Chapter 1: The Ring of Mystery
Somewhere in the valley of China
"Poof", a man dressed in black suddenly spurted a mouthful of blood on the astrolabe in front of him.
The man didn't care, he touched the blood on his mouth, and laughed maniacally, "Yellow Emperor, I tried my best to cover up the heavens, but that person was still found by me, and I must be the one who wins in the end, haha......"
...............
North District, H City, on an office building.
"Lin Fan, don't leave yet"
"Hehe, I'm still a little short here, you can go first," a young man laughed
"Okay, I'll go first."
"Hey" Lin Fan nodded, and then his attention returned to the computer in front of him.
At this time, the entire company was already empty, and it was pitch black all around, except for the cold light above his head, and the constant tapping sound of the keyboard echoed in the silence of the space.
I don't know how long it took for Lin Fan to finally finish his work and stretch his somewhat stiff shoulders.
Glancing at the time below the screen, it was almost half past eight.
He quickly got up and packed his things and prepared to go home.
"Hey, Lin Fan, you didn't go home so late" The security guard at the door greeted Lin Fan when he saw him coming out of the elevator
"Hehe, you're on duty tonight."
"That's right."
"Then you boil slowly, I'll go home first."
"Well, I don't think the weather is good outside, so you better hurry home," the security guard kindly prompted
"yes, then I have to hurry, lest I become a soup chicken in a while, see you tomorrow"
Lin Fan waved his hand and hurriedly walked out, never thinking that as soon as he arrived at the door, he heard a muffled thunder in the sky, and the rain poured down in an instant.
"I'll go, don't you want to be so unlucky," Lin Fan was speechless for a moment
"I'll just say it," the security guard couldn't help but laugh
"Do you have an umbrella?"
"It's unfortunate, I just received it in the warehouse yesterday, and the key is with the captain," the security guard shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "Otherwise, you can take a taxi"
Lin Fan hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Forget it, just drench."
After speaking, I saw that he directly put the backpack in his hand on the top of his head, and ran out quickly.
This wave of operations really made the security guard stunned for a while, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile, "This guy, let's save a little."
Although Lin Fan said so, he regretted it a little as soon as he ran out of the door of the office building. The rain was so heavy tonight that the little bag on his head didn't do anything at all, and the raindrops slapped down his face with the wind, making him feel a pain that made it difficult to open his eyes.
However, the wet was already wet, and there was no point in returning to the building, so Lin Fan had no choice but to run in the direction of the bus stop. Fortunately, there is no one on the road now, and he can let go.
Lin Fan was running forward along the road, when a black shadow suddenly appeared in the rain curtain in front of him, the speed of the black shadow was very fast, and he came to Lin Fan in the blink of an eye, Lin Fan couldn't dodge it or hit the man's shoulder.
A small black box then fell from the other man's hand, but the man didn't seem to notice it, and ran straight into the distance.
Lin Fan hurriedly stopped, turned around and shouted at the man, "Friend, your things have dropped."
The man didn't seem to hear Lin Fan's shout, and disappeared directly into the torrential rain without looking back.
Lin Fan looked at the things on the ground and didn't know what to do with them for a while.
"Forget it, let's find a way to hand it over to the police tomorrow" Lin Fan hesitated for a moment and picked up the black package on the ground
Hurrying and hurrying to catch the last bus.
When he returned to the rented apartment, it was almost ten o'clock, Lin Fan threw the things in his hand aside, quickly took off his soaked clothes, and then collapsed on the sofa all of a sudden.
Lin Fan stared blankly at the ceiling above his head, every time he returned to this cold room, he always had an indescribable sense of loneliness.
Just twenty-three years ago, on the same rainy night, Lin Fan, who was still in swaddling clothes, didn't know who threw him at the door of an orphanage in H City, but fortunately, a kind dean found him at that time, otherwise he might not have survived that night.
Although he lost his parents, Lin Fan still spent a happy childhood with other friends in the orphanage.
Then he completed high school and college with the financial support of some well-wishers in the society.
Every holiday, Lin Fan would always return to the orphanage for the first time to visit the old dean and those playmates when he was a child, until the old dean died of illness four years ago, and the orphanage was disbanded, but fortunately, the children in the orphanage also found their own adoptive families with the help of relevant departments, and Lin Fan let go of a worry.
After graduating from college, Lin Fan thought about it for a long time and finally returned to this familiar city.
In fact, it is because he still has a hope in his heart, that is, he can meet his parents again one day.
Lin Fangan sat for a while, and finally came back to his senses.
I warmed up the leftovers of yesterday's meal in the microwave and watched the TV program aimlessly.
Then a black box came into view in the corner of the table, and he suddenly remembered that it was the one he had picked up in the rain, and when he got home, he threw it on the ground along with the clothes.
Lin Fan bent down to pick up the box on the ground and looked at it carefully.
The surface of the box does not look special, it is pitch black, it feels like some kind of wood, and the openings are delicately designed, as if it is a special kind of mechanism.
Lin Fan shook slightly, but didn't hear any sound.
So he tried to flip it through lightly, originally without much hope, but the result surprised Lin Fan, and only listened to the "click", and the box was opened so lightly.
There was nothing in the box except a dark gold ring.
Lin Fan curiously picked up the ring and looked at it carefully, he actually had a sense of déjà vu, only to see a round ball engraved in the center of the ring, and on both sides of the ball was a giant dragon with teeth and claws, and all the details of the body were carved extremely exquisitely, and he vaguely felt that there was some kind of strange halo circulating on it.
Lin Fan's eyes were attracted by this ring, and he couldn't help but try to put it on his hand.
At this moment, he suddenly felt the ring on his hand vibrate slightly.
When Ding Qing saw it, he couldn't help but be surprised, only to see that the two dragons on the ring seemed to suddenly come to life and began to swim on the surface of the ring, and then a small light blue light cluster was projected from the round object, and the light cluster gradually expanded and finally stopped in front of Lin Fan.
At this moment, Lin Fan didn't know what he was thinking, so he actually poked the ball of light with his finger like a ghost.
The moment his fingers touched the ball of light, the ball of light suddenly burst out with dazzling white light, and the next second Lin Fan lost consciousness.
"Hehe, is it finally going to begin" A cold voice came from the darkness
"The gears of fate have finally begun to turn," an old man with white hair on the top of Kunlun Mountain dropped the white child in his hand.
