Chapter 280-1 It must have been very hard

Luo Shen's mind and eyes were full of delicious food, so she had no time to argue with him. Lu Yu went to the side and broke off a few branches, peeled off the bark, cleaned the branches, and sharpened both ends.

Then he took the marinated snake meat and put it on the top. He brought it to the side of the fire where the snake soup was stewing and began to roast it slowly using the fire on both sides.

After roasting for a while, the snake meat began to turn brown gradually. A sizzling sound was heard on the snake meat skewers. Under the double delicious attack, Luo Shen exaggeratedly placed his hand next to his chin, as if he was about to drool as soon as he opened his mouth.

She looked at Lu Yu and asked coquettishly, "How long will it take before we can eat it? This smells so good, I'm afraid I'll drool as soon as I talk!"

Lu Yu had never expected that Luo Shen, who always looked noble and cold, would actually mock him like this - Luo Shen seemed to have become more humane after living with him for some time.

Unlike the high and mighty Queen of the Luoshen Clan, Lu Yu said with a smile, "Don't worry, when the snake meat is ready, I will definitely give it to you first."

"There are so many. You will definitely be full... our little greedy cat."

Luo Shen was just asking, she naturally knew that the snake meat was not ready yet, so she sat nearby, looking at the beautiful scenery around her while waiting patiently.

Fortunately, after a while, the snake soup and snake meat skewers were all prepared. Lu Yu immediately handed the two skewers of snake meat to Luo Shen: "It's a little hot after it was grilled, so be careful when you eat it."

"If you really burn your tongue and get blisters, it's no joke."

Luo Shen nodded, pouted her red lips slightly, and blew gently towards the snake meat skewers. Then she opened her red lips gracefully and bit the burnt snake meat with her white little teeth.

The delicious taste in her mouth blossomed, giving Luo Shen a great sense of satisfaction. She squinted her eyes slightly in satisfaction, like a kitten. This scene made Lu Yu laugh.

It seems that this little girl has been treated badly over the years. Now she can't help herself when she sees delicious food. Fortunately, the snake is not small and is more than enough for two people. Lu Yu has already taken the snake meat soup down and let it cool down.

In order to avoid burning her mouth when eating in a hurry, Luo Shen swallowed the first skewer of snake meat. Only then did she have time to praise Lu Yu. She licked her lips and said.

"You know what, this snake skewer is really delicious. It's not only juicy, but also has no weird smell."

“And every bite is so tender that it feels like you don’t need teeth to eat it.”

Lu Yu smiled and said, "Of course, snakes are twisting all over, and all the flesh on their bodies is alive."

Luo Shen blinked her eyes and looked at Lu Yu with admiration: "Then if we encounter snakes in the forest in the future, you must remember to cook them for me."

Lu Yu rubbed her head with his hand in amusement: "Got it, my queen has spoken, I will definitely do what she says."

Seeing Lu Yu's funny expression, Luo Shen couldn't help but grin. The two of them chatted and laughed while eating up the snake meat skewers and snake meat soup.

Luo Shen had a very happy expression on her face while eating and even burped slightly. The two of them sat there and rested for a while.

Lu Yu dealt with all the garbage, and then the two of them stood up and walked towards the Holy Soul Village... When they arrived at the entrance of the Holy Soul Village, Lu Yu looked at the current situation of the Holy Soul Village, which was not much different from the early years.

Whether it was the roads or the layout of the houses, they were exactly the same as when he left. In fact, according to common sense, he had not been away from the Holy Soul Village for long, but his experience was different from that of ordinary people.

It was a hundred years later when he came back after their last separation. When Lu Yu saw the Holy Soul Village, his heart was filled with emotion - he tied the carriage at the gate of the village and walked towards the village with Luo Shen.

At this time, the villagers were still taking a lunch break and there were not many people on the road. Lu Yu was happy to have some peace and quiet, and walked towards the village chief's house according to the route he remembered... The village chief had already woken up from his sleep, or rather, he had not slept well at all.

The village chief sat in the main hall of his house to rest, thinking about the development of the Holy Soul Village... Although the Holy Soul Village is doing well now, as the head of the village, he also hopes that the Holy Soul Village can develop better.

After all, only when their village develops better can they cultivate more children. Although martial spirit is something that is innate, once a child has a good martial spirit, they can send him to the Soul Master Academy for study.

After all, the number of places for work-study students is limited. It would be impossible to send all of them to work-study. But although the life in their village is a little better than in other villages, it is only a little better.

Wanting to train more children to study martial arts is completely wishful thinking and unrealistic. Thinking of the fact that there are still a group of children who have no chance to learn to become a soul master, the villagers sighed deeply.

This is a sad thing for the village chief... After all, every child should get better and better, and should not live in this small village and waste their lives like them.

Even if they were ordinary martial spirits, as long as they studied, they would have the opportunity to grow upwards... Even if they returned to the Holy Spirit Village in the future, they would be able to live a better life...

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of Tang San and Lu Yu. He wondered how these two children were doing in their studies. Just as the village chief was thinking about these things, there was a knock on the door.

The village chief couldn't help but frown. Everyone was having lunch at this time. Who would come to see him? Could it be that something happened in someone's family? The village chief thought suspiciously and walked towards the door: "Who is it? Who is looking for me?"

He asked loudly as he walked towards the door, but when he reached the door and opened it, he saw a handsome young man standing in front of him. Looking at the young man in front of him, the village chief was stunned for a moment.

Because this boy gave him a very familiar feeling, but looking at this boy, the village chief felt that he didn't know this person at all, so he said politely: "I wonder what this young man wants to see me for?"

Looking at the village chief's increasingly gray hair, Lu Yu felt a sense of sadness in his heart for some reason. It reminded him of his grandfather. He didn't know how his grandfather was doing now after he left the world of Under One Person.

