Chapter 228: Target, Donghua City
(6,000 words chapter is coming!)
Without further ado, Lu Fan and Han Feng were ready to set off directly that night, and many things would change if they were late.
But Lu Haoran and Lu Hao asked Lu Fan to wait one more day, one is, first inquire about what things need to be prepared for the examiner, and then prepare a few things before setting off.
And if they run to rush on their own, they will have to go to the beast control to find a flying mount. But in the past few days, when the children of the Lu family came back, they came back with flying mounts, although they were also rented, but they just happened to be able to use them, which was nothing more than to give the beast control more money.
These things also need a day to take care of, and the flying mount also needs a day to rest.
Lu Fan nodded in agreement, since there is a flying mount at home, it would be better. That would leave them with a few more days.
As soon as the discussion was over, Lu Haoran and Lu Hao began to take care of things, and by the way, they also went to ask Zhou Zhen about the affairs on the official side.
Han Feng yawned and went back to sleep.
Lu Fan was idle, so he returned to the room first and closed the door tightly. He entered the Void Mansion and refined a few furnaces of elixir. Then, he tried how far he could go in the Tibetan Pill Hall of the Void Mansion, and got a few good bottles of pills. Then he came out of the room satisfied.
By the time he came out, it was already afternoon.
With nothing to do, Lu Fan began to wander around the courtyard of the Lu family's house, and then went to see what the flying mount to ride away tomorrow looked like, and whether it would be the Sky Sparrow he had ridden.
Along the way, all the children of the Lu family, servants, and guards who saw Lu Fan bowed to Lu Fan.
Lu Fan could see deep admiration and admiration in their eyes.
Nodding slightly, Lu Fan gently returned the salute and continued to wander around.
And before he had gone far, he heard behind him, a female member of the Lu family educating his children.
"Lu'er, you must learn from the Lu Fan family. Become a big hero like the head of Lu Fan's family, you know?"
Lu Er's immature answer sounded.
"Got it, Mother. I'm going to do a good job. ”
Lu Fan shook his head and smiled bitterly, he is now a model for children. As soon as he heard this, Lu Fan instinctively remembered that the name of the Lu family was wasted at the beginning.
Alas, time has changed!
It was only a year or two ago, and now that I think about it, it feels like decades have passed.
All the way to the backyard. Now the Lu family's house is expanding, and the so-called backyard has the size of the entire Lu family's house.
Everywhere it is being repaired, houses are being built everywhere, walls are being torn down.
Lu Fan walked inside slowly, and suddenly heard a cry, or a woman's cry.
Frowning slightly, Lu Fan walked in the direction where the voice came.
In the distance, Lu Fan suddenly saw a woman crossing her waist and scolding a girl.
The girl looked familiar, it wasn't the servant Qin'er who had brought him water just this morning.
The woman who scolded him, Lu Fan also remembered.
Isn't this Lu Tiangang's sister, Lu Hongyu. She looks very imposing!
"Qin'er, you little girl, are becoming more and more arrogant now, and you don't take me seriously anymore, do you think, Young Master Lu Ming has taken a fancy to you and let you stay in your own house, you will be great? You dare to talk back to me? On the contrary, I have to beat you to death today. ”
As he spoke, Lu Hongyu really took out a slender whip from his sleeve.
Qin'er immediately shrunk into a ball, hugged her head and said, "Miss, I don't disrespect you." I'm just going to serve the head of the Lu Fan family in the morning. It's not that I don't serve the young lady. Miss, spare your life!"
Lu Hongyu became more and more angry when he heard this, and directly shook his hand and whipped Qin'er's body.
Thin clothes simply could not stop the whip from whipped it. Moreover, Lu Hongyu seems to have practiced some martial arts, although his cultivation is not high, he only has the appearance of refining his body five or six times, but this time, for ordinary people, it is really a heavy blow.
Qin'er's tears flew out of her eyes.
Lu Hongyu said while smoking: "Okay, you little girl, you still dare to talk nonsense to me." You made me have to dress up myself in the morning, not to mention, you still want to use the head of the Lu Fan family to press me. What kind of identity is the head of the Lu Fan family, can you serve it? You can make it up with me again, and I'll take a look at it!"
