Chapter 130
Of course Jiang Shui's hint was not that simple. The simple one was Li Zhuiyuan.
Because in life, there are very few people and things that Li Zhuiyuan really cares about.
This is his shortcoming. It is difficult for him to trigger cause and effect, so he needs Tan Wenbin and others to help him get in touch.
This is also his advantage. He can examine these clues from a third-party perspective, summarize and explore the rules.
However, the Professor Zhu in front of him is a special case.
Li Zhuiyuan himself had long discovered that he was more accepting and tolerant of certain groups of people.
Professor Zhu was recognized by Li Zhuiyuan, and the young man was willing to contact him.
Others have to investigate dozens, hundreds or even more causal clues every day. The number of young people here is extremely limited. Recently, I finally accepted this clue, but something went wrong with it.
Unless the water droplets of the river did not splash on him, but if it splashed a little on him, even just one drop, then from Li Zhuiyuan's perspective,
Professor Zhu... is already soaked to the skin.
"Then let's leave now?"
"Okay."
"Code of Conduct for Walking on the River":
1: When clues of cause and effect appear, the early risk coefficient will generally be relatively low.
Two: New causal clues need to be cared for, follow its route, and try not to damage its development as much as possible, in order to obtain more information.
Therefore, Li Zhuiyuan did not let Professor Zhu wait for a while, and then called a companion to go with him.
They just invited me, and their wife just wanted to see me when she was seriously ill. If I brought another person there, the original development route might change.
The family home where Professor Zhu lives is not on campus, but in a community for senior workers outside the campus.
The environment of the community is good. There is an artificial river in front. Professor Zhu's home is on the first floor of the building facing the river.
The small courtyard on the first floor is full of flowers, and it can be seen that they have been carefully cut and tended.
Opening the door and walking into the house, there was a smell of Chinese medicine, mixed with a touch of orchid. It wasn't very smelly, but compared to ordinary families with patients, the smell was really good.
"Xiaoyuan, can I get you a drink?"
"Professor, I just want to drink water."
"Drink water? Okay."
Professor Zhu poured a cup of tea for Li Zhuiyuan. When it was delivered, Li Zhuiyuan stood up from the sofa and took it with both hands.
Afterwards, Professor Zhu pointed to the bedroom and expressed his apologies to Li Zhuiyuan. He knocked gently on the door and called twice. After receiving a weak response from inside, he opened the door and walked in.
Sitting on the sofa, Li Zhuiyuan looked at the living room environment.
There are many books in the living room. They are not just for decoration. Each stack of books is placed in a position that is convenient for people to read.
There is an easel in the corner. The easel is covered with a layer of white cloth. There are drawing papers piled on both sides, including sketches and oil paintings.
The room is not big, and there are a lot of things in it, making it a bit cramped, but the overall atmosphere is very comfortable.
On the way here, Professor Zhu and Li Zhuiyuan briefly introduced the situation at home. Due to the wife's health, the old couple did not have children, and they have supported each other until now.
Li Zhuiyuan put down his teacup and leaned back on the sofa. He felt something falling on one side and stretched out his hand to lift it up. It was a photo frame.
The photo frame was originally wrapped in oil paper, but it had been opened. However, when it was placed, it was deliberately placed with the opening facing inward, as if it did not want people to see it.
When it fell down, most of the photo frame inside slid out.
The photo frame is completely black, with Hades stripes carved on the edge. Combined with the black and white photo in the middle, it can be seen that this is a posthumous photo.
The woman inside is older, but her eyebrows are still soft, and even the dense wrinkles on her face cannot hide her dignity.
This should be a posthumous photo taken in advance after knowing that I was not in good health.
Many elderly people do this, firstly, to be prepared and to prevent their family members from being in a hurry after they pass away; secondly, the remains of people who pass away due to illness are generally not very good-looking, so it is necessary to take pictures in advance while they are still in good condition, so as to give themselves a good memory when they are gone. Leave some dignity at the funeral.
It's the pattern on this photo frame... that looks a bit too professional.
Not only is it a simple resemblance, when you rub it with your fingertips, you can clearly feel the fine internal bifurcation under each underworld pattern. This is a standard inscription of the Earthly Scripture.
Anyone with this skill can customize the ancestral tablet for Grandma Liu at home.
In other words, the handmade cost of this photo frame is very expensive, and sometimes it is not a matter of price, but also of favors.
In addition, there is another detail. I don’t know if it’s the photographer or the makeup artist who is better. The old lady in this black and white posthumous photo actually gives people a delicate and rosy look.
This is a very strange contrast, because it is impossible to show this effect.
Li Zhuiyuan leaned sideways to see if there was anything special about the picture frame mirror. After inspection, he found nothing unusual.
But when I re-examined this photo, there seemed to be slight changes. She seemed to have moved, and the perspective of the characters in it seemed to have shifted.
Li Zhuiyuan took out a "test paper" he drew from his pocket and pasted it on, but there was no reaction on the paper.
