The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 272: Temporarily Avoiding the Attack
Because the remaining disciples had hidden themselves, Li Jian couldn't find them, so he didn't go looking for them. He had plenty of ways to get them out.

The situation of "disordered marriage lines" appeared again everywhere in the mortal world, and the marriages of mortals became a mess. People took their anger out on Yue Lao and rushed into the Yue Lao Temple in anger and smashed the statue of Yue Lao.

Luo Fan saw the trending search "Statues of Yue Lao were smashed one after another in a certain place" on his mobile phone, and hurried to the nearest Yue Lao Temple to see what was going on.

As soon as he arrived at the temple gate, he saw a group of people crowding inside. They were holding brooms, hoes, and hammers. They all had angry looks and kept cursing.

The Taoist priests in the temple tried their best to stop them. Two people were maliciously pushed to the ground and injured. The rest of the people linked hands to form a "guardrail" to surround the troublemakers.

Seeing that the Taoist priests were about to be unable to stop them, Luo Fan quickly took out his phone and called the police, rushing over and shouting, "Whoever dares to cause trouble, I've called the police!"

When those people heard the voice, they turned around and glanced at Luo Fan, but they didn't buy his account at all and rushed in anyway.

There was no other way. The Taoist priests all surrounded the statue of Yue Lao tightly. Luo Fan also squeezed in and surrounded the statue together with the Taoist priests.

Those people were so angry that they didn't dare to use tools to hit people. In the end, they beat up Luo Fan and the Taoist priests who were surrounding the statue with fists and kicks.

At this time, "sirens" were heard outside the temple, and those people finally stopped.

The Taoist priests finally breathed a sigh of relief. They collectively thanked Luo Fan for his "generous help" and then hurried to find medicine to treat their wounds.

Luo Fan's face was already bruised and swollen, but fortunately, the statue of Yue Lao here was only slightly damaged and could be repaired with a little effort.

He was so tired that he sat down in front of the statue of Yue Lao. He didn't want to talk at this moment and just wanted to rest.

In the dark, Li Jian was watching all this. He didn't expect that the smashing of the statue would only attract the mortal Luo Fan, not Xia Yu and the remaining forty or so fellow disciples.

As the "troublemakers" were taken away by the police for questioning, Li Jian received a message from Chu Lichen and Nangong Xu, saying that the Yue Lao Temple in other areas had attracted more than a dozen disciples. They were too numerous and powerful for the two of them to defeat, so they requested support.

Li Jian left in a hurry.

After Li Jian left, the God of Land emerged from the ground, sweating profusely. Looking at Luo Fan, who was resting next to the statue, he sighed, "Oh... young man... you were very courageous just now! Haha... you just stepped on my head..."

"The land god?"

Luo Fan stood up in shock, and then quickly apologized: "I'm so sorry, I didn't know you were here..."

The God of Land looked up at the high Yue Lao statue, sighed, and said, "He is an old friend of mine after all, I really can't just stand by and watch... I never thought that his second disciple would be this kind of person."

"Alright, alright, I'm going to hurry back to my temple first. I'm afraid Li Jian will find out and destroy my temple again. That would be terrible!"

After the God of Land finished speaking, he slowly shrank back into the ground and left.

"Luo Fan!"

Xia Yu arrived late because he wanted to avoid Li Jian. As soon as he saw Luo Fan, he quickly used magic to take him away.

After returning to Luo Fan's own house, Xia Yu looked at Luo Fan with a bruised face and a swollen nose with a distressed look, cast a spell to heal the wound on his face, and said with emotion: "You are so stupid to use your body to block them. What if they really don't care and just beat you to death?"

"It's okay... I'm fine! How can I bear to die before I grow old with you..."

"..."

"Why aren't you talking? Are you...so afraid that I'll die? Haha, you're a fairy, if I die, you can still save me, right? Right?"

"You still say it!"

"Okay, okay, I won't say any more..."

Xia Yu's magic worked, and Luo Fan's face returned to its original appearance, as if he had never been beaten, and he didn't feel anything on his body.

"Not only me..." Luo Fan held Xia Yu's hand and explained, "The Taoist priests in the temple are all swearing to protect the statue of Yue Lao, and the God of Land has also come and has been secretly helping in the fields."

It's funny that some people were covered in bruises while trying to protect the statue of Yue Lao, while some people, as Yue Lao's disciples, deliberately caused this "disturbance".

