Chapter 1180: Digging the Foot of the Wall
Liu Manfu looked at Fang Shi hesitantly, before he figured out what Fang Shi wanted to ask, Liu Manfu didn't know how to answer, this business tycoon who stomped his feet in the business world of Rongcheng and had to tremble in Rongcheng was now like a child at a loss in front of Fang Shi, even inferior to a child, at least the little girl could play carefree and worryless in front of Fang Shi, but Liu Manfu couldn't let go of his heart.
After this delay, Liu Manfu found that he couldn't open his mouth anymore, and the apprehension in his heart was like a crazy weed, quickly occupying his mind and completely devouring his reason.
Fang Shi coughed a little funny, and sent the fluctuations of the requiem out with the sound, Liu Manfu's body shook, and a spirit came to his senses, he glanced at Fang Shi suspiciously, and then his heart was full of awe.
As a martial artist, although he can barely get to the second-rate, but until the relationship between the spirit and spirit, just now Fang Shi clearly used means to shake his spirit, and the means he used was to cough lightly, Liu Manfu guessed, is this the master said that the realm of the great grandmaster, every move of the hand and the foot of yin and yang, flying flowers and picking leaves can hurt people.
"That Uncle Fang, do you mean the path of your disciples?"
"Could it be that I'm asking something else?"
Liu Manfu laughed dryly, wiped the sweat on his forehead and said: "Uncle, the path of the disciple has long been decided, it is the path of the martial artist, disciple"
"The path of a warrior? Are you sure? Are you not following the path of a merchant? ”
"Amount"
"Fang Shi, there are guests, hey, this is a little girl?!"
The little girl, who was trying to make the money fan fall, raised her head curiously. I'm trying to search my mind for the memory of this beautiful aunt. That little frown is so cute.
Xia Yuxin didn't wait for Xiaoya to remember. She had already squatted in front of Xiaoya with a smile, and said with temptation: "Xiaoya, don't you remember Auntie?" ”
The little girl shook her head blankly, Fang Shi couldn't cry or laugh, this generation is chaotic
Liu Manfu is Xiaoya's grandfather, but Liu Manfu is also Xia Yan's disciple, the same generation as Xia Yuxin, according to this generation. Xiaoya should be called Xia Yuxin's uncle, but Xiaoya obviously hasn't started to apprentice now, if she starts apprenticeship in two years, it is likely to worship under Xia Yuxin's door, even if it is not, it is also under Xia Yuxin's peers, counting, it is a generation behind, so it is not wrong to call her aunt.
It's just, why does this generation sound so weird? In fact. The reason for this feeling is because of Fang Shi, if Xia Yuxin marries Fang Shi. Well, Xia Yuxin has become Liu Manfu's elder, and now it is completely messed up.
Fang Shi shook his head vigorously, it seems that it is futile to figure out this generation, if you really want to blame it, you can only blame Yun and Daoren, who asked her to mention Fang Shi's generation to the same generation as herself.
After Xia Yuxin and Xiaoya's warm interaction, Xiaoya wiped her saliva and fled with a wealth fan, Xia Yuxin and Liu Manfu sat at the table chatting, Fang Shi entered the kitchen, and after a while, the food was brought out, smelling the fragrance Chen Xiaohui appeared, so there was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping in the yard, and the poor little girl's face was ravaged by Chen Xiaohui with hatred.
In the end, the very weird little girl hid in Fang Shi's arms and held a pair of chopsticks and ate with rice grains on her face, Xia Yuxin and Chen Xiaohui were very strange, Fang Shi liked the girl, the strange thing is that the girl also liked Fang Shi, could there be anything on Fang Shi that attracted the little girl?
Liu Manfu knows Chen Xiaohui and Xia Yuxin, and is an old friend of Xia Yuxin, and has met Chen Xiaohui a few times, because Chen Xiaohui is now in charge of the outer finance of Qingcheng Mountain, so he went to Rongcheng to deal with Liu Manfu a few times.
After eating, the little girl who played all morning dozed off in Fang Shi's arms, and finally simply found a comfortable position to sleep, Liu Manfu was very embarrassed, and wanted to hug the little girl over, Fang Shi refused, Fang Shi wrapped the little girl with his own breath, so that she would not be woken up by their conversation, nor disturbed by the hot temperature, and even used the breath to form a faint fluctuation of requiem, so that the little girl entered a most comfortable dreamland.
Chen Xiaohui was driven to clear the dishes and chopsticks by Xia Yuxin, and the three of them continued the conversation that had been interrupted just now.
After this period of buffering during the meal, Liu Manfu also thought about it in his heart for a long time, and he finally figured out what Fang Shi wanted to ask and why he asked it.
After figuring out Fang Shi's purpose, Liu Manfu was still very moved in his heart, Fang Shi, as the next head of the sect, could care so much about him, an outer disciple, he was really happy, of course, he also knew that he was stained with Xia Yan's light, but it didn't matter at all, the important thing was that the reason why Fang Shi asked this was obviously to cultivate himself.
But what makes Liu Manfu curious is that he is not young anymore, but because of his neglect of practice, he can barely be regarded as a second-rate martial artist now, and it is not easy to go further along the path of a martial artist, and, judging from Fang Shi's hint just now, the path of a martial artist is the path of a monk, and he still has to enter the Tao in the end, can he do it?
"Lao Liu, what do you think?"
