After activating the magic card Pot of Greed, Lou Bai washed all the monster cards in his graveyard except for the kite machine man's grave back into the deck, and drew two cards from the deck.

"This is ......" Seeing these two cards, Lou Bai fell into deep thought. Could it be that even my deck is supporting me in doing this? Looking at the old iron opposite, as if he were a fragile and precious porcelain, he carefully pinched the scrap iron child with both hands, and his eyes were full of love for it.

Old man, he's completely immersed in the past...... This nostalgia and reluctance for the good past can even create miracles, and in the world of dueling monsters, their family is reunited in another sense. However, reality is different from the dueling monster, it is cold, cruel, and unforgiving. After this duel, the scrap iron mother and the scrap iron child will not appear again, so how will the old man who has just experienced a reunion in the duel monster face this suffocating world, and how can he survive the torment of loneliness?

"I'm sorry, old man, it's cruel, but let me puncture your beautiful illusion." muttered in a whisper, Lou Bai picked out one of the two hand cards with a complicated expression, and solemnly placed it on the dueling table: "Activate the magic card, hand card exchange!" The effect of this card is that both players expose their hands and each pick one of their opponent's cards to add to their hand! ”

"Nope! No way! You can't do this! After seeing the card played by Lou Bai, he focused all his attention on the scrap iron child in his hand, and the happy smile on Lao Tie's face, who no longer paid attention to the duel, disappeared, and he shouted sadly: "Please, don't take Haoshu away from me again!"

Ignoring Lao Tie's wailing, Lou Bai's face was expressionless, like a cold machine. He said in an emotionless voice: "Now you and I only have one card in our hands, Sa, face the irresistible reality!" ”

"Don't do that!" Lao Tie held the card tightly with both hands, and his eyes were full of reluctance.

"Xiaolan, take him for me!" Lou Bai turned his head and said to Xiaolan who was floating on the side. Although it was a little unbearable to look at Lao Tie's sad expression, it was the master's order after all. Xiao Lan finally controlled the elf power to let the card in Lao Tie's hand come out of his hand, across the entire dueling arena, and flew towards Lou Bai.

"Smack!" Lou Bai grabbed the flying card with his index and middle fingers, and showed its card figure outward to Lao Tie.

"I see the effect of your scrap iron dad on the field, if you don't have this, it would be impossible to increase his attack power to 3600, right?" Lou Bai said coldly. With his words, because he left Lao Tie, this card shaped by Lao Tie with false happiness gradually emitted points of light, and the card map and card name of the scrap iron child slowly disappeared, and the card surface of this card gradually became blank.

Because Lao Tie clutched the card so tightly when it flew away, that one of his palms was scratched by the card with a deep scar. Covering the wound with his other hand, watching the scrap iron child in Lou Bai's hand gradually disappear, Lao Tie shouted angrily: "Stop! ”

After witnessing the scrap iron child turn into a blank card, Lou Bai withdrew the card in his hand, looked down at the unknown co-tuner in his hand who had just been washed back by the effect of the pot of greed, and then came to his hand through the card drawing, looked up and said to Lao Tie: "Then in exchange, give you this card!"

With that, he flew out with the card in his hand, and the unknown tuner was precisely inserted in the center of Lao Tie's deck, leaving only the top half of the card outside.

Holding this unknown co-tuner in exchange for a scrap child, Lao Tie angrily asked Lou Bai: "Why?" Why are you doing this?! ”

Seeing that Lao Tie was not slumped after experiencing huge mood swings, but still had the strength to ask himself, Lou Bai was also a little relieved in his heart. To be honest, his own move just now was also a dangerous move. The appearance of the card of the scrap iron child stems from the old man's beautiful attachment to the past, but the existence of this card also creates a cage, a cage that imprisons the old man in the past.

If this cage is not completely removed, there will always be a trace of luck in the old man's heart: if his wife and Haoshu don't go home today, what if they come back tomorrow, if they don't come back tomorrow, what if the day after tomorrow? In the case that the old man's family is likely to be killed, this kind of luck is like a carrot hanging in front of the donkey, which can be seen but not eaten, and will only make the donkey run until it is exhausted and falls to the ground.

