Chapter 256 Zhang Chulan's Choice
Amid the noise outside the room, Zhang Chulan seemed to have entered a strange space while unconscious.
The place was shrouded in mist, his figure stood alone, and faint whispers echoed around him.
It seems to come from the distant past, but also seems to be welling up from the depths of my heart.
Suddenly, a ray of light broke through the fog, and Zhang Chulan instinctively ran towards the light.
When the light faded, he found himself in the familiar courtyard of his childhood. His grandfather was sitting in a rocking chair with his usual mysterious smile on his face.
"grandfather……"
Zhang Chulan called softly, his eyes reddening.
Zhang Huaiyi slowly opened his eyes and looked at his grandson in front of him, his eyes full of relief and love.
"Chu Lan, if you can do it, Grandpa will know that you can do it."
Zhang Chulan stepped forward eagerly.
"Grandpa, I miss you so much..."
Zhang Huaiyi smiled without saying anything, reached out and touched Zhang Chulan's head, and sighed softly.
Then he stood up and walked to an old tree in the courtyard.
“My child, since you have chosen this path, you must walk on it bravely.
You must constantly improve your own abilities, make reliable friends, and gain a firm foothold in the alien world.
Remember Chu Lan, no matter what, don't give up..."
At this moment, the surrounding scene began to become blurred, and Zhang Huaiyi's figure gradually faded.
"grandfather!"
"Grandpa, don't go...!"
Zhang Chulan shouted, trying to grab something, but he only grabbed nothing.
He suddenly woke up from his coma, gasping for breath, with beads of sweat on his forehead.
When Feng Baobao saw him wake up, he came forward excitedly and said, "You idiot, you're awake!"
Zhang Chulan was still immersed in the dream just now, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.
He looked at Feng Baobao and Su Chen beside him, his eyes somewhat confused.
It seems that I can no longer distinguish between dreams and reality.
Su Chen and Xu San were still dealing with the strangers who came to express their gratitude.
The two of them moved among the crowd, responding to various questions and thanks from time to time.
Zhang Chulan rubbed his temples, trying to wake himself up, his voice a little hoarse.
"Sister Baoer, I think I saw grandpa just now."
Zhang Chulan's voice was low, and he seemed to be still immersed in that dream.
Feng Baobao tilted her head and looked at him without blinking.
"Your grandpa? What did he tell you?"
Zhang Chulan was silent for a while, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
“Grandpa told me to keep going… not to give up.”
“Don’t give up on what?”
Feng Baobao asked, obviously curious about what Zhang Chulan said.
Zhang Chulan had a headache and shook his head, saying, "I don't know what Grandpa is referring to."
At this time, Su Chen walked over and patted Zhang Chulan on the shoulder.
"You slept long enough, the outside world is in chaos.
Those aliens are very interested in you, you have really made a splash this time."
Zhang Chulan smiled bitterly. He didn't like being the center of attention.
"Brother Chen, stop joking.
By the way, how is Zhang Lingyu?"
Su Chen smiled and said.
"You are really careless. You are still thinking about your opponent's situation at this time."
Zhang Chulan scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
"I'm not afraid that Zhang Lingyu will get hurt by my beating. If he really gets into an accident, Longhu Mountain and I will be at odds with each other."
Su Chen patted Zhang Chulan on the shoulder again and said, "Don't worry about it. Zhang Lingyu is very lucky."
Hearing this, Zhang Chulan breathed a sigh of relief, and a stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
He knew that Zhang Lingyu was a favored child of Longhu Mountain. If anything unexpected happened to him because of him, the consequences would be disastrous.
Xu San also came over at this time, his face full of joy.
"Chu Lan, I'm glad you woke up.
Your performance this time has impressed many people, but you must be careful, because your strength has been completely exposed this time."
Zhang Chulan nodded. He understood what Xu San meant.
In this world of aliens where the strong prey on the weak, the increase in strength is always accompanied by new challenges and threats.
However, Zhang Chulan was not too worried about his own safety.
