Chapter Ten Lotus Pods as Roses

"I just like to be messy, and I just like to see you all miserable. If I don't come back, can you continue to have sweet dreams?"

Before Ren Qiancang finished speaking, I said: "If he doesn't come back, what will his death mean? Who will be responsible for his death? Look at it this way, in order to live a stable life, your master will not go even if Ren Qiancang dies."

Mention, he is the selfish one."

As Ye Cheng walked out, he said: "My reminder has been brought." Thinking that Ye Cheng would not talk to us like this before. Now there is no need to disguise each other's positions.

As soon as Ye Cheng left, Ren Qiancang looked at the cat corpse. Master Bao came back from nowhere, holding a box and a pair of chopsticks in his hand. He squatted next to the cat corpse, opened the box, and used

The chopsticks put the cat into the box and closed it

He also put a talisman in the box, covered the box, and tied it with red thread. He said: "This must be burned immediately. This water should already contain corpse poison. The old man touched this water last night. I don't know."

Will there be any reaction?"

As soon as Master Bao finished speaking, my body trembled, and Ren Qiancang said hurriedly: "Shang Shang also touched that red water."

Mr. Bao's hands that were tying the box suddenly froze. He looked at me slowly and said, "Let the kitchen boil a large pot of hot water, then put glutinous rice and lotus seeds in the water, and soak them all. Actions

Come on."

"Where can I find so many lotus seed hearts at once?" The few lotus seed hearts I found last time were just boiled into medicine. How do I determine the amount for bathing now?

"Go to the lotus pond and ask for as much as you have." Ren Qiancang said and turned around and left. I followed, but Master Bao grabbed me and said, "This cat?"

"Go and burn it. The police are also at home today."

Mr. Bao hesitated for a moment and said with a troubled look on his face: "Okay, it's best for a second-class person like me. I'll burn it. I'll burn it. Isn't it just a trip to the funeral parlor?"

Only then did I realize that what I had just thought was a wrong idea to just take the cat to the bamboo forest and find a place to burn it in the back. It would have to be sent to a funeral parlor, and the cat would not be able to stay at home all day.

Master Bao waved to me, and I quickly followed Ren Qiancang and left first, separated from Master Bao.

Wu Guang was very cautious in his work. When we were walking towards the lotus pond, we passed by the kitchen and saw a lot of busy work. From the looks of it, the dishes should have been served. Wu Guang is really amazing. He was already there before he returned home.

Having given the order, this gives yourself a sufficient escape route.

In the courtyard with the lotus pond, the wrought iron gate in front of the arch has been closed, and there is a sign on it that says "No one is allowed to enter the courtyard." The sign is the security room.

Ren Qiancang didn't pay attention to the sign. He shook the iron door a few times and opened the iron door that resembled a decoration. He and I walked in. Even though the well water had become like that, the lotus pond

But this side was not affected at all. I didn't notice anything special about this pool before. Last time Mr. Bao went into the water and discovered Tai Chi at the bottom of the water. Now that I look at this pool, it does have the image of Tai Chi.

The lotus flowers in that half of the pond are no longer the same as those seen before. There are only one or two flowers left, and there are not many lotus pods left. Many of them are hanging down and empty.

Ren Qiancang suddenly jumped up and spun around on the lotus. When he came back to me, he already had more than a dozen lotus pods in his hand, which he handed directly to me.

He handed it to me and said, "Do you want to give you flowers like this? Unfortunately, there are no flowers, and the lotus pods are not beautiful. Just think of these lotus pods as roses."

I laughed: "The situation is so dangerous now, do you still have the heart to joke?"

"The worst thing is that your body has changed and you have become a zombie. I will kill you and twist off your head. Then we go back to the small building. If anyone goes to that small building, they will see two heads.

It’s floating in the corridor.”

I smiled even brighter: "What are you doing today? Tell me a joke to make me laugh."

"Shangshang, I'm worried that you are nervous and scared."

"I'm not as cowardly as you think. I'm going back to peel the lotus seeds, and I have to go to the kitchen to see if I need glutinous rice. You go to the hall to eat with the policemen, and you can also get some information. I can do it by myself."

Ren Qiancang also agreed. Now that Mr. Bao has gone out to burn the cat carcass, there is no one of us in the hall, and Wu Guangna also has to monitor it.

As we walked towards the yard over there, I suddenly thought of the old man and asked: "The old man and I should be in the same situation. Do we need to tell him too? Although Ye Cheng asked us to burn the cat, he

Whether you know this cat is a zombie or not, I’m not sure.”

Ren Qiancang's face turned cold: "Master, let Wu Guang take care of it himself."

