In the canteen of Ethereal Peak, Wang Lu, Wen Bao and Mu Xiao took their seats in the main hall.
Mu Xiao looked around at the scenery of the cafeteria, and his heart was filled with emotion — ever since that famous chef from the Western Continent came, he hadn't eaten here for a long, long time.
Then he turned his head and looked at the Western Continent famous dish on the table, "Look up at the starry sky", and looked at the fish head standing on top of the flat cake. His heart was filled with a kind of sigh of sympathy.
They were both in the same boat!
Not long after, the cafeteria service puppet brought the dishes ordered by Wang Lu one by one, and two bottles of purple Western Continent wine. After pouring the wine for each of them, it quietly retreated.
Wang Lu picked up the wine glass and smilingly said, "The environment is good, right? There are only three of us in such a big hall, and it's like a private room. You can't find this kind of treatment anywhere else. "
Mu Xiao sighed and thought to himself, Isn't that right? Since we are a group of rare guests, the Western chef will probably come out to lick our boots. However, he was not in the mood to care about the cafeteria.
"If you have something to say, please get straight to the point."
"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony." Wang Lu put down his wine cup. "About our bet earlier … If I'm not wrong, Senior Brother, you probably can't afford it."
"Hehe." Mu Xiao smiled bitterly and did not speak.
"Two thousand eight hundred and ninety points are equivalent to two hundred and thirty-nine thousand Spirit Stones. Even the elders of the sect would find it difficult to take out such a huge sum of money at once. Moreover, Senior Martial Brother, you're just an ordinary disciple, and you're in the middle of cultivating. However, it's alright if you can't pay me back. I don't intend to force you. "
Not forcing it?
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiao was immediately stunned. Although it was somewhat inconceivable, could it be that the meaning of Wang Lu's words was … No, when did their Non-Phase Peak have such a compassionate heart!? According to the greedy Fifth Elder, he would probably give him a loan that he would never be able to repay in his entire life! It was precisely because of this that Mu Xiao had the impulse to go into closed door cultivation in the Sword Tomb for a hundred years.
"Wang Lu, what are you trying to do!? I've offended you before, and now I admit defeat! If you want to kill me, do as you please, but don't make fun of me like this! "
But Wang Lu said seriously, "Mu Xiao Shixiong, we Lingjian School disciples are of the same branch, no matter what, we don't need to kill each other! Have we ever had an irreconcilable enmity? It was just a disagreement back then, a dispute, nothing more. How can there be hatred? "
Even if Wang Lu wanted Mu Xiao to castrate himself on the spot, it would not make Mu Xiao more stunned than this.
"You, you are …" How considerate are you!? That doesn't sound like something you would say!
Then, he heard Wang Lu continue, "The dispute that day was not intentional by either of us, so there is no need for Senior Brother to blame yourself. Did Senior Brother deliberately make things difficult for me that day?"
Mu Xiao hurriedly shook his head. "Absolutely not! But, but … "
Wang Lu laughed, "It's just a matter of face."
"Face …" Mu Xiao murmured to himself. After a moment, he suddenly picked up the wine cup, drank it, and then sighed, "What a matter of face!"
For a moment, he didn't know how much entanglement there was in his heart.
So, he suddenly poured a full cup of wine and drank it again.
"Alas, Senior Brother Wang Lu, you're right. At that time, because … in short, I have some prejudice against you. Later on, Senior Brother, you didn't bow and scrape to me like the other younger generation disciples. Alas, because of my face, I almost ruined your important matter."
Mu Xiao said and picked up the wine cup, "I hope Senior Brother Wang Lu is magnanimous!"
"Senior Brother Mu Xiao, you're too polite …"
"Don't call me Senior Brother. According to the sect rules, before I master the King Pill, I'm not qualified to be the Senior Brother of a true disciple … Alas, it's all because of face, I even forgot the sect rules."
While talking, he drank another cup of wine. This Misty Peak cafeteria's Western Continent wine was brewed with some heavenly materials and earthly treasures. After a few cups, Mu Xiao was already slightly tipsy.
"Then, as for that bet, Senior Brother Wang Lu, you can rest assured that I will pay you back no matter what! Tomorrow, I will quit my job in Heavenly Policy Hall and go down the mountain to gain experience! Speaking of earning spirit stones, it's faster to go down the mountain. With my Xudan Stage strength, as long as I work hard, it's not impossible to earn 200,000 spirit stones. "
Wang Lu advised, "I've already said that you don't need to worry about the gambling debt."
"Alas, how can I not worry about it! Especially after listening to Senior Brother Wang Lu's advice, it makes me even more ashamed! If I really put the gambling debt behind me, I won't be able to eat and sleep well in the future! And if I have a mental state, there will be obstacles in my cultivation. I'm afraid I will never be able to reach a higher realm in my life! "
Wang Lu sighed, "You're too persistent."
Mu Xiao said with a smile, "As a cultivator, how can I not have some persistence? Haha, maybe with this opportunity, after I go down the mountain, my cultivation will be even more refined! Within ten years, I'll let you all see if I can master the King Pill! "
Seeing that Mu Xiao had already become impassioned under the influence of alcohol, Wang Lu nodded, "It's really praiseworthy to have such lofty sentiments and lofty aspirations! But Junior Brother Mu Xiao, you might as well think about it. If you really go down the mountain, what will Uncle Liu Xian think of me? "
Mu Xiao froze for a moment, "This … I will explain to him."
