Chapter 4: The Dark Eye
After following Hyun Hongye back to the restaurant, I went straight to the back kitchen, and at the same time told Momiji to sit down first, and I prepared a bowl of decanting soup for her. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Momiji waved her hand, and then crawled on the table and flipped around, like a minor girl, dishonestly moving, sometimes looking at my iron box with kitchen knives, sometimes playing with the tea set on my desk, and finally studying the diary of my old class leader.
I looked at her drunken eyes, smiled helplessly, and plunged into the back kitchen.
But when I entered the back kitchen, reflexively ready to turn on the lights, I was stunned.
Because in the darkness, I was sure I saw a faint shadow, desperately burrowing under the stove in the kitchen!
"Who!" I yelled.
At this time, the guy who was desperately drilling into the bottom of the pot was scolded by me, and he said in an embarrassed voice: "I, Ah Si!" I didn't see anything! I'm definitely not going to talk to the king. ”
I turned on the light, looked at Xiao Ah Si's face and looked at the bottom of the pot, and suddenly I couldn't cry or laugh.
Obviously, this little guy saw the sudden arrival of Hyun Momiji as a "tryst" between me and her. But the truth is not what he imagined at all.
Forget it, I don't bother to explain.
Facing Xiao Ah Si with a nervous face, I asked him to give me a hand first and make a "hangover soup" for Xian Hongye.
Since Xiao Ah Si unlocked the White Food Gu, he has completely gotten rid of the shadow of his previous master, Xiao Jiu'er, and because of this, he is grateful to me and Wang Ye, and he can't get rid of us if he has to give us a start. He said that he would rather not make money, as long as he gave his mouth to eat.
However, because of his joining, the business of my Bayi restaurant has been much better recently, and many people in the county know that I have hired a "little dwarf" here as a runner, and it is said that he can also perform acrobatics, and many diners feel fresh and come to have a look.
This little Ah Si can also be regarded as my little God of Wealth.
After making the sobering soup, I knocked on Xiao Ah Si's head and said, "Boy, I have nothing with Xian Hongye, don't think crookedly, and Wang Roar can't handle people at all." Got it? ”
At this point, a strange feeling crossed my mind. I want to say it, but I can't say it clearly.
Xiao Ah Si smiled at me and went back to his room to sleep. Then I was alone, with a large bowl of decanting soup made from tomato and celery juice, and went out into the living room.
In the living room, Hyun Hongye was still flipping through the diary left for me by my old squad leader, and she was smiling stupidly.
As soon as she saw me coming, she pointed out a page of her diary to me: "You were very silly when you first became a soldier!" Everywhere and the squad leader to do it, out of the ocean! Ever eaten a cursed fish?! ”
Listening to Xian Hongye's words, I sighed in my heart.
The old squad leader is really, just write about your own things, why do you want to write my appearance in the diary, it's really not interesting.
Therefore, I hurriedly put down the decanting soup, pointed to the diary and said, "Young and ignorant, give it to me, you sober up first!" ”
As I spoke, I hurriedly reached out and snatched the diary, which also recorded many of my misdeeds.
But at this time, Xian Hongye didn't do it, she smiled at me like a child, and with the strength of wine, she suddenly shook the diary from side to side to avoid my snatching.
This little girl actually dares to ...... Provoking me?!
After repeating this two or three times, Hyun Hongye, who was already a little uncoordinated in his body, suddenly "got off". With a slick of her hand, she threw out my old squad leader's diary and landed it in my big bowl of tomatoes and celery "hangover soup" impartially.
This sudden situation made me feel in a hurry, and Hyun Momiji seemed to realize his mistake, and looked at me like a rabbit with a stupid face.
Immediately, she said to me cutely, "You won't scold me, will you?!" ”
Hey, Momiji is so smart, since she said so...... I'm sure I can't scold it.
In desperation, I gave up my plan to teach a lesson, twisted my eyebrows, and hurriedly fished out the relics of the old squad leader from the soup pot. After a few shakes, it was found that the inner soil was not soaked, but the cover of the brown paper was finished.
I said solemnly, "Don't make such jokes next time." ”
As I spoke, I took off the vellum-wrapped cover and wanted to dry it to see if there was any room for redemption.
However, just as I removed the brown paper cover from the old squad leader's diary, a piece of letter paper that I had never seen before quietly fell from the gap between the cover and the body of the book.
Hyun Momiji and I looked down at the palm-sized piece of paper.
Momiji immediately spoke: "Pick it up and take a look, it's not ordinary to put it in such a hidden place!" ”
I nodded, and immediately picked up the piece of paper.
Then a circular pattern came into my eye.
It was a "stamp" drawn with a ballpoint pen.
In the middle of the second concentric circle is a flower that I have never seen before, and the flower has only four petals, and these four petals together seem to be a skull, two black holes, and a skull smiling at people.
In addition, there are only five simple Chinese characters on this letter paper - "Miao Jiang Goddess Flower".
The simple five Chinese characters were casually marked on the side of the circular pattern by my old squad leader, which seemed to be graffiti from a letter pen.
I looked at that thing and didn't take it seriously.
Isn't Miaojiang the Guizhou region? This pattern must have been a flower that my old squad leader saw when he was a soldier in Guizhou, probably because he liked it, so he drew it casually.
So, I looked up and told Momiji: "When we were soldiers, we weren't allowed to bring mobile phones, maybe my old squad leader liked this flower, so he drew it." ”
However, compared to my idle words, Xian Hongye's face was extremely gloomy.
I don't know why, her whole body became solemn, staring carefully at the paper in my hand, and I was a little hairy when I saw it.
Then, Xian Hongye stretched out his slightly trembling hand, and with my incomprehensible expression, he took the letter paper with what was painted "Miaojiang Goddess Flower".
After looking at it for a long time, Xian Hongye asked me with some excitement: "Did your squad leader mention this kind of flower to you before his death?" ”
I could only shake my head, the old squad leader didn't mention a word about this plant during his lifetime.
At this time, Hyun Hongye looked at the piece of paper and seemed to remember something very important.
She hurriedly said to me, "Is your old squad leader's heirloom kitchen knife still there?" I'll take a look! ”
I saw that her expression was serious, and it was obvious that she had found some great clue, so I quickly took out the box containing the treasure knife and handed her the kitchen knife.
Momiji took the kitchen knife tremblingly, and then carefully examined the spine of the kitchen knife, and she naturally focused her eyes on the words "Wanli Recent Heritage" and the vague pattern below.
Then, Xian Hongye's eyes widened and said to me: "The secret on this Zhao family's kitchen knife has fallen!" ”
