Chapter 21: The Dust Settles
Everyone focused their eyes on Long San, expecting his answer, and on the other side, Qin Ran pulled Lu Han to the side. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's okay." Gently pressing the trapezius muscle on his shoulder, which represents burden and pressure, Qin Ran said softly.
"Sister..."Putting his head on Qin Ran, after thinking about it, Lu Han moved his chin to her shoulder, swayed left and right, and secretly wiped off some traces.
His eyes drifted to the man, and Lu Han was thoughtful.
His movements like Aunt Zhang's puppy next door made Qin Ran couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth.
From the time she picked up him wet by the river, Lu Han was one of the most important people in her life for Qin Ran.
He chose to believe in her and follow her, and at the last moment, he still didn't complain, and this trust was engraved in Qin Ran's bone marrow.
Fortunately, Qin Ran finally met him again, so soft and glutinous Ah Bao grew as tall as her, Lu Han is not only a friend, a partner, and a relative, compared to Qin Xiaowu and others in this world, they are the closest - another bloodline in the subconscious. Because in the previous life, in the universe, each "person" came from a test tube, and genetic engineering was constantly optimized, and all random genes were maximally deployed and improved, so as to obtain a unique independent body.
"Fool, what are you tossing around with them... So much so that you can't even get the rope open? Seeing that his wrists were worn out of some skin, Qin Ran's eyes were cold.
"Sister, we're almost going to be thrown into the oil pot!" Feeling so comfortable leaning on her, Lu Han didn't move, and only whispered in her ear. "It's not just me, Brother Chen, they can't cut this broken rope, it's like being cast a spell."
Let him turn around, Qin Ran couldn't help but squint when he looked at the rope buckle - the professional sailor's knot seems to be simple and ordinary, but in fact it is complicated and reliable, can ordinary people easily open it?
Moreover, a look at the material of the rope is not ordinary.
The rope is usually made of more than two strands of cotton, linen, brown and other fibers, and the rope in front of you, if you don't look carefully, you can't find that the hemp rope that binds Lu Han is actually doped with metal wire!
Not to mention whether this era has produced an extremely slender and tough wire process, only financial resources are invested in this item, and those who own it should not be underestimated, if it appears in the treasure house of any country, Qin Ran can understand it, and it can barely be understood if it appears in the nest of mountain bandits, but the mountain bandits use it to bind it casually, how can it be explained?
For a moment, Qin Ran's gaze deepened and he looked to the side.
……
In a word, Ryuuji succeeded in diverting everyone's attention.
If Ryuzo thinks that the person standing in front of him at this moment is a Xibei goods, then Ryuzo must know where the real Ryuji is, and the words of the fake Ryuji are intriguing.
There were not many mountain bandits who had experienced that incident, because most of the mountain bandits who accompanied Long Er and Long San down the mountain were nowhere to be found, and the people who stayed on the mountain at that time gradually left, either out of fear or because of others.
After saying that, including Li Chen, the three of them were keenly aware that Long San had a big problem.
At this point, Long Yi sat down with his buttocks, his left hand on the armrest, a little too hard, the back of his bent hand was raised, he slightly retracted his chin, his eyes kept rolling back and forth, anxious, just a breath, Long Yi had scratched his left ear with his right hand, and then stretched out to his lower back, his movements were trying to hide some emotions in his heart, and wanted to flee the scene.
"You obviously have some suspicions in your heart, why don't you confront him?" Long Yi's reaction fell on Long Er's eyes, and he held his chin in his hand and asked directly.
The feeling of being poked in the center is indescribable, and the dragon is restless at first, and his eyes are a little evasive to the only eye that Ryuji has, looking away.
Seeing that Long Yi was silent, Long San died in a hurry, and the eldest brother began to doubt him?
"You prick your mouth and chop wood (nonsense), big brother, don't listen to him, he is stirring up the relationship between our brothers!" With a void in his heart, Ryuzo jumped up and pointed at Ryuji with his index finger, but his back was wet.
was going to demolish him, but Long San didn't know that he was being attacked by the army and bit him hard!
"Stirring?" With a faint smile and turning sideways, Long Er glanced in the direction of Qin Ran without a trace, and continued. "After all these years, you really haven't thought about what happened that day? Every night in a dream, have you really never seen a bloody Ryuuji? ”
Long San clenched his fists in a hurry, the frequency of blinking increased, and he was about to break through Long Yi's psychological defense.
There was a moment of silence in the room, and everyone focused their eyes on the three people.
