Chapter 335: 335

Thus, the two picked up stuff along the way . Lu Shu carried two plastic bags of bottles while Chen Zuan lifted a sack of stones .

Both the plastic bags and the sack were taken from the roadside . There were faint prints of XX fertilizer on the sack . Who the hell knew where it was from .

“Where are we going?” Chen Zuan asked out of curiosity . It was not a tiring job per se, but neither did he feel comfortable under the pedestrians’ unwanted stares .

Truth be told, from a young age Chen Zuan had never had to suffer much hardship . Although he was not a spoiled kid, his life was much easier than others . With maids at home, he never needed to bother about any household chores .

A few days ago, he had just returned home with an impressive achievement . But before he could fully enjoy his life, he was now picking up stones on the streets . What a tragedy!

Why was he so goddamn unlucky?!

Moreover, the popular girl Xu Wenxin seemed to be interested in Lu Shu as well . Chen Zuan felt that Du Xuemei was the only girl left in his soul mate list, although he had never asked whether Xuemei would be willing to accept him .

Du Xuemei was another legendary girl in their circle . However, unlike Xu Wenxin, what was so unique about Xuemei was her exceptional talent . This Xuemei was not even as pretty as Wenxin, though her vibe was attractive .

“Let’s find a metro station with a lot of people . Don’t performers always do that?” Lu Shu said, as though it was only reasonable that way .

“Performers?!” Chen Zuan froze, “Perform what?”

At that time, they were just at the entrance of a metro station . Lu Shu walked down the staircase first, “Hurry up!”

Usually, performing in metro stations was prohibited . But unlike begging, there were no clear rules on that .

Lu Shu despised begging too . Indeed, nowadays, many beggars were just trying to leverage people’s kindness for easy money .

In the past, despite his own plight, Lu Shu would still give some coins to the elderly beggars on the streets . After all, they had no means to keep themselves alive .

But for younger ones, Lu Shu would never give a cent . Honestly, they could even make a living by folding boxes for charity organizations .

Before they reached the bottom of the stairs, they both heard someone singing in a hoarse voice further down the passageway . It sounded like a person was singing softly while playing the guitar .

When they looked down, they saw a middle-aged man with a guitar sitting in the passageway . His melodies were beautiful, “The world outside is wonderful, the world outside is cruel . When you have nowhere to go, remember I’m here waiting for ya…”

“So good,” Chen Zuan commended .

“Yea, he’s good,” Lu Shu shot a glance at the guitar case in front of the man . There was already quite a lot of money inside . It seemed the commuters at this station were kind hearted enough to give something .

Lu Shu called this market investigation . But of course, he would not rule out the possibility that the man had put in some money himself to persuade others to give .

However, that was clearly not applicable to the two of them, who were totally penniless .

“Alright . Let’s start!” after a deep breath, Lu Shu said .

Chen Zuan suddenly had a hunch that something bad was going to happen .

…

The metro station was bustling with commuters . The volume of passengers had grown larger when it was evening time .

The middle-aged singer was dressed rather fashionably, with the slight atmosphere of a last-century Hong Kong star . He sang softly, “It was so long ago, when I belonged to you, and you belonged to me…”

He frowned when Lu Shu and Chen Zuan approached . After the pair had started offloading their stuff beside him, he could not help but say, “This is my place . Please leave . “

Lu Shu was stunned . In fact, they were relatively far apart by at least ten meters . Although ten meters was not that far per se, it was already far enough .

Lu Shu had never planned to have any quarrel with the man and they would leave once they got their starting funds . But in spite of the man’s gentle appearance, his words were not kind at all .

Who were you talking to? Was this place your home? As the saying went, one cannot judge a book by its cover . Since the man looked like a reasonable person, Lu Shu had purposely kept his distance so as to minimize his disturbance . Unexpectedly, however, that man was actually so rude .

Without a word, Lu Shu carried the sack of stones and closed the gap until there was only one meter beside the man .

The man sneered, what can you do? If you want to compete with me, so be it . He continued singing, “When the sun sets…”

Ka! His singing was interrupted by a cracking sound nearby . When the man turned to look, he saw Lu Shu smashing another stone against his forehead . Ka! The stone broke into pieces again…

“Take a look . Take a look! The amazing breaking stones with forehead!” Lu Shu shouted cheerfully and then chopped another one into halves with his bare hands, “And chop stones with bare hands!”

The singer freaked out upon seeing Lu Shu smashing stones with his forehead non-stop like a mad man!

The original graceful scene collapsed instantly and started to get scary .

The commuters were shocked too . What was happening?!

Haha, let alone them, even Chen Zuan was stunned . Were all Class C experts’ heads this hard?!

“Are those fake?” someone remarked in disbelief .

Lu Shu grinned . He passed the person a stone and watched as he hit it against the floor . It was indeed a real stone!

But before he could say anything, Lu Shu took the stone from his hand and smashed it against his forehead . Ka, the stone broke into pieces again .

Lu Shu laughed, “The secret to breaking stones with my chest is the result of precise calculations of pressure and force . You see, the pressure on your chest is small given the large surface area and the small impact point . Moreover, that one hasn’t been trained . The person beside him won’t hammer that hard in order to protect the person underneath . But mine is even more amazing . I can withstand great pressure…”

Lu Shu made his audience struggle to understand . Many dropped some money and left immediately . There was one, five and ten yuan . This performance was too violent for the heart!

Chen Zuan quickly collected all the money . All their food depended on it!

Lu Shu watched as they left while he continued smashing stones, “Thank you! Have a nice day!”

The singer almost wanted to cry . What the hell was that? They were from a completely different world! Theirs was so bloody!

The man was at a loss and did not know what to do . He clenched his teeth and continued singing, “Though the sky was raining…”

“Ka!”

“Still, I’m waiting for your return…”

“Ka!”

In that instance, the man named Wang Xianda had made a contribution of over three thousand distress points to Lu Shu . With their separation of a mere one meter, the disturbance was unavoidable .

But Lu Shu did not bother to care so much . When they had collected about 400 yuan, Lu Shu left with Chen Zuan . Their deeds were not the same as other common performers, as they might be suspected of disrupting public order…
