Chapter 146 [Hu Yun's request]

  So Fang Chang told Zhang Shanshen about Gu Shan's deeds.

  This description earned the other party a hearty laugh: "That Mr. Gu is really a wonderful person. If there is a chance, let's play a few games together."

  Hu Yun held a rough earthenware teapot beside him, serving tea to the two obediently.

  After a few rounds, the two had their own winners and losers.

  Fang Chang smiled and praised: "During this period, Zhang Shanshen's chess strength has gradually improved."

  Zhang Chun nodded, with a look of satisfaction on his face:

   "When I have nothing to do, I put a lot of energy into playing chess. It happened that an old friend heard that I like chess and gave me a few chess books. After studying it, I gained a lot of experience."

   "It's just empty-handed experience, but no one can play the game. To verify this harvest, you can only fight with your left and right hands. It is not until Mr. Fang returns that you can find your opponent. After a few rounds, it feels quite mastery, which is very enjoyable."

  He stretched out his hand to pick up a chess piece from the chess basket beside him, and placed it on the small chessboard engraved in the center of the big stone table with clear and straight vertical and horizontal lines. Fang Chang looked at Hu Yun beside him, and said to Zhang Shanshen:

   "You guys come and go so much, why don't you teach Hu Yun how to play chess? Wouldn't you be able to have an opponent in this way?"

  Shan Shen Zhang Chun held his son in his hand, and instead of putting it on the chessboard, he stroked his beard with the other hand, and instead of answering directly, he said: "I brought him here to visit this time, because I have something to ask for."

   "What's the matter, let's talk about it." Fang Chang looked up at the two and said.

  When the two of them arrived just now, they said that they had something to ask for, but they were addicted to Shanshen chess, so they didn't say anything, but set up a battle with Fang Chang on the chessboard in a hurry.

  Now, after a few games of chess, Zhang Shanshen told Fang Zhang what he had done:

   "This child is alone now. After the transformation, he wants to go down the mountain to travel in the world and find the way to practice later. But he has never traveled far, so he came to me and asked me to find a way to send him down the mountain."

"After thinking about it, among the familiar people, only Mr. Fang goes down the mountain most often and is familiar with human affairs, so I want to ask Mr. to take Hu Yun down for a while, find a simple job for him, and let him live in Huangchen by himself. A few years in the world."

   "As for the path that this little fox will follow, he can only find it by himself, and it is difficult for others to help him."

   This is not difficult, Fang Chang nodded in response:

   "No problem, just take Hu Yun with me when I go down the mountain next time."

  Beside him, Hu Yun put down the teapot, turned around, and thanked Fang Chang.

  Fang Chang looked at Hu Yun's transformed form.

  Semi-old boy, dressed in orange-red cloth, with a square face and broad forehead, in line with the aesthetics of ordinary people, and very clean and neat.

  Furthermore, looking closely, this Hu Yun has very good cultivation aptitude, and he has a deep sense of immortality, so he is very suitable for this path of cultivation. And this little fox demon has a lot of fate with him, but it's a pity that it's not the fate of master and apprentice.

  The master-student relationship between him and Hu Feng is nothing, not as strong as the relationship between him and Liu A Niu, who is not far away from Shihuan, who is basking in the sun with his feet up in the sky.

  Beside Zhang Chun said with a smile:

   "It's Hu Yun's luck to be able to go down the mountain with Mr. Fang. But because of this, I didn't teach him how to play chess. If he wants to go down the mountain, he won't be able to play chess with me in the future."

  Fang Chang said: "There are many other monsters in the mountains who have transformed into shapes, right? Zhang Shanshen can go and find them."

  Zhang Shanshen shook his head:

   "In fact, there are very few. Although there are many spirits and monsters in the Yunzhong Mountain, but opening spirits, refining horizontal bones, and transforming shapes, each of them is a huge hurdle. There is no one in a million who can practice smoothly like Hu Yun."

   "Like Hu Feng who has passed away, he has hundreds of descendants, only Hu Yun is enlightened. It's a pity that my old friend couldn't see his grandson's transformation with his own eyes."

"However, Mr. Fang's words reminded me that there are indeed a few incarnations in Yunzhong Mountain. I will look for them in a few days and teach them how to play chess. In this way, when you go down the mountain again, Mr. players."

   After finishing speaking, he lightly pressed the chess piece in his hand on the intersection of longitude and latitude.

  The mountain wind blew by, and the ginkgo tree that had just sprouted green buds next to it made a slight rattling sound when the branches touched each other.

  The sun rose high, dispelling some of the mist in the mountains, allowing Daiyuan Mountain and the vast plain below the mountain to appear in the sight of the three of them like a curtain unfolding.

  Whether it is in the mountains or at the bottom of the mountains, plants are sprouting in the spring breeze, and the world is getting greener.

  The mountain **** looked at this beautiful scenery and was a little immersed in it for a while. After a while, he took a long breath and praised from the bottom of his heart:

   "Mr. Fang's immortal cliff is really a good place."

  Hearing Zhang Chun's compliment from the opposite side, Fang Chang just smiled, and then put down the chess pieces in his hand to conclude the game. Both of them are extraordinary, and they don't need to be counted by others, they just look down and know the number of the two sides, and know the outcome.

  Fang Chang smiled and said: "This round was won by the next."

  Zhang Shanshen: "Come again."

The tea in the pot was already cold, so Fang Chang asked Hu Yun to go to his own room and bring his bamboo box containing nuts as a snack for recreation. They then rearranged the chess pieces on the table, put them into their small baskets according to black and white, and prepared new ones. One round.

   "Mr. Fang, have you noticed anything related to this catastrophe during your trip to Zhongshan?"

  At the middle of the round, the mountain **** asked Fang Chang about the news of the catastrophe.

  Hearing this question, Fang Chang looked at the chessboard and answered:

   "There are indeed gains. Originally, I guessed that this catastrophe would be caused by civil strife in the world, or it might be related to the kind of ghosts I encountered before, who couldn't communicate and didn't know their origins, but the result was neither."

"This catastrophe must be related to the demon clan. It seems that one or more demon clan forces are integrating the world's spirits and lurking in the human world. Moreover, they also sent beautiful goblins to enter the back houses of the state capitals to charm the chief officials and install them. Working carefully, gathering food and recruiting troops, I don’t know what I’m planning.”

"Although the prestige of this plan is not great, and who is behind it has not been revealed, it has become a trend, and it is very difficult for practitioners like us. Moreover, the situation in the world is too uncertain, life and death are at stake, and it will not be easy for all parties to come here. end."

  The mountain **** gently threw a chess piece back into the chess basket, and sighed:

"Sigh... I have also communicated with my colleagues and friends around me recently. They know even less. They only know that the catastrophe has arrived and the world is gradually in chaos. Peaceful scene."

  He was full of worries, and the two were silent to each other.

   After a while, he calmed down, grabbed the chess pieces again, and placed them on the chessboard.

  Fang Chang asked: "How is it in the mountains recently?"

   "It's not bad." Zhang Shanshen said: "Even my small mountain temple has some reputation among passers-by on the official road, and there are often incense offerings. It is much better than before."

  Fang Chang looked up, and Zhang Chun opposite him was really red and full of energy.

   It is indeed full of incense.

   Thank you SSWG for your reward.
