Chapter 41 Reunion of old friendsHearing this, Wang Ye suddenly laughed.
"If you just want to see the old master, there is no need to go through so much trouble."
Zhang Chulan was puzzled, "What do you mean?"
"Here." Wang Ye pointed to a place not far ahead, "The one taking pictures in front is the old Taoist priest."
Zhang Chulan's expression suddenly changed and he looked in the direction Wang Ye pointed.
Jiang Lan also glanced over there, and saw an old man with a youthful face and white hair facing the reporters' cameras, smiling and making a scissors sign.
Next to the old man stood a young Taoist priest with white hair and white robe. Upon closer inspection, it was the junior uncle who had been knocked unconscious by Jiang Lan with two slaps.
Jiang Lan blinked.
Although he had never seen the old Taoist priest before, why did he always feel something was wrong when he saw this old Taoist priest making the scissors hand gesture to the camera?
"How about it, do you want to go and have a look?"
"Let's go!" Zhang Chulan looked a little excited, then turned back to look at Jiang Lan and others and said:
"I'll go over there first."
After saying this, without waiting for others to agree, he hurriedly ran to where the old Taoist priest was.
Wang Ye did not follow immediately, as if he had just seen Jiang Lan.
"Donor, you look familiar, may I know your name?"
Jiang Lan was stunned, then stared at Wang Ye's face for a long time.
He felt that this person seemed to have an indescribable sense of familiarity.
"Your name is Wang Ye?"
"Yes."
After thinking carefully for a while, a distant memory was evoked in Jiang Lan's mind.
He suddenly remembered and said to Wang Ye:
"That should be correct. We played together when we were young. By the way, how is uncle's health?"
Hearing this, Wang was also shocked.
His identity has always been well hidden. Except for a very few people, few people in the entire extraordinary circle know about his family situation.
And from what this person said, it seemed that not only did he know who he was, but the two of them also had a previous relationship?
Seeing Wang Ye's doubts, Jiang Lan said:
"It's normal that you don't remember. It happened more than ten years ago. My name is Jiang Lan."
Jiang's father's status and position are not only good in the circle of extraordinary people, but he also has many industries in reality, and can barely be considered a financial tycoon.
Many years ago, Jiang's father did have some business dealings with Wang Ye's father, Wang Weiguo.
Jiang Lan and Wang Ye were of similar age, and they were both children at that time, so naturally they had met each other several times and got along pretty well.
"Jiang Lan..."
Wang Ye pondered for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Fuck, you are Uncle Jiang's son, right? We haven't seen each other for thirteen or fourteen years, right? I asked my father back then, and he told me that you were sick and went to the hospital. I wanted to go visit you!"
"Uh……"
Jiang Lan's mouth twitched.
Going to the hospital, it's really amazing that his father could come up with such an excuse.
But if you have to say so, there is nothing wrong with it.
He went to the bunker to get treatment, even though he didn't get cured...
"So many years have passed, I almost forgot about you, but I never thought you were also an alien?"
"Yes."
"Hey, what disease did you have back then? There has been no news for more than ten years."
Wang was also very enthusiastic. Although they were old friends meeting again after a long separation, there was no sense of strangeness at all, as if the two had never lost contact in the past few decades.
Jiang Lan was also very happy to see old friends.
Jiang Lan's childhood could be considered the happiest time in his life, but everything changed after he turned seven.
He also said to the king:
"Now is not the time to reminisce about the past. We'll talk later. Let's go see the old Taoist first."
"Oh, yes, let's go, go, go." As he said that, Wang directly pulled Jiang Lan's arm and followed Zhang Chulan's footsteps in front.
Xu San and Xu Si looked at each other, and Xu Si said:
"My goodness, where does this Wang Ye come from? From the sound of it, he is related to Jiang Lan?"
"No doubt, their family must be either rich or noble. Let's go and take a look." After Xu San finished speaking, he turned around and glanced at Feng Baobao, "Let's go together."
A few dozen seconds later, Jiang Lan and his three companions came to the old Taoist priest.
At this moment, all the reporters who had taken pictures just now had left, and the old Taoist priest and the young master uncle were greeting the passing tourists.
"Old Master."
Hearing the greeting, the old Taoist turned around and his eyes met Wang Ye, Zhang Chulan and Jiang Lan.
"Wudang King, meet the old Heavenly Master."
The old Taoist priest smiled and said:
"Wang Ye, how is your master's health?"
"He is in good health," Wang agreed, and then said, "Look, who did I bring to you?"
The old Taoist priest looked at Jiang Lan and the other two.
"Little Jiang Lan? And this one, is it Chu Lan?"
"I didn't expect that you, old master, could recognize me."
Jiang Lan smiled. Like Wang Ye, the last time the old Taoist priest met him was probably more than ten years ago.
At that time, he was still a little kid who had not grown up yet.
"Lingyu, go greet the other guests first."
When Zhang Lingyu first saw Jiang Lan, his eyes changed, as if he recalled some bad memories.
When Zhang Lingyu heard the old Taoist priest ask him to go and greet other guests, he felt as if he had been pardoned and quickly bowed and took his leave.
The old Taoist priest looked at Jiang Lan with a smile.
"You little brat, you beat my apprentice pretty badly."
Jiang Lan smiled awkwardly.
"I haven't seen it before, please don't be surprised, old master."
"Why should I blame you? I can only blame his own poor kung fu." The old Taoist priest waved his hand, "Okay, little Jiang Lan, I want to talk to Chu Lan."
Jiang Lan nodded, took a half step back, and made room for Zhang Chulan.
His family only had some connections with Longhu Mountain, so just saying hello was enough, but Zhang Chulan was the main target of the old Taoist priest.
Although no one said it explicitly, anyone with some ability in the world of extraordinary people knew that this Luotian Grand Ceremony could almost be said to be specially held for Zhang Chulan.
“Zhang Chulan, call me Master.” The old Taoist priest said in a more serious tone, “Your grandfather passed down the Golden Light Curse and Thunder Method to you, so it’s not unfair for you to call me Master.”
Zhang Chulan was moved.
"Master..."
"Follow me." said the old Taoist priest, then turned around and led the way.
After walking two steps, the old Taoist priest turned around and said to Wang Ye, "Little Wang Ye, take Jiang Lan around Longhu Mountain first."
"Don't worry, old master. Just go about your business."
After watching the old Taoist priest and Zhang Chulan enter a palace door, Wang Ye turned to look at Jiang Lan and said:
"I wonder where you've been for the past ten years? There's been no news at all."
"bunker."
"Bunker?" Wang was also shocked. "What kind of good person would stay in a bunker? Why did you go there?"
Jiang Lan: "..."
Why did Wang Ye's words make him so uncomfortable?
"Nothing, I just had some health problems when I was a kid, so I went to the bunker to recuperate for a while..."