Without waiting for any other reaction, all of a sudden, a cold wind blew in from nowhere, and it was bitterly cold, and the room suddenly became dark again.
After the strange silence, it was then a mess, the eyes were dark, the mountain bandits were running around, the sound of porcelain bowls and wine cups breaking, the sound of tables and chairs and shelves overturning, one after another, someone ran to open the window and open the door, but found that the doors and windows were locked and could not be opened.
"Second brother, second brother... Big brother I'm sorry for you. Long Yi was about to collapse, and as soon as the cold wind blew, he immediately trembled, fell to his knees, and muttered loudly, because he did often dream that Long Er came to him, stained with blood, and his limbs were incomplete, and he looked extremely miserable.
After that, Long Yi was often uneasy, the county government was about to die a tragic death, and their brothers who went down the mountain disappeared mysteriously, not because of ghosts, but for the ghosts inside, over the years, when he thought of Long San's attitude towards this, the fact that he had never dared to believe in his heart surfaced - his greedy and lustful third brother would kill his second brother with his own hands and make up a big lie!
The swift capture at the foot of the mountain was slain by him.
The brothers around him were killed by him.
He didn't know why Long San wanted to kill his second brother, Long Yi never figured it out!
"Get out... I don't care about you! It was pitch black, as if a thin snake had clinged to him, squirming around his neck, and the cold, lubricated touch made the cold hairs on Long San's body stand on end, and he knelt down with a puff and stammered nervously.
I haven't seen ghosts, I'm not non-existent, I walk more at night, and it's inevitable to encounter ghosts!
"Who is going to stop Lao Tzu from getting the treasure? Whoever deserves to die! He's damned! "Long San's breath was stagnant, only to feel that the snake was getting tighter and tighter, and the bloody picture of that day appeared in front of his eyes, and Long San's consciousness began to be unclear." Haha, gold, jade, precious stones, elixir and jade dew... It's all Lao Tzu! ”
Ryuzo is like an evil spirit, for some reason, the scene of more than ten years ago appeared in front of his eyes.
Long Er, Long San took people down the mountain that day, turned into a small road halfway, Long San remembered the legend about the crack in the sinkhole, pulled Long Er and a few people to run to find out, but accidentally stumbled into a cave, for a while, Long San seemed to be stunned, crazy pounced on the gem, and Long San wanted to stop him, Long San actually stabbed Long Er with a knife, and the others heard the sound and were tragically poisoned.
Afterwards, when Long San woke up, where was there any treasure, only the corpses of the brothers who followed him into the cave were left, knowing that he was in trouble, Long San was ruthless, and he slaughtered the county government with his henchmen who extended the cracks in the ground, and wrote and directed a script that he thought was seamless.
But he didn't know that Long Er was not injured to death, and was saved by a passing Taoist priest after pushing Long San off the cliff, and after a few years of stealing his life, the fake Dragon Er happened to hear this story about the cave.
The deeper the obsession, the more likely it is to hallucinate, and the more self-extricable.
……
As soon as the mountain bandits were in chaos, Qin Ran took the opportunity to sneak over to Li Chen's side and untie the rope for them.
A few people didn't have time to catch Long Yi and the others, the door of the house was opened, the lights were bright, and the contrast between one black and one bright was huge, making everyone close their eyes tightly.
"Squat down, or you'll be killed by random arrows."
"The army?" Seeing the rows of dazzling swords and armor, Li Chen finally showed joy and was relieved.
"It's okay... We weren't tied up, or we would have lost our lives. Exhaling secretly, Cheng He wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and squatted honestly in the corner.
Where black and white were clear, Qin Ran raised his eyes and looked at the man on horseback.
The fire was shining, I saw him in a red robe and black pants, a coat of bright light armor, with a clear outline, a pair of thick eyebrows and starry eyes, eyes like torches, as if more than the light in the night, he rode a black horse, the horse was like the master, the nasal cavity was exhaling, he was holding a red tasseled spear, and from a distance, you could see a murderous aura of the battlefield Yayoi.
It's a pity that the sassy and heroic and righteous military general in front of him has a long scar on the side of his cheek.
With just one glance, Qin Ran had already guessed his identity.
Chinese New Year's Eve two, he is already the protector of the Zhennan Metropolitan Protectorate, and the Zhennan General who is the saint is the third grade - the legendary Li Ming.
Qin Ran didn't know how he happened to appear at the peak of the Dragon Tank Flat, but in the face of strong strength, suppressing bandits was a matter of minutes.
