Chapter 281 Old Man Pan Comes to the Door
"Who's coming?"
"Old Man Pan!"
After saying something to his grandparents, Song An Ning hurried to the village entrance and asked Xiangxiang with his mind.
"How did Marshal Pan become an old beggar? He always gave people the impression of being ethereal and ethereal. This shouldn't be the case..."
"Who knows? He looks injured. I'll check him out when I see Xiangxiang later."
When Song An Ning mentioned the injury, he became more anxious and his steps became much faster.
Old man Pan is a martial arts expert, has lived in this world for hundreds of years, and has a life-saving artifact like a space bracelet. What on earth happened to him that he was injured?
From a distance, Song Anning saw a pitch-black thing under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village. It looked a bit like a human.
"Old Man Pan?"
"Grandpa Marshal?"
"..."
After Song An Ning shouted a few times, the black mass moved slowly until he raised his head. Song An Ning looked carefully for a long time and could barely see the whites of his eyes.
"What happened? What caused it to explode like this?"
Marshal Pan's hair and beard had been burnt to charcoal, his clothes were torn to shreds, and there were many burn marks on his face and arms.
After being asked several times in a row, Old Man Pan seemed to be stunned. He didn't say anything and just sniffed in grievance.
"Xiangxiang checked his body and found that he was probably hit by the gunpowder explosion. The external injuries were minor, but his internal organs were damaged by the huge shock wave.
Fortunately, Old Man Pan has deep internal strength and still has space. If an ordinary person were to suffer this, they would be blown to pieces."
"Hey, if you don't speak, I'm going to use my mind reading skills and leave you no secrets."
This sentence was very effective. As soon as Song An Ning finished talking about mind reading, Marshal Pan stood up and walked unsteadily in the direction Song An Ning had just come from, dropping black residue as he walked...
Song Anning followed behind him, thinking that Marshal Pan was just a strange man to his family. There were many people in his family, including many girls, so it would be inconvenient to do anything.
"Come with me. My old house is at the foot of that mountain. There aren't many people around, so it's a good place to talk. It's also convenient for you to go into the space to recuperate."
"Okay, it's the same everywhere. I can recover faster in this space.
It’s just that I really encountered a difficult situation this time, so I came to you, I’m in trouble…”
"It's okay, it's not a big deal. I just happened to need something from you."
"Huh? What happened? Is there something wrong with the space necklace?"
Marshal Pan coughed twice and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth unnoticeably when he asked this question.
"Don't talk yet, eat this and calm down.
He’s already old, but he’s still holding on…”
Song An Ning took out a physical fitness pill and a large bottle of spiritual spring water from his backpack and asked Old Man Pan to take it.
The space necklace helped Song An Ning a lot. Now that he came to her injured, she couldn't just ignore him.
What's more, she also had selfish motives. Last time she got five martial arts secrets books, Xiangxiang said that if she asked someone with deep internal strength like Marshal Pan to help open up the meridians, and then drink some spiritual spring water, she would get twice the result with half the effort.
After Marshal Pan took the things, he just smelled them and knew that these were rare treasures.
He threw the pill into his mouth and drank two mouthfuls of spiritual spring water. His nose felt sore. As people get older, they tend to become sentimental, especially when they are not feeling well.
Song An Ning sensed his strangeness and just stayed by his side quietly. After arriving at the old house, they closed the gate and went into the house. Old Man Pan looked around, put his hand on Song An Ning's arm, and pulled her into the space bracelet.
After a dizzy spell, the two stood in the courtyard of the space. Song Anning looked around. The environment in the bracelet and the necklace was similar, but the area was dozens of times that of the necklace, and one could even see towering snow-capped mountains.
"Thanks to Aning's medicine, I feel much better now."
"Why are you so polite? I'm still using your space. I'm even plucking the herbs from your space..."
After hearing what Song An Ning said, Marshal Pan chuckled twice, and without further ado, he went straight to talking about what had happened this time.
"Wait a minute, don't sit on the wooden bench with all your injuries. I'll give you two sets of sofas. Use them."
Before speaking, Song Anning waved her hand and bought a sofa and coffee table from the mall. She also asked Xiangxiang to brew a pot of tea with spiritual spring water. She gave Old Man Pan a large bowl of beef noodles. Judging from his appearance, he was so busy escaping yesterday that he had no chance to eat. Finally, she threw him a packet of medicine for burns.
Marshal Pan cursed as he ate his noodles: "That son of a bitch, Ali, has developed a lot of explosives on the island in the south. I don't know what he's going to do with it!"
"What can I do? Didn't I blow it up for you?"
Song Anning joked that every time she talked to Old Man Pan, she felt very relaxed and could say whatever she wanted to say without worrying about her secrets being discovered.
In fact, the same goes for Old Man Pan. In such a big world, he and Song Anning are the only ones who come from another world. They both have their own missions and a common wish: to complete the mission and go home.
So, although they had known each other for only a short time, they were like close friends regardless of age difference and got along very happily.
"I dare say he buried so much explosives, it was definitely not to blow me up, it was more like to blow himself up.
It was just my bad luck that I ran into him."
After the fishing competition ended, Old Man Pan went to the south and searched for a long time before he found Ali's whereabouts. Over the next ten days, the two of them staged a wonderful plot in which Ali escaped and Old Man Pan chased him.
Only yesterday an accident happened. When Old Man Pan found Ali's newest residence, he found that half of the island was covered with explosives. The moment he entered the house, it exploded instantly.
"Although I hid in the space immediately, I was still affected. I was unconscious in the space for a whole night and used a teleportation card to escape to Linhai Town."
Old Man Pan thought for a moment and asked Song An Ning, "Do you have anything that can change your appearance? I got a magic pill before, but I used it up.
When the explosion happened, many people saw my face. If they knew I was not dead, I would be in a lot of trouble later."
She had plenty of Huanyan Pills, but the dozens of pills in her backpack were only for her own use, so she quickly asked Xiangxiang with her mind.
"Of course, this system can do anything. The price is a bit high, I wonder if the owner can afford it."
Song An Ning leaned on the sofa and took a sip of water, then said nonchalantly, "Then I have to ask Old Man Pan if he has any money. He's lived for so many years, so he shouldn't be short of money..."
"Hahaha, that's right, Master, you can also take a cut of it. I bought it for 5,000 taels of silver and sold it for 30,000 taels."
"..."
Song An Ning glanced at Marshal Pan, who was covered in black and looked pitiful. Forget it, forget it. God will strike you down if you cheat the old man out of his money!
"Grandpa Marshal, I can buy the Huanyan Pill here, but the price is a bit expensive. If you are willing, I can buy it for you."
"That……"
Marshal Pan was a little embarrassed. He really hadn't saved much money in these years. He thought for a moment, took out a small box from the house, opened it in front of Song An Ning, and said with some embarrassment:
"To be honest, I haven't made much money in the past few years. With only this much, I don't know if I can afford a Huanyan Pill."
At first, Song An Ning thought that the box was filled with silver ingots, and thought that such a box should be enough for five thousand taels.
When she took a closer look, she couldn't help but shout to Old Man Pan:
"Wow, Grandpa Marshal, you're playing Versailles with me, right?
What poor family can afford to spend a box full of banknotes like you do?"
