Chapter 82: The Crazy Sister-Doting Demon
"You call me sister?"
Li Ran's voice was cold, and the murderous intent in her eyes remained undiminished, but the knife in her hand seemed to have become a little warmer.
He called her sister... Then, don't kill her!
In fact, she is also a soft-hearted person.
I thought of Gu Dali, who always called her sister, which sounded nice.
"I won't kill you, but you, stay away from me."
With a flick of his fingertips, blood splattered from the knife. The blade, which had just been stained with blood, was shiny as if it had been carefully wiped.
Li Ran put away her knife and turned to walk into the mountains. She didn't walk fast, but each step she took was filled with extreme pressure.
The small figure quickly blended into the starry and moonlit night, appearing cold and indifferent.
It seemed as if she had been alone since she was born. She was lonely in life and would be lonely in death.
"Sister, wait for me."
Gu Xianghe's heart trembled, and an indescribable heartache spread throughout his body. He didn't care that the wound on his arm was still bleeding, and strode after him, "Sister, I'm your brother. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to kill you. I just accepted the mission. It's my fault. Sister, can you forgive me? Sister, what made you think of coming to Wailing Mountain? You remember, right?"
Gu Xianghe followed Li Ran excitedly and nervously, like a furry animal whose fangs were suddenly pulled out. He wished his sister would call him brother right now.
Li Ran: ...
Do you regret it? How about killing him now?
"You're noisy."
Finally stopping, Li Ran raised her little face and looked at him coldly.
Those beautiful eyebrows and eyes don't match her sallow face, but Gu Xianghe thinks his sister is the most beautiful girl in the world.
But his sister was angry, and he found out.
He covered his mouth with his hand and made a zippering motion to indicate that he would stop talking.
"Why is it called Wailing Mountain? It's not a good name."
From the perspective of Feng Shui, it is very bad.
Gu Xianghe didn't understand all this, but since his sister didn't let him speak, he didn't dare to speak. Li Ran took two steps and found that Gu Xianghe's nagging voice was no longer in his ears, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
"I'm asking you a question!"
She stopped and looked back at him. Gu Xianghe blinked: Did my sister let him speak?
He is a good brother and has to listen to his sister.
He took his hand away from his mouth and said quickly, "I don't know why it's called Wailing Mountain. It's the name passed down from our ancestors."
After saying that, he covered his mouth again.
If he doesn't cover it up, he won't be able to help but want to say it, and then his sister will hate him.
"The old ancestor... didn't have very good taste."
Otherwise, why would the Gu family be so dwindling in numbers and on the verge of extinction?
Li Ran turned around and continued walking into the dark mountains, with Gu Xianghe following closely behind.
However, there are also advantages to him following. If Li Ran were alone, there might be poisonous insects, snakes and ants on the road, but now Gu Xianghe is following, and the road is familiar, so it is quite safe.
"Just cross this mountain and you'll be there."
She was able to speak again. Gu Xianghe took his hand off his mouth and led her into a secret door in the middle of the mountains.
After entering the secret door, there is a very wide passage, which runs across the middle of the mountains.
Li Ran has lived for nineteen years and has been traveling to Continent M for so many years, so he can be considered knowledgeable.
But looking at the square inside the mountain that could accommodate thousands of people, he remained silent.
In particular, this square was not formed recently.
Inside the cave, there are stone tables and chairs, carved murals on the walls, excavated lounges... and even caves.
And, hot spring pool.
"If this place were to be unveiled, it would surely cause a sensation. Given your country's tourism boom, it would soon become a tourist mecca, perhaps even a historical site, perhaps even receiving national protection."
Li Ran stopped and looked around: It was more like a large natural shelter than a large square.
Thinking of several major events in history, Li Ran had an idea in his mind.
This Gu family probably has a history of thousands of years.
"Let's go!"
She groaned softly, kicking up a rock with the wrong weight.
"Wait a moment."
Calling Gu Xianghe, Li Ran bent down to pick up the stone and looked at it carefully. "It looks like... ore."
"It's ore, but the quality of this ore is not good, and people in our tribe don't like to pick it up. If you like it, there are a lot of them in this mountain, and they all belong to us."
Gu Xianghe quickly said that his sister had finally found something she liked and she had to satisfy her.
Li Ran: ...
It’s no secret that she actually likes this kind of brainless spoiled brother Meibao.
Nodding: "I'll take one first."
After a pause, he asked, "You still don't know what to call me?"
"Ah, sister asked me my name! Actually, we are not siblings. You can call me by my name, or you can call me cousin. My name is Gu Xianghe, and I know Gu Lingrui, the owner of the Xingxing Auction Hall."
He said so much in one breath, and he wished he could sell all his property.
Li Ran: ...
He's a nice guy, just a little... stupid.
"I didn't ask that many questions."
After collecting the ore and walking out of the passage, I found that the door was inlaid with gems and even night pearls.
Li Ran pinched the ore in his pocket and began to understand how the ancient tribe, which had existed for thousands of years, had survived to this day.
Very wealthy!
"Sister, can I ask if you remember anything? You've been missing for nineteen years, and our entire clan is eager for your return!"
Now that his mouth was free, Gu Xianghe couldn't help but ask again. Li Ran said, "If I really am your young patriarch, then I was still a baby nineteen years ago. What kind of memories do you think I should have?"
Gu Xianghe:!!
It seems... that's the case.
But that doesn't make sense. Everyone in their tribe is very smart and they all start to remember things at an early age. My younger sister should be even more capable, right?
After exiting the passage, the view suddenly became brighter, and even the air seemed different.
It was as if I had suddenly arrived in a fairyland from the turbid world, and even my body felt light.
This place has nothing to do with any dangerous place.
Li Ran stopped, half-closed his eyes, looked at the twinkling lights of the world below his feet, and something flashed through his mind.
But the thing had legs and ran very fast. Before she could catch it, the strange thing returned to the darkness again, as if it had never been there.
"Sister, there is a way down the mountain. This is your first time here, so go slowly."
Gu Xianghe reminded her and even wanted to pull her along. Li Ran lowered her eyes, looked at the winding mountain stairs under her feet, and said calmly, "I can see it."
Her pair of black eyes were extremely bright in the night.
This bit of night was as bright as day to her.
"Oh, okay, okay, the moon is bright tonight and I can see clearly." Gu Xianghe didn't dare to say anything else. His sister had a bad temper and was a little willful. She also thought he talked too much.
He will not disobey his sister.
"Grandpa Clan Leader, someone's coming in through the secret passage on the mountain. It's far away, and I don't know who it is. I'll go check it out."
The young man from the tribe rushed in to report, and then rushed out like a whirlwind. Gu Changtian's eyelids twitched violently: "Stinky boy, there are surveillance cameras on the mountain, don't you know to check the surveillance before going?!"
Why are you running around so late at night?
Sitting under the lamp, holding the photo of Li Ran sent back by Gu Lingrui in his hand, the more he looked at it, the more he felt: This is his own daughter!
Look at these eyebrows, look at these eyes, they are carved from the same mold as him!
