Chapter 69: The Past

"Zhang Lan?!Is it really you?!You're not dead?!" Ji Chen got up and ran towards the woman on the horse.

"Hey, what are you doing, I don't know you!" the woman reined in her horse and shouted to Ji Chen.

"Where did you come from, dare to offend our Miss Fan!" The subordinate dressed as a subordinate immediately flipped off his horse and pushed Ji Chen away.

"Miss Fan, she's obviously Zhang Lan! Zhang Lan, don't you recognize me? I'm Ji Chen!" Ji Chen shouted at the woman despite the man's obstruction.

"Bold!" The golden light flashed in the man's hand, Ji Chen was punched in the chest, rose to the ground, flew more than a foot in the air, and then fell to the ground.

The Demon Heart Transformation Sword in Ji Chen's hand fell to the side, and the coarse cloth on the hilt of the sword slipped off, leaking a blood-red corner.

After Ji Chen landed, he hurriedly climbed over, picked up the magic sword, rewrapped it, and then hugged it in his arms.

However, the exposed corner was seen by the young man on the horse, and he saw the man's sword eyebrows furrowed, and he began to look at Ji Chen seriously.

"Where are you from. The young man stared at Ji Chen and asked.

Ji Chen raised his head, pointed to the desert outside the city gate and said, "There." ”

When the young man heard this, his eyes narrowed into a line.

"Do you have any acquaintances in this city?"

Ji Chen shook his head: "No." ”

"That's the ronin, huh?"

"Sort of. Ji Chen glanced at the woman on the horse, lowered his head and said.

"Then let's do it, you don't have anywhere to go anyway, so it's better to be a guard at our mortal house. Even if you can eat with a mouthful of food, no one will dare to bully you. The young man said, glancing at the guards who had just beaten Ji Chen.

Hearing this, Ji Chen hesitated slightly.

"Why? "Why?" the man asked.

Ji Chen shook his head.

The young man sighed, rolled his eyes, and suddenly said, "My family Ling'er just lacks an entourage, why don't you be her personal guard?"

"What?!, how can a beggar like him be my personal guard. The woman on the horse dissatisfied.

The young man waved his hand at her, not paying attention.

"How?" asked the young man again.

Ji Chen was a little moved, he was helpless here, if he could have an errand, he could settle down first, and if it was the woman's personal guard, he could just further explore the identity of the woman.

Seeing that Ji Chen still didn't agree, the subordinate immediately pointed at Ji Chen and said, "You really don't know what to do, I don't know how many people in the entire Qianye City want to enter the Fan family, what are you hesitating about now that Lord Fan takes you in!"

Ji Chen looked at the man, and then at the woman on the horse.

"Yes, I do. ”

"Haha, okay, Bo'an, just let him sit behind you. Seeing that Ji Chen finally agreed, the young man laughed and said to his subordinate.

"Yes. Bo An answered, and then took Ji Chen on the horse.

"Don't get out of the way yet!" Fan Ling'er scolded at the escort who was the leader.

"Yes, yes, yes!" the man hurriedly beckoned everyone to retreat.

"Bo'an, give them the wild things you hunt, and you should be able to resist Ling'er's whips. As he passed the city gate, the young man said to Bo'an.

"Yes. Boan threw the animals hanging from the horse's neck to the guards.

......

Ji Chen sat behind Bo'an and followed the woman and the man into the city.

"Inferior treasure weapon, one of ten medium spirit cores!"

"One grade of the spirit pill, one grade of the blood pill, fifty medium spirit cores in a bottle. ”

"How to sell ......"

“......”

All kinds of shouting filled the city.

Ji Chen saw that there were a lot of pedestrians coming and going in the city, and there were many shops and pavilions, for example, the shop where weapons were bought was called the Hidden Soldiers Pavilion, and the shop where the pills were bought was called Danlu Fang.

Is this the society of human beings in the immeasurable realm? Ji Chen looked at everything in front of him in disbelief.

It's just that what makes Ji Chen puzzled is that along the way, Ji Chen often sees that many places have been burned down, and many street buildings are being repaired, as if they have just passed through a war.

"Big brother, why are so many places destroyed!" Ji Chen asked Bo An softly.

"Don't you know, there was just a god-forcing ceremony half a year ago, and the entire Dongzhou was hit hard, and our Chiba City was all right, just at the very corner of Dongzhou, so the damage was the least, plus the joint efforts of our mortal patriarch and the Ye family patriarch avoided this catastrophe. I've heard that many cities in other places have just disappeared!" said Bo'an.

"Oh. Ji Chen nodded thoughtfully. "I would venture to ask again, who is the woman on the horse in front?"

"What woman! This is Fan Ling'er, the daughter of the patriarch of the Fan family, you have to be called Miss Fan in the future!"

"Fan, Miss Fan......"

After walking in the city for half an hour, Ji Chen found that more and more people in the city greeted them respectfully when they saw them: "Lord Fan, Miss Fan." ”

Finally, after Ji Chen and the others passed through a market, Ji Chen saw a magnificent mansion.

The mansion seems to be divided into two inner floors, the outer ring of the buildings is one floor, and there are many pavilions of different heights in the center.

Ji Chen sat behind Bo'an and saw Fan Ling'er and the young man driving to the front of the mansion, and there were four people in cyan armor at the door who immediately walked forward and saluted.

Fan Ling'er and the young man nodded slightly, then dismounted and walked straight into the mansion.

Ji Chen followed Bo'an a little behind, and when Ji Chen dismounted, he saw that the young man was still standing at the door waiting for them.

"My lord. Knowing that the man must have been commanded, Boan stepped forward.

