Chapter 8: Killing the Employer
"Magnolia flowers bloom for two seasons, one season welcomes spring, one season is sad autumn, the mortal world is called ghost flowers, and the Tao is déjà vu is reunion."
- "Notes of the Good Jade Master"
The first thing Lu Xiaoqi did when he returned to the Shanyu family was to contact Wan Qianqian.
Her voice on the phone was still gentle and firm, and she couldn't hear any emotion, but it came very quickly.
She came alone, wearing a navy blue silk dark flower cheongsam, small high heels, and a string of shiny large Australian white sea pearls on her chest.
Lu Xiaoqi looked her up and down, and said with a smile: "Wan Niangzi is so well maintained, last time your husband was here, I was not embarrassed to praise you, sure enough, the years have never defeated the beauty!" Look at this complexion, the lady will live a long life! ”
Wan Qianqian has long known that this scoundrel loves money, and seeing that Lu Xiaoqi is extremely flattering, she said coldly: "Boss Lu has worked hard this time, you say, the bracelet has really been repaired?" …… What about my sister? ”
Lu Xiaoqi snapped his fingers: "This is for the lady!" ”
He turned around, suddenly turned back to stare at her and asked slowly, "Actually, after so many years, why do you suddenly remember to look for her?" ”
Lu Xiaoqi thought that maybe she would say some high-sounding guilty words, but she only heard her say:
"Can you show me the bracelet first?"
When Lu Xiaoqi heard this, he relaxed and stared at her with a bright smile:
"As you wish!"
Two items were immediately retrieved: a bracelet brocade box and an ash jar. Qi Qi was placed in front of her.
Wan Qianqian opened the bracelet box with a pair of plain hands, took out the bracelet, looked through it carefully, and was very surprised:
"It was great! You...... How was it fixed? My sister she ...... Where is the peace buckle? ”
"The bracelet is good, and the peace buckle is cracked, since it is her thing, it is naturally in her ashes, and the lady can check it. But...... You really don't want to ask what's going on? Lu Xiaoqi did not forgive.
Wan Qianqian shook her head, she didn't intend to touch the jar, and spoke softly and leisurely:
"Boss Lu, your methods are clever, it must be a trade secret, I don't know about it, since that's the case, this is your reward. Thank you. ”
She took out a brown paper bag from her bag and handed it over, looking at Lu Xiaoqi condescendingly, Lu Xiaoqi quickly took it, opened it and saw that it was 100,000.
Wan Qianqian got up and was about to pack up and leave, but Lu Xiaoqi stopped her:
"Lady, it's not enough!"
Wan Qianqian turned her head and frowned: "100,000 is not enough?" All the things in your building don't add up to that much, do they? ”
Lu Xiaoqi waved his hands straight: "Misunderstanding!" Misunderstand! I mean, the lady gave so much money, how could I not serve home? He quickly picked up the bracelet and put it in front of Wan Qianqian's eyes: "Xiaosheng is waiting for you to put it on!" ”
The air slammed!
The sycamore swaying, the calm Qingtong Lane, the quiet Shanyu family room, the beautiful woman's apricot eyes widened, stunned and frozen, unable to move, unable to speak.
The door slammed shut!
A cat napping at the door of Shanyu's family was frightened, stared at it, and ran away with a scream.
Inside the door, the woman only had hearing at this time, and Lu Xiaoqi's deafening voice was in her ears:
"You don't care about Wan Sisi! All you want is this bracelet, because it is He Wenqing's love testimony! ”
The woman sensed that the bracelet was on her hand, like a thousand thorns, and it was all gone! Behind the taste of a thousand knives and a long time, there is a sonorous voice that gradually fades away in consciousness:
"Listen up! We are good jade masters, and we never trade with people, only with jade spirits! In the bracelet is the spirit of Wan Sisi, she repaired the bracelet, but it is useless, and I will pay you back your money; Give your life back to Wan Sisi! ”
Suddenly the wind was quiet.
A magnolia outside the window quietly broke free from the shackles of the calyx, unscrewed the white buds, and bloomed the first flower of early autumn, shaking on the branches, pure as a free white dove.
There were few pedestrians in Qingtong Lane, and someone saw a thin young man pushing open the window, his bright eyes with a mellow smile, looking at the color outside the window, the smug brilliance, people couldn't help but stop and look at him twice.
At some point, it started to drizzle.
The air was getting cooler, He Wenqing hurriedly came over with an umbrella to give his beloved wife a coat, and when he walked to the mouth of the alley, he forgot which side of the Shanyu family was on, and he was looking left and right, and suddenly heard his wife's voice: "Wenqing!" ”
Lao He turned around, was in a trance, and for a moment seemed to see a tree of wisteria flowers blooming, and in the purple water vapor, Wan Qianqian, who came out of the navy blue cheongsam, smiled brightly.
Rubbing his eyes, Lao He saw clearly, there were no wisteria flowers, but there was a magnolia flower that bloomed in early spring and March, and it was in its second season, Wan Qianqian was standing slim under the tree at the moment, holding a porcelain jar in her hand.
