() The small restaurant in the villa is decorated in a unique style with a bamboo theme, as if the diners are in a bamboo forest in the countryside.

Although the villa is already cool, the vertical air conditioner cleverly hidden in an artificial bamboo leaf is still blowing out strong cold air.

After Jiang Wei enthusiastically invited everyone to sit down, Zhao Waner joked: "Mr. Jiang, you have a lot of money and it's a small thing. But the country advocates energy conservation in such a cool environment. Isn't it too wasteful for you to turn on the air conditioner in such a cool environment?"

Jiang Wei said cheerfully: "I don't dare to neglect entertaining you distinguished guests. I turned on the air conditioner today to let you experience the feeling of eating hot pot in midsummer. Since you come from the metropolis of Shanghai, you naturally don't care about the things in the hotel. So today I called The chef cooks all country dishes from the farmhouse”

Zhao Waner was also happy and thanked Jiang Wei repeatedly and said mysteriously: "The main dish for everyone today is a hot pot. It is stewed with pangolins from our mountains as the main ingredient. I hope everyone will be satisfied with it."

"Pangolin" Zhao Waner exclaimed: "This is a nationally protected animal. How can you eat it?"

Jiang Wei looked embarrassed, and Li Bing quickly smoothed things over: "Wan'er said that we can't eat pangolins, but the chef has killed and stewed them. Even if we don't eat them, we can't resurrect them. Besides, Mr. Jiang also wants us to do as the Romans do."

Jiang Wei's face slowly relaxed when he heard Li Bing echoing Zhao Waner's words.

Jiang Wei gave a toast and the banquet officially began, and the atmosphere slowly reached **

Li Bing took advantage of his drunkenness and asked: "Mr. Jiang heard from Ergou that you often dine with your wife, why don't you see her coming to have dinner with you today?"

Jiang Wei was already blushing from drinking and panting heavily: "Li Bing, although my wife is crazy, I used to be rich thanks to my wife. Now she is like this. How can I bear to abandon her? I usually go with her when there are no guests." When she dines with guests, she asks Ergou to deliver the food to her room. I don’t dare to scare the guests and make me lose face.”

Li Bing said: "So it turns out that Mr. Jiang's behavior makes me admire my brothers. To be honest, today we came back from offering incense at Puzhao Zen Temple and happened to meet your wife shouting in the bamboo forest. We were shocked. She actually said, 'She's back.' You will all die. I don’t know if your wife is so hateful and wants to curse others to death.”

When Jiang Wei heard this, although he couldn't see the change in his face because he drank too much, the hand holding the wine glass visibly trembled and he spilled some wine and dropped it on the dining table.

Li Bing saw that the opportunity was ripe and pretended to have had too much wine. He gasped and took out the photo of Shi Lin from his pocket. He held it up in his hand and asked Jiang Wei with red eyes: "Mr. Jiang, we saw Mrs. Jiang burning incense and kowtowing in the bamboo forest and couldn't stop talking. After talking about it, my wife asked the two dogs to help me back to the villa. We went to take a look and found this photo on the pile of stones that my wife had built. I wonder if the 'she' that my wife said is the person in the photo. I’m also surprised how the person in the photo looks so much like the Shi Lin my friend asked me to inquire about.”

Jiang Weiwei was shocked. The cup in his hand fell to the ground with a 'pop' sound. He stared at the photo in Li Bing's hand and murmured: "I don't know, unfortunately my wife is so crazy. I don't know where she found it." photo"

Li Bing said: "This photo looks very clean. It doesn't look like an old photo or something picked up anywhere. It looks like a new photo. Is it really a photo taken recently by Shi Lin? But since she has been here before, why doesn't she show her face?" Woolen cloth"

Jiang Wei's panic was palpable and he yelled a bit rudely: "It's impossible, it's impossible, it's impossible that Shi Lin took the photo and put it in the bamboo forest."

Li Bing pretended to be strange and said: "Why is Mr. Jiang so sure that you said you have never met Shi Lin?"

Jiang Wei was shocked and said in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I have never seen the Shi Lin you are talking about. She has been missing for so long and may be dead. If she is really dead, someone made a prank and posted a photo of a dead person at the entrance of my villa. It’s so unlucky”

Li Bing was about to ask questions when he suddenly heard Shi Liya exclaiming: "Look, there are words on the photo."

Li Bing was shocked and retracted his hand to take a closer look at the photo. He couldn't help but be dumbfounded. He saw a line of yellow-brown writing on the originally white background on the back of the photo: "Whoever harms me will die Shi Lin."

Everyone was shocked. Jiang Wei was so frightened that he fell off his seat. Qian Yiduo, who was next to him, quickly helped Jiang Wei up and said: "Mr. Jiang, what's wrong with you? It's nothing."

Jiang Wei calmed down and said, "It's okay. I've had too much wine. I'm going back to the room to rest. Sorry, everyone, excuse me."

Without waiting for anyone to answer, Jiang Wei stood up and walked straight out of the restaurant.

Zhao Waner looked at Li Bing with admiration and said: "Li Bing, you are so smart. This is a great way to scare off the enemy. How did you manage to hide the words and then show them again?"

Li Bing's answer was beyond everyone's expectation. He shook his head solemnly and said: "I didn't do this. I don't know why writing suddenly appeared on this photo. Is it really Shi Lin's ghost who appeared?"

At this time, there was a sound of high heels and Xiao Li's figure appeared at the door of the restaurant. She smiled and said: "Everyone, Mr. Jiang has had too much wine and can no longer accompany you. He specially asked me to come to entertain you. Please forgive me."

When Li Bing and others saw Xiao Li's appearance, they immediately stopped talking and greeted Xiao Li politely and went back to the table to drink.

After the banquet, everyone gathered in Li Bing's room. Li Bing took out the photo of Shi Lin and kept holding the scary words on the back of the photo.

Li Bing put the photo on the table and concentrated on his thoughts. Several other people moved their heads forward, only to feel that the handwriting on the photo was delicate and elegant, and it seemed that it was written by a woman.

Shi Liya looked at the line of words on the photo and said to herself: "It's strange that nothing happened at first and then these terrible words appeared. Why did the handwriting that was yellowish brown when I first discovered it now turn black?"

She suddenly thought of many short stories mentioned in wild history, and her heart moved. She picked up the photo and sniffed it carefully for a while.

Shriya's behavior aroused everyone's curiosity. They didn't know what she wanted to do, they just stared at her.
