Chapter 377: Looking Back Twenty Years, the Old Man in the Vicissitudes of Life (Seventh Update, Ask for Recommendation Votes!)
"Is it ......?"
Seeing that Baili Xi'er, who had become a brutal surname under the arrogance of the master of the Fog Hidden Island, suddenly became reasonable and sentimental, an ominous premonition suddenly appeared in Uncle Camel's heart, and the more he thought about it, the more panicked he became, and hurriedly asked:
"Miss, what's so good about that kid? Don't do anything stupid!"
"No, what did Uncle Camel say?"
Baili Xi'er's face was dyed with a layer of red, and she stomped her feet coquettishly.
"It's good if it's not, it's good if it's not!"
Uncle Camel breathed a sigh of relief, if Baili Xi'er really moved her spring heart, it would be terrible, and the word "doing stupid things" was not enough to describe it.
Wuyin Island and Chonglou Island, these two major forces that are in the same vein and later parted ways, if the marriage between them is destroyed, it will not be solved by simply dissolving the marriage contract, and the big war will be light.
Baili Xi'er didn't notice Uncle Camel's fear, but said excitedly: "Uncle Camel, do you think he looks like my father?!"
"It's really alike, the way you talk, the way you do it, it's all majestic. ”
"Yes? I don't think so. ”
Uncle Camel dealt with it casually, and his heart, which was pounding non-stop, finally fell back, as long as it was not the love of men and women, after she reminded him, it was really a bit similar after thinking about it.
But in a blink of an eye, he put this thought behind him, and said to Baili Xi'er: "Miss, we have been out for a while, and we should go back, otherwise the island is mainly to blame......"
"Okay......"
Baili Xi'er reluctantly glanced at this sea area again, as if the caged bird was difficult to breathe, and had to return to the golden wire cage, her eyes were full of melancholy.
...... Unlike Baili Xi'er, as soon as he left, Zhang Fan left the two of them behind, but they were just passers-by, how they thought was not in his heart at all, as for agreeing to the ten-year covenant, part of it was to deal with things, and the other part was the infestation of Tianhuo purple gold copper that Lan Feng said, which is the key.
Regardless of whether there is a factor of Baili Xi'er or not, ten years later, he will definitely go to Fog Hidden Island.
Leaving that sea area, the three of them had a smooth journey, but after half an hour's effort, the outline of an island loomed in the sky, and the number of immortal cultivators coming and going gradually increased.
- Yishi Island!
"Finally back. ”
I haven't seen him for twenty years, and this Yishi Island not only does not have a strange feeling in Zhang Fan's heart, but is faintly kind.
Looking at the eyes of surprise or awe around him as if there was nothing, Zhang Fan waved his hand and threw the black and white rats into the island like meteors.
As soon as I entered, the hustle and bustle came, and after 20 years of living in isolation, I faced such a bustle again, and it was like a feeling of being separated from the world.
Walking through the streets, everything is not much different from 20 years ago, the prices are the same, and so are the crowds of people, at most there are only a few more shops and a few stalls.
Yishi Island is not big, even if Zhang Fan strolls over with such an almost nostalgic attitude, but in a moment, he also arrives at a spacious street.
It's more of a shop than a street.
The whole street is hung with signs of the same shop on the left and right, so you don't need to enter, just by looking outside, you can see the strength of this shop.
The ability to turn an entire street into a shop lobby is a shocking act.
- Half-idle!
The names of the shops hanging on the whole street are the three characters "Banxian Hall".
Twenty years ago, Zhang Fan left behind a huge amount of refining materials in this overseas place, which was enough to support the operation of the shop for twenty or thirty years, and now it seems that the old man and the thin monkey have not wasted these twenty years of hard work, at least in Zhang Fan's opinion, the scale of the store alone has more than doubled.
"Boss, this is your shop!"
"It's huge!"
The black and white rat looked at the large-scale shop in front of him, with an envious look in his eyes, he could really see the real thing, and he was not so resistant to the next fifty years of guardianship.
"Guarding in such a shop, the oil and water must be big. ”
Thinking of this, the saliva of both of them was going to stay.
Zhang Fan smiled slightly, didn't say much, and led the two of them straight into the store.
As soon as he entered, the smile on his face disappeared, and it turned like frost, cold like winter.
Seeing that the scale of the shop in Banxiantang has expanded, and the signboard is still there, I thought that no one would make trouble in the twenty-year strength vacuum, but now it seems that this is not the case.
At this time, it was morning, and the redness of the store should have begun, but what appeared in front of Zhang Fan was a depressed scene.
There were only two or three kittens coming and going, and they were still dressed as shop guys, but there were no customers.
That's it, no business is not necessarily a big deal, maybe it is affected by something, but as soon as he saw the listless movements and lazy expressions of those guys, Zhang Fan knew that something must have happened.
The quality of a store's operation, many times you only need to look at the guys inside, the mental outlook is excellent, every day is like a chicken blood, business is bound to be booming, like the listlessness in front of you seems to have not slept for three days, it must be extremely bad.
