Cannon Fodder Battle Chapter 285: Master, am I beautiful? (2)
The people outside heard the maid's crying, and Zhu's mother didn't know what happened to Yulan Juli, she just thought it was the maid and didn't want to do anything, so she ignored her. Chapter update is the fastest
The other maids ran faster, fearing that there would be some monsters and ghosts inside, what if they would eat them all when they went back, so they completely abandoned Yulanju and the two in the middle of Yulanju behind them .
It was already late, but there was still the setting sun to illuminate, Tong Xinlan walked into the room by herself regardless of the maid who was crying and fainted on the ground.
Tong Xinlan also did tasks in ancient times. She found candles and fire pockets in the drawer next to the living room. Tong Xinlan lit candles one by one to illuminate the room, and then she looked carefully at the boudoir.
The layout of the room is also very fine and exquisite, with nanmu tables and chairs, gilded bed, beautiful bed curtains, opened the small jewelry cabinet, and the jewelry inside, such as walkers, hairpins, bracelets, etc., is also exquisite and gorgeous. It has surpassed the configuration of ordinary boudoir girls, and it can be seen that the client should have been favored before.
There are also more difficult-to-find orchid varieties in the yard outside, and they cannot be taken care of by one person.
But why, beside me, there is only one maid serving by her side?
Tong Xinlan looked at the maid who was pretending to be dead by the door, sighed, walked to the lanterns that were all extinguished just now, took down the two lanterns, took them into the room and looked at them.
This is also Tong Xinlan's question. Since there are no other servants in the courtyard except her and the maid who came in just now, who lit this lantern? And just after she came back, they were all turned off.
Tong Xinlan has gone to so many worlds and has become an expert in conspiracy theories. She doesn't believe that any ghost would target such a boudoir girl in this way. Rather than scaring those people around the client, it is obviously a means to make the client feared by others, and finally everyone will dislike and abandon it.
Thinking of this, Tong Xinlan sat down by the candle at the table, opened a paper lantern cover, and saw that there was no special device inside, only a shelf supporting the candle, and an extinguished candle.
There are large holes for ventilation on the top and bottom of the lampshade. There is also no problem of insufficient oxygen.
So. The only problem is the candle.
Tong Xinlan took out the candle and looked at it horizontally and vertically, but she didn't see why.
In order to verify whether the candle was tampered with. Tong Xinlan brought the candle she took out from the lampshade to the flame of the candle she had just lit, trying to light it.
After trying several times, I changed the candle in the second lantern, but unfortunately the candle just wouldn't ignite.
A point does not burn. That was being tampered with, and Tong Xinlan brought the candle to the flames to smoke again.
The maid who was pretending to be dead outside walked into the lighted guest room tremblingly. Seeing Tong Xinlan who was trying to light the candle, she said tremblingly with tears, "Miss, that candle has been soaked in Yin Qi. It can't be lit, so throw it away."
Tong Xinlan turned her head to look at the maid and asked. "How do you know that it must not burn?"
The servant girl moved closer to the light, feeling a little more secure. Although there is a young lady in the house, it is better than the dark courtyard.
Swallowing her saliva, the maid said, "Miss, haven't you verified it two days ago? It really can't be ignited. The Taoist priest who came that day also said that the candle is infected by Yin Qi and cannot be lit. The open fire in the world is lit."
Tong Xinlan moved away the candle that had melted a lot, and looked at the candle tears dripping on the table.
The melted candle tears have not yet condensed into white fat-like lumps, but there are dense white dots inside the candle tears that should be transparent. Tong Xinlan wiped the candle tears on her hands with her fingers, rubbed them, Tong Xinlan laughed.
Sure enough, the candle was tampered with.
In the previous middle school chemistry class, the teacher said that there is a white powder that can be used as a flame retardant, that is magnesium oxide (), the chemistry teacher also led the students to do this experiment, which shocked the children who were new to chemistry Unceasingly, I became curious and interested in the magic of chemistry. So far, all the students in the class are very enthusiastic about chemistry.
Although Tong Xinlan can't guarantee that the white powder mixed in the candle and wrapped on the wick is magnesia, but the most easily available raw material in magnesia flame retardants, it is difficult to achieve other flame retardants in ancient times. Synthetic conditions, but magnesium oxide is naturally formed, that is, natural periclase, which can be used after grinding into powder, and does not require developed chemical methods to synthesize.
So, someone deliberately added a flame retardant under the candle, so that when the candle burned to the second half, it would suddenly go out, which would scare a group of people.
It's really a good plan. It makes people more and more afraid of her as the client. The rumor that the client is a disaster star spreads more and more. I don't know what the other party is planning?
"Miss, what are you laughing at? Throw the candle away." The servant girl suddenly laughed when she saw the eldest lady who had been frowning recently. Feeling more and more weird, the two groups were frightened.
Seeing the servant girl's frightened look, Tong Xinlan originally wanted to explain to her so that she should not be afraid, but she remembered that she didn't know who her friends and enemies were now, if this maidservant was unreliable, she said it now, wouldn't it be Missed the bottom line, stunned the snake?
Lowering her head, Tong Xinlan said, "It's too late today, let's throw it away tomorrow, you should go to rest early, and I will go to bed too."
Ah, Miss is still able to sleep, aren't you afraid? In the past two days, the eldest lady was crying every night, and she was so scared that she couldn't sleep!
Maybe it's because I haven't slept for two days, and I knelt in the Buddhist hall for another day today, so I'm tired.
The servant girl nodded indiscriminately, took Tong Xinlan to relight the candle and made the lantern, and went to fetch water for her to serve Tong Xinlan to sleep.
Although there is only cold water, Tong Xinlan is content. There is only a servant girl in the yard, and she is a superstitious ancient. She is so afraid of ghosts and gods, so it is brave for her to go to the well to fetch water.
When the maid went to fetch water, she was afraid that something would happen at night, so Tong Xinlan took out all the candles in the drawer and tried to melt them one by one. The candles were put back in the cabinet.
After waiting for Tong Xinlan to fall asleep, the maid did not dare to blow out the candles, and even lit several candles, but did not dare to blow them out, so she fell asleep wrapped in a quilt on the footboard beside the bed.
Seeing that the maid was also lying down, Tong Xinlan sighed, and then closed her eyes.
After falling asleep, it was a dreamlike dream again. It seemed that she really couldn't see the client, and what she saw was the client's life. (To be continued.)
