"Then where does Master think I come from?"
To be honest, some fabricated origins may be able to hide the low-level people in Panshi Village, but they certainly cannot hide it from old foxes like Kongming Shenmon.
After all, the Xingluo Domain is still too small for an unknown martial arts master to suddenly appear.
"It should be Daqian!"
The old monk said in an affirmative tone.
Fang Yuan felt ashamed.
All right! Because he had Yang Fan's real dream experience, his Daganyu was so smooth that even the Kongming Divine Monk immediately misunderstood him.
"Is it possible that Dagan is very close to here? Or is there no other gathering place around here?"
Fang Yuan asked with a half-smile.
"oh?"
Monk Kongming was startled, and the speed of twirling the beads in his hand suddenly accelerated: "Isn't the layman from Daqian? Does that mean he comes from the Hanhai Desert? Or the Wangui Stream? The Corridor of Death?"
"These places are the landmarks behind Xingluo City?"
Fang Yuan was silent and didn't answer, but he was thinking silently in his heart, wishing he could capture the monk directly and use the method of entering dreams.
"Or...are they from the south? Impossible!"
The monk turned his head: "No one can break through the hell gate of Binggu!"
Seeing his decisive tone, Fang Yuan thought about it. If he hadn't broken through the realm of Tongmai, and by chance, his physical body was extremely strong, it would indeed be difficult to cross the line of death.
In fact, the monk was simply frightened by the danger. At least Fang Yuan knew that no less than three people had successfully broken through the gate of hell and reached the Yuanwu Hundred Kingdoms behind.
"Well, what's the use of delving into my origins?"
He smiled slightly and spoke directly.
"That's right, it's Lao Na who is in trouble!"
Kongming Divine Monk seemed to have a profound enlightenment, and saluted Fang Yuan again: "I wonder what the donor is here for?"
In fact, although Xingluo City is isolated, the top management also has certain exchanges with several other areas. However, the traffic is too congested and even the transmission of information is difficult, which makes him unable to determine Fang Yuan's identity.
"I don't have any plans, I'm just casually traveling!"
Fang Yuan seemed to have no intention of saying, "But I heard that Xingluo City's formation method is unparalleled in the world, so I came here specifically to broaden my horizons..."
"Haha... This is just spreading rumors, and the world is praising you!"
Kongming Divine Monk shook his head, but Fang Yuan couldn't hide the hint of pride at the bottom of his eyes.
"It's just that I saw something strange while on the road. I want to pay a visit to the city lord. Is it convenient?"
Fang Yuan stared at the Kongming Divine Monk and said suddenly.
"Even though the Lord of the City has many things to do, if he hears that your Majesty is coming, he will definitely sweep up his bed to welcome you!"
Monk Kongming clasped his hands together: "But what is that strange thing that the layman saw?"
"I passed by a village named Hongye! The whole village was massacred. It was so miserable... I couldn't bear to see it."
Fang Yuan said leisurely, and suddenly saw the movement of Kongming Divine Monk's hand speeding up: "The rumors about ghosts cannot be believed, but I am very interested in this curse and want to contribute!"
"Amitabha, if you are a layman with a kind heart, you will definitely have blessings in the future!"
The old monk Kongming nodded and said: "I will definitely inform you about this matter, but how the city lord responds is not something I can comment on..."
"Well… "
At this moment, there was a cry of surprise from the ground.
Zhang Kongfan covered his head and got up. When he saw Fang Yuan, his face was filled with horror: "What on earth did you... do to me?"
"Ahem..."
Monk Kongming coughed, which immediately made Zhang Kongfan react and salute: "Master!"
"Well, this layman is a senior, so why would he deliberately embarrass you?"
Kongming Divine Monk scolded Fang Yuan for a few words, and said to Fang Yuan: "My young disciple is naughty and has not entered the Brahma sect. He is just a lay disciple. I have offended many people today. Please forgive me! Kongfan! Why don't you apologize to the layman immediately?"
"As you command!"
After all, the master's orders cannot be violated. Seeing that his master was always polite in front of Fang Yuan, Zhang Kongfan lost his confidence and immediately saluted Fang Yuan: "I offended my senior, I hope you will forgive me!"
The fat shopkeeper Hai Fu faintly woke up and almost fainted when he saw this scene.
When did the formation master with his eyes turned to the sky treat a person with such caution
"That's it!"
Fang Yuan waved his hand, he was not interested in shrimps or anything like that.
Besides, this Zhang Kongfan was also unlucky. The apology he gave was enough, so he didn't bother to pursue anything further.
"Thank you, layman!"
Kongming Divine Monk was overjoyed, and Zhang Kongfan next to him had to bow aggrievedly, and Haifu wished he was still fainting. Unfortunately, his state could not be concealed from anyone present, but no one noticed.
"I wonder if the layman has a place to stay in Xingluo City?"
Monk Kongming asked: "If I haven't made a decision at the moment, the monk's Sambhogakaya Temple will be relatively quiet..."
"Well, thank you very much, Master!"
Fang Yuan stood up, bowed gracefully, and walked out of the monastery together with the old monk.
