Shen Shizhen

Chapter 138 The Pendulum

Ji Chuan didn't know how long he and Ai Fan had been lying side by side on the bed, but he remembered that he seemed to have fallen asleep in a daze, and returned to that dream...

There were pure white feathers floating all over the darkness, but this time he didn't feel uncomfortable anymore, everything within his line of sight was clear, even the ends of the feathers curled and stretched in the air were distinct, Ji Chuan even felt that he was Light and floating, no resistance, no gravity.

The feathers fell on him one by one, and it felt itchy to slide across his face. This time, Ji Chuan felt that he should be able to see the person clearly, the person hidden behind the feathers, who repeatedly appeared in his dreams.

Just when Ji Chuan was about to push the feathers in front of him and take a step further, no one saw his voice first: "You are here..."

Ji Chuan was stunned for a moment, this was the first time he heard this person's voice, but it was very strange... because the voice didn't seem to come from his ears at all, it was more like coming from the bottom of his heart, Just hovering in my mind.

But the second reason is that Ji Chuan discovered that the person was speaking Chinese, and Ji Chuan completely overturned his previous guess about that person so smoothly and naturally. Could it be... a Chinese?

Ji Chuan felt that his body was gradually no longer under his control. He floated towards the back of the feathers bit by bit, and the feathers around him were brushed away before they touched him, as if there were some thin It's like covering yourself and wrapping yourself up.

Finally, through the layers of feathers, he could see the figure of the person floating in the air, which was exactly the same as the outline in his memory. There was a pair of huge wings on the back of the person, which were slowly unfolding bit by bit.

Ji Chuan remembered very clearly that the last time he was here, he was woken up by Ai Fan, so that he once again missed the opportunity to see the real face.

This time... Ji Chuan suddenly felt that he was wrapped in a warm current, and the warmth spread slowly along the fingertips along the veins to the whole body, and the already relaxed body became more comfortable, sweeping away the previous " Escape" exhaustion.

"Finally I see you..." The voice came again, and Ji Chuan even wondered if it was the same as he is now when Mi Li and Ai Fan talked in the super dimension.

Ji Chuan tried to speak, but found that his throat seemed to be stuck by something, and he couldn't make a sound no matter what.

The man said again: "Be careful..."

His voice was very gentle, Ji Chuan couldn't detect even the slightest bit of malice, and he did it almost subconsciously—"Didn't you meet me before?"

This is a wonderful feeling, every word seems to flow from the bottom of my heart, without any precautions.

"You can't see me...I naturally can't see you..."

Ji Chuan was walking very slowly, and up to now he could only vaguely see the man's calf.

The light climbed up from his calf little by little. It was a pair of slender and powerful feet. Connecting the veins with distinct roots to the toes was a loose white robe.

At first, Ji Chuan thought that this person with shoulder-length curly hair was a woman, but the feet in front of him obviously belonged to a man.

His voice echoed in Ji Chuan's heart, and Ji Chuan tentatively asked, "Who are you?"

The man seemed to be smiling, although Ji Chuan didn't make a sound, but Ji Chuan felt it, a joy surged from the bottom of his heart, and all the perceptions were so clear.

The man said, "Wait until you get closer... until I can see your face clearly..."

The white robe hung loosely on the man, Ji Chuan couldn't tell his age just by hearing the voice, he just thought it must be an adult male.

The light from an unknown source gradually illuminated the man's lower abdomen and chest, and Ji Chuan looked at him almost without blinking.

But to his surprise, that person had already surpassed the category of an adult male, it was an old man's face, and he was not Chinese.

"You're not Chinese..." Ji Chuan was startled by the white cloth covering the old man's eyes before he could finish his emotion, and he didn't realize how impolite he was until he asked: "Can't you see?"

But the old man didn't mind, his shoulder-length dark brown half curly hair made his whole body soft: "Yes..."

Looking at the outline of the old man's face exposed outside the white cloth, Ji Chuan always felt a little familiar, especially the high bridge of the nose: "Then... how can you see my face clearly..."

Ji Chuan was a little hesitant, he was very curious about the identity of the old man in front of him. As the intimacy in his heart gradually increased, Ji Chuan didn't understand where his desire to go forward and hug that person came from.

The old man seemed to sense Ji Chuan's confusion, and put on a kind smile on his face: "Come here..."

Ji Chuan felt that his actions were all involuntary, and as soon as the man raised his hand, he obediently passed by, and did not stop until he floated in front of the old man, and he slowly supported Ji Chuan's cheek with his hand that had not been let go.

Every ups and downs of Ji Chuan's face were presented in the palm of the old man's hands one by one. Ji Chuan subconsciously closed his eyes. These hands made him feel very warm, even with a sense of home that he had not seen for a long time...

Then he asked, "Who are you?"

The old man was still rubbing Ji Chuan's face with his hands, and the corners of his mouth were deeply curved, but he didn't answer the question immediately: "No wonder Ai Fan and Xiao Mo like you."

Ji Chuan was taken aback, he was not sure if his understanding was correct.

