Chapter 1216: Repay This World For Being Warm
At night, Lu Xiaoyu made dinner at home. Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao ate hungrily. It was not that the food served in the Longmen Fortress was not delicious. They felt that the atmosphere at Lu Shu’s place was better.
Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao did not have many friends. Furthermore, the former species research specialization was like a rope that connected everyone together.
They were not simply friends. They were more like a family, if Lu Xiaoyu did not collect fees for their meals.
As Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao played games in the living room, they asked, “Brother Shu, what are your plans after this?”
Lu Shu sat at one side and thought about it. Then, he said, “I will clarify some things with Zhang Weiyu and the rest. Then, we will wait for the space pathway to open and get rid of Duanmu Huangqi. After that, we will go to the palace.”
Chen Zuan’s eyes lit up. “The palace? I heard from Zhang Weiyu and the rest that the palace is bustling. There are many beautiful women there, right?”
“Are you that desperate? Are you going to the Luniverse to find someone because you can’t find anyone on Earth?” Lu Shu was puzzled.
“Brother Shu, don’t be mistaken. It’s not that I cannot find a partner.” Chen Zuan explained, “My exes can play mahjong together!”
Lu Shu was happy. “That’s only four. Seeing how sick in the mind you are, I assumed that you have over ten exes.”
“Brother Shu, you are ignorant.” Chen Zuan laughed. “I am talking about mahjong!”
“Oh.” Lu Shu slapped the back of Chen Zuan’s head. “Why can’t you find a group of heroes?!”
Cheng Qiuqiao cheerfully killed Chen Zuan’s character in the game as he laughed. “Brother Shu, you might not know this. Others post online that they are going out with their partner, and ask whether anyone has suggestions on where to go. Brother Zuan is different. He will post that he wants to go out with his partner, and asks whether anyone has any partner recommendations…”
“Do you have the right to say that? Aren’t you single too?” Chen Zuan had been thoroughly humiliated. He was so embarrassed that he grew angry. “How can someone with such solid beliefs like mine be not able to find a partner?”
Lu Shu was silent for two seconds. “Zuan, did you know? Appearances are more important than beliefs…”
Chen Zuan was speechless.
“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +666!”
Lu Xiaoyu started to carry dishes out. Lu Shu kicked the sofa and shocked Chen Zuan. “Go and help her!”
“Oh.” Chen Zuan earnestly went to help.
The four of them gathered at the table, revealing how small the table was. In the past, only Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu sat at this table and ate. It was more than enough for them.
But now, Chen Zuan, Cheng Qiuqiao, and Little Fury were here. The table seemed a bit cramped.
But Lu Shu suddenly felt that this was rather good. After all, it was more cozy.
Lu Shu looked at Lu Xiaoyu and realized that she was looking at them expectantly. “Hurry and try the food. Is it good?”
“Delicious, delicious.” Chen Zuan ate a piece of meat. “Where is this ingredient from? What kind of meat is this? Why is it so fragrant?”
“Bear meat.” Lu Shu explained, “There was a Rank One bear in the forbidden land of the remains. Ordinary people will be healed of their ailments when they eat it. Their lifespan will also increase. Under normal circumstances, they will become stronger, much stronger if they are lucky.”
Lu Xiaoyu reminded him. “Uncle Li and the rest are ordinary people as well. We should give some to them.”
Lu Xiaoyu was the one who reminded Lu Shu. Uncle Li referred to the uncle that sold breakfast with Lu Shu. Back then, Lu Shu sold boiled eggs. At first, Uncle Li sold eggs at their breakfast stall. Later on, they stopped and gave the egg business to Lu Shu.
Some people had to eat eggs in the morning, or liked to eat eggs. They were used to buying eggs at the breakfast stall, but ever since Uncle Li stopped selling eggs, they had no choice but to buy from Lu Shu.
If it were not for Uncle Li’s actions, Lu Shu might not have been able to survive. After all, selling boiled eggs was not a lucrative business.
People were often tightly connected with the lives of others due to compassion. This was called a bond.
Lu Shu smiled. “I asked Zhong Yutang to help me find them and send the meat to them. Although they cannot train, they will not fall sick as easily with these ingredients. They will be able to live longer as well.”
Lu Shu suddenly realized that if the frightening creatures God Lu had nurtured were to be used by someone with strong murderous intent, they might be able to destroy a world. But if the creatures were used by a good person, they would be able to bring fortune to many people.
Lu Shu did not expect Lu Xiaoyu to remind him of this. He had changed, but so had Lu Xiaoyu. Right?
“And the refresher fruits.” Lu Xiaoyu said, “Do you remember that there were people in the Heavenly Network who had forcefully advanced in a war? Last time, although you gave out a batch of refresher fruits, not many people received them.”
Needless to say, every time Lu Shu heard of forceful advancement, he could not help but think about Liu Xiu protecting him during the battle at the Collection of Gods. He would also think about Zhao Yongchen and the rest who had protected the shops in Africa.
He solemnly nodded his head. “I have to.”
Lu Shu suddenly realized that Lu Xiaoyu was very holistic in her thinking. It could be considered as careful consideration. She was probably worried about what they would do if they went to the Luniverse and never returned.
“Lu Xiaoshu.” Lu Xiaoyu asked as she ate, “The third level of your celestial map is Sparrow Shade, right?”
“Yes.” Lu Shu nodded his head. “In terms of mass killing power, it is my greatest trump card, along with the lightning aurablades. Although I do not have as many strands of Sparrow Shade as lightning aurablades, with only 2304 strands, the lightning aurablade can only be used once. They have to regenerate for one day before being used again. This does not apply to the Sparrow Shade. It is more suitable for long battles.”
“Wait.” Lu Xiaoyu furrowed her eyebrows. “Is that number correct?”
Lu Shu was dumbfounded. “I had 36 strands when I finished the third level of nebula. When I lit up the first star, I had 72 strands…”
“Then shouldn’t you have 4608 strands now?” Lu Xiaoyu asked after doing some quick mental calculations.
Lu Shu awkwardly laughed. “Ha ha ha ha, is that so?!”
Chen Zuan slapped the table and laughed out loud. “Brother Shu, you pride yourself as a mugger!”
But the moment he finished speaking, Lu Shu’s expression turned dark. He turned to Chen Zuan and asked, “Is your math very good?”
Chen Zuan instantly grew weak, but he did not back down. “At least I can add and subtract numbers correctly under 10000.”
Lu Shu was silent for two seconds. Then, he laughed coldly. “Then what is 2341.91929 plus 3182.10399?”
Chen Zuan was dumbfounded. “What kind of number is that? Brother Shu, are you serious?”
“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +666.666!”
Lu Shu was also dumbfounded. This was his first time seeing decimals in distress points…
