Magnificent Years

Lu Anru didn't hear the answer for a long time, looked sideways, and saw Lianhua standing in front of the coffee table made of a whole piece of colored glaze.

Walking over and following the other person's gaze to look at the table, there are two lines of words printed on the table: where the heart goes, where the amulet goes.

Runes were printed around the two lines, Lu Anru couldn't understand it, but Lianhua took it seriously.It's not easy to disturb people's thoughts, maybe they can understand some powerful spells by themselves.

She turned around and gave a shush gesture to Ella who was also curious, hooked Ella and Rosa's arms respectively, and led them away from the scene of stealing the teacher.

The three sat on the sofa, and Lu Anru scanned the food with the newly bought wristband.After verifying the non-toxic and non-hazardous powder, pick up the snack plate and distribute the snacks.

Putting colorful snack packs in Ella and Rosa's arms, she tore open the plum bag, pinched two into her mouth, and then stuffed potato chips into her mouth.Homemade plum-flavored potato chips, fragrant, crunchy, sweet and sour.

When she ate the fourth pack of snacks, Rosa lost her composure, took out her computer to check the time, and worriedly said, "It's 9 o'clock, why is no one here?"

As if hearing Rosa's question, the door was pushed open from the outside.

A woman in a silver fox cloak walked in. She came in front of the foodie group, and with a light push towards the door, the door automatically closed tightly.

"Hi everyone, I've been waiting for a long time."

The woman took off her cloak, and a face riddled with holes appeared in front of the three of them.Not only did she have burns and knife wounds on her face, but she even had the kind of depression where the flesh was gouged out.It was no longer possible to see the woman's original appearance, and the scars turned into blood evidence, all of which proved what kind of inhuman torture she had suffered.

Rosa put her hand over her gaping mouth to keep herself from making disrespectful exclamations.

Ella has strong empathy and sympathy, and she crazily elbowed Lu Anru, expressing how miserable she is.

Lu Anru glanced at the lotus standing in front of the glazed table, but the master was still concentrating on reading the runes.

A date with 300 appreciation cards, each minute is worth tens of thousands, Lu Anru didn't waste time, stood up and extended his hand to introduce himself.

"Hello, Lu Anru."

"I know you. You are very famous recently. All major entertainment, financial and social news are following and reporting on you."

The woman suddenly added with a smile like a flower: "And your Tong Yangfu, who ranks in the top five in the world, is also very famous. It's an honor to meet you today."

Lu Anru laughed a few times with Guan Shi, but the corners of her mouth were a little sore.

The woman slowly raised her hand, but before she touched Lu Anru, a loud voice came from not far away: "Don't shake hands with her."

A vermilion talisman was thrown from between Lianhua's two fingers, hitting the back of Lu Anru's hand.

In an instant, an invisible force pushed her to the sofa.

Lu Anru passively sat back next to Ella, and saw the lotus hand holding the magic formula approaching the woman, as if she was full of anger and couldn't vent.

When the woman saw the lotus, her smile became brighter and she opened her arms to welcome.

"My little Lian'er has grown up, come to hug my grandma, grandma has been thinking of little Lian'er very much these past few years."

Aila gasped, and kept poking the side of Lu Anru's arm with her finger, expressing her shock.They all knew the intention of Lotus to invite them, but they got the exact opposite.

Lianhua slapped the hand outstretched in front of her like dirty, and asked through gritted teeth, "Who the hell are you? My grandma died a long time ago! Tell me, why are you pretending to be my grandma?"

The woman's right hand was slapped off, and the other hand sank back to her side, mournfully complaining.

"Little Lianer, of course I am your grandmother. It doesn't matter if you refuse to recognize me, but grandmother will always remember everything about you when you were a child. The first spell you learned was the repair spell, because you accidentally broke your Dad’s favorite cup, you came here in a hurry and asked me to teach you how to repair the cup. Your most handy spell is the separation spell. You can separate all the structures of an object at the age of seven. The most hated practice The spell is a recognition spell, and you think it was that spell that caused the clansmen to be hunted down, so, "

"Enough! Stop talking! I don't want to hear it!"

Lianhua covered her ears and let out a heart-piercing cry.

Although the woman's eyes were filled with pain deeper than the scar on her face, she did not stop inflicting pain on her daughter.

"You should have thought of the reasons why many people in the clan would expose you. You hate grandma for being a slave to tigers, but little Lian'er, to grandma, you are more important than them. Grandma wants to protect you. Only in this way can I get you a front line What about vitality?"

The woman opened her arms towards the lotus again, begging bitterly: "Can you forgive Grandma?"

Lianhua trembled violently and scolded angrily: "Go away! I don't believe you are my mother. My mother taught me since I was a child that mantras carry the upward force of life. Don't use it to do bad things, and don't use it for profit!"

