Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Secret of Five Years Ago
I didn't expect Xiu Ling, who usually looks introverted and gentle, to be so spicy, and she didn't have any defense, and her hands and neck were suddenly scratched with several blood marks.
The doctor reacted quickly, and immediately grabbed Xiuling, Lin Qiaoer also came to help, and finally separated us, but my unlucky face was still hit in the chaos, and the blood was scraped by the nails, and the wound extended from the eyelid to the jaw, and it hurt hotly, if I hadn't closed my eyes in time at the critical moment, maybe I would have been blind.
Even though she had been hugged by the doctor, Xiuling was still staring at me with red eyes, her eyes were full of murderous intent, as if as soon as the doctor let go, she would immediately pounce on me again and bite me to death.
"Holy, are you crazy?" I was almost blinded inexplicably, and I was really angry, and I couldn't care about foul language anymore, if it wasn't for Lin Qiao'er to stop me, I might have already pumped my big mouth.
In order to avoid further conflicts, Lin Qiao'er and the Taoist priest pressed me to the edge of the bed and sat down, while Xiuling was pulled by the doctor to sit down on the stool on the other side, and the two of us stared at each other at a distance of a few meters.
The strange atmosphere lasted for more than ten minutes, until our emotions stabilized, Lin Qiao'er brought me ointment to rub the medicine, and the doctor asked Xiuling in a gentle tone Why did she attack me?
At this time, although Xiuling had calmed down, when the doctor mentioned this matter again, anger appeared on her face again, pointing to the picture that I threw aside, and asked me how I got this picture, and the angry words revealed some sadness.
I noticed something unusual, and the fire had almost gone away, and I was a little embarrassed to see a big man and a little girl, so I decided not to bother with her about what had just happened.
Since I had made up my mind not to bother with her, there was no need to hide the letter, and I wanted to find out the reason for it, so I told her that it had been sent to me by someone else.
What I didn't expect was that Xiu Ling didn't believe my words at all, and she was even more angry, and yelled at me with red eyes: "Liar, you liar, how can Aunt Su Jin give it to you, you liar, liar, ......"
At this moment, I really have 10,000 grass and mud horses galloping in my heart, who the hell am I messing with?
"Xiuling, don't get excited, he didn't lie to you, it was my sister who went with him when I took this letter, it's true."
"I can also testify that I opened the letter at the time."
Xiu Ling was emotional, the doctor and Lin Qiao'er hurriedly stood up to testify for me, Xiu Ling couldn't believe Lin Qiao'er, but she had no resistance to the doctor's words, looked at me suspiciously, and then asked me to show her something.
I was angry in my heart, holding my hands and pretending not to hear, ignoring her, but I didn't think that the Taoist priest had become a traitor, so I sent all the pictures and envelopes over. I greeted the Taoist ancestor in my heart, but since I had already given it to her, I didn't say anything more.
After Xiu Ling took the envelope and the picture, she first looked at the words on the envelope, and suddenly became excited, her hand holding the letter trembled a little, and she muttered to herself: "That's right, this is Aunt Su Jin's handwriting, is it really sent by Aunt Su Jin?" ”
While muttering, Xiu Ling continued to look at the strange picture with a hint of doubt, and after only one glance, Xiu Ling fell silent and did not squeak again. She silently stuffed the picture into the envelope, handed it back to the Taoist priest, and in everyone's astonished eyes, she walked up to me and bent down to apologize to me for the first time.
"I'm sorry, I blamed you, please forgive me!"
Xiu Ling didn't straighten up when she bowed, I knew this was her way of apologizing, and if I didn't accept her apology, she wouldn't stand upright.
What a stubborn little girl, I sighed in my heart.
In fact, I didn't plan to worry about her, and naturally I wouldn't be embarrassed at this time, so I was busy helping her and letting her get up quickly, but I didn't think I would do it, I sighed again, and said to her that I have forgiven you, you hurry up, just tell us what is going on.
She got up at this time, as if she saw the scratch on my face, Xiu Ling was a little reluctant, and found some herbal powder for the treatment of trauma from the mountain people, and helped Lin Qiao'er put it on me, and then said sorry.
I knew that this second sorry was for her scratching me, and I couldn't laugh or cry for a while, and I didn't answer the question, asking her what stimulation she had just received, and why she suddenly became so excited?
Xiu Ling didn't hide it, she told us that it was all because of that picture, maybe because of guilt, and in the following time, she told us something that she and Lao Gui had hidden before.
I still remember the night I just woke up, when everyone was talking around the bonfire, Lao Gui talked about the past about Su Jin that happened five years ago.
What Lao Gui told us at the time was that Su Jin and his party disappeared after entering the mountain, and never appeared again, in fact, this was completely Lao Gui's lie, and there were things that almost killed Xiu Ling in the water hyacinth, and Lao Gui also hid a lot.
In fact, when I heard Lao Gui say this, I was a little skeptical, but I didn't expect this matter to be so complicated.
It turned out that Su Jin's situation when she came to Toast was not as abrupt as Lao Gui said, Su Jin and Lao Gui had actually known each other very early.
Lao Gui first met Su Jin when he sent Xiuling to school in Guazhou Town, when Su Jin's identity was a geological surveyor, and he was about to enter Toast Tai by the official family, and met Lao Gui halfway, and somehow hired Lao Gui as their guide.
For most of the next half year, the team led by Su Jin lived in Lao Gui's house, plunged into the mountains during the day, locked in the room at night and didn't know what to do, and sometimes they were in the mountains for several days in a row, so that Lao Gui thought that something had happened to them, and they gathered people everywhere to prepare for search and rescue.
Later, Su Jin told Lao Gui that they were doing a geological exploration mission in Toast Tai and needed to stay in the mountains for a long time, so Lao Gui did not have to worry. After that, Su Jin's group stayed in the mountains for a longer time, but since they had already said hello, Lao Gui didn't doubt it anymore.
This kind of life lasted for almost half a year, Su Jin would pay Lao Gui a large sum of money for food and accommodation every month, which was worth the income of Lao Gui's part-time job for most of the year, so Lao Gui stayed at home that year, cooking every day, if the group came back, just serve them food, if they didn't come back, the money would be collected anyway, and it would not be delayed.
Although life is moist, it can't stand up for a long time, and other people's eyes are red, and gossip begins to spread.
