Legendary Fighter
Chapters... 241: Water Travel
Rogue's body, which was still in a state of cultivating, emitted an increasingly powerful radiance of energy. As it became clearer, the water changed.
Zhou Fan who saw could not interfere, he simply watched with a satisfied smile.
A moment later, Rogue opened her eyes, along with it her cultivation increased by one more level.
Rogue stood up, as soon as she saw Zhou Fan beside her she spontaneously scattered herself into the young man's embrace.
"Thank you" Rogue said in a soft voice.
Now that he really felt what he had been hoping for, getting a big brother like Zhou Fan was a blessing to him.
"No need to thank you, you're my sister, I should've done that." Zhou Fan stroked Rogue's long hair.
Rogue nodded, though she knew Zhou Fan did not understand her thank-you intent. Not for the pill he gave, but rather the sense of comfort itself.
Day after day and even week passed so quickly, during that period of time, Zhou Fan did not move from the restaurant.
He also very rarely left the room, just waiting for Rogue to cultivate. But sometimes, he came out when he wanted to taste the food that was not served the restaurant.
"When do we continue the journey, don't you have a purpose in the journey?" Rogue asked as she sat her body on the edge of the bed.
Zhou Fan who was by the window, looked up and nodded.
"I'm actually very curious." Rogue said softly, her face lowered in doubt.
Zhou Fan who saw that approached, then sat down beside him. "Tell me, why should I say it."
Rogue raised her face, right what Zhou Fan said, she shouldn't have acted that way. It would only make her brother feel guilty.
"Where are you going, brother?"
Zhou Fan let go of the crack he had previously circled onto the girl's shoulder, he then stood his back to Rogue.
Rogue was already anxious-faced, she was worried that her words made Zhou Fan object. But what happened was the opposite, really not in accordance with what was in his mind.
"Pick someone up." Zhou Fan replied with a smile, he recalled Wei Guanlin again, surely he was waiting for his arrival.
Rogue mangut mangut, he thought surely the figure was very important for Zhou Fan. Until I say it with a very sincere smile.
...
"Savior, are you two really going?" The Village Chief came with the old man beside him, the old man was none other than Chief Hao.
"We've been troubling the village chief's master for too long, there's no way we'll continue to do that." Zhou Fan smiled amiably while trying to convey his point.
"No, no..." The village chief shook his hands quickly, his head also shook his head trying to brush off Zhou Fan's statement.
"How can it be said to be troublesome, really not at all. Although longer, we'll welcome you with pleasure." The village chief said in a confident tone, his dried jakun rising and falling along with his laughing voice.
"Okay, we beg you to leave first." Zhou Fan cupped his hands and turned around, followed by Rogue who also did what Zhou Fan did.
Zhou Jim did not want to miss, he shook his head and tail and darted after Zhou Fan and Rogue.
After a fairly time-consuming journey, Zhou Fan reached the border of Quan City with Xiyu City.
In front of it already looks a simple dock, but still crowded will be the activities of people passing by.
The ship is lined up neatly, raising passengers who will travel. It is also seen that some of the new ships stop by carrying tens or even hundreds of people on it.
On the edge of the pier, there were people setting up a place to trade. And that makes the dock even more crowded.
Inadvertently Zhou Fan's eyes caught an old man sitting in one of the merchant ranks with a basket in hand.
Zhou Fan paid more attention to the old man, with a stick in his other hand, he opened his voice peddling merchandise which if not misheard was dry bread.
Zhou Fan nudged Rogue on the shoulder, he then gestured for the girl to stay there for some time.
Getting a nod, Zhou Fan then went to the old man's place of the dry bread seller.
"Excuse me grandpa?" Zhou Fan took out his gold coins that were still wrapped in cloth.
"Yes?" The grandfather said in a weak voice, making Zhou Fan even more concerned.
"Grandfather, I want to buy the dry bread. Give me three." The old man raised his face, he then took the leaves hanging in the basket and made it as a tool to wrap.
"One gold coin." The grandfather gave three packs of dry bread to Zhou Fan.
Zhou Fan received it, as his right hand gave the gold coins as said. He was unwilling to give any more gold coins because he felt that the old man would not accept them.
It is seen that everyone must know the determination of the old man is very very high, at the age of twilight does not make him beg to others, but try with his ability.
For people like him, the free help given by others even makes him feel humiliated. Taking that into consideration Zhou Fan did not overstate the price he had spent.
Zhou Fan opened one of the dry bread packs, he then ate it slowly. The shape that extends about one inch with a segment of two thumbs, making dry bread that tastes savory and sweet it can not enter once greedy.
"Hum..." Zhou Fan enjoyed the taste of the dried bread laden with memories.
Zhou Fan closed his eyes, recalling the memories related to dry bread.
Clearly in his memory, dry bread was his father's weapon while trying to persuade him. When he was saddened by his uselessness, his father always persuaded him to bring him dry bread.
Maybe some people will consider it too much, because it is just a dry bread, a simple food that is commonly sold on the outskirts of the market.
However, to Zhou Fan it was a form of his father's affection and support for him. And it cannot be measured by how much it costs, but by whom it is given.
"Grandfather, give me six more." Zhou Fan kept the two remaining dry breads, while the old man in front of him was busy wrapping up Zhou Fan's order.
After getting his order and paying the price of two gold coins, Zhou Fan returned to where he left Rogue alone. Although Zhou Jim was actually with the girl as well.
"The last ship is leaving soon." Rogue glanced at Zhou Fan who had just come, his index finger pointing towards a ship that stood without comrades.
"I'm done, let's go up." Zhou Fan walked leisurely towards the ship that was about to take off.
Rogue followed one step behind Zhou Fan, while Zhou Jim was right next to the girl's right.
Riding the ship, some people looked at him. Zhou Fan who found such gazes looked back at them one by one.
"Why see me?"
