Chapter 450: The Red Rope on the Jade Pendant
The current Yan Feiyang is very normal in anyone's opinion, there is no difference from before, and even his expression has not changed in the slightest.
In the eyes of Minister Fang and Mr. Zhou, Yan Feiyang simply walked a few steps in the ward.
It probably took a very close look to see that Yan Feiyang's expression had changed slightly, and it could only be said that he was more calm than before.
Yan Feiyang paced a few steps before standing still again, and looked up slightly at the sky outside the window.
The leaves of the sycamore trees move with the wind and make a swishing sound, which is particularly strange in such an atmosphere.
Minister Fang followed Yan Feiyang's line of sight, looked at the sycamore tree in wonder, and couldn't see any clues, so he had to withdraw his gaze again, trying to find a hint on Yan Feiyang's face.
However, Yan Feiyang quickly retracted his gaze, and looked at his expression as if he had found the answer.
Minister Fang had a lot of questions in his heart, but he couldn't find the right time to ask. He was also afraid of affecting Yan Feiyang, although he didn't know what the other party was doing, Minister Fang inexplicably had a sense of awe in his heart.
Just when Minister Fang was entangled, Yan Feiyang spoke, and he looked at Minister Fang and said.
"Is there incense here?"
The bowls and chopsticks are easy to say, and it is not strange that there will be in the ward. But incense is different, there are very few such things in ordinary people's homes, let alone in the hospital, who will bring this thing to the hospital if they are fine?
"Incense?"
Minister Fang was slightly stunned, as if he was digesting Yan Feiyang's question, and it took about a few seconds before he realized what Yan Feiyang was asking.
"Well, it's the incense kind. You can do anything, as long as you can light it. ”
Yan Feiyang explained again.
Minister Fang thought about it for a while, he was not very sure, but replied tentatively: "Look at the drawer of another cabinet, if there is no one in it, there will be no more." ”
Originally, Yan Feiyang didn't have any expectations, incense is not very common, and many families do not have the habit of lighting incense.
Yan Feiyang asked casually, but he didn't expect Minister Fang to deny it. This surprised him a little.
He was ready to buy it, but it was not easy to buy, and the time was relatively tight, and the time was too tight to be counted on Old Man Fang.
Whether he can stick to it or not, every minute and second is very precious to the old man, so Yan Feiyang doesn't want to waste his time here.
Fortunately, Minister Fang said that there may be one in the ward.
Yan Feiyang opened the cabinet door, looked inside, and saw a box of incense quietly in the drawer.
Minister Fang saw it from a distance and was also relieved.
He didn't know what Yan Feiyang wanted Xiang to do, did he want to do it at this time?
This thing was not brought by Minister Fang, and he didn't know that there would be this in the ward. But he had noticed the occasional scent of incense ash on the ground in recent mornings.
So Minister Fang speculated that someone in the ward probably lit incense.
This person is none other than Minister Fang's wife. Because she had the habit of lighting incense every day when she was at home. Now because I came here to take care of the old man, sometimes I didn't have time to light incense at home, so I simply brought the incense directly.
Minister Fang didn't know where the incense was, probably guessed it based on the tacit understanding between the husband and wife for so many years. I didn't expect him to guess correctly.
Minister Fang's wife brought the incense to the hospital to order it, and after the incense was finished in the morning, there would be a faint smell of incense ash in the ward, which could make people's emotions calmer.
And the main reason is that Minister Fang's wife has always had the habit of lighting incense in the morning, which is to pray for the whole family to be healthy and smooth every day.
Now that the old man is hospitalized because of a strange illness, Minister Fang's wife will never forget to light incense no matter how busy she is.
That's why there is such a thing as incense in the ward.
Yan Feiyang took out a stick of incense from the box at random, glanced at the length and nodded slightly.
It doesn't need to be long, but it has to be a whole stick of incense, not broken. It doesn't matter if it's shorter, because the rate of combustion is controllable.
The speed at which the incense burns and turns into ash is related to the material, and of course, the uncertainties of the external environment can be excluded for the time being.
But when it comes to Yan Feiyang, it's not a problem.
As long as it is not artificial, Yan Feiyang can make the incense burn slower. But it's not infinitely slow, it's just the normal burnout time after ignoring various factors on the basis of the original.
It sounds simple, but it's not that easy to do.
The biggest premise is to have abundant internal strength to support it, which is not a difficult thing for Yan Feiyang, and his current realm is more than enough to do this.
However, incense alone was obviously not enough, and he reached out and picked up the wooden chopsticks on the side of the bowl. Yan Feiyang put aside the wooden chopsticks and incense, and then focused his gaze on the old man.
If you look closely, you can find that Yan Feiyang is not looking at the old man's face this time, but at the old man's neck.