This is really weird. Is it really my illusion?
Although he came here just to find information and clues, the young man really didn't expect that he would be stuck when he touched a portrait when he first entered here.
Even he himself is caught in the triangle relationship between science, art or metaphysics, and he is not sure.
The footsteps of two people came from the bedroom. Li Zhuiyuan put the portrait back and put it behind him, preparing to let it fall down again when he got up later so he could take the opportunity to ask.
Professor Zhu helped his wife out.
The old couple have the same surname, Zhu.
Mrs. Zhu should have simply groomed herself after being aroused before, but her face still showed signs of illness.
She is really in her final years. She may not be old enough yet, but her body is approaching a certain critical point.
"Hello, Grandma Zhu."
Li Zhuiyuan stood up to say hello, but the portrait behind him fell again.
Mrs. Zhu looked at Li Zhuiyuan with a smile, reached out and patted her husband's hand, and said:
"You are right, this child is indeed good-looking and has a bookish quality that makes people like him."
Everyone has their own aesthetics. If you look at the furnishings inside and outside the house, as well as Mrs. Zhu's profession before she retired, you can see her interests and preferences.
However, this is the first time that Li Zhuiyuan has been called bookish.
Come to think of it, those dead and evil people who died in Li Zhuiyuan's hands would not speak out to object to this.
"Child, sit down."
"Okay, Grandma."
When Li Zhuiyuan sat down, he touched the frame of the deceased photo and reached out to sort it out.
Mrs. Zhu did not shy away from this, but proactively asked: "Does the photo look good?"
Professor Zhu stood up and went to clean up the left photo frame. He was a little dissatisfied with his wife asking this to a child, but he just smiled dotingly. He knew that his wife did not like those restrictions.
"It looks good." Li Zhuiyuan handed the photo frame to Professor Zhu and said to Mrs. Zhu, "I think the photo looks better than your real person now."
"Hahaha." Mrs. Zhu covered her mouth and laughed. This time she was no longer reserved, she was really happy.
For other women, she might be unhappy if she looks better in the photo than in real life, but this is the effect that Mrs. Zhu pursues. Being praised and recognized makes her feel at ease.
"Grandma, I'm not in good health, so I just wanted to take better photos, so that even if I'm gone, when Mr. Zhu sits at home and misses me, he won't be too bored looking at my photos."
Professor Zhu echoed: "Yes, yes, it's very beautiful, very beautiful. I don't put it on the altar table at night. I hug it and go to bed."
Grandma Zhu blushed and spat: "Bah, the child is here, what are you talking about?"
Afraid that the topic would disappear, Li Zhuiyuan hurriedly asked: "Where was the photo taken? A photo studio? One of my brothers planned to take artistic photos with his partner, but he didn't know which one to choose."
< br>
Grandma Zhu said: "There is a photo studio at the intersection of Zhengyang Street."
"Oh, okay, I remember."
"Although the boss is young, his skills are excellent and he is very meticulous and responsible." Grandma Zhu added, "The price is not expensive. You can recommend your brother to try it with his partner."
< br>
"Then this photo frame is also provided in the photo studio?"
"Of course, this photo frame is exquisite, I like the stripes very much, and the price is not expensive, but your brother will definitely not choose this one. There are other styles."
A re-employed professor and a retired professor naturally have no worries about food and drink, but they have nothing to do with wealth. It is difficult for them to earn extra money in their majors.
The price of something that makes them feel cheap will definitely not be high.
If expensive things are sold at bargain prices, there is something wrong with the photo studio.
Next, Grandma Zhu asked Li Zhuiyuan which books he had read. Of course, Li Zhuiyuan would not expose Wei Zhengdao.
After reading some books based on the old man's preferences, Grandma Zhu also asked a few questions, which Li Zhuiyuan answered.
Grandma Zhu was pleasantly surprised and motioned to Li Zhuiyuan to follow her into the study, and then studied the boy's calligraphy and paintings.
Professor Zhu opened the door and said: "Lunch is ready, how are you doing?"
Grandma Zhu smiled bitterly and said: "I wanted to give my child some advice, but this child's calligraphy and painting skills are higher than mine. If it weren't for my poor health and lack of energy now, I would have wanted to worship this child as my teacher."
Li Zhuiyuan was good at calligraphy. When he was very young, Li Lan was working in the study. The floor was filled with rubbing inscriptions, and he would climb on them.
As for painting, I learned it from Ali.
The boy is proficient in calligraphy and painting, but far from the level of a master. However, Grandma Zhu also has a wide range of hobbies. She knows everything but is loose in everything, which reflects the boy's professionalism.
Li Zhuiyuan helped Grandma Zhu leave the study and sat down to eat.
Two vegetarian dishes, one meat dish and one soup. The dishes are simple and the taste is bland.
Grandma Zhu took a few bites, drank half a bowl of soup, and put down her chopsticks.
Professor Zhu warmly greeted Li Zhuiyuan to continue eating.
