Chapter 80: The Boy in White
When the little fat man saw that Yang Zhuang was gone, he suddenly felt bored, so he also walked away from the hexagram stall and went on patrol. The little fat man woke up in a coma and felt that his spirit was much stronger than before. Even, even the legs that have been stiff for many days have gradually loosened up, which makes the little fat man happy, and full of longing and yearning for his future, rekindling the fighting spirit of becoming famous all over the world.
Walking to a quiet empty alley, the little fat man saw that there was no one around, and for a moment he was itchy, pulled out his treasure knife, and prepared to play a warm-up set. So, the little fat man put on a posture and made a move "Jiaolong goes to sea", and the treasure knife went up. Just like that, the little fat man was taken aback. Because, he saw that what was attached to this treasure knife was not the triangular pattern of the past. What the little fat man saw just now turned out to be a square pattern. The little fat man rubbed his eyes, and in order to prove that he had a vision problem just now, the little fat man took it up, and it was another "groundbreaking" knife.
With this knife split, the little fat man no longer needs to doubt. Because he really saw that the knife was mixed with a quadrangular pattern. That is to say, the little fat man has since entered the realm of the Four Elephants Period. If this is said, I'm afraid no one will believe it. A person who was given up by the master actually made leaps and bounds in his cultivation in a short period of time, and became a master of the Four Elephants Period. If Qiao Huacheng stood in front of the little fat man at this moment, I am afraid that he could only express his inner shock with a dumbfounded expression.
The little fat man's mood at the moment can only express his mood with ecstasy and ecstasy. The little fat man held a treasure knife in his hand, and walked down all the way with a knife technique, which was simply a hoarding wind, and it was difficult to splash water. At this moment, even if he encounters that little devil in Fusang again, the little fat man has the confidence to fight. Thinking of the little devil, a question arose in the little fat man's heart, how did this little devil and the Axe Gang die? Could it really be like Xu Ruochen said, after they were killed by Bi Yating and a mysterious person, they were taken advantage of by themselves? The more he thought about these things, the more headache he felt, and the little fat man simply didn't think about it.
The little fat man put away the knife, and with joy, walked out of the deep alley and came to the street. Seeing the bustling crowd again, the little fat man felt that he was in a particularly good mood today, and I don't know if it was related to his cultivation reaching the Four Elephant Period.
As soon as the little fat man took two steps, he saw Jin Bufu hurrying over. When the little fat man saw him in a hurry, he estimated that something was going on in the city again. So, the little fat man greeted Jin Bufu and asked loudly, "Second Brother Jin, why are you in such a hurry?"
Jin Bufu heard someone shouting, turned his head to look, and saw the little fat man. Jin Bufu stopped and said, "I just received a report that someone drowned in Youhu, and the prefect sent me to deal with the matter. You're here, so let's go together. ”
The little fat man nodded, followed Jin Bufu, and walked towards the hidden lake.
Lianyun City is not far from the hidden lake, and the little fat man has been there a few times, and he almost died there. Therefore, I am quite familiar with it. After a stick of incense, it will be on the shore of the lake. The little fat man has seen the beautiful scenery of the lake a few times, but he has no heart to enjoy the scenery for a few days because of the tolerance on his body. When I arrived at the edge of the lake, from a distance, there were about a dozen people in a circle around the lake. Needless to say, there was the scene of the murder.
The little fat man and Jin Bufu walked over quickly, and when they got closer, the group of people saw the official errand coming, and automatically made way of a passage. The little fat man and Jin Bufu passed through the gap in the crowd and walked closer, and the little fat man looked down at the drowning man and was taken aback. This little fat man has seen it, it is Yang Zhuangshi who asked the chief of Liuyun Dao to tell his fortune not long ago, and was calculated by the chief of Liuyun Dao that he would die in another country. It seems that this Yang Zhuangshi listened to the words of the Liuyun Daoist and hurried to go home for refuge. It's a pity that he still couldn't escape the bad luck of "losing his life in another country".
At that time, Jin Bufu was also at the fortune-telling scene, and now, Jin Bufu also recognized this unlucky guy surnamed Yang. Jin Bufu glanced at the onlookers and asked, "Which of you saw how he died." ”
As soon as Jin Bufu's words fell, a bearded man appeared in the crowd. This big man is about thirty or forty years old, and it can be seen from the bare muscles on his body that his body is full of explosive power.
"Back to the official, I saw it. At that time, I was fishing by the lake when I suddenly saw a man walking on the shore when his foot slipped and he fell into the water. At that time, I didn't even have time to collect the fishing rod, so I ran over to save people. Unfortunately, by the time he was rescued, he was no longer breathing. So, we found a brother to go to the yamen to report the case. ”
After listening to the beard's words, Jin Bufu leaned down and examined the corpse of the man surnamed Yang. Sure enough, as the bearded man said, the hapless man did drown. So, Jin Bufu took a pen and paper and wrote down the process of inspection. After a while, I returned to the yamen and handed it over to the prefect. After the prefect has seen it, he can send someone to notify the family of the deceased or bury the body.
