Chapter 165 [Preparation for Repair]
The question of Wu Huaijin, the land lord of Huqiao Town, somewhat touched Fang Chang's blind spot in knowledge.
He asked with some doubts: "Gods will also respond to disaster?"
The Lord of the Earth gave a wry smile: "Of course there will be disasters, sentient beings can't avoid it, but compared to ordinary people, since gods don't often appear in the world, the loss rate has always been very low, and the news of death is often unknown to ordinary people. That's all."
Fang Chang apologized slightly, and said: "I really don't know much about this, but the direction of this catastrophe is also covered by the secrets of heaven. If you want to deal with it, you can only do your best and obey the destiny. It is useless to hide, it is better to live and practice as usual .”
After being silent for a while, it seemed that he suddenly figured it out, Wu Huaijin said:
"Shangxian is right. It is nothing more than 'do your best and obey the destiny'. Thank you for clarifying the confusion. I will guard this three-acre land and do my job well. Even if something happens, I will deal with it calmly."
Farewell to the land lord, on the way to find the inn, Hu Yun, who was beside him silently, seemed to have lost interest in the bustling scenery on both sides of the street, and kept thinking.
After a while, he suddenly asked:
"Sir, will I go down the mountain this time, will I experience calamity?"
Fang Chang turned his head, looked carefully at the top of the little fox's head, and said with a smile:
"I can't say that well, but I see that you have a deep fortune, and I think you can spend this time safely... I hope so, peace is the great fortune."
The little fox nodded.
There is an inn in front of it, but it is the first time for Fang Chang to visit this store, but the conditions inside are very simple, with only beds, tables and chairs, hot water and lights, and even unable to provide meals.
...
Come out from City God Zhao Rong, Fang Chang said to Hu Yun:
"Let's go eat something first, then go to the market to have a look, prepare some bunches of dried meat and four-color gifts, and go to the county school to have a look."
"Okay, Mr. Fang." Hu Yun nodded obediently.
After they left Huqiao Town early in the morning, they headed south to Ninghe Prefecture.
This is the second time for Fang Chang to come to this city, but he still has acquaintances in Ninghe Prefecture.
Before Liu Changqing was wronged, he once came here with Liu Ahuang and visited the local city god.
So after paying the city gate tax and entering the city, he took Hu Yun, prepared some simple gifts, and took the letter from Wu Huaijin, and went directly to visit the Temple of the City God.
Seeing the arrival of the "elderly master Fang Xianchang" he met before, the city **** Zhao Rong was very happy, and talked with Fang Chang for a long time.
After seeing the letter written by Wu Huaijin, he patted his chest even more, promising that if Hu Yun was in danger or had a problem in Ninghe Prefecture, he could come directly to Chenghuang Temple for help.
After that, Fang Chang prepared to arrange for the little fox.
His plan is to prepare for Bei Shuxiu, find a place for Hu Yun, and read and write.
When I walked out of the Chenghuang Temple, it was already afternoon, the autumn sun was strong, and the cool morning breeze disappeared completely. People on the road saw sweat on their foreheads again, and those who had the conditions thinned their clothes and changed into summer attire.
"What do you want to eat?" Fang Chang asked Hu Yun next to him.
"It's the first time I've come to the city. I don't know what to expect. Let's follow Mr. and don't be picky about food." Hu Yun said.
"Well, let's just find a convenient place." He didn't pick and choose, and directly found the nearest small restaurant, and led the boy directly into it.
The place here is really simple, and the meals sold are very simple.
The store steamed a large bucket of millet rice, served with a large pot of stew, and sold it by the bowl.
Because the same food has been cooked for many years, the chef is very skilled. Although the food is simple in form, it tastes good, so there are quite a lot of customers in the store.
The two ordered four bowls of millet rice, and each ate a bowl of stew.
The little fox spoke highly of the millet and rice stew:
"This meal is really good. I think it's better than tiger pancakes, but not as good as mutton noodles. After all, this millet rice with stew contains a variety of ingredients, including rice, vegetables, and soup. In contrast , the taste of Fuhu Pancake is too simple.”
Fang Chang said with a smile: "Besides, this one is better in terms of affordability. Is there a lot of sugar and meat oil in the Tiger Cake, and it is famous, so the price is a bit more expensive. You need to pay more attention when you live alone in the world. something like that."
At this point they had already paid their bills and were on their way to the market.
Hu Yun now has time to take a closer look at the city.
The buildings in the city are clean and tidy, with almost the same style, and it is obvious that there is a unified plan. This is a situation that will not happen in Huqiao Town.
There are more pedestrians coming and going on both sides than Huqiao Town, and unlike Huqiao Town, in addition to the townspeople in simple clothes, there are businessmen coming and going. There are many kinds of pedestrians in the city, which makes the little fox a little dizzy.
He lively said to Fang Chang next to him: "Sir, when I went down the mountain and entered Huqiao Town, I thought it was a good and prosperous place, but I didn't expect to find that it is much bigger than the town, and it is also too prosperous. It is simply not the same day. And Yu—do I want to stay here in the future?"
Fang Chang smiled and said:
"That's right, prepare Shuxiu later, let's go directly to visit the county school teacher and ask him to accept you, a blind boy, and I will find you a place to live and leave some money."
"Next, study hard, read and understand characters well, and experience this world of fireworks well. The opportunity to practice and move forward lies in it."
Hu Yun nodded again and again: "Yeah."
"In addition, all kinds of animals in this city have their own owners. Don't steal other people's chickens to eat." Fang Chang warned.
"Huh? Oh."
A flash of disappointment flashed across his face, and then it turned a little reddish. The little fox also secretly wrote this down.
"Well, the market is here."
Fang Chang stopped the current topic and pointed to the front.
From this street entrance, there is a large square open space, the ground is paved with blue bricks, and there are stalls inside, like grates, neatly arranged on the open space.
With a slight glance, you can see that the goods here are extremely rich, such as food, cloth, vegetables, non-staple food, ceramics, metal utensils, toys, furniture, rouge, gouache, and tools of all kinds... It is full, but organized.
It's not like outside towns, the stalls are all permanent.
There are also a lot of customers who come and go. They shop around to find the best quality and cheapest booth, and then vigorously bargain with each other. The two sides often come to a middle price like a saw.
Fang Chang opened the package, took out a consistent amount of money, hung it in Hu Yun's hand, and said: "You will live alone in the future, and you will have to buy vegetables and shopping. You take the money to buy everything you need for Shuxiu, which is considered exercise. "
Hu Yun was a little apprehensive, he gritted his teeth and took it, then turned his head and walked towards the market.
I came back after half an hour.
He finished very well, he was not slaughtered, but he also failed to bargain for a price, but he also bought everything needed for Shuxiu.
"Very well, let's go, let's visit the teacher's house." Fang Chang smiled.
He had already inquired about the specific address, but after knocking on the door, the two were rejected before they could say what they wanted.
The family members of the school teacher who came out of the probe, the probability said to them:
"Guests, please go back, my master is not seeing guests today."
