It seems that he really saw it wrong. Lin Banxia stroked the surface of the photo with his hand. He only felt a smooth touch, and did not find any strangeness. The rows of photos in this corridor are like some kind of memorial ceremony, recording everyone who once lived here. Judging from the order of the photos, Li Su and his family were the second owners of the house. After that, many people came and went in the villa, including big families and small families, but according to the time, it seems that every time Neither has lived in the house for too long.

When Lin Banxia was about to leave, she glanced at the old photo that was about to fade, and felt that she would have to bring Song Qingluo to take a look later, for fear that there was something wrong with the photo and the dull self ignored it.

After Song Qingluo finished taking a nap, she and Lin Banxia went out the door. They loosened their nerves and walked on the green-shaded path. There was still some distance from the villa to the gate. Lin Banxia was walking in front and was about to leave the yard when he heard Li Su's lazily voice next to him, as if he was talking to someone.

Lin Banxia looked over there, and sure enough, he saw Li Su under the small pavilion in the distance. Outside the pavilion, a layer of black gauze was covering it, blocking out the surrounding sunlight. Lin Banxia could only vaguely see it. his stature. He was sitting, Li Ye was half-kneeling in front of him, Li Su's foot was on Li Ye's knee, Li Ye was helping him put on his shoes with his head down, and he didn't know what to say. The foot is about to kick in. Li Ye reached out and grabbed Li Su's ankle, restraining him.

What the two of them said, the quarrel became more and more intense. It was said to be a quarrel, but Li Su was venting alone. Li Ye maintained an indifferent expression throughout the whole process, which made people feel dangerous. Lin Banxia looked a little worried. If Li Ye really wanted to attack Li Su, the little man Li Su would definitely not be his opponent. He was afraid that he would be beaten all over his face. However, just as Lin Banxia thought so, Seeing Li Ye suddenly bow his head, he dropped a kiss on Li Suxue's instep.

Lin Banxia was stupid on the spot, and Li Su was also stupid with him. He hurriedly wanted to retract his foot, but the person who grabbed his ankle refused to let go, and slowly put the shoe on his foot. , and then a little tying the shoelace is the end.

Only then did Lin Banxia realize that the two were not quarreling, but flirting, and immediately turned around and walked away, murmuring, "I thought they were really going to fight."

Song Qingluo was obviously not surprised by this, put his hands in his pockets, and slowly swayed outside: "Let's go."

Lin Banxia then came back to it and complained, "Damn it, you didn't even remind me if you knew it."

Song Qingluo said, "What if there was a real fight."

Lin Banxia said, "Does this look like you can fight?"

Song Qingluo raised her eyebrows: "It's not like they haven't fought before."

Hey, so there is still a story, Lin Banxia immediately regained his spirits and said, "Is it true? Li Ye is willing to fight Li Su?"

"Accurately speaking, it was Li Su who did something to Li Ye." Song Qingluo picked a leaf on the edge of the road, and twirled it with his fingertips, "At that time, Li Ye was still a child, maybe a teenager. Like a monkey, Li Su beat him up, he didn't cry, he just stared at Li Su so stiffly, but in the end Li Su was afraid first."

Lin Banxia recalled that in Russia at the time, Li Su had said about his encounter with Li Ye, and felt that Li Su should feel sorry for Li Ye, how could he do anything to him

"I know what you're asking." Song Qingluo continued, "In this fight, Li Su didn't keep his hand, and he almost broke Li Ye's bones. , secretly became the recorder..."

Lin Banxia: "..."

"The recorders are all ordinary people." Song Qingluo said, "There is neither a partner to protect their lives nor too many protective measures. To put it bluntly, they are ordinary people who take risks for the sake of money. Although it will take some time. Training, but this kind of training has little effect in the face of those things.” Whether it’s video images or text descriptions, I’ve heard it thousands of times from others, and it’s not as good as witnessing the shock of it with my own eyes. The price of this shock is usually his own life.

