Chapter 642 The Old Man
Uncle De looked at Fan Jiannan hesitantly and said, "Can I ask, is there anything you can do with this person?"

"It's not a big deal, but I was entrusted by someone to visit this expert or his descendants." Fan Jiannan said with a smile.

Uncle De frowned, apparently dissatisfied with Fan Jiannan's answer.But he thought for a while and nodded and said, "I know a little about this person. Speaking of which, this family also lives near Tianhou Temple, and has a little relationship with our family. So I know some old things that other people don't know. But this is not the place to talk."

Fan Jiannan nodded knowingly and said, "Then let's go to the teahouse opposite. I'm still very interested in these old news."

Uncle De nodded, and while calling his apprentices to look after the hexagram booth, he followed Fan Jiannan away.They went to an old tea restaurant with a reputation of more than 60 years. Fan Jiannan felt that there was nothing special on the first floor, and the small shop was a little old.Uncle De was a regular customer, and motioned them to go to the second floor, and went upstairs along the tiles covered with mosaics, and found that the second floor was much more lively.Only then did Fan Jiannan suddenly realize that the main dining area is on the second floor.

Although it was crowded and lively when we arrived, there were still vacancies in the elegant seats by the window.In addition, Uncle De is an old neighbor here, so he greeted the buddy, and a few of them sat down by the window.Originally, smoking was not allowed here, but the waiter seemed to know that Uncle De was addicted to smoking, so he just silently handed him an ashtray and didn't say anything else.

Uncle De didn't talk much, smoking a cigarette with a heavy face.His short frosty white hair was a little dazzling under the light.Fan Jiannan and Po Jun also sat with him, without speaking.Uncle De said slowly, "In Qimen, there are some things that outsiders don't know much about. If it's not necessary, I advise you two not to pursue it." After speaking, he made a gesture.The middle finger is slightly curved, and the rest of the fingers are spread out.Like some kind of salute gesture.

Fan Jiannan couldn't understand this gesture, but Po Jun did.Because he grew up in Chinatown, where there are many Cantonese people, he understands a lot of sign language in the old days.So Po Jun returned a gesture, clasped his palms together, and put his left hand on his shoulder.

Uncle De nodded after seeing it, "I can't tell that my little brother is still an insider. Then I won't go around in circles. The person you are talking about is my father-in-law."

"Elder-in-law?" Fan Jiannan frowned slightly. He had been in Hong Kong for a long time, and he basically spoke Cantonese fluently.He knew that "father-in-law" refers to grandpa in the address of Hong Kong people.

"So, you are the descendant of this strange man who knew the secret of Jinguanyusuo?" Fan Jiannan asked in surprise.

Uncle De smiled, "That's right, but Jin Guan Yu Suo Jue is traditionally passed on to men and not to women. So although I am a grandson, I have a different surname after all. I have only heard about these things. If you ask me this , I don’t know anything.”

"Then, does Uncle De know who else understands the Golden Pass and Jade Lock?" Fan Jiannan frowned.

"There is probably no one who knows. But my cousin may know something, after all, my uncle is the only son of my father-in-law." Uncle De pondered.

Po Jun nodded and said, "Can we find your cousin?"

Uncle De looked at him and said slowly, "It's not difficult to find him. However, I'm not sure if he can help you."

Fan Jiannan smiled and said, "In this case, please ask Uncle De to introduce us."

Uncle De sighed, "It's easy to say. But before that, I have to make one thing clear."

"Oh, what's the matter? Uncle De, please tell me." Fan Jiannan said.

"In front of real people, I won't tell lies. Those of us who read and tell fortunes are just ordinary people from the Jianghu, but there have always been mysteries in the strange family, and some people in the strange family have abilities that ordinary people can't imagine. I I want to know if the two of you are this kind of people." Uncle De looked at Fan Jiannan and Po Jun and said slowly.

"Uncle De is the magician?" Fan Jiannan frowned slightly.

"Sure enough. I should have thought that you are already a master of hexagrams at such a young age. In just over a year, not to mention being famous in Hong Kong and Kowloon, you are at least the best in Temple Street. Such a skill should not have been It's something an ordinary person can do. It was mentioned in the news last time that you bought that piece of land, so I should have thought of it." Uncle De sighed. "Alright, I'll just go with you. Go see my cousin."

"Your cousin, what's his name and where is he now?" Fan Jiannan frowned.He instinctively felt that although Uncle De was not a magician, he seemed to know about magicians.

Uncle De put out the cigarette butt and took a sip of the tea ceremony. "My cousin's name is Zheng Fa, and he is naturally in Temple Street. Where can he go now? Don't worry, he is not far away, and we will see him soon. After drinking this cup of tea, we Let's go there together. Anyway, this afternoon is considered a sneaky time, and I don't want to go back to the divination booth again."

