Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 7: Venture investment

　　 Xia Fan woke up when the sun shone into the window the next morning.

　　 Without the bumps of the carriage or the disturbing mosquitoes, he slept very sweetly this time, and the fatigue caused by the previous rushing all the way was gone.

　　 Even the fox demon that appeared last night is like a dream——

　　 Wait!

　　 Xia Fan jumped off the bed, jumped onto the old wooden table, and looked out the window with the probe.

　　 Then he couldn't help but cocked the corners of his mouth.

　　 I saw that the plate on the windowsill was empty.

　　 It doesn't seem to be my own illusion.

　　Since the braised beef is taken away, does that mean that the other party has accepted the agreement?

　　He suddenly looked forward to tonight.

　　 put on the outer robe and went to the well in the backyard to wash briefly, Xia Fan came to the lobby and asked for a steamed wotou for two silver.

　　 I can’t blame him for not saving. Since he was able to get breathed and enlightened, his appetite has become much bigger. I didn't see how long my body was, but the food I ate had turned over several times. As long as the meal is not full, the body function and the efficiency of entraining air will be significantly reduced.

　　 This is the same for other alchemists.

　　 Xia Fan attributed it to the fact that conservation of energy is always expressed in strange ways in some places.

　　 "Good morning, Brother Xia!"

　　 someone suddenly shouted behind him.

　　 Even if he doesn't look back, he can still hear who the other person is.

　　Sure enough, Wei Wushuang's familiar face quickly appeared in front of him, "Do you mind if I sit next to you?"

　　 "It's okay." Xia Fan blinked, and it seemed that this fellow villager didn't take his behavior of stealing beef into his heart.

　　 put down with him, there is a large breakfast, in addition to Kaiwotou, rice porridge, tofu brain and pancakes are also everything.

　　 Xia Fan knows how the other party's slightly fat figure came into being-in terms of the consumption of alchemists, it is really not that easy to get fat.

　　 "Brother Xia, you're right, I thought about it all night and decided." Wei Wushuang didn't start eating right away, but said seriously.

　　 "What did you decide?"

　　 "The office of the Privy Council... is not suitable for me." He paused, "I'm not saying that it is not good for the people to kill the people and protect the people. It's just that the thought of facing a terrible evil monster, I even I can’t eat anything..."

　　 "Huh???" Xia Fan glanced at the rich breakfast on the table... Then what is this?

　　"It’s only my father’s persecution to refer to. I didn’t make the corresponding awareness. Even if I passed the exam, I wouldn’t end up doing any better. So I planned to stay in a teahouse or hotel during the exam. Until the end of the assessment." At the end, Wei Wushuang's tone became more and more brisk, "You don't have to fight with people, and you don't have to run to dig ghost fire graves late at night. As long as you stick to the last day, you will be able to explain to your father after returning. . Of course, without your awakening from Brother Xia, I couldn’t make up my mind so quickly, even if I was regarded as a coward by Xiongtai, I would like to say thank you in person—"

　　 "Coward? I haven't said that." Xia Fan interrupted with a smile, "On the contrary, your courage is not small anymore."

　　 "Brother Xia don't have to comfort me..."

　　"It’s not a comfort. In my opinion, the courage needed to be honest with oneself is no less than confronting evil. Withdrawal has nothing to do with courage. It is nothing more than being a rich family compared to the low-level alchemist in a remote place. The son is more promising."

　　Wei Wushuang stared at him for a long time before chuckling. "To be honest, there are not many people who think like you. Once hired by the Privy Council, no matter how young the alchemist is, he is an official, and the businessman is a businessman. But I But I feel that what you said is not without reason."

　　 As if letting go, he picked up the pancake and took a bite. "Brother Xia, if you haven't taken the exam, come to the big bowl food shop to find me. I said I would treat you to a good meal. "

　　 Xia Fan rolled his eyes, "Should you not wish me smooth sailing at this time?"

　　 "I also think, but this assessment is far from being as simple as it seems." Wei Wuhe said while eating, "Yesterday someone asked about the situation in Qingshan Town--this place does have wildfires, but The scale is pitiful. According to common sense, if you want hundreds of candidates to collect a whole bottle of spiritual fire, at least a mass grave is needed. However, I heard people say that there are dozens of graves scattered in that place. Package."

　　 "This is too little..." Xia Fan said in surprise.

　　 "Indeed, even if there is a fire in every tomb, it is only enough for hundreds of years. If this continues, conflict will be inevitable." The fellow sighed, "Maybe this is the examiner's original intention, not to fight with others. Last time, I don’t want to get the qualifications. It’s just that it’s too unfair for the disciples who are not aristocratic..."

　　"In addition, the seven days of food and accommodation expenses are also a limitation. Although I think Xiongtai has already seen this, you only have half of the funds of others at the beginning. It is not limited by your ability. Don't force yourself."

　　 "Indeed." Xia Fan said frankly, "I originally planned to use three days to solve the problem, but now it is not safe to look at three days. If you find the news is correct, this battle is likely to continue until The last minute of the exam."

　　 "It's a pity that I can't help you further."

　　 Wei Wushuang didn’t mean to conceal or evade. After all, the relationship between the two was still shallow. The other thanked the other person. He took the risk of living in the wild and saved the money for Xia Fan to complete the exam. This kind of harm to himself and others. Impossible to do it.

　　 "It doesn't matter, your willingness to share information with me is enough in return." And that portion of braised beef, Xia Fanxin said. "If yesterday, I really had nothing to do, but today it would not be hopeless."

