Chapter 5: Betting
readx;?ā Where is Master Zu?"
Wu Fan saw a middle-aged man running out of the City Lord's Mansion screaming, and he was barefoot and his hair was scattered, which was exactly what the ancients called wearing his hair and feet. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
This person is expected to be the city lord of this Shuiyue Ancient City.
Wu Fan blinked, and the eyes that looked at the old beggar Yan Zhongming were a little different.
The old beggar naturally noticed the change in Wu Fan's expression, but he felt that this was not enough, and he had to shock Chen Yufan even more.
He glanced at the middle-aged man lightly, and said, stinky boy, you are getting more and more magnificent now, and you actually asked someone to block Master Zu outside?
The city lord's face suddenly changed in fright, and the commanding guard immortal soldier just now directly fell to his knees with a pop, and threw his big mouth in his face again and again, as if the big mouth didn't want money.
Patriarch and grandfather, the villain has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, the villain is wrong, please spare the villain!
These immortal soldiers are all the strength of first-level true immortals, and they are all master-level existences in places like Eight Treasure City. But in this city lord's mansion, he looks like an ordinary subordinate.
Wu Fan's eyes widened in surprise.
Before the old beggar Yan Zhongming could speak, the city lord said, you are so blind, you don't need to guard the gate of this mansion, go directly to the manure tank in the backyard to dig out the dung!
After hearing this, the immortal soldier not only did not complain, but said gratefully, Thank you, my lord, thank you, Grandpa! Hurry away and leave, for fear that if you run a step too late, you will suffer a greater punishment.
Yan Zhongming smacked his lips, obviously a little unsatisfied, if he was asked to punish this blind little soldier, at least he would have to find someone to play him a few hundred times, until it was swollen.
But since the city lord has spoken, Yan Zhongming can't refute the face of this little apprentice, so that's it.
The city lord then said Master Zu, don't stand here anymore, please come to the mansion to talk.
Yan Zhongming snorted and said, "I look like an old beggar, it doesn't seem convenient to enter your city lord's mansion, don't get your carpet dirty."
The city lord oozed sweat on his forehead, and said Master Zu, you are slapping me in the face, even if it is a precious carpet, it is also an honor for you to step on it!
Old Strange obviously liked the flattery of this city lord, he just wanted Wu Fan to see this city lord's respect for him.
After all, the city lord of Shuiyue Ancient City is already a very high status in the eyes of ordinary people, and with Wu Fan, a rookie who has just arrived and even wants to consult the classics to understand the fairy realm, this city lord is even more high.
But this high-ranking city lord saw himself, but he was as respectful as his grandson saw his grandfather, isn't this enough to show that the old beggar is strong in me?
You stinky boy still can't obediently come to worship me as a teacher?
I have to say that Yan Zhongming's abacus is good, and Wu Fan is really shocked.
However, Wu Fan also felt this deliberateness. If there was no such intention, maybe he would really worship this old beggar as a teacher, but because of this intention, he had a sense of resistance in his heart, that is, he didn't want to worship him as a teacher.
Therefore, Yan Zhongming saw that Wu Fan's face was indifferent, as if he was watching him perform a one-man show.
Hey, you stinky boy!
Yan Zhongming was aroused by Wu Fan instead, you kid don't worship me as a teacher, right, I still have to let you worship!
Thinking so in his heart, he walked into the City Lord's Mansion with a menacing attitude.
The city lord saw Master Zu looking so angry, he was uneasy, and muttered, Master Zu is still angry, what can I do?
Seeing Wu Fan, the city lord's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, Little brother, ...... you?
When Wu Fan saw the city lord of the ancient city, he also looked cautious in front of him, and he sighed quite in his heart, a big city lord of this level was only afraid that he would treat himself as an ant in normal times.
Wu Fan's thoughts flashed in his mind, and then he replied in a clear voice, I am a traveler, passing by your city, I came to visit.
A strange look appeared on the face of the city lord, and he said, "Then you and Master Zu?"
Wu Fan saw the doubts in the heart of this city lord, if he said that you, the ancestor master, wanted to accept me as an apprentice, but I didn't agree, I don't know how this city lord would feel?
In order not to make this city lord feel too weird, Wu Fan smiled and said I just met your ancestor on the road, and we just walked together.
The city lord is also a good person, although after listening to Wu Fan's words, he felt that what Wu Fan said may not be false, but from the importance of the ancestor to Wu Fan, the city lord still decided to entertain Wu Fan as a guest.
Little brother, hurry up, please come inside! The city lord said very politely.
Wu Fan secretly admired the elegance of this city lord, if ordinary people heard him say this, he was afraid that he would be cold-eyed.
Wu Fan stepped into the City Lord's Mansion.
Wow, what a big yard!
The gate of the City Lord's Mansion is very wide, but you can't see the situation inside from the door, and when you really go inside, you really realize what a real big courtyard is.
