Chapter 8 Visit of the Old Man
(First update, please collect!)
Qihan Island is only 3,000 miles away from the East China Sea Plain. For monks, it can be reached in about an hour's flight.
Zhang Yan's six people left Qihan Island and entered a city called Broken Star in the East China Sea Plain an hour later.
Maybe it is a coincidence that Broken Star City is located in the southwest of the East China Sea Plain, which belongs to a city belonging to Dongfumen. It faces the East China Sea and connects the hilly plains. It is a fortress that must pass through the sea and is naturally prosperous.
However, recently, the prosperous Broken Star City has flooded into many strangers, as if they had a purpose. All kinds of monks came one after another, making the Broken Star City suddenly permeate a trace of murderous atmosphere.
Pedestrians on the street have become rare, but monks in a hurry can be seen walking through the streets everywhere.
As soon as Zhang Yan's six people entered the Broken Star City, they sensed a trace of tension surging in the air and were extremely suspicious.
What happened?
As the more time he entered the city, Zhang Yan was surprised to find that there seemed to be some monks on the street, but those merchants who had to do business disappeared one by one...
Two dusty monks came from the distance of the street.
"Oh, did that boy really appear? It's been fucking gone for decades. Why did you come to the East China Sea?
"Shh, be quiet, didn't you see the monks trekking around for that boy? This matter must be true. Let's still search honestly. If the opportunity is delayed, you and I can't afford it.
"Oh, let me say, that Buddha magic treasure..."
"Shut up and go!"
......
The conversation between the two fell into Zhang Yan's ears, and his look suddenly became extremely ugly.
It turns out that I have been found...
Zhang Yan's nerve suddenly tightened and ordered Ma Chong and others, "Let's find a place to stay quickly. We can't stay on the street."
Xue's sister and brother and Ma Chong came to the ancient continent for the first time. They were very fresh when they saw everything. They were overwhelmed. Suddenly, they heard Zhang Yan's serious voice and couldn't help but be stunned.
"Your Excellency, what do you notice?" The horse rushed around and said in a low voice.
"Let's go, there are enemies around."
Zhang Yan said casually and immediately walked into the distance.
Ma Chong and others swept away the monks around, saying, no way, these guys are all enemies?
Dozens of big inns in Broken Star City have been full of guests. Zhang Yan's six people struggled to find a small inn in an alley. They booked only three rooms left, one room for Zhang Yan and Bai Luo, one room for Ma Chong and Xue Lou, and one room for Liu Nuoxuan and Xue Rou.
After entering the room, Zhang Yan told everyone not to step out of the inn, and then frowned and walked back to the room.
As soon as he entered the room, Bai Luo asked, "Is it still for your treasure?"
Zhang Yan nodded and said hatefully, "These people are haunted and disgusting!"
Bai Luo smiled and said, "Who let you have so many good babies?"
Zhang Yan stared at him and then smiled bitterly, "This is really innocent."
Bai Luo said righteously, "Now it seems that the whole ancient continent knows that you have appeared in the East China Sea. Those powerful monks may have come. What are you going to do?"
Zhang Yan thought for a moment and said his plan, "I planned to go to Dongfumen to kill Meng Dongye first, and then go back to Hanlou City to look for my second uncle and second aunt, but now..."
Bai Luo said, "Do you want to leave the East China Sea early now?"
Zhang Yan shook his head and said, "If you leave like this, I won't be reconciled."
Bai Luo was about to say something when Zhang Yan suddenly waved his hand and stopped, and a clear voice came from outside the room: "Brother Zhang Shi, my old friend is visiting."
Why is this sound so familiar...
Zhang Yan's mind flashed, and a trace of joy appeared on his face. He opened the door in Bai Luo's stunned eyes and welcomed a clear and handsome young man.
This young man in brocade, with a smile on the corners of his mouth, gives people a sense of affinity like a spring breeze, which is Lan Rongruo!
If Lanrong is from Zhenlongfang, when he was in Qianjing City, Zhang Yan learned from him that Zengfuzi was a deacon and elder of Zhenlongfang, and he was a strong figure. Even in the mouth of Lan Rongruo, he, a Zengfuzi student, became a disciple of Zhenlongfang confusedly. ( Note 1)
As for Lan Rong's call Zhang Yan as Zhang Shi, it is because Zhang Yan was on guard when he first set foot on Zhenlongfang to exchange spiritual stones and reported a false name. Only Lan Rongruo knew about this matter, so Zhang Yan was aware of it when Lan Rongruo shouted the word "Zhang Shi".
Lanrong Ruo exchanged a greeting with Bai Luo under Zhang Yan's introduction, then turned his head and looked at Zhang Yan carefully, smiled and sighed, "You are too bold to appear in the city with your true face. Aren't you afraid of being recognized?"
Zhang Yan touched his nose and said with a wry smile, "I just learned about this."
Lan Rong was stunned and then asked, "Where have you been in the past few decades? Why did it suddenly disappear in Qianjing City?
