The once lush and vibrant seedling orchard was silent at this time, and there was a dead atmosphere all around. The peony walked silently along the Xiao road, stopping every two steps to observe the diseased, pruned peony flowers. At this moment, her heart was desolate, and there was an indescribable resentment and anger.

The news found by Shun Monkey is that there is no contact between Lu Alcohol or Lu Fang and Cao Wanrong, Lu Fang has stayed at home and has not gone out, Lu Alcohol is still sick, but there is no yao scum in the garbage thrown away by his family; This year's climate is special, not only the peony in Fangyuan is infected with this disease, but there are epidemics in various Taoist temples and flower farmers' homes, including Caojia Garden, which also burned a batch of peony branches and leaves some time ago, but no one is as serious as Fangyuan.

Zhou Banniang inquired about the situation that there were no strangers wandering around Fangyuan recently, and the people who came and went were all familiar faces, or people who knew the roots, otherwise the villagers would have come to talk a long time ago. Peony believes this, looking at the bad luck of Lu Fang's master and servant at the beginning, he knows how great the power of the masses is.

Peony naturally doesn't believe in any feng shui evil spirits, nor does she believe that there will be such a big epidemic under her control, Lu Fang's care, and Li Huajiang's management. There must be an external cause for such a thing to happen. Her brow furrowed tighter. When she walked to a place, she suddenly stopped, looked around with wide eyes, and pondered for a long time, but her brow became more and more wrinkled.

She was standing in the middle of the nursery at the moment, and looking in all directions from this direction, she could just see that the most severely damaged peony flowers were connected into a radiating xìng pattern centered on her, like two diagonal crosses forked together. The peony and peony on these eight spools are the most seriously affected, they are like a radioactive source, infecting the anthrax bacteria to the surrounding flowers and trees.

Peony recalled Yuhe's words, when Li Huajiang was taking care of the sick peony flowers, the situation was that he had just cleaned up this side, and that side was done again. One after another, none of them stopped, and it was very strange. Now that she saw the existence of these eight spools, she quickly understood the key to it, which was definitely not a coincidence, but a well-planned conspiracy. The germ spread from eight directions, and then bit by bit the peony in the seedling country was eaten away, with vicious intentions and ruthless means, leaving no room for anything.

Who brought the source of the disease into the seedling country and how? Is it an external thief or an internal thief? If you want to know how things came about, you have to deduce them slowly and carefully. If she had the intention of framing someone, so that the person's peony garden would collapse from now on, and she knew that the person had a master of taking care of the peony flowers and was very tightly defended, what kind of way would she take to achieve her goal? Peony squatted on the ground, picked up a stone and began to write.

First of all, she wants to know the specific situation of Fang Yuan, know what the layout of Fang Yuan is, be able to enter and exit freely, or be close to Fang Yuan without causing any alarm, and also think about entering the seedling garden: then she has to solve the problem of Li Huayuan and Da Hei who have lived in the seedling garden for a long time, how vigilant Li Huachang and Da Hei are, see Lu Fang's bite incident, so these two must be solved, so Li Huajiang is sick, and Da Hei, who has always been inseparable from him, will naturally be firmly in front of his bed.

Okay, this person and a dog solved it, and then Lu Fang was stationed, and then Lu Yu was sick and called him home, and then Yuhe moved to the seedling garden to live, and she was also sick. The period from the illness of the plum gardener to the illness of the rain lotus is the stage when the seedlings are infected and sick.

Now let's deduce what happened at this stage. Before Yuhe fell ill, the epidemic had already occurred, so letting Yuhe get sick was just to cut off the management of Fangyuan when Li Huajiang was not well, in order to let the epidemic spread and infect more flowers and trees. When Li Huajiang was sick, she was still in Fangyuan, and everything was fine.

Therefore, the time period when he was really infected was born when Lu Fang was still in Fangyuan. The method of spreading anthrax bacteria is very simple, as long as the pink and slightly sticky conidia that appear on the surface of the diseased part are applied to the stems and leaves of peonies, and in the climate of high temperature, rain and humidity, it will soon form a disaster.

The peony is a little unstoppable. She raised her eyes to look at the high wall of the seedling garden, and asked Yuhe softly: "In the few days that Lu Fang was here, did he drink every day?" Who do you drink with? What about Kang'er? ”

Yuhe said: "I don't drink it every day, sometimes I drink a little with Junko and them, give them a point, and sometimes I get together with the florists to gossip." I hadn't seen him drunk, but he got up late every morning. Kang'er, Kang'er just played better with Shunzi, and there were still some xiao children, but I couldn't see anything wrong. She looked at Peony worriedly: "Do you suspect it's them?" Peony shook her head: "What do you say if you suddenly faint?" Could it be that he came home and came to hurt you overnight? "Li Huajiang's old illness is still forgivable, Yuhe's body has always been very healthy, and he can't say anything. How could you faint inexplicably? Regardless of whether there is a problem with Lu Fang's master and servant, there are probably thieves in this garden. But nothing can be said until there is conclusive evidence.

