Chapter 21 Registration
Zhang Yifan rented an independent house in the name of Zhang San'er on Siyuan Street, which is far away from Wuhoupu on Sanyuan Street in Jiayuan District.
Zhang Yifan rented the house for a year, and paid a rent two floors higher than the surrounding rental price, saying that he didn't like to be disturbed, the owner of the house, Old Man Liu, nodded hurriedly and promised not to disturb, and then left with joy.
After settling Zhang San'er, Zhang Yifan went to the nearby daily grocery store to buy a few bedding and some pots and pans and other daily necessities.
He then went to the blacksmith shop and workshop to buy some weapons and equipment needed for his recent martial arts training. Originally, the owner of the blacksmith shop saw Zhang Yifan's somewhat childish appearance and was reluctant to sell his weapons to him, for fear of causing trouble. But when Zhang Yifan showed the Six Doors Capture Quick Token, he didn't say a word and asked the guy to wrap the weapon for Zhang Yifan, and it was cheaper than usual.
Zhang Yifan specially purchased a detachable iron gun for Zhang San'er, which was six feet one inch long and weighed about 40 catties. This weight is still relatively heavy for Zhang San'er, at least it is still very difficult for him to make it up now.
There are still two wooden frames for practice, standing wooden stakes, a number of lifting stones of different sizes, and wire nets for unknown purposes, and iron knots of thumb thickness and length, which almost consume the silver on Zhang Yifan's current body, and only some are left for the daily meals of the two.
When the two finished sorting out these, it was already evening, and then Zhang Yifan tirelessly discussed with Zhang San'er the goal plan for practicing martial arts in the next March, and unconsciously it was late at night, thinking that he would go to Wuhou Shop tomorrow to report, so he packed up and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Zhang Yifan got up and asked Zhang San'er to start practicing martial arts in strict accordance with the plan from now on, and he must lay a good foundation for three months.
He asked Zhang San'er to memorize the secret book of "Holy Torch Technique" and the internal strength of "Burning Sun Strength" first, and then guide him when he came back in the evening. At the same time, he told Zhang San'er not to ponder and cultivate on his own without a foundation, otherwise he would be injured in the meridians and become a waste, or he would go mad and die.
Zhang San'er nodded yes. Seeing this, Zhang Yifan went out with confidence.
Compared with the slightly dilapidated streets and houses of Siyuan Street, Sanyuan Street is much more prosperous and gorgeous.
The clean and spacious bluestone slab street, the various shops on both sides, the weaving flow of people and the endless flow of cars and horses all tell the wealth and prosperity of Sanyuan Street. And all this is thanks to the Sanyuan Temple, which stands on the west side of Sanyuan Street.
Although Sanyuan Temple is not big, it is indeed the most famous temple in Dujiang City and even the whole Huzhou. Whether it is to study and seek fame or to seek blessing and avoid misfortune or even to seek children, people from all over Huzhou and even all states of Chu come to Sanyuan Temple to pray for blessings and worship, and there are countless pilgrims who come here to burn incense every day, so Sanyuan Temple is full of smoke all day long, a scene of prosperity of Buddhism.
Among them, the master of the heavenly wheel of the high monk in the temple is even more remarkable, and the name of the three-yuan heavenly wheel resounded throughout the Chu country. In terms of fame, so much so that only the Wuji Taoist sect, a Taoist holy land located in Wuji Mountain, can be compared with the entire Huzhou.
You must know that Taoism is the state religion of Chu! This shows how famous Sanyuan Temple is, and it is no wonder that Sanyuan Street is so prosperous.
As for why Sanyuan Street and Sanyuan Temple are not in Sanyuan District, it is impossible to test, and in normal years, there are tourists who come to visit Dujiang City in the name of Mu Sanyuan Temple because of their names, and the result is naturally a trip in vain.
Zhang Yifan is going to Sanyuan Street Wuhou Shop this time, not far from Sanyuan Temple. He came to Wuhou Shop early to wait for the business trip, and after he finished the business trip, he was a junior fast class of the six doors, which made him faintly look forward to and excited.
Sanyuan Street Wuhou shop is quite large-scale, is one of the most important strongholds of the six doors of Dujiang City, there are one person in Tiangang to catch the head, two people to catch the head of the earth, Zhengyin and the assistant head catcher, all kinds of fast catchers, menzi, servants, miscellaneous servants and so on nearly 100 people, its jurisdiction from one yuan street to five yuan street, the scale is larger than the Yancheng County, of course, this only refers to the county area.
Therefore, in this Sanyuan Street, where every inch of land is valuable, the house occupied by Wuhou Shop on Sanyuan Street is not much better than that of Guiyuan Temple, which is not surprising.
In the Wuhou Shop Hall, Li Qing was in a particularly bad mood early in the morning.
"His grandmother's, it's been half a month, and there's no good news at all. Those fireworks and willow lane girls run to the yamen every day, making the stabbing master upset, annoying the old man every day, the old man's face is getting more and more unbearable day by day! If we can't catch that ** again, Lao Tzu will be transferred by the old man to guard the latrine, before Lao Tzu is punished by the old man, Lao Tzu must let you smell the smell of the latrine first!
"Yes, Boss. ”
"We're going to catch that **, Brother Qing!"
