Chapter 74: Like-Minded, Remember the Silver Coins, Big Brother!
Chapter 74: Like-Minded, Remember the Silver Coins, Big Brother!
"I thought he had an overinflated ego and was destined to die young, most likely a stepping stone for some Heaven's Pride. But who would've thought it's Dragon Aotian?!"
What a character! I couldn't help but exclaim.
Not only did he share the same personality and surname, but even his name was the same!
This was a shocking revelation! Lin Fan couldn't help but exclaim.
Dragon Aotian!
He was a renowned figure, an invincible powerhouse! Among countless protagonist templates, this guy always had a prominent place, and his influence was significant! He was an undeniable force in the history of the Xuanhuan novel.
But...
Among the clan regulations set by Lin Fan, there was no such protagonist.
The reason for this was...
Cough, cough, cough.
It was precisely because he didn't exist in the clan regulations that Xiao Ling'er was filled with confusion.
She even secretly communicated with Liang Danxia, asking about Dragon Aotian or the Dragon family, but how could Liang Danxia know about them? Instead, Fan Jianqiang's expression changed repeatedly, and he couldn't help but look at Lin Fan.
"Master, Dragon Aotian seems to have exceptional talent. How about... finding a way to recruit him?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan's face twitched uncontrollably, as if he was having a muscle spasm.
Xiao Ling'er remained perplexed and looked at Lin Fan.
She remembered clearly, and after comparing, she realized this person didn't meet any of the requirements for accepting disciples.
But why did Fan Jianqiang make such a suggestion?
Lin Fan's face was contorted with confusion, and he turned to Fan Jianqiang, "Are you serious?"
"Why does Master say this?"
Fan Jianqiang feigned ignorance.
Lin Fan glared at him, already knowing what he was up to. He decided to speak honestly, "Such people indeed cannot be overlooked. If we can make use of them, it might be beneficial."
"But..."
"The debuff of such an existence doesn't discriminate between friend and foe!"
"So, you don't want a brain anymore?"
Why didn't I include Dragon Aotian-like protagonists in the clan regulations? It's because of this very reason! Dragon Aotian-like protagonists are indeed badass, and their rise to power is truly exhilarating. They kill men and ghosts without hesitation, and when they take action, they annihilate entire families. Their decisiveness in killing is unparalleled.
In summary, they slaughter every man they meet and add every beauty to their harem!
They dominate and sweep through everything in their path!
How could this not be enjoyable?
But I still want to keep my brain! Dragon Aotian's path is appealing, but the cost is sacrificing your brain, and it's not just about debuffing the enemy. His debuff aura doesn't discriminate between friend and foe!
Fan Jianqiang chuckled, "Master speaks the truth."
They exchanged a glance, both smiling.
Everything was understood without words.
Then, Fan Jianqiang continued, "Master, do you know why I appeared in Hongwu Immortal City that day and why I was fortune-telling outside the city?"
"You, you..."
Lin Fan almost blurted out the whole truth but managed to change his words with a smile.
"Right?"
"Absolutely," Fan Jianqiang affirmed. "Those days, Hongwu Immortal City was an extremely auspicious place for me, and I could meet like-minded people. So, I went there."
"Did you find what you were looking for?"
Lin Fan asked, even though he already knew the answer.
"At that time, Master said something, and it was precisely those words that made me certain that you are the like-minded person I seek!"
"Later, I realized that like-minded people aren't just me; perhaps, there will be many more in the future..."
Xiao Ling'er: "Huh?"
She was completely baffled.
What were her master and senior disciple talking about? Why couldn't she understand a single word? She could comprehend each sentence individually, but when put together, it made no sense to her. This was absurd!
Lin Fan, on the other hand, was quite excited.
Concealment?
Some things were bound to be exposed!
For example, a transmigrator...
It was common knowledge that nine out of ten protagonists in the Xuanhuan genre were transmigrators, so he never intended to hide this fact.
In this world, even the clan regulations are a dead giveaway for time-travelers.
Clearly, this guy, Guo Sheng, is a time-traveler.
And he's already guessed his own origin, so...
Why bother with all the secrecy?
The two of them speaking in 'code' left Xiao Ling'er even more confused.
Seeing this, Fan Jianqiang couldn't help but shrug and chuckle lightly, "It seems, Senior Sister, you aren't?"
"Mhm," Lin Fan nodded.
Not a time-traveler, but that doesn't mean future achievements will be low, right?
"The future Flame Emperor..."
Fan Jianqiang sighed.
Xiao Ling'er was speechless.
"Master, Junior Brother, what are you two talking about?"
She was baffled.
Even with her exceptional intelligence since childhood, she couldn't make sense of it at this moment.
"Hahaha." Lin Fan laughed, "It's indescribable, indescribable."
"Senior Sister, it's not that we don't want to tell you, but some things are indeed hard for you to comprehend at the moment. Even if we explain, you'll still be filled with doubts," Fan Jianqiang shook his head lightly.
At this moment, his heart was also filled with excitement.
In ancient times, those poets living alone in foreign lands as strangers, still managed to create timeless masterpieces.
Lin Fan and Fan Jianqiang were 'alone in a different world', at least until they met each other, and their perspectives changed.
How lonely must that have been? Moreover, this world is so dangerous?
Precisely because of this, after Lin Fan discovered this was a super-gigantic Xuanhuan world, he thought of 'summoning' the protagonist.
Fortunately, luck was on his side.
Now, he had found two of them.
One of them was even a 'fellow townsman'.
His mood was naturally elated.
"Let's exchange a secret code."
Lin Fan's tone shifted, "Imperial Palace Elixir Wine plus a great hammer minus a small hammer equals...?"
"Master, if I can't answer this, am I not even worth fifty thousand spirit stones?"
"Of course, it equals a pair of crutches."
Fan Jianqiang laughed heartily.
Many things didn't need to be spelled out completely; this was enough.
It was already sufficient for both sides to thoroughly confirm each other's identities as fellow townsmen. The only difference was that Lin Fan knew Fan Jianqiang was the 'Guo Sheng Template', but Fan Jianqiang couldn't understand Lin Fan.
"This... isn't this one of the questions from the clan regulations?"
Xiao Ling'er finally understood a bit, "Isn't this one of the three questions from the clan regulations?"
In the clan regulations, aside from those peculiar conditions, there were also three questions.
The first question was this one, and the other two were music-related.
The second question: Sing the 'March of the Volunteers', and... the third question: I'll say it, you sing it.
The third question was further divided into three sub-questions: "Vast Horizon, My Love", "Wumeng Mountain Linked to Mountains Beyond", and "On Your Heart, Soaring Free".
According to the clan regulations, even if one couldn't meet the other conditions, as long as they could answer these three questions, they could still join the Moonseizing Sect as inner sect disciples!
Xiao Ling'er didn't understand the significance of these rules.
But Lin Fan was very clear.
In this day and age, which time-traveler wasn't a protagonist? Even if not the protagonist, they'd still have some kind of cheat!
As for why these questions were set, it was also simple.
To weed out those with wolfish hearts and dog-like lungs.
Watching the Spring Festival Gala and listening to the Phoenix Legend didn't necessarily make one a good person, but if they couldn't even sing the national anthem, hmph...
Moreover, if they were truly 'one of us', how could they not even connect 'Wumeng Mountain'?
But...
When Xiao Ling'er spoke, it was now Fan Jianqiang's turn to be confused.
