Chapter 78: Going down the mountain to the village to do the task
"There is another point, which is equally important." Lu Chuan said again.
"What?" Shen Lang asked.
"That's right, that family, just protect them. Don't contact them, don't let them know that you have something to do with me, and don't let them come to me.
If you let them see me, I can only regretfully say that this mission failed."
"No problem." Shen Lang didn't ask why, and agreed.
Not everything needs to be curious. Sometimes curiosity cannot bring good luck, but it can only bring danger.
"However, I have a problem," said Shen Lang.
Lu Chuan looked calm, "You ask."
"Since you are a protector, why don't you look for a senior magician, but a Muggle magician like me?"
Lu Chuan replied:
"If I were looking for senior magicians, I would have to be wary of them, and I would be tired.
The Muggle Magician is different. His strength is limited and there are people from the Magic Management Bureau nearby to control the overall situation, so I don’t need to be distracted to be wary of it.
And it would be even better to find a magician with good strength and good character among the Muggle magicians."
"So you found me?"
"Um."
Shen Lang actually didn't know the reason why Lu Chuan chose a Muggle magician instead of a senior magician. It was just that he wanted to ask, which would enhance their trust.
If he didn't ask, Lu Chuan might be on guard against him.
"Since that's the case, I will not let you down, and I will protect them with all my heart."
"That's good.
I have prepared your reward, but I will give it to you later.
If I successfully go down the mountain, I will hand it over to you personally. If I can't go down the mountain, the local Magic Management Bureau will also hand it over to you, don't worry."
"clear."
...
When Xiaole finished the fried chicken and was happily playing with his cell phone, the old abbot entered the room, snatched the phone, and beat the little boy.
"Stop hitting, dad! Ouch!"
"Stop hitting, dad! I was wrong! Ouch! Ouch!"
"Are you still stealing your mother's cell phone?" The old abbot kept asking.
"I won't take it anymore! I won't take it anymore! Ouch!"
"Then will you do your homework honestly for me? Ge, I only wrote a page in an afternoon. Is it embarrassing to say it out!"
"Write, write, I'll write it right away! How can I write if you hit me hurt? Stop hitting me!"
The old man at the host stopped hearing this.
The little boy Xiaole started to do his homework honestly.
Shen Lang was also happy when he saw this scene.
If he also let the little skeleton do his homework in the future, he would not let her watch cartoons if he couldn't write it out. This would probably work better than beating her.
Speaking of which, I told the little skeleton last night that I was going out for three or four days, but the little guy didn't respond at all, which really made him sad.
...
When it was time for dinner, the abbot took Xiaole down the mountain to have dinner, and Shen Lang followed him down the mountain, while Lu Chuan stayed in the temple on the mountain to cook and eat alone.
Shen Lang asked if he could have a meal with him, but Lu Chuan refused, saying that he was used to eating alone, and he would not be able to adapt to adding someone else. Moreover, he was vegetarian, which might not be in line with Shen Lang's appetite.
Seeing that he refused, Shen Lang had no choice but to go down the mountain.
Along the cement road at the entrance of Puji Temple, Shen Lang followed the old man in charge and his youngest son Xiaole down the mountain.
Along the way, the old man in charge kept talking to his youngest son about learning issues, and he was having a lot of fun, but his son was absent-minded and didn't listen at all.
Shen Lang looked at the father and son with a huge age gap and was a little confused. How old should this old man in the host have to be born? Is his wife really so capable?
After chatting, Shen Lang finally realized that the old man on the host had a wife, but he passed away, leaving only one son and one daughter, while his current wife is very young and gave birth to Xiaole, the son for him.
When the old host said this, he was very proud. Where can anyone in this village be as old as himself and still have children! And his baby is so smart!
The old man in charge looked proud, both for himself and for his youngest son.
Shen Lang made compliments and envy at the right time, which made the old host even happier. He found some topics of age to talk to Xiaole, and as a result, Xiaole also began to get close to him.
Very good, having a good relationship with his protection goals will also be very beneficial to his next work.
This mission is said to be three days, but it is very likely that Lu Chuan will have to finish the trouble, otherwise he will probably not get the reward. Isn’t this a waste of time? So he must treat the mission to snack.
After entering the village, the old host kept greeting the people in the village, and the little boy Xiaole also kept greeting the children he knew. The scene was very lively.
Apart from the identity of the host of the temple on the mountain, the old man in charge is no different from the other people in the village. They are farmers who need to farm, so there is naturally no barrier between them.
Moreover, this temple on the mountain has attracted many tourists from nearby cities and has also brought a lot of customers to their farm stay business, so they are naturally happy.
When Shen Lang saw this scene, he quickly greeted the old man on the host and wanted to leave alone. He still remembered Lu Chuan's other request, which was that the family could not let him know about his relationship with Lu Chuan.
Now if he leaves with the old host, once the family finds Lu Chuan hiding in the temple, he will definitely find the host's house, so that he will not fulfill Lu Chuan's request.
Moreover, the family lived in a farmhouse in the village. In order to have reason to approach and protect them, it would be better for Shen Lang to live in a farmhouse.
After all, he is not familiar with the old man who hosted it, and it is impossible to live in his house for a few days. It is better to stay in a farmhouse from the beginning.
"Xiao Shen, why are you leaving by yourself? Go to my house for a meal. Although my house is simple, it is made by my own home after all, and it is healthy!" The old host enthusiastically tried to keep Shen Lang.
"No, thank you, the host, but I have other important things, I'm afraid I can't bother you."
"It's important? It's very urgent?" The old man on the host thought that Shen Lang was just a ruling statement and was embarrassed to go to his house.
“It’s very urgent.”
"Okay." Seeing that Shen Lang was firm in his attitude, the old host did not force him anymore.
"See you goodbye, host, Xiaole."
"goodbye."
"Goodbye, uncle!"
Shen Lang separated from the host Xiaole, the old man in charge, and found another way to the farmhouse where the family lived.
...
“Jia Jia Farmhouse”
"arrive."
Shen Lang went straight in.
"Hey! Brother, are you here to play?" A middle-aged man immediately trotted over to greet him, very enthusiastic.
This middle-aged man also looks like a typical farmer, but he is a little more shrewd than ordinary farmers.
"Yeah, come and play."
"How many days will you play?"
"Let's play for three days first, just continue playing if you're fun."
"Okay! Come on, good brother, let me introduce to you the characteristics of our farmhouse." The middle-aged man became even more enthusiastic.
Shen Lang followed the boss to visit the entire farmhouse. After visiting, he easily paid the money and got a key to the room.
"Brother, please rest first. I'll prepare the meal for you now. Just wait and taste the characteristics of our place, and you'll be satisfied with it!"
"Then thank you brother."
Shen Lang is indeed very satisfied.
Naturally, we can't help but meet other guests who come to the farmhouse to have fun. When we were shopping with the boss, Shen Lang inadvertently encountered the target he wanted to protect.
