Early the next morning, it was another sunny day.
It was rare for Tang Xi to sleep past the biological clock, and when she woke up, she heard laughter from outside and Shi Rui's loud yelling.
Feeling tired is not only due to physical and spiritual exhaustion, the more important reason is actually blood loss. It seems that it is better to use your own blood less as a medium in the future.
After getting up to wash and change into a change of clothes, she opened the door, squinting her eyes at the oncoming sunlight.
"Xixi, you're finally up." Qi Sihui waved her hand and ran towards her hut, "I'll get you breakfast!"
"Thank you." Tang Xi came out slowly and yawned.
"Tired?" Cheng Yihang asked.
"I accept the bed." Tang Xi replied casually.
"Speaking of which, it's normal for her to be like this, how did you and Qi Sihui sleep last night!" Another yawning Shi Rui complained, "Lightning and thunder in the middle of the night, even if this is a canyon, it's not so strange What’s the weather like? Today’s morning news has all reported it, and it seems that tourists in the camping area took photos and uploaded them to the Internet. The strangest thing is that after thunderstorms for so long, it didn’t rain at all.”
"What news?" Cheng Yihang interrupted him.
"Really." Shi Rui's face was a little weird, "Mr. Xia of Huantian, do you know that all the water pipes in Xia's villa burst last night, and the situation is terrible. Even the police have stepped in to investigate whether someone intentionally caused an explosion to cause murder .Heard about bursting pipes, but ever heard of pipes bursting and spraying water all over the house?"
"I've heard of it now." Cheng Yihang said disapprovingly, "If someone murdered, why didn't you blow up the gas pipe, what's the point of blowing up the water pipe?"
"It also makes sense." Shi Rui scratched his head.
"Xixi, here." Qi Sihui ran back and stuffed Tang Xi with two date paste and hazelnut cupcakes.
"Cake! Sihui, you are really a must-have item for home travel!" Tang Xi's eyes lit up. Although he ate so much last night, he consumed too much. Now he is already so hungry that he is so hungry. Open the One gobbled it up.
"Not enough." Qi Sihui quickly handed her a bottle of jasmine tea.
Tang Xi's cheeks were bulging, like a little frog exhaling air, took two sips of tea and swallowed the food in his mouth.
"By the way, why didn't you suffer from insomnia last night?" Shi Rui looked at Qi Sihui again.
"My house's sound insulation is not good. The couple next door quarrel in the middle of the night every day. I'm used to wearing sound-proof headphones to sleep." Qi Sihui smiled sheepishly.
"..." Shi Rui was very hurt.
"Okay, let's pack your things first." Cheng Yihang raised his voice.
This is just right, Tang Xi's bag is simpler than the boy's, basically it is in the state of carrying it and going straight away.
While Shi Rui and Qi Sihui were packing up, Cheng Yihang took out a box and handed it over.
"What?" Tang Xi held the cake in one hand, put down the tea and took it.
"It's inconvenient if the phone is broken." Cheng Yihang explained, "I called a staff member to deliver it early in the morning."
"It's 200 kilometers away from the city?" Tang Xi was shocked. Anyway, I'm going back today, so it wouldn't make people go back and forth for five hours overnight just to give away a mobile phone.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yihang looked at her with even more surprised eyes: "Qingxi Gorge is more than 200 kilometers away from Jiangnan City, but more than ten miles to the north is Linhai Town. Many employees in the scenic spot are from Linhai Town, and they were asked to come to work this morning. How big a deal is it to buy a mobile phone first?"
"..." Tang Xi played dumb.
It must have been too much consumption last night, so my brain temporarily went on strike!
After swallowing the cake in a few bites, she opened the box. Well, the latest model of the fruit phone, which was only released this year, is pearl white, an unmistakable color for girls.
"I'll pay you back later." Tang Xi took out the broken phone, took out the card, put it into a new phone, and turned it on.
"No, it's considered a work loss and reimbursed." Cheng Yihang shook his head.
Tang Xi suddenly realized that he had been using Cheng Yihang as a guide, and almost forgot that he was another employer, and he really should pay for it!
"Ding dong! Ding dong!" After navigating for a novice mobile phone, as soon as he entered the main interface, more than 30 messages popped up one after another.
After blocking all kinds of advertising information, most of the rest were sent by Mr. Xia last night. It was probably because she couldn’t get through the phone and changed it to a message. There was no reply. She remembered what she said about being with Cheng Yihang before calling. Cheng Yihang's mobile phone.
