Squeak!

In the city of Upper Los Angeles, the wide road that can be driven by sixteen horse-drawn carriages together, the wheels run over the sunset on the bluestone, and the clattering past.

in the carriage.

"Little friend Fang Rui, since you are here, settle down as soon as possible. In terms of household registration, it is difficult for others, but it is not a problem for me......" Zhou Changfa patted his chest.

Even if Yu Song is the owner of a caravan, it is extremely difficult to get a household registration, but for Zhou Changfa, it is really a trivial matter as big as a sesame mung bean.

What is the tax period and the length of residence...... None of them are needed.

- A country ruled by people naturally has a back door left for people, and this is the same everywhere.

"Thank you, Brother Zhou." Fang Rui clenched his fists and wrote down this favor.

He clearly knows that even if a retired veteran leader like Zhou Changfa has a status here, he has no power in his hands, and he has to owe favors to find someone to do things.

"It's a trivial matter, how can I say thank you?"

Zhou Changfa waved his hand: "However, the courtyard in the city is larger and has a better location, and it is really difficult to find it in a hurry." Luckily, I have another yard where I lived when I first came to Shangluo, but then moved away and is now empty. ”

"As I said before, I was going to take Xiaoyou there."

In fact, the housing resources in Upper Los Angeles are far more strained than he said.

For example, Yu Song, even if he gets the household registration and has the access qualifications to buy a house, he can't buy it, and the one with a slightly better location will either be sky-high or not sold, and he can only choose the 'old and small' on the edge of Los Angeles.

"Thank you, Brother Zhou, the money ......"

"Haha, Fang Rui Xiaoyou has seen the outside, what kind of money are you talking about?"

Zhou Changfa shook his head: "Shangluoju, it's not easy, Xiaoyou should save it by yourself!" ”

"This ...... That's fine. Then thank you Brother Zhou! ”

Fang Rui clenched his fists again, but he didn't insist anymore.

With his superficial identity, in a hurry, he really wanted to come up with a large amount of 'astronomical money', but it did not conform to the character design, and it aroused suspicion.

Now that I owe favors, I don't care if I owe more. Fang Rui thought secretly.

"That residence is not too big, but it is also quiet and elegant, everything is good, but there is a little problem."

Zhou Changfa seemed to remember something, and his beard trembled: "The old man who lives next to him is a little difficult." ”

"Oh?!"

Fang Rui was surprised.

A third-grade martial artist like Zhou Changfa is also a retired official of the Dayu Imperial Court, and he is definitely a big man in Shangluo City, and there will be some who find it difficult.

As if seeing Fang Rui's doubts, Zhou Changfa explained: "That old man, named Yuan Haogu, retired from the center of the imperial court, and entered Zixiao Pavilion at the peak of his career, and his name and birth date were entered into the 'Taichu Gold List', and the 'Tianxin Seal' was hung on his waist......"

"The Primal Gold List? Tianxin Seal? ”

"Oh, the 'Taichu Gold List' is one of the Holy Emperor's relics, and the 'Tianxin Seal' is a talisman and luck treasure that can only be given by the important ministers who have entered the Zixiao Pavilion, and those who are idle and third-grade martial artists cannot be injured."

'Another innate treasure! Fang Rui's eyes narrowed.

"There is the 'Heavenly Heart Seal' body protection, plus ......"

Zhou Changfa continued: "That old thing in Yuan Haogu, no children and no daughters, upright, and extremely upright, it's difficult to do it!" ”

"In the Shenjing court, there was nothing to do with him, so he got him to Shangluo for the elderly. That's it, the old man is still restless, and he goes out to walk around the city every day, taking care of injustices. All parties have no choice, and now, the gentlemen in the city have taken a detour when they see the old man......"

