Chapter 16: The Truth
016
"What a strange rain!" Tao Li, who was startled by the thunder and didn't dare to sleep all night, rubbed his eyes and lay on the dinner table again, "How many months is this?" It's not summer, how can there be thundershowers?! β
Mei Junxing didn't answer, just stunned at a somewhat pitiful plant that had just been washed by the heavy rain.
Tao Li rarely saw Mei Junxing in a daze, and felt that it was a little interesting, so he opened one eye and closed the other, staring at Mei Junxing lazily for a while. In fact, Tao Li was also thinking about things, after all, it was only a day later, how could she forget the three-day desperate pill in her stomach, and the disgusting big cousin. Ah, one more thing...... Tao Li reached out and grabbed Mei Junxing's sleeve and shook it a few times.
Mei Junxing, who was stunned, turned around, as if he was not in a state very much.
Tao Li thought that he was not the only one who didn't sleep well last night, and said, "Where is the east of the city?" β
"Why do you ask this?" Mei Junxing frowned and looked at Tao Li a lot in a row, and Tao Li was inexplicable.
"What's wrong? Why do you look at me like that? β
Mei Junxing still stared at Tao Li, and after seeing Tao Li's ignorant stupidity, his expression slowly relaxed, "You don't need to know this, well, by the way, aren't you going to build a small vegetable garden?" The hoe is ready, I'll get you ......"
After Mei Junxing finished speaking, he left quickly, as if he was afraid that Tao Li would be entangled again.
Tao Li fell into such a mysterious mystery about what kind of ghost is "Xixi Chengdong", looking at Mei Junxing's appearance, it turns out that the disgusting big cousin chose a great "good place".
But what can it be that makes Mei Junxing so disgusted, and what can it be? Could it be that there are some enemies of Mei Junxing living there? Or a creditor? If Tao Li didn't know that she was Mei Junxing's escape partner, she would have thought that Mei Junxing had some little lover there.
However, it is naΓ―ve to simply bring modern theories into this unknown era.
When Mei Junxing went to get the hoe, he was suddenly stunned, he forgot to ask Tao Li who told her the name of the largest flower building in the west, and he had to tell her to stay away from that person.
Although, this time, Tao Li did not succeed in getting Mei Junxing to tell her where the location was, it does not mean that Tao Li will just forget about it.
Although there are still two or three days to go, but according to the experience of running to the Qingguan with Mei Junxing every time, every time I open the eleventh road (both legs), if the east of the city is a little farther away, it is really difficult to say when I will be able to go.
Sure enough, I still can't let Mei Junxing go easily.
made up his mind, Tao Li waited for Mei Junxing to bring the hoe, and was thinking about what to do to speak, but he didn't expect Mei Junxing to open his mouth first.
"Who told you about that place?"
"Huh?" Tao Li was stunned for a moment, but then began to think seriously.
In fact, she was just about to break the jar and say "cousin" or something, but then she thought about it, why is she so obedient? Since she came to this world, to be honest, she still trusts Mei Junxing the most, but now in an inexplicable situation, she wants to bring an inexplicable person to Mei's house, isn't it too much to eat!
However, Tao Li tilted his head and looked at Mei Junxing with complicated eyes, until he saw that Mei Junxing also quietly observed whether his clothes were reasonable.
"Honestly, you actually have a lot of background, huh?"
Tao Li just wanted to make fun of Mei Junxing, because she didn't think that the desperate pill in her stomach was because of how gorgeous she was.
Mei Junxing's heart moved slightly because of this sentence, but on the surface, he still didn't move.
"Forget it, I'll tell you." Tao Li looked at Mei Junxing's stupid face, and really decided to break the jar.
The rest of the time, Tao Li carefully explained to Mei Junxing the situation of the foot-picking man he encountered after returning home yesterday.
What kind of feeling is this, Tao Li sighed, probably like the parents who chose to call the police but still chose to call the police when the kidnappers said that they would call the police. Don't call the police, I'm afraid of tearing up the ticket, call the police, I'm still afraid of tearing the ticket.
But in the end, Tao Li chose to join the police.
Sure enough, after Mei Junxing listened, his face became solemn.
"That ......" Mei Junxing seemed to have made a lot of determination, "That, in addition to saying those words, did that person do anything to you?" β
Mei Junxing's expression was very serious, and Tao Li also picked up the hoe with a serious expression to take action against Mei Jun, "I am uncertain about life and death, and you still give me gossip about these things!! β
Mei Junxing was beaten up by Tao Li and jumped up, although he didn't understand any gossip, but he roughly knew why Tao Li beat him in context.
"I, stop! Listen to me! Mei Junxing grabbed Tao Li with one hand and controlled her murder weapon, "I don't think you were poisoned before you asked this first!" β
Tao Li paused, put away his tap, and smashed it on the ground, looking like I would give you a minute to explain, Mei Junxing had a subtle feeling when she looked at it, as if she was the wife of the red apricot out of the wall and explained to her husband.
Hurriedly denied his delusion, Mei Junxing explained: "In my opinion, no matter what kind of poison, if you are hit, there will be an omen in the body, since you have been poisoned for a day, it stands to reason that this is a poison that kills people in three days, how can you still be so alive now?" β
Frankly speaking, Tao Li, who was explained by an ancient person with a scientific attitude, is impossible to say without feeling ashamed at all.
It's all harmed by martial arts TV dramas, if you think about it carefully, the so-called killing is invisible, taking the soul in three days, and asking for life in seven days is still quite fantastical.
"Ah......" Tao Li couldn't bear to look at Mei Junxing's righteous words, and turned his face away, "What you said makes sense." β
Mei Junxing was strange, wasn't he talking about good news, how to look at Tao Li's lost look.
"What's wrong with you?" Mei Junxing asked.
"It's fine, just a little ashamed." Tao Li threw away the small hoe and sat down down.
Hearing the reason, Mei Junxing couldn't help but feel relieved, raised his hand and touched Tao Li's head, "It's okay, you're still young, it's okay to be bluffed." β
To be honest, this nerd definitely didn't know how much damage he had caused to himself unconsciously, Tao Li held his forehead, "But, what about the big man who tricked me into picking my feet?" I think he might have bad intentions against you. β
"Oh yes, speaking of this man." Mei Jun was upright, "Did he do anything to you?" β
"I'll beat you up if you ask this nonsense again." Taking advantage of the fact that he is in a bad mood now, even his sweetheart has done it, Tao Li thought.
