Hongmeng Refinement of Shinto

() Within the Qin Mansion.

Qin Hao quickly led Lin Fan to an exquisite small courtyard, and said, "Brother Lin Fan, this is the residence I arranged for you, I hope you are satisfied!"

The area of ​​the small courtyard is not very large, about [-] square meters. A two-story exquisite attic stands in the small courtyard. An exquisite pavilion is built in the most obvious position in the yard before the attic. There is a stone table and four stone chairs in the gazebo.

In addition, a few willow trees were planted in the small yard. The long catkins hung down and fluttered gently with the breeze. The environment is very beautiful!

"Not bad! The environment here is very good, I like it, and here it is!" Lin Fan smiled slightly, very satisfied with the residence Qin Hao arranged for him.

"Brother Lin Fan, as long as you are satisfied, since that's the case, brother Lin Fan, you should take a good rest, I want to say goodbye! I'll take you to some interesting places in the city tomorrow."

Seeing that Lin Fan was very satisfied with the residence he had arranged for him, Qin Hao smiled and said goodbye and left.

After Qin Hao and Lin Fan said goodbye, they didn't return to their room immediately, but turned around and came to a simple attic in the Qin Mansion.

Walking to a room, Qin Hao gently knocked on the door.

"Is it Hao'er? Come in!" A deep voice came from the room.

"It's me! Father, I'm coming in!"

Qin Hao responded, then opened the door and entered.

I saw that the furnishings in the room were very simple, a small wooden table; an oil lamp was placed on the table, and the light from the oil lamp emanated from the oil lamp, but it illuminated the whole room strangely; several bookshelves were tightly packed Against the wall, the bookshelves are filled with books.

This is a study room.

A middle-aged man who looked to be in his 40s was sitting at the desk, holding a book in his hand and reading it with gusto. Even Qin Hao opened the door and came in without looking up.

"Hao'er, I heard that you brought a friend back?" Before Qin Hao could speak, the middle-aged man spoke first.

"Yes!" Qin Hao didn't hide anything. He knew that although his father rarely left this room, he knew everything that happened in Qinhuai City. Maybe I can hide it from my father.

The middle-aged man is Qin Hao's father, the current head of the Qin family, Qin Zhaotian.

"Who is that young man? What is the purpose of coming here?" Qin Zhaotian asked lightly.

"His name is Lin Fan. According to him, he comes from a very far away place. There is no clear purpose for coming here. It seems that he just wants to see some scenery of the Great Qin Empire." Qin Hao said that he had obtained information from Lin Fan. Speak up.

"Come from a far away place, there is no purpose, just to see the scenery." Qin Zhaotian said in a low voice, his tone was full of doubts. "Hao'er, are you sure he won't harm our Qin family?"

"Father, before I say whether he is bad for our Qin family, I want to tell my father some good news! Father, please look up at me!" Qin Hao couldn't hide the excitement in his heart.

"What good news?" Qin Zhaotian looked up at Qin Hao, his eyes suddenly froze, and his voice was a little excited: "Hao'er, you have broken through to the third level of innate? When did you break through? Shouldn't it take a while?" Did it break through?"

"Yes! Father, I have already broken through to the third innate level, and my cultivation is very solid." Qin Hao said with a smile, "The reason why I broke through to the third innate level so quickly is thanks to Brother Lin Fan!"

"How do you say that?" Qin Zhaotian couldn't help asking curiously.

"Father, you may not believe it! I broke through after drinking half a glass of wine that Brother Lin Fan gave me! The wine is so miraculous, it turned into a warm current flowing all over my body as soon as I drank it, and then I The cultivation method of the cultivation method started to work automatically, and then he successfully broke through to the third level of congenital!" Qin Hao excitedly told his father Qin Zhaotian about the whole process of his breakthrough.

"Half a glass of wine made you break through the bottleneck. There is such a magical wine in the world. Maybe that wine is no longer wine, but some kind of panacea! Could it be that the young man you brought back is an immortal?" Qin Zhaotian said Se was shocked.

"I don't know either, but I know brother Lin Fan must be a magical figure. I believe he will not do any harm to our Qin family! So, I invited him to my home." Qin Hao said.

"Haha! Okay, well done! Hao'er, you did a great job this time! Remember, you must treat that strange man well, and try to satisfy him with whatever request he has!" Qin Zhaotian laughed happily, his own His son Qin Hao may have done something that was of great benefit to the entire Qin family.

"Yes, father! I will definitely treat Brother Lin Fan well!" Qin Hao nodded in response.

Afterwards, the two father and son discussed for a long time in the study.

the next morning.

Lin Fan was enjoying the cakes brought by the servants in the Qin Mansion in the gazebo, and Qin Hao came to the small courtyard where Lin Fan was located with a smile on his face.

"Brother Lin Fan, good morning!" Qin Hao came to the gazebo and greeted Lin Fan.

