Task Progress: 99/100
After cleaning up her stall, Lu Wu glanced at the system backend. Regarding this number, Lu Wu felt that it was all a result of the system suppressing her.
But she would never succumb to the system's tyranny.
[...]
Why did I bend over at such a young age?
After a long day of exhaustion, Lu Wu was able to rest. She hugged the mother fox, stroking her fur, and listened to the elder talk about the Ghost Gate.
"A bronze door."
Lu Wu sighed, thinking of a certain young man surnamed Zhang.
"Snoring!"
The mother fox's fur was smoothed out, and Lu Wu's hands were very gentle. The mother fox completely opened her belly and turned into a puddle of fox cake in Lu Wu's arms.
Mimi: Love doesn't disappear, it just moves on.
As he spoke, Lu Wu's gaze couldn't help but fall on the elder's head. His eyes were particularly strange, and his hesitant expression made even the highly skilled elder feel a chill down his spine.
"Young friend Lu, what are you looking at?"
The elder's voice was weak.
"Elder, there's smoke coming out of your head."
Lu Wu told the truth that just now, wisps of black smoke were rising from the other party's head.
At first, it was just a little bit, and she thought she was seeing things, but as time went by, the black smoke became more and more obvious.
Now Lu Wu can't ignore it anymore.
"Elder, how come there is ghostly energy in your body?"
The disciples exclaimed in surprise, but they soon forgot about the elder because smoke began to rise from above their heads as well.
As the ghostly energy left their bodies, they felt much lighter.
Their eyes met, revealing a complex emotion that Lu Wu couldn't discern.
The elder standing to the side looked rather grim.
Their Divine Spear Sect is located outside the mountains, very close to the Ghost Gate. To avoid accidentally being affected, everyone in the sect takes pills to dispel ghost energy.
Logically speaking, their bodies should be very clean.
They hadn't been inside long enough for the ghostly energy to cause such a strange phenomenon.
There is only one possibility: that these ghostly energies have been lurking in their bodies all along.
Then there's a big problem.
They undergo physical examinations every year, so why wasn't any ghostly aura detected?
A mole!
This was the elder's first thought.
Whether the problem lies in the alchemy process or the person conducting the testing tampered with it, the elder cannot analyze it at the moment.
His mind was a complete mess.
Despite his utterly confused state of mind, the elder had no doubt whatsoever that Lu Wu had done something.
This is a foodie's trust in a top chef.
After a moment's thought, the elder rose and took his leave of Lu Wu. Now that Lu Wu had dealt with the rabbit clan, he needed to go back and report on the matter.
This is a matter of great importance, and we cannot afford to delay.
"We'll come back tomorrow."
The elder gave Lu Wu a meaningful look.
The gate to hell has not yet been found, the mission is not over, and I will definitely visit again tomorrow.
See you tomorrow.
Lu Wu waved goodbye, seemingly not even considering business tomorrow.
On their way back, the disciples of the Divine Spear Sect gathered on the treasure ship to discuss Lu Wu's matter.
They were still holding Yijietong in their hands, sharing their day's experiences with the others.
On Yijietong, I scrolled through a lot of messages.
They were also keeping an eye on interesting things happening in other states, and at one point, a post caught their eye.
Urgent! A reward of 10,000 spirit stones is offered for the location of Boss Lu.
Below this post, a bunch of diners, unable to find Lu Wu, completely let loose, crawling around in a dark and twisted manner.
"Boss Lu, my Boss Lu, hehehe, chew it, hehehe."
Any innocent passerby who enters will be subjected to psychological attacks.
"Senior sister, look at this post they're talking about, that Mr. Lu who sells lots of delicious food, could he be the one we met today?"
The junior sister and senior sister were getting close, and she asked them questions.
“But isn’t Boss Lu in Nanzhou? We’re in Xizhou.”
One of the disciples casually retorted.
What, does everything good belong to Nanzhou? Even Boss Lu has to snatch it?
But after they carefully read through the posts, they found that photos of Lu Wu were everywhere.
A comparison reveals a 100% similarity.
"It really is Boss Lu."
The junior sister covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise, looking at the high reward with envy.
She was a bit poor and wanted to earn some extra money.
The disciples present exchanged glances, discussed it, and decided to do it.
“I know where Boss Lu is.”
The junior sister quickly replied, feeling very happy at the thought of receiving a large sum of spirit stones.
But the reality was beyond expectations.
No one believed her response at all.
"Hey, isn't this Xizhou Xiaomanzi? Boss Lu is from our Nanzhou. We don't even know where she is now. What are you doing here?"
Xizhou was once a wild and undeveloped land, and it was only after it was cultivated that it became the Xizhou we know today.
Although they are all from the Qingyuan Realm, there is still competition between different states, and "Little Barbarian" is a derogatory term used by other states to refer to the Western State.
"Tsk tsk tsk, probably here to cause trouble. Ugh, I'm even cursing myself. Sure enough, without Boss Lu around, my brain has gone shriveled up from hunger."
"Heavenly spirits, earthly spirits, God, please refresh Boss Lu."
"Report: The bounty has now been raised to 15,000."
In the blink of an eye, the amount rose again. The junior sister, who had been mocked, puffed up her cheeks in anger, but when she saw the amount, she held back.
"Really, believe me, Boss Lu is deep in the Hundred Thousand Mountains."
The original idea of the Divine Spear Sect disciples was to stall for time and maybe even raise the price, but their junior sister was too eager to prove herself and revealed her true colors directly.
