126, Pinyu

I don’t know what they discussed in private, but they didn’t tell others anyway. After both of them came back, Zhuang Mengzhou asked again: “Xiao Tingting, why are you planning to spend this money? Money is useless in Dachishan, you can only spend it outside.”

Tu Zhi replied: "Xiao Tingting and I discussed it and planned to ask her to buy a house first so that she can move her new household registration. It doesn't matter if she can't live there. In short, there is also a property outside, just like before. As for the remaining money, I will buy a safe financial management for the time being."

Shang Ni interrupted, "If you don't live in it normally, you're buying a house to put it in, it would be very suitable for you to be next to District Mayor Zhu's house. It's also a small building with a separate courtyard, and Teacher Ding's house is also there. The current market is about 2.5 million."

Zhuang Mengzhou: "It's more than 250,000, and it's okay!"

Zhu Shanxian: "The current market is more than 2.3 million yuan. But the landlord is in Australia, so I have to contact you first. I came forward and I should be willing to sell it there. After buying it, I need to clean up and it has been a long time since I lived there."

Tu Zhi: "No need to clean up for the time being, I will put it there first and then not stay there. I will take Xiao Tingting to take a look another day."

Zhu Shanxian: "No need to go to dinner another day. If Xiao Tingting is satisfied with her, I will contact the owner."

Zhu Shanxian bought the small building specially back then because the portal of Xiaojing Lake is in the backyard. The last row of small buildings in Nanqi Community was built at the foot of the mountain, and it happened to turn a corner from Zhu Shanxian's house. Therefore, the small building and the two adjacent small buildings were arranged in a shape, and Zhu Shanxian's house stretched out a piece forward. From the second floor of the two small buildings next to it, you can see the movements and stills of the backyard.

Fortunately, Zhu Shanxian used a means to get the small building in the east to Ding Qi, while the small building in the west was empty and no one lived in it, so it was convenient for them to do anything. Now that Wei Fanting wanted to buy another property in Jinghu, Shang Ni proposed to buy the small building. In this way, the area completely became their territory and became more convenient in the future.

In fact, before this, Zhu Shanxian and others were somewhat concerned about Wei Fanting, because Wei Fanting's brother Wei Fanchao died at the hands of everyone. Wei Fanchao was killed by Ye Xing. Xian Hao asked Ye Xing to choose by himself, either take action or withdraw, and Ye Xing chose to kill Wei Fanchao with one knife. This matter, including Fan Yang's death, is a secret that everyone keeps, and will never plan to tell it out again.

Since Shang Ni made this suggestion, no one objected. Let's do this. Wei Fanting is not Wei Fanchao, and she doesn't live there. We need to pay attention to living conditions and cultivation environment. For Wei Fanting, where can we get Da Chi Mountain?

After dinner that day, everyone took Wei Fanting and Tu Zhi to Nanxi Community. The key was in Zhu Shanxian's hands and saw the situation of the small building on the spot. Of course, Wei Fanting was not dissatisfied with it. Besides, the master, all the masters and uncles lived here, and the matter was settled on the spot.

In the next days, what Wei Fanting had to do was to apply for a passport first, then buy a house, and move her household registration from Jiangguan District to Yuling District. After everything was settled, she could practice the secret techniques of the foreign countries in Dachishan, and continue to learn and become familiar with the outside world, so that she could travel all over the world in the future.

Wei Fanting's experience and situation were originally very sympathetic to everyone. But now, she was so enviable! This was also considered her luck, and she happened to meet Ding Qi. There were other people in the world who were not so lucky to meet Ding Qi.

After sending Wei Fanting and Tu Zhi back, everyone ran to Xiaojinghu Villa for tea. Zhuang Mengzhou said, "Teacher Ding, you are not only two disciples such as Wei Fanting and Tu Zhi. Don't you have three students in Jinghu University? If you have achieved success in your cultivation and are suitable for your people, you should officially become a disciple and let them recognize their elders."

Ding Qi: "I'm just planning to do this."

Zhuang Mengzhou: "Have you taught them the secret method outside the country?"

Ding Qi: "I taught it, but I didn't point it out. It's a secret method in the outside world."

Zhuang Mengzhou: "How far have they practiced?"

Ding Qi: "Although I can't go with Wei Fanting, the progress is quite fast. From the Heart Plate Art to the Heart Realm Art, I have almost finished practicing it. I have achieved the realm of observing the body. I gave Bi Xuecheng and Ye Yanxing a stone. The next step is to rely on my mind to sacrifice and refine it at any time. It should not be difficult to break through to the micro realm."

