In Lü Shu's plan, he was going to take Lü Xiaoyu out to play. As for whether there were other people, to be honest, Lü Shu really didn't think about it.
It wasn't that there weren't other people, but that he didn't think about whether there would be other people or not. Because, to him, there were only him and Lü Xiaoyu in his world.
What would the future hold? Lü Shu suddenly thought of this question, but he couldn't figure it out for a long time. The earth was too big for him. There were so many people and so many things. Who could be sure what the future would hold?
He patted Lü Xiaoyu's head. "Hurry up and go to sleep."
"Tell me a story." Lü Xiaoyu grabbed the edge of the quilt with her two small hands, a little embarrassed.
Usually, Lü Xiaoyu showed a maturity that was different from a 10-year-old child, so sometimes Lü Shu would discuss things with her.
The saying that the children of the poor matured early was also suitable for Lü Xiaoyu. Although Lü Xiaoyu was often willful, she had long learned how to go to the market and act cute to bargain with the uncles and aunties.
At that time, saving one or two yuan was meaningful to their lives.
Lü Shu thought about it. He had been telling stories to Lü Xiaoyu from time to time since they were in the orphanage. However, he didn't read much and didn't have enough knowledge in his stomach. So, every time he heard Lü Xiaoyu ask him to tell a story, he would have a headache … What was he going to tell?!
He didn't notice the smile on Lü Xiaoyu's lips. It seemed that her original purpose wasn't to listen to the story, but to see Lü Shu sitting by the bed and making up stories with a conflicted expression. Then, she could let him sit beside her for a while longer.
Lü Xiaoyu knew that making up children's stories was Lü Shu's weakness. His strength was being cheap …
"Ahem." Lü Shu cleared his throat. "It's a long story. There was a family of three brown bears living in the forest. One day, the mother bear saw that the little bear's nails were too long, so she cut them. Guess what happened next?"
Lü Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment. "How is it?"
"It became a small fry, hahahahaha!"
"Negative emotions from Lü Xiaoyu, + 333 …"
…
The altitude of Xi Jing City was higher than that of the mainland. In a normal sense, it was already considered a highland area. However, most tourists did not have to worry too much about altitude sickness when they came here. It was not as serious as they thought.
It was midsummer, and the temperature difference between day and night was huge. The plants on the streets were already lush, but people in jackets could still be seen hurrying along. Of course, girls in short skirts could also be seen.
This was a rather novel scene for Lü Shu. It was as if they were not in the same season.
The climate of Luoyang City was actually very strange. Everyone said that the four seasons in Kunming were like spring. Lü Shu's summary of the climate of Luoyang City was that spring was like the four seasons …
At this time, when Lü Shu and Lü Xiaoyu were already making great strides on the road of cultivation, the changes in temperature no longer had much effect on them.
The two of them only brought a change of thin jacket, which was purely for protection from the wind. If they really wore short-sleeved shirts, they would not feel so cold.
There were not many people walking on the street. Lü Xiaoyu stuffed his small hand into Lü Shu's big hand, looked up and asked, "Is Quan 'er Head Goat Giblets Soup really that good?"
"Since everyone says it's good, there must be something special about it. Since we are here, we have to try it. Anyway, we have free time today. We will only be leaving with the group tomorrow. Let's drink goat giblets soup in the morning, go to Mo Street at noon, and eat goat neck at night!" Lü Shu said cheerfully.
In any case, with Lü Xiaoyu, the main point was to eat.
After entering Quan 'er Head Restaurant, Lü Shu suddenly realized that the reviews were not as exaggerated as they said. They said that there would be a long queue, that it would be gone if they were late, and that the cheapest bowl was 6 yuan …
They were all liars. There was no need to queue, and the cheapest bowl was 20 yuan.
"Boss, three bowls of 20 yuan for three pancakes!" Lü Shu paid happily.
The boss was stunned for a moment. He looked at Lü Shu and Lü Xiaoyu. "Three bowls?"
"Yes, three bowls," Lü Shu confirmed.
One of the bowls was for Xiaoxiong Xu. In the past, Lü Shu would definitely not bear to drink so much. He would even rather drink a bowl with Xiaoxiong Xu …
But now, it was different. One word stood out — extravagant!
When Xiaoxiong Xu heard that Lü Shu bought three bowls on Lü Xiaoyu's head, he was so touched that he almost thought that Lü Shu was a good person!
Almost!
Lü Shu waited at the place where the soup was served. He happily watched as the chef inside worked. "Put more meat, and more, and more …"
The chef in the kitchen had a dark expression. "I'll put a sheep's head for you, okay?"
"That's not necessary …"
Lü Shu carried the soup and went to meet up with Lü Xiaoyu. In the end, a strange scene appeared in Quan 'er Head's Haggis Soup shop. A young man who looked like a high school student was leading a beautiful young lady to drink haggis soup. The young lady was holding a bowl that was even bigger than her face. It was very comical no matter how one looked at it.
And beside them, there was a little squirrel scooping up meat with a single chopstick …
Although spirit pets were rare, everyone had seen more of them now.