Taking a step back, even if they are still alive, do they have any reason to come back to see the old man after abandoning him for 18 years? Do they have any qualifications to keep the old man waiting?

Based on this idea, Lou Bai played this magic card that might make Lao Tie hate him completely, exchanged his hands, and completely pulled the old man out of the cage in the past.

Pulling his thoughts back to the present, in the face of Lao Tie's angry questioning, Lou Bai cheered himself up in his heart, taking advantage of the present, let the old man no longer indulge in the past and set his sights on the future. Lowering his head and adjusting his expression slightly, making himself look more ruthless, Lou Bai stretched his face, raised his head and responded: "Oh, you ask me why, shouldn't this question be asked to you?" ”

"Why didn't you stop paying attention to duels after you got this card?"

"Why do you grieve so much to lose this mortal bone?"

"Why are you so obsessed with scrap moms and scrap kids?"

"There's only one answer!" Lou Bai waved his hand, pointed his finger straight at Lao Tie, and shouted: "What is hidden behind this card is the reality you don't want to face!" ”

"I ...... I don't want to face it...... Is it realistic? Hearing this, Lao Tie's heart seemed to ring a bell, and the memories of his family after leaving were presented in front of him again like a roll of film: he set up dishes and chopsticks in front of two empty chairs, and ate with the two chairs; In Haoshu's study, he chattered at the empty desk; Before going to bed, say goodnight to the other side of the bed......

"It turns out that they are really gone...... Lao Tie laughed at himself with a wry smile, and as he spoke, he shed tears.

Seeing this scene, Lou Bai also said in a soft voice: "Old man, people can't go back to the past, blindly indulging in the past will only lose the beauty of the present and the future, you don't want those who love you to see your decadent appearance, right?" ”

"yes, yes." Lao Tie laughed at himself in a low voice, then raised his head and said with a firm expression: "It's still your turn now, attack me!" ”

"Nope." To Lao Tie's surprise, in the face of his invitation, Lou Bai shook his head and said, "I won't attack, so the round will end." ”

"Stinky boy, are you looking down on me?" Faced with Lou Bai's move, Lao Tie took it as a matter of course as contempt for himself, and he scolded angrily.

"Not really." Lou Bai shook his head, pointed his finger at the unknown tuner who had just been exchanged to Lao Tie, and said, "What I just exchanged to you is an unknown tuner with unknown power, and under the light of the tone, it can guide the power of people's hearts. Come on, old man, let me see your inner consciousness! That's how I'm done! ”

Frontcourt: Guardian of the Phantom Layer - Amadeus, Mediocre, Giant Mediocre

Backcourt: None

Hand: 0

"Really? If you want to see my inner consciousness, then you can show me! My turn, gacha! Facing Lou Bai's invitation, Lao Tie smiled softly and pulled out a card at the top of his deck. Flipping the card, Lao Tie drew a trap card that can summon monsters from the graveyard in this round, and rise by one star and 100 attack power to strengthen Su Sheng.

"The card that resurrected the monster from the graveyard, I don't need it anymore." Lao Tie whispered. After stamping the trap card in the backcourt, he looked at his only hand, which was also the one given to him by Lou Bai in the previous round, an unknown co-tuner.

My inner enlightenment, let me show you. Lao Tie thought in his heart. However, when he looked up at the dueling arena, he saw the figure of his child Haoshu again. Lao Tie was stunned again, although he had made up his mind to let go, but this was so easy, seeing the child's figure, Lao Tie's eyes turned red again.

Unlike the last time he appeared, this time he appeared a lot taller, wearing a suit and a pair of square-rimmed glasses, and appeared among the scrap iron father and the scrap iron mother. Holding the hands of the scrap iron father and the scrap iron mother, Haoshu smiled and said to Lao Tie gently: "Father, it's a pity, this is the last time I see you, my mother and I are going to another world, you must live well here, don't torture yourself anymore, otherwise my mother and I will be worried."

"Okay, okay." At this time, although Lao Tie was a father, he cried like a child and burst into tears.

