Chapter 5 Fools are not stupid

.............

After coming out of the Lion Awakening Pavilion, Lu Yan didn't make any stops, and quickly walked in the direction of his house.

Although he didn't get the golden silk dragon ginseng from his so-called grandfather today, Lu Yan was not too disappointed.

Originally, he had already prepared for the worst when he came over, after all, his grandfather had always been so disciplined, and when his family was taken back by the family, he didn't stand up to help him speak, not to mention that he opened his mouth this time to ask for the three-grade elixir of golden silk dragon ginseng.

However, it is not uninteresting to receive the goods, at least I know that the golden silk dragon ginseng is regarded as a reward for the first place in the family competition.

1st place....... Lu Yan clenched his right hand into a fist, and a surging force was about to break out of his fist.

The corners of his mouth were vial, and the corners of his eyes were slightly small, revealing a sneer. Isn't it the first place, and if I get the first place by then, they must be surprised.......

"Hey, have you noticed it, that guy Lu Yi from our miscellaneous courtyard doesn't know what shit luck he has taken recently, and his strength has actually broken through to the fifth layer of body refining."

"What, you mean that fool Lu Yi who chops wood in the miscellaneous room?"

"yes, that's the idiot. ”

"How is it possible, I remember that when I saw him a few days ago, he was only at the third level of body refining, why did he suddenly reach the fifth layer, isn't that higher than us. It won't be a treasure. ”

"yes, I think it's weird too. But he is a fool, he chops wood every day, where can he go to get treasures. ”

"If this news is true, then we used to bully him a lot, and now that he has broken through, he won't trouble us."

Hum... What is there to be afraid of, even if he breaks through, he is just a fool, can't so many of us deal with a fool... Haha.."

Lu Yan was walking, and suddenly a noisy discussion suddenly came into his ears.

Lu Yan stopped, turned around and looked in the direction where the voice came from, only to see several servants of the Lu family under a big tree not far away, talking and laughing in a circle.

Idiot?.... Could it be the fool chopping wood in the Lu family's kitchen?.. In Lu Yan's impression, there seems to be only one person who is called a fool in the Lu family, and Lu Yan still has a little impression of that person, because Lu Yan always feels that the fool is a little different from others. Although Lu Yan had been to the kitchen again for some special reasons, and had seen that person once, Lu Yan already had some strange feelings about him at that time, but Lu Yan didn't observe it carefully at that time, so he didn't pay too much attention to it. But today, when he suddenly heard the words of these subordinates, Lu Yan felt as if something was not quite right.

Thinking about that fool carefully, the only thing Lu Yan knew was that he was originally a member of the Lu family's collateral clan, because his parents were ambushed by the enemy while performing a mission for the family and both died. Like this kind of heirs of clansmen who sacrificed for the family, the Lu family will take good care of them, but I heard that he suddenly became a little crazy and stupid after hearing the news of the death of his parents.

At that time, the family did not know how to arrange it. But one day, the head of the kitchen found Lu Yi holding a machete and constantly chopping wood in the yard, no matter how others called him, he just grinned. Originally, everyone thought that he was just a whim, and they ignored it. Who knows, for several days, Lu Yi came to the kitchen on time every day, didn't do anything, just kept chopping wood with a machete, and over time, everyone got used to it.

I don't know what the reason was for this suddenness, Lu Yan suddenly became interested in this fool, and immediately walked towards the servants.

Young Master Yan......

Young Master Yan.....

When Lu Yan came over, those subordinates also found Lu Yan, and immediately bowed down to Lu Yan. Although they looked respectful on the surface, Lu Yan saw a trace of disdain in their eyes.

Also, the news that he has become a waste person should have spread throughout the entire Lu family after such a long time, a waste person who can no longer cultivate, of course these subordinates will not be very respectful, and now they can still call themselves Young Master Yan, it is estimated that it is also because of his identity as a descendant of the Lu family.

Although he knew this, Lu Yan didn't bother with them, but asked coldly, "Tell me again what you just discussed."

"Ah...."Those subordinates suddenly felt a little confused by Lu Yan's words.

However, after all, these subordinates have been in the Lu family for many years, so they reacted immediately, and then honestly repeated what they just said as they were.

..........

After listening to the words of those subordinates, Lu Yan decided not to go home for the time being, and went to the family kitchen to have a look. He didn't know why he had such thoughts, but there was always a voice in his heart telling him to go and take a look.

It seems that that fool is not stupid, otherwise how could his strength break through to the fifth layer of body refining. Of course, Lu Yan didn't believe that a fool could break through to the fifth layer of refining body by relying on a treasure, unless this treasure was of a high level, along the way, Lu Yan kept thinking about what those subordinates said, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that things didn't seem to be so simple.

Walking through the courtyard, Lu Yan soon came to the back kitchen of the Lu family. At this time, the courtyard was very lively, all kinds of voices were staggered, and many servants came in and out.

As soon as Lu Yan stepped into the gate of the back kitchen yard, those people in the back kitchen noticed Lu Yan's arrival and bent down to greet Lu Yan.

Lu Yan just waved his hand, didn't say much, and walked straight to the firewood room on the left side of the courtyard.

Seeing that Lu Yan didn't respond, those subordinates were all busy with their own things, but there were still a few people who pointed at Lu Yan from behind.

When he came to the firewood room, Lu Yan looked left and right, but he didn't see the fool. At this time, there happened to be a subordinate passing by with a plate, and Lu Yan hurriedly grabbed him and asked.

