Spare Me, Great Lord!-Novel2

Chapter 227: Kumbum Monastery (Part One)

Lu Shu looked at the other party’s identification card seriously. This university student Shu Li’s full name was actually Wang Shuli. Lu Shu felt that there was something weird with this name previously.

Shu Li was a name derived from a poem. Shu represented grain, while Li meant lush and flourishing. Most people never heard of the words Shu Li, but many people would have heard the lines of this poem.

Lu Shu thought that the person who came up with this name for a girl must have been really depressed…

He looked at the gender twice to confirm it before heaving a sigh of relief. It was good that she was a girl, or it would be an extremely arduous experience to sit beside a cross-dresser for the next 9 days.

Although Lu Shu respected the decision of cross-dressers, he really couldn’t accept it in his heart. historical

Wang Shuli and her company were students from Shuzhou Music school. They were out because it’s the holidays and she even conveniently brought her brother who had just finished his high school exams and had nothing to do.

Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu had always liked Shuzhou. Being greedy for food, Lu Xiaoyu couldn’t resist the temptations that were in Shuzhou. Previously, when they were discussing where to go on their holiday, the two heavily discussed locations were Qingzhou and Shuzhou.

“You guys really need to go to Shuzhou to have fun when you’re free. I’ll bring you two around. Then, we could bring you guys for some coldpot fish, noodles, steamboat…” Wang Shuli’s eyes were glowing with majesty as she laughed while introducing all the food from her hometown.

Lu Xiaoyu was salivating quietly at the side. Wang Shuli looked at Lu Shu curiously, “Do you really not recognize me?”

Lu Shu was caught by surprise, “I might be offending you but… I really don’t know you.”

“It’s alright,” Wang Shuli smiled. No wonder he thought that she was a guy when she had yet to introduce herself.

“What do you guys learn in school,” Lu Shu asked out of curiosity.

“Music composition,” Wang Shuli looked at Lu Shu, “Which instruments do you know?”

Lu Shu stayed quiet for a moment, “Does whistling count?”

“From Wang Shuli’s distress, +13…” Lu Shu could confirm now that there was nothing suspicious about the other party.

Wang Shuli examined at Lu Shu seriously, “I thought you were going to say that you didn’t know anything, why are you so illogical…?”

Lu Shu scratched his head, “Actually, I can’t even whistle. But I don’t ever back out…”

“I’m really curious. Aren’t your parents worried that the two of you are so far from home?” Wang Shuli asked in curiosity. Lu Shu turned around to see her slender and fair neck, with a beautiful black necklace hanging on it. It was mysteriously beautiful.

But he recollected himself and shook his head, “We don’t have parents.”

“I’m sorry,” Wang Shuli was stunned and changed the topic quickly, “Do you know that there are actually four daoyuan students on our bus?”

Lu Shu pretended to be curious and surprise, “Are you for real?”

“Many people know it. They’re not really keeping it a secret. There, on the third and fourth row on my side. Those four university students!” Wang Shuli said as she gazed at the front.

Lu Shu’s expression turned weird, “Are daoyuan students very impressive?”

“Of course they are,” Wang Shuli looked at Lu Shu as if he was ignorant, “Some people in my school were selected to be in daoyuan class and when they came back occasionally, they’ll be treated like celebrities and worshipped by others. I even saw a girl lifting up a podium easily! And the status of daoyuan students is really high now. They are all second lieutenants now and greatly revered.”

Lu Shu acknowledged her words with an ‘mm’ but didn’t know how to respond. Now that Li Dian was on the bus, he couldn’t say that not only was he a daoyuan student, he was one of the highest ranked military personnel within daoyuan classes in the country.

Actually, Lu Shu didn’t meet the criteria to reach a lieutenant previously. Cao Qingci naturally attained the rank because of her contributions and her identity as a tier A prodigy. As for Jiang Shuyi, it was even more obvious as her brother was a big shot within the heavenly network.

And being of tier F aptitude, the only reason he attained the rank was that he really handed over too many spears…

And Xi Fei had privately said that initially, superiors wanted to reward him with training methods, but Zhong Yutang managed to get the military rank for him.

In truth, the military rank came with resources. It was an advantage to have a higher rank in the long term.

Wan Shuli, seeing his half-hearted response, was curious, “Are you upset that you weren’t selected to be in daoyuan class? Don’t think of it this way! You’re just like me, and my dream is to write wonderful compositions and sing great songs. If they really did make me join the heavenly network, I’d be troubled over trying to reject them! Who knows if that crappy place has any culture groups…”

Culture groups… Lu Shu didn’t know how to react. This way of thinking was indeed unique.

He thought carefully… The heavenly network probably didn’t have culture groups.

In actual fact, the situation depicted by Wang Shuli was actually quite normal. Some people harbored dreams as they grew up. They might be willing to be practitioners should they be forced to give up their dreams to in order to train.

On the other hand, Lu Shu obviously viewed training as the most important in his heart.

Even when the chi clouds occasionally caused him troubles, he would be happy with his training progress.

And up until now, Lu Shu was slowly able to get used to controlling the chi cloud. He wasn’t as clumsy and flustered as he was at the start.

Lu Shu laughed and explained, “I’m not upset, really.”

He was improving on his path of training, what’s there to be upset about?

He turned to look at the scenery outside of the window. Lu Xiaoyu was next to him, leaning against the window as she looked at the passing scenery with intense curiosity.

The scenery was ever-changing as the woods morphed into crisp, green plains. Occasionally, even cattle and sheep could be seen eating the grass on the plains.

The plains were different from their expectations. The plains one often imagined would be flat and endless.

And over here, it was more like green mountains with humps and bumps.

Lu Shu suddenly thought. He was indeed an important figure of daoyuan class in the eyes of an ordinary person.

But over here, no one knew about him killing countless skeletons in the remains. Neither did anyone here know how flamboyant he looked with all those gold chains and watches previously…

Since his destiny had changed, he had to be determined on his path.

Although Lu Shu didn’t say that he was upset, Wang Shuli felt that something was wrong. He had a look of frustration, but she decided against continuing on that subject. After all, not bringing up depressing topics is a form of courtesy.

But she was becoming more curious on whether Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu were orphans. Isn’t it extremely arduous for a brother to raise his sister on his own? But it didn’t seem like it. If it was really extremely arduous, they wouldn’t be able to afford to come on this holiday.