Just as Haoshu's phantom gradually dissipated, Lao Tie wiped his face with his left hand, and raised the unknown co-tune priest high with his right hand. At this time, it was already evening, and the sunset was gradually setting, which happened to be behind Lao Tie, making him look full of epicness, and his thin face looked so solemn at this time.

"I use the unknown tuner to tune my scrap dad and scrap mom on the field!"

With Lao Tie's words, with the unknown tuner in his hand as the center of the circle, an iron-gray aura slowly opened behind him, and the scrap father and scrap mother on the field floated into the air and gradually disintegrated. As if attracted, the parts that make up their bodies all converge into the ring behind Old Iron.

"Even if it is an old scrap, a new life can be born under the gathered thoughts! Call for harmony, revive! Level 8, Scrap Iron Dragon! ”

Along with Lao Tie's words, many discarded parts were interspersed and spliced together in the aura, and a moment later, the dragon made of scrap iron lit up its red eyes, opened its black wings, and let out his first roar since he came to this world.

"Roar!"

【Scrap Iron Dragon 8-Star Homotonic Dragon ATK: 2800→3300 (Scrap Factory Effect)】

"It's magnificent!" Looking at the scrap iron dragon standing behind Lao Tie, Lou Bai sighed sincerely.

"The effect of the Scrap Iron Dragon is activated!" Lao Tie turned his head to look at the dragon born from his past, and activated his effect: "You can activate one card on your field and one card on your field to destroy them!" I'm going to choose between my backcourt gaika and your mediocre ghost on the field! ”

The scrap iron dragon first swept its tail, smashed the gaika on its own field, and then flapped its wings, and the fragments flew towards the mediocre ghost like bullets. As a normal monster, the defenseless mediocre ghost entered the graveyard as a matter of course. After that, a huge explosion sounded on Lou Bai's field, because there was no manipulation of the mediocre ghost, the huge mediocre ghost exploded unexpectedly.

Lou Bai, who usually gives self-explosion to others, experienced the taste of being bombed for the first time, and the blazing sound and light accompanied by the heat wave hit him, under this momentum, the dueling platform under him made an unsettling creaking, and the scrap heaps next to the dueling platform also looked a little shaky.

Lou Bai LP: 3100→600

"Ahem, it turns out that being bombed is like this, it's really exciting!" Lou Bai wiped the ash on his face and said with a wry smile.

"Stinky boy, it's not over yet, don't you want to see my inner consciousness, then you can show me!" The stinky old man looked at Lou Bai's grizzled face, and said with a gloating smile: "Scrap Iron Dragon, attack the phantom layer guardian Amadeus!" ”

The huge dragon's wings shook, and rushed towards the phantom guardian in front of Lou Bai-Amadeus, and in the face of the attack of the scrap iron dragon, Lou Bai also shouted: "Amadeus, we can't lose in momentum, give it to me!" ”

The two magic balls in Amadeus' hands collided violently with the head hammer of the scrap iron dragon, but unfortunately due to the gap in hard power, Amadeus's magic finally failed to stop the scrap iron dragon. The scrap iron dragon flapped its wings violently, and the head hammer pierced through Amadeus with an irresistible momentum, slamming into the dueling arena.

Lou Bai LP: 600→0

At the end of the duel, Lou Bai was just about to discuss his new monster with Lao Tie, but at this moment, an accident happened. Due to the self-explosion of the huge mediocre ghost and the impact of the scrap iron dragon, the crumbling scrap mountains on the side finally couldn't support it, and fell in the direction of the dueling arena.

However, in this dangerous situation, Lou Bai's mind was unusually calm. He first shouted to Larry, who was overwhelmed in the audience, to take refuge in a safe place, and then picked up the deck and jumped forward, jumping onto Xiao Lan, who had materialized and turned into a dragon form, and quickly flew in the direction of Lao Tie. Finally, at the moment when the waste was about to bury Lao Tie, he grabbed Lao Tie's collar and dragged him to fly into the air.

"Hahaha!"

When the collapse of the scrap subsided, Blue placed them on the scrap pile. Lou Bai and Lao Tie looked at each other's dusty faces, and couldn't help laughing, the sunset shone on the two men in the old one, stretching their shadows very long.
