Edge of Pure Land

Chapter 145 First Date

Before going out, Lu Fuji went to the bedroom next door to take a look at his little girl. He confirmed that she was still sleeping soundly and would not wake up for a while, so he bought her a lot of snacks and drinks using the takeout software until the food was placed on the table. After everything was piled up, I was ready to go out.

From the beginning to the end, Xue Lian was sitting in the living room with her chin on her head, looking at his meticulous arrangements without saying a word, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "I didn't expect you to be quite good at coaxing children."

She also changed into clothes for going out, wearing a sun hat to provide shade, a dark blue plaid shirt with a black camisole, a pair of slender white legs under the denim shorts, and a pair of white sneakers. Something like a nun.

 She is clearly Xiao Yujie.

Lu Fuji admired her daily attire, closed the door, shrugged and said, "When I was a kid, my parents used to coax me like this when they went on a business trip."

 It’s just that after my parents passed away, it never happened again.

Xuelian was silent for a moment, then handed him a bag of exquisitely packaged clothes, pouting her red lips and saying, "Change into it, you can't wear a hospital gown when going out."

 The new world also maintains the habits of the 21st century. Nowadays, whatever you want can be purchased online, and it is transported by drone, without the need for couriers, which is extremely efficient.

Lu Fuji put on a white shirt and black slim-fitting pants, and then he realized something: "Wait a minute, why are we all wearing summer clothes? Isn't it cold?"

Xuelian said calmly: "You will know when you step out."

They went out together and took the elevator downstairs. The moment they opened the unit door, the blazing sunshine fell from the sky, and the high temperature that hit their faces made their cheeks burn.

 “Holy shit, it’s out of season?”

Lu Fuji was startled: "No, it's Longque."

Xuelian held up a parasol and covered his face: "This is the weather-changing effect brought about by Longque's Soul Blade. Linhai is a northern city, and the average temperature in December is minus ten degrees below zero." degrees, but the temperature right now is thirty-eight degrees.”

Lu Fuji fell into deep thought: "Why am I not a fire attribute?"

Xuelian glanced at him: "What?"

Lu Fuji thought for a moment and said seriously: "Isn't Longque going to die soon? After he sends it, I can inherit his soul blade and play with it by changing the weather every day. This way, when I go out every day, I can have the beauty of showing my thighs. Girls can watch it.”

Xuelian rolled her eyes and said: "It is illegal to change the weather at will, unless it is a special situation. What's more, Longque is the ninth crown realm, so it can have such an effect."

Lu Fuji smiled awkwardly and said, "Ah, really?"

Xuelian snorted coldly.

This little guy is just a bit mean-mouthed.

 At this time, Longque was not dead yet, so he was very worried.

If Longque really died, it would be very uncomfortable.

 “Let’s go.”

“Oh, why do you want to hold an umbrella for me? I am a man.”

 “It doesn’t look good when you’re tanned.”

 “That’s called a healthy complexion.”

 “Shut up and listen to me.”

They walked out of the green community all the way. There were old people and children playing in the garden. Radio reports from the disaster area were playing on their mobile phones. The uncle at the security booth was drowsy.

In fact, this world is relatively peaceful, because there are no wars between countries. Except for the five unlucky big cities near the Celestial God site, there are not many dangers in other places of death. Evolutionaries and ordinary people get along in harmony.

 In recent decades, Linhai has been the most noisy place in the world.

It happened that Lu Fujiu, the unlucky one, caught up with him. Otherwise, with his current status as an officer, he would have eight days of leave every month, so he could enjoy life.

 I just didn’t expect that troubles would keep happening.

 He is as busy as a dog.

Xuelian listened to his complaints and said calmly: "I suggest you go to the military headquarters intranet to take a look at your current contribution points, accumulated merits, and your military rank."

Lu Buer took out his cell phone suspiciously, glanced at his military rank, and was shocked for a moment: "Damn it, 45,600 merit points, am I not dazzled? Contribution list is 9,990 Nine, what an auspicious number! Wait a minute, my military rank..."

 The rank of Major!

Xuelian said lightly: "This is because of your recent outstanding contributions and the reward judged by the Holy Intelligence Body, you were directly promoted from corporal to major. In fact, when you were in the second level, you should have been promoted to the captain level, but you The promotion was too fast and I didn’t have time to go through the review.”

