The Legend of the Condor Heroes: From Being Expelled from Peach Blossom Island
Chapter 12: Righteous Mind and Calm Thoughts
Chapter 12: Righteous Mind and Calm Thoughts
When Yuanyuanlian saw Fang Xiu again, he was really surprised. He was no longer dressed in rags, bowing his head and looking fawning.
This set of clothes is considered the standard uniform for the disciples of Peach Blossom Island. Feng Heng cares very much about his disciples, especially his nephew Wu Mianfeng, and pays great attention to his daily food, clothing, housing and transportation.
At this time, Fang Xiu was wearing a light blue suit made of cotton, which was close-fitting and capable, with broad shoulders and a thin waist. The cuffs were tightened, and there was a wide brocade belt of the same color with auspicious clouds around his waist. The collar and cuffs were embroidered with flowing cloud patterns with silver threads.
He also wore a blue outer robe on the outside, which was darker in color and made of brocade. The wide sleeves of the outer robe only reached Fang Xiu's elbows, and the edges were trimmed with gold thread. A peach blossom was embroidered on the left shoulder.
Fang Xiu's hair was tied casually with a ribbon. His fair face had a more heroic look and his eyes were sharp, making him look more like a young nobleman. His short body became more upright as his temperament changed. He was no longer that little beggar.
Yuanyuanlian was so surprised that she couldn't speak. She stammered and pointed at Fang Xiu for a long time before finally saying something.
"Xiao Fangxiu, you are so beautiful."
Fang Xiu was very satisfied with his current outfit. It was interesting to say that when Wu Mianfeng fainted on the roadside, Mo Laodao and A Ku passed by. Normally, if there was a dead body on the road, Mo Laodao would never approach. It was because this set of clothes looked valuable that Mo Laodao came over and A Ku realized that Wu Mianfeng was not dead.
"Thank you for your help, young lady. This coin is my thank you gift."
There was a gold coin inlaid on Fang Xiu's belt. When his clothes were washed and put away by Ah Ku, he had forgotten for a while that there was such a valuable thing. Now he just wanted to use it to thank Yuan Yuan Lian. Fang Xiu has always been a grateful person.
Yuanyuanlian's eyes widened when she saw the money. She wanted to refuse but was reluctant to do so. Seeing this, Fang Xiu directly stuffed the money into her hands and bowed again.
"Even a meal of kindness is worth repaying with a spring of gratitude. This is all I have with me now. If you don't accept it, I will feel uneasy."
After saying that, Fang Xiu turned around and left. After walking a few steps, he turned back and saw Yuanyuan's face still staring at him blankly. He smiled gently.
"Miss, let's say goodbye. Also, my name is Wu Chengyu."
After waking up, Fang Xiu figured out many things. In his previous life, he lived during the heyday of China, and those peaceful days came from the blessing of his motherland.
This life is in the late Southern Song Dynasty, a world of martial arts where everything depends on oneself. A stable life is fought for, while escaping for a moment will waste a lifetime.
If Mo Laodao were still alive, Fang Xiu would tell him: "Is it possible? Actually, I am not afraid of death."
From the moment he put on this outfit, he decided that from now on he would no longer be Fang Xiu of the 21st century, but Wu Mianfeng who felt aggrieved.
Fang Xiu left the east of the city and headed straight for the market, throwing away the broken wooden stick he used as a crutch. Although every step was excruciatingly painful, he tried his best to look like a normal person.
It was still early when he arrived at the market town, and only a few breakfast shops were open. Fang Xiu came to a pawnshop opposite, but the door was closed. He was not in a hurry, so he took out the only four copper coins he had left and bought two buns. He sat at the door of the pawnshop and ate his fill silently. Then he closed his eyes and practiced the Bi Bo Heart Method.
After a full hour, the door of the pawnshop opened from the inside, and the pawnshop clerk came out with a broom. When he saw Fang Xiu, he immediately greeted him with a smile.
"Hello, sir. Thank you for visiting our shop so early in the morning. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
A person's clothes are his appearance and a horse's saddle is his appearance. Fang Xiu had passed by the door many times before and met this waiter several times, but the waiter did not recognize that this was the little beggar from before.
"Hey, is your shopkeeper Wei here? If you want to see him, please say that an old friend is visiting."
Hearing that he was an old friend, the waiter's smile widened a little. He quickly invited Fang Xiu in, asked him to take a seat, and then turned and went into the back hall.
Fang Xiu looked around the pawnshop's furnishings. It was similar to what he saw on TV, with a tall counter that he couldn't reach with his current height.
