The area around Yongfang Hall is an open place, a place where evil spirits are said to be in the market. Most people would not come for a stroll in the middle of the night when no one is around, but people like You Fang might. If someone accidentally saw him that night
With Zhang Liubing, he might also think that he has seen a ghost, and there will be one more ghost story about Yongfangtang, and two more ghosts.
Generally speaking, a place like this may be visited by practitioners of secret arts from time to time. You Fang and Zhang Liubing are definitely not the only ones who have refined their spiritual senses here over the years. There have also been more than one "ghost" troubles. Although the place is "good", it is not enough.
Secretly, You Fang doesn't plan to go there anymore, at least he won't practice alone in the middle of the night. It would be bad if he meets someone and causes trouble.
In modern society, on the surface, there seems to be no trace of traditional sects or esoteric families, but the heritage of their heritage cannot be underestimated. I heard that in Songhe Valley, where Xiang Zuohu is located, the Xiang family itself has various places suitable for practicing spiritual awareness.
, it is very convenient and hidden for Heiren to practice on weekdays. There is no need to go to places where you are likely to "bump into ghosts" like You Fang.
Zhang Xi's sect is not as good as the entire Xiang family in Songhe Valley, but it is much easier for his son to inherit the secret technique than ordinary people. No matter how good your understanding is, if you hadn't met Liu Li, I'm afraid he would still be confused and confused now.
It's hard to say whether he can get started. But You Fang also has his own heritage. If it weren't for the "influence" of Mojiayuan's Eight Gates since childhood, how could he be the young wanderer he is today?
The influence of environment on people is so important, this is Feng Shui in the world.
The last room of the house where You Fang lives has not been rented out, but the landlord Lin Yin no longer cares about it. The consumption in Guangzhou is not low, but for ordinary people, if they don’t have a mortgage, their children can go to school, etc.
One thousand seventeen a month is enough for one person to live on, not to mention that both You Fang and Tu Su paid one year's rent in one lump sum.
Lin Yin has devoted all his energy to the "career" of searching for Li Qiuping. He posted posts on the Internet to search for him, advertised dried tofu in the evening newspaper, and distributed leaflets with Li Qiuping's face in front of major shopping malls and supermarkets with a lot of people.
She also went to the middle school where she worked three years ago and where Li Qiuping donated money as an alumnus. She hoped that the school would mobilize the power of alumni from all walks of life to help find Li Qiuping.
Almost all her former colleagues looked at her strangely. To outsiders, this woman just relied on her youth and beauty and was not satisfied with her duties as a middle school teacher. She followed a rich man and was kept for three years.
That's enough, she's just an abandoned and resentful woman. The principal asked her politely: "Xiao Lin, in what capacity do you do this?" He declined her request very tactfully and clearly.
Yes, Lin Yin and Li Qiuping have no legal relationship. They are two unrelated people now. It is her own business to find someone in private. But under what identity and reason should she go to the school to seek help? The search for her former sponsor continues.
Do you want to support her? The school will never do such a favor. The principal's words are quite polite, but the comments and ridicules from other teachers are very unpleasant. You can't blame others for their lack of self-cultivation. Lin Yin asked for it.
Lin Yin was looked down upon and felt sad, but he did not give up. Several times, he even sent flyers to the door of Sun Yat-sen University. Seeing this, You Fang regretted that he should not have paid all the rent for a year. Lin Yin was so
Of course, finding someone requires money, and it accumulates a lot over time. The average monthly rent is not enough for her. What will she do if she runs out of money? No matter what you do, you should always have a plan for your life.
You Fang was not very concerned about this matter. He just told Lin Yin that no matter who claimed to have information about Li Qiuping, he must inform him first before contacting the other party. He also emphasized that this was specially confessed by Officer Xie. Lin Yin was very worried.
Obediently agreed.
Tu Su sympathized with Lin Yin's plight. One day after school, he saw Lin Yin handing out flyers outside the school gate. He took the initiative to help her hand out flyers. When he got home, it was already too late. He saw You Fang sitting in the restaurant waiting for her, which made him a little uncomfortable.
He said politely: "Brother You Fang, are you hungry? Today I saw Sister Lin Yin handing out leaflets at the school gate. She had such a big pile in her hand that I couldn't finish them even after dark, so I helped her hand them out, so
You're late. Don't worry, I'll cook right away."