The last one is a bank message.
Tang Xi froze for a moment, then subconsciously counted again. Six zeros, not half a million, but five million.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Yihang asked.
"It's okay." Tang Xi smiled and turned off the phone.
The business she did, because the opponent was too unexpected, of course it was a loss of 500,000, but she still has this reputation, and the negotiated price will not be set on the ground. It's only natural for Mr. Xia to pay 500,000 yuan, 5 million yuan, it can be regarded as an expression of wanting to make friends outside of business.
Tang Xi likes rich people with a clear mind, such as Cheng Yihang, such as Mr. Xia, so she took this olive branch. Just the blood she shed last night is worth the five million.
After a few days, the Xia family will be settled properly, and they will have a meal or something, and the friendship will be stabilized. Afterwards, Mr. Xia or his friends will come to her when they encounter troubles in this area, which can be regarded as her source of customers.
Soon, several people packed up.
After all, he was a young man, even if he didn't sleep well at night, he was still alive and kicking when he played. After visiting the last few scenic spots, the car that Cheng's family picked up just arrived, but on the return journey, they didn't have the energy to play cards like they did when they came here. The four of them slept in the leather seats all the way.
Cheng Yihang sent Shi Rui and Qi Sihui home first, and the third one didn't send Tang Xi, but went directly to Cheng's house.
"Huh?" Tang Xi blinked in confusion before she woke up.
"You wait for me in the car for ten minutes." Cheng Yihang said, opened the door and got out of the car.
"Oh." Tang Xi thought about it for a second, then decided to close her eyes and continue to sleep. She didn't wake up until the car started again.
Not murderous, safe. Even if you want to kidnap her and sell her, the unlucky one will be the other party, so it doesn't matter.
"Tang Xi, wake up, I'm at your house." Cheng Yihang shook her with a helpless expression.
It wasn't that he insisted on waking people up, but that the car had been parked at the gate of Jinhuyuan Community for almost two hours, because Tang Xi wouldn't let the doorman wake up.
"Ah..." Tang Xi yawned again and rubbed his eyes.
The car was finally able to enter the gate and drove downstairs.
"Go back to bed and go to bed. It's best to make some ginger soup at night." Cheng Yihang instructed.
"I see, I see, you are really virtuous." Tang Xi smiled.
Cheng Yihang rolled his eyes, got out of the car with her, opened the trunk, brought out the largest black suitcase, and put it on the ground.
Just look at the raised dust and the muffled sound of "dong", you know that the box is very heavy.
"What?" Tang Xi was a little confused.
"What you want... that." Cheng Yihang was confused for a moment.
"So big?" Tang Xi was dumbfounded.
"It's an ancient tree that five people can't hug." Cheng Yihang was speechless.
The implication is that there are only a few boxes like this.
"Okay, thank you." Tang Xi laughed dryly, and then looked at the box with extra fiery eyes, as if she had never come out of the doze before.
"Help you lift it up?" Cheng Yihang asked.
"No, no, thank you." Tang Xi waved his hand quickly, and dragged the suitcase into the corridor door.
Millennium lightning strikes the locust tree! Lots of!
Although this is the best soul-cultivating wood, it is not that it cannot be used to make utensils. This thing has a high affinity and good compatibility with yin qi, so the celestial master is not willing to use it-who would want his magic weapon to fight demons and ghosts without pain or itching
However, nourishing the soul, if you think about it in reverse, it can lock up the ghost without harming the ghost.
In other words, this is the best material for making Ghost Prison.
Tang Xi thinks that when encountering homeless ghosts in the future, the heinous ones will be dismissed directly, and the kind-hearted ones will be accepted into their families, and there is also a kind of homeless ghosts who are too guilty to die - lock them up and talk about it after the reformation!
After dragging the suitcase home, Aunt Zhang had already prepared delicious snacks. Of course... What Yu Mingfan welcomed her was a thick stack of test papers and wrong question books.
"Wait, I will do what I can!" Tang Xi surrendered with a broken face.
After appeasing the devil tutor, she almost dragged her suitcase and rushed into the study.
Yun Qi and Su Huang appeared beside him, one on the left and one on the right.
"We will have a new home soon." Tang Xi excitedly opened the suitcase.
