Chapter 247: Zhu Bajie Carrying His Wife
The chaos that had finally been quelled in Tokyo has returned, but the people who caused it are no longer there.
There was a drizzle in the sky, and a luxury car worth 300 million yen was shuttling through the rain. Its streamlined body blurred the light and shadow, like a beast escaping from a cage.
Lu Mingfei is a person who values his life very much. He never drove fast when he was young, even though his various qualities are more than enough for him to drive an F1 car.
The only exception was after rescuing Aze and Renata in Spain, when he drove the stolen Aston Martin to the extreme in order to escape the police and pursuers.
Later on, when I got married and started a family, I became even more cautious and never engaged in any dangerous driving behavior.
But now, the speed of Lamborghini has reached 200 kilometers per hour.
Japan is surrounded by the sea. If you want to see the sea, you can go directly to Tokyo Bay.
But there were too many cement barrels sunk there, making it one of the Sheqi Eight Clans' favorite places to dump corpses.
Since we're taking Eri to change her mood and forget about tonight's unpleasantness, we naturally can't go to a place full of water ghosts.
Moreover, since this is the first time I take Eri to see the sea in this time and space, I must go to a memorable place.
In the passenger seat, Eri's pale profile was reflected on the car window. Raindrops exploded and dissipated in her eyes, like a silent firework.
"Do you know where we are going to see the sea?"
Lu Mingfei freed one hand and grasped Eri's cold, helpless little hand. Without interlocking their fingers, he simply wrapped it tightly, as if he wanted to transfer all the warmth of his body to her.
At this time, they had left Tokyo and arrived in Yokohama. Eri's mood gradually recovered, and the influence of the clapper music on her seemed to dissipate.
But there was no smile on her face. She was just as cold and lifeless as always. It was obvious that the tremor that came from her soul could not dissipate quickly.
Hearing Lu Mingfei's voice and feeling the warmth from the back of his hand, Eri tilted her head slightly, her pupils reflecting the image of the boy driving with one hand.
Shaked his head gently.
She refused to speak again.
Lu Mingfei knew that the monster hidden deep in Eri's blood was awakened by the sound of the clapper because of his own mistake.
Although he didn't dare to show up, he still had a bad influence on his girl.
The best way to eliminate these effects is not medicine and time, but his company.
"We are going to Ehime Prefecture, which is a place full of memories." Lu Mingfei held her hand and said in a gentle voice:
“Have you seen Tokyo Love Story?”
Eri shook her head. She was introduced to electronic devices very late, and before she met her brother, she basically spent her time in bed.
I have to be injected with sedatives every day, so I don’t have much time to be awake, and naturally I don’t have time for entertainment.
It was Yuan Zhisheng who bought her a game console and taught her how to play games. It was also Yuan Zhisheng who bought her animation discs and comic books, slowly filling her world.
In the past, she was like a baby bird living in a bird's nest, needing her brother to constantly bring her spiritual food from the outside so that she could endure the loneliness that she didn't know how long it would last and whether she could hold on to the end.
And now, a young bird from outside has taken her out of the safe nest and is taking her to experience the real world firsthand.
It was very happy at the beginning, like an interesting adventure, but adventures always involve dangers.
Just like the sound of the clapper just now, the helplessness and fear that her body might spin out of control at any time seemed to swallow her up.
Fortunately, Sakura resolved the danger in time, just as he promised, and protected her in her arms with both hands.
So, although I was scared, it was actually okay.
She knew that someone would take her brother's place and protect her well.
"That was a very touching TV series." Lu Mingfei gently touched Eri's cold little hand with his thumb, his tone tinged with reminiscence.
In the sound of the clappers in the restaurant, he had another memory of "himself"——
A young man with a miserable look on his face sat upright in front of the TV, his nose feeling sore, his eyes filled with tears, and he bit his lips tightly, trying hard not to cry.
On TV, the finale of "Tokyo Love Story" was being broadcast. At 48 minutes, Kanji went to see Rika on time for the first time, but Rika had already left on the 33-minute train.
One loves too early, the other understands too late.
If he had not come into this world, perhaps Lu Mingfei's life would be like that of Nagao Kanji, who was wavering in love.
Instigated by the red-haired witch, he might confess his feelings to Chen Wenwen at the last gathering of the literature club while holding the dandelion that Chen Wenwen liked, and then become a pathetic background board, watching his favorite girl and the boy he hated most end up together, just like the Monkey King in A Chinese Odyssey, with his back like a dog.
When the feeling of humiliation overwhelms him, the red-haired witch who has orchestrated all this will appear as a savior angel to rescue him from the dire straits and give him the respect and dignity he needs most.
