Chapter 67: The Plague in the North of the City
In the eyes of the students in the academy now, I should be a genius, right?
But for now, it shouldn't be too exaggerated......
Character design is very important!
Being a genius is enviable, but it also has advantages and deceptions, and you need to grasp it well.
Ordinary people face geniuses, at first admired, then jealous, and then admired.
On top of worship, if you break it again, I'm afraid it's fear......
When it reaches the level of fear, it will cause many unwarranted disasters!
Fang Cun is deeply touched by this, so he also understands what kind of person he should be.
At first, before he entered the academy, he wanted to be a mediocre person, but when he broke into the back mountain, he was in the limelight, and he left an impression of talent in the hearts of everyone, and when the old master Zhong Yue preached, he was in the limelight, and then entered the mountain with Nanshan, and beheaded an old demon.
At this level, it is easy to recruit villains, and unknowingly get into some trouble.
However, in the Blue Frost Pavilion, he borrowed the book of merit to show his talent among the scriptures, and he entered the realm quickly, judging from the attitude of his classmates, Fang Cun also understood that at this time, he had actually surpassed the level of jealousy.
At this point, some villains feel that there is no need to disagree.
When the gap is too large, they will recognize the gap and will not harm others.
And now, what I have to do is to continue to deepen this impression, but to make people feel that my second son, the younger brother of the immortal master, is very talented in this area, which is a very normal and reasonable thing, and there is no need to be jealous.
......
......
From the next day, Fang Cun continued to go to the academy as usual, but his homework was much heavier.
In the eyes of ordinary people, Fang Ergongzi not only practiced every night and gradually increased his cultivation, but also had to study the "Sutra of Arts" and "Spiritual Sutra" every day, and study the method of imperial objects every day, which can be described as busy all day long, and his way of knowledge was also rapidly improved at this time.
And seeing Fang Cun's daily hard work, it also touched many classmates in the Blue Frost Pavilion.
The second son of Fang is so genius and so diligent, I can't wait to work hard, how can I succeed?
If you don't work hard, you will be left far behind in your cultivation in the future, so how can you have the right to complain?
With such thoughts, there are many people who are already diligent and pendeficial, and they have increased their strength several times.
inadvertently triggered this good atmosphere, but it was also something that Fang Cun hadn't thought of before.
Suddenly, half a month has passed, and Fang Cun's Qi refining knowledge has become more and more profound, to a certain extent, he is faintly about to catch up with these Blue Frost Pavilion students, and even in some aspects, it is deeper than these students' insights!
If the days only pass like this, it will be leisurely, but the line that was released before has been slowly recovered.
First of all, Xiao Qingliu, who rarely stayed in the house during this time, came back and said: "Our family's treasure ginseng has been sold!"
Fang Cun was teasing the little fox girl with a small fur ball, and when he heard this, he asked with a smile, "How much did it sell?"
"This strain of ginseng, let alone earn 20,000 taels!"
Xiao Qingliu said mysteriously: "Childe told me before, our ginseng, is worth twenty or thirty thousand taels of silver, but there is no market, rarely seen on the market, as soon as I threw it out, let people sell forty thousand taels of silver, hung for more than a month, no one wanted, until the day before yesterday, suddenly a rich merchant in the city came to ask, I and the shopkeeper said that this ginseng has been set by others, the rich merchant is iron-hearted, willing to pay a high price, and finally took out fifty thousand taels of silver to ask for it, so let the shopkeeper give!"
"The little one followed the instructions of the son, quietly followed, and found out the origin of the rich merchant, although he was secretive and mysterious, but he still found out his next family, but it was unexpected, this foreign businessman, it seems, actually has something to do with the Swallowing Sea Gang......"
"The Sea Swallowers?"
Fang Cun was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that with this treasure ginseng, it was the murderers who fished out.
Xiao Qingliu said: "I'll come back first and tell the young master, if it's not enough, then I'll go back and go to the Sea Swallowing Gang to explore!"
"Not anymore!"
Fang Cun waved his hand and said, "There are a lot of evil cultivators in the Sea Swallowing Gang, and it's a bit dangerous for you to go there!"
Xiao Qingliu suddenly laughed: "Childe looks down on me, besides, if you do things for Childe, how can you care about any danger?"
"Really?"
Fang Cun looked at him with a smile.
"Of course!"
Xiao Qingliu's thin chest slapped loudly: "In the water and fire, as long as the son has a word!"
"Okay, then let's go and do something for Ben Gongzi!"
Fang Cun slapped him with a smile and said, "This son can't spend a lot of money, you go to Lao Huang's housekeeper to get three hundred taels of silver, and you are limited to three days to spend it for me, but if there is one or two left, break your legs...... And you can't stuff it to the widow with the door half-closed!"