What she said made You Fang think of You Fang as a kitten and puppy waiting to be fed. You Fang smiled and stood up to stop her: "How can I eat your food every day? You are very tired at this late hour. Let me treat you."
, go wash your face and hands quickly, we will go downstairs to eat."
Tu Su smiled and asked, "Are you going to the nightclub again?"
You Fang nodded: "Yes, it's a nightclub."
…
The nightclub they are talking about is not a place of sensual entertainment, but a food stall not far from the gate of the community. This is a small restaurant. Business is done in the store during the day, and a few tables are moved to the door after dark.
On the open space outside, with lights lit, it is a common food stall. It is cooler to sit here and eat.
Guangzhou is not too cold even in winter. You can see this kind of food stalls on some small streets all year round. On rainy days, just use a folding steel frame to set up a shed, which is very convenient. There are many in this city
People get off work very late or go to bed very late, and there are many people coming and going for late-night snacks. The food stalls on the street are free of charge, and there is business until late at night.
A food stall is opened near the living area. Most of the customers are nearby residents or migrant workers from surrounding units. They come to the food stall after the night shift or before going to bed. They can make a pot of rice wine when the weather is cold, or a bottle of ice-cold beer when the weather is hot. The side dishes to go with the wine include
Boiled peanuts, salted edamame, and for a little extravagance, you can order a plate of braised goose wings or two stir-fried dishes, which are also rare life enjoyments in a day.
Every day and night in this food stall, you can always see many familiar faces. They smile and nod and say hello to each other, but most of them can't say their names. Over time, regular customers describe this place as "every day and night," or "nightclub" for short.
”.
You Fang rarely goes there at night. If he doesn't have classes at Kangyuan Garden, he often goes to this food stall to eat at noon and has become very familiar with it. The food here is affordable, clean and refreshing, and the business has always been good. The restaurant owner
He is from Ningxia. His name is Song Yang. He is about thirty-five or six years old. He is a burly man with a green beard. He has a strong figure and a round waist, but is slightly overweight. Boss Song speaks in a loud and powerful voice, but has a very good temper.
, always smiling.
Opening a restaurant will always encounter some troubles. Occasionally, gangsters will come to cause trouble or refuse to pay for meals. This big man Song, who usually carries a gas tank in one hand as easily as he carries a chicken, has never done anything with anyone.
The landlady is about in her early thirties, she is petite and pretty, and her name is quite elegant, Feng Xianshi. But Feng Xianshi's temper is very different from that of her husband, she is quite fiery.
It doesn't sound too heavy when I'm young, and the voice is crisp and not hoarse, making it quite easy to mess with.
When acquaintances discussed it in private, they all felt that the contrast between the couple was too big. Boss Song was lucky to have a beautiful wife, but he was probably quite annoyed at home. A strong man could have such a bad temper. And You Fang's
But the feeling was different. When I met Boss Song for the first time, I found that the joints of the ten fingers of his hands were a little abnormal.
Although it is very subtle, if ordinary people have this kind of characteristic, it must be rheumatism-like symptoms, and these hands cannot do heavy work at all. The boss of Song Dynasty, Kong Wuli, seems to have endless exertion, which can only mean one thing,
He has practiced the Northern Style Iron Sand Palm.
This is a kind of hard external Kung Fu that is quite difficult to get started, but extremely lethal after being mastered. When the external Kung Fu reaches advanced levels, there are also internal methods of refining it, and Boss Song has no other abnormality except for the slightly distinctive finger joints.
Being aware of it shows that his external Kung Fu has reached the point where the essence is restrained. Even if he has not crossed the threshold of the internal Kung Fu of "responding to every touch and acting according to his feelings", he is still not far behind. He is definitely a master.
Then, it is not difficult to understand Boss Song’s good temper. Whether it is taught by a master or a disciple practices hard skills from outsiders, there are three basic conditions: first, a good physique and strong bones, second, a perseverant personality and the ability to endure hardships, and third, the ability to
Cultivate a good temper. Although the third condition has little to do with practicing Qigong, it is the most important to the practitioner himself. This kind of cultivation does not necessarily lie in cultural level, but a kind of tolerance and openness.
