【013】Tranquility

The nerves, which were already tense, were again suspended by the sound from under the stairs...... The dark shadows outside the window and the movement from downstairs all attracted Jiang Rong's attention so strangely.

The rustling sound, turning into the sound of small footsteps, was getting closer and closer to her. It was too late to retreat to the room, so I had to stiffen my scalp and remain motionless like a gecko, clinging to the wall. Nervously looking at the bottom of the stairs, slowly reflecting the black shadow on the wall, seeing the black shadow, Jiang Rong's heart suddenly lifted...... Footsteps became clear, and then a pair of cloth shoes appeared...... When I saw the cloth shoes, my heart relaxed a little.

She knew who the owner of the shoes was, wasn't it the kind cook?

Sure enough, the cook with a warm smile on her face came out and looked at Jiang Rong with a posture of looking up. Very gently, like a feather with a pure taste, and an unquestionable affinity, he asked, "Why haven't you slept yet?" ”

"Uh, wake up, get up and go to the bathroom." Jiang Rong's words were hesitant, but she didn't get the trust of the cook. She still smiled, waiting for her to continue. Looking at the other party's unfathomable smile, she blushed and sorted out her flustered emotions. Thinking of the dark shadow he saw just now, he hurriedly added: "Auntie, I saw a strange shadow just now, I don't know who it is?" ”

When the cook heard Jiang Rong's words at first glance, she was inadvertently stunned, and quickly returned to normalcy and said: "Don't be dazzled, there is no one at all." ”

“…… It's true, I really see it, that...... It's from there that it flashes away. Jiang Rong tried to explain, wanting to make the other party believe in herself.

But what she said, the other party looked at her with a completely disregarded look and a smile. After she stopped chattering, she still said to her very softly, "Okay, silly girl, aren't you going to the bathroom?" Let's go, Auntie will accompany you. ”

The other party's ignorance, in Jiang Rong's opinion, is impatient to listen to her own defense. Pursed his lips speechlessly, embarrassed to continue to say something. He nodded, and meekly followed the cook down the stairs step by step.

Jiang Rong entered the bathroom, and the cook turned to leave.

After a while, the cook seemed to have calculated that Jiang Rong had washed her clothes and came to the door in time. There is an incense head that looks like burning incense in his hand, "Girl, you must have been sleeping badly just now, so you can't sleep, I will burn a pillar of soothing incense for you later, so as to ensure that you sleep until dawn." ”

"Really? That's great. Jiang Rong smiled gratefully.

"Well, let's go!"

Jiang Rong followed the cook's instructions, lying quietly on the bed, with an incense burner on the wooden cabinet. A pillar of smoke wafted through the room, with a peculiar smell. She felt that her eyelids were so heavy that she had to close her eyes to feel more comfortable......

She was awakened by a jumble of shouting, and it was Junjun who banged on her door.

"Rong Rong open the door, Rong Rong hurry up."

"What! Ahhh......h opened his still sour eyelids, squinted and looked out the window, the sky was already bright, "Junjun, are you shouting?" Jiang Rong knew that Junjun and Xiaoxi were sleeping in the same room. She grew up and was not used to sleeping in the same room, so the cook deliberately left this modest-sized room for her to rest alone.

When Junjun heard Jiang Rong's shout, he said even more anxiously: "Hurry up Rongrong, Xiaoxi is gone." ”

"What?" Jiang Rong was startled, quickly turned over and got up, and put on her clothes in three or two clicks. Put on his shoes, take two steps at a time, step to the door and open the door, looking at Junjun with an anxious face in surprise, "Didn't you give it to her?" The room where Junjun and Xiaoxi slept was at the other end of the second floor, opposite Jiang Rong's room, and as he spoke, his eyes turned to the open door, and he spoke so loudly that he really didn't see Xiaoxi come out. I realized that something bad must have happened last night.

Xiao Xi disappeared from the old mansion, which was tantamount to a shocking news, which scared several companions at once. Because of last night's fatigue, Xiao Ming was asleep and was awakened by the sound of the cook banging on the door.

Xiao Ming realized the seriousness of the situation after learning that Xiao Xi was missing. This is not only the loss of Han Bin, but also Xiaoxi...... What to do? Go to the police? If nothing happens to Xiaoxi, playing somewhere else or doing something, wouldn't it become a lie?

After thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Ming said resolutely: "Don't panic, don't alarm the police station first." Let's go look for it, and if we don't find it today, call the police......"

Before the words fell, from Xiao Ming's side, a series of slapping sounds suddenly sounded, "Okay...... Bang Bang Bang ...... Okay" Xiao Ming and the others stared at it with wide eyes, the dementia in the old house, drooling, clapping his palms vigorously, as if he was very happy, and shouted loudly.

Normal people can't give a fool general knowledge, Xiao Ming and others have a bitter face, too lazy to take care of dementia. They hurriedly ate and prepared to go. Tongchuan County also belongs to the kind of area where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, where the floating population is frequent, and people from outside the mountains come into the mountains, that is, they want to breathe fresh air and see the scenery in the mountains.

There are also people who come with a certain purpose, such as looking for valuable treasures here. Tongchuan County, speaking of which, is also an ancient city that has survived in the wind and rain. The ancient streets, the dilapidated old buildings, the folk customs are simple, and the antique atmosphere is hidden everywhere. It is this kind of antique flavor that attracts many guys who want to make antique money.

The renovation of the old city is also aimed at some wooden buildings and houses that cannot be restored and remedied. Some well-preserved houses, such as old mansions, have been protected and restored accordingly.

The streets are full of people, but they are not as quiet and free as walking at night. Xiao Ming and the others crowded in the flow of people coming and going, looking intently for Xiao Xi's childish face.

The county town did not find Xiaoxi, and the statement that she was shopping alone is not valid! I don't know who it is, I remembered Han Bin. "Will she go to Han Bin?"

Xiaoxi went to find Han Bin? Is it possible? Jiang Rong is Han Bin's girlfriend. What is Xiaoxi? But no matter how you guess and think, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, the doubts in the big guy's heart should be put aside for the time being, and it is important to find someone! Maybe Han Bin is really with Xiaoxi now!

This sentence came out of Junjun, a clever ghost. She looked at Jiang Rong with a look of wanting to speak and stopping.

Junjun's demeanor betrayed the secret of her heart.

Junjun's confession almost didn't make Jiang Rong stunned.

Xiaoxi and Han Bin have a leg? Who can believe it? Xiaoxi, who has always been shy and not good at words, how could he hook up with Han Bin? Unless he took the initiative to seduce Xiaoxi, Jiang Rong would not believe that this best friend who had nothing to talk about with her would betray herself.
