Chapter 95
There was nothing to say that night, on the second day, the sky was slightly bright, and a lot of people had already gathered in front of the inn.

"Today shopkeeper Lu is quite humane, he didn't enjoy the food in front of us."

"Yeah, that feeling is really tormented."

"Thinking of the verdant bamboo shoots, and the golden egg fried rice, my mouth is almost drooling." A head teacher standing in the front row of the line closed his eyes, intoxicated with himself.

The sound of "hissing" can be heard all around, and someone is sucking halazi.

"Oh, stop talking, my saliva is about to flow out!"

People thought and expected the inn to open until the usual opening time had passed.

"Huh? What's going on, haven't you opened the door yet?"

"That's right, it's all over. It stands to reason that the door should be opened."

"Is shopkeeper Lu still sleeping?"

"Otherwise, let's knock on the door, it's really possible."

"If I want to knock you, I won't." The head teacher in the first row shook his head like a rattle, and knocked on the door of shopkeeper Lu?He didn't dare yet.

It's not just him, no one present dared to knock on the door of the inn, you know, getting angry is something that everyone has, what if you really get angry with shopkeeper Lu and don't entertain yourself in the future?Do you want to watch others enjoy food every day?

No!This situation is absolutely impossible!
This head teacher has limited talent, and now he has reached the peak of his cultivation in the late stage of transformation. He can no longer break through, and he has no pursuit. Another pursuit suddenly appeared in my life, that is to enjoy the food cooked by shopkeeper Lu every day.

Apart from him, there are other headmasters who have this kind of thinking. It is conceivable that one day later, the two factions will fight to the death for those spirit stones. The reason is that they can’t afford to eat in the inn. It will make people laugh if you say it. Judging from the current trend, it is not impossible for this kind of thing to happen in the future.

"Wait, let's wait a little longer."

"The shopkeeper Lu may be too tired. Food is what people look forward to, and it's normal to wait."

Everyone continued to stay in front of the inn. Although they comforted themselves, it would be okay to wait, but it could be seen from their eyes that they were anxious. Once some delicious food was tasted, it was difficult to quit. The food in the inn was like this .

But until noon, there was still no sign of the inn opening.

"If shopkeeper Lu doesn't open the door again, I might starve to death here."

"I also feel very hungry, but I don't want to eat anything other than the food cooked by shopkeeper Lu."

"Yes."

Everyone continued to wait, only to see a fat man staggering towards him from a distance from the street.

"Don't wait any longer, shopkeeper Lu has gone on a long journey, and he won't be back for a while."

This fat man is naturally Dugu Fugui.

"Huh? Are you traveling far away?"

"No way?"

"You fat man, don't deceive us, I think you just want to find a reason to deceive us all, so that you can stay in the first place, right?"

"Cut, believe it or not." The fat man gestured with his middle finger. Although he himself didn't know what it meant, but seeing that shopkeeper Lu would make this gesture every time he "speaks rudely", the fat man guessed it wasn't a good meaning. .

In the abandoned city, many mortal masters lined up at the entrance of the inn, anxiously waiting for the inn to open, and as the object of their waiting, Lu Cheng had already arrived in the Fire Kingdom.

The weather in the country of fire is hot, and the scene of the Flame Mountain in Journey to the West reappears in Lu Cheng's mind all the time.

"Brother, when will we arrive at the imperial capital?" Lu Cheng rolled up his sleeves, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and asked the person in front of him.

The person he called "senior brother" was Shi Huo.

Last night, just as Lu Cheng stepped out of the inn and was about to go on a long journey against the darkness, he was naturally teleported to a strange place.

The scene at that time was that Lu Cheng appeared on a mountain road inexplicably, the sky was covered by dark clouds, and only a little bit of starlight fell, and a hot feeling spread all over his body in an instant. A few words for the hero to spare his life.

The person who said this was Shi Huo, who was [-] meters tall, dressed as a scholar in Longshuo's ancient times, and carried a bamboo building on his back, which contained two or three books and a flute.

Don't look at others as tall and powerful, but they are very timid.

According to Lu Cheng's thinking, the Fire Country is a place with strong folk customs just by its name, but it is not the case. In this world where monks are supreme, the status of the country is very small, and the Fire Country does not favor martial arts, but especially respects literature. .

If you want to serve as an official in the Fire Nation, you must have a good skill. In recent years, Ci music has become the most important point. These Huo Nation people don’t look at everyone, but in fact all their skills are in reciting poems and odes. It would be even better to have one or two musical instruments at the meeting. This kind of atmosphere also made everyone look like a literati.

Therefore, when Lu Cheng appeared on the mountain road in the middle of the night, shirtless, Shi Huo's first reaction was, robbery!

After explaining for a long time, until dawn today, Shi Huo reluctantly accepted the fact that Lu Cheng is a cook.

"At this speed, we can arrive tonight."

"Tonight? So fast?" Lu Cheng was slightly startled. If calculated in this way, the time spent was directly shortened by 80.00%. Wouldn't it be possible to play happily for a few days?

"It's already too slow. Tonight, there will be a poetry and prose competition in the Palace. If you perform well and are favored by the prince, you can get an official job without taking the exam. Those who take the official path are now possible. I'm ready to enter the city, so I need to hurry up."

Although Shi Huo said so, he walked more and more slowly. He was already weak and the mountain road was so difficult, which made him very tired.

"Brother, from the meaning of your words, it seems that it will be faster to follow the official path?"

"That's for sure. The official road is straight. Not only is the distance shorter, but it can also speed up your feet, unlike this damn mountain road." He was very resentful.

"Then why didn't Senior Brother take the official route?" Lu Cheng was puzzled.

"Hey, it's not so easy to go." Shi Huo sighed heavily, and then explained to Lu Cheng, "We were born in poverty, and studied hard for more than ten years since we were young, so that we can enter the imperial capital to take the exam one day. But some people were born with a golden spoon in their mouths, were taught by their masters when they were young, and have the opportunity to go to the imperial capital every year. On the official road, there are some children of great masters. If we walk there, we will definitely be excluded. It’s not uncommon for people to look at people’s eyes and act, and it’s not uncommon for people like me to bear it, so they naturally walk up the mountain road, even if they are tired, they don’t want to suffer from the bird’s anger.”

"Oh, I understand." Lu Cheng nodded, the sense of superiority of the rich can be found anywhere.