After the meal, Grandma Zhu motioned to Li Zhuiyuan to help her into the bedroom. Under the bookcase in the bedroom, she took a set of hardcover books as a gift to Li Zhuiyuan.
Although it is not an antique, it is still valuable. For ordinary people, this is already a generous gift.
Li Zhuiyuan accepted it and thanked him seriously.
Grandma Zhu was very happy and held Li Zhuiyuan's hand and talked for a while.
Because he had to hurry up and go to the photo studio to take a look, Li Zhuiyuan made an excuse by saying that he had classes in the afternoon and had to go back to school.
This stunned Grandma Zhu, and she hurriedly called Professor Zhu and asked, "Is Xiaoyuan a student?"
"Ah?" Professor Zhu was also confused, "He must have gone to school."
"You're confused, that's not what I meant." Grandma Zhu looked at Li Zhuiyuan: "Are you a college student?"
"Well, yes."
Professor Zhu slapped his forehead: "Yes, yes, I have mentioned it a long time ago. The school admitted a child prodigy in advance. Is it you, Xiaoyuan?"
Li Zhuiyuan: “It doesn’t have to be me.”
"Still the top scorer in the college entrance examination?"
"That should be me."
"Haha." Professor Zhu laughed, "I thought you were the child of some faculty member and liked my class, but I didn't expect that you are actually a student of this school."
Grandma Zhu reached out and touched Li Zhuiyuan's face again: "Oh, it turns out he is our champion, no wonder he is so powerful."
After bidding farewell to the two elderly people, Li Zhuiyuan left the community and took a taxi to Zhengyang Street.
If Grandma Zhu's physical problems were caused by some evil spirits, she would have helped to solve them, but she was not.
Her end is really coming soon, and the only thing that can save her life is magic.
Wei Zhengdao severely criticized this kind of sorcery in detail, and Li Zhuiyuan inherited the criticism and learned it in detail.
But there is really no need to use this. Throughout the ages, people who have used sorcery to survive have never seen the good results they expected.
The two old men themselves had already looked away and could face the temporary separation of their front and rear feet calmly.
The only thing I can do is probably take Runsheng and Binbin to help during the funeral. After all, they have no heirs.
This is a very mild clue transition. The only clue to Professor Zhu's family is the photo studio.
But here, a timeline problem arises.
It was only because she took the initiative to attend many of Professor Zhu's classes that she attracted his attention. Professor Zhu went home and told his wife that Grandma Zhu was curious to see her. The deterioration of her physical condition accelerated the process.
If I insist on extending it back, then I should have discovered the specialness of this photo at Grandma Zhu's funeral, and then the timeline can be moved back sufficiently.
But this logic does not hold true.
It was because I attended Professor Zhu's class that I was subsequently invited to be a guest. If I hadn't attended Professor Zhu's class... the two of them probably wouldn't have crossed paths, and they wouldn't have gone to Grandma Zhu's funeral in the future.
Therefore, if it is later confirmed that the waves he received are true, then this time, he will not be as lucky as the last Yu Xuzi Big Fish incident and solve the problem so far in advance.
In other words, I have no first-mover advantage this time.
Li Zhuiyuan turned his head and looked out the car window at the passing street scene.
Is it because my behavior in entering the examination room early last time was too exaggerated... so Tiandao fixed this loophole for me?
If this is the case, I should consider revising the "Code of Conduct for Walking on the River".
Because the version is updated, there will be problems with the specification being unable to adapt.
Secondly, you have to seriously consider controlling your points.
Otherwise, if you study and utilize the rules on your own front, and Heaven's back foot follows up and fixes the rules, wouldn't you be building a wall to block your own future?
“We’ve arrived at Zhengyang Street, where can we get off?”
"Master, get off at the intersection ahead."
"Okay."
The taxi pulled over, Li Zhuiyuan got out of the car, turned around, and saw the Pingju Photo Studio.
The photo studio is not big and the decoration is very warm. When Li Zhuiyuan walked in, he saw the boss sweeping the floor.
The boss is very young, less than thirty years old, not tall, wearing a thin windbreaker and a brown beret, and he looks very energetic.
"Take photos or take photos?"
"Take pictures."
"Take ID photo?"
"Yeah."
"How many inches?"
"Two inches."
"Okay, come upstairs with me."
Li Zhuiyuan followed his boss up the stairs. The stairs were very narrow and had many turns.
After going up to the second floor, the space was much wider. Li Zhuiyuan sat down in front of the blue background cloth.
The boss was not in a hurry to fiddle with the camera. Instead, he came over with a comb in his right hand, combed it with the comb first, and then scratched and plucked it with his right hand.
"You will definitely be a handsome boy when you grow up, well, actually you are now, little handsome boy."
Li Zhuiyuan responded with a shy smile.
The boss walked behind the camera: "Come on, let's get ready, that's it, don't move, one, two, three!"
"Click!"
