"Is there anything you can add to me about the Forbidden Demon Sect?"
Looking up, he saw Zhuo Yan adding soup to the hot pot instead of Dragon Lady Slime. Lu Yu motioned for her to sit down.
Zhuo Yan did not dare to sit where Sera was just now, so he carefully moved a chair.
"There are just some rumors that even I can't confirm."
Lu Yu said "Oh", took out a spare bowl and asked, "Didn't you eat?"
Zhuo Yan shook her head subconsciously, and then she saw Lu Yu put the bowl in front of her and put on the chopsticks... This made her pressure increase sharply.
Dinner with a glutton = stealing food.
Lu Yu prepared a lot of ingredients, enough for three people to eat. Sera probably wouldn't be back for a while, so he waved his hand and asked Xiao An to call over the mist demon who was causing trouble for Sigrid.
Compared with Zhuo Xiang's restraint, Wu Yao is much more at ease. After learning the technique of shabu-shabu, the speed of meat penetration made Zhuo Xiang stunned. Her mouth has not stopped since she sat down!
Zhuo Yan saw the mist demon snatching a piece of plump mutton from Lu Yu's chopsticks with her own eyes. She thought she could not finish the meal. However, the expected rage did not appear. Lu Yu just stood up with a smile, and took him with him shortly after leaving.
I came back with another batch of ingredients that I had prepared myself, and then I served the mist demon pamperingly.
If he hadn't known that the mist demon was a masterpiece of spirit body-changing, Zhuo Xiang would have imagined that she was Lu Yu's daughter...
"Eat, talk while eating." Lu Yu gave Zhuo Yan a piece of mutton with chopsticks, "It doesn't matter even if it's a rumor. Our people didn't pay much attention to these noisy insects before."
Some flattered Zhuoyan couldn't resist the temptation and took a bite with the dipping sauce that Lu Yu had helped prepare. He was thinking about how to say it in the wonderful aftertaste in his mouth.
"Master should know that the original founders of the Forbidden Demon Sect were a group of people from a foreign continent who came to Mera due to a shipwreck and were unable to return home, right?"
Lu Yu saw that the mist demon was rinsing the hairy belly for too long, so he quickly gave a demonstration and then fed it into her mouth: "Oh, I still have some impressions of this. They once received the support of the Solon royal family to find that distant hometown, but in the end
Returned in vain."
"There are rumors that not all of the founders of the Forbidden Demon Sect died, but some are still secretly active. It is very likely that he is behind the scenes controlling the actions of the Forbidden Demon Sect."
"If the founders are from a long-lived race, that doesn't seem like a big deal?"
"This has to be paired with another one I started with..."
The nightmare wanted to speak but stopped.
Lu Yu saw through the reason why Zhuoyan was stuck: "That friend of yours?"
As if he had figured out something, Zhuo Yan no longer hesitated and said, "His name is Fitznold."
The corners of Lu Yu's mouth raised, but his hand in shabu-shabu didn't stop: "Continue."
"Master should remember that I said that Wuye, the fifth seat of the Five-leaf Clover, that demon fox, has a young and beautiful face, but the skin on other parts of the body is wrinkled like an old man..."
In an instant, the corpse floating in the sea appeared in Lu Yu's mind. During that ceremony, the corpse he saw was almost consistent with Zhuo Xiang's description.
"Fitznold speculates that their deformed bodies are probably related to the power they control." Zhuo Xiang said, "In the limited number of contacts, the senior officials of the Forbidden Demon Sect were unwilling to show their true colors. The robes,
Masks are readily available, and in comparison, ordinary believers of the Forbidden Demon Sect appear to be normal."
The mist demon burped, Lu Yu's thoughts were interrupted, but he didn't take it seriously. He smiled and took out a piece of paper to help the mist demon wipe away the sauce from the corner of his mouth.
Although Zhuo Xiang was used to gluttons having an extraordinarily gentle side, the contrast with the ferocious demeanor in the rumors was so great that she was still a little stunned.
Even if he can eat people, it doesn't matter, he is too gentle to the people of Chenxi... people can't help but want to get close to him and follow him!
"You don't seem to have eaten much. Do you want me to help you wash it?"
Zhuo Xiang quickly shook his head and started cooking rice quickly.
When a glutton lets you enjoy a treat, it's best to show respect for the food right away.
