Chapter XXIV
CHAPTER XXIV
The miscellaneous servant is a special place in the sect, most of them are mortal teenagers with slightly inferior qualifications, who stayed because they did not want to leave, although they knew that they might not be able to set foot in the immortal path in this life, but they still held a trace of luck in their hearts.
Feng Renxiao is in charge of this miscellaneous service, this person is vicious, small-bellied, and has secretly done a lot of unsightly things, which is simply contrary to the name given to him by his parents. But he is very good at flattering people, and he himself has cultivated the Shangqing Sect's mental method to the second layer, and his cultivation is also in the second layer of the Qi Condensation Realm, so he was arranged in this miscellaneous place and became a steward.
Feng Renxiao looked at Zhang Ergou behind Lu Fan, although he is now just a disciple of the yellow-clothed miscellaneous service, but relying on his own cultivation, there are people behind him, so he doesn't care much about Zhang Ergou, an outer disciple, and said with an unkind face:
"This junior brother, you just said that we were all eliminated by the trial, this is true, you also said that we have the right to laugh at others, then I will tell you, even if we are all losers, but there is no such waste as this Lu Fan!
Feng Renxiao turned to look at the people in the miscellaneous office, as if he was looking at his own people, and laughed unscrupulously.
"Hahaha! Senior Brother Feng is right! Even if we are the worst in the miscellaneous department, they have all reached more than thirty steps!"
"Yes, yes, yes! This Lu Fan is also worthy of his name, a once-in-a-century waste material!hahaha!"
"Hahaha! Look at our Senior Brother Feng, with unremitting efforts step by step to get to today, even if he is in the miscellaneous service, he is still cultivating hard to the second layer of condensation, just ask this kind of perseverance, who else in the sect can do it!"
"No, Senior Brother Feng is an example of our miscellaneous servants, and it is our pride! It won't take long for Senior Brother Feng to reach the second layer of the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation, and from then on he will officially become an outer disciple of the Shangqing Sect.
Everyone's eyebrows danced, and their mouths were foaming while patting the horses' ass, while ruthlessly trampling on Lu Fan's self-esteem.
Lu Fan looked at the people in the miscellaneous department, most of them were flattering Feng Renxiao, and only a few people had hidden deep resentment towards him in their eyes.
Lu Fan stood in the crowd, surrounded by merciless ridicule, playful guidance, and indifferent gaze, towards a sharp blade that cried blood, straight into his heart, and suddenly his mind became quiet, leaving only the distorted faces in front of him, with a bloody mouth, to swallow himself all...
"This is the man, is this the fairyland I yearn for..."
Lu Fan tried his best to quiet his trembling body, forced down the defense that was about to blurt out in his throat, and his fists turned white, so that his anger would not explode anymore, because he still had two friends by his side, and he didn't want them to be implicated because of himself...
"Ergou, Dasha, the miscellaneous office has arrived, you guys go back!"
Lu Fan's calm face did not show a trace of waves, as if he didn't care about the ridicule and ridicule in his ears at all, and only Zhang Ergou and Shen Dasha knew that Lu Fan was not feeling good in his heart at this time, knowing that his heart was dripping blood...
"I'm not leaving!"
Zhang Ergou, who had never lost his temper with Lu Fan, roared arrogantly, looking at Lu Fan with a stubborn face.
Shen Dasha didn't speak, he took two steps forward and stood side by side with Zhang Ergou, his actions already showed everything.
"Hey, let's go back! I'm fine, besides, maybe I'll have to rely on you two as backers in the future..."
With a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, Lu Fan watched the two of them guarding beside him, and remembered his former wish.
"I want to become an immortal and protect my beloved, but now I haven't done anything, but I have become an object of protection..."
"Brother Fan, these dogs look down on people, if anyone dares to get along with Brother Fan, the dog master has to teach him a good lesson!"
"Brother Fan, we will always be by your side..."
Lu Fan was silent for a while, looked at the two people beside him, and said in a low voice:
"Okay, go back, help me tell Li Qiang and Han Chong, let them also cultivate well, don't worry about me. ”
"Brother Fan..."
"Let's go..."
Zhang Ergou glared at the people around him fiercely, turned to look at Lu Fan, nodded and left with Shen Dasha, they still have their own goals, their own tasks, and their own ways to go...
Lu Fan took a deep breath, and after bowing to Feng Xiaoren again, there was a hint of disgust in his tone.
"Senior Brother Feng, I don't know where my junior brother lives, and I still hope that my senior brother will give me advice. ”
Feng Renxiao raised his chin arrogantly, raised his right hand and pressed it slightly, and the people around him stopped laughing, but the ridicule in his eyes did not dissipate.
"Where do you live?"
Feng Renxiao snorted coldly and walked towards the crowd, and the disciples of the miscellaneous servants around him all got out of the way, bowing their heads and looking respectful.
