Chapter 1 Restricted Area

Author: Shiyin1

Jiang Shan opened the book with a red cover in his hand. It was very thin, with only three or two pages.

When I checked in just now, the front desk gave me this booklet together with the room card, but many people didn't pay attention. They thought it was another tourist brochure, and some people just threw it into the trash can.

Jiang Shan turned over the first page and saw clearly written on the header: Things to note when checking into a hotel.

1. It is forbidden to go out after five o'clock, and activities can only be done in the hotel.

Jiang Shan subconsciously glanced at the wind-up clock on the wall. It was just after five o'clock, and it was now five o'clock.

The tour guide was still explaining hard: "Look, everyone! The grooves on the cave wall are all formed by natural oxidation. They have a history of at least thousands of years...until a mysterious wealthy businessman took over here in the last century.

, converted into a cave hotel.”

It was the first time for many people to see a cave hotel. They excitedly raised their cameras to take pictures. Along with the constant clicking sounds, some people reached out to touch the grooved holes and found that the interior was very smooth, like the surface of pebbles.

Same.

Some people marveled at it and said that water droplets penetrated the stone after thousands of years, indicating that this cave has existed for an unknown period of time.

Everyone has experienced a month of exciting and exciting travel, driving cross-country through the desert, skydiving from an altitude of 10,000 meters, surfing in the sea, and bungee jumping on the mountain, and the cave hotel at the last stop is so unusual.

Tour guide Xiao Chen saw the unfinished expressions on everyone's faces, rolled his eyes, and suddenly said: "Have you heard about the last tour group?"

Except for Jiang Shan, who lowered his head to read the manual, everyone looked at Xiao Chen.

"Last tour group?"

Xiao Chen blinked his cunning eyes:

"I also heard from the last group leader that someone in their group secretly left the group at night, climbed up the mountain behind, and came back just before boarding the next day. I heard that the whole person was completely lost."

Someone looked through the artificial windows cut into the cave and saw the stretching mountains outside.

"Why, are there monsters on the mountain?" someone joked.

Xiao Chen deliberately paused for a few seconds to whet everyone's appetite, "I don't know about that. I just heard that a few days after his return... he suddenly made a huge fortune."

Everyone's mouths were open.

The corner of Xiao Chen's lips curled up. Ordinary ghost stories these days can no longer attract people, so they have to add something eye-catching like this.

"So some people speculated whether he had dug up antiques or something in the mountains and made money by selling them."

Someone sniffed. "It's really fake."

Xiao Chen still said in Shinto: "If you don't believe it, just ask anyone in the group and you will know whether what I said is true."

At this time, a voice sounded confused: "I remember when I checked in just now, did the hotel staff say that the back mountain is a restricted area and I am not allowed to go there?"

And when they came in, they also saw that the area around the cave hotel was still surrounded by iron fences.

As soon as these words came out, many passengers showed expressions of watching the excitement on their faces.

Xiao Chen chuckled: "I heard that this cave was not allowed to be dug after it was dug here. The wealthy businessman who bought it is said to be as rich as the country. He spent hundreds of millions just to renovate this hotel. It was originally planned to run through the entire mountain.

, formed the Huanshan Hotel... tsk tsk, but I don’t know why, the work suddenly stopped, and the back mountain was also surrounded, and no one was allowed to enter. "

The more I talk about it, the more curious I become. The most attractive thing about travel is often not the scenic spots, but the mysterious and bizarre stories behind it.

"Are you saying that something is really buried in the back mountain?" Is there a gold mine? Antiques? Treasures?

Jiang Shan frowned, and Jiang Shan saw the second note at this time: the back mountain is a restricted area, and tourists are not allowed to visit.

But many people were intrigued.

Xiao Chen then said: "What don't you know? After all, no one has seen it with their own eyes."

This itinerary was planned for young people who love adventure, so there were so many exciting projects. Someone looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Why don't we go take a look?"

Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and deliberately remained silent.

Another person said: "Yes! You will know if you go and see it?"

These days, what if there is really something good on the mountain for the brave and the timid? Even if there is not, there is no loss. Everyone is just out for fun, so it would be great to add an attraction.

When Xiao Chen saw the bait being thrown out being caught by someone, he said deliberately to tantalize his appetite: "Do you really want to go? It's getting dark now. If there are few people, forget it..."

Immediately someone raised their hand: "I sign up."

Then people responded one after another, and everyone came, and no one wanted to miss this opportunity.

A smile flashed across Xiao Chen's eyes, but he still coughed dryly: "Those who want to go, please come to register with me before six o'clock. The tour guide fee is 150 per person. We accept cash transfers via Alipay and WeChat... We will not wait if you are late."

Listening to the continuous payment prompts, Xiao Chen smiled, and suddenly he caught a glimpse of Jiang Shan sitting alone in the corner.

The little girl was sitting right in front of a huge groove. The shadow of the groove completely covered her thin figure. In addition, she remained silent, so you couldn't even notice her sitting there if you didn't pay attention.

Suddenly, Xiao Chen's smile faded a bit.

As a tour guide, Xiao Chen finally experienced what kind of person he hates the most this time.

Most of the people who travel are in groups of friends. Only this little girl named Jiang Shan signed up for a group tour by herself. Every time she got off the bus to visit or take photos at a scenic spot, she would always stay alone.

, I didn’t bring a camera or take pictures, I just sat there in a daze.

I really don’t know what to do here. At first, Xiao Chen saw that she was a little girl alone and wanted to take care of her. But who knew that Jiang Shan was not good at all. Along the way, he worked so hard to lead the group. As a result, all the paid activities

, this girl almost didn’t participate, and in the second half, Xiao Chen really didn’t bother to pay attention to her.

Why travel when you are poor? Xiao Chen was already talking dirty words in his heart.

But it was the last day, and there was no need to break up. Xiao Chen still put on a professional fake smile on his face, and pretended to persuade Jiang Shandao: "Everyone has signed up, are you really not going? We will return tomorrow, don't go more

What a pity."

Jiang Shan's little face was a little pale, and he still held the manual in his hand: "Sorry... I'm tired and want to go to bed early."

Xiao Chen's back teeth were itching, and he forced out a smile: "Then you stay alone in the hotel, so be careful."

Jiang Shan pursed his thin, bloodless lips and nodded slightly.

Xiao Chen didn't really care about her. He was eager to get rid of this burden. When Jiang Shan nodded, he immediately turned around and raised a smile to greet his real God of Wealth.



Jiang Shan returned to the room and locked the door.

Xiao Chen led the group of restless travelers around to the back door of the hotel and quietly went up the mountain. To them, being discovered by the hotel was nothing, as they would leave here and go back tomorrow anyway.

Xiao Chen, who only had eyes for money, and the group of heartless travelers didn't even notice that Jiang Shan was a patient along the way. They even acted quite sarcastically when she slowed down the trip, and even mocked the little girl for being naturally weak.

The purpose of Jiang Shanbao's trip was to see the outside world in his last days.

As for the cold looks from passengers along the way and the dissatisfaction of the tour guide, Jiang Shan, who was about to die, would not take it to heart at all.

Jiang Shan took out her medicine bottle from the compartment of her backpack, poured all the pills into her hand, counted them, and found that there were three pills left. After eating today, she was ready to face death.

Putting the medicine into his mouth, Jiang Shanping lay down on the bed.

The red booklet was placed on the bedside table by Jiang Shan. The last page it opened read: Please lock the door at night. I wish everyone a good night's sleep and a pleasant journey.

Jiang Shan vaguely heard the ticking sound of the old-fashioned clockwork clock on the wall, which seemed to be ten o'clock in the evening.

And Xiao Chen and the group of tourists haven't come back yet, and the whole hotel is as quiet as an empty city...
