The next day, Jiang Fang got up early from the room and stretched out refreshed.

It's not that I sleep refreshed, but the old man taught me that the method of cultivating qi is really good, and the body has a feeling of being comfortable all over. Although he had no obvious discomfort before except for the sudden discomfort when Niu Yi was in formation, he had never felt this way.

Physiology affects psychology, and after being refreshed, Jiang Fang is not as pessimistic as last night.

Although the old man said: Although he has not lost all of his seven spirits, it is not easy to condense the lost thief and non-poisonous spirits, and the method of cultivating qi taught to him is only to enter the Tao, which can regulate his breath and hide the ghost qi on his body, but the two spirits will have to rely on chance to condense it again, and the other damaged five spirits will also have to be replenished.

Guo Xiaohua's gratitude condensed into a red joy, and gave it to him after he helped catch the demon, this merit can be used to swallow the thief's body, and the ghost qi on his body cancels out a little bit.

All in all, it is a long way to go, and you have to repair and cherish it.

In the previous life, the most difficult thing for Jiang Fang was to serve the leader's fickle mind, which was not something that could be done with hard work, it was simply Ling Chi's patience.

Nowadays, although it is difficult, there are rules and routines, just follow it, as long as you work hard.

So what is there to worry about?

Jiang Fang felt that the air was sweet, and the flowing clouds in the sky were also very beautiful.

He hummed and walked through the corridor, groping his way to find the kitchen, passing by the front hall to see if Li Xi was awake, and if not, he would go and get breakfast himself.

As a result, when I passed by the front hall and glanced in, my leg almost broke off-

"Why are you still here?!"

The old man sat on a table with a bunch of grapes in his hand, and ate from the bottom up, spitting out grape skins and grape seeds all over the place!

Jiang Fang rubbed his eyes, yes, this old man is the old man last night!

Shouldn't he be leaving?!

Hearing Jiang Fang's exclamation, the old man remained motionless and continued to chew heavily.

"This?" Jiang Fang couldn't believe his eyes,

Last night, the old man said a lot, like the advice of the master before he left, and now he is spending the morning light, sitting and eating without eating, which is too damaging to the self-cultivation of the master.

"Old man, this is not my home, and this grape is not mine. You ......" Jiang Fang was worried that Li Xi would blame, so he reached out to get his grapes, and the old man turned around, spun around on the table and let Jiang Fang pounce on the air, and sat on the corner of the table to continue eating.

"Would you like to pay attention to your image? You're going to scare my friend. ”

Jiang Fang frowned, thinking about waiting for Li Xi to come over, not knowing how to explain the grape skins in this place, and where this old man was sacred.

The old man sniffed, ate the grapes to the bottom, and threw them back casually: "Scare your friend? Am I scary? I am also the one who taught you how to save your life, are you belittling your friend or are you burying me?"

Jiang Fang wanted to say something, but Li Xi hurriedly ran in behind him: "Lao Wang, Lao Wang, it's time to eat." I cooked your favorite zongzi, well, the flavor you wanted, red dates and bacon zongzi. Huh, Brother Jiang, are you up too?"

"Zongzi?" the old man jumped down from the table and responded: "Hehe, you stinky boy, you like to eat it yourself, it seems that you have prepared it for me." ”

"Why, didn't I have it for you. Hey, Brother Jiang, come and sit down together. ”

The old man and Li Xi talked and laughed, and they looked very familiar.

And Jiang Fang, who was in the same place, also captured important information inside and outside the words.

Lao Wang.

Lao Wang?

Old and king and fine channel technique,

Could it be that he is the boss of the cultivation division that Li Xi said, Wang Bingshan?

Thinking of the old man's sentence last night, "He is just an ordinary old man, what qualifications does he have to call himself a senior?", the more I listen, the more compelling I become! Even the posture of spitting out grape skins is with a light and breezy chic!

"Wait for me!"

Jiang Fang hurriedly followed,

When I arrived at the dinner table, I saw that the old man was indifferent, and he couldn't talk about it.

"Brother Jiang, sit down. Li Xi lifted his apron and rubbed his hands, pushed the porridge to Jiang Fang, saw his expression, suddenly reacted, and hurriedly spread his finger to the old man: "Oh, Brother Jiang, look at me so confused, I forgot to introduce it to you." Lao Wang, this is Jiang Fang, my benefactor's eldest brother, if it weren't for his help, I would have been slandered and lost the utensils and couldn't tell clearly; this is Lao Wang, that's what I told Brother Jiang, Wang Bingshan, the head of the government in charge of the cultivation department, is known as Lao Wang. ”

Lao Wang glanced at Jiang Fang and was noncommittal.

Jiang Fang hooked the corners of his mouth a little embarrassed, not knowing whether to say that he knew or not.

Say you know, well...... I feel that I definitely don't know as much about Lao Wang as Li Xi. After all, knowing that his surname is Wang, it just happened.

I don't know, the old man almost killed him last night, and he really taught him how to survive.

Lao Wang ate the zongzi on the plate intently, swallowing them together, Li Xi smiled and said, "Lao Wang, when did you come back?

"Do you want to ask this, or do you want to ask the surname Niu?"

