Zhang Xiaofan arrived in Fucheng City. It was still early in the day. After getting off the vehicle, he silently made his way to Mingzhu Grand Hotel. Thinking of the bewitching beauty Li Yanhong, who was like Su Daji, he couldn't help but feel extremely eager inside.
When he reached the entrance of the hotel, he paused for a moment. Without hesitation, Zhang Xiaofan didn't enter. Instead, he bypassed the entrance of Mingzhu Hotel and headed towards Zhuque Key High School.
His plan required one hundred million yuan right from the start. He really wanted to ask that woman who was like a demon, but Zhang Xiaofan thought of Village Chief Sister who had seen him off at home, so he dismissed the idea.
Moreover, he wasn't the type to easily ask for favors. He'd just see if there were any deals to be made in the future!
It was already the end of summer. On the street near the school, there were students everywhere, full of youthful vitality. Their ages were about the same as Zhang Xiaofan's. They hung out in groups of three or five, chatting and laughing. Most of them were wearing school uniforms.
The people in the city had a good life and developed well. The male students were tall and big. Many of them were even taller than Zhang Xiaofan.
The female students were even more graceful. The collars of their clothes were starting to bulge, like buds slowly growing. It was really a nice sight.
Zhang Xiaofan had never been to school. Standing on the street and looking at these students, he suddenly thought of Xiaozi in his village. The kids in the village weren't stupid. Thanks to the spiritual energy of the land, their minds were even sharper than those of the people here.
However, due to its remoteness and a low starting point, they couldn't go to school. When they grew up, they were doomed to be regarded as fools in the eyes of these people.
"Hey, handsome! I've never seen you before. Which class are you in? Are you a transfer student?"
As he was walking, three female students approached him. They were wearing school uniforms, but there were tattoos on their arms, blue butterflies. And looking at the lazy demeanor of the three girls, they were clearly the troublemakers among the students. They were just average-looking and took the initiative to strike up a conversation.
Zhang Xiaofan was too delicate and handsome, attracting many female students to turn their heads and look.
Zhang Xiaofan ignored them and didn't answer. Instead, he quickened his pace and walked briskly.
On the way, he also saw a dozen or so students fighting fiercely in an alley, fighting tooth and nail.
Just as Zhang Xiaofan arrived at the campus entrance, with his spiritual sense, he eavesdropped on what the students were saying, their actions, and what they were doing, and got a general understanding of the school in his heart.
The school was like a small world, and it was particularly chaotic, just like the world of triads. After all, young people were full of energy and impulsive. Many things couldn't resist temptation, and they liked to be vain.
"Teacher, I'd like to find Principal Chen, Chen Beixuan. I don't know where he lives. Could you help me contact him?"
Zhang Xiaofan arrived at the campus entrance and looked inside. There were rows of exquisite buildings, very spacious, with many trees planted. The environment was indeed nice.
At the same time, he politely called the security guard beside him "teacher".
The tall and handsome captain of the security guard, hearing someone call him "teacher" for the first time, felt quite pleased inside. So he also said very amiably:
"You look new here! It's been a few days since school started. Are you a newly transferred student? By the way, I'm not a teacher here. I'm in charge of school security. Principal Chen should be in his office. I'll make a call to notify him. If possible, you can go in and find him!"
Zhang Xiaofan stood there and nodded obediently.
The captain of the security guard immediately took his baton and walked into the office. After dialing the phone and saying a few words, he shouted out of the window again:
"Hey... student. Principal Chen Beixuan asks, what's your name?"
Zhang Xiaofan also answered back to the security room:
"My name is Zhang Xiaofan. Just tell him my name."
The captain of the security guard said a few more words on the phone in the police room and immediately hung up the phone and came out. His attitude became much more respectful. It was unknown what Principal Chen Beixuan had said to the captain of the security guard.
"Student, Principal Chen said you can go see him. He also asked me to lead the way personally. Follow me! You look like you're from a notable family. Whose child are you?"
Zhang Xiaofan finally entered the campus and got on the police car of the captain of the security guard, slowly driving into the campus.
"Teacher, you overestimate me. Look at what I'm wearing. I'm not a child of a high-ranking official. It's just that my family elder and Principal Chen are old friends!"
The small police car was actually a motorcycle, which was the vehicle for the security guards to patrol the campus. It drove very slowly on the campus, and the two began to talk.
"Oh! So that's how it is. Looking at what you're wearing, you should be from the countryside! Actually, my hometown is also in the countryside. Which place are you from?"
The captain of the security guard was good at talking; otherwise, he couldn't have held this position.
"Qingyang Town, Jiulong Village." Zhang Xiaofan didn't hide anything and wasn't afraid of lowering his status. He told everything straightforwardly.
Hearing Jiulong Village, the captain of the security guard obviously paused for a moment. Jiulong Village was well-known to everyone. It was the biggest mountain in Fucheng City and also the most backward place. Even in the whole of Huaxia, it ranked among the top few in terms of the most backward and poor places.
"Little brother, you've had a hard time! I suppose you're here to study! You must study hard. Knowledge can change your destiny, and only then can you leave Jiulong Village in the future."
Zhang Xiaofan nodded and didn't speak anymore. After about ten or fifteen minutes, they finally arrived at the office of the teaching building. From the captain of the security guard, he learned which room Principal Chen lived in and walked in by himself.
"Oh! Zhang Xiaofan... I didn't expect you to remember me. Coming to my school really adds luster to our school!"
As soon as he entered the office, there were several teachers, both male and female, looking at Zhang Xiaofan curiously.
However, there was an old man with an excited face, smiling with wrinkles all over his face, and he actually took the initiative to greet him.
"Beixuan senior, you flatter me too much."
Zhang Xiaofan also modestly replied.
"Xiaofan, sit anywhere you like. I'm very happy that you came to see me. Without being modest, your coming to our school really adds luster to it. I wonder how your master is doing these days?"
The other teachers, seeing the old principal speaking so vaingloriously to a student, were taken aback.
What surprised them even more was that Principal Chen, who was always aloof, actually took the initiative to pull out a chair for this student and pour tea for him.
This was Fucheng City's most famous high school. However, Principal Chen's status was extraordinary. Even people from the Education Bureau or some high-ranking officials had to be respectful in front of Principal Chen. When had they ever seen Principal Chen like this?
The teachers' eyes lit up immediately. This student was extraordinary. His origin and identity must be amazing. Everyone had their own speculations in their hearts.
Zhang Xiaofan sat down and looked at Principal Chen, who was about fifty or sixty years old, and said indifferently:
"My master has ascended to immortality."
"What? The old man was so powerful that he ascended to immortality? Alas! Life and death are like this. Xiaofan, you don't have to be sad."
The old principal was shocked and even a bit incredulous. Then he comforted Zhang Xiaofan.
"I'm not sad! That old man lived for so many years. It's enough! He lived for more than three hundred years. If he didn't die, would he wait to become a spirit?"
Zhang Xiaofan took a sip of tea and said seriously. The relationship between master and disciple had always been like this, never serious.
