Thriller Paradise: Routine fortune telling (1701)

Snow is floating.

Sick like rain.

The wind is howling.

As strong as a knife.

A moment ago, there were still many traces on the ground.

There are human footprints, horse hoof prints, and... some strange drag marks.

And now, at a glance, under the hazy moonlight, only a blur of white remains.

Call——

Suddenly, a harsh north wind blew by.

At the same time, a figure appeared on the hillside.

He wore a cloak and a hat.

There is a not-so-big burden on his shoulders; there is a long sword hanging from his waist.

When he came to the heights, he stopped and looked into the distance.

When the small inn that was crumbling in the wind and snow appeared in his sight, he let out a sigh of relief.

In this barren mountain and ridge, among the rocks and deep pine, it is really not easy to find this place with memory, intuition, and the dim moonlight.

It can even be said that it is a miracle...

Boom——Boom——Boom——

He quickly stood under the plaque of the "Miyi Inn" and knocked on the door four times—two long and two short.

Next, he stood at the door and waited silently.

In a short while, there was a movement of moving the wooden latch inside the door, and then the door was opened.

A big man with a big stature and a sturdy back came out. After seeing the face of the man outside the door, he respectfully said: "Big brother, please..."

While speaking, the big man turned sideways and gave way.

The man called "Big Brother" just glanced into the room for a while and stepped through the door.

In the house, there are several lanterns hung up, and there are oil lamps on the table, which is full of light.

When the eldest brother shook off the snow on the hat and cloak, the big man who opened the door closed the door smoothly and reinstalled the latch.

"How did the third child die?" When the man turned around, the eldest brother moved his gaze to a corner of the room and asked.

At this moment, in that corner, there is a person, a man lying.

Of course, it can also be said that it is a male corpse...

Although he hadn't had his head cut off and there were no obvious wounds on his body, the "big brother" could tell at a glance that the man was already dead.

"I killed it." The big man replied almost without thinking.

The "youngest" in the words of the two of them are brothers, but the tone of their dialogue at the moment is surprisingly calm, as if they are discussing someone who has nothing to do with them.

"Why?" After a breath, the older brother asked again.

"He wants to move "goods"." The big man replied.

The eldest brother moved his eyes slightly and looked at the big man: "How to move?"

"Naturally it is the kind of action that will cause bad things." The big man replied.

The big brother took a deep breath, closed his eyes, a few seconds later, then opened again: "Where are the goods?"

"In that room." The big man pointed to a door on the other side of the room, "The fourth sister is responsible for watching."

Big brother thought for a while, then said: "The other people in this inn..."

"The shopkeeper, the man, the guest, there are six people in total..." The big man didn't wait for the other person to finish speaking, and then answered, "Now we are all lying in the wood shed, and tomorrow when we leave, we can destroy the body with a fire... Disappear."

"Okay." The eldest brother said hello, turned his head and walked towards the room that the man had just pointed out.

He pushed the door and went in, and the "four sisters" had already heard the conversation outside, so they stood behind the door to greet each other.

"Big brother." When the fourth sister saw the big brother, she nodded respectfully.

The eldest brother waved his hand casually, and walked straight to the "goods" on the other side of the room.

The so-called "goods" are actually individuals.

A woman.

There is such a woman in this world, they seem to be destined...should not appear in front of men.

They should be locked in the deep palace, hidden in the fragrant boudoir, hidden away from the world.

They’d better only exist in portraits, or in people’s imaginations.

But... they are living in this world after all.

So, when such women appear, where they appear... often there will be fighting and death.

"Hey..." Brother glanced at the woman, then sighed.

There was still a trace of doubt in his heart about the death of the third child, but the moment he saw the woman, that doubt disappeared.

This eldest brother also knows that his third brother is a kind of lustful person, but he doesn't think that the third one will behave in such "important" actions.

Until...he saw the woman.

He only glanced, then looked away.

Because he knows that one glance is enough...enough to imprint her face in a man's heart forever.

If he was asked to look at her a little longer, or to look at her, he might be shaken.

"You guys, aren't you hurt?" The eldest brother turned his head and looked at the fourth sister and asked.

"No, it's just... the third brother..." The fourth sister's tone was hesitant.

"I know." The eldest brother interrupted her, "Don't worry...tomorrow, leave as usual."

After saying this, he turned around and exited the room.

He didn't want to stay there for even a second, because he could feel her gaze.

And he didn't want to have further contact with her, even if it was just a look or a word.

Only in this way can he continue to regard her as a "goods", and can he persist in completing his "task" under the premise of knowing what fate she will encounter.

…………

The time for a cup of tea is over.

The big brother and the big guy (the big guy is undoubtedly ranked second, but I don’t really want to call him "the second") have sat face to face on both sides of a square table with a charcoal beside the table On the stove, there is also a copper kettle that is steaming out.

"Your heart is messed up." The big man took the teacup and stared at his eldest brother's eyes, and suddenly spoke.

"Is this weird?" Big Brother said.

"Not surprising." The big man said. After a while, he added, "Not only the youngest, but every man who has seen that face... will be upset."

"So ~IndoMTL.com~ What's really strange is..." Brother continued, "Why is there no chaos in your heart?"

"What do you mean?" At this moment, the tone of the man's speech and his attitude towards his eldest brother changed abruptly.

"You are not an eunuch." The eldest brother still appeared very calm and said casually.

"No." The big man said.

"It's not Tian Eunuch (also known as Tianhuan and Yin Palace; Lu Xiaojia and Jiang Duanxian in Mr. Gu Long's works are all in this situation)." The eldest brother said again.

"No." The big man said.

"It's even more unlikely that a woman pretends to be a man." The older brother said again.

"Impossible." The big man said.

"Then there is only one possibility." Big brother said.

"Hehe..." The big man smiled, weirdly and smugly... (to be continued.)
