Chapter Sixty-Six: From Two Living!
Old man Luo spread his hands, and the white paper lantern in his hand was almost thrown to the ground.
In order to avoid the lightning, I began to take orders and do business, helping those customers to do things without conscience, but all the money I earned was used to develop anti-lightning devices to protect myself. ”
As he spoke, he uncovered his coat, revealing a metal mesh soft armor that looked like a cutting-edge technological product in the world, and a small round piece of metal on his chest.
"What's that?" I asked, pointing to the piece of metal.
Old man Luo said: "The memory that absorbs electric energy, those lightning strikes me, although it is not fatal, but it really hurts......"
For some reason, this old man used to be a little weird in my heart, but looking at his current expression, I actually felt that he was inexplicably a little cute.
A strange old man who is afraid of lightning and dodges lightning, but can't escape from lightning, hahaha!
Ye Dingxi didn't seem to have mastered this secret, and he sounded a little surprised.
"Even if it can absorb lightning, with the current level of technology, this protective suit can't withstand lightning at all, right?"
Old man Luo sighed.
"If you slash it, you'll be ruined, but if you're lucky, and the lightning strikes only one bit, I won't fall. ”
On the way back, because Old Man Luo kept telling about the strange experience of being struck by lightning, I listened with relish, and before I knew it, I had come to the end of the Lechuan River with them.
At this moment, the tide receded, and the already dark sky was covered with black mist, and the southwest wind blew my heart slightly cold.
"Why is it colder tonight than usual, what season is it in the world?" I asked casually.
Before anyone could answer, a figure pushed the door out of my courtyard.
"East, you're back?"
"Sister Zhen......"
I said hello and looked around again, but luckily the candlelight in the lantern hadn't been extinguished.
Sister Zhen's white dress is fluttering, her slender eyebrows are very light, she is standing quietly, and she exudes an elegant fragrance like a lotus flower.
"Where have you been? I haven't seen you back for a long time. Sister Zhen asked.
I took two steps forward and said with a smile, "My cat...... Just came back and ran out again. ”
"Really?"
Sister Zhen's gaze swept behind me, and she vaguely felt a little strange.
"Why is there a breath of the living?"
"Yes, it's my cat, right?" I looked at my nose and nose and said, "My cat was brought back from the Yang Realm by Lao Cui, and it is not a dead thing, so it has life and should ...... He's nearby. ”
Sister Zhen frowned slightly: "No, the two strands of interest are not the same, they are from two living people!"
In the end, it is the veteran high-level of the underworld, we swaggered all the way to the underworld and walked back, seeing that the merits were complete, if it wasn't for meeting Sister Zhen in my courtyard, we could have opened two jars of good wine to celebrate.
It's a pity......
I looked sideways at Ye Dingxi and Old Man Luo.
Ye Dingxi is okay, although he has the breath of a living person, but he transforms into a cat, it shouldn't be a big problem.
It's Old Man Luo, the matter of the old lover's meeting, he refused it very simply before!
On the side, Zhen Yilian looked at me in a panic and was already suspicious.
"Donglean, you shouldn't be hiding someone who shouldn't have been brought back to the underworld, right?" she looked very serious.
I waved my hand and was about to explain, when I heard a voice in the void behind me.
"Yilian, don't come to harm. ”
The voice?!!!
Zhen Yilian was stunned like thunder and lightning.
Call......
The fire in the white paper lantern was extinguished by a light breeze.
Old man Luo's slightly rickety figure appeared in front of her out of thin air.
On the side, there was also an orange cat squatting, with its round head slightly tilted up, and its eyes were puzzled and cute, as if it was just passing by.
"Meow ......"
I heard his reminder, and quickly squatted down to pick up the orange cat, and then walked to Sister Zhen's side.
"Sister, this old man is ...... It's ......"
"I know him. ”
Zhen Yilian's eyes stared at Old Man Luo's face, and the whole person seemed to be numb from shock, unable to speak, and did not have any strength.
Old man Luo hung his head slightly, and the wide brim of his hat covered most of his face, only the thin dark red lips were lightly opened.
"After all these years, you still know me. There was a clear smile in his voice, but there was no expression on his face.
Zhen Yilian smiled, her face was like a ginkgo hanging on the branches of the autumn wind.
Beauty is beautiful, but it is full of sadness.
"You're still the same old man. ”
Belch?!!!
Secretly hiding under the fence of the courtyard to watch the excitement, I seemed to have really been struck by lightning.
Say good personable?
What about the good Liru Zhilan Jade Tree?!
Say good slowly, say good eyes deep and charming?!!!
After hundreds of years, I finally understand that Sister Zhen is definitely face blind!!
"Meow ......"
In my arms, the orange cat with a gold star in my eyes protested.
I rubbed the little head and lowered my voice, "I'm sorry, I'm so surprised!"
Outside the courtyard, Zhen Yilian's afterglow swept by the fence silently.
"Wenyu, why did you come to the underworld?" she asked.
Old man Luo didn't seem to have heard his name for a long time, and he didn't react for a while.
Luo Wenyu.
How many years ago did this name disappear from the world?
Fifty years, one hundred years, two hundred years?
It's been too long......
He doesn't even know how much Geng is this year.
"What I'm going to do has been done, and if you still remember a relationship back then, you shouldn't have seen me here. ”
Sounds very cold.
I looked at the orange cat and said with my eyes: Old man Luo is too unkind!
Orange Cat: He's not human.
Me: It's not a human, it's not a ghost!
Orange Cat: Yes, my daughter-in-law is right!
Ahem!
I felt a burst of joy in my heart, and I actually liked this kind of daily flirting more and more.
On the other side, Sister Zhen's eyes were full of tears, and she was very aggrieved and unwilling: "Back then, you said that you wanted to repay the grace of saving your life, so you stayed in the underworld to accompany me, but later I was discovered by Lord Zhong, I secretly sent you back to Yang, but you are gone, they all said...... You've been deceiving me, but I don't believe it, I've been looking forward to seeing you again, and I'd like to hear the answer from your mouth with my own ears......"
"I ......"
Old man Luo paused slightly, and his voice sounded cold: "I lied to you." ”
What the?!!!
I was so excited that I grabbed the orange cat's buttocks, and it almost jumped out.
"Murder of my husband!!"
Ye Dingxi didn't care about the presence of outsiders and spoke.
I glanced at my mouth, although I was sorry in my heart, but I still said stiffly: "No wonder it is often said that men don't have a good thing!"
"Where did you hear that?"
Meng Po said. ”
“......”