"Ahem, Lao Wang, you are in charge of the Cultivation Division, not only our county government, but all the people in Xinyang County can take reassurance. ”

"What, without the old man, do you have anything you can't do?" Lao Wang drank a large mouthful of rice porridge and burped. "Didn't the murderous thing that happened in the county solve it very well yesterday? ”

"It's hard to repeat this kind of luck. Li Xi glanced at Jiang Fang with trepidation, and then continued to smile at Lao Wang, "Lao Wang, the ghost essay you left behind is naturally useful, but if we encounter a higher grade, we can't suppress it." That's why you're in charge. ”

Thousands of wears, sycophants don't wear,

Although Lao Wang's face was expressionless, the speed of peeling zongzi was much faster.

If Jiang Fang guessed correctly, the current Lao Wang should hum in his heart, "The most beautiful is sunset red"?

Sit down, take a bowl and drink two sips, the porridge is soft and glutinous, it is very good, and I tasted other side dishes, the taste is also OK.

This made Jiang Fang a little surprised: "I really didn't expect you, a young master, to be able to cook and cook." ”

If it is put aside in modern times, it requires people to develop in all aspects, this is the standard warm man, especially liked by little girls, but in ancient times, it was still very rare for the eldest young master to cook soup and soup.

"Ahem, what's this. Li Ximei scratched the back of her head with a smile: "If Brother Jiang likes to eat, I will often do it in the future." ”

"Didn't you say there was cooking, why did you cook?"

"Oh, she'll be here later. Isn't it too early for us to do so? The old king is also here, and I am afraid that you will be hungry. Li Xi explained.

"I see. Jiang Fang nodded, and asked again: "Li Xi, why do you want to enter the government as an errand?"

This is a question he has wanted to ask for a long time.

Yesterday, I went home with Li Xi, from the furnishings at home to the conversation, the more I felt that this eldest young master loved life and understood life, the more strange it became.

A good leisure day, but why do you want to do this tiring errand, and there is still danger.

"There's no other reason, it's just that I'm idle, so I'll go into the yamen to help. ”

Li Xi said quickly, and after finishing speaking, he gave Jiang Fang a chopstick dish, as if he wanted to plug Jiang Fang's mouth with the food.

Lao Wang next to him didn't know when he finished solving the two meat dumplings and a bowl of porridge by dividing them by two, and put down the bowl and got up with a bang: "Where is the surname Niu now?"

"Oh, the boss should go to the government to report to the magistrate about yesterday. ”

"Pretend to be diligent. Lao Wang frowned: "Then I'll go first! I don't want to bump into him." ”

Eat dry and wipe clean, pat your butt and walk away.

This made Jiang Fang have new doubts - Lao Wang couldn't even look down on Niu Yi, why did he get along so well with Li Xi?

"Li Xi, are you familiar with Lao Wang?"

"I can't say that I am very familiar, after all, I have only been in the government for a short time. ”

"Then I see that you and he are quite familiar with him. ”

Li Xi smiled: "That's because my family has meat dumplings that Lao Wang likes to eat, plus I just went in not long ago, and I am not the boss's henchman, so Lao Wang's face is not so ugly for me, and I can still say a few words, haha." ”

It is also feasible in the workplace to catch people and catch their stomachs.

......

After a while, when the two of them had eaten and drunk enough, they went out to do things.

Yesterday, he visited three households of the deceased in a row, and the ghosts that passed the first seven were not taken away by Yin Si always made Jiang Fang unable to understand.

Since Li Xi said that it might be related to the accident at the City God Temple, he wanted to go and see it.

On the way, Jiang Fang asked Li Xi: "You said that something happened to the City God Temple, what happened?"

Li Xi lifted the somewhat loose belt around his waist, and then shrugged his shoulders behind his hands: "Actually, there is nothing wrong, it is that on the eve of the headless female corpse case in the county, the City God Temple went to water." It was supposed to start repairing a long time ago, but there were dead people, everyone in the county was in danger, and the workers who built it went back. However, it is estimated that it has been renovated by this time. ”

I see.

Jiang Fang and Li Xi walked south, walked out of Shuangyang Street, first smelled incense, and then saw the City God Temple.

Yellow bricks and red walls, black tiles and green edges, the octagonal face the sky in several directions, the two annexes next to the main building lean back, the left place where a few workers gathered together and are still doing repair work, and a large incense burner is placed in the open space.

There are three stalks of Optimus incense that are large and eye-catching, and the smoke is curling,

Pilgrims and people shuttle, endlessly.

It seems that even if the temple is still under repair, it does not prevent them from coming with a pious heart.

Jiang Fang felt that most of it was because of the headless female corpse, everyone was frightened, and they came to pray for the safety of their families and the future of the county.

Out of his mind, an old man wearing plain clothes and white hair walked over and rushed to Amitabha Buddha on the side of Jiangfang: "Li Gongzi, you are here." ”

Li Xi hurriedly returned the salute: "Steward Xiao." ”

Steward Xiao is the steward of this City God Temple, and he usually manages the incense money given by the pilgrims, and he is willing to give back to the people and other large and small operations in the temple. He is kind and fair, and has a lot of prestige in the county.

"The food and clothing sent by Li Gongzi last month were properly distributed to the poor and needy, and there was still surplus. This month, we will continue to open the porridge factory and continue to receive help. ”

"Okay, good, Xiao is naturally reliable, and he has to work hard. I've been busy on an errand for a while, and I haven't been here for a long time, so the abbot will take me to the pillar incense, right?"
