Chapter 271 Arrangement
When Li Chuan returned home with Feng Zhang, Jiang Mei and Wu Kong had not returned yet, but Chang Xiao and Tong Luo were at home.
"Mr. Li, are you back? Where are Master Wu Kong and Daoist Jiang?" Chang Xiao asked after seeing Li Chuan.
"They have something to do, and they will probably arrive soon." Li Chuan estimated that the two men were going to investigate the old monk's origins. He didn't say much, and just introduced Feng Zhang to Chang Xiao and Tong Luo. People know each other.
Li Chuan said: "This is the sharp archer I mentioned to you. You can just call him Uncle Tong. There is also Mr. Chang. His sword skills are very powerful. We can learn from each other." ”
Feng Zhang heard this and immediately asked them for advice.
Chang Xiao and Tong Luo saw that Feng Zhang was smart and knew etiquette, so they were willing to teach him.
Seeing that they had a good chat, Li Chuan walked to the backyard and found Gong Er under the re-erected grape trellis. He asked: "Where is the third brother? Where has he gone?"
Gong Er said: "The third brother went to the river to fish."
"Why didn't you go together?" Li Chuan asked.
Gong Er replied: "I'm thinking about it at home. Can I get older? Otherwise, when I go out with my third brother, others will think that I am his son."
Then he said: "Brother, I want to Go to the Sishen Palace to find Mr. Goose and see what he can do."
"We can go together after the New Year's dinner with Brother Tong," Li Chuan advised. "Daozhang Wen is not here. , without the fairy boat, even if we take a carriage, it will take ten and a half days. Why don't we wait for the wedding wine and ask Director Jiang to send us there. "
" Did the eldest brother come back by carriage today?" Gong Er asked.
"Well, I had an idea today, so I gave it a try, and I can barely control it." Li Chuan replied: "I plan to try to change the Mingxian Pendant again in a few days. This should answer I’m somewhat sure.”
After Li Chuan and Gong Er chatted for a while, Pang San returned with a fish basket.
Although it was winter and the river was covered with ice, Pang San still had a good harvest.
He poured the fish into the fish tank and said: "Brother, do you want to eat grilled fish for lunch? Or make fish soup?"
"Let's make fish soup, be lighter and keep your health." Li Chuan said.
“I saw steamed mutton for sale in the market in the morning, so I bought some. However, I didn’t know if my eldest brother would be back today, so I didn’t buy much.” Pang San said.
"Well, we have guests coming today. You can go buy some food and get some wine later." Li Chuan ordered.
"Okay, I'll go after cooking the fish." Pang San said.
After chatting with Gong Er Pang San for a few words, Li Chuan suddenly felt something. He turned his head and looked back and saw Jiang Mei walking out of the house.
"Director Jiang, are you back? Where is Wu Kong?" Li Chuan asked.
Jiang Mei said: "He is in front, teaching the kid how to stick."
He glanced at Gong Er and San and said, "Brother Li, let's go for a walk outside?"
"Okay." Li Chuan agreed.
Then they walked out of the back door and walked straight forward to the ridge of the field.
The snow on the field ridge has not yet melted, reflecting the thin sunlight.
Li Chuan was the first to ask: "Director Jiang, did you and Wu Kong discover anything?"
"Last night Wu Kong took me to the place where he saved the old monk, and several places where he scattered his ashes. I suspect that the old monk is a descendant of the demon clan." Jiang Mei told Li Chuan about him He and Wu Kong investigated the results of a night. "But... I guess I still need to use the Yuanhuo Mirror to deduce his origins." "I will make up for it as soon as possible." Li Chuan said.
"Don't worry, I have other ways. But...Wukong possesses the secret skills of the demon clan, but he doesn't have much cultivation. If he is targeted by someone with intentions, he will "It's very dangerous." Jiang Mei said, "Now the catastrophe has begun, and demons and ghosts appear frequently. He also aims to conquer demons and it is only a matter of time before he is noticed."
Li Chuan knew that Jiang Mei was not an alarmist, so he asked, "What does Wukong think?"
"I told him, he doesn't care." Jiang Mei replied.
"What is Director Jiang planning to do?" Li Chuan asked.
Jiang Mei replied: "It is best to get the protection of Mount Xumi. I offered to introduce him, but he refused. He said that the old monk taught him scriptures and he collected the corpse for the old monk. This matter The matter is over."
Jiang Mei sighed slightly and said: "He also said that he should not have revealed the old monk's burial place, but the matter involved the demon clan. He can only betray his promise to the old monk."
Li Chuan said: "Since he said this, it is not easy to persuade him."
Jiang Mei heard this. , stared at Li Chuan for a while and said, "I thought you would persuade him. With a scroll of scriptures, he could figure out a set of corresponding stick techniques. With his understanding, after entering Mount Sumeru, You will definitely achieve something.”
Li Chuan smiled and said nothing.
“There’s another thing.” Jiang Mei continued to walk forward, and Li Chuan followed.
Jiang Mei said: "A few days ago, I went to Guyue Gate."
"Did you find anything?" Li Chuan asked.
"The Four Gods Palace has taken the inheritance of the Guyue Sect. They will select suitable people from the disciples to practice the Guyue Sect's skills so that this sect will not disappear completely." Jiang Mei said.
"That's pretty good." Li Chuan commented.
"Thanks to Tong Luo. I have observed his behavior these days. Although his qualifications are average, his temperament is very good and he is a talent that can be made. So I plan to use the ancient Yue Sect's method of controlling beasts. The introductory part was taught to him," Jiang Mei said.
"That's great. Brother Tong is already good at archery. After learning how to control beasts, it will be easier for him to hunt and catch monsters on weekdays." Li Chuan was happy for Tong Luo and said doubtfully: "Isn't it said that the method of controlling beasts has been lost?"
"The introductory part has been re-completed." Jiang Mei answered Li Chuan's question.
"Director Jiang, are you leaving?" Li Chuan suddenly realized something.
"I'm going to investigate something." Jiang Mei saw Li Chuan's expression and said, "There's still a month or two until I finish teaching Tong Luo. Then I'll send you to the Four Gods Palace, or you Want to go to Tianyu Gate and Xuanyue Gate?”
“Let’s go to the Four Gods Palace.” Li Chuan said. He thought of the method of climbing high and said, “Director Jiang, can you also teach me the method of climbing high? Tong Luo and Wu Kong?"
Jiang Mei agreed and said: "This is simple, I will teach them later."
"By the way, Prince Su may be related to the devil. We have asked the general to send people to investigate his fiefdom. If we find out any information, can I send you a message?" Li Chuan asked.
“Thank you for your trouble, I might as well go there.” Jiang Mei said.
After the two chatted for a while, they walked back. Li Chuan saw smoke rising from the kitchen in the distance. As he got closer, he smelled the aroma of fish soup.
After walking home, Li Chuan saw Chang Xiao dancing with a knife in the backyard, and the white blade light fell like snowflakes. Feng Zhang watched with fascination and wished he could become Chang Xiao's disciple immediately.