In this large courtyard, there are many tall wooden stakes, and many people are shirtless, punching and kicking around those wooden stakes, just like those thugs in some film and television works are practicing their fists and feet.
Wu Fan thought to himself, isn't this a fairy realm?
The city lord seemed to see the doubts in Wu Fan's heart, and explained with a smile that these wooden stakes are all made of spiritual roots, and they can be struck every day, and from the contact between ** and spiritual roots, they can break through the confinement of the body and achieve the effect of improving cultivation.
Wu Fan realized that what he saw on the surface sometimes couldn't understand the true essence of it.
By this time, the old beggar was already sitting in the drawing-room, and the old fellow was sitting in the main seat very unimpressively.
Wu Fan couldn't help frowning when he saw the old beggar's appearance, even if this old guy is the ancestor of others, he can't be so faceless, right?
But when the city lord saw the old beggar like this, he became happy, and hurriedly walked over, served tea and wine to the old ancestor, and served him meticulously.
Wu Fan sat quietly on the chair on the side, quietly watching the two perform.
After a while, the old beggar stood up and said, "Xiao Yu'er, are you still doing a good job as a city lord?"
The city lord's surname is Xu Yuyue, and the old beggar has always called him Xiao Yu'er.
Hearing the old beggar ask, Xu Yuyue hurriedly replied, Master Qiqi, I am just casual. It's just a disgrace to your old man.
The old beggar said that it was a little embarrassing, but it was okay. I happened to be in Wenzhu Village in the past two years, and I heard that you, the city lord, deserve the hearts of the people, so I came to see you, otherwise......
When Xu Yuyue heard this, cold sweat flowed directly from his back to his heels, what this ancestor meant was that if he didn't do well, wouldn't he ...... He couldn't even think about it.
This is all taught by the grandfather, and those of us who are apprentices and grandchildren can learn from the grandfather, and it will be enough.
The old beggar smiled and said, although you say so, some people still dislike your ancestor for his low ability, and he is not worthy of being his master!
What the?!
After hearing this, Xu Yuyue was directly furious, there are still such people in the world who don't know what to do?
He said loudly, Master Zu, where is that thing that I don't know what is bad? I'm going to teach him a lesson!
The old beggar said, I am not angry at your grandfather, why are you angry? Besides, that kid does have the capital to look down on your grandfather, have you ever seen anyone in his twenties who has reached the realm of a third-level true immortal?
What the??!!
At this moment, Xu Yuyue almost dropped his jaw in shock, there are still such strange people in the world? In the immortal realm, someone can enter the realm of a third-level true immortal within a hundred years, and he is already a super genius, but there are still people who have reached this realm in their twenties?
How is this possible?!
Master Zu, you're not kidding, are you?
The old beggar said, do you think I'm joking?
Xu Yuyue closed his mouth, it didn't look like a joke. Is there such a person?
So he asked the old beggar, Master Zu, where is that miraculous man? I wonder if the apprentice has a chance to meet him?
The old beggar stretched out his finger and pointed at Wu Fan, and said, Haven't you seen him several times?
This...... I...... This...... It's him?!!
At the beginning, Xu Yuyue did not explore Wu Fan's strength, one was to respect Wu Fan, and the other he didn't feel the need to probe at all, seeing that Wu Fan was only about twenty years old, what strength could he have.
But after the old beggar said this, he immediately probed Wu Fan's strength, he was really a third-level true immortal! And the immortal power was abundant, and he had already faintly stepped towards the fourth-level true immortal realm.
This, this is simply incredible!
Xu Yuyue is not a stupid person, he suddenly understood that the young man in front of him was the apprentice that Master Zu wanted to accept but others were unwilling to.
For a while, Xu Yuyue, the well-informed city lord, didn't know what to say.
The old beggar broke the silence, and he said, you don't need to be surprised, I guess there will be times when you are surprised in the future. Now let me ask you, are there any powerful people in Water Moon City?
Xu Yuyue nodded and said, there are a few, but they are definitely not the opponents of Master Zu. Master Zu asked what was this for?
The old beggar said, you gather them all at once, and I will beat people up.
Wu Fan frowned, this old beggar is making trouble like this, I'm afraid it's endless, and there must be a result.
He thought about it for a while, had an idea, and said, "Uncle, I know that the purpose of your doing this is to let me know that you are strong, and I am willing to worship you as a teacher."
But apparently you can't impress me by doing this, and if you really want to take me as an apprentice, I have an idea, I wonder if you will listen or not?
As soon as the old beggar heard that Wu Fan had taken the initiative to put forward the conditions, he nodded again and again, and said that there is nothing in the world that I can't do, so if you have any requirements, just mention it.
Wu Fan said, I'll make a bet with you, if you win, I will immediately worship you as a teacher!
