Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Courtyard Wall Falls Strangely

After cleaning up, Song Lingjian instructed Han Sanxiao to carry Hai Piao up, the black big sword poured on him like a waterfall, looking so heroic and tall, Hai Piao blinked tiredly, he spat blood in the morning, I don't know if it was blood stasis in my heart or blood from serious injuries, I feel guilty, I am willful.

Hai Piao looked at me sluggishly, Song Lingjian and Han Sanxiao were busy packing up their things, Hai Piao stared at the crack in the door, as if he was looking at my face through the crack in the door, he smiled at me slightly, he smiled so tolerant and gentle, as if he could see my helplessness and understand my guilt.

He opened his mouth slightly, as if to call "Flying ......" but did not make a sound, and there was no follow-up.

Soon, they drifted away with the sea, he was like a puppet, let Han San smile to carry him, his legs and feet staggered inconveniently, and the three of them disappeared around the corner of the alley.

I opened the door and walked out of the dark and silent corner, looking at the wooden sign hanging by Xia Xia on the door and burst into tears: the shopkeeper is sick and closed for a few days.

It turned out that what they were staring at just now was not me behind the crack in the door, but the sign hanging on the edge of the crack in the door, they must have thought that I was determined to be angry with them, and I was determined to break off friendship with them, so Song Lingjian didn't want to be angry anymore, and left here with Haipiao and left me.

The wind came through the alley, and although it was early autumn, it blew me cold.

When I went back to the house, I saw another wall tile in the corner of the courtyard - what's going on? Another piece dropped? I didn't seem to hear the sound of falling tiles last night, or did I sleep too deeply?

No, if it falls like this, the yard will be full of broken tiles, not to mention, and from time to time it will make noise to others. I put away the falling tiles, went back to my room to get dressed, and walked out of the courtyard.

There were people coming and going on the street, but everyone seemed a little silent, and Li Bei'er stopped me from afar: "Yan Fei, what's wrong, you're not in good health, wearing so many clothes?" ”

I wrapped my shirt and saw that Li Bottler was still wearing a single layer of clothes, but I had to add clothes, but I still felt cold, maybe because of my weakness.

I smiled: "No, I'm afraid there will be a temperature difference in autumn." ”

Li Bei'er said: "Where are you going?" I haven't seen you walking down the street for days. ”

Me: "There are some tiles on the courtyard wall of my house, and I want to go to Master Shi to help me paint them." ”

Li Bei'er said: "Master Shi? I'm looking for him these days, but he doesn't seem to be there, I don't know if he's out of town. ”

I wondered why someone wasn't in town?

Li Bei'er pulled me and whispered: "Do you know, Zhao Fatzi's family left overnight, and none of the former family members were left." ”

As soon as I thought about it, Li Bei'er used to be Mrs. Zhao's maid, and she might know something, so I asked her: "I'm wondering, have you heard anyone in the yaya say anything?" ”

Li Bei'er shook her head: "No, that's why I think it's strange, it stands to reason that if they want to leave, there will always be someone to sue someone or something, as if suddenly they don't even have time to speak, and suddenly they are gone, and their hearts are quite sad." ”

My heart is even more clear, I clearly heard Han Sanxiao's words last night, Lord Zhao's family didn't leave the town at all, so where did their family and a dozen people, including their family, go? Bury...... Buried?

Seeing my frightened face, Li Bei'er held my cold hand and said, "You, there are only three women in the family, and there is nothing to do in the middle of the night, so Han San laughs more in your circle, and lights a lamp in the courtyard at night, and his heart is also steady." The courtyard wall is falling tilesβ€”" Li Bei'er paused, frowning and staring at the falling tiles in my hand.

I wondered why she stopped and asked, "What's wrong with the falling tile?" ”

Li Bei'er said: "You falling tile, it doesn't seem to have fallen from the root, the middle is so neatly broken, it seems that someone broke it, and the waist cracked and fell." ”

I took a serious look at the falling tiles, and the broken seams in the middle were neat and smooth, and it was really not that the roots did not stick and fell off.

