271 Chapter 271 A visit to the universal warehouse

There are still three days before my little brother and I are discharged from the hospital. Recently, the brothers and sisters of Qilin Pavilion have finished their work and have come to the small courtyard one after another. The more people there are, the more clean rooms they will prepare. That's it.

Cleaning up the room is usually left to Bai Hao. With a wave of his hand, the inside of the house will be instantly renewed, and the furniture and furnishings inside can be placed in an orderly manner in an instant. It is simply a clear window without any contamination. Motes of dust.

When it comes to mysophobia, if Bai Hao is ranked second, then no one would dare to admit that he is the first. In his eyes, my little mysophobia is just mysophobia, and I am afraid that I am not even in the top five in terms of mysophobia.

Liyue is very attentive and prepares everyone's daily necessities and so on, and leaves it to her every time.

On the day Wu Xie arrived at the small courtyard, Fatty came to the small courtyard to meet him. At the same time, Wu Xie could no longer restrain his inner desire for discovery, and his curiosity had reached its peak. What he wanted to do most at the moment was to return the favor. He wanted to visit the mysterious warehouse in the backyard again, and this time he planned to let Fatty accompany him on a trip to the small courtyard warehouse.

After dinner that day, they went back to their respective houses to rest.

It was a quiet night. It was late at night. The silver moonlight shone on the ground of the small courtyard. A breeze blew by. The jujube branches and leaves in the courtyard were swaying and the salads were rustling.

Until late at night, the two of them quietly found their way out of their rooms. The agreed time was coming, and they arrived at the third entrance and the door of the "Universal Warehouse" as promised.

When Fatty sent Wu Xie off before, he had already told Fatty about this warehouse, so they came prepared this time. They were afraid that the door would be locked and they would not be able to get in, so they even brought a small lock pick.

In order not to make too much noise, they walked to the door quietly. Wu Xie pulled Qilin's door handle, and the fat man started to put the small clip into the keyhole to unlock it. After a while, he heard a clear " With a click, the door opened.

The fat man winked at Wu Xie, meaning "walk".

They pushed the door open gently, for fear of making any noise. The fat man looked inside first. There was only one light on in the warehouse at night, and that was the warm yellow light from the window of Uncle Zao'er's room outside. of glimmer.

Wu Xie winked at him, and they planned to sneak around inside and take a closer look from the edge.

They took out the flashlight they brought with them that could adjust the brightness, adjusted the light to the lowest level, and shined it on the shelves in front of them. There were numbers on the shelves, and there was also a metal sticker with a cartoon animal expression... The one closest to them was The image of a chubby little mouse.

Wu Xie suddenly felt familiar and stretched out his hand to point to the fat man, but the fat man looked at it and had no clue.

Wu Xie took another look at the shelf next door. There was also a sticker like this on it. Next to it was a calf with a nose ring and a smiling face. Looking further ahead, on the next shelf was a domineering cow with a big mouth. The cute tiger is full but chubby. The icon next door is a small round rabbit holding a carrot. Wu Xie thought, it seems that the number of this shelf is the twelve zodiac animals. The style of this picture makes it look like a little girl. masterpiece.

He reached out and touched it, then thought about it again, and suddenly thought of mouthing to the fat man: "Sea Tomb."

The fat man thought about the small stickers like this in the undersea tomb, and his eyes widened for a moment. He then used orchid fingers to do some hair on his ears, making a girlish gesture, which meant that they had once interpreted life and death in that place. I saw it on the stone tablet at the door.

Wu Xie suddenly became more interested in searching for the truth. He didn't expect this sticker to appear here. Does that mean that the sticker belongs to Xiaoxun, and it is the younger brother she has been following? All of this is indeed related, but even if this sticker is Why is Xiaoxun's in the undersea tomb? The stickers in the tomb have already confirmed that they are a certain age. Xiaoxun must have been born at most.

