How can the general be paralyzed?

"If you want to destroy the abandoned house, use this method." Qin Ran drew a sketch of the abandoned house on the ground with a burnt wooden branch, pointed to the position of the lotus base of the Buddha statue, threw the wooden branch, and clapped the hands Huidao, "Who starts..."

The four of them sat on the lotus futon without opening their mouths.Ye Qiu was as cold as ice, he didn't speak and no one forced him.With the suet jade pei in his arms, Yan Chen kept silent, staring at Qin Ran with ill intentions from time to time, as if he was on the verge of trying it first.

As for Qin Ran, as the one who saw the eye of the formation from the side, he was the last one anyway.No one else can do this.

After looking at each other for a long while, He Bo bit the bullet and said, "Why don't I come first."

Before starting, He Bo asked Qin Ran: "Is everyone telling a story?"

Qin Ran said: "That's right."

He Bo frowned: "Do you have to experience it yourself?"

Qin Ran: "Talk about what you know best. If you don't have personal experience, you can get a little weird. It's best if you can attract people to listen."

It is said that it is for "people", but in fact, everyone present knows that it is for "it".

He Bo let his mind go, meditated for a moment, and then slowly said: "This matter starts with the story of a water ghost..."

"Du Wusheng committed suicide by throwing himself into the water, and the contract with the water ghost has a beginning and an end." He Bo hesitated to add, "Because there are very few surviving villagers in the village, and even the incense of the temple has also disappeared."

After listening to the whole story, Qin Ran asked unsatisfactorily: "This is only the first life, I remember that the contract is this life, this life, and the next life. Then how will the story of the next life develop?"

He Bo's lips twitched without making a sound, Qin Ran looked at his side face and smiled inexplicably, without asking, burned a handful of paper money in the middle of the palm-sized circle formed by Ye Qiu.

The paper money was collected from every corner by Qin Ran when he searched for firewood and branches, together with the flute and the dongxiao.There is always a basket, all packed in hand-woven bamboo baskets and put aside.It is convenient to hold and easy to restrain.

It's also really weird.The flames ignited by a pile of paper money falling inside the circle were not the usual bright yellow, but a faint blue light.After burning out, only the creaking sound of a machine came from the lobby.

"squeak"

"click"

None of the four said a word, they listened intently and held their breath until the sound finally died down.

The square dial in Ye Qiu's hand turned to the right at an angle of [-] degrees slowly and soundlessly, and then turned back to the original place by some mysterious error.

Yan Chen said: "What kind of situation is this?"

Qin Ran listened attentively to the sound of the machine, and threw a handful of paper money into the formation again, saying, "There's been some movement. Continue."

He looked at Yan Chen, Yan Chen said: "Don't look at me, I don't know how to tell stories."

Qin Ran whispered a few secret words in Yan Chen's ear, and after finishing speaking, he smiled at the extremely curious He Bo, and explained: "Some things cannot be clearly stated, because walls have ears..."

Uncle He didn't know if there were ears on the partition wall, but Mr. Qin's sinister smile was enough to scare ghosts.

"Trust me for now." Yan Chen glanced at the small window next to the golden Buddha statue, as if looking towards the far north through an outer wall.His stories are simple and uninteresting, occasionally pausing to organize his words.When opening again, or insert from the side, or start a new stove.The endless story that can be told by a stick of incense was dragged on for a full hour.

Qin Ran pieced together a story from these seemingly careless and varied details.

Calculating the timing of the story in detail, it was Qin Ran's second year of training in Tiandaozong.He remembered that there was snow in the sky that year, and it was the kind that was frighteningly cold in large swaths, as if setting a sad tone for the mass migration of refugees in the spring of the coming year.

The immortality of the war in the north prompted the refugees to migrate south in large numbers.Not too many families were destroyed, and there were not a few, but the organization was enough to cause headaches for state and county officials who were not rich in food.

Yan Chen, whose parents died early and was forced to leave his hometown, was particularly unfortunate.He followed his neighbors to the Jiangnan area, and lacked the care and support of his parents, so he lost with the large team begging for rations.

Later, after several transfers, Yan Chen, who was dressed in rags, fell into the mountain wormwood.

By chance, he, who was hungry and exhausted, met the same young Li Linlang here.

He always remembered Li Linlang's kindness in saving his life by offering meals, and he still couldn't forget it until he learned from Taoist Lian Yun as a doctor.In the end, it was still a step too late when he found the mountain wormwood again, and there was only a piece of devastated scorched earth in front of him. The village, old people, and past events were all destroyed by a fire and wiped out.

Later, Yan Chen, who was unwilling to reconcile and searched all over the place, finally learned that all the people in the village were killed, but Li Linlang survived.

After many inquiries, Yan Chen entered the Changping Marquis Mansion in Jingzhou not far away, and became an idle doctor in Qin Yuebai's camp.

However, after Li Linlang's family was destroyed, she became insane and couldn't recognize others, so naturally she couldn't recognize him either.During the days of cultivation in the Qin residence, anyone who dared to step forward would take a bite unreasonably.

Yan Chen and his master Lian Yun Taoist gave acupuncture to Li Linlang and sealed his memory, asking for benevolence, not asking him to remember the past, but hoping that he will live a safe life without illness or disaster.

