Chapter 12: His Presence
The window lattice was opened a small crack, and the winter wind gusted. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was dark in front of him, Qin Ran listened to the sound of clothes rubbing for a while, and simply closed his eyes and didn't move, nesting on the bed as if he was asleep.
"Click!" the door was opened.
"Hey, you're just leaving?" Suddenly, Qin Ran spoke.
Closing the door again, the man took a few steps back, walked to the side of the bed, uncovered a robe on Qin Ran's body, leaned on the bedpost, and looked down at her from above.
And Qin Ran also looked at the man who had changed into a brocade robe and put on a black suit, his black hair let a moon-white auspicious cloud pattern ribbon be tied high behind his head, without lazy and casual meaning, instead of a clean and neat, never muddy and watery lean shape, at the beginning, when he noticed his dress, his caution, and his teasing, Qin Ran felt strange, how could he be a mountain bandit Ryuuji?
Looking at her for a moment, the man smiled before saying a word.
"Okay, we haven't officially said hello yet, Qin Zhutou, long admired the name."
"Who the hell are you?" Compared with the man's leisurely complacency, Qin Ran was slightly nervous, her right eyebrow raised, and she bit her lower lip lightly, she asked.
"Now that you've guessed, I can't—" He gestured to pick up the robe, and then made her eyes darken.
"Hey, don't interrupt!" Qin Ran can get some information from the man, but there is very little really useful information, if he wants to hide some emotions, people's facial expressions, body limbs will always betray him, if he faces it calmly, no one can see through his heart.
He either belongs to the category of people who are very good at hiding his emotions, or he really doesn't take her seriously.
"It seems that Qin Zhutou doesn't like darkness, okay, don't cover your eyes."
"Untie my acupuncture hole, in case someone sneaks in after you're gone?" Seeing that he couldn't open his mouth, Qin Ran, who was at a disadvantage, chose to compromise.
"You're right." Turning around, the man pulled out a hemp rope from the cupboard, tied her firmly in three or two strokes, and continued. "In about a quarter of an hour, your acupuncture points will be automatically untied, lest you run around and spoil my business, it is indeed necessary to tie you up."
"You-"
"Qin catches heads, it's not early, rest early." After ordering Qin Ran's dumb acupoint, the man took out a set of men's clothes and placed them at the head of the bed, and said. "I want to... Men's clothing is more suitable for your aura. ”
……
When the child, the dragon cylinder sinkhole.
Tossing in the middle of the night, Qin Ran finally came from the mountain bandit's nest to the place where she was supposed to come, standing on the top of the mountain rock, letting the wind blow her face, she couldn't help but recall what happened just now.
If you really want to trap her there, the man should order her acupoint again, instead of tying her up with a rope, the head of the dignified county can't even deal with a hemp rope, so she can go directly into the crack of the ground and go to the underworld for a day trip.
He deliberately let her go, and she wouldn't be unaware.
"Hurry up and get down to business." Shaking his head, Qin Ran forbade himself to think deeply, and looked at it by the bright moonlight.
The terrain of the sinkhole is complex, and it looks bare and white in winter, but this does not affect Qin Ran's imprint in his mind to make it three-dimensional, and the blurred picture is compared with a map many years ago, which is the map drawn by Qin Xiaowu when he went up the mountain.
In distress twice, Qin Xiaowu, who was trying to survive in danger, had a sense of fear of Longgang Mountain.
However, after listening to Cheng He's story, Qin Ran longed to meet the 'Dragon Tank Wandering Spirit', she wanted to know if time could be reversed, she wanted to know if he came to the same starry sky as her, since Qin Ran could find Lu Han, why couldn't he find him?
Seventeen years have passed since then, and there has always been a voice echoing in Qin Ran's heart, it is he who has arranged everything in the dark.
"Found it." With his pupils shrinking, Qin Ran tightened his chin, put on gold-silk gloves in his hand, and raised a torch towards the bottom of the sinkhole.
Time flickered, and the moon was in the center.
Qin Ran came to a huge stone wall, the wall was covered with dark green moss, and bent down to look at the junction between the stone wall and the ground for a long time, and she suddenly got into the stone crack that seemed to be only a palm wide.
As soon as the torch touched the crack in the stone, the withered branches and leaves of the grass and vine were immediately burned, revealing its original appearance, it turned out that there was a gap between the stone walls that could allow two people to pass side by side, and it was difficult to find without careful observation and identification.
Stepping on the ground with a strong smell of dirt and fish, holding his breath, Qin Ran moved in small steps, the stone walls on both sides gradually became dry, turned a corner, and suddenly opened up, the narrow and dark path became spacious, but the light of the torches was limited, Qin Ran couldn't see higher and farther, and he didn't know if there was danger ahead.
As soon as the thought came to her, she threw a fire fold out with all her might.
Before the fire fold landed, suddenly, a noise rushed towards her, Qin Ran glanced at it, and immediately squatted down against the stone wall with her head in her arms, and a group of small-eared bats with fangs flew over her head and flew towards the path where she came.
Picking up the torch and raising his eyes, Qin Ran was shocked.
"Is this really what Dad said?" Qin Xiaowu said that he had seen the 'Wandering Spirit' float into this place with his own eyes.
Spooky, scary?
No, Qin Ran seemed to be in a fairyland.
Like a fairy brushing dust, a soft light sprinkled down, and everywhere you look, it becomes colorful.
The karst cave is formed in the limestone area of groundwater dissolution for a long time, because of the different calcareous content and erosion degree, there is a strange landscape in the karst cave, the stone flower stalagmites of a thousand forms, the steep and beautiful karst stone wall, and even the evergreen and lush evergreen woody vines that climb the wall along the body, as well as the colorful flowers, its taste is fragrant, its shape is magnificent, its color is gorgeous, the internal space of the cave is very large, there is a pool of clear water directly below the stalactites of a string of water droplets, it is crystal clear, and the water surface lies quietly with a few lotus flowers with buds to be released.
Sleeping white lotus, pure and transparent, quiet and peaceful, full of aura.
Standing in place, Qin Ran didn't move for a while.
Upon closer inspection, she looked closer, a few paces away from her, and placed two large stone slabs to her left and right, facing the pool, like two pious and loyal guardians, silent and silent for a long time.
After hesitating for a moment, Qin Ran tried to push the stone slab away, but the stone slab did not move at all, obviously, it was difficult to shake it with the strength of one person.
There was no way, Qin Ran took off a glove, tried to put his hand on the stone wall, closed his eyes lightly, and then, there was a tingling sensation from his fingertips, and his palm burned.
Li Chen and several people knew that Qin Ran had a habit of wearing a pair of gloves of special material every day, especially when she had to touch the corpse when handling a case, others thought it was some kind of habit of hers, however, only she knew the reason, if she directly touched those objects whose vitality was gradually disappearing, she was extremely likely to see something that she shouldn't see.
Sometimes, it can be a shortcut, and sometimes, it can also be a nuisance, so Qin Ran won't use it easily.
Now, when Qin Ran touched the stone wall, his eyes suddenly blurred.
As it became clearer, she felt as if someone had lifted the curtain, and through the layers of smoke, she caught a silhouette that had existed for some time, and inexplicably, her eyes became hot and moist.
It's him, his back!
Standing alone, he stayed on the surface of the water and sniffed the white lotus.
Ignoring the rest, Qin Ran frantically rushed towards the pool, step by step, running to the center, trying to catch him, even if it was only a mirror.
