Chapter 22: Memories of Mid-Autumn Lanterns

Zhan Lu had a headache, the little junior sister's ability to complain was too strong, and she couldn't resist it.

She wasn't going to have much to do with anyone other than Twilight, but these people had been treating her with good manners these days.

She's always been a loner, and she suddenly thinks it's not bad to turn these Twilight peers into the category of familiar people.

Zhan Lu didn't want to put much thought into it, so she was straightforward.

"It wasn't me last night, it was Canghai."

Liu Qinuo still looked at Zhan Lu with strange eyes, as if asking, "Do you believe this?" ā€

Zhan Lu was helpless, "That's really not me, I was with Qiandu last night." ā€

"Not you?" Liu Qinuo was still suspicious, and looked at Zhan Lu and then at Qiandu, seeking help from his senior brother with his eyes.

She has always trusted Twilight the most, because Twilight never lies.

Twilight helped explain, "It's Canghai in red, we met her outside the city last night. ā€

Okay, senior brother opened Chrysostom, that's true.

Liu Qinuo believed it, she could bend and stretch, and felt a little embarrassed by her impulsive behavior just now.

"Zhan Lu, I'm sorry,...... I misunderstood you just now. ā€

Zhan Lu waved his hand: "It's okay." She didn't care at all about other people's suspicions about her.

In addition, these days, she also knows Liu Qinuo's character, and she can't hide her words.

The heart is straightforward and straightforward, but there are no bad intentions and no twists and turns.

This little sister's temper is not hidden, she has a temper on the spot, she has to ask clearly in person if she has anything to say, and when she finds it clear, she will pass, and she will not hold grudges, people are not bad, but they are easy to be impulsive.

This kind of person is very good, not tired to get along with, Zhan Lu thinks that she and Liu Qinuo should be able to get along amicably.

Dai Peilan waited for them to finish speaking, and asked weakly: "So this man's disappearance is solved?" ā€

Twilight: "It's settled. ā€

Dai Peilan: "Is that devil the Oiran Feng Niang?" ā€

Chiwi: "Yes"

"Is he awesome? Master, how did you destroy him? Mao Zheng also joined in, his eyes were shining, and he was anxious to be interested.

He yearns for someone as powerful as his master, who can slay demons and eliminate demons, for people like him who have no experience in eliminating demons and defending the way, he admires every success of his master, and is curious.

Isn't it amazing? Qiandu asked herself, in terms of mana, Feng Niang is not powerful, but she can block his movements, he has not been controlled by monsters in almost 100 years.

When they practice, they don't just practice spells, but most importantly, they need to cultivate their minds.

When he first entered the school, when he first began to train, he would also be invincible to the cunning methods of monsters, who were good at arousing people's evil side and destroying people's will.

In the past, he was cold-hearted and cold-hearted, and he had no desires in his heart, like an impregnable copper wall, and the monsters had no way to deal with him.

Even if you control him, you can only control the kung fu of a stunned god.

Later, his cultivation became more profound, and his heart became more determined, and he was never controlled by monsters again.

Last night was his failure, not because he was strong, but because he had a weakness. There are people you care about, and things related to people you care about.

If he wants to protect the people he wants to protect, he has to become stronger.

"Master?"

Seeing him pondering, Mao Zheng urged in a low voice.

"Killed by the sea." Zhan Lu thoughtfully answered his question for Twilight.

"Ah" Mao Zheng's interest fell to the bottom in an instant, so how could he ask, Canghai is not here.

Even if Canghai was here, he didn't dare to ask.

That's a bad woman.

Dai Peijiu is quite silent today, he is in self-isolation.

Last night, he didn't even see that the woman was not Zhan Lu, and he followed the trick, but it was really a failure.

He claimed to know women best, but he didn't even see it.

Looking back now, although Canghai and Zhan Lu look exactly the same.

But the temperament of the two is completely different.

Zhan Lu is like a dark lotus in the holy land of the fairy world, elegant, noble, holy and cold.

This lotus flower has a holy body, but it blooms in the Netherworld Ghost Domain, and is dyed with some inconspicuous mystery and danger.

But she still carries the light of holiness.

The sea is like the flower on the other side of the Yellow Spring Road, gorgeous, mysterious, dangerous, and evil.

She herself was born of darkness and carries darkness.

The two people who are so different from each other are completely the opposite of Zhan Lu, and he superficially thinks that they are one person just by one face.

Dai Peijiu was annoyed, but no one noticed his downfall.

When I came back from solving Feng Niang's matter last night, I saw that a shelf for hanging lanterns had been set up on the street, and I remembered that today was the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Zhan Lu said that she wanted to see the lantern festival.

So for the sake of Zhanlu, Qiandui decided to stay one more day and go back after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

After hearing the good news, Dai Peilan, Mao Zheng, and Liu Qinuo were so excited that they ran away.

Dai Peijiu ordered a few jars of osmanthus wine alone, and decided to give himself a vacation and let his younger brother fly freely, as long as the kid didn't go to heaven, he could accept it.

