Goddess Wanhua Mirror

Because Tring provided a lot of "memory fragments", Lacey believed that she had recovered almost half of her memories during her lifetime.Her full name is Lacey Fuller. Fuller is the surname of her husband's family. She was originally the wife of a small local lord in the southwest of Yanmu City. She got married at the age of 17 and gave birth to her daughter Lindy. However, due to her congenital weakness, she left her husband and daughter behind within three years after giving birth.

Lu Dexin said, no wonder you look so young. You are a 21-year-old ghostly young woman, who is less than two years older than the [-]-year-old Elaine.

And Tring's biological mother, Lindy, died three years ago. She was 47 years old when she died. After a little calculation, it turns out that Lacey has been dead for 47 years, and her husband also died 13 years ago. After Lacey's death, she never continued her strings.

On the second night, Atropos returned to Yanmu City with Mrs. Lindy who had been disarmed.When he saw his mother who had become an undead, but her voice, face and smile were still exactly the same as when she was alive, Tring knelt on the ground and cried loudly, telling his mother how he missed the past three years and now after learning the truth. regret.After that, Lacey also stepped forward to meet Lindy's mother and daughter, and the scene seemed weird and touching.

"A 21-year-old grandmother, a 47-year-old mother, and a grandson who uses someone else's body. These three generations are miserable enough."

"Oh, at least there is a chance to get together again, isn't it?"

Looking at the Tring family in front of him, Lude was actually very envious in his heart. Even though his relatives have been separated, at least they can see each other again. On the other hand, as a lonely traveler, it is difficult for him to reunite.

In fact, many times Lu De deliberately kept himself busy, not because he didn't want to be far away from his hometown on Earth, but because he didn't dare to think about it!

After releasing the wraith form of the death slave, Lu De immediately asked Lindy a lot of information about the Navarro family.As Hu En's official wife, although Lindy doesn't participate in family affairs on weekdays, it doesn't mean she can't get in touch.

Combining these account books and research notes they stole from the study and laboratory can give Ludd a more comprehensive understanding of Hoon and the Navarro family that has been in charge of him for generations.

When reading the notes before, Lu De discovered that Hu En's actual age may be far more than his fifties, and Trin was not the first body he took away, not even the old "Hu En".

According to the records in the research notes alone, this guy has changed his body at least seven or eight times, and has survived in this way for more than 300 years. He is a survivor who has experienced the battle of gods.

For such a creature that can no longer be regarded as a human being, I am afraid that family love has long since become meaningless in his cognition, and getting married and having children is just a preparation for the next house grab.

When mentioning her husband, Lindy seemed a little speechless.

Before discovering the secret of the other party, Lindy had a very good impression of Hu En. Although she didn't communicate much with her on weekdays, most of the time was used for office work or doing alchemy experiments, but at least treat her and others. The concubine's room was fine, and there was never any beating, scolding or abuse.

Especially during their pregnancy, it is rare for them to leave all their official duties aside and accompany them every day.So at that time, Lindy naively thought that her husband was just serious and not very good at expressing his feelings.

It wasn't until one day that Lindy wanted to go to the study to give Hu En a bowl of soup she made herself, but she accidentally entered the laboratory by mistake. After seeing those notes, she realized that for more than 20 years, she had been raped by this "monster" with a human face and a beast heart. How deceitful!

Because of the theft, Juan has been very depressed these days.Tring, who had gone to attend the regular meeting, was furious on the spot when he came back, and scolded his cousin like Hu En who had been robbed, making him silent the whole time, not even daring to breathe.

Afterwards, Tring personally supervised the matter and ordered the family forces to do their best to carry out the search, and don't be afraid of losing face or not. This f*cking stuff has been ripped out, so what's the point of saving face?

So the minions of the Navarro family were mobilized, and such a large-scale action naturally attracted the attention of various local forces.Some were gloating, laughing at the Navarro family for losing such a big man, and even the abdicated old patriarch was taken away, which is really ridiculous.

But there are also some people who are worried. They think they smell a conspiracy from the actions of the Navarro family, and they are worried that the other party is trying to make use of it to play against these hostile forces, so they panic.

This incident quickly alarmed the city lord, Duke Crude. As the ruler of Yanwood City, his position may not be entirely on the side of justice and justice, but he is definitely a defender of order. Doing so recklessly in his own fief.

For this reason, Crude met with August, the bishop of the Holy Church of Light, and asked him to send a message to the Navarro family as an intermediary, so that they could stop in moderation.

