Chapter 70 Neurosis

Lu Jiaxin asked in a low voice: "Which box is the one where the calligraphy and paintings are placed? Let's lift it up first."

Gu Wenfeng pointed to the upper box on the far left, then stepped forward and took it down. He even opened it very thoughtfully and showed it to her.

After Lu Jiaxin took a look, he stepped forward and opened the exposed box. This box is filled with books, and the books are arranged neatly.

She picked up a book and opened it carefully and shined a flashlight on it. They were all in traditional Chinese characters, and they were in classical Chinese format from right to left.

Gu Wenfeng pointed to the box on the far right and said, "This box contains all kinds of bottles. I don't understand them either, but they are all beautiful."

Lu Jiaxin knew what the secret passage looked like and didn't want to stay any longer. She pointed to the box he put at his feet and said, "Brother Gu, let's lift it up first."

"good."

Lu Jiaxin warned again: "Porcelain is easy to break, so be careful when you lift it."

After saying that, I felt more and more unsafe to carry it up. This secret passage was dark and dark, and a box of porcelain would be scrapped if it fell.

Seeing that she suddenly stopped talking, Gu Wenfeng reminded: "Miss Lu, our yard suddenly became quiet. I'm worried that the house behind will knock on the door. Let's carry the box up quickly, and Xue Mao and I will pick up the rest later. .”

Lu Jiaxin felt that he had thought too carefully: "I listen to Brother Gu."

As soon as the pole was put on his shoulders, Lu Jiaxin felt something was wrong: "Brother Gu, wait a minute, the weight is wrong. There shouldn't be calligraphy and painting underneath."

Gu Wenfeng hummed and said: "There are only five sets of calligraphy and painting, and the rest are paper, pen and some weird stones."

Strange stones? Lu Jiaxin thought for a moment and guessed it was ink or an inkstone, but she wasn't sure until she looked at it. It's dark and midwinter here, so it's not a place to see anything.

 Although there are ink or inkstones underneath, the box is still very light, weighing about three or four kilograms. The box is also too big, otherwise Gu Wenfeng could carry it on his back.

 Ink is a very fragile thing, so Lu Jiaxin walked slowly. When she arrived at the exit of the secret passage, she whispered that she would carry the calligraphy and paintings up first, and then use a backpack to carry the things up in batches.

Although this is a bit troublesome, it can indeed protect the contents of the box to the maximum extent. Gu Wenfeng: "Then you go up first, I'll wait here."

After Lu Jiaxin climbed up, she heard someone shouting outside: "What are you doing with the door closed in broad daylight?"

This voice was familiar to her. It was Old Mrs. Sun from the Second Courtyard. The old woman took advantage of her so much that no one in the neighborhood disliked her.

Lu Jiaxin stuffed the calligraphy and painting into her luggage bag, then hurried out, came to Xue Mao and asked, "What's going on?"

Xue Mao shook his head and said: "I don't know. The old woman from the second courtyard suddenly knocked on the door. I said that I was taking a nap with Brother Gu and had something to talk about later. Unexpectedly, she started shouting."

 Bang, bang, bang, there was a knock on the door, and then Mrs. Sun shouted: "Open the door. If you don't open the door, I will call the neighbors to come and see..."

Lu Jiaxin quickly washed and dried her face, then took off her outer blouse and grabbed her hair with both hands. She ran to the kitchen, picked up a kitchen knife and opened the door.

Old Mrs. Sun saw that Lu Jiaxin was about to throw dirty water, but before she could say anything, she saw the dazzling knife in her hand. She pushed back the words that came to her lips and said with a forced smile: "What, what are you going to do?" Lu Jiaxin raised the knife, stared at Old Mrs. Sun fiercely and asked: "If you have the ability, can you say what you just said again?"

 Old Mrs. Sun saw that she was about to chop someone, so she couldn't help but take a step back.

 Because of Old Mrs. Sun's shouting, there were already several onlookers. One of them asked: "Girl, if you have something to say, please put down the knife first."

Lu Jiaxin didn't put down the knife. She said to Old Mrs. Sun: "Why I closed the door in broad daylight is not to prevent you two thieves. I just moved here and I didn't know that my brother didn't close the door when he went shopping on the street, so he brought it here The ax and kitchen knife disappeared, as did more than 30 yuan in the bag. It’s my brother who is honest and didn’t settle the score with you. I would have called the police immediately."

Mrs. Sun was so angry that she cursed: "Who do you think is a thief? We have never touched your things."

Lu Jiaxin pointed the knife at her and asked: "You didn't come here to steal anything, why did you knock on my door so hard? My brother didn't open the door for fear that you would wake me up, and you said some dirty things. Don't keep your words. It’s clear, I’ll chop you up.”

Old Mrs. Sun shivered in fright, but she quickly raised her head and said, "You need to be shot to kill someone. If you dare to touch me, you will be shot, right?"

Lu Jiaxin raised the corners of her mouth and revealed a malicious smile: "I am mentally ill. If I am insane, I will kill you without having to pay for it with my life."

Xue Mao’s eyes almost popped out. In order to frighten this old woman by pretending that she was a lunatic, Sister Xin really spent a lot of money.

  Grandma Sun looked at her pale little face and protruding eyes, and it seemed that she was indeed not normal. Thinking about how their family was making medicine every day, I couldn't help but feel timid and stammered: "I, I'm here to borrow a hammer."

Lu Jiaxin mocked: "You take other people's things as your own in the name of borrowing. What's the difference between you and stealing? No, the thief at least knows that this is shady. You are robbing blatantly."

Several people watching felt that this girl's mouth was like a knife.

Old Mrs. Sun would fight people, throw things around and curse people, and even go to people's homes to threaten her life and death. She was also invincible in this area. But today, she didn't dare to scold Lu Jiaxin. If she really offended this lunatic, she would have to suffer a lot if she stabbed him several times without dying. He would even have to pay for the medical expenses himself, and the most he could do for this lunatic was to lock him up.

  "Forget it if you don't want to borrow it." After saying this, Mrs. Sun went back dejectedly.

Lu Jiaxin saw her running away and closed the door regardless of what others thought. Seeing Xue Mao hesitate to speak, she smiled and said, "What's wrong?"

 “Sister, you don’t have to say that about yourself.”

Lu Jiaxin felt that she had to use a special way to treat people like Mrs. Sun: "Before we leave, she shouldn't dare to come to the door again. Xue Mao, you don't need to care about the method, as long as the result is good."

  After that, I added a sentence, as long as you can't break the law or commit any crime.

As he was talking, Gu Wenfeng walked out of the room: "It's okay to say whatever you say here, but it won't be okay when you go back to Sijiu City."

 Lu Jiaxin smiled: "Thank you, Brother Gu, I know."

Fortunately, Xue Mao was left behind. If the three of them were to go down, the old woman would definitely become suspicious if no one kept knocking on the door. Having such a considerate person around me really saves a lot of things. Lu Jiaxin felt that she should fight for it. Maybe Gu Wenfeng would agree to stay and do things for her! Although there is little hope, I still have to give it a try.
