302. Long time no see
Therefore, he didn't need Brother Yao to point out too clearly, just with his super logical thinking, at least he had deduced the usefulness of the two points of time and place. As for Renhe, I'm sure Brother Yao hinted at him, and it was likely that he had also seen the madman and Ah Man enter that space at that time. A thought flashed through his heart: The madman may have been given a blood transfusion by Gao Cheng before, so that he also had part of the "demon blood" to break through the mirror wall and escape into a special space, so what about Aman?
It's not an ordinary place, and even if Ah Man is very skilled, it's unlikely that he will be able to get in.
Gao Cheng's voice came from his ears: "The madman is accidental, and Ah Man is the key." ”
I was stunned and asked, "Can you still escape into my thinking space?" But he raised his eyebrows, "Isn't it strange?" You have to retain some ability, or how can you understand your inner thoughts? ”
I can't help but sink in my heart, his ability was born from the seed of the demon in his childhood, and he is still there, does it mean that he has a demon...... Haven't been cleared yet? Naturally, my mind could not escape his eyes, and he looked at me with a meaningful look, and said slowly: "The demon in the heart is a kind of thought, and everyone will breed. Just as people have good and evil, most people can restrain evil, and a very small number of people have evil beyond good. So how can this thing be eradicated? Before, my disadvantage was that I couldn't control it due to the influence of that space, but now that the space is destroyed, do you think I can't restrain it with my mind? ”
I breathe a sigh of relief, it would be best if that was the case.
But he suddenly took another turn: "Unless it's ......" lifted my heart again, "You have left my demons uncontrollable." ”
I was stunned, "What do you mean I make your demons uncontrollable?" ”
His eyes darkened, and he stared at me for a while: "Don't leave me." After thinking about it, he added: "You don't have a chance to get rid of me again." The tone was a little arrogant, but the eyes were serious.
I pouted my lips and didn't squeak, and thought to myself: This is what I want to say.
Most of the time, he is the one who decides everything, and I don't know how many levels worse than him. And now I don't even have the ability to draw pictures, everything has to rely on details to reason and analyze, and if Gao Cheng is second in this regard, no one dares to admit that he is first. I can almost predict the bleak situation of being eaten by him in the future, but, so what, I am willing.
Besides, who eats who will also depend on how to define it.
In a sense, don't I eat this man to death? When I think about it, my heart is relieved. Of course, this is all a conclusion that I slowly pondered when Gao Cheng was away, and in front of him, I didn't want to be spied on by him.
It seems that some things are destined by heaven in the dark, and after all the dust settles, Chu City began to sink.
We had no choice but to advance the return voyage, and the madman looked sorry and reluctant, saying that he had suffered for so long and had a baby, and he had selfless dedication before he could cover the heat, and he had to let him return to his roots. But in those days, he searched all corners of Chu City, but he couldn't find any usable materials. But after turning around and getting on the boat, he forgot about it, because Gao Cheng threw him an ancient book of the Chu State.
I don't know what is written in the ancient books, but I know that the madman treats it as a treasure and burrows into the cabin every day to study it without showing up. Until the boat arrived on the shore, he came out with his unkempt hair, and came to Gao Cheng in high spirits, with a very respectful attitude: "Brother Cheng." ”
The sip of tea I just drank didn't hold back and squirted out, and it happened to be spilled on the madman. The madman was not annoyed, and said to Gao Cheng's flattering face: "Can you give two more simple books to the younger brother?" ”
Gao Cheng glanced at him and said lightly, "Look at your performance." ”
The madman's eyes lit up, and he grinned and showed a mouthful of white teeth: "Okay, Brother Cheng, you go slowly, I'll open the way for you first." "This dog-legged look, even I can't look at it, don't turn your face.
After landing on the shore, I just felt emotional, and suddenly heard Luo Jinghan calling behind: "Brother Cheng, Xiaozhu." ”
When we turned around, Luo Jinghan's eyes were dark, but his usual smile was missing, and he said, "I have to go home." ”
I was stunned, some memories are extremely distant, I forgot that his real name is Gao Han, he is the son of the landlord of H City, and he has a family. In those years, he was adrift and experienced life and death, which can really be regarded as unfilial.
