Chapter 31 I'm Just an Ordinary Person
Guo Fan returned to his courtyard and looked up. He saw a pair of familiar long and beautiful legs.
Huo Bai was still unaware and stared blankly at the moon in the sky. She seemed to have thought of something and frowned.
She did not even wear shoes or socks. Her slender and fair feet were exposed. They swayed left and right, and the silver rings on her ankles made a slight sound of collision.
Guo Fan did not make a sound. This time, he did it on purpose.
With his current cultivation, Huo Bai was no longer a match for him.
Naturally, he wouldn't be discovered.
Guo Fan did not intend to say or do more things. A few dozen pages of the illustrated handbook was enough for him to have a headache. Was he going to cause more trouble for himself?
However, just as he was about to leave, his footsteps paused. He noticed that the progress on Huo Bai's head had increased by a notch.
Guo Fan was stunned. This... When did this happen?
Was it because he promised the Jixin Wine, or was it because of some other reason?
Guo Fan thought that he couldn't just go up and ask. Anyway... it was a good thing.
But after he hesitated, Huo Bai discovered him instead. She quickly tidied up her skirt and found that her feet were still bare. No matter how she pulled, she could not wrap them up and could only tie them together as if nothing had happened. He hugged his knees and pretended to be calm. “You, you, you, why are you here?”
... “”
Guo Fan had a subtle look in his eyes. This was not calm at all, okay? It was troublesome to pretend a little bit more.
He landed on the roof in a blink of an eye and sat beside Huo Bai, whose ears were red. He said, “I sent Yaling to sleep and just came back.”
His words were natural and the words that Huo Bai wanted to say, “As a teacher, why did you enter the young lady's room of the Gu family?” were swallowed back and became: ” Oh.”
Guo Fan looked at the bright moon in the sky. For a moment, all kinds of emotions that he had not recovered from after transmigrating surged into his heart. He felt a little empty and melancholy.
He did not miss home. Although he had family and friends, to be honest, his relationship with his parents had always been neither hot nor cold, and there was only a kind of ordinary relationship between friends.
He had been living in school since junior high, and even after university, he had very little contact with his parents.
No matter where he was, he was a person who did not have a strong sense of existence. However, in this unfamiliar and familiar world, he found his own place.
Or rather... his own place.
Guo Fan turned his head to look at Huo Bai and asked, “Do you miss home?”
Huo Bai was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and said softly, “Yes, I do. Sometimes when I have nothing else to do, I would think about the harvest this year, okay? Whether parents are affected or not, they are all ordinary people. They are not as strong as me. When they are older, it is inevitable that they will feel sad. ”
Guo Fan asked curiously, “The salary given by Frost River Manor should be enough to support them. Why...”
Huo Bai looked a little sad. She shook her head and said, “They do not want it.”
She hugged her knees and smiled at Guo Fan. “Because I practice martial arts and came out to show myself, they don't recognize me anymore. I abandoned my surname and called myself Huo Bai. Later, they gave birth to a younger brother. I went to see him the year before. He studied very seriously in the private school. He will definitely be able to pass the exams in the future. ”
Guo Fan was silent for a while and smiled.” That's good. I think your parents should be very pleased. ”
In the ecosystem of cultivators, the lives of the mortals in Middle Continent were not very different from the lives of the ancient people that Guo Fan knew.
He had no intention of criticizing them. He only thought that if he could one day, he would be able to change these things.
Huo Bai nodded and also smiled, “Yes, they are very satisfied with younger brother. Although I can't do anything to help them, I am also happy that they can live a better life.”
She looked at Guo Fan with an indescribable look in her eyes. “What about you? You seem to never mention anything related to yourself.”
Guo Fan only shook his head. Suddenly, he had a desire to speak frankly in his heart. “I am just... an ordinary person.”
Huo Bai had an expression of who are you lying to?
Guo Fan laughed and pretended to tease her. “Really, I do not have the strength to even truss a chicken. I do not know any martial arts. Immortal cultivators are all lies. These people are all confused by me. What do you mean believe me? Am I strong or not? ”
... “” Huo Bai was speechless.
On the contrary, Guo Fan was very encouraged and smiled very proudly. “Really, really. I will tell you about this. I only told you because I thought you were a friend.”
Huo Bai looked at him suspiciously and thought that he should have said it because he wanted to tease her.
Guo Fan urged, “Do you believe it or not?”
Huo Bai nodded her head and said, “Okay, okay, okay. I already know. What you said is all right.”
Guo Fan's interest was immediately piqued. “Let me tell you. Where is my hometown? The land is round. It is not the flat surface of Upper Central Realm, but the sun and moon are the same. Humans are all ordinary people, but knowledge is power. There are a lot of interesting things... ”
Huo Bai listened quietly and felt that it was absurd. It must be a lie to find fun with her.
But it sounded interesting. Guo Fan's eyes looked like he was reminiscing or saying goodbye, so he did not interrupt her and listened to the lie for half the night.
She did not know that these few words were the few true words that Guo Fan had said after he transmigrated.
-
Guo Fan did not sleep the entire night and chatted with Huo Bai for a long time.
Luckily, he was now a true Immortal cultivator and no longer had to worry about staying up late and suddenly dying.
Huo Bai seemed to be a little tired and went to rest in her room for a quarter of an hour.
Guo Fan walked out of the courtyard and went to find Cheng Liuxian first.
He had been in contact with Mao Li for the past few days. He had already found out that the time to meet Cheng Liuxian was two days later. Naturally, he used the special communication method of the devil religion.
This further dispelled Mao Li's doubts.
Cheng Liuxian was studying magic in his guest room.
Swish!
Guo Fan instantly appeared in front of Cheng Liuxian, giving him a shock. After fixing his eyes, he quickly cupped his hands and bowed. “Senior!”
Because Guo Fan had previously said that he lived in the manor, Cheng Liuxian was able to find out his identity after asking around.
Naturally, he had already found out that Guo Fan was Gu Yaling's teacher, a powerful Immortal Cultivator. Moreover, he was not clear about the relationship between him and the young lady of Wide Ocean Sect, Su Feng. Thus, his attitude was naturally respectful and respectful.
Guo Fan raised his hand and the Spiritual Energy produced a force that lifted Cheng Liuxian up.
He said faintly, “In these three days, have you thought about why the Wide Ocean Sect forced you to come here and propose marriage again?”
Cheng Liuxian became nervous and said with fear and trepidation, “This... I really don't know.”
Nonsense, if you could know this, you would be the main character.
Guo Fan sighed and said,” It's the devil religion. No matter if it's you or the Wide Ocean Sect, they will use you as a tool. Do you understand? ”
Cheng Liuxian was confused and panicked as he said, “Devil religion... tool?”
Guo Fan nodded and said, “That's right. Do the tools people know about it? The kind that was thrown away after one use. In a few days, the people of the Devil Cult will come looking for you. They will tempt you to join their organization and give you everything you want. Teaching you a cultivation technique... but you don't know, that cultivation technique is actually a kind of Mother and Child Gu. And you are the Mother and Child Gu.”
He pointed at Cheng Liuxian and looked at the young man's frightened eyes. He imitated the old devil dragon's tone and said, “When the time comes, you can only listen to them and not resist. In the end, when your value is exhausted, they will abandon you. ”
Cheng Liuxian said with a trembling voice, “Then, what should we do?”
Guo Fan crossed his hands behind his back and said with a deep look, “Power, you need power.”
