Cultivation Begins With a Mysterious Tripod/
Chapter 69: Sloppy Old Man
Before dawn,
Wang Fu, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes. He raised the corner of his mouth. Old Jiang had returned..
Sure enough, the door was opened the next moment, and Old Jiang Yan, who could not hide his joy, entered the room..
" Success?" Wang Fu asked tentatively when he saw Jiang Yan nod. He couldn't help but feel happy for his friend." It's good that you succeeded. Now that you've obtained the Red Heart Snow Lotus, I'm afraid you'll be one step ahead of me..
”
"It's not easy..
Jiang Yan shook his head slightly..
Wang Fu sighed in his heart and patted Jiang Yan's shoulder.
"The mood cannot be chaotic..
”
"On the path of cultivation, instead of advancing, you will retreat. During this period of time, you just need to prepare with all your strength. Leave the supervision to me..
”
He didn't persuade Jiang Yan not to rush, let alone ask Jiang Yan to give up. As a friend, support was the best help..
Jiang Yan did not refuse. He nodded and took out a 500-year-old snow lotus. He handed it to Wang Fu.
"Snow lotus is useless to me, keep it..
”
"Don't say useless things. You might be just a little short at the crucial moment. Take my snow lotus too. Whether you need it or not, I'll leave it with you first..
Wang Fu shook his head and refused. He even took out his own snow lotus and stuffed it into Jiang Yan's hand..
Seeing Jiang Yan's refusal, Wang Fu said half-jokingly,
" I'm only lending it to you temporarily. If you succeed, I, Wang Fu, will have more Foundation Establishment friends. If you fail…won't these things be mine when I collect your corpse?"
Jiang Yan was stunned and speechless..
The next day, an invisible barrier rose up in Jiang Yan's room. There were flags distributed at the four corners of the room, forming an array to protect the entire room..
Wang Fu threw out talismans and hid them around Jiang Yan's room to form the outermost defense for Jiang Yan. He also told the manager of Yuanyang Restaurant that no one was allowed to approach. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief..
"Old Jiang, it's up to you now..
”
After taking a deep look at Jiang Yan's room, Wang Fu returned to his room to meditate. Although his spiritual power grew slowly, it was better than nothing..
As time passed, Jiang Yan's room remained quiet. Perhaps Wang Fuxin was worried and could not calm down, so he decided not to cultivate or draw talismans. He went to Xia Du to stroll..
As the imperial city of the Great Xia Kingdom, Xia Du had all kinds of scenery and entertainment places. Wang Fu found nearly 20 brothels alone, and the girls in them were called Shui Ling. Unfortunately, they could not compare to the meaning of the Blissful Painting Boat in Xia Du's Immortal Watching Lake..
Wang Fu was now in the best position on the pleasure boat. On the left was the endless beauty of Wangxian Lake, and on the right was the dancing beauty in the middle of the pleasure boat..
Appreciate without transgressing.
Wang Fu's bottom line is not to break beauty before foundation establishment..
"Young man, why did you occupy the best position on the pleasure boat and get drunk alone?"
A sloppy old man suddenly sat down opposite Wang Fu, catching him off guard. He remembered that he had clearly given the owner of the pleasure boat enough silver to buy these two seats and not let anyone disturb him. Yet, a sloppy old man had actually broken in?
Do you still want to do this pleasure boat business?
Wang Fu swept his spiritual sense and saw that he lacked vitality and his body was empty. It was obvious that he was an ordinary old man who might die at any moment. Wang Fu immediately wanted to invite him out.
:.
"Senior, isn't it too unreasonable to invite yourself?"
" Irrational? I think you're the one who's being unreasonable. Who doesn't know that you're sitting in my old Zhang's seat?" The sloppy old man slammed the table and glared at Wang Fu angrily..
This sudden change made Wang Fu very puzzled. The old man in front of him seemed to have an extraordinary attitude. He actually dared to slam the table in front of him..
In the spirit of ignorance, Wang Fu was not angry..
" I paid for this position. Senior, did you remember the wrong place?"
"It's impossible to remember wrongly. Old Zhang, I always come to this place every time. Today, you occupied it and even said that I was unreasonable. You little doll have no manners at all..
The old man grabbed the wine jug on the table and poured it into his mouth, making Wang Fu's brows frown involuntarily..
Just as he was about to wave his hand and send this rude old man flying, the manager of the Bliss Boat happened to hear a commotion and walked in. He respectfully bowed to Wang Fu and said,
"Young Master, please calm down. This person is Zhang Shanhai, an elder of our Fang Master. Eight years ago, Zhong Deren thought he could enter the court as an official, but because he offended someone in the imperial palace, his title was revoked. He was depressed and frustrated, so he became like this..
”
"Young Master's seat is indeed the seat where Elder Zhang sat when he came to the pleasure boat. This lowly one blames me for remembering the wrong time, which caused embarrassment. Thank you for your magnanimity and not arguing with Elder Zhang. This lowly one will make decisions for the pleasure boat owner. From now on, Young Master's expenses when he comes to the pleasure boat will be free..
”
"What do you think, Young Master?"
Wang Fu was speechless after hearing the manager's words. He was also quite appreciative of the manager's smooth handling of things. Moreover, he did not care to make things difficult for the mortal elder. He immediately smiled and said,
"So there's such a reason. Since I'm an elder of the boat owner, I'm not a stingy person. If this elder doesn't mind, you can drink with me..
”
"Senior, what do you think?"
"Haha…You're a good kid, you're broad-minded. I have some ink in my stomach, so I know how to reciprocate..
Zhang Shanhai put down the wine pot in his hand and laughed loudly. He turned to the manager of the pleasure boat and said,"Xiao Liang, go and bring two bottles of good wine. I'm in a good mood today. I'll drink two glasses with this little child.".
”
"Old Zhang, wait a moment..
The steward of the boat heaved a sigh of relief and quickly retreated to prepare the wine..
In a few moments, two bottles of wine and some delicacies were delivered.
"Senior, please..
”
Wang Fu poured two glasses of wine and gestured to the slovenly old man..
"Haha…Not bad, not bad..
”
Zhang Shanhai raised his glass and clinked it with Wang Fu. The two of them drank wine together..
Perhaps there is a drink of affection, an old and a young will eat and drink while chatting up.
Most of them were the sloppy old man Zhang Shanhai who talked about his brilliant deeds. Wang Fu occasionally smiled and echoed a few sentences. Not to mention, this kind of story that listened to the ups and downs of others 'lives still had a special flavor..
" Little girl, what do you do? Which noble son are you?" Zhang Shanhai held a greasy chicken drumstick in one hand and a wine pot in the other. His turbid eyes glanced at the dancer in the middle of the pleasure boat from time to time and asked casually..
"I can't talk about your honor, but I'm just a traveler..
Wang Fu looked at the dishes that had been grabbed by the sloppy old man and really couldn't bear to move his chopsticks anymore. He could only drink the wine in his own wine pot..
"If you're not from the Imperial City, then your relationship is good…Don't look at the Imperial City's glamorous and bustling appearance, but it's actually dark behind the scenes..
" The sloppy old man looked around and revealed a disdainful expression." Old Zhang, I'm happy today. Seeing that you're a stranger, I'll make an exception and show you my abilities…"
" Oh? What ability?" Wang Fu teased..
After looking left and right, the sloppy old man leaned over and chuckled. He said in a mysterious voice,
"Divination, I know how to do divination…"
