Seeking Immortality

"So, how much should this hard work fee be?" Xu Qingfan asked with a faint smile.

Seeing Xu Qingfan's calm and unruffled look, Zhang Long suddenly felt a little uneasy, but before Zhang Long could figure out what was wrong, the bald man next to him had already shouted: "How much money do you have on you, just give our boss as hard work fee."

"Nothing left?" Xu Qingfan asked softly.

Seeing Xu Qingfan's cold look, Zhang Long felt more and more uneasy. The expression of this "Yang Gu" in front of him was too calm, as if he was fearless. But before Zhang Long said anything, the bald man interrupted and said: "Of course nothing left!"

"Then I'm relieved." Xu Qingfan said after a smile.

"What are you relieved about?" Zhang Long asked subconsciously.

"Since you are so ruthless, I won't feel guilty if I rob you of all your money." Xu Qingfan said lightly.

"Just you?" The bald man said in a mocking tone, but before he finished speaking, the mockery in his eyes suddenly turned into fear. Xu Qingfan, who was in front of him, suddenly disappeared, and then suddenly appeared in front of him again. Facing Xu Qingfan who suddenly appeared in front of him, the bald man didn't react at all, and was gently knocked on his bald head by Xu Qingfan.

"Dong~~" A crisp knocking sound rang out, just like a small hammer hitting a wooden fish, and then this big man who was several times bigger than Xu Qingfan was completely unconscious, without any resistance.

After knocking the bald man unconscious, Xu Qingfan's figure did not pause at all. Everyone on the field saw that his figure turned into several afterimages, as if he could be transformed outside his body. Then the crisp knocking sounds rang out one after another, and these people only felt that their eyes were black, and then they knew nothing.

After knocking all the big men on the field unconscious, Xu Qingfan flashed back to where he had just stood. If we ignore the big men lying on the ground, it seems that nothing has happened.

Just like that, without the noise of the big men, the field became extremely quiet for a while, and only Xu Qingfan stood there quietly, smiling at the stunned Zhang Long.

It must be said that although Zhang Long is a gangster, he left a good impression on Xu Qingfan during his time as a tour guide, so Xu Qingfan did not attack him just now

"Okay, now leave all the money you have." Looking at Zhang Long's unbelievable look, Xu Qingfan smiled faintly.

...

There is a saying in the world, "With money in hand, there is no panic in the heart." Although Xu Qingfan is a cultivator, he now deeply understands this sentence.

When he first arrived in Gushan Town, Xu Qingfan was curious about everything, especially the strange things sold on the street. But because he didn't have any worldly money, he could only be a bystander silently. But now that he has money, Xu Qingfan can buy those things he is curious about and observe and play with them carefully. For example, the candy man he had just snatched from a child.

So passers-by were shocked to find that the nobleman who had been curiously looking around on the street just now was now wandering around the street with a candy man in his left hand, a rattle in his right hand, and a monkey mask on his face.

Or, the lively atmosphere of Gushan Town brought out the last bit of innocence in Xu Qingfan's heart.

The money he had just snatched from those hooligans was as much as dozens of taels of silver. According to the prices Xu Qingfan had learned when he was buying things just now, this money was enough for ordinary people to live a carefree life for several months. It was enough for Xu Qingfan to experience the small town style of the prosperous Middle-earth.

"How long are you going to follow me?" Xu Qingfan suddenly stopped, turned his head and looked at Zhang Long who had been following him, frowning and asked.

Seeing Xu Qingfan suddenly stop and turn around to look at him with a frown, Zhang Long was startled. Then he walked to Xu Qingfan hesitantly and said with a forced smile: "I am your tour guide. You haven't had enough fun in Gushan Town yet. How can I not follow you?"

Hearing Zhang Long's words, Xu Qingfan couldn't help but feel a little funny. He found that Zhang Long was really thick-skinned, so he asked with a smile: "Wait until I have enough fun before you ask me for hard work fees?"

"I dare not, I am honored to be your tour guide. How dare I ask for your hard work fees." Hearing Xu Qingfan's joke, Zhang Long waved his hand quickly.

Although he felt that Zhang Long's humble attitude must have some purpose, Xu Qingfan didn't think that a mortal would pose any threat to him, and Xu Qingfan also felt that although playing alone was casual, it was not enough to have enough fun, so he smiled and said: "Since you want to follow, then follow."

"Okay~!" Zhang Long said happily after hearing Xu Qingfan's words.

After getting Xu Qingfan's permission, Zhang Long came to Xu Qingfan again and acted as a tour guide for Xu Qingfan again, pointing and chatting, as if nothing had happened just now.

"Sir, it's noon now, are we going to eat?" Zhang Long suddenly asked after playing for a while.

"Okay." Xu Qingfan nodded. Although Xu Qingfan had already entered a state of not eating worldly fireworks, he had longed for the food of the prosperous Middle-earth since he was a child, so he decided to try it.

