"Then what happened next?"
Jiang Fan chuckled and motioned for Duan Ping to refill the water for him. In order to listen to him continue, Duan Ping worked hard to bring hot water, added a pinch of tea, and refilled Jiang Fan's cup.
"Then I started."
Everyone came to the spirit at once.
What's the point of arguing about a thousand words and ten thousand words? Who can point to the battle of mouth and fly to become a fairy? Whether it works or not, we still have to fight to find out.
"The new city lord may look elegant and young, but the one from Beifu City does have two brushes, and all three of them were knocked down by him. He didn't even use ten tricks. Actually, I heard Master said, this is just a competition, if it is really a life-and-death fight, he probably won't be able to use all three moves."
Everyone exclaimed: "So powerful?"
"Is it also a sword?"
"In that case, isn't it an exaggeration?"
Someone asked, "Where is Big Brother Bi?"
This question made Jiang Fan happy: "How does this compare? The two of them didn't do anything. But in my opinion, they might be on par."
Mo Chen nodded and said: "According to what you said, this City Lord Li should be stronger than me, so you don't have to put gold on my face."
Jiang Fan chuckled.
Of course he doesn't want to make others lose his prestige.
Li Cheng is mainly because he can't even beat the big brother, so even if he becomes the city lord, he won't last long. If Beifucheng wants to support a puppet, it will not find a soft-legged shrimp that cannot be supported. Anyone who goes up and knocks down with three punches and two kicks, and Beifucheng's face will be thrown to the ground and trampled.
"What he uses is not a sword, but a spear." Jiang Fan added: "It's rare for people to use this."
Everyone in the hall looks at me and I look at you.
Indeed, there are very few schools with guns.
Most of them use swords, but there are also various other weapons. But not many use guns.
"The whole spear is much longer than ordinary spears. Its body is pitch black, with coral tassels on it. When it dances, there is only a smear of bright red on the black shadow of the spear, and you can't see anyone."
It is said that a long weapon is strong in its momentum, and a country farmer uses a wooden stick to make a tiger who can dance with a little strength, but the long spear of this city lord Li looks so extraordinary that it dances without making a sound.
Although Jiang Fan didn't know marksmanship, he was so stunned by City Lord Li that he forgot to blink, and immediately put away the underestimation he felt when he first saw this man.
Don't look at the fact that the elders of Beifu City manipulated him behind his back as the city lord, but if he put himself in his position, he might not be able to do better than him.
"What happened later? No one else went up to fight? I can't believe that so many people went there, but he couldn't be left alone?"
On the side, Shao Jinming said Duan Ping: "You see what you said. If a senior like Master doesn't want to fight for the city lord, how can he go to fight with a junior? Even if he wins, doesn't he have a good face?"
Duan Ping hurriedly said: "That's right, I was thinking about it."
Beifucheng might think so. If they really brought out an older and famous person, it would be hard to say how to deal with the situation today. But they just got a young man to come out, it looks like a joke, so many guests, how can they make themselves into a joke with their self-respecting status
Besides, the troubled waters in Beifu City seem to be difficult to get into, and most people don't want to disturb this trouble. If one city lord of Song could die, wouldn't it be possible to die a second or a third? Who knows how many schemes there are in the city lord's mansion
"The seal was accepted later." Jiang Fan spread his hands: "There is still a banquet in Beifucheng, but most of the people left after the acceptance ceremony, and the master didn't want to stay longer, so we came back."
Mo Chen said softly: "This City Lord Li doesn't sound simple."
Jiang Fan nodded: "Brother is right. I think so too."
He felt that although the young City Lord Li seemed to have been kicked out of the market, he seemed to have both real skills and a calm mind. He looked calm and did not lose his demeanor. A man at the mercy of others.
It's hard to say, but in the future, this city lord will really be able to justify his name.
After drinking the tea, eating the lo mei and dim sum, and hearing the excitement, the others dispersed, and Jiang Fan and Mo Chen went back to the room. Xiaodong thoughtfully brought over a pair of soft-soled shoes worn in the house: "Brother, change a pair of shoes, your feet have been covered in the boots for a long time, let's relax."
Jiang Fan smiled and praised him: "It's still the junior brother who is considerate, well, it's because the senior brother taught him well."
After changing his shoes and sitting down, Jiang Fan told his elder brother some things he hadn't said in front of everyone just now, and of course, Xiaodong heard them all.
"At today's banquet, everyone regarded Ji Zhenzhen as, um, Master's Taoist companion..." Jiang Fan paused, focusing on the second half of the sentence: "Both Master and Ji Zhenren did not deny it."
Mo Chen nodded: "I see."
Just say "I got it"? Looking at the situation, they really want more than one mistress! She is also a moody and temperamental teacher who seems to be very difficult to get along with.
"Ji Zhenren is actually a frank and honest person, and it's not difficult to get along with her."
