Although he didn't know what nonsense he had said ten years ago, at least he learned a few things from Zhao Linger.
He accepted Zhao Linger as his apprentice and told her that they would meet again in the future. Of course, there was no need to say when this future would be.
By the way, I have to mention that I actually taught Zhao Linger some energy-shaping magic. Especially when Zhao Linger happily released arcs of lightning in front of him, Fang Zheng's feelings were so complicated that they were hard to describe... This is completely different from the way we do things.
Aren’t you supposed to learn the Thunder Mantra, Fire Mantra, and Guanyin Mantra?
Forget it, the combination of Chinese and Western styles is also good.
Fang Zheng and Ai Ge had already defeated all the Black Miao people, so Shuiyue Palace was naturally safe. But it was obvious that Fang Zheng's matter was not over yet, because Zhao Linger asked Fang Zheng to take her back to her hometown. What else could Fang Zheng do about this?
He could only agree. After all, he had been here ten years ago, which meant that he must have replayed the plot as planned. Since he had to go through the plot again, Fang Zheng didn't mind going through it again. After all, it was a childhood memory. Although Fang Zheng didn't remember many of the side quests clearly because it had been so long, it would still be good to just go and take a look.
Grandma and other disciples of Shuiyue Palace stayed behind, and didn't seem to plan to join the fun. Fang Zheng had thought about inviting them to go together, but Grandma said that she was old, and that traveling thousands of miles from Miaojiang to here had exhausted her both physically and mentally. Even if she was healthy now, she couldn't afford another long journey at her age.
Fang Zheng could understand this, so he did not force the old man to go with him. Of course, to be on the safe side, he also cast a barrier outside the Shuiyue Palace. Unlike the barrier of the Shuiyue Palace itself, the barrier Fang Zheng cast came from the magic of the main world. It was much more difficult to destroy this barrier than Li Xiaoyao swinging a hammer to smash the statue.
After dealing with the trouble in Shuiyue Palace, Fang Zheng took Aige and Zhao Linger away from Xianling Island and headed for Hangzhou.
After all, there is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. When you come to this world, you naturally have to visit Hangzhou City! After visiting Hangzhou City, visit Suzhou City! Anyway, the time for dog food is unlimited, so it’s okay to take your time.
As for whether to visit Yihongyuan or not...
Silently glancing at the two little girls beside him, Fang Zheng sighed helplessly.
It depends on the situation.
If you want to go to Hangzhou, you must visit West Lake. Fang Zheng is still very interested in the ancient West Lake. Although he had been to Hangzhou before his rebirth, Hangzhou at that time was completely commercially developed, while the current Hangzhou is a pure natural and pollution-free natural scenic spot!
But... Fang Zheng came at a bad time.
"Father, what are those people doing?"
Ai Ge looked at the people who were crawling on the ground and muttering to themselves not far away, and asked curiously, while Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders.
"They are sweeping the graves, worshipping their ancestors and deceased relatives... Now it is Qingming Festival..."
Fang Zheng sighed as he watched everyone lighting incense and scattering paper money in the cemetery. In modern society, tomb sweeping is no longer as pure as it used to be. He still remembers that when he was a child, he had to follow his family to a cemetery far away in the deserted mountains. Not only was the journey long, but it also took a long time. They often set out in the morning and it took two or three hours to get to the cemetery. Then they had to loosen the soil with a shovel, burn incense and paper money, and then place offerings.
By the time all this is done it is almost noon, and then everyone will eat the food they brought and chat, just like they are going out for a picnic, then clean up, and by the time they get home it will be almost afternoon.
Now that I think about it, although tomb sweeping was tiring, it was also quite interesting.
But when I grew up... just thinking about the traffic jams from the cemetery gate to the traffic lights every year is enough to make me shiver. Not to mention that nowadays, cremation is the only thing, and the cemetery is so small, don't expect to turn the soil. It is common to queue for two hours, then sweep the graves for half an hour, and then flee in a hurry as if retreating from the front line.
This is really just a tragic and painful memory.