As for the old friend, it wasn't Fang Xiu, but Wu Mianfeng. Two years ago, Wu Mianfeng had met the shopkeeper here. Not long after, a thin, middle-aged man wearing a fur coat and a small hat emerged from the back hall. Seeing Fang Xiu's puzzled look, he didn't hesitate at all, nor did he neglect Fang Xiu because he was still a child. He bowed and said, "I'm not going to do this to you."
"I don't know which old friend of mine is visiting. This young man looks a little unfamiliar to me."
The other party was so polite, worthy of being a long-term businessman. Harmony brings wealth, so Fang Xiu did not lose manners and stood up and bowed.
"Two years ago, I came to visit with my eldest brother and had the good fortune to meet the shopkeeper. At that time, I was less than eight years old, a young boy, so it's normal that Shopkeeper Wei doesn't remember me. My eldest brother is Qu Lingfeng, and I am Wu Mianfeng, a disciple of Peach Blossom Island. I'm honored."
Although Fang Xiu decided not to use the name Wu Mianfeng anymore, he still had to use this alias for a few days before rescuing A Ku.
After hearing this, Shopkeeper Wei's eyes lit up. He quickly invited Fang Xiu to sit down and asked the waiter to serve tea, which had to be the best West Lake Longjing.
Fang Xiu was not polite either. He came here today just to use the big banner to cover up his own mistakes.
Peach Blossom Island is far away from the mainland, and the daily food, clothing and other necessities of the family on the island are not obtained out of thin air. The mute servants on the island are only responsible for daily cleaning, and it is impossible for the disciples of Peach Blossom Island to farm, so they have always had their own procurement channels on land.
This shopkeeper Wei runs not only a pawnshop, but also the largest trading company in Gushan County.
When Shopkeeper Wei encountered trouble while traveling for business, he was accidentally rescued by Huang Yaoshi. In addition to being grateful, he also wanted to curry favor with Peach Blossom Island and make it his backer. From then on, he was responsible for providing all living resources to Peach Blossom Island, and the person who was responsible for connecting with Shopkeeper Wei was Qu Lingfeng.
Shopkeeper Wei provides a batch of supplies to Peach Blossom Island every three months. The last time was just two months ago, and Wu Mianfeng and his fellow disciples were expelled from Peach Blossom Island more than a month ago. At this time, Shopkeeper Wei was unaware of the dramatic changes that had taken place on Peach Blossom Island.
Two years ago, Qu Lingfeng took Feng Mofeng and Wu Mianfeng ashore for a trip, so Fang Xiu found these relationships in Wu Mianfeng's memory.
Given Fang Xiu's personality and Wu Mianfeng's hatred for Peach Blossom Island, they would never deal with anyone related to Peach Blossom Island again. However, if Fang Xiu wanted to save A Ku, he had to first find help from Manager Wei and lay a backup plan.
As soon as the tea was served, Shopkeeper Wei said with a smile, "I remember now. You are the youngest disciple of Island Master Huang, the Sixth Young Master. Although two years have passed, the Sixth Young Master has an extraordinary appearance. I still remember him clearly. I apologize for not recognizing him at first sight. I will offer you tea instead of wine to apologize to you."
It's a pity that the Sixth Young Master came at the wrong time. This tea is from last year. It's early spring in March now. If it were another month later, we could drink the best Mingqian Longjing.
Shopkeeper Wei was indeed impeccable, and Fang Xiu felt relieved after hearing what he said.
Fang Xiu quickly raised his teacup and drank with Manager Wei.
"I don't know where Mr. Qu is now. The last time I went to Peach Blossom Island to deliver goods, I only saw Mr. Lu the Fourth, but missed Mr. Qu."
"Manager Wei, you're too polite. My senior brother has been ordered by our master to go to the Northland on an errand. I'm afraid he won't be back in the next few years."
Shopkeeper Wei kept saying it was a pity, but the businessman was too polite. Shopkeeper Wei was obviously trying to curry favor with Fang Xiu, so Fang Xiu didn't want to delay any longer and went straight to the point.
"To be honest with Shopkeeper Wei, my visit has nothing to do with Peach Blossom Island. I'm disturbing you for a personal matter. Please help me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Xiu took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and placed it in front of Manager Wei.
It has been a few days since the release, but the basic data is still not good enough. This book is a bit uncertain, mainly because it is difficult to be seen on the website. Without a contract, there is no recommendation. It is very difficult.
