In the cold winter, the yellow kudzu trees on both sides of the road have long lost their green leaves, bare, and the branches seem to be too frozen. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The county government is the courtyard of the third entrance, the public hall of the litigation trial is on the outermost side, the inner house of the county order and the dependents is on the innermost side, and the Zhiyuan Hall of the second courtyard is the place where the county order usually discusses and meets guests.

On the verandah leading to Zhiyuan Hall, the two walked one after the other, the man with a darker complexion and big eyes was the main bookkeeper Li Zulan, the person who was one step behind him, tall and good-looking, although there were a few strands of white hair hidden in the sideburns, if the time went back twenty years, it must have been heroic and magnificent, but unfortunately, the heavens were not beautiful, his right leg was inconvenient to walk, and he limped when he walked, he, Qin Ran's father Qin Xiaowu.

After a few steps to the door, the two stepped into the house one after another.

"Commoner Qin Xiaowu, meet with Zheng County Order." With a natural expression, Qin Xiaowu saluted Zheng Chao, as if he didn't notice that there were still others in the house.

"Lao Qin is here, sit down quickly." As he spoke, Zheng Chao glanced at Li Zulan, and when he saw that he quietly made a gesture of 'I'll do something, you can rest assured', Zheng Chao immediately showed a big smile.

"Qin Xiaowu thanked Zheng County for the order." Saluting again, Qin Xiaowu sat down.

"Ahem..."Zheng Chao poked his hands as he cleared his throat, replaced his approachable expression, and replaced it with a slightly serious look, and then said. Lao Qin, you should be very clear about things, everything we do is for the people of Furong City and even the entire Chengdu Mansion! ”

Saying this, Zheng Chao deliberately aimed at Qin Ran, wanting Qin Xiaowu to take the initiative to propose, he was willing to cooperate with Qin Ran to go to the dragon tank together and wipe out the mountain bandits!

However, Zheng Chao never expected that Qin Xiaowu's reaction was greatly beyond his expectations.

"Zheng County Order, the contemptible people are willing to do their best to assist the county lieutenant and others to go up the mountain, but Qin Ran's mother is slightly ill, and I hope that the county order will allow her to take a few days off and go back to accompany her mother more." Rubbing the top of his left eye and bowing his head, Qin Xiaowu didn't look at the two people opposite, and said to himself.

In fact, with Qin Xiaowu's temperament, he had already spoken very tactfully.

Go to Longgang Mountain, okay, he can go, but if he wants his daughter Qin Ran to go, absolutely not!

"Lao Qin..."Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Zheng Chao pretended not to hear his refusal and continued. Take Qin Ranniang to the county office, and the insider will personally help take care of it, and you can go with peace of mind! ”

"Zheng County Order, I, Qin Xiaowu, am not afraid to throw a body of skin in the dragon tank, but let Qin Ran go, it is impossible!" At first glance, Qin Xiaowu was so angry that Zheng Chao wanted to threaten him? slapped the disabled right leg, Qin Xiaowu turned his face when he said that he would turn his face, and directly put on a stinky face, with a resolute attitude, and there was no room for negotiation at all.

Qin Xiaowu didn't seem to be in oil and salt, turned his face sideways, and put one hand between his eyebrows.

As soon as the words came out, Zheng Chao and Li Zulan's faces sank, and the room was suddenly quiet.

"Qin Ran, come here!" Holding Qin Ran's wrist with one hand, Qin Xiaowu pulled Qin Ran, who was sitting on the side watching the play, outside for 're-education'.

"Say it." Standing firm, Qin Ran spoke.

"Smack-"

"Dad..."didn't move, Qin Ran let Qin Xiaowu slap her on the head.

"You still know I'm your father?!" Seeing her calm appearance, Qin Xiaowu was angry.

He was really worried that this child would be sold one day, and he would help others count the money!

Qin Ran cracked several big cases in a row last year, Zheng Chao even "borrowed" her to Shuzhou for several months, and the county magistrate, county magistrate, chief bookkeeper, and county lieutenant of Furong City were all promoted by one liter, but Qin Ran didn't see half of the benefits, and afterwards, Qin Ran comforted Qin Xiaowu and told him that she was unwilling to be promoted and transferred.

“…”

"Don't ask, I don't allow you to get half a step closer to the dragon tank, that black-hearted ghost Zheng Chao will force you to go again, and our family will move out overnight!" Even if he can't do the transfer of household registration, he would rather become a black household, he resolutely does not allow Qin Ran to go to Longgang.

"Could it be that there are ghosts on Longgang Mountain?" Raising his eyebrows, Qin Ran stared at him, with a smear of brilliance in his eyes.

"Little Ancestor... Don't shout! Covering her mouth, Qin Xiaowu was so nervous that he turned his head and poked left and right.

