City God Temple.
After experiencing the incident in Black Wind Village, everyone in the City God Temple is now full of joy.
Inside the mountain-surrounding wall, which is over ten feet high, stands a majestic and imposing mansion of the top scholar.
And this is the Lu family manor built by Lu Fan.
At the current Lu family manor, Lu Fan has taken in nearly two hundred people.
Among them is a guard team of more than 100 people formed by Wang Dayong, who is responsible for the security of Lu's Manor.
The other hundred or so people were responsible for farming and the daily life of Lu Fan and his sister.
In this age of famine and cannibalism.
Lu Fan's manor is in stark contrast to the harsh environment outside where people are frozen to death on the road.
Just see.
Outside the manor, there are more than a hundred acres of fertile land that Lu Fan specially asked the laborers to cultivate.
These fertile fields are planted with rice, grains, vegetables, fruits, etc.
In the fertile fields, there was only a huge bald chicken, leading a group of clucking chickens, walking and clucking slowly there.
besides.
In Lu Fan's secret underground cave of the City God Temple, there are extremely precious ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, snow lotus and other valuable things.
The reason why Lu Fan wanted to plant those precious things in the cave was of course for safety reasons.
After all, who would reveal their true identity for no reason?
"Coo, choo!"
At this moment, a beautiful figure with two ponytails, wearing a red jacket and carrying a small cloth bag on her back ran out of the courtyard.
The group of chicks she was chasing flew around in all directions, cackled.
Looking closely, this is Lu Fan's sister, Lu Linger.
The little girl is almost eleven years old, with red lips and white teeth.
On the rosy little face, there is a pair of beautiful big eyes that are extremely smart.
After Lu Linger chased the chicken for a while, a figure came in front of the little girl.
"Hey, little girl, it's almost dark, why hasn't your brother come back yet?"
The person who spoke was Dong Wu, also known as Hero Dong, who was carrying a tiger-head knife on his shoulder.
He had a full beard and still looked unkempt.
But his overall complexion and spirit are much better than before.
Lu Linger saw Dong Wu and didn't say anything.
He found a stone and sat down, then took out a chicken leg from the cloth bag and started eating it.
"Little girl, I'm talking to you. Aren't you worried about your brother at all?" Dong Wu came over and squatted in front of Lu Linger.
"Don't worry." Lu Linger shook her head.
"Why?" Dong Wu asked.
"Because my brother will definitely do what he promised me! He said he would come back today, and he will definitely come back." Lu Linger said with her little face raised.
"Hey? You little girl, you seem to trust that kid Lu quite a bit, huh?"
Dong Wu muttered.
Then he continued, "Little girl, can you tell me what your brother used to do? Why did he improve so quickly? Also, I heard you were very poor before? How come you have everything now?"
Dong Wu has always been curious about Lu Fan.
Because in his opinion, in this era of famine and starvation, what Lu Fan had was simply incredible.
Who knows.
As soon as he asked, Lu Linger suddenly pouted and said, "I won't tell you!"
"Why?" Dong Wu asked.
"Because my brother said that in this world, you can only trust yourself and no one else!"
Dong Wu was speechless when he heard that.
I cursed in my heart: They really are a pair of siblings! Damn, each one is more petty than the other.
"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to go play!"
The little girl stood up, jumped up and down, and prepared to go play by herself.
"Wait, little guy!"
Dong Wu wanted to pull Lu Linger aside and ask her some more questions about Lu Fan.
Who knows.
Just as he reached out to grab Lu Linger, an indescribable strange force suddenly emanated from Lu Linger's body. Before Dong Wu realized what was happening, he was immediately hit by the airflow.
Bang!
Hero Dong was so shocked by the mysterious power of Lu Linger that he fell to the ground.
"What's wrong with you?"
Lu Linger, who was only eleven years old, turned her head and looked at Dong Wu, who was sitting on the ground, with a curious look on her face and asked.
Dong Wu was almost crying.
Damn, what happened just now?
How could a great hero who had mastered the art of martial arts for six days be so frightened that he fell to the ground by a young girl?
Isn't this too weird?
"I...I'm fine!"
Dong Wu said as he stood up from the ground while rubbing his aching butt.
Lu Linger blinked her beautiful big eyes, glanced at Dong Wu curiously, and said, "Since you're fine, I'll go play by myself!"
After saying that, the little girl jumped away.
Looking at Lu Linger's small figure, Dong Wu's face twisted into a knot.
"No, no! This is fucking wrong! How could I, a sixth-grade acquired martial artist, be so stunned by a little girl?"
"illusion!"
"right!"
"This must be a fucking illusion!"
Dong Wu shook his head, rubbed his burning butt and muttered to himself.
When it was almost dark.
Lu Fan finally came back.
When he came back with the magic gourd on his back, Wang Dayong and the members of the guard team saw him.
Now Wang Dayong and those laborers have long regarded Lu Fan as their savior.
When he saw Lu Fan, he called him "young master" all the time.
Lu Fan greeted them with a smile on his face.
As soon as they entered the Lu family manor, Lu Linger with twin ponytails ran out happily.
"elder brother!"
Seeing Lu Fan, the little girl threw herself into Lu Fan's arms.
After seeing his sister, Lu Fan smiled and pinched her rosy little face: "Ling'er, are you being good at home?"
"I listen to my brother, I'm a good boy!"
"Be good! Here, this is the gourd I bought for you, and some delicious food!"
As he spoke, Lu Fan handed the things he bought from the magic gourd to Lu Linger.
"Brother, you are so nice!"
Lu Linger was happily sitting there with a bunch of food that Lu Fan had bought.
Seeing his sister so happy, Lu Fan also smiled.
Lu Fan now has no shortage of money and food.
According to what is currently stored in his magic gourd, even if he and his sister do nothing in their lives, it is enough for them to live happily for the rest of their lives.
But as the saying goes, comfort can make people lose their vigilance!
Lu Fan understands this better than anyone else!
Especially after going to the underground black market in Qingyang Town this time, Lu Fan understood more clearly that there are always people better than you!
For example, the Treasure Pavilion...
For example, the Broken Blade Gate...
For example, the Yan family...
He can't afford to offend any of these forces now!
If I really offend him by mistake in the future, I might end up in a fatal disaster!
The only thing Lu Fan could do to protect his sister and safeguard his family business was to make himself stronger.
"Yes! Get stronger!"
"I have to practice quickly!"