Minister Fang's gaze always followed Yan Feiyang, and at this moment he also looked at the old man's neck a little puzzled, there was nothing but a red rope there.
There is a jade pendant tied to the red rope, which the old man has been wearing since he was young, and it has been decades to say the least, and it is the old man's personal belongings.
Could it be that Yan Feiyang was looking at the old man's jade pendant?
Minister Fang looked at Yan Feiyang with a puzzled look, not knowing what the other party meant.
"Minister Fang, has this jade pendant been worn by the old man all the time?"
Yan Feiyang asked without warning. When he said this, Yan Feiyang's eyes did not leave the old man.
Minister Fang paused for a moment, then nodded: "Well, this jade pendant has been worn by the old man for decades, and he went to the southwest to buy it when he was young. ”
Minister Fang didn't say much, after all, it was decades ago, and Minister Fang was still young at that time, and he didn't know much, he only knew that the old man was going out to make money in order to improve the environment at home.
Later, he made a small fortune in the southwest, and used the money as a foundation to return to the capital to start a business.
Minister Fang's solid family background was basically saved at that time. Later, Mr. Fang keenly discovered the policy changes and transformed his business in a timely manner.
The old man also knew that if he had been doing business, it would not be of much benefit to the future of the Fang family, and the most important thing was to let the Fang family go further.
Therefore, Mr. Fang also did a lot of things at the beginning, and invested a lot to let his son embark on a political career.
At that time, it was early, not as strict as it is now, and it was not as scrupulous as it is now, plus Minister Fang's own ability was also very strong, so he finally slowly gained a firm foothold.
It can be said that to get to today's position, Minister Fang has the most to thank the old man.
If it weren't for the old man's foresight, maybe the Fang family would only be able to do business in this life. It is true that a lot of wealth can be accumulated, but the social status will still be dwarf.
But looking at it now, the Fang family would definitely not have such an idea. Because Minister Fang's status is high enough, this government-to-government cooperation plan is very revealing.
So basically every time he saw the jade pendant on the old man's chest, Minister Fang couldn't help but think of a lot of the past.
Realizing that he was a little distracted, Minister Fang came back to his senses and looked at Yan Feiyang and asked, "What's wrong with this jade pendant?" ”
"If you can, can you lend me the red string?"
Yan Feiyang heard Minister Fang's words, and nodded slightly, as long as it was worn closely, it would be easy to do, he needed this thing.
Minister Fang and Yan Feiyang looked at each other, with puzzlement in their eyes, he didn't seem to hear it wrong, what Yan Feiyang wanted was not a jade pendant, but a red rope.
"Why?" Minister Fang asked almost subconsciously.
"Because I'm going to use this red string to connect the wooden chopsticks and the incense."
Although Minister Fang only said three words, Yan Feiyang still understood what he meant.
Yan Feiyang obviously understood Minister Fang's doubts very well. No matter who it was, the first reaction when they heard Yan Feiyang's request was probably the same.
It's actually a red rope, not a jade pendant.
But it's true, Yan Feiyang doesn't need a jade pendant, he only needs a red rope.
Originally, as long as it was an item close to the old man, like a rope, or a thread, it could be connected to the chopsticks and incense.
Of course, if there is a red rope like this, it is naturally the best.
Even if there is no red rope, it is not a big problem, with Yan Feiyang's internal force as the foundation, there is nothing that cannot be solved.
It's just that correspondingly, the effect that the red rope can achieve needs to be supplemented by Yan Feiyang's internal force. In this way, the internal force consumed will also increase accordingly.
In the current situation, Yan Feiyang will still try his best to preserve the internal force, because he doesn't know what the purpose of the main envoy behind the scenes is.
Although Yan Feiyang had a rough guess in his heart, Yan Feiyang didn't know who the other party was and what his strength was.
So what he can do now is not to consume his internal strength casually, so that when he finds the soul of the old man, even if he will face off with the other party, he will have the confidence not to fall behind.
Yan Feiyang could probably guess that this spell caster should be about the same as his realm, or even slightly inferior to him.
Of course, it is also possible that the other party deliberately hid his strength and kept a hand when casting the spell.
The purpose is very simple, probably to make the person who finds a soul lose his vigilance, and finally he can achieve the desired goal without much effort.
At least for now, it seems that both scenarios are possible.
Yan Feiyang had thought of all the possibilities and was ready. Things are getting more and more interesting, and all he has to do is push the boat with the flow.
Minister Fang almost understood what Yan Feiyang meant, nodded and said, "Okay, do you need me to untie it down for you?" ”
"No, I'll do it myself."
Yan Feiyang rejected Minister Fang's kindness.
Old Man Fang's situation is quite stable now, but Yan Feiyang is still very cautious, and he must try his best to eliminate all possible situations.
So Yan Feiyang tried his best to do everything himself. (To be continued.) )
