Durin's Diary

Chapter 831 The Road of Sorrow

The Tianshi Mansion is quite large, much larger than Du Lin’s tower back then.

Du Lin followed Sun Renyi, walking and stopping all the way. He walked because the road was long and stopped because there were many people. From time to time, a little girl would use the words "little junior brother" to keep him.

It's great to be young.

Du Lin was also moved by this. After all, along the way, most of the Taoist girls had long black hair and a pair of big eyes, which reminded Du Lin of the days in the tower in his previous life. His peers at that time all had innocent smiles and were ignorant of the world. They cared about their classmates and believed in each other sincerely.

"This is Dulin Aiersh, from the Western Continent, and my good friend." Sun Renyi also introduced Dulin.

"Just call me Du Lin." Although he hadn't spoken Chinese for a long time, Du Lin had used this language for a hundred years in his previous life, so there were some things he couldn't forget.

"Wow, so cute." The beautiful tall girl lifted Du Lin up, kissed him, and then put him down. More than a dozen girls laughed and left.

Du Lin wiped his face, the rouge and powder had to be wiped off completely.

"Look how happy you are, your old face is blushing." Sun Renyi said with a smile.

"My daughters are much better than these. For example, my daughter Yala is much more beautiful than them." Du Lin said frankly. He didn't have any good feelings towards the girl just now. After all, she couldn't compare to his daughter. "For example, the girl just now has lost a little weight. Her hands are a little thin."

"What made you become like this? Was it those busty women from Xilu?" Sun Yiren rolled his eyes at Du Lin and pointed at the small building in front of him. "This is for guests. Go in and get a key from the girl at the counter. We need a few days to prepare. You can stay here first."

"Can I go out and play by myself?" Du Lin asked.

"No problem, but do you know the way?" Sun Yiren asked back.

"It's okay, I have Hemo." After saying that, Du Lin called out his Cuckoo Chicken.

Looking at the huge eagle owl in Du Lin's hand, Sun Renyi nodded and said, "Okay, but even if you get lost, just ask the police officers in blue. They will definitely show you the way when they see you are Zhulong."

"That's great." Du Lin clapped his hands after saying that. "By the way, how do you convert money here?"

"Exchange it with gold coins. You can go to Changtang National Bank to exchange it. There will be no problem if you go in like this. When exchanging gold coins for gold ingots, all the impurities have to be removed. They will help you with it." After saying that, Sun Renyi left first.

Meanwhile, Du Lin let Hemer step on his head and walked into the small building. He came to the counter and said, "Hello, I want to check in."

Old man Zhulong, who was reading a newspaper at the counter, glanced at Du Lin and snorted with some disdain: "These kids nowadays wear fake pupils and dye their hair. Tell me, whose family are you from?"

"Durin Ayrsh from Lublin, from the west," Durin replied.

This answer startled the old man. He leaned forward to take a look at Du Lin, then laughed. "So you're a good boy from the East. Your hair isn't dyed, and your eye color isn't fake. To be honest, you're a rare sight. But since you're a Candle Dragon, there's no problem with you living here. Tell me, do you prefer the first or second floor?"

"It's up to you. Just give me a key and tell me a room number. I just want to go out and see the scenery of Changtang Shangjing." Du Lin smiled and stretched out his hand.

"On the first floor, room 1015 on the east side. Follow this corridor to the innermost room and open the door." The old man gave Du Lin a key and said, "Have fun, kid. I never thought there was a living Zhulong in Xilu. Where did they find you?" Du Lin smiled and didn't answer.

………………

Looking at the young Xilu Zhulong walking out the door, the old man Zhulong put down the newspaper and shook the bell in his hand.

Soon, a group of Werebeast maids came out from the back room.

"Go clean up Room 1015. I almost forgot there were so many things piled up there. Hurry up, girls." After saying this, the old man recalled Du Lin's appearance. Finally, he clapped his hands and said, "Hang Master Qianyue's portrait in the room. Let me see if my eyes are still useful."

His order soon yielded results. A girl with goat horns took out a scroll of painting, and her friend opened it.

Looking at the girl in the painting, the old man smiled and said, "Yes, that's her. What a pity for this girl. Go, clean the room and hang up the painting."

After arranging everything, he thought for a moment and then rang the bell again.

Soon, Chief Ping walked into the small building.

"Old man, what's wrong?" Chief Ping walked to the counter, sat on the chair, and took the cigarette that the old man in front of him flicked to him.

"Her child is back, did you know?" the old man asked with a smile.

"I know. The one who came back with Xiao Sun is actually her grandson. She only has one daughter, but she looks like a dwarf demon." Chief Ping put the cigarette to his lips and snapped his fingers. The flame immediately lit the cigarette for its owner.

"I've done my best and haven't embarrassed her. I heard from the old man that her family has one Silver Dragon and two Candle Dragons. The Candle Dragon bloodline of the Western Continent has been revived, hasn't it?" The old man said this and then changed the subject: "I heard that Xiao Sun is going to the Four Islands to kill the Great Demon. Are you willing to let these two children go?"

"Can Xiao Sun be called a child? Do you dare to say that in front of her?" Chief Ping snorted.

"The last life is the last life's business, this life is the fate of this life." The old man finished speaking, smiling and raising the teacup in front of him. "These two children, one suffered all the sorrows for us in the last life, and the other shed blood and tears for her ideals in the last life. The nameless master is kind and has given them two new lives. Are they really going to follow the old path?"

"But will they embark on a new path just because they have a new life? No, they will still walk the same path they have walked before, still suffer all their lives, still shed blood and tears along the way, just like this mortal world, for no reason." Chief Ping said no more after he had said this, he just puffed on his cigarette.

Until the old Candle Dragon sighed and said, "The sky is cracked. You can't fix it, and I can't fix it. Someone who can will come out. Xiao Sun is like this, and so is this person called Du Lin."

"In the end, we're useless." Chief Ping shoved his empty cigarette butt into the ashtray that suddenly appeared before him. The giant then rose from the ground and turned toward the door. "For men and women in this world, everything is determined by fate. We have no control over it. You, me, and him, we can't avoid it, we can't escape it, and we can't escape it."

is not that right.

The old man sighed.

All things and all living beings in this world cannot escape the hustle and bustle. They come for profit and go for profit.
