Humans in All Heavens: Starting with Detective Dee

It is said that Di Chun has a strong reasoning ability and was greatly influenced by Di Renjie.

But in Huan Bin's view, it was utterly ridiculous; he was nothing more than a fool.

With his performance, didn't he manage to fool Di Chun completely?

Di Chun really thought he wanted to hear Di Renjie's teachings, and actually told him some of Di Renjie's habits when handling cases.

This includes things related to interpersonal relationships and conduct.

After listening to Huan Bin's words, Xiao Qingfang nodded with a satisfied smile: "Good, very good."

I think it's almost time.

Huan Bin, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. All my efforts to help you rise to the position of General of the Thousand Bull Guard were worthwhile.

Seeing this, Huan Bin quickly put away his smug smile and bowed to Xiao Qingfang, saying, "It's all thanks to your strategic planning, elder sister."

With the backing of the General of the Thousand Bull Guards, Di Chun naturally had no doubts whatsoever.

"Hmm." Xiao Qingfang nodded and looked at the spirit shadow beside her.

The shadow remained the same as always, standing tall with an air of self-importance.

Only when he looked at Xiao Qingfang did the arrogance in his eyes lessen somewhat.

"Shadow, Huan Bin has completed his mission."

I'll figure out a way to capture Di Chun and bring him to the manor.

Now it's your turn to perform.

Disguised as Di Chun, he infiltrated Di Renjie's inner circle.

Di Renjie, that old fox, is not easy to deal with.

Several years ago in Youzhou, it was he who saw through Hu Jinghui's identity, ultimately causing Youzhou to fail at the last minute.

Therefore, once you are by Di Renjie's side, you must be extra careful.

Remember not to be discovered by Di Renjie.

Otherwise, our plan will be in trouble.

Xiao Qingfang looked at the shadow and kept giving instructions.

"Hmph, don't worry, big sister. When have I ever made a mistake?"

Di Chun is nothing more than a mere character; I guarantee I'll portray him perfectly so that Di Renjie won't find out.

When Hu Jinghui was first discovered, it was only because he was a good-for-nothing.

"I won't make the same mistake he did," Shadow scoffed.

Looking at the shadow like this, Xiao Qingfang had a bit of a headache. This spirit was good in every way.

He was highly skilled in martial arts and extremely loyal to her.

She was a rising star she cultivated after Yuan Tiangang was imprisoned, in order to control the snake spirit.

He is one of the top experts among the Serpent Spirits.

But there's one problem: he's too arrogant, as if he doesn't care about anyone else in the world.

But considering his unwavering loyalty, he still had to use him.

"Don't be careless. Di Renjie's great reputation is not something to be taken lightly." After scolding him, Xiao Qingfang looked at Huan Bin again: "Write down everything about your time with Di Chun, your conversations, and your opinions about him on paper."

"Yes, elder sister." Huan Bin accepted the order.

Xiao Qingfang then looked at the shadow: "After Huan Bin finishes writing, you will spend the rest of your time here in my residence thoroughly researching Di Chun."

Imitate his every word and action, trying not to reveal any flaws.

Seeing that Xiao Qingfang seemed a little angry, Yingzi didn't dare to pretend anymore and quickly cupped her hands and said, "Yes, don't worry, elder sister."

Seeing Yingzi's attitude, Xiao Qingfang finally felt a little relieved.

……

Huan Bin was busy writing about his time with Di Chun, while Yingzi was busy researching Di Chun.

Meanwhile, Di Chun was busy practicing martial arts and learning medicine.

After mastering Di Renjie's medical skills, he began to study the medical skills of others.

Having saved the emperor's life, Di Chun went to the Imperial Hospital to consult with others on medical matters, and naturally no one dared to neglect him.

Three people, there must be my teacher.

Although these imperial physicians were not as skilled as Di Renjie, they still had their merits.

Although Di Renjie was very capable, it was impossible for him to learn all the medical skills in the world.

Other imperial physicians who were able to become imperial physicians naturally possessed one or two unique skills that they could be proud of.

Time flies, and another two months have passed.

Xiao Qingfang seemed to think that the time was about right and it was time to make her move.

So on this day, when Di Chun left the Imperial Hospital after consulting on medical techniques...

They were quickly followed.

"Um?"

As soon as he left the palace and walked down the street, Di Chun realized something was wrong after walking only two blocks.

It seems someone is following me.

"snort."

He has been learning martial arts from Li Yuanfang for more than two years, and with the help of his cheat ability, his martial arts skills have improved rapidly.

In his opinion, the top three masters in the world today should be Ying Wang Yuan Qi, Shan Ling Hui Wen Zhong, and Gua Ling Li Yuan Fang.

Although Li Yuanfang was exceptionally intelligent and had extraordinary martial arts talent, he was still young, being more than ten years younger than the two people mentioned earlier.

It's normal that his martial arts skills are inferior to theirs.

Moreover, those two were quite talented in martial arts.

Since the case of the Bloodstained Eagle ended, Li Yuanfang has overcome his inner turmoil, and his martial arts skills have improved by leaps and bounds.

He quickly closed the distance to the two people in front of him, but was still a hair's breadth behind them.

The difference isn't huge, but there is still a gap.

As for Di Chun himself, he was also making progress at a fast pace, but unfortunately he never encountered a true opponent who could fight him.

His sparring with Li Yuanfang was just that—sparring. Li Yuanfang would never kill him.

Di Chun always felt that his martial arts skills were lacking something. According to Li Yuanfang, it was because he had never experienced a life-or-death battle.

The martial arts are too rigid and formulaic, too inflexible, with too many thoughts running through the mind and the moves too inflexible.

They haven't reached the level of fluidity, freedom from rigid rules, and spontaneity.

This is not something that can be achieved through hard training or sparring; one must go through life-or-death battles to continuously hone one's skills.

According to Li Yuanfang himself, he served in Liangzhou after completing his apprenticeship.

It was through fighting the Turks and constantly battling on the battlefield that his fighting style gradually became more refined.

On the battlefield, swords have no eyes; an arrow could come from anywhere, and enemies could be everywhere.

If you're not careful, you could be stabbed to death.

You must be highly focused. A good martial art is one that can kill the enemy. In that situation, your primary goal should be to kill the enemy immediately.

There was no time to think about using the first move first and then the second.

Use whichever move you're comfortable with.

However, although his martial arts skills are too refined, his stats are quite high, according to Li Yuanfang's prediction.

Unless he encounters one of the top three masters in the world, no one can kill him in a one-on-one fight.

As for the other masters, at most they could take advantage of Di Chun's overly contrived moves and use their superior skills to suppress and defeat him in the short term.

But there's absolutely no way to kill him.

With Di Chun's martial arts skills, he could definitely escape unless he encountered one of the top three martial artists in the world.

Therefore, Di Chun did not pay attention to the fact that someone was following him.

He's one of the top three in the world, so Li Yuanfang wouldn't dare to attack him; Yuan Qi is still in Yangzhou.

As for the discord between Hui Wenzhong and Xiao Qingfang, it's unlikely that the other party would directly attack him from the beginning, right?
