Lu Yu had informed the officers and soldiers in advance that they would not address each other as "commander" or perform military salutes today. There would be no distinction between superiors and subordinates; they would be treated as one family, celebrating the New Year together, and enjoying themselves as much as they wanted.
As soon as Bai Shuang and the others got out of the car, the soldiers around them surrounded them.
"Grandpa Lu is here!"
Two division commanders helped him out of the car, one on each side, and walked forward.
"You've come to the right place! Our party is about to begin."
"Yes, we've prepared many wonderful programs, sir..."
Before they could finish speaking, Grandpa Lu shook off their hands.
The two looked at him nervously, at a loss for what to do.
Although General Lu gave such instructions, everyone knew that he was the leader, and that authority didn't disappear just because he wasn't called "leader."
Bai Shuang and the others also looked at Old Lu, thinking to themselves, "What's wrong with this old man now?"
Even the snow leopard stared at him strangely, as if to say, "If you don't behave, I'm not taking you with me anymore."
To everyone's surprise, Old Lu said, "I'm not old yet, do I need to be supported like this?"
After saying that, he strode towards the military camp, his steps light as the wind, almost as fast as the young man.
The group realized what was happening and immediately gave chase.
Who is Old Master Lu? It's obvious that the children wanted to make him happy today, and they had already spoken to them beforehand.
But if he were to be helped in by two division commanders, would the others be able to have fun seeing such a scene?
Old Lu sat down, and the party began. He said to Lu Yu, "Call your Uncle Ling and tell him to come and join in the fun."
"Who exactly is Ling Liyuan to you? Why did you bring him along?"
Bai Shuang said indignantly.
Old Lu glared at her, then turned his head back to watch the gala. Some soldiers had already started singing.
Not long after, Ling Liyuan arrived, bringing with him Ling Qingyao and her brother.
Bai Shuang glanced sideways at Old Master Lu, "Look, trouble has arrived. If she causes any trouble today, I will definitely kill her!"
The snow leopard crouching beside Bai Shuang barked, "Old man, you're so meddlesome."
Then, Bai Shuang said to Bai Jiu behind her, "Go and keep an eye on them. If they have any ill intentions, you can act first and report later."
Grandpa Lu's face darkened when he saw that Bai Shuang didn't seem to be joking.
The girl usually acts lively and cute in front of him, but he knows that someone who can live so well on her own in Tang City must be a decisive and ruthless person.
It was because I felt that Brother Ling had a kind fatherly heart and wanted to reunite his daughter, so I wanted to do my best to bring them together.
I never expected that there would be such a deep conflict between the children on both sides.
Grandpa Lu just hopes that he won't cause any trouble.
Ling Liyuan and his men quickly approached, "Commander..."
Old Lu waved his hand, "There are no leaders here today."
He gestured for her to sit in the seat next to him.
"Hello, Grandpa Lu!"
"Hello, Grandpa Lu!"
Old Lu nodded, gesturing for them to sit down.
Ling Liyuan sat to the right of Elder Lu, while Ling Qingyao and her brother sat beside Ling Liyuan.
Lu Yu and Bai Shuang, who were sitting to the left of Old Master Lu, stood up, called out "Uncle Ling," and then sat down to watch the program in peace.
"Hello, Brother Lu."
The two greeted each other, and Lu Yu nodded before turning his gaze to the center of the field.
The arrival of Ling Qingyao and her sister was just a minor incident; aside from having Bai Jiu keep an eye on things just in case, it had no other impact.
Some people whistled very well, and some groups of people went up to dance, accompanied by singing.
When it came to the martial arts competition, the competition reached its climax. On a whim, Grandpa Lu decided to take off his coat and go on stage.
Bai Shuang held his arm down tightly, preventing him from taking it off.
"You brat, let go of me! Do you think your grandpa's made of clay?"
Woof woof woof...
The snow leopard helped Bai Shuang by leaping in front of Old Lu and blocking him.
Lu Yu: "Let him go. He got sick and injured; he brought it on himself."
Bai Shuang glared at him, "Don't come to me if you need anything."
"You brat, can't you wish me well for once?"
Old Lu threw off his coat and went on stage.
Thanks to the conditioning provided by the white frost and the restorative effects of the spiritual spring water, Elder Lu's health has improved significantly.
When the younger officers saw that their leader had arrived, they all stood still.
Old Lu was furious at their lack of courage. "What, are you chickening out? A dozen young people, are you afraid of an old man like me?"
Lu Yu gestured for them to practice freely with their grandfather, and the martial arts match between the old man Lu and a group of young people began.
At first, the eight young men didn't dare to go all out; they couldn't afford to hurt their commander.
But after one round, they were utterly defeated by the old man and dared not underestimate him anymore. However, even the eight of them combined seemed to be no match for him.
The audience was stunned, and then burst into enthusiastic applause.
Even Bai Shuang was surprised that Grandpa Lu was so good at kung fu! She turned to Lu Yu and asked, "You should be able to beat Grandpa, right?"
“Grandpa is very good at kung fu. If he were twenty years younger, I might not be able to beat him. But now, his physical strength is not as good as mine, and his strength has also declined.”
While Bai Shuang and the other person were talking, they had already finished their fight, and Grandpa Lu had won a great victory.
Grandpa Lu had never practiced in public before, and everyone present was amazed by his skill!
He was shouting on stage, asking who would dare to fight him again.
"He's getting old, one game is enough. Look at him, he's addicted to it, he wants to play more."
"Should I go up and teach him a lesson?"
Lu Yu nodded. Only Bai Shuang could go. If he went, he would only be scolded by his grandfather and wouldn't dare to fight back.
So, Bai Shuang and Lu Yu took off their coats, put on protective gear, and walked towards their grandfather.
The snow leopard immediately followed, going with its master, the old man.
"What are you doing? Are you ganging up on an old person?"
Hahaha……
The officers and soldiers around him had never heard Old Lu speak in this way before, which made them burst into laughter.
Bai Shuang wanted to laugh, "Why didn't you say earlier that those eight people ganged up on you?"
"They bullied me? I'm the one who bullied them."
Bai Shuang, Lu Yu, ...
The people around, ...
Isn't this blatant bullying of the weak and fear of the strong?
Bai Shuang deliberately said to him, "Weren't you challenging us? What, now that we're here, are you scared?"
Don't worry, we won't use numbers to bully the few; we'll take them one by one.
Grandpa Lu secretly glared at his grandson. What an unfilial brat! He doesn't know how to give way to his elders at all.
Seeing that her joke with the old man was almost over, Bai Shuang didn't want to waste any more time.
"How about I have a match with Grandpa, with Lu Yu as the referee?"
"Don't worry, I'll let Grandpa have his way."
"Who asked you to give way? But we have to make it clear beforehand, no underhanded tactics, just martial arts."
He might not be able to beat that brat, but he's not so bad as to be unable to beat that girl.
"Look at what you're saying, do you think I'm a shady person?"
Grandpa Lu wanted to say, "You are it," but seeing so many people around, his own family, he decided it was better not to say it.
To be honest, he really wanted to see how good the girl's martial arts were. He had heard the brat talk about it before, but he had never seen it.
The two men took their positions, with Lu Yu keeping a close eye on both sides.
Suddenly, Old Lu saw that the snow leopard was also preparing to pounce and shouted, "Let it go down."