The difference from before was that in the past, when people saw this scene, they would probably immediately take photos and post them online. But now, they were discussing it in whispers.
Lü Shu never intended to hide his identity as a Dao Yuan Class student. His military officer ID was in his hands, so there was no point in sneaking around. It wasn't like it was shameful.
Seeing that the meat in Lü Xiaoyu's bowl was about to disappear, Lü Shu was afraid that there wasn't enough meat in Lü Xiaoyu's bowl, so … he scooped half of Xiaoxiong Xu's bowl for her.
Xiaoxiong Xu: "???" Why didn't you scoop up your own?! Are you pretending to be a good person with my meat?!
"Negative emotions from Xiaoxiong Xu, + 1 + 1 + 1 …"
Lü Shu looked at Xiaoxiong Xu coldly. "Did you not learn how to read again last night?"
Xiaoxiong Xu immediately lowered her head and busied herself. For things like meat, if it was gone, then so be it. I, Xiaoxiong Xu, won't argue with you!
…
When he was strolling around Xi Jing City during the day, Lü Shu felt that there was actually not much difference between this city and the mainland.
He also encountered several people on the street with spirit power fluctuations, and all of them looked like students. It seemed that they were very likely to be students from Xi Jing City's Dao Yuan Class.
For this reason, he deliberately observed them, wanting to see the cultivation level of Xi Jing City. Basically, they were the same as Yuan Liangtuo and the others, fluctuating around Level E. There wasn't even a peak Level E.
However, on second thought, it wasn't like the time when all the students were present outside the ruins. At this time, there was no point in observing a few people, and it couldn't be used as an accurate reference.
Speaking of which, ever since Xiaoxiong Xu ate the Marrow-Cleansing Fruit last time, his strength had slowly increased to the early Level E. When he felt that he was about to enter the middle stage, he finally stopped.
Lü Shu was a little confused. Could it be that this kind of spirit pet only needed to have spiritual intelligence to slowly increase its strength until it reached the bottleneck of spiritual intelligence?
Didn't that mean that these spirit pets were the easiest cultivators? They could kill human cultivators in a matter of minutes!
Of course, they still couldn't compare to Lü Xiaoyu … At least, their growth speed was far slower than Lü Xiaoyu's.
Lü Shu felt that the truth might not be like this. Otherwise, why would Xiaoxiong Xu be the only one who became stronger among the many squirrels in the fruit forest?
Or could it be that … aptitude was also important among spirit pets?
Thinking of this, the way Lü Shu looked at Xiaoxiong Xu was a little strange … Could it be that this coward was also a genius among the squirrels?!
When Xiaoxiong Xu saw Lü Shu looking at it strangely, it almost shivered.
It hurriedly crawled into Lü Xiaoyu's pocket. Although Lü Xiaoyu always used it as a pillow or played with it, it was nothing compared to Lü Shu …
Life was really hard for a rat …
At night, after returning to the hotel, Lü Shu exchanged another Marrow-Cleansing Fruit and handed it to Xiaoxiong Xu. He wanted to see if Xiaoxiong Xu would really have a change in strength if it continued to have spiritual intelligence.
In the end, when the Marrow-Cleansing Fruit that Xiaoxiong Xu yearned for day and night was handed to it, it looked at Lü Shu with an expression that said, "Why would you be so kind?"
"Do you want to eat it?" Lü Shu's face darkened. I gave you the Marrow-Cleansing Fruit, and you're still being reserved?
Xiaoxiong Xu immediately took the Marrow-Cleansing Fruit and ate it. This was what it longed for the most!
After eating the first Marrow-Cleansing Fruit, it shed all its gray fur and turned into a pure white squirrel. It looked very different, and it often walked on the street and made the girls passing by look cute.
At this time, after eating the second Marrow-Cleansing Fruit, its fur didn't shed anymore. Instead, a small tuft of fur on the top of its head grew a little purple!
The purple mixed with the white was very sparse, but it was unusually eye-catching.
Just from the appearance, Lü Shu understood that Xiaoxiong Xu had once again evolved.
As for how far Xiaoxiong Xu could grow, it would have to continue to be observed.
The next morning, Lü Shu took Lü Xiaoyu to the designated meeting place of the travel agency, Xinning Road Bus Terminal.
When they arrived there, the travel agency's minibus and the tour guide holding a red flag were already waiting there. Lü Shu went over to greet the male tour guide, and after reporting his name, he continued to wait on the side.
However, the driver and the tour guide cast their eyes on Lü Xiaoyu from time to time. The little girl was very beautiful, but the white squirrel with purple fur on its head was too eye-catching. They had never seen such a squirrel before.
Lü Xiaoyu glanced at them and didn't pay attention to them. When the tour guide was glanced at, he didn't know why, but he had an inexplicable feeling that he was very stupid …
At this time, the entrance of Xinning Road Bus Terminal began to bustle with people. Lü Shu suddenly saw a somewhat familiar figure coming over, but he didn't remember seeing this person.
However, when the person took out his ID card from his backpack to confirm his identity with the tour guide, Lü Shu suddenly saw a smear of color in the person's backpack.
This was … the linen cloth that Li Dian used to wrap the gourd that night!
