Chapter 50 White Dragon Academy
No words were spoken that night.
The next morning, Chen Luo was practicing breathing exercises in the yard as usual.
With the Nineteenth Young Master and the original royal brain, Chen Luo's cultivation speed has increased by nearly one-fold, and the energy absorbed by breathing every day has also increased by one ray. The light blue energy in the body is consuming more, and the body is undergoing some subtle changes.
This change is difficult to detect with the naked eye. Chen Luo can feel it, but when he goes to look for it, he finds nothing. He only knows that the power of the Black Tiger Fist he throws out is stronger.
“Senior Brother, Senior Brother!”
A voice interrupted Chen Luo's practice. A chubby little kid at the door was secretly looking into the yard.
"Xiao Hu, what do you want from me?"
Chen Luo, who had just finished his practice, restrained his breath, smiled and asked.
Xiaohu is Ruan Jianglong's only son. After Chen Luo arrived at the guest room last night, Ruan Jianglong specially brought him over to meet Chen Luo.
"My father asked me to tell you that he has heard the news about Baixian Cave. By the way, he asked me to get closer to you so that you can take me to become an immortal when you become rich in the future." Ruan Xiaohu is worthy of being a tiger boy. He says whatever his father says without hiding anything.
Chen Luo was also amused when he heard it.
He stood up, walked over, touched Ruan Xiaohu's head, and asked.
"Then do you know where the Baixian Cave is?"
The decision to go to his uncle Ruan Jianglong was the right one. As the head of the largest escort agency in Bailong City, Ruan Jianglong had a wide network of contacts. He found out the information he wanted to know in one night and even asked his only son to tell him. Chen Luo naturally saw the little tricks in it. He was not particularly disgusted by this. In his opinion, this was human nature.
If you want others to help you, you must show enough value in helping them.
He now has the value of being "invested in". The fight with Ruan Jianglong yesterday was the best proof of his potential.
"My father said it's in White Dragon City, but you have to pay to get there first."
"Spend money?"
Chen Luo was stunned. He didn't expect that such a holy place of immortals would be in a place like Bailong City, and that it even charged money for teaching. This made him feel like his dreams were shattered.
"Where's your father?"
Chen Luo thought about it and decided to find Ruan Jianglong and ask him in person.
"Drinking in the yard." Thinking of his father, Ruan Xiaohu actually showed an expression of disgust on his face.
"Take me there."
Chen Luo bent down, picked up Xiaohu, and asked him to help find the way.
After a while, the two arrived at the yard where Ruan Jianglong lived.
"Nephew, you're here?"
As soon as Chen Luo entered the house, he saw his master Ma Quezi and his uncle Ruan Jianglong eating inside.
Seeing him coming, Ruan Jianglong stood up and greeted him. Ma Quezi had a bad leg and did not stand up, but he also looked over.
"Xiaohu told you everything, right?"
Ruan Jianglong was smiling, his fierce face was full of caring for his elders, and he was completely different from last night. Especially when he saw Chen Luo holding Ruan Xiaohu, his smile became more enthusiastic.
"Uncle, Master."
Chen Luo first greeted the two of them, and then told them the purpose of his visit.
"Junior Brother Xiaohu did tell me about the Baixian Cave, but..."
Chen Luo couldn't say that Xiaohu was too young to express himself clearly, so he mentioned it, believing that Ruan Jianglong would understand. Upon hearing this, Ruan Jianglong patted Xiaohu's head and told him to go play by himself.
"Come on, come on, sit down and talk."
After sending his son away, Ruan Jianglong returned to the table, pulled out a chair for Chen Luo to sit next to him, and brought him a set of bowls and chopsticks.
"Have you had breakfast? We martial artists must have a good breakfast, otherwise our qi and blood won't be able to keep up, and our martial arts will be wasted."
Seeing this, Chen Luo had no choice but to pick up his bowl and chopsticks and start eating together.
In fact, he could not be considered a pure warrior. He had the qualifications since he obtained the royal brain. Although the light blue energy in his body could not be used, it would slowly change his body. Now, even if Chen Luo did not eat or drink for three days, it would not affect his strength.
"After you mentioned Baixian Cave to me last night, I asked my subordinates to inquire about it, and we got the news early this morning."
Ruan Jianglong did not beat around the bush and immediately asked Chen Luo what he was concerned about as soon as he sat down.
"Speaking of which, this Baixian Cave has something to do with me."
"oh?"
"Baixian Cave is indeed in Bailong City, and its location is very conspicuous. Your master and I went there to confirm it this morning." When he said this, Ruan Jianglong looked at his junior brother Ma Quezi. No matter what, Chen Luo was his disciple, so he still had to respect Ma Quezi's attitude.
"It's the White Dragon Academy."
Ma Quezi picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, then told the location of Baixian Cave.
"White Dragon Academy?"
Isn't that where young scholars study? Aunt Wang, who sells noodles at the entrance of the alley, has a son who studies in the academy in Shangshui City. In Chen Luo's impression, all academies are prepared for the imperial examinations and are places for scholars.
"It is indeed the White Dragon Academy. The White Dragon Academy in White Dragon City was founded by the Immortal Master of the White Immortal Cave."
Ma Quezi stopped talking and motioned Ruan Jianglong to continue.
"Six years ago, when I was escorting a caravan outside, I met a strange man. Thanks to his guidance, my Black Tiger Fist was able to break through common sense and reach the Grandmaster level." Ruan Jianglong told about his strange experience.
The fact that Huwei Escort Agency has been able to develop to its current level in Bailong City has a lot to do with that adventure he had back then.
It’s a pity that the immortal only gave me a casual reminder and we never had any contact again afterwards.
Afterwards, Ruan Jianglong expanded the Huwei Escort Agency and met the upper echelons of Bailong City. Only then did he learn the identity of the immortal from them.
He is the dean of Bailong Academy, an immortal wandering in the mortal world.
Ruan Jianglong came into the attention of this group of people ever since he had his adventure. Later, when his Huwei Escort Agency opened, these people also helped him a lot, both openly and secretly. The most important reason for this was because of that immortal.
"The immortal who instructed me is the immortal from Baixian Cave whom you asked about."
I see.
Chen Luo immediately understood.
"If that's the case, why did Master tell me that he needed money?"
"This is what the immortal wants."
When talking about this matter, Ruan Jianglong also smiled bitterly.
"When the Immortal Master first arrived in Bailong City, he was not too ostentatious. It was only because of my incident that his identity was exposed. After hearing the news, the powerful and influential people came to him one by one through their connections, hoping to become his disciples and seek immortality."
From this scene, you can imagine that the threshold must have been trampled down by someone.
The people in the upper echelons of White Dragon City had nothing to pursue, and suddenly saw the hope of immortality, and they were all like crazy trying to get involved. Even Ruan Jianglong, who they had only met once, was praised by them, not to mention the Immortal Master himself.
"These people are not stupid. They were accompanied by acquaintances when they went there. Although the Immortal Master was not happy, he couldn't refuse his acquaintances. After being asked again and again, he got tired of it and opened this academy. The purpose is to have peace and quiet. There are two purposes for setting the rules of money to enter. One is to eliminate a group of speculators, and the other is to use the money to do something."
