Chapter 299 Preparation for Separation

"If Shitou makes any decision within these three days, he can go to the village chief's house to find me."

"But if after three days, the stone still hasn't made a decision, then it will be as if this incident never happened."

"Shitou will stay in the Holy Soul Village and be an ordinary child in the village... Anyway, the Holy Soul Village is developing better and better now."

"Staying in Holy Soul Village will also allow you to live a life without worries about food and clothing, without having to work as hard as you would outside."

Because Lu Yu has decided to leave Holy Soul Village as soon as possible. He can't stay in one place for a long time. He still has his own way to go and his own affairs to investigate...

If Shitou really decided to activate his martial soul to practice and find out his true life experience, then when he left, he could take Shitou with him to a place far away from the Holy Soul Village and break the seal of Shitou's martial soul.

In the remaining few days, he would have to work hard to figure out what method would be the most appropriate to take Shi Tou away, in a way that would not arouse the villagers' suspicion or cause them to gossip about him every day - because Shi Tou's parents would still have to continue living in the Holy Soul Village in the future.

If the villagers overthink things, it will make their already difficult lives even more difficult... In addition, after taking the stone away, Lu Yu plans to send Luo Shen to the Junior Soul Master Academy to study first, and then take the stone to a more remote place to break the martial soul seal.

In this way, if he and Shitou were really discovered or encountered any danger, at least Luo Shen would be safe... However, Lu Yu needed to think about how to do it after returning home.

...Shitou's family also felt that Lu Yu's suggestion was very good. After all, this was not a trivial matter. They had to discuss it carefully as a family as to what decision to make regarding such a big matter.

Of course, no matter what decision Shi Tou makes in the end, they will respect him... This time, Lu Yu and the village chief stood up to say goodbye to Shi Tou's family, and no one stopped them.

When I walked into the yard, I saw some villagers who had just finished their meals, looking over here curiously. In this era, there were no mobile phones, televisions, or other forms of entertainment. On the contrary, after dinner, when they had nothing to do, everyone would sit outside their homes and chat and talk about other people's gossip.

For example, now - today is the martial spirit test. Everyone knows the situation of Shitou's family. Although their children's martial spirits are not that good, they still have martial spirits. I'm afraid that Shitou is like his parents and has none at all.

With such a topic and popularity, before the village chief and others came out, everyone had already lowered their voices to mock Shitou's family, because it was best if other families didn't live as well as they did. How could they miss such a good opportunity to step on others?

This is the human heart of this era... Especially the village chief and Lu Yu, who personally sent the stone back. You know, other children have never been treated like this. Some people were puzzled and speculated: "Could it be that the stone's martial spirit is very special, a good martial spirit?"

But his remarks were immediately denied by others.

"Stop talking nonsense, martial spirits are also hereditary."

"That's right. His parents don't even have a martial spirit. How can a stone have a martial spirit?"

"Hey, hey, hey, look, they're coming out... Look at the couple's faces, even though they're smiling on the surface."

"But upon closer inspection, there is no joy on his face at all. Instead... there is a hint of pain."

This seemed to confirm their thoughts: "I'm afraid this stone doesn't have a martial spirit either. The village chief was afraid that they couldn't handle it, so he came to their house in person."

"I think so too. Look at that couple. They seem like they are about to cry. Hey, hey...what do you mean by seem?"

"It's obvious that he had cried before... Yes, even Shitou's eyes are a little red. Oh, how could such a young child bear such a gap?"

"That's right, it's not that easy to possess a martial spirit. This kid is just daydreaming."

"Even our children, their martial spirits are mostly sickles and hoes. We haven't seen anything else for so many years."

As everyone was discussing, several people had already walked to the gate, and the others also knew what to do and shut their mouths. After all, it was okay for them to mock the couple occasionally, but now they didn't dare to do so in front of the village chief.

If anyone dares to openly mock Shitou's parents, the village chief will be the first to turn against them... After all, the village chief is an upright and fair person, and he will not tolerate anyone bullying his own villagers.

Especially now, under the leadership of the village chief, their village has begun to live a better and better life. With such a good life, who would have nothing better to do than to offend the village chief?

What if the village chief gets angry and doesn't let them do such good work? So when everyone saw the village chief and Lu Yu coming out, they all stood respectfully outside the gate of Shitou's house.

Old Jack came over, and they all hurriedly greeted him politely: "Village Chief, you are here, would you like to come to my house and sit for a while?"

"Village chief, you came to Shitou's house to discuss something. I guess you haven't eaten yet. Why don't you come to my house for a bite to eat?"

"Village chief, my family has made some delicious pancakes tonight. They are filled with vegetables and you can eat them all without making a fuss."

"Yes, Village Chief, my meal today is also good, with shredded pork. Why don't you come to my house and eat?"

Facing the enthusiasm of everyone, Old Jack did not show any joy on his face. He just nodded randomly and responded, "No need. I have finished my work and I have to go home now."

He did not reply to them one by one, because he was not in a very good mood. What happened today was beyond his understanding. He just wanted to go home quickly to sort out the thoughts in his head.

The people around, seeing the village chief coming out of Shitou's house with a worried look on their faces, had more guesses in their minds, especially those who guessed that Shitou had no martial spirit, they felt even happier.

Since their own children's martial spirits are not good, they naturally don't want other people's children to be better than their own. They even hope that other people's children are worse, so that their children's excellence can be highlighted.

Shi Tou's mother's eyes were red, and Little Shi Tou and Shi Tou's father also looked serious. Lu Yu could only sigh heavily in his heart.

