Chapter 42
this moment
The two forces in the house are fighting against each other.
On You Ran’s left is the one-eyed Han Sheng teacher, and on her right is the serious-looking housekeeper Aunt Dai.
“I think so.”
Han Sheng pondered for a moment, then said with a smile with an unlit cigarette in his mouth.
Aunt Dai snorted, noncommittal.
“You Ran has grown up, and she has inherited all my advantages perfectly, not to mention that there is no danger in going to a dance party.” Han Sheng’s tone was frivolous, but he still fought with Aunt Dai seriously. negotiating.
You Ran listened to the teacher helping him speak, and looked at Han Sheng gratefully.
Han Sheng gestured to the cigarette case he was about to empty with his eyes.
(When you come back, remember to buy Baojiashi brand pine nuts flavored cigarettes for the teacher.)
You Ran nodded very obediently, and then she just had to talk to Aunt Dai.
“The master said that you should be obedient. She will never want you to appear recklessly at that dance that shouldn’t have you, You Ran.” Aunt Dai was still unmoved, she didn’t want to appear. any unexpected state of affairs.
In Yin Sili’s dance, there were famous families and business tycoons from all walks of life, but most importantly, those people were all blood clans.
Letting a human enter into the Vortex Vortex without anyone protecting it is simply a life-threatening act.
“Aunt Dai, I always wear the ring that the lord gave me. You can’t detect my breath.” You Ran saw that Aunt Dai still disagreed, so she walked softly to Aunt Dai’s side, trying to use the ring. Intimacy such as rubbing her shoulders to get Aunt Dai to agree to her this time.
Aunt Dai frowned. Over the years, she had already regarded this human kid as a part of the mansion, even more than that, she had watched You Ran grow up a little bit.
This child has indeed grown a lot. It seems that every time he encounters a difficult situation, he can face it. He always treats pain with a calm face, even more so than children of other blood clans and even adults. Mature, but still very innocent at heart.
For example, even if you are almost an adult, you still occasionally act like a little clingy to you.
“Don’t be coquettish, it’s useless to me.”
Aunt Dai allowed You Ran to rub her shoulders, but… she didn’t agree.
“Aunt Dai, don’t be like this, You Ran wants to meet the adults earlier, besides, everyone is wearing a mask, no one will see me, I will hide myself strictly, and I will never show anything. Aunt Dai, my good Aunt Dai…”
You Ran bit her lip, and her face was about to burst into tears. She shook Aunt Dai’s back, a woman who was obviously taller than Aunt Dai. than her.
Who made her the mascot of the mansion since she was a child?
“How do you know it’s a masquerade.” Aunt Dai squinted, staring at Xiao Youran’s innocent face.
You Ran rolled his black eyes with a smile, and whispered, “I just called and asked.”
“You are in the name of the Mu Mansion.” Aunt Dai can guess without thinking about it, and she will spit out a mouthful of old blood.
You Ran continued to rub Aunt Dai’s shoulders and said softly, “That’s right, but I’m just asking. The people in Yin Guigong’s mansion are very kind and they all told me.”
“Can you guarantee that you will come back just by taking a peek at the master at the dance?” Aunt Dai raised her eyebrows and looked at the little guy in disbelief.
You Ran nodded immediately and assured, “I will definitely take a peek at the adults and come back.”
Aunt Dai looked at You Ran’s funny look with her hands raised and swore, and she didn’t know where You Ran learned this trick from. In short, she coaxed Aunt Dai to agree.
“Obviously, the master will be back the day after tomorrow. She has to go ahead of time. This child is really worrying.” Aunt Dai said in broken thoughts.
Han Sheng shrugged. He was very happy for his little Youran to embark on the journey of chasing love. Besides, even if he stopped this time, it is estimated that this little clever ghost would try his best and give his perseverance to take the initiative to see him. adults.
He just agreed to come back and bring cigarettes for himself, which was totally worth it.
***
approaching night
In the easternmost room of the mansion, a figure was busy.
