Meng Yanglong said on a whim: "By the way, do you like fishing?"

"I know a little bit about it. ”

"Let's go, follow me fishing. Meng Yanglong immediately stood up and called the staff to arrange it.

Immediately, the fishing gear was ready, and at the back of the Friendship Palace there was a small lake stocked with some food fish.

Followed by the guards, Meng Yanglong took Cang Hao to the lake.

The duty of these guards is actually to monitor Cang Hao, and at this time, they may have one more function, which is to also monitor Meng Yanglong.

However, Meng Yanglong didn't care about this, took out a ball of soft fish food, broke it into small pieces, and kept throwing it into a nearby water surface.

After the fish food sank into the lake, it disappeared, I don't know what the ingredients of these fish food are, I think it was made by Meng Yanglong, Cang Hao felt very strange about Meng Yanglong's behavior: "Isn't the bait supposed to be placed on the hook?"

"You don't understand this, in northern dialect, this feeding nest. Meng Yanglong's movements are very skillful, and he keeps speeding up the feeding speed: "Fishing should choose a place, but even if people who don't understand choose the right place, if they throw the hook down directly, the chance of the fish being hooked is not too great." So before you hook it, you should feed some fish favorite things to lure fish to eat, so that slowly the fish are lured one by one, and the number of them is more than a nest, and they eat around your hook, so that you have a lot of opportunities to catch fish, this is feeding the nest, the professional term is called lure fishing. ”

"Got it, it's kind of like a trap, but it's not. Cang Hao smiled thoughtfully: "The key is to let as many fish as possible be fooled!"

Meng Yanglong also smiled: "That's right." ”

The two of them were talking, and a drizzle fell from the sky, but it didn't feel uncomfortable.

The rain was indeed very thin, and for a while, a thin veil seemed to float on the surface of the lake, making a qiē seem so hazy and poetic.

Meng Yanglong took a long breath and recited abruptly: "Bamboo canes and mango shoes are lighter than horses, who is afraid, a cloud of smoke and rain will be lifed." ”

This sentence comes from Su Shi's "Fixing the Storm", but it accurately reflects Meng Yanglong's state of mind at this time, and in this picturesque drizzle, his face has also become blurred.

Cang Hao casually threw the hook out and asked casually, "You feel very lost?"

"If you want to say that you are not disappointed at all, it must be a lie, but if you think about it......" Meng Yanglong laughed and said with great emotion: "I have been too tired all these years, and from now on I will be in love with the mountains and rivers, just eating tea, drinking and fishing every day, wouldn't it be nice to be an idler?"

Cang Hao did not answer, but said: "Those who have attained the love of life do not do what they can do in life." Those who have reached the love of life are helpless if they don't know what to do. ”

"Who said that?"

"Zhuangzi. ”

Meng Yanglong was very interested: "Explain." ”

This means that people who know the truth of life will not do the helpless things in life, and they will not understand the things that make them helpless. Shrugging his shoulders, Cang Hao said again: "This sentence is quite famous, but it has been misinterpreted by Yu Dan, and 'what is helpless if you don't know' is often said to be 'helpless if you don't do your life'." ”

"That makes sense. ”

"It's really reasonable, but ......" Cang Hao's words changed: "I'm not talking about you." ”

"Who is that?" Meng Yanglong looked around curiously: "There is no one else here!"

Cang Hao smiled deeply: "I'm talking about myself!"

Meng Yanglong was a little strange: "How do you say it?"

"No matter how glorious I was in the past, I am now just a cloth, and I sometimes wonder if I should be involved in these things, to understand the secrets of history. Shaking his head, Cang Hao said very helplessly: "Just like the No. 7 prisoner, in fact, I don't need to know about his past at all. ”

"Do you regret it?"

After hesitating for a moment, Cang Hao suddenly said firmly: "I can't talk about regret, I never regret trying to make this world better, for me, there are too many really helpless facts in life." I used to watch my comrades die but couldn't save them, and then I stopped doing helpless things and gave them a bullet to end their suffering......"

"It sounds cruel, but on the battlefield......" Meng Yanglong smiled bitterly: "It's the only way to do it." ”

"And ......" Originally, Cang Hao's expression was very emotional, but when he said this, he was awe-inspiring: "I just mentioned the story of Prisoner No. 7, in fact, I shouldn't have listened to it at all." As a result, I was deceived but helpless, but if I hadn't heard of it, maybe I wouldn't have been deceived at all, Zhuangzi Cheng didn't deceive me. ”

"You...... I seem to know something recently?" Meng Yanglong looked at Cang Hao deeply: "Let's hear it." ”

"Aurora called me a phone call......" Cang Hao recounted the contents of the call in detail, and then said to Meng Yanglong: "In the past, I hoped that he was just an ordinary embezzler, but now it has been proved that he actually has a very long-term plan. ”

Meng Yanglong really didn't know about this call, he originally planned to eavesdrop on Cang Hao's call, but Cang Hao's mobile phone didn't leave his body at all, and he couldn't find a chance to install a bugging device.

