Chapter 1100 Preliminary understanding
Du Xingyu asked for wine twice more before giving up. It's still due to the rules of Fuxiang Tower - Fuxiang drink is provided on the 15th day of every month, and each person is limited to one pot.
Lin Fan didn't think it was a good drink, but it didn't stop some people from enjoying it. It’s hard to say whether it’s the wine that’s good or the effect of hunger marketing.
Shen Xiuyuan also saw Du Xingyu's purpose and stayed there after a few drinks. Du Xingyu happily thanked him and said that if they hadn't come, he wouldn't have been able to drink four pots at a time.
Yunshan Mansion is a big city with a prosperous economy, and there are several Daxianmen offices stationed there. There are countless overt and covert exchanges of interests, which invisibly improves the public security order in the city.
Ordinary people are afraid of offending the Immortal Sect unintentionally, but the Immortal Sect members maintain their own identity and disdain to use their power to bully others. Of course, he also had concerns about other sects in the city, fearing that he would cause trouble to the sect and make himself miserable.
All in all, the final result is pleasing to see. Governor Yunshan's cell has been empty all year round. If the jailers had not been organized, they would have been idle long ago and lost their jobs.
The way Du Xingyu was drunk and ready for everything reminded Lin Fan of Antonio.
I don’t know what’s going on with that guy. I think he’ll be safe and sound with his senior brother, but I’m afraid it won’t be easy.
"Lin Fan? Little Lin Fan?" Du Xingyu saw Lin Ding staring at him and waved his hand in front of her eyes.
Lin Fan only felt something approaching, and clamped his chopsticks firmly on Du Xingyu's palm.
Mu Jingjing raised her head with bright eyes and pursed her mouth vigorously.
Shen Xiuyuan hurriedly stretched out his hand, but he couldn't really touch Lin Fan, so he could only persuade: "Junior sister Lin..."
This was the first time that Du Xingyu had his hand pinched with chopsticks. He was stunned and subconsciously pulled out his hand, but found that he couldn't pull it out. No matter how hard he tried, the pair of thin wooden chopsticks remained motionless...
He looked at Lin Fan seriously. Before his mental activities had fully begun, Lin Fan accepted the advice and put away his chopsticks.
"Sorry," she put down her chopsticks calmly, "I didn't mean to."
Before Du Xingyu could take it, the opponent suddenly withdrew his hand, leaned back, and almost fell over. His toes hooked the edge of the table in time to stop his castration.
But even if the table made of ordinary materials was filled with dishes, it couldn't withstand his sudden tug, and the entire table slid towards Du Xingyu.
Seeing that the table was about to be overturned and the dishes were destroyed, Shen Xiuyuan hurriedly pressed the corners of the table with both hands.
Du Xingyu reacted quickly and knew something was wrong. He placed one arm on the ground on one side of his body and loosened his feet hooked on the edge of the table.
The dishes on the table clinked and some soup was spilled, but the consequences were not too bad.
"Hey!" Du Xingyu pushed hard and turned over to sit up.
All this happened in an instant, and he couldn't cultivate his skills that fast. If he is really hit by a table of dishes, the dignity of the senior brother will definitely not be preserved. As a disciple of the Immortal Sect, he will be humiliated.
Shen Xiuyuan still kept his hands on the table and asked him with concern, "Are you okay?"
Lin Fan's arms naturally drooped and he looked at the dishes on the table expressionlessly. If Du Xingyu hadn't just seen her feet pressing against the opposite table leg from below, he would have been deceived by her appearance.
As for Mu Jingjing...she was holding a plate of food and eating happily without even looking at Du Xingyu. She really didn't care about his life or death.
"It's bad, thank you, brothers and sisters, for saving me from the fire and water." Du Xingyu scratched his head with a smile, raised his glass and offered a toast. "I did it, you can do whatever you want."
Putting down the wine glass, Du Xingyu lowered his eyes with a smile. This time I really had a preliminary understanding of everyone's temperament and strength.
In the following time, Du Xingyu didn't make any fuss and kept discussing news in the mortal world with Shen Xiuyuan.
Before Shen Xiuyuan went out, he went to the logistics department to pick up a lot of tasks. Most of them were suitable for the two junior sisters to practice, and some were more difficult, which he planned to complete alone.