Qin Ran glanced out the window, and seemed to inadvertently ask Yan Chen: "What happened next?"

Yan Chen rolled his eyes and said impatiently: "It's gone. Qin Zikai, don't push yourself!"

Qin Ran said: "Think carefully about what you still remember, for example, what did you see and hear when you returned to the mountain wormwood? Did you find anything out of the ordinary?"

Yan Chen sneered and said, "You know much better than I do. The stones inside and outside the Artemisia were not erected by General Qin? You and I know each other well, what do you want me to say?"

Qin Ran said: "That's different. Heaven knows, the earth knows, you know and I know, there are always others who don't know."

Speaking of others, Qin Ran pretended to glance out of the window casually.What he did was concealed, and He Bo and Yan Chen, who were fully absorbed by the content of the conversation, did not notice it. Only Ye Qiu followed Qin Ran's gaze and swept over and retracted.

He knew Qin Ran's nature of going his own way and not letting others praise or criticize him.Do things, consider what things never reveal the slightest wind to others.

Probably because I seldom take others into consideration, so I act in accordance with my nature, which is clearer and more thorough than blind eyes caught in love and hatred.

He, Ye Qiu, just doesn't like to interact with ordinary people, but Qin Ran is really unhuman when he is cold, and dares to stick a knife in his heart.Qin Ran was born to gallop on the battlefield without bloodshed.

Ye Qiu's right hand slowly stroked the position of the red rope on the wrist bone of his left hand. This rope is a pair with the red rope in Qin Ran's hand.But the secret about the red rope is only known to Taoist Lianyun.

In the mountain wormwood, Taoist Lianyun took the poison out for Qin Ran. When they were alone together, Taoist Lianyun scolded him with a stick and barbed under the lamp: "Does he know that you came to Shouchun from Tiandaozong all the way for him? It seems that you are stubborn and stubborn. You know that Qin Ran is born with a lonely face, it is difficult to have a confidant...

You tie him a sympathetic knot without saying a word, there is only one advantage, you will naturally know where he is.There are a lot of disadvantages, he hurts you, no matter how deep and painful you are hurt, he doesn't know.

In the future, I will bear the calamity for him and cannot be relieved for the rest of my life.So, do you regret it? "

Regret?

He never wanted to confide in anyone.

What does it have to do with him?Since he promised to go out, even if his bones turned into ashes, mountains and seas turned into fog, he would have no complaints or regrets. .

Yan Chen frowned to make it clear that he didn't want to talk too much, since the matter was too big, and the secrets involved were not enough for outsiders to know.Yan Chen waved his hands, and said proudly: "The story is over, it's your turn—"

Then he and Qin Ran had an unexplained exchange of eyes.

Yan Chen suddenly understood all seven senses, and immediately reined in the cliff and said: "Maybe I can talk about it again."

"It's a long story. It's about Old General Qin..."

He looked at it and added paper money to the formation, like giving a glance to Qin Ran who was fiddled with his one-acre fertile land.Qin Ran raised his eyes and nodded solemnly at him, so to speak.

Qin Yuebai was frank and thin, and someone like Yan Chen who didn't care about trifles could not help mentioning him with a bit of respect: "After the death of General Qin, there were some half-truths in the court. It’s inevitable that it will be out of shape when you go to the public, and you can talk about it. But Qin’s old general Yuan He Qinian did lead his army into Shouchun Shanhaoli privately. That is, Shanhaoli where the evil spirit is still lingering.”

"Some people say that the old general Qin led his army to kill the people because there were many bandits in the mountain wormwood, and some people said that he took credit for it and eliminated dissidents in the name of eliminating harm—because the mountain wormwood harbored a group of imperial and political enemies."

Either way, it's ridiculous to say it.He said it was for everyone to hear, but he actually meant something other than him and Qin Ran.The massacre in the seventh year of Yuanhe, Qin Zikai, who was still young in Tiandaozong, didn't know that he didn't stay out of it. In fact, even if Qin Ran was innocent, as the heir of the Qin family, he couldn't completely remove it.

So even if Li Linlang couldn't hate Qin Yuebai who was buried in the loess, even sitting on Qin Ran was not unreasonable.

After all, he not only heard but also saw the blood stained on Qin Ran's hands and the heads cut off by the sword during these years at the border.If the enemies at the eight-hundred-mile border are drawn together to hate, each spit can drown him.

It may not be true that Qin Yuebai did whatever he wanted to massacre, after all, none of the people who made the rumors saw it with their own eyes.Those who have never seen it before speak with certainty than anyone else, and the false ones are passed on ten to ten, and in the end they are also dizzy letters.

Yan Chen thinks highly of himself, unlike others, he is also ashamed of his credulity back then.So Yan Chen stopped and asked him talkatively: "Qin Zikai, what did you think when you heard those horrible rumors about your father back then? Why haven't I seen you cry and get angry?"

Qin Ran said: "Oh, because I'm very heartless. God please think hard about how to cut the NPC into pieces and kill them quickly? It's better to do more serious work when you have time."

Yan Chen said again: "You are not like this in the Northern Xinjiang military camp."

Qin Ran said, "What about me?"