'Understood, this Yuan Haogu is a character similar to Hai Rui. ’

Fang Rui secretly pondered, and asked with a smile: "Brother Zhou, I don't think you look like ...... How can you be afraid of this person? ”

"Xiaoyou is right. I used to be the chief of the Divine Catcher, how could I be a traitor? It's the old man, who is in charge of it! ”

Zhou Changfa snorted: "Little friend, you come to judge the theory: at night, I will close the door, my own Gaole, who is to provoke whom?" But that hateful old man smashed the door of my house with a cane......"

Hearing this, a picture instantly appeared in Fang Rui's mind: late at night, the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras was endless, Zhou Changfa was holding the beauty Hey Gaole, and an old man with a tense face suddenly slammed the door with a cane outside......

Burst!

Rao is based on his acting skills comparable to that of a professional-level actor, and he didn't hold back for a while, and laughed out loud.

"Fang Rui, you...... Ha ha! ”

Zhou Changfa said, and he also smiled: "That old man, not a martial artist, is old again, and he doesn't sleep well, I have a lot of adults, and I don't care about him anymore." ”

Outside of his words, there was a lot of disgust in his tone, but Fang Rui could still hear that Zhou Changfa admired that Yuan Haogu in his heart.

"Alas, I'm half buried in the earth, and that's all I have as a hobby, listening to music and having fun. If this does not make me happy, is it not embarrassing for me? Later, I moved out! ”

"It's Fang Rui, little friend, you have a quiet personality, you should be able to get along with the old man. It doesn't matter if you don't get along, the old man's temper is like a stone in a pit, smelly and hard...... I really can't get along, so I'll change your place in a few days. ”

……

In the afternoon of the same day, with the help of Zhou Changfa and Yu Song, the Fang family moved over smoothly.

In the evening, Fang Rui saw the 'old man' in Zhou Changfa's mouth.

This Yuan Haogu is an old man in his sixties and seventies, with a gray beard and a cloth robe, with a thin body, as if he can be blown down by a gust of wind, but his spirit is strong, and his eyes are bright, as if he can see through people's hearts.

"The old man is so ancient, and when he learned that his neighbors had moved here, he came to visit."

Yuan Haogu was born in the world's famous teaching, had his own literati style, attached great importance to etiquette, and the neighbor of the other family, a new neighbor, brought a pen, ink, paper and inkstone as a gift to congratulate.

At this moment, a fist-sized white jade square seal hanging from his waist suddenly flickered slightly.

"'Heavenly Heart Seal' alert, you are an ancient spiritual cultivator?!"

Just when Fang Rui's heart was condensed, Yuan Haogu waved his hand: "Today's imperial court no longer explicitly orders to crack down on ancient spirituality, the imperial court doesn't care, I won't care." ”

"It's just, a word of caution, the aura is poisonous!"

"Mr. Yuan, the aura is poisonous, what do you mean by that?" Fang Rui's eyes flashed and he asked.

"Don't say! Unspeakable! ”

Yuan Haogu waved his hand, shook his head, and turned to leave.

"Ahem!"

Fang Rui looked at the back of Yuan Haogu leaving, and inexplicably understood Zhou Changfa's mood.

'This bad old man, it's really annoying, can't you finish it if you have something to say?' If you have to talk about it halfway, you have a bad personality to hide and hang people's appetites! ’

Even if Ge Changgeng was at the beginning, when he encountered something that he couldn't say, he would compensate for some information on the side!

But.

After that, Fang Rui smiled again: "It's okay, after a long time, I don't believe it, ten or twenty years of getting along, and even sending this bad old man away, can't get a heart-to-heart word." ’

……

Time flies, February and March pass, from spring to summer.

It's afternoon.

In the lush courtyard, the weather gradually became hot and dry.

Click!

The knife flashed.

A watermelon that is as colored as ice crystal glass separates and is divided into petals of almost the same size, braving the cold air.

"This is the strange fruit 'ice glass melon', Ling'er, Nannan, try it!"

Fang Rui smiled and divided it among the two little girls present.

In Shangluo City, there are high-end shops that sell all kinds of strange fruits all year round, but the access qualifications are extremely high, and this 'ice glass melon' is still given by the circumference.

