Chapter 114 Picking Flowers, Xiao Jiu in the rivers and lakes
I didn't expect it to be like this......"
Zhu Fan groaned, and suddenly there was a feeling of goosebumps popping out.
Xiao Jiu was no better, and when he remembered what he had seen at the autopsy, he felt a chill in his back.
"So far, I have never seen such a murder method, turning bones into ashes, as if the skin of those three people was skinned alive, complicated, in this way, do you think it could be done by people?"
Turning his head, there was no longer the indifference in the eyes of the fox.
Zhu Fan's heart was also tight, and he didn't say anything to his eyes, but his meaning was obvious.
The person who beat the watch passed by below, and also broke the silence between the two, Zhu Fan pursed his lips and said, "Brother Xiao, it seems that you really have to be careful." ”
Monsters are not monsters, and it is impossible to conclude for the time being.
But if it was really a monster, she couldn't completely disbelieve it, after all, she had seen such monsters, and what happened to her was enough to subvert her previous perception of things in this world.
Xiao Jiu naturally didn't know what was happening to her, nodded solemnly and then let go of his brows, and returned to the appearance of the big shopkeeper Xiao in the daytime.
"But then again, you know Chen Qing, don't you?"
Xiao Jiu seemed to be smiling, and a pair of fox eyes seemed to see through the person in front of him.
Zhu Fan's heart tightened subconsciously, and the light in his eyes flickered for a moment, "What does Brother Xiao mean by this, didn't he say that it was probably not artificial, could it be that he still doubts me?" ”
She clearly didn't leave any clues.
Xiao Jiu chuckled when he heard this, sighed lightly and said, "Do you know? Yun Boy asked me about a person a few days ago, the name of this person...... It's called Chen Qing. ”
The last four words, Xiao Jiu said to Zhu Fan's eyes, as if he could conclude that the person who asked Yun Zhe to find someone was the person in front of him.
Zhu Fan squeezed the hand on his knee and didn't look away, "Do you think I asked Brother Yun to inquire?" ”
Xiao Jiu chuckled, but did not answer her question directly, "After you went upstairs yesterday, Chen Qing stopped at the door of your room. ”
"Gurgle", Zhu Fan's heart was faintly tight, but he didn't show the slightest expression on his face, but raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Dare you go upstairs?" ”
Xiao Jiu saw that he had already talked to this extent, and this little girl was still sloppy with him, so he pulled the corners of his mouth and said, "If I heard it correctly at the time, Chen Qing's sentence 'You are here' should have been said to you, right?" ”
Soon after the little girl went upstairs, he went upstairs at the request of a guest to hand over something, but he didn't want to see the three masters and apprentices parked in front of the door of the No. 1 room in Tianzi, as if they were talking to someone.
It wasn't until he reacted that he realized that the little girl was not sleepy and wanted to sleep at all, but happened to see Chen Qing's master and apprentice come in at that moment, so she ran in such a hurry.
When I met again tonight, it was enough to see that his thoughts at that time were correct, this girl did know Chen Qing and the others.
Zhu Fan heard that since he said so, she didn't expect to be confused, she knew that Xiao Jiu was not an ordinary person, she didn't plan to continue to be sloppy, but she didn't plan to follow his will without knowing the identity of the other party.
So she didn't answer Xiao Jiu's words, she only hooked her lips and smiled, without hiding the suspicion in her eyes, "Seeing that Brother Xiao is also a scholar, don't you know that you should report your family before asking the other party?" How can others believe you? ”
Hearing this, Xiao Jiu felt very interesting, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "You say, you believe it?" Don't you think I'm lying? ”
Zhu Fan was stunned, but then smiled, "You say, I naturally believe it, after all, I don't know anything about you, how can I tell if what you say is true or false?" ”
As soon as he said this, Xiao Jiu was stunned, and after a while, he lowered his voice and hugged his stomach and laughed "snort", "You...... You girl, it's too interesting, ...... It's much more interesting than your big brother Yun, hahahaha......"
A man who is almost thirty years old, holding his stomach and almost rolling around there with a smile, Zhu Fan felt that the person in front of him was fourteen years older than her, and it was clear that he should be younger than her.
Thinking of this, Zhu Fan didn't urge him, just watched him laugh.
No one cooperated, Xiao Jiu finally realized that he was a little out of shape, and coughed lightly to cover up Fang Cai's faux pas, but he still couldn't help but hold back a smile in his eyes.
Zhu Fan rolled his eyes at him, and then listened to him speak.
Xiao Jiu said that this inn is indeed their ancestral heirloom, but because he didn't like to be controlled since he was a child, he sneaked out of the house to worship a master to learn kung fu despite his father's control when he was a teenager.