"You can arrange a place for him to live and help him settle down. Lord Fan said to Bo'an, and then said to Ji Chen: "You go down with him first, and I will come to see you in the evening." With that, Lord Fan smiled at him and walked away.

"Boy, are you lucky to walk shit?!Lord Fan takes care of you so much?" Bo An patted Ji Chen's shoulder and said.

"I don't know, what does Lord Fan do?" Ji Chen scratched his head and asked.

"Lord Fan is the younger brother of the head of the Fan family, and he is also the second-in-command of our Fan family, if he takes care of you, you can go sideways in this Chiba City in the future, of course, as long as you don't mess with the people of the Ye family. ”

After Bo'an finished speaking, he led Ji Chen to a courtyard, Bo'an pointed to one of the houses in a row on the opposite side of the courtyard and said to Ji Chen: "The subordinates of all families live in this courtyard and a courtyard next to it, and the subordinates who live in this courtyard are all relatively high-level, so you can live in that room, and I will live next to you." ”

Ji Chen nodded.

"By the way, what's your name?"

"Ji Chen. ”

Bo An nodded and walked to the door of his room, pushed the door and said to Ji Chen: "Well, there are clothes and things in the room, you can get them yourself." By the way, I am the chief manager among these people, and if you don't know anything, you can come and ask me at any time. With that, Bo'an entered the room and closed the door.

Ji Chen also walked to the front of the house that Bo'an pointed out to him, and when he pushed it open, the environment and conditions inside were very superior, and it didn't look like the place where the subordinates lived.

How strong is the foundation of this mortal family!" Ji Chen sighed secretly.

After tidying up a little, Ji Chen changed into the clothes prepared in the closet, and then sat at the table and waited quietly for Lord Fan to come.

Since Lord Fan said that he would come to him at night when they were separated, Ji Chen did not dare to cultivate. He knew that once he cultivated, the movement would be very great, and if he was detected by Lord Fan, he didn't know if it would cause unnecessary trouble, so Ji Chen simply sat there and waited.

When night fell, Lord Fan really appeared at Ji Chen's door.

"Boy, may I come in?" there were two knocks at the door, and then the deep voice of Lord Fan was heard.

"Oh, of course!" Ji Chen hurriedly walked to the door and opened the door.

"What do you command?" Ji Chen asked Lord Fan.

Lord Fan didn't pay attention to Ji Chen, but directly cast his eyes into the house, as if he was looking for something.

"Lord Fan?" Ji Chen asked again.

"Oh, it's nothing, let's go sit down first. Lord Fan said, and then walked directly past Ji Chen into the house, and Ji Chen hurriedly followed.

"From today onwards, you will be the guard of the Fan family, let me see if you can adapt. Lord Fan said as he looked inside the room.

"Thank you for your concern, and the kindness of the reception will not be reciprocated, and there will be discomfort there. ”

"That's good. What's your name?"

"My name is Ji Chen. Ji Chen was replying, when he suddenly found that Lord Fan had set his eyes on the thing wrapped in coarse cloth on his bed.

"By the way, what's in your package, I see you've been carrying it all the way. Lord Fan said suddenly, and then walked straight to the bed.

"That's a souvenir that my father gave me when he was dying, nothing special?" Ji Chen hurriedly walked over and wanted to pick it up.

As a result, Lord Fan took the first step to pick up the package.

"Let me pay my respects to the treasure that Ling Zun left behind. With that, Lord Fan uncovered the coarse cloth from the package.

The coarse cloth was removed, and there was nothing inside but a half-man-long stick.

"How come?" said Lord Fan's face was black.

"When my father was leaving, he gave me this wooden stick, saying that it was a treasure that had been passed down from generation to generation in our family, although I didn't see anything special, but since my father said it was an ancestral treasure, I had to keep it with me. It just so happened that Lord Fan saw it today, and Lord Fan is well-informed, I wonder if I can see what is so special about this wooden stick?" Ji Chen asked with a slightly sad expression on the side.

When Lord Fan heard this, his brows tightened, he was silent for a moment, and then suddenly smiled: "Hehe, forgive me for my clumsiness, I can't see that this wooden stick has any reputation, but since it is your family heirloom, there must be something in it, so you better keep it." ”

Saying that, Lord Fan handed the wooden stick to Ji Chen with a coarse cloth, and then said with a smile: "Tomorrow Bo'an will tell you what to do, you have a good rest first, and I won't bother anymore." ”

"Thank you, Lord Fan. Ji Chen took the wooden stick, carefully wrapped it, and then thanked Lord Fan.

After Ji Chen sent Master Fan out of the door, Ji Chen looked around left and right, then gently closed the door, and threw the wooden stick on the bed with a casual throw.

Ji Chen went under the bed and fumbled for a long time, and took out the magic sword from it.

Ji Chen thought while stroking the Demon Heart Transformation Sword: Sure enough, I came for this thing, but fortunately, I was witty. Magic Sword, Magic Sword, although you are a magic weapon, I don't have the strength, and I don't even have the qualifications to show you!

"I can only wronged you, you can't show up in a short time. ”

Ji Chen wrapped the magic sword with a piece of cloth, and then held it in his arms.

Piff is not guilty of his guilt, Ji Chen still understands this truth, looking at Lord Fan's performance today, he knows that if he can enter the Fan family, it must be that Lord Fan who noticed the magic sword on his body.

It seems that he must be extra careful, Ji Chen said to himself.

Outside the courtyard, Lord Fan thought to himself as he walked: Good boy, you are really alert, but a wooden stick that has not dried up wants to fool me, it is still too tender, hum!
