This Antique is Haunted


Chapter 325: Requiem [1]

Views:

Since that day, An Jiu seems to be in love with creating new dishes.

Meng Xiaotao was now able to clean the dust with a duster calmly, listening to the explosion from the kitchen by the way.

It was about An Jiu's food that day, which made Xiao Xuan a psychological shadow.

He didn't like to go to school, he got up early for several days, avoiding An Jiu's breakfast time.

When I come back, I can delay as long as I can, and I can’t wait to miss the dinner time.

Once these two can't be avoided, he immediately lay down and pretended to be dead, which is useless to anyone.

Because the people in the store have a psychological shadow on the creative dishes An Jiu made, they refused to eat it anyway.

He was a little depressed, so he could only pour the prepared dishes to the stray animals on the corner of the street.

As a result, within a couple of days, none of the stray animals nearby disappeared, even An Jiu occasionally saw them outside.

They all explode and make threats.

In the end, An Jiu had no choice but to close the mountain.

I couldn't help sighing that a superstar that was able to rise up, now can only fall slowly because of everyone's non-cooperation.

After there was nothing to do, An Jiu resumed his usual routine.

The entire antique shop seems to have fallen into the same daily routine.

In the quiet years, one or two guests came in from time to time to ask, and listened to the flapping of the wings of the birds in the cage from time to time.

Meng Xiaotao's face still wore the usual silly appearance. When he was free, he would follow An Jiu and tear each other there. In the end, Gu Huaiyu couldn't stand it and stopped them.

An Jiu dangling his tail leisurely, his eyes closed, as if he enjoyed the feeling of the sun falling on his body.

Meng Xiaotao held something indifferently, flicking the dust on the shelf, seeming to be thinking about something important.

"Let's talk, what are you thinking." An Jiu sat up and asked her with a serious expression.

Meng Xiaotao was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted.

She pursed her lips, as if she was thinking about nothing. His tone was normal. "What else can I think about? Just think about the recent business in the store. It seems to be better than before. Let me see if there is anything I can do. improved."

An Jiu sneered in disbelief, and walked towards her slowly, his eyes seemed to be able to discern her thoughts, "We have known each other for at least a hundred years. What are you thinking about? Although I am not very clear, it is definitely not. The thing you just said."

Meng Xiaotao stopped talking. After a long time, she turned her back to him and said, "Don't ask so much. I can't be sure now. I will tell you after I am sure."

An Jiu seemed dissatisfied with her answer, turned into a human form, walked in front of her, and grabbed the feather duster that was about to be bald by her.

"You don't come to this set. You can't say anything directly. You have to wait for you to confirm it before you can say it." An Jiu's tone was very dissatisfied.

Seeing that he had snatched the feather duster away, Meng Xiaotao didn't care, so she found a place to sit down and took a book from the side to look through it.

An Jiu was simply pissed off by her attitude of hiding things from her and refusing to say anything.

"Don't tell me!" An Jiu said angrily, then changed back to the prototype and ran away to stay elsewhere.

He was afraid that if he continued to stay there, he might have to pinch Meng Xiaotao again.

After An Jiu ran away, Meng Xiaotao put down the book in his hand, looking at the direction he left with a complicated expression, and finally turned his gaze on the bird who had not made a word since he was brought back by Gu Huaiyu. .

That bird seems a little different from ordinary birds.

The fluff on its body is all pale yellow, but there is a pinch of bright red on the position of the head. That pinch of fluff stands up, with a long bird tail, it looks very majestic.

Meng Xiaotao thought of the key that she had found in the gap between life and death, and her heart moved slightly.

She looked at the gate first, but no one came in.

Then his gaze fell on the inner hall.

No one came out there.

Boss Gu went out early in the morning because of something, but An Jiu was angrily ran away just now.

As for Xiao Xuan, he knows it himself, so there is no need to worry that he will speak out.

Thinking of this, Meng Xiaotao’s heart beat a few minutes faster.

She gently put down the book in her hand, and then walked lightly towards the birdcage.

It seems to be aware that the opponent's target is himself.

The birds in the cage flapped their wings and flew around in the cage.

Seeing the bird's movement in the cage so big, Meng Xiaotao immediately walked to the front of the cage in fright and stretched out his hand to make it quiet.

But it is of no use.

The birds in the cage are still very moving.

Seeing this, Meng Xiaotao knew that if he continued to waste time, he would provoke people.

So she kept doing nothing and opened the bird cage.

Regardless of whether the bird in the cage touched or hit her hand, he fumbled for it based on the location in the memory.

But after groping for a while, there was nothing inside.

Meng Xiaotao thought for a while, put her hand back, and looked at the bird cage in front of her.

Finally, the bird cage was taken down, and then together with the bird in the cage, it shook it in mid-air several times.

But there was no sound of metal collision in the memory.

Meng Xiaotao really understood now, knowing that there shouldn't be the key she was looking for here, and she couldn't help but feel a little lost for a while.

Maybe she made the movement a little louder.

An Jiu, who had ran away, ran over again.

Seeing the panicked birds flying around in the cage, look at the regretful Meng Xiaotao standing in front of the cage...

"What are you doing?" An Jiu walked quickly to her, snatched the bird cage from her hand, and then hung it back to its original position.

Meng Xiaotao pursed her lips and shook her head, "It's nothing, I just haven't heard this bird make a sound, so I tried to see if it works."

An Jiu curled his mouth and said, "Don't you know what kind of bird this bird is? How can you make a random sound?"

Meng Xiaotao looked at him suspiciously, "I really don't know."

An Jiu: "..."

As if feeling defeated by the other party’s ignorance, An Jiu sighed and sat not far from the bird in the cage. He explained, “This is the legendary requiem bird. Under such special circumstances, the sound will be heard."

"I don't know what that particular situation is, but I heard it make a sound once."

An Jiu seemed to be in a memory, "That voice is very beautiful, it can be said that it is a rare voice in life."

"But just shortly after it finished singing, not far from it, an old man died there."