The master is not a decent person, and he is also a playful person, so over time he has become what people call a flower thief.
But in fact, he and his master have never even touched the fingers of the girl's house, in a word, it is "robbing the rich and helping the poor".
What man didn't have a dream of being a hero when he was a child, and Xiao Jiu was naturally no exception.
When you get those ill-gotten gains out of someone else's house, you do something in the boudoir of that young lady for fun, or take out something to prove that you have been there, and publicize the empty hat on your head, which feels like you are famous.
Calling him a flower thief, thinking of how to let the government arrest him, are all those guys who are good-looking, and those who have received favors call him a hero, and he can enjoy the pleasure of being a hero because of this.
So he was in office for ten years, and it wasn't until four years ago that his parents were seriously ill and returned to this inn to take over the ancestral inn.
After speaking, Xiao Jiu sighed, "Wash your hands in the golden basin, you can't help yourself......"
Although the reputation of the flower thief is not very good, but at least he is free, it is better than now that he either dials the abacus or looks at the account book every day, and when he looks at the account book, he has to dial the abacus, and his hands are almost calloused.
It was also Zhu Fan who was also such an informal person, so after listening to Xiao Jiu's story, not only did he not feel fear or ridicule because of this, but he also sighed with Xiao Jiu and looked at him almost with sympathy.
"It's very unpleasant, I don't like my old man to control me, but it's a pity that I don't have as much courage as Brother Xiao, so I just said to leave, but now it's okay, I don't want to leave, and they can't control me."
Xiao Jiu was surprised when he heard it, "Since I can't control you, why don't you leave?" ”
After asking, as if he remembered something, he leaned over and asked with a smile, "Is it because of the person you like?" ”
Zhu Fan was taken aback and looked at him in amazement, "How do you know?" ”
Xiao Jiu was stunned by her straightforward appearance, and after coming back to her senses, she couldn't cry or laugh, "You girl, you can really say whatever you want, don't hide it at all, that person is so good, even if you lose your freedom, you have to stay by his side?" ”
Although he knew that the average man in the village would not be much better, at most he was a scholar, but there was a saying that did not go so far: what a lover sees is naturally different from what an outsider sees.
It's just that he didn't expect that someone like this little girl would trap himself there because of a man, he was really ...... Some of them want to meet this person.
Zhu Fan didn't know what Xiao Jiu was thinking, but she just didn't want people to misunderstand the person in her heart, so she frowned and said: "He's really good, he looks good to me and reads well, the key is that he is the one I don't marry, I don't stay by his side, who am I staying by?" ”
As if it should be, Zhu Fan has closely linked her future with that person, and since she confessed her heart, she has never thought about what it will be like without him.
Xiao Jiu originally asked this with a bit of a joke, but he didn't expect the little girl to answer his words so seriously, and looking at the look in those big eyes, it definitely didn't look like she was joking.
It made Xiao Jiu uncomfortable, touched his nose and said: "The world is sad, it is a little girl like you, and you are not afraid of ......."
I'm not afraid of being deceived.
Of course, he won't say the next half of the words, after all, he still disdains Xiao Jiu to say bad things about his sweetheart in front of the little girl who is just starting to fall in love.
What's more, the girl in front of him, he dared to guarantee that if he really said that the person was not, she would definitely not just forget it.
Just as he was thinking, he saw the person next to him stand up.
"Okay, Brother Xiao," Zhu Fan got up, stood on the roof and looked around, and then said: "It's not early, let's rest early, since I haven't found anything and the situation is unknown, it is equivalent to the enemy in the dark and I am in the light, and we are inconvenient to do anything, let's wait for tomorrow to see what the mayor says." ”
Xiao Jiu was surprised by her calm bearing at such a young age, although her stomach was still full of questions, she still pressed it down, and also got up, "That's right, why don't you go back to your own room to sleep?" ”
What he meant was that since there was nothing to do alone, it was safer for everyone to stay together.
Zhu Fan glanced at him, but he smiled and nodded, Xiao Jiu shrugged helplessly, "Okay, I'll send you down." ”
When Zhu Fan heard this, his eyes lit up again, Xiao Jiu knew that she was excited because she was going to "fly" again, and she felt that Yun Xiaozi was really interesting.
Back in the house, Zhu Fan almost fell asleep, and he was not affected by the monster incident in the slightest.
But she didn't know that after she fell into a dream, the man who was already so angry that his eyes were red quietly entered, standing by the bed and looking at her with peach blossom eyes that should have been amorous but now cold.
The fox also raised his hand, and a light red light wrapped the little body on the bed, and the next moment the little girl's head was almost invisibly deviated, falling into a deeper sleep.
