At first, that person had some fighting power, so even with four people, they couldn't take him down directly.

But he was just an ordinary person after all, and couldn't withstand the attacks of four people. In less than ten minutes, he was subdued.

Knowing that he was no match and couldn't escape, the man sighed helplessly and said, "Even if you kill me, you won't leave here alive."

The middle-aged man didn't care about that at this point. As if he had gone blood-red in the eyes, he directly stabbed the person in the chest with a knife.

The chest again!

The difference was that the moment the knife went in, blood splattered out directly.

Damn it!

Even the people standing next to him were splattered with blood on their faces.

The person glared fiercely at the middle-aged man, then lay on the ground unwillingly.

After a while, he stopped breathing.

However, his eyes were wide open, obviously not dying in peace.

The middle-aged man didn't care whether the person died in peace or not. After seeing that he was dead, he immediately asked the boss, "I've killed him. Can you let us go now?"

"If you killed him alone, I could let you go. But the problem is, you relied on the strength of others, so I'm sorry, I can't let you go. As for the others, none of them can leave."

The boss said with a smile. Just looking at his appearance, you couldn't tell that he was the kind of person who would do such a thing.

So, most of the time, you can't just look at a person's surface.

The middle-aged man immediately became angry and questioned the boss, "Aren't you playing with me? You clearly said just now that as long as I killed him, you would let me go. Now you say it's not possible. If I couldn't rely on the strength of others, why didn't you say so?"

"You didn't ask!" the boss replied nonchalantly.

The middle-aged man was speechless.

What was this all about?

Killing someone and still not being able to leave, was he supposed to atone for what he had done?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

The middle-aged man looked coldly at the boss and said, "No matter what, I'm leaving here."

With that, he walked straight to the door.

But he regretted it as soon as he reached the door, because a lot of evil spirits had already gathered around.

If he left now, he would definitely die.

But if he stayed here, he would also die.

What the hell was the middle-aged man supposed to do?

If he was going to die either way, he might as well die more quickly.

The middle-aged man returned to the room, looked at the boss and said, "I'll leave tomorrow morning."

"Haha..." The boss suddenly laughed, as if mocking the middle-aged man's ignorance.

But the middle-aged man was indeed foolish!

Yuan Mu Ye couldn't stand it anymore, but he didn't want to get involved, so he planned to go back to his room to rest. As long as he could get through tonight safely, nothing else mattered.

Just as he was about to leave, the middle-aged man suddenly stopped Yuan Mu Ye.

"Wait, don't go!"

Hearing this, Yuan Mu Ye instinctively stopped and turned to look at the middle-aged man, looking surprised.

"Something up?"

The middle-aged man walked directly to Yuan Mu Ye's side and asked in a low voice, "What's your relationship with the boss?"

Yuan Mu Ye was also stunned, not expecting the middle-aged man to ask such a nonsensical question.

He had no relationship with the boss. If you had to say they had a relationship, it was that of a customer and a boss.

Why would the middle-aged man suddenly ask this for no reason?

"Is it any of your business?" Yuan Mu Ye asked, looking at the middle-aged man in surprise.

The middle-aged man said expressionlessly, "You must have a relationship with the boss. Otherwise, why is he only targeting us and not you?"

Speaking of this, Yuan Mu Ye also felt strange. Leaving aside everything else, why was the boss making trouble for these people?

Before these things happened, they didn't seem to have offended the boss, did they?

The boss had kindly taken them to the cellar, unless the boss had ulterior motives from the beginning.

"Ask the boss!" Yuan Mu Ye didn't want to talk too much nonsense with this guy, mainly because it was meaningless.

As soon as he finished speaking, the boss probably heard their conversation, and walked over and said, "Because he is a guest of the inn. We have a rule here that as long as you are a guest of the inn, no matter what kind of person you are, we will guarantee your safety."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man felt even more unbalanced.

Why?

Everything he had done was for self-preservation, but he ended up like this!

When registering in the evening, he was just one step slower, but the result was completely different.

"Then what did we do wrong? Why do you have to push us to this point!"

The middle-aged man couldn't bear it any longer. He could endure other things, but he couldn't endure this, because if he did, he would be the one to die.

Sometimes, you have to fight for it, even though you don't know the ending, at least you won't regret it.

"From beginning to end, I haven't done anything. You brought this upon yourselves."

The boss said indifferently.

When Yuan Mu Ye heard this, he was also stunned. Was the boss denying what he had done?

The middle-aged man pursed his lips, wanting to say something, but he didn't know how to start.

"You go up first!" The boss looked at Yuan Mu Ye and said.

Yuan Mu Ye didn't say anything and turned around and went upstairs. But after returning to his room, he still felt uneasy.

Feng Ge saw that Yuan Mu Ye was a little distracted, and asked, "Brother Yuan, did something happen?"

Yuan Mu Ye didn't want to tell him about this, but after thinking about it, it wasn't a big deal, so he told him about it.

"Brother Yuan, I feel that the boss doesn't want to take revenge on them, but wants to take revenge on the people who entered the cellar." Feng Ge said thoughtfully after listening.

That made sense, but in the end, those people were still innocent. After all, the boss took them in.

Why was the boss doing this?

Feng Ge seemed to have thought of something, and said to Yuan Mu Ye, "Brother Yuan, what about that storybook?"

"Here it is!"

Yuan Mu Ye took out the storybook.

Feng Ge took the storybook and read it again.

After reading it, he looked up at Yuan Mu Ye and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the boss should be the god in the story."

"That... how is that possible?"

Yuan Mu Ye looked at Feng Ge incredulously, thinking that this was just his guess.

But after thinking about it carefully, some things were indeed too strange.

For example, the cellar, the boss's resurrection, and even the doppelganger.