Countless recorders died on their first mission due to various strange reasons. Song Qingluo had seen too many, and naturally understood Li Su's mood at that time. Li Su was forced to do this. If he could choose, who wouldn't want to be a wealthy disciple who was leisurely all day, and he had to take such a risk.

He had no choice, but Li Ye had.

Li Ye has an infinite future. He has a tough temperament and is smart and precocious. Li Su picked him up from Russia, just to let him live the life of a normal person. No matter what the process was, the outcome was already decided. Li Ye entered the organization without hesitation, and was the most dangerous recorder. .

People who have no strengths can only become recorders, recording everything they see and hear with their own eyes, even if every stroke costs their own lives. How could Li Su, who knew all this, not be angry, how could he be willing to watch the child he raised so hard to become a victim just like himself

After Song Qingluo said this, Lin Banxia understood Li Su's mood. He felt a little emotional and said, "No wonder Li Su is so angry."

"Yes." Song Qingluo said, "If it wasn't for your uniqueness, and I was your partner, I wouldn't agree to your participation."

Lin Banxia said shyly, "Could it be that at that time, you treated me..."

Song Qingluo said calmly, "No, I just sympathized with you at that time."

Lin Banxia was inexplicable: "What sympathy for me?"

Song Qingluo: "Poor."

Lin Banxia: "..."

After a suffocating silence, Song Qingluo suddenly realized that when he uttered a certain sensitive word, it would not only hurt Lin Banxia, but also himself.

So after being quiet for a while, Song Qingluo decided to change the subject and said if there was a place selling porcelain in the town, he wanted to go check it out. When Lin Banxia heard this, she immediately became alert: "Did you bring any money?"

Song Qingluo: "I won't buy it, just take a look."

Lin Banxia said, "Just rubbing, don't you come in?"

Song Qingluo: "..."

Lin Banxia said aggrieved: "You just said you were going to buy me a house."

Song Qingluo didn't speak for a long time, and finally helplessly took out the bank card from his pocket and handed it to Lin Banxia. Lin Banxia was very happy to receive the card, and said what if the family supported Alipay, but Song Qingluo had already Very experienced, saying that Alipay has a daily limit of 100,000 yuan, and more can only be swiped, so Lin Banxia can rest assured.

Lin Banxia held the bank card with Song Qingluo's body temperature, and thought sadly, how the hell can she let go of her heart, it seems that she still has to watch Song Qingluo more closely.

Going out along the path, you will arrive at the town. The town is probably too far away, and the commercialization is not too serious. It is full of quaint atmosphere, which is interesting.

The sun was in the west, and the surroundings were still a little hot. Lin Banxia bought two popsicles at the small shop at the entrance of the town, ate one by himself, and gave one to Song Qingluo. The two touched the ice and watched as they walked, because they made porcelain, and there were all kinds of porcelain in the surrounding shops of all sizes, ranging from snuff bottles to large water tanks. However, there are no antiques here, all of them are just out of the oven, which should not be attractive to Song Qingluo.

After Lin Banxia thought so, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, and relaxed her watch over Song Qingluo. If they were not careful, the two of them left. Fortunately, the town is not big, so I can meet him later, so Lin Banxia didn't rush to contact him, and continued to browse the surrounding shops. From Lin Banxia's point of view, all these porcelains are beautiful, but Because it is a commercial product, it is a bit cookie-cutter, and many items can be seen in various stores.

Lin Banxia looked around, and suddenly in a small shop, she was attracted by a pair of beautiful blue-and-white porcelain vases that were placed in the corner. It's not very conspicuous, but for some reason, Lin Banxia noticed it as soon as he walked in. The porcelain bottle is not big, only about twenty centimeters in size, with a slender mouth and complicated patterns painted around it. Lin Banxia picked it up and took a closer look, but found that the pattern on the bottle was not an ordinary still life, but a painting of a figure. Look carefully, like a child standing in front of a huge villa, seems to be crying, surrounded by six adults, old and young. Looking ahead, as if there was something extremely terrifying in that house.