"Dad, you have to let me know what's so powerful about Longgang Mountain so that I can refuse him for a reasonable reason."

Qin Xiaowu is upright and righteous, although sometimes too stubborn, but he knows how to be proportionate, and there is no problem in dealing with people, today's abnormality tells Qin Ran that there must be some reason, she especially noticed that when Qin Xiaowu mentioned the dragon tank, he had a subconscious avoidance emotion, grief flashed on his face, and she even saw the faint fear in his heart.

[All human emotions can be clearly identified through facial expressions and body posture.] When a person wants to hide his inner feelings, hand movements always reveal the emotions that the face or body intends to hide. The words that the person told Qin Ran have always been engraved in her heart.

He told him that the hands in different places on the body mean different things, and that the head represents 'problems', the hair represents 'relationships', the eyebrows represent opinions and decisions about the outside world or oneself, the eyes reflect emotions, and the lips emphasize authority and authority.

Seventeen years ago, Qin Ran knew that based on her understanding of her father, she thought that there was another story behind it, which should be related to Qin Xiaowu's leg injury.

In order to persuade Qin Ran, Qin Xiaowu had no choice but to confide in the past that he did not want to recall.

On that day, Qin Xiaowu hurriedly went home because of his wife's childbirth, made sure that everything was fine, and rushed back to the hut on Longgang Mountain overnight, who knew that the only thing left for him was the four big words "miserable", those brothers who had eaten wine and meat together, became fragments, flesh and blood blurred, Qin Xiaowu still remembers its tragic situation.

Three years later, Qin Xiaowu led people up the mountain again, vowing to avenge the tragic death of his brother, but unexpectedly, they encountered the "Dragon Tank Wandering Spirit".

I remember that day was in the afternoon of the scorching summer sun, they walked to the vicinity of the dragon tank sinkhole, suddenly, the wind swept in, the ground shook and swayed, a cloud of fog came out of nowhere, surrounded Qin Xiaowu and others layer by layer, several people immediately covered in cold, like people stripped their clothes and thrown into the winter river, trembling, in an instant, a ghost crying wolf howl sounded in his ears, almost pierced Qin Xiaowu's eardrums, he then saw the people around him fall down one by one, the corners of his eyes, nostrils, mouth and ear piercings were bleeding, and this, Qin Xiaowu stood in place and couldn't move, And the creepy things followed.

A foul smell like a corpse decomposing penetrated his nose, and he didn't have time to retch, Qin Xiaowu raised his eyes and took a look, eager to fall, not far away, a huge green lantern floated towards him, getting closer and closer, the stench became stronger and stronger, and when he looked at it with his eyes, the lantern was filled with green water, and the green water clearly saw people's arms, fingers, and internal organs...

At this point, Qin Xiaowu thought about the legend he heard from the old man when he first came to Furong City, the green lantern floating on Longgang Mountain was the soul of the deceased who died tragically in a different place, and the ancients paid attention to the whole corpse, otherwise it would not be possible to be reincarnated.

After encountering the dragon tank wandering spirit, Qin Xiaowu had no memory in his mind, only that when he woke up, he rolled down the cliff, his right leg was pressed by a boulder, and when he returned to the city, more than two months had passed, and everyone thought he was dead, while the others disappeared mysteriously.

Twice went up the mountain, only Qin Xiaowuyi was left, the missing relatives did not dare to go up the mountain to find it, so they came to the door to ask for an explanation, Qin Xiaowu had no face to stay in the county office, half a year later, Qin Xiaowuyi went up the mountain again for several months, and he didn't even see a single figure of the mountain bandits, he had to wonder why the mountain bandits could stay in Longgang Mountain?

Over time, he developed a great fear of those people and those places.

……

"Dad, go back first, I know how to do it."

"Good daughter, come back early, wait for you to drink porridge." Qin Ran replied well-behaved, Qin Xiaowu felt strange inexplicably, and without thinking too much, he took a step first and left the county office.

Seeing Qin Xiaowu go away, turning around, Qin Ran entered the house, and saw Zheng Chao and Li Zulan with classic expressions of wanting to cry without tears.

"Prefectural order."

"Qin Ran, don't say it, let me be quiet." Compared with Qin Xiaowu, Qin Ran's directness can stimulate Zheng Chao more, and people are not happy, so they are forced to go to Longgang Mountain, which is also a trip in vain, it is better to wait for Qin Ran to solve a few more cases, and the Jindu Yushi will come to inspect a circle, and they will be promoted and transferred.

"County order, I'm leaving, you have time to be quiet."

"Let's go? Where to? ”

"Dragon Tank."

Zheng Chao rubbed the right side of his nose with his fingers, his eyes widened, and there seemed to be incredible words written on his forehead.

"Qin Zhutou, when are you leaving?" Coming back to his senses from hell to heaven, Li Zulan asked.

"Right now."
