Full-Time Magister: I Have a Crafting Spawn
Chapter 46 First Meeting with Old Man Bao
Shanghai, Qingtian Hunting Grounds.
Jiang Chuan and his two companions got out of a taxi.
"I'm finally back alive! The world is so beautiful!" Mo Fan exclaimed, relieved to have survived such a close call.
Lingling remained silent until she reached the Qingtian Hunting Grounds, where she shouted, "Grandpa, Mo Fan almost killed me!!!"
Mo Fan gripped the grass and quickly ran into the Azure Sky Hunting Grounds.
Jiang Chuan thought for a moment, and since he was already here, he figured he might as well go inside and get to know Old Man Bao, so he followed him.
As soon as they stepped across the threshold, they saw Lingling standing with her hands on her hips, accusing Mo Fan in front of Old Man Bao, recounting everything that had happened that day.
Upon seeing Jiang Chuan enter, Lingling pointed at him and said, "This is Jiang Chuan. If he hadn't arrived in time, I would have been eaten by the leader of the Rotten Claw Cave long ago."
Old Man Bao first smiled at Jiang Chuan as he entered, then said seriously to Mo Fan, "You should have contacted the hunting camp immediately after this happened. Luckily, your friend is very strong, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable."
"I was too hasty. I'll definitely contact the hunting lodge first next time." Mo Fan looked embarrassed. In the end, it was his fault that he caused this trouble, so he really didn't dare to be stubborn.
"Your name is Jiang Chuan, right? Thank you so much for saving my granddaughter and my employees. You are a great benefactor to my Qingtian Hunting Grounds." Old Man Bao put away his serious expression and smiled at Jiang Chuan.
"You flatter me, senior," Jiang Chuan replied.
The old man in front of him was unremarkable. If you didn't know beforehand, who would be able to tell that he was a forbidden spell mage and the former head of the Holy Judgment Academy?
These highly skilled elderly people prefer to live a life of quiet seclusion in the city.
"I never expected there to be a commander-level demon in the abandoned mining area at the border of Kunshan. It's not far from the supply line to Shanghai. Although Jiang Chuan has already dealt with it, it's hard to guarantee that there are demons in other places as well... It seems that someone needs to go and check along the supply line." Old Bao pondered.
He looked at Jiang Chuan with a kind smile: "Jiang Chuan, would you be interested in joining our Qingtian Hunting Grounds?"
Lingling's eyes lit up, and she quickly said, "Our Qingtian Hunting Lodge is the strongest in the industry, and our benefits are the best, especially the commission fees—the leasing ...
Jiang Chuan's heart skipped a beat.
If Mo Fan isn't at the Qingtian Hunting Grounds, joining is fine too. After all, it's Old Man Bao's hunting grounds. Money doesn't matter; what's more important is that he can access resources that ordinary people can't access.
But if he joined in, Mo Fan would definitely try to get him to act as a proxy.
Both of the commissions proved that Mo Fan was a jinx, and working with him was too dangerous.
"I've just entered a higher education institution and still have studies to complete, so I'm not considering becoming a hunter for the time being," Jiang Chuan came up with a reason.
"Young man, being a hunter and being a student don't conflict. Look at Mo Fan, he won't be entering a higher education institution until next year, but he still registered as a hunter this year, didn't he?" Old Man Bao laughed.
"That's right, that's right." Lingling nodded repeatedly.
"Old Jiang, why don't you join us? Let's do commissions together and make a fortune!" Mo Fan joined in the persuasion.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuan immediately solidified his resolve: "I still think my studies are more important. Even if I were to join, I'd wait until after graduation. Can you wait until I graduate, senior?"
Old Man Bao chuckled and shook his head: "Since you're not up to it, I won't force you. However, your abilities are perfectly suited to becoming a hunter, which will greatly benefit your magical path."
The help he was referring to was in terms of cultivation resources.
However, Jiangchuan currently has no shortage of cultivation resources, and it will certainly not lack them in the future.
"I understand, I'll think about it carefully," Jiang Chuan said.
Having said all that, Old Man Bao said nothing more, only revealing a meaningful smile.
Lingling managed to exchange contact information with Jiang Chuan before he left.
After Jiang Chuan and Mo Fan left, Old Man Bao looked at Jiang Chuan's departing figure and sighed, "This young man is extraordinary. It's a pity he can't become an employee of our hunting agency."
"Grandpa, let me try to persuade him again," Lingling said, typing a message as she held the communicator.
"What, you really want him to join our hunting party?"
"Yeah, I think he's much more reliable than Mo Fan. If he joins the Hunter's Guild, Grandpa, you have to make him my partner," Lingling said.
Old Bao just smiled.
Based on his understanding of the bloodshed in Bo City, this young man named Jiang Chuan possesses extremely high talent.
If Jiangchuan is allowed to grow, it will surely become a vital national asset in the face of demons.
That overwhelming sea of fire is perfect for demons whose numbers far exceed those of humans!
After leaving Qingtian Hunting Grounds, Jiang Chuan planned to return to school, but Mo Fan invited him to his home for a meal.
Unable to refuse their kind invitation, I had no choice but to go along.
...............
Mo Fan's home in the resettlement community.
"Xinxia, Lao Jiang is here!" Mo Fan shouted as he pushed open the door.
Xinxia came to Shanghai with them and naturally stayed in the resettlement housing. Fortunately, the space was large and she had her own private room.
She usually buries herself in her room to study, working hard for next year's magic college entrance exam.
Upon hearing Mo Fan's voice, Xin Xia happily sat in her wheelchair and went out.
"Brother Jiangchuan!" Xinxia called out sweetly.
"Xinxia has become even more beautiful after not seeing you for several months," Jiang Chuan greeted her with a smile.
No way.
Xinxia's beautiful eyes crinkled into crescent shapes when she smiled.
Mo Fan, standing to the side, complained, "Jiang Chuan, Jiang Chuan, it's always Jiang Chuan! I, your brother Mo Fan, almost died out there!"
"what!"
Xinxia exclaimed in surprise and quickly asked what had happened.
Mo Fan didn't want Xin Xia to worry too much, so he waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, it's all in the past. We owe this all to Lao Jiang; I really need to thank him properly today. Where's Dad? Isn't he home?"
Xinxia was eager to know what Mo Fan had been through during this time, but being perceptive, she knew what Mo Fan was thinking, so she could only say, "It's good that you're alright," and then talk about Mo Jiaxing's whereabouts.
"My uncle found a new job and left early this morning. He said he won't be back until tonight."
"You're not coming back until tonight? What about your lunch? You're not very mobile, are you going to cook for yourself?" Mo Fan said, about to call Mo Jiaxing.
"No, Uncle asked the lady upstairs to bring me a meal, and I've already finished it all. It was delicious!" Xinxia quickly said.
"What about dinner?"
"I had my aunt bring it over too," Xinxia replied.
"Alright."
Mo Fan put down his phone, gestured for Jiang Chuan to sit down, and then went to take a shower. The stench emanating from his body was still very strong and he couldn't stand it anymore.
Jiang Chuan and Xin Xia were left alone in the living room.
Before Xinxia could speak, Jiang Chuan interrupted, "Xinxia, how have you been feeling about your self-study these past few months? Has it been effective?"
From the beginning of junior high school, he would tutor Xinxia from time to time, so Xinxia's grades were much better than in the original timeline.
