Chapter 3 Never open the door
Black cat?
I have to say that this cat is really black, with not a trace of color all over its body.
If it weren't for those golden eyes, it would be really hard to spot Li Suijiu.
So, he made a face at the black cat, and at the same time, he replied in a more lazy voice: "Meow what? Silly cat!"
As soon as these words came out, the black cat seemed to be frightened. His golden eyes looked at Li Suijiu, and then he jumped off the wall with a slight jump.
Run away? Li Suijiu raised the corner of his mouth, "Talents are the primates of all things, how can they be scared by a black cat.
However, this cat seems to be quite humane?
If we come again, maybe we can raise it in a small courtyard.
Getting ready to close the window.
Suddenly, his body froze in place.
Wait.
Black cat? A pair of golden eyes?
Is there a possibility that this is the black cat they were talking about who designed to hang Zhao Si during the day?
Naturally, Li Suijiu didn't believe Zhao Si's ridiculous statement that he refused to share the fish and was then hanged by a black cat, but judging from the black cat's appearance, there was no doubt that it was the one.
"It's strange, why did this black cat come to my yard? If it's for the fish, Zhao Si has already stolen the fish in my tank."
Li Suijiu was confused, but he didn't think much about it.
In fact, if he really wanted to be confused, he felt that the purple moon hanging in the sky was even more strange.
However, each world definitely has its own characteristics.
Since Da Xian does not exist in the history that exists in his memory, then, by the same token, it is probably reasonable that the moonlight in this world appears purple.
"Cuckoo!"
My stomach made a noise again.
"Isn't Qian'er here yet? Forget it, I'll cook by myself."
Li Suijiu was born in the mountains, so he had no problem cooking, so he walked out of the study and prepared to go to the kitchen to see what ingredients were available.
As soon as I walked out of the door, I saw two figures walking towards the door of the courtyard, a man and a woman.
One of them was actually the woman in black who held the Fuxiantang signboard during the day.
Li Suijiu remembered that the fat cadre once called the woman - Shopkeeper Ji.
Both of them wore black hats, black tunics, black cowhide boots on their feet, and black belts around their waists.
"Ji Qingzhu of Fushantang has met Li Huaijin. Huh? Is Li Huaijin going out so late?" The woman in black seemed to have noticed Li Suijiu and said hello directly.
Being able to call him by his own name, it seems that Shopkeeper Ji knows him well.
Li Suijiu said politely: "It turns out to be shopkeeper Ji. I wonder if shopkeeper Ji is passing by or has something to do with me?"
"Just passing by." Ji Qingzhu smiled gracefully, and then added: "Of course, if Li Huaijin wants to buy a coffin, I don't mind."
I mind!
Li Suijiu also smiled back: "Sorry, I don't have this need for the time being."
"Really? But I heard that Li Huaijin hanged himself yesterday? He just happened to be saved by someone." Ji Qingzhu stared at Li Suijiu with his phoenix eyes.
This Ji Qingzhu is really good at talking.
After Li Suijiu thought for a while, he replied: "Alas...it's a long story, but now I have figured it out and am ready to concentrate on preparing for the Qiu Wei exam."
"Well, even 'Yang Fu Zun' has personally praised Li Huaijin's talent. In this case, I wish Li Huaijin in advance to be named to the gold list."
"Thank you so much, shopkeeper Ji." Li Suijiu cupped his hand.
"By the way, when Li Huaijin hung himself yesterday, did he see a black cat?"
"When you hang yourself?" Li Suijiu looked at Ji Qingzhu's casual expression, but knew in his heart that this might be the question Ji Qingzhu really wanted to ask.
It's just that he had seen a black cat just now, but he really didn't see it when he hanged himself.
"No, I never saw a black cat when I hung myself."
"Well, it's better for Li Huaijin not to go out when it gets dark." Ji Qingzhu nodded, and then said: "It's best not to linger in the courtyard anymore and get some rest early."
After saying that, Ji Qingzhu called the men who were traveling with him and left together.
However, as soon as he took two steps, Ji Qingzhu turned around and said: "If Li Huaijin hears someone knocking on the door at night, he must remember not to open the door!"
"???"
Li Suijiu was confused.
Knock on the door?
Besides Qian'er, who else would knock on his door this late at night?
That black cat?
Seeing that Ji Qingzhu was about to leave, Li Suijiu couldn't help but ask: "What if the other party keeps knocking on the door? If he doesn't open the door, won't it affect his sleep?"
Ji Qingzhu obviously didn't expect Li Suijiu to ask this question. After being stunned for a moment, a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Maybe Li Huaijin can try a wooden stick!"
"Don't you need a knife?" Li Suijiu asked again.
"Knife? If you have one, of course it would be better." Ji Qingzhu smiled even more weirdly: "It's just that Li Huaijin is a famous scholar in Yinhua Mansion and a serious scholar. Does he have a knife at home?"
"Never."
"Want to buy? Although our Fu Shan Tang mainly sells ingots, candles, coffins, and sesame oil, we also occasionally sell knives."
"Don't buy."
"Since you don't want to buy anything, then don't tease the businessman." Ji Qingzhu cursed with some annoyance, and then continued: "However, what Li Huaijin said today is quite funny, and it is really impressive."
After saying that, without saying another word, he turned around and left.
After Li Suijiu saw Ji Qingzhu walking away, he looked at the courtyard wall again. He didn't see the shadow of the black cat again, so he didn't think much about it and turned around and entered the kitchen.
The kitchen at home is very 'ancient' in layout.
There is an iron pot on the earthen stove built out of the yellow mud, and some firewood is piled next to it.
Uncover the pot.
There were actually five steamed buns, a plate of green vegetables, and a bowl of winter melon and minced meat soup.
"It turns out Qian'er left lunch for me!"
This can only be blamed on his lack of memory, otherwise, he would have come to the kitchen early to check.
Although the food was a little cold, Li Suijiu directly picked up the winter melon meat soup and drank it, and then finished the steamed buns and vegetables in one go.
It smells so good!
After eating, Li Suijiu prepared to go back to the bedroom to wait for Qianer.
But when he walked to the door, he suddenly found a woodcutter placed next to the firewood pile.
Li Suijiu walked over, took the woodcutter in his hand and waved it twice.
The woodchopping knife is not long, but it is sharp enough.
"I didn't expect that I actually have a knife!"
Li Suijiu put the woodcutter in his arms, then hummed a song and returned to the house.
"That night, you didn't reject me, that night, I hurt you..."
Entered the house.
Then he closed the door and looked at the wooden bolt behind the door. After hesitating for a while, he inserted the wooden bolt tightly.
Just bolted the door.
There was a slight sound of footsteps outside the hospital.
Then, there was the sound of the courtyard door being pushed open again.
Li Suijiu is sure that someone has entered his yard!
Then, the footsteps came straight towards the bedroom, and after a moment, they stopped at the door.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
There was a heavy knock on the door.
Without Ji Qingzhu's reminder, Li Suijiu would have immediately thought that Qian'er was here, and then decisively opened the door and gave her a big hug.
But now Li Suijiu feels that he should at least ask.
"Who?"
"Li Xiucai is me!"
The voice was extremely sharp, and it was a man's voice.
It’s definitely not Qian’er.
So, Li Suijiu spoke again: "Who are you?"
