While Wen Zaifou ate, Lu Shu and Sakurai Yaeko sat by the side and watched him eat. Wen Zaifou did not even seem embarra.s.sed. He wolfed down all the food.
Those who did not know would think that a Lord of Heaven from the Luniverse was very poor, but Lu Shu knew that Wen Zaifou was very powerful and influential. It was just that the Pract.i.tioners there did not pay much attention to food…
Lu Shu loved Sichuan and Hunan cuisine, but Sichuan cuisine did not look like this in the past. It had slowly evolved.
There had been a movement to resist temptations and abide by heavenly principles in the Luniverse. Many Pract.i.tioners felt that since they were stuck at a bottleneck, it was not their fault. There were too many temptations in the outside world. Their bodies were not clean as they fed on cereals and food grains…
They felt that they were not able to advance as they had not resisted temptations and abided by heavenly principles. Deities did not have the desires of ordinary people.
Many Pract.i.tioners in the Luniverse felt that they had to give up on various human emotions and desires in order to train.
But now, the Luniverse was normal. Why? It was because they could no longer resist… they could not bear it!
If a few people were able to resist temptation and abide by heavenly principles, Lu Shu would believe this. If all the people of the Luniverse were able to do so, then it was nonsense.
Not many people had such strong willpower. Thus, under normal circ.u.mstances, those with the willpower would be able to succeed more easily. As long as you persevered, you would be able to rise above others. You would only be able to portray your natural talents if you had enough willpower.
Thus, it was normal that temptation was hard to control. Furthermore, Lu Shu felt that this had nothing to do with being able to advance. Although it was said that one had to be wise, pure, and determined, this was simply an att.i.tude to be pursued.
While the Pract.i.tioners in the Luniverse were pursuing the highest level of training, ordinary humans pursued their desire for good food.
Lu Shu looked at Wen Zaifou. Typical people would only be able to finish a bowl of noodles after many mouthfuls, but Wen Zaifou was different. He was able to eat an entire bowl in one mouthful…
He felt that tonight was somewhat magical. A Lord of Heaven from the Luniverse ate and drank without consideration for his appearance. Wen Zaifou’s appearance was rather dignified, especially when he wore his black ceremonial dress.
Back then, when Wen Zaifou had appeared on King Lu Mountain, he was tyrannical towards the aristocrats. But now, Wen Zaifou was like a childish ghost.
“I heard that there are a lot of fun places here. I am also rather curious about this world. Bring me around to play tomorrow,” said Wen Zaifou as he wiped his mouth.
Lu Shu thought about it and said, “I have things to do. I have to attend lessons, and…”
He had wanted to say that he had to capture the slave owners, but suddenly remembered that Wen Zaifou might have sent the slave owners here. Thus, he stopped talking.
Either way, he did not want to interact much with Wen Zaifou. After all, he was much stronger than Lu Shu was. Furthermore, Lu Shu did not know whether he was friend or foe. This uncertainty was like a ticking time bomb beside him. You did not know when it would explode!
Lu Shu calmly looked at Wen Zaifou. He wanted to see what Wen Zaifou would do after being rejected.
Wen Zaifou leaned back on the chair. “I don’t care. You will bring me out to play.”
Lu Shu was dumbfounded.
Could a Lord of Heaven be such a rascal? Could you be more mature? You were a Lord of Heaven!
“Is there any alcohol?” Wen Zaifou asked Lu Shu.
“Is there any more meat?” Wen Zaifou looked at Lu Shu after the alcohol came.
“Do you still have the dish that I ate just now?” Once again, Wen Zaifou looked at Lu Shu.
“Aren’t you eating? Let me tell you, many people in the Luniverse want to eat with me, but they have no right to do so. You are at a great advantage here…” Wen Zaifou boasted.
Lu Shu expressionlessly looked at Wen Zaifou as he asked one question after another. After all, he did not need to do anything. The Collection of G.o.ds had prepared everything. But Lu Shu was still thinking about what Wen Zaifou had said. He had kidnapped Lu Shu and Sakurai Yaeko to bring him out and play.
“Where am I going to sleep?” Wen Zaifou was full.
Sakurai Yaeko called Motegi Tos.h.i.+mitsu. Motegi Tos.h.i.+mitsu said politely, “h.e.l.lo, guest. We have prepared a place for you to stay at.”
Lu Shu admiringly looked at Motegi Tos.h.i.+mitsu. This female a.s.sistant was a relief. She had prepared a place for him to stay, in advance.
He wanted Wen Zaifou to hurry up and sleep. He had a headache when he looked at Wen Zaifou.
But Wen Zaifou was unhappy. “I will not go elsewhere to sleep. I will sleep in this courtyard.”
Lu Shu was puzzled. “Why?”
“What if you run away?” Wen Zaifou asked with a sense of justice, “If you run away, who will bring me to play?”
Sakurai Yaeko laughed. “There is another guest bedroom here. You can stay there.”
For some reason, Sakurai Yaeko suddenly felt that this was good. They were able to go out and play, right? She had been thinking about how to invite Lu Shu out, and Wen Zaifou had given her an opportunity…
Lu Shu was slightly annoyed. This young lady had betrayed him…
Wen Zaifou smiled and looked at Sakurai Yaeko. “Not bad, not bad.”
Lu Shu turned and went back to his room to sleep. He had to sort out what had happened. Suddenly, Wen Zaifou asked, “Hey. Have you taken out all the books in the library?”
“Books?” Lu Shu was dumbfounded. “What are books?”
Lu Shu suddenly realized that Wen Zaifou’s thoughts were a secret. He had directly concluded that the books had been arranged by Lu Shu. But Lu Shu could not admit this. On one hand, he did not want to be killed by Gu Lingfei. On the other hand, he did not want Wen Zaifou to know that he had seen his memorial…
“Stop acting. I haven’t said anything.” Wen Zaifou suddenly furrowed his eyebrows and said, “Let me take a look at Yu Fuyao and Qing Kong’s memorials. I have something good to give you.”
“What are memorials?” Lu Shu pretended not to know anything. He returned to his room and locked his door. When he locked his door, he realized that Motegi Tos.h.i.+mitsu, Sakurai Yaeko, and Wen Zaifou had taken out a map. They were planning their route for tomorrow…
Lu Shu sat in his room and supported his chin with his hands. Wen Zaifou seemed both good and evil. What he did depended on his mood.
But all these were not important. Most importantly, he had the strength to depend just on his emotions…
Had the slave owners been sent by Wen Zaifou? Lu Shu had no way to confirm this.
The next morning, Lu Shu was sleeping in his room when he heard Wen Zaifou shouting outside. “Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go! I’ve taken a look at the map and plan Miss Sakurai has prepared. I have decided. We will go to Osaka today! How about it? Not a bad plan, right? Then it’s decided!”
Lu Shu expressionlessly opened his door. He saw Wen Zaifou neatly dressed in a coat and carrying a camping bag. His ceremonial dress was gone. Lu Shu was speechless. “We are not climbing mountains in Osaka. Why are you dressed like this?”
Wen Zaifou did not seem to care. “This was a gift from Miss Sakurai. Of course I have to wear this. She said that we have to have fun to the fullest. I will be able to make use of these preparations one day!”
Lu Shu was dumbfounded. She knew that Sakurai Yaeko had betrayed him, but he did not expect her to betray him to this extent! What had they discussed after he returned to his room last night?!