Liu Manfu was really a little weak when he heard this title, but since Fang Shi was calling it like this, he had no choice but to listen to it.
"Uncle Shi, of course I want to follow the path of a warrior, and it is my task and responsibility to be a businessman, not that I want to be a businessman."
"Don't you like business yourself?"
Liu Manfu shook his head and said, "I like it, but first of all, I am a disciple of Qingcheng Mountain, if I didn't want to cultivate back then, how could I do everything possible to worship Qingcheng Mountain." ”
Fang Shi smiled secretly in his heart, Liu Manfu originally wanted to cultivate, but he turned out to be a martial artist, I'm afraid there are some stories in it, but this has nothing to do with Fang Shi, Fang Shi is just a little curious.
"I heard Uncle Xia say that you have been under his disciple for nearly thirty years, right?"
"Thirty-one years."
Liu Manfu had some embarrassment on his face, thinking of Xia Yan, who knew Ren Xia and righteous back then, he suddenly admired him and resolutely worshiped him under his door, his heart seemed to be stuffed with something, and he felt inexplicable.
"It's been thirty-one years, but you have been practicing martial arts for thirty-one years, but you are only staying at the stage of refining and refining qi, and your son has not entered Qingcheng Mountain, what do you think?"
Liu Manfu sighed: "Maybe it's because my qualifications are not good, I have also worked hard, but I found that the progress was very slow, and in the end even the master was disappointed, but after more than 30 years, I am still an outer disciple, ashamed!." ”
Fang Shi nodded, Liu Manfu was really ashamed, his old face was red, and he looked like he was congested.
Xia Yuxin looked a little unbearable, glanced at Fang Shi and said: "Maybe my dad can't teach, senior brother, you see that my dad has a few decent disciples, and Yu Yao and I are both led by the master, so it can be seen that the problem may not be with you." ”
Fang Shi smiled secretly in his heart, in fact, he also saw it this way, Xia Yan's disciples really didn't have any decent, Xia Yan's own nature was like a fire, love and hate, and he lacked patience, maybe he had self-knowledge, so he would hand over a pair of daughters to the senior sister for education.
Fang Shi's words just now were not actually accusing Liu Manfu, but telling a fact, and at the same time, there was also a hint of Liu Manfu's meaning, just when Xia Yuxin made his words clear, Fang Shi couldn't help but glance at Xia Yuxin with appreciation.
Xia Yuxin and Fang Shi have a heart, Fang Shi understood with a look, her words just now were actually just to comfort Liu Manfu, who knew that Fang Shi really thought so, Xia Yuxin couldn't laugh or cry.
Liu Manfu only thought that Xia Yuxin's words were comforting words at first, but Liu Manfu was not a fool, he also understood something from Fang Shi's expression, but he didn't dare to think deeply.
"As for my son, it's because Master thinks my son's physical qualifications are not good, so he just allows me to teach some methods to strengthen his body."
Fang Shi was speechless, why can't these guys in Qingcheng Mountain teach their disciples? What's even more strange is their consciousness, such as Liu Manfu's situation, if Liu Manfu's son is also cultivated, even if he does not succeed in the end, but loyalty is not lacking, after all, the outer gate of Qingcheng Mountain also needs to be taken care of by manpower, right?
The result is good, now Qingcheng Mountain's manpower is stretched, Fang Shi has to arrest people everywhere, and even otaku like He Junrong and Liu Hezhou want to squeeze out oil, which is all the fault of the previous generation who did not pay attention to cultivating talents.
It seems that the outer disciples of Qingcheng Mountain really need to sort it out, they can't let them herd sheep, let alone those irresponsible masters, the outer disciples must also be managed in a unified way like the inner door, Fang Shi secretly made a decision in his heart, but the person in charge of the management of the outer door is also a headache, Xia Yan is obviously unqualified.
Fang Shi's eyes slowly turned to Xia Yuxin, but then denied it, Xia Yuxin's value lies in academic research, her understanding of the game is getting better and better, and now she has become Fang Shi's right-hand man, and she must not let her talent be drowned in these daily affairs.
Chen Haiying is a suitable candidate, but Chen Haiying is too young, and her strength is not enough to convince the public, if she can step into the stage of refining Qi and returning to the gods, it is almost the same, but Chen Haiying's current spiritual power is just over twenty, and it is still far behind.
Chen Xiaohui and Chen Bixin are even more inappropriate, and Lin Xueyi will never be able to, as for the inner disciples of the Qingzi generation, they really lack human experience, and they don't even have to think about it if they want to be in charge of the most complicated outer doors.
After turning around, the talent problem is still trapped by talent in the end.
Fang Shi decided to follow his own ideas and ask Liu Manfu from Xia Yan's hands, this person has rich experience, although his strength is still a little lacking, but the foundation is very solid, as long as he has targeted training, it is not difficult to raise him to the warlock stage, so it is barely possible to let him temporarily manage the affairs of the outer door.
"Lao Liu, can you let go of the matter over there in Rongcheng? I want you to come to the mountains and live for a while, about six months to a year. I think you also know that what we lack most in Qingcheng Mountain today is talent, to be honest, you are indeed a little older, but older age has the advantage of being older, do you understand what I mean? ”
Liu Manfu was stunned, he was stunned by this huge surprise, so much so that he forgot about the contradiction between Xia Yan and Fang Shi, and forgot about this, but he had to suffer a loss. (To be continued......)