"Master Li, you have to order!" The headhunters of the six doors were also angry, and hurriedly assured.
"Old man Wei, is there a chick coming to report to us today?" Li Qing suddenly changed the topic and asked.
"Yes, boss, a junior fast class who came today is named Zhang Yifan, who is fourteen years old this year. A deacon who appeared to be in his fifties replied.
"Bastard! These deacons of the Six Doors are really getting more and more wasteful! These stinky hairy boys are also being led into the Six Doors! No wonder the Six Doors have become worse and worse over the years, and it is difficult to catch a thief! Wait a minute, tell that kid to go back and forth!" Li Qing said to Deacon Wei angrily.
"Boss, this Zhang Yifan was recommended by Prince Wang Wei and Lord Wu Tianhong to come to Dujiang City to practice in the six gates, you see..."
"Oh, I see. Why didn't you say it earlier, wait to see Lao Tzu's jokes, isn't it? Also, when is this, why hasn't this kid come yet, it's unreliable. Wait a minute, let him do chores in the backyard for half a month. Li Qing heard that it was recommended by Wang Wei and Wu Tianhong, and his tone was a little weaker, and he said with some annoyance.
"Uh... Chief, he's been waiting in the outer courtyard for more than half an hour. Deacon Wei said with some unnaturalness on his face.
"Then what are you still doing standing here, why don't you go and ask him to come to my study. Others, dismiss the meeting!" This old man Wei is getting more and more blind, looking for an opportunity to let him go to the toilet, Li Qing muttered viciously.
After about a cup of tea, Deacon Wei led Zhang Yifan to Li Qing's study.
"The junior catcher of the fast class is coming to meet Master Li!" Zhang Yifan, who had been waiting for more than half an hour, had no resentment on his face, and said respectfully.
Li Qing's heart moved, and then he asked, "Do you know what you need to do when you come to me?"
This lowly office is not very clear, and the deacon does not elaborate, but it is all at the command of the lord. ”
"Well, you're still young, and it's a bit hasty to arrange for you to arrest the thief. In this way, you can be a miscellaneous deacon in the backyard first, and then make other arrangements after familiarizing yourself with the environment here, do you have any opinions?" After speaking, Li Qing picked up the teacup in a hurry.
"Yes, sir. Zhang Yifan heard that he had to start with a handyman, although he was a little reluctant, but he was new to the city, and as a newcomer, he had no choice, so he nodded and responded.
Li Qing was quite satisfied with Zhang Yifan's attitude, and said happily: "Haha, okay, what is your martial arts now? There are still a few basic boxing techniques and sword techniques that can be regarded as beginners in the arsenal here, you can study one or two." ”
"Humble martial arts are still sparse and ordinary, and they can enter the realm of first-class masters. The subordinates already have a family heirloom martial arts, and Lord Xie is kind. After several battles with martial arts masters on the rivers and lakes, Zhang Yifan really felt that his martial arts were weak.
"Poof!" Li Qing couldn't help but take a sip of tea and squirted, "What! You have reached the realm of a first-class master?
"This humble position is not clear, it is Lord Wu who told the humble position that the martial arts of the humble position have entered the ranks of first-class masters. Zhang Yifan scratched his head and replied with some embarrassment.
Zhang Yifan really doesn't know what it means to be a first-class master. In just half a year, Zhang Yifan has come into contact with six first-class masters, one of whom is Xu Tianming, who has stepped into the realm of grandmasters with one foot, so his recent experience makes him think that first-class masters are very common, and there should be a lot of them.
But this is not the case, there are no more than a hundred first-class masters in the entire Huzhou that Li Qing knows, and this little hairy child in front of him is one of them, which makes him feel mixed in his heart.
Li Qing's face became serious, and he stared at Zhang Yifan for a long time, and then said, "It turns out that the three thieves of plum blossoms are folded in your hand, right? I should have thought of it a long time ago, otherwise how could that bastard get you here." ”
Zhang Yifan's eyes were red, and he said hatefully: "Yes, my lord." ”
"Okay, I got it. Since your martial arts have reached the realm of a first-class master, it seems a bit overkill to arrange for you to go to the backyard for miscellaneous labor. You will be responsible for patrolling Yiyuan Street in the future, you belong to the third team, Hu Erniu is your captain, go and report. Li Qing thought about it for a long time and said so, and sent Zhang Yifan away.
Only Deacon Wei and Li Qing were left in the entire study, and after a long time, Deacon Wei said cautiously: "Boss, is it okay to arrange it like this? ”
"Is there any problem, that kid is a first-class master, even if he meets that guy, he is not able to catch it, it can be regarded as giving him a chance to make meritorious contributions, you must know that the main personnel who catch this guy can get two thousand merit points." If the old bastard has an opinion, don't transfer him to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu has to keep an eye on him from time to time, which is very tiring. Li Qing obviously remembered something, and was in a very bad mood, looking at Deacon Wei's eyes more and more unkindly.
Originally, Deacon Wei wanted to say that there were a lot of smoke and willow alleys on Yiyuan Street, and whether it was inappropriate for Zhang Yifan to be young, but when he saw that this was wrong, he stopped when the words came to his lips, and immediately slipped out of the study with a confession.
On the other hand, Zhang Yifan came to the class room of the third team and officially started his career of catching fast in the six doors of Dujiang City.