This time she went to Qingxi Gorge to make it clear that she was going to fight, so she only brought Yun Qi and Su Huang with her. Fortunately, Yun Qi said that Su Huang's notebook was just mortal paper, and her opponent was a water ghost. It would be troublesome if it got wet, so I kept it in my soul and took it away.
Of course, Yun Qi was very upset that there was one more shared tenant.
The interior of the suitcase is covered with a thick velvet pad, and there is a rectangular piece of wood inside. The wood grain is marked with time, and there is a desolate and ancient charm, while the end of the wood looks like it has been burned. , It was pitch black, and a little burnt.
"Lightning strikes wood." Tang Xi touched the surface of the wood, his eyes seemed to be shining.
"What are you planning to make?" Yun Qi asked.
"You don't need such a big piece to raise your soul, and you have to consider portability. I plan to take the core to make a bracelet, and the leftovers, um, can be used to make utensils." Tang Xi thought for a while and said, "Carpentry work I'm not good at it, and I don't have any tools at home, so I have to find a reliable craftsman to do the initial work, and then I will carve it myself later."
"Qin." Yun Qi said suddenly.
"What?" Tang Xi was taken aback, not understanding what he meant.
"Guqin." Yun Qi added another word.
"Do you use it?" Tang Xi asked suspiciously, "Are you tired of the flute, do you want to change to another instrument? But the pagoda piano, the power to deal with ghosts will be reduced."
"Isn't it just right to deal with living people?" Yun Qi smiled happily, "For living people, locust tree increases resentment—"
Tang Xi finally realized that this was going to be used to deal with those Taoist scum. With Mr. Pei's ability, it is possible to clean up the moths in the family and not cause trouble for her, but people from the Taoist sect, from the moment she beat Zhang Sheng in the hospital, this Liang Zi cannot be solved.
"But..." Su Huang who had listened for a long time interjected weakly, "Even if you build a piano, it's still a real thing. Can it be used by ghosts?"
"That's fine. I made his flute." Tang Xi raised her chin.
"That's great!" Su Huang's eyes lit up, she rushed forward and hugged her arm and said, "Xiaoxi Xiaoxi, I want a weapon too!"
"Okay, what does Sister Su Huang want to use?" Tang Xi responded.
"Finger cots!" Su Huang said without hesitation, "If you use your nails directly every time, it will be very troublesome to have your nails done when you come back."
"..." Tang Xi couldn't help but twitched the corner of her mouth.
Ghosts need a manicure? What logic!
However, she nodded in agreement, but the Lightning Strike Wood is wood after all, and its body is too brittle to be used as a melee weapon. Anyway, if you have money now, why not go to Taotao to see some rare metals.
Later, in line with the principle of not bothering one thing and two main things, Tang Xi called Cheng Yihang again, asking him to find a reliable and skilled carpenter, and explained his requirements in detail.
However, to her surprise, there are still people who meet the requirements, and she doesn't even need to look for them.
The Cheng family is mainly engaged in tourism and a series of derivative industries, and there will be a shopping mall selling souvenirs in any scenic spot. The wood carvings in Qingxi Gorge are already famous, but they are here to play this time, so they didn't go to the store. Walk.
So, Tang Xi, who had just returned home, finished a large stack of papers, and followed Cheng Yihang back to Qingxi Gorge early the next morning.
In order to attract tourists, the shopping mall set up an additional display area outside the processing area. There are masters working here, and there is a piece of glass between the store and the store. If tourists are interested, they can see how a handicraft is polished by the master. shaped.
What Cheng Yihang introduced was the chief person in charge of the processing area. The old man had white beard and hair, his eyes were blurry, and his fingers were covered with thick calluses. Probably because he had given instructions in advance, he didn't ask any more questions. After looking at the raw materials, he just said: "Bracelets are relatively easy. If the little girl is willing to wait, I can make them today. But Guqin is more troublesome, not only the process is complicated , and the material and tuning of the strings…”
"No strings, no paint." Tang Xi shook her head.
"That's it." The old man was startled, and then said, "Just wait, it will be a little late."
"It's okay, I'm very interested in woodcarving and want to watch it." Tang Xi said.
Hearing this, the old man frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything, and he didn't even ask for help. He picked up the piece of wood weighing dozens of kilograms and went to his exclusive workshop.
"Go get busy if you have something to do, I'm fine." Tang Xi waved her hand with a smile, and she sat next to a woodcarver to watch him carve.
"Okay, call me if you have something to do, I'll just go there to clean up the aftermath." Because someone was there, Cheng Yihang didn't make it very clear.