"Brother Qin Hao, good morning!" Lin Fan nodded, "Have you had breakfast? Do you want to come together? The cakes made by your Qin family sound delicious!"

"No, I've already eaten!" Qin Hao shook his head, "Since Brother Lin Fan likes it, do you want me to ask someone to bring another one?"

"No, I'm already full!" Lin Fan clapped his hands and said. "Brother Qin Hao, do you have any interesting places to introduce today?"

"Yes! Of course there is! Why don't we watch the fighting beast together?" Qin Hao said immediately.

Lin Fan thought for a while, and said, "Beast fighting, it seems quite interesting! Okay, let's go and see how beast fighting is!"

Now that today's arrangement has been decided, Lin Fan and Qin Hao left the Qin Mansion.

on the street.

Qin Hao explained to Lin Fan what fighting beasts are: "Beast fighting is actually a fight between two monsters in the Colosseum. In the Colosseum, watching monsters fight is not the most important thing. The most important thing is gambling. Guests in the Colosseum can place bets on the monsters that are about to fight, and if they win, they can get huge bonuses."

Not long after, Qin Hao brought Lin Fan to a building that looked like an arena. There was a big arch bridge-shaped entrance with the words "Luojia Colosseum" engraved on it, and there were constant shouts and curses coming from the arena. outgoing.

The Luo family Colosseum is the property of the Luo family of the four major families in Qinhuai City. Every year, this Colosseum will bring a lot of benefits to the Luo family.

Qin Hao is very familiar with the environment here, obviously he often goes in and out of here.

Soon, Lin Fan and Qin Hao came to the inside of the arena, and saw that the design of the arena was similar to that of the ancient Roman arena.

At this time, there are two low-level monsters fighting in the arena. These two kinds of monsters are low-level monsters of the third level of Qi training. The beast suppressed and beat, already covered in wounds, obviously not an opponent who looked like a monster.

There are many people in the arena, and these people are very excited, some are yelling and cursing, while some are cheering for the four-faced monster.

"Brother Lin Fan, how about this beast? Isn't it exciting?" Qin Hao asked with a smile.

"It's really exciting for ordinary people." Lin Fan nodded in agreement. "Brother Qin Hao, you said you can bet, where can you bet?"

"Brother Lin Fan, I'll take you there!" Qin Hao walked in front to lead Lin Fan.

Not long after, Qin Hao brought Lin Fan to the betting place.

"Can I still bet now?" Lin Fan asked.

"After the game starts, you can't bet!" said the person in charge of betting.

"It's a pity! If I can still bet now, I will definitely make a fortune!" Lin Fan said with some regret.

"What's the pity, just wait until the next game to bet!" Qin Hao said.

"Brother Qin Hao, you said that the two monsters fighting below will only win?" Lin Fan asked suddenly.

"Of course it's the four-faced monster. Judging from the current situation, it must be the four-faced monster that won the final victory." Qin Hao looked at Lin Fan puzzled, and it was obvious why Lin Fan would ask this kind of answer. The problem.

Lin Fan shook his finger and said, "Brother Qin Hao, you are wrong! This time the beast fight will be won by the blue-eyed tiger beast."

"Really?" Qin Hao didn't believe it.

"Don't believe me? Let's see the result together, we will find out soon!" Lin Fan pointed at the two monsters fighting in the arena.

The situation of the blue-eyed tiger in the arena became more and more critical, almost all of them were crushed and beaten by the four-faced monsters, and they were completely powerless to fight back.

Suddenly, the four-eyed monster rushed towards the blue-eyed monster, and its long sharp horns were like piercing bamboo, about to penetrate into the body of the blue-eyed tiger.

At this moment, the blue-eyed tiger suddenly turned its body to one side, avoiding the fatal blow, and then a tiger tail tripped the four-face monster, and the four-eye monster immediately fell to the ground, unable to get up for a while.

The blue-eyed tiger leaped forward, biting the neck of the four-faced monster fiercely. The four-faced monster, which had consumed too much strength just now, had no strength to struggle at this time, and with a fall, it was even less able to resist. strength.

Soon, the four-eyed monster died at the mouth of the blue-eyed tiger.

"This..." Qin Hao stared dumbfounded at everything that happened in the arena, and it turned out to be exactly as Lin Fan said, the blue-eyed tiger beast that was suppressed and beaten by the four-faced monster turned defeat into victory. "Brother Lin Fan, how did you know that the blue-eyed monster would win?"

"It's very simple. Even though the blue-eyed monster was crushed and beaten by the four-faced monster, its eyes are still full of carefulness, the kind of confidence that only a winner can have!" Lin Fan said lightly.

"I see!" Qin Hao nodded.

In the next hour or so, Lin Fan and Qin Hao watched a few more beast fights.During this period, Lin Fan and Qin Hao placed bets several times, and the betting beast always won, so they won a lot of silver taels.
