The eighteenth chess opponent

After we chatted with Granny Gui for a while, Fang Ling finally rejected Granny Gui's "kindness" in person. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 However, Granny Gui didn't seem to care, and at Fang Ling's request, she used her so-called "witch doctor's technique" to help me treat the wounds on my body.

In fact, in my opinion, it means that some herbs with a pungent smell are mashed and applied to my wounds. However, it is incredible that this backward method is surprisingly effective. Anyway, not long after applying the medicine, I felt that the wounds on my body were no longer as stinging and unbearable as before.

After that, the two of us were arranged by Granny Gui to live in the house that Mu Zihan used when he was in Snake Village. They even had food and water brought to us, and I finally experienced the warmth of the villagers in Snake Village. Although there is a language barrier between us and them, we are surprisingly friendly when we see the way they look at us, and they keep bringing us all kinds of food. However, I think there may also be a relationship between our identity as Mu Zihan's friend.

When Fang Ling and I rested in Snake Village for three days, although my injuries had not healed, they were no longer serious. Considering that Mu Zihan, who might still be entangled with the "Butterfly Mark" alone, I decided after discussing with Fang Ling that it was time to leave Snake Village and go back.

So, the two of us went to the small stone house in the depths of the cave again to find Granny Gui and prepare to bid her farewell.

"What? You're going back so soon? Why not stay longer? "This dead old woman has been surprisingly kind and hospitable this time, and she actually kept us, and I don't know what the hell she was trying to do.

"No, mother-in-law, I have to go back quickly. I took annual leave in the bureau, and when I calculated the time, it was almost due. So, if I don't hurry back, I'm in trouble. Fang Ling replied: "Wait until I have time next time, and then come to see you." ”

"What kind of break in the game, go out for a few days, and have to ask for leave? Girl, if you are willing to take over, you will be the biggest in this village in the future, everyone has to listen to you, and you can do whatever you want. Obviously, Granny Gui hasn't given up her plan to let Fang Ling take over her class.

"Thank you mother-in-law for your kindness, I'll think about it." Fang Ling had no choice but to answer.

"Okay, I know that our small village can't keep you. Forget it, I won't talk about it, I will be satisfied to come to see my old woman when I have time. Granny Gui interrupted Fang Ling's words, handed her a palm-sized porcelain vase, and said a little lost: "Nuo, this is for you, keep it, don't fall it." When you go back, just give this bottle to Xiao Muzi. By the way, don't open it halfway. Well, that's it. Let's go, let's go, let's go! Hey......" After saying that, she actually ignored us, turned around and walked back to the small stone house, and slammed the door shut.

Looking at her lonely back at the end, I couldn't help but feel a trace of sympathy in my heart. I feel that although this Granny Gui speaks harshly, in fact, like Mu Zihan, she is a hard-mouthed and soft-hearted person, and she is a poor and lonely old man. If I have time in the future, I really want to visit her more, even if I fight with her, that's not bad.

After saying goodbye to Granny Gui, we set out on the return journey, and thanks to the help of the snake guard Dazhuang and the others, we rushed back to the town near Changworm Mountain that night, and in the afternoon three days later, I finally returned to the door of the detective office.

Standing at the door of the office, looking at the slightly open door of the office, and there was no trace of the door lock being picked, I knew that Mu Zihan's guy had really safely gotten rid of the "butterfly mark" during the period when I was deceived by him to go to Yunnan, but I don't know if he succeeded in arresting the other party in turn?

"Detective Muta, long time no see." I smiled and pushed the door in, thinking about how to settle accounts with Mu Zihan for a while, at least I want him to give me a raise and pay me a new mobile phone.

However, when I opened the door and saw Mu Zihan, who was sitting on the office chair as if he was lying down and resting his feet on the desk in front of me, as in the past, I suddenly felt like a world away.

Seeing the bandages with some bright red blood still wrapped around his forehead, and his still somewhat pale face, made me forget about "settling accounts" for a moment.

"Siyuan, you're back." When Mu Zihan saw me enter the door, he stood up from the chair with great joy and quickly greeted me.

"Hmm." I replied with a smile, quickly turned around and found the porcelain vase that Granny Gui gave us from the hiking bag behind me, handed it to him and said, "By the way, this is for you, this thing should be the real purpose of you asking me to find Granny Gui." This broken bottle can toss me to death, because of it, Fang Ling and I didn't dare to take a plane when we returned, for fear that we wouldn't be able to pass the security check. Otherwise, I would have been able to return here yesterday. What's in it? It's so mysterious, that dead old woman actually doesn't allow me and Fang Ling to open it halfway. ”

"Well, that's it, it's easy to do with this! As for what it is, you'll know when the time comes. Mu Zihan took the porcelain vase and said happily: "Siyuan, this trip is really hard for you." Look at your scarred appearance, go and get some rest. ”

"It's okay, your appearance is also half a catty." As I spoke, I walked over to the familiar sofa and sat down, and continued: "Detective Muta, I won't say anything else, should you tell me if you caught the 'Butterfly Mark'?" ”

"I was about to catch him, but unfortunately, I let him run away in the end." Mu Zihan also sat down on the single sofa opposite me, carefully placed the porcelain vase on the coffee table, and then looked at me and said, "I have to admit that he is indeed the most difficult and cunning gangster I have ever seen, there is no one." I originally thought that it was a foolproof net, but I didn't expect to be torn open by him in the end, which really made me feel a little defeated. ”

However, when I looked at his expression, there was no trace of a sense of loss and frustration, but he was full of fighting spirit. Those eyes that used to be deep as if they could see through everything in the world now exude the look of a child finding a new toy.

Then, I was even more curious and urged him to tell me about the fierce battle that took place between him and the "Butterfly Mark" during this time. And after a moment of silence, he finally began to tell me in detail at my request.

As he spoke, I sat across from him and deeply felt the excitement in his heart at the moment, like a world-class chess master, finally meeting an opponent, and even speaking of excitement, his whole body seemed to be trembling uncontrollably because of extreme excitement.
