Chapter 385: A Pool of Troubled Waters
Fang Shi went home, took a shower, changed his clothes and returned to the hospital, although it was calm on the surface now, but Fang Shi did not dare to take it lightly, no one knew if there would be any sudden changes in the matter, and the current situation was that the initiative was completely in the hands of the other party who was hidden in the dark.
They wanted Huang Qianying's life from the first shot, and they had already caused a death, so it was too naΓ―ve to think that the other party would definitely be restrained.
Fortunately, Fang Shi is not an ordinary person, he can work casually in the hospital, and then he can rest well by practicing handling, not to mention that there are also Xia Yuxin and Lou Jingzhong changing shifts, even if it lasts for a long time until Huang Qianying is discharged from the hospital, there is no problem, and then let Huang Qianying live directly with Xia Yuxin.
When Fang Shi returned to the hospital, Huang Qianying had already fallen asleep, and Fang Shi and Xia Yuxin were talking quietly on the balcony of the ward.
After listening to Fang Shi's story, Xia Yuxin couldn't think of any good way to change the current passive situation, the key is that the other party has a plan and preparation, and has enough time, and has already cut off the clues that may expose their identities, it is indeed difficult to find out the opponent, and the worse situation is that it is not possible to participate in individual forces, what if there are multiple parties involved? Even some people stand by and watch, some people are happy to see it, and some people add fuel to the fire, if not, the possibility of this situation is actually quite large, and even from the words of the monk of Fa Yan, you can see some clues.
"Fang Shi, I think this is a pool of troubled water, and there are constantly people stirring it up, I am afraid it is very difficult to see the truth, and even the truth is not the only one."
Fang Shi smiled bitterly and nodded. Unexpectedly, I wanted to avoid trouble and join Qingcheng Mountain. Trouble, but will still take the initiative to find themselves. What is the reason? Is it because you're so good? If you are too good, you will attract jealousy? People's hearts are like this, and this world is really helpless.
"Yes, a pool of muddy water, bottomless, hehe."
Looking at Fang Shi, who was in a somewhat depressed mood, Xia Yuxin was also a little uncomfortable in her heart, she grew up in the gate sect, this kind of thing has long been commonplace. On the surface, there is harmony between the various sects, and there are even many exchanges between personnel and techniques, but in private, everyone is in a competitive relationship. Drinking and eating on the table is called brothers, and it is normal for the legs to go back and forth on the table floor, as long as you don't tear your face, things are easy to say.
It's just that Fang Shi is a half-way monk, and he may not be used to this kind of practice of one set on the surface and one behind the scenes, compared to Fang Shi's simplicity, Xia Yuxin suddenly felt a little ashamed. It seems that he has become dark, and he is accustomed to these intrigues. Maybe this mentality is also very scary, the master often says that his foundation is unstable, maybe this situation that is easy to be blackened by the environment is a prominent embodiment.
"Fangshi, the rivers and lakes are like this"
Xia Yuxin couldn't go on halfway through what she said, she was a little skeptical, what was the purpose of her saying this? Do you want to make the ashlar also black, and also get accustomed to these behaviors and thoughts that are contrary to the original intention of the monastic? Also turned black and rolling in this pool of muddy waters?
Fang Shi smiled bitterly: "Indeed, the rivers and lakes are like this, so the rivers and lakes make people feel helpless." Although I hate this kind of rivers and lakes, I also know that it is impossible to change this phenomenon by myself, this is human nature. It's just that although the rivers and lakes are a pool of muddy water, it doesn't mean that we must also drink this pool of muddy water. Your master is right, if there is no way to be alone, you should also try to avoid the river water from the well, it seems that the master means to rely on my ability to prevent the river from backfilling? The boss really thinks of me. β
Xia Yuxin's eyes lit up, and a pair of wonderful eyes stared at Fang Shi's face tightly, as if she wanted to find something from his face.
"Why do you look at me like that? Am I not right? β
"Hee-hee, do you feel too good about yourself?"
"Okay, do you think I'm wrong?" Fang Shi asked with a smile.
Xia Yuxin shook her head with a smile: "I don't know what to do, the master has always been like an antelope hanging horns and is difficult to figure out, of course what you said is also possible, but this time, it is not for you to prevent the river from pouring into the well of Qingcheng Mountain, the river water seems to have been recruited by you, hehe"
Fang Shi pursed his lips and said: "No, people are trying to test whether my new embankment can block their impact, do you think, the initiative in this matter is the other party, why am I the target they chose?" The words of the Fa Yan monk are very misleading, and I suspect that I want to fight for Qingcheng Mountain in Pengcheng? Qingcheng mountains and rivers are far away from Pengcheng to fight for territory? Why don't you retake the Rongcheng you have given up first? It is ridiculous to try to seek something else without a foundation. Therefore, they didn't pull me to be a supporting role because they were worried about this, they just thought that I was stupid and suitable for this supporting role, and perhaps, there were some ideas to create conflicts between me and the boss. β
"Perhaps, but are you really stupid? As for the latter question, my master has explained, let me fully support you, and if necessary, you can also send someone to help. β
"Well, the head of the house also told me, but you don't have to send people, it's enough to have you, if you really can't do it, isn't there still an uncle."