Looking at the hot smoke, Zhuo Xiang was suddenly curious: "Master Sera is not coming back?"
Lu Yu glanced outside the door: "Maybe she ate too much today and is not hungry yet. That's how she is."
…
…
In the green shade collar, in the conference room of the green shade association's seaside base, everyone in attendance looked solemn.
During the three-day negotiation with Chenxi Ling on the purchase of magic crystals, the bargaining session and the words thrown out by Green Shade Ling were all dismantled in detail by the other party. Even if there were slight discrepancies in the specific data, there was no doubt that... Chenxi
The leader has a vague understanding of the mineral stocks that have been mined by the Green Shade Leader.
There are nails, the level is unknown, and the degree of harm is also unknown.
Tanya understood the situation and immediately asked "Corinna" to start pulling out the nails. She did not think that the Dawn Territory had a strong messenger system. Their population and size determined that they could only settle in a corner and did not have the ability to establish a large-scale organization.
The power of huge information organizations.
Then, the answer is ready to come out...either this nail has an owner, or it is a rat who is profiting from the information!
After the meeting, all the capable people of the Green Shade Association were gearing up for Millai's passionate speech. They were completely loyal to Tanya and could not wait to bring the evildoers who harmed the Green Shade Territory to justice.
There was an extra guest in the conference room. Hong Hong cut the apple and indicated with his eyes whether Mi Lai wanted to eat some, but Mi Lai declined.
"It's hard to catch, right?" Chi Hong asked.
"Of course it's hard to catch. From the information, I can probably guess that it's a very low-level little mouse. He may be working in the mining area. He has some information about mineral transportation and obtained fuzzy data through calculations. Therefore, Chenxi Ling refutes our price increase.
Sometimes the means's words are precise, and sometimes they are full of errors and omissions, and it feels like a hit or miss."
Miley paused and then changed the topic: "Only in terms of negotiating with the Dawn Leader, I think Her Majesty Tanya is a bigger problem than the mouse."
Chihong suddenly frowned. If Corinna hadn't been loyal, she would definitely put the burning fire blade against Corinna's heart.
"Do you think there is something wrong with what I said? But the fact is, don't you think Her Majesty Tanya is not strong enough towards the lord named Lulu? Milai sighed, "Although it is a barter trade, we have obtained
There are all kinds of strange materials, rare fruits, and even some forbidden magic materials, but... I still feel that we have suffered a big loss. Her Majesty Tanya should set a stronger tone instead of
Let the treasurers tie their hands."
Chihong also sighed, but she would never mention Tanya's shortcomings in front of outsiders. She could understand the powerlessness of a loyal subordinate who could not bear the loss of his territory, so he patted her gently.
shoulders.
"Take your time, you will understand. There are too many regrets between Your Majesty and Lulu, and she... thinks it can be remedied."
"If there is no hope, you should remind her." Milai said fiercely, "You are the one who has been following her for the longest time!"
Chihong responded with silence.
Even Your Majesty has character flaws... She is not what outsiders seem to be, but how can we make it clear?
…
…
There were stoves burning in the four corners, a tea table in the center, and a small dining cart filled with pastries and food. Tanya and Lulu sat comfortably on soft chairs, admiring the falling snow and the earth illuminated by the moonlight.
Located on the observation deck on the top floor of the castle, Lulu and Tanya had looked into the distance in this state countless times, eating pastries and being in a daze.
They were still young at that time, and there were not many entertainment projects in their spare time after studying. When they suddenly stopped talking while chatting, they would lie on the guardrail together, enjoying this moment without being troubled by fatigue and worries.
.
Sitting on the chair, Lulu indeed recalled that equally wonderful time for her... It was the most comfortable time before she became the Crimson Witch.
She still remembered that it was here that she told Tanya that he would follow her for the rest of her life.
And Tanya smiled and fed her a piece of cake, laughing and playing... They were all showing their true feelings at that time, right?
It's a pity that we can never go back to the past... Fortunately, we can't go back to the past.
The poisonous fog of Sharman made Lulu realize that the master she once wanted to follow, want to be recognized and praised by her was different from her, and she didn't care about this emotion.
I once trusted her so much that even the Sandman Poison Mist silently endured for her, making the name Crimson Witch forever associated with thousands of innocent dead in Mera, becoming a reviled synonym for evil.