It would not take any effort to recruit him as a lackey, order him around at will, and he would never betray you.
And considering how much Angers values "Lu Mingfei", when the Japanese White King revives, he will definitely come to Japan.
As a result, he will inevitably come into contact with Eri and become closely entangled with her under the drive of fate.
Can a cautious and indecisive boy grasp the feelings that seem immature but are actually as heavy as Mount Tai?
"Rika and Wanzhi finally separated."
Lu Mingfei held Eri's gradually warming hand and told the story in the third person:
"For the sake of Wanzhi's happiness, Li Xiang decided to withdraw and left quietly. This time, she did not wait for Wanzhi again."
There was a long straight road ahead. He turned his head and looked at the girl who was listening to his story quietly.
He thought he would see a pair of puzzled eyes, but what he saw was the girl's peaceful sleeping face.
She got up early, had a crazy day of fun, and went through a short but extremely mentally exhausting battle. In the end, she was too sleepy to hold on and fell asleep.
It seems that she really doesn't like sad stories.
Lu Mingfei pursed his lips, smiled, gently squeezed her hand, and turned to look forward.
Raindrops splashed on the windshield, blurring the vision, and were swept away by the wipers the next moment.
Memories came flooding back like a tide. One night in the previous life, the theme song of Tokyo Love Story was playing on TV. Three years later, Rika ended this imperfect love with the last three "Dumplings" and a wave.
Eri cried in his arms and trembled all over, her tears soaking his shirt. He gently held the crying girl in his arms, stroked her soft hair, and comforted her softly, saying that it was just a story that was hard to let go, but ours was a perfect first love that lasted from beginning to end. He didn't know how many people would envy him if he told others about it.
Then the girl in his arms bit her lower lip, raised her misty eyes to look at him, and said that she wanted to go to Ehime Prefecture to see the most beautiful sunset.
He doesn't like sunsets, so he wants to take Eri to see the most beautiful sunrise.
The Lamborghini drew a cobalt blue streak of light on the highway, and raindrops exploded into tiny crystals on the carbon fiber body, and were quickly turned into mist by the speed soaring to 220 kilometers per hour.
The world in the rearview mirror is not a farewell that is getting farther and farther away, but unpleasant memories that are gradually lost in the rain and fog.
…
Under the cover of night, the four countries lost all the noise of the day and became silent.
The roar of the sports car pierced the desolate night sky and finally stopped roaring in a small town in the southwest.
Lu Mingfei parked the car in an open-air parking lot and looked at the girl who was sleeping while holding his hand tightly, wondering whether to wake her up.
The evening breeze in June is still a little cool, especially since this place is close to the sea. With the car window open, you can hear the sound of the tide and feel the coolness seeping into your body with the evening breeze.
Lu Mingfei wanted to pull his hand away and took off his suit jacket to cover Huili.
However, the moment he tried to pull his hand away, Eri grabbed it tightly, and then her beautiful eyes looked at him closely with a little fear, as if she was worried that she would be left behind.
Lu Mingfei smiled and lowered the car window, letting her listen to the sound of the rushing water.
Eri's eyes lit up, and the remaining sleepiness disappeared in the blink of an eye: "Have we reached the beach yet?"
She had just taken a nap and had a dream. The content of the dream was not the continuation of the proposal concert, but she was nestled in Sakura's arms, crying very sadly, and he was stroking her back and singing softly to cheer her up.
Listening to the gentle song, she gradually no longer felt afraid or sad.
The monster hidden in the heart is like a rotten leaf. Under the influence of music, it returns to calm.
Then she could speak again.
"The sea is beyond the mountains."
Lu Mingfei squeezed her hand and successfully pulled it away this time. He opened the car door and walked around to the other side, helped Eri, whose body was still a little limp after sleeping all the way, out of the car, then took off his suit jacket and draped it over her shoulders.
They left in such a hurry that they didn't have time to change their clothes, so the girl was still wearing her beautiful long dress.
Although the mixed-blood physique allowed the two to ignore the cold wind, they were still not very comfortable.
Lu Mingfei held Eri's hand, his eyes flickered on and off, and a warm current continued to spread with their tightly clasped hands as the center.
"It's so warm." Eiry looked down at the little hand held in Lu Mingfei's palm, thought for a moment, and changed to a more comfortable position.
She interlocked her scallion-white fingers between Lu Mingfei's fingers, and the heat spread even faster. In an instant, she no longer felt cold and felt as warm as if she was soaking in a hot spring.
"Haha, this is called a warm man." Lu Mingfei smiled and took her to the town not far away:
"I am only warm to you. I am a limited edition warm man."
