The third chapter turned out to be an orphan

I just heard from the shopkeeper that the owner of the body drowned.

Drowning is an occasional event. Haha, fortunately she didn't die of weakness or illness, otherwise she wouldn't have been jumping for a few days even if she traveled over and lived in such a body.

Mo Xiao frowned, squinted his eyes and looked them up and down.

"Well, I just look at you and feel familiar, but I can't remember what your relationship has to do with me, and I don't even remember how I drowned by the river."

"Ah? Miss really doesn't remember anything." The little girl named Licorice was no longer afraid at this time. She ran over to the bed, knelt on the pedal beside the bed, and then lifted the water-sparking eyes and looked at Mo Xiao.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Mo Xiao saw that she knelt down without saying a word, and almost knelt down too.

She was so old that she had not kneeled before with her Buddhist grandmother, who sometimes went to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha, and no one had ever kneeled down.

It feels really bad to be kneeled down by someone. Grandma said that you can’t just accept other people’s kneeling, or if you can’t bear it, you will lose your blessings.

Mo Xiao turned his body and hurriedly called Licorice to get up.

"Miss, it's all my fault."

Licorice didn't plan to get up, but just walked closer to the bed in a kneeling position, and stepped forward and grabbed Mo Xiao's hand and cried while telling.

"I usually serve the lady while taking a shower, but I was called out by Mother Li last night. If I hadn't left the lady, the lady wouldn't have drowned in the bathtub."

After hearing this, Mo Xiao felt that he was hit by lightning and drowned in the bathtub. What's the matter? Will anyone else drown in the bathtub? How big is the bathtub? Can it drown individuals?

"You mean drowning in a bathtub? Such a big bathtub?"

Mo Xiao felt that it was necessary to confirm that his hands broke free from licorice's hands and tried to reach the maximum. He compared the size. Judging from the distance between the two hands, the original owner was about the same size as hers. Even if the hands were extended to the maximum, including the tip of the nail, it was only about 1.65 meters. This was still the diameter, and the depth was probably not one meter.

Don’t the beauties bathing in costume dramas on TV, and they all sit in the bathtub? They can even reveal their upper body while sitting. This depth can drown people? Their judgment is too arbitrary. I won’t report to an official and ask a detective or something to investigate?

As if she knew her question, Licorice continued to cry and talk.

"Miss always likes to take a bath. She takes more than half an hour. She used to experience sleeping and slipping into the bathtub. But in the past, licorice was with the lady every time, so it was fine. I guess I fell asleep that time, and I happened to go out, so I drowned. Fortunately, the lady was lucky enough to wake up in the end, otherwise licorice would have to..."

I stopped talking about licorice, but I cried louder than before.

Alas, she just said that she had to die with the lady. It seemed that she was still a loyal and stupid girl.

However, Mo Xiao always felt that something was wrong.

Oh, by the way, these two people in front of me are little maids and one is a shopkeeper. What about the original owner’s relatives, parents, brothers and sisters, etc., in ancient times, even if there were no four generations living together, three or four bedrooms, the family could not be so deserted that a lady died for a long time without a relative around her.

But in fact, I have been dead for a long time, but no relative is by the bed.

None of my father, mom, and brothers and sisters.

It won’t be like those time travel novels, the original owner is an abandoned girl who is not aroused by others.

"Why are you two, what about the others?"

Mo Xiao decided to inquire in a tactful way.

"Ah? Other people?"

Licorice seemed a little surprised when the lady asked the others, but she replied seriously.

"Eucommia and others are in the outer courtyard. Although the lady is not well, they will not diagnose the disease... They are all men. This is the inner courtyard where the lady is an unmarried girl. Naturally, I didn't let them in. Moreover, the lady happened after closing the shop last night. It's not time to open the shop. After the incident, I only called the shopkeeper, so no one else knew about it."

Speaking of this, the licorice seemed very glad that she did not scream. At most, only she and the shopkeeper knew about the mischief that the lady drowned in the bathtub. If she knew about it, she would definitely make a fuss.

Hey, the lady asked them that they must have remembered it, right? Yes, except for the closing of the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, the lady opened the clinic on time every day. It was time to open the shop. Licorice felt moved, and she was happy and no longer crying, looking at her lady with concern.

"Miss, have you remembered it all? However, you just woke up. Why not open a shop today and let the note be posted at the door, saying that the lady went to the temple to worship Buddha and fulfill her wishes. There is nothing wrong with temporarily suspending the clinic for a day."

Mo Xiao laughed. Hearing the tone of Licorice, the original owner was still a workaholic who checked in to work on time, but she asked others that they were relatives, and Licorice was obviously referring to the clinic’s friend.

Is there only guys in the clinic?

Mo Xiao looked at the decorations in the room again. In addition to the bed under him, there was also the Arhat bed by the window, and there was not even an extra chair and stool, which meant that there were no people in the room.

Mo Xiao held his forehead and said, "Oh, my mother..." After saying the word "kit" but stopped talking, he sighed softly.

"Licorice also thinks it must be the wife who has the spirit to bless the lady." Licorice indeed continued.

It turned out that the original owner's mother was dead.

"Father..." Mo Xiao stopped after saying the words "father" and cried twice.

It is normal to pick up a life and cry for my parents. Licorice and the shopkeeper did not realize that Mo Xiao was talking about it.

"The Master will be relieved in the sky."

This time it was the shopkeeper who answered the conversation. After saying this, he seemed to think of something again. He suddenly said, and a very happy expression appeared on his face, and he said straight: "This is great, it's great!"

Licorice frowned. It was the lady who drowned. Why was the shopkeeper stupid? Even if the lady woke up, she would not shout if she was happy. After all, she almost lost her life. What's the point?

The shopkeeper seemed to pray silently before looking at Mo Xiao again and continued to speak, "Miss. You may not remember. You were still young at that time, as if you were about three years old. That day, you were sitting at the entrance of the clinic to play. A Taoist who passed by the clinic asked you for water. You kindly went to the kitchen to get water and gave him two steamed buns. After drinking the water, the Taoist said that he would count your life for free to repay the kindness of water. The master heard that he wanted to welcome him into the house, but the Taoist refused to enter."

"It's said it was fortune telling, and I didn't touch the bones to measure the word. I looked at the face of the lady and said, "The lady has a lot of kalpas, but if she passes a death disaster, she will be extremely good from now on. I was also beside me at that time, and I almost beat the Taoist. How can I pass the death disaster? I clearly said that I wanted to cheat some money. But the master was calm and said that the Taoist had some fairy spirit and gave me some silver. Now it seems that the Taoist might be really a half-immortal, and even calculated the Miss's death disaster this time."
