Redemption from Douluo

"elder brother....."

In his sleep, Lu Mingfei heard a childish voice calling his name.

When Lu Mingfei opened his eyes, he found that the surroundings were no longer at home, but on rows of benches.He saw a boy standing next to him. He was about thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a pure black evening dress, with radiance flowing on his young face.Lu Mingfei didn't know why such an older child showed the silence and sadness on his face that said "I have lived for thousands of years". He just looked at himself, as if waiting for him to wake up.

I don't know why, even though it was the first time I met him, I felt extremely familiar.

Lu Mingfei stood up and pulled the boy to sit down.The two of them just sat in silence and looked ahead. Time passed slowly, like two people watching the sea.

"Exchange?" the boy asked softly.

"Exchange for what?" Lu Mingfei didn't understand what he meant.

"Exchange?" the boy asked again.

"What to exchange for? I have no money...nothing but my body."

"Then you still refused?" The boy turned his head, his golden pupils filled with flame-like light, like a mirror reflecting fire.

Lu Mingfei was shocked by this sudden scene and couldn't help but stand up.

"A lot of your power has been stolen. Don't get close to that man anymore, he will take your power away." The boy said sadly, as if he was caring about Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei didn't know what he was talking about, what stolen power. If he really had this thing, how could he not know about it.

"you....."

Just when he wanted to ask more questions, his whole body trembled suddenly, as if he was on the verge of despair, and a huge force came out of his body.Suddenly everything in front of him disappeared, and then he appeared in a wasteland. What came into view in front of him was a dead giant tree. The branches extended in all directions, forming a dense network. The sky was iron blue mixed with flames. s color.

The wasteland is covered with dead bones, and a giant black beast is rising from the depths of the pile of bones. Its wings are covered with skeletons. After opening its huge membrane wings, it looks up to the sky and spits out black flames.

"dragon!"

Lu Mingfei was suddenly startled.

The object in front of him suddenly disappeared, and his sight was still in his small room, with his cousin Lu Mingze, who was as fat as a pig, sleeping next to him.

As if nothing happened before, Lu Mingfei couldn't help but take a deep breath to calm down his wildly beating heart.

"Is it a dream?"

He murmured in confusion.

If it is a dream, this dream is too real.

He was a little unsure, but he felt that the boy was real.

After this experience, Lu Mingfei no longer wanted to sleep. He stood up, covered himself with a coat, sneaked to the door, opened the door quietly, and slipped out quietly.He walked along the stairs to the top of the building, and saw that the doorway was blocked by iron railings, but a small space was left, enough for him to slip through.

Every child fantasizes about having a secret base when they are young, and Lu Mingfei is no exception.After discovering this place, Lu Mingfei would come here after school for a long time, quietly staring at the sunset in a daze until the sun went down.

This place can calm his lonely heart, and it is also one of the few places where he can stay apart from Internet cafes and home.

Looking at the bright moonlight, Lu Mingfei felt the loneliness of admiring the moon alone.

........

"A box of discounted bagged milk, half a pound of Cantonese sausage, and the new issue of "Novel Painting" that Narusawa asked for. Come back quickly after buying it and pick the celery on the table for me! And go to the communication room to have a look Do you have a letter from the United States? Are you still playing games? You don’t care about your own affairs at all. If no one admits you, can you pass the exam? What’s the use of spending so much money on you? "

In the afternoon, his aunt's voice entered his mind like a magic sound filling his ears.

Since he sneaked out to watch the moon last night and came back early today to catch up on his sleep, he was really sleepy now.Lu Mingfei felt that his consciousness was dazed, but he still agreed repeatedly and stood up while suppressing the fatigue on his body.

It was already afternoon, and the midday sun shone in from the window at the end of the corridor, shining warmly on him. Pure white sheets were drying on the sidewalk, and the green leaves were swaying and rustling outside the window.

Lu Mingfei washed his face and then slowly regained his energy.He put his hands in his trouser pockets, looked at the ground with his head drooped, and went all the way downstairs. He bought what his aunt wanted at the convenience store and a new copy of "Novel Painting" at the magazine stand.