"Wanhe Tower" is a restaurant with exquisite decoration. The reason why it is called Wanhe Tower is not because there are ten thousand cranes there, but because the owner of the restaurant is named Wan Minghe. According to Zhang Long, the dishes in this restaurant are the best in Gushan Town, especially the sake sold there is the best in Gushan.

After arriving at Wanhe Tower, Xu Qingfan and Zhang Long chose a seat by the window on the second floor. After ordering a few of the signature dishes, they sat upstairs and began to watch the scenery. Zhang Long kept telling Xu Qingfan some interesting anecdotes about Gushan Town.

Looking at the bustling flow of people downstairs, the hawkers and women arguing over the price of vegetables, and the waiters in each store competing to greet the customers, Xu Qingfan suddenly realized that at this moment, his identity as a cultivator was extremely real. No longer worried about survival, no longer running for money, but do immortal cultivators really live a more carefree life than ordinary people? Xu Qingfan couldn't help but shook his head.

"Zhang Long, tell me, what do you want me to do for you?" Xu Qingfan suddenly looked away from the scenery outside the window, interrupted Zhang Long's eloquent introduction, and asked lightly.

"Young Master, do you know everything?" Zhang Long asked, dumbfounded.

"I don't know anything. I just think that you are so respectful to me, not just to get back the dozens of taels of silver that I took from you, right?" Xu Qingfan shook his head and said with a faint smile.

Looking at Xu Qingfan's calm expression, Zhang Long hesitated for a long time and finally his eyes became firm. He asked Xu Qingfan in a deep voice: "Master, are you a martial arts master?"

Hearing Zhang Long's words, Xu Qingfan smiled slightly and couldn't help but think of his misunderstanding of Lu Huayan's identity when he first met him, so he said lightly: "That's right."

"Son, can you teach me martial arts? I want to take you as my teacher." After hearing Xu Qingfan's words, Zhang Long's eyes became extremely eager and he asked.

"Oh? Why do you want to learn martial arts? To collect more hard work?" Xu Qingfan asked with a smile.

"No, I want revenge!" After hearing Xu Qingfan's words, Zhang Long's expression became solemn and he said with hatred.

Looking at Zhang Long's firm and sad expression when he spoke, Xu Qingfan was suddenly in a trance, as if he had seen himself decades ago. When he was about to become Lu Huayan's teacher, were his eyes still so firm and sad?

Seeing Xu Qingfan's expression become dazed, Zhang Long couldn't help but become anxious, thinking that Xu Qingfan didn't want to teach him martial arts. Regardless of everyone's surprised looks, he suddenly knelt down in front of Xu Qingfan and said loudly: "Master, please teach me martial arts, disciple." I will never take this as an evil deed, and from now on I will serve my master as a cow and a horse without any complaints.”

"Get up and talk." Xu Qingfan looked at the surprised eyes of everyone upstairs looking at him. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed and quickly said to Zhang Long.

As he said that, Zhang Long couldn't help resisting, and directly pulled him up and pushed him to his seat, and then said: "Tell me, what is going on? If what you say is reasonable, I can help you, but before you become a disciple, Don’t mention it anymore.”

Hearing Xu Qingfan's words, Zhang Long couldn't help but feel anxious. Just when he was about to say something, an arrogant voice suddenly came from downstairs.

"Boy, my young master has reserved the second floor today for a banquet to honor Master Li Xian. You can kick out all these guests."

Hearing this arrogant voice, Xu Qingfan couldn't help but frown slightly. He turned around and saw a group of people dressed like servants supporting two people with different appearances walking upstairs. The young one among them looked quite handsome, but unfortunately his eyes were slender and looked a little sinister. His face was pale, his steps were sloppy, and he looked like he was overindulging in lust. It was probably the young master in the voice just now. The other person has long white hair, a Taoist robe, and an air of Taoist immortality. He is obviously the so-called worshiper of Immortal Li.

What surprised Xu Qingfan was that Immortal Master Li actually had slight spiritual energy fluctuations on his body. Although he looked like he was only in the late stage of Qi refining, he was actually an immortal cultivator.

You must know that immortal cultivators will never enter the secular world unless they have no choice. Disciples in the Qi refining and bigu stages generally deal with secular affairs in various sects, while those in the spiritual silence stage and above are basically busy practicing in seclusion. Therefore, most of the so-called "immortal masters" and "old gods" in the world are just liars who know a few tricks. Moreover, the strength of immortal cultivators is undoubtedly very powerful compared with secular people. In order not to destroy the balance of forces among secular people, all major cultivating sects also restrict their disciples from intervening in secular battles, let alone fighting with secular people. Got in touch. But I don't know why this "Master Li" ignored the agreement of the immortal world and even became a "consecration".

At the same time, Xu Qingfan noticed that when Zhang Long saw the young man, an extremely strong look of hatred flashed in his eyes.
