Volume 2 Soaring 165 A beggar born into a great wealth
Wu Fan was bored alone, remembered about alchemy, and went to the Chinese medicine shop with a relatively complete variety of inquired again, and bought a large bag of medicinal materials.
In a cave in the first hall of the underworld, since the spirit stone has been discovered, the refining of the three-grade gathering spirit pill is no longer urgent, but it is still necessary to improve the alchemy realm through alchemy. Practice is the only criterion for testing the truth, including talismans, inscriptions, formations, and the cultivation of Qimen Dunjia, all of which can only be continuously improved through practice.
No matter how powerful the Fengyue Treasure Jian is, it is inherent in it, Wu Fan himself cannot have it automatically, only by cultivating hard can he truly master the Dao technique.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Wu Fan entered the Lingshi cave in the first hall of the underworld. The time of the first temple of the underworld was late at night and early in the morning, and the cave was pitch black, but under the night vision of the Fengyue Baojian, it was as bright as day.
Taking out the Tianxin Alchemy Furnace from the Space Ring, according to the refining method of the Yipin Gathering Spirit Pill, Wu Fan put a part of the medicinal materials into the Dan Furnace and urged the True Qi to start refining. After more than an hour of refining, he really refined eight three-grade Gathering Spirit Pills.
When used as a cultivation resource, the effect of the three-grade Gathering Spirit Pill is significant, but the number is too small, and now that there are spirit stones, there is no need to use them in cultivation. Giving a few to Guo Youhua, the father of Guo Xiaoice, can control his condition, and in addition, giving one to grandpa is also very beneficial to his body. Wu Fan put the eight three-grade Gathering Spirit Pills into the wooden box and put them into the space ring.
Sitting on the stone bed, Wu Fan refined the spirit stone of the stone wall for a while, and the progress was very fast, although he was at the peak of learning the Dao and did not break through, he obviously felt that the refined true qi was rolling in, and the true balloon body was rotating at high speed in the sea of dantian qi, which increased significantly by a few points.
After the refining speed was significantly reduced, Wu Fan saw the top of the cave with a glimmer of sky, projecting sunlight in, and Wu Fan planned to go to Feng Zuming's house. Squeezed out from the stone gate to the vertical cave, the height of more than two zhang is more than two zhang high, it is difficult to defeat Wu Fan, two feet support both sides, rub a few times, and arrive at the narrow passage, along the original way when you first came in, you are already on the mountainside.
On the way, Wu Fan met many old people who went out to work, and they all nodded and said hello. After a short time, he arrived at Feng Zuming's house in the village.
"We've all had breakfast, if you want to eat a little bit of Brother Wu, I can cook a pot of noodles for you. Jiang Hao said.
"No, I'll just eat some biscuits and drink some milk. If it's okay, go out with me, is there a city near here?" Wu Fan was reluctant to trouble Feng Jiang and the others, because in the future, he would have to go out in the first hall to find out the whereabouts of his father and mother, and Wu Fan proposed to go out.
"Great, there is a town nearby, Brother Wu, your identity token is at the level of the county king, you can take us to the town for a walk. Feng Zuming said.
When Feng Jiang and the others heard that they could follow Wu Fan out of the house, they were all happy and couldn't ask for it. The last time he went to the capital to save Wu Fan, Feng Zuming spent a lot of money to buy off the official errand.
The three of them walked to the town. Feng Zuming said that he had been to the town several times and was familiar with the road, but told him that the intersection would be checked by officials. Sure enough, at the intersection of entering the town, the three were stopped by officials.
"Identity token!" said an official with an expressionless face.
"My identity token can be used everywhere, you can take a look. Wu Fan hurriedly took out the identity token and held it high in his hand.
"Huh-" When the leading official saw it, he took it suspiciously, and put it in his hand, like a jade identity token, radiating a faint green light.
"My lord, what is your name? The official leader's expression changed drastically, and he said respectfully.
"My name is Wu Fan. Wu Fan said indifferently.
