0289 [I guess 200 million]
I didn't wait for Li Xuemei to finish speaking, so I opened my mouth to answer her question! After speaking, I continued: "If it was a ghost, I would have discovered the existence of yin qi a long time ago, but there is no particularly obvious yin qi in your community, or even in the corridor, which means that there are no ghosts in it!" ”
"What's that? Why did Sister Wang say she saw that thing? Li Xuemei continued to ask me.
I shook my head and said, "I don't know!" ”
"Alright, let's go back first!"
That night, when I fell asleep, I was deliberately cautious, but the footsteps outside the community did not come out again, and there was no outside the community, and the corridor was naturally gone.
Early the next morning, Wu Fatzi and Li Xuemei's eyes were very red, and they looked like they hadn't slept much last night.
But I didn't ask, the most important thing today is to find Master Zhao in the engraving shop.
When I went out, I deliberately brought the hundred-door robe that Zhu Laoqi gave me! Master Zhao is not easy to speak, if he doesn't come up with some hard goods, maybe he won't say anything more to me. Of course, this is my retreat, if he is very cooperative, then this hundred robes are a backup.
At half-past eight we arrived at the carving shop, but the door had not yet opened, so we had to wait at the door.
It wasn't until half past nine that the door opened, and it was the girl who opened the door, her eyes were red, and she knew at a glance that she hadn't slept well last night.
Yesterday I told her that the place where I found the strange man was Riverside Road, and she must have gone there to keep watch all night. When I opened the door and saw us, a trace of anger immediately added to my tired face! The little face was cold, his eyebrows were wrinkled, and the unhappiness of the whole person was all revealed.
She ignored us, just snorted, turned and walked inside!
"Hey, what's the attitude? This girl ......," Fat Wu said speechlessly.
I ignored him and walked straight into the store, where the girl was wiping the counter in the store, deliberately not looking at me, pretending not to see us coming in. I looked at her puffing and asked, "What's wrong?" Didn't you wait for that monster to come out last night? ”
The girl snorted and said, "Knowingly ask!" ”
I smiled and said, "Don't worry! With me here, your grandfather won't blame you. ”
"You?" She looked me up and down, then said with a look of contempt, "Who do you think you are?" It's one thing for my grandfather to ignore you, don't think too highly of yourself, and when my grandfather doesn't buy your account, you will know how embarrassing what you say now. I'm ready for a showdown anyway! It's a big deal to be beaten to death by my grandfather, anyway, I was raised by her, and it is reasonable to die at his hands. ”
Listening to the girl's desperate words, I shook my head helplessly!
We waited in the store for a while, and at eleven o'clock an old man came in through the door.
The old man was dressed in blue homespun clothes, holding a dry tobacco in his hand, and was smoking it.
He looked like he was in his seventies, with a hat on his head, wrinkles and furrows all over his cheeks, and a pair of eyes, though small, but as sharp as a hunting eagle. Although he was a little hunchbacked, he walked majestically and very toughly.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a stranger in the house, he stood at the door and looked at it for a while, and then said coldly: "Mingyan, a guest has come in, don't you see?" ”
The girl was startled when she heard this, and quickly turned her head to look at the old man, and then shouted with a surprised face: "Grandpa! ”
Sure enough, he is Master Zhao, he smokes a dry tobacco board and has a face on his face, looking very stern, which is really scary!
"What's wrong? Didn't finish the statue? Master Zhao asked calmly, as if he had already guessed this ending.
The girl pursed her lips, shook her head and said, "No! ”
"What's that?"
The girl suddenly fell to her knees, she looked at the old man with an admittedly face and said, "Grandpa, I'm sorry, I have failed your education for so many years, I have failed your expectations, I know that I am not qualified to ask for your forgiveness!" I...... I...... I'm damned. ”
The old man took the pipe off his mouth, stared at the girl for a few seconds, and asked in a cold voice, "What did you do?" ”
The girl choked up and said, "I...... I...... I carved wooden figures with the same knife that carved animals! ”
After speaking, she was so scared that she didn't dare to look at the old man's eyes, buried her head deeply, and said timidly: "I'm sorry, grandpa, I know that you have said many times to make me careful and serious in doing things, but I am still careless, and I will not succeed enough to fail." It's all my fault, I have nothing to say, you just beat me to death, and I have nothing to say. ”
It seems that the girl knows the old man's temper very well, and she may have thought about this line all night!
The old man's fierce gaze changed violently, and he stepped in two steps and asked, "What did you say?" You carved the statue with the same knife with which you carved the animal? ”
The old man's voice was so loud that it sounded like thunder!
The girl's body trembled, and she nodded timidly and said, "Yes, grandpa, I'm sorry......"
"Mingyan, you kid ......, how can you let me say hello, you...... You...... You're going to me off! I told you thousands of instructions, don't make a mistake with the carving knife, don't make a mistake with the carving knife, you you, you still swear to promise me that you will never make a mistake, now it's okay, I just walked on the front foot, and you immediately made a mess on the back foot, you kid, you have a big disaster! Master Zhao roared angrily, and the girl knelt motionless in front of him, tears already falling quietly.
"Master Zhao!" I stopped the old man, who looked back at me, and then said lightly, "I'm sorry, sir, I'm afraid I won't be able to do business today!" I'm sorry for you......"
He was going to give an eviction order, and then began to clean up his granddaughter, I immediately made a decision, immediately interrupted him categorically, and said: "I didn't come to you to carve it for me, I came to you for the monster of animal heads and human bodies." ”
Hearing this, Master Zhao's pupils were obviously dilated again, and he looked me up and down and asked, "What animal's head, human body?" ”
I got straight to the point and said, "One of them is the mouth of a chicken, the body of a human being, and it makes a sound like a chicken's crow!" The other is the eyes of the cow, the ears, and the human body, I wonder if you know the existence of these two strange people? ”
Actually, I haven't seen these two people, but I've heard of them, but in order to see Master Zhao's reaction, I have to say that.
Sure enough, Master Zhao's pupils were significantly dilated again, he looked at me, the whole person became excited, he looked at me and asked, "Where did you see it?" ”