"I'm afraid that the more I explain, the worse it will get. You also know Uncle Liu Xian's temper. What's more, if the Heavenly Policy Hall loses manpower, what will happen to the daily work? Grabbing other Junior Brothers to replace them, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve Senior Brother's efficiency. "
Mu Xiao suddenly felt a chill in his head, mumbling, "Then what should I do?"
Wang Lu inwardly smiled, thinking that the key link had finally arrived.
"Oh, speaking of which, it's a coincidence. I have a slightly difficult matter here and need Junior Brother Mu's help."
Mu Xiao quickly said, "There's no harm in saying it! Anything is fine! "
Wang Lu said, "In fact, this matter is not difficult for Junior Brother, but it will help me a lot. If you are willing to help, it is no less than 200,000 spirit stones."
"Is there such a thing?" Mu Xiao was surprised.
"Yes, this experiential learning in the Small Clear Sky Peak may be a miracle in the eyes of others, but in fact, for me, there are still some shortcomings."
Mu Xiao suddenly clicked his tongue, there are still shortcomings? This is simply not letting people live!
Wang Lu said, "But in fact, in the process of experiential learning, Wen Bao and I have reached our limits, and there is no room for further improvement in our tactics. After thinking about it, the current lineup is a bit weak, and if we want to make up for the shortcomings, we need to introduce new people. "
Mu Xiao nodded to show his understanding, but what does this have to do with me? Does he need me to help recommend people?
"It's like this, I hope to introduce foreign aid … .His identity is a bit special."
Mu Xiao froze for a moment, then frowned, "Could it be someone from the evil path?"
"Oh, where can I get to know someone from the evil path? Don't worry, there is no problem with his background. On this point, I can issue a guarantee in the name of the Fifth Elder, so you won't be embarrassed. The special thing about the foreign aid I want is that the other party is not a cultivator, but a mortal world's martial artist. "
"Mortal world's martial artist!?" Mu Xiao was taken aback, "Isn't that the same as courting death!?"
Wang Lu pointed to himself, "Don't forget, I am actually just a mortal world's martial artist. I can guarantee that person is absolutely strong, even if I die, that person will not die. This is the key to me completing the challenge. "
Mu Xiao hesitated, "But according to the rules …."
Wang Lu said, "Yes, according to the rules, except for a Successor Disciple like me, the Clear Sky Peak does not allow mortals to enter, but generally speaking, if there is a special guarantee from the sect's Elder, then it is a different matter. Now, I can casually issue a guarantee from the Fifth Elder, the key is whether Junior Brother Mu Xiao will recognize it or not. "
Mu Xiao nodded in silence, understanding the crux of the problem.
If it was just a stingy rule, Wang Lu could issue a guarantee in the name of the Elder, and it would be a special case to bring in foreign aid. But as the saying goes, rules are dead, and people are alive. In order to avoid practical difficulties, a clerk like Mu Xiao was needed to adapt to the situation.
But now there were two problems. First, was it legal for Wang Lu to falsely use the Elder's seal? Second, even if it was really issued by the Fifth Elder, given her special character, it was another matter whether the guarantee would be effective or not. So the final decision to allow Wang Lu to bring in foreign aid was indeed made by Mu Xiao.
But this was indeed a bit difficult. According to Mu Xiao's character, this kind of application with too much uncertainty and too high risk would generally be rejected, but the applicant was, after all, Senior Brother Wang Lu … But if he agreed to it, it would be a great violation of the relevant rules.
Just when Mu Xiao was hesitating, Wang Lu said again.
"If Junior Brother Mu Xiao feels that this matter is not reliable enough, I can think of another way."
At this point, Mu Xiao could only clench his teeth and said, "Even if this matter is not reliable, but Senior Brother Wang Lu, you are absolutely reliable, I trust you! So, I will write a permission letter for you, leaving the name blank. Senior Brother, you can fill it however you want. I have a seal with me, I will stamp it for you! "
While saying that, Mu Xiao took out the seal that symbolized the authority of the Heavenly Policy Hall from his mustard seed bag and stamped a red seal on the lower right corner of the golden sincerity paper.
"Ha, it's done, then Senior Brother, you can fill it as you please. But because it is a sincerity paper, you must write your real name. After filling it, your companion will be able to pass through the Small Clear Sky Peak's restriction. "
Hearing this, Wang Lu frowned, but immediately stretched out his eyebrows. He picked up his wine cup and said with a smile, "Junior Brother Mu Xiao is really straightforward! Senior Brother, I will drink first! "
"Good! Drink! "
Although he had casually done something that completely violated the operating rules, Mu Xiao felt as if he had been worn out. He put down the wine cup, picked up the wine pot, and drank to his heart's content, which shocked the nearby Wang Lu and Wen Bao!
However, this Xudan Stage cultivator, who had been engaged in public service for three years, had already cultivated a huge amount of spirit grass. Under the effect of the spirit grass brewed wine, he began to feel dizzy and tipsy, but his mood was even more carefree.
"Haha, this is really refreshing!"
Wang Lu also laughed. "It is indeed refreshing! But let's not just drink without eating! Let's eat, let's eat! This is the traditional cuisine of the Western Continent, we must taste it! "
Mu Xiao muddleheadedly picked up his chopsticks, picked up a piece of the starry sky pancake that was filled with the curse and resentment of the Fish-head Star people, and subconsciously put it into his mouth.
Then he fell to the ground, unable to get up again.