The moment the shutter clicked, Li Zhuiyuan felt his vision go dark, and a "gurgling" sound came from all around.
The young man maintained his original sitting position without moving, and his eyelids did not even twitch. But at the same time, on this basis, he started walking.
From a negative perspective, the camera turns into a giant eyeball.
The eyeballs were covered with dense bloodshot eyes, and they were constantly turning, looking up and down, left and right, carefully looking at themselves.
Gradually, Li Zhuiyuan saw his own face in his big eyeballs, changing from blurry to clear, and even showing a slight three-dimensional effect.
It sees itself, it remembers itself.
"Okay."
The boss's voice sounded, the big eyeball retracted the camera, Li Zhuiyuan also ended his wandering state, and everything returned to normal.
"Do you want it now or pick it up tomorrow?"
"I want it now."
"Then wait a moment and I'll wash it for you."
"Thank you, sorry for bothering you."
"You're welcome."
The boss walked down the stairs. Li Zhuiyuan stood up and followed him out, but when he passed the camera that was set up there, he still looked back.
The lens port where the camera faces the user seems to have white pus residue, which accumulates to a certain extent.
"Crack."
Drops fell to the ground.
Li Zhuiyuan went downstairs.
"You sit down for a while, there is candy there, eat candy."
"Okay, thank you boss."
The boss opened the curtain, opened the door inside, and walked in.
Li Zhuiyuan took a candy from the coffee table and held it in his hand, then walked to the cupboard.
The most displayed items in the photo studio are photos, including those of children, young people, and the elderly. Each age group represents a different photography style.
Children and young people use ordinary photo frames, but the old people's photo frames all have dark stripes.
There is a price tag below, it is not expensive, it is a price that ordinary people can afford.
Is there any special twists and turns in this, didn't you see it?
But earlier at Professor Zhu's house, I had picked up Grandma Zhu's photo and examined it carefully, and found no abnormalities.
Moreover, there are still photo frames placed here, but the specific painful foot cannot be found.
Of course there is something wrong with this store. When the boss just took a picture of himself, he had already seen the big eyeball.
But the problem is, to harm people...you have to do something to harm people, right?
In ancient times, the underworld streaks were a funeral detail that could only be pursued by high-ranking officials and aristocrats, but they have been reduced to civilian prices for you.
Apart from being too delicate and realistic and having a certain dynamic visual sense, there is nothing harmful about the photos of the deceased. Regardless of whether they were taken using special means, from a consumer perspective...it just means that the boss has good skills.
Grandma Zhu's body has reached its natural end, not evil spirits entering her body.
So, what is it trying to do?
In fact, Li Zhuiyuan could take action when taking pictures.
Even to be on the safe side, I could still call to gather people and go directly to the photo studio.
But he held back.
The less you have a first-mover advantage, the less you can be impatient, because if you make a mistake, you may not have time to remedy it.
In the dark back room, the boss stood in front of the medicine pool, motionless.
"Gudu...Gudu..."
There was a crashing sound in the pool.
The boss put his hand in, took out two round objects, and pressed them into his eyes respectively.
"Knock!" "Knock!"
After the boss blinked, he reached out and took out the photo from the pool.
Turning around and walking out, he stopped at the door.
Touching the spot under his eyes, a greasy red liquid was dripping. It was blood.
He walked to the sink, dug out his eyes again, then picked up a water pipe, connected one end to the faucet, and inserted the other end into his eye socket.
Leaning forward, he turned on the faucet, and the water began to wash away his eyes.
It goes in from the left eye socket and comes out from the right eye socket.
"Crash..."
After flushing for a while, I pulled out the water tube, inserted it into the right eye socket, and continued flushing.
After confirming that it was clean, he turned off the faucet and pressed his eyes back again.
"Bah!" "Bah!"
Picking up a dry towel, he began to wipe his face, focusing on his eyes.
I walked to the door again, stopped, waited, raised my hand and touched it, and then opened the door after confirming that there was no problem.
"Squeak..."
The boss came out, walked to the counter, started cutting skillfully, and finally took out a small envelope and put all the photos in it.
"Here you go."
The small envelope is thick.
The boss didn't ask how many sheets he wanted, but this thickness was definitely not the lowest version.
"How much?"
"Our store's rules are to take photos of handsome guys for free."
"But it's not what I'm used to."
"You have already paid. I enjoyed it when taking pictures. We don't owe each other anything." The boss crossed his hands and waved.
"I also need to buy a picture frame."
"Buy a photo frame? What kind?"
"This." Li Zhuiyuan pointed to the black one, "This is the size."
"You can change it to another one. This is a photo frame for portraits."
"I want this, I like this style."
The boss looked embarrassed. After thinking about it, he finally nodded, took out the photo frame and wrapped it in oil paper.
There was a price tag underneath the photo frame. Li Zhuiyuan paid the price. The boss accepted the money without saying anything.
"Goodbye, boss."
"Way to go, handsome boy."
