Corpse Recovery Diver-Chapter 834 - 149:

Tan Wenbin was momentarily stuck for words, but immediately changed his tune: "Then we should send you up there."

Yin Meng: "That would be too unfair."

Lin Shuyou wasn't doing divination, yet was evenly matched with the other two, but if Run Sheng joined in, the balance would be completely disrupted.

Run Sheng: "I'm not a student."

Tan Wenbin: "Chosen from Haihe University's affordable store, we could even give the shop a little advertisement."

Li Zhiyuan didn't join their conversation. He noticed that the golden lion made several special moves, and each time, there seemed to be a faint shadow appearing above the stage.

The shadow tried to integrate with the descent several times, yet ultimately failed to materialize.

This wasn't evil, but a kind of spirit, although faint, it carried a dignified aura.

"Oh!!!!"

"Ah!!!"

They were so caught up in the fight, trading blows continuously on the ropes, that the temporarily built Sky Tower started to tilt, on the verge of collapse.

If it really collapsed, the leaders sitting in the front row would be the first to bear the brunt.

At this moment, both sides finally regained their senses, retreated, and then with the lion heads "biting" onto a rope, followed by leg circling, they pulled together, forcibly stabilizing the collapsing Sky Tower.

The two lions quickly blinked and shook their heads, as if this was all part of the act.

The stage staff, nearly scared out of their wits, rushed forward to pull the curtain and deal with the situation.

The audience below erupted into thunderous applause once again.

The next program was delayed for a long time before it started.

But the audience was all still immersed in the excitement of the previous program, just enough to take a breather.

Backstage.

Lin Shuyou took off the lion costume, facing him were two people in black vests and black pants, all of them university students, naturally similar in age.

"Hahaha! Great moves, bro!"

"We went two against one and still couldn't knock you down!"

Seeing the two weren't here to cause more trouble and were cheerful, Lin Shuyou smiled and nodded at them.

"I'm Zhou Cheng, this is my brother Zhou Feng, we're from Cangzhou."

"I'm Lin Shuyou."

"Judging by your accent, you're from the south?"

"Yeah."

Brother Zhou Feng clicked his tongue: "I never thought Southern lions could be so tough."

Zhou Cheng was curious: "Your lions over there aren't supposed to be more delicate?"

Lin Shuyou waved his hand: "I just started learning lion dance."

Zhou Cheng: "Oh, no wonder, so you're purely a practitioner, not from our line of work."

"Yeah."

Zhou Feng: "That's why we were puzzled when we hinted at activating the lion spirit, and you didn't react."

"Activating the lion spirit?"

Zhou Cheng: "When man and lion become one, the false lion turns real, becoming braver and fiercer."

Zhou Feng: "Haha, good thing we didn't activate the lion spirit, otherwise it'd be somewhat unfair."

Lin Shuyou accompanied them with a chuckle, thinking about the stage; if the other side activated the lion spirit, he would've had to do divination, calling upon White Crane Child to dance the lion.

This was something he couldn't have imagined before, but he knew, since the child was warned by Brother Xiao Yuan last time, he might indeed be able to invite it now.

Anyway, winning wasn't necessary, but losing was absolutely not an option; he knew Brother Xiao Yuan was watching from below.

Zhou Cheng invited: "Come on, let's skip the party after this; find somewhere to have a drink?"

Lin Shuyou shook his head: "I have classmates waiting for me."

Zhou Cheng: "What's the matter, bring your classmates along, we're buying!"

"I'll have to ask first."

Lin Shuyou knew Brother Bin's seat number, walked from backstage to the audience, and made his inquiry.

Li Zhiyuan: "Let's have a meal together then."

Immediately, Li Zhiyuan looked at Tan Wenbin: "Invite the class monitor along."

Tan Wenbin whispered: "Isn't this a bit inconvenient?"

Li Zhiyuan: "Who decides?"

Tan Wenbin immediately replied: "That's incredibly convenient."

With only a few programs left, Li Zhiyuan and the others left early.

Tan Wenbin walked towards Zhou Yunyun's position while imitating Brother Xiao Yuan's earlier words: "Who decides? Who decides? Hahaha!"

Rarely, there was an element of childlike innocence seen on Brother Xiao Yuan.

Tan Wenbin went to fetch Zhou Yunyun, and along the way, gave Luo Mingzhu another warning look; she didn't dare follow.

Because she could sense that today, the man before her had no patience in his eyes.

Mostly it was previously that no matter how annoying this senior was, Tan Wenbin faced her alone, could endure, but today with Brother Xiao Yuan here, she wouldn't be able to spoil the atmosphere.

The Zhou brothers saw Lin Shuyou call over so many "classmates," both looked a little embarrassed.

The dining location, of course, remained that place.

A Hebei lion and a Fujian lion, after not butting heads, went down to a Sichuan restaurant.

Old Sichuan restaurant had just expanded, and did some new renovations, visibly upping its style and class; these costs were covered by Xue Liangliang, who was out of town, sent the money to Tan Wenbin to give to the owners, a couple.

Zhou Cheng and Zhou Feng stood at the store entrance, exchanged a glance, somewhat hesitant, initially thinking of finding a small place to have a drink, unexpectedly so many people showed up to dine.

The two whispered to each other, calculating the remaining living expenses for the month, should barely cover this meal.

Tan Wenbin squeezed between them, arms wrapped around their shoulders: "This is my family's store, it's an honor for you to visit, I'm treating!"

These days, an ordinary university student wouldn't have much money for dining out, especially for those with big appetites.

The dinner was very lively.

The Zhou brothers were quite forthright, shared detailed stories of their family's lion dance traditions and history, though they didn't bring up the lion spirit activation again.
