Chapter 397: Lu Xiucai

Lu Xiucai and the others happily walked into a restaurant for their breakfast.

Lu Xiucai didnt care, even though it was too early in the dayhe ordered eight meat dishes. When the wine came, some of the smarter gangsters poured a glass of wine for Lu Xiucai.

Lu Xiucai drank it in one go and was greeted with cheers again.

The other customers cast contemptuous gazes upon them.

Sir Lu has a great alcohol tolerance! Sir Lu is amazing!

Haha. I cant drink as much as Sir Lu. Would you be so kind as to give me pointers?

Hmph! This is nothing! When I was still hunting demons in Qing Qiu with Master Li Huowang, I could drink an entire jar of wine this high in one go! Lu Xiucai replied.

Sir Lu, tell us more about how you hunted demons with your master in Qing Qiu!

Okay, let me tell you that even though Qing Qiu looks safe on the outside, it's actually an extremely dangerous place with surging undercurrents! If it hadn't been for Master helping me, I would have died there!

Lu Xiucai recounted everything that he had experienced in Qing Qiu while eating and drinking with the gangsters. Of course, most of the story had come from Puppy; Lu Xiucai recounted the story with him as the main character.

Amidst the cheers, Lu Xiucais face turned bright red from the wine.

He was already slurring, but he felt that he could still drink more.

They indeed drank more and drank everything. Afterward, Lu Xiucai waved at the gangsters and said, "Lets go to the brothel! Its on me!

Everyone cheered louder, and they were so loud that the roof was almost torn apart from the volume of their voice. The gangsters served Lu Xiucai, and some of them even almost recognized him as their foster father.

Lu Xiucai laughed with them, feeling an unprecedented sense of fulfillment.

It was already noon when Lu Xiucai walked out of the brothel, but he wasn't hungry at all. The brothel was famous for giving its customers donkey meat buns. Of course, even though Lu Xiucai wasn't hungry, he got a bit too busy, so he decided to go back to his accommodation and rest.

Lu Xiucai wasn't exactly the ideal tenant to the landlords, but Sir Kui had managed to find several landlords willing to accommodate Lu Xiucai.

Upon arriving at his accommodation, Lu Xiucai pushed the door open and saw a woman doing laundry next to the well. The woman seemed to be quite skillful at doing laundry.

Lu Xiucai entered Sir Kuis gambling den and took out the five bronze coins that Li Huowang had given to him. He played with it in his hands and revealed a greedy grin. With his techniques, there was no way he would starve again.

When he was ready to go to his usual post, Sir Kui stopped him.

Lu Xiucai turned and noticed the dragon tattoo on Sir Kuis shoulder and arm.

Sir Lu, dont worry about earning money for now. I have something to discuss with you.

The two walked into the small courtyard behind the gambling den.

A hotpot was prepared with mutton slices next to it.

Lu Xiucai sat down and immediately started eating. He hadn't eaten his fill at home, so he was quite hungry. Is something wrong? Please tell me if there's anything wrong. You accepted me that day, so you're now my benefactor!

Sir Kui chuckled and poured Lu Xiucai a cup of wine. Sir Lu, I heard that you were once a disciple of a Daoist? Is it true?

Of course! In fact, Master Li Huowang is an Immortal! He could even reattach his head! Evil beings are nothing but appetizers to him! Lu Xiucai exclaimed, slapping his chest proudly as if he were Li Huowang himself.

Since you are his disciple, you must be strong, too.

Hehehe. Lu Xiucai took a slice of mutton and placed it in the hotpot. Once it was done cooking, he took it out and munched on it with a grin. Somewhat. Im roughly fortyno, sixty percent as strong as him!

Good! Youngsters nowadays are truly amazing! Impressive!

Lu Xiucai smiled sheepishly. It was amazing to think that the infamous Sir Kui would treat him with so much respect. Sir Kui had stroked his ego so much that he was already thinking about bragging to his brothers tomorrow morning.

However, he failed to notice Sir Kui's slight frown.

Sir Lu, I have a difficult problem. I wonder if you can help me with it. I actually have a sworn brother, but for some reason, he ended up getting possessed. Im not sure whether it was because he was just unlucky or not, but he has gone crazy. Neither the monks nor the Daoists whom I managed to find for him could help him. If you can help me, I'll allow you to take eighty percent of my earnings here!