"Brother, don't we need the 'Ice Rain Pavilion' this year?" Fang Ling was like a lady, taking a small bite of the melon, looking at Fang Rui and asking.

"No, it'll be cool soon."

Fang Rui pinched his fingers and calculated the time: "It's here!" ”

As soon as the words fell.

Thundered!

Outside, there was a sudden explosion of thunder.

In the sky above Upper Los Angeles, the hemispherical light curtain flowed, turning into a cool color like sprite, and then the hazy, misty rain fell like smoke and fog, bringing bursts of refreshment.

"Look, I can pinch and calculate, call the wind and rain." Fang Rui stood with his hands in his hands and said lightly.

"Brother~Chief!" Fang Ling glanced at Fang Rui with disgust, elongated his tone, and his coquettish tone made people's scalps tingle.

"Yes, Brother Rui, don't tease us, hang your appetite, tell us directly!" Nan Nan also looked at it curiously, and her eyes were as clear as crystal glass.

If they were young, they probably really believed it, but where can they be easily coaxed now?

"Alas, you've grown up and aren't as cute as you used to be."

Fang Rui shook his head and explained with a smile: "In this Shangluo, there is a 'peace and happiness' who can't see the scorching heat, so a 'half-immortal' Bao Zhenren manipulated the 'Chaos Four Elephant Flags' to rain. ”

"This rain is called the June Lotus Rain!"

Such news was naturally learned from the mouth of Zhou Changfa.

Probably, the drought in the three southern states left a psychological shadow on Li Xuantong? Perhaps, it is not the drought that leaves a shadow, but the life that has been manipulated. ’

However, what Fang Rui didn't expect was that in Shangluo City, Li Xuantong still had such a great influence, and it was really 'to get the wind and the rain'.

'Perhaps, Li Xuantong, the Jiaolong who surrendered to sincerity, has something worthy of that Bao Zhenren's attention, right? Fang Rui thought secretly.

In fact, what he cares more about is what is behind this.

The innate treasure 'Chaos Four Elephant Flags' hangs in the air in Los Angeles, not for defense, but for changing the celestial phenomena, and is more focused on functionality and entertainment.

This is like this: gunpowder turned into fireworks in the prosperous era, this kind of self-confidence of the Dayu court 'I am invincible in the world' is really heartbreaking!

……

In such a dripping summer rainy season, the day is extraordinarily long.

Fang Ling and Nannan, the two little girls, went to play chess with the big and small girls.

In the front yard, Fang Rui was lying on a rattan chair, flipping through the new law materials and conjectures copied from Zhen Daoji.

Nowadays, there is only one road above the martial arts, and it is for the 'planting of the road'...... The spiritual seed is planted in the body, the magic medicine is supplied, the Gangyuan is detonated, and the spiritual sea is opened, but it has also been branded since then, and life and death are ...... by people'

'Huh? Slightly different from Daochang Ge's record, who is right and who is wrong? From my current perspective, it should be Zhen Daoji's correctness. ’

After all, Ge Changgeng is a spirit master, and the secrets of some martial artists are not very clear, and the records are slightly distorted, but it is reasonable.

It is also possible that Zhen Daoji deliberately misled me. Let's just experiment slowly! ’

In fact, with his own knowledge accumulation, Fang Rui has tried to come up with several versions of martial arts on the basis of "Cultivation of the Body".

It's a pity: most of his luck is 'I ponder' and 'it should be like this', and I don't even look at the panel.

Yes, compared to others, it still needs all kinds of hard work, Fang Rui only needs to see if the panel is included or not, and I don't know how much effort is saved.

'I always want to try my luck like this, it's absolutely impossible, I still have to sit still, calm down, and study hard! ’

'I still have a long way to go to open up a new method on top of the martial arts. In addition, it is better to have some high-quality martial artists for me to study and control......

Fang Rui thought secretly, his eyes flickering.

"Uncle Fang!"