"Little Lian'er, I used to be too pedantic. We have the supreme ability possessed by a few talents. Why use it to benefit the people? Don't you think that the people are like you and me, who have to endure life and death?" Is it not as good as the torture of death in exchange for a new life?"

The heart-wrenching questioning suppressed the resistance deep in Lianhua's soul. The pain of the people was the past that she could never look directly at.

The question is correct, as a defector, in what capacity can she stand on the moral high ground and make choices for the clansmen?
Perhaps, the clansmen also yearn for the outside world, for a superior status?
Lianhua's eyes gradually blurred, and the woman put her hand lightly on her shoulder, and said in a gentle voice coaxing a child: "My dear Lian'er, seeing you restraining yourself all the time and living in such pain, my mother is very distressed."

Just when the woman was about to hug the lotus tightly, the cold sword pierced between her palm and the shoulder of the lotus, blocking the contact between the two.

Lu Anru stuck the Vermilion Curse that had been removed earlier to the forehead of Lianhua, pushed Lianhua back a few steps, Ella and Rosa jumped over the table, surrounded Lu Anru and Lianhua, ready to attack at any time.

"Are you awake?"

Lu Anru pointed a sword at the woman's neck with one hand, turned her head and asked Lianhua.

Lianhua raised her hand and patted her head vigorously, closed her eyes fiercely, and barely said two words: "Let's go first."

"it is good."

Ella supported Lianhua, and the four of them backed up and approached the door on guard.

But it was strange that the woman only looked at them sadly and did not stop them.

After leaving Box A smoothly, Lu Anru took them to Grandpa Fei's ice cream shop.Many students would take a walk at night to buy ice cream, and if they really fought, they would be able to arrest someone and report it to the college.

Moreover, Grandpa Fei liked Lu Anru very much, and would sound the alarm immediately.

Sitting in the store, no one spoke first, Rosa was timid and feared to make Lianhua feel even more uncomfortable.Aila and Lu Anru reached a tacit agreement, let Lianhua take it easy before discussing.

Grandpa Fei saw that the four girls were not in the right condition, so he took the initiative to make four popular flavors of ice cream, and asked Huang Ying, who became a regular employee, to serve them to the table.And closed the store early to leave room for them to talk.

Huang Ying noticed that the three of them were all secretly looking at Lianhua, and because of their former classmates, she asked with concern: "What's wrong with Lianhua?"

Lu Anru had calculated thousands of times, but Huang Ying missed it.With Lianhua's character, it is best to be able to lead her to say what she thinks in her heart at once, otherwise she may never be able to pry her mouth open in the future.

Huang Ying pulled a chair beside Lianhua and waited for a long time, but Lianhua didn't answer, but her face became more and more gloomy.On the other hand, Lu Anru and the other three winked at her in an indescribably weird way.

Huang Ying didn't figure it out, put her hands on Lianhua's clenched fists out of her heart, and said: "If you encounter troubles, don't worry about it. You see, you have so many friends who care about you. They and I both care about you." I'd be more than happy to help you."

"Let your hands go."

The three characters were almost squeezed out from between the lotus teeth.

"What?" Huang Ying asked in surprise, thinking she had heard wrong.

Lu Anru got up quickly, strode between the two of them, pushed Huang Ying's hand away, pressed Lianhua's finger that was about to pinch the curse with her own hand, and whispered close to her ear to dissuade her.

"Lotus, there is no need to involve innocent people. Please maintain the original intention that the great elder taught you. A conjurer should have an original intention."

"Heh," Lianhua laughed strangely, and pushed away the face that was close to the ear, "Men really like your eloquent tongue."

Lu Anru didn't dare to slack off, raised his guard, and was ready to activate the limit state if something went wrong.After being tense for a long time, he relaxed when he caught the smile in Lianhua's eyes.

Sit back to your seat, cast a reassuring look at Ella and Rosa, and give Huang Ying a 'release order'.

"Xiao Huang, go get busy, let's have a private chat for a while, thank you."

Emphasize the word thank you, after all, it is completely out of good intentions.

Huang Ying nodded to Lu Anru, hugged the tray and left, her calf shaking non-stop.

With only his own people left, Lu Anru took advantage of Lianhua's better mood, and simply opened the pustules that left behind hidden dangers.

"Lianhua, we will keep everything about tonight secret. You can cast a curse on us. But you have to understand that we voluntarily let you curse out of emotion and have nothing to do with anything else."

After Lu Anru took the lead to finish his statement, Ella and Rosa showed extremely sincere eyes, looked at Lianhua and nodded their heads.

"That woman is not my grandmother."

Lianhua looked calmly at the three people sitting crowded together, and said calmly.

