"Girl, you don't have to, if I can help the girl, that's the fate between you and me, how can I accept the girl's formation, besides, I don't know anything about the formation, I'm afraid I will disappoint the girl." Chen Fan excused himself, mainly because Chen Fan had no plans to learn the formation at present, and the Nine Palace Bagua Diagram was not a precious thing in Chen Fan's opinion, and the library of the True Martial Arts Temple should have a collection, which would not be rare.

"Lang Jun doesn't know, this Nine Palaces Bagua Diagram is also known as the Five Elements Array, Eight Arrays, different people set up the array, the location of the array is different, and the power of the formation is also different, this array has my comprehension, Lang Jun can take a closer look if he has time."

Chen Fan's heart suddenly moved, this Nine Palaces Bagua Diagram is a common thing in the Daomen, and it may have a deep meaning to come here to send this array diagram, so he immediately took it and said, "Then it is disrespectful." ”

"It's not early today, so I won't keep Langjun." Wu Ying saw that Chen Fan had accepted the formation diagram, so she didn't keep it anymore and said goodbye.

"Okay, farewell." Chen Fan and Wu Ying went out of the backyard, Hou Feng had already taken something and waited, and when he saw Chen Fan coming out, the two of them immediately left the store and boarded the car back to the house.

At this time, night had fallen, and the house was lit up and the meal was about to be opened.

Hou Feng went to hand over the braised pork to the kitchen, Chen Fan came to the main hall, his father was already seated, his mother was eating the food, and the others had not yet arrived, so he wanted to know that Chen Fan was not there, and he had not been notified to start the meal. After Chen Fan greeted his parents, he sat down in his usual position.

"Fa Sheng, you will go to Gusu tomorrow and enter school the day after tomorrow, but what do you need to prepare for your father?"

"Thank you, Father, Mother has helped me get ready. The autumn in our Jiangnan is always short, and the weather will get cold in a blink of an eye. ”

"Well, don't worry about this, you remember to take care of yourself outside, don't worry about your family. I heard that you just went to Qingpu Town? ”

"Yes, the braised pork head meat there is good, and it is just the right time to add a dish to the house in the evening."

"Why did it take so long to buy meat?"

The shopkeeper's daughter is a Taoist priest of Sanqingguan, who has studied Go on weekdays, and because she admires her son's "Nineteen Roads", she talked with her son for a game and delayed for some time. However, her chess skills are really good, and in the end, her son just won by luck. ”

"Oh, it's not easy to go down to this level with you, but where is the Sanqingguan? As a father, I didn't say that I had heard of such a view nearby. ”

"Where is the exact location, I didn't ask. However, the origin of this Sanqing Temple is not simple, it is the same door as the Baiyun Temple, which is known as the authentic Taoist Temple, its lower courtyard Kun Taoist Temple is in Qingpu Town, and the Gandao Temple lives next to each other, only female disciples are recruited in the view, and it is relatively low-key on weekdays, so the reputation is not obvious, but its inheritance is comparable with the Baiyun Temple, and even surpassed. Chen Fan briefly said what he knew, so that his father had a number in his heart, and he should not underestimate this Sanqingguan.

As he was talking, Xiao Qing, Huang Shi, the eldest brother, and the second brother came in and sat down separately.

"Aqing, Fa Sheng went to Zhenqing Guan to practice this time, fortunately I am accompanied by you, I am also relieved a lot, you are more stable in your work, and your martial arts are also good, you usually take care of Fa Sheng." Father Chen specially cared for Xiao Qing.

"Uncle, don't worry, I will. The speed of Dharma cultivation is relatively fast, so my uncle doesn't have to worry. ”

Father Chen nodded and continued: "Fa Sheng, your original personality was too strong, although you are now a lot more stable, but remember, you must know how to endure everything, most of your classmates have been practicing in the Taoist Academy for three years, and their foundation is more solid than yours, especially in terms of martial arts, you have not practiced martial arts, and when you meet someone who is strong in martial arts, try not to fight with it, and be careful of suffering." ”

"Yes, Father." Chen Fan promised in his mouth, but he was a little disappreciative in his heart, he couldn't beat him, wasn't there still Hou Feng, Hou Feng couldn't beat him, and Ah Qing, to behave in the world, forbearance is necessary, but forbearance is limited, if people don't know how to resist, then they will only be bullied forever.

Seeing Chen Fan's attitude, Father Chen was still quite satisfied, thought about it and said: "Fa Sheng, I have a sword named Xiaohan, this is still left by your grandmother, and I will give it to you today, you can go with me to get it after dinner." ”

"Thank you, Father." Chen Fan said with the envious eyes cast by the eldest brother and the second brother.

"This sword is given to you, you have to learn martial arts hard, don't let down this sword."

"Father, I will definitely study martial arts hard, but I am afraid that I have no talent for learning martial arts, and I will live up to your expectations. Give this sword to the eldest brother, the eldest brother has now joined the army, give him the sword, I think he will use it, I just need an ordinary one. "The sword is still needed, but Chen Fan doesn't want any famous sword, he doesn't feel distressed if he loses it like that, and he takes a sword and bears his father's expectations, Chen Fan feels that the pressure is still quite great, because in Chen Fan's planning, the sword is to be learned, but as long as he knows, he is still focusing on cultivating the true yuan, and he has no intention of working the sword.

