Jiang Lu couldn't help but smile as he listened to her words that seemed a little childish but seemed to be deliberately trying to create a sense of martial arts. "It's been almost a day since we parted in Nanjiang City, right?"
"Uh..." A trace of embarrassment flashed across Lu Qing's face. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that they had just separated not long ago. It did sound strange to say this.
"Just a joke." Jiang Lu stopped teasing her and asked, "How is your junior sister?"
Lu Qing replied: "She woke up not long after I took her away, but I think she might have been hit on the head by something when she fell. She kept saying that it felt like she was hit hard by a hard object."
"Oh, I see." Jiang Lu subconsciously reached out and touched his crotch, and nodded: "Well, I'm glad you're okay."
"It seems that you have listened to my words. Nanjiang City is about to fall into chaos. Now is the time to leave for a while." Lu Qing thought of the catastrophe, sighed first, and then asked: "Speaking of which, where are you going?"
"Kunlun Mountain." Jiang Lu replied.
Anyway, the live broadcast has started, and there is the law enforcement agency as a cover, so there is nothing to hide.
However, Lu Qing was a little surprised when he heard this answer: "How did you think of going there?"
"I heard that it is a holy place for cultivation, so I went there to study." Jiang Lu said casually.
Lu Qing frowned and said, "Kunlun Mountain is a holy place, but because it is a holy place, if you want to practice cultivation instead of sightseeing, the requirements are higher, and it is impossible for ordinary people.
It's not a shelter where anyone can go."
"The word 'asylum' sounds a bit harsh, doesn't it?"
After Lu Qing realized that something was wrong, he quickly explained: "That's not what I meant. What I meant was..."
"It's okay." Jiang Lu smiled and said, "I know what you mean. The threshold is very high. It's not that you can practice there unconditionally as long as you reach it."
"Correct."
"That's not a problem, you see."
Jiang Lu took off his coat again, revealing his school uniform to Lu Qing:
"I have a ticket issued by the Law Enforcement Bureau. I am a legitimate international student studying at public expense, understand?"
"Eh?" Lu Qing suddenly remembered that when he first met Jiang Lu, he seemed to say that he was from the Law Enforcement Bureau and had arrested the boss behind the underground casino.
So the gambling ban on the clothes should be referring to this, right?
"It means that you have made contributions to the Law Enforcement Bureau and can go to Kunlun Mountain to study in the name of the Law Enforcement Bureau, instead of going there in your own name, right?"
"Yes." Jiang Lu nodded, and then asked curiously: "But from what you said, it seems that you know a lot about Kunlun Mountain?"
"Since you are an outstanding representative of the Law Enforcement Bureau, I will not hide anything from you."
Lu Qing finally revealed his identity to Jiang Lu:
"I am the chief disciple of this generation in Kunlun Mountain, ranked first. I came down the mountain this time with a mission, and now I am preparing to go back."
As she spoke, she took out a black token with the word "Kunlun" engraved on it: "Look, this is my talisman."
Jiang Lu was startled and blurted out: "I'm the best! Student Union President!"
"What?" Lu Qing was confused.
"Nothing." Jiang Lu waved his hand and changed the subject: "But your chief always takes the train when he goes out?"
When talking about this, Lu Qing's face was a little embarrassed, and he said embarrassedly: "I didn't expect the prices outside to be so high. I don't have enough money with me. I can only take the train back home."
"Haha, hard seats are uncomfortable to sit on, right?" Jiang Lu thought that everyone was in the same boat, and said happily, "I'm almost falling apart sitting here."
"No, we took a soft sleeper..."
“?” Jiang Lu felt like a clown.
Lu Qing pointed to the rear carriage and said, "You came from the front, right? The rear carriages are sleeper berths."
"..."
Seeing Jiang Lu suddenly fall silent, Lu Qing said politely with some embarrassment: "Didn't you say that the hard seat was about to fall apart? If you don't mind, would you like to come over and sit for a while?"
Hearing this, Jiang Lu suddenly changed his expression to one of reluctance and acceptance: "This... This is not good, right?"
"Nothing wrong with it...right?" Perhaps he himself felt something was wrong, so Lu Qing immediately explained: "Didn't you say you are an outstanding representative of the Law Enforcement Bureau? That's perfect, if you have any questions about Kunlun Mountain, you can ask me."
"Now that you say so."
Jiang Lu was embarrassed:
"Well... excuse me for disturbing you..."
Chapter 327 Perfect Combination
Following Lu Qing, Jiang Lu came to the soft sleeper car.
Perhaps they didn't want to be disturbed, or perhaps they were not used to living with others. There were four beds in the compartment where Lu Qing and her junior sister were, but there were only two of them. According to Lu Qing, she also bought the tickets for the other two unoccupied beds.
The soft sleeper carriage is indeed more comfortable than the hard seat carriage.
Not only do you no longer have to endure noisy environments and unpleasant odors, the door of each compartment can also be closed, providing excellent privacy. There are also independent, self-adjustable air conditioners in the compartments, making it very comfortable to stay inside.
The younger sister who was lying on the bed reading a book was so surprised when she saw her senior sister bringing someone back that she sat up suddenly from the bed. When she was about to ask, she found that the person seemed somewhat familiar.
"You're not the one..."
She pointed at Jiang Lu with a surprised look on her face.
