The Emperor Bamboo Horse said he was sick

"Is it here?" Yang Ting's tone was a little irritable, and his expression was very unhappy.

Yu Junyi was digging the soil, and he shrank his neck when he heard the roar, like a quail, "Yes... I remember it's here..."

"What about that thing? Where did it go?" Yang Ting's tone was fierce, and he was about to cry regardless of Yu Junyi's expression.

"I... I don't know! I was buried under this tree at the beginning."

"Then why not?"

"How do I know!" Yu Junyi was also annoyed by the question, he waved his hands and stopped digging, and shouted, "Who knows who got it!"

"It must be the people from this inn," Yu Junyi thought more and more and felt reasonable, "Yes, it must have something to do with the people from this inn, didn't you see, when we got off the car today, they looked at us, there must be ghosts !"

……

The two brothers quarreled for a while, whispering for a long time, as if they had reached a certain consensus, filled the soil back, and returned to the building as if nothing had happened.

After the two left, Shi Qing finished the work in hand, went for a walk under the tree, turned over the soil, grabbed a handful and twirled them with his fingers, packed up the tools in his hand, and washed his hands carefully before Go knock on Lu Zeyan's door.

Xiao Tian was whispering to Jian Chuyao, Guan Qu was invited by Yang Ting to fight with him on the chessboard, Yu Junyi picked up the guitar on a whim and sang a few little love songs, and then suddenly sang a mysterious tune Ballad:

The pomegranates in September are so red, they bloom all over the hillside

You and I under the pomegranate tree, singing sweetly,

Pick the biggest one and give it to you, give you everything,

The mountain flowers withered and the pomegranates fell and the wind also cried for me,

Sow the seeds and grow new shoots September I'll be here waiting for you...

"This song?" Hearing the singing, Lu Zeyan and Shi Qing looked at each other strangely.

The two went downstairs following the singing, and saw Yu Junyi singing with a crying expression on his face.

Not only the two of them, everyone in the small building was attracted by Yu Junyi's singing and gathered together one after another.

After Yu Junyi sang for a long time, he suddenly trembled, "Huh? What happened, why are you all looking at me?"

Everyone looked at each other, confused, Yang Ting suddenly rushed up and kicked Yu Junyi: "Go back to the room quickly, you are a three-legged cat, and you dare to come out and sing for others, what a disgrace!"

Yu Junyi was kicked and staggered, dumbfounded, before he could say anything, Yang Ting grabbed his collar and carried him back into the room, just like carrying a chicken, Xiao Tian noticed that Jian Chuyao left in a hurry The two of them showed a gloomy smile.

Everyone's expressions were different, Lu Zeyan signaled Xiao Tian to take Jian Chuyao back, Guan Qu stayed in the living room and waited for the call, and summoned the rest of the people in the study.

Lu Zeyan didn't speak, Shi Qing didn't like to talk, Lin Yun didn't know what to say, and was speechless for a while, until Xiao Tian's bright red dress broke the silence.

"Preliminarily, I can be sure. Shi Qing's guess is correct. Jian Chuyao is Tong Xin." Xiao Tian cut to the chase.

"I chatted with her all afternoon. She pretended to be good, but she still showed some clues. When I mentioned Tong Xin, her expression was always abnormal. When I asked her why she called and didn't speak, she hesitated. I can't answer, the most suspicious thing is that when Yu Junyi went crazy just now, she was sneering."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Tian took a sip of water before continuing, "Besides, I found out that she and Yu Junyi met in September three years ago."

In September, it was October three years ago when Tong Xin was picked up by Lu Zeyan... Thinking of Yu Junyi's ballad, Xiao Tian judged, "I suspect that Jian Chuyao's death may have something to do with Yu Junyi."

Under Shi Qing's gesture, Lu Zeyan revealed what Shi Qing told him: "Today, Shi Qing heard Yang Ting and Yu Junyi quarreling in the back garden. The content is probably that Yu Junyi buried something under the pomegranate tree but couldn't find it... ..."

