Chapter 33: The Head Under the Stars

Lu Yi didn't know what was happening in the office, and of course he didn't know that his prospective father-in-law didn't really want to marry his daughter to him.

If Lu Yi knew about this, he would definitely happily find the Earl at once, and ask him to bring his daughter back quickly, so as to save himself from being afraid all day.

Amy followed closely behind Lu Yi, at first she was holding her hands alone, but then she couldn't walk anymore, and she quickly stepped forward and hung on Lu Yi's arm, and the two didn't say a few words along the way, and when they finally walked to the door of the inner courtyard, it was already dark.

Lu Yi approached the iron gate of the inner courtyard and found that the door was actually locked.

"Jump over?"

Amy was too tired to speak, so she hummed softly.

Lu Yi looked at Amy with a sad face and said, "I didn't bring a magic weapon, so it's a little difficult to get you over." ”

Amy still only gave a very small sigh of gratitude.

"You should be able to do that, right?" Lu Yi shook Amy, who was hugging his arm, and said, "Object floatation and the like, it's not a very difficult magic, right?"

This time, Amy simply ignored him and closed her eyes as if she was asleep.

"Hey, say something. Lu Yi shouted at Amy, if there was really no way, he couldn't just throw Amy in like Yuan Han.

Just when Lu Yi was in a dilemma, the lights were lit in the guard room on the side, accompanied by a cough, and an old man with white hair and beard walked out of the guard room, still holding a bunch of keys in his hand.

Lu Yi nodded at the old man and said, "Doorman...... Old man, can you please open the door?"

When the old man heard this, he took his hands, leaned over, and slowly paced towards the door, Lu Yi hurriedly got out of the way, and when the old man passed in front of Lu Yi, Lu Yi's nose twitched and smelled a very strange smell.

The old man was looking for the key to the door from the bunch of keys, and the old man's eyesight did not seem to be very good, and it was very difficult to find it as night fell.

Lu Yi was able to look at the old man carefully and confirmed that the smell was coming from the old man.

It was a musty smell, but it was more damp than the musty smell, Lu Yi tilted his head, and saw inside through the door of the half-closed guard's room, the conditions in the guard's room were not very bad, and there should not be such a smell.

The old man finally found the key to the door at this time, trembled his hands slightly, and wanted to poke the key into the hole, but he failed several times, Lu Yi looked at the old man's movements, and was very sympathetic, because he was sure that the smell was not something moldy, but an old smell, a dead smell, which kept coming out of the old man's body.

Finally, with a "click", the door lock opened, and with a tooth-aching creak, the door opened.

"Thank you. Lu Yi bowed earnestly to the old man and walked into the door.

After the two of them entered, the old man slowly closed the door and locked it, looking very difficult.

"Excuse me. Lu Yi said again.

At this time, the old man spoke rarely, and the old man's voice was like that smell, full of rotten breath: "Come back early in the future." ”

"Definitely, definitely. ”

Lu Yi was very apologetic and walked towards the Heavenly Palace with Amy in his arms.

......

......

"Old gentleman?"

Lu Yi didn't take two steps before he saw Amy's old butler.

When the old housekeeper saw Amy holding Lu Yi's arm, a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes, but Lu Yi didn't notice it, so he went straight to the old housekeeper and wanted to explain.

The old housekeeper directly pulled Amy over and carried her on her back, generally speaking, Amy should make a lot of noise at this time and resist desperately, but at this time, she was already exhausted and couldn't take care of these anymore, so she could only frown her cute little brows and hum a few times to show her emotions, but soon fell asleep on the old housekeeper's back.

Lu Yi was about to tell the old butler about the key, but after thinking about it, Amy seemed to be under the care of the old housekeeper everywhere, and finally had a poor little secret, so he didn't want to tell it.

"Old gentleman......"

"Mr. Lu. As soon as Lu Yi spoke, he was directly interrupted by the old housekeeper: "Miss doesn't understand the affairs of men and women, don't you understand it either?"

Lu Yi knew that it was really inappropriate to let Amy stick to herself like this, so he hurriedly explained: "Old man, Miss Amy is still young, I only treat Miss as a child, but I don't have that kind of mind." ”

"Since Mr. Lu can win the favor of the principal, I naturally believe it. The old butler was unceremonious, and said in a stern tone: "But what kind of system can you let others see?"

Lu Yi reluctantly bowed and said, "The old gentleman has taught him a lesson." ”

The old butler snorted coldly, turned around with Amy on his back and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Lu Yi.

"Sir, when Miss Amy wakes up, please tell her, and say that I will give her three books, and when you want to come to me directly. ”

Looking at Amy's state, it is impossible to buy a book today, and Lu Yi doesn't want to break his promise, so he simply promises to the book.