Tanya has arranged every detail of this nostalgic journey in such detail. The gadgets that can remind her of memories are always at the right angle, inadvertently cutting into her line of sight. Tanya has arranged it so carefully.
Thoughtful and detailed... But even so, the figures of Sera and Lu Yu still appear in her memories of the past.
Tanya was describing what happened about ten years ago. Lulu, who had just arrived at the mansion at that time, would be banned from using magic when it snowed. She would have snowball fights with herself and her servants. The petite and thin Lulu always failed to throw away
After firing a few shells, I was out of breath.
Hearing this, Lulu couldn't help but think, if it were Sera and Lu Yu, how would they treat her then?
If it were Sera, seeing that she was exhausted, she would have pretended to have the same lack of strength, and then let the snowball she threw easily hit her, and they would have fallen together in the snow, right?
If both people are very close...she might hug herself?
Sera ten years ago... Just thinking about it, Lulu couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
If it were Lu Yu...he would probably go crazy playing this kind of competition. I had heard him say before that gun ball was the most popular game in his world, and snowball was also a ball. It would definitely make his blood boil. At that time, I
If you are relatively thin, you will definitely be bullied miserably. The snowballs will come like raindrops, and you have no choice but to hold your head and squat on the defensive.
However, if it was Lu Yu, after it was over, he would already hold his hand and say with a smile: "The weather is so cold, I will make you something to warm up."
Then she didn't have to do anything. She just had to sit at the table and see the very young him busy in the kitchen... just like the father and mother who worked in the kitchen with the only meager ingredients.
Prepare your own delicious food.
He was like this. When he was tired, he asked if he wanted to eat something delicious. When he felt uncomfortable, he asked if he wanted to eat some special dishes to calm down. When he was happy, he suggested having something to celebrate together... It was a miracle that he was not fed into a chubby shape. No wonder.
She will grow taller inadvertently, and Lu Yu really cares about whether she eats well or not.
Tanya admired the gradually unstoppable smile on Lulu's face with satisfaction.
"People are always nostalgic. You are the same as before... you have really not changed."
A stinky radish, a big rabbit, it doesn't matter if they catch up from behind, the most difficult childhood for Lulu, except for her dead parents, the rest is in her hands.
He said that he brainwashed Lulu, isn't that what Carrot and Rabbit did?
What a morning lord, Lulu is just a child in their eyes. During the entire negotiation, Sigrid and Dusk never asked her for instructions once, not even to symbolically maintain their authority.
"I'm leaving the day after tomorrow."
Lulu's words interrupted Tanya's thoughts.
"So soon?" She was a little surprised, "But we haven't finished talking yet, haven't we?"
"So I hope there will be some clues tomorrow. This will be the beginning of long-term trade of magic crystals for Green Shade and Dawn. Maybe more goodwill should be released, and we will have more trade cooperation, especially in minerals.
." Lulu said, "We will continue to meet each other in the future, can't we set a better tone?"
Lulu twisted a piece of Tanya's favorite preserved fruit and put it on her plate.
Tanya was stunned. After many years, Lulu still clearly remembered what she liked!
"It concerns the interests of the Green Shade Territory. I can't make too many concessions. A long-term trade agreement is impossible. Crystals will definitely become the new currency of this era. We can't provide you with such a huge amount every time.
The crystal must be decided in person." Tanya added, "This time can be an exception."
Lulu knew what Tanya really wanted, and readily agreed: "Okay, one order at a time. I hope that next time, you can see the potential of the Dawn Territory and make more concessions."
"My room is still available, right?" Lulu said suddenly, "It's a good time to rest here tonight after a long time."
Visiting the Green Shade Territory, Lulu has been living with Sigrid and others in a manor specially designed to welcome guests. This is the first time she has lived back to her former "home". Although Tanya had proposed, she did not get it.
Feedback, but now...
After Lulu was picked up by a group of familiar servants, Tanya sat on the viewing platform, chewing the cakes slowly.
Finally, she called the servant.
"Tell the financial officer to give Chenxi Ling some small discounts within an acceptable range... just say that I am very optimistic about the prospects of trade with Chenxi Ling."
Lying on the bed that seemed to transport her back to her childhood, Lulu looked at the dome, then at the snowflakes outside the window, and suddenly sat up.
"Although Tanya's cooking skills are good, she always feels that something is missing...Sela and the others, what will they have for dinner tonight?"
