Huang Zhong did not refuse Fang Lin Xian's hospitality. He took the grilled fish and ate it and said:
"In my entire life as a soldier, I have become accustomed to inspecting the terrain before setting up camp. After turning around here, I will go back. Www!QuAnBen-XIaoShuo!comYou must not underestimate this half-hour inspection. In this life, you have already saved the world. I’ve been here three times.”
Fang Lin listened to Huang Zhong talk about the past with great interest on his face. He accompanied Huang Zhong on his inspection, and then he asked casually:
"Old General Huang, your martial arts are very superb. I wonder if you can teach me some of them?"
Huang Zhong said straightforwardly:
"I think your group has returned from the Western Region, so you are not suitable for learning most of our martial arts. However, since you can be affected by the Crane Wing Formation, it means that you may have some talent in this area."
Fang Lin came here just for this reason and said with great joy:
"Then how can I learn the Crane Wing Formation?"
Fang Lin naturally refused to let go of such powerful continuous skills as Crane Wing Formation! Huang Zhong smiled but did not answer. Fang Lin knew that the time for this matter was not yet mature and the activation conditions had not been met. He was not in a hurry, so he changed his mind and talked about other things.
Not long after Huang Zhong completed his inspection, Fang Lin also returned to the camp. He suddenly remembered that Craftsman Fu could also appraise skills. It happened that the silver plot equipment he had just obtained: Li Dian's headscarf, still needed to be appraised before it could be displayed. remaining attributes. He was called over immediately.
Craftsman Fu claimed the throne in front of the four minions in blue and the elite fat men, showing a typical big brother style. But when he saw Fang Lin shouting, he ran over in fear. Fang Lin first gently comforted him a few words, and then took the equipment. came out and asked him for help. Craftsman Fu waved his hands repeatedly and said in fear:
"With such a valuable item, a villain with low skills really dare not make a mistake and take care of it without authorization. Even if he can barely identify its true origin and attributes, it is very likely to devalue it and damage it."
Fang Lin heard what he said was reasonable. No longer reluctant, he waved his hand pleasantly and let him go. Suddenly he saw the thin and short bodies of this pair of craftsmen trembling in the night wind. Fang Lin's heart moved and he took a piece of Sichuan brocade from the space that he had previously cut. The "fine brocade" was delivered directly to him and said:
"You've been in the water for a long time today, so wrap it up in this and sleep."
Craftsman Fu was stunned and said in a trembling voice:
"How can an adult reward such a precious thing to a villain? Really to a villain?!"
Although Fang Lin felt a little painful in his heart. But thinking that the potential main thread of the Three Kingdoms world is loyalty and righteousness, not to mention that the role played by these craftsmen is actually quite important, he smiled and nodded:
"Yes. You have contributed a lot along the way, so take it with peace of mind."
Craftsman Fu glanced at Fang Lin gratefully, kowtowed and left happily. The remaining Pu Sword and Shield wielder looked at him with an extremely envious look, and Craftsman Fu's vanity was fully satisfied at this moment. So he showed off by wrapping the fine brocade around his body, which looked quite nondescript. Combined with the arrogant and triumphant face of a villain, it was really hard to laugh at. It took Fang Lin a lot of perseverance to hold back his smile.
… … ..
Because Fang Lin had a topographic map of Shanyang County in his hand, their progress on the second day was not greatly hindered. After walking for less than two hours, they arrived at Gaoping, the first county of Shanyang County, and Li Dian's military camp was not far from here.
At this time, it is natural to give priority to Hu Huahao's job transfer task. Fang Lin asked Craftsman Fu to put down the wooden ox. Disguised as his own servants, he went into the city together to find out the truth. By the way, Huang Zhong was asked to take some current money to pay the craftsmen. Lao Hu and others were hiding in the mountains and forests not far from Li Dian's military camp, closely observing his movements. Especially the new reinforcements of the elite Tiger and Leopard Cavalry of Cao's army. Although the bridge was burned and blocked their way, they should have arrived after such a long delay.
Craftsman Fu was so grateful to Fang Lin that he had no objection to going into the city together. He put down the wooden ox, kicked the huge elite fat man a few times, ordered it to look after him, and then farted with joy and followed.
Craftsman Fu nodded and followed Fang Lin along the way. He really looked like a follower. However, Fang Lin saw that the clothes of the two of them were a bit shabby, so he spent dozens of points from the nightmare mark to redress them. So the two of them walked on the road one behind the other, really looking like a young master from a wealthy family with a diligent follower.
