"Haha, we just did a small thing, how can we deserve the praise from Boss Xiaofang."
Both father and son were simple hunters in the mountains. They were chewing elbows, but they felt embarrassed when Fang Chang praised them like this.
Suddenly the mood became low again.
"It's a pity that Boss Dafang, our father and son didn't even see him for the last time."
Fang Chang replied: "My father died with a smile on his face. You two don't have to do this. If my father's spirit in heaven sees him, he will definitely feel uneasy."
The two father and son were relieved, and then gnawed on another elbow.
After having enough wine and food.
The middle-aged Orion's eyes were a little dazed, but he still maintained his sobriety. He looked around a few times and saw that Lao Zhangtou and Zhu Gui had gone to the kitchen to eat.
He came closer to Fang Chang and asked in a low voice:
"Boss Xiaofang, I wonder if Boss Dafang has told you about Zizhu?"
Fang Chang made a pause, and then asked slowly and calmly:
"What does Uncle Li want to say?"
The middle-aged Orion said: "Xiaojun and I were hunting in the mountains a few days ago and saw a few purple bamboo trees in the distance.
Boss Dafang told us before that if we find Zizhu, we should tell him immediately.
But now that Boss Dafang is gone, Boss Xiaofang, do you still want Zizhu?"
When Fang Chang heard this, his little brain started to work immediately.
Father Fang asked Orion and his son to give him bamboos because these bamboos contain spiritual energy and are the materials for him to make paper puppets.
So it goes without saying what the nature of Zizhu, who received special attention from Father Fang, is.
Nine times out of ten, this is the real spiritual bamboo!
But just in case, Fang Chang still asked:
"Since Uncle Li saw it, why didn't he cut down those purple bamboos and bring them over?"
Unexpectedly, the middle-aged Orion immediately showed a guilty expression and said:
"Boss Xiao Fang, you don't know that the purple bamboo is very evil and especially attracts snakes. There are countless venomous snakes hiding under the bamboo.
Don't say it's me, even if the wild boar runs in, it won't take long to turn into a skeleton.
If Boss Dafang hadn't specifically mentioned it to us before, we would have stayed away from it if we had seen it, let alone in the past.
Previously, I was chasing a prey and ran into a small purple bamboo forest, and was almost bitten by a poisonous snake. Boss Dafang saved me and chopped all the bamboos away.
Otherwise, when the bamboos grow more and more, our way into the mountains for hunting will be cut off.
I used to think that Zizhu was chopped down by Boss Dafang.
I didn’t expect that in just a few years, the deadly purple bamboo would grow again.”
Fang Chang thought for a while, if he didn't accept the spiritual bamboo that was delivered to his door, wouldn't he be sorry for the opportunity that God had arranged for him.
And if there is a real spiritual bamboo, and combined with the elementary talisman paper, maybe he can refine Little Vajra No. 2.
Even if you can't refine Little King Kong II, you can at least get rid of the restrictions of one-time puppets and refine the genuine basic Five Elements Puppet.
But the middle-aged Orion said it was so dangerous, he couldn't be careless.
With a thought in his mind, he said to the middle-aged Orion:
"Uncle Li, I don't mean to blame you. I just didn't know what Zizhu was. But when I heard your detailed description, I remembered that my father seemed to have mentioned it to me a few times before.
But what he was talking about at that time was not Zizhu, but Snake Bamboo.
That's why I didn't think about it for a while.
I won't hide it from you. This purple bamboo is of great use to me, so I have to ask you to guide me when the time comes.
Well - that's great. You and Brother Li will rest at my house today, and I will go back with you tomorrow to solve the Zizhu matter.
In addition, I can’t take advantage of you for the bamboo you brought this time. How much money my father gave you before, I will double it now.”
The middle-aged Orion looked panicked: "How can this happen? Boss Dafang gave me enough. I didn't want it in the first place, but Boss Dafang had to give it so I had to accept it.