"Lord Wu, please, the little one has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai. The official immediately nodded and sent Wu Fan and the three of them forward.
"They're all minions who tend to be inflammatory. Walking a little farther away, Jiang Hao scolded.
"The world is like this, and being angry doesn't change anything. Feng Zuming said.
Most of the houses in the town are made of brick and stone tiles, and the streets are paved with stone slabs, which are much better than Feng Zuming's village, but they are not beautiful. There are many shops on both sides of the street, such as blacksmiths, grain and oil shops, cloth shops, grocery stores, and snack shops, just like some small towns in Yangshi, but the shops have a single type of goods and are very expensive.
The town is much more lively than other places, but most of the pedestrians are walking around and not really buying things. The guy at the snack shop, bored, sat at the door, bowed his head and digging his feet.
"Uncle, it's okay. "A white-haired old man with a cane and ragged clothes took a child and begged from Wu Fan. When Wu Fan came to this space and saw a child for the first time, he couldn't help but be curious and stopped to look.
The child was wearing many patched clothes, with many stains on his face, and was very thin, but his eyes were attentive, and he looked at Wu Fan and the three of them shyly.
"Little friend, how old are you?" Wu Fan looked sad and lowered his body and asked.
"I'm eight years old. The boy said.
"I only have one of this here, for you to eat. Wu Fan took out a piece of chocolate and handed it to the child.
When the boy saw this, he reached out and took it, tore open the package, and immediately put it in his mouth.
"Chocolate, grandpa, chocolate, I haven't eaten it in two years. While eating, the child grabbed the corner of the old man's clothes and said excitedly.
"Uncle is a kind man. The old man said.
Wu Fan could understand what the old man and the child were saying, and their accent was similar to that of the people in Gwangju.
"Old man, why did you fall to the point of begging?" Wu Fan couldn't help but ask since he had special abilities and was full of compassion.
"Hey, it's a long story, my unscrupulous sons and daughters, only care about competing for family property, and refuse to send a little money, my grandson and I are living so hard!"
"You haven't eaten, let's go to this little shop for some food together. Wu Fan pointed to the snack shop next to him. Feng Zuming and Jiang Hao were all good, but the old man was very hesitant, Wu Fan persuaded him again and again, and then went in together.
When the shopkeeper saw a customer, he hurriedly greeted him. Wu Fan, Feng Zuming, and Jiang Hao were not hungry, so Wu Fan ordered a meal for two people, a plate of fried pork head meat, a plate of potato boiled lard residue, and two large bowls of rice.
The child was extremely hungry, and after a while, the rice bowl had bottomed out, and Wu Fan called for another plate of nests.
"Big brother, why don't you eat it? It's so delicious, if I can eat it every day, I'll be so happy. The child bit his head and looked at Wu Fan Sandao.
"If you still want chocolate, I'll bring you a big bag next time. Wu Fan said.
After hearing this, the child nodded again and again, with a look of anticipation, and said, "Big brother, you have to talk about it." ”
After eating, the old man said that the grandfather and grandson used to live in the suburbs of Gwangju, and the family was wealthy, and two years ago he went out with a large family to play, and he was in a car accident on the road and came here. The three sons and two daughters of the family only cared about fighting for the family property, and after burning a little paper money at the beginning, they never received any money or goods during the holidays. Although the village has been allocated a small piece of farmland, it cannot support the grandparents and grandchildren at all.
"Old man, this brother of ours is called Wu Fan, he can help you, but you also have to give him benefits. Feng Zuming said.
"Exactly, there are still exchanges, and there are exchanges to last, so that they can last for a long time. Jiang Hao agreed.
Wu Fan can freely enter and exit the Yin and Yang worlds, he does things for others, but he can't do it in vain, help him get some benefits, Feng Jiang and the others have already thought of it. The two of them said goodbye, looked at each other and smiled,
"Oh, this Brother Wu has this ability?" the old man asked with hope burning in his heart and looking excited.
"Wu Fan has the ability to send a message to his friends in the yang world and ask his friends to burn paper money for you, but you also have to guide Wu Fan and let him get some money in the yang world. Feng Zuming pointed.
