Lei Jun's face flushed red with shame.
Originally, he was extremely ashamed that he didn't kill the evil spirit. Just now, he used the same words to mock Lin Fan in front of these people.
Now, although Lin Fan's words were not deliberately humiliating him, it was like a slap to his face.
The point was, he felt that this slap was on his own face.
His face alternated between red and white, and he was very embarrassed.
Lin Fan felt that it was not a good feeling to be surrounded by so many people, especially now. These disciples were all talking at once, begging him to teach them some methods and experiences of killing evil spirits. Some were even more direct, insisting on following him to kill evil spirits.
"Senior Brother Lin, please take me with you."
"Senior Brother Lin, take me with you for a day, even half a day is fine."
"Senior Brother Lin, take me with you. You eat meat, and I drink soup."
"Senior Brother Lin, I don't want anything. I just want to follow you, and all the points I get will belong to you.
I just want to learn the skills of exorcising evil spirits from you. "
The female disciple who previously asked Lei Jun to take her with him repeated her words verbatim to Lin Fan.
Lin Fan shook his head and said coldly, "Sorry, I don't like to act with people."
As he spoke, he walked out, ready to start today's operation.
But at this time, how could he escape? A group of seven or eight disciples surrounded him. No matter where he went, they stuck close to him like dog skin plaster. Their perseverance made Lin Fan helpless.
Being pestered by them, Lin Fan couldn't use force. When he walked to the gate with great difficulty, he saw that they were still following him to the end. He couldn't help but have a headache. Seeing that he couldn't get rid of them, he turned back and said angrily, "I'm not doing the mission today. Go back and sleep."
He turned back and wanted to get rid of them, but unexpectedly, the group of followers still refused to let him go. They all turned back and wanted to go back with him. It looked like they wanted to go back to the dormitory with him.
Seeing this, Lin Fan felt his scalp go numb. Just as he was feeling helpless, he suddenly heard a voice. "Hey, do any of you know Lin Fan?"
Hearing this, everyone was startled. Then, one after another, they turned their heads to look. They saw that the one who spoke was a man dressed in short clothes. He was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. Although he wasn't tall, his figure was strong and straight. He looked imposing and full of energy. His eyes were shining brightly, and he was imposing without being angry.
When the group of disciples saw this person, they immediately quieted down. Although they couldn't see through this man's cultivation, they couldn't help but be intimidated by his imposing manner. Especially his eyes, which were shining brightly. He was clearly an internal training expert.
This was because only after going through the first level of internal training, "Refining Essence", could one's eyes have this kind of "radiant" divine power.
Lin Fan could naturally sense the other party's strength, but without knowing the other party's identity and background, he didn't dare to rashly admit that he was Lin Fan.
At this time, a disciple asked for him, "Why are you looking for Lin Fan?"
This group of disciples seemed to be incompetent, but they were not stupid. In the face of a strange master, they were all on guard. Without knowing why the other party was looking for Lin Fan, they would not identify Lin Fan to him.
The man looked serious and said, "Well, I'm here to thank him."
"Thank him?" A disciple said, "What are you thanking him for?"
"My name is Sun Guangwu. I'm here to thank him for saving my family." The man was magnanimous. After reporting his name, he directly explained his purpose. "Please help me call him."
"Sun, Sun Guangwu, ah, so he is Sun Guangwu …" A disciple whispered in surprise. "He is the martial arts genius of our Qingyang County."
Hearing this name, several disciples in front of Lin Fan stepped aside and pointed to Lin Fan.
"He is Lin Fan."
Sun Guangwu looked at Lin Fan and his attitude became respectful. He bowed to him and said, "I'm Sun Guangwu. I'm here to thank Lin Shaoxia for saving my family …"
When Lin Fan heard him call himself Sun Guangwu, he completely understood. He thought that although Sun Guangwu was a rough man, he knew how to repay kindness and had a good character. It was not in vain that he saved his family. He waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. Don't mention it."
