Lu Shitu squeezed tightly and refused to let go.

He slowly brought Rong Yu's hand to his face, and rubbed it lightly twice.Then, without knowing what was wrong, he suddenly exerted force on his hand, pulling Rong Yu to one side on the chair, almost falling into Lu Shitu's arms.

Then Lu Shitu groped along the back of Rongyu's forearm little by little, and even touched Rongyu's face.He suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Rong Yu, his eyes were so red that they were about to bleed, his brows were tightly furrowed, his face was full of pain, and he murmured like a fool: "Master..."

Rong Yu was stunned by such a tug, and then he felt goosebumps all over his body.It was only then that Rong Yu came to his senses, he pressed Lu Shitu's hand, and his heart broke down a bit: I'm careless, what a demon!

Lu Shitu had faint signs of committing a demon when he saw that Rong Yu was almost injured, so he suppressed it, and only broke out after the matter was completely over.

At this moment, there was a completely different scene in front of him.He seemed to have returned to the side of Liuyunjian just now, in front of him was the grotesque Zhuyin and Rongyu who was confronting it.

At this moment, Zhuyin suddenly attacked and bit Rong Yu fiercely!

Lu Shitu suddenly split his mind: "Master?? Master, be careful!!"

Lu Shitu ran forward desperately, stretching out his hand with all his strength, trying to catch the figure.He ran and chased for a long time, but the figure was still out of reach, as if it was far away in the sky.

Lu Shitu's chest heaved violently, but he still had difficulty breathing, and his eyes were blurred by the liquid, whether it was cold sweat or tears, and he felt a tingling pain.

Even though he was already working so hard, there was no possibility of him interfering in a battle of this level.In just a split second, he watched Rong Yu being swallowed by that thing with tearing eyes!

He said heartbreakingly, "No!!"

However, it was too late.Only Rong Yu's last words remained in the air: "Go quickly, know the way!"

Then, even the last bit of sound died away.nothing left.

Lu Shitu's whole body seemed to be thrown into the ice in an instant, his hands and feet were instantly stiff, and his heart seemed to be frozen. He opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.The extreme fear took away all his reactions in an instant.

Not even in his worst circumstances, in his worst nightmares, had he ever felt such a catastrophe.

Everything in front of him suddenly disappeared, leaving only darkness in the world.

Lu Shitu stood upright on the spot, feeling all hope was lost.

Countless strange voices began to whisper around him: "Look, you are a waste, you can't protect him at all."

"What can you do when he is in danger, you can only hold back. You are his worry, not his spear and shield."

"If you were stronger, how could he have exhausted his spiritual power and become so weak?"

"If you were stronger, how could he face such a danger. No matter how bad it is, he can leave you alone."

"You are not the person who knows him best at all, you know nothing about him, and you are not worthy to stand by his side, you are only worthy to follow behind and watch his back."

Eventually, all the voices started repeating the same sentence: "You're a piece of shit, you can't protect him..."

"Master!" Lu Shitu woke up from the bed and subconsciously shouted.

It was already the early morning of the next day, Rong Yu was sitting on the edge of the couch in a light sleep with his hands resting on his forehead, when he was woken up by this call.

Rong Yu turned to look at him, but before he could speak, Lu Shitu rushed over and hugged him.Lu Shitu's body seemed to be trembling, and he hugged him tightly, as if confirming his existence.

Rong Yu was taken aback, and almost thought that the child's inner demons were not healed.

Fortunately, in the next second, Lu Shitu seemed to have finally come to his senses, let go of his hand like an electric shock, and stepped back with his head down.

After waking up from this sleep, his mood didn't seem to have recovered much. On the contrary, he seemed to be tortured by the demon, and his complexion was very bad.

After the usual demon attack, Lu Shitu will return to normal.This time it seems to be different, he seems not to get out of the emotions of the demon.

And last night, when he was trapped by the demon, his reaction was much more intense than usual.Even at a certain moment, Lu Shitu seemed to be in extreme pain, and he drew out his sword and wanted to stab him, which really scared Rong Yu so much that he had to be physically hypnotized in the end.

About as he practiced Wuwei mentality, the inner demon gradually became more and more difficult to deal with.

Rong Yu couldn't help being a little worried, so he coughed lightly and tried to divert his attention: "Zhitu, do you know why the teacher took you down the mountain this time?"

"Today is the seventh day of February, your 15th birthday."

Lu Shitu froze for a moment, raised his eyes to look at Rong Yu, and finally showed another expression, but it was not joy or expectation at all, but a little dazed, as if he heard a completely unfamiliar word.

Rong Yu sighed inwardly, and was about to speak when he was suddenly interrupted by the sound of firecrackers outside the window.

Rong Yu looked out the window and saw a row of people with heavy make-up sitting in sedan chairs on the street, being carried forward.They are all dressed in bright and exaggerated silk and satin, and they look like gods from all walks of life.Moreover, there are several musicians beating gongs and drums around each sedan chair, which is very lively.

It happened that Xiao Er knocked on the door and came in to deliver breakfast, Rong Yu asked: "My little brother, it's so lively outside, is it a festival?"