Ren Qiancang went to the lobby, and I was busy detoxifying myself. Because there was no wound on my body, and I washed it off with water in a short time that night. It was not like the old man who was covered in blood.

I wrapped myself in a blanket and went to see Gujing. I don’t know when the blood was washed off.

When I was ready to have people pour boiling water into the bathtub and everyone had evacuated, I was holding a small bag of glutinous rice in one hand and a freshly peeled lotus seed heart in a bowl. I was scared when I looked at the bathroom.

But I know that I have to overcome this phenomenon. If I drag it on, I will really become a zombie, or have any sequelae, and really become a hindrance to Ren Qiancang. I went in with all my strength.

There was no trace of blood anymore, it was completely white.

The water in the bathtub was steaming, and my heart was racing and trembling. I was worried that a certain water valve would open by itself and blood would spurt out.

I told myself in my heart not to think about it, not to think about it, but I couldn't stop imagining that scene. I poured the glutinous rice and lotus seed hearts into it with trembling hands. Then I tested the water temperature. Boiling water, from then on

Buckets were brought over from the kitchen, and they were brought over again and again, and the temperature was suitable for bathing.

I immersed myself in the water, soaking my whole body as much as possible. I even held my breath and immersed my whole head in the water. I even scratched my hair.

I didn’t feel much when I soaked in the water. I think this is because I didn’t have any wounds on my body. Thinking about Yuan Xue’s injury and the appearance of the wound, I was scared. I was thinking, if I had

There is a wound, but if the water cannot be washed away in time, will the wound rot like Yuan Xue did?

Thinking about that scene made me even more scared.

By the time I soaked in the water until it cooled down, changed my clothes and went out, the banquet in the front hall had already dispersed. Two aunts in the kitchen were cleaning the table. When I glanced across the door, I saw Xu Xin

Why is Xu Xin here again? I was confused and walked over.

Xu Xin was wearing a snow-white dress, holding a snow-white umbrella, with her long black hair hanging down, her head lowered, and a smile on her lips. I have to say that Xu Xin is really beautiful. Otherwise, Ren Qiancang would have

He won't like her that much anymore.

She was holding a few pieces of paper in her hand and was flipping through them. She didn't notice me for a moment. Judging from her direction, she should have gone out. Who did she just see? Then the person gave her a few pieces of paper.

piece of paper, and then she left, eager to look at the pieces of paper in front of the door.

This is my inference, and only this inference can be consistent with her current actions.

I asked in a low voice to the security room nearby: "Who did Xu Xin meet just now when she came here?"

The security guard replied: "Oh, Miss Xu is here to see Mr. Ren. After saying a few words, Mr. Ren went in." The security guard seemed to have a strange look. He stuck his head out of the security room and looked over there.

Xu Xin said: "Hey, why is she still there for so long?"

How long? She was looking at those pieces of paper. Of course it would be a long time.

I strode over and said with a smile: "Xu Xin, are you coming to play?"

Xu Xin put away the pieces of paper in panic when she heard my voice, but my eyes still caught sight of one of them. I was very familiar with that piece of paper because I had seen it several times. It was the piece of paper that Ren Qiancang had seen before.

When I was painting my small building

The floor plan of the Ren family's courtyard came out. This picture passed through the hands of several people. Ren Qiancang, me, Ye Yan, and Master Bao. And Master Bao had a large, fully open map. The one in Xu Xin's hand should be

It is a reduced picture of A4.

Who gave it to her? And why? She accepted the picture so nervously, it must be what I wanted to know. What was she hiding from me? My heart sank. All along, I thought she was

My love rival, but now it seems that she is not my love rival, but our enemy! Or an undercover agent? Or Infernal Affairs?

Xu Xin also smiled and said, "Hello, Sister Shang."

"Ready to leave?"

"Um."

"You... came to see Ren Qiancang?"

Her eyes looked melancholy for a moment, and then she said: "Well, don't get me wrong, Sister Shang. We are not in that relationship, I just treat him as a big brother. After all, he knows a lot of things from the past, some of which my parents did.

I don’t know.”

I smiled and didn't say anything, just watched her say goodbye to me and left. After seeing Xu Xin off, I returned to the security room and asked at their window: "Help me see where Ren Qiancang is."

Woolen cloth?"

The security guard looked at the screen and said, "Mr. Ren is in your yard. He's ready to go."

I nodded and walked quickly towards our yard. When I returned to the yard, Ren Qiancang was already lying on the sofa, with his pet cat sitting on his chest. He was helping the cat's fur be smoothed.

.The little black cat is also on top of his head, with its little paws pulling his hair. I don’t know why, but the kitten grows very slowly, and now it is only a little bigger than before.

I said, "Xu Xin came just now."

"I know, I met her at the gate and said a few words."
