After using the Misty Peak Cafeteria's traditional weapon to deal with Mu Xiao, Wang Lu called the cafeteria's service puppet to send him back to his residence.
Holding the golden document in his hand, Wang Lu laughed and shook his head. "Hehe, he really believed it. Sure enough, public officials are especially easy to talk to on the table."
Wen Bao, who had been silent for a long time, finally couldn't hold back his curiosity. "Senior Brother, what were you and Senior Brother Mu Xiao doing? It seemed like you had a bet with him? "
Therefore, Wang Lu explained the bet that they made before this trip to the Small Clear Sky Peak. Wen Bao was immediately surprised. "Senior Brother, according to what you said, it's a bet of at least two hundred thousand spirit stones. You just … just give up like that? Just for this piece of paper? "
Wang Lu said, "Do you really think that 200,000 spirit stones can be obtained? Even if Mu Xiao sells himself, he can't afford it. Moreover, we are fellow disciples, but because of a quarrel, one of them had to go into seclusion in the Sword Tomb. This kind of thing is enough to alarm the Heavenly Sword Hall. At that time, it will not be easy to clean up. So instead of staring at the 200,000 spirit stones that can't be obtained, it would be better to get something practical. "
Wen Bao stared at the golden document in Wang Lu's hand. Was this the thing that Senior Brother was talking about?
"In fact, the real harvest is not just this piece of paper. You know, according to the rules, signing this thing to me is against the rules. For a public official who has been working hard for more than three years, this is a big risk. If it weren't for the table, even if he owes me 200,000 spirit stones, I'm afraid he wouldn't be so happy to trample on the rules. "
Wen Bao didn't really understand. "And then?"
"For public officials, breaking the rules is like taking drugs. Once there is the first time, the second and third time will follow, and it is impossible to return to the original life. What is that saying? That door has been broken, and happiness will never come back. "
"Uh …"
Seeing that Wen Bao's ability to understand was like a domestic animal's, Wang Lu decided to directly draw a conclusion.
"In short, it is very convenient to use the power of Mu Xiao, a public official, to seek personal gain."
Wen Bao suddenly realized, 'I knew it, Senior Martial Brother spent so much effort, it can't really be for the sake of friendship, he must have a purpose!'
Of course, he wouldn't dare to say this even if he had ten thousand guts.
"Also, Senior Brother, what did you mean when you said that you had regrets about that training?"
"It's literally what it means. Although I've fought all the monsters that I should have fought, I was limited by my lack of strength at that time, so I didn't collect many medicinal herbs and didn't achieve many achievements. In the end, I only survived in the Azure Dragon Gorge for seven days before I had no choice but to retreat. I didn't achieve the goal of ten days. Don't you feel indignant? Don't you think we should do something next? "
Of course, Wen Bao didn't think so. He didn't know how to spend the 3,000 challenge points he had, and he didn't even have time to digest Junior Sister Yue's sincere praise. How could he think about what was going to happen next?
"Oh, in any case, I am still brooding over those Red Refined Fruits, so after resting for two days, I still have to go to the Small Clear Sky Peak."
Wen Bao was stunned. He blinked his eyes and waited for Senior Brother Wang Lu to continue.
"Of course, you too."
"Sure enough, I can't run away!" Wen Bao lamented and put his plump chin on the table. Although the experiential learning challenge was over, thinking about the extreme week he spent in the Small Clear Sky Peak, as well as the countless crises he encountered during that time, he still felt his hair stand on end and his legs go soft.
However, just now in the Heavenly Policy Hall, Junior Sister Yue's gentle smile appeared in his mind at this moment. That sweet voice, that gentle and beautiful appearance immediately injected boundless courage into Fatty. Although his left and right legs were weak, the right side of his left leg and the left side of his right leg gradually became firm.
"Good, let's go! But, Senior Brother, what's the matter with the foreign aid you mentioned? Do we really need to find someone to help us? What kind of person is it? "
"Of course it's a super strong master, otherwise, there would be no need to go through so much trouble."