When Xiao Er heard this, he seemed to be taken aback, and then teased, "Could it be that you have descended from a fairy family in the sky? This is the Vulcan Festival, which is held every year on the day before the vernal equinox."

When Rong Yu heard the name, he immediately understood.This ceremony has been mentioned more than once in the original text, and it is quite common in the mortal world.

In ancient times, everyone would burn wasteland at the beginning of spring. As the saying goes, it is easier to invite the gods than to send them away. In order to send the god of fire away properly, there is such a ceremony.Although it was born because of the fire □ eye, it gradually derived many functions: worshiping and offering sacrifices to gods, praying for a year of good weather, punishing ghosts and eliminating ghosts, and protecting the family from all poisons.Today, it is no longer a simple "Vulcan" festival, but can be called a "gods sacrifice".

Xiao Er said another sentence before leaving: "You two young masters can go downstairs to have a look, the singing and dancing in Dongshi has already started. If you are interested, you can also perform a dance in person and pray to the gods from all walks of life. The young master is so handsome, I will surely be favored by God, and my wish will be fulfilled.”

Rong Yu: ...

Rong Yu was about to take Lu Shitu out, but after hearing what he said, the two went straight to Dongshi.

On the way, they happened to meet a procession of offering sacrifices to the gods, and the two stopped.Lu Shitu looked at it for a while, frowned, and suddenly said through voice transmission: "Master... something is not right."

Rong Yu looked at it with great interest, and replied: "Huh?"

"The Fire God Festival in Wushui Town... only offers sacrifices to gods, not ghost suppression."

Hearing what he said, Rong Yu carefully looked at the team from the beginning to the end, and found that there were really only people pretending to be gods, but there was nothing related to ghosts.

This matter is indeed a bit strange, but Rong Yu didn't think about it too much, after all, it's a local custom, and it's not his turn to comment.

He led Lu Shitu to continue walking towards Dongshi, patted his head, and said, "Shitu, today, you don't have to worry about anything, you just need to eat well, play well, and celebrate your birthday happily."

Lu Shitu looked at Rong Yu in a daze, and obediently let Rong Yu drag him away.

The two walked through the lively streets and alleys, and many vendors were hawking along the way.Along the way, Rong Yu saw that Lu Shitu didn't look sideways and looked disinterested, so he went to buy a bunch of candied haws for him.

The small vendor handed the candied haws to Rong Yu, and asked casually, "Did you buy it for your younger brother?"

Lu Shitu was stunned for a moment, then blushed, and was about to explain at a loss, but Rong Yu smiled indifferently: "Yes, his birthday is today."

The peddler suddenly laughed: "That's a coincidence, what a good day. He was born today, it seems that the young master is a lucky person. Come, take this string too."

He handed over a bunch of candied haws.Rong Yu was happy to hear it, thanked him with a smile, and handed it to Lu Shitu as well.

At this time, Lu Shitu was really like a teenage boy, he took one bunch with some embarrassment, but refused to take the other.Rong Yu understood what he was thinking, so she took it by herself and took a bite.

I don't know what kind of fruit this candied haws is strung together. The golden fruits are dipped in translucent syrup. They are sweet and delicious, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. They are delicious.

Rong Yu ate it, but turned around to find that Lu Shitu hadn't eaten it, but just looked at himself silently, with a soft expression, and he was no longer as sullen as before.

It is impossible to make up for the lost life, Rong Yu knew it in his heart.He felt sorry for Lu Shitu, but there was only so much he could do.

All the way to the front of the stage, the music of singing and dancing came over.On the stage were a few young men in colorful clothes, with heavy make-up to distinguish between male and female, and they were dancing to the music.

The music is brisk, and their dance is also cheerful and willful. It is not a song and dance for worshiping gods, but more like a national entertainment in the town.

The two stood on the sidelines and watched for a while. From time to time, some people would throw some sachets, handkerchiefs, etc. on the stage, and some would throw flowers, as if to express their love.

As soon as the dance was over, no one came on stage for a while.Rong Yu looked left and right, and with a flash of inspiration, he raised his legs and walked to the stage.

People around cheered and applauded in good faith.Some young girls blushed when they saw Rong Yu, and threw him flower sachets before the performance started.

Rong Yu stepped onto the stage step by step in his cloud-walking boots, first looked around politely, and bowed very gentlemanly.

The young man in black on the stage was tall and tall, with thin lips and sculpted eyebrows, the tails of his eyes were raised, and there was a warm light blue jade ring between his brows, giving him an imposing beauty.His face is as calm and unhurried as if everything is under control, and it is pleasing to the eye to do these facts.So there was another sensation in the audience.

I saw Rong Yu lightly lifted his robe, sat on the stool, took out the erhu from behind, and made a serious pose, very similar to that.

Even on an ordinary theater stage in the countryside, with just him sitting like this, everyone in the audience had the illusion of being in the clouds and listening to the fairy music.

The audience fell silent, and everyone looked at him with burning eyes, waiting with bated breath.
