Chapter 31: Running Away

Before the monk came to tell his fortune, Fan Jianqiang had a sly look in his eyes, but at this moment, he looked honest and simple, and did not smile.

"This guest is extraordinary."

He said seriously: "I don't know, what do you want to calculate?"

"Simple."

Wu Xingyun responded calmly, “Just try to figure out what I’m thinking about right now.”

Lin Fan watched quietly from the side.

The people queuing behind were somewhat dissatisfied.

"Looking for trouble?"

"Miss, this is a bit too much for you, isn't it?"

"A woman's heart is as deep as the sea. If you want to predict the past and the future, perhaps a master can find some clues. But how can someone predict your thoughts?"

"Even the roundworms in my stomach are not okay, right?"

They had been here for a long time and already knew that this man was extremely accurate in his calculations, so they naturally didn't want Wu Xingyun to ruin his business.

"Noisy."

Wu Xingyun was too lazy to waste time talking to them. The aura of the Cave Heaven Realm cultivator only dissipated a little, which made their pupils shrink and they retreated repeatedly, not daring to say a word.

"Forget it."

She stared at Fan Jianqiang and spoke again.

Fan Jianqiang looked at her deeply twice, then used six copper coins to tell fortunes, but after he finished, he didn't say a word and just picked up the bucket and ran away.

He picked up the canvas with "Iron Knife Cut" written on it and walked away at a very fast pace, as if he was running for his life.

"Why are you running?"

Wu Xingyun was surprised and asked him to stop, but he ran faster and faster.

Lin Fan was secretly surprised: "This guy... is quite capable."

“Stop!”

Wu Xingyun dodged and blocked Fan Jianqiang's way.

"You haven't told me what I'm thinking yet."

"Need I tell you?" Fan Jianqiang said helplessly, "Isn't what I did obvious enough?"

"You want to beat me up, but if I don't run away, am I waiting to be beaten up by you?"

I actually figured it out!

Wu Xingyun was surprised.

I am a cave-heaven realm cultivator, and he is an ordinary person...

Even without mentioning the difference in power and the "cause and effect", he was able to figure out what I was thinking. There was something wrong with this person! A big problem!

It is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Lin Fan also followed slowly, feeling even more surprised.

This guy actually figured out what other people were thinking? !

Could it be that he can also see through my own thoughts?

He pondered for a moment, then stepped forward and said, "Don't blame me, sir. We two wanted to find someone, but this person is extraordinary, so we posed a difficult question first. Facts have proved that you are indeed a real talent."

"We would like to ask you to tell us another fortune. After the fortune is told, we will give you the money together. How do you think?"

While saying these words, Lin Fan's mind was extremely active.

I even cursed in my heart: "Your mother is a servant."

At the same time, stare closely at the other person's face.

But seeing that the other party didn't react at all, I couldn't help but feel relieved.

At least it proves that he doesn't have any mind-reading ability. Even if he could know other people's thoughts, he would still have to open a forum to tell fortunes. In that case, there's no need to worry too much.

"Looking for someone?"

Fan Jianqiang's expression looked a little better, although it was not his original appearance at the moment.

"Then I want double the divination fee."

"good."

Lin Fan nodded.

"In that case, come on."

"Write one word."

Fan Jianqiang said, "Divination."

"A fortune telling?"

It's not unfamiliar.

Lin Fan pondered for a moment and wrote down the word "Caution".

Shen of caution.

Fan Jianqiang's eyes flashed, and then he looked at Lin Fan deeply twice, and then he said in a deep voice: "This person is easy to find, but also difficult to find."

"oh?"

Lin Fan thought for a moment: "Why is this?"

Fan Jianqiang did not respond, and said, "There are not enough clues, we need to calculate again."

"Why are you looking for this person?"

"I want to take him as my apprentice."

Lin Fan did not hide it.

“···Why?” At this moment, it was Fan Jianqiang’s turn to be surprised.

What shocked him even more was that he could not figure out any of Lin Fan's origins with his face reading skills! It seemed like a chaos, and it seemed that he did not belong to this ancient history at all. There was no trace of him!

But he concealed his shock very well.

"This child has a destiny with our sect."

"But whether or not to become my disciple requires mutual consent. How can you be sure that the other party will agree?"

"I'm not sure, but I'm just trying my best and fighting for it with all my heart."

"If he agrees, then everyone will be happy. If he disagrees... then we can only say that we are not destined to be together."

It's all true!

Although in Fan Jianqiang's eyes, there was nothing behind Lin Fan and he could not figure out anything, but he could still tell whether what he said was true or false.

So he continued chatting.

"Oh? Then I wonder which sect you belong to?"

"The Moon-Lan Sect."

Lin Fan still did not hide anything, he even had some vague guesses.

Judging from the master's ability to see into people's minds just now, it shouldn't be necessary for him to know so much information about just one person.

Obviously, the person in front of him either knew Fan Jianqiang and wanted to help him check things out.

or...

But, is it such a coincidence?

"The Moon-Lan Sect?"

Fan Jianqiang smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "You must know that a wise bird chooses the right tree to inhabit. If I am not mistaken, the talent of the person you are looking for is quite good. If he is interested in joining an immortal sect, even if he cannot go to a holy land or a first-rate sect, it will not be difficult for him to enter a second-rate sect that ranks high."

"Why did you choose the third-rate... Lanyue Sect?"

"In my opinion, you should just give up."

"If it was during the peak period of your Lanyue Sect, there would still be some possibility."

"What a pity~~~"

"Or, in other words, why do you think you can succeed?"

Lin Fan also laughed.

“If you can’t stay at the top, then go back to where you came from.”

"This may sound crazy, and even a little ridiculous to you, but we have always been walking on this road with our heads held high, and have already come a long way."

"As for why? We have no strengths at the moment, except for this sincere heart."

"Besides, as you said, if he was willing to join the sect, he should have already joined. Why is he still a casual cultivator now?"

"Obviously, he is also waiting, perhaps waiting for an opportunity, waiting for a suitable sect. Of course, it is also possible that he is unwilling to join a sect and is bound by it."

"But... I want to try."

“Trying may not guarantee success, but not trying is bound to lead to failure, isn’t it?”

Fan Jianqiang was moved.

Especially the sentence "If you can't stay at the peak, then go back to the way you came", which made his expression change continuously, and the look he gave Lin Fan was also extremely complicated.

Melancholy, shock, disbelief, and even... a hint of surprise.

I wanted to say something countless times, but in the end, I held back.

He just took a deep breath and said, "I figured it out."

"oh?"

Wu Xingyun's face lit up with joy: "Where is this person?"

Although she didn't know the origin of this person, since he met one of the sect rules, he must be extraordinary.

"It's far away, yet it's right before your eyes."

Fan Jianqiang whispered.

Wu Xingyun was stunned.

Lin Fan smiled: "It's you."

"How did you find me?" Fan Jianqiang was puzzled: "My disguise method should be pretty good."

"fate."

"You and my sect are destined to be together~!"
