Chapter 159: Dart Game and Personal Affairs
Zhou Fang asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
The young man said: "It is said that a disciple of the Overlord Sect was chasing someone, and he died in our Yangzhou City!"
The legendary disciples of the major sects have come a lot, and they are tracking down the murderer, and our city lord is trembling every day, like thin ice. β
Zhou Fang was taken aback: "How did the disciple of the Great Sect die here?"
The young man shook his head: "I don't know the specifics, what has eaten all the internal organs, I heard people say...... It was eaten by a youkai named Hengxian!"
Hengxian scolded secretly, damn, he has become a monster.
However, the disciples of the Great Sect died here, and their internal organs were eaten, presumably ...... The demon did it, right?
I remember that the capital of Sang Kingdom was in chaos that day, Kurosawa used his little demons to block the big hand, and then ran away by himself, and the demons of Red Silver must have survived and fled in all directions.
Someone's got a demon escaping here, right?
It's okay this way, they are busy chasing and killing monsters, and they are more relaxed, and they have "heavenly trigrams" to help hide their whereabouts, and they are not afraid of being discovered.
Here Zhou Fang and the young man had finished chatting, and continued to go to the dart bureau with Hengxian, and said worriedly as he walked: "I'm afraid that our Yangzhou City is going to be chaotic, those big disciples are not terrible, what is terrible is that there are demons, to be honest, although I have been traveling south and north for a few years, I rarely see demons." β
Hengxian said indifferently: "Don't be nervous, maybe the demon is gone?"
Zhou Fang shook his head and said: "You are not a monk, you don't understand, they said that the masters of the great sect have calculated that the demon is still hiding in the city,
Those demons are good at change and scheming, maybe they will become someone around us, you ...... It's not going to be a demon, is it?"
After speaking, he looked at Hengxian with a nervous face.
Hengxian said with a serious face: "Actually, I am Hengxian!"
"Poof! haha......" Zhou Fang laughed and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be funny, little clerk, if that Hengxian is as handsome and elegant as you, the old lady will immediately throw himself into his arms!"
Hengxian smiled along with it.
The two chatted while walking, and it didn't take long to arrive at the "Zhenyuan Dart Bureau".
The dart bureau is located in the rich area in the east of the city, covering an extremely wide area, and the faΓ§ade is also tall and mighty, very magnificent, and the two rows of guards have a serious face, which does not look like a dart game, but like a yamen!
Zhou Fang proudly introduced: "Although our Zhenyuan Dart Bureau is not among the four major families, it is also a well-known signboard in Yangzhou City, known as the West Factory and the East Dart!"
Hengxian casually mentioned curiously: "West Factory?"
Zhou Fang said: "It's Xicheng River Wharf, a group of workers who take water transportation, they have founded a sea and land factory, and there are also masters in it, and we are on an equal footing with our Zhenyuan Dart Bureau!"
Hengxian was not interested and nodded.
The two entered the dart board from the small door, inside is a large courtyard with eight in and eight out, the first three are the hall entrance of the dart board, the east is the next person, the clerk, and the west is the dart master,
The three courtyards inside are the inner houses of the main family.
Zhou Fang took Hengxian into the courtyard of Dongjin, arranged him in a room in the corner, and told him his daily work and eating place, and then left.
The room is not large, it is quite clean, the back window is open, it is a bamboo forest, but it is the inner courtyard of the main house that leads to the back three.
As soon as he returned today and had nothing to do, Hengxian threw the "dog egg" aside, closed the door, meditated cross-legged, and ran the "Ziwei Eight Desolation Sword Divine Dao".
His cultivation progress should be faster than that of ordinary monks, the sixfold Qi Sea that he broke through a month ago is now completely stable, and it must not take long to devour the inner pill and herbs to break through to the sevenfold Qi Sea!
Week after week......
Hengxian opened his eyes, it was already dark outside, and the inside and outside of the dart game in the night were clearly distinguished, and it was noisy outside, but it was very quiet inside.
"Dog Dan" hung upside down by the window in a daze, and when he woke up, he screamed and threw over a piece of braised pig's trotters, and he didn't know where he stole it.
Hengxian took it, signaled not to eat it, threw it back, opened the door and walked out.
Outside, there were a few oil lamps lit in the courtyard, and on the left were three rough men playing chess, and on the right were four or five men and women holding the soles of their shoes.
A group of half-sized low-class maids by the well opposite were smiling and doing laundry.
A farmhouse scene, very down-to-earth.
When everyone saw him, they were a little timid and didn't dare to speak, but a guy who came back from walking a dart with Hengxian smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, everyone, this is Mr. Murong, our new clerk!"
Only then did everyone relax a little and greet them in unison: "Mr. Murong!"
Hengxian nodded: "Hello, please take care of me when you first arrive!"
After speaking, I felt a little emotional, this world is respected by cultivation, and the scholars are very lowly, just like the next people!
The guy who walked the dart smiled: "Mr. Murong must have fallen asleep and didn't eat, right? β
"I'm about to eat!" Hengxian walked to the dining hall in order not to look special.
The canteen is not far away, just in the courtyard of the first three entrances.
Hengxian ate a little at random, and hurried back slowly, looking at the dart master and his subordinates passing by, he suddenly felt that he was hidden in the city, which was quite good.
At this time, I arrived at the junction of the inner house and the east courtyard, and the place to the inner house was a barrier.
Hengxian glanced at it casually, and couldn't help but be stunned, only to see a strange pattern on it, this kind of pattern he had seen when he was in Tianyuan Sect, it belonged to a higher kind of spirit gathering array pattern.
This little dart game, there is such a thing?
He glanced at the inner house and immediately opened the "Xuanhuang Heavenly Hexagram": "Help me calculate a hexagram, what is the pattern on this stone tablet?"
Hexagram answer: [The wood fire spirit array, which is three hundred years old, should be the qi of the fire spirit and the birth and cultivation of the fire real grass!]
Hengxian was a little surprised: "This kind of spirit grass needs three hundred years to conceive and cultivate, so precious?"
Hexagram answer: [This herb only needs three hundred years to conceive, there is a plant in the depths of this house, which is about to mature, and the monks use it to alchemy, which can improve the realm.
With the host's cultivation and alchemy, you can directly break through to the eightfold Qi Sea Realm. γ
This can also be done?
Hengxian couldn't help but be excited.
At this moment, a big girl came out of the inner house, wearing heavy makeup, a beautiful mole at the corner of her mouth, looking very enchanting, seeing him in a daze, she couldn't help but scold: "What kind of person are you, a thief and a thief!"
Hengxian pointed at himself in surprise: "Do you think I'm a thief?"
It's about appearance, it's not okay.
The maid looked at him carefully, pouted, and said, "Heh, it's pretty good-looking, but what's the use, aren't you just a clerical person like this?"
"That makes sense. Hengxian chuckled and gestured away.
At this moment, another person came behind him, a lupine scarf, so unromantic.
When the heavy makeup maid saw it, she immediately greeted her with a smile on her face: "Young Master Xu!"
Xu Gongzi chuckled: "It turned out to be Qingmei, what's wrong?"
The maid pointed at Hengxian: "This subordinate is sneakily standing on the barrier and going inside!"
Xu Gongzi glanced at Hengxian, his face turned cold, and said: "It turned out to be you, you still said that you had read the book of sages, and you didn't know the etiquette at all? β
This reaction was a bit excessive, mainly because the bunch of famous classics that Hengxian said that day irritated him a little, and even he was not qualified to read it.
Hengxian pinched his chin and narrowed his eyes: "You two have a personal relationship!"
