Chapter 186: Old Ghost

Soon, they came to a flat clearing, and in the center of the clearing, a hut made of stone. The light came through the only window of the hut, and puffs of green smoke rose from the chimney.

They walked through the clearing, and Qin Wei was surprised to find that the blizzard had also become gentle here.

When they came to the door, the man stood aside: "You go in, I must go to the firewood room to collect some firewood, otherwise it will not be warm enough." ”

Qin Wei nodded silently, then pushed open the wooden door and walked in.

He went inside and saw a fireplace and a simple stove on the wall. He knew very well that this kind of Western architecture was not prevalent in the Tang Dynasty. Fireplaces like this can only be seen in Western countries. He certainly didn't go to the West, he saw it from TV.

The flames danced merrily, radiating a warm glow.

He was chilling, so he moved closer to the fireplace. Next to the fireplace, there is a table with a variety of delicacies. And these delicacies are all from the streets of Chang'an City. Their figures are out of place with the fireplace.

There was another thing on the table, a portrait. The portrait shows a tall man in a cloak. The man's eyes were the color of the blue sky and his nose was as tall as an eagle.

His hair was silvery-white, his face was not scarred, and his expression looked very kind, like that of a father.

His cloak is not black all over, but black on the outside and red on the inside.

Qin Wei felt a little familiar. He wondered if the man in the portrait was the man who had just saved him. Or will they be father and son?

After thinking about it for a while, Qin Wei finally remembered who the person on this portrait was. He looked at the portrait in surprise, stroked it with his palm, and then blurted out, "This is Auroben." ”

He muttered to himself: "This is the Aroben that Nanyue said, he is simply a person with the murals in the lobby of the Kishira Hotel." Although there are slight differences in some details and brushwork, he can be sure that the person in this portrait is also Auroben.

Why is Aroben's portrait here?

Qin Wei was puzzled.

The strange man had already walked in with firewood. He stared at Qin Wei, then asked in a deep and majestic voice, "So you know him?" ”

"No, I've only seen his portrait somewhere else." Qin Wei replied a little embarrassed.

"Where?" The man placed the wood next to the fireplace, then came and carefully rolled up the portrait, tied it with a red ribbon, and put it in a bamboo tube.

"In a small town in the twenty-first century." Qin Wei replied.

"Oh?" The man seemed interested, "He has been buried since the Tang Dynasty, how can his portrait appear in the 21st century?" Are you kidding me? ”

Qin Wei shook his head vigorously: "What I said is true, I didn't lie to you, I have indeed seen the portrait of this person in the 21st century." ”

"Who drew it?"

"A girl." Qin Wei didn't dare to reveal Nanyue's information, he was afraid that this strange man would be unfavorable to Nanyue.

"What else do you know?" The strange man poured himself a glass of wine and drank it down. He stared at Qin Wei with those white eyes. Qin Wei's heart couldn't stop trembling.

"That's all I know." Qin Wei replied weakly.

"Well, it doesn't matter." The man put down his glass, then walked over to the fireplace and added some sticks of wood to it, "Come here, come here and bake the fire, you're all soaked, you bake your clothes dry, and then we'll talk again." I love making zuò food, so if you don't mind, I'll have to prepare some for dinner tonight. ”

Qin Wei did so, but his eyes were still fixed on the strange man.

The man had already left through a small door next to him. Qin Wei guessed that it must be a kitchen.

After a while, the man came out with fragrant food. After the meal, the two of them made it to the side of the fireplace again.

"I forgot to ask your name." Qin Wei said respectfully.

"My name? Just call me an old ghost. The man laughed bitterly.

"Old ghost?" It's a strange name.

"That's right, just call me an old ghost, because I look as ugly as a ghost." The man stared at Qin Wei's handsome face and said.

Qin Wei didn't know what to say, he thought for a while, and then said, "My name is Qin Wei." ”

"I know your name is Qin Wei, and you often say to the big tree and the river that your name is Qin Wei."

Qin Wei's eyes widened in surprise: "Have you been here all along?" ”

"No, I only come here occasionally, I live in the 21st century." "It's like a resort to me, even if it's just a deserted resort." ”

He laughed again.

"How did you get in and how did you get out?" Qin Wei felt incredible, he had been trapped here for many years, but this man called the old ghost could shuttle freely.

"I don't know, I just stumbled here by accident." The old ghost handed Qin Wei a glass of wine, "Come, drink some of this, warm up." ”

Qin Wei didn't think much about it, and slowly drank the wine handed by the old ghost.

He always felt very familiar with this person. It must be an old friend. He thought to himself, but where had he seen this person?

His voice was so familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.

The harder he tried to remember, the more dizzy he felt. Maybe the wine was too strong, he thought, and leaned back on the chaise longue, slowly falling asleep.

Qin Wei saw many scenes of the 21st century in his dreams. But he feels like he's never going back to the 21st century.

There was a cacophony outside, as if someone was knocking on the door. When he opened his eyes, he saw not a humble house, but a richly decorated place.

He looked at it in amazement, he saw the TV, he saw the furniture of the 21st century, and he saw the technology of computers and air conditioners.

Don't

He stood up at once, then walked quickly to the window and looked out. There are many high-rise buildings outside, and it is obviously not Chang'an City that is imprisoned in time and space. Is it the 21st century?

The knock on the door was still ringing, and he remembered that he should go and open the door, maybe it would be Nanyue who knocked on the door. He excitedly ran to open the door, only to see a courier.

"Sir, here is a courier from you, please sign for it."

After Qin Wei signed it, he couldn't wait to open it, and there was a letter inside. He opened the letter and read it carefully. Then he quickly ran to the bathroom, where a frightened cry was heard, followed by the sound of a human being falling to the ground.

He fainted. He actually fainted, what was written in the letter? What did he see in the bathroom? (To be continued.) )