Jiang Fan said shyly: "Senior brother is right..."
After all, the affairs of the master are beyond the control of their apprentices. If Master himself likes it, then they should try their best to treat Master's wife as filial as Master.
"One more thing." Jiang Fan said: "When I came back, I was going to the door. Master met an acquaintance."
"What acquaintance?"
"It's not a cultivator, but an ordinary person, but he knows the master, as if he knew the master when he was a teenager, and he hasn't seen him for many years. That man seems to be quite old, but the master doesn't look much older than when he was young. So he recognized it, came over and said a few words to Master, and invited Master to come to his house when he is free."
Master has been away from his homeland for many years, and his childhood friend is still alive, which is rare.
Mo Chen also told Jiang Fan what happened today.
Speaking of it, Jiang Fan was also a little ashamed: "I haven't practiced diligently in kung fu these days, and my progress has stagnated. From tomorrow onwards, I will have to work hard."
There is so much to do. They must bring Chen Jingzhi back and deal with them according to the rules of the sect, and also bring Linglong and Zhai Wenhui back, and take revenge on those who murdered them. How to repair the formation of Huiliu Mountain? The master just had an idea and needed manpower, and he sent someone to urge the juniors to practice and improve...
After such a calculation, he was so busy that he didn't even have the time to close his eyes.
"Tong Hao didn't seem to let go of what happened last time, but instead thought more narrowly."
When he said this, Xiaodong had already been sent away by Mo Chen.
Jiang Fan was not surprised at all when the elder brother said so.
If it's another person, it may take a while to figure it out after being depressed. But Tong Hao, he is a person with deep thoughts and small minds, and he doesn't have much contact with people. Just now he came back with food, everyone ate happily, only took a piece of snack, it seemed that he didn't put it in his mouth in the end.
In order to say this, the elder brother dismissed the younger brother, which made Jiang Fan have to think too much.
"Does he still remember the little junior brother?"
"I'm not sure either, you look back and find an opportunity to persuade him."
Jiang Fan agreed straight away: "Elder brother, don't worry, I will definitely persuade him well."
But both of them also knew that Tong Hao was very stubborn, so persuading him might not be helpful.
"Brother, it seems that we will have to live in Beifu City for a while. Last time, Master said that the house needs to be repaired..."
"This matter is not easy to handle in the cold weather, let's talk about it when the weather warms up."
When Xiaodong came back, Mo Chen and the others were already discussing completely irrelevant topics, Xiaodong interjected: "Wait for the weather to be warmer? Even if we have to wait for half a year, it's hard to say if we can't live here." .”
I heard that the warm weather in Beifu City only lasts for four months, and the rest of the time is very cold.
"There is also Huiliu Mountain. At that time, Master Hu said that he would send people to investigate on a regular basis, and he would send a letter... Ordinarily, this letter should arrive soon."
The Huiliu Mountain is now empty, and they went down the mountain this time to put it bluntly as an asylum. The formation on Huiliu Mountain has been in operation for many years. It is irretrievable who set up the formation back then, but the unique knowledge of the formation has been lost. People nowadays can't say that they can set up the formation, but they can repair it a little bit. The master took them down the mountain, fearing that if the formation backfires, the consequences... I'm afraid Huiliu Mountain will destroy the family.
If they can't find a way to repair the formation, even if they go back in the future, the formation will only gradually collapse and eventually die.
The last time Master went to the City Lord's Mansion, he also wanted to ask the City Lord Song about a senior. This senior spent his whole life on formations. Even if it is impossible to restore this unique skill, he still knows much more than others .
But I didn't expect that the Lord Song City was killed on that day... This is really too coincidental. Of course, we can't complain that City Lord Song died at an inappropriate time, we can only say that the murderer was too vicious.
Those people in the City Lord's Mansion didn't want to find that creepy murderer, but were in a hurry to fight for power. It was really chilling to bring out a new City Lord first.
Mo Chen went to the master's place, Jiang Fan turned around and went to find Tong Hao. As a result, when it was almost time for dinner, Li's house had guests.
The person who came was the one Jiang Fan mentioned, an acquaintance of the master in the past.
He was still a young man back then, but his master embarked on the road of cultivation, and now it seems that he is still in his prime. However, his partner in his youth was already full of hair, his back was crooked and his teeth were out of place, and it was embarrassing to see that one foot was about to step into the coffin.
"It's no wonder that everyone wants to seek the Tao and cultivate immortality. Life is only a few dozen years, and life, old age, sickness and death, suffering far outweighs happiness."
But the road of cultivating the Tao is not something that everyone can walk on. Only after walking on this road do we know that it is not a smooth road.
After sending the old man away, Jiang Fan and Shao Jinming planned to lock the door, as it was already dark and no one would come to the door.
But at this moment a guest knocked on the door knocker.
Jiang Fan was a little surprised, and asked who it was through the door. (to be continued)
