Chapter 49 The most beautiful thing in the world
Five p.m.
Donghai City, which had been under control for six or seven days, became noisy again.
The prosperity remains the same.
"It's at Longfeng Tower in the city center," the girl said cautiously on the other end of the phone: "The restrictions were just lifted today, and many restaurants haven't opened yet, so we can only eat here."
"Remember, I won't be late."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Xuan quickly tried on the new clothes he just bought, which cost him more than two hundred yuan.
Although money has become completely dispensable to him now, Lu Xuan is used to being poor, and he still saves money and does not dare to spend lavishly.
The suffering is still vivid in my mind.
While carefully arranging the folds of his clothes, Lu Xuan recalled his previous conversation with Uncle Wu, and his cheerful expression dimmed slightly.
Not only because of the saying, 'The Great Wall bleeds into a river,' but also because of some subsequent inquiries.
"Uncle Wu, do you know Qianlong City? Qianlong City seven years ago."
"I know."
"Can you tell me the truth? Why did everyone in Qianlong City have their information wiped out? Why is there no report on the news? Why... does the incident in Qianlong City have something to do with Shenglou?"
"I don't know the details, but I originally suspected that the changes in Qianlong City were related to Shenglou, so I committed suicide and gave up my position as a great doctor. Of course, it was just suspicion."
"Then Uncle Wu, is it also Shenglou who blocked the information?"
"No, it's the Federation. If you want to find out the truth, you have to read the secret files of the Federation. The owner of the building is suspected of being immortal. My child, no matter what, don't be impulsive."
Thinking back to this, Lu Xuan's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he felt stuffy in his chest!
"I will find out if the building is alive, I will definitely do it!"
"And the Federation."
Lu Xuan buried these thoughts in his heart for a while, and then he regained his composure.
After putting on his new clothes, slightly stimulating his energy and blood, creating a burning sensation in his palms to ensure that the roasted sweet potatoes and stir-fried chestnuts would not get cold, he went out feeling a little uneasy.
This is the first time in seven years that I have eaten in a restaurant.
and a girl.
Well, no, there's also her father.
Longhu Mountain.
The mountains are ten thousand feet high, the clouds are light and the wind is clear.
The Heavenly Master pinched and pinched and calculated again and again, but he still couldn't figure out the details.
He forced himself to peek into Tianji, but all he saw was the sword intent of the end of all things, and his eyes were bleeding.
"The three-five evil-killing swords left by our ancestors have remained silent for thousands of years, but today the swords are ringing. Why?"
After thinking for a long time and wiping the blood and tears from the corners of his eyes, the Heavenly Master seemed to have made a decision and walked straight to the forbidden area at the top of Longhu Mountain.
Here, a towering Taoist palace stands, majestic and solemn. In front of the Taoist palace, there are two sky-reaching peach trees, one is older and the other is younger.
The smaller one seems to be dead, with no branches, and the tree is covered with scorch marks and wounds, while the older one is extremely tall and straight, with shade like a canopy and peach blossoms in bloom.
The Heavenly Master set up the Dharma altar, performed rituals, burned yellow paper, and paid homage to the ancestor.
Then, he carefully bowed respectfully to the older peach tree:
"Ancestor."
The old Heavenly Master said:
"The reason why I came here today to disturb you is because there is something strange about the Sanwu Evil Sword."
The peach trees are swaying, the fairy light is vast, and the divine flowers are attached to them, and the silk threads are endless.
After a while, a tired hoarse sound came from the tree.
"I have made a prediction. It is due to the East China Sea."
It spoke intermittently, as if it was extremely difficult. Just after saying this, the divine flower on the tree dimmed a lot.
The Heavenly Master was not surprised and bowed again:
"Ancestor, I understand. I apologize for disturbing you so much. You can continue to sleep peacefully."
After he respectfully withdrew, he thought for a long time and called a Taoist priest of the third rank:
"Is there anything unusual in the East China Sea recently?"
"Returning to Master, two Earth Immortals died in Donghai City on the shores of the East China Sea today. At the same time, there are rumors that there is a great ruin in Donghai City that is about to be born."
"It's time for this generation of disciples to go down the mountain to experience the mortal world, so I asked them to go to Donghai City. You will follow them and report the details of the journey at all times."
"Yes, Master."
Donghai City, Shangcheng District.
At this time, there were more people on the street, order was gradually restored, and lanterns were hung on the branches again.