"The one at the end of this row of wooden houses is your residence!"
Lu Fan looked at Feng Renxiao, who turned away, the cold in his eyes seemed to be able to extinguish the flames, and the people around him also dispersed to be busy with their own affairs, and the open space in front of the stone house suddenly became wide, and there was only a dying young man, lying on the ground and not knowing life and death.
Lu Fan looked at him, looked up at the end of the wooden house, had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and after hesitating for a while, he decided to go forward and check it out.
The young man lying on the ground was already unconscious, and when he heard someone coming, his trembling body quickly curled up again, holding his head tightly, ready to meet the punches and kicks that were coming.
Lu Fan approached his side, sighed lightly, and squatted down.
"You... Are you alright?"
The young man's trembling body suddenly paused, as if he had heard something incredible, and slowly turned his head to look at Lu Fan, with a strong horror on his mud-stained face.
"What's your name, and what did you do wrong to make them like this?"
Lu Fan stretched out his hand and wanted to help him up, but he didn't expect the young man to shake his head and move his body back, biting his lip tightly, tears welling up in his eyes.
"Huh?"
Lu Fan's outstretched right hand stopped in front of the young man, frowned puzzled, and then looked at him helplessly, with sympathy in his heart.
"Where do you live? I'll send you back. ”
Lu Fan withdrew his right hand, stood up and looked at him and said.
The boy struggled to look around, and when he saw that no one was around, he wiped a handful of dirt from his face, put his hands on the ground, and stood up tremblingly, he was skinny, his face was hungry, and his yellow robe was covered with mud, and he looked very wide, and his thin body seemed to be able to blow him down with a gust of wind.
Lu Fan hurriedly went up and helped him up, not caring about his dirty clothes at all, when he touched the young man's skin, a cold chill spread along his fingertips to his heart, making Lu Fan shiver.
"How can it be so cold?!"
When the young man was touched by Lu Fan, he trembled with fear again, and when he found that Lu Fan had not hurt him, his trembling body gradually calmed down, and he looked at Lu Fan's eyes with full gratitude.
"Let's go, I'll send you back. ”
"No... No, you can go quickly! If they see you, you will be implicated!"
The boy shook his head bitterly, a hint of worry flashing in his sincere eyes.
"It's okay, they can't do anything to me!"
Lu Fan felt a little warm in his heart, the young man in front of him was so down-and-out, but he still cared about others, and there might be only one in this miscellaneous office.
"Where's your room?"
Lu Fan helped the limp young man hard, and asked again.
"It's... This... Well, I'm in the penultimate room in this row of cabins. ”
When Lu Fan heard this, he was obviously stunned, and then thought in his heart:
"Isn't this my neighbor..."
Lu Fan smiled at the corner of his mouth, supporting the young man, and the two of them staggered forward...
In the woods not far away, a black shadow hid behind a tree, its eyes were like mung beans, and the eyes of the vulture stared at the direction in which the two of them left, and a burst of viciousness flashed on its face.
"Hmph! I don't need you to be comfortable for a few days, people who Senior Brother Lu can't get used to will die sooner or later!"
With that, he walked out from behind the tree, and slowly walked towards the stone house in the center...
When Lu Fan helped the young man to the last wooden house, he was already tired and panting, this young man seemed to be thin, but he didn't expect it to be so heavy.
Lu Fan rested for a moment, looked at the wooden house in front of him, and his frowning brows were wrinkled together.
The tattered wooden planks were put together in a haphazard manner, and the door panel was an ordinary board, which was forcibly stuffed into it, and it was regarded as a door, and it was barely formed into a house, surrounded by rocks, and a filthy stream flowed on the edge of the wooden house, bringing a pungent stench.
"It's... That's where I live?!"
Lu Fan's heart was full of anger, he endured everything else, but the wooden house is a place to rest, if it is sunny on weekdays, it will be fine, if it is rainy, the roof is full of holes, how can he sleep!
The young man supported by Lu Fan felt Lu Fan's strangeness, sighed secretly, coughed lightly, and then turned his head to look at another dilapidated house not far away, his eyes were confused.
"You... You let me down, I can walk back so close, thank you!"
The young man gritted his teeth, struggled to leave Lu Fan's support, stumbled a little, and almost fell to the ground, because the movement was too big, the wound on his body was involved, the painful teeth grinned, and his face was full of pain.
Lu Fan hurriedly stepped forward to support him again, and vaguely saw a wound on his shoulder, and the blood flowed down his arm, Lu Fan's face changed, and he said in a deep voice:
"Let's go, go to my room first, I'll help you bandage it, too much blood loss will be life-threatening!"
The boy was speechless, looking down at the blood that was flowing from him, and his eyes were hazy with tears.
Lu Fan didn't know how to comfort him, the most important thing was to stop the blood from the wound at the moment, so he helped him into the wooden house.