Peony stood in the shade of the tree and walked back and forth in distress, is it an internal thief or an external thief? What was she going to do? Knowing that someone had harmed her, but not being able to find out that person and let him be punished as he deserved, what could be more depressing than this?

Mother Lin chattered on the side: "This wall needs to be built a little higher to be safe, I always feel that it is a little shorter." ”

Peony hurriedly said: "Shun Monkey, Shun Monkey, you come here." ”

Shun Monkey hurriedly ran over: "What do you want from the lady?" ”

Peony said: "I remember that you have a skill, come and go without a trace, fast and light, isn't that so?" ”

Shun Monkey said: "I don't dare to say that, but my hands and feet are slightly lighter and more flexible than others." ”

Peony asked him: "If it were you, if you wanted to go directly to Fangyuan to visit without the permission of the master, would you be able to do it?" ”

"Xiao's dish." Shun Monkey was slightly complacent, "I can also enter the Guogong Mansion!" Not to mention this. ”

"How about someone like you?"

Shun Monkey was asked, touched his head and thought for a while, and said vaguely: "Probably, probably not too much." ”

"It's not much." Peony pointed to the wall of the seedling garden: "So what if a person who is not as skilled as you wants to enter this kind of seedling garden?" "The wall of the seedling garden is the highest in the garden, and it is covered with porcelain ballast and other things, and it is impossible to enter and exit several times without some technology. A person like Lu Fang would have to bring a ladder and a cotton mat to do so. A few more visits, there will always be clues. She really didn't want to believe that this matter had something to do with Lu Fang's master and servants, as well as the people of Fangyuan.

Shun Monkey immediately understood the meaning of the peony, and immediately said: "Let's wait for Xiao to investigate clearly and go back and forth." After that, he walked to the wall, and with the help of a willow lining, he jumped and grasped it a few times, and he went up to the wall lightly and skillfully. He quickly took two things out of his bosom, put them on his feet, and deftly searched the edge of the wall. It caused Lin's mother and others to exclaim.

Peony retracted his gaze and instructed Yuhe: "Go and ask Zhou Banniang for a favor again, and ask her to ask if there are any relatives or friends in the village who have been here these days, and who are they?" She couldn't think of anything else but that. In case it really doesn't work, you can only tell Jiang Changyang and let Jiang Changyang check it. As for Jin Buyan, she smiled bitterly, probably only losing money. However, presumably Cao Wanrong, Lu Alcohol and others were already prepared, just waiting for her to lose the accident and take over the business, as long as Jin Buyan was notified in advance and the money was returned to him, he could still use the money to buy the flowers he wanted from Cao Wanrong and Lu Alcohol, so as not to delay his mother's birthday party.

When the last rays of sunset set on the horizon, Fang Yuan was brightly lit. Peony sat on the steps in front of the main hall and looked at the people in front of him in silence. The expressions of the crowd were different, and the frustration and anticipation of the group of half-grown children led by Junko were hidden in the frustration, and they stood there quietly, looking at her expectantly, with trust and dependence in their eyes.

The hired florists with Zheng Florist are more anxious and fearful, and they are impatient. They exchanged glances at each other, quietly gesticulating in hidden places, being hostile to the guild, having bad feng shui, and evil spirits, they will definitely pay a lot of money next year. No matter how you look at it, Peony and Fangyuan are going to be unlucky. Good birds choose trees to perch, Fangyuan is unreliable, they want to support their families, naturally have to consider their own way out.

Peony then looked at the plum gardener who was sitting to her left. After this scene, Li Huajiang was much darker and thinner, and he sat there in a daze, his eyes not looking at anyone, but staring at the square bricks under his feet, his expression silent and sad. The only thing that remains unchanged is the big black, which firmly occupies the position between the plum gardener and the peony, rubbing this and that, left and right. Occasionally looking up at the peony, the brown eyes are full of tenderness and trust.

People are really not as trustworthy as animals, Peony rubbed his thick and warm head and cleared his throat: "I think everyone knows what is going on in our garden, and I just want to talk to everyone about this when I gather the big guys together." I heard some people say that the feng shui of Fang Yuan is not good and has evil spirits, so Master Zheng, you have to quit your job, is there such a thing? ”

Zheng Huajiang was silent for a moment and said: "Lady, Xiao knows that it is a little unkind to quit at this time, but Xiao is a craftsman who supports his family with two hands and skills. If you get this mold, no one will be able to do the work in the future. Xiao's family still has a mother and a few children to raise.,Please also have a lot of adults.,Let xiao's.。 ”

At the beginning of him, several florists responded one after another, and stepped forward to bargain with Peony: "The lady is allowed to Xiao's people, Xiao's people don't want this month's salary." ”
