I live in Dayu Changsheng

Chapter 149, Chess pieces

On the outskirts of Nanzhuo County, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, surrounded by streams, and there are three thatched huts. This is Guan Zhi's House.

The moss marks are green, the grass is green, the scenery is elegant, and the expenses are quite simple.

"This is too shabby, I'll change brother Guan to a better place tomorrow!" Lu Fei snorted.

"Lu Di, it's not necessary."

Guan Zhi caressed his beard and said: "This is a humble room, but you can be pure-hearted. There is a volume of military books in your family, and you can't put it down in your hands. That's enough."

It was probably fate, this way, Guan Zhi and Lu Fei were already called by the elder brother and the younger brother.

"If the mountain is not high, it will be famous if there are immortals; if the water is not deep, there will be dragons. There is a severe drought this year, but the scenery around your residence has not diminished. This is called outstanding people!"

Fang Rui entered the door as he spoke, and diagnosed a white-haired old woman, Guan Zhi's mother. Suddenly, he winked and told Guan Zhi to go out.

"I have three methods, upper, middle and lower, which can cure your mother."

"Oh?!"

Even though Guan Zhi was always happy and angry, he was faintly excited when he heard the words: "Master, Zhi would like to hear the details!"

Simultaneously.

He also secretly sighed in his heart: "The Taoist priest is indeed a genius doctor. It's not like I haven't invited other doctors, but all of them can't be cured." '

"Those who follow the law, cure the disease, and cure the disease when the medicine arrives; those who practice the law, strengthen the foundation and cultivate the vitality, nourish the body and prolong the life; do you practice the law?"

Fang Rui shook his sleeve robe, and said with a proud smile, "I have great supernatural powers, and I can keep your mother safe from illness and disaster until the end of her lifespan..."

"Engong is really unhappy, so what's the point, of course the method is used!" Lu Fei said with a very clever look.

"Brother Lu, since Taoist priests divide the three methods into upper, middle and lower, there is a reason for it. Presumably, the price of each method is different."

Guan Zhi understood, and looked at Fang Rui solemnly: "Master Daoist, what do I have to pay for each of the three methods?"

"For those who follow the law, one dose of medicine is enough, and there is no price. If you take this method, you should only form a good relationship."

"For those who want to win the law, I have to do my best, and with all kinds of rare materials and precious medicines, the price is not small. If you take this method, you owe me a favor."

"Do you want to go to law?"

Fang Rui looked directly into Guan Zhi's eyes: "This method is also very expensive for me. If you follow the method, you must be loyal to me."

It's that direct!

It's not like he's abusing a good person, not reciprocating his kindness, or he is concerned about face, waiting for the other party to take the initiative to worship the Lord.

That's not Fang Rui's style.

Of course, he doesn't bother to use indiscriminate methods to dig holes for others, and he made it clear in advance that he pays attention to what you like and what you want.

"Engong, how could you do this act of taking advantage of the fire, it's too..."

Lu Fei spoke bluntly, humming.

"Ludi!"

Guan Zhi interrupted Lu Fei: "The Taoist priest is more generous than me, and he speaks clearly, how can it be regarded as taking advantage of the fire?"

He thought for a while, then looked at Fang Rui: "If you are loyal to the Taoist priest, can you refuse something that violates your conscience?"

"Haha, Guan Zhi, you are a loyal person, I will not make things difficult for you."

"Since that's the case... governing elections will be governed by law."

"good!"

Fang Rui nodded slightly and stepped inside.

Guan Zhi and Lu Fei looked at each other and followed them into the door.

Immediately, I saw:

"disease!"

Fang Rui shouted, activated the supernatural power 'Deadwood Changchun', blue brilliance surged in the palm of his hand, and just the escaping breath revived a withered yellow flower in front of the window.

"This is?!"

Both Guan Zhi and Lu Fei are warriors, with keen perception, they can clearly feel: the huge attraction of that blue energy to themselves, knowing that this must be an extremely precious thing.

After a while.

Guan Mu's ashen face turned rosy, her breath was steady, long and powerful.

Even if Guan Zhi and Lu Fei are laymen, they can see that Guan's mother has recovered.

