Chapter Seventy-Nine: Protection
"Fa Sheng, why are you in a hurry to return?" Xiao Qing, who had just been scolded by Chen Fan if he wanted me to help you block the wine, probably didn't know how to answer, but seeing that he was separated from everyone, he changed the topic and asked.
"What do you think you want to answer to this?" Chen Fan looked at Xiao Qing and asked rhetorically.
Seeing that Xiao Qing was deep in thought, Chen Fan didn't pay attention to Xiao Qing, but asked Huang Shi, "Huang Shi, have we been followed?" ”
"Not at the moment." Huang Shi replied in the affirmative.
"That's good. I don't know what Huang Shi thinks of the dealer just now? ”
"What, the law student tested me? What did you find? ”
"I suddenly felt the danger just now, I don't know what's going on, my heart is panicked, my hair is dizzy, I have a feeling of impending disaster, I feel that if I don't leave immediately, something bad will happen, this feeling is the first time it has appeared, Huang Shi knows what's going on?"
"This is a whim, just now the dealer is indeed not simple, is a martial arts master, she used internal force to pluck the dice, originally small, to her changed to big, just in order to win the law to give birth to your one or two silver, as a result of the law after you changed her, and changed the bet, so that she lost a lot, so that you may have a murderous intention. However, how did you know about her changes? ”
"Feeling. Originally, I thought I would win, but when she went to lift the cover, I suddenly felt that I would lose, and although I don't know why, I changed my mind. Chen Fan didn't say that he had practiced psychics, discovered the fluctuations in the air, and classified this as spiritual sense.
"Well, Dharma student, you can consider practicing a technique of numerology, and seek good fortune and avoid evil." Huang Shi said thoughtfully.
Chen Fan knows his own family affairs, for divination, but he is not interested in learning, that thing in his opinion, too mysterious, and can not live forever, rather than comprehending the numerology of the heavens, it is better to strengthen themselves, and when the strength is strong, when they can fight with the sky and the earth, they are qualified to learn, and now they have learned, but they only increase their troubles. However, he still said politely: "What Huang Shi said also makes sense, but now I haven't found a suitable Taoist book, I don't know if Huang Shi has any recommendations?" "It's one thing to learn it now, it's another thing to have a suitable inheritance in your hand, if Master Huang has a good numerology scripture, Chen Fan doesn't mind accepting it first.
"You now have a master's inheritance, these calligraphy should have, if you want to learn, you can ask your master, don't fight my idea, I will practice martial arts mortals, but there are no such things as cultivating truth." Huang Shi looked at Chen Fan, and he was clear about Chen Fan's careful thoughts.
"Oh, I'll just say it, Master Huang, you can listen to it." Chen Fan smiled and continued to walk forward, and the carriage rented by several people stopped at the gate of Baihuayuan, not far from them.
"By the way, Hou Feng, if I asked you to kill that dealer just now, would you kill him?"
"If she wants to hurt you, I will naturally kill you, but if she doesn't hurt you, there are so many people, I will hesitate, probably not."
Chen Fan was very satisfied with this answer, because this was a truth, if Hou Feng answered yes, Chen Fan didn't believe it, he was not arrogant enough to believe that Hou Feng would obey him; Chen Fan was very dissatisfied with this answer, because it showed that Hou Feng had not yet established complete trust in him, and he still had his own subjective thoughts and judgments, and he would not blindly follow them. Hou Feng is neither a smart person, nor a completely obedient person, this kind of person wants him to do things, only by using the right method.
"Now that dealer is likely to be unfavorable to me, I think about it now, her killing intent at that time should not be for the one or two silver, it is likely that she thinks that I have found out about her martial arts, and I am afraid that I will say it and want to kill it." Chen Fan said thoughtfully.
"Then what does Lang Jun want me to do?" Hou Feng looked at Chen Fan and asked.
"Don't be nervous, it's just my guess, it may not come true, but we'd better be careful. The first thing we have to do is to make sure that there is no one to inquire and follow us, the fellow students of the Taoist temple do not know our address, so we will hide it for the time being, and we will get into the carriage, this rented car is marked, it is easy to find out where it was rented, Hou Feng, what you have to do is to know if anyone asked the coachman for our address after the carriage was returned. I'll talk about what I'm going to do in two days. ”
"Okay, Lang Jun." Hou Feng agreed,
"And what are you going to do?" Chen Fan thought about it and felt that it was still necessary to clarify the details of the action.
"I'll talk to the driver, and if anyone asks us, let him not say it, let us know first." Hou Feng replied.
It's really speechless. Chen Fan looked at Hou Feng and said, "Don't tell the driver about this matter for the time being, you find someone to spy on it, and ask it in two days." ”
"Okay, Lang Jun." There are many Gusu Sanjiao and ninth-rate figures, and there are also people who take on this kind of work to monitor people, and Hou Feng knows what to do.
"Are you going to deal with this matter like this?" Huang Shi next to him interjected and asked.
Of course not, Chen Fan thought in his heart, and said, "I don't know what Master Huang taught me?" ”
"You can do this Langjun yourself, and I'll just ask this question."
