Lan Leshui nodded solemnly, "Brother Zhenbang, don't worry, this incident has taught me a profound lesson." If you want to have the right to speak, if you don't have power, then you have to have strength. When there is no power and strength, potential is nothing more than a joke. ”

"Then have you ever thought about joining a powerful and powerful family?" Many big families will recruit some powerful or potential people as the basis for family development, but the recruitment conditions are generally strict, and absolute loyalty to the family must be achieved.

Lan Leshui looked at Long Miaomiao, hesitated, and shook his head.

"Brother Zhenbang, if you are a member of the Red Maple Leaf Family, I will definitely choose to join without hesitation. Although this young lady saved me this time, I have never known her all my life, so how could I easily join her family?"

"What if I invite you to join?" Li Zhenbang looked at Lan Leshui with some amusement.

Lan Leshui looked at Li Zhenbang with some embarrassment, "Brother Zhenbang, it stands to reason that if you want me to join, I should be duty-bound." But this is not a casual thing after all, if you join this family, I can be your subordinate without hesitation to assist you, but join this family......"

Li Zhenbang nodded with a smile, and whispered a few words in Lan Leshui's ear.

Lan Leshui looked at Li Zhenbang in disbelief, "Brother Zhenbang, you're not joking, are you?"

"Would I joke about this kind of thing?"

"Then how do you ......?"

Li Zhenbang interrupted Lan Leshui's words, of course he knew that Lan Leshui wanted to ask him why he chose to enter the school as a commoner instead of being a nobleman.

"A lot of things are actually a last resort, you don't have to ask, you just need to know that I am still the same as before, and I am still the same brother Zhenbang as before. I'll ask you again now, would you like to join the Red Maple Leaf Family?" Li Zhenbang looked at Lan Leshui with a smile on his face, he was very satisfied with Lan Leshui's performance. Lan Leshui doesn't have to be loyal to the family, as long as he is loyal to himself.

"Brother Zhenbang, as long as you look up to me, I don't have anything to say, I'm willing!" Lan Leshui's eyes flashed with a strange light.

"Now that you're the only one who knows who I am, I want you to keep it a secret for me!"

"Young master, don't worry, I will definitely ......"

"What's your name, young master, and call me Brother Zhenbang, do you want to leak secrets for me so soon!" Li Zhenbang patted Lan Leshui's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Less...... Brother Zhenbang, in fact, it is still comfortable to call Brother Zhenbang, and I am really not used to calling me young master. Lan Leshui looked at Li Zhenbang and smiled.

Li Zhenbang took out a smaller family emblem and handed it to Lan Leshui.

"This is a family emblem that symbolizes our non-direct family, and you may be able to use it in the future. ”

Lan Leshui solemnly took the family emblem and carefully put it away, from this moment on, he was a member of the Red Maple Leaf family, more precisely, he was Li Zhenbang's retainer.

"Leshui, I have one thing here that is very good for your cultivation, but there are also some drawbacks. Li Zhenbang hesitated, but still said it.

"Brother Zhenbang, what is it?" Lan Leshui looked at Li Zhenbang curiously.

"Puppet charm, you may feel a little bit when you hear the name. It needs to be made with a little of your blood, burned into ashes and swallowed in water, which can at least double your usual cultivation speed without any side effects, and we can communicate at any time no matter how far away we are. But the shortcomings are also obvious, after taking it, it is equivalent to me being the master and you are the servant, which is a bit similar to the summoner's master-servant contract. ”

"Brother Zhenbang, you are too uninteresting, why didn't you give me such a good thing earlier?" Lan Leshui looked at Li Zhenbang with a complaining face, and the surprise in his tone did not feel embarrassed at all.

"Uh...... Leshui, do you understand? Master-servant contract! Not only do you have no secrets, but your life and death are all in my thoughts. Li Zhenbang looked at Lan Leshui in some surprise.

"Brother Zhenbang, you still underestimate people's thirst for strength! Especially the methods that can improve strength and have no side effects, they are all unattainable!"

"But I have lost my freedom! My life is in the hands of others!" Li Zhenbang said a little strangely.

"Brother Zhenbang, let me ask you a question. Would you kill someone for no reason?"

"Of course not, I'm not crazy. ”

"Will you make me do the impossible?"

"No, it won't. ”

"Would you be free to probe your friend's secrets?"

"I don't have this hobby. ”

First of all, I believe that you are my brother Zhenbang, and I will not betray you. As you said, you're not a murderer, so you're not going to kill me as you please. You don't probe into my secrets, and I don't have any secrets to speak of. I can still get in touch with you at any time if I have something, and I can also increase my cultivation speed, so do I have anything to lose?" Lan Leshui looked at Li Zhenbang with a smile.

"How can you listen to you as if you have taken a big advantage!" Li Zhenbang shook his head and patted Lan Leshui on the shoulder.

"To be honest, I really think I'm taking advantage. Of course, if someone else gives me a puppet talisman, I really have to think about it, and I am absolutely at ease with you. ”

"Anyway, I won't let my life be in the hands of others. Li Zhenbang muttered softly. He didn't think that he was too dependent on others, but he was also indirectly handing over his life to others.

In the end, Li Zhenbang drew a puppet talisman for both Lan Leshui and Chu Ming, which was originally just drawn for Lan Leshui, but Chu Ming's complaining expression made him helpless. Li Zhenbang's current state can fully withstand the increase in spiritual power brought to him by more people when they cultivate.

Li Zhenbang did not include Chu Ming in the family, but wrote him a letter of recommendation, and he could find a job at any time in the property opened by the Red Maple Leaf family in Lingshui Town.

After resting in Lingshui Town for two days, Li Zhenbang and the three of them set off again. Lan Leshui was originally going to set off with Li Zhenbang, but was rejected by Li Zhenbang. It's not that it's inconvenient to take Lan Leshui, but it's hard to take a vacation, Lan Leshui should still accompany his parents and his good brother Chu Ming more.

Li Zhenbang and Lan Leshui finally made an appointment and returned to the college to see each other after the start of school.

Li Zhenbang and the three of them said goodbye to everyone under the gratitude of Lan Leshui's parents, and Lan Leshui's parents almost knelt down for Long Miaomiao after learning that it was Long Miaomiao who saved their son. If it weren't for the crowd stopping them, they would have really fallen to their knees.