As he was thinking, the fat man patted his arm. He turned around and saw that the fat man was staring at a porcelain bottle. Wu Xie looked at the bottle with an extremely complicated mood. The thing in front of him no longer looked familiar. He quickly used His eyes scanned the pattern on it and looked at the other bottles and jars next to the porcelain bottle. This was something he had actually seen. He said to the fat man extremely softly: "Isn't this the porcelain bottle from the undersea tomb? Why is there..."

The fat man shrugged. Of course, how could he know? He gritted his teeth and squeezed out words from between his teeth: "I'm telling you, this girl is definitely not simple. There is something like this in the undersea tomb, and the things in the undersea tomb are so... Yes, it’s so evil, I think she really needs to be interrogated.”

Wu Xie said: "Look again." He followed them and continued to look, only to see a row of large and small boxes on the next shelf, which are the kind of storage boxes that can be sealed and kept fresh.

They looked at the icon on the shelf. This time it was not a small animal, but an image of a beetle.

They looked at each other, and the fat man said, "Would you like to open it and take a look?"

Wu Xie thought for a while and hesitated. On the one hand, he felt that sneaking into someone's warehouse in the middle of the night was unjustifiable and still doing it. On the other hand, he was afraid that what he saw would make the mystery more and more complicated. But after some thinking, Wu Xie nodded.

Then they reached for the first box at the top. This box was about the size of a fist. They calmed down and gently opened the box. What came into view was a sealed cyan corpse cricket specimen inside the box. This thing was exactly The kind seen in tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

The second box next to it was a strip box about twenty centimeters long. The fat man picked it up and opened it. Inside was a thick and long blue centipede, although it was carefully processed and sealed. It was a specimen, but the centipede was unusually ugly and even a little scary. The fat man almost threw it out, but luckily he was able to control his big fat hands.

Wu Xie put down the corpse box and opened the next third square box, which was as small as a ring box. This time he did not hesitate and immediately opened the lid. His heart skipped a beat when he saw that it turned out to be a bright red corpse. There is a small glass bottle next to the Cock King, which contains the eggs of a gray corpse Cock King.

Wu Xie took a breath and continued to look down. Then they opened the boxes at the back one by one. They found a bottle of white hair, a few unknown scales, a strand of black hair that looked like human hair and a section of hair. Black lumpy objects that look like bones...

The fat man exclaimed: "The white hair is not the hair of the white-haired Hanba, right? Then the scales are from the sea monkey, and the black ones are the hair and bones of the forbidden woman?"

Wu Xie was also surprised and said: "I guess so."

The fat man said: "Damn it, this damn thing must have been made by a master... The question is, why do you collect these things? What kind of hobby is this?"

Wu Xie shook his head: "I don't think it's a hobby. It should be collected as a record. These things are not so easy to collect. This is Xiaoxun's home. There is such a master in her home. Who could it be? "Here." The fat man said: "You don't care who he is, keep reading, there might be something even more awesome."

Wu Xie nodded and continued, and they continued to watch,

The fat man rubbed his forehead, opened the boxes in his hand and muttered: "Xue Maozi, Cao Pizi, Feng Ling Mozi...I'll go!"

Wu Xie said: "Look at these large boxes, they are all individually packaged. The color of this one should be the scales of a double-scaled python, the fragments of the corpse dragon jar, and the last one is a box of meteorite jade fragments. "

The fat man said: "This variety is quite comprehensive. I must have been to these places to collect these things."

Wu Xie frowned and took out his mobile phone and showed the fat man the photo of me and my little brother that he had taken.

The fat man suddenly felt unbelievable and said: "Isn't this girl in the photo the girl Xiaoxun? This is just a comparison of twins' looks. There is no difference. But the age is not right. Could it be her mother in the photo? Then Is she my brother’s wife or my daughter?”

Wu Xie glanced at him helplessly and said: "Xiao Xun obviously likes Men You Ping, and Men You Ping's love and care for Xiao Xun is definitely not a father-daughter relationship. The girl in the photo no matter her appearance, temperament or demeanor , I also think it’s Xiaoxun, but the age doesn’t match.”

The fat man shook his head and said: "Then the little brother and Chen Wenjin haven't been so young for decades, and the same goes for this little girl Bao Buqi."

