A young man in a suit was walking quickly while talking on the phone. He subconsciously dodged and his hands were empty. After walking for more than ten meters, he suddenly realized that the breakfast he had been carrying was gone.
“Fuck …” The young man looked back and saw a figure similar to him walking in a hurry. He could only curse his bad luck.
“Damn it, someone stole my breakfast!”
Lu Sheng picked up the pancake that he had just taken from the young man and took a bite.
The pancake was made of mixed grains. It was wrapped with eggs, lettuce, tenderloin sausages, and two layers of crispy meat. It was mixed with a special sauce. The texture and taste were great.
This was a specialty of the capital and one of Lu Sheng’s favorite breakfast foods. The cafeterias of the Seven Universities provided it every morning, but it was wrapped in exotic beast meat.
“I eat exotic beast meat every meal. It’s not bad to eat ordinary people’s food occasionally for a change …” Lu Sheng suddenly felt a little emotional.
As his strength continued to improve, he seemed to be more and more detached from the life of an ordinary person.
Just like that, he walked around aimlessly. When the rush hour was over, there were fewer pedestrians on the road. Lu Sheng deliberately turned into a remote alley. The pace of his contact became slower and slower.
Under the prosperity of the capital, there were also some old alleys that were rustic.
Old alleys, small courtyards. The roads were paved with bluestones. Moss and creepers grew where the walls were connected. The electric poles by the roadside were covered with all kinds of strange advertisements. There were aunties carrying vegetable baskets and old men walking their dogs and birds.
Lu Sheng stood by the roadside and watched two old men in singlets and shorts playing chess. His mind was still on the game at first, but after watching for a while and deducing all the possibilities of the game in his mind, he felt bored. He began to stare at the round pieces on the chessboard in a daze.
Lu Sheng seemed to have grasped something, but he couldn’t remember it.
The old man in the red singlet made a killing move and completely scattered the faint light in Lu Sheng’s mind.
Lu Sheng shook his head and walked away from the chessboard.
He took a few more steps forward and suddenly smelled a tempting fragrance. The pancake that he had taken before had already been digested in his stomach. Lu Sheng was a little hungry.
Following the smell, he saw a small shop with a signboard of a noodle shop. Lu Sheng stared at the signboard for a while before walking into the store and finding a place to sit down. He then ordered a bowl of Fried Paste Noodles from the owner.
“Do you want it spicy?”
The noodle shop was owned by a couple. The boss was a middle-aged man who looked simple and honest.
Lu Sheng pulled out a few tissues and wiped the greasy table. He saw two children around seven or eight years old sitting obediently on the stools and watching TV. The old TV was playing a cartoon about Superman fighting a monster.
“Sit back. You’re hurting your eyes.”
The woman who was cleaning up the table said a few words and then hurried into the kitchen with the bowls and chopsticks. Lu Sheng thought of his mother, Zheng Yufen, and wondered if he should find a time to go home.
After defeating the Seven Sage universities, his Sage Martial University career was nearing its end.
At this time, the boss brought the noodles that Lu Sheng ordered and a bowl of seaweed soup. Lu Sheng thanked him and looked at the big bowl of steaming Fried Paste Noodles in front of him. The idea that had been lost in his mind finally burst forth again.
“I see …” Lu Sheng smiled with some joy in his eyes.
“The Dao of the Absolute Martial Master Path is perfect, without flaw or flaw. Therefore …”
He picked up a big handful of noodles with his chopsticks and stuffed them into his mouth, setting the basic outline of the Master Path in his mind.
“My Master Path should be round.”
A round shape is the most perfect shape, perfectly matching the concept of the Absolute Master Path. Everything was difficult at the beginning.
After taking the first step, Lu Sheng felt that he was about to succeed. His mood improved a lot, and even his appetite improved. He finished the noodles in two mouthfuls and decided to order five more bowls.
After thinking for a while, he simply ordered all the noodles on the signboard.
“Young man, you practice martial arts, right?” The boss asked Lu Sheng when he took the order. He didn’t look surprised.
“My noodle shop may be small, but there are many customers who come here on weekdays. Many official martial artists, even Level 3 and Level often come here to eat. They eat ten or twenty bowls at a time … ” When he said this, the boss’s honest face revealed a bit of pride. “It’s really delicious!”
Lu Sheng smiled and nodded, not stingy with his praise.
“I’ll come here often in the future.”
“Remember to bring your girlfriend next time …”
The boss’s wife joked and praised Lu Sheng, “Young man, you are so handsome. There must be a lot of girls chasing after you in school …”
Lu Sheng smiled and didn’t say anything.
The shop owner and his wife worked swiftly and quickly.
Lu Sheng’s noodles were served one bowl after another, and each bowl had an extra golden poached egg.
“It’s for you.” The boss explained with a smile.
Lu Sheng’s mood became better and better. Looking at the round poached egg, he felt it was cute. For the first time, he found that a round shape could be so beautiful.
“Special Warfare Superman! Transform! Fury Form!”
At this time, the two children sitting on the stool and watching TV suddenly stood up and gestured at the TV screen.
Lu Sheng glanced at it.
The cartoon of Superman fighting monsters was now at the climax of the episode.
Superman in his combat suit twisted the button in the middle of his belt. His whole body flashed, and from his original ordinary appearance, his whole body was wrapped in flames.
The combat suit on his body also turned red.
“Demon Immortal Beast is finished. Special Warfare Superman in his fury form is the strongest!”
A child shouted. His voice was crisp and bright. He was more excited than if he got full marks on an exam.
The child next to him immediately retorted, “Who said so? Special Warfare Superman in his frost form is the strongest!”
The two children quarreled in front of the TV until the boss’s wife came over and yelled at them. Then they sat down obediently again.
Lu Sheng was stunned.
He stared at the cartoon on the TV. In his mind, he kept replaying the scene of Superman twisting his belt and transforming.
“Fury Form … Frost Form … Transformation Form …”
Lu Sheng’s mind was bursting with inspiration, jumping around in all directions.
He was anxiously looking for a breakthrough.
“Boss, four bowls of noodles with soy sauce!”
A couple, a young man and a young woman, came in.
The young man shouted at the boss and then asked his girlfriend to sit down.
“Don’t look down on this noodle shop. It tastes good. I’ve eaten here several times …”
The girl nodded. Seeing the young man take out a cigarette from his pocket, she couldn’t help but say in disgust.