Fang Rui staggered, looking pale, and was supported by Guan Zhi.

——The supernatural power 'Deadwood Changchun' only consumes luck points, so naturally it won't affect him.

However, if the performance is really calm and there is no loss at all, Guan Zhi and Lu Fei will have a subconscious feeling of being deceived. In reality, some small well-intentioned routines can often reduce many unnecessary troubles.

"Taoist?!" Guan Zhi really looked concerned.

"Go, go out and talk."

"Are you okay? Also, my mother..."

"I'm fine, your mother, and I'm fine. When I wake up, I can probably get out of bed and walk."

Fang Rui smiled.

"Is that so?"

Guan Zhi let out a long breath, and suddenly knelt down on one knee, clasping his fists heavily: "Zhi pays homage to the lord."

"Hahaha, Dashan!"

A flash of inspiration flashed in Fang Rui's hand, and Yuan Da's treasured sword appeared again: "The treasured sword is for heroes, and this sword is for you."

"This……"

"Since you call me your lord, how can you not have a greeting ceremony? That's it." Fang Rui laughed.

Only then did Guan Zhi accept it.

"Mine? Benefactor... No, my lord!" Lu Fei watched with greedy eyes.

"Would you like to call me Lord too?"

"Why don't you want to? I want to be with Brother Guan, besides, you have been kind to me..."

"not regret?"

"not regret!"

"Okay, go back and prepare the materials, and I'll forge a handle for you later."

Fang Rui looked at Lu Fei happily taking a step ahead, and with a flash of inspiration in his hand, he took out gold and silver and presented them to Guan Zhi: "There is no need to refuse, the general will not send hungry soldiers, so I will reward you first."

"Besides, even if you don't use it, your mother doesn't need it? Take it and give your mother something good!"

"Treasure the person in front of you, don't wait for your child to support you when your relative is not there!"

"Lord!"

Even though Guan Zhi is not a person with obvious emotions, at this moment, his eyes are slightly red.

First healed his mother's illness, then gifted divine soldiers, and then gave gold and silver. He could only die in return for such a generous treatment!

——It can be said that: report to the king on the golden stage, and support the jade dragon to die for the king!

"Master, do you have any orders?" Guan Zhi couldn't wait to do something for Fang Rui.

"It just so happens that there is really one thing, I want you...so so, so so..."

……

The next day.

Nanzhuo County, Baiweilou.

Fang Rui was still dressed as a middle-aged Taoist, drinking and eating meat, and was not in a hurry.

There is an extraordinary temperament in his body, and when ordinary people see it, they will subconsciously feel ashamed, so although there are many guests in the restaurant, he is the only one who is alone at a table and no one is disturbed.

After eating, he ordered another jug ​​of good wine, closed his eyes and waited.

After tea time.

When Fang Rui suddenly opened his eyes.

At the door, a figure appeared, it was Cao Meng. He glanced around, and seemed to have spotted Fang Rui, and sat down to share the table familiarly.

"Daozhang, what a coincidence, we meet again!"

"Yes!"

Fang Rui smiled and took a deep look at the other party.

He left a deep impression on Cao Meng yesterday. The other party is a local snake, so he will definitely investigate him in detail. If his guess is right, Cao Meng deliberately found him.

It just so happened that Jiang Taigong was fishing, and those who wished to take the bait, he also made a divination in advance, and he was here to wait for Cao Meng.

At this glance, Cao Meng only felt as if he was seen through, and all his little thoughts could not be hidden. He couldn't help but trembled, and hurriedly picked up the wine pot to cover up: "I heard that the Taoist priest calls himself 'Tianji', and he is the best at divination." Hexagram, I wonder if you can make a divination for me?"

"Pindao three hexagrams a day, without exception, today's three hexagrams are over."

Fang Rui said, when Cao Meng showed disappointment, he changed the topic again: "However, Officer Cao is very human, and Pindao would like to make an exception today."

"Oh? Then thank you, Daoist."

Cao Meng looked forward to coming.

