Chapter 118: The Mysterious Faceless Man
Because of my adventure, Bai Liunian has really moved, and this time is different from the past, for two whole days, he didn't say a word to me again.
On the evening of the third day, I was in the kitchen preparing a hot meal for Uncle Shi and Mo Jiuniang, when there was a knock on the door of the store, and my hand holding the spatula couldn't help but tremble.
Who is almost dark, and dare to come to the street to tell a fortune?
Just when he was suspicious, he heard footsteps coming down from upstairs, and then he saw Mo Jiuniang with a nervous face.
Mo Jiuniang stood behind the door, and did not mean to open the door immediately, but asked, "Who?" ”
"It's me Uncle Liu, Miss Lin Xi, you open the door."
It was indeed Uncle Liu's voice coming from outside the door, and I had already walked behind Mo Jiuniang at this moment.
This Uncle Liu is Lu Hengming's person, Mo Jiuniang instinctively resisted, made a gesture at me, and quietly went upstairs.
Watching her go upstairs, I opened the door, and saw Uncle Liu standing alone outside the door, with a car parked behind him.
"Uncle Liu, who are you?" I looked at Uncle Liu, these days must have been because of Meng Tianyi's hospitalization, his old man can't eat and sleep well, the whole person has lost a lot of weight, and the dark circles under his eyes are very heavy.
"Oh, isn't this Meng Shao wanting to see you and Mr. Bai, so he specially asked me to pick you up." Uncle Liu hurriedly told me what he intended to do.
"Meng Tianyi was discharged from the hospital?" My heart was filled with joy.
Uncle Liu nodded, but there was no joy on his face, and I didn't want to ask too much, so I hurriedly shouted Bai Liunian's name upstairs.
Bai Liunian hasn't spoken to me in the past few days, I thought he wouldn't pay attention to me, but I didn't expect to go downstairs at this time, but his face was pale and terrible.
"Let's get something to eat and go." As I spoke, I went to the cabinet and took the porcelain bottle and handed it to Bai Liunian.
Bai Liunian still didn't pick up, as if he was a angry child, he turned sideways and followed Uncle Liu directly into the car.
I could only take this porcelain vase with me, close the door of the store, and sit next to Bai Liunian.
Along the way, Uncle Liu didn't chat with us as usual, but didn't say a word, and when we arrived at the Lu family's house, Uncle Liu invited me and Bai Liunian to go up to the third floor, and went directly to Meng Tianyi's room to visit Meng Tianyi.
Pushing open the door of Meng Tianyi's room, I saw him lying on his back on the bed, and when he heard the door open, he didn't even move.
"Meng Shao, Miss Lin, and Mr. Bai are here." Uncle Liu opened his mouth and said to Meng Tianyi.
Meng Tianyi struggled and wanted to sit up.
Uncle Liu hurriedly rushed over, helped Meng Tianyi, Meng Tianyi sat up with difficulty, and said to Uncle Liu: "Uncle Liu, you go out, I have something to say to them." ”
"This?" Uncle Liu hesitated, but seeing Meng Tianyi's gloomy face, Uncle Liu could only exit the door.
However, I don't think he will be able to go far, and he may be eavesdropping on what we are saying at the door.
Seeing Uncle Liu go out, Meng Tianyi immediately motioned for us to come to his bed.
I walked over quickly and said, "Why are you so stupid, even if you are confined, you don't need to jump off the building, do you sincerely want to die?" ”
With Meng Tianyi's skills, jumping out of the window, he would not directly hit the ground on the back of his head, if it wasn't for his life, he was afraid that he would die that day.
Meng Tianyi glanced at me and shouted, "Did I jump by myself?" ”
"What?" His words made me stunned: "What do you mean, you didn't jump by yourself, is it difficult or someone else pushed you down?" ”
"Isn't it just that I was pushed down, damn, I originally wanted to sneak attack Bai Peng, who knew that a powerful force would directly push me down from the window." Meng Tianyi said with a serious face.
Bai Liunian and I both looked at him suspiciously, feeling that what he said was a little incredible.
A powerful force? At that time, it was a blue sky and a white day, could it be haunted? Moreover, wasn't Bai Peng also by Meng Tianyi's side at that time, if there was really an evil thing, how could he not know it.
"Iceface, you can help me take a look at this room." Meng Tianyi's gaze glanced slightly frightened towards the room.
Bai Liunian didn't wait for Meng Tianyi to say, he had already looked at Meng Tianyi's bedroom.
"Well, isn't there something wrong?" Meng Tianyi stared at Bai Liunian and asked.
Bai Liunian shook his head: "No." ”
"That's evil, that day, not only did I feel someone pushing me, I also seemed to see him." After Meng Tianyi finished speaking, he raised his uninjured left hand and grabbed his hair: "It's a man, it seems, it seems, there is no face!" ”
His words made me stunned, and then looked at Bai Liunian.
Bai Liunian didn't say anything, but I immediately thought of the portrait of Lu Hengming hanging in the hut, the man sitting cross-legged but faceless.