For the errands arranged by the Duke himself, August naturally did not dare to neglect. He knew that it was inconvenient for the Duke himself to come forward in such matters, so he needed a middleman like him to step in.His majestic bishop seems to have taken on an errand job, but one is the most powerful grand duke and the other is the richest gangster family, which is actually very profitable.

So August specially asked his "friend" Juan to go out to watch the play together, intending to chat with him about this matter face to face.

The venue for the two parties' meeting was chosen at Tianlai Opera House. The No. 2000 Opera House in Yanmu City, which was hard to get a ticket at first, is now doing poorly. The hall can accommodate [-] people, and the attendance rate is not even a quarter. When we arrived, the boxes were more than [-]% empty.

There is no other reason for such a bleak scene. The popularity of "The Cave King" and the appearance of projectors have brought a huge shock almost like an earthquake to the traditional performing arts circle in Yanmu City.The ensuing impacts are both good and bad. Many related practitioners are forced to make changes under the pressure of survival, but they can find their own position in the new era, and some people's living conditions are even improved. Nice improvement.

But there are always victims, such as the old industry leaders like Tianlai Opera House and Feixia Song and Dance Troupe who are unwilling to change.

Katie was also very depressed during this period. Her former enemies took her place, and she tried all means to beg her grandpa to sue her grandma, but in the end it didn't help. She could only watch helplessly as the theater became more deserted. His appeal in Yanmu City is dwindling day by day.

The current Feixia Song and Dance Troupe is getting worse day by day. Not only is it being trampled underfoot by the thriving Rainbow Opera Troupe, but there is also a trend of betrayal on its own side.As for the Tianlai Opera House, which has been working happily with them, the boss couldn't bear the sluggish attendance. He went to the Skyline Opera House several times with Katie behind his back, as if he was ready to bow his head and give up.

In addition, because Katie made a mistake and drove away Sanz before, they couldn't find other reliable playwrights to write the script for a while, so they could only rely on the two stolen works to maintain the performance, but they couldn't do it. The cool stage special effects like "The Cave King" can no longer satisfy the tastes of the local audience who have been raised.

Sometimes Katie even wanted to be ruthless and just hire a killer to kill Servis, but then she couldn't help but think of that day, that young man named Hugo used a strange expression in front of her. The magic of turning a hardcover man into a haggard old man can be said to hit Katie's Achilles' heel. He was afraid that the other party would also turn him into that, which would be more uncomfortable than killing her.

After thinking about it, the most suitable way out for Feixia Song and Dance Troupe is to leave Yanmu City as soon as possible and go to other places to continue performing. At least for a while, there is still a way to survive, but Katie's self-esteem does not allow her to act like a loser After exiting the stage disheveledly, he could only persevere so hard.

The situation of the performance was the same as the previous few days. In the empty hall, there were only three or four hundred spectators sitting sparsely.For an ordinary small opera house, this is already a lot of people, but it reveals a sense of "pill" desolation in the Teana Opera House.

Moreover, Katie could see that the audience in the audience was not only a sharp drop in number, but even the "quality" had dropped by more than one level compared with the most glorious heyday of her family.

The Feixia Song and Dance Troupe back then was the guarantee of the box office. Whenever they had a new play released, the ticket price for the first show would often be raised by more than five times. On the outside, they are all well-dressed and decent people.

However, the current situation is not as good as before. Due to the current situation, Tianlai Opera House has lowered ticket prices several times. This has indeed improved the sluggish attendance rate to a certain extent, but it also caused the audience to change from the "decent people" in the past to Became the current "lower Riba people".

A considerable part of the audience did not come for the theater, but simply wanted to go to the Teana Opera House, which was unaffordable in the past.

Looking at the group of rustic local untouchables under the stage, Katie even developed a sense of laziness that she was too lazy to perform.

But today, two important people came to the theater after a long time, and both of them had a very close relationship with Katie, the kind who had "in-depth" communication.

So, taking advantage of the preparation time before the show, Katie came to the box on purpose to greet the two big men who hadn't visited for a long time. As soon as she arrived, she found that the two had entered the same box, and she was being held by the other party. His men blocked the door of the box.

"Fuck! What's going on?"

Seeing two old men who are not too young mysteriously enter a box and want to "be alone", Katie almost subconsciously flashed many heavy-tasting images in her mind.Although similar situations are rare, Katie has seen them, and more than once.

But she quickly regained her composure, the two of them were not good at talking, and it was even more impossible for them to look at each other, entering the box mysteriously, nine out of ten there was something inconvenient to talk about publicly.

Realizing that this situation might not be suitable for her to join, Katie turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped after a few steps, and the two big brothers seemed to have something to talk to her about.

