Chapter 336: Gravekeeper

At noon on the second day after arriving in Fuchun City, Li Weizhen entered the inner city alone in a carriage.Mobile terminal

There were many reasons for not bringing Fu Jingzhang with him. For example, once he entered the inner city, this local snake from the outer city was no different from Li Weizhen, a pure outsider.

The information I learned from Fu Lichi's mouth is that there are many monks active in the inner city, and they need to be more careful in their every move.It would be more convenient for Li Weizhen to go alone.

Horse-drawn carriages in the outer city had to stop and turn around outside the gate of the inner city. On the contrary, horse-drawn carriages coming out of the inner city could pass freely in the outer city.

Because Li Weizhen had shown the "Thousands of Miles Welcome Spring Card", even though Li Weizhen covered his breath and face with a black gauze hat, the guards guarding the city gate still let him go, and did not dare to interrogate the offender.

Not only that, before entering the gate, one of the guards also told Li Weizhen very intimately that if he needed to rent a carriage, he could rent official vehicles for free at the post house not far from the city gate.

It seems that this "guest of Floating Spring City" does have good treatment.

It is true that those coachmen who receive official salaries will definitely be the best guides.But there are advantages and disadvantages in everything. If you are greedy for this advantage, then you will be easily monitored along with your whereabouts.

This may be just speculation, but be careful sailing for thousands of years.

Therefore, after entering the city, Li Weizhen did not go directly to the post house, but walked for a mile, and rented a common carriage from the carriage union.After paying the deposit with spirit stones, the man who dealt with the abacus at the front desk accepted the five spirit stones indifferently.

The young coachman has a cheerful personality and is very talkative.He is a child who grew up in the inner city, and his parents were also engaged in the driving industry.Before getting in the car, he told Li Weizhen to rest assured that he only needed to tell him where to go, and he was sure to take the fastest route, and he would not make detours and go the other way.

There is a saying: There are different winds for a hundred miles, and different customs for a thousand miles.

In Fuchun City, working as a coachman not only pays a lot of money, but also does not lose face.To become a professional coachman, one must not only be innocent, but also have to go through multiple assessments before being allowed to work.It often takes more than ten years of hard work to go from an apprentice to a senior coachman.

Otherwise, ordinary people would not be able to control the majesty of those twelve horses!

The grand layout of the inner city can be seen from the spaciousness of the roads.On the road facing the same direction, the outer city has only two lanes, while the inner city has four lanes.In order to prevent congestion, there are a total of twelve lanes in both directions on some hub roads where traffic flows converge.

The carriage that Li Weizhen rode on that day was only equipped with two yellow pumas, but ordinary has the advantage of being ordinary, that is, the turning speed is fast.Anyway, those noble carriages often driven by eight handsome horses really don't see any practical use other than showing off.It's not on the vast plains, and it still has to be blocked when it should be blocked.

On the road, Li Weizhen occasionally saw some carriages with green flags on the roof, so he asked curiously.

The young coachman explained that although the carriages also came from the union, they were rented by the coachman himself and the union, and the rent was paid daily.

During this period, the coachman can pick up passengers freely on the road in a horse-drawn carriage, and when there are guests, the flag will be taken down.Because the rent has been paid to the trade union, no matter how much you earn that day, you don’t need to be drawn by the trade union. It is a kind of self-financed business.

The young coachman is completely working for the trade union. Even if he does not show up for a day, he can still get paid, and his income is relatively stable.

Li Weizhen had no intention of visiting the entire inner city. In fact, even if he spent a whole day on the road, it would be difficult to do so.

After half an hour of sightseeing, the car came to a commercial street selling items from Xianjia, and Li Weizhen bid farewell to the young coachman.

When parting, Li Weizhen still did not forget to joke: "Little brother, if you prepare an extra flag, you may have a prosperous business on the way back!"

The young coachman just shook his head and smiled, "Then my job will be ruined!"

Li Weizhen took the lead in going to several popular shops near the archway in the street, but in the end, he was very disappointed who wanted to learn more.Because, there are several shops in succession, all of which sell extremely fancy low-level magic weapons.Among them, the flying swords with various styles are the most vying for beauty. The gems inlaid on the hilt are simply dazzling!

However, the store clerk enthusiastically introduced how good their products are and how they work.It seems that as long as his family's magic weapon is used, the celestial family's aura can go straight to the sky, and it can deter Xiao Xiaoxiao from all sides without taking a shot.This made Li Weizhen, who was determined not to buy it, very embarrassed. He didn't dare to stay longer, so he ran away.

On the contrary, there are two shops that specialize in selling clothing, which aroused Li Weizhen's interest.The clothes or accessories sold are indeed very unusual.The last class, ordinary people wear it on the body, it can have the magical effect of warming in winter and cooling in summer.Fabric fabrics are also ordinary water and fire, which cannot be infected at all.

Wearing some clothes on your body not only makes you feel refreshed, but also gives others a radiant look.

Therefore, the largest number of customers in the store are not monks, but ordinary ladies in the city, as well as young ladies who like to dress up.The ordinary people in the eyes of these monks on the mountain are able to drop a lot of spirit stones, which is ironic.