Wen Bao smiled and began to try to flatter his Senior Brother: "In front of Senior Brother, who dares to call themselves a master? Isn't it just a mortal world's martial artist? "
Wang Lu sneered: "It's true that he's a mortal world's martial artist, but to be honest, I'm not even qualified to be his punching bag. Do you understand?"
Wen Bao, of course, couldn't understand. Senior Brother Wang Lu, you actually used a self-deprecating method to flatter others? This is completely not in line with your character!
However, the master Wang Lu mentioned really aroused his interest. For Wang Lu to be so eager, how high was that person?
"Oh, come with me to visit him, then you'll know." With that, Wang Lu stood up.
Wen Bao was surprised: "Now?"
"Of course now. While it's not too late, I still want to find a place to eat something — you don't think I'll really eat these so-called Western delicacies, do you?"
Wen Bao nodded in agreement. With his size, it was natural for him to not be picky about food. However, even Wen Bao had no interest in the Misty Peak's cafeteria.
Then, the two of them boldly got up and walked away. When they left the cafeteria, they seemed to hear the heartbroken sigh of a chef at the kitchen door.
Wen Bao couldn't help but say, "Actually, that chef has been working very hard. Even if there are no customers, she has been constantly updating her dishes for the past two years."
"Yes, unfortunately, the route is wrong. The more knowledge you have, the more reactionary you become. That fellow has no cooking talent. I heard that she is second to none in the Western Continent, but eating and cooking are two completely different things, okay? I don't know which donkey kicked Martial Uncle Liu Xian's head that he hired her as a chef. "
Wen Bao thought for a moment and said, "I remember half a year ago, she updated a dish. She said that she integrated her life experience in the Western Continent into the food. It was a culinary delicacy that contained profound truth, which could make the taster enjoy an extraordinary experience."
Wang Lu, as a long-term food ticket holder of the Misty Peak's cafeteria, naturally understood. He angrily nodded and said, "The result was clearly an enhanced version of the Look Up at the Starry Sky! Thirteen fish heads were neatly stacked on the edge of a round pancake, and then she explained that this symbolized everyone's equality, regardless of their status … Damn it! At that moment, she was practically possessed by my master. There was no limit to her trickery! "
Wen Bao was stunned: "I think she was serious at that time. That, to describe it in a literary way, her pair of green eyes were full of sadness."
Wang Lu glanced at Wen Bao. "Fatty, you should give up. Even if you read all the women's magazines in the sect, you can't become a literary superman to win the favor of Junior Sister Yue."
Thereupon, Wen Bao's dark brown eyes were full of sadness. "I just want to shorten the distance between me and her."
"Then you have to lose your belly first."
"... By the way, Senior Brother, you said you want to find something to eat, but we're not going to the Carefree Peak."
Wang Lu laughed. "What's so delicious about the Carefree Peak? Just follow me. "
Then, Wen Bao followed Wang Lu down the Spirit Sword Mountain in a daze.
Walking on the quiet path of the Spirit Creek Town, Wen Bao became more and more alarmed. "Senior Brother, where are we going?"
"Hahaha, we're already here, why are you still asking? In the Spirit Creek Town, only the Ru Family Inn is reliable, right? "
"Ru Family Inn!?" Wen Bao almost jumped up. "That's the Ru Family Inn where the Lady Boss would kick the customers out of the door and roll them down the slope, sell a white radish for a thousand taels of silver, and force them to promote Nu Er Hong!?"
Wang Lu gave Wen Bao a deep look. "Yes, that's the Lady Boss who would kick the customers out of the inn. Moreover, with her Six Senses Magical Ability, even if you were standing here, she could hear you clearly and remember you for the rest of her life."
Wen Bao's legs went soft on the spot. "I beg you not to go!"
"Interesting, you can go to the Azure Dragon Gorge, but you can't go to the Ru Family Inn?"