Zhu Shanxian sighed and said, "It's hard to find a successor to the secret technique! My master waited until he was ninety years old, but he had learned a disciple like me and passed on the Qi-seeking technique of My Jue Sect. How long has it been, and his disciples have collected five of them, and they can all be started with their cultivation."

Ding Qi said humbly: "Each person has his own fate, just try his luck."

Tan Hanchuan: "This is not only luck, but also Teacher Ding can see people accurately and teach people well. If he had changed his master, he would never have been able to practice so quickly, and he would even say whether he could get started."

Shang Ni: "Of course, Teacher Ding is the founder of Fangwai's secret technique!"

Zhu Shanxian: "Looking at the students and disciples that Teacher Ding has taken to get started so quickly, I feel like I was a waste at the beginning. When I practiced the Qi-seeking technique, it took me a long time to find some feeling. And those young people have no foundation in cultivation, and they can actually master it so quickly."

Ding Qi: "It's different, it's completely different. If I teach them the Juemen Qi-seeking technique, I guess the cultivation progress will not be as good as Senior Brother Zhu back then. After all, Fangwai's secret technique is not the secret technique of the eight secret technique of the Jianghu Lake. Even I don't have the foundation for practicing since I was a child. I only started to think about it after I met you.

But these children are really good. Wei Fanting won’t talk about it anymore. There is also the one whom I want to practice the Book of the Sect and the Micro-Technique in the future. With the foundation of the secret method of the Fangwei method, it is easy to practice the Micro-Technique in the practice."

Shang Ni lowered her head and stopped talking. Xian Hao asked, "Why did you give Bi Xuecheng and Ye Yanxing a piece of Jingshi, but you didn't give Meng Huiyu? They are both students, so it's not suitable to treat differently, right?"

Ding Qi: "The two stones were left by Fan Yang and Ye Xing. I will clean them up and purify them. Now there is only the last piece left, which is left by A Quan. I want to return them to A Quan if I have the chance in the future. But it doesn't matter. You can pick them up again if you have time, anyway, there are some on the river beach."

Xian Hao: "You don't have to run so far to pick up stones in the mountains. I have one in my hand. Another day, you call all three of them, and I will hand over this stone to Meng Huiyu. Anyway, I have a dry bone knife."

Zhuang Mengzhou suddenly said: "Can you practice Fangwai's secret technique without Fangwai's secret realm?"

Ding Qi smiled bitterly and said, "Of course not. The secret method of Fangwai is created specifically for discovering and exploring the secret realm of Fangwai. The process of cultivation is a process of verification. If there is no secret realm of Fangwai, at most it can only be practiced to their level. I was just about to discuss this matter with you. If they become disciples, which secret realm of Fangwai should they find to verify it?"

Now they have found and can easily enter and exit the outside world, only Dachishan and Xiaojing Lake, and both of them are in Jinghu City. Judging from the location, Dachishan is the most suitable, because its gateway is in the corner of Xiaochishan Park, not far from Dachishan Park.

But Dachi Mountain is not very convenient. First of all, it is in an open public place, facing the Jingyang River. Although there are woods blocking the east, the direction towards the west is completely visible. Occasionally entering and exiting will not attract attention, but a group of people always disappear in that area and appear again, and I am afraid that problems will arise sooner or later.

Moreover, if you can't get into Yin'e Realm, you can go back and forth, and you have to run naked if you don't do it well. How can you do this in the park? If Tu Zhi came to his senses, he would probably have to face this problem, but then Wei Fanting will protect him, but others...

Moreover, Da Chi Mountain is Wei Fanting's home, and there is no one else there. If Wei Fanting went out and was completely empty, he would have the treasure of the ancient Chishan Temple. This is not to doubt Bi Xuecheng and other three people, but it is not good to enter and exit others at will. As long as they know the portal and master the secret methods of the outside world, they cannot be restrained if they want to sneak in.

Will these three students become greedy or have other thoughts? This cannot be said. Before the cultivation or cultivation reaches that level, don’t give such a great test to human nature. The small Jinghu Lake is much more convenient, but there is also this problem. It seems to be just another mountain and river world, but it is also equivalent to an endless treasure, and its value cannot be measured.

