Chapter 378: Suspicious Traces
Coming back from the lake, Xiangzi seemed extremely excited, wandering leisurely around the courtyard, while watching Shuzhen pluck chicken feathers, and humming a northern tune in his mouth. Shuzhen hadn't seen Shoko so relaxed for a long time, and because of his infection, she felt an inexplicable lightness in her body and mind.
Seeing that Xiangzi always glanced at herself, there seemed to be a smug smile on the corner of her mouth. Shuzhen smiled and said, "I'm thinking about what good things are going on, look at how beautiful you look." ”
Xiangzi smiled evilly, glanced at Shuzhen with a sly look, and muttered: "I'm thinking about you man, if that thing can make meritorious contributions, maybe he can still leave him alive." When the time comes......" said Shoko's body and quietly took a few steps back.
Sure enough, as Xiangzi expected, as soon as he withdrew a few steps, he saw Shuzhen suddenly turn around, grab a handful of scalded chicken feathers and sprinkle it towards Xiangzi. Seeing that he was already hiding in the distance and smirking at his own Lai, Shuzhen pretended to be displeased and shouted: "I don't have a man!" There is only one nasty ghost who has no conscience. ”
Xiangzi grinned and said, "Talking to you, are you really willing to splash dirty water on me?" ”
Without waiting for Shuzhen to speak, Juanzi laughed and shouted before she went out on her hind feet: "Who eats the bear's heart and leopard gall and dares to splash dirty water on the big section chief?" ”
Shuzhen smiled and said nothing, and Xiangzi deliberately muttered with a straight face: "Who dares except the Snitch." ”
Juanzi smiled, glanced at Xiangzi softly, and deliberately said in a pretentious tone: "It's you who provoke others, right?" If you don't beat your skin for three days, it's itchy. He said. Secretly gave Shuzhen a look. So, the two women pounced on Shoko like a hunting lioness, and in an instant, the raindrop-like fists fell on Shoko's body with extreme enthusiasm.
At first, Shoko pretended to be frightened and dodged left and right, but then simply raised her arms and enjoyed a unique massage. However, just when Shoko was comfortably fluttering, the sudden itch from his armpits made him jump and howl as if he was stepping on a coal.
was frolicking to himself, and saw Maimaiti holding a golden grinning cantaloupe in his hand and walking in with a smile. Juanzi stretched out her tongue in embarrassment, hurriedly said hello, and picked up the chicken in the soup pot with Shuzhen muttering and laughing.
Maimaiti shook his head with a smile at the red-faced Shoko, and said with a look of envy and appreciation: "Oh, you are really the jealousy that makes me envious, they will make you- hmm!" As he spoke, he clenched his fists and made a strong motion.
Anarhan was frolicking with the tiger, and when he heard his father talking, he flew out like a little swallow. Affectionately rubbed on his father's shoulder, took the cantaloupe in his father's hand, and happily floated into the house.
After eating a large plate of fragrant chicken, Xiangzi glanced at everyone softly, and said energetically: "Ming'er, we can't appear by the lake in groups anymore, the sloppy thief is very scared, for fear of arousing his suspicion." You are all waiting for news at home, and Anarhan and I will disguise ourselves as sheep herders and walk around the lake. ”
As he spoke, he glanced at his tiger who was stunned and continued: "It just so happens that the diving suit transferred from the southern army in the bureau has also arrived, and I have people send it to the base overnight, and it is estimated that it will be there before dawn." You have to rush to the fork of the lake before dawn to hide, and when the target appears, you will immediately dive into the water and follow it secretly, and you must not reveal your identity until you have to, this is our last chance. ”
Seeing that Xiangzi's expression gradually became solemn, Huzi smiled happily and said: "Mo Mada, these days, we have turned all the ditches and forks in the lake, as long as that goods appear, they will not escape our sight." ”
Anar's face warmed up, so she looked at him hesitantly, pouted and said, "What is a wetsuit?" Can I wear it? ”
Looking at Anarhan's innocent appearance, Xiangzi glanced at her lovingly, and said warmly: "The wetsuit is a kind of impermeable clothing, and you won't feel too cold when you wear it." As he spoke, he winked at her playfully, pretending to be a Uyghur in the Han dialect and said: "The balangzi (child) who herds sheep can't wear it, otherwise it will be roasted by the sun." Xiangzi pretended to be in tune, and everyone immediately burst into laughter.
