121. One night at the guest house
Xiao Liang is a girl's house after all, so it is indeed not safe for her to sleep in a room where she can't lock a window at night, and someone may come in at any time.
I thought about it for a while and said, "That's it, you wait a while, I'll go downstairs and talk to the front desk if I can change your room." ”
Xiao Liang nodded lightly and said, "I'm in trouble." ”
I pulled on my slippers and went downstairs, and when I came to the first floor, I saw the aunt at the front desk of the guest house sitting on a chair knitting a sweater.
When he saw me coming, he smiled and asked, "Young man, what's the matter?" Are you looking for a little sister? ”
I quickly shook my head: "No, we are serious people, what are we looking for." That's right, the window of my friend's room can't be locked, she is a girl's house, she doesn't dare to sleep at night, can you help change the room? ”
When the aunt heard this, she was embarrassed: "Ouch, this is a bit troublesome, our guest house only has a few rooms, and there are people living at night, so I can't change it." ”
Speaking of this, she rolled her eyes and came up with a solution, saying, "If I'm not mistaken, didn't you book two rooms?" The little girl didn't dare to live in a room where the windows couldn't be locked, so let those two old men go to live! You say, don't you? ”
I thought about it, this is indeed a method, your aunt is still your aunt.
So I turned around and went back to the second floor.
As soon as I entered the house, Xiao Liang asked me, "How is it?" Can you change the room? ”
I shook my head and said, "There are no empty rooms in the guest house." ”
"What can I do then......" Xiao Liang looked embarrassed.
I said, "Okay, I'm going to call Uncle Mei and Officer Jiang now, and you go and sleep in our room, where the windows can be locked." ”
When Xiao Liang heard this, he hurriedly stopped me and said, "Don't, they are all asleep, and it's not appropriate to wake up." Besides, they've slept in that bed, and I'm ...... I slept awkwardly. ”
I smiled and asked, "What?" Do you still have a habit of cleanliness? ”
Xiao Liang blushed and said, "Girls will be a little clean." ”
When she said that, I didn't know what to do.
I asked her, "What then?" Tomorrow you have to go to Longtan Tiger's Den, you can't go all night without sleeping, right? ”
Xiao Liang didn't know if he had an idea or a temporary solution, he lowered his head and raised his eyes to look at me, pinched the corners of his clothes with his fingers, and said a little twisted: "Otherwise, you sleep with me tonight and be my bodyguard." Anyway, there are two beds in the private room, just one for you and one for me, and you don't have to go to sleep on the sofa next door. ”
As soon as I heard it, it was indeed a good idea, so I agreed on the spot without thinking about it.
I said okay, I was worried that the sofa was too short, and both feet had to hang in the air.
I really didn't think about anything else at the time, but if I had a little crooked thoughts about Xiao Liang, I definitely wouldn't have agreed so simply.
Again, the two of us have pretended to be husband and wife on the banks of the Duck River before, and I have accompanied Xiaoliang to sleep at night, so this is not the first time.
I pointed to the bed by the window and said, "I'll sleep outside, you sleep inside, and if any hooligan crawls in the middle of the night, let him take advantage of me first, and you can just take the opportunity to escape." ”
When Xiao Liang heard this, he leaned back and smiled and complained: "Stinky beauty, what hooligan will take advantage of you!" ”
I stretched, immediately took off my shoes and lay down on the bed, and said with a smile: "The bed is still comfortable, much more comfortable than the sofa." Xiao Liang, you should also go to sleep quickly, tomorrow you will go to the dead man's pit to fight the dragon. ”
Xiao Liang also took off his shoes and went to bed, sat cross-legged on the bed facing me, and said with a smile: "Chen Rongsheng, you shouldn't really believe Lao Huang's words, right?" Do you believe that there really is a dragon in the pit of the dead? ”
I shook my head and said, "I'm not stupid, how can I believe this kind of scaring child?" However, there must be some mystery in the dead man's pit that has caused so many strange things over the years. ”
Xiao Liang nodded: "Well, you said when you were having dinner with Uncle Mei, there must be living water under this dead man's pit, and it is not possible to connect the underground river." ”
"It's also possible that it leads directly to the ancient tomb." I speculated, "Also, when I went to the Dead Man's Grave just now, don't you think this Dead Man's Pit looks like a pond dug out by hand?" ”
"It's kind of like that." Xiao Liang agreed, "It's square, it doesn't look like it's naturally formed at all." How? Do you think this pond has something to do with Liu Bowen? ”
I said, "The book says that the so-called slaying of the dragon vein is to change the pattern of feng shui. Liu Bowen excavated a pond here, is it equivalent to changing the pattern of feng shui? ”
"If so, then this feng shui pattern is too easy to change, right?" Xiao Liang questioned, "Such a small pond is enough to change the pattern?" I don't think it's likely. ”
"Who knows."
Chatting and chatting, I was a little sleepy, yawned, and said to Xiao Liang,
"I'm so sleepy, I can't open my eyes, I'll sleep first, good night."
"Well, sleep, sleep, good night."
Xiao Liang replied to me softly, and after speaking, he also lay down on the bed, with his long legs between the quilt, lying on his side towards me.
I almost fell asleep on the pillow, and the next day I heard Xiaoliang say that I was still snoring at night, so noisy that she didn't sleep well all night.
But she can't blame me, after all, she personally invited me over, hehe.
It was already past seven o'clock when I opened my eyes in the morning, and when I got up, the trabeculae were all washed.
I washed my face in her room and tiptoed back to the next door.
At this time, Jiang Yongguang and Uncle Mei had already woken up, and when they saw me coming back from outside, they hurriedly asked me where I went? What time did they get up, why did they disappear as soon as they opened their eyes?
I didn't dare to say that I slept next door at night, it's not that I'm thin-skinned, the key is to take care of Xiaoliang's reputation.
She is a girl's house, and if it is known that she slept with me all night, she will inevitably be gossiped.
I said I woke up early today and went out for a morning run.
After listening to this, Jiang Yongguang glanced at a pair of shoes on my feet and teased: "Good guy, you wear slippers for a morning jog, you have a lot of personality." ”
I was suddenly told in a cold sweat, knowing that it was difficult to deceive him, an experienced criminal investigator, but fortunately, he didn't break it, and Uncle Mei didn't ask about it, so the matter was fooled.
After everyone finished washing, we set off, Jiang Yongguang knocked on the door next door, and Xiao Liang immediately greeted him.
"Did you sleep well last night?" Jiang Yongguang asked with a smile.
Xiao Liang actually didn't sleep well, because I kept snoring and noisy until she was noisy, and her eyes were still a little dark.
Still, she smiled and said, "I slept well." ”
After listening to this, Jiang Yongguang said with deep meaning: "Yes." ”
I don't know if I'm thinking too much, I always feel like he's guessed something, and he's thinking crookedly.
After a quick breakfast, we set off for the grave, and on the way, Jiang Yongguang used his contacts to get in touch with the local authorities and told them that we were going to investigate the pond.
After arriving at the scene, I saw that the dead man's pit was calm and calm, and it didn't look like there was any turmoil at all, which was not at all as exaggerated as Lao Huang said.
Xiao Liang asked Jiang Yongguang: "How do we investigate?" ”
Jiang Yongguang looked at Uncle Mei and me and said, "I have to ask these two experts about water-related questions. ”
I spread my hands and replied, "How else can I investigate?" I'll go into the water for a walk. ”