Of course, Cang Hao's network is monitored, but Cang Hao's contact with his brothers is all in code, and he doesn't know what he's talking about.

However, Meng Yanglong was not particularly surprised when he heard this, because Cang Hao had already speculated before, and Aurora's phone call only confirmed the speculation: "It turns out that they are the real opponents." ”

Cang Hao smiled slyly: "Since you have resigned, why do you care about this?"

Meng Yanglong asked rhetorically: "As a retired mercenary, you are still willing to change this world, why can't I?"

"Yes, that's right. Cang Hao nodded vigorously: "This is what I want to say to you!"

Meng Yanglong was stunned: "What do you mean?"

"As I said, I never regretted getting involved in these things, but you shouldn't quit. After a pause, Cang Hao said very seriously: "You can only do more if you stay!"

"Speaking of my resignation...... Meng Yanglong asked a little puzzled: "When I told you, you didn't express any surprise at all." ”

"It's your business, not mine, why am I surprised?"

"Don't forget that I'm your only umbrella. ”

"My umbrella is myself and my brothers, not you, we are just a partnership. Cang Hao's tone was slightly sarcastic: "Didn't I just say that those who have attained the love of life do not do anything to make a living." You can't be my umbrella at all, this is something you can't do, but you want to do it. ”：

"It turns out that your famous sentence is waiting for me here......" Meng Yanglong laughed, and there were some tears in his old eyes: "You're right, in fact, I'm not as capable as I imagined, and I can't do anything at all." ”

That's what I mean, but I don't want to say it too badly, so that's all I can say. Glancing at Meng Yanglong, Cang Hao said meaningfully, "What are your plans next?"

"Didn't I say it, be an idler, but before that......" Meng Yanglong paused, and then said word by word: "What you say will definitely be done, even if you can't do it, I will keep you safe!"

"How to keep it?"

"I ......" smiled helplessly, and Meng Yanglong continued: "I know, as long as you want, you can leave here at any time." But if you do, you won't be able to set foot on this land again in this life, so I want you to wait a little longer. Now that I've resigned, they'll give me one last face anyway and won't hold you accountable for anything. ”

"But what if they don't give you face?"

Meng Yanglong was speechless: "This ......"

"Don't look at me all day long, in fact, I've been secretly observing, I know that at least a company of troops is stationed in this place, but I still have a way to sneak out. And my brothers, if they wish, can just as much break out of the encirclement and make your watchman pay a heavy price. Shaking his head, Cang Hao said again: "I know, you don't want me to do this, and I have always respected your opinion." In that case, I respect it again, I'll wait here for three days, and if no one has released me yet, don't blame me for being rude. ”

"Okay, it's just three days......" Meng Yanglong nodded, and several wrinkles crawled on his face in an instant: "I know that I am really old, I have no public status, and now I am just a civilian, and I really can't do anything." I'm useless, the only thing I can do now is to wait for news with you here. ”

"Thank you for waiting with me, I don't know if I can get out safely in the end, it's just ......" Speaking of this, Cang Hao's tone relaxed: "Actually, you don't have to be so sad at all, you need to adjust your mental state, just like when you first came, so as to help you meet your new job." ”

Meng Yanglong didn't understand: "What new job?"

"Based on what I know about you, and what I've seen around you, I bet they'll ask you back. Cang Hao threw away this sentence, and then he didn't say anything, just concentrated on fishing.

And Meng Yanglong didn't ask anything, he also started fishing, and soon the fish was hooked: "What a big one!"

A few hours passed, Meng Yanglong kept catching fish, but Cang Hao's side was empty.

But Cang Hao was not in a hurry, he just waited patiently there, quite a bit of Jiang Taigong's style of fishing the world with a straight hook, but it seemed that Meng Yanglong was a little impetuous.

At the moment, the waves and clouds are treacherous, and no one can say what happened next, the two of them have their own abacus, maybe the fish on the hook is very revealing.

The Palace of Friendship is not only a place for ties to meet and entertain dignitaries, but also has a secret duty that important people who make mistakes will be imprisoned here before they are brought to justice.

Therefore, the Palace of Friendship has a very thorough prevention system, and there are armed police stationed there, which Cang Hao has observed.

Meng Yanglong hoped that Cang Hao could go out safely, if he couldn't, he was afraid that this place would be a river of blood.

Speaking of which, Meng Yanglong's departure caused a lot of shock to the high-level.

But the high-level people were silent one by one, pretending as if nothing had happened.

As for Liu Shuangsheng and Luo Qingwu, they felt very happy, and Luo Qingwu even told Liu Shuangsheng: "Although the meeting was not very pleasant, our goal was still achieved and we won this battle." ”