Zhang Yan shook his head, but did not intend to tell Lan Rongruo about the strange experience of the Wanjian world. He just said, "You probably know that in Qianjing City, I was chased by major forces, and finally had to leave Middle-earth in panic and went all the way east to hide in the East China Sea."
Lan Rongruo thought for a moment and said, "Yes, it was really dangerous for the four major forces in Central China to pursue you together with the local family of Qianjing City on that day."
Zhang Yan suddenly said, "Why did you appear here?"
Lan Rongruo smiled and said, "Our Zhenlongfang is all over the ancient continent, and this broken star city also has our Zhenlongfang sub-numbered."
Zhang Yan shook his head and said, "No, you probably heard that I'm here, that's why you came to the East China Sea."
In fact, until now, he doesn't know what position Lan Rongruo is in Zhenlongfang, but this does not prevent him from trusting Lan Rongruo, or he will not only hear Lan Rongruo's voice and welcome him into the house.
Lan Rongruo laughed and said, "Since you know, why do you still ask me?"
Zhang Yan said, "I'm asking you if you're here to see me or something else."
Lan Rongruo said naturally, "If your friend is in trouble, Lan should help him. This time he came not only to see you, but also to bring you back to the headquarters, who has long been identified as the deacon elder of Zhenlongfang."
Zhang Yan was stunned and said, "Headquarters? Where are you going?"
Lan Rongruo sighed and said, "Now there is no Zengfuzi in Zhenlongfang, and you, the deacon elder, are not here. Many people are ready to move. If you want to go to the headquarters, it is also to deter those young people who want to seize power."
Zhang Yan pondered for a moment and asked, "Whose attention is this?"
Lan Rongruo smiled and said, "Of course it's me. Who let me be your friend and can't bear to see what originally belonged to you taken away by others?"
Zhang Yan said disdainfully, "I don't care about the rights of Zhenlongfang."
Lan Rongruo laughed and said, "I know, but these things were left to you by Zeng Fuzi. Don't you worry about being taken by others?"
After half a silence, Zhang Yan smiled bitterly and said, "Even if I want to go, I am powerless."
Lan Rongruo is very understanding and said, "No matter how serious the situation in the East China Sea is, it is still very simple to send you back from the East China Sea to Middle-earth."
Zhang Yan refused, "No, I can't leave now. I have one more thing to do."
Lan Rongruo said in astonishment, "What's the matter?"
Zhang Yan said lightly, "Killing people."
=============================================
"You leave the East China Sea with Brother Lan first, and I will look for you later."
Zhang Yan looked at Ma Chong and others and said solemnly.
Last night, after thinking repeatedly, he finally decided to send Ma Chong and others out of this place of right and wrong. With the help of Lan Rongruo, there should be no problem for Ma Chong and others to leave.
"Miss Liu, after returning to Hanlou City, you should help find a place to live first. Be careful all the way." Zhang Yan turned his head and said to Liu Nuoxuan.
After all, Ma Chong and Xue's sister and brother are from the world of thousands of swords and do not know much about the ancient continent. Zhang Yan can rest assured that Liu Nuoxuan, a resourceful woman, is taken care of.
"All right, all right. With me, they won't be in danger." Lan Rongruo looked at Zhang Yan, who looked like a long-tongued woman, and said that he was very invisible.
Zhang Yan had told everyone about this decision last night, so at the time of parting, there was nothing that was stunned or sad.
When they left, they looked very quiet, which made Zhang Yan very relieved.
He didn't know that after he left last night, Bai Luo struggled to smooth out everyone's confused emotions and admitted that Zhang Yan would look for himself and others within half a year, which gave them a hope to look forward to.
After Ma Chong and others left this time, there was only Bu Ruo left beside Zhang Yan.
The reason for doing this is probably because the situation in the East China Sea is too dangerous. Zhang Yansheng may be threatened by those despicable monks with Ma Chong and others, so he has to do so.
Of course, if Lanrong hadn't suddenly appeared like timely rain, Zhang Yan probably wouldn't have done this so smoothly.
Lan Rong promised Zhang Yan to escort Ma Chong and others away, but he also had a request that Zhang Yan must follow him to the Zhenlongfang headquarters after solving this matter.
Zhang Yan is actually very strange. This guy seems to be very sure that he will not die in the waves of the East China Sea.
Of course, if Lan Rong can do this, it will make Zhang Yan very happy. It is probably a blessing in life to have such an understanding friend.
"Well, my lord, are we going to stay in this shabby house for a day?" Bu Ruo wandered in the room like a ghost and was bored.
Zhang Yan shook his head and said, "Of course not. How about we kill people after I refine the three Yuan babies?"
"Murder?"
Bu Ruo's enchanting red eyes became bright and clucked, "Well, this is indeed a very wonderful idea. My lord, who shall we kill?
Zhang Yan slowly closed his eyes and said, "Dongfumen, Meng Dongye."