People who are still young have not strong enough inner, mind and external abilities. If they get a treasure, they may often harm them, so everyone is still somewhat worried. Zhuang Mengzhou asked slowly, "Teacher Ding, what are you going to do? Since you took the initiative to discuss with us today, you must have a constitution in your heart, right?"

Ding Qi: "You wait a moment, I'll go get something, there is something to discuss with you."

He went out to his small building, brought two A4 printing papers, moved the tea table aside, and then put the two pieces of paper together and said, "I have now confirmed another place in the fifteen prescriptions outside world recorded in Fangwai Tuzhi, and it is very close to Jinghu City, in my hometown Jingyang County. We can go there to explore and bring them too."

Xian Hao frowned and said, "This place has only pictures and incomplete characters. The signs of the pictures are also defective. I don't even know the names of the outside world. How did you determine them?"

Ding Qi: "It's a coincidence that I know this place! It's called Qingaotai, which is less than ten kilometers away from Jingyang County High-speed Railway Station. If we take the high-speed railway from here, the journey will only be half an hour. If we drive by myself, take a section of the expressway and then take a section of the national highway, it will be more than two hours."

As he spoke, Ding Qi took a pen and wrote the three words "Qin Gaotai" on paper.

Shang Ni: "The piano platform is the high platform for ancient people to play the piano?"

Zhuang Mengzhou shook his head and said, "This is not what it means. Qin Gao refers to a person, named Qin Gao Gong."

Ding Qi looked up and said, "Mr. Zhuang, do you know this person?"

Zhuang Mengzhou nodded: "I can't remember if you don't mention it. I have heard of this name, the immortal alchemist of the Han Dynasty. I can't remember which biography I saw it. It is said that the remains of his cave were in Jingyang County. If it were Teacher Ding, he was meticulous, why didn't I think about it?"

Zhu Shanxian pointed to the two pictures and said, "Because there is no name for Qin Gaogong or Qin Gaotai on this side, only the word "high platform" can be identified. Where can I guess this?"

"Fangwai Tu Zhi" records fifteen prescriptions outside the world, nine of which are still identifiable, and the other six are incomplete, including the Qin Gaotai pointed out by Ding Qi. The content of the characters is particularly defective, and only the vague words "Han Chushi... High Platform... Not enough to be full of inches of long dragon scales and silver belly..." can only be barely identified.

The picture has fewer defects. It can be seen that it is a mountain with a rugged and high cliff on the front. Many places have been chiseled flat, with stone carvings. Near the top of the cliff, there is a half-closed entrance to the cave, which is specially circled out by cinnabar notes. There should be a marked place name next to it, but the marked handwriting is defective.

At the lower right of the cave entrance, there is also a cliff carving, rectangular and large-scale handwriting on the surface, so Zhu Jingyi drew it and you can see the four words "Qin Liudan Hall".

Ding Qi explained: "I have been investigating ancient place names for a while, and compared the contents of "Fangwai Tuzhi" to see if I can find anything. When I saw the eight words "The dragon scales are not enough to grow in the sky" that day, I suddenly had an inspiration in my mind, and I remembered a specialty in my hometown..."

There is a river in Ding Qi's hometown called Qinxi, which is also a tributary of the Jingyang River. Qinxi has a specialty called Qinyu. Ding Qi seems to remember that he had read a travel brochure, which used these eight words to introduce Qinyu. After thinking about it, he went to check out the introduction of Qinyu.

In ancient times, a master was a person who was virtuous and talented but did not come out to be an official. For example, when Zhuge Liang was working in Nanyang, he could also be called Zhuge Dushi. In the Han Dynasty, there was a master named Zhao Gao, who was not the Zhao Gao favored by Qin Ershi, but a person with the same name and surname, living in seclusion on the banks of Qinxi, Jingyang.

Zhao Gao lived in seclusion in a cave and often treated the people around him. Everyone respectfully called him Qin Gaogong and called the place where he lived in seclusion Qin Gaotai. Legend has it that when Qin Gaogong was refined, he poured the medicine residue from the furnace into the stream and turned it into countless small fish, which were not enough to grow in size and had a silver belly. This is the origin of Qin Gaogong.

After finding this clue, you can find the remaining pictures and verb records in "Fangwai Tu Zhi", and you can confirm that the prescription recorded on the surface is Qin Gaotai.