Wen Bao painfully explained, "Senior Brother, please forgive me. I'd rather face those monsters in the Azure Dragon Gorge than face the Lady Boss of the Ru Family Inn. Whenever I think of her, my legs go soft. Even when I think of Junior Sister Yue's smile, I can't get hard!"
"Oh, you're so young yet you can't get hard. Are you going to be a pushover for the rest of your life?" Wang Lu ridiculed him, but in his heart, he was also surprised. This fatty's intuition was really sharp. In terms of strength, the Lady Boss, who could break a magical weapon with one hand and beat the Fifth Elder like a sandbag, was indeed much stronger than those third-level monsters in the Small Clear Sky Peak — although she was only a mortal martial artist. Even if it was Wang Lu himself, he would not be willing to face the hostility of the Lady Boss.
"However, this time, she is an ally, so you don't have to worry about anything."
"Ally … Senior Brother, the reinforcement you were talking about is her!?"
—
Dang dang dang.
Under Wen Bao's urgent gaze, Wang Lu unscrupulously knocked on the door of the Ru Family Inn.
Because of the poor business, this inn, which had no sincerity in operating it, closed early all year round. At this time, the door was closed and obviously did not receive guests. However, Wang Lu obviously did not intend to pay attention to this closed door.
Shortly after the knock on the door, a sleepy and lazy voice came from inside the door. "Closed, no more business!"
Wang Lu smiled. "It just so happens that I don't intend to pay, haha, Lady Boss, quickly come out to receive the guest!"
Then he openly pushed the door open and entered. This unscrupulous face made Wen Bao even more nervous.
"Receive your sister!"
With a mocking voice, the Lady Boss staggered out of the guest room on the second floor. From her wrinkled clothes and sleepy eyes, it was not difficult to determine that Wang Lu had just interrupted her sleep. However, when the Lady Boss saw Wang Lu, she couldn't help but smile.
Adultery! Wen Bao's first judgment was made, and then he admired Wang Lu from the bottom of his heart.
Lingjian School did not prohibit, and even encouraged, the exchange of feelings between disciples. Misty Peak, Carefree Peak, and other places also had many Dao companions, but … to fall in love with this fierce beast in human form, Senior Brother Wang Lu, you are really too manly!
While Wen Bao was letting his imagination run wild, the Lady Boss also saw him — from the perspective of his physique, there was no way she couldn't see him.
Then the Lady Boss smiled evilly. "Oh, Wang Lu, you can come if you want, but you also brought a beast. Are you here for a sumptuous meal?"
Wen Bao immediately knelt down. This Ru Family Inn was indeed a scam! The Lady Boss clearly wanted to make human meat buns, and the filling was fat!
Wang Lu smiled. "Indeed, I am here for a sumptuous meal. Lady Boss, please serve four dried fruits, four fresh fruits, two salted and sour fruits, and four candied fruits."
The Lady Boss yawned. "There are apples on the counter, peel them and eat them yourself."
Wang Lu was silent for a while. "… Then, do you have roasted quail, stir-fried duck feet, chicken tongue soup, deer tripe brewed with ginger, beef tendons, chrysanthemum rabbit shreds, stir-fried deer legs, ginger and vinegar gold and silver trotters?"
The Lady Boss looked deeply at Wang Lu, and then pointed to the dining table at the side. "You guys sit down and wait, I'll go cook."
A moment later, the Lady Boss came out with three bowls of clear noodles. "Sir, your dishes have all been served."
Wang Lu looked at the clear noodles. "Lady Boss, your dishes have shrunk to the point of becoming an evil god!? Show me some sincerity! It's rare for me to bring a guest here! "
But the Lady Boss said inhumanely, "It's already sincerity enough that I didn't serve you the fodder. What else do you want? If you want to eat, eat. If not, get lost. "
Since there was no other way, he would just eat. Before the others could say anything, Wen Bao had already picked up his chopsticks.