At first, Lin Banxia thought this was just a rare story-telling vase, but the more she looked at it, the more she felt that something was wrong. After careful consideration, she found that the villa on the vase was very similar to the old house of Li Su's family. It's structure and shape, how you look at it and how it feels like.

The family of seven standing in front of the old house reminded Lin Banxia of the family portrait he saw in the dining room of Li Su's house. He suddenly felt that the coincidence was a bit incredible, and said, "Boss, this porcelain bottle How to buy it?"

The owner of the store was a woman, sitting on the rocking chair next to her, with a fan on her face, and was taking a nap when Lin Banxia came in, and she was not interested in greeting her, so she replied lazily after hearing his question: "three hundred."

Lin Banxia said, "Three hundred? It's so cheap?" This porcelain vase was a pair, and it looked very beautiful, but I didn't expect it to cost only three hundred.

The boss said: "Add a 400 character after it."

Lin Banxia: "..."

The boss said, "Do you think it's too expensive?"

Lin Banxia put down the bottle silently, and said, "I still have something to do, so I'll go first." Not to mention that the bottle is just a painting of Li Su's old house, even if it was painted on the eighteenth generation of his ancestors, he would still It's impossible to buy it for three million.

The boss said: "Hey, kid, wait a minute, there is a sale and a sale, and you don't bargain. How can this be done?"

Lin Banxia thought about it for a while, and said the same thing, "Then can you make it less?"

Boss: "Are you asking for a price?"

Lin Banxia gritted her teeth, stomped her feet, and shouted a price that she could accept: "Three hundred and five!" It was fifty more than the price he had imagined.

boss:"… "

Lin Banxia said, "Is it okay?" After he shouted it out, he was really afraid that the boss would say that you take it away. Today's order is considered an open one. Lin Banxia has heard this kind of words countless times in the night market. As soon as I heard it, my heart trembled slightly, because this meant that he had raised the price.

The boss didn't say a word for a long time, and he didn't know if he was shocked by Lin Banxia's way of bargaining. Everyone bargained for a fraction. Lin Banxia was different. chopped.

Lin Banxia also felt a little embarrassed by the silence, and whispered, "Then... Otherwise, shall I add more?"

I don't know if it was Lin Banxia's delusion, but after he said this, the boss's tone was a bit more gnashing: "How much do you add?"

Lin Banxia said, "Five... ten?"

boss:"… "

Lin Banxia: "No more." Although he really liked this bottle, he absolutely couldn't set a bad example for Song Qingluo, otherwise he would have no stance to stare at Song Qingluo and stop spending money.

There was another silence. Just when Lin Banxia thought she was going to be kicked out, the boss waved the palm fan in his hand and said impatiently, "Qian swipe the QR code at the door, hurry up and hurry up."

Lin Banxia immediately thanked the boss with a smile on her face. He glanced at the boss several times and saw that the boss was a very young and beautiful woman with a graceful appearance and a gentle temperament. There was an enchanting beauty mole on the corner of her mouth, but it was not the same as her hand. The palm fan, and the old man's chair under him looks out of place.

This has nothing to do with Lin Banxia. He took two bottles and did not dare to ask the boss if he could pack them. He silently went to the door and scanned the QR code. He was afraid that if he said more, the boss would kick him out.

Satisfied, he spent 300 yuan to buy a bottle he liked, and Lin Banxia went to Song Qingluo happily. Not far from going out, he found Song Qingluo squatting on the side of the road. Song Qingluo was attentively looking at a stall with porcelain on the side of the road, as if he saw something.

Lin Banxia walked behind him quietly, and saw Song Qingluo's beautiful face that didn't eat fireworks, she calmly said to the boss, "Boss, you can add cash and Alipay. Pay?"

