Volume 1 The Years of the Mountain City Chapter 16 The undercurrent is about to rise
And just as Ling Lang was on the bus, thinking wildly, in an ordinary residential building in the south of Yudu City, two people were talking in a low voice. One of them was a middle-aged man in his forties who was semi-bald, and the other looked to be a young man with a big back in his thirties.
"Section Chief Li, I have already inquired clearly, last time I participated in the rescue of people in the General Tower, there was another student, the first high school in the county, who is in the second year of high school, and it seems that his name is Ling Lang. I heard that it is still Section Chief Li, your fellow countryman. And the woman who was looking for a short time has returned to her hometown in Yundian. The middle-aged man reported with a flattering expression on his face.
"The surname is Ling?" "Section Chief Li, a young man with a big back, frowned when he heard this, and asked again. "Aside from this, has there been anything else going on in the city in particular lately?"
"I haven't found this yet, it's nothing more than some fights, petty theft and so on. As for what municipal current affairs, Section Chief Li, you are not interested, it is not worth mentioning. "The middle-aged man works for a tabloid in the county and is an outfield reporter. The newspaper units in the county have small sales, there is little clear soup, there is no oil and water to fish, and life is tight in normal times.
Two months ago, he suddenly ran into the young man surnamed Li in front of him. The other party first showed an identification document, which introduced him as an investigator appointed by the city, and found him to assist in the investigation or something. Naturally, he was not a person who was easily deceived, and after carefully looking at the documents, he found that it was not a fraud, so he had to start helping to run errands and find out the news. Later, I found out that the other party did not treat himself badly, and a valuable message was awarded more than 100 yuan, of course, the news should be very special, and it was best to have something that was passed on by people. In this way, he is much more positive.
Take the news of the martyrdom of the female general Ta from other places this time, he took hundreds of dollars before and after, and he was about to catch up with half a month's salary in his unit, but he didn't understand why he had to investigate so clearly. You have to know the ins and outs of the parties, the middle-aged women who participated in the rescue, and the high school students who don't have any hair on their mouths, and they also have to inquire to the end. But whatever, if you have money, you can take it. I also have professional ethics, so I don't have to tell myself again and again, I want to keep it secret and keep it secret.
"If nothing else, you go first. Seeing that the middle-aged man said that there was no other news, "Section Chief Li" waved his hand and prepared to send off the guests.
"Section Chief Li, do you see the money for this news?" The middle-aged man smiled, but did not leave immediately, and rubbed his right thumb and index finger.
Seeing a 100-denomination banknote handed over by the other party, the middle-aged man did not immediately reach out to borrow it.
"Section Chief Li, for this news, I ran back and forth for two or three days, and I changed two pairs of shoes. Look, don't you give more?" The smile on the middle-aged man's face was even bigger, and he was almost about to bloom.
"Yellow Label, you ....... The young man surnamed Li almost didn't "blow up", and wanted to point at the middle-aged man and scold, but he still suppressed his temper, put down his outstretched hand, took out a hundred-yuan bill from his pocket, and handed it over.
"Thank you, Section Chief Li, that's okay, I'll go first, you're busy, goodbye." The middle-aged man took the money satisfied, clipped the wallet under his armpit, smiled and saluted, pushed the door and went out.
Seeing Huang Biao leave, the expression of the young man surnamed Li immediately sank, his eyes were firm, but he gave people a cold feeling. This is incompatible with the image of being angry in front of the middle-aged man just now.
With a curious person like Huang Biao, he has to use the personality of an ordinary person, a normal government affairs officer, and his identity to deal with it, which is too mysterious, and will only make his gossip mouth uncontrollable one day, and tell what happened everywhere. Although it's nothing to say, he doesn't want to be looked down on by the master, so he does his best to do it, and it's best not to have a trace of flaws.
Like Huang Biao, there are three other people who inquire about the news for him, Yudu County, and the four urban districts in the southeast, northwest and northwest, one each.
From six to eight o'clock in the evening, it is the fixed time for him to receive these four people, and the reception time is fixed, but the time for receiving everyone is not fixed. But it must always be that after 20 minutes of seeing off one person and leaving, the next person will be notified to come in.
Most people wait for 10 minutes in advance, some people will wait for 15 minutes, and if they exceed 15 minutes, people will not stand at the door, but will find something else to do first. So these four people basically don't meet. In fact, it doesn't matter if they meet, even if they know each other, but this is how he Li Xuanliang does things.
The layout of the hometown was finally defeated by natural disasters and fell short. The master said that the location of his hometown is special and there are many secrets, and a powerful person like him can't calculate everything after playing turtle Bu Yizheng all his life. But it doesn't matter, it's just a small test before the big drama.
Xu Fengyan's conduct is not bad, his teacher Chen Liying's prestige is still there, it doesn't matter if he can't be defeated for the time being, he is still young, and the master said that he is optimistic about him, saying that he is an outstanding elite of the Li family's generation. But he also warned him that the most important thing to be able to endure before becoming a big thing is to be able to endure it. Then he, Li Xuanliang, will endure it.
