Chapter 715 Enlightenment
The next morning, light rain
In the hinterland of the Huo family, Lu Fan still cleaned up.
The golden robe shone slightly, blocking the falling rain three inches away.
"Lu Fan, I haven't found those two fighters. They seem to have flown away with a few Qi refiners. I can't fly, so I can't catch up!"
Ling Yao lowered her head and said softly, pinching the corner of her clothes with her fingers.
Lingyao felt ashamed that she failed to do such a simple thing well.
Lu Fan smiled and said: "No problem. Those two people probably didn't recognize us. We should worry about Huo Tianrui and the others now. Lingyao, from today onwards, we still need to have some eyes and ears in the Huo family. It will be much more convenient.”
Ling Yao nodded understandingly.
Continuing to clean, the Qi refiners of the Huo family passing by all bowed to Lu Fan.
Lu Fan's performance yesterday had already made all the Qi refiners of the Huo Family recognize him.
At the critical moment, Lu Fan not only protected the face of the Huo family, but also made Jin Shaoyan and others very embarrassed.
In particular, the fact that Lu Fan knocked Jin Shaoyan to the ground with one move was widely spread.
Even in the hinterland of the Huo family, the group of old men who don't care about worldly affairs have heard of it a little bit. They all looked at Lu Fan's expression with a bit of a smile. If it were said that Lu Fan was just a new kid with a good foreign surname in their eyes.
So now, the way they look at Lu Fan is almost like looking at the children of their own clan.
"Lu Fan!"
Not far away, there was a cry.
Turning his head to look, Lu Fan immediately saw the Fifth Elder, Huolong Zhu, and Bai Yin.
They stood on a huge spar, looking down at Lu Fan.
Lu Fan took the broom and walked towards them quickly with Ling Yao.
"Elder, senior, Young Master Red Dragon Zhu. Why are you calling me?"
Lu Fan stood still under the boulder.
The Fifth Elder turned his head to look at Huolong Zhu, and said, "Say it!"
Huo Longzhu opened his lips slightly, and after the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, he bowed to Lu Fan and said, "Brother Lu Fan, I offended you a lot in the past two days. Please forgive me!"
Lu Fan smiled, and waved his hand while laughing: "Master Huolong Zhu apologizes to me, I can't stand it. I'm just a sweeping sweep of the floor."
The Fifth Elder smiled and said, "Lu Fan, you are not just sweeping the floor. It's not something ordinary people can do just because of your fire-burning elixir yesterday."
Lu Fan smiled without saying a word. Huo Longzhu couldn't stay any longer, and bowed to the Fifth Elder, "Elder, I'm leaving first."
The Fifth Elder looked at Huolong Zhu, with disappointment in his eyes that couldn't be concealed, and sighed: "Go. It's good to practice!"
Huolong Zhu glanced at Lu Fan, and the resentment in his eyes was still like a tide.
Immediately, Fire Dragon Zhu flew away.
Bai Yin looked at Huolongzhu's back and said, "Young heart, he's just a child who hasn't grown up yet."
The Fifth Elder said to Lu Fan: "Lu Fan, you must not hold grudges against him because of this. A strong person should not only cultivate beyond ordinary people, but also have a mind that can tolerate the world."
Lu Fan said: "I won't bear any grudges against him. It's just that Huolong wished young master not to bear any grudges against me."
Bai Yin smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid this is impossible, his heart is far less broad than yours."
The fifth elder waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's not talk about these unhappy things. Lu Fan, put down your broom and come with me. I have something to show you."
Lu Fan slowly put the broom in Lingyao's hand, and said with a smile, "I can't put this thing down after holding it."
Hakuin said: "That means you have reached the edge of enlightenment. What you can't let go of is the Tao, not this broom."
The Fifth Elder nodded and said, "Sweeping away the dust and returning to the original mind is for the Tao. Come on, Lu Fan, I will give you a chance!"
Hearing the word chance, a strange light lit up in Lu Fan's eyes instantly.
The fifth elder walked up the mountain, and Lu Fan immediately followed.
Holding the broom, Lingyao also planned to follow in Lu Fan's footsteps.
But just as she took a step, she was immediately stopped by Hakuin.
"Let them go, your Lu Fan, everything will be fine."
Hakuin said with a smile on his face.
Lingyao stopped in her tracks and said, "Then can you talk to me?"
Bai Yin laughed and said, "Ask casually. Anyway, you, a young warrior, can't ask any profound questions."
Ling Yao smiled and said, "I just want to ask about the family. Senior Bai Yin, you should know a lot about the Huo family. I like listening to stories the most."