Li Bei'er immediately took my hand and said: "Could it be that a thief is so bold to climb over the wall and enter the hospital, this is not good, Master Shi is not here, you have to find someone to make up for it quickly, it is best to insert more iron pieces or something, my yard was cleaned up a few days ago, and there are more, I will take you back to get it now, and let Brother Niu help you press it." ”

I followed Li Bei'er with my heart and walked quickly, I was so scared, the town has always been too peaceful and safe, I almost don't bolt the courtyard door at night, so it is convenient for Han San to pass by and eat and drink at night, this falling tile fell strangely, was the piece also broken and fell in the middle a few days ago, as Li Bei'er said, who accidentally touched the wall and fell into the hospital? Who is this to guard against?

Could it be the "they" on Aunt Hong's words, who are they?

Li Bei'er didn't let go of my hand until she got to her house, and the yard was open to find me the remaining pieces of iron.

I looked up at the courtyard wall of Li Bei'er's house, and the courtyard wall that was originally planted with many green onions was now covered with iron sheets, and the fresh courtyard suddenly became full of vigilance, cold and serious.

Li Bei'er put the iron piece in a basket, and with some difficulty lifted it over and put it on the side to show me, it was so cold that I felt my hair stand on end.

"It's really heavy like that. Brother Niu will still be in the field, and when he comes back, I will ask him to bring it to you, and press it for you by the way. Li Bei'er's face was red, and Feifei was very charming.

I nodded a little uncomfortably, I had just quarreled with Han San Xiaoxiao and Song Lingjian, and now I was pressing the iron piece on the courtyard wall, as if I was announcing something to them.

Li Bei'er leaned in and sniffed me: "Ah, why do you still have that stinky smell on your body, you lazy girl, you haven't done your laundry properly." ”

When I looked at my clothes, it was indeed the same set of clothes that smelled like the plum bottle last time, but I have washed it several times, how can it still smell!?

I sniffed it and said, "No, no smell, you nose." ”

Li Bei'er sniffed carefully like a dog: "Yes, maybe you are used to it, but you don't smell it, it's just not as strong as last time." You better wash it again, it smells unlucky. ”

I nodded uneasily.

Li Bei'er asked me, "Have you heard any fluttering sounds lately?" ”

I shook my head, "No, I slept quite deeply, and I didn't hear anything." ”

Li Bei'er said: "I can't say it, it seems that there are birds flapping their wings laboriously, Brother Niu said that he picked up several dead birds in the field a few days ago, which is strange and scary." ”

Dead birds?

I asked her, "What bird?" Crows? ”

"No, I don't know what kind of bird it is, why do you say there are so many strange things this year, it's really unlucky."

I smiled wryly and said, "The weather changes, it may be like this, don't think too much about it." It's getting dark, and I'm going home. ”

Li Bei'er sent me to the alley: "Keep an eye on it for a while, I'll let him go to you as soon as Brother Niu comes back."

"Yes." As soon as I turned my head, my face was full of fear, I didn't dare to show my fear in front of Li Bei'er, because it would increase her fear, and many things for no reason pierced me like needles from time to time, it seems that they all think that they have been very strange lately, let alone me who has seen strange things.

Before the evening eclipse arrived, there was still light in the sky, Brother Niu came, he was a very honest and silent person, I put him on the high stool, he was sitting quietly on the left side of the courtyard door with an iron plate.

I watched from the side and asked uneasily: "Don't be too sharp, I look at it and panic." ”

Brother Niu nodded and said, "Okay." ”

I looked at the fine beads of sweat on his forehead and asked, "Are you thirsty?" I'm going to pour you some water, hot or cold? ”

Brother Niu said, "It's hot, thank you." ”

I went back to the water room to get a pot of tea for Brother Niu, and when I passed by the backyard, I saw Xia Xia's sheets spread on the basket and dried.

Fortunately, the summer quilt is thin, and I can roll it up with one hand, and as soon as I pull it, I feel that something is wrong-

The middle of the sheet bulged like something, and the sheet was faintly wetβ€”

My hands shook unconsciously, I don't know if I was weak or hooked by the things under the sheet, I pulled a few lightly and didn't stop it, a little harder, the quilt was scratched with a bang, and the covered thing was exposed from the hole, my heart seemed to be suddenly grabbed tightly by a claw, my mind was blank, and I forgot to breathe!

Yes! β€”β€”