Immediately afterwards, the old man took out something the size of a coin from nowhere and stuffed it into Ji Chuan's hand. Before Ji Chuan had time to open his eyes to see what he was holding, he heard him say, "Give this to Ai Fan."

Ji Chuan still wanted to say something, but a feeling of drowning suddenly surged up, and the feeling of oppression in his heart made him almost out of breath.

The words of the old man also seemed to be soaked in water, gradually becoming blurred and distant...

"Ji Chuan? Ji Chuan!"

When Ji Chuan opened his eyes, he saw the outline of Ai Fan's face. For a moment, Ji Chuan thought that he hadn't woken up and was still in that dream, and the person in front of him was still the old man.

"Ji Chuan?" Ai Fan's face was full of worry.

Ji Chuan stared blankly at Ai Fan's face for a long time before he recognized who the person in front of him was. It took almost an instant for Ji Chuan to understand: "I just...maybe I saw..."

Before they could finish speaking, they were interrupted by a "knock on the door" suddenly, and both of them were shocked.

After Ji Chuan got up, he realized that he had fallen asleep on the bed. He and Ai Fan looked at each other, and they both focused their eyes on the door of the room.

Sure enough, there was a second "knock on the door" after a while, but this time the two of them understood that the "knock on the door" didn't come from the door at all——Ai Fan and Ji Chuan moved their eyes to the door. On the wall opposite the bed.

The two found hesitation in each other's eyes. If I remember correctly, the left side of this room happened to be where the corridor was disconnected. Logically speaking, there should be no room and no one would knock on it.

but now……

"咚咚-"

Ji Chuan felt that he even heard a bit of leisure from the third knock on the wall?

In China, everyone is used to knocking three times, but in France, everyone usually only knocks twice.

The two of them were staring at the wall that should not have been knocked on the bed now, but the fourth sound did not sound according to the previous rhythm, and was replaced by a change in the wall.

Sitting on the bed, Ji Chuan watched helplessly as the wall was pushed open from the inside to the outside, his eyes widened immediately, and he shook Ai Fan in disbelief.

Ai Fan felt a familiar aura from behind that wall, very familiar...

"It's really... long time no see." Yule greeted the two as he came out of the wall.

Ji Chuan and Ai Fan: "..."

Although I don't know why, it seems that it is not surprising to see Yule here, and I always feel that it is not surprising that Yule appears everywhere.

Seeing that the two of them didn't react at all, Yuer's face was full of disappointment: "Why didn't you show any reaction at all, at least surprised or delighted?"

The two stared at him for a while, and again ignored Yule's question.

Ai Fan: "Why do you keep knocking when you can come in by yourself?"

Ji Chuan: "Are you doing shady things here?"

"You can't say it so harshly. It was pure coincidence that the project built by their laboratory fell into my hands. It was pure coincidence." Yule was wearing a white coat, putting his hands in his pockets and shrugging. "I knocked for your sake. What if I suddenly came in because of what you were doing, that would be bad."

I can't say why, but when I saw Yuer Jichuan's long-sleeping taunting skills, I was reawakened: "You don't see enough?"

Evan: "..."

Ai Fan felt that Ji Chuan and Yuer really had to be spared in the future.

Ai Ji and the two who successfully escaped followed Yuer in the passageway full of forks like an underground palace. Ji Chuan disliked the oil lamp that Yuer was carrying to illuminate the road: "If you have money to build a laboratory, you can't buy it." flashlight?"

"You can't illuminate the way with a flashlight." Yule looked back at him mysteriously, "Artificial light doesn't work here."

Ji Chuan murmured to himself, what he said was miraculous.

But Yuer seemed to have heard Ji Chuan's mental activities, and his eyebrows and eyes were crooked: "It's so amazing, black technology, if you want to praise me, I will praise it, how uncomfortable it is to hold back."

Ji Chuan: "..."

Ai Fan resisted the urge to support his forehead and pulled Ji Chuan into his arms, hoping that he would stay away from Yuer, the farther the better, and it would be best not to see him again after leaving here.

In fact, Ai Fan's heart has been turned away since he knew that Yule built this laboratory. He has never known Yule's real age, and Yule is also completely immune to his abilities like Ji Chuan.

"How could this base be built by you." Ai Fan tentatively said, "Mount Fowler has been here for many years. This experimental project probably started from my grandfather's generation."

Yuer waved his hand without turning his head and said: "How is it impossible, don't try to set my age, I won't tell you."

About Yuer's age and origin is almost a lingering doubt in everyone's mind, Ji Chuan said: "You should know Ai Fan's grandfather."

Yuel shrugged: "I didn't say I didn't know him."

Ai Fan smiled: "No wonder I have been refusing to say my age, old man."

The last three words made Yuer stop, and almost poked the oil lamp in his hand on Ivan: "This project was started very early, so it needs to be refurbished and repaired. I finally got the opportunity to renovate." It can't be the reason why you say I'm old."

For a moment, Ai Ji and Ai Ji both had a question on their minds: Why does Yule care so much about age?

Ji Chuan thoughtfully looked at Yuer whose reaction was far beyond the two people's expectations, and there were a few ripples in his heart. Ji Chuan still kept the silver coin and did not find a chance to give it to Ai Fan.