After all, he has Su Chen and Feng Baobao by his side. Judging from their strength, there is almost no rival for them in the entire world of extraordinary people.
It took Zhang Chulan less than a day to recover almost all of his health.
Even Su Chen was a little surprised by this recovery speed.
Without any help from elixirs, Zhang Chulan recovered a lot on his own relying solely on old farmer's skills.
I have to say that the origin of Qi is truly beyond words.
Su Chen has a deep understanding of this.
However, Zhang Chulan still doesn’t know how to use the old farmer’s kung fu and can only circulate it passively in his body.
Not far from the door, several familiar figures walked over. They were Wang Ye, Zhuge Qing and others.
Wang Ye walked in the door, looked Zhang Chulan up and down, and joked.
“Okay, don’t shake Bilian, Zhang Lingyu has been defeated by you.
It seems that I underestimated your strength before."
After that, Wang Ye threw a small white porcelain bottle towards Zhang Chulan.
Zhang Chulan subconsciously caught it, but at the same time stretched the injured part and couldn't help but let out a hissing sound.
"what is this?"
"Looking at your injuries, they're not that serious.
This is a healing medicine unique to Wudang Mountain. I got it from my master. Use it sparingly."
Zhang Chulan felt warm in his heart.
"Thanks."
Wang Ye waved his hand, holding a dogtail grass in his mouth, and said indifferently.
"Hiss, stop!
Don't say anything cheesy."
Zhuge Qing on the side looked at Wang Ye and said unhappily that he had shown sincerity while he had nothing prepared.
"Okay, Lao Wang, it turns out you were already prepared and didn't even remind me.
Chu Lan, I came here empty-handed, I will make it up to you next time."
Zhang Chulan smiled, then waved his hand and said.
"Don't be so formal, we are all family."
Then, Zhuge Qing seemed to have thought of something and continued.
"By the way, Chu Lan, what are your plans next?
According to the rules of Luotian Dajiao, the final winner can obtain the degree of Tianshi from Tianshi Mansion.
Do you really want to be the next Heavenly Master of Mount Longhu?"
I have to say that Zhuge Qing’s questions were very sharp.
For a moment, Zhang Chulan was speechless and didn't know how to answer.
Zhang Chulan's eyes wandered and he was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke.
“To be honest, I haven’t thought about it yet.
I did not come to the Luotian Grand Ceremony for the position of Heavenly Master, but just wanted to find out some things about my grandfather.
But now that things have developed to this point, if I refuse, I'm afraid I will offend a lot of people.
If I accept, I don’t know if I can shoulder the responsibility of being a Heavenly Master.”
After hearing this, Wang Ye spat out the dogtail grass in his mouth and his expression became serious.
“Zhang Chulan, this Heavenly Master Degree is no joke.
The secrets and forces behind it are extremely complicated. Once you are involved, there may be no turning back.
You have to think carefully about it.”
Zhang Chulan sighed helplessly.
"I know, but I feel like I'm in the center of a vortex and I can't help myself."
Feng Baobao suddenly said.
"No matter what, I will follow you. Wherever you go, I will go."
Zhang Chulan looked at Feng Baobao and felt a warm feeling in his heart.
"Thank you, Sister Baoer.
But I can't implicate you, I have to think this through myself."
Su Chen said after thinking for a moment.
"Chu Lan, don't rush to make a decision.
Find an opportunity to have a good chat with the old master and see if he can give you some hints."
Zhuge Qing agreed.
“That’s a good idea. The old Taoist priest has a lot of experience, and he can definitely give you some useful suggestions.
But you have to be careful, other forces are also watching you, they will not sit idly by and watch you successfully obtain the Heavenly Master Degree. "
Wang Ye stretched.
"That's right, you're going to be in trouble later.
But you are a lucky kid, maybe you can turn the bad luck into good luck."
Zhang Chulan smiled bitterly.
"I just hope to find out the truth of what happened back then, instead of being pushed around by various forces."
Just then, a familiar figure pushed the door open and walked in. It was the old Taoist priest.
"Chu Lan, you're awake."
