"Stop!" came a sharp shout, mixed with many footsteps, but somewhat erratic, as if they were far away and yet very close.
Vaguely, I felt as if someone had carried me down from the balcony. The restraint on my neck was suddenly released, and a large amount of air poured into my chest, causing me to cough violently.
Consciousness gradually returned, and bursts of pain were felt throughout the body and limbs.
My eyes became brighter, and the dazzling light made me frown. When I opened my eyes, I found that I had been carried back to the lobby on the first floor by Xiao Han.
"Are those people okay?" After coughing a few times, I asked Xiao Han: "Are you back? Have you caught up with them?"
"No, they are very cunning!" Xiao Han shook his head slightly, looked at me and said, "Fortunately, I came back quickly, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
"Those people were not possessed by evil spirits at that time!"
I whispered, justifying my embarrassment, but at the same time I felt a little sad and discouraged. I was a psychic, but I was almost killed as a magician and a devil.
"How is the situation now? Are they all okay?" I asked Xiao Han.
"Chen Hu has led people to control those people and is investigating why they attacked you." Xiao Han's face was a little gloomy when he spoke.
I was a little confused, struggled to sit up, looked at him and asked: "Investigation?"
Xiao Han nodded slightly and whispered something in my ear, which immediately shocked me.
"The things here are not just as simple as the evil spirits causing trouble!" Xiao Han said.
Just as he was about to ask more questions, a middle-aged couple came in pushing a dining cart. The dining cart had two floors, filled with lunch boxes, and the aroma of food instantly filled the entire hall.
My stomach rumbled loudly twice.
The couple wore local clothes and looked very friendly and friendly.
"It's time to eat!" the woman said, picked up a lunch box, walked to Professor Zhang, handed it to him and said: "Professor, let's eat something first, you are very hungry!"
Since we rest during the day, this meal can be regarded as breakfast for the day.
Professor Zhang sighed, took the lunch box from the woman's hand, and said "thank you."
Seeing this, other people also walked to the dining car and took the lunch box from the man.
The woman smiled at Professor Zhang, took two more lunch boxes, and walked over to Xiao Han and me.
"Master Xiao Tian, little sister, you should eat something first!" The woman smiled lightly, handed the lunch box to me and Xiao Han, and then asked with some surprise: "What's wrong, little sister? There is blood all over her body.
Injured?"
I lowered my head and saw that my body was stained with blood. Many places in my clothes had been poked with scissors and other objects, and blood was oozing out from some places.
"Oh, those people are disobedient and must go to the second floor to seek death. They have brought you to such an end! I'm afraid they won't be able to enter the mountain tomorrow!" The woman shook her head and sighed.
I took the lunch box from the woman's hand and looked at her. Suddenly I felt that something was wrong with what she said, but I couldn't remember what was wrong for a while.
Xiao Han also took the other lunch box from her hand, smiled and said "thank you", glanced at the man busy next to the dining car, and asked seemingly unintentionally: "You are a couple, right? We are from Jiming Village."
people?"
"Well! Many people in the village have gone to the mountains to touch treasures, but they have moved away because they were afraid. We, my husband and I, have never been there, and we are not afraid. Professor Zhang just happened to come and need guides and help with cooking. We can't make money even if we move out.
Whatever money is left, I will keep it and earn some money for my son to find a wife in the future," the woman said.
After a busy afternoon, I was really hungry. While listening to Xiao Han's conversation, I opened the lid of the lunch box.
The aroma is very strong, a dish of shredded pork with green pepper, a dish of fried green vegetables, and a dish of braised potato and chicken nuggets.
After taking a bite, I found that the color, aroma and taste of the food were no worse than those in restaurants outside. It didn't look like it was made by a rural woman.
My heart jolted, and I suddenly realized something was wrong.
Xiao Han and I arrived in the afternoon and were busy drawing talismans on the bullets without coming out. This woman actually recognized Xiao Han and me directly and called Xiao Han "Master Xiao Tianshi".
To take a step back, even if she recognized us from the difference in our clothes, the incident of me going up to the second floor to find someone to cause trouble still just happened. She came from the kitchen to the hall before she had time to talk to anyone. How did she know?
After thinking about it carefully, I suddenly understood what Xiao Han meant by investigation.
"Sister, you cook this food very well. Did you learn it outside?" I asked the woman.
The woman was stunned for a moment, a trace of uneasiness flashed across her face, and she said with a smile, "How can I learn from this? My son likes to study these foods. He taught me when he came home during the holidays!"
I looked at Xiao Han and saw him opening the lid of the lunch box with an inexplicable smile in his eyes. As if he didn't notice the woman's reaction, he started eating.
"It's quite rare for a boy to know how to cook. You're lucky. You should be about the same age as me." I said with a smile, subconsciously wanting to know more about this woman.
"Yes, he is filial. He is twenty-two years old, almost the same age as Professor Zhang's students!" The woman said with gentle eyes, subconsciously looking at the students standing with Professor Zhang.
"Look at me, I was so busy talking to you that I forgot to give lunch boxes to those children. You and Xiao Tianshi eat first, while I go and get busy!" the woman said, turning around and walking towards the dining car.
Looking at the woman's back, I felt a little lost.
Suddenly I felt an unkind gaze falling on me. I turned away from the woman and looked around, only to find that almost everyone was eating with lunch boxes. Even the woman's husband was busy distributing lunch boxes and did not find anything suspicious.
people.
Maybe my nerves are a little over-stretched!
I must have been frightened by Xiao Han's words and suspicion of women. I smiled to myself, lowered my head and started eating.
"There's something wrong with this woman!" Xiao Han's voice suddenly rang in his ears.
I almost choked on a mouthful of rice. Looking at the lunch box in my hand, I was a little afraid to swallow the food in my mouth.
Xiao Han chuckled softly, "There is no problem with the food, so feel free to eat it. You have to be busy after eating. It will be easier to solve if you know where the problem is!"
He has a big heart.
"Since there is a problem, are you sure she won't tamper with the food?" I asked Xiao Han in a low voice.
"She doesn't dare! Chen Hu and his gang have their own cooking class, and they won't seek death!" Xiao Han said firmly.
"Then what is her purpose?" I asked a little strangely.
"What do you think she should be most concerned about?" Xiao Han asked me.
I lowered my head and used chopsticks to flip the food in the lunch box, thinking about every word she said to us.
"What about us going to the tomb tomorrow?" A flash of inspiration struck me, and I looked at Xiao Han and asked.
"It seems you are not stupid!" Xiao Han said, "The students attacking you were not caused by the things in the tomb, but by them!"
"Them?" I asked.
"There are accomplices in this group of people. If something happens to you today, we will definitely not be able to enter the tomb tomorrow!" Xiao Han said. This chapter has been completed!