Wen Bao was also very hungry. Although he couldn't eat those famous dishes that Wang Lu had just ordered, a bowl of clear noodles was also good. It was better than looking up at the starry sky … Thinking of this, he took a sip of the noodle soup. The next moment, Wen Bao's expression became very strange.
Because the taste of the noodles was far beyond his imagination! Wen Bao had thought that it was at most a farmer's craft, but when the noodle soup entered his mouth, the refreshing and delicious taste made him feel as if he had returned to the good times of a few years ago.
This … this Lady Boss has hidden her skills well! Senior Brother Wang Lu really brought him to a good place! Although he had tasted all kinds of luxurious dishes in the canteen of the Carefree Peak in the past two years, the dishes that reflected the chef's skills were usually the noodle soup, sliced pork, and other simple dishes. Just this bowl of noodles alone made Wen Bao sure that the Lady Boss was definitely a top-notch chef.
Not long after, the three bowls were clean. The Lady Boss wiped the table and asked, "Looking for me in the middle of the night, what's the matter?"
Wang Lu also went straight to the point, "I want to go to the Small Clear Sky Peak to pick some herbs, but now I lack a hired thug. Lady Boss, I see that you are a good bodyguard material, so I want to use you as a labor force."
Then the Lady Boss very enthusiastically responded to Wang Lu's invitation, "I don't have the time, I'm busy."
"Oh, busy closing the shop? In any case, no one will come to your inn. "
"Damn, you can't talk nonsense like that!" Wang Lu directly poked the Lady Boss's sore spot, so she slapped the table and stood up, "What do you mean no one will come? In the past two years, my inn's daily turnover has exceeded ten thousand silver taels, what else do you want?! "
Wen Bao was surprised, "So much!?"
Wang Lu was also surprised, "You're actually talking about the average, you're really shameless! Two years ago, in the Immortal Gathering, I helped you earn more than ten million silver taels, which is indeed ten thousand … But you still have the nerve to say that! Two days ago, Elder Lu Li also announced that the average savings of the sect's disciples is seventy thousand spirit stones, I don't know how many disciples scolded you! "
The Lady Boss choked and couldn't spit out even half a word.
Wang Lu continued to earnestly persuade her, "In any case, you're just wasting your life here, why don't you come with me to the mountain to cultivate your moral character?"
The Lady Boss laughed, "You, a vulgar person, are also qualified to talk about moral character?"
"... Hey, please show some respect to the Spirit Sword Sect's top student. Let's not talk about the six A's in the cultural course, even before we entered the mountain, we were already famous students, proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and have always been full of moral character."
The Lady Boss continued to laugh, "It's just that moral character is more urgent, right?"
Seeing that the Lady Boss was stubborn, and that after two years of bickering with him, her level had already rapidly risen to a level close to his, Wang Lu decided to use his killer move, no longer talking nonsense with the Lady Boss, and decide the outcome in one round.
Wang Lu kowtowed, "Master, please help your disciple!"
Puff!
The Lady Boss spurted out on the spot, and at the same time, Wen Bao, who was watching from the side, also felt his heart stop beating for a moment.
Senior Brother Wang Lu, isn't your image collapsing too fast!?
Wang Lu looked up with a serious face, "This is the so-called 'a day as a teacher, a lifetime as a slave' … Oh, wrong, a day as a teacher means a hundred days of kindness'. Master, you can't just leave your disciple like this!"
The Lady Boss put on a frightened expression, "Hey, don't scare me. Letting you kowtow like this, it feels like … in your words, it feels like raising a strange flag!"
After hesitating for a moment, seeing that Wang Lu was about to kowtow again, the Lady Boss finally couldn't help but give in. "Okay, okay, since you're so sincere in begging me, then I'll reluctantly help you, but please don't kowtow to me again."
Wang Lu was overjoyed, and he fiercely inserted his chopsticks on the table, "Master! Accept this kowtow from your disciple! "