Xiao Aoyagi was overjoyed: "Childe's orders, how dare the little one disobey?"
After sending Xiao Qingliu away, Fang Cun couldn't help frowning, slowly thinking about the intention of the Tunhai Gang to buy this treasure ginseng, but it was difficult to sort it out clearly for a while, and when he was pondering, he saw the old Huang butler running into his small courtyard with a happy face, and happily said to Fang Cun: "Childe, childe, it's terrible, that Fairy Meng in the academy...... Here we go again......"
"Looks like it's all coming to fruition......"
Fang Cun muttered in his heart, and asked people to change his robe and welcome him out.
When I arrived at the living room, I saw that Meng Zhixue had already been welcomed in, and was talking to Mrs. Fang with him, and the gifts brought this time were obviously more valuable, with an extra box of Yunwu Mountain Tea that Old Man Fang loved to drink, and Mrs. Fang's favorite Jade Zhen Pavilion jewelry.
"Fairy Meng, is this coming to my house to eat again?"
Fang Cun smiled and said hello to Meng Zhixue.
Old Man Fang and his wife immediately glared at him, blaming him for not being able to speak.
However, Meng Zhixue smiled lightly: "The cooking skills of the Fang Mansion are excellent, far from being comparable to the academy!"
Fang Cun smiled secretly, I'm afraid Fairy Meng will regret it because of this......
Sure enough, at the dinner party in Fang's Mansion that night, there were seven or eight more dishes at once, Old Man Fang diligently persuaded him, and Mrs. Fang kept picking up the dishes, and after eating a meal, Meng Zhixue's slender waist was obviously a little plump......
"This is also a stupid child, who doesn't know how to refuse ......"
Fang Cun thought in his heart, and he didn't remind him, he was very happy to watch the excitement!
After eating, it was naturally when Fang Er Gongzi and Meng Xianzi were walking in the garden, Meng Zhixue saw that there was no one around, so she turned around and said to Fang Cun with a solemn face: "Previously, according to Fang Ergongzi's idea, I laid eyeliner and eyes and ears in the major pharmacies in the city and the fang market outside the city, and checked the direction of those main longevity and longevity medicinal materials, but the results were not satisfactory......
Fang Cun was slightly stunned and said with a smile: "Don't you see any clues?"
"I see!"
Meng Zhixue shook her head and said, "It's just not what I expected, I have been staring at people for more than a month, paying attention to the circulation of such medicinal materials, but I found that most of these medicinal materials were actually bought by murderers like the Sea Swallowing Gang!"
"The Sea-Swallowing Gang again?"
Fang Cun frowned slightly, and after a while, he asked, "Do you know what they do when they buy these medicinal herbs?"
Xiao Qingliu is alone, and it is inconvenient to inquire about the news, but Fang Cun believes that Meng Zhixue should have other arrangements in this area.
"I inquired about it, but I gradually figured it out!"
Meng Zhixue sighed and said: "In the villages and towns forty or fifty miles north of the city, a few days ago, there was a great plague in the north of the city, the displaced people, countless dead and wounded, these life-prolonging medicinal materials we are staring at are just one of the main medicinal materials for the treatment of plague, this evil bandit and demon led by the Swallowing Sea Gang, is used to hoarding medicinal materials in order to make high profits, thinking that it is to take advantage of this great plague to make a windfall ......"
"The Great Plague?"
Fang Cun listened, his eyes flashed slightly inadvertently, and said, "Have many people died?"
Meng Zhixue's face darkened slightly, and said: "It is said that the corpses are piled up like a mountain, and the smell is ten miles, alas, I have already sent someone to help......
Fang Cun listened quietly, but her words did not reach her ears.
It was only after a long silence that he shook his head lightly and said, "It's a pity......"
Meng Zhixue nodded and said: "Indeed, it's just that the summer is in full swing, and when the plague is rampant, we are also ......."
Fang Cun interrupted her words, and sighed softly: "You said that a plague will take the lives of so many ordinary people, ten times more powerful than the demon who refines the human pill, isn't it a waste, if you knew this earlier, it is better to give these people who will die in the plague to those people to refine the human pill, it is not a waste......
"You ......"
Meng Zhixue was stunned when she heard Fang Cun say this, and her eyebrows were upside down.
"Second Prince Fang, isn't the life of the people fate?"
Her jade-like face was already flushed, and she said indignantly: "You are really ...... to speak."
As he spoke, his face was full of anger and he was ready to leave.
It's just behind her, looking at her with a smile.
"One!"
"Two!"
"Three!"
“......”
“......”
Meng Zhixue, who had just been angered and wanted to leave, was suddenly slightly stunned and turned around.
There was a look of disbelief on her face, and she looked at Fang Cun blankly and said, "This ...... Wouldn't it?"
Fang Cun just smiled faintly.
