Chapter 191 [Mountain Monkey Tracking]

"interesting."

  Fang Chang said to himself, he raised his eyes and looked, although there were many houses away, he could still confirm that the beggar's eyes were different.

   At this time, he had just visited the local city god.

  The town **** of this small town, surnamed Zhao, was a young scholar who took office after his death. He was very happy to see Fang Chang, and the two chatted happily.

  Zhao Chenghuang also happily accepted the gift that Fang Chang was carrying casually, and gave Fang Chang two miscellaneous books as a return gift.

   As for what the beggar said just now, Fang Chang feels very familiar.

  Because among the living beings he knows, there is such a monkey. After refining the cross-bones, he wandered around the world before transforming, looking for opportunities to transform.

  Besides, it is good at learning, so it has crafts by its side, and it lives very well in the world.

  The palms in the sleeves counted slightly, and he nodded.

   Sure enough, it was the monkey.

   Fang Chang's heart moved, he turned around, and walked towards the street corner where the beggars were lying in the distance.

  Too lazy to go to the street stalls to look for snacks, he took out two strings of copper coins from the package, and ate them like biscuits, and there was a hint of sweetness.

  After successful practice, his teeth are very good, and his digestion ability does not know the upper limit. Whether it is copper juice or iron pills, it is easy to eat and drink. He has tried them all, which is a very curious experience

   When they walked to a few beggars, they were talking about the girls around them.

  Fang Chang went straight to the corner, and the old-looking beggar at the place where the voice came from said, "This little brother invited me. I have something to ask."

  When the beggars saw Fang Chang, they noticed the price of the white clothes on his body, and they even noticed the long sword on his back.

  Even if the other party looks harmless to humans and animals, and even has a sense of closeness involuntarily, following years of experience, beggars still quickly grab their broken bowls and pots, and sneak away to escape.

  As for whether the "old beggar" behind is lucky or about to be shrouded in tragedy, they don't care. At this time, it is always better to run as far as possible.

  The old beggar also saw all this and was terrified.

   But being confronted by the other party, he had no room or opportunity to escape, so he had to boldly say: "What's the matter with the official looking for the young one? My legs are disabled, and I can't do much."

   Fang Chang smiled, took out a small piece of silver, and threw it into the bowl in front of the other party.

  The eyes of the old beggar were instantly caught by the falling silver, and he was surprised and happy in his heart.

  With these, the plan he has been planning for the past few years, that is, to open a small stall in the downtown area, this "very lofty ideal" for beggars, may immediately become a reality.

  He swallowed his saliva, and said: "I can't bear the great gift of the guest officer. Although this life is bad, I still hope that it will be comfortable to stay in the sun. I can't bear it."

  It turned out that he thought that the man in white was giving money for his life. He thought that after being questioned, he would be asked to do dangerous things immediately, and his life might be lost.

  He has been in the circle of beggars for a long time, and he knows a lot of them.

  Although he refused verbally, the old beggar felt a little gloomy in his heart.

  He knew that many times, orders from people who came to his door were far beyond what a mere beggar could refuse.

  Fang Chang clapped his hands and laughed:

   "Don't worry, I'm just asking a few questions. I heard just now that you saw a man with a rough face and a big mouth and hurried out of the city?"

   "Returning to the official, yes, the little one has indeed seen such a one, but it is not a person, but a white-haired monkey." The old beggar dared not neglect or hesitate, straightened his back quickly, and said with cupped hands.

"when?"

"Two evenings ago, the monkey looked in a hurry. It seemed that someone was chasing after it, and it seemed that it was chasing something. After it left the city gate, it went north. I couldn't pay the city gate tax, and I didn't dare to go out of the city on weekdays, so I didn't Track and observe."

  Fang Chang nodded. He put his hands in his sleeves and continued to count with his fingers.

  The monkey spirit wrapped under the human clothes is indeed the Sun Yun he knows, but the other party's whereabouts are erratic now, and he is accompanied by disasters.

   It’s just that divination skills are not like spells. They cannot be mastered by one method but all methods. In this regard, Fang Chang still has a huge room for improvement, and he can only see some fragments of the screen here and there.

   "Very well, that's about it. Is there anything else to add?" He asked the old but young beggar on the opposite side.

  The old beggar talked about the color of Hou Jing’s clothes at that time, and then racked his brains, but he still couldn’t think of anything to add. He had no choice but to talk about the experience of the lower back:

   "In recent years, I have often seen dark shadows wandering the streets outside at night. Although they look like people, they are definitely not people. I have never heard of anyone walking in the dark, with their feet floating on the ground."

"Well."

  Fang Chang nodded. It seems that the other party did not have more details to add about Sun Yun, but this "black shadow" phenomenon has actually been more common in the world in recent years since the first time I encountered it in Huqiao Town.

The city gods, land and mountain gods from all over the world scratched their heads a little bit at these. Fortunately, although this kind of dark ghost is unusual, as if it is muddled and without wisdom, it seems that all minds have been sealed, so it does not hurt people and will not do anything. evil.

  He said to the beggar in front of him, "Thank you very much."

   Then turned and left.

  The beggar at the back carefully stared at Fang Chang's back, looked at Fang Chang's snow-white robes, the green cloth wrapping on his back, and the bark scabbard.

  He took out the small piece of silver from the broken bowl in front of him, and quickly put it into his arms. After checking that there were no other beggars coming, he carefully accelerated and ran towards home.

   Now the funds to realize the dream are complete.

   It is estimated that in a few days, there will be another busy stall on the street in the city in the early morning.

  ...

  …

  Fang Chang replenished his food and added a lot of sorghum wine to the gourd before leaving the city gate and heading north.

   This should be the direction in which Sun Yun is escaping. If he walks in this direction, he has a premonition in his spiritual sense that he will soon meet the white-haired monkey demon Sun Yun, and important things will happen then.

  Compared to the area around Yunzhong Mountain, or even along the river, the north side is relatively poor.

  Whether it is the clothes or the spirit, there is a lot of difference. Many people have disheveled faces, and many people have thin clothes. I don’t know if the government is exploiting too much or the production here is too scarce. Or is it because of overpopulation and too little arable land per capita? In short, there is no shortage of people who leave their hometowns and go outside to make a living.

   And, here re-enters the mountains.

  The mountains are connected to the mountains, with strange rocks and overgrown vegetation. Many roads are very difficult for ordinary people to pass.

   But Fang Chang didn't take it seriously, he walked on the ground like walking on the ground, while admiring the scenery on both sides, the peaks here are taller and majestic, even more steep than Yunzhong Mountain.