"Let's go and take a look at West Lake."
Fang Zheng shook his head, putting the tragic and painful memory of tomb sweeping behind him, and continued to speak to the two of them, and Zhao Linger also nodded vigorously.
"Okay, Senior Sister, let's go together. I have never been to Hangzhou before."
"All right."
Facing Zhao Linger's request, Ai Ge didn't say much, just nodded slightly. To be honest, she didn't really like this junior sister. Simply put, in Ai Ge's eyes, except for Fang Zheng, everyone else was no different. Whether it was Zhao Linger or Sajo Ayaka, in Ai Ge's eyes, they were basically no different from passers-by on this street.
But Fang Zheng wanted the two of them to be together for some time, hoping that Zhao Linger's kindness and optimism could infect Ai Ge and change her innate values.
Although Fang Zheng knew very well that this was a very difficult thing to do, how would he know if he didn't try?
Fang Zheng was handsome and unparalleled, and Ai Ge was a beautiful girl with blonde hair and blue eyes, not to mention Zhao Linger. In addition, Fang Zheng and Ai Ge were wearing very strange clothes, so they naturally attracted a lot of attention when they walked on the road. However, the people here were more or less decent. Although some people looked at the three people curiously, there was no scene like the bully in many martial arts novels who stopped the road and molested decent women.
And because Zhao Linger did not suffer the pain of losing her grandmother in the original novel this time, she became much more lively than in the game.
"Master, look, it seems like they're selling something over there."
"You guys go and have a look, I'll just walk around here."
Fang Zheng took a look and found that most of the items sold there were small gadgets, which he had no interest in. However, since Ling'er was interested, he naturally would not stop her.
"We'll meet here in a bit, is that ok?"
"Okay, Master."
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Ling'er nodded vigorously and then pulled Aige's sleeve.
"Senior Sister, let's go..."
"Wait, I'm planning to find a place to finish writing this part of the code..."
But before Ai Ge could finish her words, Zhao Linger pulled her away. Fang Zheng smiled, looked at the two people's backs, and then turned around and walked towards the other side of the West Lake.
"Yeah... but then again, there's really nothing fun to do here, so why not just take a selfie."
However, at this moment, Fang Zheng did not notice that two girls in white and green dresses came on the path not far away.
"Sister, we have been looking all the way here, but we can't find it."
The girl in green reached out and wiped the sweat off her face, while the girl in white smiled.
"Of course it's not that simple. Just take your time and we'll always be able to find it."
"It would be great if we could really find it... Look for it up high... Look for it up high... Ah, sister, look over there!"
At this moment, the girl in green's eyes suddenly lit up, and she quickly pointed at Fang Zheng who was walking towards a pavilion not far away.
"Look, sister, doesn't that guy look like a tall person? Look at the weird clothes he wears, and his figure is also very tall, much taller than the others!"
"oh?"
Seeing Fang Zheng, the girl in white's eyes immediately lit up.
"Sister, why don't we figure out if it's him?"
"OK."
Hearing the words of the girl in green, the girl in white nodded, then she gently waved her hands a few times, then pointed a finger, and the next moment, a golden beam of light shot out from the fingertips of the girl in white and shot towards Fang Zheng.
But at this moment, something happened that was beyond the girl in white's imagination.
The moment the golden beam of light hit Fang Zheng, the girl in white's eyes suddenly became dark, and then the boundless tide of time rushed towards her madly. The scene in front of her instantly became fragmented, and the infinite future and past completely exploded at this moment, which made the girl in white groan in pain. Then she suddenly took a step back and hurriedly interrupted the spell.
"Sister? What's wrong with you?"
Seeing the painful expression of the girl in white, the girl in green asked hurriedly, while the girl in white shook her head.
"I, I don't know either...but..."
As she spoke, the girl in white raised her head and looked forward with lingering fear, but to her surprise, Fang Zheng was no longer there!
How could that be?!
Seeing this, the girls in white were shocked, but at this moment, suddenly, a voice came from behind them.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?!"
