Chapter Twenty-Four: Paying Back
Receiving the congratulations and hugs of his relatives, Hu Tian felt very warm, and this lively and excited scene made him temporarily get rid of the troubles brought to him by the Paramita Method. His eyes returned to indifference and clarity.
He seemed to be aware of Lan Jie's gaze, and when he looked in that direction, he also saw Lan Jie looking over. Hu Tian scratched his head embarrassedly, because he still owed her gold coins. Although we met yesterday, it is not easy to say this on that occasion. And in their seats, there were some heavyweights sitting, and he really didn't dare to go over when he came out of the mountain village, and he was a little inferior.
Lan Jie is the daughter of the mayor, and of course there are many high-ranking officials and powerful people in their position. When Hu Tian looked over, Lan Jie waved his hand at him, and suddenly many eyes were cast towards him. Lan Jie is powerful and the mayor's daughter, which is very eye-catching, and her casual actions will attract the attention of countless eyes.
"Huh?" the people around Lan Jie were surprised. They don't seem to have seen her have crossed paths with Hu Tian. They are Lan Jie's group of relatives and friends, and of course they have some understanding of some of her interactions.
Seeing Lan Jie waving his hand, Hu Tian was not indifferent, so he waved in response. Suddenly, I don't know where the courage came from. He asked the elders for some gold coins, and walked in the direction of Lan Jie.
"What did he want the gold for? When did he meet the mayor's daughter? A series of questions poured out, and the Great Elder laughed at each other's questions, and everyone shook their heads at each other.
"This kid is hiding too deeply. Even we hid it. The Great Elder said with a smile. Others chimed in, feeling deeply.
Hu Tian walked to the position near Lan Jie, Lan Jie trotted over happily, and said to Hu Tian with a smile: "Finally willing to come over, you still owe me a favor." ”
"I'm here to return your gold coins, no, give. Hu Tian handed over a small bag containing gold coins in his hand.
"Just to pay back the gold coins?" Lan Jie raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Well, the main thing is to thank you. Hu Tian blushed a little, slightly embarrassed, he didn't know how to answer, he somehow plucked up the courage to come.
"Hee-hee, I'm not in a hurry for this gold coin. When do I need to ask you again in the future, you owe this favor first. Lan Jie said. Hu Tian was a little at a loss, seeing him like this, Lan Jie glared slightly and said: "Don't object, hurry up and take things back, is Miss Ben really lacking this bit of gold now?" I like the favor you owe me." You're getting more and more impenetrable, it's kind of interesting, hehe. ”
"Then if there is anything you need help with, try to tell me as much as possible, I will do my best, of course, although these gold coins are not a single amount, after all, I owe you, as long as you want it, I will give it to you at any time. I don't like to owe people a favor. Hu Tian said cautiously.
"Don't be so serious. Think of it as a kind of fate between us, and I don't mind making you a friend. You won't object to it, will you? Lan Jie smiled heartily.
"Ahh
"Don't want to? Lan Jie seemed a little angry.
"Of course I do. Hu Tian hurriedly responded. He was faintly afraid that Lan Jie would regret it.
"Count you as acquaintances. Lan Jie smiled.
During the conversation between the two of them, the people around them whispered, and everyone was speculating about the relationship between Hu Tian and Lan Jie.
"Sure enough, it's the mayor's daughter's friend, Miss Lan is so powerful, and the friends she has made are also powerful, you didn't see that kid just now defeated the opponent of the peak strength of the seventh layer of the Golden Light Mirror. It's amazing. ”
"He should be the son of a high-ranking official, that's why he got so close to Miss Lan, maybe that high-ranking official wanted to keep a low profile, so he didn't invite many relatives and friends like Miss Lan. ”
All kinds of discussions are spreading and spreading. And Hu Tian's name is becoming more and more familiar to people. One is from his strong strength. The second is the relationship with Lan Jie.
Hu Tian and the others also noticed the curious stares and whispers around them. Hu Tian even felt some hostile gazes. It seems that Lan Jie should have a lot of admirers among these people, showing some resistance and displeasure to Hu Tian who suddenly appeared. Hu Tian was secretly surprised: The pressure of knowing such a charming beauty is really not small.
The more this is the case, the more inexplicable excitement Hu Tian feels, you will be jealous, jealous of you. Although he thought like that, after all, he was a little nervous after receiving so much attention from so many people, and hurriedly said goodbye, saying that he would go back as soon as possible to prepare for the last round of the competition. Lan Jie didn't care about these glances, she was used to it, and she was a person who was not afraid of heaven and earth, in this area, her name spread far away, and she was a well-known naughty ghost.
Hu Tian returned to his seat, a little cold sweat behind his back, which was more nervous than he was fighting on the court. Before he sat down, Hu Xiao and a few of them looked at him inexplicably, what he did today was too mysterious. first his strength, and then his close relationship with Lan Jie.
"Well, I'll go back first, and I'll have to prepare for tomorrow's game. Hu Tianzhi said what they thought, and hurriedly said, wanting to slip away.
"Hu Tian, you're too inauthentic. When did you know such a big beauty, and a beauty with an extraordinary status. Let's leak through the leaks. Hu Xiao, grinning, didn't want Hu Tian to slip away so quickly.
"Well, she was the one we met the night we came, and she was the one I was talking about giving me what I was talking about. Hu Tian had to be honest.
"I don't believe it, it's outrageous to give you something as soon as we met that day. You must have known each other before, can you share your legendary experience? Hu Xiao obviously didn't believe it.
Hu Tian didn't bother to explain, he liked this feeling. He pouted slightly, "Believe it or not, I've already said it anyway, hehe." They were speechless for a while.
"Hu Tian, how is your aura different from others? It seems that there is a big difference from yesterday, is there something wrong with your cultivation? The Great Elder asked with concern, although it seemed that Hu Tian had become stronger, the Great Elder was still a little worried, and he was really worried that something would really go wrong with Hu Tian.
"This is related to the exercises I practice, and it should be a phenomenon to break through. This exercise is an adventure that I got when I disappeared, don't worry, there is no problem with cultivation. Hu Tian explained seriously, relieving the Great Elder's worries.
Since it was an adventure, they were not easy to ask, and since he didn't say it, there was naturally a reason why he didn't say it. Like those who really learn martial arts, they will often undergo transformation because of an adventure, and it is common for them to become a top master. But this adventure is also hard to come by. The Great Elder also travels a lot, and sometimes he just hopes that there will be an adventure somewhere suddenly, so that his cultivation can improve faster, but after living at such an age, he still hasn't encountered it once.
"Hu Tian, although your current strength is okay, but you still need to be cautious, yesterday you went back early, Hu Xiao They stayed yesterday, and they found a few more abnormal competitors. Their strength doesn't look very good, but like you, they often defeat people who are higher than them. What's even more abnormal is that everyone who fights with them is disabled, and even abolished their cultivation, which is very cruel. Because of this, yesterday their village almost got into a fight with other villages. The Great Elder reminded, his eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"Well, I'll pay attention, since that's the case, then I won't go back first today, stay and see. Hu Tian nodded in agreement.
The referee on the stage is constantly announcing the game, the game is continuing, Hu Tian, will they still see an abnormal phenomenon similar to yesterday.
