falling dust

Jiang Lian pushed the door open with both hands and stood at the door, his eyes swept across Jun Huai coldly, turned to Yun Shi and said coldly: "Come in".

In this warm spring season, Yun Shi and Jun Huai shivered at the same time. Jun Huai glanced at Jiang Lian. When the girl got cold, her body temperature could freeze a person into ice. He said to Yun Shi embarrassingly: "I heard The girl is not in good health, so don't blow too much wind here." After saying that, he hurried back to the room.

Yun Shi closed the door with his backhand, and said, "You were so tired last night, why didn't you take a rest?"

Jiang Lian glanced at her and said in a cold voice, "Aren't you tired? Even if I wanted to sleep, I was so disturbed by two sparrows that I couldn't sleep."

Yun Shi hurriedly said, "It's my fault that disturbed you."

"It's none of your business"

"Yes, none of my business."

"..."

Cold sweat in the cloud!Jiang Lian, who usually has almost no other emotions except indifference, seems very angry today? ...

Seeing her distracted, Jiang Lian's slightly warm eyes turned cold again: "Still sleeping?"

In addition to the coldness, there was also a trace of anger and irresistible majesty in this cold voice mixed with wind and snow. Yun Shi had never heard her tone like this before. At this moment, he was surprised at why she was so abnormal this morning, but obediently lifted her head. Lie down under the quilt.

After waking up from sleep, when Yun Shi opened his eyes, Jiang Lian was sitting at the table holding Xuezang that had been unsheathed in her hand. At this time, she was carefully observing the silver sword. Although Jiang Lian didn't care about the past memories, But after all, I still want to know, no matter who's previous life is blank, he still wants to find out. Yun Shi suddenly didn't want to find any adventures. Jiang Lian and her took care of her for several months, and she always wanted to give her something in return, and It is different from the previous debts, but I really want to do something for her.

Xu felt the gaze behind him, but Jiang Lian didn't turn his head and said indifferently: "Are you awake?" His tone was not as indifferent as in the morning.

Yun Shi quietly breathed a sigh of relief, Jiang Lian frowned imperceptibly, Yun Shi didn't know it, lifted the quilt and got up and sat next to Jiang Lian, raised his hand to pour cold tea, met Jiang Lian's cold gaze with hesitation After a while, she shrank back, wondering, she was fine just now, what happened now, she didn't dare to say what she wanted to say, if she did, the yard would be frozen to her.

Jiang Lian pushed the door and went out, Yun Shi went to tidy up the bed, and Jiang Lian came back with a cup of steaming hot tea in his hand. When she smiled, her eyebrows and eyes were curved, like two upside-down new moons, not like her usual stunning, but warm.

Her smile turned the winter look on Jiang Lian's face into spring. Unexpectedly, this beauty trick would also be useful to Jiang Lian. Seeing that Jiang Lian's face softened, she began to think about how to tell Jiang Lian what she thought.

Before she could open her mouth, Gu Ying came to ask them to eat with joy on her brows, it turned out that Gu Ying's husband had returned from mining.

During the dinner, when Yun Shi looked at him, he found that his outline was deeper than others, as if he was of foreign blood. It seemed that his two daughters had similar facial features and eyes, both with watery deep eyes.

During the dinner, only the four of them chatted with Gu Ying. Gu Ying's husband was named Qing Huai. Is extremely happy.

After Qing Huai had fed the two little daughters, he suddenly raised his head and said to Gu Ying, "I've stayed tonight, and I'm going to the mountains again tomorrow."

Gu Ying asked: "Why? Didn't you only go to the mountain in March?"

Qing Huai sighed: "I don't know why a corner of the mine has collapsed. If the collapsed mine is not mined back, the mountain will be washed away when it rains. When I came back, I went to the mayor. He asked me to bring some more tomorrow. People go, after picking this time, you don’t have to go next time.”

Gu Ying said: "Then let's go."

Yun Shi suddenly realized that this was a good opportunity, and couldn't help looking at Jiang Lian, who happened to meet Jiang Lian's gaze, and the two of them knew each other.

