Master Shen opened his eyes wide in surprise. What else did he want to ask, but Bai Fanlu didn't intend to explain any more to him.
Even though Xiang Wan was kind-hearted, once they knew his true identity, people would only be afraid of him and keep trying to make him disappear completely.
His existence itself is a great threat to ordinary people.
After touching a stick of incense, the door was opened from the inside, and Shen Lanshan came out, leaning weakly by the door, but looking at his eyes, he should have recovered his sanity.
"Lanshan!" Master Shen was overjoyed, hurriedly went up to support him, uncertain, "You, are you alright?"
"Father, the child's unfilial piety has made you worry."
Master Shen hugged his son excitedly, couldn't help crying, Shen Lanshan also hugged his father back, and the servants raised their sleeves to wipe away their tears.
Bai Fanlu was watching from the side, but he didn't see Xiang Wanyi coming out, a white shadow flashed by the window, and then he felt that Wanyi was attached to himself again.
Xu came quietly through the window because he was afraid of scaring people.
"Master Immortal is really the reborn benefactor of my Shen family!"
Master Shen pulled Shen Lanshan to bow down to Bai Fanlu, but Bai Fanlu hurriedly supported them, "It doesn't have to be like this."
He took out the Longevity Lock from his arms, "I have set a spell on this lock, Mr. Shen will wear it with you, it will keep you safe."
"Thank you! Thank you!" Master Shen thanked him a thousand times, and put it on for his son after taking it.
Shen Lanshan looked at Bai Fanlu, his gaze seemed to be able to see through him, to see through the hidden shadow on his body.
Bai Fanlu nodded slightly at him.
Seeing that Bai Fanlu turned around to leave, Master Shen hurriedly said, "Is the immortal master leaving now? If you don't mind, please stay in the humble house for one night. I will send someone to prepare a small gift tomorrow morning. Immortal master must not refuse, otherwise I have trouble sleeping and eating!"
Bai Fanlu naturally didn't intend to leave now, but he was worried that Xiang Wanyi would feel uncomfortable if he left the bridge for too long.
"Master Shen is being polite. I am ashamed to say that I do have something to trouble you, but I need to leave for a while now, and I will come back to the mansion later to bother you."
"That's very good, the fairy master will go first, and I will order someone to wait for you."
When Bai Fanlu left, he could still clearly feel that line of sight following him.
Shen Lanshan had just left the house, and he only said a word to Master Shen. From the looks of others, he may have been bedridden for a long time, but Bai Fanlu understood that Shen Lanshan's expression showed reluctance and loneliness. Xiang Wanyi should be with him I understand.
Back to the bridge, the paper-like talismans on the bridge rattled in the evening wind. Bai Fanlu felt that it was an eyesore, and burned them up with a wave of his hand.
At this moment, Xiang Wanyi left Bai Fanlu's body and appeared in illusion, just in time to see his actions.
"My lord, I'm curious about something, can I ask for advice?"
Bai Fanlu was clapping his hands, now that the bridge deck is clean, it is much more pleasing to his eyes.
"What's the matter? Just say it straight, and don't call me son, call me Lu Fan."
"Okay, Lu Fan." Wan Yi didn't hesitate, and smiled slightly, "Are you a fairy? I just felt it from you."
"Well, what's the matter?" Did the immortal energy on his body make him feel stressed
Xiang Wanyi left Bai Fan Road, and gradually regained that ethereal soul form. The smile just now was so shallow that he couldn't see clearly, but Bai Fan Road could imagine his expression at this moment, because there was a very comfortable atmosphere around him.
Probably this is the so-called spring breeze.
It was so strange that even though he had unfortunately fallen into a demonic path, this person gave him such an unbelievable feeling.
Xiang Wanyi didn't know what Bai Fanlu was thinking, and said, "You know my identity, but you are still willing to help me. Among the immortals who came here in the past, none of them are like you, so I'm a little surprised."
Bai Fanlu couldn't help laughing, are they surprising each other
One is a devil but not like a devil, and the other is a fairy but not like a fairy. No wonder it feels so similar.
Suddenly I thought of Xiao Liu, his argument that there is no difference between immortals and demons. From this point of view, that child is more transparent than him.
"You are the one who surprised me. You are obviously a demon, but you are thinking about how to sacrifice yourself for others."
"Lu Fan..." Xiang Wanyi could hear the concern in Bai Fanlu's tone.
Bai Fanlu sighed, and said seriously, "There is only one year left, do you really plan to go on like this?"
