Chapter 214 [Ideal of Farming Cattle]
Fang Chang put away the letter paper, smiled at A Niu:
"Continue to eat."
"Um."
The two slowly emptied all the food in the bowls and plates.
A Niu, as he has been used to recently, got up to pack the dishes and went to wash in the running water of Huanhuaxi.
Fang Chang walked back into the room, took out a piece of paper and spread it on the table, added some water to the inkstone, took out a block of homemade ink, and lightly ground it a few times.
Then he soaked the pen that had not been used for a few days in water, waited for a while until the tip of the pen melted, then dipped the pen into the ink, and wrote two lines on the paper:
"knew."
"If you have anything to do, you can use the blank space of this paper to reply."
The level of self-made paper is getting better and better. Although it is still not white enough, it feels good to write on, it holds ink very well, and the paper is firm.
He dried the ink gently, folded the paper into a flat-headed paper airplane, then opened the glass window, pinched the middle part of the paper airplane, and threw it lightly in the air.
The paper plane drew a white line in the sky, quickly crossed the edge of the cliff, flew down, and then jumped up suddenly, facing the direction of the sun, and plunged into the clouds.
Fang Chang smiled and was about to close the window again.
He saw not far away, Ah Niu came out of the kitchen, and seemed to have packed the inside, so he shouted to his disciples:
"A Niu, come here."
"Okay." Ah Niu responded, and immediately walked towards this side, walked through the hall into the house, bowed in front of Fang Chang and asked, "What is the master's order?"
"Get ready, let's go down the mountain together."
"good."
A Niu was taken aback when he heard what Master said, but he knew a long time ago that such a day would eventually come.
Being well-behaved, he didn't think too much, but after agreeing, he silently went back to the guest room where he was staying and packed his luggage.
Fang Chang noticed that Ah Niu was a little depressed, but he didn't make a sound, but let himself, the registered disciple who was about to leave, be dull.
Dependent origin and extinction are common things in the world.
If you can rely on your own strength to penetrate this point, there will be many benefits for Ah Niu's practice.
He also turned around, took out the usual green cloth from the cabinet, and skillfully started packing. On weekdays, he never left the Lingquan sword, which was originally on his back. The wine gourd was also taken off the wall and hung on his waist. After returning to the mountain, he didn’t drink much wine in the gourd. Many cylinders.
The old clothes used for replacement were also put in the package, and there were some small odds and ends, but relying on the descaling technique on his hands, he has not needed to change clothes these times when he went down the mountain.
Because it is still summer, Fang Chang didn’t have many snacks in store, and he didn’t have much to put in, so he had to cancel this item regrettably. Instead, he went to the shed outside, took a lot of silver and put it in.
The small table knife has been replaced with a leather sheath and inserted in his arms. This is also a very convenient tool after going down the mountain.
"Master, I am ready."
After a while, Fang Chang went out and found that Niu who had packed his luggage was already waiting for him in the hall. Ah Niu didn't have much luggage, not even a change of clothes, and he didn't even have the fabric for wrapping.
Although there are abundant products on Yunzhong Mountain, Fang Chang has not yet learned how to weave and cannot conjure cloth out of thin air. Therefore, A Niu, who lives on the fairy cliff, only has the clothes he got when he transformed.
A Niu was just carrying a basket, which was something that Fang Chang filled with baked sweet potatoes and gave to him when he first climbed the cliff.
"Wait a minute."
Fang Chang walked back into the room, opened the closet, and took out a small piece of cloth.
That was the package that the store gave him when he ordered clothes at the foot of the mountain. Although it can't be used as a wrapper, it is good to cover the mouth of the bamboo basket.
"Thank you, Master."
"It's just a piece of cloth...A Niu, come with me."
A Niu followed Fang Chang out of the door obediently. Fang Chang checked the doors and windows, locked the door with a simple copper lock made by himself, and then led A Niu to the work shed.
He pointed to the many tools in the shed and said:
"Aniu, what tool do you like? Choose one."
He looked carefully, and didn't choose a knife or axe. Instead, he settled on a **** in the corner. Since his transformation, he often used it in the field on the cliff, and it was very convenient.
"Master, I choose this."
"Okay, see you off, take it down the mountain."
Fang Chang signaled him to go forward to take it. A Niu's character is not fond of empty words. According to what the master said, he stepped forward, picked it up with one hand, and carried the bronze **** on his shoulder.
Without waiting for Ah Niu to say anything, Fang Chang walked to the side again, chose a copper ingot and a silver ingot, and gave them to his registered disciple together:
"I have been on the mountain for two years, and I have no treasures to give you." He said in the eyes of Ah Niu watching him: "Now you are going to go down the mountain, take this **** for self-defense and use. By the way, these silver and copper you Take it well, and slowly exchange it for money after going down the mountain, life will be much more convenient."
A Niu didn't say much, just saluted.
Chang Fang also had his own considerations for giving him the money. After all, Ah Niu was pure-hearted and had lived in a mortal’s house in Huqiao Town.
Since I have enough resources, I might as well take it one step at a time, and let him experience a rich life after going down the mountain.
As if knowing that he was about to leave, A Niu looked around and prepared to keep this beautiful fairy cliff deeply in his heart.
After all, according to what the master said, the relationship between the two of them as master and apprentice is almost broken in the future, and it should be difficult for me to return to the cliff in the future.
"Let's go."
Fang Chang took Ah Niu to the stone ring on the edge of the cliff, and went straight down the plank road.
The plank road is very high. The master and the apprentice just walk down slowly at a normal walking speed. Although it takes a lot of time, you can enjoy the scenery in the south of Xianqi Cliff.
Halfway through, Fang Chang took the lead to speak:
"Not far below is the real mountain gate. Before that, you and I set up a formation by the lake at the foot of the cliff, and only let those who are destined to enter."
"Not far below is Linxi Village, which is a little distance from the official road. Once on the official road, you can go anywhere."
"A Niu, where are you going next? What are you going to do in the future? Have you imagined it before?"
Hearing Fang Chang's question, Ah Niu nodded.
He had thought about this matter a long time ago, so he was not as slow as usual, but said quickly:
"I want to go to Huqiao Town first, to have a look at Ah Huang's current situation, and also to see the current situation of the master's family."
"Since you have bestowed so much silver and copper, Master, I am not going to travel too far. I want to follow the Baigou River outside Huqiao Town to the place where the river flows into the river in the south, buy a house, buy a few acres of land, and be a good farmer. .”
Thank you Wang Banxian and Alloy Niu Niu for your rewards.
