Chapter 2: The Shadow of the Spirit
Zhao Haipeng picked up his coat and found the phone from his jacket pocket. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
He frowned at the number on the screen, and walked out of the kitchen.
In my kitchen in Luweiju, because of the renovation of the basement, the mobile phone signal comes and goes, and sometimes there are noises, so whoever answers the phone has to run out to answer it.
We know how to avoid suspicion, after Zhao Haipeng went out, I couldn't follow, so I had nothing to do, so I walked around the kitchen in a circle.
After walking for a while, I focused my attention again on my kitchen knife, Takeshi.
To be honest, I haven't really appreciated her since I brought this little thing back, because I'm as busy as my third grandson every day, and I really don't have much time to think about anything else.
Therefore, except for the fifteenth day of the first month, when he had "special requirements" with the sword spirit, I didn't even touch him, after all, the hotel got up at five o'clock every day, and he could only rest at ten o'clock.
With these regrets, I walked into Xiaozhu Shi, gently stroked her slightly metallic blade with my hand, and felt the warmth and coolness at the same time, I also saw the reflection of Zhu Shi's blade...... How can there be a vague shadow of a woman?
For a moment, I was surprised.
Then I rubbed my eyes and looked carefully at the body of Xiaozhushi's knife.
The kitchen knife of more than 700 years has grown very unusually, and its blade has been worn out excessively, showing a slightly concave arc-like shape, except for the part of the blade, it is obviously not so shiny.
But I don't know why, I suddenly felt that this bamboo poem seemed to be a little brighter than in the past, and the original dark knife body could actually reflect the light?
Not only was it reflective, but I could also see the reflection of the blade in its dim light...... An image of a woman?
I don't dare to be too sure if it is a woman, because at this time I can only see a hazy green, the green is concave and convex, as if it is the body of a young woman, and where the reflection of the blade is relatively clear, I can still see the hem like a cheongsam.
It was a terrifying discovery. Following this shadow, I hurriedly turned back, but I could not see anything.
Apart from...... A vague "trace".
It was the "vinegar marks" of six people buried in the load-bearing wall of the basement of my hotel.
Zhao Haipeng used vinegar paste to paint the walls of our basement and saw that there were six people buried in the walls of our hotel.
Later, I heard from the shopkeeper Tong next door that these six were probably the aunts and wives of a rich landlord called "Lord Eagle".
And the ghost shadow in front of me seemed to further verify the idea in my heart.
This Hui family's kitchen knife is the "nest" of the ghost girl Zhu Shi, and what it reflects is what Zhu Shi sees in his eyes. Or, like the fantasies I've seen before, some kind of "warning" of the past?
But why can I see this now? Could it be that after she killed Cai Okra's stiff head, she gained some special "ability" or "growth"? Can she reflect the hell?
In surprise, I stared at the knife carefully, and I didn't know if it was the effect of psychology or the change of reality, in short, the blurred image on the knife seemed to be getting clearer and clearer.
Gradually, the green blurred reflection seemed to have a certain human form, and even I saw a pair of apricot eyes in the haze, staring at me through the reflection of the blade...... See?
This is so interesting, but just when we wanted to continue to study the knowledge in the shadow of the knife, Zhao Haipeng suddenly opened the door and walked in.
He shouted behind me: "Third child, don't stare at the sword spirit, we have a meal at noon, let's leave." ”
Zhao Haipeng's words suddenly made me feel like I was in the head, and I suddenly took my eyes and spirit back from the "world" of the knife.
Then I rubbed my eyes and found that the knife was ...... Nothing is gone.
In surprise, I turned my head and looked at Lao Zhao in confusion: "Who invited guests to dinner?
Zhao Haipeng waved his mobile phone and said: "It's still a banquet in Wufeng Tower, and it's the second girl of the Hui family who invites us, the Hui heir." ”
"What?" I was stunned, then shook my head and said, "If we don't go, will we succeed?"
Since yesterday in my hospital for Hui Weiben Hui old man went to the "fungus", this Hui family has become a piece of heart disease in my heart. The scars on my hands from the fight with the "Zombie Nurse" haven't dried yet, so how did they find us again?
Are you bent on taking us out of the water?!
I didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the Hui family, so my face was very embarrassed, and Zhao Haipeng understood what I meant, so he also said to me: "I know you don't want to go, but there is a reason, you have to go." ”
"What?" I said reluctantly.
Zhao Haipeng waved the phone and said, "Sister Zhibai said on the phone, you went, so that she could understand the accounts on the contract between you and Hui Siqi." ”
"100,000 dollars?" I excited.
"Ready at the table!"
As soon as I heard this, I immediately patted my thigh and said, "Brother Zhao, let's go immediately, the place is still Wufeng Tower, right!
"Didn't you just want to go?" said Lao Zhao with a smile.
"This ......," I snorted, and then quickly changed the channel: "...... I feel that sometimes it's aggrieved to cook for others, and occasionally it's very good to be someone else's guest......"
In this way, while thinking about how to distribute the Hui family's money, I drove the car, and along the way, I took the three of us to Wufeng Tower again without danger. Prepare a banquet to thank Hui Siji.
Entering the door, indicating the intention of coming, the waiter at the front desk received everyone very warmly.
After a phone call from the waiter, our wealthy and amiable Sister He walked down from the elevator.
This time He Zhibai is not the same as last night's solemn face, I look at her face and understand that this old man Hui must have improved a lot.
"Sister Zhibai!" Zhao Shuihe waved at He Zhibai from afar: "We were tired last night, you can make something good, let me make up for it." ”
"Don't worry!" He Zhibai nodded at Zhao Shuihe and said: "Today there are tea dumplings and soft long fish, I asked someone to buy them from Yangzhou Wenchang Pavilion, and I will come immediately." ”
Zhao Shuihe was shocked when he heard this: "How do you know that I love to eat tea dumplings and long fish?
He Zhibai smiled implicitly, then walked over, touched Xiao Nizi's head and said, "I don't know, I won't ask? Besides, who doesn't know that Zhao Dahe is the famous 'broken mouth' in Huaiyang's 'Su Zizuo'?"
Zhao Shuihe stuck out his tongue, which was a tacit acquiescence.
In this way, everyone talked and laughed, and followed He Zhibai into the elevator.
During this period, Sister He probably talked about the Hui family's affairs in the hospital after we left.
She told us that because of the vicious incident in which a nurse attacked me in the hospital, the Hui family also felt unsafe, so she transported the old man Hui, who had just regained consciousness, to a safer state overnight in Texas for treatment.
Subsequently, Hui Siqi asked He Zhibai to come back and specify these banquets for us, and she also said that after finishing the old man's settlement before noon, she must come over to thank me personally, and settle the contract with me by the way, so that we must not leave in a hurry.
After Sister He said this, the elevator door opened, and she still took us to the private room called "auspicious" on the third floor.
When I opened the door and went in, I found that the cold dishes on the table had been served, and there were not only cold dishes in the banquet, but there was also a host sitting in advance?
The appearance of that person surprised us, Zhao Haipeng looked at the person, and was stunned: "You are here too?"