As he spoke, Lu Hongyu's whip was raised again.
Lu Fan couldn't stand it anymore, walked out, and said, "Okay, stop." ”
Lu Hongyu and Qin'er immediately turned their heads. When she saw that it was Lu Fan, Qin Erden lowered her head and quickly wiped away her tears.
Lu Hongyu's face changed wildly and threw the whip aside.
Lu Fan looked at Lu Hongyu lightly and said, "Qin'er is there with me this morning, Lu Hongyu, don't punish her." ”
How dare Lu Hongyu talk back to Lu Fan, and said hesitantly: "Lu Fan's family master, I just think she ...... again"
Lu Fan raised his hand to signal Lu Hongyu not to say any more, for Lu Hongyu's character of being high-flying and domineering, and not treating his subordinates as human beings. He has seen enough in Lu Tiangang, isn't Lu Ming like this at the beginning.
Lu Fan said lightly: "Lu Hongyu, you maidservant, I think it's not bad." Just let her stay with me. In the future, help me clean my room, bring me tea, hand me water or something, it's not bad. You wouldn't disagree!"
Lu Hongyu replied repeatedly: "Of course I agree, Lu Fan's family master." It's just that I'm clumsy, a servant girl......"
Lu Fan raised his hand again and asked Lu Hongyu to swallow the rest of the words back into his stomach.
Looking at Qin'er, Lu Fan said, "Qin'er, you can go to my room now to tidy up your things." As long as you are a member of the Lu family, even if you are a servant of the Lu family, the Lu family will cover you. ”
Qin'er almost cried again, nodded tearfully, and walked away quickly.
Lu Hongyu's face was red and white, and her heart was like a knife at the moment.
Because she likes Lu Fan, no one knows that she admires Lu Fan the most.
Lu Fan's deeds, whether in the Lu family's own family or in the collateral lineage, have become myths. Even Lu Fan himself didn't know how far the entire Lu family had touted him in the more than half a year that he had been practicing at the academy.
Which girl doesn't love heroes, Lu Hongyu used to regard Lu Fan as her idol when she was at home.
This time he came to his house because of Lu Tiangang's death, and when he first came, Lu Hongyu was full of sadness. When he met Lu Fan in the lobby, he just looked up and glanced at it.
Now that the grief has passed away, Lu Hongyu doesn't know how much she wants to see Lu Fan. That's why she hopes to dress up beautifully every day in her family, which is why she has the anger that because Qin'er is not there, she can't dress up.
But who would have thought that just when she was teaching Qin'er, the person she wanted to see the most appeared.
Now Lu Hongyu really wants to cry loudly, how could it be so coincidental, now the head of the Lu Fan family must have a bad feeling for her!
Actually, Lu Fan didn't think much about it, Lu Hongyu did this little thing, he saw enough when he was a child, and he experienced a lot. It's not taken seriously at all.
The original Lu Fan might be disgusted with a person because of this kind of thing.
But now, Lu Fan at most feels that Lu Hongyu lacks some life experience.
She is still young, she has never seen the world, and she doesn't know that in this world, there will always be people who are stronger than you.
If you deal with a servant girl who is not as good as you in this way, there will naturally be people who are stronger than you in the future and will deal with you like this. At that time, she will understand the value of being kind to others.
Lu Fan didn't plan to worry about anything with Lu Hongyu, looking at Lu Hongyu's face, Lu Fan thought that she was unhappy about robbing her maid.
After thinking about it, Lu Fan took out a medicinal herb from his arms.
This kind of medicinal materials, the Tibetan medicine hall is piled up, and Lu Fan is too lazy to count them.
However, Lu Fan still solemnly handed over the medicinal materials to Lu Hongyu and said, "An elixir is given to you." You'll find a clever handmaid later. But remember to be friendly, girls often lose their temper and are easy to get old. ”
Lu Fan put the medicinal herbs in Lu Hongyu's hand. Lu Hongyu's face turned red.
