Which heavenly king would be here?

Li Yixiao? It can’t be, he was too far away. It seemed like only the two heavenly kings guarding Southern Tibet and North of Jiang could be here. Now that the strength of the Indians has greatly diminished, there wasn’t any real cause of concern for foreign infiltrators. So could it be that priest from Nanzang?

In reality, Lu Shu felt that the heavenly network’s planning was quite interesting. Although the population of Tibet consisted of largely practicing Buddhists, they a.s.signed a Taoist priest to take charge of the area?

Nie Ting’s plans were indeed really difficult to predict.

When he was back, tour guide w.a.n.g was surrounded by the aunties, “Why are we stuck here? We all paid to come and have fun, not to suffer!”

w.a.n.g Genji was crushed and troubled, “I’ll inform the company of this situation and give everyone a satisfactory response!”

He went to make the call to the company upon finis.h.i.+ng. It was really unfortunate for the tour group to b.u.mp into such a situation. Apart from possibly refunding the tourists, they might still need to make additional compensations because the time spent on being stuck on this tour was quite substantial.

Lu Shu went over to w.a.n.g Shuli and realized that their voices were already hoa.r.s.e from half a day of singing… they weren’t singing or playing their instruments. In fact, they looked hungry and dejected.

This place was in the middle of nowhere and wasn’t near a city, there wasn’t even a place to eat at. All that Lu Shu said to Li Dian previously were just jokes meant to be pulled on Li Dian.

Before he went over to find out what was going on, w.a.n.g Shuli and her pals were in a great mood. The joy they managed to derive from themselves and each other was something Lu Shu was envious of.

But now, all of them looked listless. Lu Shu lamented this sight, such as the reality of life…

Lu Xiaoyu ran over immediately when she saw Lu Shu, “What’s the situation?”

“It’s very possible that a remain has opened at Chaka salt lake. But I don’t dare to just go in like that, I’m worried a heavenly king might come over.” Lu Shu replied softly.

At this moment, there were a few kids around gathering and swinging about Lu Xiaoyu. Lu Shu was puzzled and asked, “Do you know them?”

“Ahah, I don’t know which car these dumb kids are from.” Lu Xiaoyu laughed coldly.

Oh, Lu Shu nodded. Lu Xiaoyu was pretty and it was common to see her attracting the attention of young boys. But Lu Xiaoyu herself was still a dumb kid.

At this moment, a little boy suddenly dashed over and reached for the hair on Lu Xiaoyu’s head. But before his hand could even get there, Lu Shu pressed onto his head and smiled sinisterly, “Get out of here in three seconds or I’ll turn you into soup.”

For some reason, Lu Shu had the aura of a pract.i.tioner since some time ago. So even if he was smiling, the kid easily burst into tears from his intimidation. The main reason was that his hand was pressing on the boy’s head. This sort of oppressed feeling was really too stressful…

Lu Shu was annoyed by this sort of behavior to get a girl’s attention. Honestly, this sort of kids was quite common. In school, they would poke the girl with a pencil or something of that sort…

Lu Xiaoyu looked at the kid who was scared away and said, “Lu Shu, you actually looked quite cool just now.”

“Haha really? That’s a must!” Lu Shu laughed amusedly and haughtily.

…

The incident arose too suddenly this time, causing the jam too last all the way until at night when some traffic police suddenly came over to guide the cars at the rear. But since there was such a huge jam, it really was a ma.s.sive task for the police.

But the situation wasn’t as smooth as they had expected. The people behind didn’t know what was going on in front and many of them harbored the hopes of the traffic improving after waiting for some time.

And many people drove here for a holiday. If they were really forced to take an alternate path, it wasn’t a matter of one to two hundred kilometers. They might possibly be forced to take an alternate route of a few hundred kilometers. They’d rather wait here slowly than to take such a long alternative route.

Then, they asked the traffic police what exactly was going on. But the police said they weren’t clear as well, they were just doing what their superiors told them to do.

And in the end, they continued to be stuck in the traffic jam.

In the past, Lu Shu only heard of accidents on highways causing jams of a few kilometers. He didn’t expect to experience such an incident here himself…

At this juncture, many people stuck on the road were deprived of food for a day. Most of the cars had some tidbits but they were obviously not enough.

Occasionally, everyone would encounter a situation. Upon opening a bag of tidbits, you might not feel like eating it anymore after a few bits. It might not be finished even after a few days.

This was because… you’re not hungry enough!

When someone was really hungry, tidbits became something very useless… it did nothing against hunger!

w.a.n.g Shuli and Yuan Laingtuo’s groups of people finished almost all of their tidbits in the afternoon. But when the traffic jam was still not solved at night, everyone started to become anxious.

Water, on the other hand, was not lacking. Under normal circ.u.mstances, tour buses will come with a few containers of water for the tourists.

And reality proved that the aunties were the most prepared when facing this sort of incident.

Yuan Liangtuo watched as an aunty retrieved a plastic bag from her bag and amazingly, there were more than 10 boiled eggs inside…

Another aunty took out some cakes, fruits, bread and even biscuits. It was as if they feared they might lack food along the way…

But although these aunties were extremely prepared in terms of rations, they didn’t have the slightest notion of sharing them. And although Yuan Liangtuo and his friends were daoyuan students, they couldn’t possibly rob these people of their eggs, could they? Could they still survive as pract.i.tioners if such news were to be spread?

By that time, people would gossip about Yuan Liangtuo and the first battle he got into since being a pract.i.tioner was battling an aunty for some eggs… he would be a laughing stock if people hear about this.

Honestly, it was a tall order for him to bow down and ask for some food, something which he wasn’t willing to put aside his pride for. After all, they weren’t hungry for too long.

The people on the bus couldn’t stay there any longer. Everyone sat along the gra.s.sy fields along Huanhu road to rest. Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu, together with w.a.n.g Shuli and her friends, were chatting together.

Instead of everyone chatting, it could be put in another way. w.a.n.g Shuli and her friends were talking while Lu Shu listened.

He just completed the procedure of merging his chi rivers into an ocean. The chi mountain wasn’t completely formed yet. More time was needed for him to get used to what was going on within his body.

w.a.n.g Shuli lied on the gra.s.s as if thinking about something. As the night arrived, w.a.n.g Shuli’s fair complexion glistened under the brightness of the moonlight.

The girl beside her sighed, “My boyfriend hasn’t contacted me for a week. What’s going on?”
