Chapter 579

Two days before the Lunar New Year, Lu Shu came to Liuhai Lane in the Capital . Afterwards, he stayed there and did not leave…

Lu Shu felt that since Lu Xiaoyu was at military training, there was no way to celebrate the New Year . He had been tricked by Nie Ting as well . He could not enjoy his New Year, and he was not letting Nie Ting enjoy his either…

Yes, Lu Shu felt that he was badly battered because of Nie Ting . Nie Ting knew how Hai Gongzi was, yet all he told Lu Shu was to be patient . He did not say that Hai Gongzi was a five-taloned Panlong 1 !

Nie Ting suddenly thought of something . “What did you say happened to Hai Gongzi?”

Ha ha, of course Lu Shu could not say that he imprisoned Hai Gongzi in the Chaos Abyss . He could only laugh, “Rest assured, he is not dead . But he won’t be out for a while . ”

Shi Xuejin gasped in shock . His father had used the sword before, thus he knew how Hai Gongzi was like .

Seeing how Lu Shu had come over to say this, he had probably imprisoned Hai Gongzi somewhere, right? Since when did Lu Shu have this kind of impressive skill?

“You…” Shi Xuejin hesitated for a long time but eventually decided to ask .

Lu Shu’s expression changed . “What about the millet gruel?”

“Isn’t it cooking?” Shi Xuejin was speechless . “Oh, it’s ready!”

Shi Xuejin and Nie Ting looked at each other . They had a rough idea of what had happened . They were very certain that Hai Gongzi could not attack his owner . There would be a very long self-cultivation period after attacking one’s owner . It did more harm than good .

This was not the first time they had seen something like this . But Hai Gongzi was familiar with Shi Xuejin’s father . He had spoken to Shi Xuejin’s father about this before .

Back then, Hai Gongzi said that he would not use this unless he was extremely desperate .

But from the look of things…

Nie Ting and Shi Xuejin were dumbfounded . What did Lu Shu do? How did he drive Hai Gongzi to such an extreme in just a few days?

After a while, Shi Xuejin came back with a bowl of millet gruel . “Where did you send Hai Gongzi to?”

Lu Shu did not answer his question . “Can you bring over a plate of salted vegetables? Do you have salted vegetables?”

Shi Xuejin was speechless .

“From Shi Xuejin’s distress, +666!”

He and Nie Ting had seen through everything . Lu Shu was just in a bad mood and wanted to make things difficult for them!

Shi Xuejin looked at Nie Ting . Didn’t I say we should give him an enrollment letter and let him go to school? What do we do now?

Nie Ting glanced at Shi Xuejin . Didn’t you ask me to give the Cheng Ying sword to him? I am not bearing the responsibility .

Lu Shu looked at Nie Ting before looking at Shi Xuejin . “What are you two doing, looking at each other like that?”

If others knew that he could speak to two Heavenly Kings just like that, they would likely piss their pants . But Lu Shu did not care . He was in control of these two people, he knew they were definitely feeling guilty . He was certainly in a bad mood . The two of them had come over just before the New Year!

That night, Shi Xuejin got Lu Shu to sleep in the room where he had recuperated back then . Shi Xuejin could finally heave a sigh of relief . Lu Shu had kicked up a row the entire afternoon . Nie Ting fell into a deep sleep in a matter of minutes . They were thinking of how to fight back every single second .

All of them had returned to their own rooms to sleep . But before dawn, Shi Xuejin heard a noise coming from outside…

Bang! Crackle!

Bang! Crackle!

Someone was playing with firecrackers!

Shi Xuejin and Nie Ting were jolted awake from their sleep . They were dumbfounded . Weren’t fireworks banned in the Capital a long time ago? Who was so daring to do so? And it seemed like the origin of the sound was close by…

Wait . There was someone playing with firecrackers in the courtyard . Lu Shu!

“From Nie Ting’s distress, +999!”

“From Shi Xuejin’s distress, +999!”

You bastard with no morals! Why are you playing with fireworks in the courtyard at night? Shi Xuejin tucked in his clothes and went out . He saw Lu Shu and angrily said, “What are you doing? Didn’t you know that firecrackers are banned in the Capital?”

Lu Shu was unhappy as well . “Then it won’t feel like it’s the New Year . ”

Shi Xuejin felt that something was not right . He looked at his watch . “3am?! No one plays with firecrackers at 3am! People usually set them off at 12, midnight . Only you would play with them at 3am! What, does your family only stay up until 3am on New Year’s Eve? Don’t you wait until the sky lights up?”

“From Shi Xuejin’s distress, +999!”

“No worries, I will stay up until morning . I have bought a lot of firecrackers,” Lu Shu laughed .

Shi Xuejin thought about it . Something else was not right . “It’s two days before the New Year! It’s too early to play with firecrackers!”

If one set off firecrackers in the restricted areas during the New Year, they would be fined . But Lu Shu did not believe that anyone would dare to ask Nie Ting to pay a fine .

Shi Xuejin looked on helplessly as he saw Lu Shu take out a box of firecrackers from the Seal of Lands . Just now, he had been playing with firecrackers . Now, he had changed to fireworks…

Shi Xuejin looked at the label on the box of firecrackers… a hundred thousand firecrackers…

Shi Xuejin went back into the house and made a call . “Hello, police? Can you come over? There is someone playing with firecrackers… Yes, yes, yes! Hurry up and fine this person . The address is 17 Liuhai Lane . Yes, yes, yes, it’s Heavenly King Nie’s house . No worries, Heavenly King Nie will support you!”

The leader of the Heavenly Network was forced to make a police report!

Seeing this, Lu Shu kept his firecrackers . Shi Xuejin laughed loudly . “Little guy, are you still scared?”

He did not actually call the police . It would not be good if this blew up . Shi Xuejin only wanted to scare Lu Shu .

Before Shi Xuejin could even finish laughing, Lu Shu sat by the stone table and looked up . He opened his mouth and said, “Bang! Crackle!”

“Bang! Crackle!”

Shi Xuejin was speechless .

Were you a human firecracker?

Were you performing vocal mimicry? What were you doing?! Have you gone mad?

Shi Xuejin was an ordinary person . He could not take these consecutive sleepless nights!

“From Shi Xuejin’s distress, +999!”

The next morning, Shi Xuejin had heavy dark eye circles . He looked at Nie Ting . “Hurry up and enroll him into school . Let him go…”

Nie Ting shook his head . “I’m afraid just an admission letter would not be able to solve the problem now…”

The night before the New Year, Shi Xuejin was prepared to call the police if Lu Shu played with firecrackers again . But Lu Shu was nowhere to be found .

“Where did Lu Shu go?” Shi Xuejin asked curiously .

“Babaoshan Cemetery,” Nie Ting said calmly . “This is probably his main aim coming to the Capital . ”

Lu Shu stood before Liu Xiu’s grave . He gently placed a bowl of Zha Jiang Mian2 in front of the grave . “My friend, you must be lonely spending the New Year here . I have brought a bowl of Zha Jiang Mian . Thank you for bravely stepping forward then . If it were not for you, I may have been the one in this grave, not you . ”

Lu Shu sat by the stairway and chattered on . “I have visited your younger cousins’ family . After you were gone, I told your younger cousin that I would be his elder cousin from then on . But it doesn’t seem like he is grateful…”

“Brother, if you have no more worries, hurry up and be reincarnated . If we really become comrades in our next life, we can see our flourishing country and eat Zha Jiang Mian together . Give me a wink when that time comes . If not, I am afraid that I will not recognize you…”