'Sure enough, I don't cherish what I get easily. I only use words to turn around and raise the other party's expectations. '

Fang Rui had seen Cao Meng a long time ago, so he was naturally confident. At this time, he put on a show and made a tactic, saying nothing surprising: "I see Cao Meng as a hero, and the life of a king!"

Rumble!
It was also a coincidence that at this time, there was a thunderous explosion outside the window.

Snapped!
Cao Meng's expression changed drastically, and he dropped the chopsticks in his hand, but he reacted very quickly, and quickly picked them up to cover up: "I'm timid, this thunder is too scary!"

He smiled dryly, glanced around, and found that the people around him didn't hear him, and he didn't seem to be able to hear the conversation between the two of them.

"Don't worry, Officer Cao, I have sealed off the three-foot area. These words come out of my mouth and into your ears, and no third person will know."

Fang Rui smiled, and continued: "Besides, Cao Guanren's strength should be mid-level, fifth-level dark energy!"

This strength is far from nothing to him, but in such a county, he is already considered an absolute strongman!
Cao Meng flicked his wrist again.

The strength he showed to the outside world was rank six, his true realm, even his parents didn't know about it, but he never thought that Fang Rui could see through it at a glance.

"What's more... Mr. Cao must be facing difficulties and difficulties." Fang Rui finally said.

"Is the Taoist priest a god?!" Cao Meng lost his voice in shock.

Although his father was a county lieutenant, he was oppressed by the county's superiors and pushed aside by the big family, and was about to be sent to take over the drudgery of suppressing bandits...

He was hit by Fang Rui's words again!

At this time, Cao Meng Fang Rui's senses were to look up at the mountains, and at the same time, he felt uneasy about being completely seen through, and suspicion and fear abounded in his heart.

Fang Rui keenly captured such emotions: "Sure enough, he has the temperament of Jiaolong, a virtuous corporal, but he also has a suspicious side. '

If Cao Meng's subordinates, he behaved so cleverly, it would be the way of death, just like Yang Xiu.

But, unfortunately, he is not, is not now, and will not be in the future.

Cao Meng suppressed the fear in his heart, and with the same smile on his face, he asked sincerely, "I don't know how to solve this situation, can the Taoist priest teach me?"

"Pindao said just now that Cao Guanren has the life of a king, and he will be auspicious if he dies."

Fang Rui had an inscrutable look on his face: "If my predictions are correct, under Cao Guanren's command, there must be good ministers who will vote in the near future!"

"Oh?!"

Cao Meng was dubious.

"I said yes, so there is. Those who are self-improving will be helped by God! Those who are not helped by God will be helped!"

Fang Rui reached out and took out a dragon-shaped jade pendant from his bosom, in which a strand of chaotic dragon balls turned into dragon-shaped lights and shadows.

"Good baby!"

Cao Meng's eyes widened, and he felt that this jade pendant was full of attraction to him, to that extent, it was even better than the knife he saw yesterday.

"This jade pendant is given to Officer Cao."

"This……"

Cao Meng inexplicably felt a little inappropriate, thought for a while and said, "How can the Taoist priest spend money? I would like to give a thousand gold to buy this jade pendant."

"This jade pendant is only for gift and not for sale." Fang Rui shook his head.

A joke, if Cao Meng really bought it, wouldn't it be a cause and effect?He lost a lot in this investment.

"Do you want Officer Cao? No, forget it!" Fang Rui tried to withdraw.

"want!"

Cao Meng gritted his teeth and snatched the jade pendant: "The Taoist priest promises a thousand pieces of gold, how can he take back the promised gift?!"

"Um?!"

Fang Rui activated the supernatural power 'Tianzi Wangqi' while drinking, and looked at Cao Meng.

The origin of the chaotic dragon ball in the dragon-shaped jade pendant turned into golden light and sank into the center of Cao Meng's eyebrows. As his luck manifested, his foreign luck suddenly rose and burned blazingly. A cage transformed by black energy.

"what!"

Cao Meng drank a bowl of wine, let out a long breath, and felt extremely happy in his heart, as if doing anything at this time would be all right.