Xia Yuxin squinted her eyes and smiled, satisfied with Fang Shi's answer.
"So what do we do next?"
Fang Shi thought for a while and said: "You're right, let's respond to all changes with no change, what we need to do is to protect Huang Qianying's safety and protect Yun'er's custody, other things have nothing to do with us, as for face or something, it's not us who are losing face now, let's wait for Panlongguan to come to the door, today I cleaned up their children, they won't still treat it as if they didn't see it." β
Xia Yuxin thought for a while: "This is a little strange, the people of Panlongguan have always been more belligerent, and this time they are unexpectedly forbearing." β
"Belligerent? Panlongguan is also a Taoist temple, how can it be belligerent? β
"This may have something to do with the local cultural traditions, the folk customs in eastern Guangdong are fierce, especially along the coast, in ancient times, those fishermen went to sea to be fishermen and pirates, you say that the folk customs in those places can be simple?"
"No wonder, today's kid knew that Lu Dao was not an opponent, but he still had to come up and knock to the death, and Zhang Yihong was very forbearing, like a poisonous snake."
"Zhang Yihong's growth environment is different, and his personality may be relatively yin, but this person is not to worry, no, the entire Zhang family is not to worry, the means they can use are very limited, and I don't think they dare to openly oppose us at all."
"Not necessarily, it depends on Panlongguan's thoughts, I think it's strange why Panlongguan didn't take the initiative to contact us? Do they really not care that we put this account on their heads? β
Xia Yuxin smiled: "This is really possible, they may be waiting for us to take the initiative to find them, these big sects are all trying to save face, you can't use common sense to think." β
"Death to save face? I don't believe it, the Damen Sect can exist for hundreds of years, and naturally there is a reason for its existence, and it is unwise to erect a strong enemy for the sake of face! β
Xia Yu blinked his eyes cautiously: "Fang Shi, I said that you feel too good about yourself, but you still don't admit it, is it that my master has held you too high, and you are a little floating?" β
Fang Shi was a little annoyed in his heart, but it was not easy to express it, if he was in an emotion, wouldn't it just prove that Xia Yuxin was right, did he really think too highly of himself?
Wrong! Fang Shi immediately understood what Xia Yuxin wanted to express, his own strength was the most clear, followed by Xia Yuxin and Yun He Daoren, but the others did not know Lu Dao's true strength, so their assessment of themselves was likely to be seriously underestimated.
On the basis of this wrong assessment, it is normal for Panlongguan to misjudge, Panlongguan is a big sect, and there is still a considerable potential in Pengcheng, and it is possible to further become the second major force in Pengcheng, and even climb to the top position in China, the limelight is so strong, and the self-assessment of Panlongguan must not be low.
Therefore, it is understandable for Panlongguan to look at itself with a down-looking mentality. Based on this, even if Zhang Yihong did something to offend Fang Shi, he couldn't put down his head to take the initiative to clarify the misunderstanding, not to mention that Fang Shi still slapped Panlong Guan continuously without giving face.
"You're right, it's true that I'm wrong, I hope Panlongguan will take the initiative to find us, it's really a fate to ask for fish."
Xia Yuxin pursed her lips and smiled: "Maybe there are some possibilities at the beginning, but now it's even more impossible, if you don't care, you can try to let Yang Lao maneuver around it, and it should be feasible for a third party to make peace." β
Fang Shi nodded: "This can indeed reduce some unnecessary troubles, and it may even allow us to get out of this matter as soon as possible, but is it really that easy?" β
Xia Yuxin frowned and thought for a while: "Well, you're right, if it's impossible for them to have no back hand, then what is a back hand?" β
"I don't know, but I think we'll know soon."
Xia Yuxin looked at Fang Shi strangely, could it be that Fang Shi's research on divination has also progressed?
Fang Shi took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and looking at the flashing breathing light of the mobile phone, Xia Yuxin knew that there was information coming in.
"Hehe, sure enough, look, the news came from the scene."
Xia Yuxin looked at the mobile phone screen suspiciously, and there were only two simple lines of words on it: "The Chen family mansion was attacked, and the opponents were two, one was seriously injured and one was slightly injured, and they all escaped." β
Xia Yuxin gritted her silver teeth: "Are these guys going to attack Yun'er?" β
"It's not necessarily Yun'er, whoever is caught is who, they are afraid that they are going to perform, I think soon the clues will point to Panlongguan, and this matter will quickly make a fuss, everyone will be behind the scenes, so the Liangzi of Qingcheng Mountain and Panlongguan is concluded."
Xia Yuxin snorted coldly, and looked at Fang Shi with some concern, but saw Fang Shi smiling indifferently, as if he didn't care about the upcoming turmoil, could it be that he suddenly didn't feel troublesome? (To be continued......)