If you are a narrow-minded person who likes to make trouble, you teach him the advanced and hard skills that can kill someone with one slap, unless you have a grudge, want to harm him or others, and also cause trouble for yourself. In the past, disciples caused trouble outside.
When casualties occur, the master's family is often implicated, and of course their family members are also implicated.
The so-called "martial arts" in the tradition is not an abstract, nice-sounding and empty thing, but a very practical cultivation for martial arts practitioners that is needed in daily life. Martial arts is only for self-defense at critical moments, and when necessary
It only works during the day and cannot be used to treat qi in daily life.
You Fang's poisonous eyes saw Boss Song's "industry", but he did not reveal it. Iron sand palms cannot be used as food, and one has to make a living if he possesses special skills. He himself does not want to say it, and others who reveal it are committing crimes.
It's taboo. But You Fang likes to eat at this food stall. It's quite interesting to see Boss Song and think of himself hiding in the world.
…
During the period since they started living together, Tu Su came home late several times, so You Fang invited her out to eat. At first, the little girl was very embarrassed, but You Fang persuaded her with a smile: "After all, I have a job and income, and I still have a job."
Why are you so embarrassed that I'm eating like a student of yours every day? It's not a very expensive hotel, it's just a nightclub outside the community, it's all good at no cost."
Tu Su was surprised: "Nightclub?"
You Fang laughed happily: "It's not that kind of nightclub. You'll know if you come with me."
When Tu Su arrived at the place, she realized that the so-called nightclub was this street food stall. Later, You Fang invited her twice more. When she mentioned going out to eat today, Tu Su immediately smiled and asked if it was a "nightclub." The weather was a bit sultry, so the two of them came
I didn't go into the food stall, so I sat down at a table outside and felt cool and comfortable in the evening breeze. Eating here is also a kind of leisure in itself.
While eating, they talked about helping Lin Yin distribute flyers today. You Fang said tentatively: "Tu Su, you are not really helping her today. In fact, for Lin Yin, you should persuade her to pass on the remaining flyers."
It’s better to take it back and send it out the next day.”
"Why?" Tu Su blinked, his long eyelashes were very cute.
You Fang began to calculate the accounts for her, how much it would cost to print an A4 leaflet with a photo, how much it would cost to place a small missing person advertisement in the evening newspaper, and how much Lin Yin would need to maintain the simplest life by herself. Finally, he said: "She
One month's rent income is not enough for expenses. When all the money is spent, she will be in trouble. She only focused on looking for Li Qiuping, but forgot how to plan her own life."
Tu Su also showed a sad face when he heard this: "I really haven't thought about this. I just feel that Sister Lin Yin is very pitiful. I want to help her but don't know how to help her. But now it is impossible to persuade her not to find someone. You
Brother Fang, do you have any good ideas?"
You Fang: "I just want to ask you for a favor. If I have the opportunity to persuade Lin Yin, it's not to persuade her not to find someone, but to persuade her to plan things well and persist in the search. You can say this to her, if the second
It takes six months to find someone, but what if we are at the end of our rope in the fifth month? She should be able to listen."
Tu Su: "Brother You Fang made it so clear, why don't you go by yourself?"
You Fang smiled: "I, a young man, went to find a single woman to discuss things about living at home. There are many things that are inconvenient to talk about and can easily cause misunderstandings. It's different for you. For such a cute little sister, I treat her like an older sister.
Let’s chat.”
Tu Su nodded repeatedly: "What you said makes sense, I will go talk to Sister Lin Yin in the next few days." Then he frowned and said: "We have paid the rent for a year, does Sister Lin Yin still have a house?
Rent it out. I'll discuss with her whether we can change the rent to be paid monthly, so that even if she can't control it, she can still have a minimum living security every month."
You Fang praised: "You are more thoughtful than me, just give it a try... Hurry up and eat, the food is already cold."
You Fang knew very well that he could not stop Lin Yin from looking for the mad fox now, so he asked Tu Su to persuade her. He just hoped that while Lin Yin was searching, he could plan his life in the days without the mad fox and gradually return to normal from his paranoia.
, as long as she achieves this step, the process of finding the mad fox is the process of finding herself again.