Lu Fuji's back was straightened, and he felt like he was carrying wind when he walked: "I see, people will call me Major Lu from now on? It sounds quite cool."

He carefully browsed through the major's benefits and suddenly said: "Hey, after the major changes his job, he can directly get a house in the city center. A house in Linhai city center, calculated according to the inflation five hundred years ago, I have to start working tomorrow morning, without food or drink..."

 “Look at your potential.”

Xuelian curled her lips: "You are all evolved now."

Lu Fuji shrugged: "But my biggest dream before was to buy a house of my own in the city center. Renting a house was very troublesome. At that time, I couldn't afford to rent a good house. Every time I lived, the place was a little bit... Problem, the unscrupulous landlord would also deduct the deposit. Later, I simply stopped renting a house, covered myself with a quilt under the bridge, and treated everyone right."

Xuelian was stunned: "I'm sorry."

I think back then, the first generation of holy monarchs once advised her in his later years: "We high-ranking people shoulder the mission of this world. The most important thing is not to forget our roots. This person, once he climbs higher, he will I can’t see the suffering underneath.”

 So the most common words that the monarch said were:

People must look back.

 “There is no need to be so polite between us.”

Lu Fuji took her to the bustling street, which was bustling with traffic and people: "Speaking of which, what did you do five hundred years ago?"

Xuelian didn’t even think about it: “A medical student.”

 “Where are your parents?”

 “They are also doctors.”

 “Oh, the ancestral doctor.”

"Yes, so my family education is very strict. My parents are also cocoon breakers. They have dedicated their lives to this world and passed this responsibility on to me."

 The two of them chatted along the way and bought milk tea on the street. The first stop was the amusement park.

 Because it was New Year's Eve, there were a lot of people queuing up, most of them couples.

They waited in line for half an hour, and the first thing they played was the roller coaster. In fact, for evolutionists, this kind of acceleration game is no longer exciting.

But Lu Fuji was very happy, because he had not gone out to relax even once since he got sick. When the girl's hair was blown by the wind, it brushed his cheek in thousands of ways, and it seemed that the cold fragrance was also blown away. It stayed, vaguely tugging at his heartstrings.

Xuelian's expression has always been cold, but her eyes are getting brighter and brighter, like a stream illuminated by the morning light. You will fall deeply into it at a glance.

 The roller coaster rises and falls on the track.

 The screams of passers-by can be heard endlessly, the clouds shadow the sky, and the sky spins.

When the roller coaster stopped, Xuelian's eyes fell on the bumper car park a hundred meters away, and she raised her green and delicate fingers: "Lu Fuji, I want to play with that."

 Her eyes were very serious and pulsating with expectation.

 “No way, children don’t play with this.”

"I do not care."

 “Okay, don’t blame me for killing you.”

 “Let’s try it.”

Five minutes later, the two people drove bumper cars and collided in the venue. At first they were fighting each other, but later they found that bullying other children was more interesting.

So the two of them cooperated and ran rampant in the field until they knocked out all the naughty children, and then fled in a hurry without looking back.

There are artificially planted purple cherry trees in the amusement park. After this kind of cherry blossoms have been mutated, they can bloom for a whole year. The pink petals are fluttering in the wind, like snow.

 Snow lotus was running among the cherry blossoms, holding on to a tree and panting. “No way, are you tired now?”

Lu Fuji held the parasol for her and rolled his eyes.

 Women are trouble.

 At first she wanted to hold a sun umbrella when she went out.

Later on, it became Lu Buer who held an umbrella for her.

 “I’m not good at physical sports.”

With a smile dancing in Xuelian's beautiful eyes, she bit the straw of her milk tea and said vaguely: "Actually, without the power of magic, I am just an ordinary person."

Shika Fuji was stunned: "No rank?"

Xuelian shook her head: "No, all my power comes from the gift of the Kabbalah Tree of Life... Well, this is actually the teacher who gave me her power."

Lu Fuji thought thoughtfully: "Although, divine magic is really powerful. I once saw that the divine magic performed by the high priest can directly travel through time and space."

"Divine magic is something created through imagination, but it is not an aimless wish. Instead, it requires precise calculation and design by the high priest to make perfect use of the power of divine magic. For example, a dead tree can become a spring, such as making a wish. These cherry blossoms turn into real snow."