She was standing in front of the mirror and gesturing at the few skirts that she could count on her fingers.
You Ran held a pure white dress or an all-black dress and put it on her chest. A hint of embarrassment flashed in her bright eyes. These dresses were all from the past. This year, she has grown taller, and the skirt that originally reached the ground can only reach her knees, and the whole is a little tight.
During this time, she was wearing clothes that were easy to move, for hunting, for training, and how to do it concisely.
Therefore, in her wardrobe, there is no dress suitable for going to the prom, let alone a dress.
You Ran looked at herself in the mirror. If she was wearing casual clothes, it would be very awkward.
So she took off her black hair again, and her expression was a little sad. Could it be that she could only look at the adults from a distance.
“Boom boom boom-”
With the knock on the door, it was Aunt Dai, who was quite strict in the morning, who pushed the door in.
You Ran was startled, could it be that Aunt Dai did not agree with her going?
“It’s so late and I haven’t slept yet.” Aunt Dai asked this little thing in a cold voice, seeing the old dresses on the bed, sure enough, no matter what they looked like, they were all little things.
“Aunt Dai…” You Ran turned around and called out respectfully.
Aunt Dai approached her, looked at the other party wearing a dress that was obviously one size smaller, held back her smile, and then took out the golden handbag she was carrying.
“It’s your coming of age ceremony in three days. This is a coming of age gift for you. Maybe you need it.”
You Ran looked at the heavy handbag in Aunt Dai’s hand, and her eyes filled with surprise. She looked and looked, and she was sure that it was for herself, so she took the gift from the other party, and she was surprised when she opened it. A lilac long dress.
“Aunt Dai!” You Ran was a little moved and speechless.
She was holding this long dress that seemed to be heavy craftsmanship, with beaded embellishments on it, which looked low-key and good, very gentle and beautiful, and even a little playful.
“You are also a member of the Mu Mansion. Even if you sneak out, you can’t lose face of the mansion. No matter where you go, you must be decent.” Aunt Dai educated You Ran with a straight face, but she still hugged him peacefully. I cut my hair to make it easier for You Ran to put it on.
Obviously, after wearing this dress, Aunt Dai’s immediate feeling was that this dress designed by Kang Shen was tailor-made for You Ran.
That night, You Ran fell asleep holding this new dress.
In the dream, she saw the adults, and the adults praised her that she was dressed beautifully.
They were so close to each other that she could even touch the cold body of the grown-up.
It was a sweet and shy dream, so before dawn the next day, she got up and set off with a blushing face, leaving a note and carrying some things she needed, the most important thing was the long dress, Nothing else matters.
What’s more, Aunt Dai and the rest of the mansion were worried about her safety, installed a positioning system on her, and asked her to carry communication equipment with her.
In short, I am afraid that she will get lost!
God knows that she has been to the Forest of Black Mist thousands of times by herself.
You Ran raised the emergency device at his wrist, which was a small iron bead clasped by a red rope.
It looks quite ordinary, but it can enter the communication system at any time and get connected with the mansion.
for example-
“Little devil, remember to bring me a pine nut flavored cigarette when you come back.”
“Understood, teacher.”
You Ran’s only phone call with the mansion before getting into the car was the same. The teacher only knew to bring cigarettes. As for worrying about each other’s safety, they didn’t seem to have such a warm moment.
By the way, along the way, she met an old woman who sold masks. Those masks were painted with strange and glamorous gods or animals from ancient gods. Especially when she thought of Yin Guigong’s masquerade, she was afraid. At that time, there was an emergency and I didn’t have a mask, so I simply bought a mask.
Shuttle through the human city, all the way to the train station.
The scenery here has long been different from the old times a few years ago. The newly appointed human leader has opened up this area and created an era passage that can connect with the wealthy area.
Of course, there are still places where monuments remain.
For example, the hanging street lamp of the saint statue.
It is also such a season, winter, when it is snowy, desolate and cold.
