Chapter 265 Let's join in the fun

"The meat is also tender and juicy. Take a bite and the rich aroma will instantly surge in your mouth. It's so delicious that you can swallow your tongue."

"The second dish is the one that everyone loves - crispy roast duck. The roast duck in our restaurant is made from the best quality ducks."

"After multiple treatments and a special roasting process, the duck is so delicious."

"Finally, I would like to introduce our signature grilled steak - this steak is available in every restaurant, but our steak is made from the finest beef."

"Through the perfect frying, the tenderness of the beef is preserved - slightly charred on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. Every bite is the ultimate enjoyment of the food."

So she said without hesitation: "Okay, give me one portion of all the three dishes you mentioned, and other than that..."

Luo Shen immediately picked up the menu and started reading it, then continued, "One order of this double pepper fried beef fillet... um, and this garlic chicken feet, make it faster..."

When the waiter heard this, he nodded and said, "Okay, sir, don't worry, we cook very quickly in our restaurant."

"Looking at you like this, you must be starving...Okay, don't worry, I'll tell the chef to hurry up and make sure he cooks it for you first!"

Lu Yu looked at the waiter with some surprise. He didn't expect that the waiter was good at doing business. Luo Shen smiled with satisfaction and nodded.

Then Luo Shen stared at the menu with a sharp gaze, thanked the waiter perfunctorily, and then quickly said: "... add another sweet and sour fish... and this spicy tripe shreds... sour and spicy ears... strange-flavored seasonal vegetables..."

Luo Shen ordered eight or nine dishes in one go. Even the waiter who had been serving with a smile looked at Luo Shen in shock, even though they opened a business just to make money.

But there were only two people, so ordering four dishes would be enough. Ordering so much... could they eat it? Out of good intentions, the waiter thought about it, but still asked uncertainly: "My two guests, are you sure you want to order so much?"

"The dishes in our restaurant are quite large. I see your figures... I'm afraid it would be a bit of a waste to have so many dishes..."

Luo Shen could hear the waiter's good intentions, but she quickly waved her hand and said, "It's okay, waiter. Just serve it to us. If you can't finish it, it's ours."

"And don't worry, we will definitely eat them all! This is not difficult at all for me."

The waiter looked at Luo Shen in disbelief, but Luo Shen kept urging him: "Okay, hurry up and serve the dishes... Why are you so slow, waiter?"

"Don't look at me, go serve the food... I'm so hungry now that I can eat a cow."

The waiter turned around and looked at Lu Yu again, only to see that the man opposite was smiling the whole time, watching the woman opposite order food, but he did not stop her at all. The waiter felt that he might be meddling in other people's business.

Oh, didn't you see that the man didn't say anything, what kind of intention is he to copy? Hey, let's go, since he wants the other party to take the initiative, he is open for business, there is no reason not to order food.

Thinking of this, the waiter stopped talking nonsense and turned back into the smiling, calm person he was before: "Sir, don't worry, I will serve you the dishes now."

"I'll make sure you can enjoy this hot, delicious meal in no time."

After saying that, he took back the menu and walked quickly towards the kitchen. The two of them were in a good mood at this time and began to listen to the conversations of the people around them: "...This is really a blessing!"

"...Yes, luckily I resisted the temptation and didn't get involved, otherwise I don't know what would have happened to me!"

When Lu Yu heard the voice, he turned his head and looked behind him, only to see a slightly fat soul master chatting with a few people at his table.

The people nearby couldn't help but nod their heads in relief: "Who said it wasn't true? You were the only one among us who was chosen."

"But because of your loyalty, you didn't abandon us... Look at us now, isn't this a blessing?"

"God has seen that you didn't abandon us, and this is a blessing for you!"

"That's right, that's why they say - a blessing in disguise. Who knows which bad things may turn out to be good things?"

"Behind all those good things, there is misfortune hidden... So recognize your own position and don't take advantage of things you shouldn't..."

Lu Yu and Luo Shen looked at each other. They didn't expect that there were a few understanding people here... They didn't say anything either, but just continued to listen to them quietly.

Because this matter was no longer a secret, everyone did not deliberately lower their voices when discussing it, so Lu Yu and Luo Shen heard their conversation clearly.

"...Niu Laoer, do you think those people are dead now? We all saw what happened there last night..."

"That's not an ordinary thunder... It looks extremely unusual, and I don't know why there is such a strange phenomenon."

"But no matter what, looking at the situation at that time, I knew that something was wrong... I'm afraid that the people around at that time didn't end up well."

Several people around could not help but nod their heads, saying with lingering fear: "Yes, that light illuminated half of the sky, and the power of the lightning was very huge. Did you see the width of the lightning?"

"Oh my god, I feel like there will be no survivors after the thunder and lightning... I wonder if the 100,000-year-old soul beast mentioned in the legend has been caught by anyone?"

Niu Lao Er swallowed all the wine in the cup, blinked his lips, and said to the people around him: "If you ask me, I think he was not caught... If he could be caught with such a powerful lightning, how powerful must his soul be?"

"But there's a chance that if the Spirit Hall had been there and taken action, this might have been accomplished."

At this point, he looked around and lowered his voice: "...After all, I heard that the people from the Spirit Hall this time are not ordinary, and there are quite a few of them."

The people sitting around couldn't help but nod their heads when they heard his words. The two men at the table next to them couldn't help but lean over. A man dressed in blue whispered, "Brother Niu is right. We have also heard that... the force deployed by Spirit Hall this time is not weak."

