Hong Chuan was also stunned, and after a long while, he said, "It seems that only this explanation makes sense." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoSo, Brother Hong, you have lived in this village for so long, have you ever heard of the legend of any strange fish on Dragon Lake?"

Lu Chen just shook his head and said: "This is really gone, Longhu Longtan, except for this magnificent name, there has really been no movement for so many years, like backwater, no one has ever seen it...... Strange fish. ”

For some reason, he suddenly froze on these last two words.

Hong Chuan didn't notice, just sighed, and then said with a little luck: "Anyway, I really want to thank you Brother Lu this time, otherwise, the little brother will inevitably die here inexplicably, which is really wronged." ”

Lu Chen laughed and said, "It's just a gesture, Brother Hong doesn't have to take it to heart." By the way, what are your plans next, do you want to continue to go to Longhu to find out?"

Hong Chuan pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "The big fish in the Dragon Lake is quite strange, with my current Taoism, I'm afraid that I won't be able to subdue it, so I won't provoke it first." If there is still a chance in the future, when I return to the mountain, I invite a few fellow disciples with strong mana to come over, and I will naturally be able to find out. ”

Lu Chen nodded and said, "That's fine." ”

Hong Chuan got out of bed, tried to walk a few steps in the house, and moved his body again, Lu Chen watched his movements and asked, "How is the injury?"

Hong Chuan said: "It should be fine, but it has been hit by some impacts and the qi and blood are unstable, it seems that it will probably be fine after a day of rest." ”

Lu Chen smiled: "That's the best, so be it, anyway, you also slept here all night, so why don't you live here today." Tomorrow morning, I will go up the mountain with you to the sinkhole and finish your work, so that you will not have to toss again if you can't find the path again. ”

Hong Chuan was overjoyed, and even his face turned a little red, and he said in surprise: "Brother Lu, is this true? I, I ...... it?"

Lu Chen smiled: "It's just to lead the way, it's nothing." Everyone is out and about, just do me a favor. ”

Hong Chuan bowed to the ground, his face was sincere, he looked at Lu Chen and said, "Brother Lu is really a kind person, I am grateful." ”

※※※

The disciples of the Kunlun faction are well-known for their knowledge, and Hong Chuan was full of gratitude when he received such kindness from Lu Chen, and he tried his best to thank Lu Chen, and he must send something to Lu Chen to express his gratitude.

Lu Chen just smiled and excused himself, only talking about trivial things, but Hong Chuan was serious and serious, and then from his mouth, Lu Chen knew that this famous disciple had asked all the way, especially after arriving in Qingshuitang Village, no one was willing to pay attention to him before Lu Chen, everyone seemed to have a sense of disgust and defense, and almost no one was willing to talk to him.

Lu Chen was also stunned after hearing this, then thought about it and said, "Hmm...... Brother Hong, maybe they regarded you as someone who came to grab the opportunity. You know, many people here have worked hard all their lives just for that opportunity, and although they don't know each other, there is always a little chance of stealing their opportunity......"

Hong Chuan was dumbfounded and said, "Just for this?"

Lu Chen also smiled bitterly, and said: "Apart from this, I can't think of any other reasons, but generally speaking, it seems that they are not like this on weekdays, oh, by the way!" He suddenly brightened his eyes, looked at Hong Chuan, and said: "It should be that you were wearing a long sword that day, and you looked like a loose cultivator, which is much stronger than us mortals, if Qianqiumen came to see it, it would naturally give priority to you, a character with some foundation, so those people don't want to talk to you." ”

Hong Chuan came to his senses at this time, and he was speechless for a while, but in such a comparison, his gratitude to Lu Chen was deeper, and it turned out to be a burst of red tape, thanking and gratitude, which made Lu Chen almost a little unbearable.

Until the end, Hong Chuan once again mentioned that he wanted to give gifts to thank him.

Lu Chen resigned again, but this time the strength of the resignation was not too big, who knew that at this time, an extremely embarrassing thing suddenly happened. Hong Chuan, who was still talking in the last second, must have asked Lu Chen not to accept the gift politely, suddenly found that in addition to the long sword tied behind him and not lost, all the packages and belongings he carried with him were gone......

At that moment, in the thatched hut, the two of them stared at each other, and for a long time, neither of them spoke, or did not know what to say.

After a long time, Lu Chen laughed dryly and said, "Maybe it was dropped in the water last night, I don't know if Brother Hong has anything valuable and important missing?"

Hong Chuan's face was swollen and red at the moment, and he seemed to feel ashamed and almost wanted to pull out his sword and commit suicide.

Lu Chen was a little worried when he saw it, but fortunately, this Hongchuan didn't seem to be so brainless, and after a while, he cried and said, "There is nothing important, but this ...... But...... I'm ...... Hey, I'm so sorry Brother Lu!"

Lu Chen looked at him with a depressed expression, although he was a little funny, but for some reason, he suddenly felt a burst of warmth in his heart for no reason, and then shook his head slightly, and said softly: "Brother Hong, do you think I am the kind of person who is greedy for money?"

Hong Chuan was startled, and hurriedly raised his head and said, "No, no, no, I have no such intention!"

Lu Chen smiled and said: "In this case, why are you so depressed, everyone meets in Pingshui, it is fate, why bother with this little property." Come on, I'll take you to the village to drink a few glasses of good wine, and when you get drunk, it's a happy life. ”

As he spoke, he stood up with a smile, and walked out of the thatched hut with Hong Chuan and walked towards the tavern of the old horse in the village.

Hong Chuan looked at Lu Chen from behind, he didn't know what to say for a while, but his eyes were shining, although at this moment it seemed that Lu Chen was just an ordinary layman, and he was a disciple of a famous cultivator, and the difference in status between the two on weekdays was actually quite different, but at this moment, in his opinion, Lu Chen's figure seemed to be getting taller and taller.

As he walked by the Qingshui River, he suddenly thought to himself: "Could this be what my father said about the strange people and strange people in the world?" ”

And Lu Chen naturally didn't think that the somewhat embarrassed Hong Chuan who was following him at this moment had thoughts tumbling in his heart, in fact, whether it was Hong Chuan or Lu Chen himself, they probably inadvertently forgot a fact, that is, ordinary mortals, almost never a person would treat a monk with Taoism so calmly, because not only is there a huge difference in strength between the two, but also the status is also very different.

But for Lu Chen, it seemed that everything was so natural, so natural that not only did Hong Chuan not pay attention, but even he himself didn't notice anything unusual.