After Lu Zeyan finished what Shi Qing heard and saw in a few sentences, Xiao Tian quickly realized, "In other words, Yu Junyi has indeed been here before..."

Shi Qing was very helpless when he said to Lu Zeyan that he kept half of it and had to say, "The soil under the pomegranate tree was turned over two days ago."

"Huh? What do you mean? How do you know?" Lin Yun was at a loss, and Lu Zeyan didn't dare to intervene when talking to Xiao Tian, ​​so Shi Qing hurriedly asked.

"The softness of the soil is different, and it rained in City C the day before yesterday."

Lin Yun actually didn't understand much, but he didn't know what was going on, and he doubted the correctness of his conclusion that Shi Qing was an idiot.

September, the pomegranate tree, Jian Chuyao, Yang Ting, Yu Junyi, Jian Chuyao, and the things that disappeared under the pomegranate tree...

Everyone is sorting out these clues, thinking, communicating, and each has their own guesses.

Unknowingly, the sun was already in the west, and Guan Qu came to knock on the door: "Boss, it's five o'clock. Would you like to start preparing dinner?"

Cut off the conversation, leaving behind the thoughtful Xiao Tian and the confused Lin Yun, Lu Zeyan and Shi Qing went to the kitchen and started another bustle.

At [-] o'clock in the evening, the three of Yang Ting went downstairs to eat. Except for Guan Qu, everyone was watching them intentionally or unconsciously, and they really noticed something strange.

After dinner, everyone gathered in the living room to drink tea and chat.

"You brothers have such a good relationship! After my brother got married, he never went on a trip with me." Lu Zeyan chatted with them with a just right smile, noble yet peaceful, appearing well-bred.

"It's been a long time since we came out together. It's rare that we have time this time." Yang Ting has a tough face, as long as he is willing, it is easy to believe what he says.

"How many days do you plan to play this time?"

"Three or four days."

"I see on the ID card, all of them are from City F...Sorry, for inquiring into the privacy of the guests without permission..." Actor Lu's expression of guilt was sincere and unintentional, just right.

"It's okay, they've all been registered, it's hypocrisy if you insist on pretending you don't know."

"Mr. Yang is bold, is it convenient to ask about the work of Mr. Yang and Mr. Yu? It only takes two days to go back and forth from F City, and you can still play for four days. Such a long vacation is really enviable."

"Hmm..." Yang Ting thought about it for a while, and Yu Junyi immediately took over the conversation, "My brother works in a company, and I'm a programmer. We took annual leave. Chu Yao is a writer, so I have relatively free time."

"That's it... that's great, I've never experienced the feeling of going to work." Lu Zeyan looked regretful and longing.

"There is no freedom to be a boss at work. We still envy Boss Lu." Yu Junyi asked back, "Boss Lu has opened this inn for a long time, and the business should be pretty good?"

"It's okay. It depends on the customers. It would be better if there are more customers like this."

"Mrs. Yu is actually a writer? Then your love must be very romantic!" Xiao Tian said while looking at Lu Zeyan twice, with the appearance of a gossiping little woman yearning for love.

"We...we fell in love at first sight."

"Is it so romantic, can you tell me?"

"Two years ago, Chu Yao joined our company as an intern in order to find writing materials..."

Of course, Yu Junyi didn't ignore Lin Yun's weirdness when he heard him say two years ago, but he had already spoken, and he didn't know what the problem was, so he could only tell the story along the way while carefully observing everyone's expressions.

"It must be Madam Yu's idea to come to City C this time, right?" After Yu Junyi finished telling the story, Lu Zeyan continued the conversation in good time, telling Jian Chulian, "City City is not famous as a tourist city, but it is quite popular with literary and art masters." Beloved, many painters and writers have said that City C is a treasure land that can stimulate creative inspiration, and the business of these people is what my inn does most."

"Junyi chose it, and I didn't know there were such benefits." Jian Chuliao said in a gentle tone, tilting his head slightly at Yu Junyi and smiling sweetly. Yu Junyi didn't respond, but Lin Yun got goosebumps all over the floor.