Is his hair grey too? The village chief looked at the young man in front of him in surprise. The moment he saw him, his eyes immediately turned red.

The village chief was puzzled. Did he know this young man? It seemed that he had never seen him before... But this young man's behavior did not seem like they had never met before. Could it be that he had seen him before and forgot about him?

The village chief was a little overwhelmed, and Lu Yu quickly calmed himself down. He looked at the village chief and said with a smile: "Grandpa Village Chief, have you forgotten me? I am Lu Yu."

The village chief looked at him, somewhat shocked: "Lu Yu? What, you are Lu Yu?"

The village chief's eyes widened in disbelief and shock. In his impression, wasn't Lu Yu a skinny and small boy? Although he was well taken care of and had help from others, he was an orphan after all, so naturally he didn't eat as well as other children.

Therefore, although they were the same age, he was thin and small, with hair as dry as grass, completely different from the handsome boy in front of him - the village chief could not help but rubbed his eyes hard with his hands.

Then he carefully looked at the boy in front of him again. This time, he looked him up and down carefully, and finally murmured, "Not bad, not bad, you are really Lu Yu."

"The eyes and eyebrows still reveal his childhood appearance..."

At this point, the village chief suddenly looked delighted and excited: "...Xiaoyu, it's you. You're back. Come in quickly and let the village chief take a good look at you."

"You've been out there for the past few years, and it seems like you've been doing pretty well... but it must have been pretty hard, right?"

"Don't make your life too hard. Eat when you need to eat, drink when you need to drink, and practice well. You will eventually be successful in the future."

Lu Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This is the person who loves and cares about you. He will worry about whether you have eaten well, whether you have drunk well, and whether you are having a hard time outside.

How could Lu Yu not be moved by such sincerity? Lu Yu quickly said, "Grandpa Village Chief, don't worry, I'm living well outside."

"Don't you see that I'm taller and bigger now? I must be completely different from before, right?"

The village chief said happily: "Yes, yes, it's good to grow strong, it's good to grow strong."

As he said this, he went to pull the person. Only then did he realize that there was a girl standing behind Lu Yu. Lu Yu held Luo Shen's hand and brought the person into the village chief's house, introducing them as they walked.

"Grandpa Village Chief, this is my friend. He passed by Holy Spirit Village with me. He knows that I miss you and the villagers."

"So I came here specially to see you. When the village chief heard this, he was even happier. He quickly said, "Okay, Lu Yu, you are so thoughtful. Come in and sit down."

After welcoming the people in, the village chief poured water for both of them, and then he had time to chat with Lu Yu: "I haven't seen you for just a few years, and I didn't expect that you, a little potato, have grown into a teenager."

"Looking at your current appearance, I guess your martial spirit training should be going smoothly. What level are you at now?"

The village chief's eyes revealed relief and curiosity. Lu Yu did not hesitate and immediately showed his two soul rings to the village chief.

Although the village chief himself could not cultivate martial souls, he did have some understanding of martial souls. Seeing that Lu Yu revealed two soul rings, one yellow and one purple, he became excited and spoke loudly.

"Lu Yu, you are actually already a great soul master? Isn't this too fast?"

Lu Yu pursed his lips lightly, revealing a hint of a smile. He said "hmm" faintly: "That's right, Grandpa Village Chief. Since I entered the academy, I have kept your words in mind and have been practicing hard."

"So I have lived up to your expectations. My training speed is pretty good, and I am about to hunt for the third soul ring!"

The village chief's eyes showed distress. He patted Lu Yu on the shoulder and said, "Silly child, I have lived for so many years, even if I can't practice."

"Do you really think you are the village chief and don't know anything? It's not that easy to cultivate your two spirit rings."

"To be able to cultivate to this level, you must have suffered a lot during this period, right? Silly child..."

"But this is not bad. Unlike others, you still have a family to rely on. Your future heights will depend on your own hard work!"

After a pause, the village chief asked again: "By the way, how is Xiao San's child now?"

"When you two are out there, you must take good care of each other. After all, you are both from the same village."

"Even if your bones are broken, they are still connected. Helping each other will be good for your future development."

Lu Yu smiled slightly. Tang San should have his first spirit ring now, but he probably hasn't obtained the second spirit ring yet. Moreover, the two of them had not been very friendly in their previous relationship in the academy.

After all, although he is as calm as a chrysanthemum, Tang San always wants to compare himself with him in everything... So Lu Yuzhi said vaguely: "Well, Tang San is also very hardworking in his training."

"But I was out on business this time and haven't been back for a few months. I don't know how he is doing now."

The village chief nodded and said, "You two are both good kids. You can endure hardships. Your future achievements will definitely be more than this."

"I am an old man, but I am just giving you some extra advice. Please don't find it annoying..."

Lu Yu curled the corners of his lips slightly and said, "Grandpa Village Chief, what are you talking about? How could I possibly bother you?"

"I know you are saying these heartfelt words out of concern for us. Don't worry, we will definitely work hard!"

After listening to Lu Yu's words, the village chief nodded with satisfaction - this child is a very successful person, and he must have said a lot of great things in college. He finally came back once, so as an old man, I should not say these things to the child!

Lu Yu just didn't want to talk to the village chief about Tang San anymore, so he changed the subject and asked, "You were resting just now, did I disturb you by coming?"

When the village chief heard this, he quickly waved his hands and said, "How could that be? I got up a long time ago and was just sitting there thinking about something."

Lu Yu raised his eyebrows curiously: "What's the matter? Could it be that the Holy Soul Village encountered some difficulties?"

It has to be said that Lu Yu knows the village chief very well. If it is his own family matter, the village chief usually doesn't take it too seriously. On the contrary, he is really a very good village chief.