Before Li Zhuiyuan walked out of the photo studio, his eyes glanced at the business license posted on the corner. The name below...Deng Chen.
Leave the store and walk to the other side of the road.
Li Zhuiyuan turned around and looked at the photo studio again.
The boss stood behind the glass display window. On the shelf at the same height as his face, there was a black and white photo of an old lady on the left and a photo of an old grandfather on the right.
He stood in the middle and just stared at the boy.
The two looked at each other.
Suddenly, the portraits of the grandparents on the left and right seemed to be smiling.
Li Zhuiyuan closed his eyes and opened them again. The two photos returned to normal.
But this time, the smile shifted to the boss's face. He was grinning, showing two rows of big white teeth.
His body seemed to be shaking.
Li Zhuiyuan took a step forward, as if he was going to cross the street again. Inside the display window, the boss's body trembled more and more, and his smile became more and more forced.
Li Zhuiyuan did not move forward, but stretched out his hand, stopped a taxi that happened to be passing by, and got in.
The boss relaxed and seemed to be relieved.
"Master, Haihe University."
After telling him the location, Li Zhuiyuan did not turn his head to look out the car window, but closed his eyes as if he was resting.
He had a feeling,
This time the question type has changed.
……
The library is located near the window, and the sun is just right.
Zhou Yunyun is reading a book, and the soft light shines on her body, rendering a clear and clean beauty.
The shadow of the poisoning incident has dissipated. After Zhao Mengyao left a "confession letter and poison", she disappeared. The subsequent investigation also involved the whirlpool of impersonation of her college entrance examination identity...
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The school implemented public opinion control, and Zhou Yunyun obtained the qualification for postgraduate study.
However, these are not the most important things to her.
She raised her head and shifted her gaze from the book to the young man sitting opposite her.
There are couples in the library. There are some who are rubbing each other's ears, some who are flirting with each other, some who are reading seriously at a distance and raising their eyebrows together, and there is also the one in front of me... who is fast asleep.
He wasn't snoring, but she could hear his breathing, and he was sleeping soundly.
Well, he looks so cute when he sleeps.
However, there was a girl who was sitting diagonally opposite, probably a senior, who had been looking here non-stop from before.
Now, she took the initiative to come over and stood next to him, carefully looking at his sleeping face.
Zhou Yunyun shook his pen and made a questioning expression.
The senior sister mustered up her courage and reached out to push Tan Wenbin.
Zhou Yunyun didn't expect the other party to be so direct.
Moreover, after Tan Wenbin was pushed awake, the senior sister seemed to be sure of something and hugged Tan Wenbin who had just sat up.
The most important thing is that Tan Wenbin just woke up in a daze and thought it was Zhou Yunyun hugging him, so he reached out and touched the other person's head.
Touching and touching, he suddenly discovered that the girl sitting opposite him looked similar to his partner.
Then...
"Clang!"
The senior sister was pushed away, knocked open the table next to her, and fell to the ground.
The attention of nearby students was immediately attracted here. After seeing a man, two women, and a woman sitting on the ground, even the most obsessed with studying did not feel disturbed at this moment.
Because this combination is really too classic.
Tan Wenbin was certain that it was this woman who took the initiative to hug him.
He looked at Zhou Yunyun and asked what was going on. Zhou Yunyun shook his head and spread his hands, saying that he didn't understand either.
Tan Wenbin stood up and motioned to Zhou Yunyun to pack his things.
Zhou Yunyun nodded, quickly put the books and stationery into his bag, and then followed Tan Wenbin out of the library.
As soon as he went out, there was a sound of chasing behind him, and it was still the senior sister.
"It's you, it's you, it's you?"
"My dad?"
"Yes, it must be you, I remember you!" The senior sister pretended to want to pounce on Tan Wenbin.
Fortunately, Tan Wenbin was prepared this time and reached out to press the opponent's shoulder in advance, keeping him at arm's length.
"It's you, I remember you, I've seen you!" The senior sister's eyes were so anxious that her eyes were red, and there was a cry in her voice, revealing her true feelings.
The emotion was so sincere that Tan Wenbin began to wonder if he had ever had sex after drinking.
Zhou Yunyun, on the other hand, just looked at this scene calmly and asked: "Hello classmate, can you make things clear? There may be a misunderstanding here?"
Tan Wenbin was really touched that his partner believed in him more than he did.
The senior sister said: "Have you been to Zhengmen Village? Zhengmen Village, you have been there, right?"
After hearing the key word Zhengmen Village, Tan Wenbin finally remembered who the girl in front of him was.
It was the team of college students who went on an expedition to Zhengmen Village, and this woman was one of them.
The reason why I didn't recognize it before was very simple. At that time, these college students were all dirty and turned into manipulated puppets. When I rescued them, they were dragged along the board, and they were all bruised and bruised from the collision.
Now the girl has recovered from her injuries, cleaned herself up, and most importantly, she has put on makeup.
