Chapter 886 Science Fiction Movie Girlfriend
Chapter 886 Science Fiction Girlfriend
The sky gradually brightened, a hint of white appeared in the east, the faint and moist morning mist brought a brief coolness to this hot summer day, and there was the smell of grass and trees in the air.
The next morning, when Wei Changtian opened his eyes and woke up, Gu Paner just fetched a basin of water for washing his face, and was adjusting the water temperature gently.
”.”
Sitting up from the bed, rubbing his temples, Wei Changtian stretched out in a relaxed manner.
Last night, he drank with Gu Paner until midnight, and then went back to the inn to sleep. It was a literal “sleep”, not that “sleep”.
This can’t blame Wei Changtian for “not being a man”.
After all, Gu Paner is now “a good woman”, so of course he can’t treat her as a prostitute anymore.
”Sir, are you awake?”
Noticing the movement from Wei Changtian, Gu Pan’er turned her head and smiled, “I was a little drunk last night, and I didn’t help you change your clothes. I’m afraid you didn’t sleep very well.”
”It doesn’t matter. Warriors don’t have so many rules.”
Wei Changtian replied casually, got out of bed and walked over, took the towel from Gu Pan’er, and washed his face hastily.
Of course he wouldn’t be drunk. At most, he was “slightly tipsy” last night.
And Gu Pan’er shouldn’t be drunk either. What she said just now was just an excuse.
She knew that people like her must have many secrets, so she didn’t help her change her clothes, for fear of seeing something she shouldn’t see, which would cause her disgust.
Combined with what happened when she was drinking last night, it can be seen that Gu Pan’er is a woman who is very good at observing words and expressions and knows how to measure.
But it’s normal. After all, after so many years in the brothel, this should be the most basic “professional quality”. After
washing his face and changing into clean clothes, Wei Changtian and Gu Pan’er went to the front hall of the inn to have breakfast.
It was just dawn, but there were many guests eating in the front hall. The aroma of porridge mixed with the sound of conversation filled every corner.
While eating, Wei Changtian casually asked Gu Paner about her next plan.
The latter seemed to be a little hesitant, looked up at him, and after a long while, she replied softly:
”I haven’t thought about it yet.”
”Well, then think about it slowly.”
Wei Changtian pretended not to see her thoughts and suggested seriously: “But I think you still need to find a way to make a living.”
”By the way, you have been in Manxianglou for so many years, you should be very familiar with rouge and powder, why not open a shop selling rouge and powder.”
”Of course, I’m just saying that, it would be better if you have other plans.”
As he spoke, he took out a silver note from his arms and put it in front of Gu Paner.
Wei Changtian explained while drinking porridge:
”No matter what you do, you need money.”
”I don’t know whether the government can get your money back yet. Take this thousand taels first, and think of it as me lending it to you together with the five thousand taels from yesterday.”
”Don’t be embarrassed, this little money is nothing to me.”
”.”
He gave away another thousand taels at once. If Xu Qingwan were here, she would probably be heartbroken.
However, Wei Changtian really didn’t care about this little money, so he continued to eat after he finished speaking.
As for Gu Pan’er on the other side.
If it were someone else, they would probably struggle for a while, and then either refuse or accept it with great gratitude.
But Gu Pan’er just looked around vigilantly, and when she saw that no one noticed this side, she quickly put the banknote into her sleeve.
”Sir, this is a thousand taels of silver, ordinary people have never seen it.”
She looked at Wei Changtian helplessly, and whispered: “Why did you take it out like this?”
”It’s okay, anyway, no one dares to steal from me.”
Wei Changtian smiled and joked, and found Gu Paner more interesting.
Except for the fact that her reaction was almost the same as what he expected when he redeemed her last night, Gu Paner did have a kind of “generosity” that most women in this society did not have. She has a
high emotional intelligence, does things quickly, and is quite courageous.
Perhaps this is closely related to her “work experience”.
But no matter what, it is a rare quality to be placed here.
”Is one thousand taels enough?”
Shaking his head and not thinking about it any further, Wei Changtian looked at Gu Paner and said with a smile: “Anyway, I have already lent you six thousand taels, and it doesn’t matter if there is more.”
”Well, it should be enough.”
After thinking for a while, Gu Paner nodded gently: “If it is not enough, I will talk to you again.”
”Hahaha, okay.”
Wei Changtian laughed twice, then drank the remaining porridge in the bowl in one gulp, put down his chopsticks and prepared to get up.
Seeing that he seemed to be leaving, Gu Paner hurriedly asked:
”Young Master, do you have anything to do today?”
”Well? What’s wrong?”
”I want to find a place to stay today. If you have nothing to do, can you accompany me?”
”Forget it, I have something to do today.”
”Okay, then I’ll go and see it myself.”
”Well”
”.”
Don’t be shy when making a request, and don’t be disappointed after being rejected.
To be honest, if we put aside Gu Paner’s past identity, her personality should have been very popular in her previous life, and she could definitely be considered a “girlfriend in a science fiction movie”.
Unfortunately, in today’s society, this kind of personality is not as restrained and reserved as women “should be” in the eyes of most people, but it is a shortcoming.
A quarter of an hour later, Wei Changtian and Gu Paner left the inn separately.
Since the latter was going to find a house to settle down in the future, he quickly found a broker who specialized in “real estate agency” business in the market and followed the latter to “view a house”.
Wei Changtian went straight to a temple in the north of Linchuan City, Yun’an Temple.
Daqian is different from Daning. There is no mainstream way of cultivation in the country. There are various schools and sects. To put it nicely, it is called “a hundred schools of thought contending”, and to put it bluntly, it is called “half a catty and eight taels”
. Therefore, there is only one Buddhist temple in the entire Linchuan Prefecture, Yun’an Temple.
Of course, Wei Changtian definitely did not come to Yun’an Temple to worship Buddha or something like that.
The reason he came here was because the old beggar disappeared here last night.
When they fought last night, Wei Changtian used a “Thousand Miles of Smoke” on the old beggar in order to monitor his whereabouts.
Wei Changtian had used the Thousand Miles of Smoke many times before, and it never went wrong.
But this time, something unexpected happened.
At first, there was no problem. Although the old beggar escaped with the help of the escape technique, Wei Changtian could still feel his position at all times. But
soon after the former came to Yun’an Temple, the “positioning signal” disappeared.
The working principle of the Thousand Miles of Smoke is a bit similar to “GPS positioning”, which is to leave a mark similar to a “locator” on others to achieve the effect of tracking.
Normally, this mark cannot be discovered. At least no one has ever discovered it before.
But now the old beggar not only discovered it, but also erased it, which undoubtedly proved that his methods were not only those that Wei Changtian had seen.
So Wei Changtian was ready to come to Yun’an Temple to see if he could find any clues.
At the same time as he was heading towards Yun’an Temple, several scouts also rushed into the city from outside, all the way to the Linchuan government office, and then breathlessly reported to Su Qi in front of his astonished eyes:
”My lord! Something terrible has happened!!”
”A beast-beast tide!”
”Three hundred miles north of the city, a beast tide is heading towards Linchuan City!”
