Chapter 967: 967
“Why are you eavesdropping on us?” Mo Xiaoya was very angry . She had never seen someone as shameless as Lu Shu who thought that he was right although he was eavesdropping on others!

“Oh,” Lu Shu said after thinking, “I suspect that there’s a spy within you guys so I came to eavesdrop as an attempt to identify the spy . ”
Sun Zhongyang’s expression changed immediately . He said in a deep voice, “Do you know what you are saying? How dare you insult our over 20 years of friendship?”
“I am merely being suspicious,” smiled Lu Shu .
“Please leave . Our friendship doesn’t need your suspicion,” said Sun Zhongyang coldly .
“Fine, you guys can continue chatting . ” Lu Shu waved his hands and left with Lu Xiaoyu, with Xu Mujun following behind .
He did not bother arguing with Sun Zhongyang . The outcome was the most important . Whether Sun Zhongyang believed it or not was not important .
Sun Zhongyang and the rest felt speechless . Then, they suddenly realized that it should be the time to settle bills with Lu Shu . Before they settled the bills on him eavesdropping, how could he leave?
Mo Xiaoya became angrier . “Sun Zhongyang, why are you allowing him to leave?”
Sun Zhongyang thought about it for a long while before he realized he had taken a huge blame . “I… I am angry because he was being suspicious of our friendship…”

“From Sun Zhongyang’s distress, +666!”
“From Mo Xiaoya’s distress, +666!”
“From…”
Everyone was annoyed . They could not do anything with the young man called Le Yulu . It was alright if they were not injured but now that they were injured, they could not defeat him at all…
Now, Sun Zhongyang did not even know if Lu Shu was being truthful about the statement that there was a spy in the team .
This was a disturbing issue . Sun Zhongyang believed that something so terrible would not happen with their over 20 years of friendship . However… What if it happened?
This time, Lu Shu was actually being serious . In the past, before the slaves attacked, they would warn him first . After Sun Zhongyang and the rest were injured, assassins came immediately . They did not have a high status . Their intention was to kill Song Bo, the boss of the trade caravan .
Their opponent was very certain that Song Bo was only a Rank Two and his biggest wish was to buy a carriage . Therefore, they sent two Rank Twos with a carriage to lure him . Initially, they were rather confident of killing Song Bo but Lu Shu ruined their plan .
Lu Shu felt that there were many strange parts to this whole event . Therefore, it was better to be safe than sorry .

The trade caravan advanced in the wilderness . Sun Zhongyang and the rest were recuperating on the wooden carriage while Mo Xiaoya and the rest sat in the carriage with big holes .
The slaves of the trade caravan were all extremely exhausted . Song Bo’s slaves had experienced many battles . With Song Bo’s status, he would definitely get the best slaves to protect himself and his properties .
However, no matter how good the slaves were, they were unable to participate in the battle amongst the Rank One experts .
At this moment, Song Bo felt that the crucial thing was to be powerful .
Everyone in the trade caravan looked unkempt . The trade caravan had passed by several towns but Song Bo was afraid to create problems and therefore did not enter . He decided to head to the palace straightaway .
Therefore, by right, when the trade caravan passed by any towns or fortresses, Song Bo would send some of his slaves down to refill basic supplies like water . They would not enter the town .
The slaves in the trade caravan left hurriedly the day after Lu Shu said that there could be spies . Song Bo explained to them that there would be a town nearby the state highway and sent the slaves to buy some supplies .
Then, Song Bo realized that the atmosphere was strange . When he turned around, he saw Lu Shu, Lu Xiaoyu and Xu Mujun staring quietly at him…
Song Bo felt goosebumps forming . He asked Lu Shu, “Why are you staring at me?”

Lu Shu said calmly, “You are the person who comes into contact with the outside world the most often . You are merely sitting here . Yesterday, the other party did not take any actions, seemingly to be waiting for an opportunity . When the slaves return with the food, nobody shall touch them and you shall take the first bite?”
Song Bo felt unwell . He was always afraid that the food he bought would be poisoned and always asked his slaves to test it before he ate them . Now, he was told to test the food . Everyone knew that they were under special circumstances and poisoning of food was very probable . Therefore, if he was the one who was supposed to do the food testing, he would probably die suddenly…
Sun Zhongyang suddenly said coldly, “Stop being suspicious . We had destroyed so much food and other supplies . We also threw many of them away because the carriage and horses are destroyed . If we don’t buy food from the town, we would have died long ago . Moreover, Song Bo had done so much for the Sun family for decades, the Sun family trusts him . ”
Lu Shu glared at Sun Zhongyang . To be honest, he had nothing against Sun Zhongyang as Sun Zhongyang was extremely fair and straightforward .
Therefore, Lu Shu knew that there was a reason that made Sun Zhongyang the “leader” of the team . Everyone was willing to obey him and this made Sun Zhongyang charismatic .
Now, upon seeing how Lu Shu made things difficult for Song Bo, Sun Zhongyang could not stand it . He could clearly remember whatever Song Bo did for him along the way, how could he suspect someone at this point in time?
Lu Shu shrugged . “Then what shall we do if there’s poison?”
At this moment, Song Bo’s slaves had returned with buns wrapped in paper packaging . Song Bo thought about it, “How about this, nobody shall do the food testing . I will use the silver needle to test if the bun is poisoned . If it is, I will die as punishment . I only hope for the Sun family to treat my family well . ”
As he said that, he took out a silver needle and pressed it into the bun . When the silver needle was pulled out, it really turned black!
This time, Sun Zhongyang was speechless .
The slave who was holding the bun was also speechless . Lu Shu said, “Are you stupid? This is a f*cking red bean bun!”
Lu Shu was puzzled . “Who told you that the silver needle can test if food is poisonous?”
Song Bo was stunned for a moment . “The “Water Margin1 written by the old King of Gods . ”
Lu Shu suddenly felt that the old King of Gods was really free . He copied the long “Water Magin”?! However, he could not say much as the idea about using the silver needle to test for poison on Earth also came from the “Water Margin” . However, the spreading of this idea made one think that it was a hundred percent accurate special tool in Wuxia novels .
However, the principle behind this was targeting arsenic . Lu Shu did not believe that arsenic could have any effect on Rank One practitioners…
Lu Shu felt that the big build of Rank One experts would definitely not die from eating arsenic . At most, they would have diarrhea and recover by the next day .