Lin Banxia: "..." Why is this sentence so sad.

The boss was also amused and said, do you really want handsome guy? So many things don't come cheap.

Song Qingluo said, "I'll pay the deposit first, you can send it to me at this address, and someone will pay the balance."

"Okay." The boss nodded and was about to agree when he noticed that Lin Banxia appeared behind Song Qingluo, with a ferocious expression like a ghost, trembling all over, "Handsome, handsome, is this your friend? ?"

Song Qingluo turned her head and saw Lin Banxia, who was looking down at him from a height, and took a breath.

Lin Banxia squeezed out from between his teeth word by word: "Just look at it or not?"

Song Qingluo: "..."

Lin Banxia: "Just rubbing, not going in?"

Song Qingluo lowered her beautiful eyes with a guilty conscience, her brows slightly furrowed, and she looked weak and weak. The sad appearance of this beauty really made people feel more at ease - no wonder! ! But Lin Banxia's mother clearly remembered the man in front of him looking like a wolf like a tiger on the bed. He knelt down tremblingly and crawled away, and he could also be pulled back a little by his ankles—

What a weak beauty, it's a fucking lie!

"Tell me, you haven't bought it yet." Noticing the porcelain bottle in Lin Banxia's arms, Song Qingluo, who was so guilty just now, suddenly felt confident, "Why don't you let me buy it!"

Lin Banxia: "Hey, guess how much is this bottle?"

Song Qingluo: "One hundred thousand?"

Lin Banxia: "Three hundred and five!"

Song Qingluo immediately turned around and looked at the hawker who offered him the price. The hawker was stared at by Song Qingluo's dark eyes, and quickly said with a dry smile, "I'll just shout, who knows handsome guy, you're serious." He thought to himself. Gu Gu didn't know what this handsome guy was doing, his eyes widened, and his legs were softened with murderous aura.

Lin Banxia originally wanted to teach the peddler a few more words to tell him not to bully people who are ignorant, but found that Song Qingluo stared at his porcelain bottle for a while, her expression was a little wrong, and she stretched out her hand: "Show me."

Lin Banxia asked dumbfounded, "What?" He handed the porcelain bottle to Song Qingluo.

Song Qingluo took it and looked at it carefully. The more she looked, the more solemn her expression became, and she asked, "Where did you buy this bottle?"

Lin Banxia: "It's in the store just now."

Song Qingluo said, "What does the person who sells it look like?"

Lin Banxia said, "She is...a pretty woman, with a beauty mole on the corner of her lips, she looks like she is in her thirties."

Song Qingluo's eyes changed immediately, showing a bit of panic, he said, "Take me there."

Lin Banxia hurriedly nodded and said ok. Although he didn't know why, he seldom saw the flustered look on Song Qingluo's face. After so many things, it seemed that no matter what happened, he would take it indifferently, and nothing could make him mess up.

Is there really a problem with the porcelain bottle? Lin Banxia led the way in confusion, and took Song Qingluo to the store where he bought the porcelain bottle just now.

It's just that the female boss who sold him the porcelain bottle disappeared, and there was a bald man sitting at the door enjoying the shade. He still had exaggerated tattoos on his arms.

Song Qingluo stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me, is the female boss who sold this porcelain bottle still there?"

The big man said impatiently: "What female boss, I'm the only one here!" He raised his head, saw Song Qingluo's face, a malicious smile suddenly appeared in his eyes, and said frivolously, "Yo, or you come here! The female boss here?"

It was the first time that Lin Banxia saw someone dare to say such things to Song Qingluo, and her jaw almost dropped in shock.