Xiang Wanyi was silent for a moment, "When I was talking to Lan Shan just now, he also asked this question. In fact, I didn't want to tell him this at first, but I think what you said is also reasonable."
"For those who are cherished, sometimes deception in good faith is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst. Instead of leaving without saying goodbye in the future, it is better to live together in the present without leaving regrets."
Bai Fanlu's guess was right, Wanyi did listen to his persuasion, and told Shen Lanshan frankly that his time was numbered and there would be no afterlife.
In the original novel, Yun Zhan did not ask Xiang Wanyi to do this, nor did the original owner. Bai Fanlu felt that when he read the novel, he should not deceive him if he cared about a person, let alone a matter of life and death.
Although it seems a little too cruel to do so, in Bai Fanlu's view, if you treat someone with sincerity, and that person will also reciprocate with sincerity, you must treat him honestly whether he is alive or dead.
The right to decide lies with the other party, and the right to speak lies with oneself.
On the other hand, if the other party lied to him and said everything was for his own good, he might not choose to forgive so easily.
Bai Fanlu has never been in a relationship, but he thinks it should be like this. Who is not idealistic? As for the reality, let's talk about it when we encounter it.
The two sat silently by the stream for a while, and reminded Wanyi, "It's getting late, you should go back."
Only then did Bai Fanlu stand up, and Wan Yi was like a bosom friend for many years, he forgot the time for a moment.
"There must be a way, and you don't give up."
Bai Fanlu didn't know why he said this, and he didn't think about the specifics, but he felt that everything was man-made, and there was nothing absolutely unsolvable.
Wan Yi shook her head, and said in relief, "I thought that this year would be full of loneliness, but fortunately with your help, Lanshan and I can only have this last time. I am already very content and dare not ask for more."
When they parted, Bai Fanlu looked back at the figure beside the bridge, feeling as if a big stone had been pressed on his heart, feeling extremely heavy.
The next day, when Bai Fanlu packed up and was about to say goodbye to his master in the main hall, a servant came to report that the master was already waiting for him, and a young man knocked on the door early in the morning, asking for Mr. Lu Fan by name.
Bai Fanlu was wondering who could find him here, and when the servant mentioned the name Lu Fan, he immediately guessed very well.
Sure enough, as soon as he walked out of the inner courtyard, he saw the boy who was looking forward to it at the entrance of the hall, and the little white monkey Zhizhi on his shoulder.
As soon as he saw Bai Fanlu, Xiao Liu excitedly called him loudly and waved to him.
"Brother Immortal, I finally caught up with you!"
Bai Fanlu was dumbfounded, he really didn't expect Xiao Liu to be so persistent, looking at his two big dark circles, he must have been on the road all night and didn't sleep.
"how did you find me?"
"Of course it's squeaking!"
So is this a monkey nose or a dog nose
Bai Fanlu glared at the little white monkey meaningfully, and the little guy was still grimacing at him, and then whispered his goodwill.
Bai Fanlu was extremely helpless, "Okay."
There is no way, let's say goodbye to the master first and then solve this kid's problem.
Bai Fanlu entered the main hall, Master Shen and Shen Lanshan were already waiting for him, after a night of rest, Shen Lanshan's complexion improved slightly.
On the guest table, apart from the teacups, there is also a neatly arranged plate of silver ingots and silks and satins.
"I don't know how to thank you, so I can only present it with these vulgar things. I hope the immortal master will not laugh at you."
Bai Fanlu knew that Master Shen would give him a thank you gift, and he came here for the reward, but his goal was not these.
Since the master was interested, Bai Fanlu no longer pretended to be polite, and said bluntly, "There is no need for these, but I do have something, and I would like to ask Master Shen for help."
"The immortal master's words are serious, please speak quickly."
"I'm ashamed to say that I urgently need a horse for transportation. I don't know..." Bai Fanlu paused.
Master Shen didn't expect that he just wanted a horse. Although it was strange, he agreed immediately, "It's easy! It's just a horse. There are a few good horses left, but the fairy master chooses them."
Bai Fanlu was about to bow his hands to thank him, but Xiao Liu suddenly tugged at his sleeves and asked in a low voice, "Brother Immortal, what do you want?"
what else can i do Of course it is riding.
Bai Fanlu said, "Go out and talk to you."
Bai Fanlu finally picked a bay red horse, and before leaving, he said goodbye to Shen Lanshan and told him not to leave the silver lock.
In front of Master Shen, Shen Lanshan politely responded. Bai Fanlu thought he had nothing to say, so he turned and left, but just a few steps away, Shen Lanshan suddenly caught up and threw off the servant who was following him.