"Hmm." Tang Xi didn't even look at him.
The woodcarver immediately became more serious.
However, Tang Xi looked at it for a while, and was a little disappointed with the young master's craftsmanship.
The carver is good, and the things he makes are beautiful, but unfortunately he has no soul, he is just a craftsman, not a master. Of course, for a store in a scenic spot, beauty is enough.
She got up and asked a staff member who seemed relatively free, because she was brought by Cheng Shao, and the man gave her a whole new set of carving knives, and said that the wood here could be used casually.
Tang Xi picked up a commonly used knife and turned it around in his hand, um...what to engrave
Soon, sawdust fell down one after another.
The woodcarving master she had observed before looked up, and immediately had a horrified expression of seeing a ghost.
It doesn't matter how good or bad Tang Xi's carving is - I can't tell what she is carving at the moment, but if I read correctly, the piece of wood she is holding is a small piece of wood originally from Australia. Although the acacia tree is often used to pass off as black sandalwood, it is several times harder than black sandalwood! But this thin-looking little girl doesn't seem to be exerting any force at all, so relaxed and comfortable, is she actually peeling the little acacia tree like tofu
He was so shocked that he even stopped his work and stared blankly at Tang Xi's fluttering hands.
Of course Tang Xi knew that someone was staring at her, but she ignored it.
Although the craftsmanship is average, but I still know how to study, um, maybe I can improve!
In order for the "students" to see clearly, she slowed down specially.
When I was in the Zongmen, all the disciples may not know other miscellaneous knowledge, but they can know a little about carving and smelting. After all, magic tools and so on are always the most suitable for them to make by themselves.
It is Tang Xi's habit that once she is fully absorbed in one thing, she will not notice the passage of time. When she finally stopped and looked at her preliminary completed work, she found that the old master had already read it. for a long time.
"Grandpa, what do you think of my engraving?" Tang Xi showed off her work with a smile.
It was a graceful woman, with long hair floating up, covering most of her face, only one eye was exposed, but it made people imagine her appearance even more, but the lower part of the woman was not legs, but a snake tail.
The old man's expression was a little complicated.
Originally, he thought that the little girl didn't trust her when she said that she wanted to stay and observe—he knew the value of the piece of wood in his hand. However, he did not expect that this child really knew how to carve, and that work was even more spiritual than the few apprentices he had brought! However, the girl's fingers are slender, her skin is delicate, and she has no calluses or scars from holding the carving knife for a long time.
Is there really such a genius in this world
"Nuwa's carving is pretty good." The old man nodded slowly, and put a string of bracelets in front of her, "You asked for a semi-finished product, and I was worried about you ruining it, but it seems that I was too worried. "
There are a total of 18 bracelets, because only the most essence of the wood is taken, and the beads are not big, but if they are too big, they will not look good on a girl's slender wrist.
"Thank you, grandpa." Tang Xi realized that more than two hours had passed.
"Miss Tang, there is only a working meal. Are you eating with us or with Cheng Shao?" Someone asked.
"Give me a copy!" Tang Xi said immediately, rubbing her belly.
"Okay!" The young man happily went to get her a lunch box.
After lunch, Tang Xi went to ask for a magnifying glass with a stand, which aroused everyone's curiosity.
This is... a tool for micro-sculpture, right
This time, Tang Xi was obviously more serious. He picked the smallest carving knife and rubbed it on a bead for a long time before carefully lowering the knife.
The finely divided wood powder was flying, and others couldn't see what the dense lines on the beads were carved on. Only Yun Qi stood beside her silently.
That is... an ancient house, which he once painted for Tang Xi, his home.
She restored his home in the Thunderbolt Wood.
"Huh~" Tang Xi gently blew off the remaining powder on the surface, very satisfied.
Of all the things she has sculpted since she was a child, this time she has definitely performed supernaturally! While the feeling was still there, she immediately asked, "What kind of home do you want?"
There is no one, but Su Huang knew that she was asking her. The red figure appeared on the other side, lying lazily on the table, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Actually, the tree house is very good, but I don't like eating apples. Can I eat apples?" Peach instead?"
"Okay." Tang Xi chuckled a few times, and according to her request, engraved a peach forest on the second bead, and a more delicate tree house on the largest peach tree.
Putting down the carving knife, she looked at the remaining sixteen blank beads, and was more satisfied with her idea.
