"Zhou Cang, look at that door. Is it the back door the professor mentioned on the phone?" Xiangyu stopped and pointed forward and asked.
"Xiangyu, are you crazy? The professor who called me this morning was not a professor. It was clearly a trap set by Wang Zhishui, waiting for us to fall into the trap." I said.
"Zhou Cang, I don't think so. Maybe it was just an accident that we entered Professor Wang's house, you see." Xiangyu said, pointing in the direction to our right.
I looked in the direction of her finger, and my eyes lit up.
About twenty meters away on the right, there is a stand of violets. In midsummer, it is really the season when violets are in full bloom, so the flower stand made of thin bamboo is covered with strings of violets. Under the violets, there is a
Pots of jacquard flowers.
In fact, Nalan Jacquard is a variety of the Phalaenopsis we usually talk about, but this variety is very special. The flowers are small and light purple in color. When they bloom, they look like butterflies dancing, and the fragrance is very rich, but this richness has a certain
A feeling that makes people feel relaxed and happy when they smell it.
When I was a child, my grandma planted all the jacquard flowers in the Yangcheng of the Zhou family's old house. But later, my grandpa thought the flowers were too fragrant and asked grandma to give away all the flowers. At that time, grandma was sad for a long time.
Although I was still young, I could feel her emotions after following my grandma all day long. I vaguely remember that after each pot of Nala jacquards was sent away, my grandma would be in a daze for several days.
.
I just didn't expect that after more than 20 years, I could see this little flower again in this city, which makes people feel a little emotional.
The strange thing is that we have been in the sanatorium for so long without even encountering a summer insect. But here, on the orchid jacquards, there are bees fluttering their wings, accompanied by an incessant "buzzing".
"Buzz" sound.
Is it possible that there are no things that summer insects are afraid of here? But that doesn’t make sense. Since the things that make small animals stay away no longer exist, why are there only small bees here and no other sounds of insects?
"Zhou Cang, look at that door," Xiangyu suddenly said, holding my hand.
I raised my eyes and saw that behind the purple wisteria, there was a relatively simple wooden door that was closed tightly. There was also a pair of copper door knockers on the door leaves.
"Tell me, Professor Wang originally wanted you to come to this room, but we didn't follow his instructions and entered through the front door without authorization, so we accidentally broke into the room just now."
Xiangyu lowered his voice very low, feeling that he had not yet gotten over the echoes of Wang Zhishui's mischief just now.
"Xiangyu, do you think this is good?" I turned around and said to Xiangyu, "We all know that the back door is here. You go over first and wait for me outside the door. I will go first by myself.
Go into the house, and if something happens, you won't be completely wiped out."
"No, I want to go in with you." Xiangyu said firmly.
"Xiangyu, listen to me. We need to analyze the current actual situation. I know that your legs were injured when you rolled down the stairs just now. So if you rush in with me now, it is very dangerous and will also aggravate my health.
Since Wang Zhishui clearly asked me to go alone on the phone, I don’t think he would say that for no reason." I tried to keep my tone as gentle as possible to prevent her from thinking that I disliked her for dragging me down.
But despite this, Xiangyu's eyes still dimmed for a moment, but then turned around again. She pretended to be relaxed and said: "Well, you have to be careful."
I feel uncomfortable looking at Xiangyu's appearance, but I can't help it. First of all, I've learned a lesson from Wang Zhishui just now, so I can't let her take risks with me anymore. Come on, her foot was slightly injured.
Come into the house with me now. If something unexpected happens, it will indeed be a little inconvenient to escape for your life.
Xiangyu and I came to the back door. Unexpectedly, the door was unlocked and opened with a slight pull. Xiangyu stood outside the door consciously and did not forget to tell me: "Be careful. I'll wait."
You come out."
I smiled and told her don't worry, then turned around and walked towards Violet.
This distance of less than 100 meters took me a long time, and my steps were actually very heavy.
To be honest, I am really scared in my heart. This fear comes from two sources. On the one hand, I don’t know if there will be any danger here. On the other hand, I am afraid that I will get closer and closer to the truth, and
As Chen Mo told me before in Wawu Mountain, this final truth may be something I can't bear.
However, no matter how much reluctance I felt, the road finally came to an end. I followed what Wang Zhishui told me on the phone, first knocked on the door three times, and then pulled it gently.
What I didn't expect was that as soon as I put down my hand on the door, someone opened the door from the inside.
As the door slowly opened, the outline of a middle-aged woman wearing single clothes and a green cloth on her head gradually appeared completely in my eyes.
For a moment, I really thought I had traveled through time and space, and the person standing in front of me was a young grandma.
Although the woman did not look exactly like my grandma, I could still tell at a glance that she was from Yunnan and belonged to the Mosu tribe.
The calmness in her eyes, and the perseverance hidden in the calmness, were exactly the same as grandma's.
However, before I could react, the middle-aged woman inside the door looked back as if she had made some mistake, and then quickly closed the door.
Just when she looked back, I followed her gaze and saw that there seemed to be another woman standing behind the white gauze curtain in the inner room of the room. That woman looked a little older.
And, and…
I dare not think about it any further.
The door closed with a bang.
I stood there and didn't come back to my senses for a long time.
The back view just now was so similar to grandma, I even thought that it was grandma.
Could it be that what Andrew said was true, and that grandma really played a crucial role in this matter. She was the person who talked to grandpa in the study that night.
If that's the case, why did she persuade me to quit participating in this matter in my room last night?
What kind of person is grandma? Does such a warm-hearted and kind-hearted old lady really have two faces?
I don't believe it and I can't believe it.
Grandpa said he told the mysterious man that he had already harmed two generations of the Zhou family and would not let go of the third generation. What does this mean?
Is my father still alive? Where is my mother? Are they in my position in this matter?
Countless questions poured out of my head instantly. I felt my temples were swollen and painful, and I couldn't focus on one point.
At this moment, two little bees flew to my ears and made a "buzzing" sound. I was suddenly startled and came back to my senses.
No, I have to find out. Even if it is really grandma inside, I have to face it. Blindly escaping is not a solution to the problem at all.
Thinking of this, I followed the previous method, knocked on the door three times, and then pulled it gently.
But this time, the solid wood door was silent and motionless.
I didn't give up and repeated it several times, but it still had no effect.
In desperation, I couldn't help punching and kicking the wooden door, but to no avail.
At this time, a male voice came from a distance: "Who are you and why are you here in this nursing home in the middle of the night?"
An old man walked quickly from a short distance with a flashlight, and soon he came to me.
"You kid, are you here to steal something?" the old man grabbed my wrist and asked.
At this time, Xiangyu, who had been waiting outside the door, must have heard the sound, and only heard her say: "My dear, are you hiding it? I'm here to catch you."
The old man looked at me, then at Xiangyu who came out of the grass, finally let go of my hand, and said angrily: "If you want to fall in love, go elsewhere. This is a sanatorium, don't affect it."
Rest for the sick.”
After he finished speaking, he pushed us both out of the door, and then locked a big lock on the door.