He whispered like a mosquito: "Xie Lufan, family master." ”
Then, Lu Hongyu carefully wrapped the medicinal materials in silk and put them away.
Lu Fan nodded and said, "By the way, I heard that you came with a flying mount." Can you show me around? I'd like to borrow it tomorrow. My father, they haven't told you yet. ”
Lu Hongyu hurriedly said: "I have already said that I have handed over the two sky sparrows to them, and now they should have been brought to feed and rest." This kind of skyfinch is very precious, and it eats a lot of meat every day. ”
Lu Fan said: "That's good." I've borrowed your Skylark, and you're going to have to find it again. Well, Lu Hongyu, then I'll go first. Since you have come to this house, you should learn more from your family. Your brother is a man, and I hope you will not dishonor your family's reputation in the future. If you can get a good place at this year's festival. I can consider letting your family stay in this family. ”
After Lu Fan finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Lu Hongyu suddenly shouted and said, "Lu Fan family master, can you guide me?"
Lu Fan turned around and chuckled: "I can't guide you to the whip method." ”
After speaking, Lu Fan left slowly.
Lu Hongyu was stunned for a long time, and then suddenly there was water in his eyes.
"He still hates me, he really hates me. ”
Lu Hongyu bit her lip, and her body was trembling. Then he threw his whip into the distance. She swore she would never use a whip again.
Although Lu Fan didn't look back, he also heard the movement behind him.
Smiling slightly, Lu Fan muttered, "I hope she can get better in the future." ”
With his hands behind his back, Lu Fan walked out of the backyard. He didn't expect that what he said today would be to create a legendary woman for Lu Jiachuang in the future.
All the way forward, since the flying mount had been taken away to rest, Lu Fan didn't bother to bother anymore. went straight to the Lu family's library attic.
Today's library attic looks slightly dilapidated, and it is clear that the restoration project has not yet reached here.
The ink stone at the door was still there, but there was some blood on it.
Lu Fan pushed open the door and walked into the library attic.
At a glance, Lu Fan saw Xun Lao sitting at the door.
The sun shines through the window and shines on the face of the old man. Today's search for old age looks like it is dozens of years old.
The folds on his face, his beard and hair were all white, and the divine light in his eyes was extremely dim.
Lu Fan was slightly startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold Xun Lao's hand, and injected Gang Qi to probe the injuries in Xun Lao's body.
The last time Xun Lao was injured, Lu Fan asked Lao Jiu to heal him well, how could it be like this!
"No hassle. Lu Fan, I am adding an old injury to a new injury, and I forcibly reversed my strength and consumed my life. I'm amazed to have survived these few days. ”
Lu Fan didn't say a word, and continued to inject Gang Qi into Xun Lao's body.
Under his investigation, although there are internal and external injuries to find the elderly, they are simply innocious injuries, how can they make the old man become like this. After careful investigation, Lu Fan found that it was the meridian blood qi of the old man, like a withered tree, and he was reluctant to move anymore.
Is this the table of life force exhaustion?
Lu Fan shouted loudly in his body Lao Jiu, and Lao Jiu still had to come to heal his wounds.
Xun Lao looked at Lu Fan and said slowly: "Lu Fan, the last time you came here to take the Collapse Mountain Fist, I knew that you would have achievements in the future. It's just that I didn't expect your achievements to be so amazing. That's it for now, and I'll definitely go further in the future. As long as the Lu family is here, they will definitely grow stronger and stronger. It's just that I can't see that day anymore. Wait until the Lu family becomes a prestigious family one day. Well, I'm talking about the kind of real big family, preferably the entire Donghua Prefecture, no, the big family that is famous in the entire Wu'an Kingdom. You must come to my tomb and tell me. ”
Lu Fan gritted his teeth and looked at Xun Lao, the Nine Dragons Xuangong Tower in his body had been woken up by him.