If Lin Yin wants to truly find herself, it has nothing to do with whether she wants to find Kuanghu. Either she can truly free herself from the current state, or another person will appear in her life to replace Kuanghu. The first situation
Of course it's good, but even better is that both situations happen. As for You Fang, he has no interest in becoming that "other person".
Just when I thought of this, I heard Tu Su say: "Brother You Fang really cares about people. He knows how to help someone if he wants to. I also think that the person Sister Lin Yin is looking for cannot be found. Everyone else knows very well.
It's just that she doesn't want to understand. In fact, the best destination for Sister Lin Yin is to meet a good man like Brother You Fang who can really treat her well."
This little girl is quite smart. The more things she experiences, the more she understands. You Fang was swallowing a mouthful of food and almost choked when he heard the words. He took a sip of water before replying: "I hope I won't be like Li Qiuping anymore."
Man, wish her good luck! ...Don't send me good guy cards, I'm most afraid of this."
Tu Su said playfully: "I didn't say you were a good person, I only said you were a good man who cares about others. Aren't you a man?"
You Fang had no temper at all and nodded: "Yes, of course!" As he spoke, his eyes slipped from her pretty face and glanced at the soft curves under the shirt on her chest. This girl is well developed, so tempting!
Although his eyes quickly left and he cursed himself as a rogue in his heart, he still had some thoughts.
On the way back after dinner, the evening breeze blew Tu Su's hair, and he could vaguely smell the quiet aura of a girl emanating from her body. You Fang felt a little itchy in his heart for no reason, and even his body's reaction was a little pretentious. Alas, let's go practice.
Sword! Why do you train so hard every day in the military camp? In addition to preparing for war, isn't it just to keep a bunch of big men from thinking nonsense?
…
With the experience in front of Yongfang Hall, You Fang understood firsthand why Liu Li made the following requirements for the sword training place in the secret book - four high walls, no ghosts or gods can see through it.
Such places are rare in Guangzhou, but as long as you are careful, you can always find it. You Fang found an agricultural machinery factory in a remote place on the outskirts of the city. The factory stopped production a long time ago, but the factory building has been left here.
It has not been dealt with. The factory owner has already planned to become the best nail farmer when the urban development expands to this area. Unfortunately, the planning of the Guangzhou Municipal Government in recent years has not covered this remote place, and the factory owner has not yet made plans.
to avoid fierce confrontations over demolition.
An old man was hired in the reception room at the front door of the factory. He symbolically looked at the empty factory building, with no windows left. However, there was no one in the backyard far away from the front door through the factory building, not even a big wolf dog. The yard was very large.
The site is very flat, and the courtyard wall is very high, with broken glass stuck in the top and a barbed wire that is almost rotten due to rust.
This is a place that meets the requirements. The earth atmosphere is not bad, but the evil spirit is a bit strong. After all, no one has been active for several years, but it is suitable for You Fang to practice swordsmanship.
You Fang has been sneaking into the backyard of this agricultural machinery factory for several days. He has cleaned up the piles of junk and debris, pulled out weeds and leveled the site. He also moved a small table, a leisure chair, and propped up a large leisure sun.
The umbrella is the same as the one seen on the platform in front of Baiyun Villa. You can take a rest when you are tired, and you are not afraid of getting wet on rainy days. You are well prepared.
Last time, Qin Yu almost couldn't control his evil aura. When he came back to his senses, You Fang also understood that he had never exerted the true power of this precious blade before. Only after his spiritual awareness transformed into divine consciousness could he fully activate this sword.
Although the physical properties of the sword are too strong, Qin Yu's evil spirit accumulated over hundreds of years is too heavy, and You Fang is like a three-year-old child turning a heavy hammer, which is very difficult to control.
This shows that his spiritual consciousness is not strong enough, and it is far from enough to give Qin Yu a new spirituality through sword training. Sword training is the process of training the wandering spiritual consciousness, and at the same time, it also continues to cultivate Qin Yu's spirituality, man and sword.
Practice together.
On the night after having dinner with Tu Su at the "nightclub", You Fang rushed to the place where he practiced swordsmanship, took out Qin Yu, rubbed it in his hands, and said to himself: "Qin Yu, Qin Yu, from now on, this is the place.