The little fat man remembered what Liuyun Daoist said, and he said that he would meet a noble person recently. Originally, the little fat man didn't believe the words of the head of the Liuyun Dao, but after the incident of the man surnamed Yang, the little fat man believed the words of the head of the cloud for seven or eight points. So, the little fat man hurried back to the bazaar, wanting to find the Liuyun Daoist and ask him to explain in detail about the "nobleman" for himself.
After arriving at the market, the little fat man found that the hexagram stall of Liuyun Dao was no longer there. The little fat man hurriedly asked the nearby shopkeepers, did they know where the Liuyun Daoist had gone? The nearby shopkeepers said one after another that the Liuyun Daoist had just collected the hexagram stall and did not know where to go. Later, the little fat man learned that the Liuyun Daoist was now living in the True Martial Arts Temple outside the city. The little fat man explained a few words to Jin Bufu's second brother and went to the Zhenwu Temple outside the city.
There are two major schools of Taoism, one is the Quanzhen school, which mainly focuses on praying for blessings. The other faction is the Taiyi faction, which mainly focuses on subduing demons and catching ghosts, and drawing talismans to cure diseases. And this true martial arts concept belongs to the Taiyi faction. After the little fat man arrived at the Zhenwu Temple, he saw that the buildings here were quite majestic. Carved dragons and phoenixes everywhere, it looks like it has been some years. The incense is flourishing in the Zhenwu Temple, and believers who burn incense and pray for blessings can be seen everywhere. The little fat man asked all the way, and in the end, the deacon in the Taoist temple told the little fat man that the head of Liuyun Dao had placed an order in the temple. An hour ago, for some unknown reason, he packed up his things and said goodbye. The little fat man heard that the Liuyun Daoist was no longer in the view, and his heart was full of regret and loss. After thanking the deacon, the little fat man returned to the city reluctantly.
After returning to the city, the little fat man wandered around for more than an hour, and then it was time to make a difference. Because of the sudden departure of the head of the Liuyun Dao, the little fat man was very depressed. So, the little fat man returned to a station to change back into the ordinary clothes he usually wears, and came to Juxian Tower. The prefect rewarded a hundred taels of silver today, and the little fat man was ready to order something delicious and feast.
After arriving at Juxian Tower, the little fat man found a place near the window and sat down, and ordered a more sumptuous meal. Among them, the indispensable is the pig's head meat that the little fat man likes to eat. Before the meal was ready, the little fat man shook off his cheeks and began to eat.
The little fat man was enjoying eating, and suddenly heard a noise next to him. The little fat man was curious, stopped the chopsticks in his hand, and looked to the side. I saw that it was the shopkeeper of the store, arguing with a young boy. This boy is about twenty years old, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, wearing a white dress like snow, according to the experience of the little fat man, this dress is quite expensive, not ordinary people can afford to wear. Brother Gongzi is holding a folding fan in his hand, giving people a feeling of abundance and jade.
"Little second brother, I was in a hurry to go out today, and I really forgot to bring money. Otherwise, I'll go back and get the money and I'll send it to you right away, what do you think?"
Hearing the man in white say this, the little fat man already understood the reason for their quarrel. It seems that the dispute was caused by the fact that when the boy in white paid after eating, he found that he did not bring any money.
Although the boy in white said it was reasonable, the shopkeeper still didn't follow it, and said: "You don't give me this set, I've seen a lot of people like you." Although the person wearing it looks like a person, he cheats everywhere to eat and drink, and after eating, he says that he forgot to bring money. said that he was going home to get the money, but when he turned his face, he disappeared. If you can't afford to pay for this meal today, you won't want to leave this store. ”
The shopkeeper didn't mean to embarrass the boy in white, but a similar thing happened in Juxian Building. When the man in white heard this, his face was also a little embarrassed, he thought for a while, and said, "Otherwise, little second brother, the fan in my hand is worth hundreds of taels of silver." I'll mortgage it here first, and then I'll take the money and redeem it, what do you think?"
As he spoke, the man in white put the folding fan in his hand on the table. The shopkeeper glanced at the folding fan on the table, and didn't seem to see that he could be worth hundreds of taels of silver, and said, "No, if your fan is not valuable, then our store is not a loss." ”
The boy in white was at a loss, and when he didn't know what to do, he suddenly heard a loud voice say: "Little second brother, don't embarrass this son." Today's food money, I asked for it. ”
When the boy in white and the shopkeeper heard this, they turned their heads and saw a little fat man looking at this side with a smile. Obviously, the words just now came from the mouth of this little fat man. It turned out that the little fat man had already seen from the dress, appearance and demeanor of this boy in white that this boy in white was definitely not the kind of person who cheated and cheated as the little second brother said. Looking at his appearance, he really forgot to bring money today, the little fat man just got a hundred taels of silver today, and he was happy, so he said that he paid for the boy in white.
The shopkeeper heard that someone mentioned that the boy in white paid for it, so he turned his head and returned to the counter. The boy in white saw that the little fat man had relieved his siege, and he was grateful, so he walked straight to the little fat man's table.