If this could be recognized at a glance, it would really be like seeing a ghost.
"Where is Zhengmen Village? I don't know, I've never been there, classmate, I think you must have mistaken the person."
"No, I remember you, you put your face in front of me, and you even touched me!"
I am making sure you are still alive!
"Classmate, I think you need to rest more." Tan Wenbin moved his fingers in circles on his temples.
Then, he took Zhou Yunyun's hand and continued walking out.
The senior sister has been following behind.
Tan Wenbin and Zhou Yunyun both walked out of the school, and she followed them.
"I said, classmate, I told you, I don't know you, you have the wrong person, so can you stop following us?"
The senior sister nodded: "It's okay if you don't want to admit it, but I want to treat you... to treat you to a meal. I want to express my gratitude. Is that okay?"
"Really, it's not necessary."
"Then I will continue to follow you."
"I'm not from your school."
"Then I will follow her." The senior sister pointed at Zhou Yunyun, "She is from our school, right?"
Tan Wenbin fell silent, stuck out his tongue, and licked his lips.
The senior sister took two steps back in fear, kept waving her hands, and lowered her voice: "I don't want to threaten you, I don't mean that, I really just want to express my gratitude.
They all said that we had inhaled poisonous miasma and had hallucinations. They said that we had not actually entered Zhengmen Village at all, but they did not remember it, but I remembered some scenes.
These days, I often dream about it at night.
I am truly grateful from the bottom of my heart. Even if you are not him, even if I recognize the wrong person, I still want to treat you to a meal.
Sorry..."
Senior sister bows to Tan Wenbin,
"Even if you refuse, I will not pester her. I'm sorry, I was too emotional just now."
Tan Wenbin looked at Zhou Yunyun, who nodded.
"Okay, where to eat?"
"Go to... my restaurant?"
"Not going."
"Then I'll choose one nearby?"
"Okay."
It was said to be nearby, but I walked some distance and finally came to a community store at the side door of a community. The signboard said "Jianghu Chaocai".
Although the location is not good, the business is very good. It is almost lunch time, the place is already full, and there are still people queuing outside.
Tan Wenbin said: "Since it's full, let's forget it."
"No, it's okay, I'll take charge." The senior sister walked into the store to communicate, then immediately turned around and waved, signaling Tan Wenbin and Zhou Yunyun to come in.
Zhou Yunyun: "The business here is so good, it means the food should be delicious."
Tan Wenbin: "Let me tell you, she really admitted the wrong person."
Zhou Yunyun: "I believe whatever you say."
"Okay, let's go and try this food. If it tastes good, we'll come here more often."
This shop opened a small door leading to the community, and a small shed was set up inside. Although it was already full, a small table and three small stools were temporarily arranged opposite the kitchen.
The senior went to order the food first, then get the drinks. After sitting down, she took out a paper towel to wipe the table.
Tan Wenbin looked towards the kitchen. Inside, a half-bald chef who was nearly fifty years old was cooking. He was controlling several pots by himself, and his movements were smooth and fluid. And as if to show off his calmness, he actually closed his eyes while cooking. .
Awesome.
Zhou Yunyun took the initiative to communicate with this senior. Only now did everyone know each other's names.
The senior student's surname is Luo, and her name is Luo Mingzhu. She is in the same department as Zhou Yunyun and is a junior.
Luo Mingzhu introduced her hobbies and specifically mentioned "loving adventure".
When he heard this, Tan Wenbin was drinking soda and almost spit out a mouthful of soda from his nose.
What does it mean to love adventure? It is obviously love to death.
Their table must have been specially arranged, and the food was served quickly.
Tan Wenbin picked up the chopsticks and tasted it. It tasted really good, the kind that can be eaten with skill.
I’ll bring Ayou here to eat next time.
The soup was served quickly, and the small table was already filled.
There were customers waiting nearby who were dissatisfied and complained about why the table came so quickly. They were obviously the ones who came first.
The aunt who worked as a waiter explained that this was a family member coming to eat, so they must be served first.
After hearing this reason, the guests at several nearby tables stopped making noise.
Zhou Yunyun asked: "Is this your restaurant?"
Luo Mingzhu shook her head: "No, it was opened by my fourth uncle. My fourth uncle originally worked as a chef in my store, but later he saw that my parents were cutting corners on the ingredients and shoddy, so he got angry and went out on his own to open this store."
Tan Wenbin asked proactively: "Tell me the name of your hotel so I can avoid danger in the future."
Luo Mingzhu: "The Mingzhu Restaurant on Yushan Street."
Zhou Yunyun: "Did your parents open the business in your name?"
Luo Mingzhu: "My original name was Luo Mingyu, but later my parents helped me change my name to Luo Mingzhu. I took the name of my restaurant."
"Hahaha!" Tan Wenbin was amused.
Luo Mingzhu saw Tan Wenbin smiling, and she laughed too.
The previous "misunderstanding" between the two of them was completely dissipated at this moment.
