Chapter 0005: The Young Man with the Surname Bai
Those who have practiced since childhood, generally at Lin Fan's age, being able to become a lay practitioner is already considered fortunate; this young man before me may very well be one of them
Lin Fan was taken aback for a moment; how could he not know about the Du family? The Du family is a large enterprise in Qingcheng City, and they are among the top five wealthy families in Qingcheng City.
Is it possible to invite the person with the surname Bai to go back for a meal
The young man with the surname Bai cast a cold glance at Lin Fan, ignoring him.
In the direction that Lin Fan was looking, there stood a boy of about sixteen or seventeen years old, similar in age to himself. This boy had an arrogant expression, disdainfully observing the fortune-tellers by the roadside.
Only those referred to as "Jushi" can be considered truly qualified as practitioners of the Way
The young man with the surname Bai got out of the car without saying a word, and Lin Fan hurriedly followed him.
Thinking of this, Du Yu shook his head and thought, once we arrive at the destination, I will let this kid leave.
The young man with the surname Bai instantly ran inside, and Du Yu could not manage Lin Fan, so he followed him into the building
The young man also sensed Lin Fan's gaze; he slightly furrowed his brows and cast a somewhat unfriendly look in Lin Fan's direction. In his eyes, there was a hint of provocation, as if he disliked being stared at in such a manner.
The middle-aged man hurriedly shook his head: "I dare not, it is merely that the old gentleman instructed it so."
Du Yu respectfully led the young boy with the surname Bai inside, while Lin Fan followed behind
Above the lay practitioners are the Daoist priests, who, upon reaching the level of a Daoist priest, are almost capable of governing a region
Previously, I had no choice but to prepare to set up a stall by the roadside, not expecting that the Du family would hire someone.
Suddenly, the sound of people's exclamations came from inside, followed by the sound of screams.
Lin Fan felt a twinge of curiosity and then walked forward. A fortune teller nearby saw Lin Fan approaching and hurriedly warned him, "Young man, are you willing to risk your life for money? Do you know who that is? That is the Du family, and this is Du Yu, the future heir of the Du family. He is not so easily fooled."
After getting into the car, Lin Fan curiously examined this luxury vehicle, which was estimated to be worth at least two to three million. Lin Fan had never been in such an expensive car before
The car swiftly came to a gradual stop at the entrance of this villa
The middle-aged man wiped the sweat from his forehead, clearly afraid of offending the young man with the surname Bai. He looked up and shouted, "Come, a few capable ones, follow me!"
The highest rank is seven, and the lowest rank is one
"Not mistaken." Lin Fan smiled faintly, opened the car door, and got in. Du Yu felt that this guy was being ridiculous and wanted to drive him away, but he, Du Yu, was the successor of the Du family in the future
Those fortune tellers on the street are all seasoned veterans; there are no fools among them. They know that although the Du family is wealthy, they are not easy to deceive, and no one dares to approach them casually
Lin Fan wore a faint smile on his face: "What you can do, I believe I can do as well"
The young man with the surname Bai snorted coldly: "Do you know what we are here for?"
Lin Fan is still wearing a school uniform
Virtue is akin to seeing a stunning beauty after taking medicine
"Then let's hurry up," said the young man with the surname Bai, somewhat impatiently, before getting into the car
Moreover, his maternal uncle, Huang Zhongshi, is a minor leader within the Du family enterprise
The young man arrogantly nodded and walked towards the car. Subsequently, the middle-aged man said, "Mr. Bai, the old master instructed me that since you are here, you should invite a few more masters over, better safe than sorry"
"Are you comparing yourself to Mr. Bai?" Du Yu's expression turned awkward; he had to bring a little brat to meet the old master. Wouldn't the old master be furious? Could he still trust his ability to get things done in the future?
Hello, my name is Lin Fan. Lin Fan greeted the boy with the surname Bai who was standing nearby
On the vehicle, a middle-aged man in his forties opened the door and stepped out. He was dressed in a suit and exuded an exceptional demeanor
Lin Fan was certainly curious and asked Xuan Daozi, but Xuan Daozi stated that his current cultivation level was not yet qualified to understand that stage
"Mr. Bai, I apologize for the long wait," said the middle-aged man with a hint of respect to the young man before him
Indeed, the old master's instructions are superfluous; the Bai family has already been called upon to take action, so there is no need to seek further expertise.
What could be the reason for the Du family to invite a layperson
Lin Fan smiled at him for a moment, then shook his head and continued to browse.
While thinking about these things, the car soon arrived at the suburbs outside Qingcheng City
And that young man stood still, as if waiting for something
Du Yu frowned and glanced around. On this street, any random old Taoist priest seemed to possess a more ethereal and transcendent demeanor than Lin Fan.
Before long, a Mercedes-Maybach drove onto the street, and the people on Shen Gun Street all stared with wide eyes, nearly drooling in excitement
Regardless of whether one is a lay practitioner, a Daoist priest, or a true person, there are a total of seven ranks
Lin Fan, upon seeing this, curled his lips; he followed along, certainly not purely out of curiosity
With these thoughts in mind, Lin Fan had already arrived in front of Du Yu
Naturally, it is a challenging issue that has arisen
As for the true person, Xuan Daozi has never mentioned it to himself
It is somewhat interesting; I thought I would be able to rest for a while after returning, but unexpectedly, I encountered a layperson so soon, albeit just a first-class layperson
Above the Daoist priest is the True Person. Upon reaching the strength of the True Person, one is already qualified to establish a sect and create a school of their own
Du Yu frowned as he looked at Lin Fan, who was wearing a school uniform: "Little brother, you seem to be in the wrong place, don't you?"
Although it is somewhat shameless, Lin Fan has to admit that he is a genius. That old fellow Xuandaozi did not misjudge him after all.
I am here to help" Lin Fan said
Before Lin Fan followed Xuandaozi to learn the Dao, he was a well-rounded young man with strong moral integrity, firmly believing in science. However, a year of following Xuandaozi completely overturned his worldview
The young man with the surname Bai said coldly, "What? Do you not trust our Bai family?"
Having spoken, he also walked inside.
One must act on their words when outside; can I really go back on what I just said and drive this kid away now?
Du Family
Du Yu then remembered that there was a little kid following behind, and he said: "Little friend, I will have someone take you back."
Du Yu shuddered all over, and a trace of fear appeared on his face: "It’s over."
Those who study the Dao are subject to a strict hierarchy, a tradition that has developed over thousands of years in Daoism. Those who can initially deal with demons and monsters are referred to as "Jushi".
In this world, there are countless demons lurking in the shadows, and it is the practitioners of the Dao who suppress and deal with these demons
By a lake, a grand villa has been constructed. Although this villa is situated in the suburbs, it is surrounded by numerous security personnel patrolling the area, maintaining a strict level of vigilance
Lin Fan said somewhat speechlessly: "Isn't it just a minor demon causing trouble? Is it really necessary to be this flustered?"
but rather to make money
Lin Fan is now at the realm of a third-grade scholar. Of course, do not underestimate this, as there are countless sects and noble families in this world.
