The old Taoist priest finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
It’s okay to be a registered disciple!
As long as he can stay with Qin Fan, he doesn't care about his status.
Uh...this feels a bit weird.
Qin Fan took the initiative to speak: "I came to you this time, firstly, to test your cultivation, and secondly, to ask you to take me to Panlong Mountain."
Qin Fan never talks nonsense and goes straight to the point.
But this time he said nonsense, because the sentence of testing his cultivation was purely to maintain his positive image.
You can't say: I want you to take me to Panlong Mountain to test your cultivation!
Qin Shou suddenly burst into tears. Looking at Qin Fan with a grateful face, he said intermittently: "Originally, I thought that the master had forgotten me a long time ago. Unexpectedly, the master always remembered the disciple. The disciple was thinking about the previous thoughts...
So ashamed!"
Qin Fanxin said: I have indeed forgotten you.
Of course, he was just thinking about this in his mind and would definitely not say it out loud.
Qin Fan had no expression on his face and patted the old Taoist priest on the shoulder: "You don't need to blame yourself. It was my negligence. I should have come to see you earlier."
Qin Shou was even more moved. If he wasn't worried about Qin Fan being angry, this old Taoist who had no worries and had been wandering alone in the world for decades would really want to hold Qin Fan's thigh and cry.
"By the way, master, I was just about to report this matter to you!"
"When I went out yesterday, I suddenly heard someone talking about Panlong Mountain. They said that someone went into the mountain to dig medicine and encountered a monster!"
"I guess someone probably saw that evil beast!"
When talking about business, Qin Shou looked serious.
A flash of light flashed in Qin Fan's eyes: "Oh, so this matter has been spread. It seems that many people will go to Panlong Mountain!"
"Then this trip to Panlong Mountain will definitely not be too lonely."
"You pack up and we'll set off immediately."
"yes!"
Panlong Mountain is located in the northwest border of Handong and belongs to Linhe City.
Although Qin Shou has not been there for many years, the old Taoist has a deep memory of the location of Panlong Mountain.
In the evening, an old Taoist led a young man in black and appeared in the town closest to Panlong Mountain.
This small town is called Panlong Town, and cars can only reach here.
When Qin Fan and his two men arrived at Panlong Town, the sun had already set.
"Master, let's stay one night in Panlong Town tonight and head into the mountains early tomorrow morning."
"good."
Although the darkness of night could not hinder Qin Fan's vision at all, he was not used to going into the mountains at night.
There is only one larger hotel in Panlong Town, Panlong Hotel.
I don’t know whether the person who named it is lazy, or whether he relies on the mountain to live on the mountain. Most of the things near Panlong Mountain are named after Panlong.
The vegetable market is called Panlong Vegetable Market, the square is called Panlong Plaza, Panlong Supermarket, and even the barber shop on the roadside is called Panlong Hair Design.
There are endless Panlong shoe stores, Panlong adult daily necessities, etc...
Panlong Hotel has a total of six floors. Qin Fan and the other two came to the front desk of the hotel.
The old Taoist priest immediately stepped forward and smiled at the fat woman eating melon seeds at the front desk: "Hello, I'll open two rooms."
"There's only one room left, five hundred a night, do you want it?" the fat woman said casually.
The old Taoist priest frowned and sneered: "Who are you kidding? Do you think this is a five-star hotel? A shabby rural hotel with only one room. I have seen many profiteers like you."
After saying that, he turned back to Qin Fan and smiled proudly, showing off his many years of experience in the world.
The fat woman smiled coldly: "Haha, I'm just a profiteer. What's wrong with you? You guys can't live in it anymore. Let me tell you, if it's a little later, the last room will be gone."
The old Taoist curled his lips disdainfully, returned to Qin Fan and whispered: "Master, don't pay attention to this kind of profiteer. Five hundred a night is almost as high as the price of a star hotel."
"We pretended to leave, and she immediately begged us to come back!"
Before the two of them could leave, two muscular men in black strode in.
"Get two rooms!"
The fat woman was eating melon seeds and said nonchalantly: "There is only one room left, and it costs one thousand yuan a night. I can't live here!"
The two men frowned: "Okay, a thousand is a thousand."
After dismissing the two men, the fat woman gave the old man a provocative look: "I'm sorry, this hotel is full, you go elsewhere!"
After she finished speaking, she muttered in a low voice: "Humph, what's going on in the past two days? So many outsiders came all of a sudden, and they were all weird, and they didn't look like good people at first glance..."
Qin Fan glanced at the old man: "What should we do now?"
The old Taoist looked embarrassed: "Master, I forgot that everyone was rushing to Panlong Mountain to do this. I thought she was just sitting on the ground and raising the price?"
"Are you poor?" Qin Fan looked at the old man suspiciously and frowned slightly.
Qin Shou's face turned red and he scratched his head in embarrassment: "I'm a little poor. I haven't been cheating for a long time... I've set up a stall, and the family can hardly open the pot."
Qin Fan rolled his eyes: "Then you can ask me for it. Where should we live now?"
The old man was even more embarrassed.
"Qin Fan!"
Suddenly, a clear, sweet, and surprising female voice sounded behind the two of them.
Wearing a goose-yellow dress, with long black hair hanging down on her shoulders, the youthful and beautiful Murong Ling'er was walking down the stairs following a middle-aged man in a gray suit.
Seeing Qin Fan, she suddenly quickened her pace, jumped down the stairs first, and jogged happily to Qin Fan.
The old Taoist's eyes flashed with surprise, and he admired Qin Fan even more.
"Although this little girl is not as good as the master's wife, she is still a stunning beauty, and in some ways she is even more outstanding than the master's wife."
"Master is really amazing!"
"Hey, no wonder the master didn't bring his wife with him this time. Could it be that the master already knew that this little girl would be waiting for him here!"
Immediately, the old Taoist fell in admiration for Qin Fan.
Murong Linger suppressed the excitement in her heart: "Qin Fan, why are you here?"
Qin Fan's eyes moved from the face of the expressionless middle-aged man on the stairs to the smiling Murong Ling'er, and said with a smile: "This is exactly what I want to ask you."
Murong Ling'er was about to answer when the middle-aged man quickly walked down the stairs and spoke first: "Ling'er, is this your classmate?"
Murong Ling'er swallowed back what she was about to say, turned around and shouted: "Uncle, let me introduce you!"
"This is Qin Fan, my classmate."
She looked at Qin Fan again: "Qin Fan, this is my uncle."
While he was talking, Lin Yuanhang had already walked over with his men. He stood beside Murong Ling'er, looking at Qin Fan quietly with his deep eyes.
"I heard Ling'er talk about you. I heard that you have a good relationship with Queen Jinxiu and the eldest lady of the Wang family?"
Lin Yuanhang asked with a smile, but Qin Fan felt a touch of hostility from him.
Qin Fan politely replied: "Uncle Lin misunderstood. I only have occasional interactions with them and are not familiar with them."
Hearing this, the smile on Lin Yuanhang's face faded a little, he nodded, looked at Murong Ling'er and said: "Ling'er, we still have things to do, we will talk to your classmates later."
"Ah, why don't I go?" Murong Ling'er asked tentatively.
Lin Yuanhang's face became solemn: "Then I will ask Xiaoguang to take you back immediately."
Murong Ling'er stuck out her lilac tongue and said to Qin Fan with some reluctance: "I'll go out with my uncle first, and I'll call you when I get back."
