Chapter 4 Staying at the Qu Family
The scenery by the lake is indeed beautiful, Lan Qian accompanied their sister and brother to play for a while, sat alone on a stone to rest, looking at the sister and brother who were playing happily, Lan Qian couldn't help but be a little envious, he also had a sister, and he used to have the love of his parents and the care of his sister, but unfortunately now there is nothing, and I don't know if they are dead or alive now.
When he just crossed over, Lan Qian couldn't accept this fact for a while, and as time passed, there were a large number of powerful martial arts to attract him, so Lan Qian slowly shifted his attention and devoted himself wholeheartedly to cultivation. But when he saw this kind of family affection again, the deep emotion in his heart was touched again.
"What are you thinking about Brother Lan?" Uncle Ma's voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"Oh, nothing, just remembering some of the past," Lan Qian came back to his senses. "Why doesn't Uncle Ma play with them?"
"I, I'm old, old, not like my brother, you're young, but you're extraordinary. By the way, where did Brother Lan come from? It should be..."Uncle Ma tentatively asked Lan Qian's origin.
"Huh?" Lan Qian suddenly frowned, and then the spiritual power of his whole body burst out, shooting towards Qu Qiuyun and Qu Sheng like the wind, and at the same time, his right hand touched the space ring in his left hand, and a four-foot long sword appeared in Lan Qian's hand.
I saw Lan Qian holding the long sword high, and the golden spiritual power burst out, forming a golden sword gang on the sword body, like a snake letter, exuding an extremely dangerous aura, this is Lan Qian's spirit sword technique with a spirit-level high-grade long sword, and using the gold element to trigger, the power is not bad.
"Get out of the way, there's danger in the lake", Lan Qian shouted at Qu Qiuyun and Qu Sheng, who had just sensed a huge danger approaching from the lake.
The incident happened suddenly, Uncle Ma thought that he had asked Lan Qian's taboo, Lan Qian was angry, and wanted to deal with Qu Qiuyun's sister and brother, and instantly panicked, shouting at Qu Qiuyun's sister and brother, "Miss Young Master, run away, escape to the woods", and at the same time took out his war knife and rushed towards Lan Qian, but unfortunately Lan Qian's speed was too fast, he couldn't keep up at all, and could only watch Lan Qian swing his long sword at Qu Qiuyun's sister and brother.
At this moment, Qu Qiuyun's sister and brother had been frightened by Lan Qian's momentum, and they didn't even have time to escape, sitting on the ground, their eyes closed, hugging each other, their hearts full of fear and regret.
"Bang", only to hear a loud noise, the long sword in Lan Qian's hand did not fall on the heads of Qu Qiuyun's sisters and brothers, but slashed at a giant crocodile that had just rushed out of the lake, with a bloody mouth, rushing towards Qu Qiuyun's sisters and brothers.
The long sword slashed at the hard scale armor on the back of the giant crocodile, leaving only a shallow white mark on it, but under the huge bombardment force, the giant crocodile was still blasted into the lake by Lan Qian. Lan Qian put away his long sword, quickly ran to Qu Qiuyun's sister and brother, grabbed the two of them, and left quickly, Uncle Ma also followed Lan Qian when he saw this, and secretly felt ashamed of his guess just now.
As soon as Lan Qian's four people left with their front feet, a huge wave burst out on the surface of the lake, and above the waves, the giant crocodile roared in the direction of Lan Qian's departure, it was not fast, and it knew that it could not catch up with Lan Qian and the others, so it could only express its anger like this.
Lan Qian and the four of them ran for several miles, and did not stop until they felt safe enough. Lan Qian put down the Qu Qiuyun sister and brother, sat on the ground and gasped, the right hand that had just held the sword was still aching.
"Fifth-level demon beasts! There are actually fifth-level demon beasts in this lake", thinking that he was still taking a bath in it before and sleeping on the side, Lan Qian couldn't help but feel a little afraid.
Qu Qiuyun's sisters and brothers were a little frightened, especially Qu Sheng, he was probably protected since he was a child, and he hadn't experienced any danger.
"Thank you Brother Lan for saving your life, before me...", Uncle Ma thanked Lan Qian for saving his life to Qu Qiuyun's sister and brother, and also felt sorry for his previous attitude.
However, Lan Qian didn't care, "Uncle Ma doesn't have to be like this, it's normal to be cautious when you go out!", Lan Qian didn't know that Uncle Ma was talking about the giant crocodile attack, thinking that Uncle Ma was talking about inviting Lan Qian.
After resting for a while, Lan Qian and his party began to walk south, heading towards Qu's house.
An hour later, Lan Qian and the four of them returned to the valley where Qu's house was located, and saw that the valley was very beautiful with red flowers and green grass. Patches of farmland are neatly distributed in the valley, and the breeze blows, setting off layers of blue waves. At the foot of the mountain at the edge of the valley, a group of wooden buildings are built against the mountain, simple but sophisticated, and the eyes are striking.
"What a beautiful house", Lan Qian couldn't help but admire.
"I'm right, Brother Lan", after an hour of relief, Qu Sheng gradually recovered from the shock, "The middle building is our house!"
Lan Qian looked in the direction of Qu Sheng's finger, and saw that in the middle of this group of buildings, there was the largest and finely carved Zhuang Courtyard, which was extraordinary, and it seemed that the owner of this valley should be the Qu family.
Soon, Lan Qian and the others came to the gate of the village, and the two guards at the door saluted Qu Qiuyun's sister and brother and Uncle Ma respectively, "Miss, young master, leader Ma", and then looked at Lan Qian, a stranger, with a scrutinizing look.