When we arrived at the gate of Gaoping County, there were exactly ten soldiers guarding it, which was equivalent to the number of soldiers under normal circumstances.
times. The search was also quite rigorous. The impressive portraits on the announcement at the city gate include Fang Lin, Lao Hu, and the elite fat man.
But except for Huang Zhong, who still has a forty or five-fifth similarity in appearance, the images of the rest of them can be said to have been greatly artistically rendered, especially the elite fat man and Lao Hu, whose looks are almost copied from the ghost-catching picture. down. It can be seen that the painter has a very deep foundation in ink painting, but whether it looks like him or not is another matter...
It didn't take much effort to enter the city gate. The craftsman was clever and stuffed a handful of five coins directly. The soldier in charge of the inspection didn't even hesitate. He grabbed the money with great skill and did not hesitate. He weighed them one by one, took some pieces of money into his teeth and took a few bites. Finally, he snorted and waved his hand and said:
"go in."
Fang Lin smiled slightly. On the way into the city gate, he already had a general understanding of the county here. As the saying goes, you can know the whole thing by looking at a small part. This Gaoping County is not very big. The military discipline at the gate is so corrupt. Entering the city gate Most of the people here have pretty faces and are skinny. The virtue of the county captain who governs this place can naturally be inferred that they are inseparable from each other, so their nickname is very cool-"The sky is three feet high"!
After entering the city, Fang Lin asked the craftsman Fu Huo to find out where the medical center in the city was located. Unfortunately, several people he asked shook their heads. The last old woman selling vegetables on the street sighed and said, "It's two A few months ago, Dr. Zhao, the famous doctor, was framed by a scoundrel and expelled from Gaoping County by that damn county magistrate. Now if he gets sick, he can only go to the herbal stall in the market to grab some medicine. If it cannot be cured well, then we have to leave it to fate.
After learning this information, Fang Lin was keenly aware of the possible mission clues contained in it. He just hurriedly inquired about the whereabouts of the famous doctor Dr. Zhao, but was told that it was not clear. He could not find any clues when he asked the old woman again. So Fang Lin walked back to the street and found a pub to sit down.
Life was difficult at that time. In addition to hunting in the wild and catching birds and animals, even in the city, meat was only available on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. Fang Lin ordered a plate of fragrant beans, shredded braised tofu, and vegetables. Scrambled eggs and five pancakes were taken out. I also ordered an extra pot of turbid wine. I only ate a little and then put my chopsticks away. The craftsman Fu actually ate with gusto.
Seeing that there were fewer people in the tavern, Fang Lin casually rewarded the waiter with five big bucks. Intentionally or unintentionally, he asked the waiter about Dr. Zhao. The hotel was next to a crossroads, and of course there was news about people coming and going. He was well-informed, and the waiter in the shop knew everything about the reward when he received the reward. He said that there were many rumors about Dr. Zhao. Some said that he went to the nearby countryside to become a herbalist, and some said that he returned to his hometown with the money. At that time, he was killed by Zhou Wei, a tyrant in the city. Some said that he had safely moved back to his hometown in Xuzhou half a month ago.
Fang Lin frowned after hearing this. Although he was confident that he would be able to find out the whereabouts of Dr. Zhao in the end, it would take a lot of time. The remaining short hours may not be able to achieve the goal, but instead a lot of time is wasted. So Fang Lin immediately adopted the second plan he had planned in advance.
"Let's go." Fang Lin stood up and said with a smile. The craftsman stood up in a hurry, stuffing food into his mouth and taking money out of his arms. Looking like a starving ghost reincarnated, Fang Lin laughed hoarsely and said:
"Don't be in a hurry. If you're not full, pack it up and eat on the go."
"Pack it up?" Craftsman Fu was choking down a piece of biscuit. He looked like a skinny goose with his long and thin neck stretched out. He immediately choked and rolled his eyes, picked up the wine bottle and drank heavily.
Fang Lin shook his head helplessly, begged for a lotus leaf from the vendor across the street, wrapped the remaining dishes and two pancakes in it, and threw it directly to the craftsman next to him who was beating his chest and wiping his back. He said angrily:
"What was I doing to begin with?"
"I'm wrapping the leftovers in lotus leaves." The craftsman Fu said in a daze, and then he finally said with enlightenment:
"Oh! So this is just packing, and the villain has learned a lot again!"
