Chapter 516: Immortal Fairy Has More Experience
"One bowl is just right for each person." After the third bowl of wontons was cooked, Lu Yang happily pushed it in front of Lan Ting.
Lan Ting glanced at Tao Yaoye casually, sat down quietly, and moved as gently as a lady from a noble family, then picked up a wonton with chopsticks.
Since it was the place chosen by Senior Brother Lu Yang, it must be a very distinctive snack stand...it's really unpalatable.
Lan Ting looked at the bowl of wontons in surprise. These were the worst wontons she had ever eaten.
In fact, the quality of this bowl of wontons can only be described as average, not to the point of being the worst. However, Lan Ting was born in a noble family and had eaten all kinds of delicacies. After joining the Laurel Fairy Palace, although the food became lighter, the taste was still unique in the world of immortal cultivation.
The wontons were considered average in the mortal world, so naturally she found them difficult to swallow.
The boss was happy to see Lu Yang ordered another bowl of wontons. Everyone in Yuanhe County knew that my wontons were nasty. It was these outsiders who were being cheated.
He has run a wonton shop for nearly 30 years, and all his customers are from other places.
Lu Yang was lucky, there was too much vinegar in the bowl, which covered the smell of the wontons.
No matter what, since you ordered wontons, you have to eat them, and the three of them finished three bowls of wontons.
Lu Yang wiped his mouth and remembered that he hadn't said anything yet: "By the way, I haven't had time to ask Junior Sister Lan Ting, what are you doing here? Are you also doing a mission?"
"Well, a man named Mr. Song asked for help from Yuegui Xiangong. He said that he had a strange painting at home. It couldn't be burned, thrown away, or torn apart. It would also make strange noises in the middle of the night. It was very dangerous."
Tao Yaoye added, "It's the same for me and Senior Brother Lu. Senior Brother Lu was worried that I couldn't complete the task alone, so he came with me."
Lu Yang was a little confused. What Junior Sister Tao said was not wrong, but it still felt weird.
"It seems that Mr. Song is asking for help from our two families."
This is a very common occurrence. Those seeking help are not sure which immortal sect is reliable, so to be on the safe side, they will issue tasks to several immortal sects. As a result, disciples of the five major sects often have to take on the same tasks.
For example, Taoist Buyu and Luo Hongxia had the same mission when they were young. Lanting heard from his master that the two went on a mission to exorcise ghosts. They stayed in an inn for three days, but could not find the ghost. Finally, they found it under Taoist Buyu's bed. When Taoist Buyu was sleeping, the ghost was right below, looking at him through the bed.
Then the Taoist Buyu insisted that the ghost and himself split the rent for the three days equally.
The ghost then brought up the laws of Daxia, saying that according to the law, he was not a living being and did not have to pay the rent.
Taoist Buyu also brought up the laws of Daxia, saying that ghosts have no human rights and that monks can kill them at will when they see them.
Gui Guaiguai divided the rent equally and was arrested.
"Brother Lu, Sister Tao, have you investigated Mr. Song's affairs?"
Tao Yaoye repeated the results of the investigation just now: "This is the result of my investigation with Senior Brother Lu Yang."
"Brother Lu Yang is amazing. He has investigated so many things since he came to Yuanhe County. I believe that Junior Sister Tao has also helped a lot in this. I have been here for three days longer than Brother Lu Yang, and I have only investigated a little more than Brother Lu Yang."
"It's a pity that I'm alone. If Senior Brother Lu Yang could help me, I would definitely be able to find out more."
Tao Yaoye seemed not to have heard Lan Ting's voice-over, and asked calmly, "What did Junior Sister Lan find out?"
"Mr. Song's life took a turn twenty years ago. In fact, his family had fallen on hard times and didn't have much money left. He tried his best and put all his property into business, but failed and lost everything. Someone saw him walking into the mountains, as if he was going to commit suicide. Unexpectedly, half a day later, Mr. Song walked out of the mountains, his expression was no longer dazed, and he was holding a painting in his hand."
"You all know what happened next. Mr. Song suddenly developed a business mind, and his wealth rolled in. His family was happy and complete."
Lan Ting looked at Tao Yaoye proudly and said, "How about this? You haven't found out this important information yet."
After listening to Lan Ting's story, Tao Yaoye took Lan Ting's hand affectionately and said, "Junior Sister Lan is amazing. You can investigate so many things by yourself. It seems that you are doing well on your own."
Lan Ting's face was filled with smiles. He took Tao Yaoye's arm and said intimately, "No, as the old saying goes, there is strength in numbers. It's a pity that Senior Brother Lu Yang came with you. If he had come with me, we would have completed the mission by now."
"Junior Sister Lan, do you mean that you are stronger than me?"
"Junior Sister Tao, please don't misunderstand my meaning. After all, I came three days earlier. If Senior Brother Lu Yang and I had come three days earlier, with Senior Brother Lu Yang's ability, wouldn't we have been able to complete the mission?"
"That's right. With Senior Brother Lu Yang's ability, he can complete the task alone."
The two girls walked hand in hand, with smiles of reunion on their faces, as close as sisters.
Lu Yang didn't pay attention to what the two women said afterwards. He kept thinking about the information Lan Ting had collected: "Sure enough, the problem lies with that painting."
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
"Let's go meet Mr. Song."
A man and two women walked towards Mr. Song's house. On the way there, Lan Ting looked at Lu Yang frequently.
"Junior Sister Lanting, is there something on my face?"
Lan Ting smiled and said, "No, I just think you are amazing, Senior Brother. You became the successor to the sect leader at such a young age, and even the sect celebration was hosted by you. As far as I know, this is the first time in history. In comparison, I am far behind."
“No, no, I became the acting sect leader just by luck.” Lu Yang was not being modest. He became the acting sect leader just by luck as he resurrected the immortal fairy.
Seeing Lan Ting disappointed, Lu Yang comforted her again: "And Junior Sister Lan, you are very powerful. I saw your fight with Lao Meng at that time. You fought too nervously, which was not your true level."
Hearing Lu Yang's encouragement, Lan Ting smiled again: "That's right, I should be more confident. After all, I was fighting on behalf of the Immortal Palace Jindan Stage."
"I and Junior Sister Tao hit it off right away. I originally thought we could meet in the ring, but unfortunately things didn't go as planned and we didn't get a chance to spar with each other."
Tao Yaoye said softly, "Junior Sister Lan, do you like fighting so much? I saw that you usually move gently, so I thought you were a lady from a wealthy family."
Lu Yang always felt something was wrong, so he turned around and asked the Immortal Fairy: "Fairy, do you think the attitudes of Junior Sisters Tao and Lan are weird?"
The Immortal Fairy had been observing in the spiritual space for a while and indeed felt that the actions and tone of these two little girls were a little strange.
"I always feel that this scene is very familiar... I remember that the geniuses of the Dragon and Phoenix clans acted like this in front of me, praising each other and being very united. They wanted me to accept them as my disciples."
"Then Junior Sister Tao and Junior Sister Lan are like this because..."
The Immortal Fairy said confidently: "They must want you to accept them as your apprentices. After all, you performed very well at the celebration and showed your superior combat power!"
“That makes sense.”