"What about that fool who chops wood here on weekdays," Lu Yan asked with a smile

Seeing Lu Yan's question, the next person hurriedly returned: Young Master Yan is looking for that fool. That fool is well-known to us. .......... The man said it crackling like a soybean

"I'm asking where your fool went, I'm not here to listen to your nonsense," Lu Yan scolded with some impatience.

"Lu Yi hasn't been to this firewood room for several days", the man was frightened by Lu Yan's scolding, and hurriedly replied respectfully.

After Lu Yi asked where the fool lived again, he left the back kitchen.

。。。。。。

According to the information he got from that subordinate, Lu Yan quickly found the place where the fool usually lived. This place is on this side of the mountain behind the Lu family's compound.

A slightly dilapidated tiled house stands alone at the foot of the mountain, surrounded by half-meter-high weeds and shrubs. The ten-metre area around the tiled house is separated from the weeds and shrubs by a wooden fence. There are no weeds in this middle area, which is obviously the reason why the owner of the house often trims it. This further verified the conjecture in Lu Yanxin's heart.

I saw that the doors and windows were closed, and a chuckle overflowed from the corners of Lu Yan's mouth. And then knock, knock.... There was a knock on the door.

After about a quarter of an hour, the door suddenly opened, and I saw a figure standing in the middle of the door, grinning and looking at Lu Yan with a smile.

"You're really here", Lu Yan looked at Lu Yi's sloppy image, and felt a little funny, but he still said kindly.

Hey----- hey. I didn't see any other response from the idiot, just giggling there.

Lu Yan had already known the fool's reaction, so he walked into the room directly regardless of anything else. Lu Yi, who was originally smirking, suddenly stretched out his hand to block Lu Yan's footsteps. The whole person was still grinning and looking at Lu Yan with a smirk.

Hehe, I've been standing at your door for so long, don't you ask me to come inside and do it, Lu Yan said with a smile.

Hehehe........ The fool is still grinning.

It seems that if you don't come to the truth, you won't admit it. Looking at this fool's reaction, Lu Yan sneered in his heart.

Don't pretend, I know you're not stupid, don't you tell me that the ground outside is so clean and that fence would be something that a fool can do, Lu Yan pointed to the outside and said slowly.

Bang Bang ........ It's amazing, I can judge that I'm not a fool through such details, it seems that although our Young Master Yan has broken meridians, his brain is not bad. The fool who was still grinning and smirking suddenly seemed to be a different person, looked at Lu Yan with sharp eyes and said with a smile.

You really aren't stupid! Lu Yan was not surprised by Lu Yi's sudden change.

"Since you're not stupid, aren't you going to tell me your name. Lu Yan asked with a smile

"Name........... For years, everyone called me a fool, and I almost forgot my name."

My name is Lu Yi.....

Lu Yi..... Yes, quite a good name, Lu Yan thought the name was average, but he still praised it.

Have a seat..... Lu Yi pulled a stool over, put it next to Lu Yan and said.

Lu Yan was not hypocritical, pulled over the stool, and sat down.

While sitting down, Lu Yan swept the entire room with the corner of his eye.

The furnishings in the room were extremely simple, except for a worn-out wooden bed and a dining table, and nothing else. But there was a faint smell of medicine in the air.

Sure enough, there is an elixir, it seems that the guesses of those subordinates are not wrong, Lu Yan secretly thought in his heart, but he did not take the initiative to say it.

Since you already know that I am not a fool, then I will not hide it from you, in fact, I have always known about the existence of you as a person, and I have also paid attention to your news, but I have been in the back kitchen, so I have not seen you in person, Lu Yi said very calmly.

"Oh, you actually know me", this time it was Lu Yan's turn to be a little surprised.

"What's so strange about this, you are the son of Lu Tao on the first day of the Lu family, of course I know your name", Lu Yi said with some smugness.

"Oh, it seems that you are really not simple", this time Lu Yan felt that this Lu Yi was not simple.

"You're not simple, you can see that I'm not really stupid, no one has ever been able to see it after so many years, I can't imagine that you are the first", Lu Yi said sarcastically.

"Say, you don't care about your body at home, why do you suddenly care about me, a nobody, Lu Yi also pulled a stool and sat opposite Lu Yan and stared at Lu Yan's eyes very seriously and asked.

When the topic came, Lu Yan knew that Lu Yi would definitely ask like this, but he didn't think there was anything wrong.

"It's very simple, I overheard two subordinates discussing your strength yesterday, and suddenly you broke through from the third layer of refining to the fifth layer in a short period of time. You must know that under normal circumstances, it takes at least three months for a person with normal qualifications to break through a small level in the Body Refining Realm, unless it is a very high-level elixir, it is possible to break through in a very short period of time, then, not to mention that you are still a fool. Lu Yan said unhurriedly.

"Oh!, just because of this, you judge that I'm not a fool, this is too arbitrary," Lu Yi's expression was obviously a little incredulous.

"Yes, that's not enough for me to determine if you're really stupid or fake, but I went to the back kitchen to look for you, and I saw those people say that you haven't been to the back kitchen for a few days, you know, you used to go there every day, rain or shine, so I was a little suspicious of you at the time."

Lu Yan paused and continued, "When I came to you just now, I found that there were overgrown weeds around here, but the ground within ten meters of you and your house was flat and clean, without a trace of weeds, and those fences were neatly hunted. So I'm going to conclude that you're not stupid at all, because I don't believe a fool can do that with such care.

Bang Bang Bang -----

"Sure enough, you are worthy of Lu Tao's son, you are very powerful." There was a hint of appreciation in Lu Yi's words.

"Yes, I really haven't been stupid in the past three years", Lu Yi didn't hide it, and admitted it directly.