The eldest brother, who was still full of envy, heard Chen Fan say this, and estimated that he quickly weighed the gains and losses and said: "Fa Sheng, my father gave it to you, you don't have to excuse yourself, I already have a sword, and I am quite handy to use it, and I don't plan to change it again." It seems that there are not many people who are willing to bear Chen's father's expectations.

"Fa Sheng, don't be afraid of difficulties, you can ask Aqing more for advice in this regard, Aqing's martial arts are good, you still have time to work hard."

"Okay, I'll work hard, Father Xie." Chen Fan decided to put the sword down, as for practicing the sword with heart, it was necessary, of course, under the premise that time permitted.

"Fa Sheng, this time you go to Gusu, I thought about it, let Ah Chun follow, so as to take care of you and A Qing's daily life, now I just hired two cooks, and I don't even have someone to take care of at night, it's really inconvenient, what do you think?" Grandma also sat down at this time and asked beside her.

"Thank you to your mother, just follow your mother." Chen Fan promised, these people are always good, although Ah Chun is his mother's ear, but after all, it is not good if there is no capable helper in the family.

After everyone finished eating, they went back to their rooms, Chen Fan went to his father to get a sword, and asked his mother for an empty box, and let people carry it back to the residence, mainly to put things. This time I went to Gusu, Chen Fan had to bring the pickled preserved eggs, this time I came back, because I was busy, and it is estimated that it has not been pickled yet, so I simply took it to Gusu and then opened it, in addition, it was the piano that I played before, two small swords Huixin and Twins, plus Xiaohan who just gotten, and some clothes, shoes, accessories, etc. Chen Fan also sorted out a box of things, plus a box given by his mother, that is, two boxes, no less than moving.

As for the origin of the two small swords, Chen Fan felt that he was not in a hurry to check, and he would look at the situation after learning the "Dingguang Divine Technique" in the future, after all, these two small swords have a long history, if you really check their origin now, don't damage the soul and can't find out the result, then the gain outweighs the loss, so Chen Fan decided to wait and talk.

There is also whether Ah Qing has noticed that the word Dingguang on the Dingguang Sword has disappeared, that is no longer within Chen Fan's consideration, the main thing is that Chen Fan can't explain it to Xiao Qing, so he can only pretend not to know.

The next day, a five-masted sailing ship was moving fast on the river, and five women and one man stayed in the cabin on the second floor, it was Chen Fan and others, needless to say, the woman was Ah Chun. Chen Fan and Hou Feng were talking.

"Hou Feng, do you remember when you came, when we left Gusu City, we saw two men in black collecting money from a fisherman?" Chen Fan asked.

"I remember, at that time, Da Langjun also explained what a share of money is."

"Yes, after returning to Gusu this time, you can help me find out what kind of gang it is, and what gangs are there in Gusu? In addition, how is the fisherman who worked with the two men in black last time, his nickname is Lang Libai. ”

"The fisherman should be able to find out if he has a name, as for the two men in black, I didn't see it very clearly at the time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find out which gang they belong to." Hou Feng thought about it and said with a difficult face.

"Hmm." Chen Fan nodded, a little disappointed in Hou Feng's IQ, and then said: "There is no need to find those two men in black, I think the jurisdiction of the gang should be divided according to the region, the location of the two men in black we saw last time, which gang is in charge of that area, just check this, and ask about other gangs as well, which gang is responsible for collecting protection money from which areas, this Chang Jing who told the story last time should be clear, but don't look for him first, try first to see if you can find it through Xiao Er, who ran the hall in the tea shop." In addition, I also inquired about where else to operate news sales in addition to Nanfeng Pavilion, and it will be beneficial for us to inquire about the source of news channels in the future. Chen Fan doesn't think about what kind of intelligence network he has established at present, first, he doesn't have a special need to know information, and second, the funds are not allowed, so let's see if he can get some information he wants to know by buying it.

"Okay, Lang Jun, this shouldn't be difficult." Hou Feng, who got the specific way to inquire, agreed.

"Another thing, by the way, can you ask which farmers in the neighborhood raise ducks, and how many ducks they have? There is no urgency in this matter, you can inquire slowly. "Chen Fan is in modern times, as a native of Nanjing, he especially likes to eat roast duck in Nanjing. As far as Chen Fan knows, the practice of roast duck began in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, when Zhu Yuanzhang particularly liked to eat duck, the imperial chefs tried their best to develop a new method of duck, and finally created a roasted duck with fire, the roasted duck, eaten to the mouth crispy and tender, fat but not greasy, loved by people, known as "roast duck".

A folk song is circulated in Nanjing, "Ancient Academy, Glazed Tower, Xuanxi Satin, Jinling Duck", which is about the characteristics of Nanjing, which contains people's love for eating duck.

Although Chen Fan has never made this dish, he still knows the general method, and he can propose a method in the future for the chefs to study, which can not only be used as a way to make money, but also to satisfy his appetite. Whether it is planning to make roast duck or buy duck eggs, Chen Fan feels that it is necessary to find out the breeding situation of ducks, so that there is a plan in advance for pricing and supply of goods, and if necessary, you can participate in duck breeding.

"Okay, Lang Jun." Hou Feng nodded in agreement.

After explaining what Hou Feng had to do, the boat finally sailed to Gusu, and the eldest brother led everyone to Gusu's home, eating, tidying up, and practicing, and there was nothing to say all night.
