Corpse Recovery Diver-Chapter 528 - 97_3

So, this place is where any major events are held, like temple fairs, performances by groups, and the like.

"Brother Xiao Yuan, it’s over there."

Ahead, a space was being set up with temporary stalls, and the paper signs had already been erected.

"Brother Binbin, let’s go have some food."

"Sure, let’s eat first, and meanwhile..." Before Tan Wenbin could finish speaking, he heard an argument coming from the taxi behind them, "Hey, why hasn’t Ah You gotten out of the car yet?"

Li Zhiyuan, who had good hearing, replied, "He didn’t bring enough money when he left home."

Tong’an Town is located in the suburbs of Jinling. The taxi ride from the school to here is quite far, so naturally, the fare isn’t cheap.

Lin Shuyou only cared about being cautious earlier, bringing his makeup and costume, but he completely forgot to stuff more money in his pocket. He had not expected the taxi ride to be so long.

"Brother Xiao Yuan?"

"You go ahead."

Tan Wenbin approached the taxi, interrupting the driver’s angry voice, "How much is he short? Is this enough?"

"It’s enough, let me give you change."

"Don’t bother with the change, just cool down."

"Thank you, young man. Is he your friend?"

"Yeah, we came out together."

Hearing this, the driver turned to look at Lin Shuyou, and his tone softened a bit: "Why didn’t you just call your friend over to settle the fare earlier?"

Tan Wenbin said, "My friend is a bit shy."

After getting out of the car, Lin Shuyou had a look of both relief and embarrassment as he faced Tan Wenbin.

"Brother, thank you..."

"It’s nothing major."

Tan Wenbin was quite satisfied with Lin Shuyou’s expression. He hadn’t let the driver give change back not because he was trying to show off or be generous, but because he meant the tip to be for Lin Shuyou.

"Brother, are you guys..."

"We’re about to go eat; come with us."

"Together?" ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

"Why hide anything? My Brother Xiao Yuan has already seen you."

"He won’t ask me to leave, right?"

"Do you have money for the cab ride back?"

"No, I don’t..."

"The taxi fare is quite expensive, and it’s not cost-effective to go our separate ways. Wait and go back with us."

"Really, brother?"

"Let me correct you. It’s fine to call me ’brother’ in private, but in front of my Brother Xiao Yuan, just call me Binbin, and towards Brother Xiao Yuan, just follow my lead."

"Okay, Brother Binbin."

Tan Wenbin put his arm around Lin Shuyou’s shoulder, leading him towards Li Zhiyuan.

"Brother Xiao Yuan..." When they were still at some distance, Lin Shuyou raised his hand to wave first.

Li Zhiyuan glanced at him, didn’t respond, and turned to walk towards a noodle shop by the side of the road.

They sat down and ordered three bowls of noodles.

Tan Wenbin and Lin Shuyou also entered the shop and sat opposite Li Zhiyuan.

Feeling somewhat awkward, Lin Shuyou started, "Brother Xiao Yuan, exorcising demons and protecting the Tao is also my responsibility."

Li Zhiyuan took out three pairs of chopsticks from the holder, but finding them dirty, he handed them to Lin Shuyou: "Go wash them."

"Sure!" Lin Shuyou breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the chopsticks, and headed to the sink. When he came back, a smile was on his face.

Three bowls of noodles were served.

Li Zhiyuan said, "The evil spirit this time is pretty formidable. We need to work together if we’re going to survive and make it back to school."

"I understand." Lin Shuyou nodded vigorously, his eyes showing excitement, "We, the officials, are not afraid of evil spirits, no matter how formidable."

The "White Crane Child" that Lin Shuyou had previously summoned was supposedly a disciple of the Southern Extreme Immortal Elder, while the Growth and Reduction Two Generals were two Ghost Kings subdued by the Womb of the Earth Bodhisattva.

Theoretically, no matter how powerful Granny Yu was, in their presence, she would not be enough to make the cut, not even worthy to be on their table.

But the problem is, what matters is not how powerful the deities you summon are, but the individual doing the summoning.

Li Zhiyuan: "You have to learn to cherish your life to sustainably exorcise demons and protect the Tao."

Lin Shuyou: "Brother Xiao Yuan is right."

Tan Wenbin nudged Lin Shuyou’s arm and said to Li Zhiyuan: "Don’t worry, Brother Xiao Yuan, Ah You understands, both of us will follow your orders."

"Exactly, I’ll follow commands."

Li Zhiyuan: "Let’s eat."

After finishing their meal, the three returned to the West Suburban Square.

The performance tent was halfway set up and should be completed by evening. Meanwhile, in the outskirts of the performance tent, there was a row of small tents where separate individual acts had already begun.

Such as "Smash the Can", "Ring Toss", "Pop the Balloon", "Vase Girl", "Beautiful Girl Romancing a Python"...

These events were all brought by the circus and each tent charged an individual entrance fee, which wasn’t expensive, affordable even with a normal child’s pocket money.

Some local vendors also showed up at this time, setting up along the circus’ event tents, and it was already beginning to feel like a small temple fair.

"Let’s play along, blend in, and observe."

After speaking, Li Zhiyuan’s face showed the innocent and lively demeanor appropriate for a child of his age.

The three first came to the can-smashing stall, where a row of drink cans was stacked up, waiting to be knocked down by a basketball, and next to it was a poster with rules, detailing the various prizes corresponding to the number of cans hit.

Generally, the cans on the bottom were supposed to be filled with sand, or possibly cement.

Tan Wenbin spent some money to buy three attempts.

The first attempt was by Li Zhiyuan, who casually threw the basketball and only knocked down two cans.

When it was Tan Wenbin’s turn, he used a lot of force, but still a few cans on the bottom remained standing.

Finally, it was Lin Shuyou’s turn. His basketball throw was spinny, landing in front of the stack of cans and overturning all of them.

He won a large bunny doll, which he presented to Li Zhiyuan with pride as if offering a treasure.

Li Zhiyuan received the bunny doll with a face full of joy and held it tight.