Lu Xuan held fried chestnuts with sugar in his left hand and roasted sweet potatoes in his right hand. He picked up his mobile phone between two fingers and looked at the navigation with difficulty.
While walking on the road, he inadvertently raised his chest and raised his head, as if to show off his new clothes to passers-by.
Not long after walking, we arrived at the place to eat.
It wasn't that Lu Xuan saw the sign or anything like that, but that he saw the girl standing at the corner of the street.
The girl was wearing a white dress, with the spring breeze blowing and the corners of the skirt flying, revealing her smooth and slender thighs. She was holding a book in her hand, reading while occasionally raising her head and looking around, as if waiting for something.
The sun shines through the clouds, along with the spring breeze, and shines on the girl's body. Her hair on the temples is shimmering, but it can't hide the whiteness of her neck.
She just stood there quietly, like a painting, the most beautiful person in the world.
Lu Xuan's heart warmed slightly, and he quietly walked forward, stood behind the girl, and clumsily patted her shoulder with the hand holding the candied chestnuts.
Yan Jiangxue trembled with fright, like a frightened little white rabbit, she jumped on her two little feet and ran out several meters away. She didn't run back until she saw the person clearly.
"Little Lu!" She smiled brightly: "He's here!"
Saying that, Yan Jiangxue smiled even more happily when she saw the roasted sweet potatoes and sugar-fried chestnuts in Lu Xuan's hands. She knew that these must be brought for her!
Lu Xuan generously handed over three bags of snacks:
"Here, here you go."
"It's still warm!" Yan Jiangxue took it and swallowed: "I brought you delicious food too!"
As she spoke, she clumsily but carefully took out a small bag of translucent beads from her pocket and handed them to Lu Xuan.
Yan Jiangxue said:
"You should eat this slowly. It seems to be good for your kidneys. Don't eat too much."
"This is..." Lu Xuan was confused, having never seen this kind of food before.
But before he could ask any more questions, the girl said cheerfully:
"Let's go, let's go, my dad is coming too, let's go up first!"
The two walked into the restaurant and took a seat by the window on the second floor under the guidance of the waiter.
Probably because it was one of the few restaurants open at this time, the first floor was already overcrowded, and the second floor was almost full as well.
"This restaurant tastes great, but it's a pity that the private rooms are under renovation." As she said this, the girl pouted, a little unhappy. She was afraid of strangers, but there were a lot of people here.
Yan Jiangxue peeled off a chestnut and handed it to him playfully:
"you eat."
Lu Xuan was not polite. He took the chestnut and stuffed it into his mouth. He asked vaguely:
"Xiao Yan, talking about your father, why do you suddenly think about whether your father will be fierce when he sees me?"
"I don't know. Maybe, maybe because you are my first friend, my dad wants to meet you."
The girl's voice became softer and quieter as she spoke, and finally became as thin as a mosquito.
Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment, his first friend?
When Yan Jiangxue was about to say something more, someone suddenly approached. She shrank her neck timidly, with frost on her face again, and swallowed back the words that came to her mouth.
"Sorry to bother you."
The two people turned their heads and saw four young men and women dressed in fine clothes and full of nobility. The young man at the head apologized:
"It's like this. There are many of us, and then all the four-person tables are full, and only the two-person table is left, so we want to change seats with two people, is that okay?"
As he said that, the young man glanced at Yan Jiangxue, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. What a beautiful girl, but she looked a little cold.
"This" Lu Xuan waved his hand and said softly: "Sorry, we have another person on the way, so..."
"Would you like to switch to another family?" Another younger boy frowned and said, "I'll give you five thousand yuan."
Before he could finish his words, the leading young man raised his hand to stop him and scolded him:
"How many times have I told you not to do this? When you walk outside, your words and deeds represent the tutor at home. Do you like to cause trouble so much?"
The young man shut his mouth angrily.
The young man turned his head again and apologized:
"My brother has made you two laugh. In this case, we will go to other places and ask again, so we won't bother you."
With that said, he led the other three people towards the side table.
Lu Xuan blinked and didn't pay attention. He just smiled and asked Yan Jiangxue:
"Speaking of which, what kind of person is your father? I'm afraid I might say the wrong thing later."
"I can't tell clearly. Hey, my dad is here!"
A majestic middle-aged man strode over, sat down next to Yan Jiangxue, and nodded slightly to Lu Xuan.
"Hello, uncle!" Lu Xuan blurted out, and after seeing the person clearly, his expression suddenly froze.