End of this chapter

Feeling apprehensive, Katie entered the box. August, dressed in casual clothes, saw her coming in and waved to her with a smile.

"It's been a while, Miss Kitty."

"Your safety! Lord August, Lord Juan."

Since she didn't know what the two people asked her to do, Katie smiled brightly, but she was actually quite uneasy.Because from the perspective of survival, it is not good for a character like me to know too much.

As if seeing what Katie was worried about, August said with a smile.

"Don't be so nervous, I just asked you to come in and chat casually. There should be a while before the show starts, come and sit next to the old man."

"..."

Although she was not very willing in her heart, Katie didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction on her face, and sat obediently between the two big men, allowing these two old men who were old enough to be her own father to do something to her.

That's why August specially asked Katie to come in, to use this girl to adjust the atmosphere, and then we can talk about business.In fact, if it weren't for the worry that the silver house is the territory of the snake woman Xueli, who is easy to be overheard, August would have asked Juan to chat there.

Knowing that she was being treated as a "shared bicycle", Katie secretly scolded these two old bastards for nothing, but she still had a coquettish and apologetic smile on her face, thinking about how to keep her advantage from being taken for nothing.

"Two brothers, it's been a long time since you came to applaud someone's performance, so you probably forgot about him?"

"Haha! How could it be? We are so busy that we really don't have time. If you don't believe me, look, this is here just after we finished our work!"

"Really?"

"It's true."

"Then what about my request to brother Juan?"

"Uh...this..."

Seeing Katie mentioning this all of a sudden, Juan's eyes flashed a bit of embarrassment. Katie begged him before, but he didn't take it seriously.

As a result, Katie brought it up again now, which made him a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, August on the side asked out of curiosity, so Katie explained the situation again in a "tactful" way, saying that the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe competed viciously, Serves bullied others, and called that Hugo, who wrote the script, threatened her with magic, and it was as bad as hell.

When August heard this, he immediately showed an expression filled with righteous indignation, but this insidious and cunning bishop actually knew in his heart that most of these crimes were wicked things that Katie had committed herself. In front of him, all the brains were planted on the opposite side.

However, if you know what you know, August still followed Katie and denounced the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe.Seeing his behavior like this, Juan couldn't help muttering in his heart, what is this black-hearted bishop doing?

In fact, recently, August has indeed been thinking about how to make a move to complete the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe.

On the one hand, it was because the new drama "King of the Caves" was too popular in the local area, and his intuition told him that it was time for him to take care of it, and he should find a way to reduce the influence of this drama.

On the other hand, it was August's own little thought. He hoped that by beating the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe, he would teach the playwright named Hugo a lesson, and let him understand that young people should not be too arrogant!

When he was watching the premiere at the Skyline Opera House, he fell in love with the heroic female guard next to her at a glance. Afterwards, he kept hinting at the other party in several contacts, thinking that he took the initiative to throw an olive branch, and bestowed him with a hug. Opportunity to get on your thigh.

But that kid pretended to be confused and deliberately ignored August's "good intentions". Gradually, he became impatient, and finally decided to use the method he was best at.

As the bishop of the southern diocese of the Holy Cult of Light in Duran Kingdom, August was once a good young man with ideals and a desire to implement justice.But after all, he is not a perfect man without desires and desires. As his status rises, various temptations follow one after another.

In the beginning, August was able to be strict with himself, and tried not to let himself be confused by money and sex. He felt that the Holy Lord of Light must be watching himself so hard on the holy mountain in the sky, and he must not let the gods he believed in feel disappointment.

However, he still lost to the temptation after all, and made a mistake for a while.But while August was terrified, the expected divine punishment did not come down, so August, who was originally a firm believer, couldn't help but feel a little confused.

At the beginning, he didn't understand why he didn't receive the corresponding punishment for what he did wrong. He thought it was the gods who took pity on him and gave him a chance to make up for his mistakes. The young August found that no matter how many wrong things he did, the gods did not do anything to him.

He didn't know whether this was connivance, or the gods didn't care at all?In short, Auguste realized that as a bishop, he already had power and power over ordinary people in his hands, so why didn't he make good use of this power and power to gain more benefits for himself?

In a trance, August became the person he hated the most, and he no longer felt guilty about doing evil, as if everything was right.

What's even more ironic is that such August, instead of losing his belief in the Holy Lord of Light, has become more fanatical than before!Because he is sincerely thanking the gods who gave him all these things now.

Regarding the action of the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe, August plans to start in two days, first labeling the other party as a "worship of evil gods". Religious thinking is very problematic.