Gao Cheng's reaction was not big, he only nodded and said, "Wait for you to come back." ”
Luo Jinghan smiled, didn't say too many sour words, only shrugged his shoulders and said, "Let's go." Then he turned and walked away, his back straight.
Gently tugging at the sleeve of the person next to me, I asked, "Will he come back?" ”
Gao Cheng pursed the corners of his mouth: "Group D is gone, it's time for him to fulfill his own obligations." But when he is needed, he will naturally come back. "Sounds inexplicably a little sad, for him. The clouds on the surface are light and the wind is light, and the heart is not lost.
It's a madman, who was dragged away by Ah Man, and they want to find Xu Jiu and successively. When the madman left, he was teary-eyed, but not to me, but to Gao Cheng, and he still said doglegs: "Brother Cheng, you have to reserve the right for me." I'm going to find Xiao Jiu and Xiao Liu, and I'll be loyal to you soon. ”
Gao Cheng was disgusted like a fly: "You have to go quickly." ”
The madman walked more than ten meters away and suddenly yelled: "Little box, wait for me to come back." ”
As a result, Gao Cheng's face suddenly turned black, and he stared at the two figures in the distance with hatred, and burst out from between his teeth: "I'd rather throw away the scrap station than think about getting my Chu nationality again." ”
I was speechless.
It was night, and after the sorrow, I rarely held Gao Cheng with possessiveness. Speaking of which, in my life, just like his criticism of me that year, family affection is indifferent, friendship is missing, and love is missing roots. It's just that later, family affection was realized for me in another way, friendship automatically came closer, and the nerves of love were also found by Gao Cheng.
Just holding him like this, I felt that my heartbeat didn't belong to me, because of the person in front of me.
I can't classify the emotions I have towards him, the repressed, the poignant, the fragmented, the inseparable, the gains and losses, and the desire to hold them tightly in my hands forever, all of which add up to an indescribable feeling.
"Little bamboo, what are you thinking?"
I snuggled up to him, "Can't you see it?" ”
He was silent for a moment, and then considered his words: "Your thinking just now is too scattered, I can't get in." I was stunned at first, then laughed and looked at his eyes shining: "Actually, your ability has also regressed." ”
There was a flash of annoyance in my dark eyes, which confirmed my inference even more, and I was sorry for it. In the end, it was half a lifetime of floating loads, which gave me a slight upper hand, and I knew how to deal with him in the future.
Silent reflux, steady breathing. Just as Gao Cheng squinted his eyes as if he was about to fall asleep, I whispered in his ear, "Shall we go to a place tomorrow?" He snorted lightly and asked, "H City?" ”
I smiled and said, "No." ”
"Where are you going?"
"Bamboo County."
###
End
Zhu County is named after bamboo, surrounded by bamboo forests.
I've been living here for a year, barely leaving the house, and I'm trying to trap myself in prison.
I didn't stop when I passed by the former rented house, but only glanced at it from a distance. It seems that the door is tightly locked, and I don't know if there are new tenants after I leave, so it is still empty. Gao Cheng didn't ask me why I didn't come forward or where I was going, but just quietly followed me.
Knocking on the door, it was a middle-aged woman who looked at us with a puzzled expression: "Who are you looking for?" ”
I smiled lightly: "Is Elder Yan here?" ”
The middle-aged woman was stunned, and then her eyes showed sadness, "My grandfather passed away two months ago. This news surprised me very much, and when I looked closely, I saw that the woman's hair was with white flowers, and I hurriedly said, "I'm sorry." ”
The woman shook her head: "It's okay, do you have something to find my grandfather?" ”
I was stunned, knowing that it was inconvenient, but I still spoke: "I came to visit Mr. Yan half a year ago, when Mr. Yan showed us a painting, and today I brought an expert in painting to see it again." The implication is that Gao Cheng is naturally the "expert in painting", and his eyebrows were raised in the afterglow.