Immediately, after a period of probing by the Nine Dragons Xuangong Tower, he said, "Great master." His vitality has dissipated and is difficult to cure. If I had enough energy now and no injuries, I would have allowed him to live for another ten or twenty years. But now, with all my might, I can only let him live a few more hours. ”
Lu Fan shouted wildly in his heart: "Then why didn't you find out when you healed last time." ”
Jiulong Xuangong Tower said: "The last time I healed, I mainly treated his injuries, and I didn't check his vitality in detail. Human vitality is inherently mysterious, and even if the extreme is strong, it is difficult to survive when the vitality is exhausted. Great host, mourn. You can't save him now. ”
Lu Fan took a deep breath, and his lips began to tremble.
At this time, Xun Lao smiled and said, "Okay, I said it, I can't be cured." Lu Fan, don't waste your efforts. I have lived for so many years, life and death have long been seen. When you reach my age, you will know that you can die so peacefully. In fact, I am already very happy. In this world, the weak cannot live well, and the strong cannot die well. I am neither strong nor weak, I spend my life peacefully, and when I die, I have no regrets in my heart, and I am calm. It's already a gift from heaven. ”
Lu Fan raised his hand and said, "Looking for the elderly, don't talk about it." If you hold on for a while, there will always be a way. ”
Xun Lao shook his head and said, "I've been holding on for a long time. In the past few days, Haoran has come to see me, Lu Hao has also come to see me, and Lu Ming has also come. Everyone, I've told you. I didn't want to tell you, you are busy with a lot of things as a family owner, so there is no need to worry about me, a bad old man. But who would have thought. You're here anyway. ”
Lu Fan gritted his teeth and said, "I should have come." Looking for old age, you have made a lifetime of contributions to the family, and it should not end like this. ”
Xun Lao smiled: "What should be the ending." There is always a death for man. But since you're here too, it's fate, I'll tell you something. You come closer to me, and I'm having a hard time speaking louder now. ”
Lu Fan took another step forward, Xun Lao pointed to the ring on Lu Fan's hand and said, "The family master ring, Haoran told you how it came about." ”
Lu Fan nodded and said, "I said, I picked up a strange stone, and then changed it." ”
Xun Lao nodded and said, "That's right." But in fact, Haoran didn't know. As for the stone that was changed into this ring, the origin is actually quite extraordinary. I was there when I picked up the ring. Just ten miles away from us picking up the ring, two masters died. I checked it later and almost stunned me. One of them is Wuyin Wuzun of Wu'an Kingdom, and the other is Wanyang Venerable of the Northern God Kingdom. ”
Lu Fan's heart moved, and he said, "Could it be that they died for this stone?"
Xun Lao shook his head and said, "I don't know, no one knows the real situation." Anyway, after the death of these two people, it almost triggered a big war between Wu Anguo and the Northern God Kingdom. I didn't tell Lu Haoran about it. You should also know your grandfather's personality, what is going on, you can't hide things at all. But one thing is for sure, there must be something extraordinary about this ring on your hand. Either it was left by the strong Martial Venerable or the strong by the Venerable Strong, or it was what they wanted. If you have the opportunity in the future, you can check the origin of this stone, and it may surprise you. ”
Lu Fan nodded understandingly.
Xun Lao said: "Okay, I said so much. I'm tired too, Lu Fan, you go and get busy. I won't be able to die for a while, so let me sit here a little longer. I enjoyed watching the sun outside. ”
Lu Fan was silent for a moment, and finally left slowly.
When he walked to the door, Lu Fan bowed deeply to Xun Lao.
Xun Lao looked at Lu Fan with a smile and closed his eyes.
Lu Fan left the library attic and let out a long sigh.
didn't go far, Lu Fan saw Lu Hao standing outside looking at him.
"You're here. ”
Lu Hao said calmly.
Lu Fan said: "Father." You should sue me. ”
Lu Hao shook his head and said: "This is Xunlao's own choice, you and I have to respect him." Don't worry, for the rest of the days, I will take good care of the old man. Lu Fan, you are busy with your own business. At home, you don't have to worry about it. ”
Lu Fan nodded and walked forward.
When he walked past Lu Fan, suddenly, Lu Hao grabbed Lu Fan's shoulder and said, "Wait a minute." ”
Lu Fan looked at Lu Hao suspiciously.
