Chapter 1115: The Meaning of a Journey
Lu Shu’s expression darkened. This fellow caused Sakurai Yaeko to defect as soon as he arrived. Was this acceptable?
Of course, it was not quite accurate to say that he had caused her to defect. Although their objectives were different, they clicked well together, as the result was the same. They both wanted to go out and play.
Lu Shu had to think of a way to get rid of Wen Zaifou. After much thought, Lu Shu felt that if Wen Zaifou was here, he would affect his plans.
He had wanted to attract the slave owners here. All he had to do was wait for the fish to bite.
But Wen Zaifou had come. If Wen Zaifou was not the mastermind behind this, the slave owners would be very scared when they saw Wen Zaifou. How would Lu Shu be able to catch any fish?
Even if Lu Shu was well-known for his ferocity in the Luniverse, could he be more well-known than Wen Zaifou? After all, he was not stronger than a master...
Furthermore, Wen Zaifou’s mouth was very active. There was no rest. He even wished that Lu Shu would follow along with him. Lu Shu had to answer all of his questions...
In the morning, Motegi Toshimitsu led the members of the Collection of Gods to send food over. The fleet of cars had become deliverymen. Lu Shu sat at the stone tables. The more he thought about it, the more he got upset. He took the chance while Wen Zaifou was looking at the map to hide his chopsticks.
When it was time to eat, Wen Zaifou looked at the table in front of him. Suddenly, he asked Lu Shu, “Do you believe that I use my hands to eat?”
As long as Lu Shu said that he did not believe this, he would shout at Lu Shu to bring him a pair of chopsticks...
Lu Shu replied, “Yes.”
“From Wen Zaifou’s distress, +666!”
Lu Shu thought about it. Did Wen Zaifou really expect him to follow the script?
Then, Lu Shu looked on helplessly as Sakurai Yaeko passed Wen Zaifou a pair of chopsticks. Wen Zaifou laughed out loud. “Are you surprised?!”
Sakurai Yaeko said, “Everyone, please eat! We have a full schedule today!”
Lu Shu sighed. It was over. Everything was over!
He could humiliate Wen Zaifou, but he could not humiliate Sakurai Yaeko.
While Wen Zaifou ate, he looked at the plan Sakurai Yaeko had come up with. The members of the Collection of Gods would not follow them out today. They would not provide any support or assistance either. The three of them formed a small group and prepared to set off.
Sakurai Yaeko was like an ordinary girl. She stayed up to make the plans. She used colored pens to indicate where they would go, where they would eat, and where they would stay. She also wrote out their journey for the next three days...
It seemed as if the more detailed the plan was, the happier everyone would be. It was as if she had poured all her worries into this short trip.
The colorful plan was like Sakurai Yaeko’s colorful emotions. They were vibrant.
Wen Zaifou looked at the plan. “This Tenjin Matsuri[1] seems very interesting. Who are we celebrating? How strong is Tenjin? Is he stronger than a master?”
Lu Shu expressionlessly said, “No.”
“Then why did he dare to call himself Tenjin[2]?” Wen Zaifou was shocked. “What a way of speaking. Can you stand it?”
Lu Shu rudely replied, “There’s nothing I cannot stand. Don’t use your values from the Luniverse to judge the Earth. Here, gods are a part of religion. Strength is not a factor. Furthermore, I am not sure how strong the gods on Earth are. After all, no one has seen them before.”
The Earth was different from the Luniverse. Everyone knew that the King of Gods actually existed. Although he was rarely seen, everyone who passed by the palace of the King of Gods knew that he was inside the palace.
“Oh.” Wen Zaifou nodded his head. “Watching performances would be good too. Are they any good performances in the land of forefathers?”
Lu Shu was dumbfounded. He suddenly realized that the “land of forefathers” referred to China, not the Earth!
In the past, when someone talked about the land of forefathers, Lu Shu had thought that it referred to all the places on Earth. Now, it did not seem to be what he had expected. No wonder the Luniverse used Chinese!
“Why are you dumbfounded?” Wen Zaifou asked curiously, “Do you have any good performances in the land of forefathers?”
Lu Shu expressionlessly replied, “Breaking stones with your chest.”
“From Wen Zaifou’s distress, +299!”
Sakurai Yaeko sat by the side and watched the two of them quarrel with a warm gaze. Suddenly, she felt that Lu Shu was real and close.
Wen Zaifou stood up and carried his camping back. Suddenly, Motegi Toshimitsu came in and gave each of them an umbrella. “It is still raining in Osaka. Have fun.”
Wen Zaifou laughed. He did not take the umbrella. Instead, he said, “Relax. I can disperse the rain.”
Motegi Toshimitsu only knew that Wen Zaifou was very strong, but she did not know who he was or how strong he was.
When Motegi Toshimitsu heard what Wen Zaifou had said, she was dumbfounded. Disperse the rain and control the weather? What was this?
“Let’s go!” Wen Zaifou confidently walked out. Lu Shu followed behind, annoyed.
Sakurai Yaeko asked in a small voice, “Do you blame me?”
Lu Shu laughed bitterly. “How could I? Relax, I don’t blame you.”
Lu Shu felt Sakurai Yaeko’s caution. It was as if a dream had been shattered. How could he blame Sakurai Yaeko simply because of this?
“Hey, why don’t we just fly there?” Lu Shu shouted at Wen Zaifou.
“The meaning of a journey is in the route, not the destination,” said Wen Zaifou without looking back. “Someone who took all the food for himself said so, but I feel that it is very meaningful.”
The students of Kokushikan University suddenly realized that Sakurai Yaeko and Lu Shu were not in school. What was happening? Everyone looked forward to their interactions!
Suddenly, someone saw the news and gasped in shock. “Someone saw them on the Nozomi Shikansen. They are going to Osaka!”
“They are going out to play!” The students were shocked.
Needless to say, Sakurai Yaeko and Lu Shu were like celebrities to the students. They lived the lives that the students could only dream of. While everyone was attending lessons, they had gone to travel...
Many young people wanted to travel to distant places, but how many people could do so?
Sakurai Yaeko sat on the Nozomi Shinkansen. She was as happy as a bird. It was as if this was the first time she had been able to enjoy her youth.
For some reason, she was somewhat grateful to the slave owners, as these slave owners had given her this opportunity.
On the other hand, Lu Shu was not as happy. Wen Zaifou, who was sitting opposite him, clamored at the window and gasped in shock. “What is this? Is this a train? How does it move? Is this a magical weapon? Is a Practitioner controlling the train?”
Lu Shu looked at Wen Zaifou as if he was looking at an idiot...
