Chapter 9
Three days later, Lu Xu and Ye Xing's apartment.
Ye Xing was lying on the bed, his face had returned to rosy.Originally, Qiu Jiyu wanted him to stay in the hospital for observation for a few days, but Lu Xu was unwilling to step into the hospital even if he died, so he had no choice but to go home with Ye Xing.
At this time, Lu Xu was sitting next to him quietly peeling apples, while Qiu Jiyu and Tian Xiu were on the balcony talking on the phone.
"Good news!" Qiu Jiyu hung up the phone, walked back to Ye Xing's bedroom beamingly and said, "With Ye Xing's confession and handwriting identification, Wu Lili will definitely not be able to escape! This time we helped Lao Cao keep his seat." , he has applied for a lot of bonuses for us!"
He glanced at Lu Xu, stopped talking for a long time, and finally couldn't help but said: "Do you need me to find a ruler for you?"
Ye Xing was taken aback, followed his gaze, and saw that Lu Xu was scraping the apple skin bit by bit with the tip of the knife, dividing it into even strips, with such care that it seemed that a little crooked scraping would destroy the world. Doomsday in general.
"Okay, I'll be toothless by the time you peel the skin!" Ye Xing sighed dumbfounded, and then asked Qiu Jiyu, "How much bonus did we get?"
"Thirty thousand!" Tian Xiu raised five fingers with a smile on his face.
A group of people unanimously gave him a look of contempt, and automatically ignored him.
"Lu Xu has done a great job in this case. After deducting the normal operating costs of the firm, there is still 2 yuan left in the bonus. Ye Xing, when you feel better in two days, take this money and take Lu Xu out. Let's relax." Qiu Jiyu smiled and looked at Ye Xing and then at Lu Xu, no matter what, it's business to match them up!
"Ah?! I never travel!" Lu Xu's eyes widened in shock, as if Qiu Jiyu didn't let him travel, but let him jump into a fire pit.
Ye Xing coughed and said with a sinister smile: "It's okay, you even dared to ride in the car to save me that day, I believe you can do it!"
A look of fear suddenly appeared on Lu Xu's face, and he waved his hands again and again: "No, no, I can't do it!"
"Huh~? What did you say?" Ye Xing put back the smile on his face and put on a dangerous expression and said, "By the way, who brought that fake and shoddy celestial master back and caused me to almost die?!"
"Eh..." Lu Xu was taken aback, this... It seems that Qiu Jiyu is looking for someone, why should he settle accounts with him?
Ye Xing has been threatening him with this reason ever since he was discharged from the hospital, and said righteously that even if Qiu Jiyu found him, he still bears the unshirkable responsibility, because he didn't stop him from drinking the "sacred water" in time!How wronged is he...
Qiu Jiyu coughed dryly, pretending he didn't know anything, and turned to enjoy the scenery outside the window.
However, Tian Xiu shouted excitedly: "Ha! Good trip! Let's go together!"
"What's the matter with you!" Qiu Jiyu suddenly appeared behind Tian Xiu like a ghost, greeted the back of his head fiercely, and decisively dragged him away while he was in a daze.
"Huh~?" Ye Xing raised his chin threateningly, his eyes narrowed even more.
"I... go, can't I?" Lu Xu agreed in a low voice, like a wronged little daughter-in-law.So Master Ye Xing happily showed a fox-like smile...
Two days later, they settled on their destination - the mountain village resort in City D.
"Hmm...towel..." Lu Xu carefully put a towel folded into a square into a plastic bag with a movable seal, then put the plastic bag into a huge suitcase, and then picked up another towel and said, " Um...a spare towel..."
Ye Xing watched helplessly as he picked up the third towel, and then said, "Hmm... spare towel, spare towel..."
Ye Xing was completely speechless, and couldn't help but said: "It's not that far away, one day's drive one way, plus accommodation, it only takes five days to go back and forth, you... it's enough for the two of us for a year... Also, what do you mean by taking that whole stick of purified water?"
"Oh! This! I only drink this brand of purified water!" Lu Xu happily waved the spare pajamas on his hand, completely taking Ye Xing's complaints as a compliment.
In the end, under Ye Xing's strong opposition, Lu Xu "only" took two half-person-high suitcases and embarked on this self-driving tour.
The car drove from early in the morning to the west of the sun, and finally got on a tree-lined road with a width of two cars.In the resort located on the hillside in the distance, the antique houses with white walls and red tiles are scattered in the middle of the woods, which looks extremely pleasing to the eye.
This resort was originally a small mountain village, with a total of no more than a hundred families, and their lives were very poor.Later, relying on the beautiful mountains and clear waters to stay away from urban pollution, the tourism industry started, and then it developed.
Lu Xu admired the lush trees around him, and gradually relaxed his nerves that had been stretched all day.