When it was still hazy, he heard Qing Huai and Gu Ying's voices in the courtyard, Yun Shi was startled, he was leaving before dawn, so early?

Apparently Jiang Lian heard it too, and the two hurriedly took their belongings and turned out of the window. They followed Qinghuai all the way, and saw him go through the large forest behind the town and circle to the cliff north of Mount Heng, where more than a dozen people had gathered. The young and middle-aged man, seeing Qing Huai at this moment, would call him Brother Qing, obviously he also has some prestige among the crowd.

It's also because there are very few outsiders in this town, so Qing Huai didn't notice Jiang Lian and Yun Shi behind him, and after greeting everyone, he opened the mechanism to enter the mountain without hesitation.

Jiang Lian and Yun Shi hid behind a tree, Yun Shi just thought that Jiang Lian had really hit the spot, they actually entered the mountain from the cliff, after Qinghuai and the others went in, Jiang Lian and Yun Shi arrived However, due to the long distance, I did not see clearly how the organ was opened.

Yun Shi stood at Qinghuai's position and imitated him by pressing one hand to the mountain wall, only to hear the sound of the machine clicking. A stone slab measuring one foot square protruded from the mountain wall next to it. On it was a stone carving about an inch square. The outline was like a winged bird. The bird that was about to fly, Yun Shi felt a little familiar.

Seeing her in a daze, Jiang Lian thought she was thinking about the mechanism, and looked around carefully, and found nothing but the protruding stone slab. It seems that the mechanism is still on the stone carving, but it seems to be related to Qinghuai just now. is different.

Suddenly Yun Shi suddenly said, "This is not an ordinary bird, but... a phoenix!"

Jiang Lian said: "Most people in the world believe in gods, so it is not surprising that they use the divine bird and phoenix as stone carvings."

"No, the strange thing is this..." Yun Shi said as he took out a red jade pendant from his waist.

The whole body of the jade pendant was blood-colored, the red was extremely enchanting, a lifelike blood phoenix was carved on it, Yun Shi clasped the jade pendant on the square stone carving, it fit perfectly, as if there was a red brilliance flowing over it, only the sound of the chain was heard The sound of the mechanism turning came through the mountain wall.

A small door three feet high was opened on the mountain wall from top to bottom. Yun Shi wondered, "Why is it different from the door that Cai Qinghuai and the others walked through just now? This door is obviously much smaller."

Jiang Lian shook his head, and ducked in. Yun Shi didn't have time to stop him, so he had to follow her. After entering, Yun Shi realized that this small door was actually not small enough for an adult to stand upright. It turned out that this passage was in the mountains It was dug out in half from the surface, and the inside was very dark, so she didn't notice it just now outside.

The two walked a few steps forward in the dark, only to hear the muffled sound of a stone slab falling heavily, and the glimmer of light that could barely come in disappeared. Jiang Lian frowned in the darkness, and Yun Shi was suddenly extremely disturbed. This dark and claustrophobic place made her panic. Jiang Lian lit a torch in time, and Yun Shi felt better. She looked to Jiang Lian and asked, "Why do you still have such a thing?"

Jiang Lian stopped for two steps and walked together with her and said: "It was prepared for going into the mountains at night, and it is just in time to use it now."

Yun Shi praised Jiang Lian in his heart for being thoughtful. She had good eyesight and never considered others, but there was no light in this place, and she could only see within three steps.

Looking at the past by the light of the fire, the passage in the distance is dark and deep, blending with the surrounding mountain walls, and it is long and endless.

The torch in Jiang Lian's hand had already been burned out. Xu Shi noticed Yun Shi's strangeness. She accurately touched Yun Shi's hand in the dark. The body that was always hot like a fire was showing the master's panic and chill at this moment. The dense moisture made Jiang Lian's eyebrows feel inexplicably depressed.

In order to break down Yunshi's attention, Jiang Lian thought for a while and said curiously: "The blood jade you took outside is very strange, how do you know it can open this secret passage."

