Chapter 886 Science Fiction Movie Girlfriend
The sky gradually brightened, a hint of paleness appeared in the east, the faint and moist morning mist brought a brief coolness to this hot summer day, and the air was filled with the smell of grass and trees.
The next morning, when Wei Changtian opened his eyes, Gu Paner had just brought a basin of water for washing his face and was carefully adjusting the water temperature.
“.”
Sitting up from the bed, rubbing his temples, Wei Changtian stretched lazily in a relaxed manner.
Last night he drank with Gu Paner until midnight, and then went back to the inn to sleep. It means "slept" in the literal sense, not "slept" in that sense.
This cannot be blamed on Wei Changtian for being “not a man”.
After all, Gu Paner has now become a good woman, so he certainly can't treat her as a prostitute anymore.
"Sir, are you awake?"
Noticing the movement from Wei Changtian, Gu Paner turned her head and said with a smile, "I was a little drunk last night and didn't help you change your clothes. I'm afraid you didn't sleep very well."
"It's okay. Warriors don't have to be so particular."
Wei Changtian responded casually, got out of bed, walked over, took the towel from Gu Paner, and washed his face hastily.
Of course he wasn't drunk. Last night he was at most "slightly tipsy".
And Gu Paner probably wasn't drunk either, and what she just said was just an excuse.
She knew that people like her must be hiding many secrets, so she didn't help her change clothes, for fear that she would see something she shouldn't see and then cause her disgust.
Combined with what happened last night when they were drinking, it can be seen that Gu Paner is a woman who is very good at observing people's words and expressions and knows her limits.
But it's normal. After all, after so many years in the brothel, this should be the most basic "professional quality". After washing his face and changing into clean clothes, Wei Changtian and Gu Paner went to the front hall of the inn to eat breakfast.
It was only just dawn, but there were quite a few guests eating in the front hall. The aroma of porridge mixed with the sound of conversation filled every corner.
During the meal, Wei Changtian casually asked Gu Paner about her next plans.
The latter seemed to be a little hesitant, looked up at him, and after a long while she replied softly: "I haven't made up my mind yet."
"Well, think about it slowly."
Wei Changtian pretended not to see what she was thinking, and suggested seriously: "But I think you still need to find a way to make a living."
"Oh, right, you've been in Manxianglou for so many years, you should be very familiar with rouge and powder. Why don't you open a shop selling rouge and powder?"
"Of course, I'm just saying that, it's better if you have other plans."
As he spoke, he took out a silver note from his bosom and placed it in front of Gu Paner.
Wei Changtian explained while drinking his porridge:
"No matter what you do, you need money."
"I don't know if the government can get your money back yet. Take this one thousand taels and use it first. Just think of it as a loan from me to you along with the five thousand taels I gave you yesterday."
"Don't be embarrassed. This little money is nothing to me."
“.”
He gave away another thousand taels at once. If Xu Qingwan were here, she would probably be heartbroken.
However, Wei Changtian really didn't care about this little money, so after he finished speaking, he just continued eating.
As for Gu Paner on the other side, if it were someone else, they would probably struggle for a while at this time, and then either refuse or accept it reluctantly with great gratitude.
Gu Paner just looked around vigilantly, and when she saw that no one was paying attention to this side, she quickly put the banknote into her sleeve.
"Sir, this is a thousand taels of silver, ordinary people have never even seen it before."
She looked at Wei Changtian helplessly and reminded him in a low voice: "Why did you take it out like this?"
"It's okay. No one dares to steal from me anyway."
Wei Changtian smiled and joked, and found Gu Paner more interesting.
Except for last night when he redeemed her, her reaction was almost the same as he expected, Gu Paner was indeed "generous" in a way that most women in this society did not have.
She has a high EQ, does things without procrastination, and is quite courageous . Perhaps this is closely related to her "work experience".
But no matter what, it is a rare quality here.
"Is one thousand taels enough?"
Shaking his head and not thinking any further, Wei Changtian looked at Gu Paner and said with a smile: "Anyway, I have already lent you 6,000 taels, a little more won't make a difference."
"Well, that should be enough."
After thinking for a while, Gu Paner nodded gently: "If it is not enough, I will talk to you again."
"Hahaha, okay."
Wei Changtian laughed twice, then drank the remaining porridge in the bowl in one gulp, put down his chopsticks and prepared to get up.
Seeing that he seemed to be leaving, Gu Paner hurriedly asked:
"Sir, do you have anything to do today?"
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
"I want to find a place to stay today. If you are free, can you accompany me?"
"Forget it, I have something to do today."
"Okay, then I'll go and take a look myself."
"Um"
“.”
Don't be shy when making a request, and don't be disappointed when being rejected.
To be honest, if we put aside Gu Paner's past identity, her personality should have been very popular in her previous life, and she would definitely be considered a "girlfriend in a science fiction movie."
It’s a pity that in today’s society, this kind of temperament is seen by most people as lacking the restraint and subtlety that women “should” have, and is instead a shortcoming.
A quarter of an hour later, Wei Changtian and Gu Paner left the inn respectively.
Since the latter was looking for a house to settle down in the future, he quickly found a real estate agent in the market and went with him to "look at houses".
Wei Changtian went straight to Yun'an Temple, a temple located in the north of Linchuan City.
Daqian is different from Daning. There is no mainstream way of cultivation in the country. There are various schools of thought. To put it nicely, it is called "a hundred schools of thought contending", to put it bluntly, it is "same catty and eight taels".
Therefore, there is only one Buddhist temple in the entire Linchuan Prefecture, which is Yun'an Temple.
Of course, Wei Changtian definitely didn’t come to Yun’an Temple to worship Buddha or anything like that.
The reason he came here was because the old beggar disappeared here last night.
When they fought last night, Wei Changtian used a "Thousand Miles of Smoke and Waves" on the old beggar in order to monitor his whereabouts.
Wei Changtian had used Qianli Yanbo many times before and there had never been any problems.
But this time something unexpected happened.
There was no problem at the beginning. Although the old beggar escaped with the help of the escape technique, Wei Changtian could still sense his location at all times.
But soon after the former arrived at Yun'an Temple, the "positioning signal" disappeared.
The working principle of Qianli Yanbo is somewhat similar to "GPS positioning", which is to leave a mark similar to a "locator" on other people, thereby achieving the effect of tracking.
Normally this kind of mark cannot be discovered. At least no one has ever discovered it before.
But now the old beggar not only discovered it, but was also able to erase the mark, which undoubtedly proved that his methods were not only those that Wei Changtian had seen.
That's why Wei Changtian decided to come to Yun'an Temple to see if he could find any clues.
At the same time as he was heading towards Yun'an Temple, several scouts also rushed into the city from outside the city, all the way to the Linchuan government office, and then breathlessly reported to Su Qi in front of his astonished eyes: "Sir! Something terrible has happened!!"
"Beast, beast tide!!"
"City, three hundred miles north of the city, a tide of beasts is heading towards Linchuan City!!"
