Cultivation of Immortals Begins with Drilling Wood To Make Fire - Chapter 592
Chapter 592 [People are afraid of entering the wrong line]
Fang Chang went up to meet him, patted his apprentice on the shoulder as usual, and walked into the boundary of Yingtiao Stream.
“Every time you come to Xianqi Cliff, you will talk about the changes in your Yingtiao Stream, but so far I haven’t been here again. As a teacher, I am going down the mountain now and just passing by. Let’s see if this Yingtiao Stream is as you said. as fun as that.”
“Master, I’ll take you.” Hearing what Fang Chang said, Fu Qi was very excited, and led Fang Chang to walk back and forth in Yingti Stream for a few laps.
It can be seen that Fu Qi also got a lot of inspiration from Xianqi Cliff, together with some equipment and elixir species that Fang Chang gave him over the years, and relying on the unique terrain of Yingtiao Stream, Fu Qi’s rectification here is very pleasing to the eye.
Fu Qi built more buildings than Fang Chang. Along the mountain, large and small, the heights are uneven, and the bucket arches and cornices are very ingenious. These buildings are closely connected with the nature of the heaven and the earth, and they are integrated into one. Moreover, Fu Qi was very ingenious. In many key places, he built a gazebo, or a small corridor, or a stone table with two or three stone benches, so that the scenery can be adjusted more smoothly.
“Your Yingtiao Stream is more beautiful than Xianqi Cliff.” Fang Chang praised with a smile.
“It’s not as good as Master’s Xianqi Cliff. It’s just that the scenery here is inherently better, but it’s far inferior to the beauty of Xianqi Cliff. Since Master likes the scenery here, why don’t you stay for a few more days? My disciples are also welcome to ask for advice.” Fu Qi was very excited He said earnestly, with a look of anticipation in his eyes.
“There is nothing left and right, so I will stay for a few more days.” Fang Chang replied with a smile, and Fu Qi suddenly jumped for joy.
………
Since he has lived on Xianqi Cliff for nearly a hundred years, this time he went down the mountain, Fang Chang planned to spend more time wandering around the world.
It has been nearly a hundred years since I visited the world last time. At that time, the world was still in turmoil. Now it has been peaceful for a hundred years, and the prosperity of the world is far from comparable to the situation back then. So along the way, it will not be boring at all, but there will be new things and new things to see all the time.
Relying on his extraordinary hearing ability, he also heard many new stories and rumors.
The hundred-year Ansheng life, which has been full and warm, has given birth to a large number of delicacies, with various styles and very ingenious recipes, which make people linger.
Occasionally, you can also play the role of the person who brings the adventure, find someone who is destined, and give away the technical books, interesting articles, or worthless imitations that you have created on the cliff over the years. Calculating carefully, Fang Chang’s actions can be said to be a kind of sowing behavior. As for what kind of flowers will bloom and what kind of fruits will be formed in the future, there is no need to pay too much attention to it.
Anyway, he has already done this very well.
Because he found the Ning Shen Pei in the pawnshop, Fang Chang was going to see where Wei He was. When he communicated with Sang Ziping, the other party had mentioned it, so Fang Chang walked in the general direction.
The official road has not been war-torn, and after years of repairs, it is smoother and more solid, with less damage and more pedestrians and horses. The imperial court has a lot of money and has opened up many new paths. It feels good to walk on them. Fang Chang didn’t rely on walking all the time, sometimes he would rent a seat at a horse-drawn carriage, sit in a flat carriage, watch the scenery on both sides, and listen to the conversations of fellow travelers.
The wheels are generally made of wood and covered with iron, and they make a rattling sound when pressed on the road. The durability is actually mediocre, and they are hard-wired to the body, and the ride experience is also mediocre. However, the passengers are not surprised, and they are not in this situation. Very concerned. The journey is long, and not everyone is as interested in the surrounding scenery as Fang Chang, so the biggest pastime is to chat with fellow travelers.
“Brother looks like a scholar?” There was a middle-aged man next to Fang Chang, who was carrying two homespun packages, and spoke to a thin young man in literati attire.
“I can’t be considered a scholar, but I went to school for a while and knew a few words, and now I rely on this to make a living.” The young man said with a sigh, “The imperial examination is always hopeless, and I can’t carry my hand on my shoulder like this.” , can’t do heavy work, can only find some crooked ways.”
“It doesn’t need to be exposed to the wind and rain, it’s a good job.” The middle-aged man said, “Nowadays, there are more and more learned people like you, which is really enviable. I have to let my kid study hard. I have begged the school before My husband, if he is disobedient, beat him hard.”
“That’s how it should be. Although it is said that people with good knowledge don’t need to be beaten at all, if ordinary people want to be successful, they still need to hit hands a few more times.” A rather strong old woman next to him echoed, “My child was young But he was often beaten, I used to give him medicine and wiped my tears secretly, but now I am a small official in the state government, and I can be regarded as a bit promising.”
“Speaking of which, where are you going, brother?” After the people around complimented the old lady for a while, the middle-aged man continued to ask the young man dressed as a literati.
“Go to Changxin City, there is someone asking for a manuscript.” The young man was a little excited, “There is a lot of money for finishing the pen, if he is chosen, the food for the next year will be settled, so I made a special trip to go there. Don’t be hungry any more.”
Well, it’s really miserable, Fang Chang thought to himself.
He could see the real body of the person next to him from the very beginning, so he listened to their conversation with great interest. When people around heard this situation, they all felt pity, and sincerely wished the young man dressed as a literati a successful trip. The young people thanked them one by one, and then shrank in the corner of the cart, not knowing what to think.
The people around them became acquainted and chatted with each other. The parents were talking about everything, from the price of soybean oil to court rumors, from the neighbor’s embarrassing stories to Jianghu stories. Different people have different social circles, and also have different ideas. After colliding with each other, this journey is not boring.
The current mode of operation of carriages and horses is often that the sub-stations between two big cities depart from each other. Although a network has not been formed, it is sufficient. After all, you can get on and off the bus halfway, and the driver charges according to the distance based on his memory. The people around him changed a lot along the way, but the young pigeon spirit remained in the car until the end.
That’s right, the young man next to him is really a pigeon. This kind of situation has been common since ancient times. Many great monsters have been transformed into human beings to hone their state of mind in order to break through to a new level. However, Fang Chang has also met some big monsters, who think that the human world is more suitable for him, and simply give up practicing to enjoy life.
In short, everyone has their own aspirations, but the pigeon spirit in front may be a novice, and his life is quite miserable.
Fang Chang followed and stopped him: “I don’t think your trip will go well. Do you want to consider changing your career? Maybe it’s not suitable for this.”
Pigeon spirit was startled when he was called, but he was very smart. When he understood that he was not an ordinary person, he said truthfully: “The main reason is that he is not very good at other things, and it is difficult to move a single step in the world without money. I have been in school for a few days, but now I can eat a full meal when I am hungry.”
