looking for sister

Even if it is a stele, it is necessary to consider the possible cracks caused by burning off the moss.

But right now, there are a few shoe prints that are not very clear.

Lin Jian stood on the edge, and couldn't help leaning his head towards it. After staring at it for a long time, he felt a little sweat coming out from both sides of his nose, mixed with the fragrance of pine needles, and he felt an indescribable feeling.

There were dead leaves all around, and only a few who were lucky enough to be printed on the soft soil could try it. It was the first time Lin Jian saw Su Mu's concentration with his own eyes.

There were only three relatively clear footprints. Su Mu first picked up the dead leaves around with his hands, and then motioned Lin Jian to cover it with paper.

The mulberry paper is soft and delicate, and it is mostly used as book binding on weekdays. Lin Jian took the paper off slowly, and brought over a small bowl of bletilla striata water.

"It's okay, you just come out to play and relax, it will be much better."

Su Mu took out the brush and dipped it in a little water. Lin Jian looked around and couldn't help biting his ear.There was also a dear friend who was there to guard it dutifully, but Lin Jian couldn't care about these anymore.

"How can I be nervous with my intelligence and intelligence! It's just because I'm not proficient for the first time, and these footprints are too few. If something goes wrong, maybe even this thread will be broken."

He leaned into Su Mu's ear and whispered. The latter just smiled, and finally corrected his expression, and gently floated on the paper with a brush.

The entire sheet of paper was quickly moistened, and because of the translucency, even the ground underneath was clearly visible. Lin Jian hurriedly covered another layer of paper. Seeing this, Su Mu took a brush and light hammer. Soon, the two sheets of paper They are attached together, and as time goes by, there are already ups and downs on the paper.

"This is... the pattern has been rubbed off?"

Lin Jian stretched her neck to look, and did not dare to move the hand holding the paper.

"It still needs some processing. Now, help me remove the attached second layer of paper."

"Remove?" Lin Jian yelled in surprise, and immediately covered his mouth. He tugged on Su Mu's sleeve and motioned for people to look, "Look, the paper is almost attached together. Layer, it will be torn."

"So be careful." As Su Mu spoke, his hands had already started to move, and Lin Jian also held his breath unconsciously.

Fortunately, although it was difficult, the result was not bad.Except for some wrinkles at the edge, the printed pattern has not been damaged.

After the rest, it is relatively easy. When the wet paper is [-]% dry, use a brush dipped in ink to spread it evenly, and beat it lightly. Repeat this until the rubbing is half dry and can be removed.

The remaining two footprints did the same. When Lin Jian stood up, he found that the night had fallen, and the reason why there was light around him was because someone was standing beside him with a lamp.

Lin Jian carefully put away the three rubbings, went back to Qinghui Building on the way, put the things on the desk, and let it dry naturally.

Su Mu was waiting outside the door. When he saw Lin Jian coming out again, he hurriedly pushed him towards the stone steps, "It's been a busy day, you should go back and rest quickly. If the night wind blows for a while, I'm afraid there will be another Cough."

"There should be a few footprints on the side of the bookstore. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, we should finish it first. Besides, it must be inconvenient to do this alone, just like just now. Without my help, Brother Chenghong would not have done it." Find a way to do it."

The whole day is novel and exciting, and I am full of enthusiasm for finding friends. This feeling has never been experienced before.Lin Jian only felt that she was more interested now, so she hurriedly tugged Su Mu's sleeve and shook it.

Even though he knew what the other party was up to, Mr. Su felt that it was useful. He took the man's hand and walked forward. Before Lin Jian could jump, he found an extra coat on his shoulders.

Forget it, anyway, no matter what you say, the other party has more reasons.Lin Jian simply pulled up her clothes with peace of mind.

The place the soldier reported was not far from the bookstore, but in fact it was already some distance away. What's worse was that there was a spring next to it, which was more humid than other places.

Although the shoe prints will be relatively obvious, it will naturally make it more difficult to extract because of the water.

Tan Bian had already set up a lamp, against the sound of gurgling water, Lin Jian felt a little uncomfortable for no reason.

Anyway, when the rubbings were half dry and the two carefully carried them back to the bedroom, Lin Jian went to look at the missing engraving in the corner, and found that compared with his last time, a whole hour had passed, and now it was Haizheng.

There were six rubbings in total, and they were placed on the desk to dry naturally in the shade. The two simply used some water and found someone knocking on the door.The door opened, and there was a girl standing outside with a food box in her hand. She saw Su Mu with a timid expression.

"Why did Miss An An come here in person?"

Su Mu was a little surprised, and hurriedly took the food box and carried it.

An An is a girl in her early 20s, wearing a silk hairpin sarong, with big eyes that look like she can speak. She took a step back and did not look into the room, and her eyelids drooped.

"I heard that the front yard is still working on the case. I thought you probably haven't eaten yet, so I sent some here."

What was delivered was two porridge and one meal. After Lin Jian used it, she hid at the desk to look at the rubbings, lest Su Mu conjure up a terrible soup out of thin air.

Rubbings can only be dried naturally in the shade, so even the candlesticks are placed far away. The light on the side of the desk is a bit dim, with ink on one side and yellow-brown lines on the other side. There are large blank spaces in other places.

Lin Jian squatted on one side, looked and looked carefully, but didn't notice any mystery, until Su Mu grabbed her and dragged her to the bed.

There was occasional coughing in the night, Su Mu got up to pour water for others, Lin Jian fell into a drowsy sleep, her eyes were half-closed, but she didn't make a fuss, she fed some smoothly, and then it was dawn.

The first thing Lin Jian did when he woke up was to go to the book case to look through the rubbings. Only then did he realize that Su Mu was also holding some rubbings, but it was obviously different from the rubbings, only with simple patterns. They drew the base.

Looking at these rubbings alone, you can't see anything, but comparing them one by one, even Lin Jian found something strange.

He pointed to the edge of one of the rubbings, and quickly signaled Su Mu to look at it, "Brother Chenghong, look at this one, is it a little narrower than the others, and the pattern is also shallower?"

As he said that, Lin Jian took another one for comparison. Sure enough, the difference was not very big, but it could be seen with the naked eye.

"That's true." Su Mu looked at the rubbings, pointed to the edge and explained to Lin Jian, "A man's footprints are strong, and the indentations will be heavier but uneven, but women's footprints are narrow and short, and the indentations will be light Some."

"That is to say, there may be women among the gangsters?"

Lin Jian compared this rubbing with the other five and found the same conclusion.

"But... Xiuyuan and Botong are big men, so they shouldn't be restrained by a girl."

"Not to mention who this woman's footprints belong to, these rubbings were taken from the pine forest at the entrance and the bookstore, but I didn't find any other similar ones along the way, which means that there are at least two gangsters, and they are clearly guarding two places. Come and cooperate with the inside and the outside."

Su Mu answered the conversation, and quickly marked the rubbings. He had personally obtained these things, and he was already familiar with where they were taken from.
