After paying the one yuan entrance fee, Chen Fan followed the flow of people and entered the fort.
In the early morning, Songjiabao seemed a little deserted, but it was still very lively with people coming and going.
In the air, there is a faint fragrance, the smell of meat buns. Not far away, just five or six meters in front, there is a breakfast shop with several tables.
Chen Fan thought for a while, then walked over and ordered a basket of steamed buns and a bowl of porridge for three yuan.
Things are very expensive, but fortunately they are no longer what they used to be. It costs only three yuan, which is not worth mentioning.
Sitting on the stool, he held the bun in one hand and pretended to be in a daze, but in fact he was looking at the city wall and the man's back.
"What should we do next?"
Another problem was placed in front of him.
The most direct and straightforward way is of course to ask the person named Yang Xiaochun for clarification.
Judging from the opponent's previous behavior, this person does not seem to be an honest person, but more or less cunning. A cunning person is most likely not a good person.
To deal with this kind of person, nice words will not work. Only by putting a knife on his neck and seeing some blood will the other party cooperate.
Of course, there is a hidden danger in doing this.
What if, what if the other person is really a good person? He really doesn't know the identity of himself and others, and he lies to his companions, and he just doesn't want to get into trouble.
Then what you are doing is inappropriate.
Chen Fan frowned.
In the field of vision, Yang Xiaochun took out a telescope from his pocket and began to look out. On the other hand, other people were either standing or looking down at the passing crowd.
After thinking about it again and again, he still felt that it would be most convenient to ask him for clarification.
Just pretend to be a gangster and ask him where he helped the horse thief's mount. Be sure to look fierce and make next plans based on the other party's reaction.
There is no way, he doesn't have the ability like Sister Meng Yu. In everything, he can only take one step at a time.
He sat there for almost an hour until the stall owner closed the stall and had to leave.
Fortunately, at this time, there were more people around, including some setting up street vendors.
"He won't stand on the city wall all day, right?" Chen Fan's face changed slightly.
He had to leave around five o'clock in the afternoon, otherwise he would most likely be caught by the guards.
What's even worse is that if there is no suitable opportunity today, he will have to come tomorrow. If there is no chance tomorrow, he will come back the day after tomorrow.
This is precious time!
If he had used it for martial arts training, he would have already reached the middle stage of meat refining.
But other than that, what else can be done?
Chen Fan racked his brains and thought hard.
If not to lure the other party over, then who should he go to? And for what reason? Besides, he and Yang Xiaochun were strangers to each other, so it was unrealistic to think about bringing him to a remote place.
Then we can only hide it and wait until night to see if there is a chance. If so, even if we are caught and pay a fine, it will be worth it.
Having made up his mind, he set out and decided to go find the old man selling the exercises first. Although it had only been less than a day and he didn't know if there were any more basic exercises at his stall, it wouldn't hurt to go and have a look.
As for buying blood rice and weapons, I'd better put them aside for now. It won't be too late to buy them again when I go back.
After crossing the street and arriving at the alley, shouts kept ringing in his ears. Chen Fan walked straight past and soon saw the familiar figure.
I saw the old man sitting on a stool. Every time someone passed by, he stood up and shouted vigorously, but the people passing by were not even interested in looking at him.
Whenever this happened, the old man would sit down and curse, and then stand up again when someone passed by.
Just like that, the cycle repeats.
I have to say, I am really thick-skinned.
"well."
The old man sat on the stool again, looked at the few secret books placed in front of him, and sighed.
It seems that not many people are willing to buy my own things.
"It's all those people's fault."
Thinking of this, he thought angrily, my reputation has been ruined. If this continues, I can only find another place.
But these days, it’s not easy to find a place to live! Those people from the small villages outside dream of living there.
"wrong!"
His eyes suddenly lit up. There are still good people in this world, just like that silly boy. He was the only one who was willing to spend money to buy his own things a few days ago, and he was the kind who bought them all.
If he moved away, where would he find such an easy fool?
"well."
The old man sighed, missing the silly boy on his first day.
"uncle."
At this moment, there was a sound that made him almost jump three feet from the stool.
"Young man, is that you?"
The old man's eyes were as wide as copper bells and his lips were trembling as he looked at Chen Fan in front of him.
"Haha, it's me."
Chen Fan smiled, looked at the five secret books on the stall, and said with some disappointment: "Are these the only ones?"
"Didn't I expect you to come so quickly?"
The old man smiled like a flower, "Little brother, don't look at the small quantity, they are all high-quality products."
"Yeah?"
Chen Fan glanced at them, and they were [One Yang Finger], [Nine Palace Sword Technique], [Seven Evil Palms], [Xiantian Kung Fu] and [Heavenly Sword Technique].
What he doesn't want is the Thirteen Taibao Henglian and the Golden Bell.
I was even more disappointed, but it was reasonable, he came too quickly.
In addition, looking at the names of these five books, they are quite interesting. It would be great if there was an authentic one.
"Uncle, just like last time, can you let me try it again? Don't worry, I only watched half of it, and I promise not to watch more."
Chen Fan smiled.
"No problem, look what you said, if you want to see it, can you still not let me see it? But we have agreed that we can only see half of it."
The old man rubbed his hands excitedly.
He really didn't expect that Chen Fan would come the next day. If he had known it earlier, he would have worked overtime and written more books.
