Chapter 19: The Fruit Shop Owner
Ye Liang glanced at the old apricot tree, and looked at the meaning of 1,800 years, this apricot blossom essence has been practicing for so many years, and she is still an underage girl, it seems that this line is not very good, and it is understandable that she can't see the appearance of the murderer that day.
Xinghuajing saw Ye Yuan's eyes spinning on the apricot tree and herself, her eyes rolled around, and she quibbled: "It was raining heavily that day, and it was dark again." ”
"Since it was raining heavily that day, how did the woman run into the alley to solicit customers?"
Soliciting? Xinghuajing's eyes blinked: "Ah, she always drags people around here, but not that night, she came to buy fruit that night." The rain was not too heavy, drizzle, at first I didn't even have to hold an umbrella, the woman just ran here, went in for a long time, and when the fruit came out, the rain suddenly became heavy, and she hid over there to avoid the rain! ”
Xinghuajing pointed to a tall plane tree in the alley, and said with disdain: "What kind of cow, and can't bloom and bear fruit, just grow leaves, can give people shelter from the rain, and the cow will go to the sky." ”
Ye Limit glanced at the plane tree, this tree was close to the other exit of the alley, but he couldn't see the existence of spirits, Ye Limit stretched out his hand and clicked on the apricot blossom essence: "You are really good, you are jealous of an ordinary tree." ”
According to the description of Xinghuajing, the woman bought fruit when the accident happened that night, and when it rained heavily, she went to the plane tree at the other exit of the alley to take shelter from the rain, and then the accident happened.
"What fruit did she buy?" Ye Limit asked.
Xinghuajing scratched the back of her head, looking dazed: "I didn't see this, maybe it was dark, I didn't see what fruit she was holding, anyway, it would be a while to go in." ”
"You see, on the other side of the alley, I can't see what is going on when it's raining and it's dark, but the murderer who gnawed on the sugar cane walked from my side, and I couldn't see his appearance clearly in a raincoat, and I only smelled a bad smell that was stinky and sour, and it smelled bad."
Xinghuajing spread her hands after speaking: "Look, I'm done, you have to help me teach the fruit shop owner a lesson." ”
Ye Liang thought about it, took out a talisman from his bosom and hung it on the apricot tree, and after hanging it, it gradually merged with the torso of the apricot tree, which was indistinguishable to the naked eye.
"What's this?" Xinghuajing screamed, "Hey, it's a little itchy, what are you sticking to me?" Dog skin plaster? ”
"Don't worry, with this thing, no one will dare to pick your fruit."
Ye Limit promised with a smile.
Apricot blossom essence was skeptical. It turned out that the method of leaf limitation was crude and effective. The next year, when the fruit was ripe, the owner of the fruit shop plucked all the fruit overnight and sold it. As a result, two days after selling it, someone came to the door with apricots and smashed the apricots in his face, saying that he was black-hearted. It turns out that all the apricots are sour and can't be eaten.
The boss was depressed: "No, I ate a few of them all sweet." ”
"Sweet, then you give me all this."
It's still the head of a gang leader who buys apricots.,Usually I can't wait to walk sideways around here.,Ignore it and stir up three points.。 The boss picked up the apricot and took a bite, and his sour eyebrows were about to fall off. The woman's eyes widened and she waved her hand and said, "Smash me!" ”
The fruit shop was smashed into a mess.
The onlookers are all people in the alley, secretly applauding and picking up the fruit that was thrown on the ground, the owner of the fruit shop is usually too domineering, the apricot trees at the mouth of the alley are occupied by him, and others will be chased and scolded by him when they pick one. How can there be such a business? Someone said this, but the boss snorted coldly: "Business, what business do you have with you poor ghosts?" ”
This alley is inhabited by poor people, and the boss opens a shop here, because he takes a fancy to this thousand-year-old apricot, and the customers who buy fruits are also people from the alley next to him. Today, seeing that the people who dare to be angry and dare not speak are deflated, everyone is secretly happy. This apricot has been bitter and can't be eaten, someone picks one and eats it, and throws it far away, it has been like this for several years in a row, no one dares to touch the fruit on the apricot tree, occasionally the little doll climbs up to pick a few, used to beat people to play.
Later, people in the neighborhood said that the old apricot tree was sick.
Xinghua's hands crossed her waist: "You are sick, your whole family is sick!" The fruit shop was smashed once, could not be opened, the boss closed the door and ran away, an elderly woman said that this apricot tree has a spirit, the fifteenth day of the first month prepared a meal and fragrant candles to kneel under the apricot tree, the apricot tree spirit sat on the branch, the calves swayed, saw the women kneeling on the ground muttered: "Rice and cabbage want to send me?" Is it okay to add a chicken leg? ”
These things are a later story, of course, because of the charm that Ye Limit hangs.
At this moment, Ye Liang saw that Xinghuajing's eyes were full of doubts, and he touched her hair: "Don't worry, I said that I will sit down, and it seems that the year is fruitful." ”
Ye Liang calmed the apricot blossom essence, walked to the door of the fruit store, and heard a familiar voice sounding inside: "Think about it carefully, did you really see nothing that night?" ”
Why is Xiao Wu here too? Ye Quan was puzzled in his heart, and hid outside the door panel, and heard the boss's voice coming: "How late is it, Mr. Police Officer, you also said it, it's still raining outside, of course I closed the store early, I don't know anything, and besides, it's been fourteen years, who can remember this." "The owner of the fruit shop didn't know anything.
His Vajra Lux-like wife nodded beside him, and his urn voice was angry: "That's right, Mr. Officer, it's raining and closing early." ”
"You weren't home that night, how did you know he closed early?"
Ye Liang walked in and asked with a smile, the proprietress starved like a calf: "How do you know that I am not at home?" ”
"That's because, if you were at home that day, how could the boss summon that dead Jizi to come over and accompany him?" Ye Liang deliberately winked at the proprietress with an innocent face.
Xiao Wu was very surprised, he didn't expect Ye Liang to appear here, and he could still say this, how did she know what happened on a rainy night fourteen years ago?
The boss's face turned red: "Who is Nong, nonsense, Nong took the wrong medicine and stiffened?" As he spoke, his eyes kept on the proprietress who was angry at King Kong.
Ye Liang immediately understood that her guess was right, she smiled at the proprietress and said, "There was a murder that night, and the old residents who came to the alley remember it." ”
The proprietress nodded involuntarily, and listened to Ye Liang continue: "You must remember the events of that night, I'm afraid you're going back to your parents' house, right?" ”
The proprietress couldn't help nodding: "Yes, yes, my mother-in-law is sick, I am in the hospital, and I didn't go home until noon the next day, and I didn't know that there was a death in this alley when I got home." The proprietress rolled her eyes, "How do you know about this?" ”
That's right, Xiao Wu also wants to ask how you know, what happened fourteen years ago, you said the same as seeing it with your own eyes.
"It was the ghost of the dead girl who told me." Ye Liang glanced at Xiao Wu and smiled, "Take people's money and people to eliminate disasters, I took the money from the female ghost's family and helped her overdue, boss, you don't know, the female ghost has been dead for many years, but the ghost has been trapped in this alley, to be precise, trapped in your shop." ”
The boss was shocked: "What do you care about me?" ”
"Of course there's something, she didn't have an accident until she accompanied you, the drizzle when she first came, it became a heavy rain from you, and you still drove her out of the heavy rain, but something happened, you say, does she hate you?"
The boss was so frightened at the moment that the boss shouted: "Misan, I'll kill you!" How dare you steal food behind my back! ”