"This is Lan Gongzi, my life-saving benefactor," Qu Qiuyun introduced.
"Go in and report to the master, saying that the young master and the young lady are back, and there are guests coming, go quickly!", Uncle Ma commanded.
"Yes!", the guard hurriedly ran in to report.
"Lan Gongzi, please"
"Please"
Lan Qian and the four of them walked into the courtyard, passed through a wisteria rosewood corridor, and came to a hall.
When I walked into the hall, I saw a middle-aged uncle sitting in the middle of the hall, with a square face, kind and upright, presumably very handsome when he was young. Lan Qian couldn't see through his strength, he should be a high-level military general or a martial marquis. There were three people sitting on the chairs on both sides, one was strong and mighty, and his strength was a third-order general, one was slender and capable, and his strength was also a third-order general, and the last one was a short, round-faced, second-order general.
"Dad", Qu Sheng ran towards the middle-aged uncle in the middle.
"Dad, let me introduce to you, this is Lan Qian Lan Gongzi, we met in the inner island, and saved our lives", Qu Qiuyun introduced.
After Qu Qiuyun's introduction, Lan Qian also knew that the middle-aged uncle was Qu Qiuyun's father Qu Bincheng, the brave one was Xu Yang, the slender and capable one was Liao Ming, and the short and round-faced one was Wang Hao, and the three of them and Uncle Ma Heng were the four leaders under Qu Bincheng.
After Ma Heng's simple explanation, Qu Bincheng roughly understood the ins and outs of the matter.
"Lan Gongzi is young, but he is already a third-order martial artist, and his talent is extraordinary, the old man represents the Qu family, thank you for saving your life to the dog girl. Come, prepare a table of good food and wine, I will entertain the distinguished guests. ”
"Thank you, Elder Qu!"
"Brother Xiaolan is good, I see that you are less than 30, and you actually have the strength of a third-order martial artist. After eating, let's learn from each other and have a good time, how about it?", Liao Ming knew that Lan Qian was a third-order general, and he couldn't wait to compete with Lan Qian, over the years, he has been pressed and beaten by Boss Xu, he is extremely unhappy, Wang Laosan and Ma Laosi are too different in strength, there is no challenge, now when he meets Lan Qian, he wants to vent and vent, it is extremely refreshing to think about it, and now he is looking at Lan Qian with a longing face, which makes Lan Qian's face black.
"Uncle Liao, the young man Lan has just arrived, and he hasn't eaten yet, so you want to fight with others, is this like a word?", Qu Qiuyun was also speechless for a while.
"Second brother, you have to think about it, don't lose the name of our four leaders", Liao Ming's idea, Xu Yang guessed it, but he also wanted to see Lan Qian's strength, so he opened his mouth to stimulate Liao Ming.
"Hmph, boss, you don't underestimate me"
"Okay, okay, let's eat first, if you want to compete, let's talk about it later, eat first now", Qu Bincheng also wanted to understand Lan Qian's strength, "Let Lan Gongzi smile." ”
"Where, where, I actually want to compete with Uncle Liao, or tomorrow morning, how about it?" Uncle Liao!"
"Okay, happy, I'll wait, hahahaha", Liao Ming seemed to have seen his victory.
"Let's go, let's eat!"
Lan Qian and the others came to the dining room, and soon the dining table was filled with all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and Lan Qian's saliva almost flowed out.
Since coming to this world, Lan Qian has not eaten. I didn't know the taste of meat for two years, and when I saw the delicious food on the table, Lan Qian finally didn't let Harazi flow out.
Lan Qian's eyes widened, staring at a table of meat tightly, thinking about which one to eat first, all of them were food from another world that he hadn't eaten, and he was excited when he thought about it.
"Lan Gongzi, is the food not to your taste?", seeing Lan Qian looking at the food on the table with an exaggerated look, Qu Bincheng couldn't help but ask.
However, Lan Qian's mind was now full of the meat on the table, and he didn't hear him speak at all.
"Young Master Lan?", Qu Bincheng looked at Lan Qian suspiciously.
"Young Master Lan?", Qu Qiuyun was also puzzled.
"Ah??? what are you talking about?", Lan Qian finally came back to his senses.
"Lan Gongzi, is the food not to your taste?", Qu Qiuyun asked cautiously.
"No, no, it looks delicious!", Lan Qian hurriedly waved his hand and replied.
"Then eat, Lan Gongzi, you're welcome!"
"Okay, you're welcome", Lan Qian opened his mouth after speaking.
This meal was extremely refreshing for Lan Qian, because of the nourishment of spiritual power, the meat of the demon beasts here was very delicious, the taste was excellent, and it also contained some pure energy, coupled with the exquisite cooking skills of the Qu family, so that Lan Qian couldn't stop eating at all, and he couldn't wait to make up for all the things he hadn't eaten in more than two years.
This meal also made the Qu family stunned, and Qu Bincheng even smiled bitterly, "This guy is here to eat." ”
"Lan Gongzi eat slowly, there is still a lot of food at home!" Qu Qiuyun persuaded Lan Qian with an embarrassed expression.
"Brother Lan, you haven't eaten for a few days?", Qu Sheng asked curiously.
Lan Qian's mouth was full, and he stretched out two fingers at Qu Sheng.
"Two days?"
Lan Qian shook his head as he chewed his food.
"Two weeks?"
Lan Qian still shook his head.
"Two months ???", Qu Sheng couldn't help but raise his voice, how could he survive without eating for two months.
Lan Qian still shook his head, swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Two years!"