But then again, since this kid came so quickly, maybe he lives near Songjiabao?
Doesn’t that mean that there will be no shortage of people to buy from me in the future?
"Is it that kid again?"
"He's here again?"
"No, how could there be such a stupid person? It's not enough to be deceived once, but you have to come here to be deceived a second time?"
Some people around were speechless.
Some of the stall owners were even more envious. If only they had customers as heartless as the ones in front of them.
"Go, go, go, what are you talking about?"
The old man was unhappy when he heard this, "These are all real goods. If you don't know the goods, don't be blind. It's true."
Then he looked at Chen Fan with a smile, put his hands in the palm of his hand, pointed at the secret book in front of him and said: "Little brother, ignore them, just take a look at it and read it as you like."
Chen Fan knelt down, picked up the nearest book and started reading.
"Oh, my little brother has a good eye! He picked the most powerful one at a glance."
The old man patted his thigh and said with a flattering look on his face: "This Yang Finger is not simple. It can not only get close to the enemy's acupuncture point, but also bully the enemy from a distance. It will leave you when you hit it, and retreat when you attack it. It is really a way to defeat the enemy."
The ultimate way to protect yourself!
Of course, if the effect is so good, the price must be a little more expensive, hehehe."
However, Chen Fan turned a deaf ear. If the old man's words could be believed, the sow would be able to climb a tree. He turned a few pages in succession and had a vague feeling of bad premonition.
This [Yiyang Finger] seems to be a fake?
Almost halfway through, he put down the secret book and picked up the second one.
"Oh, this is the Nine Palaces Sword Technique!"
The old man's voice suddenly increased by more than ten decibels, "Little brother, if you buy this swordsmanship, you will make a lot of money. Do you know why?"
Before Chen Fan had time to answer, he continued: "This set of swordsmanship has a total of ninety-nine and eighty-one moves, including the Nine Palace Body Technique and the Nine Palace Palm Technique. In other words, you only spent one copy of it.
I went back after studying martial arts for three years. To be honest, if you hadn’t been destined to me, little brother, I would never have sold this set of swordsmanship to him."
"Really? Then I really should thank you."
Chen Fan chuckled.
He flipped through about a quarter of the page, but it still didn't show up on the skill bar.
This means that the secret book in your hand is most likely fake. No matter how awesome the old man brags, what's the use of it?
He flipped through two or three more pages, and after he was sure, he put it down and picked up the third secret book.
Still fake.
This made him look a little ugly.
I put it down, picked up the fourth book, and flipped through almost half of it. There was no change at all in the skill bar.
Obviously, it's still fake.
Chen Fan put it down and looked at the last book, [Xiantian Gong].
Judging from the name, it should be a martial art that cultivates the true energy in the body. Although his body has not yet reached the stage of producing true energy, it is good to prepare for a rainy day.
There are five books in total, and four of them are fake. This one must be real, right?
Thinking of this, he raised his head and looked at the old man.
The latter glanced to the side, and then said enthusiastically: "Little brother, you don't like the first four books? That's right, the first four books are all external, only this innate skill is internal.
Once practiced, it can eliminate all kinds of diseases, regulate deficiency and excess, and can cure even serious internal injuries. It is really a must-have for home and travel."
"Then let me take a look."
Chen Fan didn't dare to have high expectations, but he also felt that this old man wouldn't be so awesome. He really didn't have one of the five books, right?
Then he discovered that there was really no real copy.
His face darkened.
"Uncle, if I buy all five books at once, how much will it cost?"
"Ahem."
The old man cleared his throat, "Little brother, I believe you can see that, although the number of these five books is small, they are all secrets that are not taught to others, especially the Nine Palaces Sword Technique. Each one is stronger than the three.
So, if you want to buy them all back, I’ll give you a cheaper price, just one hundred yuan.”
"One hundred dollars."
Chen Fan read each word one by one, then sneered and said: "Uncle, your price has doubled compared to the last time I came here."
"Hi."
The old man looked innocent, "Little brother, I have already said that this time's technique is much better than the last one. I charge you 100 yuan for five copies, which is really cheap.
If you don’t believe it, go to the nearby Kuangfeng Martial Arts School and ask how much it costs to learn one of their boxing techniques? It’s a few hundred dollars! This doesn’t include food expenses.”
Chen Fan almost laughed out loud.
He originally thought that both parties were very happy last time, so why should the other party show more sincerity next time?
After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he intends to buy it for the long term.
As a result, this old man really thought he was being taken advantage of? Not to mention that they were all fakes, and he even sold them to him at double the price.
That's too much!
The old man also noticed that the man in front of him was unhappy. He hesitated for a moment, stamped his foot and said, "That's it. Since you are a regular customer, I will give you a discount of twenty or eighty yuan, and you can take it all."
eighty?
You actually have the nerve to ask for eighty?
I think you look like eighty!
Chen Fan had the urge to punch him, but luckily he held it back.
First of all, if you hit this old man, you will definitely be blackmailed for money, so you can't do it.
Secondly, and most importantly, this old man must still have a lot of genuine goods. He cannot make the relationship stalemate, otherwise, it would be better if he can no longer buy genuine goods at a very cheap price, because he is afraid of paying a high price.
, there is no place to buy it, which is the biggest loss.
But, you have to let him know that he is not a fool.
