212 Yonghuai: I can't sleep at night
In this Douluo Continent, not everyone can celebrate the New Year in the palace like the nobles of Heaven Dou City, watch the latest trendy song and dance performances, and drink and feast with friends.
It is also Chinese New Year's Eve, many people have a home and cannot go back, and some people even do not have a home.
In the slums of Heaven Dou City, several orphans fight to grab a bowl of dog rice.
The beggars on the roadside huddled in the corners of the stables, enduring the foul smell of horse manure just because it was sheltered from the cold wind.
In the civilian area west of the city, a small trader marries his beloved woman through the New Year's lottery, and he himself is busy socializing in the front hall, but he doesn't know that his new wife is fighting with his good brother in the backyard for 300 rounds.
A gust of cold wind came from the north, blowing down the ribbons hanging high in the Heaven Dou Palace, and blowing the flag of the third squad of the Imperial City Guards into a hunting sound.
Lu Renjia, the captain of the third squad of the Guardian Army and also a soul master at the Soul Sect level, stood in the cold wind, looking back at the brightly lit inner city of the Imperial City in the distance from time to time, and there was envy in his eyes.
The cold wind was blocked by the mountains in the southern part of Sili Prefecture, and turned eastward, blowing into the withered Sunset Forest.
Near the eyes of ice and fire, Dugu Yan had just absorbed the fourth soul ring. Her grandfather, Dugu Bo, stroked his granddaughter's hair with relief, and suddenly had a palpitation and began to feel chest tightness and shortness of breath.
It turned out that he had been accompanied by poison for many years, and the toxin had invaded the waste of the heart, which had already had a serious impact on Dugu Bo.
The area on the northeast side of the Great Sunset Forest, near the area of the Duchy of Tsarist Russia.
The Oneiroi machine with the Black Demon Martial Spirit is sitting on a small dirt slope in the wind at the moment, condescending, guarding the surroundings.
On the sheltered side of the small dirt slope, Ye Lingling sat upright on the ground, with a middle-aged woman and a soul beast that had just died beside him.
Under the traction of Ye Lingling's soul power, the purple soul ring that rose from the soul beast's body gradually fell on top of Ye Lingling's head.
She began the process of absorbing the soul ring.
Three thousand miles south from the residence of the Immortal Sect was the eastern edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Tonight, a team of soul masters from the Blue Electric Overlord Sect came here. The leader is none other than Yu Tianheng of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy!
"Soul beasts don't have many activities at night, let's hurry up and hurry, we must pass through the outer ring area of the Star Dou Great Forest before dawn."
Under the command of Yu Tianheng, a team of soul masters entered the forest in an extremely orderly manner.
Since the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect was very far away from Heaven Dou City, within the territory of the Star Luo Empire, close to the coastline in the east, Yu Tianheng had just touched the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest until tonight, and began to hunt souls with the assistance of his clansmen.
Outside Rushing City, also near the eastern coastline, many residents come to the pier to release river lanterns to the Trident River, where the water flows gently in winter.
Meng is still one of the people who put the river lanterns.
The lanterns are lotus-shaped, mainly cherry pink and bright yellow, and the candles are lit and then float on the surface of the river, rising and falling with the waves.
It is said that each lantern represents a wish.
After Meng still threw the river lantern into the water, a pair of big chestnut eyes stared at the flickering candle flame and began to think seriously.
…… What do you want to make?
At this moment, the man's voice and smile resurfaced in Meng Yi's mind.
"I hope to be with Yuntian, he loves me, and I love him."
She looked up at the starry sky and silently made a wish in her heart.
Meng is still a woman who cares about Su Yuntian, but she is not the only one who likes him.
Also within the territory of the Heaven Dou Empire, not far from Heaven Dou City, and located on the edge of Sili Prefecture, the Blazing Academy was deserted at this time.
The classmates all went home for the holidays, and only a few stayed in the college, such as Huo Wushuang, who was at home in the college and the dean's own son.
Late at night, Huo Wushuang shuttled through the academy, shouting "Fire Dance" and "Fire Dance" as he ran.
He searched for more than an hour, and finally found his sister in the "Ice and Fire Heavens" in the mimic cultivation area.
"Huo Wu, what are you doing here, go home for the New Year."
For his brother's call, Huo Wu seemed to be lacking in interest, very lazily raised his arms high, stretched his waist widely, and said: "Isn't there more than two hours before the New Year, what are you anxious about." ”
With that, she stood up from the fountain and regained the demeanor of the heroic, eldest sister of the Blazing Academy.
When leaving the mimic cultivation area, Huo Wushuang asked, "Are you thinking about Gilgamesh again?" ”
Without hesitation, Fire Dance denied, "No." ”
Huo Wushuang smiled: "If you're not thinking about Gilgamesh, then you must be thinking about Su Yuntian." ”
This time, Huo Wu rolled her eyes: "How can you do this?" Why don't you have a discussion? ”
As he spoke, Huo Wu took out a strange-shaped sword burning with flames from the soul guide, and the four soul rings of two yellow and two purple under his feet lit up one after another.
Huo Wushuang hurriedly ran away.
"I can't beat you, I slipped away."
Now, Huo Wu is already a four-ring soul sect, and there is the "Immortal Blade" left to her by Su Yuntian, and her combat power is called fierce.
Although Huo Wushuang's martial soul is good, regardless of soul power and soul skills, he is slightly lacking in all aspects compared to Huo Wu, and he doesn't dare to make a heavy hand, except for running away quickly, what else can he do.
Fire Dance followed, walking slowly, and suddenly stopped, looking up at the same bright starry sky.
Heaven Dou City under the same starry sky, at this time, there was also a pair of eyes looking up at the sky.
It was undoubtedly a pair of beautiful eyes, but what was strange was that even though it was night, she still covered her face with a black scarf, as if she didn't want people to see the beautiful figure under the mask.
"Well, it's probably not coming."
She sighed softly and sat down in the atrium of the courtyard, a fluctuation of soul power surged up on her body, and a thirteen-string sword-style piano was held in her hand.
She is a luthier and a soul master.
Her name is Lin Mengchai.
Lin Mengchai was entrusted by Su Yuntian to follow Ye Lingling and the Emperor Dou team to travel to the mainland, and saw many talented young talents along the way, and also witnessed the growth of the Emperor Dou team and Ye Lingling in the past six months, which made Lin Mengchai benefit a lot.
If the only drawback is probably that I haven't seen Su Yuntian for several months.
On the way back to Heaven Dou City from Soto City, Lin Mengchai once fantasized about returning to his previous life, and he still went to be the shadow of Su Yuntian, silently following him and accompanying him through the long years.
It's just that Su Yuntian acted out of his mind, and suddenly ran away without a shadow.
Tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, Lin Mengchai sleeps alone in the villa in the east of the city, except for the maid in the mansion, there are no friends, no him.
She lay down for half the night, but she tossed and turned, and couldn't sleep, so she simply got up and went to the courtyard to play the piano.
When the crisp and melodious sound of the piano sounded, Lin Mengchai gradually devoted himself to the focused performance.
I can't sleep at night, sit up and play the piano.
The thin curtain shows the bright moon, and the breeze blows me.
The outfield of the Lone Hong, the birds singing in the north forest.
What will you see when you wander? Worry and sadness.
