As expected of Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah!
Although they were beaten to a pulp, the young masters knew what Wang Lu was planning to do.
Indeed, the 120 people were not the entire Peach Blossom Village. Indeed, they were so stupid that they forgot about such an obvious person!
The mysterious shadow, the Peach Blossom Village's security guardian, Ah Da Da!
Ah Zha Zha could be said to be the most mysterious person in the village. No matter who in the village mentioned him, the other party would very naturally have a confused expression that said, "What are you talking about?" They would forcefully change the topic and shut their mouths. He appeared and disappeared like a ghost dozens of times so far. Every time he appeared, he would just in time to stop the violent bloodshed (but he seemed to be indifferent to verbal violence, which allowed Wang Lu to take advantage of him). Moreover, he was very skilled. Even if the contestants had magical weapons, they would not be able to withstand his punches and kicks. The most exaggerated time was when Xie Qianlong and the others, who had already given up on themselves, specially set up a trap to lure him to come. They first activated their magical weapons, and when the shadow appeared, they immediately activated them. As a result, the shadow broke the Ice Storm and Flowing Cloud Formless Sword with his bare hands, and beat the three young masters black and blue.
After that, no one thought that the shadow was from the Peach Blossom Village, because in a peaceful little village, how could there be an expert who could fight with magical weapons with bare hands? Obviously, he was a senior disciple from the Lingjian School who was sent here to monitor the village! How could a senior disciple attack the village!?
But now it seemed... could it be...?
Sure enough, after the shadow appeared, it did not immediately disappear. Instead, it stopped in front of Wang Lu.
This was also the first time that people saw the shadow's true appearance... well, it was better not to see it. It was indeed a shadow. It barely had the silhouette of a person, but the details were all hidden in the black fog. This appearance indeed did not look like a senior disciple from the Lingjian School, but more like an old demon from a cult.
Wang Lu was not afraid. With an expression of "I have been waiting for you for a long time", he said, "Hero, come and teach me kung fu. My bones are clear and my aptitude is outstanding. I will definitely be able to shoulder the heavy responsibility of maintaining world peace! "
The black shadow didn't seem to expect Wang Lu's opening remarks to be so direct. He paused for a moment and said stiffly, "It's good that you help people in the village and make friends, but if you want to learn my kung fu … it's not enough."
With that, he disappeared with a whoosh.
However, Wang Lu had already obtained what he wanted. When he said that it wasn't enough, he was obviously referring to the lack of Favorability. Although he had painstakingly worked for a month and finally designed a perfect One Wave Rush strategy, he had only practiced it for a day after all. The accumulation of Favorability was limited.
But with the Perfect Wave Rush, it wouldn't take too long to start from zero to max. Those short-sighted Trial Takers thought that those Peach Blossom Villagers who monopolized the Quest were worthless. They were really stupid. Indeed, after losing the Quest, it was impossible for the villager to help the Trial Taker leave the Peach Blossom Village. But on the contrary, his strategy would become very rigid and monotonous. Just like what Wang Lu did yesterday, he could obtain a large amount of Favorability by simply bartering. Moreover, he could try it repeatedly and infinitely. And the accumulation of these Favorability points would greatly affect a Trial Taker's overall evaluation.
Right now, the Trial Takers who stayed in the Peach Blossom Village had basically all obtained a ticket to leave. Now, they were here to further improve their evaluation. However, they didn't use the simplest method and insisted on monopolizing the Quest. In Wang Lu's eyes, this was proof of inbreeding.
As for Wang Lu, his goal was different from the others from the very beginning.
If it was a competition in other fields, Wang Lu didn't have the confidence to win against these rich elites of the Nine Provinces. But this Immortal Path … it was as if it was tailor-made for him. Every stage was so meticulously designed. So if he wanted to do it, he would do it to the best of his abilities.
With a clear goal in mind, what Wang Lu needed to do next was to keep repeating the Perfect Wave Rush until the next step of the Quest was triggered by the black shadow.
This repetition lasted for half a month. In the past half a month, more and more Trial Takers had chosen to leave. One reason was that they had done almost everything they could in the Peach Blossom Village — the more they did, the better the results would be. For example, a certain prince who liked his elder sister was brutally defeated by a village girl.
The Peach Blossom Village was a test of one's EQ. This was indeed reflected in the fact that most of the Trial Takers who were able to persist until now were tactful people. However, each of them had their own limits. There were always some people in the village that they couldn't please.
On the other hand, watching helplessly as Wang Lu easily pleased everyone was not a small blow. With poor psychological endurance, it was easy for them to retaliate against the society, and ultimately harm others and themselves.
Half a month later, except for those who were destined to live alone in the village for the rest of their lives, most of the Trial Takers had already left. Even the clumsy Wen Bao, who had taken the A-level Quest and received Hai Yunfan's help, had almost failed the Quest, had accumulated enough Completion Points and happily left the Peach Blossom Village with Aunty Liu.
The only ones left in the village were those who had no hope of ascending to Immortality and Wang Lu.
Perhaps it was because Wang Lu had stayed in the village for too long, or perhaps those who were sensible had already reached the next stage, but rumors against Wang Lu began to gradually spread in the Peach Blossom Village.
Or perhaps it was mockery.
Wasn't it great to be the first in the Cloud Wave Map? Was it great to win the Village Head's favor and monopolize the Village Head's backyard? Was it a sense of accomplishment to personally guide Hai Yunfan to be the first to leave the Peach Blossom Village? Was it invincible to increase the favorability of one hundred and twenty people in one go?
And now, you're stuck here with us losers. You're very unwilling, aren't you?
