【013】Anshen Fragrance

The already tense nerve was once again hung high because of the sound from below the stairs... The shadows outside the window and the movements from downstairs attracted Jiang Rong's attention so strangely.

The rustling sound turned into a slight sound of footsteps. It was too late to retreat to her. She had to harden her head and stay motionless like a gecko, pressing against the wall, nervously looking at the bottom of the stairs, slowly reflecting on the wall. Seeing the black shadow, Jiang Rong's heart suddenly lifted... The footsteps became clear, and then a pair of cloth shoes appeared... Seeing the cloth shoes, the heart that lifted loosened slightly.

She knew who the owner of this pair of cloth shoes was, wasn't it the kind and amiable cook?

Sure enough, the cook with a warm smile came out and looked up at Jiang Rong in a very gentle posture, like a feather with a pure smell, and an unquestionable affinity asked: "Why haven't you been sleeping yet?"

"Uh, I woke up and got up and went to the bathroom," Jiang Rong stammered, without the trust of the cook. She still smiled and waited for her to continue talking. Looking at the other party's unfathomable smile, she blushed and sorted out her panic. She remembered the shadow she saw just now, and hurriedly added: "Auntie, I saw a strange shadow just now, I don't know who it is."

When the cook heard Jiang Rong's words, he was stunned inadvertently and quickly returned to normal and said, "Don't you be so dazzled, there is no one at all,"

"...It's true, I really saw it, that... it flashed out from there," Jiang Rong tried hard to explain, wanting the other party to believe in him.

But what she said was completely ignorant and smiling. After she stopped talking, she still said to her softly: "Okay, silly girl, aren't you going to the bathroom? Let's go, auntie accompany you,"

In Jiang Rong's opinion, the other party's ignorance seemed to be impatient to listen to her own defense, pursed her lips speechlessly, embarrassed to continue saying anything, so she nodded and followed the cook step by step down the stairs step by step.

Jiang Rong entered the bathroom, and the cook turned around and left.

After a while, the cook seemed to have calculated that Jiang Rong had washed her clothes and came to the door in time. She had an incense head that looked like burning incense. "Girl, you must have had a bad sleep just now, so you can't sleep. I'll burn a pillar of calm incense for you later to ensure that you sleep until dawn."

"Really, that's great," Jiang Rong smiled gratefully.

"Yeah, let's go,"

Jiang Rong lies quietly on the bed as the cook’s instructions, with an incense burner placed on the wooden cabinet. A pillar of smoke slowly surrounds, with a strange smell floating in the room. She feels her eyelids are so heavy that she has to close her eyes before she feels more comfortable...

She was awakened by a mess of shouting, and it was Junjun who slapped her door.

"Rongrong opens the door, Rongrong gets up quickly."

"What, ahh..." When she was yawning, she was too lazy to move. She opened her still sore eyelids and squinted her eyes to look out the window. It was already dawn. "Junjun, are you shouting?" Jiang Rong knew that Junjun and Xiaoxi were sleeping in the same room. She had been young and was not used to sleeping in the same room, so the cook specially left this moderately sized room for her to rest alone.

Junjun heard Jiang Rong's shout and said anxiously: "Get up quickly, Rongrong, Xiaoxi is gone."

"What," Jiang Rong was shocked, quickly turned over and got up, put on her clothes in a few seconds, put on her shoes, and took two steps at the door, and walked to the door and opened the door in surprise, looking at Jun Jun with anxious expression, "Aren't you here with her?" The room where Jun Jun and Xiaoxi were sleeping was opposite to Jiang Rong's room. As she spoke, her eyes turned to the open door. She spoke so loudly, and she really didn't see Xiaoxi coming out. She felt that something bad must have happened last night.

Xiaoxi disappeared in the old house, which was nothing more than a shocking news, which scared several companions at once. Because of the hard work last night, Xiao Ming was awakened by the heavy blow from the cook slapping the door.

After learning that Xiaoxi was missing, Xiaoming realized the seriousness of the situation. This was not only the loss of Han Bin, but also had to deal with Xiaoxi... What to do? Go and call the police. If Xiaoxi doesn't have anything to do, and play or do something else, wouldn't it be a lie?

After thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Ming said resolutely: "Don't panic, don't disturb the police station first. Let's go and look for it. If you don't find it today, call the police..."

Before he finished speaking, a series of slap sounds suddenly came from Xiao Ming's side, "Okay...Okay...Okay." Xiao Ming and others were so surprised that they stared at each other wide-eyed. The dementia man in the old house was drooling and kept slapping his palms, as if he was very happy.

Normal people cannot give me the same knowledge as fools. Xiao Ming and others were too lazy to deal with dementia. They all quickly had a meal and prepared to set off. Tongchuan County is also an area with high mountains and far away emperors. There are frequent migrant populations here. People outside the mountain come into the mountain, just want to breathe fresh air and see the scenery in the mountains.

There are also people who come with a certain purpose, such as looking for valuable treasures here. Tongchuan County is also an ancient city that has survived the storm. Ancient streets and dilapidated old buildings. The folk customs are simple and quaint, and the quaint smell is hidden everywhere. This antique fragrance attracts many people who want to make money from antiques.

The renovation of the old city is also aimed at some wooden buildings that cannot be restored and remediated. Some houses that are well preserved, such as old houses, are protected and repaired accordingly.

The streets were crowded with people, and they were not as quiet and free as night walks. Xiao Ming and others were crowded with the crowd coming and going, and their eyes focused on Xiao Xi's childish face.

Xiaoxi was not found in the county town. The statement that she went shopping alone was not valid. I don’t know who it was, but I remembered Han Bin, “Will she go to Han Bin?”

Xiaoxi went to find Han Bin, is it possible? Jiang Rong is Han Bin's girlfriend. What is Xiaoxi? But no matter how she speculates and thinks, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, everyone's doubts will be put on hold for the time being. It is important to find someone. Maybe Han Bin is really with Xiaoxi now.

This sentence came from Junjun, a clever ghost. She looked at Jiang Rong with a look of wanting to speak but stopping.

Junjun's expression betrayed her inner secrets.

Junjun's confession almost made Jiang Rong feel angry.