In fact, this senior has quite an extroverted personality and her exploration ability is poor, but she also has something special about her. Others have basically forgotten about her experience in Zhengmen Village, but she can still remember some scenes.
Tan Wenbin knows that such people are born with spiritual awareness that is much higher than that of ordinary people and are more sensitive.
Everyone was eating food and chatting. Luo Mingzhu no longer forced Tan Wenbin to admit what happened in Zhengmen Village, but instead chatted more and more with Zhou Yunyun. The two left each other's dormitory numbers.
Tan Wenbin ate the food silently. He knew that the senior sister was making a roundabout attack.
My silly squad leader actually accepted it, but maybe he was taking a step back to make progress.
He also knew better than to be deceived by the seemingly intimate relationship between the two women.
Meal time has passed and the peak customer period is over.
The cooking boss finally had a rest and walked out of the kitchen. He wiped his sweat with a wet towel and stood behind Luo Mingzhu:
"Zhuzhu, is this your classmate and friend?"
"Well, yes, let me introduce to you. This is Zhou Yunyun and this is Tan Wenbin."
Zhou Yunyun: "Hello, uncle, the food you cook is so delicious."
Tan Wenbin looked at it in confusion, and found that the fourth uncle still had his eyes closed.
"Haha, thank you. Since we are Zhuzhu's friends, if you want to come over for dinner in the future, you can just come in and say hello. No need to wait."
Fourth uncle took out the cigarette case from his pocket, pulled out a cigarette and handed it to Tan Wenbin.
Tan Wenbin stood up and took it, asking: "Uncle, are your eyes injured?"
"Haha, didn't Zhuzhu tell you?"
Luo Mingzhu said: "My fourth uncle has been blind since he was a child, but his cooking skills are far behind those of my father and other uncles."
"Hahaha." The fourth uncle smiled happily. He was very satisfied with the praise and recognition from his niece. "You can cook even if you can't see with your eyes. Just use your ears. How should the heat be and how much ingredients should be added? With my ears, I can cook. Clear.”
"This is a real skill, it's amazing."
Tan Wenbin sincerely praised.
The last person I saw who had great hearing was my brother Xiao Yuan.
Brother Xiaoyuan's hearing is so good that he can clearly hear your whispers even from a distance.
Tan Wenbin's mind immediately flashed into the image of Brother Xiao Yuan shaking his spoon with his eyes closed, poof...
While smiling, Tan Wenbin took out his lighter and went to light a cigarette for his fourth uncle. Anyway, he tasted such good craftsmanship.
"Oh, okay, thank you."
The fourth uncle bit the cigarette, lowered his head, and accurately delivered the cigarette butt to the flame.
Out of courtesy, the fourth uncle put his hands on Tan Wenbin's hand holding the lighter.
As soon as their hands touched each other.
Tan Wenbin's shoulders instantly felt cold, and the cries of the two babies suddenly sounded!
Under this stimulation, he instantly became depressed.
After leaving the shadow, in his field of vision, his fourth uncle's ears turned into two centipedes that were folded and coiled there.
The two centipedes seemed to have sensed the surveillance, turning their bodies and looking at Tan Wenbin, ready to pounce.
Tan Wenbin immediately let go of his hand, and the negative state was released.
The cigarette in Fourth Uncle's mouth also fell to the ground.
When he thought that this guy had made this table of dishes, Tan Wenbin seemed to recall the roasted pork skin and boiled shrimps he ate in a daze when he first arrived at Uncle Li's house.
He immediately reached out and pulled Zhou Yunyun up. His fourth uncle was standing at the exit, so he pulled Zhou Yunyun and ran into the Houtou Community.
"Hey, what's wrong, what's wrong?" Luo Mingzhu was a little confused.
The fourth uncle stretched out his hand and put it on Luo Mingzhu's head. With a "clang" sound, Luo Mingzhu immediately fainted and fell to the ground, knocking over the small table and breaking the dishes.
But the guests at the nearby tables continued to eat and drink as if they didn't see anything.
The fourth uncle looked gloomy and walked into the kitchen. When he came out, he held two kitchen knives in his hands and chased him straight into the community.
……
Li Zhuiyuan got off the bus at the school gate and walked into the school.
Come to the living area and enter the affordable store.
Lu Yi sat behind the store counter and greeted Li Zhuiyuan: "Hey, Brother Prodigy."
This was how he called Li Zhuiyuan from the beginning. Later, when Tan Wenbin and Yin Meng also called Li Zhuiyuan "brother," he continued to call him "brother."
"Where's Mengmeng?"
Lu Yi: "Runsheng suggested that Mengmeng go shopping with her best friend this morning. She probably won't come back until evening."
"What about Brother Runsheng?"
"Run Sheng was here originally, but the fellow here today, let's call him Sun Hua. Run Sheng called him Hua Hou. He was memorizing it at 1 o'clock today. When he came here in the morning..."
Lu Yi leaned out and pointed to the steps outside.