The two girlfriends looked at each other, but they hadn't made a statement yet. Rosa didn't know where the courage came from, and she promised honestly: "Lianhua, you don't need to hold on. We are your good friends. If there is anything, we will help you take care of it."

Listening to the sincere and deadly words, Lu Anru was particularly curious, did this silly kid go blind intermittently just now?Didn't you see that Huang Ying was almost clicked?

Reluctantly stroked his forehead, thinking hard to find a way to save Rosa.

Thinking, hearing Lianhua's unflinching retelling: "She's really not."

"That's right, that woman doesn't have the aura and mind of the great elder of the Zhaoji clan, she looks like a counterfeit product." Lu Anru catered to her, holding the lotus first before speaking.

Ella came to her senses and chimed in: "That's right, we met a counterfeit tonight, and we can still pretend,"

It was as if he didn't say two words, and the back of his hand was pressed by Lu Anru. Lu Anru came to the conclusion first: "It's a counterfeit, pretending to look like no one, and deliberately making a scar on his face to fool people, it's so ugly."

"Yes, that face is beyond description."

Ella sternly seconded.

The girlfriends sang together, no matter how stupid Rosa was, she could figure out what was going on, and said weakly, "Yes, I met an impostor tonight who couldn't see his face clearly."

When these words came out, it was like a boulder was pressing on Lu Anru's heart. Xiao Aya said the same thing and used it to paraphrase her parents' description.

It is very likely that Xiao Aya's parents recognized the Great Elder's appearance, but they did not find out, and used the powerful spell as an excuse.It can be seen from this that those who have done business with the Great Elder have all seen his true face.

Lu Anru glanced diagonally across from the corner of her eye, and Lianhua's expression became serious again, which proved that Lianhua and her had thought of one place.

"I'll go back and expose the woman's true colors."

Suddenly, Lianhua stood up and announced.

Lu Anru couldn't continue acting, and suggested from a friend's point of view: "Don't act impulsively, she is very strong, and we are not her opponent. When Xiaoming comes back, let him accompany you to find bad luck."

"I agree with An Ruru's suggestion, let's not fight unprepared battles. Besides, people need 300 appreciation cards for the next meeting. If we waste an opportunity, can we get 300 appreciation cards later?"

Ella wanted to stop Lianhua from the bottom of her heart, and she was very unwilling to help kill her mother.In her view, she should always respect her mother's choice.The so-called upright official can't judge housework, she doesn't like to judge Mother Lianhua's good or bad, but the mother and daughter have a gap to sit down and chat, there is no need to fight each other.

Mainly Mother Lotus has a saying that moved Ella very much. She cares about Lotus more than anyone else.

"You never believed me. I said that woman is not my grandmother. My grandmother is a person who would rather sacrifice me for the righteousness of the world."

Lianhua said angrily and raised her legs.

The tattoos representing Hades' rehabilitated prisoners appear again from the lotus legs, still very shocking.

The lotus hand dug the tattoo like a cat's claw, leaving three scratches oozing blood, and she said bitterly: "In your cognition, you must think that my grandma is going to assassinate the old dog Ningtian, for me and the old dog. The tribe ran away to buy time. I was unlucky, and was caught by the pursuers before I ran far. My mother failed in the assassination, and I was imprisoned in Hades."

Rosa and Ella were so naive, they all nodded yes.

"Not at all!"

The lotus nail pierced fiercely into the largest S mark in the tattoo, staring bloodshot and angry, coldly telling a dirty story about the past.

"The year the old dog led the soldiers to fight, our whole family fought hard, but he didn't care about the lives of the soldiers at all, and used the tactics of the sea of ​​people to forcefully break through our spell barrier. 30 fresh lives, they turned into wraiths, The previous national teacher ruled to wash my people with blood. We were defeated, and the old dog asked us to donate the most talented children in the clan and sign a contract of eternal slavery. Grandma said that we would not obey, the national teacher is here When my grandmother and the old dog were fighting for reason, they caught me with a black spell and escorted me back to the capital of Xia. The old dog threatened my grandmother with me, but my grandmother said to kill me. Do not bow to imperial power and money."

Lu Anru bit her lower lip with white teeth, deeply admired the elder's integrity, but as much as she admired her, she sympathized with her daughter Lianhua.

Just imagine the nine-year-old child waiting for his mother to come to rescue him, but waiting for his mother to give up her answer for the sake of the world and the people, how desperate Lianhua must be.

"Your mother will save you later."

Rosa couldn't help reminding.

Aila chimed in and said, "Yes, don't feel bad, she went to assassinate Emperor Xuantian just to save you."

"My aunt didn't want to save me! The Empress is very kind. She entrusted the leader of the dark faction to create a fake death and send me out of the palace. My aunt thought I was dead, so she came to assassinate me. Before I died, She has been using me to drag the old dog!"
