Chapter 20: Night III
I sheathed my sword and said sincerely, "Thank you." ”
"Well, it's flashy, it's a thing at best." She put the lamp up again: "Let's go." If the dates turn around and see that we are gone, they may be shocked. ”
"She doesn't know this either?"
"I don't know, I don't usually come in, there's nothing here, grandpa said that you can store some important things here, and I don't have anything to save, it used to be the picture you painted for me, and I put it here."
As soon as we entered, the secret door was closed again, and she handed the light to me to hold, and reached for the mechanism herself.
As a result, she pulled it twice, but the mechanism did not move.
"Huh, what's going on?"
Lei Fang used his strength, but the stone ball was still motionless.
Strange, is it stuck?
"What's wrong?" I asked, "Doesn't this mechanism open from the inside, but has to be opened from the outside?" ”
I know some of them do, but I'm afraid not.
Lei Fang really said, "No, it's not the first time I've come in...... The first few times it was fine, why can't it be opened now? ”
She turned left and right so anxious that she was sweating, and she tossed for a while. I took a closer look at the lamp, the stone ball was the size of a fist, I don't know how many years this dark room has been built, it can't be that the mechanism in it is rusty, right? But when I came in, it was fine.
"Why don't I try?"
"No, I can do it!" Lei Fang's little face turned red, and he pulled and turned, and the stone ball just didn't move.
"Take a break, don't worry." I'm not anxious, but I think it's cold here, and we both wear little clothes, so I'm afraid I'll get frostbite if we stay for a while.
"Oh, I remembered......" Lei Fang smiled at me and said embarrassedly, "I forgot to press it first and then turn ......"
This girl! I was angry and funny, and there were words in her mouth: "Press three times, two left, four right, ......"
Finally, I heard a click, and the secret door slowly slid open to the side.
I breathed a sigh of relief, Lei Fang touched his head, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't be angry." I haven't been in for a few days...... Well, I drank too much yesterday and my brain was not good, so I forgot the steps to open the door. ”
Lei Fang was careful, probably felt that he couldn't hold his face, and wanted to regain some prestige, and waved his fist at me as if demonstrating: "Don't tell others, otherwise I can settle accounts with you." ”
"What are you settling accounts with me?" I walked around her amusedly: "Three thousand dollars made one thousand seven hundred and forty-two, how many more?" ”
Lei Fang was dumbfounded, raised his hand to look at his fingers, bent and stretched out at all, and became angry: "What are you?" Bullying me won't make money! ”
"Didn't you say you wanted to settle accounts with me? Then you can count it. ”
Lei Fangge gritted her teeth, and she looked like she was biting my flesh.
It was still dark outside, so I put down the lamp in my hand. Lei Fang glared at me, looking like a cat with its tail stepped on. It's a pity that it didn't last long, and I couldn't help it first, and laughed.
"What a ghost you girl." Lei Fang put on his clothes, put on his shoes again, and called outside: "Dates, fetch water." ”
Jujube is the most clever and diligent, but Lei Fang shouted this, but he didn't listen to her.
"Where are the people?"
Lei Fang lifted the curtain and glanced out, a little puzzled: "Did you go to the kitchen?" ”
I sat aside and said casually: "Maybe they can't find us, so they are in a hurry to go out to find someone to move the rescuers." ”
Lei Fang thought so, nodded and said, "Very much." Eighty percent of them are looking for someone. It doesn't matter, I'm definitely coming back soon. Alas, her sister also followed, but like me, I don't know when we will see each other again. ”
"Well, I saw that her eyes were still red just now, and she cried again at night."
"I miss my sister too...... Nankui is so far away, and she doesn't know any people over there, how can she live this day......"
I didn't know how to comfort her, so I could only gently pat her on the back a few times. Lei Fang raised his head and smiled at me, but I could barely see how hard the smile was.
After waiting for a while, Lei Fang said strangely, "Why haven't the dates come back yet?" ”
I played with the incense sword, smiled and said, "If she doesn't come back, you can be a girl for me, and serve me with water to wash my face." ”
Lei Fang pounced on me, I was most afraid of itching, her hand had not yet touched, I already felt that the strength in my body had run more than half, and I fell on the bed and rolled back and forth to dodge.
"Small! Still hiding! It's not too big or too small...... Hmph, do you dare to talk nonsense? ”
"Hahaha, don't dare...... Good sister, stop it......"
I laughed breathlessly, Lei Fang pressed me triumphantly, raised his eyebrows and asked: "I can't hold others, I can't even treat you girl, then I'm also surprised!" Go, the dates are not there, you bring me a basin of water, sister, I want to wash my face and make up. ”
As soon as she let go, I hurriedly sat down to the side and straightened my messy hair.
"Okay, where's the pot? I'll bring you water. ”
Lei Fang's face was flushed, and he pointed at the back of the screen with pride.
I went over and took the copper basin and opened the door to scoop up the water. Lei Fang also has a small tea stove at the back of this courtyard, which is not extinguished day and night. There is also a bucket of water by the tea stove that was brought the day before, pour some hot water, and then mix some cold water, and the two of us wash our faces together, which is also very convenient.
I pushed open the door of the small tea room, and saw Zaozi sitting in front of the tea stove with her head down, eighty percent of her wanted to come over to make tea for us, no wonder she didn't hear Lei Fang call her just now.
"Dates, is the water boiling?"
The dates didn't respond, and eighty percent fell asleep again.
I put down the copper basin and gave her a gentle push.
The dates fell to the ground like a broken bag, silently.
Startled, I reached out and pulled her head over a bit.
Jujube's face was blue and black - the girl who was smiling and gentle and considerate just now had turned into a corpse.
Poison! She's been poisoned!
I leaned against the door frame and took a few breaths, then looked back again.
Jujube lay there quietly, she didn't seem to have any signs of pain, as if she had been poisoned in an instant, and she didn't even have time to be frightened and struggled.
What a poisonous ......
How did she get poisoned?
What did you eat? What did you drink? Or did you touch something?
Lei Fang's voice seemed to sound far away: "Xiao Sheng, Xiao Sheng? Hurry up! ”
I heard myself reply: "Lei Fang, you, come here!" ”
The voice was hoarse and unpleasant, still trembling, so strange that I couldn't believe it was me.
I heard footsteps, getting closer and closer, Lei Fang really walked over, his hair was not combed yet, yawned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
I stiffly stepped back to get out of the way so she could see through the door.
It was very quiet, and there were no birds and insects, and no one was silent...... The whole Zhou family was quiet, lifeless, and couldn't hear anything.
