Dragon Clan: Thought So Far

A gust of wind blew up the boats that were pushed to the other side and capsized in pieces. The river surface with floating candlelight seemed to dim all of a sudden. Finally, the wooden boat belonging to Eri, which was obviously stronger than the other boats, was also overturned. flipped.

Eriyi had a regretful expression on her face. The middle-aged man selling the boat just now told her that there is a saying in this area, which is to write wishes on river lanterns. The farther the river lantern floats, the more likely it is that the wish will come true. .

Just like some places like to write the names of their sweethearts on the Kongming lanterns. When the lanterns fly into the sky, they will be seen by the gods in the sky. The old man with a white beard who is in charge of marriage will hold the two people's names together by the red thread according to the names on the lanterns.

Most men disdain to do such petty things, or are a little shy to express the delicate feelings hidden in their hearts. Boys of this era still have dreams of martial arts in their hearts. How can a swordsman be stumbled over such a trivial matter as the love between a son and his daughter?

Girls will also write the names of their loved ones on the river lanterns. In fact, although their thoughts are ups and downs, they are very simple. They just want to be with the people around them forever...

"What did you write on that?" Lu Mingfei asked curiously. He actually had some answers in his mind, but he still wanted to ask.

"I hope you can always be by my side." Eriki wrinkled her nose.

"There's no need to feel sorry. Didn't the boss say that the farther the boat travels, the more likely it is that wishes will come true? Look, our boats have all reached the middle of the water, and no one can go further than us." Lu Mingfei looked upstream to the river. Waves of water flowed downstream, and the wind ruffled his forehead. His eyes were as deep as the abyss at night.

They leaned against the guardrail and watched for a while, and then the crowd gradually dispersed. Rows of jeeps were parked outside the sand embankment. The men carrying fishing gear were noisy. They each found a place to sit on the small bench, made a nest, loaded the bait, and Take out the rod and wait quietly for the greedy river fish to take the bait at night.

Eryi stretched her neck and looked at the fishing guys who had not made any movement for a long time. It didn't take long for her to feel a little bored. She yawned and rubbed her eyes, frowning slightly and arching her shoulders on Lu Mingfei's shoulders.

"Can they catch fish?" The little girl probably didn't really pay attention to the boat lights. She blinked her big eyes and looked at Lu Mingfei to ask the question.

Lu Mingfei shrugged, "I guess." He said.

When this area was not developed before, you could indeed catch a lot of fish. When Lu Mingfei was in high school, he and Chen Wenwen went to the beach to collect dandelions for bookmarks and specimens. The river was densely packed with big fish probing their mouths. When eating small bugs on the water, they leave ripples.

But in recent years, upstream industrial parks have begun to move into factories. Industrial wastewater emissions have become serious, and the number of fish has also begun to decrease. However, the number of fishermen has increased, and now it has become a situation where there are more wolves and less meat.

"It's boring." Eriki said, "Miss Sakura once caught such a big black sea bream in the Sumida River. My brother brought it back and made me fish soup. It was delicious."

As she spoke, she used one hand to indicate the size of the fish, from her left hand side to Lu Mingfei's right hand side. Looking at it this way, it was probably a super-evolved mutated black sea bream, nearly two meters long and weighing at least three hundred kilograms. Sakura probably didn't catch it, but jumped into the water and used Wia to catch it. Tie them up tightly and throw them ashore.

Lu Mingfei didn't take it seriously and listened to the story. He found two maltose candies with the word "sweet silk" written on them in Hui Liyi's bag, tore them open and sucked them in his mouth, as if holding an unlit cigarette. .

"No fish in China's rivers can grow that big," he said. "Foreigners say that we are born to be gluttons and can't wait for them to grow up before putting them on the dinner table."

This is not bragging, carp is definitely a frequent visitor in this river, but it is rare to see someone catch one weighing more than two kilograms.