Song Qingluo has never been a good-natured person, otherwise the companions in the base would not be so afraid of him. His good-natured temper was only given to Lin Banxia. As for the others—

Song Qingluo directly stretched out his hand, and the big man was still teasing. After all, Song Qingluo's hand was slender and fair. No matter how he looked, he didn't look like someone who could fight, but rather like a piano player. He didn't move, just watched the hands stretched out in front of him, and then—choked his neck. The big man wanted to break free by conditioned reflex, but when those seemingly delicate, beautiful hands like a woman grabbed his neck, he realized that these hands were not as fragile as he thought, no matter what he used. No amount of strength can shake it.

In this way, Song Qingluo lifted him abruptly. A person weighing more than 200 kilograms was as light as a thin piece of paper in Song Qingluo's hands.

Song Qingluo had no expression on her face. She pinched the person's neck with a cold expression. Seeing that person's face was gradually turning purple due to suffocation in her hands, her eyes gradually began to slacken, and her struggle became weak, as if the next moment, she would be suffocated. To really die in Song Qingluo's hands.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Lin Banxia called out Qing Luo in a low voice, Song Qingluo's black eyes flashed, and the hand that was grabbing the man's neck instantly loosened.

"Cough-cough-" The big man fell to the ground, coughing non-stop, his bruised face quickly returned blood, he gave Song Qingluo a frightened look, got up from the ground and turned around and wanted to run, who knows he hasn't run yet After a few steps out, I heard a cold "go back" behind him.

The sound was not loud, and it seemed like a spell to stop the big man from trying to escape. He turned his head tremblingly and looked at Song Qingluo, as if he was looking at a monster.

"Where's the female boss in your shop just now?" Still the same question, still the same tone, Song Qingluo's voice was soft and not like a question, but in the ears of a big man, it was more terrifying than a question.

"No, there is no female boss." The big man was covered in cold sweat and was stared at by Song Qingluo, and even took a step back involuntarily, "I am guarding this store by myself, what is there... a female boss... "

Song Qingluo looked at Lin Banxia with questioning eyes, and Lin Banxia said, "Really, I bought this pair of vases from the female boss."

The big man glanced at the porcelain bottle and shook his head in a panic, indicating that he had never seen this thing at all.

At this time, even Lin Banxia could see that he really didn't lie, but he clearly bought things in this store before.

Song Qingluo and Lin Banxia looked at each other, and they turned around and entered the store tacitly, leaving the boss alone, standing at the door and wanted to go but didn't dare, so they could only hide beside the door tremblingly, as if She is a weak woman who was ravaged by evil men.

After entering the store, Lin Banxia was sure that he remembered correctly. The decoration of the store was exactly the same as what he saw just now. Even the rocking chairs and palm fans were still there. Except for the disappearance of the female boss, nothing else had changed.

"I saw her here." Lin Banxia pointed to the rocking chair, "I remember very clearly what she said to me when she was sitting here."

Song Qingluo walked to the rocking chair.

Lin Banxia continued to look around, and soon, he found it and said in surprise, "Qing Luo, look at that plate."

Song Qingluo raised her head and looked at the place Lin Banxia said. On the cabinet not far from them, there was a round blue and white porcelain plate. On the porcelain plate, a blue pattern was drawn to depict a young woman sitting Enjoying the shade on the rocking chair, the woman is holding a fan in her hand, and her demeanor is leisurely.

Song Qingluo reached out and took the porcelain plate over, rubbing it heavily with her hand, as if confirming something.

Lin Banxia didn't dare to say a word beside her, and waited quietly. She didn't know how long it took. One minute, or five minutes, Song Qingluo, who was as still as a sculpture, suddenly opened her mouth.

He said, "Panxia, do you know what I've been looking for?"

Lin Banxia shook her head, indicating that she didn't know.

Song Qingluo tilted her head, leaned gently against Lin Banxia's ear, and said softly, "My mother."

Lin Banxia froze in place.

The author has something to say:

Lin Banxia: Could it be... You are the legendary...

Song Qingluo:

Lin Banxia: Little tadpoles

Song Qingluo: I promise not to fuck you if you come here.

Lin Banxia: 0.0