Li Weizhen personally saw a smug young man this day, and bought more than 30 sets of new clothes in one go, saying that he would choose slowly when he went back, and give away all the rest.When paying the bill, the old servant next to him took out a box of spirit stones from the storage bag to pay the bill as usual, and did not ask the store to refill it, saying that his young master hated odds and ends.

After the two masters and servants who had almost moved half of the shop's clothes left, the shop assistant was very quick, and the empty containers were quickly filled with new items from the back warehouse.What is even more amazing is that most of these new clothes are completely different from the previous ones.

This time, Li Weizhen was really a little moved and wanted to reach into his pocket.He didn't want to buy new clothes for himself, the first idea that came to his mind was to buy some clothes to give away.For example, Wen Renyu, who likes to be romantic the most, should give him beautiful clothes, it must be a very good gift.

And Zhuang Ming, seeing him coming and going, only had two sets of clothes for changing, which were the most common clothes.In addition to practicing, I have to do heavy and dirty work on weekdays, so I really need to enrich my wardrobe.

But when I think about it again, I don’t want to give it away. With so many people living together, it’s not reasonable to only give it to one or two people.But men and women, tall and short, have to choose clothes that make everyone happy... Li Weizhen doesn't think he has such an outstanding vision.

"Shopkeeper, please help me wrap up these clothes!"

"Guest officer, do you mean to wrap the row of clothes in front of you?"

"No, it's all the clothes, shoes, crowns and so on in your shop, don't leave the scarves and handkerchiefs behind!"

The young shopkeeper, who has been sent by the sect to do business in Fuchun City for five years, definitely has the confidence to claim that he has read countless people.But when he heard that the mysterious guest officer in black and hat said he was going to clear the place with Bao Yuan, he still couldn't help but froze on the spot.His performance was worse than that of the rookies who came out to do business on the first day.

When did such a dandy young master appear in Fuchun City?

It was another night full of silence and stars.

Fan Shuyao, who personally served her mother to sleep, came to the Fan's Ancestral Hall alone, which is called the forbidden area of ​​the Fan Mansion.

According to common sense, the family ancestral hall dedicated to the ancestors cannot be built together with the mansion for people to live in.But Fan's ancestral hall is located in Fan's mansion, and it is the courtyard with the largest area.The places where living people live are not so magnificent!

In other words, each generation of patriarchs must live in Fan Mansion during their lifetime, and the incense tablet after death is still placed in Fan Mansion.

What's even more bizarre is that the ancestral mausoleums were also built on the back hill of Fan Mansion.The entire Fan family's ancestral land is more than [-] mu, and a mansion occupies a quarter of it!

Facing north and facing south, Fan Mansion, with its back against the mountains, is a yang house, but it is actually a feng shui pattern of yin tombs!

The triple gates that you pass through when you come in from the outside, those suanni stone beasts, the unicorn screen wall...all the arrangements are just to keep as much as possible the ancestral shadows that are enshrined by incense and fire day and night.

It is a treasure land of geomantic omen, and it is also a prison for enclosure!So... what about the living people living in Fan's mansion?

After entering the ancestral hall, Fan Shuyao first washed his hands at the cleansing platform located on the left side of the hall, and then smoked his clothes with an incense burner to cleanse away evil spirits and filth.After tirelessly doing these things, he just went to the main hall. After entering the door, he kowtowed three times with a sincere face, and then got up to take three sticks of incense from the incense table, and wanted to burn incense with candle fire to worship the ancestors.

Everything is done according to the rules and etiquette established by the predecessors.

The only difference is that women are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, and those who violate the rules will die!

Therefore, under the dancing candlelight, the three sticks of incense passed for more than ten breaths, except for being slightly blackened, there was no sign of burning at all!

In this regard, Fan Shuyao was not shocked or annoyed. She stared coldly at the incense tablets that were placed high above, and said with a sneer, "Anything against me? It doesn't matter! In fact, I don't really want to have the same last name as you. I leave Fan family, I will only live more freely, but ten years, 30 years... within a hundred years, without me, you should be very clear about the future of the Fan family!"

"When that tree dies and leaves fall, do you still want to enjoy the incense offerings from your children and grandchildren like today, to help the reincarnation in the next life, and the fairy road will be smooth? Drinking the northwest wind is not for you!"

After all, Fan Shuyao simply put down the three unlit incense sticks, focused his eyes on the best position, the ancestral tablet that looked like a moon held by the stars, and said with a calm expression: "I can return my surname. I will see one and kill one. But if you only provide me with the 300 years of incense and ancestral shadows accumulated over the past [-] years. In return, within ten years, I will let only one clan exist in this city !"

"This is not a threat, nor is it asking for alms, it is seeking truth from facts, and this is the time for you to really think about the future!"

As soon as the words fell, the flames flickered, and three wisps of smoke floated up!

A woman was born at the end of midsummer in the year of Gengwu, and she was born at the time of Xinji on the day of Gengchen.The golden horse is whistling, and the drow is outstanding; the star is alive, and the killing power is even more outstanding!
