Chapter 41: The Starry River Is White Tonight (1)
The steam from the steamer rose up.
Beside it was a long row of round iron basins.
The iron basin was filled with fried dough sticks, glutinous rice cakes, spring rolls, and other food.
From time to time, the sound of frying oil could be heard from behind.
At the entrance of the shop, there was an endless stream of customers walking through to buy breakfast.
However, except for a few people who were looking down at their phones or rushing to work.
Most of the customers looked at the table on the left.
From time to time, they would exclaim in surprise.
This was not just because the young man was handsome and muscular.
It was also because there were two baskets in front of him.
One pile was already finished, there were seven baskets.
There was a stack of six cages of her’s ‘loans’.
Everyone only saw him quickly finish a basket of soup dumplings with the speed of a whirlwind.
The next cage followed.
His appetite had been greatly increased.
The customers who didn’t plan to eat the dumplings bought one as well.
In a very short time, he finished the remaining six steamers of soup dumplings.
She even drank two large bowls of soy milk before she arrived.
Su Mo burped and rubbed his belly before leaving the bun shop in satisfaction.
Ever since he successfully advanced to Tier 2 that day, he had been able to reach Tier 2.
For the past three days, he had been eating without restraint.
Beef, pork, and mutton were all available.
He would even drink some wolfberry tea and ginseng soup.
All of this had greatly increased the expenses of the period.
Fortunately, she had saved up some money from working part-time as a model during her university days. It was enough for her to have a good time.
The reason why he ate so freely was mainly to replenish his lost blood essence.
[light of life] could help him increase his life force and heal his injuries quickly.
However, he could not conjure blood essence out of thin air.
What needed to be replenished still needed to be replenished.
Food nourishment should be the best method.
Thanks to the life of a big eater these few days, he had recovered quite well.
At least he wasn’t as weak as when he first came home.
After dealing with his own problems, Su Mo prepared to go to the Little Red Pavilion to take a look.
Although he was not forced to work, he did not receive any mission contact.
However, Su Mo still felt that he should go there more often.
He was exchanging combat experience with Captain Zhang and Old Master Zhou, who were experienced Trascendent.
Or perhaps he wanted to look at Chu Qingwu’s beautiful legs and Xue Qiaoqiao’s beautiful face.
Wasn’t this life better than playing games at home alone?
They boarded the familiar bus No. 28.
He sat in a row at the back.
While they were driving to the security bureau.
Su Mo opened his social media account.
He casually scrolled through a few chat groups to see what messages those night owls had sent last night.
He inadvertently saw a message prompt/notification.
He opened the prompt/notification and was shocked to find that it was a reply from guardian Xu.
They had thought that he hadn’t seen the news at all.
Or perhaps, he did not intend to reply.
He didn’t expect her to reply.
” Transcendence Forum, Sword Dao in detail.”
This reply was really concise.
It was very fitting of his aloof and indifferent appearance.
But no matter what, he was a high and mighty Tier 6 sword saint who was busy every day. He was already very grateful that he was willing to answer a question from a newbie.
Su Mo obediently replied,”
“Thank you, boss. I’ll go and take a look now.”
He immediately opened the supernatural forum.
He entered [Kendo Explanation] in the search bar.
Soon, a post popped up.
It actually cost 500 points to view the post.
Su Mo’s heart suddenly stopped.
It wasn’t that he didn’t have 500 points.
But it was already very expensive.
He only had 750 points in his account.
50 of points were from helping him kill the heart-digging demon.
After that, he obtained another 200 points from the villa mission in Boyue County.
As for the chaos at the Lesser Cang Mountain not long ago, the settlement had yet to be completed.
To be honest, the majority of his points were still the 500 points that Xue Qiaoqiao gave him.
Otherwise, even if he knew about the [Sword Dao Explanation] today, he could only watch helplessly and could not afford it.
“You want to take out two-thirds of your entire fortune at once? Are you buying or not?”
Su Mo only hesitated for a second before gritting his teeth and clicking the purchase button.
No matter what, the other party was a level 6 sword saint. There was no need to lie to a newbie like him.
If he bought it, even if he encountered any doubts, he could use it to continue asking guardian Xu questions.
Moreover, although he only had 750 points now, he had to rely on the contribution he made when he discovered the location of the crack in Lesser Cang Mountain.
He believed that he would definitely be able to obtain more points in the future. There was no need to deduct them at all.
As his thoughts spun, the invitation was already opened in front of him.
At first, Su Mo had doubted the value of this post.
However, when he saw the content, he was soon completely immersed in it.
This was because everything in the post was practical.
Control of sword moves, battle techniques, attention to details, and so on.
They were all things he had never seen before.
Su Mo looked on in a daze.
After an unknown amount of time.
The thread suddenly disappeared.
There was only one line left on the page:
“For the advanced content, please see [Sword Dao Details].”
A link followed.
Su Mo clicked on it.”
“Please pay 2000 points.”
“艹! What the f * ck is this?”
“Is there more?”
Su Mo searched again.
He found that there was a similar post behind [Kendo Details], called [Kendo Mastery], which cost 10000 points.
When Su Mo saw this, he felt numb.
He silently looked at the poster.
That familiar universe galaxy profile picture, that familiar account name [This Night Star River is White].
That’s right, guardian Xu himself.
“Am I taking the initiative to go up to him?”
Su Mo had a complicated look in his eyes.
He quickly dispelled this thought.
No matter what, the content in the post was indeed useful. It gave him many hints and inspirations. It was completely worth the price.
There were two more posts that followed. It could only be said that guardian Xu’s knife skills were accurate. Under that indifferent appearance, he was a shrewd business mind.
“In the end, big shots still have to earn points.”
Su Mo sighed and silently closed the post.
2000 points. Even if he did, he probably wouldn’t buy it for the time being.
This was because the content inside was likely to involve tier 4 and above.
He hadn’t even touched the edge of Tier 3 yet, so looking at those things was no different from biting off more than he could chew.
He just needed to take advantage of this time to digest the contents of the [Sword Dao Explanation].
Many of the techniques and knowledge mentioned in it were not something that could be grasped immediately.
Just as Su Mo was thinking about this, a prompt/notification suddenly came from the car’s broadcast:
“You have arrived at the terminal. Please take your belongings and get off from the back door.”
F * ck, I’m sitting over my head.
An hour later, Su Mo successfully got off at Weigang Station.
He walked up to the second floor and saw a group of people gathered in the hall.
Xue Qiaoqiao was playing a switch on her seat, her hands clenched tightly.
Chu Qingwu was holding a hand grip, and her fingers were exercising nimbly.
Captain Zhang and Old Master Zhou sat at the table and chatted.
Only Xu Liushuang stood by the window far away, flipping through a document with an ugly expression.
Seeing Su Mo arrive, Zhang Zhenyu, who was wearing a purple suit, laughed and teased,”
“What a rare guest. Our sword saint is actually free to come over.”
Just as he was about to go up and tease Su Mo, his expression suddenly became very shocked. He sized up Su Mo and said in surprise,”
“You’re at Tier 2?”