As the sun sets, the sky gradually turns black, and at first a few lights shimmer, adding some light to the night.

Immediately after that, the lights of each family came on, and in an instant, the night that was so dark that you couldn't see your fingers was as bright as day.

Under the lights, everything is clearly visible, and all kinds of things are shrouded in a layer of soft light, which is more hazy and beautiful than what is seen in the daytime.

Zhan Lu stood under the riverside promenade and waited for the twilight.

They originally came out together, but after watching the lantern festival and guessing the riddles, she wanted to come and release the river lanterns, but when she turned around, Twilight didn't follow.

So she stood here waiting, confident that Twilight would come to her.

The river lights are shining on the river, and the waves on the river surface illuminated by the river lights at night have a unique view, which is not seen on weekdays, but can only be seen during festivals.

Soon, Twilight came to him, holding a rabbit lantern in his left hand and a lotus river lantern in his right hand.

Dressed in white, it is very eye-catching in the night, and every step he takes is fairy-like and unstained with dust.

The people passing by couldn't help but take a few more looks, and then silently made a passage for him, they all wanted to see what was the matter with such a character immortal?

I saw the immortal walk firmly towards the place where a woman was waiting under the corridor.

Look at the woman again, her clothes are fluttering, and she is as beautiful as a fairy who came out of the painting.

Sure enough, the only one who can match such a handsome and beautiful immortal can only be a fairy who is also stunning and beautiful.

But these two people are really just right, the picture of standing together is very eye-catching, and the color of the white and pink clothes is just right.

Qian Du handed the lotus lantern to Zhan Lu: "The river lantern over there is more exquisitely made." ā€

Zhan Lu took the river lantern, admired it for a moment, and smiled slightly: "Indeed, this one is better-looking." ā€

During the time that Zhan Lu was waiting for Qiandui just now, she had been looking at all kinds of river lanterns on the river.

The one in her hand was indeed more exquisite than those river lanterns, not only a lotus flower, but also a small lotus leaf.

After Zhan Lu put the river lantern away, Qiandui gave her the rabbit lantern in her hand: "This is for you, it seems that you owe it for a long time." ā€

Zhan Lu took the river lantern, but her eyes were red, and she died shortly after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Ever since she met Twilight, she has been going to see the lights with Twilight every Mid-Autumn every year.

After the lantern festival is over, Twilight sends her home, and before each time she goes home, Twilight always gives her a rabbit lantern.

But in the end, they didn't spend that Mid-Autumn together.,Chiwi had to go to another place to deal with some things.,Only she stayed in the capital alone.,And the situation was special at that time.,She's not in the mood for Mid-Autumn.怂

"Do you remember?" Her voice was a little astringent.

"I remembered some fragments." Because of Feng Niang, he remembered some fragments from a long time ago.

"I remembered that in mid-autumn we watched the lights together, sent you home, and gave you rabbit lights."

After a pause, Twilight said, "Also, I—I stabbed you with a dagger." In just a few words, Twilight said it was extremely difficult.

That part was his pain, uncomfortable to think about, and uncomfortable to mention, but he owed Zhan Lu an apology, and he had to reveal his scars again.

Twilight stepped forward and gently wiped away Zhanlu's tears with her hand:

"I don't remember the reason yet, but I'm sorry to say to you."

"It's just that these three words are too light to make up for my mistakes."

"I don't ask you to forgive..... "But I want you to stay with me."

Twilight doesn't know if she'll be bold enough to make this request.

Zhan Lu shook his head, and said in a choked voice: "Don't be sorry, it wasn't you who did it, it's the fault of the demons, I never blamed you." ā€

"I'm just afraid that you won't know the truth and will always be in pain, so I'm back."

"Chiwi, you can take me to a higher place to admire the moon."

Zhan Lu sorted out her emotions and asked.

Twilight flipped her sword into the air, grabbed Zhan Lu's waist, and took her with the sword, and then flew into the air with the sword.

Under the starry night sky, they found a place facing the moon and hovered, and the two sat on their swords.

Qiandu took out the osmanthus cake she had bought in advance and gave it to Zhan Lu, who picked up a piece and ate it slowly.

The two sat in silence against the moon.

Last night, Zhanlu thought that Twilight would ask her the truth about how he killed her two hundred years ago, or maybe ask her about Canghai, but Twilight didn't ask anything.

Before telling the truth about the past, she wonders how Twilight managed to restrain her curiosity.

"On the way back last night, I thought you would ask me, but I waited all the way, and you didn't ask, so I spent the whole night thinking about why you didn't ask me, when would you ask me, and then I didn't sleep well."

Under the influence of Feng Niang's spell, Twilight saw the clip of him killing Zhanlu, but he didn't know exactly what happened, and he only deduced that it wasn't his own consciousness last night.

That incident was a pain in his heart, but he had to face it, he wanted to know all the truth, and he couldn't let go of those who had hurt Zhan Lu, including himself.