It's just that the master asked him to keep an eye on Yudu County recently, and he couldn't figure it out. Later, the master confessed to him, saying that he calculated that there would be people who formed a breakthrough with his Li Xuanliang's life here, and who it was was naturally not something that could be known by pinching his fingers. It's just that he is especially concerned about Yudu County and the surrounding villages and towns, if something special happens, he will sort it out and report it to him every three days, so that he can look for clues according to the information provided by the information.
The enemy of his own life, if the master is not joking. I just don't know if this "enemy" will be an old man, a middle-aged woman, an ignorant teenager, or just a yellow-mouthed boy?
At this time, in Maoming City, in the Pan family's compound in the east of the city, there were also two men talking.
The Pan family compound is a typical southern characteristic bucket-style building, built in the previous dynasty and preserved to this day. As a large local family, the Pan family is naturally much larger than ordinary people.
The entrance is the courtyard courtyard, the courtyard is the outer hall, the outer hall is the courtyard, and the verandah on both sides connects more than a dozen large and small rooms.
On the Taigong chair in the courtyard, there was an old man with a clear appearance, the old man was holding a book in his hand, his beard was gray, but he was connected with his beard and beard, and his beard was fluttering, which made people feel upright and peaceful. The top of his head is already semi-bald, wearing a pair of round-framed reading glasses, at first glance, his temperament is a bit like Zhang Daqian, and he looks very good.
There is a middle-aged man in black trousers and white shirt sitting next to him, his face is white and beardless, his brows are frowning lightly but his eyes are resolute, and he has an aura that has been in the top position for a long time, which makes people feel that when talking to him, they will involuntarily become serious.
"Jingtang, how are things going?" the old man held the book in his left hand, his eyes poured on it, and he picked up the teacup with his right hand, took a sip, and then asked calmly.
"Father, the cause of the soul vibration has not yet been found. However, the evil spirit incident in the General Temple in the south of the Yudu City has basically been investigated. In addition, last night, Panzhou Chen Lao went to Xu Fengyan's house in Yudu. Pan Jingtang didn't talk nonsense, and concisely outlined the general situation with his father Pan Desheng.
"According to the reflection of the soul of Mao Ming Gong on the divination paper a few days ago, in addition to the evil spirit, he also felt the existence of another soul body, especially for a moment, he felt that the soul body was not inferior to the main soul of Dongshan at all. Although the time lasted for a short time, he was very impressed, and he would be on the divination paper in a row, and approve the book three times, so you should pay attention to it. Pan Desheng lowered the book and glanced at his son from the top of his glasses.
"This matter, I think, should have something to do with the incident that caused the soul to vibrate that night, and you can investigate it more closely. As for Chen Liying's sudden rush to Yudu County, it may also be because of this incident. As the soul envoy of the city, you can use your power to find an opportunity to probe Xu Fengyan's tone, but it can't be too obvious. Chen Liying, our Pan family should not mess with it for the time being. Pan Desheng, who is nearly 80 years old, is still calm and clear-headed, and when he thinks about things in series, he quickly finds the point of the problem.
"Got it, father. I arranged for more people to investigate the identity and background of the people who were there at the time. It's just that there were a lot of idle people at that time, and it may take a while. Pan Jingtang has been in charge of the Pan family for more than ten years, but he still likes to discuss important things with his father. Sometimes, it is about the essence of things and the organization of things. is as proud as he Pan Jingtang, and he has to admire, Jiang is still old and spicy, and he is still a little too old-fashioned.
"Grandpa, Dad, what national affairs are you two talking about?" a voice like a silver bell rang out in the halls of the outer hall and the inner courtyard.
"Hehe, it's Ling'er, I'm back so early. Come on, come here, come here grandpa. Looking at his granddaughter in a white dress and blooming like a lotus, Pan Desheng suddenly turned into an ordinary kind old man, beckoning his granddaughter to his side.
Pan Desheng had a son in middle age, and then later had a boy and a girl, more than ten years ago, handed over the Pan family to the eldest son to preside, on the surface, he didn't care about anything, just practiced writing and painting, especially the most doting on the ghost in front of him, and the eldest granddaughter who would please him.
"Father, then I'll go out first. Ling'er, you chat with your grandfather more, remember to be well-behaved, don't make your grandfather angry. Seeing his daughter come in, Pan Jingtang felt that it was inappropriate to talk about other things.
"Go, it's good if you don't mess with me, Ling'er Cai is not like you, you know to bother me. "When the granddaughter came, the son was not invited to see her.
"Slightly ......", Pan Xiaoling spit out her little tongue at her father, and made a grimace, Pan Desheng laughed when she saw it, and the old man was full of joy.
Pan Jingtang looked at this family, the old and the young who couldn't be provoked alone, shook his head, and walked out.
"Grandpa, do you think my dress looks good today?"
"Good-looking, good-looking, our Ling'er is the most beautiful, she looks good in anything. ”
"Grandpa......"
"Didn't you say your classmate's birthday, why did you come back so early, and you didn't play for a while. ”
"Isn't that missing you? ”
"Hahaha, good ......"