“While raising his hands and shouting ‘Run Shenghou’, he slipped and there was a ‘bang’ sound, and he hit the back of his head on the steps, bleeding a lot.
After Runsheng bandaged him, he borrowed a three-wheeler from the canteen and took him to the hospital. He has not returned yet.
The blood on the ground was wiped by me. ”
"Is something wrong?"
"It shouldn't be anything serious, except for the excessive bleeding, but who can say for sure what's going on with my head? It's better to send it to the hospital for examination and treatment, so don't worry."
Li Zhuiyuan nodded.
Runsheng did not send the person to the school infirmary but to a large off-campus hospital because Runsheng knew very well that Dr. Fan could only treat people with special physiques like him and Shuyou Lin.
If an ordinary person has a big problem and sends it to Fan Shulin for rescue, it will not only harm the patient, but also destroy the miracle doctor.
However, this accident came a little too coincidental.
Especially when he confirmed that he had received the waves from the river, something happened around his companions.
"Brother Lu Yi, help me call them, Mengmeng Tan Wenbin Runsheng, call them all again, and tell them to go back to school now."
The last time I bought a car, I used the remaining money to buy pagers for everyone else.
Li Zhuiyuan also has one in his schoolbag.
"Okay, I'll call for you."
Lu Yi picked up the phone and called the paging station.
Li Zhuiyuan walked back to the dormitory and when he opened the dormitory door, he saw Shuyou Lin sitting at the desk and memorizing the "Rule List".
Every time Tan Wenbin goes to see Zhou Yunyun, Shuyou Lin will be temporarily let off by Tan Wenbin.
Therefore, Tan Wenbin also went out.
This is not a mistake. It is an established strategy for everyone to maintain normal social interactions to look for clues of cause and effect.
"Brother Xiaoyuan, you are back. Have you eaten?"
"I've eaten." Li Zhuiyuan paused, "How is your memorization?"
"Fortunately... I'm working hard on combining the formulas with movements."
"Keep up the good work."
Shuyou Lin: "I know! I understand!"
"Also, don't leave this dormitory yet."
Shuyou Lin: "I understand! I know!"
Li Zhuiyuan closed the dormitory door and walked out.
His pace obviously sped up as he went down the stairs. He came to the cheap store again, stood at the door, and pointed at the phone to Lu Yi.
Lu Yi shrugged, shook his head, and signaled that he had called, but no one had called back yet.
Either, there happens to be no phone booth nearby and we are looking for it; or, there is no way to return the call at the moment, and we may not even be able to receive this message.
Li Zhuiyuan's mind suddenly echoed what Wei Zhengdao had said to him under the peach tree:
"He had suspected that the infinite blasphemy against the way of heaven would eventually arouse the true disgust of the way of heaven."
Li Zhuiyuan came to Liu Yumei's house.
Pushing open the courtyard door and opening the floor-to-ceiling windows, Ali sat on the bed.
Although after he appeared, the girl immediately turned her head and looked at herself, her eyes bright.
But she was obviously in a daze before.
Li Zhuiyuan stretched out his hand to Ah Li, but Ah Li did not take the initiative to hand it over this time.
"Ali, give me your hand."
The girl shook her head.
Li Zhuiyuan smiled: "You don't believe me?"
Ali hesitated.
Li Zhuiyuan raised his right hand, spread it out towards Ah Li, and tapped the index finger of his left hand on the palm of his right hand.
The burns had long since healed, leaving no scars.
But Ali clearly knew what this meant.
The girl seemed to have made up her mind, and finally stretched out her hand.
Li Zhuiyuan grabbed her hand and closed his eyes.
Open it again.
In the familiar bungalow, the altar table at the back is full of broken tablets.
Outside the threshold, the white mist that had retreated to the periphery after experiencing the two incidents of Granny Yu and Big Fish in succession, now approached the threshold again and stayed a foot away from the threshold.
In the white mist, there were all kinds of laughter, curses, curses and banter, creating a dull pressure.
Li Zhuiyuan took a step forward and walked out of the threshold.
The voices in the white mist suddenly stopped.
They are still afraid after all.
Li Zhuiyuan reached out and pulled out the white lantern inserted in the crack of the wall.
Let me see,
This time,
What the hell is it!
Li Zhuiyuan will grab the lantern stick and throw the lantern into the white mist in front of him.
Soon, a tight grip came.
It caught it with great force and obvious provocation, and the force was still increasing, layer by layer, gradually increasing.
Li Zhuiyuan's feet were dragged forward.
Suddenly, Li Zhuiyuan deliberately released his strength and loosened the lantern forward. The next moment, Li Zhuiyuan used strength again and swung it back violently.
This time, the opponent's strength was much smaller, and he obviously didn't expect this move from him.
The thing in the white mist was pulled out by Li Zhuiyuan.
One, two, three...
Looking at the long list being pulled out, Li Zhuiyuan's eyes became solemn.
Because,
This wave,
Five of them came!