She was waiting for her mother under the street lamp, and when she was almost dying, she was dragged by a group of people at will, one **** and then another hell.
Then the adults came out, wearing a black coat, she didn’t remember what the adults said to those people, she only remembered that the adults said—
“Bring back to the mansion”
These four words made her remember clearly.
What if she didn’t meet an adult that day?
Thinking of this, You Ran just smiled and shook her head, her cold eyes lit up, she stretched out her hand to take the small snowflakes falling from the sky.
“It’s so quiet when it’s snowing. I really want to hear the voice of adults soon.”
She silently got on the train to Youge District and sat quietly in a corner.
Originally, Aunt Dai wanted to send a vehicle from the mansion to take her to the Youge area in the North District where Yin Sili was located, but she tried her best to go alone.
Because she wants to try to go to the adults alone, even if it is thousands of rivers and mountains, she is not afraid.
After all, Teacher Han Sheng once told her that although she was still very young, she was still stable in her work and was a very reliable child. In the future, her master would be protected by her, and he would be relieved.
Yes, she has been running towards that goal.
In the future, she will definitely say to the adults with confidence, “You can rest assured that I am here.”
If there is one more word that can fall from the bottom of my heart, it is…
You Ran restrained his inappropriate thoughts, leaned his head beside the car window, and looked out the window quietly.
Among the people who came and went, from time to time some people looked at the woman who was traveling alone.
The other party brought a very simple thing, a bag, and the bag should not be guessed to be clothes or the like.
She wears simple clothes, no makeup on her face, and a light expression on her face, but this does not affect her unique temperament at all.
She is beautiful, a great beauty.
This is so certain in the hearts of other customers in the train.
Unfortunately, no one wanted to approach him.
After all, the other party seemed to have guessed the mind of the fellow car, and deliberately put the ghost fox mask with a strange and evil spirit on his face, blocking all the visiting eyes from Wai Chuan.
Afterwards, there seemed to be some disappointed sighs in the carriage.
It was already five o’clock in the afternoon when the train reached the secluded area.
The weather also turned the wind that was still a little warm into a biting cold, and it seemed to get colder as it went inside.
The heating in the train is no longer working, and all that blows out is the coolness of ice slag.
You Ran opened his eyes and looked around. There were not so many crowds in the carriage. The train was almost empty at the previous branch station. The secluded district was located in the north, and the severe cold would cause many people living in warm areas to suffer. Not that temperature, so only the first train will have a stop.
So this is why You Ran catches the first train early.
You Ran was ready to get off when the train stopped.
When the conductor saw the single young woman, he stepped forward a little worriedly and asked, “Miss, do you really want to get off at this station?”
“Yes.” You Ran nodded, picked up the bag beside him and was about to leave.
“This area is far from the market. If your family is not here, you’d better not get off the train. There are snow wolves in the mountains here.” The conductor reminded the woman kindly. , I hope the other party is best to contact the family before leaving.
You Ran could hear the other party’s concerns, she sincerely expressed her gratitude, she was not afraid of Xuelang.
“Why don’t you contact your family.”
You Ran just smiled and stepped off the train. She looked at the landmark light spot displayed on her wrist.
In the deepest part of the forest.
She raised her lips slightly, thinking of the conductor’s kindness in her heart, she would not contact that person because she wanted to surprise or frighten him.
Since she got off the train, countless dark green eyes followed her.
That’s the look of a predator.
The conductor said that there are snow wolves here, but he was only half right, there are wolves, but the physique is several times stronger than the snow wolves.
“I’m in a hurry, so don’t get in my way, okay.”
Her voice was very soft, and she seemed too insignificant in this cold wind.
But such a voice that was cut into pieces by the cold wind completely disappeared into the mind of the leading cynic.
The extremely ferocious Qilang seemed to be forcibly suppressed by the voice, and instantly became without killing intent. The two forelimbs slowly sank, showing a prostrate attitude of absolute surrender, followed by the others. The same is true of the wolves, all retreating into the darkness.
