The deathly silence made the darkness in the room seem even darker.
The darkness became darker, but the oil lamp in the center of the table seemed brighter.
Lu Ran kept seeing the battle four hundred years ago in the light. He suddenly wanted to know why Xu Fu's mother fought at that time and what was she thinking in her heart at that time. .
Looking around again, he saw twelve cautious black shadows, twelve shadows from the accident four hundred years ago. They were hiding here, relying on that glimmer of light to survive until now.
And now, at this moment, they seemed to see an unexpected person, transformed into another unexpected flame. This flame was a little familiar, a little scary, and a little moving.
Lu Ran also turned to look at the flame, and at the fairy with red hair and a flash of crimson in his black pupils.
It was Xu Fu.
I don’t know what Liu Ping’er said later that made her suddenly furious after hearing it.
Without thinking, Lu Ran went up and wanted to hug Xu Fu tightly, trapping her hands so that she could not draw the sword.
But Xu Fu's movements were much faster than him. As soon as he came out, there were two cold lights, but they had no target. They just made two cuts in the void.
Lu Ran jumped into the air, and at the same time he saw Mandao Yuan, who was opposite Xu Fu, drawing a circle on his hand, and a semicircular light slowly spilled out, just on top of Xu Fu's two sword lights. , the sword light trembled for a few breaths, and gradually lost its original edge and sharpness.
"Fairy Yufu, please calm down. This formation is extremely fragile. If you use the fairy energy even a little, you can't guarantee the safety of everyone." Mandao Yuan said with a kind face.
Xu Fu snorted, but in the blink of an eye she saw Lu Ran falling at her feet, and asked with concern: "Brother Lu Ran, why are you here?"
"It's not that your sword light is too sharp, I... I can't resist it." Lu Ran could only open his eyes and talk nonsense. After getting up, he was afraid that Xu Fu would have another attack, and said: "You... don't be too angry, just listen to the fairy Let’s finish talking this time.”
Xu Fu shook her head, looked around, and said calmly: "I don't think so. Since it is something that you don't need to believe, I won't bother this immortal to waste any more time. Today's banquet will end here." Well, thank you for your hospitality, thank you for telling me about my mother, brother Lu Ran, let's say goodbye."
"Ah?" Lu Ran was even more confused. He looked at Xu Fu, then Huaihuang, Liu Ping'er and the other immortals.
The faces of Liu Ping'er and several immortals were suddenly covered with a layer of frost. Only Huaihuang's face remained kind, he smiled and said: "That's right, this story is too long and boring for you young people, Liu Shi The mother was also a little tired after talking, so it was just right to leave here. However, Fairy Yu Fu and Brother Lu should not pay too much attention to it and indulge in it. We also followed the teacher's instructions, sought truth from facts, and told some truths. In addition, we also I hope you two can come here often in the future. After all, Brother Lu is a fellow disciple of mine and we have a close relationship. Furthermore, if you need anything these days, please feel free to contact us. No matter what the time, we will do our best. help."
After saying that, he nodded to Man Dao Yuan beside him. Man Dao Yuan immediately stood up and said to Xu Fu and Lu Ran: "In that case, I will send you two out."
Since Huaihuang also said so, although Lu Ran felt that this farewell was a bit too abrupt and there were still many questions to be answered, he couldn't stay alone, so he had to stand up and thank the immortals for Xu Fu. , looked around, but did not see the door.
"Follow me." Man Daoyuan saw through Lu Ran's thoughts, pointed in front of Lu Ran with his right hand, and drew a semicircle with his left hand almost simultaneously. A faint light flashed, and Lu Ran opened a circle when he saw the sealed place. Through the arch, you walked out to the banquet hall you just entered, but that door disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye as Madoka Manshima walked out.
Man Daoyuan smiled all the way and sent the two of them back the way they came. After walking out of the foyer of the small building, the carriage that brought them there was already waiting. Xu Fu stepped on it with a quick stride, while Lu Ran hesitated, wanting to say something to the round-headed man. He wanted to say something to the immortal whom he liked very much, but he couldn't say it.
Man Daoyuan smiled at Lu Ran and leaned over, "Brother Lu, do you have anything to say?"
"Ah, no, no, I was just wondering if I forgot something."
"Ahem." Two deliberate coughs from Xu Fu came from inside the carriage.
"Thank you for bothering me so much today." Lu Ran had no choice but to give him an embarrassed smile in return, and turned around to get on the carriage.
For a moment, he felt that Mandao Yuan seemed to be closer to him.
Mandao Yuanyuan's face had already come closer, and the distance between the two of them was unbelievably close.
"Sister, I'm telling you secretly, it would be best if you don't participate in the Great Jiao."
After Fu Er said this, Mandao Yuan told the coachman as if nothing was wrong. It was dark and he should drive more carefully.
Lu Ran didn't know if he heard the words clearly, but he was stunned for a moment, and then like a frightened cat, he got into the car with a red face.
Mandao Yuan blinked her two big round eyes, and quickly hid the smile on her face. She raised her hands and drew a semicircle on both sides. The faint light lit up, and a visible but invisible round arch appeared. in front of.
After taking two steps in, she returned to the secret formation. She turned around and checked carefully to confirm that it was correct. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and returned to her seat, drinking by herself.
"Are you leaving?" Liu Ping'er returned to her old woman appearance and was lying at the table, eating a bowl of noodles.
"Well, don't worry, you'll get back the same way you came here." Madoka Manshima was a little uninterested.
"Why did Xu Fu suddenly leave? If she left, she wouldn't go to Jueying Island to report us. Although she is indeed the fairy child of the Queen of Heaven, she was indeed raised by people from the Huanjiao." She looked like a child. Zheng Zhi was nibbling on a piece of watermelon that was longer than others. "Fortunately, as soon as she came to Jueying City, I followed her with my treasure."
"I don't think that little girl looks like the kind of indiscriminate person. And don't you think that she is more suitable to be our introduction than Lu Ran?" Huaihuang looked full at this time. He looked so satisfied that he almost fell asleep on the dining table.
"Indeed, we still have to be nice to this little junior uncle." Luo Bai of the Education Bureau, who had been silent all this time, said.
"I've already told him quietly." Mandao Yuan patted his chubby chest.
"It's best to get him outside Jueying City in the next few days." Another Immortal Lingtu who had hardly spoken all night also said.
In the formation, it was still dark, and the table full of food seemed to be inexhaustible. It was still the same as when Lu Ran and the others sat down. The small lamp in the center of the table would always be on, but no one noticed that the light In the middle, within the heart of the flame, for a moment, a white moth flew over.
When the white moth met the fire, it turned into a black shadow, and silently passed through this little bit of light, spreading into this four-hundred-year-long darkness.