"Meng Tianyi, is your uncle at home?" I asked.
When Meng Tianyi heard me ask, he immediately replied: "I went out after seeing me in the morning, and I haven't come back yet." ”
Hearing him answer, I immediately walked towards the door, and Bai Liunian saw that I was behaving abnormally, so he quickly followed.
I slammed open the door, and Uncle Liu's body staggered, and sure enough, he was eavesdropping outside the door.
"Uncle Liu, I want to go to the toilet." I said to Uncle Liu, who was still a little embarrassed.
He nodded and motioned to me, at the end of the hallway.
I nodded, pretending to be calm and walked towards the end of the corridor, Bai Liunian followed, Uncle Liu watched me and Bai Liunian enter the toilet, and he went to take care of Meng Tianyi himself.
"What do you want to do?" Bai Liunian asked.
"Bai Liunian, before, was there a portrait of a faceless man hanging in the small room we entered?" I asked.
"Nope." Bai Liunian hesitated for a while and gave a negative answer.
"Why not, you've been looking at that portrait for a long time, haven't you?" I remember clearly, that day, Bai Liunian was still staring at the portrait and was distracted.
Hearing me say this, Bai Liunian seemed to remember something: "Oh, I was just curious why there was a blank scroll hanging in that room. ”
"Blank?" I frowned.
"Well, there's nothing wrong with being blank." Bai Liunian replied very firmly.
And I was a little confused, looking at Bai Liunian suspiciously.
"What's wrong with you?" As he spoke, he reached out and stroked my cheek with concern, as if he had forgotten for a moment that we were still in the cold war.
I shook my head a little dazedly, thinking that this thing was too weird, there was no reason for me to see it, but Bai Liunian couldn't see it.
"I'd like to go to that room and have another look." I said to Bai Liunian: "Can you help me and hold Uncle Liu back?" ”
Bai Liunian frowned, as if he didn't want to promise me.
"Don't worry, now that Lu Hengming is not in the house, I will be very careful, besides, we are still useful to Lu Hengming, he will not do anything to us." I persuaded Bai Liunian.
He hesitated, but at last he reluctantly agreed, but only gave me five minutes, and if I didn't come back after five minutes, he would come to me at once.
"Okay." I said yes, and immediately opened the toilet door and crept downstairs.
Although the Lu family's house is big, it is usually quite deserted, and I met two girls in the living room who were cleaning up, I just said that I was looking for a toilet, so I naturally went to the corridor behind it.
It's just that I don't know if I'm too excited, but as I get closer to the room, the speed of my heart gets faster and faster.
With a "bang", I pushed the sliding door open without hesitation, and as a result, what caught my eye was the portrait of the faceless man.
It's just that this portrait seems to be a little different from before, and there is a red clay seal under the bottom of the portrait, which is like a sigil.
I squinted my eyes and looked at the person in the portrait again, only to find details that I hadn't noticed before.
This meditating man seems to have a jade pendant engraved with a beast around his waist, and a very complicated character is written on the jade pendant, which looks like a "ghost text" seen in the cave before.
I took out my phone and hurriedly took a picture of it, but before I could put it away.
There was a "bang" behind him, the door suddenly closed, and when he turned around, it was Lu Hengming.
His eagle-like eyes were staring at me, and his expression was cold, as if he wanted to kill me right now.
I hurriedly smirked at him, quietly stuffed the phone back into my pocket, and then turned around and said, "Lord Lu Yin, you're back." ”
Lu Hengming looked at me and was about to speak, when Bai Liunian's cry sounded outside.
Only then did he pull the door open, and then coldly threw down a sentence: "Since you are here, let's dine together, I also happen to have something to say to you." ”
"Okay." I stumbled in response.
He stared at me and asked, "Don't go out yet." ”
"Ah, I'll get out of here." I hurriedly ran out of this room, and as soon as I came out, I saw Bai Liunian standing in the corridor waiting for me.
I didn't care too much, so I took out my mobile phone and showed the photos I took to Bai Liunian.
As a result, Bai Liunian stared at the screen for a long time, but turned his face sideways and looked at me in confusion.
"Look at the portrait above, that man just doesn't have a face." I pointed to my phone.
Bai Liunian turned his phone in front of me: "There is no one on the painting at all." ”
"How?" Before I finished my words, I was shocked, there was really no one, just a blank scroll.
This made me feel even more weird and inexplicable, and at this moment, Lu Hengming had already come out of that room, and when he saw that we were still standing in the corridor, he invited us to dinner.
However, this Lu Hengming obviously has a lot of worries recently, and he doesn't beat around the bush with us, and tells us bluntly that there is a very important matter, and he hopes that Bai Liunian and I will go to the north with his people.
Moreover, we will be arranged to leave as soon as possible, I immediately frowned, thinking that the very important thing in his mouth should be related to the evil spirit key, but now that the fat man is missing, Sister Qinglian has not brought it back, so many things have not been done, he actually chose this time to let us go to the north?