After listening to Ding Qi's introduction, everyone said that this was a coincidence, and it could only be said that it was caused by fate. Zhuang Mengzhou suddenly asked: "Is the qin fish delicious? How does the fried little wild fish in Dachishan taste?"

Ding Qi smiled and said, "Mr. Zhuang, qinyu was not a cooking dish in the past. It was a snack in the local area and was mainly used to make tea."

Everyone was surprised and said, "What? Use fish to make tea!"

The pinefish is very small, less than an inch long, and is not suitable for cooking. How many fish should be used for this dish? The local method is to use traditional craftsmanship to make dried fish. The back of this dried fish is golden, but the belly is silver. You can eat it directly as a snack. What’s more special is that you can throw a few dried fish into a cup to brew, just like making tea.

It is said that dried zither fish will turn back into the shape of zither fish and swim in a cup, lifelike and extremely magical. The zither fish tea also tastes very good and has a unique fresh fragrance. After drinking the tea, you can also eat dried zither fish, which has a delicate and crispy texture.

The mountainous areas of Jingyang County are tea production areas, producing various teas such as orchid, fire green, cloud fog, and cloud stalks. However, the "tea" such as dried qinyu is really unique, which has never been heard of before.

After listening to Ding Qi's introduction, Zhuang Mengzhou's eyes lit up: "Teacher Ding, have you eaten dried zither fish and drunk zither fish tea? How does it taste?"

Ding Qi: "I drank it when I was a child. It tastes good and it is very unique."

Shang Ni said on the side: "Mr. Zhuang, your saliva is almost flowing down!"

Zhuang Mengzhou touched his chin and said, "Of course, we need to see such a place, investigate cliff carvings, explore ancient ruins, and more importantly, there is an outside world waiting to be opened, and then try the qin fish."

Ding Qi smiled bitterly and said, "This is probably not easy. Many specialties are famous, but the results are not very good. In the past, there were no fine holes of nylon, nor electric fish, and fish fried tools. It is difficult to catch such a small fish. Some people went to visit relatives and friends in other places and got some dried piano fish as gifts because it was a specialty.

But later it didn't work, and almost extinct the fish. The county government set up a reserve of origin for genus fish, and was not allowed to swim in Qinxi. It was only possible to catch a little while fishing downstream. Some people were secretly fishing, and the output was already very rare. There was no production, no scale, and it was unlikely to be famous, so you have never heard of it.

Now in Jingyang County, there are many restaurants selling cooked zither fish dishes, and specialty stores selling dried zither fish, but most of them are fake, and they are imitated by small wild fish of similar shapes and sizes. Anyway, few people have actually seen zither fish, especially those from other places who cannot see it."

Zhuang Mengzhou: "That's a pity. This thing should be protected!"

Tan Hanchuan: "If Qin Gaotai is also a prescription in the outside world, maybe there are still a lot of them inside. It would be okay to make some dried fish and taste them."

Zhuang Mengzhou nodded and said, "Old Tan's suggestion is very good, let's go!"

Xian Hao interrupted: "Xiaojing Lake has high mountains and deep waters, and there are many springs and lakes. Isn't all kinds of fresh fish enough for Mr. Zhuang? Eat it every day and you'll be tired of it!"

Zhuang Mengzhou said seriously: "How can you get tired of eating a real good thing? Are you tired of eating rice every day?"

Xian Hao: "Can staple foods be the same as side food?"

Shang Ni interrupted again, "What is the deliciousness of rice?"

Tan Hanchuan smiled and explained: "Junior Sister Shang Ni, you misunderstood this. Mr. Zhuang is right! Why can staple food become staple food? This is the result of countless generations of selection and cultivation from ancient times to the present. Its conditions are too harsh.

First, it must first have the nutritional value that is most suitable for human absorption and can ensure sufficient physical strength. In the words of cultivation, it can best replenish vital energy.

The second point is that it must be easy to plant, can be planted in most areas and climatic conditions, and can also ensure sufficient yield.

The third point is more important. From a biological point of view, it is not allergic to almost everyone. Of course, this genetic gene that is allergic to staple food may have been eliminated in a long historical evolution.

Last and most importantly, the staple food must not only meet the three requirements, but also have the most suitable taste for humans. It is also said that it is a delicious food that is not greasy! Perhaps it is too common, and I have become accustomed to eating it every day, so you won’t think about its long historical formation process.”

Zhu Shanxian smiled and said, "Old Tan is worthy of being a scientific researcher. He speaks everything he says, and he has a good reputation."