"Lin Shaoxia, I, Sun Guangwu, will remember such a great kindness. Although I can't express my gratitude, I still want to invite Lin Shaoxia to have a cup of tea. I wonder if Lin Shaoxia is free?"
Lin Fan said without hesitation, "Yes, of course I'm free. Let's do it now. I'm a little thirsty."
In front of so many people, Sun Guangwu thought that Lin Fan would refuse or be polite. He did not expect Lin Fan to agree so directly.
However, he really liked this kind of person. He hated those who were shy and pretended to be polite. He smiled and waved to the coachman on a carriage not far away. When the carriage approached, he made a gesture of invitation to Lin Fan. "Lin Shaoxia, please."
Lin Fan did not stand on ceremony and directly got on the carriage.
After Sun Guangwu also got on the carriage, the coachman shouted and drove the horse forward.
The carriage soon drove away.
Watching the carriage go away, a group of disciples was a little dumbfounded. One of them said, "Good guy, I didn't expect Lin Fan to be so rude."
Another disciple said, "Can't you see that? He deliberately avoided us."
"I don't think so. If it were me, I wouldn't stand on ceremony either. Sun Guangwu is a martial arts genius in Qingyang County. He has traveled extensively and his kung fu is unpredictable. Even the government wants to win him over. It's a blessing to be able to get on his good side."
"It seems that Lin Fan is really going to be rich!"
…
In the carriage.
Lin Fan said, "Brother Sun, I'm sorry. I was too abrupt."
"Lin Shaoxia, to be honest, I like straightforward people like you," Sun Guangwu said.
Lin Fan said, "In fact, I was trying to avoid those disciples. I have to investigate and kill the evil spirit today.
So, can we not drink tea for too long? "
"Uh." Sun Guangwu was stunned. "You have a task. Of course, Lin Shaoxia can leave whenever he wants."
"Calling me Young Hero sounds awkward. Call me Lin Fan," Lin Fan said.
"Hey," Sun Guangwu said, "Brother Lin Fan, I see that your cultivation has reached the outer forging level, right?"
"Brother Sun has good eyesight," Lin Fan said, "I'm just at the beginning of the phloem stage."
"Well, it's very good to have this cultivation at this age. Especially when you can kill the evil spirit without hurting my brother's life. Your means are really brilliant."
"Not at all," Lin Fan waved his hand and smiled. "By the way, I punched Brother Sun yesterday. Is he okay?"
"No problem," Sun Guangwu waved his hand and smiled with relief. "He'll be fine after taking some medicine."
"That's good." Lin Fan was also quite relieved.
"I heard that the evil spirit was Fu Dalong. He wanted to take revenge on me and my family. Fortunately, Brother Lin Fan acted in time … Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
Lin Fan waved his hand and smiled indifferently.
"That was originally the task of our gang and the responsibility of martial artists."
Sun Guangwu said, "By the way, you must have found out that it was Fu Dalong, so you went to my house to inspect, right?"
"Yes," Lin Fan said, "In fact, I found out about Fu Dalong through the Hu family massacre case. Then, I heard that you have a grudge against him, so I went to your house to investigate …"
"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect that Brother Lin Fan is not only talented in martial arts, but also has such a brain," Sun Guangwu praised sincerely. Then, he said, "By the way, someone like you can work in the Patrol Office. Why don't I recommend you? I still have some connections in the county government."
Lin Fan said, "I appreciate Brother Sun's kindness, but I'm not strong enough. If I go to the Patrol Office at this time, it will undoubtedly spoil things through excessive enthusiasm."
Being a bailiff in the Patrol Office was a lucrative job. The level of martial arts was not high, and one only needed to practice martial arts. It mainly depended on one's ability to investigate cases and connections. With Sun Guangwu's recommendation, Lin Fan could enter the Patrol Office.
But seeing that he was so cautious, Sun Guangwu did not try to persuade him anymore. He just nodded and said, "Well, Lin Fan, you're right. The world is dangerous. It's better to be careful and keep a low profile.
However, Lin Fan, you've done so much for my Sun family. You have to give me a chance to repay you. Tell me what you need. As long as it's within my power, I won't hesitate. "