"Mr. Yu is very kind to Mrs. Yu. If you don't mind, I can recommend some good places for you..." Lu Zeyan recommended all the famous attractions in City C.

"The pomegranates here are very famous. I'll pick a few for you to try tomorrow. They are guaranteed to be big, red, sweet and fragrant." Lin Yun finally found a topic he could get into, and followed Lu Ze closely. Yan introduced the local food and customs.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Lin Yun finished speaking, Jian Chuyao said that she was not feeling well and wanted to go back to her room to rest, with a strange look on her face.

Xiao Tian accompanied Jian Chuyao back to the room, Lu Zeyan and Lin Yun dragged Yang Ting to chat with Yu Junyi for nearly half an hour.

At nine o'clock, after there was no movement in the three guest rooms, everyone gathered in the study to exchange information.

According to the clues they have found now, they pieced together, sorted out, and roughly released some information:

[-]. Jian Chuyao is Yu Junyi's wife. According to Yu Junyi, she only met Yu Junyi two years ago, and now she is possessed by Tong Xin.

[-]. According to Tong Xin, she and Yu Junyi met here in September three years ago, and it is reasonable to suspect that Tong Xin's death was related to Yu Junyi.

[-]. The relationship between Yang Ting and Yu Junyi has become a mystery. The purpose of coming here is to find something that was buried back then. That thing is very important.

There are several key questions:

[-]. Does Jian Chuyue really exist?If it exists, where is she, and whether the brothers have noticed that Jian Chuyao is abnormal.

[-]. What happened three years ago, what Yu Junyi buried, why did he find it now, and where did it go.

[-]. The roles played by Jian Chuyao and Yang Ting.

"Jian Chuyue exists, and the brothers don't know that she has changed. Yang Ting has also been here, and it is also inseparable from Tong Xin's death." Shi Qing's words are simple, but every sentence is very powerful.

Lu Zeyan took a deep look at Shi Qing, and there was pride and admiration in his eyes that he didn't hide very well. The child is too smart, and the parents will be really proud. Unconsciously, he wants to be more proud, and wants to induce him to say more :"reason."

Shi Qing glanced at him resentfully, unexpectedly there was a sense of helplessness and indulgence in it.Shi Qing, who has always been a man of few words, speaks every sentence very slowly, but very clearly.

"Jian Chuyao got her ID card for six years, married Yu Junyi for one year, and Tong Xin died three years ago. It is obviously impossible to have such time and ability to create a person who does not exist at all, with perfect details and thoughtful details. And, according to Yu Junyi's pseudonym, you can find the book rumored by Jian Chu, which started writing five years ago, and the one that started last year is still serialized today."

"In the inn, Yu Junyi would show fear from time to time. His fear must be related to Tong Xin. If he knew that Jian Chuyao is Tong Xin, he would not be able to treat her with the current attitude."

"There is also that song. In September of a certain year, two people fell in love. One party gave everything but was hurt. After being reborn, he waits for the person who hurt him here." There will definitely not be a song in this kind of program for no reason , there must be a key clue.

"Obviously, a certain year refers to three years ago. Tong Xin and Yu Junyi were in love, Tong Xin was hurt or killed, and Tong Xin was reborn. It is reasonable to guess that Tong Xin controlled Yu Junyi to sing this song. On the one hand, it is to revenge Yu Junyi and deepen his fear; on the other hand, it is to tell everyone the truth about three years ago..."

Shi Qing's throat was a little astringent after talking so much, and he drank two sips of water slowly before continuing.

"Yang Ting and Yu Junyi are not brothers, and they are not even familiar with each other. Yang Ting can't tell Yu Junyi's occupation. Yu Junyi's claim that Yang Ting is a white-collar worker is obviously a fabrication. Then, what happened in this inn may be their closest connection. It's no coincidence that they came here together at this time, that is to say, these two people may have something to do with Tong Xin, and Tong Xin's death..."

Shi Qing's words caught everyone's attention, and their thoughts gradually became clear. When it fell into Lu Zeyan's ears, it reminded him of the past.
