Until August: Yellow acacia flowers. Cinnamon is fragrant. Broken intestines. White apples open. Money falls at night. Lilac purple.

The weather is getting cooler.

Luo Jian hadn't appeared at the East Gate for seven days, and the cat had disappeared from Biancheng.

People in the vicinity are still living as usual, and the East Gate is still free to enter and exit. When the time comes, it is natural that someone will open and close the city gates.

It doesn't seem like anyone cares if there's one person missing, or maybe there's one cat missing. I'm just passing by and just looking around.

On the eighth day, on the wall of the east gate, a figure finally appeared, but it was an unfamiliar face.

I heard Yunsheng say that in the past few days, Xuan Yuhui has come to look for me several times. I'm either wandering around or I'm out and about.

I don't know why I don't want to see him.

Actually, I could have been very generous with him as a friend, but what about friends? I don't know. Maybe I don't have any friends until I go down the mountain.

I also knew in my heart that I should have some unknown and inextricable connection with him. If I really have a deep relationship with him, it will be much easier for me to know something from him one day.

I don't want to admit it, but I know that I am afraid in my heart, afraid of being close to him, and afraid of knowing the truth, and this fear comes from inexplicable.

Every time I pass by the courtyard and look at the wall, I feel indescribable.

Night falls.

There was a delicate box on the table top in the study, and Yun Sheng said that this was sent by Young Master Xuan. I opened it and took a look, and there was a waist card similar to a Biancheng Pass lying inside, with some bright gold leaves hidden on it.

vulgar, but vulgar to the extreme is elegant.

I smiled, just as my money was running out, so I was supposed to treat it as medical expenses.

Idle and bored, I opened a book called "Baicaolu", the weather was hot and panicked, someone knocked on the door, I thought it was the wind groaning, so I said "En".

The door "squeaked" open, and a figure walked in, lighting incense for me to repel mosquitoes. I felt a little dry mouth, but I found that the tea was cold, and I muttered in my heart, since the wind was here, I didn't remember to make a pot of tea, and I just wanted to explain, but when I looked up, it was a mullion leaf.

Xu is more and more lazy cultivation after going down the mountain, and my nose is really getting more and more ineffective. Or maybe it's because the mullions have no spiritual power, and I'm so fascinated by reading that I didn't distinguish them for a while.

I didn't talk to her much after that day, and I didn't talk to her much. Seeing her this time, I vaguely felt that she seemed to have a sad face.

I closed the book and asked, "Why are you here, when the wind called you?"

"Back to the master, yes, it was the mullion that saw that there were more mosquitoes, so he came in without permission and added incense, and asked the master not to blame. ”

Looking at her timid appearance, I thought it was my face that scared her, and said softly: "You are also a good intention, what's not to blame." ”

She didn't feel relieved at all, and she still said in the same tone: "Thank you, master." ”

I can't help but wonder if I'm really that horrible.

In order to lighten the mood, I explained, "We haven't signed any deed of sale, and even if there is, I can pay it back to you, you don't have to." ”

"No, it's Lingye who is willing to do it, and he is willing to follow his master all his life. ”

I opened the folding fan that I had set aside, fanned it, and was silent.

I really didn't want to bring you back and take you with me for the rest of my life, and the mountains are not something you can get used to.

I asked, "Would you like to let you live in Biancheng all the time?"

It is estimated that she thought that I would always stay in Biancheng, and almost without hesitation returned: "Lingye is naturally willing." ”

I was helpless and smiled: "That's it, you go down." ”

When she went out and closed the door, I was lying on my stomach on the table.

When I saw Feng Yin yesterday, I realized that Feng Yin had not taken the medicine I gave her, for unknown reasons.

Even though I gave her medicine to heal her wounds, she still remembers that I destroyed her throat with my own hands.

Early the next morning, someone came to the house, it was Yingqiu.

The door of the study was slammed open, and she strode in, shouting as she went, "Hanqing, where are you!"

My hand holding the pen slipped a little, and the word was ruined.

Turning back to Shenyingqiu, he was already close to his eyes, and his two arms were propped up on the table: "Hanqing!

At this time, Feng Yin hurriedly followed, and at first glance, no one stopped him. But at this point, when I gave her a look, she withdrew.

Since the words were ruined, I simply crumpled the rice paper into a ball and threw it aside.

"What's so urgent, I don't want any image?"

Ying Qiu propped up his waist and took a breath: "That fat man! I can't find anyone! My brother and I rushed to Fenglingdu as fast as possible, and we rushed to Fenglingdu as fast as possible, and squatted at the gate of Longwei Fort for a day, but the dead fat man didn't appear, so I climbed over the wall and went in to take a look, and as a result, I didn't see the dead fat man in the entire Longwei Villa! My brother and I didn't believe in evil, so we caught two small people and asked them, but we got the news that the dead fat man had disappeared for several days!"

I beckoned her to sit down and replied, "Maybe your brother and sister are too fierce and scare people away." ”

Yingqiu raised her eyebrows: "I didn't expect that even you would tease people." ”

I laughed miserably: "If you run away, you can find it again, what are you going to do in such a hurry." ”

"It's not. Actually, we heard about another incident in Longwei Fort, so I hurried to tell you that I was about to be!"

"What's the matter?"

"In the past month of Fenglingdu, there have always been people who have disappeared inexplicably, no one alive, no corpse dead. ”

"How?"

"At first, no one took it seriously, and then I realized that something wasn't quite right. Inside the Dragon Polder Fort alone, several people were missing. ”

"Didn't that fat man take people away and hide?"

"No, it looks like it disappeared at a different time. ”

"The first person to disappear, but from Longwei Castle?"

"Well... Because of this incident, my brother also went to investigate. I got the news that the first person to disappear was not from Longweibao. But...... Before Longwei Fort, there was a person who died unexpectedly, originally the people in the rivers and lakes died in the sky, but that person died strangely, there were no other wounds on the body, only... Only the brain has been hollowed out. ”

I thought about it for a moment and replied, "Then you just said that you were very angry, what do you mean?"

Ying Qiu held a face and sighed: "Alas. You see, so many people have disappeared, and not one of them has come back. I'm worried, this dead fat man is the same as these disappeared people, he won't come back, and I don't know if he is dead or not, so how can I get this anger, or let his brain be hollowed out, this is called retribution. ”