Xia Yu's eyes were filled with tears, but she held them back. She would not shed another tear for Li Jian. She would not allow herself to feel sad for such a person!
"You can't stay here any longer." Xia Yu looked at Luo Fan seriously and explained, "First, he deliberately messed up the 'marriage line' of the destined people, and then caused the people to smash the statue of the master. Next, he may use you to threaten me."

Just as Xia Yu finished speaking, a red pearl flew through the window and landed in the palm of Xia Yu's hand. Xia Yu clenched his palm, and the anxious voice of a senior brother was suddenly heard in the house.

"Junior sister, Li Jian has arrived. We are no match for him and have all been captured. You must hide quickly!"

"Whose voice is this?" Luo Fan asked hurriedly.

"Not good!" "What's wrong?"

"Brother Eighty-Eight was captured. The spell of 'Thousand Miles Sound Transmission' was cast deliberately by Li Jian. He followed this spell and chased after us!"

Xia Yu grabbed Luo Fan's hand and started running away again.

In order to prevent Luo Fan from worrying, Xia Yu even took Luo Fan's parents and sister away, and cast a spell together to bring them back to [Niaowo Village].

He couldn't continue to "expose his identity", so Xia Yu used a little magic to make Luo Huche, Gao Huilan and Luo Ke think that they had specially asked for leave and were going back to the countryside to live as a family.

In addition, Xia Yu and Luo Fan were also there, so they thought that this was Luo Fan's idea to avoid Bai Zhi. Since they were happy to see the couple's love, of course they had no objection.

However, when they walked into the yard through the gate, the three of them were dumbfounded.

Luo Fan held Xia Yu's hand and followed the three people. As soon as they entered the yard, they were also shocked by the scene in front of them.

Luo Fan: Does she really have... so many senior brothers?

Xia Yu: Are these few senior brothers the only ones here?

They no longer remembered how they came down the mountain into this deserted village, but they vaguely recalled walking along a thorny path.

Other houses were covered with weeds, but theirs seemed even more beautiful than before, especially the vegetables in the vegetable garden, which were green and full of vitality.

There were a few more benches in the courtyard, and a few handsome young men were sitting around, as if they had lived here for several years.

"they are……"

"They are my friends." Luo Fan replied hurriedly without thinking.

"Hello, uncle and aunt!"

Twenty-five handsome guys stood up at the same time and greeted the old couple shyly.

"Sit...sit, sit, sit..."

Luo Huche finished speaking with a smile, but he hadn't recovered from the shock yet. He held Gao Huilan's hand, but looked at Luo Fan with eyes full of questions.

"Son... this..." Gao Huilan smiled stiffly and pulled Luo Fan hard with both hands, "This small courtyard... this... how is this possible..."

"Brother..." Luo Ke's focus was not on the changes in the courtyard. She looked at the 25 handsome boys and walked over uncontrollably, muttering, "You... when did you... have so many handsome friends?"

"Hello, brothers! I'm Luo Ke, Luo Fan's sister, his only sister..."

Ignoring Luo Fan's nervous expression, Luo Ke quickly ran over to start a conversation with the handsome guys.

"Mom and Dad, I actually came back secretly a few years ago and renovated the courtyard. I thought that in the future... we could use this place as... as the wedding room for Xiaoyu and I..." Luo Fan pulled the old couple to sit on a bench under the locust tree, and made up a lie with his eyes open: "I... these friends helped a lot, so I also invited them to come over anytime..."

"Really? Xiaoyu, do you want to use this place... as your wedding room?"

"Have you thought that far ahead?"

The old couple looked at Xia Yu together.

Xia Yu looked at Luo Fan who was secretly winking at her, so she had to smile and nodded.

"That's great. We are very much in favor of you two getting married soon."

"But...the roads in this deep forest are all blocked, and the path down the mountain is also overgrown with thorns. How did you get the materials to renovate our abandoned yard?"

"That's right! There's no one in the village, no food, no clothes..."

The old couple didn't quite believe it. Hearing this, Luo Fan deliberately whispered, "My friends' families are all rich. They usually keep a low profile and don't allow anyone to talk about it. They all have helicopters, and the materials were delivered by helicopter."

When Gu Baili heard Luo Fan's story from afar, he actually cast a spell and conjured up several helicopters that parked behind the courtyard.

"Those grapes...those vegetables..." Gao Huilan looked at the fragrant flower pots again and thought: This doesn't look like someone who comes here occasionally to visit.

The changes in the courtyard were already astonishing. Luo Huche couldn't help but go into the room and take a look around. Seeing the changes, he was secretly happy: This has been renovated like a high-end homestay, it's simply... it's simply a great place for my wife and I to retire!