Suddenly, the car made two strange "chugs" noises, bumped a few times and stopped, and white smoke suddenly rose from the front hood of the car.
"What happened?!" Lu Xu was taken aback, unfastened his seat belt in a panic, and jumped out of the car as if fleeing for his life.
Ye Xing frowned and got out of the car, opened the front cover and began to check, still complaining in his heart, is it bad luck recently?Seeing that there are at most ten miles away from the resort, this car can also break down here!
Lu Xu rubbed his hands uneasily, watching the rapidly darkening sky, and nervously approached the carriage.He has always been afraid of the dark, and just now he didn't feel anything while sitting in the car, but now that he got out of the car, the surrounding trees seemed to have become hideous.
"Are you ready?" He nervously lowered his voice and asked Ye Xing, his voice trembling.
"It seems that the problem is more serious." Ye Xing leaned forward to check the parts everywhere, and replied without raising his head.
Lu Xu became more nervous when he heard the words, and stared in vain at the dark woods around him.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed through the woods not far away!
"Ah!" Lu Xu screamed, causing Ye Xing to raise his head suddenly, and hit the back of his head hard on the car hood.
"What the hell are you doing?!" Ye Xing rubbed his head desperately, his face was so painful that he pulled it up.
"I, I, I, I saw, a hairy, oh, upright, two-meter-tall, human-like, animal with very big feet..." Lu Xu stammered After speaking, Ye Xing frowned and looked at him strangely.
"You want to say, you saw the legendary Bigfoot?" After finishing speaking, Ye Xing was amused by his own words, how could such a thing exist!
"I didn't say... I just said it was a..." Lu Xu didn't believe it himself.For those legendary things, such as water monsters, UFOs, ghosts hitting the wall, etc., he has always believed that there are reasonable scientific explanations, but who can tell him what he saw just now?
"I think you must be too tired these days." Ye Xing waved his hand, and looked irritably at the mobile phone that could not receive the signal, "It seems that we can only walk to the resort. Fortunately, it is not very far. Go Bar……"
Lu Xu nervously followed behind Ye Xing, letting him drag his cuffs to walk. He always felt hairy on his back, but when he looked back, there was no movement in the woods...
Early the next morning, the owner of the hotel where the two stayed told them that the car had been towed to the only car repair shop in the resort.They can go there and ask about the situation.
"The coil on the starter is broken, so it shouldn't be a big problem. But we are in the mountains, and it may take a while to get the accessories." said the owner of the auto repair shop. He is a slightly fat man in his early thirties.
"Ah... well... about how long will it take?" Ye Xing sighed deeply, thinking about it, forget it, anyway, they were going to stay here for a few days.
"Well, I'll see if anyone goes to the city tomorrow. If there are any, I'll get someone to bring them to you." The owner of the auto repair shop wiped the oil from his hands on his dirty work clothes.
"I'm sorry, I want to ask, are there any animals like gorillas near you?" Lu Xu couldn't get rid of the figure from yesterday, and couldn't help asking.
"No." The owner of the auto repair shop shrugged.
"Then is there any circus or something..." Lu Xu didn't give up, and then asked.
"Okay! Maybe it's just your eyes that are blurred." Ye Xing couldn't take it anymore, what is this all about!
"No, no, no, you don't understand. I really saw it last night. That one is covered in hair and walks upright..." Lu Xu wanted to explain, but was interrupted by the owner of the car repair shop.
"Are you trying to say that you saw a Bigfoot?" The owner of the auto repair shop laughed and said, "It's nothing, I've seen ghosts before!"
"No, no, this is not the same thing at all! You don't understand, I am a very rational person, I rely on IQ to solve crimes and make money, how can I believe these things?" Lu Xu stubbornly wanted to refute, but saw the owner of the car repair shop Suddenly his face darkened.
"What do you mean? You mean I have no IQ?" The owner of the auto repair shop raised his waist, his face turned green with anger.
"Uh, that's not what I mean, I mean, do you still have a high IQ in car repair..." Lu Xu waved his hands in a panic to explain.
Ye Xing covered his face speechlessly, feeling a strong sense of powerlessness in his heart, this explanation...it's better not to explain.
"What? You mean you are a mental worker, so I can only do hard work, right? That's right, you city people are so smart, I can't, I'm so stupid that I can't find accessories, you just slow down Just wait!" The owner of the car repair shop put down the hood severely, and went back to the shop without looking back.
"Hey! Don't!" Ye Xing didn't have time to stop him, so he could only look at Lu Xu sadly and said, "Brother, have you lost your mind?"
"But I'm telling the truth!" Lu Xu looked at the back of the owner of the auto repair shop aggrievedly, not understanding why he was so angry.
"You..." Ye Xing's mouth trembled for a long time, and he managed to suppress his temper.This guy, after losing his memory, did he lose even the most basic emotional intelligence?
