"you..."
"Do you really think you can threaten me?"
"Do you believe it or not, I will make you disappear forever now?"
Lin Ran is now recognized as the strongest among the younger generation in the southern region. How could he be threatened by an unarmed old man?
Regardless of who this old man is, he will definitely not be able to swallow this breath.
Seeing Lin Ran's murderous eyes, the old man's attitude immediately softened.
"Oh, young man, you have such a bad temper. Let's do this. I won't need the good wine and food. Let me stay at your place for a while. I promise I won't delay your business."
"If you don't believe me, you can ask these three guys behind you. I work honestly every day and even help you bring customers." The old man smiled at Lin Ran and said.
To be honest, the identity of this old man really made Lin Ran very curious.
No matter how you look at these three stand-ins, they are no different from normal people. Even if a powerful nine-star expert comes to the store and perceives the three stand-ins, he will only think that they are ordinary people.
And this old man has neither any cultivation nor anything special, so why can he see through it at a glance?
What surprised Lin Ran the most was that there was only one elevator open in his store, and it could only lead to the second and third floors. It was impossible for anyone to reach the fourth and fifth floors. How could this old man know that there was a seal?
The more Lin Ran thought about it, the more incredible it became.
So he turned to the old man and said, "Old man, I can let you stay, but you have to tell me how you learned that these three clerks of mine are not human beings."
"Also, there are seals on the fourth and fifth floors of my shop. How did you know about it?"
As if he expected Lin Ran to say this, the old man naturally sat on the sofa nearby and said calmly: "Then even if you agree, you can't deceive the old man."
"First of all, although your three clerks look very much like humans, and although I am not an animal trainer and have no cultivation, I can clearly feel that they have no souls and are just like puppets."
"As for the fourth and fifth floors, although I have never been there, when I went to the third floor in the past few days, I clearly noticed that there seemed to be a very powerful seal upstairs."
"Of course, everything is just my old man's guess, but from your reaction just now, I think you are right." The old man ate snacks calmly while talking to Lin Ran.
"Can you tell that my three clerks have no souls?"
"Can you still feel the seal upstairs while standing on the third floor?"
"I'll go! Old man, what the hell are you!"
"Could it be some mythical beast that transformed into a human?" Lin Ran said in shock.
"Alien beasts transformed into humans? What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think this is possible?" The old man laughed.
"Maybe it's a talent of mine. I can always see things that ordinary people can't see." The old man said to the side in a dazed manner.
"Good guy, it seems that this old man is definitely not simple."
Alien beasts transformed into humans. This was just what Lin Ran said casually. It was obviously impossible, but there was no doubt that there was something wrong with this old man.
Although he was crazy at times, Lin Ran would never forget the change in his eyes at that moment.
"So what's your name?" Lin Ran asked while looking at the old man.
"Name? Hahaha! I don't remember it a long time ago." When the old man was asked about his name, his face was blank, as if he had lost his memory.
"By the way, I forgot what it's called, but I have this thing on me."
The old man took out a small golden sign from his arms, with one word clearly engraved on it, cloud!
"This is..." Lin Ran was shocked when he saw the word "cloud" engraved on the sign.
My mind quickly recalled the boy from the Yun tribe I met in the southern region.
Could it be that this old man is from the Yun Clan?
No, isn't the Yun Clan in Yanglin City in the western region? This old man is obviously an ordinary person. It is impossible for him to come all the way from the western continent to the southern region alone.
So what does this brand represent?
The more Lin Ran thought about it, the more confused he became, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
Since he has this brand, he is probably from the Yun Clan. In the secret realm in the southern region, Lin Ran has a good impression of the young man from the Yun Clan. If this old man is really from the Yun Clan, let him live temporarily. In the store, it is not a bad idea.
Anyway, the old man can't get in on the fourth or fifth floors no matter what.
"That's all, for the sake of respecting the elderly and caring for the young, I will reluctantly let you live here." Lin Ran breathed a sigh of relief and said, "But remember, don't touch the things in my shop. Otherwise I will still drive you away."
"Haha! Thank you very much, young man. He is such a warm-hearted and good young man." The old man was very happy when he heard that Lin Ran was willing to let him stay.
"I almost had to sell this sign, but luckily I was smart enough to keep it." The old man touched the golden sign in his hand.
"You want to sell it?" Lin Ran's mouth suddenly trembled, then he looked at the old man and said, "I don't want you to live in vain, give me your sign."
This brand looks gleaming and is definitely made of valuable materials. This old man obviously doesn't know the meaning of this brand. It would be bad if he really sells it.
In this case, it is better to ask for it first, and wait until the finals of the Beast Tamer Alliance Competition begin to see if there are any people from the Yun Clan in Yaoguang City. By then, hand the sign to them, and they should be able to know this old man. identity.
"Why do you want it?" The old man was about to put it away, but suddenly he was stunned, so he smiled evilly and said, "I can give it to you, a bottle of wine every day..."
"Get out of here, you kid, if you don't give me anything, get out of here right now." Lin Ran didn't want to talk nonsense and said directly.
"Forget it, I'll give it to you." The old man quickly threw the gold sign to Lin Ran.
The old man really didn't know what this brand was, and he would sell it sooner or later if he kept it on him. It would be better to give it to Lin Ran in exchange for a long-term meal ticket.
"That's right."
After Lin Ran took the golden sign, he felt it carefully and found that the sign was not only made of gold nuggets, but also contained a strange fluctuation of star power, which was very magical.
Then he immediately received it into the star ring and said to the old man: "As long as you don't touch my things, you can do whatever you like."
After Lin Ran said these words, he entered the exclusive elevator directly and headed to the third floor of the store.