Xuelian explained softly: "This requires the high priest to understand the nature of the world. Therefore, although divine magic is powerful, it is not without cost. The most serious price is that divine magic will make people lose their humanity and become people who only obey the rules. machine."

Lu Fuji was stunned for a moment: "Is this what the high priest is like?"

Xuelian hummed: "In the two hundred years since the high priest inherited the divine power, she has been emotionless most of the time. The more abundant the divine power, the more indifferent her emotions. Only when she is weak will she show off her emotions. Reveal your true self. In a while, the high priest will hold a ceremony to worship the heaven again, and I will be there to help, so I may be busy for a while."

 Lu Fuji was silent for a moment: "It should be."

He was about to speak but stopped, suddenly wanting to ask something.

Xuelian looked at him deeply, pursed her red lips, and said softly: "Do you want to ask, will I also become a high priest in the future?"

  Lu Fuji admitted.

“Yes, my feelings will become more and more indifferent.”

 “Will you forget me?”

 “No, but I will think you are insignificant.”

 “That’s it…”

 “But I will resist.”

  Lu Fuji raised his eyes and met her bright eyes.

Xuelian smiled slightly: "Teacher believes that human emotions are the greatest power in the world. Guess why our high priest is different? Because she remembers the teachings given to her by the first generation of holy monarchs. She put that Keeping the memories in my heart, I resisted the power of the gods and used my strong willpower to control the divine power and maintain a part of myself.”

 “This created today’s holy high priest, Lotus.”

She said seriously: "I will also remember your memories. No matter how hard the divine power suppresses my humanity, I will work hard to resist it."

At this moment, the wind blew her long, ink-dyed hair.

 The smile at the corners of her eyes and brows is like cherry blossoms.

 It will be blown everywhere by the wind.

Lu Fuji looked at her blankly.

Xuelian suddenly realized that saying this seemed a bit explicit.

 The cold expression returned again.

 “Let’s go and ride the Ferris wheel.”

  She cleared her throat: "There are aquariums and cinemas to go to later."

 “Yes, ma’am.”

 Lu Fujio said casually: "I feel that you are more active than me."

Xuelian was silent for a moment.

  She didn’t say that this was also her first date.

 This is also the only opportunity in this life to be myself.

Without saying anything else, Lu Fuji held her hand and sat on the Ferris wheel. He rose to the highest point in the center of the city and saw the bright sun in the sky, and the sky was clear and cloudless.

 The girl under the sun has a pure and flawless face.

 Hair on the forehead is fluttering in the wind.

 The huge city was reflected in his pupils, and his eyelashes trembled slightly.

"What are you looking at?"

 Lu Fuji thought she was attracted by some scenery.

"this."

Xuelian's eyes became solemn and she looked at an advertisement in the cabin: "Are the kidnappers now so arrogant that they openly post advertisements?"

Lu Fuji turned his head and looked at it, feeling his scalp numb: "This is obviously an advertisement for a love hotel, not a kidnapper! Look clearly!"

Xuelian said seriously: "Then why are there torture instruments?"

 She saw handcuffs and whips, and some instruments of torture she had never heard of.

 “That’s not a torture instrument, that’s fun.”

 Lu Fuji covered his face: "Couples nowadays like this, don't you know? This thing was also very common five hundred years ago. There are more tricks now than before."

 “How can humans have such perverted beliefs!”

Xuelian said suspiciously: "My parents never taught me anything."

 Well, this is a young lady from a famous family.

 Maybe the tutor is too good, so there is something lacking in this aspect.

Lu Fuji directly searched the Internet, and then handed her the phone.

Xue Lian watched for five minutes, a hint of embarrassment appeared on her pretty face.

 “Shameless, perverted!”

She said coldly: "You don't want to go to that kind of place."

Lu Fuji said seriously: "I don't have that perverted hobby. I'll just buy you a pair of white silk stockings to wear when I go to the mall later. I'll be satisfied easily."

Xuelian rolled her eyes again.

 At this time, there was a roaring sound overhead.

 A plane flew across the sky.

Xuelian’s eyes turned cold when she saw the plane.

  Lu Fuji felt the murderous look in her eyes.

"Who is that?"

 “People from headquarters.”
