"Work at sunset and rest at sunrise?" Zhou Wensheng felt that his IQ had been insulted.
The last time this feeling occurred was in Gu Nanfeng's class.
"Yes," Lu Xiaohan nodded, "It is because of this kind of work and rest habits that they can hide themselves well in the world."
"Then how did you know?" Seeing that Lu Xiaohan said he had a nose and eyes, Zhou Wensheng couldn't help but calm down and want to find out.
"Many years ago," Lu Xiaohan did not answer Zhou Wensheng's question, but instead began to tell a story.
"Several mountaineering enthusiasts met to conquer a high mountain in the Gobi Desert. Unexpectedly, just when they were about to reach the foot of the target mountain, a sudden strong wind blew up, causing rocks and sand to fly. Their leader quickly found a huge boulder and said hello Let everyone take shelter from the wind and sand behind the boulder."
"But the wind was getting stronger and stronger, with no sign of stopping or abating, and the sky was gradually getting darker due to the thrown up sand and rocks and the setting sun. The team leader had no choice but to order everyone to rest on the spot. Let’s wait until dawn the next day.”
"But there happened to be one person who refused to listen to dissuasion and insisted on going his own way. Taking advantage of the wind to weaken slightly, he left the team alone with his bag and walked into the night without looking back."
"Perhaps it was the blessing of the gods. After he braved the strong wind and walked more than a hundred meters in the direction of his destination with intuition, everything returned to calm. It was as if the strong wind just now was an illusion. Just when he was surprised by the magic of nature When he arrived, he found that he was standing at the foot of a mountain."
"Did he go up the mountain?" Zhou Wensheng put out the burning cigarette butt in the ashtray and couldn't help but interrupt Lu Xiaohan's story.
"Yes, because the mountain was so beautiful under the moonlight, and everywhere he looked looked silver, so he climbed up the mountain desperately."
"But when he climbed halfway up the mountain, a deafening roar suddenly sounded in his ears. With the huge sound, the whole mountain seemed to be shaking, and even the moonlight above his head gradually dimmed. In panic, He looked up and realized that not far from the top of the mountain, the moon the size of a millstone was getting darker little by little."
"Lunar eclipse." Zhou Wensheng recalled the video that Yu Duzhou showed them.
"Yes, lunar eclipse." Zhou Wensheng's words made Lu Xiaohan's eyes show a hint of approval, "The man originally thought that after the moon was completely blocked, he would be forced to stop climbing because of the loss of light source, but the scene in front of him But he had to marvel again at the miraculous craftsmanship of nature. Not only did the mountain he was on not become dark due to the loss of moonlight, but there were countless silver-white lights shining from the cracks in large and small stones. These lights The road under his feet was illuminated more clearly. At the same time, a faint song floated down from the top of the mountain."
"Singing?" Zhou Wensheng lit another cigarette.
"Yes, he is also very curious." Lu Xiaohan glanced at Zhou Wensheng and continued, "The strong curiosity prompted him to speed up his pace, and at the same time he tried his best to hide his figure. As he got closer and closer to the top of the mountain , the singing became clearer and clearer, and the strange singing was also mixed with a girl’s cry.”
"The sound on the top of the mountain made him speed up his pace, and the moment he reached the top of the mountain, he saw a scene that changed his life." Lu Xiaohan paused and continued, "In the center of the top of the mountain, there was a huge The lake was illuminated by the light from under the water, like a pool of mercury, shining with silver light. Around the lake, there were people holding torches. Their skin was as white as snow, and their eyes exuded a faint glow. A green light. He saw these people pushing a girl onto a simple bamboo raft. They ignored the girl's pleas and brutally tied the girl to the bamboo raft. Then they pushed hard and the bamboo raft fell. The raft swayed and drifted toward the center of the lake."
"When the bamboo raft floated to the center of the lake, the mercury-like lake water began to rotate faster and faster, and soon a bottomless whirlpool was formed in the center of the lake. At this time, the bamboo raft looked like a ruined The dead leaves were allowed to be driven by the current, sinking deeper and deeper into the whirlpool. The cry of the girl tied to the bamboo raft became more and more sad and desperate, but the songs of the people on the shore became more and more enthusiastic and cheerful. Just now The bamboo raft was about to be swallowed by the whirlpool, and he finally tied the knot while hiding in the dark. He tied one end of the rope to a big rock next to him, and tied the other end to his waist. He quickly rushed forward and took advantage of the whirlpool. Unprepared, he jumped into the lake with a plop."
"The huge attraction of the vortex quickly sucked him towards the center of the lake. Everything happened too suddenly. Just when he grabbed the girl, the singing on the shore stopped abruptly. The water in the lake dropped rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, a bottomless lake turned into a bottomless pit.”
"As the lake disappeared, the buoyancy supporting them also disappeared, and the two fell heavily on the wall of the pit. When he woke up again, he found himself lying in a cave, with the girl sitting next to him, a pair of The dark eyes looked at him motionless."
"What's your name?" he asked the girl. The girl looked at his mouth curiously and said nothing. Can I take you home? He continued to try to communicate with the girl, but the girl still didn't say a word. He After thinking about it, he gestured and said to the girl, "Let's rest here for a day. If you want to follow me, you can follow me. If you don't want to follow me, you can go wherever you want." I don’t know if the girl understood it, but after they rested in the cave for a day, he went down the mountain. The girl followed behind him, never leaving."
"Later, he took the girl with him wherever he went, talking and chatting with her, taking her to dances and shopping malls. A year later, the girl was able to communicate with him normally. Later, they got married."
Lu Xiaohan seemed to be tired, so she stopped talking and looked at Zhou Wensheng.
"Why do you know so clearly?" Seeing Lu Xiaohan stop telling, Zhou Wensheng took a deep breath of cigarette and asked with a frown.
Lu Xiaohan's narration was not wonderful, but it was precisely such a plain narration that made Zhou Wensheng and the other three shudder.
"This mountaineering enthusiast who insisted on leaving the team is my grandfather, and the girl he saved is my grandmother." Lu Xiaohan looked at Zhou Wensheng with calm eyes.
After the words fell, Zhou Wensheng and the three of them were all stunned.
This was an answer Zhou Wensheng didn't expect.
He thought that Lu Xiaohan just made up a not-so-exciting story just to waste time with him.
He never expected that Lu Xiaohan was actually talking about his life experience.
But this is an interrogation, not a blind date. What does it mean to tell someone about his life experience without any reason?
"Does what you are talking about have anything to do with the case we want to investigate?" Zhou Wensheng asked, flicking the ashes of his cigarette.
"Don't worry. Listen to me and you will know whether it matters or not." Lu Xiaohan breathed a sigh of relief and continued.
"My maternal grandmother passed away three years after giving birth to my mother. The day of her death happened to be my mother's third birthday."