No one expected that the Spirit Hall's strength would be so huge: "...If it's as Brother Niu said."

"If all the people from the Spirit Hall were there at the time, then it's hard to say what happened afterwards."

The person sitting next to Niu Lao Er was named Zhao Qian. He asked curiously, "So, if the people from the Spirit Hall really caught that soul beast, they definitely couldn't kill it on the spot, right?"

"If we really kill him on the spot... I'm afraid his 100,000-year spirit ring will be wasted!"

"Although I can bring back the soul bones and give them to those in need, what about the soul rings? It would be such a waste if we don't use them!"

At Niu Laoer's table, there was another soul master, Sun Wei, who touched his chin with one hand and couldn't help but curled his lips and said, "What else can we do?"

"We have to bring it back alive. But what secret method did they use to restrain this 100,000-year-old soul beast to prevent it from escaping and causing trouble?"

"If it passes through our Soto City, will we have the opportunity to see what this 100,000-year-old soul beast looks like?"

When the people around heard what he said, they all agreed with it. This was a hundred thousand year old soul beast, rarely seen at other times. It was not easy for one to appear in the Sunset Forest. Although they might not have the chance to get this soul beast, everyone wanted to see it. After all, it was good to watch the fun.

Lu Yu listened to them chattering for a long time. He knew all the situations they described, and he couldn't help feeling a little impatient.

But he still had a gentle and smiling face. He turned around and joined their discussion and asked, "Oh, after hearing what you guys said, I just realized that the strange lightning last night was actually the birth of a 100,000-year-old soul beast!"

"When the people around heard Lu Yu's words, they all looked as if they had seen a ghost. Niu Lao Er couldn't help but said in surprise: "Little brother, you don't even know about this!"

Lu Yu thought for a moment and said to them, "I am really dissatisfied, brothers, the two of us are originally from other places."

"I passed by the Sunset Forest two days ago and indeed found that there were many more people there, but I don't know why there were so many more people..."

"I thought it was someone from some spirit master academy who wanted to undergo training and look for spirit rings or something... I didn't think too much about it."

"Now that I've heard what you guys have to say, it finally makes sense... So this kind of rare soul beast is going to appear inside."

"If we had known this, we wouldn't have come out so early and would have stayed inside to join in the fun."

The reason why Lu Yu said this was to clear himself and Luoshen of suspicion. After all, he now possessed Kuiniu's healing power and his heavenly thunder.

Lu Yu is not sure now whether the group of masters in the forest have noticed that something is wrong with Kui Niu. If they have discovered it, he will be in danger again.

So it would be better to use this group of people in front of him to whitewash himself and Luoshen... And Niu Laoer over there couldn't help but say: "Hey, you two are lucky, fortunately you didn't get involved."

"This is what we are talking about now. You should have seen the strange thunder last night."

In fact, Luo Shen didn’t see it, but she knew that not speaking at this time was the wisest decision.

Because of the sensitivity of soul masters, they will be able to feel the slightest disturbance outside.

How can I explain to everyone that I didn't hear any thunder last night? This in itself is very suspicious, so it's better for me to keep silent.

Lu Yu on the other side couldn't help but nodded and said, "You are right. Last night, when the two of us walked outside Soto City."

"I discovered that thunder had begun to appear over there. I thought it was strange at the time and thought it was related to the climate in Sotocheng..."

"Who would have thought that it was caused by a soul beast? This means that this 100,000-year-old soul beast is truly extraordinary."

"Looking at the lightning, could it be that he is a soul beast with lightning attributes?"

You have to know that in this world... no, I should say in any world, gossip is present regardless of gender, age or status. So when it comes to this, facing two people with confused eyes who seem extremely ignorant, the people around them all feel the urge to learn more about science.

Even the waiter who was originally in charge of serving the dishes couldn't help but walk over to them. He clasped his hands together and said, without waiting for Niu Laoer to speak, "Hey, let me talk about this to the soul masters."

"After all, I live in Soto City, and I know everything about this place very well..."

Niu Laoer did not argue with the waiter. Although he could not explain it himself, the waiter was right - he made a living in Soto City, and the waiter must be the one who knew the most about what had happened in Soto City in recent times.

Although they had heard rumors, they did not know much about the specific situation of this hundred thousand year old soul beast... They also knew very little about what was going on.

So it would be better to let the waiter do it... Seeing that none of the guests around him objected, the waiter began to explain to them... As a waiter, he had the best eloquence.

So he started talking to Lu Yu: "...The thing is, half a month ago, I don't know where the rumor started to spread."

"It is said that in the Sunset Forest, there is a 100,000-year-old soul beast. It is about to reach its age limit and transform into a human form."

"If we can catch him when he transforms into human form for the first time and is at his weakest."

"Then wouldn't it be easy to obtain the 100,000-year spirit ring and the spirit bone in his body?"

"After all, this 100,000-year-old soul beast is bound to reveal soul bones. This is a great opportunity!"

Hearing this, Lu Yu nodded slightly: "You are right, and then? What happened later?"

In fact, how could Lu Yu not know these things? He had heard of them all, but at this moment he could not easily admit that he had heard of them... The waiter continued to explain.

“…Although there have been hundred thousand year old soul beasts that transformed into human form before, it is not easy to deal with them once they are discovered.”

"Also, we heard..." Having said this, the waiter deliberately lowered his voice as if he was afraid that other people would hear him, making his next words even more mysterious.