　　 "Do you have a way to raise money?" The other party asked in surprise.

　　 "Probably." Xia Fan nodded, "By the way, did you have a nightmare last night?"

　　 "Nightmare?" Wei Wushuang took a mouthful of tofu brains, "I don't have an impression...I basically don't dream."

　　 Xia Fan's expression froze, and suddenly he felt a little unsure, "Uh, then let me ask you another way. If you had a nightmare and dreamed of a blood-red moon and monsters all over the ground, would you be afraid?"

　　 Wei Wushuang thought for a while, "Of course it will! That's a sight only in purgatory! If I'm in such a scene, I'm afraid I will faint out of fright."

　　 isn't it... so exaggerated? Xia Fan was stunned, "But it was just a dream..."

　　 "Dreams are very important omen." He said seriously, "Although I don't dream too much, but I also know that dreams are extensions of consciousness, especially for people who are inspiring. Don't take the manifestation of dreams lightly. ."

　　 That's how it is... Xia Fan suddenly.

　　 This is a world where consciousness can have an effect on matter, which means that dreams are no longer ordinary deep brain activities. Simply measuring dreams from the degree of fear is equivalent to using past common sense to think about new problems, but It's just to engrave a boat for a sword.

　　"That's good." He smiled relievedly, "I just wanted to try it before, but now that you say so, I think I'm pretty sure."

　　 "Really?" Wei Wushuang put down the pancake in his hand, "Can you show me something? Oh, I don't want to take advantage, but I am very curious--"

　　 Xia Fan pointed behind him, "Come with me. While it is still early."

　　……

　　 Qingshan Town, in front of the suspension bridge connecting the inside and outside of the mountain.

　　 Xia Fan waited for a candidate who was carrying a suitcase and walking in a hurry.

　　"Brother, please stay." He stepped forward and arched his hands, "I am the candidate of Fenghua County, Xia Fan."

　　 The other side glanced at him suspiciously, then slowly stopped, "Chu, Youzhou."

　　"Good meeting!" Xia Fan looked back at the suspension bridge behind him, pretending to be regretful, "After crossing this bridge, the exam will be a failure."

　　 probably mentioned the pain point, and the other person's expression was obviously a little unhappy, "What does this have to do with you?"

　　 "I don't want to laugh at you, nor do I want to ask why you left." Xia Fan said in a gentle tone, "The reason why I am waiting here is just to make a bond with you."

　　 "Say something straight."

　　"I hope you can lend me the unused money to help me."

　　"Are you crazy?" The man asked in disbelief, "Why should I help you?"

　　 "If I can pass the exam, I will return it ten times in the future." Xia Fan ignored the irony in his words, as if he hadn't heard it, "Even if I fail, I will pay back the borrowed part. I don’t know what you think about using this IOU as a voucher?"

　　 After saying that, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket--this kind of palm-sized paper was used to make talisman, and now he has written it as an IOU.

　　 The other party looked at him for a moment, and then laughed out loud, "You think you are a genius of the Luo family. If it can pass—heh, what do you use to guarantee this?"

　　"The passing rate of the exam is not low."

　　 "It's not your turn, get out!"

　　 Xia Fan turned sideways and made a please gesture.

　　The candidate surnamed Chu glared at him, and walked on the suspension bridge without looking back, "Since I happened to happen, I also warn you that this place is not quite right. It is better to leave early to avoid losing the two brushes. Killed!"

　　 "Uh... Brother Xia, is your method referring to this?" Seeing him walking away, Wei Wushuang appeared from behind the hidden tree and asked with a strange expression on his face.

　　 "That's right." Xia Fan didn't change his expression.

　　 "Borrowing money in Qingshan Town... I am afraid it is a bit difficult."

　　"This is not "borrowing money." He squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, "You continue to hide, someone is coming again!" "

　　 Wei Wushuang had to shrink back.

　　The second and third candidates are still the same~IndoMTL.com~ but the fourth one has a different situation.

　　 He took away Xia Fan's IOU and handed over fifty taels of silver to the latter.

　　 followed by the seventh and tenth.

　　 Wei Wushuang, who was observing all this secretly behind the tree, was stunned. He didn't quite understand why someone would lend Xia Fan money only on one side. What is even more unclear is that Xia Fan was able to wait for so many people who gave up the exam at the entrance of the suspension bridge until the next day of the exam!

　　How did he know that these people were leaving Qingshan Town? ?

　　 until the thirty-sixth person, the situation changed again.

　　 "Sorry, you're late." The man spread his hands, "The Fei family bought my money, medicine packet, and paper. Now I have nothing except two sets of clothes."

　　 "Buy? What do they use?"

　　 "Gold." The other party bluntly said, "They said, as long as I give the voucher to the servant waiting outside the town, I can immediately get the same amount of gold leaf."

　　 "Really? Then I wish you a smooth return."

　　 After bidding farewell to this person, Xia Fan shouted at Wei Wushuang’s position, "Come out, we can go back to town."

　　 "Don't wait any longer?" The latter asked, poking out his head.

　　 "Well, it doesn't make sense to wait any longer. The candidates who will cross the bridge next are probably as penniless as that person." Xia Fan raised his head and looked at the sky, "There will be a reaction within an hour. Huh... you deserve to be a disciple of the aristocratic family."

　　 "I don't understand." Wei Wushuang ran over and couldn't wait.

　　 He happily tipped the heavy money bag in his hand. "You can ask."

　　 "You said this is not borrowing money, what is that?"

　　"This..." Xia Fan smiled slightly, "This is called venture capital."