Zhang Kongfan followed behind like a slave. He felt extremely aggrieved but had no place to vent. He could only glare at Haifu fiercely before turning around and going out.
Haifu looked at this scene and felt like crying...
…
On the avenue, Fang Yuan and Kongming Divine Monk were walking side by side. When the soldiers on both sides saw it, they all bowed respectfully and stepped aside. It was obvious that this old monk had a high status in the city. After all, he was an array master at the Juyuan realm.
"What do you think of this city's formation, layman?"
Kongming Divine Monk asked seemingly casually.
"Very good... If I'm not mistaken, this formation should be based on the four phases. The four spirits of Qinglong, White Tiger, Suzaku and Xuanwu correspond to the four gates. It's watertight... It's just that the southern Suzaku's formation eyes seem to be a little different. It shouldn't be The traditional four-phase spiritual formation is a variant!”
Although Fang Yuan is not a formation master, there are really few who can match him in terms of breadth of knowledge. He immediately made a casual comment, which immediately made the Kongming Divine Monk have a look of surprise on his face: "The layman has a bright eye, but he has also trained in the formation method. ?”
Zhang Kongfan, who was following behind, also looked surprised and a little ashamed.
Since Fang Yuan is proficient in the art of formations, his previous behavior of using formations to peek was indeed like a blatant provocation, and he was definitely going to suffer.
"The formation is infinitely mysterious and unfathomable. How can I say that I am a minor? I just dabbled a little bit, it's not like I'm blind..."
Fang Yuan smiled slightly.
In fact, with Zhang Kongfan's experience and his previous foundation, his attainments in formations at this time are no less than those of those apprentices. However, he may still be lacking in proficiency, but it is just a matter of more practice.
"I see!"
Kongming Divine Monk laughed, but obviously didn't believe it.
After all, it took a lot of effort to get started with this formation method. He intuitively felt that the person in front of him was still very young. He was already extremely talented if he could practice martial arts. How could he have such attainments in formations if he dabbled casually? Doesn’t that mean that their seniors have all lived like dogs
"Because the south has to face the Ice Valley Wasteland, there are many abnormalities. The defensive formation of Xingluo City does have special changes. The fire-moving Suzaku in the south is the location of the strongest formation..."
However, after all, the old monk was deep in the city and did not get entangled any further. Instead, he introduced Fang Yuan with a smile: "Moreover, there is a layer of change hidden in the formation!"
"Oh? What's the change?"
Although Fang Yuan asked questions, he raised his head and looked at the sky.
"It seems that the layman has discovered something. Yes, this kind of change must be found from the origin of Xingluo City! It is the trump card that our city can stand today!"
As the monk Kongming spoke, there was a hint of pride on his face.
"This is something I need to ask for advice from!"
Fang Yuan made a modest gesture and suddenly turned his eyes towards a certain market.
Over there, a faint quarrel came, but it was the Panshi Village group.
"how?"
Monk Kongming stopped and asked, "Where are you interested, layman?"
"Not bad, I met a few destined people!"
Fang Yuan spoke calmly.
"In that case, it's worth a visit!"
Kongming Divine Monk clasped his hands together, looking like a master, and the group immediately turned around and entered the market.
…
"It's too much!"
Yu Jian's face turned red and he pointed at a businessman: "This is the best black rice and animal skins we have! It was clearly promised that we would exchange green salt for refined iron, but you actually sent us away with inferior salt and crude iron!" "
"hey-hey… "
The businessman he was pointing at touched his whiskers, his little eyes full of shrewdness: "Who said the goods you gave me are good ones? They are obviously rubbish, so if you can give me these, it's great! What? You still want to come here?" Is there trouble in the city?"
Those who can open a trading house here naturally have support, and they are also residents of Xingluo City. Even if the guards are called, it is hard to say which one they will favor in the end.
"Yu Jian, don't be impulsive!"
Just when Yu Jian was about to pounce on him with all his strength, Li Hu put a big hand directly on his right shoulder and held him down.
"Forget it! We won't do this transaction! Give me back our goods!"
Li Hu looked at the businessman coldly, with a trace of murderous intent in his eyes.
"Can!"
The profiteer smiled: "But you only gave me 30 tons of low-quality black rice and 200 pieces of broken skin. It's really not worth a lot of money..."
"you… "
Li Hu was secretly angry.
He thought that the other party was in a hurry to put the goods into storage from the beginning. It was obvious that they had already planned to trick them.
At this time, no matter how good-tempered he was, he couldn't help but want to kill someone and grabbed the handle of the knife.
"Guard! Guard!"
The profiteer hid quickly and immediately screamed.
"What's up?"
A group of patrolling soldiers came over immediately. The leader had a deep aura and actually had the cultivation level of the Four Heavenly Gates.
"Sir... these foreigners are using inferior products as good products to bully our local people!"
If a profiteer dares to attack him, he naturally has someone to rely on. One of his brothers-in-law is still a leader in the patrol team.
Without this relationship, they would not come out to cheat.
"I see!"
The captain was also familiar with him. He glanced at Yu Jian and others with disdain and waved his hand: "Catch them all!"