Then, he stopped at the gate of the yard, turned his head and looked at Shitou's family and said, "Okay, don't send your family of three off, even though Shitou has no martial spirit like you."

"But the village chief has kept this in mind. When Shitou grows up, if he is a good boy, he will be fine."

"Maybe the village chief will find him a job in the Holy Soul Village, which will always make him suffer. You don't have to worry about it."

"After all, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. You don't have to worry too much about him. Instead, you will increase Shitou's pressure invisibly."

Lu Yu's words once again confirmed everyone's guess. It was just as they said just now. It turned out that Shi Tou was just like his parents. He was also a person without a martial spirit. Oh, this family was too pitiful.

After Lu Yu finished saying this, he pulled the village chief and walked towards home. Shi Tou's parents didn't want to waste time with the villagers at this time, so after seeing the village chief and others leave, they took Shi Tou and walked into the house.

But the surrounding villagers asked across the yard: "So, he really is like you two, and doesn't have a martial spirit?"

“Oh my, what a sin… This child is so pitiful. He doesn’t even have a martial spirit. He can only be an ordinary person from now on.”

"Tsk tsk tsk, just be an ordinary person. You don't have to worry about me. Didn't you hear me just now? I'm already on the same list as the village chief."

"When Shitou grows up, I want the village chief to arrange a job for him in the village. This is a very good plan."

"Don't say that. It will take more than ten years for this little thing to grow up. By then, I don't know how the village chief's health will be."

"It's uncertain whether they can live to that time... They are pinning all their hopes on the village chief. How foolish of them."

In addition, some villagers were a little proud and said loudly: "If they don't rely on the village chief, what else can they do?"

"Otherwise, wouldn't their lives be even more hopeless? So you have to be more understanding..."

"Look at what you said, as if without a martial spirit, Shitou's parents would be useless. Although it's almost the same..."

Shitou Niang couldn't help being angry. These people were deliberately poking people's lungs. It was really annoying. She turned around suddenly and shouted loudly outside the yard: "You bunch of gossipers, what's the matter? My Shitou just doesn't have a martial spirit!"

"How can the lack of a martial soul affect you? He eats your rice and drinks your water. If he doesn't have a martial soul, then he has no martial soul."

"His father and I are willing to support him. If you want to talk nonsense there, keep your mouth shut when you go back."

"Especially those boys in your family, don't let them bully my Shitou. If I find out, I will kill you to death."

Shi Tou's mother said this angrily, her eyes widened and even had a hint of bloodshot. Even though it was already dark, those slightly red eyes still looked somewhat eerie and scary.

For a moment, the villagers around the tiger did not dare to provoke her too much. After all, a child is a woman's life. Although everyone was unhappy about Shi Tou Niang's reaction, they did not say anything and returned to their own homes.

"Forget it. I have to get up early to go to work tomorrow. Let's go..."

"That's right, it's getting late, I'm going home to rest, everyone should go too..."

"Yes, I am really exhausted today. The number of people coming to our village to play is increasing day by day. I also need to conserve my energy..."

Watching the neighbors disperse, Shitou and his parents also walked into the house. After a while, the lights in their house went out. No one knew what they said in the darkness...

Time passed quickly, and today was the third day, and Shitou still hadn't come to see him. Lu Yu thought to himself that Shitou probably couldn't bear to leave his adoptive parents, so he gave up.

But it is normal to have such a result. What's more, he is only a six-year-old child. When he hears that he is going to leave his parents who have accompanied him since he was a child, he probably can't bear it for a while. It's also normal.

In fact, when it comes to the stone, no matter what choice they make, there is no right or wrong. Lu Yu was afraid that they would regret it, so he gave them three days. Now it seems that they have made their choice.

These days, Lu Yu has told Luo Shen to report to Notting Junior Soul Master College, where Luo Shen can learn a lot about martial souls, because he doesn't know what choice Shi Tou's family will make.

So Lu Yu made two preparations. On the one hand, he gave Luo Shen a general explanation of the male protagonist in this world plane, as well as the people around him. If Luo Shen wanted to go to the Soul Master Academy to study, he would inevitably meet them.

No matter whether Luo Shen wants to make friends with them and use the fortune of the male protagonist to quickly improve his own cultivation, or Luo Shen is ready to rely on himself to fight alone and create his own power to fight against the male protagonist.

Luo Shen knew their situation and information, so she knew how to deal with them when she met them. This is the principle of knowing yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles. Luo Shen also knew Lu Yu's arrangement for the stone, so she had no objection.

His current strength cannot provide much help to Lu Yu, so the best way for him now is to ensure his own safety first and not hold Lu Yu back, and on this basis, try his best to improve his soul power.

Until she could stand shoulder to shoulder with Lu Yu and fight with him, so when Lu Yu explained everything about Tang San to her in private, Luo Shen listened very carefully and made preparations to separate...

In addition, Lu Yu also explained the various soul master schools to Luo Shen one by one: "In addition, just like the soul master academy, they also have their own graduation requirements."

"For example, in the Junior Soul Master Academy, they will teach some basic knowledge of martial soul cultivation, such as the various martial souls on the Douluo Continent."

"There are also different soul beasts, as well as the glorious deeds of those prestigious Title Douluo... The school system here is six years."

"If you haven't achieved anything by the age of twelve, then unfortunately you can only be an ordinary soul master."

"Ordinary soul masters are better off than ordinary people. At least they don't have to look for jobs by themselves. There are many relatively ordinary positions waiting for them."

"The content taught in the intermediate college is much more than that in the junior college, and the difficulty and depth of the knowledge is also higher."