But the largest individual discovered in the Great Lakes in the past two years even reached 1.2 meters and weighed more than 50 kilograms. It was a bit scary when swimming densely in the water. Lu Mingfei once caught a net in Lake Michigan when he was sailing with his younger brother from the Dragon Blood Society, but he couldn't eat it at all. The earthy smell was mixed with the smell of rust, and his internal organs were all black. Finally, he threw it all into the incinerator. Carry out harmless treatment.

While chatting, Lu Mingfei held Eri Yi's hand and walked endlessly on the sand embankment. As they walked, they turned to the sidewalk.

Brand-new solar street lights stand at the intersection of the sand embankment and the long street extending to the CBD area. The street light billboards read city slogans such as "Hefei welcomes you."

The sidewalk is at this intersection. The ground is paved with carved and hollowed-out burnt bricks. On both sides are rectangular wooden flower beds that separate the long street from the sand embankment. Small trees of this kind are planted in the flower beds. The sound of vehicles passing behind the small trees on one side is heard. Howling, the wind is also howling behind the small tree on the other side, facing the empty sand embankment at night.

The shadows of the trees swayed, and so did the girl's hair.

The alternating street lamps cast flowing light and shadow on Lu Mingfei and Huiliyi. Huiliyi had the fragrance of white sandalwood, and Lu Mingfei had the fragrance of beech wood.

When Eriki thought about it, she felt that she and the boy next to her who had become a bit chatty after returning to the city were like two plants with legs wandering around.

It's inexplicably funny.

Such a peaceful night should have been the last night before the holidays when I was in high school many years ago. Boys and girls in school uniforms carrying huge schoolbags walked through such a peaceful light, each holding the fondest memories of the teenagers at that time. Talk about the heavy worries.

As he was talking, Lu Mingfei talked about Shilan Middle School and Chen Wenwen, and said that he had a crush on the girl who liked to wear white skirts a long time ago, but now he only remembered her plain white cotton skirt and her white ankles that were so slender that he could hold them.

Eriyi listened with her ears erect, and said in her heart, "Oh, so Lu Mingfei likes white cotton skirts. As for the slender ankles... Eriyi is really confident in herself."

Lu Mingfei used the light cast from the top of the street lamp to look at the shadows of the two people on the floor tiles, which were constantly lengthening and shortening and cuddling together. In the shadows, Eriyi still looked exquisite and protruding even though she was covered in a sweater.

He caught a glimpse of the white skin on the girl's delicate cheeks from the corner of his eye, as if reflecting light at night.

"It's a bit late. Aunt Su lives in a community on the other side of the city. Let's wait two days before visiting her." Lu Mingfei rolled up his sleeves and tapped the dial. He still wore the Vacheron Constantin Tour de I'lle Watch worth three million dollars on his wrist. When they left, the princess said that they should avoid using electronic devices on the way. A quartz watch that can always be calibrated to the second is very necessary for Lu Mingfei, so she gave him this expensive toy.

It is said that it is the most difficult to enjoy the favor of a beauty, but fortunately Lu Mingfei feels that he will not live long. At most, he will work as a cow and a horse for Zero in the next life to repay the favor of this life.

"Okay." Eri's expression was serious, "I want to eat crayfish."

Lu Mingfei was stunned.

"I want to eat crayfish." Eri repeated again.

"Are you the god in charge of crayfish in ancient Greece?" Lu Mingfei was helpless and took out his mobile phone from his pocket to find the phone number for ordering takeout.

EVA is still on his side for now, so Lu Mingfei and Eri have been living comfortably for the past few months, but the academy will find something wrong sooner or later. The board of directors will always find a way to overcome the underlying logic of this computer, and then the whole world will become Lu Mingfei's enemy.

Maybe a year later, he and Eri will have to survive in the wilderness, and I don't know if the field knowledge learned from Bear Grylls will be useful, such as the protein content of caterpillars is seven times that of beef.

But I guess Eri can't eat caterpillars, maybe I can give her the fish I caught from the river?

Lu Mingfei's thoughts flew away as he thought about it.

