Chapter 1
It was February. The western sunset enveloped the entire cold winter sky. The quiet red glow was like a layer of oil painting, giving different shades of color to passers-by.
Passers-by full of smiles.
It was the third day of the Lunar New Year, a great time to shop at the temple night market. In the small town of Luo Cheng, there were at least seven temple fairs taking place.
“Lu Shu, I want to eat hawthorn candy, which contains walnuts,” said a girl, while pulling up the sleeves of the young man in front of her. His hands were directed to a small cart by the side of the road. Through its glass windows, one could see that the hawthorn candy inside was sparkling like crystal.
The girl was young and about 10 years old. He was wearing a white jacket, which was clean and pure.
The 17-year-old Lu Shu looked at the wagon reluctantly, cleared his throat and said to the girl, "Lu Xiaoyu! Didn't I tell you when I bought you a jacket? If you want a down jacket, we'll have to spend less, or I won't have enough money to pay for third-year school fees next semester! "
"Lu Shu, you've changed!" Lu Xiaoyu said calmly.
Lu Shu's face darkened, "Who did you learn this from, watching less soap operas?"
He hesitated for a moment, before sighing and walking over to the owner who sold the hawthorn candy, "Boss, what is the price of walnuts?"
"5 dollars. Come on, buy one for your sister," The owner smiled kindly. He knew first who really wanted to eat sweets.
5 Dollars .. Very expensive. Lu Shu took out a crumpled 10-dollar bill from his pocket, handed it to the owner and got 5 dollars back as a change.
The candy now belonged to Lu Xiaoyu. One candy bar consists of 7 sweets. Lu Xiaoyu, after receiving the stick, said, "I'll eat 5 and save for you!"
Lu Shu smiled and patted Lu Xiaoyu on the head, "Only one will do."
At this young age, the girl was only at Lu Shu's waist level. Lu Shu's arms would reach his head well.
"OK," Lu Xiaoyu said. Her pale face and red lips in winter gave her the impression of a beautiful glass doll.
At this moment, several young people walked past them, discussing intensely about something strange, "Did you guys see the news last night? It's about this old man whose soul was visible before he died. This news was finally deleted."
Lu Shu looked at Lu Xiaoyu who was enjoying sweets while thinking that there had been an increase in the number of strange events recently. There was also news that a child was emitting a blue light from his palm, and a large man was lifting a 2,000-pound weight with just his hand.
It was unclear if this news was false or not as they were removed soon after and the commotion also lessened.
There are also some videos, for example, showing a person who would cause a streetlight to turn off wherever he walked. All of these events seem very strange and supernatural.
Video of a woman mysteriously disappearing into the air.
And a video was taken by an observer, who claimed to have seen someone spitting and sucking clouds at the top of a mountain.
What is common to all of them is that all of these videos eventually disappear.
Lu Shu looked at the sky and he felt that something was going to happen but did not know what was going to happen.
Does the world really have mysterious and supernatural occurrences? After living for 17 years, this incident only began to occur recently. What's wrong?
It feels like life is taking a big swing!
“Let's go, let's watch some acrobatics.” Lu Shu pulled out a pair of tickets from his pocket, “There are still 20 minutes, it seems that this year's temple fair is specifically inviting this acrobatic team, there are even actions involving fire.”
At this point, Lu Xiaoyu had spent 6 candies, and satisfactorily handed the cane and the only candy left to Lu Shu, "Enak!"
“No use,” Lu Shu berating.
…
There is indeed quite a bit of work put into acrobatics performance this year, and it seems to hint at some magic elements. The organizers of the temple exhibition built an elaborate stage, and there was a large crowd underneath. It was only then that Lu Shu felt the atmosphere of the Lunar New Year.
Finally, there were some changes towards the end of the show. A young man climbed onto the stage, and as soon as the acting began, his entire body burned.
Lu Shu was surprised. Heavens, is there really no problem with such a performance? Isn't he going to die?
"Lu Shu Lu Shu, let me sit on your shoulders to watch the show!" Lu Xiaoyu exclaimed.
Lu Shu said helplessly, "I can't lift you up."
Lu Shu looked rather thin, and his face was pale. It was not due to a sudden illness, but it was his innate nature, being born rather weak and weak. Once, he bought a supplement pill for a period of time, costing him a lot of money and manpower, but in the end, it did not have a significant effect.
Still weak as usual. . .
At the very least this meant that his weakness was not due to his kidneys, it was at least some sort of entertainment for himself.
Lu Shu squeezed forward with Lu Xiaoyu as standing closer would give them a clearer view.
At this moment, the player on the stage extinguished the flames in the blink of an eye. It seemed like the flames were completely under his control.
Lu Shu only realized that the price increase to 20 dollars at this year's temple fair was really worth it, being able to see acrobatics and magic.
The man on the stage had a flame engulfing his body for a while, and in the next moment, it would disappear. The red red flame carried a small blue color, and it was extremely beautiful.
Towards the end, flames erupted from the man's palm and flew towards the audience. However, the moment the flames would reach the audience, they all disappeared into the air.
Applause and cheers erupted from throughout the venue and the player bowed before leaving the stage.
One person is silent. The bright red and dark red flames approached Lu Shu, and as the flame drew closer, Lu Shu felt, for a moment, that his heart had an erratic movement. That feeling ... It feels like a reconciliation between two parties after forever. . .
What was that? Lu Shu had some questions. This feeling felt so real, so real that he had no doubts about it.
"Lu Shu Lu Shu, I want to learn this! You brought me to her to learn acrobatics!" Lu Xiaoyu urged Lu Shu before running backstage.
"You're just a little girl, why learn acrobatics? All these actions are their secrets and way of life, why do they teach you! After all, we don't have any money for the study fee!" Lu Shu said with annoyance. However, he wanted to see that player as well, and he wanted him to perform once more if possible. Lu Shu wanted to know exactly what had happened to him earlier.
He followed Lu Xiaoyu backstage and hit the 5 men with weapons, wearing black. A needle-like object pierced the player's neck, and within two seconds, the player fell to the floor, motionless.
The other viewer did not dare to say a word. The aura of this group of people was too strong. Their bodies that were hidden behind black coats were definitely huge and contained apocalyptic power.
Lu Shu was confused. What happened This scene is a bit wrong!
Lu Xiaoyu didn't really care, "What gave you the right to do this to her!"
To Lu Shu, not peeing out of fear with this series of events would be impressive to an ordinary person, but this fine Lu Xiaoyu was always right, after all, and seeing her prospective employer on the floor made her even more unhappy .
Lu Shu's face turned green and was tempted to run away with Lu Xiaoyu on the spot. Surprisingly, one of the men in black jacket spoke calmly, "This temple exhibition does not apply to the fire department's emergency approval for his actions. He violated safety guidelines for fire safety and we have to bring him back to investigate.
I'm a fool to believe your bullshit!
Lu Shu simply did not believe their words and even if he were to oppose safety, it would be handled by the organizers of the temple fair!
And which fire safety company uses a tranquiliser arrow to take someone down?
There's trouble! Big deal!