At this time, Qing Yan knocked on the door, and after obtaining Fang Rui's permission, he came in slowly, and stopped talking.

"What's the matter, what's the matter, tell me about it."

"Did I really say that?"

"Say! What's the matter, Uncle Fang will give you a cover. ”

"What, Uncle Fang, I just want to ask, isn't Sister Ling'er's birthday coming soon? What does she like best......"

"Huh?!"

Fang Rui raised his eyebrows, and his face became darker and darker when he heard this.

Let me teach you how to chase my sister?

Good guy, are you floating, or am I unable to lift the knife?

"Go, go!"

Fang Rui waved his hand: "I'm in a bad mood today, I don't want to talk for the time being, you can go." ”

The relationship between him and Qingyan is also extremely familiar, and he jokes in a casual tone, but he is not afraid that the other party will be sensitive and think too much.

"Hey!"

Qing Yan wanted to say something more, but he was directly swept away by Fang Rui's sleeves and blasted out.

"This stinky boy!"

Fang Rui flipped through the information in his hand back and forth, and couldn't stand it anymore, so he simply put it down: "At a young age of eleven or twelve, I don't want to study, and I think about early love every day......"

Qingyan just went out, and after a while, Nan Nan probed his brain and came in again.

"Hello? Why don't you go and play with Ling'er and come to my side? ”

"Sister Ling'er is practicing, I don't have anyone to play with! Brother Rui, I just saw Qingyan coming, what is he looking for you? ”

"The little girl's family, what do you do when you ask so much? You don't understand. ”

"Who says I don't understand?!"

Nan Nan pouted: "I know that Qingyan likes Sister Ling'er." ”

"Huh?!"

Fang Rui looked up in surprise: "Nan, you ...... Really sensible. ”

Subsequently.

He paused in his tone, and said very kindly and intimately: "Nannan, do you also have a crush on someone, don't be afraid, boldly say to Brother Rui, I'll propose to you?" ”

"Brother Rui, what are you talking about?!"

Nan stomped her feet, and a blush like a cloud appeared on her delicate face like jade.

At this moment, a burst of footsteps suddenly sounded, and her face suddenly changed, and she dropped the sentence 'Brother Arui, I'll go first', like a frightened rabbit running away.

The person who came was naturally the third lady.

"Hey, Nan Nan was there just now, what is that girl hiding from me?"

She shook her head and looked at Fang Rui: "Brother Rui, I came here to discuss with you and see what kind of business we do?" It's always not good to sit idle. ”

"Let's open a medical center!"

Fang Rui thought for a moment.

With his medical skills, while making money, he can also come into contact with enough high-grade martial artists for comparative research and derivation of new methods above the first grade of martial arts.

"Brother Rui, I can naturally trust your medical skills, but I heard that there are also spirit masters, and the spells are very magical......

"Third sister, I admit that spells do have merits, but ordinary medical skills cannot be replaced."

Fang Rui is a middle-grade spirit master, don't you know it yet?

The spirit master's various healing spells have a considerable degree of weakened effect on those who have been blessed with atmospheric luck.

The most important thing is: in the environment of today's spiritual energy exhaustion, this thing is kryptonite!

Therefore, normal doctors still have a future in this world.

However, if you are proficient in medical skills, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in Upper Los Angeles, even if you are at the level of Xiaocheng, it is enough. But I am a perfect grandmaster-level medical skill, an existence that truly stands at the top of medical skills! ’

……

A month later, Caozhitang opened in Upper Los Angeles.

On the opening day, Zhou Changfa and Yu Song personally came to congratulate them with gifts, and the neighbor Yuan Haogu also sent a congratulatory gift.

Chirp - smack!

The fireworks exploded, like a bright bloom.

Fang Rui looked at the smiling young faces of Fang Xue's family, Sanniangzi, Fang Ling, and Nan Nan under the colored light, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but hook up.

'That's great! He said to himself.

……

I wish you all a happy Lantern Festival!!
