After chatting with Old Man Ouyang for a while, Zhang Fan went to the communications company to refill a mobile phone card, and then he and Huang Qingyun returned to their respective residences.
Early on the morning of the second day, Zhang Fan, Xiao Chong, Duan Linlin, and Xiao Ning set out on their way to Pinghuang County again. For the past two days, Xiao Ning has been staying at Duan Linlin's house. Under the protection of Mr. Duan, there was no danger.
In Xiao Ning's case, however, Xiao Ning's appearance did not change much.
After the four arrived in Pinghuang County, they went directly to Dongxing Village and told the people of the Zhuang tribe in Dongxing Village about the investigation of the case. They were all very grateful to Zhang Fan and invited Zhang Fan and the others to have a meal together at noon.
In the afternoon, Zhang Fan and others went to the Miao tribe in Dongxing Village and told the Miao tribe members about the investigation of the case.
In addition, Zhang Fan also told Wu Jun, the leader of the Miao tribe, his thoughts. In order to completely put the tribe out of danger, Wu Jun decided to set off to visit the forbidden area of Dageng Village in the next few days.
In the evening, Zhang Fan and others had dinner and stayed at the Miao tribe. It was not until early the next morning that they left, returned to the county town, and found a hotel suite to stay.
After a few people settled in, they sat in the living room and drank tea. Xiao Chong asked: "Mr. Zhang, is the thing you want to do in the county?"
Zhang Fan took a few people to settle down in the county town, and Xiao Chong naturally thought of this place.
"It's not in the county seat, it's in Qingluan Village, Qingluan Town." Zhang Fan replied, "It's 50 miles away from here, and the drive takes about 40 minutes."
"Then where we live is a bit far from Qingluan Village. It takes about two hours to go back and forth. If there is something urgent while we are doing things, we may be delayed on the way." Xiao Chong said.
.
"If we go to do business, naturally we won't live here, we will live in the town." Zhang Fan said with a smile, "We can't go there for the time being. I need to practice to the fourth level of the second realm before I can go there.
The natural scenery in Pinghuang County is good, and I heard that there are many scenic spots around it. The reason why we settled here is that you can take advantage of this time to have fun here. If I didn't practice, I would go with you.
"
"Then let's take this opportunity to have some fun." Xiao Chong said with a smile, "First I got a promotion and a salary increase, and now I can travel again. It's really good!"
Xiao Chong looked satisfied.
"It's indeed good." Duan Linlin smiled.
Xiao Ning also nodded.
"You guys check out the guide on where to go. I'm going back to my room to practice. Let's go out and have some fun in the afternoon." Zhang Fan said to a few people.
Several people nodded slightly.
Afterwards, Zhang Fan returned to the room to practice. Zhang Fan had already touched the bottle realm in the fourth stage of the second realm. The reason why he continued to practice was to become more familiar with this bottleneck situation and accumulate more strength, etc.
When the opportunity comes, it will be easier to break through.
Soon it was noon, and Xiao Chong and others asked Zhang Fan to leave the hotel together to eat local specialties.
"Mr. Zhang, we looked at all the scenic spots around Pinghuang County on the Internet. Judging from the reviews, Niujiangshan Scenic Area should be the best. It has caves, ancient streets, and multiple sightseeing cable cars.
If you have time in the afternoon
, we can go there together." Xiao Chong said.
"Okay, let's go to this scenic spot in the afternoon." Zhang Fan said.
Zhang Fan has been practicing all morning, and his body is very saturated. There is no use in continuing to practice in the afternoon. He might as well change his mind. Who knows what opportunities he will encounter when he goes out this time.
"This fried bug looks disgusting, but it tastes really good." Zhang Fan added a bug on the plate and said. People in this area have a special liking for food like bugs.
"It's rich in protein," Xiao Chong said. As Xiao Chong spoke, he also picked up a chopstick.
Duan Linlin and Xiao Ning never ate.
Just when several people were about to finish the meal, a middle-aged man in his 50s, wearing a Tang suit, sunglasses, slicked back hair, and holding a rosary in his hand, entered the hotel and held a rosary in his hand.
He also held a big flag with the word "reading fortune" written on it.
"Mr. Zhang, your colleague." Xiao Chong pointed at the middle-aged man in Tang suit.
Zhang Fan glanced at the middle-aged man in Tang suit.
At this moment, the slightly fat and cheerful-looking restaurant owner came to the middle-aged man in Tang suit and said, "Sir, there is an empty seat here, do you think it is okay? If not, there are still empty seats on the second floor."
"I'll just sit here." The middle-aged man in Tang suit replied, then stood down and leaned the big flag in his hand against a pillar nearby.
"Here's the menu. Take a look at what you want to eat first. There's a bill over there. I'm going to take care of you. I'm sorry." The restaurant owner said apologetically.
"You go first." The middle-aged man from Tang Dynasty waved his hand, and the restaurant owner quickly ran over.
The middle-aged man from the Tang Dynasty just glanced at the menu, then put it aside and looked around.
Not long after, the restaurant owner returned to the middle-aged man in Tang suit.
"Sir, have you decided what you want to eat?" the restaurant owner asked with a smile.
"I think this set meal is good. Give me a piece of this set meal." The middle-aged man from the Tang Dynasty pointed to the 500 yuan set meal on the menu and said.
"There must be a lot of people dining, right? The table you are sitting on is too small. You can go to the private room on the second floor." The restaurant owner said.
"There is no one else. I am the only one dining. I would like to dine in the hall. This place can better reflect the fireworks of the world and is more conducive to my cultivation." The middle-aged man of the Tang Dynasty behaved like a master.
Zhang Fan and Xiao Chong, who were eating not far away, looked at each other and smiled after hearing this. This was the first time they heard that eating in a crowded place is helpful for cultivation.
"This is an old liar." Xiao Chong said with a smile.
"Yes, I think so." Duan Linlin nodded, "I don't feel the slightest hint of divination from him."
"Then... well, since you want to be here, then let's stay here." The restaurant owner said, and as he said that, he placed the menu on his tablet.
"Little brother, business has been good recently!" the middle-aged man in Tang suit said a little abruptly.
"It's okay." The restaurant owner smiled.
"However, the business of your restaurant was not very good some time ago, right?" the middle-aged man in Tang suit continued to ask.
Hearing the words of the middle-aged man from Tang Dynasty, the restaurant owner was startled, "How do you know?"
The middle-aged man in Tang suit puffed out his chest with confidence, "I can tell just this by looking at your face."
Then, the middle-aged man from the Tang Dynasty took off his glasses and dusted off the pleats on his trousers.