Wu Xie muttered: "No, a person's appearance can be ageless, but if a person has rich experience, the childishness of a born child will gradually disappear, but Xiaoxun is still in the state of a child, I can feel that that childish and innocent feeling cannot be faked.”

The fat man curled his lips and said, "Let's not bother studying. Just do what I said and just tie him up and interrogate him."

Just when Wu Xie was about to retaliate against the fat man, a light suddenly turned on behind Wu Xie. The fat man suddenly took a breath of cold air. Wu Xie was so frightened that he was covered in white hair and sweat, and he did not dare to look back.

They heard a deep voice say to them: "Boy, it's getting late. If you want to visit here, you can come here during the day."

Wu Xie's heart was pounding wildly. He turned around in confusion and saw in front of him a middle-aged man holding an old-fashioned oil lamp and wearing a Chinese black robe. He looked very handsome, but he had a calm and composed look. With the feeling of going through many vicissitudes of life, Wu Xiexin said, this is probably the Uncle Zaoer that Xiaoxun mentioned.

But if they were in a stranger's house, they would probably be beaten and sent to the police station. For a moment, they didn't know what to say.

Uncle Zaoer arrived first and said, "The master has told me that you two are important guests. If you need anything, you can tell me. If you need to find something in the warehouse, I can also help."

Wu Xie said hurriedly: "Just take a look, take a look. I'm sorry to disturb your rest so late. We have finished reading. We will go back after packing up."

Uncle Zao'er looked at the things on the shelves behind them that had been opened, but said to them: "It doesn't matter, I'll just clean it up."

Wu Xie was a little scared, but he felt that it was not appropriate for them to make a mess and let others clean it up. Just when he was about to speak, the fat man said: "Look, it's all a mess for you. I'm sorry for causing you trouble, isn't it? We won't cause trouble for you anymore, I'm really disturbing you, I'll treat you to a drink later, what's the matter, we'll leave first, I'm so sorry." As he said this, he pulled Wu Xie and started to retreat.

Uncle Zaoer slowly turned around and watched them. The fat man walked faster and faster, and soon they walked out of the warehouse.

The fat man didn't say anything after leaving the house. He pulled Wu Xie and ran to the front yard without looking back. He ran all the way to the room where Wu Xie lived. He breathed a sigh of relief when he turned on the light.

Wu Xie looked at him and asked, "What are you doing? It's like you've seen a ghost."

The fat man asked him: "Let me ask you, have you seen that person?"

Wu Xie said: "No, I guess he is Uncle Zao'er who Xiaoxun said was in charge of the warehouse."

The fat man said: "When did you find him coming behind you just now?"

When asked this, Wu Xie was a little panicked and said, "No, if he hadn't turned on the light, he wouldn't have noticed anyone coming."

The fat man said: "He was dressed in black in the middle of the night, and he was elusive. He may have been standing there for a long time. We didn't feel anything. He is definitely not an ordinary person. I felt very scared. Did you see his shadow just now?"

Wu Xie said: "I didn't pay attention to this, but his clothes and his temperament really don't look like a modern person. I think it may be because it is night and there is no one else in the backyard, so it is a bit desolate. In addition, we I saw those things, so I got a little nervous.”

The fat man said "Yes" and said: "It's too weird, but the owner he mentioned should be a little girl. Even if he is a ghost, he probably won't hurt us. There is nothing to be afraid of. Well, it's really not too early, then let's Let's rest now. I can't figure it out after thinking about it, so why not sleep first and think about it later when my mind is clear." The fat man stretched his waist and said, "Is there nothing wrong with you? If nothing happens, I'll be bored. "

Wu Xie smiled and said, "I'm fine. You can go to sleep. My mind is confused right now and I can't sleep."

The fat man patted him: "Don't think so much, don't put so much pressure on yourself. Come on, I'm going back to the house."

After saying that, the fat man went back to the house to rest. Wu Xie sighed. He couldn't sleep that night. He got some strange clues, clues that seemed very clear but very confusing.