"There was also a god of crayfish in ancient Greece? I thought there was only Athena and the Golden Saint of Burning Hope." Eri's eyes lit up, and she obviously felt that she had learned new knowledge from Lu Mingfei.

"I don't know, maybe there is." Lu Mingfei shrugged, ordered spicy crayfish and garlic crayfish on the takeaway platform, and sent a message to the auntie who always stayed up until midnight at the supermarket downstairs from his uncle's house, asking her to freeze a bottle of beer for him and he would come down to get it.

With crayfish and beer in hand, the little monster didn't have much time to continue strolling outside. She hugged Lu Mingfei's arm and told him about the things she encountered when she was a teenager, those sad, happy, nonsensical, and even humiliating things. She listened to everything very seriously and with some relish.

It seemed that in this way she had a slight sense of participation in Lu Mingfei's youth that she had missed.

——

Holding a five-pound bag of crayfish in the food box in his left hand, and holding a copy of Brave to the End of the World under his armpit with his right hand, Lu Mingfei kicked open the door of his uncle's house after fingerprint recognition. Eri jumped back to the room to turn on the air conditioner, and then jumped to change into white lace pajamas and threw all the messy things on the dining table onto the chair.

"My brother never let me eat spicy food before, and even the amount of wasabi was strictly limited." Eri had some resentment towards Yuan Zhisheng, but if the tortoise knew that the girl had now gotten rid of the curse in her blood, she would still laugh happily.

"In the past, my uncle was the only one who made money for our family. We lived a tight life and we didn't eat crayfish very much." Lu Mingfei said, "The first time was at my senior brother's house. Aunt Su saw that I couldn't peel the shrimp shells, so she helped me peel them. While peeling, she praised me for being a good child like Zihang from their family. She also told me to go to my senior brother's house often in the future and that children should move around more."

Eriyi put on disposable gloves and giggled when she heard Lu Mingfei say that. Her eyes sparkled and she sat obediently opposite Lu Mingfei like a ragdoll cat.

Perhaps in her mind, although Lu Mingfei is indeed the most perfect man in the world, he should never be associated with the word obedient.

Over the years, Lu Mingfei has eaten crayfish from Hefei to Tianjin, from Tianjin to the Three Gorges, from the Three Gorges to Shanghai, and from all over the world. In short, domestic crayfish actually taste the same, nothing more than heavy oil and heavy color, with some vegetables such as cucumbers underneath to relieve greasiness.

As for Chicago…

The crayfish was not eaten much, but the dragon and blue dragon followed Caesar, the young man, to eat and drink, and a lot of it went into Lu Mingfei's stomach.

The screen window was open, and Lu Mingfei peeled crayfish for Eriyi while looking out the window. In the past, he also liked to look in that direction on the rooftop. There was the CBD in the distance, and the lights gathered, as if the tide was rushing towards him.

"You eat too." Eriyi leaned forward carefully, twisted the shrimp meat with two fingers and put it into Lu Mingfei's mouth. Lu Mingfei suddenly saw a touch of whiteness and attractive ravines on the spring mountain, and his heart was slightly moved.

He stepped on the beer box and drank one glass after another. After drinking, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, held it in his mouth, hesitated for a while, and put it back.

"Let's go to the old site of Huanyu Group tomorrow. Senior sister said that senior brother's father might have left some clues. If we want to find the box, we need a clue." Lu Mingfei said while drinking. Eriyi's mouth was stained with red oil, and her forehead was sweating from the spiciness.

As expected, crayfish is a killer of ladies. No matter if you are a Hollywood porn star or the Queen of Thailand, as long as you sit in a food stall and order crayfish, you have to put down your airs and show your heroic side.

"Okay, I'll go with you." Eriyi said.

Lu Mingfei did not refuse. The girl's bloodline advantage may even be better than his. Not only is her brain useful, but she is also very fierce when she beats people. If there is an accident, she can also take care of it.