Suddenly, Lu Hao slowly took out a card from his arms.
It was the gold coin card that Lu Fan gave to Lu Hao to get iron. Looking closely, Lu Fan found that not only did his money not move, but also had some more.
With shock on his face, Lu Fan looked at Lu Hao.
Lu Hao stuffed the card into Lu Fan's hand and said, "You can use the money inside." The family now has a lot of expenses, and they can't give much, so that's all, a total of 3,282 gold coins. It's all I can get together. Lu Fan, you must have spent a lot of money when you go to Donghua City. When you get to Donghua City, if you want to get an official position, you must also pay up and down, and if you have more money, you will have more certainty, and you can use it. ”
Lu Fan almost cried, gritting his teeth, Lu Fan said, "Father." I have money and don't need it at home. ”
Lu Hao smiled and patted Lu Fan's shoulder and said, "Your money is yours." This is what I should do as a father. You have your responsibilities, and I have mine. You have things you have to do, and so do I. Let you take it, and you will take it. ”
Lu Fan took a deep breath and took the gold coin card back.
Lu Hao narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Okay, let's get busy." You have to leave early tomorrow, your injuries have not healed, and you should rest more. I'll go see the old man, you go back to your room. ”
Lu Hao walked to the library attic. Lu Fan stood there for a long time.
This is the Lu family, this is his home.
Even if there was so much unpleasantness, even if he was almost kicked out of the family.
But a family is a family, and family affection is indelible.
Lu Fan retracted the light in his eyes, and after a while, he turned back into the calm and calm head of the Lu Fan family.
He is willing to use his own qiē to protect this family.
Until the heavens and the earth crack, until life ceases.
Walking slowly, Lu Fan walked back to his small courtyard.
At a glance, Lu Fan saw Qin'er who was busy in the small courtyard. She was watering the flowers and plants in the small courtyard, she was doing it very carefully, very carefully, and with a faint smile on her face.
Seeing Lu Fan coming back, Qin'er immediately stopped and said respectfully: "Lu Fan's family master." ”
Lu Fan looked at her calmly and said, "Qin'er." Do you have a family?"
Qin'er nodded and said, "The head of the family, my parents died early, and there is only one younger brother left. ”
Lu Fan nodded and said, "If you have a chance, go and take your younger brother with you." Family, after all, is best together. ”
After speaking, Lu Fan walked into the room and slowly closed the door.
Qin'er's face was excited, this time, she deeply felt that she was with the right person, if she could bring her younger brother over, she was willing to use her life to repay the Lu family and the head of the Lu Fan family.
Lu Fan, who closed the door, directly entered the Void Mansion.
Before leaving, he still has to make some preparations for the family, so let's refine a little more pill and stay......
The next day, the sun was shining.
Lu Fan, Xiao Hei, and Senior Brother Han Feng got up early in the morning.
Before leaving, Lu Fan told Lu Haoran about the formation, and told him that when he used the formation, he must be careful not to be consumed too much.
Lu Haoran was very surprised when he obtained the ability to control the formation, after he tried hard for a while, he finally connected to the formation, watching his grandfather Lu Haoran and Lu Hao both trigger the power of the formation, Lu Fan was relieved to leave the pill and leave.
With the Nine Palaces Iron Xuan Array here, even if the Blood Killing Gate comes to attack again, it will be able to resist for at least a while.
Lu Fan estimated a little, it should take about ten days for them to go back and forth to Donghua City.
The Blood Killing Sect suffered such a big loss, if it sent someone again, it was estimated that it would take more than ten days.
Of course, when they left, there was no fanfare. According to Lu Hao, it is better to block the news. lest the blood-slaying men find out, and send men to intercept them.
Therefore, Lu Fan and Han Feng both left quietly, and even Xiao Hei turned into a puppy and was held in Lu Fan's arms.
Lu Fan didn't know that Xiao Hei could turn back into the size of a puppy, and the spirit beast was really different.
The two of them rode on the clouds and flew directly out of Jianglin City.
All the way to the east, the goal, Donghua City!