Fan Jiannan glanced at Po Jun, and both of them felt that Uncle De's behavior seemed a little strange.But since they promised to take them to find someone, it's hard for them to refuse.Because this matter itself was asked by the two of them to Uncle De.So the two of them could only drink tea with Uncle De before leaving with the old man.

Uncle De took Fan Jiannan and Po Jun across a street, then took a detour, and came to a building.Uncle De pointed upstairs and said, "This is it."

Fan Jiannan looked up at the sign upstairs, frowned and said, "Is this a nursing home?"

"Yes, he has no children and is old, so he is here." Uncle De nodded and said, "I haven't seen him for a while, come up with me."

Fan Jiannan and Po Jun followed Uncle De and went up the stairs.This nursing home seems to be a bit old, and the facilities and the like are a bit outdated, but it is tidy and clean.Uncle De took them to the door of a room and knocked on the door.

"Come in." An old and vague voice came from inside.

Uncle De went in with them.Only then did Fan Jiannan and Po Jun see clearly what kind of old man they were looking for.Originally, when they heard Uncle De say that Zheng Fa was his cousin, they already thought that Zheng Fa must be older than Uncle De.But when they actually saw the person, they realized that this Zheng Fa was not as old as Uncle De at 01:30, at least ten years older than Uncle De.It seems to be more than 80.And there are some concerns about the person's health.

The old man's hair is almost completely bald, his face is wrinkled, and he looks like he has obvious aftereffects of stroke.He was sitting in a wheelchair, his mouth and eyes were a little crooked.It was only then that Fan Jiannan realized why his voice was a little muffled just now outside the door.However, Fan Jiannan still clasped his fists politely and said, "Hi Uncle Fa."

"Who are you...?" Zheng Fa raised his hand and pointed at them with difficulty.

"Brother Fa, these are some children. They are fellow practitioners in the art world. I heard that you are the last inheritor of the Jinguan Yusuojue, so I want to meet you." Uncle De said in a low voice.

"Fellows? The Zheng family has never had any comrades. I don't want to see them either...let them go!" the old man closed his eyes and said.

Fan Jiannan said helplessly, "Uncle Fa, don't get me wrong, we don't have any malicious intentions, we just want to visit you."

"Visiting? Haha... I don't know, what are your thoughts?" The old man said vaguely, "You Jiang Xiang faction has fought with our Zheng family for several lifetimes, how can I not know your thoughts? There is no malice, yes, How can I live if I have malicious intentions? Hey, now that I am old and there is no one in the Zheng family, you seem to have won, but in fact you lost. Because no one knows the golden pass jade lock formula anymore. When I die, That secret will be buried with me in the ground."

The old man's voice was vague, but desolate and determined.Fan Jiannan and Po Jun were slightly moved.It seems that they did not find the wrong person, this Zheng Fa is the last heir of the Zheng family.Moreover, their entire family has devoted several generations of efforts to protect the true shape map of the Five Sacred Mountains hidden in the earth's orifice.Fan Jiannan was suddenly moved.This lonely old man bears the weight of several generations on his thin shoulders.The Zheng family's practitioner finally persevered, even though he was already the last successor.

"We have nothing to do with Jiang Xiangpai, nor are we heretics." Fan Jiannan said in a slow voice.

Zheng Fa struggled to turn his head, not even bothering to look at him again.Uncle De said helplessly to Fan Jiannan, "My cousin is getting old. He had another stroke in recent years, his body was paralyzed, and his mind has been unclear. Maybe it really can't help you. I think it's still..."

"I am a Wushu man." Fan Jiannan said slowly, "The mountain doctor fortune-telling, I am a fortune-telling practitioner."

The old man lying in the wheelchair seemed to move slightly, but he still didn't look back.

"My name is Fan Jiannan. I'm the grandson of Crazy Fan. I think Uncle Fa must have heard of my grandfather." Fan Jiannan said slowly.

"Fan Jia Dunjia Master?" Zheng Fa slowly turned his head and said.

"Yes." Fan Jiannan took a deep breath and said, "I know that for the protection of the Five Sacred Mountains and the protection of your entire family for generations, you have paid too much and shouldered too much responsibility. Tell me Jinguan Yusuo Jue, I will help you take on this responsibility. I, Fan Jiannan, swear here that I will never let the Five Sacred Mountains Map fall into the hands of heretics. Now, it is time for you to be freed."

"Liberation, how is it possible to be liberated? The guardianship of generations, the persistence of generations. This is no longer a responsibility, but a certain kind of belief. Although we know that one day, the true shape of the Five Sacred Mountains will be rediscovered. In the hands of Xiangpai and heretic practitioners. The Five Sacred Mountains Map is not the property of a certain person, and it should not be something held by an individual." There seemed to be tears flickering in Zheng Fa's hazy eyes.
