Chapter 637: Fledgling
Zhou Fan walked on the street of the post station, and on the street of the post station, there were some merchants who completed the transaction of goods here.
After about turning around, he bought some dry food and other items on the side of the street for the next few days, and walked towards an inn.
It was noon, and he wasn't going to rest at the post until tomorrow morning.
After he was ready to go to the inn and eat a good meal of wine, he continued on his way.
As soon as Zhou Fan entered the inn, the shopkeeper at the door said apologetically: "This guest officer, I'm really sorry, there are no spare tables in this store." ”
Zhou Fan glanced at it and found that it was really full, this was the time to eat, it was not a strange thing to have no seats, he nodded slightly and wanted to turn around and leave to change to another room, at this time, a man's voice came from the left of the main door.
"This brother, we still have a position here, if you don't dislike it, you can come over and make do with it. ”
Zhou Fan turned his head to look, only to find that three seventeen or eighteen-year-old young men were sitting on a square wooden table on the left side of the door.
It was a man in a green shirt who spoke, and he was looking at Zhou Fan with a smile.
"Guest officer, it's hard to find a place for this meal, please come inside. When the shopkeeper saw that someone didn't mind sharing a table to eat, he became active and greeted Zhou Fan with a smile on his face.
Zhou Fan hesitated, but walked over and sat down, he smiled and said, "Thank you, three brothers." ”
"Whereever, when you're out and about, just helping each other, it's nothing. It was still the man in the green shirt who spoke, and he sat opposite Zhou Fan.
The two people on the left and right also nodded to Zhou Fan, showing a hint of a smile.
The food of the three did not come up, Zhou Fan asked the shopkeeper and ordered some wine and dishes that were not expensive and easy to eat, and after the shopkeeper left, Zhou Fan talked to the three young men.
The man in the green shirt who opened his mouth to call Zhou Fan first was named Cao Yanfang, and the other two were named Tan Yunfei and Guan Yingfeng.
After talking for a while, after getting acquainted, Cao Yanfang smiled and said, "Brother Zhou, are you traveling alone?"
Zhou Fan nodded and said: "Before, I followed a caravan to the Luoxiang Post Station, and after the post station was the Luoxiang Main Ruler Road, this road is not dangerous, so I am ready to go to Gaoxiang County alone." ”
In this world, if you say that a person travels alone, it is too eye-catching, so Zhou Fan is half-true and half-false.
He also saw that Cao Yanfang and the three of them were wearing talisman bags, Cao Yanfang and Tan Yunfei were wearing long swords, and there was a spear on the table, which should be Guan Yingfeng.
Cao Yanfang and the three of them are likely to be martial artists, and the three of them are so young that they also appeared at the Luoxiang Station, which made Zhou Fan have a faint guess in his heart.
"I don't know what Brother Zhou is doing when he goes out of Gaoxiang County?" Guan Yingfeng couldn't help but ask.
"Facing the wind, don't talk nonsense!" Cao Yanfang said with a somewhat serious face.
When you go out, especially among those who are not familiar with martial arts, it is most taboo to explore the purpose of others, which can easily cause misunderstandings.
"I was presumptuous. Guan Yingfeng hurriedly apologized.
"It's no secret. Zhou Fan shook his head and smiled: "This trip I went to Gaoxiang County to participate in the upcoming college exam. ”
Hearing the big exam of the academy, Cao Yanfang and the three of them couldn't help but show joy, Cao Yanfang smiled and said: "That's really fate, the three of us also went to take the academy's exam to prepare for entering the academy." ”
Cao Yanfang just saw that Zhou Fan was so young, with a huge knife on his back and a long knife tied around his waist, so he had such a guess, so he invited Zhou Fan over.
"Maybe I'll be classmates in the future. Guan Yingfeng laughed.
Tan Yunfei, who was a little silent, did not speak, and also showed a smile on his face.
Cao Yanfang said again: "It's rare to meet, Brother Zhou is on the road alone, I'm afraid it's not safe, or the three of us go together, and we can be regarded as a companion, what do you think?"
Before Zhou Fan could answer, Cao Yanfang's meal for the three of them was served.
"Come on, come on, let's talk while eating. Cao Yanfang greeted Zhou Fan.
Zhou Fan was not too polite, and the three of them with Cao Yan moved chopsticks to drink and eat.
After drinking a few glasses, Zhou Fancai asked, "I wonder when Brother Cao are going to leave?"
Zhou Fan asked like this, and he also had the idea of going on a journey with Cao Yanfang and the three of them, so that maybe he could learn some specific details of the academy examination from Cao Yanfang and the three of them.
"We are going to leave after eating, after all, if we arrive in Gaoxiang County one day early, then we can prepare for the exam for one more day. Cao Yanfang said the plan of the three of them.
Zhou Fan said with a smile: "That's exactly what I plan, so I'll ask the three of you to take care of it on the way." ”
"You're welcome, Brother Zhou and we have met once, if you encounter any danger on the road, Brother Zhou is invincible, just hide behind my back, along the way I haven't encountered a monster that can support three rounds under my spear. Guan Yingfeng drank a few more glasses, and his face turned a little red.
I'm just a kind word, why are you so serious...... Zhou Fan's face was stunned for a moment, and he quickly smiled: "Then please Brother Guan." ”
"Facing the wind, what are you talking nonsense?" Tan Yunfei said with a displeased face.
Cao Yanfang was a little embarrassed and said, "Brother Zhou, he drank too much, I'm sorry." ”
Guan Yingfeng was scolded by Tan Yunfei, he sobered up a little and didn't dare to talk nonsense.
After three rounds of drinking, Zhou Fan Academy didn't hear about the big exam, but learned about the origin of Cao Yanfang and the others.
Cao Yanfang and the three of them were all warriors from different places in Luoshui Township.
Why do people from three different places get together?
Because the three of them are not ordinary martial artists, Cao Yanfang and Tan Yunfei were born in a family in Luoshui Township.
There are many families who mainly live in Gaoxiang County, but there are also a small number of families who live in various townships for various reasons.
This is the case for the Cao family and the Tan family, and Guan Yingfeng is from a big businessman.
Cao Tanguan's three families have business dealings, and the three of them have known each other since childhood, so they went to the exam together.
Cao Yanfang's strength of the three of them has reached the speed section, with such strength, as long as they don't go to some dangerous places, even if they encounter some powerful monsters, they can escape with the speed section.
This is also the reason why the three of them dared to go to Gaoxiang County together without bringing their family warriors.
But I still haven't had enough experience, so I didn't say anything, and the three of you drank a few glasses of wine like pouring beans...... Zhou Fan smiled and drank a glass of wine with the three fledgling rookies, thinking to himself.
After being full of wine and food, Guan Yingfeng called the shopkeeper to settle the bill, and Zhou Fan didn't need to take advantage of it when he first met, so he also insisted on paying part of the money.
Guan Yingfeng showed a trace of displeasure on his face, but Cao Yanfang glanced at him, and Guan Yingfeng didn't say anything.
Zhou Fan saw these things in his eyes, and he smiled slightly as if he didn't see it.
Among the three of them, Cao Yanfang is good at talking, Tan Yunfei is silent, Guan Yingfeng doesn't know the world, he can't hold anything in his heart, he likes to speak out, he is probably spoiled at home, but he is not a bad person.
