From afternoon to evening, when the sky was dark, I kept squatting outside the hotel, smoking a cigarette and looking at the various passers-by around me.
Xiaoxuan came over and sat down next to me and said, "Yunfeng, what are you guys doing? There was an uninvited guest on the mountain that night. Do you remember?"
"Remember, you were talking about the person who stole the fruit? It was too dark at the time, and from dozens of meters away, I couldn't even tell whether the person was a man or a woman."
Xiaoxuan frowned: "I didn't see it clearly, but I felt that it was a man. Do you think it was him who sent the letter to threaten us?"
I thought for a while, frowned and said: "The letter is talking about us killing the old bachelor, and the person who stole the fruit broke into our tomb robbing scene. These are two different things. If it is that person, there is no need for him to take the risk in front of us."
Appearing will do no harm whatsoever."
After chatting for a few minutes, Xiaoxuan gritted her teeth and said, "If I knew who was blackmailing us, I would cut off his head and let him hold it in his own hands."
I put my arms around Xiaoxuan's shoulders and pulled her into my arms. I smiled and said, "Girls should be gentler. Don't always talk about killing people and beheading them. It's so fucking scary. You don't have to worry. I'm here for everything."
He's also at the head."
Suddenly, my cell phone rang, I glanced at it and quickly hung up.
"Why didn't you answer? Who is the little rich woman?"
Xiaoxuan saw the name on the caller ID. There were too many calls on my mobile phone, and I often distinguished them by nicknames for convenience, so I marked Xia Shuishui as Xiao Fu Po.
"No one, just an ordinary friend."
Unexpectedly, Xia Shuishui called again soon.
This time Xiaoxuan rushed over and pressed the answer button, signaling for me to speak.
Before I opened my mouth, the other person said, "Xiang Yunfeng, are you free tonight? Why don't you come to my house? I'm very scared."
"Hello? Hello? The signal is not good. I can't hear you clearly here. Hello?"
Xiaoxuan pinched the flesh on my waist and twisted it hard! It hurt so hard that I grimaced.
Xia Shuishui obviously didn't know what was going on here, so I heard her say on the other end of the phone: "Come quickly, my dad said he wants to see you."
"Your dad wants to see me? Why is he meeting me?" I asked.
"I don't know either. I guess my dad wants to talk to you about my situation. After all, you also know that my situation is not just a day or two."
This didn't sound right to me, and I was afraid that it would get darker and darker, so I just said a few words and gave up.
At this time, I heard Xiaoxuan say angrily: "Hey, Brother Xiang, it seems that you have done a lot of bad things without telling me? It's so late at night, and they let you go home? You also need to meet with your parents to discuss the situation.
, what’s the situation? Did you fail to take safety measures and accidentally make someone’s belly bigger?”
"Nonsense! Nonsense!"
""She and I are just ordinary friends of the opposite sex. The big fish Dou Sprout caught last time was sold to her. It's not like you don't know this."
"Now that I'm telling you, I, Xiang Yunfeng, am a martial arts practitioner. I work openly and aboveboard. If I say I'm not doing it, I'm not doing it. I never do one thing on the surface and hide another behind the scenes."
Xiaoxuan said disdainfully: "Tch, you can say whatever you want at any time. I can't control you anyway, and you won't listen to anything I say."
At around ten o'clock in the evening, I took a taxi to the door of Xia Shuishui's large villa as requested.
Xia Shuishui was waiting for me at the door. She was dressed more casually at night, wearing high-end and expensive plush pajamas, and a pair of rabbit wool slippers. She didn't even wear socks, but her face didn't look good.
There is no blood color on my eyes, maybe because I removed my makeup, and I can still see some dark circles under my eyes.
The furniture in her home is pure Chinese retro style, but the magnificent crystal chandeliers and solid wood staircases on the roof are also in European style, so her home gives people a feeling of a combination of Chinese and Western styles with a sense of grandeur.
She lives in a room on the left side of the third floor. The cabin is not big and the things are a little messy. The furnishings look like a lady’s boudoir. She also has a Persian cat. As soon as she enters the room, she picks up the cat.
Sitting on the bed.
"Why are you looking for me so late? Why does your dad want to see me? He probably doesn't know me."
Xia Shuishui held the cat in her arms and said with a wry smile: "Ever since I was young, he knows exactly what I do every time I go out, who I meet, who I eat with, and who I make friends with."
I frowned, thinking that this would be a bit too broad. Then I would have no privacy at all in my life.
Xia Shuishui sniffed: "I suffered from depression two years ago. At that time, I always felt that living in this world was meaningless. I always thought, will people go to another world to live after they die?
Maybe that world is very interesting."
I smiled and said: "You have experienced too little in society. Is life interesting? You have to experience it to be qualified to say this. Have you tasted all the different aspects of life, the ups and downs?"
She said: "I'm one year older than you, and you sound like you've experienced a lot more than me."
"You're right, I've experienced much more than you. I've been to hundreds of places, down to the Gobi Desert, up to the plateau snow-capped mountains. I've seen all kinds of good people and bad people, and I've been around society.
You were still wiping the blackboard at school at that time."
"Ah? Didn't you say you were a fish seller?"
"Selling fish is just a temporary business, I also have many other livelihoods."
"Hello? Do you have a cigarette?"
I was stunned, then nodded and said yes.
She whispered: "My dad has gone out to do errands. It will probably take at least an hour before he comes back. Give me a cigarette."
I took it out and gave it to her.
"Where's the fire?"
She lit the cigarette and held it between her hands. She coughed after taking one puff.
I said if you don't know how to smoke, don't smoke. It's not a good thing.
She rolled around on the bed holding the cat, then quickly got up and took the pillow away for me to see.
I took a look and saw seven copper coins under her pillow, with red threads threaded through them to look like the Big Dipper.
"You see, I tried the method you told me that day, and it really worked. Although I still press on the bed sometimes, the frequency is much less than before."
I said: "The Big Dipper is a basic formation in Feng Shui. Although this arrangement is not very effective, it has a certain effect in eliminating bad magnetic fields. However, I have looked at your house and it seems there is no problem."
Xia Shuishui said anxiously: "No! There must be something wrong! Let me tell you! This bungalow in our house was built by my parents when they were married. When I was a child, my old housekeeper told me that when the foundation was being laid, the ground was dug.
A dead person's bones were found, and it is said that they were civilians killed when the Japanese bombed Chun'an County."
"Really? It's so evil."
"It's absolutely true! Why did I lie to you!"
Xia Shuishui looked around, her eyes were frightened and she said: "The man I always dreamed about when I was lying in bed was wearing the old cotton clothes from a few decades ago, so I suspect that he is the soul of the man who was killed by the Japs.
, my mother’s death was related to it, and now that I have grown up, it wants to harm me again.”