In this day and age, although heresy trials are no longer popular, believing in evil gods is still a taboo.As long as the Sun Knights of the Holy Cult of Light receive reports that there are cultists, they will definitely go out to exterminate them in the name of justice.

Over the years, there are indeed many villains who have been wiped out by the Sun Knight, but it is not that there have been unjust, false and wrongly decided cases.

Because in the end whether it is a cult member or not, many times the parties themselves have no say.

Thinking of this, August couldn't help but glanced at Juan, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Auguste knew all about what the Navarro family and the Brotherhood of the Black Hand were doing and believing in privately, but this did not prevent him from calling each other brothers and sisters. It was an old friendship of more than ten years of eating, drinking, whoring and gambling.After all, he has received a lot of benefits from the other party, and he knows when to close his eyes and when to pretend not to hear.

End of this chapter

At the Skyline Opera House, Serves's daily life has been busy and fulfilling recently. It has been nearly half a month since the premiere of "King of the Grotto", and the venue is still full, and the popularity has not diminished by half.

The fact that the whole drama can last for such a long time has a lot to do with the development of Yanmu City besides its own strength.

You must know that Yanmu City, as the largest city in the southern part of the Kingdom, not only has a lot of local people, but also is located in an important place for transportation. The population flow in China is huge, and it never stops throughout the year, and thousands of people come and go almost every day.

Of course, there are many people who have money and leisure and go to theaters. After entering the city, they are easily sent into the theater to contribute a ticket by those cool posters on the streets and all kinds of Amway crowds.

It is no exaggeration to say that no one will say that they are not good when they come out of the theater.The popularity of the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe is also rising, and there are even many foreigners among the fans.Some of them also took the initiative to contact the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe, inviting them to perform in countries other than the Duran Kingdom, and they already have the potential to become "international superstars".

However, Servis declined all these invitations. She has already made plans for the next trip, and will return to North Pine Town in the spring of the next year.

She has been wandering around with her parents since she was a child, and she has already regarded it as her hometown, and this is also Lude's arrangement. After they return to Pine Town, they will start to learn a new form of performance called "movie".

On this day, as usual, Servis and the actors in the troupe finished the first performance of the day, and were eating and resting here the day after tomorrow.

Under normal circumstances, for a large-scale performance like "The Cave King" that lasts more than three hours, it is the limit for the same group of people to perform one performance a day, and the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe does not have a spare "second group of actors". Twice a day, two consecutive weeks of performances, hard-working people can be smashed into scum.

But fortunately, Servis and the others had the support of Master Lu, who brought them a "refreshing drink" produced by the God of Medicine Sect. After the performance, they only needed a sip to completely eliminate fatigue without any side effects.

With the blessing of this kind of magic medicine, coupled with the promise of the group leader to earn three times the wages for two games a day, the morale of the whole group will be directly boosted.

At this time, a field manager trotted up to Sevis who was resting with her eyes closed, and said softly beside her.

"Captain, that Sans is back."

"Who?"

Hearing that the field manager said "Sans is back", Servis was a little taken aback before realizing that this was the young playwright who had been clamoring to learn from Lude a while ago.

Serves has always been skeptical of this guy, because she heard that he once wrote scripts for Katie's Feixia Song and Dance Troupe. Coupled with the script theft not long ago, Serve, who suffers from "Katie PTSD", Si always felt that the other party was like a [-]-year-old boy, and she never let go of her guard in private.

About a week ago, Sans, who was hanging out with the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe at the Skyline Opera House, suddenly said that he wanted to go back and pack up his belongings. He would hang out with the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe in the future. Don't care, just take him with you, and then without waiting for Servis to say anything, he ran away like a runaway husky without a trace.

As a result, the day after this guy left, the kidnapping happened, which made Servis's suspicion of him further intensified.

Serves, who was so busy every day, quickly forgot about this guy, only to run back out of nowhere.

Out of curiosity, Serves got up and followed the stage manager to the back alley of the theater. As soon as she came here, she was taken aback by the caravan that was so full that it was about to explode behind Sans.

God knows what's in this car. At a glance, you can vaguely see clothes, books and other things that Serves has never seen before. On the canvas roof of the caravan, there is even a statue that is obviously marble. palm, stubbornly drilled out of the ceiling.

What was even more jaw-dropping was that such a heavy truck was pulled by Sans himself. His physical strength was much stronger than that of horses and mules.

Is it scary?Yes, it's scary.

"I'm back, Captain Servis."

"You... what is in this car?"

"Some of my personal belongings! In fact, I have already thrown away a lot of them. I am really reluctant to part with them. It took me a long time just to organize and load them into the car!"

"..."