If I ask for more now, wouldn't I be called an ungrateful villain?
Boss Xiaofang, if you think highly of me, just let Boss Dafang do it."
Fang Chang was quite domineering at this time, he said:
"Uncle Li, my father is my father, and I am me.
My father is kind to you, but I am not kind to you. I am satisfied that I can inherit some of my father's legacy, so how can I let you treat me and my father equally?
Just accept this money, otherwise I really won’t accept it next time you send me bamboo.”
The middle-aged Orion looked hesitant, and after a while he agreed in embarrassment:
"Then...then just listen to you, Boss Xiaofang.
But there is one thing that Boss Xiaofang said wrongly. You are the son of Boss Dafang. If Boss Dafang is no longer here, this favor will be passed on to you.
I'm just a rough guy, and I can't tell you the truth, but others have said that the father's debts are repaid by the son, and the father's hatred is repaid by the son, so why can't your father's kindness fall on you?"
Fang Chang stopped refuting and just laughed.
"Uncle Li, I think Brother Li is already drunk. You go down and rest first. I have asked someone to clean up the room. I will call you again during dinner in the evening."
Fang Chang pointed to the young Orion who had passed out drunk on the table at some point and said.
"This bastard!"
The middle-aged Orion glanced at his son, who was muttering something delicious, and became so angry that he slapped his son on the head.
The young Orion suddenly woke up, his muscles all over his body exploded, and the air was swayed, just like a tiger coming out of its cage, with a roaring mountain forest, a powerful momentum that is not angry.
But when he saw the middle-aged Orion with a dark face, that aura immediately extinguished and turned into the innocent look of the little white rabbit.
"Dad, why did you hit me?"
The middle-aged Orion said angrily: "Sleep after eating, what a shame! Get up, Boss Xiaofang has asked people to clean up the room, you go to sleep in the room for me."
The young Orion showed a harmless smile, glanced at Fang Chang, then nodded to the middle-aged Orion and said, "Okay dad."
Fang Chang was moved in his heart.
The young Orion was hiding a bit deep. If it hadn't been revealed inadvertently just now, he would have thought he was just an ordinary young Orion.
With that kind of momentum, the evil wolf that died in his hands was not even worthy of carrying his shoes.
But he didn't ask any more questions.
There are countless strange people and people in this world. If you want to understand everything, your brain will be too tired.
He stretched, yawned, asked Lao Zhangtou to come out and clear the table, and then wandered off to sleep.
Cultivation is not an easy thing.
Especially the spiritual energy tempering in the early stage, if you want to gently temper the spiritual energy to every part of the body, it is an exhausting and meticulous job.
…
Early the next morning.
The Orion father and son packed their bags, with excitement that could not be concealed on their faces.
Because Fang Chang gave them a full ten taels of silver yesterday, which was more than their first tiger, and this had to be done while ensuring that the tiger's skin was intact.
Although cutting bamboo is a bit risky, it is nothing compared to hunting a tiger.
"Zhu Gui, you can look after the store at home. Well, it doesn't matter if it's closed. The sales are almost done anyway."
Fang Chang looked at the shop of Shengshengzhai and found that it was much empty.
It turns out that these days, Zhu Guilu has successively cleared most of the goods in the store under the gimmick of everyone being biliterate.
Except for the first order that Fang Chang placed, the others cannot be said to be big profits, they can only be said to be no losses.
Because the main purpose of selling goods is to clear inventory.
"Uncle Li, Brother Li, I'd like to ask you to lead the way."
Fang Chang did not lead the donkey cart this time, because the Orions and his son led the ox cart, otherwise hundreds of kilograms of bamboo would not have been delivered.
At this time, there were still two large boxes on the bullock cart, which contained disposable puppets.
This made Fang Chang make up his mind to buy a storage bag at the next gathering of casual cultivators in Qingniu Mountain.
Otherwise, if he continues like this, his qualifications as a puppet master will be completely lost.