Yun Shi naturally knew what she meant, and he was grateful in his heart, but he still focused on explaining: "At first I only thought that engraving was familiar, but after observing it, I realized that it was similar to the Phoenix Token my mother gave me. I didn't know it had this effect. It is unexpected to be able to open this secret passage.”

Jiang Lian asked suspiciously, "What is the Phoenix Token?"

Yun Shi said: "My mother gave it to me when I was a child. In the past, I only used it as an ordinary accessory. I didn't know it had this function."

"En." Jiang Lian responded, seeing that her condition had eased up and she said less, she only concentrated on detecting the movement around her, after all, it was pitch black, and it was unknown whether there was any danger.

After walking for a long time, I suddenly heard a very small sound in my ears, like the sound of someone whimpering. There was a bit of penetration in this dark passage. There was no end to this passage, and now I heard this strange sound in my ears. It didn't sound like a human voice, Yun Shi frowned slightly, seeing Jiang Lian's steady steps, she put aside the discomfort in her heart and walked quickly towards the sound.

Only half a moment after they left, a gust of cold wind came from the side, Yun Shi was overjoyed, the wind blowing proved that she was about to reach the exit, she stared forward, but it was still pitch black, with no light at all.

Yun Shi was puzzled, it shouldn't be, there must be an outlet for the wind, she walked forward without giving up, and after taking a few steps, she suddenly realized that the wind was blowing from the side, it was too dark, she didn't realize this There was a narrow path on the side, and the whimpering sound was caused by the wind whirling through the narrow path.

After walking for a long time, she already wanted to go out, and now this path is very likely to be the exit, she asked Jiang Lian to wait here first, she went to explore the road, who knew that she stepped out of Jiang Lian's back foot and followed, she Although he was helpless, he also roughly knew what kind of temperament this girl was, so he didn't say much, and walked forward fumblingly.

The wind became stronger as it went forward, and accompanied by the sound of water falling to the ground, Yun Shi said happily: "There is really an exit." After saying that, his pace became faster, and Jiang Lian followed her at a leisurely pace.

It was only when he could see the light that Yunshi realized that they were behind a waterfall. They were in a large cave. They just approached the waterfall but somehow got out. Cautiously looking down from the hole, she felt ashamed. The pool below was several times larger than the lake in Hengyou Town. She was afraid of water, which was another shortcoming of hers.

Jiang Lian frowned after seeing it from the other side, and didn't know how to go on. The two looked at each other and didn't know what to do.

Jiang Lian suggested: "If we go back and move forward, maybe there is another exit?"

Yun Shi was not sure about her tone, besides, it was a torment to walk in that claustrophobic passage, but this water... She was entangled in her heart.

When she was struggling, Jiang Lian went to the entrance of the cave to investigate again. After this investigation, she found that although the rock wall was extremely steep, it was not without a place to stay. After Yun Shi said about it, after investigating, Yun Shi said excitedly: "I just went to see the big water pool, but I didn't look at the rock wall carefully, it's because you are careful."

She cared to Jiang Lian: "I'm fine, but what about you? I've never seen you do light work."

Jiang Lian gave her a reassuring look and said lightly, "I'm fine."

During this period of time, Jiang Lian gave her a feeling of peace of mind, a sense of being prepared for everything, so she stopped asking, and only made a little preparation, Jiang Lian let her go first.

There was no pressure between the ups and downs, and after a while, she had already descended tens of feet. She looked up at Jiang Lian, and when she saw that everything was fine, she was ready to continue.

Suddenly, fine sand and stones fell down, and when Yun Shi raised her eyes, she was blinded by the sand and stones. She closed her eyes instinctively and heard the sound of wind whizzing down beside her. Regardless of the discomfort in her eyes, she forcefully opened them, and then Seeing a water-colored figure falling down sharply, and seeing that he was about to fall into the deep pool, Yun Shi stomped on the stone wall with both feet and rushed towards the figure like an offline arrow, killing her before the figure fell into the deep pool. Take it in your arms.
