Chapter 1004: Chapter 1004: There’s Only One Step Between Shamelessness and Invincibility

"Hmm? Why?" Everyone was puzzled.

"The tortoise just had to shed its vest, and voila, it’s still that incredibly fast tortoise!"

"Oh my god!!!"

Someone couldn’t take it anymore and blurted out, "You’ve really got talent!"

Your expression was particularly animated, "Let me continue. A man accidentally lost his newly earned salary, and when he got home, his wife was furious, scolding him for nearly an hour. Finally, she stopped berating him and asked, ’How would you feel if you couldn’t see me for three consecutive days?’ The man blurted out, ’I think I would feel pretty good.’ As a result, his fierce wife unleashed the family discipline on him. As for what that discipline was, hehe, just listen and you’ll find out. He didn’t see his wife on the first day. Nor on the second or third day. Finally, on the fourth day, as the swelling on his face went down a bit, he could barely make out a glimpse of his wife from the corner of his left eye. Ahahaha, ohoho, isn’t that hilarious? Hahaha..."

No one responded. Some people were already rolling their eyes, completely revising their opinion of you, completely.

You didn’t seem to care at all about the looks you were getting and continued, "Another one, another one. Once there was a bird that flew over a cornfield every day, but one day, there was a fire in the cornfield, and all the corn turned into popcorn. When the bird flew over, it thought it was snowing and ended up freezing to death."

"Snort!" Finally, someone laughed, though the sound came from inside a carriage, an alluring voice.

Encouraged by someone understanding your cold jokes, you went on, "Actually, the previous ones weren’t even the funniest. I read a joke in a folk book a few days ago that was really funny. Want to hear it?"

Shi Kai suddenly asked, "General, what is corn? Why have I never heard of it?"

Hearing this, you were taken aback, "Uh, don’t worry about those details. It’s just a joke anyway."

"No, no need, hehe, those were already funny enough, hehe." Black Teeth Changzhi quickly intervened, fearing he’d be frozen to death by your cold jokes. He suddenly realized that Boss is indeed Boss, even the power of telling jokes is so formidable.

"Aw, it’s fine, I’ll tell it! Once, a Potato and a Rice Cake got into a fight, and Potato, fuming with anger, kicked Rice Cake right into the Sea."

"Oh... And then what?" Black Teeth Changzhi didn’t want to leave things cold, so he prompted.

"That’s it, now on to the second one," you said matter-of-factly.

The crowd, however, felt like crying without tears—this was simply too fierce!

Getting into the flow, you even began to sway your feet, "Once there was a pair of lovers, and when they decided to get married, war broke out on the border, and the man decided to enlist. But before that, they went to the seaside and agreed to meet there on the same day three years later. The man gave his lover a Ring to pledge their troth. But three years went by and the woman didn’t see her man. Heartbroken, she threw the Ring into the Sea. The woman had misunderstood the meeting place; the man was actually waiting for her. Just like that, they missed each other, leaving a regret. The boy, also heartbroken, decided to live by the Sea waiting for the girl. One day when he was out fishing, guess what he caught?"

"A Ring?" It seemed like this was no longer a joke but rather a story. But since everything was boring anyway, Zhen Nan joined in.

"No! It was Rice Cake! Wahahaha, hahaha..."

You were invincible!

"Let’s continue, I’m not tired. It’s still about that couple of lovers. One day the man heard that his former lover was getting married, and he was heartbroken, so he threw his wedding Ring into the Sea too. A few days later, he caught a fish to eat. Just as he took a bite of the fish, he bit into something very hard. He spat it out and, guess what he saw?"

"A Ring?" Zi Yi asked.

"Not that!" you shook your head.

"Rice Cake?" Zhen Nan asked.

"Hehe, how could it be Rice Cake?" you boasted proudly.

"So what was it?"

"Fishbone, of course!"

"Bang!" A whole group of people collectively face-planted!

Oh sigh, speechless, invincible!

Fortunately, you didn’t continue, or else there would probably be a pile of people fallen and unable to get up.

Once out of Chang’an, it was like you’d transformed, a wild horse breaking free from the reins.

Zhen Nan saw you jump down from a tree, and couldn’t help but walk up to you, laughing sweetly, "I never knew my husband had the talent for telling such chillingly ’cold’ jokes."

"That’s right, who else do you think your husband is?" You were brimming with pride.

After lunch, the caravan rested for a moment and then continued on its way.

The journey was both long and boring; whether your luck was just too good or the public order in the Tang Dynasty was top-notch, you didn’t encounter a single Horse thief or bandit in half a month’s travel. Cough, this was probably because you’d read too many online novels in the past and had hoped that some bandits would appear on the way to entertain yourselves.

Half a month later, you safely arrived at Minzhou.

Outside the city gates of Minzhou, your caravan was met with a grand reception. The Governor of Minzhou, Pei Yuanfu, was waiting for you at the gate with various local officials.

As you disembarked from the carriage, Pei Yuanfu recognized you immediately among the crowd.

"General Luo, you must have had a hard journey," said Pei Yuanfu, corpulent, his face shining with oil, with small eyes and a smirk rather than a smile, clearly no good sort.

However, you had just arrived in Minzhou and naturally wouldn’t offend these local authorities at first, so you also showed a hint of a smile and gave a fist and palm salute to Pei Yuanfu, "You must be Lord Pei, who my Elder brother often mentions."

Though the Luo Family was a military family, Luo Xin had a high status among Civil Officials. By bringing up Luo Xin right away, you gave due face to Pei Yuanfu.

"I am indeed."

In theory, Pei Yuanfu was of the same rank as you. Although his Pei Family was also an Aristocratic Family in the Tang Dynasty, it was a notch below the Luo Family. Besides, with your famous reputation, he wouldn’t dare to be haughty in front of you, the Killing Star.

Among the common people, you were respectfully known as the War God, but for the Literati nobles, you were an out-and-out Killing Star. A man with blood on his hands who slaughters as easily as chopping vegetables, the Great Demon King.

You were not accustomed to speaking officialese, but the smile on your face didn’t fade as you said to the many officials in front, "Thank you all colleagues for coming to welcome me. However, the city gate is only so big, and it’s rather inappropriate to block traffic. You should all head back first."

"General Luo, we have prepared a banquet to welcome you. I hope you will honor us with your presence tonight," said another chubby middle-aged official, squinting and smiling obsequiously.