"Master Lu, if there is a way to save him, I will die!"
He spoke concisely, with a sincere expression. After only a few words, he started to cough violently again because of his emotions. Only when his servants came to help him, did Shen Lanshan turn around reluctantly, and said, "Please be sure... definitely..."
The turbulent emotion in those deep-set eyes was too heavy, making Bai Fanlu look at him, his eyes trembled for a while.
"I will find a way, don't worry, take care of yourself."
It's not the phrase "there must be a way" last night, but "I will find a way".
Bai Fanlu didn't know why he made such an unsure promise. He originally decided to meddle in this business just for the favor of a horse.
But ever since he met Xiang Wanyi himself, Bai Fanlu had a feeling that he couldn't help but watch such a gentle and beautiful person unable to enter reincarnation.
And now that feeling materialized and became a decision.
When he made a decision, the voice of the system also sounded in his head
"Unlock the side mission 'A Good Ending', mission objective: to help Wanyi re-enter reincarnation."
"Mission completion reward: 'Reader's Brain Hole' fragment x 5, activate the hidden event to get additional rewards."
"Mission Cheats: By the Yellow Springs, Meng Po Soup. Life is dead, and death is life."
"Brother Immortal, what do you want to do, let me think with you?"
Bai Fanlu was thinking about the system's prompt, but was interrupted by Xiao Liu.
But he was in a heavy mood and didn't want to talk to him, so he led the horse out of the town, planning to buy some dry food reserves along the way, when he suddenly found a cloth bag hanging around the horse's neck, and opened it to find several ingots of silver ingots.
Bai Fanlu realized that just now, Master Shen insisted on giving him money in the fortress, and he didn't want it, so it turned out that he secretly put it here.
That being the case, let's accept it, the long journey will be used as an expense, and it will save him from trying to find a way to make money.
After putting the money into the treasure bag and buying the travel package, Bai Fanlu had already walked out of the town and was about to get on the horse, but Xiao Liu still followed him, persevering.
Bai Fanlu couldn't help asking, "Why do you insist on going with me?"
Xiao Liu looked at the sky, "A good man has ambitions in all directions, I want to go around like a fairy brother to fight for justice."
This "good man with aspirations in all directions" made Bai Fanlu a bit of a joke, he seemed to have said it himself.
Oh, I remembered, it was to Yun Zhan.
"I'm not fighting for justice, but I have something to do."
"Then I promise it won't affect you." Xiao Liu raised his hand and swore.
Bai Fanlu was defeated, and got on his horse without saying a word, while Clinker Xiaoliu was still chasing after him, panting very quickly.
Bai Fanlu couldn't see it, so he stopped.
"To tell you the truth, I was plotted against by that thief last night, and my spiritual power was damaged. I'm afraid you can't learn anything with me, and I can't protect you in danger."
"What?!" Xiao Liu panted fiercely, and his voice was as loud as a cow. He slowed down, and solemnly said with his hands on his hips, "Then I have to protect you even more!"
"..." Being defeated again, Bai Fanlu had a headache, "For example, the place I'm going to is thousands of miles away from here. Originally, I could get there in half a day by applying a spell, but now I have to walk. I'm afraid it's going to be a few years, so you see—"
Bai Fanlu patted the bay red horse under him, "I asked for it on purpose, but even if I ride a horse, I have to walk for a long time, why do you waste time with me?"
"Ah?" Xiao Liu suddenly opened his eyes wide.
It's time to play, Bai Fanlu thought to himself, what he said just now was exaggerated, the purpose was to scare off this ignorant brat, it seems that it finally worked.
I never thought that Maotou Xiaozi didn't speak loudly this time, but suddenly realized.
"Brother Xianren, why didn't you say it earlier? I have a solution! It's definitely better than your little skinny horse."
Where is thin? Obviously strong, okay? Bai Fanlu thought to himself, he must be talking casually, what can he do? Is it possible to build an airplane in this era
But Xiao Liu took out a jade leaf from his collar, brought it to his mouth, and heard a long and clear whistle, piercing the sky.
Bai Fanlu hadn't figured out the situation yet, and saw a black spot looming in the distance where the wilderness meets the blue sky.
The black spot gradually became bigger and approached at a very fast speed. When it reached the position where the outline could be seen clearly, there was a pure black horse with four white hooves running towards them with a long neigh.
The system beep sounded again.
"Congratulations for completing the hidden event 'Spring Breeze Proud of Horseshoe Disease', reward 'Shenhou·Snow in the Mountain', fragments of 'Reader's Brain Hole' x3."