The middle-aged woman said with a somewhat ignorant face: "Most of Ah Gong's relics have been burned, I don't know which painting you are talking about, I'll look for it, you wait here first." Then she turned to the door, took two steps and turned back, and stopped talking. Seeing this, I said, "Sister-in-law might as well have something to say." So she asked, "Is that painting worth a lot?" His eyes went straight to Gao Cheng.
I secretly took Gao Cheng's hand and motioned for him to say something. I heard him cough lightly, and said slowly: "You can't price it until you see the painting." The woman's face was happy, and she turned and went into the back room with a "yes" in her mouth.
We waited outside for more than ten minutes before we saw the middle-aged woman come out nervously, "Come and take a look, is this painting?" "There was a picture scroll in her hand, and after I took it, I unfolded one of them, and a Buddha statue jumped on the paper, which was the one that Yan Lao showed me at the beginning. In the end, under Gao Cheng's "appraisal", the painting was bought for 5,000 yuan, and the woman happily went out with the money, saying that she was going to save it.
After finding a quiet place, I unfolded the painting again and asked Gao Cheng, "Who do you think the Buddha statue on this painting looks like?" ”
He didn't answer and asked, "Didn't you take me to see this painting and have an answer a long time ago?" I was silent for a moment and said, "I'm not too sure." Instead, he smiled and looked at me meaningfully, "It's not that you're not sure, but you think it's impossible." This painting must be hundreds of years old, how could it be him? So you want me to be sure, right? ”
I was not surprised at all that he saw through my thoughts, nodded and asked again, "Do you think so?" ”
"Yes or no, it's just an imaginary image, I can only tell you that the image in this painting has the essence of Sheng Shiyao's seven points."
Yes, Sheng Shiyao.
When I first saw this painting, I felt an indescribable sense of familiarity. Later, too many things happened, and I gradually forgot about it, and when I was about to go back to Zhuxian for a trip, a string in the depths of my memory was plucked again, so the first thing was to confirm. Because it is not a direct portrait, but a painting that is made after it has been molded into a statue, but whether it is the carver or the painter, they are extremely clever people.
Gao Cheng asked me with a smile: "You didn't come back here just for him, did you?" His eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes revealed a dangerous glow. I immediately denied: "Of course not. It's just to clear up the doubts in my mind. ”
"So what's 'important' about that? Let's do it together. ”
I lowered my eyes and was silent, and after a half-sound, I said, "Come with me to a place." ”
When I walked to the front of the police station, it was almost evening, and the sky was gradually getting dark. The inmates began to get off work, and when they came out, they were surprised to see me, and they came up to say hello. At that time, I left my job to handle the case, but it was not disclosed in the office, but I was just resigned for some reason. Someone wanted to pull me to dinner, but I resigned, saying that I would wait for Lao Li.
It didn't take long for everyone to disperse, and only Gao Cheng was left to wait by the door with me. He didn't ask me why I didn't go in, he just leaned against the wall to hide his breath.
It was about seven o'clock, when it was completely dark, and I saw that the lights in the police station were turned off.
A figure walked out of the main entrance, locked it methodically, and then turned and strode over. I crouched in the shadows and watched silently, wondering why it was only then that I realized that he was actually very tall, and that he walked with a very open and steady and powerful step.
With a slight movement of his feet, a deep cry came from the darkness: "Who's there?" Hoarse with a familiar voice.
Subconsciously straightened his waist, the black shadow had already strode over, and the closer the distance became, the more clearly Lao Li's familiar and unfamiliar face could be seen. When he looked down and saw that it was me, he asked in surprise, "Xiao Xia, why are you?" ”
I didn't straighten up, I kept my head up in a crouching position, and I had looked at him from this perspective countless times with fear and reverence. For a long time, when doubts appeared on the other party's face, I called softly: "Sir, long time no see." ”<