"It seems you still remember me." Jiang Lu patted his chest and said, "Yes, I am the embodiment of justice, the elite of the law enforcement agency, and a noble special agent!"
"Eh..." The junior sister stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Lu Qing invited Jiang Lu to sit opposite her and said to her junior sister, "She is the one who saved you during the earthquake and is also going to Kunlun Mountain now."
"Oh." The junior sister nodded and said nothing more.
Seeing her dull look, Lu Qing was furious: "Shouldn't you thank me at this time?"
"Ah?" The junior sister finally reacted and said to Jiang Lu: "Oh, thank you for saving me."
Jiang Lu stroked his chin, turned his head and asked Lu Qing: "Did she break her brain? Why does she look so silly?"
Before the embarrassed Lu Qing could speak, the younger sister's face changed and she shouted angrily: "You are the one who broke your brain!"
"No, I just saw that you seemed to be slow to react, so I was curious. I definitely didn't mean to offend you." Jiang Lu explained with a smile.
The junior sister wanted to say something, but was stopped by Lu Qing: "Okay! The dazed look you just showed, anyone who saw you would think you were a little fool, right? After all, I am your benefactor, please don't bring shame to me and my sect."
"I..." Junior Sister pouted and muttered in a low voice, somewhat unconvinced: "I was just wondering where my instant noodles went, I wasn't daydreaming..."
"Uh..." Lu Qing slapped his forehead and then he remembered that he had just come back from chatting with Jiang Lu and forgot that he went to get some hot water to make instant noodles.
So she immediately stood up, said "wait a moment", pushed open the door, and walked quickly outside.
Only Jiang Lu and Lu Qing's junior sister were left in the compartment.
The latter saw her senior sister leave. She, who had hardly interacted with strangers since leaving Kunlun Mountain, suddenly became nervous. She had to pick up the book she had just put down to cover her face, pretending to read, but actually secretly observing Jiang Lu out of the corner of her eye.
However, Jiang Lu did not feel embarrassed. He just picked up some melon seeds from the small table and started to crack them. While cracking them, he made small talk: "Come to think of it, has your senior sister ever told you what my name is?"
"No." The junior sister stared at the words in the book, trying her best to look at ease.
"Oh, my name is Jiang Lu, what's yours?"
The junior sister hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Zhu Zhen."
"What a cute name." Jiang Lu looked at the other person with a smile: "Zhu Zhen, you hold the book upside down."
"Eh?" Zhu Zhen was stunned, then forced himself to remain calm and said nonchalantly, "The seal on the cover is reversed."
"So the inside is right? Let me take a look." Jiang Lu leaned his head over to Zhu Zhen's head, glanced at the contents of the book, and said in surprise, "Obviously, the inside is also upside down."
Zhu Zhen, who had never had any intimate contact with a man, had never experienced this before. In just a moment, goose bumps appeared all over her body. She clenched her toes covered by the quilt, and her face quickly turned red. She was so embarrassed that she almost buried her head in the book.
"What are you doing?"
"I want to see if you are lying." Jiang Lu sat back with a smile, cracking melon seeds while admiring Zhu Zhen's pretty appearance.
At this moment, Lu Qing also came back with the instant noodles: "It's time to eat."
But as soon as she entered the compartment, she found that her junior sister seemed to be a little abnormal.
Why does it look like a cooked crab?
"What's going on?" she asked curiously.
"Nothing." Zhu Zhen shook his head, but continued to stare at the reversed words on the book, not daring to look up at all.
But Lu Qing's return did ease the tension in her heart a lot, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing this, Lu Qing had no choice but to attribute her abnormality to the fact that her brain was indeed damaged, and did not think much about it.
After putting down the instant noodles, she remembered that Jiang Lu was there too, and it seemed inappropriate to eat in front of him.
"Would you like to have some too?" she asked.
"No, I just ate." Jiang Lu waved his hand and politely declined Lu Qing.
The latter nodded, then sat down with confidence and invited Zhu Zhen to eat.
When people are eating, they are often least alert, which invisibly brought the two sisters closer to Jiang Lu, and they seemed to become more familiar with each other.
As if they were old friends reuniting and greeting each other, Jiang Lu casually asked, "How old is your junior sister?"
Lu Qing raised his chin towards Zhu Zhen and said, "You tell me yourself."
The latter was rolling noodles with a fork. When he was suddenly cueed, he stirred the bowl in a panic: "I just turned eighteen."
"You're so young and yet you're going down the mountain with me to carry out missions. You have a promising future." Jiang Lu praised.
Hearing this, Lu Qing thought of all the troubles Zhu Zhen had caused her along the way, and complained with a headache and helplessness: "She insisted on coming with me, it's good enough that she didn't make things worse, what future can we expect?"
Hearing this, Zhu Zhen slapped the table in anger.
"Senior Sister! There are outsiders here!"
"What? You still feel ashamed?" Lu Qing joked with a smile.
Zhu Zhen glared at Lu Qing fiercely, then glanced at Jiang Lu to see his reaction.
Seeing that Jiang Lu didn't have any opinion of him because of Lu Qing's words, he felt relieved.
After chatting for a while, Jiang Lu finally got to the point: "By the way, I want to ask, how can I meet the Queen Mother of the West?"
"What do you want to do to see the master?" Lu Qing asked curiously.