Eri didn't know what a warm man meant, but when she heard that it was a limited edition that was only warm to her, she was very happy and leaned towards him:
"Sakura, it's dark out there, are we going to go hiking?"
After Eri fell asleep, Lu Mingfei slowed down the car. It was almost dawn, and all the lights in Umezuji Town were gone. Only the chirping of insects in the fields could be heard faintly.
Eri has a strong bloodline, but she's not actually very courageous, and even the staff members pretending to be monsters can scare her, not to mention that the style of this street is still stuck in the 1950s.
There was no light, no pedestrians, only the howling of cold wind. The blue sign hanging in front of the Japanese-style wooden house fluttered in the wind, as if a few monsters such as zombies and evil spirits might appear at any time.
Therefore, Eri was clinging to Lu Mingfei at this moment, holding his hand, like a newbie who was new to horror games but loved to play.
Seeing this, Lu Mingfei snapped his fingers, and a flame quietly appeared on the tip of his index finger.
The flame was only a tiny cluster, but it illuminated the area within a two-meter radius as bright as day. In an instant, the fear in Eri's heart disappeared, and she curiously wanted to reach out and touch the flame that appeared out of thin air at Lu Mingfei's fingertips and was not affected by the evening breeze at all.
"Be careful of the burns." Lu Mingfei did not stop him because the temperature of the fire was very low.
He didn't know what the principle behind this was, but he just thought about it and did it.
Eri grew up in Japan. The farthest place she has been to is a shrine in the mountains of Kobe. She also needs her brother to accompany her every time she goes out, and sometimes she has to hide from people. It can be said that she has not seen much of the world.
So after getting a light source, even though the town looked gloomy and uninteresting, she still wandered around with great interest, and even wanted to push open other people's shop doors.
Lu Mingfei quickly stopped her. They came here to travel and see the sea, not to be thieves.
Several families had dogs at home. Perhaps they heard the noise and smelled the stranger, so they started barking from a long distance away, and the sound could be heard far away in the silent night.
In order to avoid being mistaken for a dog thief, Lu Mingfei was just about to shake his body to scare the dogs. However, after he took a few steps forward, the dogs whimpered and their voices became quieter, as if they had realized they had found the wrong target. They shrank back into the cages with their tails between their legs and dared not make a sound.
Lu Mingfei was a little speechless, but he didn't care too much and continued to walk deeper into the town with Eiry.
It was already midnight and the mountain tram had long stopped operating, but Lu Mingfei didn't care. He took Eiry on the tram and said mysteriously to the girl, "Watch me perform a magic trick."
Then Eri saw him snap his fingers, and the unmanned tram suddenly made a strange noise, and then it started to work shakily.
The gears meshed with the tracks, making a sound like the Sheriff of Gotham, and slowly climbed up the mountain.
The mountain tram had no windows and was swaying slightly in the evening breeze. Eri felt like she was riding a roller coaster, and a real roller coaster without a seat belt. She held Lu Mingfei's hand and didn't dare to let go, and she was almost squeezed into his arms.
It was just like a dream, except I didn’t shed any tears.
The car stopped at the Dizang Temple on the top of the mountain. Lu Mingfei took Hui Liyi out of the car and walked slowly along the path that the miners used to go into the mountains to mine decades ago.
Eri was wearing her newly bought Jimmy Choo high heels, and she was a little unsteady as she walked on the uneven road. She originally wanted to support Lu Mingfei to prevent her from falling, but as soon as she put her hand on his shoulder, he squatted down, put his arm around her legs and carried her on his back.
Their chests were pressed against their backs, with no gap between them.
Eri's long black hair fell down, and the evening breeze brushed against Lu Mingfei's cheeks gently. The scent of shampoo and the smell of the sea mixed together, giving a Head & Shoulders feeling.
"Is it heavy?" she asked in a low voice.
There was still some distance to the top of the mountain, and she was worried that she would be heavier than usual after eating a lot yesterday.
"It's very light. You need to eat more." Lu Mingfei weighed it. He originally wanted to tease Eri like weighing a piglet, but he felt a soft and elastic push on her back. He felt that it was enough and there was no need to make it bigger.
In order to avoid being distracted, he changed the subject: "Are you hungry? If you are, I'll catch some fish for you later."
"I'm not hungry." Eri shook her head and gently hooked her arm around the boy's neck, her fair face pressed against his neck. Before her voice had time to be carried away by the wind by 30%, it had already reached his ears.
The breath hit my ears, wet and hot.
Lu Mingfei couldn't help but whistle happily.
"What a strange melody." Eri had never heard of this song before, so she blinked and asked him what it was.
The young man smirked and pretended to be a gentleman:
"Ask Zhu Ganglie to carry Gao Cuilan on his back."