They drank, ate crayfish and watched TV until the early morning. After Lu Mingfei cleaned up the scene, he took a shower in the bathroom outside, put on pajamas, and pushed the door into the room, only to find Eriyi still bathing.

She still has many habits that have not changed. For example, taking a bath is actually a very important thing for Eri to take seriously. After settling down, she will spend nearly an hour on this matter.

Lu Mingfei sat in front of the computer desk and looked for news materials from five years ago. Chu Zihang's father had an accident in Odin's Nibelungen in 2006. Maybe some useful clues can be found in the news at that time.

Unfortunately, Nono is not here. Senior Sister and Constantine stayed in the academy and will help Lu Mingfei to complete a task in Oslo next.

And Lu Mingfei also needs some people who can provide him with information in the academy.

The light and shadow of the computer screen flowed on Lu Mingfei's face. There were a few moments when his eyes were filled with fatigue and weakness.

His QQ was still hanging in the lower right corner of the window. The top of the chat list was a relaxed bear avatar, but it was not flashing, but black and white.

Some things you should do even if you are exhausted and want to collapse, otherwise you will regret it and want to kill yourself.

Xia Mi said he could find her, as long as he could get the box, as long as he could...

But all this seemed like a dream far away in the horizon, who knew what the end of the dream was.

Perhaps after defeating the BOSS, they got the box but found that there was nothing in it that Lu Mingfei wanted, but only a legendary title of "Super Dragon Slayer". What should they do?

At this time, the sound of water in the bathroom behind him stopped, and a few minutes later the door was pushed open from the inside.

Lu Mingfei turned his head far away and saw the girl wrapped in a bath towel standing naked in the diffuse white steam, with her straight long hair without any decoration falling like a waterfall.

Lu Mingfei was stunned. No matter how many times he looked at it, he still looked so stunned. Everything about the girl was perfect, like the brushstrokes left by God in the world, straight and slender calves, white and lonely ankles, delicate collarbones and exquisite figure.

Eri tilted her head and looked up and down at the guy who was staring at her with her dark red eyes. After a few seconds, a blush appeared on her face and she burst into laughter.

"Help me blow my hair." Eri said.

She sat down obediently beside Lu Mingfei with her back to him.

The bath towel was not big enough, just enough to cover her chest, and a large area of ​​jade-like smooth and white skin was exposed from behind.

Lu Mingfei didn't say anything, picked up the hair dryer on the side and turned on the hot air to help the girl dry her red hair.

"Are you thinking about Sister Xia Mi?" Eri asked suddenly.

Lu Mingfei was silent for two seconds, "Yeah." He said, "Sometimes I worry that if we don't succeed, she will never come back."

"No, Sakura can do everything." Eri is very confident in Lu Mingfei, and even Lu Mingfei himself didn't know that he was such an awesome guy.

Being able to do everything in the world...

It sounds really cool.

The whirring sound of the hair dryer made the room seem quiet. After drying her hair, Eri sat on the bed and wrapped herself in a quilt, and insisted that Lu Mingfei get into the quilt as well.

"By the way, what song did you sing by the river just now?"

"Hitori shou." Eri only showed her little face and blinked, "In Chinese, it means 'get used to loneliness'."

"It sounds good."

"But you can't sing or talk." Eri raised a finger in front of her lips, "They are all dead."

Lu Mingfei knew that she meant that everyone who heard her singing was dead.

Eri's bloodline probably began to go out of control when she was about ten years old, and Herzog immediately locked her in a cage like a canary.

She hasn't sung since she was ten years old.

"Not now, you are completely cured." He touched Eri's face, and Eri gently rubbed her cheek against the man's palm.

"Can you sing it again?"

"Do you like it?"

"Yeah, Eri's voice is very nice."

Eri looked up and tilted her head to look at Lu Mingfei. Her face was bathed in the soft moonlight that seeped through the window screen. There was a faint light flowing in her pupils. Her long eyelashes were thick and woven, and when they trembled slightly, they looked like black bird feathers.