. . . . . .
On the mountain, the Fifth Elder's pace was very slow, but Lu Fan couldn't overtake him.
Every step, the Fifth Elder seemed to contain a certain artistic conception, and he said as he walked, "Lu Fan, can you tell me, who are you from?"
Lu Fan replied slowly: "I'm sorry, my teacher has something to say, but it's not enough for outsiders to understand."
The Fifth Elder said: "In this way, you really have a master. Anyway, let me ask another question. Have you ever thought about officially becoming a disciple of my Huo family?"
Lu Fan replied softly: "Fifth Elder. Am I not a member of the Huo Family now?"
The fifth elder smiled lightly and said: "No, you are just a child with a different surname in my Huo family. What I am asking is, are you willing to change your surname to Huo?"
Lu Fan paused slightly, then shook his head and said, "Elder, I'm sorry, I didn't mean that."
The fifth elder was not angry, and continued: "Why? Can you tell me the reason? You have to think about it clearly. If you want, I can report to the Patriarch tomorrow, and choose a good day to give you the Huo surname in public. From then on From now on, you will be the pillar of my Huo family. In the future, it will be easy to choose a leader and join the elders. Maybe, in a few decades, you will be like me, wearing a white robe, leading the Huo family, Admired by the world."
Lu Fan shook his head and said, "Fifth Elder. My surname is Lu, not Huo, and I don't want to be surnamed Huo, surnamed Lu, that's fine!"
The fifth elder stopped, turned his head to look at Lu Fan, and suddenly laughed out loud: "Okay. Good answer. Although I don't know if you are sincere or false, I still want to believe you now."
Lu Fan frowned slightly and said, "What does the elder mean by that?"
The Fifth Elder continued to walk up the mountain and said, "Lu Fan. Your origin is too strange, so I can't help but be more careful. If you just answered that you are willing to be my Huo surname, I will drive you out of the sky without hesitation. Go to Nushan, at most let you get an outer sect deacon to work for my Huo family. Do you know the reason?"
Lu Fan thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Because this is too purposeful, isn't it?"
The Fifth Elder nodded and said: "That's right. This will make me think that you sneaked into my Huo Family with ulterior motives. From what I know, this possibility is small, but it does exist. I This person is very suspicious. As long as there is something suspicious about you, I will be very vigilant. Especially for people like you, who I can't see through. On weekdays, I would not let you come ten steps closer to me within!"
Lu Fan raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Then why didn't you drive me down the mountain, elder?"
The fifth elder said indifferently: "It's very simple. Because you are indeed very talented. I like talented young people. In this world, sometimes a genius is everything. I will never give up a genius easily. Let people."
After a pause, the Fifth Elder continued: "That's why I'm telling you these words today. First, it's really from the bottom of my heart. Second, no matter what purpose you have, come to our Huo Family. I can now I tell you very clearly, if you come here with good intentions, then you will get everything you have in the Huo family. If you have bad intentions, then you will die without a place to die!"
Lu Fan nodded clearly and said, "I understand, Elder."
The Fifth Elder smiled and said: "It's good to understand. You are a smart young man. You are capable, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. I am very optimistic about you. The fire-burning elixir you played in public yesterday is really good, and Yang Yanning is very good." , It’s really hard to see that you just practiced it. With such outstanding talent, it’s definitely not something in the pool, so don’t die for a small profit.”
Lu Fan said: "Small tricks can't be hidden from the eyes of the elders."
The Fifth Elder smiled and nodded, and the two had already reached the door of the main meeting hall.
This is the first time that Lu Fan has seen this majestic hall up close. The flowing light of the five elements attracted Lu Fan in an instant.
In front of the gate of the main meeting hall, there is a huge spar square with a huge "Tao" engraved on it.
The brushwork is powerful and natural, as if there is a secret hidden in it.
The fifth elder said: "I said, I want to give you a chance. Now, the chance is in front of you, and it depends on whether you can grasp it. Two days later, you will fight that Jin Shaoyan. You not only have to win, And we have to win a big victory, and solve the opponent within three moves."
Lu Fan nodded blankly, he didn't seem to listen to the words of the Fifth Elder at all, his attention was all taken away by the words in front of him and the meeting hall.
The fifth elder pressed lightly with his right hand in the void, and in an instant, the words lit up with dazzling light.
Lu Fan walked towards it involuntarily, came to the center of the word "Dao", and slowly sat down cross-legged.
The Fifth Elder said loudly: "Enlightenment once is better than eternity. You still have two days!"
Lu Fan slowly closed his eyes, and his breath sank quickly.