The last time he went down the mountain was seven or eight years ago, so his understanding of the mortal world was naturally not as good as that of Du Xingyu, who had been staying abroad recently. In order to ensure that the junior sisters succeed in the first battle, it is natural to ask more carefully. Du Xingyu also really understands. His questioning of Shen Xiuyuan was almost omniscient and could be extended. Like a living know-it-all.
Lin Fan had already sketched out many fragmentary pictures from his answers, like pieces of a world puzzle, and his understanding of the world of Perun had greatly increased.
Mu Jingjing also stopped using his chopsticks and listened quietly.
In fact, Du Xingyu is quite good, except that he doesn't fit the name of "Xiaoyao Gongzi".
Although he is a little too undisciplined, not too serious, and sometimes a little glib and pretends to be smart, his close master, Elder Yifeng, also has the same temperament.
The disciple is like the master, there is nothing wrong with him.
And although he gave people the impression of being dishonest and boastful, when the meal was over, Du Xingyu took the initiative to pay the bill.
The way he threw the money to the waiter so that he didn't have to look for it was really a bit of a gentleman's coolness.
Shen Xiuyuan had just taken out his wallet at that time, but before he could get involved, Du Xingyu held his hand down.
"Senior brother," he said, "it is more convenient to settle accounts with gold and silver in this world. Although spiritual stones can be redeemed, the redemption is too much waste. You haven't had time to redeem the spiritual stones, have you?"
All settlements within the sect are made with spirit stones, so the training funds Chengkong prepared for Shen Xiuyuan are naturally spirit stones. Generally, after disciples gain experience, they will exchange it for gold and silver at the sect office before walking in the world.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Shen Xiuyuan still had some gold and silver left from his last experience, and the spirit stones could indeed be circulated, so he didn't care so much about redeeming the wasted bits. In order to bring the junior sisters to see more of the world, I took them directly out of the teleportation array in Yunshan Fucheng.
When passing by Fuxiang Building, Lin Fan and Mu Jingjing looked inside, so they took their junior sister in first to eat.
Shen Xiuyuan is a careful and good senior brother, but compared with Du Xingyu, he seems to be a little incompetent in general affairs. He didn't care about the consumption of spiritual stones because he had no shortage of them, but considering the establishment of the avenue for his two junior sisters, he decided to humbly accept Du Xingyu's suggestion and not waste it at will.
The first stop at Yunshan Mansion was to meet Du Xingyu.
Du Xingyu happened to be near Yunshan Mansion when he received the order from the sect. He rushed all the way, hurrying and taking his time to get back.
He took three people with him and introduced them all the way like a landlord. Whatever was delicious, he immediately bought it for everyone to eat. What's fun, he also gives one to each person without landing. He even gave Lin Fan and Mu Jingjing a lot of little things that girls liked when they passed by a makeup and jewelry stall.
After eating and drinking all the way, when they arrived at the door of the office, although Mu Jingjing still didn't give Du Xingyu any good face, she no longer "hummed" him at all times like before.
Compared with Du Xingyu, Shen Xiuyuan, who had always been modest and attentive before, was no longer so down-to-earth, and his sense of presence suddenly weakened.
Lin Fan observed the whole journey. Du Xingyu has no airs and can chat with anyone. A few words can make ordinary people put down their guard and regard him as one of their own.
He can talk about life with street vendors, business with shopkeepers, superior officers with soldiers, and children with women...
Although it may seem like a trivial matter, Du Xingyu's ability to cater to everyone's needs requires a huge reserve of knowledge and extremely high emotional intelligence.
Don’t forget, he is a disciple of the Immortal Sect. The first sect, the first Dharma cultivation, half-step Mahayana, the direct disciple of Elder Yi Feng.
He has a high level of capital, but he keeps his profile very low, even lower than many people in the world, and hangs out in the market all day long.
Lin Fan had a more intuitive understanding of Du Xingyu's carefree life, and at the same time he became more curious.
The disciples at the door of the office had already seen them and quickly went in to report the news. When they stepped onto the steps, they happened to meet the steward who came out to greet them.
"Brothers and sisters..." The middle-aged man had already raised his fist in a fist salute. When he saw Lin Fan, his smile froze, "It's...Senior Sister Lin..."
Lin Fan took a closer look and saw that it was the middle-aged man who had tested her spirit in the first place.
