Chapter 1 What Falls from the Sky?
Ten minutes before 8 a.m.
Click...... Click......
The sound of hurried footsteps came from afar.
It was a girl in her early twenties, and although she was in a hurry, a pair of bright water and autumn pupils seemed to be out of focus, and she was dazed and delicate. Walking all the way, fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, and the tip of her nose was slightly red.
As she walked, the girl suddenly slowed down and habitually pressed the canvas bag she was carrying.
The canvas bag is bulging, and there are a few big characters printed on it: "Lu Ji Chinese Medicine Shop".
Xu was not at ease, the girl put her hand into the backpack and flipped it left and right, and after a while, she pulled out a key from the bag.
Staring at the key in his hand, Lu Qingtian's eyes seemed to have found focus, and he exhaled softly.
She has been confused since she was a child, losing her bag, losing her key and losing her umbrella, which is a normal thing for her.
The key in the bag is already the X.0 version of the original one.
Thankfully, everything went smoothly today, she had her bag with her, and she didn't lose her keys. Logically speaking, she shouldn't be late - although being late is not a big deal for her, she always feels inappropriate.
Her current identity is the owner of this Lu Ji Chinese medicine shop. Lu Kee Chinese Medicine Museum is a time-honored brand, which was opened when her grandmother was alive and has been open for 20 years. Since her grandmother's death last month, she has officially taken over the mantle of her grandmother and has become the store's manager and sole employee.
The store is not big, because it opened early, and the location of the store is very good. Turn right out of the east gate of the community and walk for a few minutes.
According to the unwritten rules of the store, for the convenience of customers, the store must be opened before 8 o'clock. However, according to Lu Qingtian's understanding, in these years, those who are seriously ill have gone to the hospital, who will knock on the door of a Chinese medicine store at eight o'clock in the morning?
So a little later, it should be ...... Are you okay?
She comforted herself as she quickened her pace and took a step.
Boom!
A white shadow fell from the sky, and before she could react, she saw the thing smash straight into the grass not far away, making a dull sound.
Lu Qingtian was stunned for a full ten seconds before cautiously walking over.
When she saw the thing clearly, her legs went limp, and she almost fell to her knees.
Lying in the grass turned out to be a person!
It was a young woman, dressed in a white dress, which had been stained red with blood at this time, and the whole person was lying sideways in the grass in an extremely strange posture, like a melted wax man.
Lu Qingtian was sick to his stomach for a while, and almost vomited the breakfast he had just eaten.
Usually she has a big heart, and when she goes to medical school, she can eat while looking at specimens, and she was once thought by her roommate to have a brain disease, but she really can't digest the scene in front of her.
The person on the ground didn't seem to be dead yet, his limbs twitched, his eyes opened slightly, and he rolled his eyes towards the place where Lu Qingtian was standing, and a drop of blood and tears slowly fell from the corner of his eye.
Lu Qingtian trembled, as a Chinese medicine practitioner, she hadn't seen a corpse, but it was the first time she had seen a living person die in front of her.
The woman opened her mouth at Lu Qingtian, as if she had something to say.
Lu Qingtian's brain was blank for a few seconds, and the conditioned reflex generally took a few steps forward. Professionalism told her to hurry up and see if this person was saved.
Taking a few steps forward, she could see the woman's face clearly. It was a very delicate face, with skin better than snow and clear eyebrows. Only at this time, blood had begun to flow slowly from her ears and mouth, as if countless red snakes had burst out of her facial features, entwined together, and spit letters in all directions.
Breakfast was tumbling in her stomach, and Lu Qingtian covered her mouth violently, knowing in her heart that this woman was definitely hopeless.
"Forehead drops, God!!"
Before she could react further, a belated scream rang out behind her.
Mu Ran turned around, and she saw a cleaning aunt whose face was as frightened as earth, and the whole person had fallen to her knees, screaming with a broom, and it seemed that she couldn't stop for a while.
The pedestrians passing by were attracted by this cry, and they stopped one after another, and after a while, they surrounded the inner and outer three floors.
"Hit 120, hit 120!"
I don't know who shouted, and the pedestrians reacted and hurriedly began to take out their mobile phones.
Lu Qingtian shook his head, but no one could do anything about death, not even a doctor with excellent medical skills.
The noise alarmed the security guards at the gate, who quickly made their way through the crowd and surrounded the woman on the lawn.
Lu Qingtian took a few steps back, leaving room for them, turned around and left the bustling crowd, sleepwalking towards his pharmacy.
It should have been a few minutes away, but today she seemed to have walked for a long time, stepping on the road with one foot high and one foot low, and she couldn't remember how she floated to the door of the Chinese medicine store.