It can be said: the world is the same in time and time!
"The potential dragon is in the abyss, the dragon is in the field, and the flying dragon is in the sky. Cao Meng's dragon luck has been fully activated by me, and the big event is over!" '

Fang Rui's heart skipped a beat: "Congratulations to Mr. Cao, I've said that you will vote for a good minister, and you will see the result in three days. If you go to suppress the bandits, you will surely win the battle and succeed in no time."

"Then borrow a long auspicious word."

There was a look of anticipation in Cao Meng's eyes: "I have benefited a lot from talking with the Taoist priest. Why don't the Taoist priest come to my house, we will have a long talk all night, and sleep on our feet..."

'Good guy, you have the surname Cao, how did you get the script with the surname Liu? '

Fang Rui slandered in his heart, smiled without saying a word.

Although Cao Meng is a flood dragon in Yuanzhou, this small temple cannot accommodate his big Buddha.

Furthermore, as a chess player, it is a big taboo to end the game in person and stand in the center of the crowd's attention.

Seeing Fang Rui's refusal, Cao Meng felt very regretful in his heart: "It's a pity that such an expert can't be used by me!" '

'But that's right, it's really inappropriate to raise it hastily today. I'll prepare a generous gift in the future, come to the door in person, and take care of it again and again. '

'If it still doesn't work, then...'

Cao Meng's eyes flashed, he pulled Fang Rui's wrist cordially, and said generously: "If I, Cao Meng, can achieve something in the future, I will never forget the kindness of today, no matter how rich or noble I am, I will never forget each other, and I will drink with you..."

'Hey guy, is there another sentence, no mercy with a white knife?This is starting to paint a big cake for me?As expected of a dragon's temperament! '

'But I'm not your subordinate. To be honest, I'm... an angel investor. '

As we all know, angel investors are never angels, but wolves who want to eat meat.

'Today's investment, regardless of whether it will return ten times in the future or exert influence at critical moments, is a big profit. '

Fang Rui's eyes were deep and indifferent, looking at Cao Meng like a chess player overlooking the chess pieces.

"Taoist..." Cao Meng had something else to say.

Fang Rui waved his sleeves, and he was already floating up: "Today we can see the wind blowing at the end of Qingping, so happy! So happy!"

Amidst the long laughter, there was a blue light, and there was no one in the original place.

……

Leave from Baiweilou.

Returning, Cao Meng did not go home, but came to a nearby yard.

"Teacher, I met a strange person today..."

From Cao Meng's mouth, Fang Rui's praise was undisguised, and he regretted that such talents were not included under his command.

The "teacher" in his mouth is named Ji Fu, and he is a erudite and talented man.

"This……"

Hearing what Cao Meng said, Ji Fu's heart was sour, and he felt a sense of déjà vu.

a moment.

He suddenly understood: Isn't what this Taoist Tianji did was a copy of what he did?
First make a name for yourself, then meet by chance, and get to know Jiaolong...

'It's just that this person did a better job without leaving a trace.It's really scary to pretend to be better than me! '

Ji Fu's eyes flickered.

"Teacher, what's wrong?"

Cao Meng saw that some Ji Fu's intentions were to invest in himself, but he was a little self-conscious and picky.

Therefore, he deliberately used Fang Rui to provoke Ji Fu to form a competition, which brought tension to the opponent, so that Ji Fu paid more attention to himself.

Wait for Cao Meng to leave.

'Cao Meng, a student, is getting more and more thoughtful!However, it is still in control, and it is not a big problem. '

'The only thing to watch out for is...'

Ji Fu frowned and thought: "Which organization is that Taoist Tianji?"Isn't the big pie in Yuanzhou already determined by all parties?It's so ugly to eat! '

……

"Interesting, the county captain's son Cao Meng, Jiaolong; neighbor Ji Fu, teacher!"

Fang Rui hid himself in mid-air, looked at Cao Meng who was leaving, and then glanced at Ji Fu: "This Cao Meng and Ji Fu are so similar to Li Xuantong and Zhen Yi back then."

"So, this round, is the mantis catching the cicada, and the oriole is behind?"

"No!"

Fang Rui looked down on Ji Fu, just like watching Cao Meng, and he was indifferent from above: "In the three prefectures of Yuan, Liang, and Rao, except for the Dayu court, all of you are concubines... No, piece!"