When the old man heard this, he was silent, and for a while, he seemed to have finally made up his mind.
"If it's not for the grandson, it's just the old man, and it doesn't matter if the old man starves to death. There are many people here, so it is better to go to the place where the old man lives, and the old man slowly talks and listens to the Wu brothers. The old man said.
Wu Fan and the others all said yes, and then got up and accompanied the old man and his grandson out of the town to the nearby village where they lived.
At the old man's house, Wu Fan recorded the old man's name and surname with a pen and paper, and drew a map of his original village on the outskirts of Gwangju, indicating the location of one of his family's old houses, which was detailed and clear.
"Hey, Elder Shen, your hometown is very close to where my friend lives. Wu Fan said.
The old man surnamed Shen sighed, and told Wu Fan the most important secret of his family.
It turned out that the huge wealth of Shen's family was not the bank deposits and the shops in Gwangju City, but the many gold and silver treasures hidden by the ancestors in the basement of the old house, especially some priceless antiques. Shen Laoyuan was the head of the family, this was a secret that his father told before he died, and he did not reveal it to anyone in the family before he arrived.
Those unfilial children, even if they tell them, they will inevitably be defeated, and now they are desperate, so let Wu Fan's friends get it and get some money to live. There is a certain risk, but the old man Shen is very skilled, and he can see that Wu Fan is a trustworthy person.
"I'll come again in the afternoon, bring you some rice, noodles, bacon and other food, and burn money for you, it will take a little time. Wu Fan said.
"Thank you, Brother Wu. Shen Lao said happily.
After chatting for a while, Wu Fan and Shen Lao said goodbye, returned to the town, and walked around. There was nothing new, and it was not interesting to go shopping again, so Wu Fan and the three of them walked along the same road to 3509 Village. Halfway through, Wu Fan asked Feng Jiang and the others to go back to the village on their own, and after thinking about it, they returned to Villa 8.
Wu Fan went out, went to the supermarket to buy a lot of rice noodles, preserved fish and bacon, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, ready-to-eat food and drinks, large bags and small bags, put them in the space ring, and returned to the No. 8 villa.
When he went to the door of Shen Lao's house again, Wu Fan knocked on the door, and Shen Lao saw that Wu Fan was going and returning so quickly, so he hurriedly welcomed him into the house.
"I have brought you something to eat, but be careful not to be known. Bags and leftovers should not be littered, and it is best to bury them secretly in the field. Wu Fan said, while taking out the things he bought from the supermarket from the space ring.
Seeing Wu Fan take out large bags of rice noodles and all kinds of food and drinks out of thin air, Shen Lao was shocked, and he knew that Wu Fan was a person with extraordinary abilities.
"Bao, this Uncle Wu is your great benefactor, you can kowtow to him. Shen Lao looked solemn and ordered his grandson.
"Grandpa, I want Brother Fan to be my father. Ah Bao was very clever, kneeling down and kowtowing, and said loudly.
"I can't help it, I can't help it, I'm only in my twenties. Wu Fan hurriedly helped Ah Bao up. Regardless of whether he can come up with his family's secret treasures in the future, he can help people a little at this time, but he can't help one more son out of thin air.
"My grandson's name is Shen Tianbao, and he has already knelt down to worship Brother Wu, so it's better to recognize him and let him be your own brother. "Shen Lao is decisive in his words and deeds, he is indeed an old man, and he was able to control a large family in the past, but he didn't cover it.
In order for his grandson to have a way to live in the future, Shen Lao not only gave away the secret huge wealth of the yang world, but also asked his grandson to recognize Wu Fan as his elder brother.
"Okay, Bao, you will be my brother in the future, and I will definitely take care of you. Wu Fan saw that he didn't need to have an extra son, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Not married yet, it is very stressful to be told that you already have a son.
When asked what kind of livelihood he did when he was slack, Shen Lao said that there were other livelihoods to do, and when he didn't go out to beg, he just played chess with people in the village to pass the time.
