She gently held me in her arms and comforted me: "Don't be so nervous, you're just a little thief."
"Huh?" I looked at her puzzled: "How do you know?"
Tao Zi picked up the corn kernels I had thrown away and said, "Now is the season for harvesting grain. Only the nearby villagers have this kind of scattered grain."
After saying that, she turned to look at the shoe prints on the ground: "Look, the soles have very deep lines, which are obviously the marks of outdoor shoes."
"Food, outdoor shoes, put these two things together, what can you think of?"
I thought for a moment and then asked, "Labor protection rubber shoes?"
"Yes, I probably dropped it on my body accidentally. I wanted to come to the construction site to find some bargains at night, but it fell out in a hurry."
This analysis can be considered reasonable and well-founded.
I looked around and asked, "That should be a nearby villager?"
Taozi waved her hands quickly: "I didn't catch my wrist, so we don't dare to talk nonsense. You can see if you have lost anything."
The workers have a shed dedicated to stacking tools, and detailed entry and exit details are hung on the door.
I checked carefully and found that something was indeed missing, but it was just a hammer.
For such a big project, a hammer is really insignificant.
Looking at it this way, we might have discovered it before we even took action.
Taozi looked at the account book with a smile: "Let me tell you, you are too nervous."
I couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Tomorrow is the day to fill the altar. Send me some food today. Does this mean a good harvest, right?"
Until dawn, I never closed my eyes again.
In addition to staring at the thief, I am also looking forward to the rain.
Maybe God opened his eyes, but in the middle of the night a strong wind suddenly came up, thunder rolled one after another, and a heavy downpour came in an instant.
This rain has completely washed away the haze in my heart.
Once the rootless water falls, it is regarded as loess paving the road and clear water splashing onto the street.
Before anyone came, I took the old turtle out of the car.
I checked the feng shui from front to back and patted Uncle Chen's back: "I checked the feng shui for you. It's a good place."
The moment I put it on the ground, Uncle Chen walked slowly and step by step into the hole I had dug in advance.
In order to avoid finding the place later, I specially marked it on the construction drawings.
This pit is also very particular. The depth and width are both three feet and three feet, taking the extreme number of yang.
This also means that this is a very deep pit, and it is difficult to get out if you get into it.
After I buried Uncle Chen, Taozi's face was full of worry: "Isn't this a burial alive?"
I shook the dirt off my hands and said with a smile, "Even if he is an ordinary turtle, there will be no problem."
"Don't forget, the most profound breathing method in Taoism is called Turtle Breath."
For the construction site, there are two things that must be celebrated, one is the capping and the other is the foundation laying.
It's just that since this is a Taoist temple, I don't use the Tailao Sansi. I just put simple fruits, pears and peaches.
Everyone was beaming with joy. I looked around and didn't see Duan Xu.
This shouldn't be the case.
Duan Xu is short of money now, so there is no way he won't come.
Moreover, he is a devout believer, and he always thought that what I built was the temple of their true god.
From every angle, he should appear.
Thinking of this, I took out my mobile phone and stayed away from the crowd, but Duan Xu's call was never answered.
Tsk.
After four missed calls in a row, I gave up the idea of calling.
Turning around, I asked Taozi for the car keys. Taozi hesitated for a while before giving them to me.
"After all, you are the owner of this place. The foundation is a big deal. Isn't it bad if you are not here?"
I almost blurted out: "Isn't this about you?"
Taozi suddenly beamed: "Am I the hostess?"
"Go! Go! Go."
I grabbed the car keys and said with a smile, "Please pay attention to the occasion."
The moment I turned around, I suddenly realized that my relationship with Taozi had become subtle.
I regard her as one of my own from the bottom of my heart, and the so-called transactions before were also wasted in various things.
I can even trust her without any reason.
On the way, I tried to contact Duan Xu several times, but still no one answered.
The anxiety in my heart made me step on the accelerator a little harder.
To be honest, whether he dies or not has nothing to do with me. What matters is his master.