From now on, she won't have to carry a notebook with her. Ghosts like Aunt Zhang, Yu Mingfan, and Yueyue's mother and daughter don't need to be carried away by her all day long, and bracelets are much safer than notebooks during battles. It can also repair the consumption of the ghost after the battle, so it can be done in one fell swoop!
Yun Qi and Su Huang turned into two strands of resentment and got into the beads. Tang Xi felt that the string of beads in his hand seemed to be a little heavier, and put it directly on his left wrist.
There is no polishing, no varnish, no waxing, and the original color of the lightning strike wood is completely preserved. At first glance, it may feel a little rough, but the more you look at it, the more natural it is.
"Tang Xi!" At this moment, Cheng Yihang hurried in.
"What's wrong?" Tang Xi was taken aback.
Cheng Yihang's expression was ugly, and he motioned for her to go to the corner, and then he said, "The female corpse from the clear water lake has been fished out."
"Didn't it be fished out yesterday?" Tang Qiqi said, "It's all floating on the water, and the police just went through the motions. What's wrong today?"
"Not to mention that a female corpse that sank in the lake for a month actually remained dead for less than three days, and then quickly decayed into a tragic state one month after death in one day, which completely violates science. A group of forensic doctors are working day and night Research—" Cheng Yihang said a long list in one breath, took a breath, and continued, "The most important thing is that the police want to find out why the body has been found and now it has surfaced by itself, so today they sent professional frogmen to go into the water , In the end, another female corpse was fished out!"
"..." Tang Xi looked at him stupidly, and said after a while, "What?"
"There is an extra corpse in the lake!" Cheng Yihang collapsed, "I heard that it was caught by a rock under the water, or it would have floated up together yesterday."
Tang Xi was silent for a long time before accepting this fact, but said in doubt: "But I didn't feel another water ghost in the clear water lake, not even a trace of the existence of a soul."
"I know the reason." Cheng Yihang explained, "I heard two sentences from the police that the woman's body was killed in another place and then thrown away. It is estimated that the soul is in the place where she was killed."
"Qingxi Gorge is a scenic spot. Why do you throw the corpse here? Unless it is a tourist who kills people passionately and throws the corpse on the spot. Because of the existence of the black flood dragon, it is normal for the corpse to not float up." Tang Xi said.
"I don't know about this..." Cheng Yihang smiled wryly, "The police judged that this corpse died longer, earlier than the woman who jumped into the lake."
Tang Xi frowned. He died a long time ago. If the deceased's obsession is not deep enough, the soul may have already dispersed. Even if they were killed, not all victims would become ghosts.
And there is another question, the person who dumped the corpse has entered the valley, if the water of the Bishui Lake was touched during the process of dumping the corpse, is he still alive? It's a pity that the black flood dragon's spirit and soul were completely wiped out, and there was no way to verify whether there was a third victim. Because the black flood dragon only has two souls in his hands, she can only hope that there are no souls—then this case will be solved better.
Hmm... No matter what, forensic doctors have to be bald. I hope this case won't be the responsibility of the poor Chu Li again!
"There is one more bizarre thing." Cheng Yihang said again.
"This is already bizarre enough." Tang Xi said.
"It's even more outrageous." Cheng Yihang stared at her, "Although this female corpse is in exactly the same condition as the previous one, and it decayed quickly when it came into contact with the air, I still saw her appearance when she was alive—I just saw her a few days ago. pass her."
"Huh? Say it again?" Tang Xi was also dumbfounded.
A woman who has been dead for more than a month, Cheng Yihang said, he only met a few days ago
"It's not just me, you've seen it too." Although Cheng Yihang's words became more and more absurd, his expression was extremely calm and organized, obviously not nonsense, "I went to the haunted house that Shi Rui mentioned last time, Received a bunch of wishes from the dead."
Tang Xi was startled, then a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he blurted out, "Those red high-heeled shoes?"
The author has something to say: I am ready to enter the next dungeon, hehe, the male lead will be released tomorrow in the intermission, but there is really no emotional scene.
Wouldn't it be better for a successful adult male to have thoughts about a 16-year-old female high school student
There is a male protagonist in this article, but the male protagonist has three correct views, the female protagonist focuses on her career, and the emotional drama is slow to heat up!
In the early stage, the male lead and the female lead were friends and cooperative relations. If you want to fall in love, you must at least have the female lead be an adult, right
Don't urge me to show affection, the author also has three views, and refuses to fall in love before entering university.