When I got closer, I heard her whisper softly: "Wenqing, I'm afraid you won't find me!" ”
Lao He smiled: "I'm old, I'm old, my eyes are dizzy, I remember the road, and I won't next time." ”
Wan Qianqian snuggled under the umbrella and hugged him tightly: "The flowers are windy and rainy." ”
Lao He saw that the wind and rain were getting stronger, and he also tightly wrapped her in the umbrella, afraid that she would get wet, but when he saw that there seemed to be water droplets on her face, he felt that she was still wet, and felt a little guilty: "This poem is not good, and the next sentence is Life is parting." Don't read it later. ”
He looked at the jar in his beloved wife's hand, and couldn't bear it: "You brought Sisi back?"
The wife nodded: "Sisi is back." ”
He Wenqing hummed and didn't say anything, only sighed to express his feelings.
In the wind and rain behind him, it seemed that he heard Boss Lu's voice: "Wan Niangzi, do it and cherish it!" Don't come again! ”
Lao He lowered his head and asked her, "What did Boss Lu say?" ”
Wan Qianqian pursed her lips and smiled: "He told me to stop smoking." I just took one of his cigarettes out of curiosity and looked at it, and he was stingy too. I'm definitely not going to smoke. ”
He Wenqing was amused by his wife's little girlish tone, looked at the bracelet on her wrist, and couldn't help but praise: "This bracelet has really been restored, it's so good!" You never wear it, in fact, only you are the most worthy of it, and no one else is worthy of it. ”
Wan Qianqian laughed heartily when she heard this.
He Wenqing is naturally an ordinary person, he can't hear the roaring and shouting of the wicked woman trapped in the bracelet, he only feels that the people around him are still bright at this time, just like the night when he was eighteen years old, the optimism of his words, and the gentleness of the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, all made his heart break.
Behind him, only Lu Xiaoqi could hear his own words:
"Wan Qianqian, just soberly, watching them get along with each other, let's be happy!"
The rain on the eaves is dripping, and on the bluestone pavement, it flows through the years.
Seeing the figure of Wan Sisi and his wife go away with the wind and rain, Lu Xiaoqi returned to the empty store with peace of mind, sat down, his stomach rumbled, he smiled bitterly, he confiscated the money, is it a bit hypocritical.
How could he gain nothing, the power of the jade spirit was very strong, he absorbed a part of it, and left half of it to bind Wan Qianqian in the bracelet, it was easy.
At this time, it was supposed to be a time to rest, and he was running back and forth, but he was full of energy and not tired, so he randomly pulled some books from the shelves to read.
The book was also pirated, some ink had fallen off, flipping through it indiscriminately, Lu Xiaoqi was so hungry that he slapped the pages on the counter, planning to go out to find food.
He got up, paused, and slowly turned back to the page.
There is nothing unusual about the book, a typical pirated pornographic novel, an old driver's drill manual, just a blank space, because of the drop of ink, printed with one of his handprint fingerprints.
Lu Xiaoqi's eyes widened.
The good jade master is born without fingerprints!
At the same time, the sky was full of strange wind and clouds, and thunder was loud.
Lu Xiaoqi only felt a strong heartache!
--------
The good jade master does not have fingerprints, which can be used as a way to identify the door.
This is what the old man personally told Lu Xiaoqi when he was young, and repeatedly warned him to pay attention to hiding his identity, but if anyone with strange abilities is made public, he will definitely hurt others and himself. Regarding himself, Lu Xiaoqi will never be mistaken.
He is a descendant of the good jade master, how can there be a fingerprint? What is the explanation for this sudden pain in the heart?
Fortunately, the pain only lasted for a few tens of seconds, and when it eased, Lu Xiaoqi slowly got up from the ground and looked at the fingerprint carefully.
At a glance, it can be concluded that the texture of this fingerprint is not similar to that of ordinary people, it is symmetrical, like a strange labyrinth, or a brocade pattern.
Lu Xiaoqi, who had never been dazzled, stared at the lines, a little dizzy, and some fragments quickly flashed in his mind: countless people who were tightly wrapped and didn't even show their eyes were thrown into a dusty war. It was like an ancient battlefield full of powerful hand-to-hand combat, full of swords, guns, and halberds.
There are only so many pictures, and as for the emotions, Lu Xiaoqi didn't feel it at all.
Who does such a long memory belong to?
Lu Xiaoqi was puzzled, he would only have such feelings when he received the jade spirit, and it must be when the jade spirit did not reject him and took the initiative to show him his memory.
For example, when he touched Lao Hou's antique buckle, although he knew that it was by no means a good thing, he couldn't capture any information, if it wasn't for the fact that Lao Hou, who was the master, was too wary of him, and Yu Ling intended to protect him, then it must be that Yu was already manipulated.
His heart moved: "Could it be that Wan Sisi's heirloom jade has had other obsessive owners?" Because it is too old, it is only now that the memory is displayed. ”
That antique jade spirit is strong enough to bind the soul, absorb half of its power into a contract, and exchange it for a new body of Wan Sisi, this business is not a loss, but-
Lu Xiaoqi looked down at his right thumb, what does the appearance of this fingerprint mean to him?
"Powerful Jade Spirit ......" Lu Xiaoqi touched his belly and smiled with relief, he never knew what fear was.
He said to the fingerprint:
"In that case, wait for the master to eat a full meal, collect all the fingerprints, and summon the dragon! Lao Tzu is so perverted, is he surprised, is he surprised? ”
It doesn't really matter if there is a dragon or not, but this kind of thing makes him feel very interesting, and his originally lazy life has suddenly become very purposeful.
The word "interested", except for appearing in the quilt every morning, is Lu Xiaoqi's mood at this moment.
He strode out the door and into the drizzle.
