Hot dishes and hot soup were brought and laid out.
Hot water is placed on the washstand, and the tub in the small bathroom next door is also filled with warm water.
The servants and women did not dare to say anything about these fingers, but Zhili always felt that they were all looking at him with their eyes from an angle that he could not see.
After sorting the baggage, he placed the pieces on the long eucalyptus under the window. Then he went to wash his hands. He soaked his hands for a long time and rubbed them again and again with soap tablets, but he still felt uncomfortable.
There were home-cooked dishes on the table. Zhan Li was almost hungry, but he felt he had no appetite.
He wasn't actually afraid of just a broken finger. He didn't go to many places with his master, but he saw a lot. What made him uncomfortable now was that letter and those paintings.
When he saw the words "daughter of Liling", he realized what the unsaid words were about to be said in his throat.
Before meeting Little Senior Sister, Master only mentioned Senior Sister to him once.
The master stood under the stars in Liling, pointed to the room where his elder sister had been alive, and told him that he could go anywhere in Liling, but he couldn't touch the elder sister's things.
That was the only time Master mentioned her.
Everything about Senior Sister was later told to him by Sect Master Pei when he went to Yuanhe Sect.
The elder sister mentioned by the old patriarch Pei was a stunning and legendary figure who was loved and praised by everyone during her lifetime. After her death, everyone was sad and mourned.
It was so sad to be separated. When Old Sect Master Pei talked about how his senior sister passed away, he was listening with tears in his eyes. He was so sad that he couldn't even eat dinner.
Just like now, I can't swallow the food, and I don't know the taste of the food.
But the body is still injured. Only by eating well and sleeping well can we regain our strength as soon as possible.
In order not to be a burden to the little senior sister, he forced himself to eat.
Suddenly, Zhili Kuaizi paused and seemed to think of something.
He raised his head and looked at the maids standing inside the door: "It was you who came to deliver things just now, right?"
Several servants were stunned for a moment, and one of them said: "That's right..."
"Look carefully at the people on the left and right," Zhili said, "has anyone left? Are you sure it was the five of you who came just now?"
The servants looked at each other and nodded hesitantly.
"About this burden," Zhili pointed toward the window sill, "you are not allowed to reveal even a word to the outside world."
The servants looked at the bundle and turned a little pale when they thought of the severed fingers.
"Don't tell me, don't you hear me! Otherwise, I'll give you some clues, I'm very fierce!" Zhili used such a fierce tone for the first time.
The servants and women hurriedly responded and promised not to say anything.
Zhili Jiwan felt a little guilty. Others took good care of him, brought food and hot water, and yet he threatened them.
But there is no way. This baggage left here is definitely for the little senior sister. He will put it away now and don't let the little senior sister know about it, so as not to disturb the little senior sister's mind.

The next day, the sky was obscured by dark clouds coming from the east, and there was no sunlight.
Within an hour, the wind became stronger and stronger, and at the same time, heavy rain fell from the sky, and thunder thundered across thousands of miles of mountains and rivers.
Due to terrain reasons, once it rains in Hengxiang, the tide in Dianqingjiang River will rise, and the violent water will rush to Hengxiang Mansion in the southeast, and then run further east along the large and small rivers in Hengxiang Mansion.
There was a heavy rain a few days ago, so Xia Zhaoyi chased the group of coffin bearers all the way north, down Sanbai Mountain, and to Zhaishuiling.
Today, thunder struck again, white as a blade, sweeping across the world. She stood in a hole on the south bank of the Dianqing River, looking at the river and ships in the distance.
The boat she and Shen Lie parked there was the Fang family's boat. It was very sturdy and had three floors.
They originally wanted to take the original route back to the Taolin Bamboo Garden of the Jin brothers, but they saw from a distance that the Qianren cliff was intercepted by a huge boulder dropped from the sky. It was not a natural boulder. The width of the long road that was sunk into the cliff and stuck on the cliff was exactly the same, and it looked like an artificial creation.
We get an inverted character for "concave".
Since this road was blocked, they had no choice but to change paths. By the way, Xia Zhaoyi and Shen Lie went to the basement.
Now, the heavy rain has stirred up moisture all over the sky and the ground, and the damp and cold air has drifted in. Although it is sticky, it makes the smell in the cave much better.
Xia Zhaoyi listened to the movement behind him and wondered whether it was okay or not, so he asked: "What's wrong?"
"Wait a moment." Shen Lie replied.
In addition to Shen Lie, there were also two slaves of the Fang family whom they kidnapped when they seized the ship, and Guo Yunzhe, who they brought out from the basement.
The two slaves were not very loyal to each other, so they were allowed to do things without too much intimidation.
After Shen Lie said the word "wait a moment", a slave suddenly couldn't bear it anymore and turned to the side to vomit.
Afraid of being scolded, the slave hurriedly said: "I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it! Ugh!"
Shen Lie looked at him with a frown, turning around and retching again, but he had no intention of scolding him.
Another slave was so irritated by the stench that his eyes filled with tears.
Forget it stinks, why is it still carrying a soaring and pungent smell?
The savage's body was all caked up, and the fabric of his clothes was stuck to his hair, so he had to tear it off with force.
But the harder you push, the more painful it will be. Not only will the opponent hit you randomly, but you will also bite him with your mouth.
Even though the handsome young man had completely suppressed him as he said before, the two slaves were still afraid.
Who was this person fished out of a cesspit? This is...
The heavy rain outside the cave became heavier and heavier, and the noise in the cave became louder and louder.
Suddenly, like a thunder god striking the world, there were two loud bangs, which made the two slaves scream in fright. The savage was also frightened, and started chirping and roaring.
Compared to his previous slurred speech, this coherent sentence made Xia Zhaoyi and Shen Lie shudder at the same time.
Xia Zhaoyi tilted his head slightly and said, "His accent..."
Shen Lie said: "Drunk deer accent."
"Can you see his face clearly?" Xia Zhaoyi asked.
"Um."
"Then, have you seen him before, or have you seen anyone with similar features to his?"
Shen Lie took a closer look at Guo Yunzhe's appearance. Because he had not been exposed to the sun for a long time, his face was almost pale. His face was so thin that he was out of shape, his cheeks were sunken into pits, his skin was sagging, but there were not many wrinkles. Because the bones on his face were heavier, the sagging
The skin can barely hang on, and the texture can still be seen as somewhat handsome.
Moreover, although he has lost his normal sense and has no ability to express or listen, his eyes are not dull at all and are very bright. There is no fatigue on his face, and there is no lifelessness that has been worn away by time.
Speaking of facial features similar to his, Shen Lie really thought of a person and said in a deep voice: "He looks a bit like my great-uncle and grandfather, Guo Ning."
"He?" Xia Zhaoyi thought for a moment and said, "Second Master Guo Ning Guo seems to have passed away ten years ago."
"Well, ten whole years."
"How many heirs does he have?"
"I saw all these twelve people, five sons and seven daughters, at his funeral," Shen Lie said.
After saying that, Shen Lie paused for a moment and then said: "By the way, not only that, he has an illegitimate wife and has always said that he has at least five illegitimate children."
Xia Zhaoyi raised his eyebrows and suddenly smiled: "What a coincidence, I am also an illegitimate daughter."
"..."
Shen Lie wanted to say, you are not.