Self-righteous, letting one hundred and twenty opportunities slip away in front of your eyes, vainly trying to catch that non-existent Hidden Quest. In the end, you fell into a trap of your own making. Your bright future was ruined by your own hands, and your path to Immortality was severed. Apart from being able to live in the Village Head's backyard until the end of the trial, what's the difference between you and us?
In the face of these malicious remarks, Wang Lu did not pretend to be some kind of otherworldly expert. Instead, he ran to the village square in a very high-profile manner and passionately fought against the rumors.
Wang Lu's way of fighting was very direct.
"Idiot, your mother was f * cked by a dog."
This short sentence silenced the entire Peach Blossom Village for a long time. Dozens of shocked eyes stared at him. It was hard to imagine that Wang Lu, who always pretended to be an expert, could actually scold people in such a nasty way.
However, in Wang Lu's view, the essence of cursing in the street was nothing more than this. In addition to the acerbic, sharp, and straight to the point of sarcasm, it was also the most lethal part of cursing that involved relatives. Moreover, it was suitable for both young and old, and its scope of application was very wide, and the enraging effect was first-class.
Sure enough, those young masters who usually boasted of themselves as nobles all flew into a rage out of humiliation.
"Wang Lu, you're courting death!"
"Bastard, don't think that we're afraid of you just because you have some tricks up your sleeve!"
"I'm going to make you beg for death, but you can't!"
For a moment, the remaining ten or so people in the village unanimously launched a crusade, especially a certain young master with the surname Xie.
In this regard, Wang Lu just sneered, "You're not convinced? If you're not convinced, then come and prove it to me. If you bastards have the ability to defy the heavens, then come and try to touch me, bastard! "
Under such provocation, someone finally lost his self-control and threw his fists at Wang Lu.
Then, a black shadow descended from the sky.
"Ah, hit, hit, hit, hit, hit!"
After waiting for the crowd to attack, Wang Lu smiled and said to the black shadow, "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
This time, the black shadow was not in a good mood. "Your mouth is indeed crooked! I'm not here to be your bodyguard! "
Wang Lu nodded, "I know, you're here to teach me martial arts. I've already maxed out the favorability of 120 people."
Speaking of this, Wang Lu could not help but sigh. As early as when he entered the Peach Blossom Village, he had suspected that there would be a hidden quest, because he always felt that he had a tacit understanding with the designer. If he did it himself, it would definitely be a hidden quest.
But he did not expect that this quest would be so troublesome! He actually had to maxed out the favorability of 120 people to trigger the next step... Thinking about it, if he had not been the first to walk out of the Cloud Wave Map, had not been able to stay in the Village Chief's house, and had been able to safely deduce the entire map, and had the Village Chief as his source of information, he would not have been able to find the One Wave Rush strategy no matter what.
And without the One Wave Rush, even the most skilled social butterfly would not be able to please 120 people at the same time. This was extremely difficult!
However, the more difficult it was, the higher the reward. Wang Lu was very, very curious as to what kind of reward this hidden quest would give!
However...
"I've seen... your ability to be kind to others," the black shadow said as he looked down at the crowd of trial takers, "but that's not enough."
Wang Lu frowned, "Not enough?"
"If you want to learn martial arts, you need to pay for it."
"... Tuition?"
The black shadow laughed, "My requirements are not high, I only need one copper coin."
Wang Lu laughed, "Your tuition is really artistic. Isn't one copper coin easy? I'll give it to you now."
In the Ru Family Inn in the Spirit Creek Town, Wang Lu had spent almost all of his money, but he still had some scattered silver and copper coins.
However, when he took out the money bag, the black shadow shook his head, "What's the use of money from outside? I only want the money from the mountain. "
Wang Lu's expression suddenly sank.
Money from the mountain? Where did the money from the mountain come from? The Peach Blossom Village was peaceful and comfortable, but the currency system was so primitive that it made people want to cry. Not to mention gold and silver coins, there was not even a single shell. The most popular way was to barter.
Wang Lu stood there, stunned. The black shadow did not hurry to leave, it just quietly waited for him to think.
Money from the mountain... This mountain was obviously the Spirit Sword Mountain. The Lingjian School on the Spirit Sword Mountain had its own currency system, but that was too far away from him. Other than that, where else could there be money on the Spirit Sword Mountain?
Wait a minute, that means...
As an adventurer who specialized in strategy, Wang Lu's nerves suddenly trembled, and a light flashed in his mind.
He opened the money bag and picked up a coin from the pile of ten or so copper coins.
That copper coin was the change given to him by the Lady Boss of the Ru Family Inn in the Spirit Creek Town. Since it came from the Spirit Creek Town, it should be the money from the mountain... right?
Sure enough, when the black shadow saw the copper coin, it stretched out its hand.
Wang Lu carefully gazed at the movement of the shadow. Strangely enough, this shadow's punches and kicks were as fast as lightning. Even the magical treasures were shattered under its punches and kicks. However, at this time, its movement was a bit slower than ordinary people.
Strange, very strange. In his mind, the adventurer's light kept flashing, but he could not see the real shadow. Wang Lu frowned. His fingers, which were holding the copper coin, turned white because of excessive force.
The next moment, he seemed to hear the black shadow sigh, so he made a prompt decision.
Wang Lu took back the copper coin.
The black shadow was stunned, "What?"
"I'm sorry, this copper coin is a relic left by my dead wife. It has a very important meaning to me."
The black shadow froze for a moment, and then uttered an unknown murmur. The next moment, a fist silently came flying towards him.
"Dead wife my ass!"