The carved wooden doors of the pharmacy are wide and thick, and they are closed seamlessly. Reaching into her bag, she trembled and began to pick out the keys. This time, the key seemed to have wings and disappeared, and she didn't touch it for a long time.
Secretly annoyed, the door in front of her suddenly moved, squeaked, and opened a crack on its own.
Pricked by this harsh voice, Lu Qingtian's numb brain regained a trace of sanity.
What's going on? Did you forget to close the door at night because you were sloppy yesterday?
She tentatively pushed open the door and took a few steps into the room.
The layout of the room is in the shape of a Guanyin bottle, with a small door but a spacious interior. There is a row of Chinese medicine cabinets neatly erected against the wall. There are nearly 100 small drawers on the medicine cabinet, which are tightly closed, and the names of Chinese medicines written with a brush are pasted on red paper.
This hairpin flower is beautiful and handsome, and it was inscribed by Grandma Lu Qingtian herself when she was alive. Now the color of the red paper is a little yellowed, and Lu Qingtian is reluctant to change it - being able to see this word every day can be regarded as a thought of grandma.
At this time, there was silence in the store, and a faint fragrance of Chinese medicine could be vaguely smelled, which was the smell that Lu Qingtian had been accustomed to since childhood.
She was a little relieved, and it seemed that she had indeed been confused yesterday.
Touching the corner of the wall, she snapped and turned on the light.
The light casts a shallow shadow on the wall, and you can see that the shadow is very slim.
Lu Qingtian sighed, patted his face with pity, and felt that he had been busy this month, and he had indeed lost weight again.
Just thinking about this, she suddenly felt that something was wrong—she was shaking so much just now, and the shadow had to move no matter what she said. However, just now, the shadow on the other side did not move.
Lu Qingtian's scalp suddenly exploded, there are other people in this room!
What kind of person entered the house so quietly, and after coming in, he didn't say a word?
She turned sharply, and this time, she was straight in the face.
The face was translucent, and the body was faintly floating in the air, but blood could be seen in the corners of the eyes.
Isn't it the woman who fell from the building just now? How did she show up in the store!
"Ah!!h
Lu Qingtian screamed with a wow, and his voice was raised. Soar into the sky. Rao had seen so many corpses in class, and at this moment, the adrenaline rush almost lifted her scalp.
Frightened twice, she felt like a reed in the wind, ready to fall to the ground at any moment. But the desire to survive still told her to go! Get out of here!
Knock knocked backwards several steps, and she crashed into an obstacle.
Lu Qingtian felt that he was stiff like an ice corpse at this time, and every vein exuded a cold air, just now this place was empty, where is there an obstacle now?
In horror, she stretched out her hand and pushed straight behind her.
As soon as her hands were hot, she touched a hot chest.
It was a man in a dark blue trench coat. The man's appearance is a sharp and handsome, his eyes are blazing, and there is a cold and arrogant air all over his body, and there is a calm and cold spirit that is not commensurate with his age.
That look, as if everything in heaven and earth is under his control, just standing beside him, can make people feel a sense of security in their hearts.
In a trance, she vaguely heard a man's sigh: "Qingqing." ”
Because she was so scared, Lu Qingtian wasn't sure if this sigh was her auditory hallucination. On the contrary, it was the man's body temperature that made her 100% sure that the opposite person was a living person.
"Help me! Ghosts! ”
There was another chill behind him, and Lu Qingtian was like a frightened bird, burying his head in the man's arms, like a frightened ostrich finding the sand.
The man's body exudes a crisp scent of herbs and trees, and the smell is quite refreshing. But right now, Lu Qingtian didn't have any intention to evaluate the aroma, her only thought was that this person's yang energy looked very heavy, and it would be safe for her to lean close to him.
The man was pounced on by her, and his body shook slightly, but he still stabilized.
Lu Qingtian greedily rubbed the man's body temperature, and after a big gasp, she felt as if she could stand.
The ghost I saw just now was an illusion, an illusion, an illusion.
After silently reciting it three times in her heart, she squinted her eyes and glanced behind her very quickly.
There was nothing behind her, where was there any ghost?
With a long sigh of relief, her sanity returned. Thinking about the way she was now, she didn't feel a little headache.
I just said that I was cowardly, but if I said it was bad, how could it be enough to be sexually harassed, right?
As for how this behavior should be defined, it depends on the meaning of the person being harassed.
She looked up timidly and looked towards her head, but she looked at the man squarely.
The man's pupils are extremely black, like a bottomless cold pool, and it seems to be engraved with a sealed stone full of forbidden spells, and behind the seal is three lives and three lives, you can't say it, it's wrong to say anything.
These eyes can't look more, look at them a few more, even the soul can let him take it, and he will never be able to live forever.
The moment they looked at each other, Lu Qingtian was like an electric shock, and a vague thought appeared in her mind: These eyes, she must have seen them somewhere!
