The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 168 Are you trying to trick me?

Lan Tian’s home in his previous life was also in [Neon City], a four-story house, but the location was a little remote. Now Hua Nanjin lives there.

If that house wasn't in the suburbs and Lan Yue hadn't taken a fancy to a house in the bustling city center, Huananjin wouldn't have to buy a new house.

In order to avoid Yan Lan, Lan Tian easily found Hua Nanjin's home and stayed there for a whole day.

The sun was shining brightly today, and Yan Lan briefly regained her appearance. Unfortunately, Lan Tian did not see it.

After Yan Lan's appearance was restored, she called and sent a message to Lan Tian, ​​but the call didn't go through and the message went unanswered.

She waited on the street for a whole day but Lan Tian didn't show up. Lan Yue also said she didn't know where he was.

Suspecting that Lan Yue was hiding something, Yan Lan asked her again using "Xia Yu's" face, but she still said she knew nothing.

Before leaving, Lan Tian specifically told her mother that if Xia Yu or Yan Lan asked about his whereabouts, she must say "I don't know".

Therefore, Lan Yue deliberately concealed her son's whereabouts from Yan Lan and "Xia Yu".

……

In the afternoon, Lan Yue and Hua Nanjin went to see a movie, and Lan Tian stayed alone at Hua Nanjin's house.

As soon as 24 hours passed, Yan Lan immediately used magic to rush to Lan Tian's location, but when she got there, she found that Lan Tian was no longer there.

Xia Yu calculated the time and knew that Yan Lan was about to recover her magic. When she returned to the hotel, she lied that she was sleepy and wanted to sleep, and immediately rushed over to see Lan Tian off.

However, she only cast a spell to make him return to the streets in the city center and didn't know where he would hide.

Yan Lan stood in the yard of Huananjin's house. She thought that blue sky would be waiting for her, but unexpectedly it was summer rain.

"Long time no see." Xia Yu walked towards Yan Lan and waved at her with a smile.

Gradually, the sun set, and Yan Lan turned into "Xia Yu" again, but Xia Yu herself remained the same.

Xia Yu witnessed Yan Lan's changes in the sunlight with his own eyes, and only then did he realize the fact that "she can change back to her own appearance in the sunlight."

The two Xia Yus stood face to face, one in a red dress and the other in a black dress.

In order to prove to Lan Tian that she was "Yan Lan", Yan Lan deliberately wore her favorite black dress, but he actually avoided her.

Without the sun's rays, Xia Yu still had her own face. Yan Lan was not surprised at all because she knew Xia Yu could change back at will.

However, did she escape from the underworld after knowing the truth?

"Where did you take Lan Tian?" Yan Lan didn't beat around the bush and asked Xia Yu directly.

Xia Yu glanced at Yan Lan who was pressing her face against his, and replied, "Hand over the antidote and get our faces back, and I'll tell you."

Change it back?
How can it be?

She also has to rely on this face to avoid the ghosts from the underworld who come to capture her, and to stay with Lan Tian for a long time in the mortal world!
"There is no such thing as an 'antidote', because I never thought of exchanging it with anyone else in the first place." Yan Lan pretended to be helpless, but smiled secretly with satisfaction in her heart.

"Are you trying to trick me?" Xia Yu said angrily.

"You snatched the medicine and drank it yourself. What does it have to do with me? However, since you like my appearance so much, I will lend it to you temporarily." After Yan Lan said this, she looked at Xia Yu with a "reluctant" look.

"Ha!" Xia Yu sneered, "You made up the lie that 'Meng Po wants to resign' just to trick me in? On the surface, you want me to work for Meng Po, but in fact, I am going to be punished for you."

"If you keep asking, I'll tell you everything." Yan Lan suddenly smiled, turned her back to Xia Yu, and continued, "It's embarrassing to talk about 'being punished', so I changed the excuse. But this has nothing to do with you 'stealing my medicine' or 'breaking into the underworld'."

"You asked the squirrel demon to send me that ancient book, right?" Xia Yu asked.

Yan Lan said without even turning her head, "What ancient book? Don't attribute any 'titles' to me." "So, you don't plan to hand over the antidote?" Xia Yu asked again.

"I've already said it before, I don't have such a thing as an 'antidote'. If you want it, you'll have to find a way yourself." Yan Lan replied.

"Don't you want to know where Lan Tian is?" Xia Yu threatened.

"No hurry." Yan Lan suddenly smiled and said to Xia Yu, "He can avoid me today and tomorrow. The day after tomorrow is Monday, so I can just go directly to his school."

"Oh." Xia Yu nodded and asked with a smile, "Is it against my face?"

"Then you don't have to worry about it." Yan Lan said with a proud smile.

Having said that, Xia Yu also understood what Yan Lan meant.

There was no point in saying more. Xia Yu raised his hand and cast a spell on Yan Lan, turning her into a strange woman.

In this way, there will be neither the situation of "two Xia Yu" nor the situation of "Yan Lan pestering Lan Tian".

"What are you doing?" Yan Lan asked Xia Yu angrily.

She hadn't noticed yet that her face had changed, but as she watched Xia Yu cast a spell on her face, she guessed something.

Xia Yu waved his right hand in the air, and a mirror appeared in front of Yan Lan. Through the mirror, she saw the ordinary and unfamiliar face in it.

Yan Lan's face turned blue with anger. She clenched her fists and angrily said to Xia Yu, "I'll give you one last chance. Change back to normal immediately."

"Change back?" Xia Yu pretended not to understand, with a puzzled look on his face: "Change back to your face or my face? I don't want you to continue using my face. If it changes back to your face, there will be a risk of 'two Yan Lans' appearing."

"Xia Yu..." Yan Lan's brows were raised with anger, and he almost squeezed out these two words from between his teeth.

"I know that you will have a chance to cast a spell every 24 hours." Xia Yu looked at Yan Lan with an "understanding" look and added, "Don't worry, I will wait until you change back to normal, and then change you back."

"Are you going to go against me?"

"I can't help it. If you have the antidote, we can switch back anytime."

"I told you, there is no antidote." Yan Lan repeated.

Hearing this, Xia Yu shrugged helplessly and replied: "Then there is no other way. I have to inconvenience you."

……

After Lan Tian returned to the street, he didn't dare go home or turn on his mobile phone.

He was planning to take shelter at his good brother's house, but he ran into Qin Mohan on the street.

Qin Mohan was holding a big birthday cake and was about to go home. She was so happy to meet the person she liked!
"Student Lan!" Qin Mohan called Lan Tian excitedly.

Lan Tian looked at the birthday cake in her hand and asked with a smile, "Is it your birthday?"

Qin Mohan shook her head and replied: "It's not me, it's my little brother."

"Oh..." Lan Tian responded.

"Why are you here?" Qin Mohan's face was filled with a smile that was hard to hide. She said, "I rarely have the chance to run into you on the street!"

After hearing this, Lan Tian replied somewhat awkwardly: "Just... just take a walk."

"Oh... do you have time?" Qin Mohan asked with a smile, and suddenly showed Lan Tian the birthday cake in her hand, "Do you want to come to my house together... to celebrate my little brother's birthday?"