"This senior, welcome to the shop, please do it inside. ”
"Little San, serve tea!"
A guy stepped forward, but a mortal couldn't judge Zhang Fan's cultivation, he was a senior when he opened his mouth, and a smile barely appeared on his face.
Zhang Fan saw this person, but nodded secretly, the old man of the shopkeeper really has the means, although these mortal guys are desperate for the business of the store, but there is no day when they are not messing around, but when the guests come to the door, their performance is still good, which shows that the shopkeeper's training is not in vain.
"You don't have to do it, tell your shopkeeper to come out, and the thin monkey can do it. ”
As soon as Zhang Fan said this, the guy's face immediately changed, grief, anger, fear, and resentment...... One by one, he finally took a deep breath, suppressed all his emotions, and said reluctantly calmly: "Please wait a while, senior, the little one will be informed." ”
After saying that, he turned around and went up to the second floor.
"Boss, he seems to be mistaking us. ”
The black and white rats came forward and whispered, and there was no lack of schadenfreude in the words.
"Humph!"
"There must be trouble, it's time for you two rats to show what you're up to. ”
Zhang Fan glanced at them with a smile and said jokingly.
"Ah......h
"Boss, don't ......"
Under the angry or obscene gazes of the surrounding guys, Zhang Fan and the three of them were at ease, talking and laughing freely.
In fact, whether it is the black and white rats, or Zhang Fan himself, they don't take the trouble of Banxian Tang to heart at all, as long as they see that Banxian Tang can still open normally, they know that the trouble is not too big.
There are three Jie Dan Grandmasters in charge, if you can't solve such a small trouble, it will be a joke!
After a while, the sound of "oh oh" sounded from the staircase.
Zhang Fan followed the prestige, and saw one in front of three and three behind, and four figures appeared from the staircase in turn.
Walking in front was the guy who had gone in earlier to report, and at this time his face not only did not have An Ran, who was behind him, but became more and more sad and angry, and as he walked, he clenched his fists tightly, as if otherwise, it would not be enough to suppress the impulse in his heart.
"This is a loyal servant, a material to be made!"
Zhang Fan nodded secretly, but this was not the time to pay attention to this person, his gaze moved back and fell on the three people who appeared later.
At the moment of the face, two of the three people on the opposite side were suddenly stunned, and their bodies were trembling slightly.
The old man in charge of the shopkeeper looked much older, not only his hair was white, but his eyes, which were originally quite godly, also looked cloudy, and only when he saw Zhang Fan, his eyes showed a lot of color, as if he came to life in an instant.
Behind him, there was a middle-aged fat man, whose body was so fat that he occupied most of the stairs, so that the people behind him still couldn't come down, and half of his head was blocked by the corner of the stairs, and he couldn't see his true face.
"It's ......"
Zhang Fan almost couldn't believe his eyes, from this person's body, he really felt how long the time of twenty years was.
The skinny monkey who was as thin as a monkey back then is now as fat as a pig, and the width of his body alone is more than four times that of before, not to mention the chest like a woman, the big belly that can't be seen on the surface of his feet when he looks down, and the fat on his cheeks that trembles when he walks, and the stairs that are pressed by it "creak" and "creak" completely explain his state at this time.
The vicissitudes of life, things are people, these two words are used on him, it is really appropriate.
If it weren't for the eyebrows between his eyebrows, as well as the eyes that were always skinny, all of them were rare with the charm of the thin monkey back then, Zhang Fan really didn't dare to admit it.
"Old ...... Old ......"
The thin monkey also recognized Zhang Fan's identity at this time, and he didn't know if he was too excited or how, he stammered for a long time, and he couldn't say a word.
"Dad, are you alright?"
The guy who had led the way before hurriedly turned around and supported the thin monkey, and at the same time glared at Zhang Fan angrily, and his pretty face instantly turned red.
"He's the son of a skinny monkey......"
Zhang Fan looked at it carefully, and sure enough, there was a bit of a thin monkey between his eyebrows, but compared to his old man, this guy was much more handsome.
At this time, he also suddenly understood why when he said that he was looking for "Thin Monkey", the young man decided that he was looking for trouble.
The current thin monkey, where is there still a little "thin monkey" appearance, will be called so, either the old man, or come to find trouble and deliberately humiliated, it is estimated that the recent environment is not good, the young guy directly thought it was the latter, and then there was a misunderstanding.
"Phew!"
"You wait for a splash, it's not good to make a living, you actually use such a black hand to eat me with a stick!"
Xu Shijian's shopkeeper and the thin monkey's reaction was too abnormal, and he was misled by the young man, and the person who had been blocked at the corner of the stairs probably thought something was wrong, and couldn't help but move his hand.
"Boom!~"
Broken wood flew horizontally, stairs pierced, and a spiritual weapon like a cooked copper rod pierced out and shot out.
