Chapter 204: Celebration (Part 3) He went on to sell stinky tofu after his training. During the process of his training, the chis movement was successfully suppressed by Lu Shu twice. Although Li Xianyi didnt show it, he was silently surprised that Lu Shus control of his chi far surpassed his when he was at his age. Just as Lu Shu brought his crates of stinky tofu over, he saw uncle Li and a few other people discussing animatedly over something. When Lu Shu came over, they actually acknowledged Lu Shu with great enthusiasm, Little Shu is here! The atmosphere was warmer than usual, as if something good happened to everyone.

Lu Shu placed his crate down and replied, Uncle Li, what are you guys so happy about? Could it be that your son is getting married? Puh, hes still young, Uncle Li chided, Little Shu, youre really a student from daoyuan class?

Back when the two policemen received a notification to look for Lu Shu, Lu Shu had shown his daoyuan identity card, but they still wanted to verify his identity. Lu Shu was confused, Yeah.

We heard the news online. We actually dont surf the web, but our kids told us all this stuff Uncle Li hesitated before asking, Did you stay, or did you leave?

Lu Shu suddenly realized that everything regarding the heavenly network was widespread online. The pledge-taking by Luo Chengs daoyuan class was extremely loud last night. The echoes could be heard outside of the schools fences and on the roads and streets. Some cars even stopped and passers-by would look toward the school.

They started feeling emotional as they heard the pledge as well. Some people even recorded the lines in the pledge and uploaded it online. The noise from the ceremony was indeed too loud and the passers-by didnt even have to be near to hear it clearly.

It was a powerful pledge delivered by more than a thousand people.

This situation wasnt merely limited to Luo Cheng, but daoyuan classes all over the country were going through the same ceremony. Subsequently, the videos that made it online caused a huge uproar. Some people said that the pledge was but an empty promise and others condemned it. Lu Shu looked through all that before and felt rather flustered. He responded calmly to uncle Lis question, I chose to stay. Uncle Li displayed his blooming smile once more, Haha, look, I knew Little Shu would stay! He went back to his food cart and brought out a small plastic bag for Lu Shu, Uncle doesnt have much money and I still have to pay for my sons university fees. To congratulate your appointment as a military personnel, I bought 10 pairs of socks for you. Hopefully, theyre to your liking

Aunty Wang was joyous as well, I bought 10 pairs of insoles. Little Shu, I hope you appreciate them. Old Liu, who sold crepes beside them, showed a face of disgust, You guys have the cheek to give him that stuff? Here, Little Shu, I Old Liu have a wallet for you. Youre going to be a military official, you cant keep your money in your pockets forever, its really unsightly!

In no time, Lu Shus arms were filled with gifts. As he stared at these gifts, he suddenly raised his head and smiled at everyone, Thanks, everyone! I wont stand on ceremonies then!

He wasnt too sure why these people, who didnt have the slightest blood relation to him, were so jubilant at his appointment as a member of the heavenly network. It even seemed like they wanted to be part of the organization. After selling his tofu, he left his crate at his yard and headed out once more. He went to school and sat on the roof of the block for daoyuan class. He looked at his schoolmates entering school while having their breakfast in their hands, he also saw them running to the basketball court with a ball during break time, and eventually saw them leaving school in groups when school ended.

He looked over from the morning till sunset. No one noticed Lu Shu at the top of the building, neither did anyone know what he was thinking. Lu Shu seemed like he was distant from the rest of the world. He then followed the streetlights and slowly walked back home. He didnt enter his house when he reached his door and instead, he jumped up to the roof and sat there quietly. Lu Xiaoyu heard the movement and came up to Lu Shus side, Lu Shu, you have something on your mind. Yeah, Lu Shu acknowledged her and looked far ahead and the thousands of lit homes. The incident today had confused him. He knew he was selfish and cared about himself, and all he thought about every day was how to survive by himself but at that moment, he actually felt a yearning and desire to fight alongside those people if he had to.

Lu Shu said calmly, Xiaoyu, do you think wed have to fight for other people?

Yeah, Lu Xiaoyu nodded, If the old man meets any trouble, we should fight for him. If uncle Li or aunty Wang is threatened, we should help them fight as well.

Lu Shu waved his hand, I wasnt referring to these people. I was referring to people we dont know, people who we dont even know how they look, or what theyre called. They might not know us either, but when someone shouts to protect our home country, well have to dash to the frontline to fight for them. It feels weird But dont you already have the answer in your heart? Lu Xiaoyu analyzed calmly.

Lu Shu was taken aback, and he smiled at Lu Xiaoyu, Lu Xiaoyu, youre quite the thinker. Of course, Lu Xiaoyu said proudly. Lu Shu lowered his voice, I feel that those people are quite silly, the old man as well. No one knows who you are but youre volunteering to uphold world peace. So much effort was spent on fighting but no one actually knows that youre protecting the world but for some reason, I feel like I should fight alongside them. This is my train of thought, how about we do some things first before escaping? Even if its yeah, even if its just protecting uncle Li and the rest of them.

Lu Xiaoyu nodded her head, Ill do whatever you do. But Lu Shu, does that mean you want to be a hero? Lu Shu patted Lu Xiaoyus head and laughed, Are you nuts? We are still so weak, neither of us is a class C so how could we be heroes? Haha, this world does not need us as heroes. I dont like being a hero either, and I dont think I am qualified to be a hero Well just do what we need to do. Then, Ill bring you around the world for a tour. After the tour, we can come back home to watch television and relax, isnt that wonderful?
