his head dimly lit up, and he saw a strange woman standing outside the door.Her hair hung down from the sides, covering most of her face, revealing two red lips. "Who are you looking for?" Zhu Neng asked. "Do you know who Tang Seng is?" she said quietly. Zhu Neng was stunned. "Tomorrow at twelve o'clock in the evening, I will wait for you at the Ruyi Hotel in the north of Pansi Cave." After speaking, she turned around and walked away lightly. Xu Lan came over, looked at her back, and said, "Who is she?"

Zhu Neng came back to his senses, and said falteringly, "Oh, a person asking for directions." Xu Lan looked a little nervous. She looked towards Grandma Yuan's room, then pulled him into the yard, and whispered, "I heard her talking this morning..." Zhu Neng was taken aback: "Who spoke?" Xu Lan lowered her voice: "Grandma Yuan, I heard her talking this morning." Zhu Neng looked at her steadily. "I'll tell you one thing, don't be afraid." Zhu Neng looked at her steadily. "A few nights ago, she ran into our bedroom and whispered in your ear..."

Zhu Neng looked at her steadily. "I didn't understand what she said at first. I just remembered this morning. She may be speaking a Japanese dialect. You know, I lived in Japan for a while..." Zhu Neng was even more confused, and Xu Lan also heard Grandma Yuan talking in his ear?Why did she pretend not to know?Why would she tell him now? Xu Lan went on to say: "This morning, I went to her room and tried to talk to her for a while. She admitted that she did everything. Sun Kong, Lao Yuan, Bai Jingjing and others were all found by her. The purpose is to get the Xuanzang parietal bone relic in your hand. She also said that as long as you take out the things, she is willing to exchange all the family property."

Why did Grandma Yuan admit it?Is she really the mastermind?Could this be another conspiracy?Also, she is asking to buy it now, that is to say, Lao Yuan did not find Xuanzang's parietal bone relic in his house. Where did he go?Still at his house? Zhu Neng was at a loss. Xu Lan looked at him and tentatively said, "Why don't you speak?" Zhu Neng's face darkened, and then he smiled woodenly and said, "It's getting late, go to sleep." "What are you going to do?" "I don't know." Zhu Neng said firmly. The next night, Zhu Neng went to Pansi Cave and quickly found the Ruyi Hotel. It was a small gray pointed building, very old, surrounded by tall red walls.There is a wooden sign hanging on its gate, and it is written crookedly in red paint: Ruyi Hotel. Zhu Neng felt that it was more like an abandoned church. It's eight o'clock now, he thought about it, and planned to find a room in the hotel to stay first.Perhaps, that woman lives here.He had to ask her: Who is Tang Seng? Perhaps, knowing who Tang Seng is, we can know the whereabouts of Xuanzang's parietal bone relic. This thing is very important to him. The first room had a faint green light, and there seemed to be someone in it, Zhu Neng walked over. This is the registration room, which also sells some toiletries.A woman with long hair turned her back to him, sitting in front of the computer playing a game, Zhu Neng glanced at it, it was Spider Solitaire. Zhu Neng said: "Hi, is there any room?" She turned around, took a registration book, threw it to Zhu Neng, and continued to play the game. Zhu Neng saw that her hair was very long, covering most of her face, revealing two red lips, and he suspected that she was the woman who went to his house last night. After filling it out, Zhu Neng asked, "How much?" "eighty." After paying the money, Zhu Neng asked, "Is there a woman with long hair living here?" She stood up, picked up an iron ring the size of a plate, on which many keys were densely hung, and then said flatly: "Women's hair is very long." Zhu Neng was taken aback for a moment.Yes, the feature of long hair is not obvious, and most women meet it. "How many women with long hair live here?" She put down the keys and looked through the register: "Three." Zhu Neng's heart turned cold, who asked him to come here? "Come on, I'll take you to your room." Then, Zhu Neng left the registration room with her and came to the door of Room 204.She opened the door of the room, saw Zhu Neng still standing at the door, and said, "What's wrong? Is there any problem?" "Who lives on both sides?" Zhu Neng asked. She smiled strangely and said, "There is a long-haired woman on your left, a long-haired woman on your right, and a long-haired woman on your opposite side." Zhu Neng was completely dumbfounded. After she left, he hurried into the room and locked the door. There are two simple beds in the room, and they creak when they sit on them.A bedside table and a TV cabinet with an old TV set on it.In addition, there are kettles and slippers. He sat down on the bed to the left and listened to the next room.After listening for a long time, there was no sound in the next room, as if there was no one at all. He sat down again on the bed on the right.Likewise, the room on the right was silent at all.Finally, Zhu Neng walked to the door, put his ear on the door, and listened to the movement in the opposite room, but there was also no sound. He regretted a little, regretted coming to this strange place. He didn't know what was going to happen tonight, but his gut told him it was going to be a night of horror. Who is Tang Seng? Who is Tang Seng? Who is Tang Seng? ... Zhu Neng kept saying in his heart that this was the only way for him to overcome his fear. Slowly, twelve midnight approached.
