【027】Antique shop
Vanilla was going to the city to get the blood test list, so the person accompanying her was naturally Wengen. Before leaving, she did not wait for Zhong Kui to come and send it, but walked towards the station alone without caring about it.
Vanilla did not alarm Xu Qian when she left the county town. Because of her fear and fatigue all night, she was still addicted to her dream. The woman who had been missing for a long time and had not seen her for many days appeared in the dream again without warning.
In the dream, she had no ability to resist, and was just so dull and mechanically standing in front of the woman. She was very close, frightened and anxious, and was in a strange atmosphere from all directions, but she could not have any power to break free.
The woman held a beautiful, delicate and delicate thing that looked like a rose. She handed it to her and said in a mysterious expression: "When the crystal rose blooms and loses, it is the key to the end of your life."
The woman's hideous smile disappeared into the dream when Xu Qian screamed in surprise. When she woke up, she was sweating all over and her close-fitting clothes were already wet.
I turned over and got up in a dizzy way, glanced at the vanilla bunk in a daze, it was empty, and then I suddenly remembered that she was going to the city today. There was an old-fashioned wardrobe in the room, and the wardrobe had a round mirror.
My steps drifted to the mirror and saw my hair messy, my face was pale, and my eyes were dark. This was all evidence of the unknown back last night. The incident last night was still vivid in my mind, but I couldn't tell who was right and who was wrong!
After washing my face and rinsing my mouth, I ate a little bit and walked out of the house. The tenants of Zhong Kui's family seemed to be very busy. Whether morning or evening, the yard was empty, as if there was no other person except Xu Qian and Vanilla.
The sky is gloomy. Xu Qian carefully calculates you. It is the second time that she came to the county town. The first time, the willow branch incident happened. After that, she left in a hurry. This time she must carefully look at the humanities and style of the county town and see if there is any new things to discover.
In the years when Zhong Kui and the others were not there, the county town has added many different projects and types of business owners. For example, the antique shop where Xu Qian walked into, she saw a piece of porcelain from the floor-to-ceiling glass windows outside the store, which was a vase.
It was the crystal rose in the vase that attracted her attention.
There seemed to be no one in the antique shop. Xu Qian's eyes were frozen on the vase and subconsciously walked in. She picked up the vase and looked at the crystal roses in the vase carefully.
Roses are so realistic. If they were not for the cold touch of fingers and without the unique fragrance of roses, they would think this was a real rose. The vase was also very delicate, with a colorful vase with a thin white porcelain base. On the vase, a charming woman leaned against the railing. Outside the railing was a lotus pond, with pink lotus flowers blooming in the lotus pond. Under the sparse and sparse lotus leaves, pairs of mandarin ducks snuggled together.
For some reason, she just glanced at it and looked at it. She fell in love with this rose and this vase, and held it with her and couldn't let it go.
Especially the woman on the vase, she gave Xu Qian the feeling that she was herself. Although the woman was very small on the vase, she was very exquisitely painted. Her lazy look leaning against the railing and her confused expression were all so thoughtful and pityful.
The sound of footsteps came from behind, and the instinctive consciousness told Xu Qian that the antique shop owner must have been back. When he turned around, he secretly wondered if the boss would be an elegant and funny old man.
When her eyes were really looking at each other, she was stunned... This person seemed familiar, but had no impression. Her mind suddenly fell into a boundless confusion, as if many things were pouring towards her, and it seemed that there was an intangible elves pulling away from her body.
He is not old and is a mature male. His handsome and elegant smile, and his charming smile unconcealedly releases infinite charm. A potential bewitching force almost confusing Xu Qian...
She paused, tried hard to restrain her panic, and after stabilizing, she hurriedly asked, "How much do you cost?"
The boss shook his head.
"Don't you sell it?" Xu Qian suddenly looked very nervous and pinched the vase with her fingers, not wanting to put it down.
"No." The boss's low voice, to her, was a familiar tone. "She is priceless."
"Priceless?" Xu Qian smiled bitterly, and finally reluctantly put down the vase and crystal rose. "It seems that I can't afford it."
"If you like it." The boss pondered, staring at Xu Qian with deep eyes.
Do you want to blackmail or because you like it? Xu Qian guessed secretly. She avoided the other party's gaze and looked outside. The streets that were only a few times just now have become lively.
"If you like it, I can do it." The boss's teeth are so white, just like vases and porcelain.
No! How could I give it to me for nothing? This is my first time here, and I have never met each other! Xu Qian glanced at the other party suspiciously and refused, "No, no, I can't ask for something from strangers casually. If you don't want money, I won't buy it."
The boss smiled bitterly, and didn't say much, and wrapped the vase in a quick way. "Ten dollars."
Xu Qian handed him ten yuan and left with a heavy vase.
The gloomy sky is unstable. Without the sun, it is extremely hot. This sultry heat indicates that the thunderstorm is coming. Rumble, and the dull thunder gods are sometimes far and sometimes near.
Xu Qian couldn't help but speed up her pace, but when she entered the door, she unexpectedly saw Zhong Kui at home.
A glass of wine, half a pound of dry pot of beans, and a pair of wooden chopsticks. Give it a bite happily, then tilt your head comfortably, squint your eyes, what are you thinking? I don’t know, anyway, my thinking is already messy at this moment.
Xu Qian saw Zhong Kui drinking again, and her heart hurt like she was stabbed by a needle.
Zhong Kui's eyes were blurred and he glanced at Xu Qian entering the house, holding something in his hand. He grinned and said, "What good things did you buy?" He put a glass of wine in his hand, and drank it all in one gulp.
Xu Qian had a bitter face, and her eyes fell on the Adam's apple that was exposed when she raised her neck. She was stunned and said, "Nothing, a vase." Then she remembered something and asked again: "Vanilla and the others went to the city?" Ask it knows that! It seems that the ghost-catching shop has not opened today.
Zhong Kui didn't seem to hear Xu Qian's words when he drank.
He sometimes frowned and sometimes pouted, and no one knew the pain in his heart. What happened last night made him feel disgusted with her who loved and cared for her so much, and her feelings were so strange.
Xu Qian entered the room, put down the object in her hand, peeled off the paper wrapper, and admired the vase with her liked it. Suddenly, a gust of wind came from behind. The vase fell to the ground with a skew, rolling for a long distance, and suddenly fell to the ground. The "其" fell to pieces!