Although he bought every issue of "Novel Pictures", Lu Mingfei knew that Lu Mingze didn't like reading it, but her aunt still asked him to buy it because she could brag to her neighbors about "our family's Mingze" Ze is learning."But Lu Mingze's performance has not improved and is still the same as usual, good or bad.

My aunt is a person who loves to compare. She was like this when she was young, and she is still like this now.

Carrying the things in his hands, Lu Mingfei came to the doorman downstairs with his head hanging down.

This incident happened because my aunt was the one who pushed for Zhang. She forced Lu Mingfei to fill out the application form and generously paid the application fee of dozens of dollars to each school.

My aunt had her own plan for this matter. Lu Mingfei’s grades in all subjects were average, but his English was pretty good. He had bad luck when he took the TOEFL test with an English geek in his class, and his score was good. Otherwise, with Lu Mingfei’s current score It is difficult to get an undergraduate degree in China.Nowadays, people are taking exams and going abroad. When they come back, they will not only have a high degree of education, but also a returnee from overseas.

And if he successfully gets the admission notice from an American university, he will be worthy of the living expenses sent by Lu Mingfei's parents.

In addition, I also wanted Lu Mingfei to try to see if he could find a way out again, because Lu Mingze's grades were only slightly better than Lu Mingfei's, and it would be very honorable if he could give up the exam and go abroad.But going to college is a lifelong matter, and her aunt still couldn't bear to let Lu Mingze take this risk.

If Lu Mingfei fails, it doesn't matter, it means that this road is blocked, and Lu Mingfei can postpone the college entrance examination with his cousin for a year.

"Do you have a letter from me?" Lu Mingfei poked his head at the door of the communication room and asked for the English pronunciation, "mingfeilu."

"Yes, it's from the United States." The guard threw a letter.

Lu Mingfei took it and felt that the envelope was very thin.As in the past, after submitting so many applications, most of what I received was just a thin rejection letter. Every admission letter would be a thick stack with many forms and introduction materials.

Lu Mingfei tore open the letter and only glanced at the beginning to see the familiar rejection language.

Dear Mr. Lu Mingfei:

Thank you for your interest in the University of Chicago, but we regret that you are reneging on admission.

However, we often say that there is more than one road, it just depends on whether you are willing to choose.

First of all, I would like to introduce myself. Cassel College is a private university located in the outer suburbs of Chicago, Illinois, USA. It is a fellowship school with the University of Chicago and has extensive academic exchanges.

We are very honored to have received your application information from the University of Chicago. After careful evaluation, we believe that you meet the admission standards of Cassel College and would like to extend an invitation to you.

Please contact Professor Guderian of our school as soon as you receive this letter. He is on an academic visit to China and will arrange an interview for you.

If you have any questions, please contact Professor Gudraan.I will assist him in providing services to you. My name is Norma Lawns, the College Secretary at Cassel College. It is a pleasure to meet you.

Lu Mingfei read the letter completely, and his first feeling was shock, and then disbelief.Was he admitted just like that?

Even he himself wondered if he was dreaming or if he was mentally exhausted and hallucinating.He took the letter and prepared to discuss the matter with his aunt and uncles.

"Don't leave yet, I still have some things to sign for."

Seeing that Lu Mingfei was about to leave, the guard quickly called him to stop.

"Do you need to sign for the letter?" Lu Mingfei was a little confused. He didn't buy anything himself, so how could someone send him something?The only thing he did every time he showed up here was to get the notices from American universities that rejected his application.

The guard took out a large fedex letter. Lu Mingfei touched it with his hand and felt something hard inside.After hesitating for a moment, he tore open the letter and poured out...a mobile phone.

Pure black n95 mobile phone.

He had seen this mobile phone in Brother Ren's hand, but had never used it. The guy who could give away an n95 mobile phone obviously didn't care about this wealth. For a moment, he doubted whether the other party had filled in the wrong address.Because no one would give him such a valuable thing.

Lu Mingfei felt that he needed to calm down.He turned on his phone. The battery was still half charged, and there was only one contact in the communication contacts on the phone, "Professor Guderian."

At the same time, Ren in the Internet cafe also received the same letter as Lu Mingfei. There was also an n95 pure black mobile phone inside, and the contact was the same as Lu Mingfei.
