Chapter Sixty-Six: Bizarre Encounters After Returning
Liu Yu and the others used the magic key to open the door back to their home. A flash of light, and they were finally back in their familiar place.
Liu Yu plopped down on the ground, panting heavily: "Oh, I'm finally back. This trip was exhausting."
Xu Xian wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Yes, home is still the best."
Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing couldn't help but laugh at their disheveled appearance.
Just then, the system's voice suddenly rang in Liu Yu's mind: "Host, congratulations on completing this adventure, but there are new tasks waiting for you."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yu almost jumped up: "What? There are more missions? System, can't you give me a break?!"
The system said, "This task is simple: you need to hold a grand celebration for the townspeople within one day."
Liu Yu's eyes widened: "One day? How is that possible!"
Xiaoqing said, "Brother-in-law, stop complaining and hurry up and think of a solution."
So they got busy. Liu Yu was in charge of purchasing the items needed for the celebration, Xu Xian went to invite the townspeople, and Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing were in charge of setting up the venue.
Liu Yu arrived at the market and was dazzled by the variety of things she saw.
He walked up to a lantern stall, picked up a lantern, and said, "Boss, how much is this lantern?"
The shopkeeper held up five fingers: "Five coins."
Liu Yu's eyes widened: "So expensive? Can you make it cheaper?"
The shop owner shook his head: "No, this is already the lowest price."
Liu Yu had no choice but to take out the money and buy it.
He then came to a pastry stall, and just as he was about to pick up a pastry to try, the owner stopped him: "You have to pay first before you can eat."
Liu Yu muttered, "So stingy."
After shopping, Liu Yu carried her bags back home. Suddenly, she tripped over a stone and her belongings scattered all over the ground.
"Oh no, my things!" Liu Yu quickly got up to pick them up.
Just then, a dog ran over, grabbed a piece of pastry, and ran off.
Liu Yu chased after him, shouting, "Stop! Give me back my pastries!"
The dog ran even faster, and Liu Yu was panting heavily.
Xu Xian's situation wasn't going well either. He went door-to-door inviting people, but many refused.
“What celebration? We’re not interested,” an older woman said.
Xu Xian patiently explained, "This celebration is very exciting, with performances and delicious food."
The woman remained unmoved: "I'm not going, I'm not going."
Xu Xian was met with a rebuff and shook his head helplessly.
Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing also encountered trouble while setting up the venue. When they were hanging lanterns, the ladder suddenly collapsed, and the two of them fell down.
"Ouch!" Xiaoqing cried out.
Bai Suzhen said, "Be careful."
They put the ladder back up and continued hanging the lanterns.
After finally getting the venue set up, it was getting dark.
Liu Yu and Xu Xian returned dejectedly.
Liu Yu said, "I bought the things, but I'm exhausted."
Xu Xian said, "Many people are unwilling to come."
Bai Suzhen said, "It's alright, let's think of another way."
At that moment, Liu Yu had a sudden inspiration: "Why don't we perform some shows to attract them?"
Everyone thought it was a good idea.
Xiaoqing said, "I can dance."
Liu Yu said, "I can tell jokes."
Xu Xian said, "Then I will recite a poem."
So they started preparing the show.
The celebration began, and at first only a few people came to watch.
Xiaoqing danced gracefully, but the audience's reaction was lukewarm.
Liu Yu was telling jokes and laughing so hard he was doubled over, but the audience looked completely bewildered.
As Xu Xian recited poetry, swaying his head, the audience began to yawn.
Liu Yu said anxiously, "What should we do?"
Just then, Bai Suzhen used her magic to conjure up some dazzling fireworks.
Fireworks bloomed in the sky, they were absolutely beautiful.
This finally attracted many people to come.
The celebration became lively, filled with laughter and joy.
Suddenly, a child ran over and accidentally bumped into Liu Yu, who stumbled and fell to the ground.
"Oh dear!" Liu Yu exclaimed.
The child was so frightened that he started to cry.
Liu Yu quickly got up and comforted the child, "Don't cry, don't cry, Uncle is fine."
At this moment, the system spoke again: "Host, the mission was completed well, but there is still a hidden mission."
Liu Yu almost fainted: "There's more!"
The system said, "You need to find a mysterious person dressed in red before the celebration ends."
Liu Yu and his group had no choice but to start searching for the mysterious person in the crowd again.
After searching for a long time without finding him, Liu Yu complained, "Where is this mysterious person?"
Just when they were about to give up, Xu Xian suddenly pointed to a corner and said, "Look, there's a person wearing red clothes over there."
They walked over and found an old man selling candied hawthorns.
Liu Yu asked, "Are you the mysterious person?"
The old man smiled and said, "That's right, congratulations on finding me."
Liu Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally, the mission is complete."
After the celebration ended, Liu Yu and the others collapsed to the ground, exhausted.
Liu Yu said, "This day was really exhausting."
Everyone laughed.
Just then, a strange light appeared in the sky...