Anarhan sighed lightly as if helplessly, then shrugged his shoulders comically, and said with a look of disberence: "But the sheep herding Balangzi also wants to go to the lake to bathe?" ”
As if he was acting, Xiangzi waved his hand leisurely and said, "Oh, don't buy the way, don't buy the way (no), the sheep herding Balangzi is happy in the water, and the sheep will be driven away by wolves." As he spoke, he shrugged his shoulders, following Anaerhan's example. Suddenly, everyone laughed happily.
Analhan shook his head a little dejectedly, and suddenly perked up and said, "Isn't there still a big one who herds sheep?" As he spoke, he looked at Shoko with a sly look.
Xiangzi was slightly stunned for a moment, then shrugged his shoulders and said, "The big man who herds the sheep will be driven away by the wolves." ”
Analhan pouted and smiled, "I don't believe it." You're so good at scaring the wolf away. ”
Shuzhen put her arms around Anarhan's shoulders distressedly, and said with a smile: "Be obedient, the girl doll can't go into the water again, there are adults in this operation, so we don't have to worry about it." ”
Today's sun seems to be deliberately taking care of the sailors' hard work, and it shines on the lake early.
Zhang Liang and Xu Ming skillfully put on their special diving suits, and helped Huzi tidy up, and then rowed the boat quietly into the dense reeds. Not only does the water not touch the body, but even the crazy mosquitoes are anxiously scurrying around, constantly trying to find a place where they can taste blood. However, after working in a hurry for a long time, he refused to leave easily despite his futile efforts, and he was happy to eat and laugh.
At noon, the walkie-talkie on the boat suddenly rang, saying that the two fishermen from yesterday had gone into the water from the south bank. Huzi immediately took out his binoculars and looked at the lake for a while, and a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said, "Come here, it's still the direction of yesterday, ready to go into the water." ”
As a result, the three black figures inserted sharp blades and inhalation reeds into their waists, and quietly stuck to the black-brown reed roots.
As the boat approached, the net-caster at the bow of the boat casually threw the half-open nets into the lake, and his eyes scanned the surroundings like a wild dog smelling meat, and his eyes were shining with green light.
After a few rounds, the man circled back as if he was deliberately hiding his target. The sheep herders on the slope of the north bank, hiding behind a cluster of red willows, looked at the lake intentionally or unintentionally, and the little Balang behind the sheep showed a very unenthusiastic look, shaking the sheep whip in his hand, and his thin body was also aggrieved into a weak bean sprout.
Although the fishermen kept casting their nets and collecting them, they caught very few fish. The whole morning was around a few forks of the lake, and it was like a ghost. Calm and vigilant, as if the amount of fish caught has nothing to do with him.
The sun has turned west, and the tiger's underwater body seems to be chirping faintly. He secretly chewed off two white and tender reed roots, cursed in his heart an unspeakable swear word, and half-hid his face in the water.
A pair of wild ducks floated leisurely from the tiger's side, and when they almost collided with the tiger's head and face, they flew up in panic, causing a rush of water. Huzi couldn't help but dive his head underwater, and the fisherman seemed to be frightened, and his hand that cast the net froze in mid-air, scanning the surroundings in fear and alertness. When he was sure that there was nothing abnormal, he absentmindedly threw the fishing net into the water, his eyes still scanning back and forth like a searchlight.
The boat circled around a few more times, and finally came to a stop in a narrow cul-de-sac. I saw the people on the boat, their eyes glanced around a few times like lightning, and then hurriedly opened the small cloth bag on the boat, took out a yellow-white cloth strip, and tied it to a tall and sturdy reed pole. He looked around vigilantly for a while, and then rowed unhurriedly towards the center of the lake.
Seeing that the boat was gradually moving away, Huzi secretly sent a signal to Zhang Liang and Xu Ming, and dived into the water together. After searching around the mark for several weeks, he didn't find anything abnormal, and when he saw that the boat was already close to the south bank, Huzi poked his head out and said with a puzzled expression: "What the hell is this guy doing, coaxing us to wander around for a long time, and he ran away again without even pulling." ”
Zhang Liang also muttered suspiciously: "Looking at his absent-minded appearance, it doesn't look like he is specifically for fishing, he ties strips of cloth to remember the route." When we fish in our hometown, we will make a mark if we encounter an unfamiliar river fork so as not to get lost. ”
Huzi hesitated enough to reach the strip of cloth, and it was still half a person high. So, I carefully climbed up the reed roots, looked carefully at the strips of cloth, and found nothing wrong. After hesitating for a moment, he gently pulled off a small piece of cloth and put it on his nose and smelled it. He took a dry reed pipe, carefully stuffed the strip of cloth into it, and swam towards the boat hidden in the reeds.