The wind outside the window made the leaves rustle. The night and the autumn wind from the river were like a natural moat that separated every group of people in this world. Every window of the gray-white and gray-black old buildings in the community was lit with a lonely light.

"Okay." Eri said.

The room was so quiet that only the girl's singing could be heard. Lu Mingfei put a large geography book on his knees and closed his eyes to listen to everything around him.

He thought it would be better to stay like this for a longer time...

"private home" (I hear your voice on the street corner)

"あなたの声のするstreet corner" (I feel like I'm back home)

"Winter raindrops hit you" (Let the winter raindrops hit you)

"あなたの之音をさがすのよ" (Searching for your footsteps)

"あなたの帰る家は" (You forgot me on the street corner)

…

"The tone is like a long road in life." Lu Mingfei did not open his eyes.

He used to like Teresa Teng very much and also listened to the songs sung by Teresa Teng.

"It's the Chinese version of 'Get used to being lonely'. Nakajima Miyuki-senpai is the godmother of the Japanese music industry. Many songs in your country have borrowed her tunes." Eriki said with lowered eyes.

Lu Mingfei was shocked to realize that Eli Yi had actually been exposed to the outside world for so long, so long that she even knew about the long journey of life and the music scene.

He slowly opened his eyes and froze.

The quilt had been lifted, and the naked girl was slowly crawling toward him on her hands and knees like a kitten.

The girl's body is as beautiful as a painting, graceful and convex, slender and slender, yet as soft as a baby.

Lu Mingfei turned his face away, not looking at Eryi's body or her eyes, and fumbled to pull the quilt over to cover that beautiful body.

Eliyi let out a faint laugh, kicked off the quilt, and held Lu Mingfei's face towards her with her hands.

The girl squinted her eyes slightly, and her pupils could be seen shimmering in the slits of her eyes. She was hazy and confused. She clearly looked like a child, but she was so charming that Lu Mingfei's heart beat wildly.

"Sister Xia Mi said what you did in the room, and I also checked it on the Internet." Eryi rubbed her cheek against Lu Mingfei's cheek, "I can also do the same thing as Sakura, what is said online Those are the things couples should do..."

She opened her dark red eyes wide, and those clear pupils reflected Lu Mingfei's eyes.

Lu Mingfei's breathing was rapid.

He thought that Eriyi might have misunderstood something. He didn't miss Xia Mi because of this kind of thing, but...

Before he had time to reply, Eriyi was already completely nestled in his arms. The girl's body fragrance was cold, like sandalwood blooming in winter.

He smelled the scent of Eriki's hair, and his heart beat faster and faster. Suddenly, Lu Mingfei's body froze.

Because a slender and soft palm reached along the waist and grasped the handle of the sharp blade that had not been unsheathed for a long time.

"Sakura thinks Eriki is a child, so she doesn't want to be with Eriki..." Eriki suddenly sealed Lu Mingfei's lips, and the strong girl's fragrance hit her face.

A sweet and greasy hum came from Eriyi's nasal cavity, and under the dim light, the girl's pupils were dimly lit with confusion.

Lu Mingfei finally couldn't hold it back, and groped for the graceful Chunshan with one hand, while the other hand gently stroked Eriyi's slender and smooth waist.

He and Eriki looked at each other, their eyes so hot that they almost melted the girl.

"I'm a big girl now, Sakura, don't worry... I, I can do it..." Eriki whispered after her lips parted. She was still timid, but she also wanted Sakura to not miss Sister Xia Mi so much.

Missing someone is very painful. She has thought about it for eleven years and knows this feeling.

Facing those blazing eyes at this moment, Hui Liyi blushed with embarrassment, and her earlobes turned slightly pink.

Lu Mingfei gasped and slowly hugged Eliyi, feeling the tenderness of the girl's skin on every inch of his body.

He suddenly felt the trembling of the girl in his arms, and his heart became cold. (End of chapter)