"School is about to start, let's talk about this in two days, and Master Huang has to worry about our safety. To be able to cultivate such an outstanding disciple, the forces behind it must not be simple, and we don't have to offend, as long as she doesn't come to harm us, let's not violate the river water. ”
In Chen Fan's mind, if he wants to take revenge on this dealer, it is simple, write an anonymous letter to the government, and say that this woman is the snitch that the government is looking for, and let the government investigate, there will always be something suspicious to arouse suspicion. It's just that in this way, it will offend this woman and the forces behind her, and Chen Fan doesn't want to do it unless it is a last resort, especially since he still lacks the ability to protect himself.
As for wanting to do it without people knowing, ghosts are not aware, in Chen Fan's opinion, the possibility is very small, the geese have left traces, the wind has left a sound, there will always be clues to be found, especially in this world, there is still divination, Chen Fan naturally does not want to take risks, but if the woman still has murderous intentions towards herself, there is no way to retreat, and she must do her best to strike a thunderous blow, and then not only let the Gusu government investigate, but also mobilize all the forces that can be mobilized to strangle the enemy in the cradle.
The four of them got into the carriage, and Chen Fan asked, "By the way, how far is that sea restaurant from where we live, do you know Hou Feng?" ”
"It's not far, it's very close to where we live, and it's just over a mile away, and I passed by when Huang Shi and I were looking for a house before."
"Yes, just walk over there." Huang Shi answered.
"Okay, that Hou Feng, after you finish your business, go directly to the private room there, about fourteen people."
"Hou Feng and I won't be with you anymore, you classmates will talk more about each other." Hearing that Chen Fan counted the two of them into it, Huang Shi proposed.
"Okay, Master Huang, is there a way to tell if this food and wine have been poisoned?" Chen Fan was not reluctant, but jumped his mind to the issue of food safety protection.
"Yes, the use of utensils, such as silver needles can be used to measure the poison of minerals such as arsenic, but the poison of animals and plants, there is nothing that can be done, there is also a treasure, called the poison avoidance beads, once you encounter poison, it will glow, red, yellow and green, corresponding to the poison of minerals, animals, and plants, Wanbaotang has been sold before, but unfortunately Wanbaotang was annihilated in the long river of history by mysterious forces three hundred years ago, and there is no way to buy poison avoidance beads; The other is arithmetic, it is said that Tianxin arithmetic can perceive danger, if practiced, when you get the poison and are ready to take it, you will feel it in your heart, and you will be lucky and avoid evil; There is also the art of tongue discrimination, this is a Dao Gate spell, if you practice, eat poisonous substances, the tongue will be as if you have been struck, so as to find the abnormality, the true martial arts concept has a long heritage, maybe there is, you can look for the law student. ”
"Thank you Master Huang, it's just that far water can't quench your thirst, so I ask Master Huang to bother more tonight."
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it."
Seeing that Huang Shi agreed, Chen Fan was relieved. You can't have the heart of harming people, and you can't have the heart of guarding against people, so you must be careful. And today I heard about the art of tongue debate, but in the future you can pay attention to find it, if it is in the Taoist temple from this classic, you have to find a way to learn, one more protective skill, always a little more safe.
Before the time came, Chen Fan, Xiao Qing and others had already arrived at the sea restaurant, as the host of the treat, Chen Fan arrived a quarter of an hour in advance, and when he arrived, Hou Feng had already set up a private room.
It's not time, everyone has arrived, the people are quite complete, and the one who went to Baihuazhou is not pulled, and they are all here.
"Dao Xuan, today you are the east, as everyone's first gathering, you say a few words, we have a banquet." Everyone arrived, but unexpectedly, before it started, Li Shi gave Chen Fan a problem.
"Okay." Chen Fan did not hesitate and agreed.
Sometimes, others have already mentioned it, and you can't hide if you want to, so it's better to be generous.
"Fellow students, it's rare for us to meet here today, I know that everyone has some questions about how I and Yuantong came to the Taoist Temple to study, I will introduce myself first, my Taoist name Daoxuan, is the master Jia Shuojia Master gamma, due to accidental soul damage, was sent to the Taoist Temple by his father to practice, the common name Chen Fasheng, is quite fond of Go, originally went to the academy to learn chess, but I didn't expect the providence of God, and entered the Taoist Temple to become a disciple."
"Wait, but Chen Fasheng, who wrote "Nineteen Roads"?" Mei Gang suddenly interjected and asked.
"Exactly." Chen Fan nodded and admitted.
"You also wrote a few poems, and my favorite is 'Drinking and Drinking.'" Li Shi said next to him.
"Thank you." Chen Fan nodded and thanked Li Shi.
"What is the content, what are the songs, let's listen to them too." Wu Tong answered.
"Yes, read it to us." Lan Jing echoed.
"Okay, when we eat, I'll read it to everyone, and everyone will listen while eating."
At the moment, Chen Fan didn't refuse, but he just wanted to recite the poem, which took a long time, and it was not too late to read it later.
