Pictures of pomegranates

Chapter 39 The mystery of the back
"Xixi, do you really not know that you have a birthmark on your back and shoulder? I remember you didn't have this thing on your body when you were a child. Could it be the result of a lightning strike???" Xie Kangnian's tone was full of disbelief, and his voice interrupted Xie Rouxi's random thoughts.

Xie Rouxi said: "It's true, Grandpa, I have a birthmark on my body. How could I not know it? And the skin is very smooth, and there are no unevenness in the birthmark. You are not lying to me, are you?"

"I'm not kidding, look at the photo for yourself, it's weird, like a tattoo!"

With that said, Xie Kangnian took out his cell phone, took a photo, and handed it to Xie Rouxi, who was frightened.In the photo, a small light red birthmark appeared on Xie Rouxi's back. Looking carefully, the pattern of the birthmark turned out to be a blooming flower. The appearance of the flower made Xie Rouxi look very familiar.

“Mr.

"It doesn't seem like it, it's the durian flower in "Durian Picture", exactly the same as the pattern we drew from there. How, how could this thing become the birthmark on Xixi's back? Xixi said no, I also remember her I didn't have this thing when I was a kid!" Xie Kangnian's voice was trembling a little.

The durian flower that was supposed to disappear suddenly turned into a birthmark, which made both Xie Kangnian and Wen Bo, the old Jianghu, uneasy. The secrets they thought they had buried long ago had to be revealed in their minds one by one.

When Xie Rouxi heard the three words "Liu Shihua" in "Liu Shi Tu", she immediately shouted: "I know, it can't be a birthmark. "Liu Shi Tu" is an old book, and there are all different shapes in it. The pomegranate flower is a picture album given to me by Teacher Xie!"

“Mr.

Xie Kangnian also said calmly: "Xi Xi, what do you know about this picture album? Who did you meet when grandpa was not at home? Who is Teacher Xie? Tell grandpa quickly!!"

Looking at the panic expressions of the two old people, Xie Rouxi realized that she had let the slip. She didn't know how to transfer Zhang Zhaodi's experience to the current eldest lady, so she could only bite her lips subconsciously. The man stood up without saying a word.

Under her seemingly silent appearance, she was actually racking her brains to find a way. Lying was not her strong point.

Fortunately, Xie Kangnian loved her the most, and he was deeply afraid that this incident would irritate Xie Rouxi again, and her granddaughter, who had finally come out of trouble, would become autistic again.Therefore, Xie Kangnian changed his tone and said as calmly as possible: "Xi Xi, it's okay if you don't want to say it, but we can't go to the party tonight. This matter is a bit troublesome. You can't let others know that you have something on your back. We need to have a good chat about this birthmark.”

"Grandpa, why can't others see this birthmark? What trouble will it cause??" Xie Rouxi hesitated and asked.

"Many people only know that "Liu Shi Tu" is a treasure that can change the owner's destiny and luck, but they don't know that it is a key, a key that leads there!" Wen Bo sighed.

"Baby? "Pure Fruit Picture" is actually a treasure???" Xie Rouxi took a cold breath.Xie Kangnian looked solemn and hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Uncle Wen is right, it is indeed a treasure, but this matter is very complicated. Xixi, the less you know, the better. For the sake of safety, you still have to Tell grandpa exactly how you got "Pictures of Fruits and Fruits". One more thing, is the album "Pictures of Fruits and Fruits" with you now?"

"Grandpa, the picture album is gone. I, I don't know what to say about this. If what I say is outrageous, will you believe it?" Xie Rouxi asked hesitantly.

"Believe me, grandpa will believe whatever you say!" Xie Kangnian nodded without hesitation.

Seeing that her grandfather believed in her so much, the immature Xie Rouxi almost wanted to tell the truth for a moment, but her working experience as Zhang Zhaodi still made her more wary, and she suppressed the urge to tell the truth.Xie Rouxi tried to tell them her previous experience in a way that Xie Kangnian and Wen Bo could accept.

She said that a few days before she was struck by lightning, she went shopping one afternoon and came across a new restaurant that had just opened.Seeing that the environment inside was very good, Xie Rouxi decided to go in and have afternoon tea. Unexpectedly, not long after she sat down, she saw an aunt who was being made things difficult by the store because her wallet was stolen, and she accused her of eating the Overlord meal.

Perhaps out of a moment of conscience, Xie Rouxi paid for the aunt's meal and kindly solved the problem for her.The aunt who was very grateful to her warmly invited her to sit in her bookstore and said she wanted to thank her in person.Xie Rouxi couldn't refuse, and she didn't know why, so she followed her aunt to the private bookstore by accident.

It was a bookstore hidden deep in an alley. The store still looked very old. My aunt said that this store had been open for almost a century and it was the property of my grandfather's generation.On weekdays, the business of the bookstore depends entirely on the care of the old neighbors around it, so that it can continue to this day.

The aunt also told Xie Rouxi that her surname was also Xie. Because she had been a kindergarten teacher in the early years, acquaintances who came to the bookstore called her Teacher Xie.In this way, the two strangers chatted happily and soon became familiar with each other.Just when Xie Rouxi was about to leave, Teacher Xie found a special picture album and gave it to her in order to thank her for her kindness.

Teacher Xie said that although this picture album is an old book, it is a very special and rare rubbing, so she must take good care of it.Therefore, Xie Rouxi took the "Pictures of Pomegranates" home, but the day before Xie Rouxi was struck by lightning, she found that the picture album was missing from the bedroom.For this reason, she lost her temper at home and suspected that someone had stolen the picture album.

As for what happened next, Xie Rouxi said she couldn't remember it clearly, and she didn't understand why Liushihua's birthmark appeared on her back and shoulder.Her explanation sounded reasonable and reasonable. Judging from the reactions of Xie Kangnian and Wen Bo, it seemed that they were recognized by the two old people, and they did not ask any further questions.

However, with the sudden appearance of durian flowers and the appearance of this pattern behind Xie Rouxi, it was impossible for Xie Kangnian to do nothing.

After he was silent for a while, he said to Wen Bo: "You should contact Mao Madam right away and ask her to come to me as soon as possible. Xixi can't have an accident. This matter needs to be considered in the long run!"

"Grandpa, what accident will happen to me? Will someone die if I have this birthmark?" Xie Rouxi asked.