"Got it. ”

The old butler carried Amy to the fork in the road.

The old housekeeper actually didn't want to embarrass Lu Yi, but the two were too close, and the young lady of his own family didn't know anything about this matter, and she would be taken advantage of if she was not careful.

Now it seems that Lu Yi's character is okay, and he has a deep background, if his young lady can maintain a good relationship with him, it would be great.

A thought appeared in the old butler's mind, but the old butler directly denied it, Lu Yi's marriage contract with that Miss Dracula was well known, and the relationship with that Miss Yuan Xuan was not clear, Amy still didn't go into this troubled water again.

......

......

Lu Yi stood alone at the fork in the plain of the inner courtyard, the bright moon shining on people, and the stars were dotted.

Lu Yi looked up at the starry sky, and suddenly felt a little cold, so he tightened his clothes, found a lawn on the side of the road and sat down, and soon indulged in the vast galaxy.

Lu Yi has the habit of looking up at the starry sky at night since he was a child, he doesn't do this to do any deep thinking, he just simply likes to look at the night sky, only then Lu Yi's mood will be completely silent, don't think about anything, don't do anything, this feeling Lu Yi likes very much, it can make him forget his uncle's annoying voice, as well as those heavy studies, and ...... Youkai who are chasing or are chasing themselves.

The night sky here is very clear, there is not a single cloud in the sky, you can see every star very clearly, and you can even see some lines on the surface of the moon.

Lu Yi looked up and looked a little tired, so he simply lay down on the lawn, squinting his eyes, wanting to see more clearly, and looked like he was asleep from a distance.

Soon, a rustling sound sounded, and Lu Yi immediately turned over as if reflexively, knelt on one knee, and made a posture that was most suitable for assault, or rather, the most suitable for escaping.

A man in a white robe stood on the lawn across the road, holding a red box in his hand, looking at him from afar.

Lu Yi saw the silver cross on the chest of the white-robed man and asked, "People from the Holy See?"

The white-robed man walked over with the box in his hand, and Lu Yi immediately stood up, and it was better to be careful when he was not sure whether the other party had malicious intentions.

The white-robed man walked up to Lu Yi, bowed over, then knelt on the ground and opened the box in his hand towards Lu Yi.

Lu Yi looked at the things in the box, first taken aback, and then asked puzzledly, "What do you mean?"

The white-robed man leaned down and said in a clear voice: "Today, when Mr. Lu and Heavenly Master Dao clashed in the Heavenly Palace, Father Andre Ben told Zhang Jianfei the news as soon as possible, and Master Donald Cruz said that he was very sorry and sent me to send Father Ben's head. ”

Lu Yi looked at the head of a person he didn't know in the box, and he had mixed feelings in his heart, if he wanted to say that this priest named Ben was completely innocent, Lu Yi didn't think so, if Zhang Jianfei could come late for a while in the afternoon so that he could find a helper, he wouldn't be so embarrassed at all, but then again, just because of this incident, this person who had never met lost his life, Lu Yi was still a little unacceptable.

Lu Yi understood that this was Donald doing his best to show favor to himself, and then thought of Bai Qing's intention to expose Donald's desire to become the leader of his own human race, Lu Yi didn't know how to react.

"This ...... What do you call a priest?"

The white-robed man leaned over and replied, "Mr. Lu, you can call me White." ”

"Father White. Lu Yi nodded and said, "You get up first." ”

Father White, kneeling on the ground, said: "Rites must not be abolished. ”

Lu Yi felt funny and said: "The ritual of kneeling disappeared in China a hundred years ago, and now only the parents of heaven and earth are kneeling, Father White, you should get up first." ”

"Yes. Father White did not hesitate and stood up.

"Trouble tell Donald...... Just say ......"

Lu Yi swallowed, he had a good impression of Donald and didn't mind associating with him, but if he made something like now, he always felt that it was not right, and after it was mixed with favors, the whole process looked like a transaction, and Lu Yi didn't like it very much.

Before Lu Yi finished speaking, Father White bowed his head and said, "Mr. Lu, Master Cruz said, you can think about it slowly, and you don't need to give an answer now. ”

Lu Yi was stunned for a moment and said, "Then tell Donald about the trouble, and say that I will receive the heart." ”

"Yes. ”

Lu Yi scratched his head in distress and said, "Also, you can take this head back and find a place to bury it." ”

"Yes. Father White bent down and picked up the box containing the head, and asked, "Do you have any other orders?"

"It's gone. ”

After Lu Yi finished speaking, he sat back on the lawn, his interest in admiring the moon was not disturbed by a human head at all, and he had seen more than this cruel picture before.

"Mr. Lu. Father White turned back and reminded, "You'd better go back early." ”

"Huh?"

"In your dorm...... There are a lot of people waiting for you to go back. ”
