Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Purpose of the Hidden Heavenly Secret Record
Three days later, Qiu Qi and I went to the Huangquan Post Office to visit Zhu Youcai at the Huangquan Post Office.
It is said that this Zhu Youcai and his brother Zhu Youshou have always been at odds, and it is precisely because of his brother's accident that he has the opportunity to take charge of the affairs of the post office.
Although Zhu Youshou's death really has nothing to do with me, now everyone outside thinks that I can't get rid of Zhu Youshou's death.
I walked into the post office with a nervous mood, and Qiu Qi signaled to take it easy.
When Qiu Qi walked in, I followed him.
At this time, a fat man with a big waist appeared in the store, and it seemed that the food was very good.
The fat man recognized Qiu Qi at a glance, and stepped forward and patted Qiu Qi eagerly on the shoulder: "Boss Qiu, long time no see!" ”
"Boss Zhu, I'm not bringing a friend to meet you." Qiu Qi also immediately laughed.
At this time, I realized that the fat man in front of me should be Zhu Youcai, compared with the appearance of Zhu Youshou's young talent, Zhu Youcai is a greasy fat man.
"Who is this?" Zhu Youcai looked me up and down.
"It's also a Huangquan postman, named He Ziwu."
"He Ziwu?" Zhu Youcai was obviously stunned, and then said, "Is it that He Ziwu?" ”
I felt a sigh in my heart, ready to run away, the Zhu family couldn't hate me to any extent.
I saw Qiu Qi nodded: "As for Brother Ling's matter, there was a misunderstanding, and I brought him here to clarify the misunderstanding." ”
Zhu Youcai didn't get angry, his expression was as usual, and he suddenly realized: "Oh, so that's the case, my family has been paying attention to my brother's incident, and I also want to know what the truth of the matter is." ”
"I didn't attack Boss Zhu, someone deliberately framed him." I hurriedly explained.
What I didn't expect was that Zhu Youcai nodded slightly: "So it's a misunderstanding?" ”
"Yes, misunderstanding." Qiu Qi echoed.
"Then let's talk about the purpose of your visit this time." Zhu Youcai changed his words.
This surprised me a little, I didn't expect this matter to be over, it seems that Zhu Youcai is really the same as Qiu Qi said, and Zhu Youshou is not compatible, now that Zhu Youshou is dead, he can sit in the position of the boss, I am afraid that he has already smiled in his heart.
Qiu Qi immediately said: "Boss Zhu's matter before, we felt that something was wrong, someone must be planning something behind it. ”
"What do you mean by that?"? Zhu Youcai was surprised.
"If someone wants to attack anyone in our industry, our personal safety will be at risk."
"But what does he gain by doing so?" Zhu Youcai was puzzled.
"It's something I can't figure out, but there's definitely a reason."
"And what is your purpose?"
Qiu Qi replied without hesitation: "I am looking for you to cooperate." ”
"What can I offer?" Zhu Youcai said quietly.
"We need to use your prestige to do a great thing." Qiu Qi's face was mysterious.
Zhu Youcai thought for a moment and agreed: "I am willing to join you, but there is one condition." ”
"On what terms?"
"As long as you are doing positive things and can help me improve my reputation, I will join you, but I will not do anything that damages my reputation."
Zhu Youcai is also an old fritter, he is now a new official, so he naturally needs a fire to let him gain a firm foothold, a big family like the Zhu family, I don't know how many people behind him are eyeing him for this position.
With Zhu Youcai's approval, Qiu Qi and I left the post office.
I asked Qiu Qi what his big plan was.
Qiu Qi smiled faintly: "I want to summon all the Huangquan postmen within a radius of a few miles, in the name of the Zhu family." ”
I hesitated for a moment and said, "Have you ever thought that the other party might be doing something else?" ”
After these few days, I already have a skeptical candidate in my heart.
This person is naturally the mysterious man wearing the mask of a white fox.
The other party came to the secret record of the Tibetan sky, and the cause of Zhu Youshou's death may also be related to him.
I said my conjecture, and Qiu Qi nodded again and again: "I also guess it's him." ”
"Then why do you have to go to such great lengths?" I was puzzled.
Qiu Qi said slowly: "Have you ever thought about what forces are behind him? What was his purpose in obtaining the Secret Record of the Hidden Heavens? ”
Qiu Qi's two questions really stopped me, yes, what is the purpose of the other party's this?
"The Secret Record of the Hidden Heavens is an ancient book, something that the Huangquan postmen want, and the means and methods in it, as long as they get it, it will be enough to monopolize the entire industry."
This sounds strange to me, this book is indeed so powerful, but I haven't realized a door after reading it for a few years, is it because my understanding is too poor?
"It's not your fault." Qiu Qi suddenly glanced at me and said, "Although there are a lot of evil arts and forbidden spells mentioned in it, this is not the most important thing, the important thing is that those evil arts and forbidden spells are recorded in it. ”
Qiu Qi paused and continued: "Therefore, as long as you get this book, it is equivalent to mastering most of the evil arts and forbidden arts, which means great harm. ”
I've just woken up from a dream, yes, I've always only focused on the above means of banning ghosts and removing evil magic, completely ignoring the rest of the information, no wonder it doesn't feel so big in my hands.
"Your grandfather, He Yantian, discovered the harm in this book at that time, so he did not make it public, but kept it privately, and even closed the He Family Post Office, which was in full swing at that time, at any cost."
I was a little shocked, Qiu Qi actually knew all these things that I didn't know.
Looking at my blank expression, Qiu Qi was also surprised: "I thought you knew, didn't your grandfather mention it to you?" ”
I thoughtfully recalled: "I just remember that he said that the book was important and that no one else could know about it. ”
"It's true that since your grandfather's death, this book has disappeared, and no one knows where it is, but everyone has tacitly agreed that it will be with you, and after my deception, you still admit it."
I looked at Qiu Qi in surprise: "You trick me, right?" ”
"Don't say it so badly, I'm going to teach you a lesson to avoid you being fooled in the future." Qiu Qi smiled evilly.
Qiu Qi continued: "In short, we have negotiated with Zhu Youcai, and then I will implement it, and you have to do me a favor." ”
"What's the busy?" I looked at Qiu Qi vigilantly, this kid always has a bad stomach, I don't know if he plans to calculate me again.
"You are the most capable and have the most special task."
"You say it first, I'll see if I can do it."
Qiu Qi's face was mysterious: "You must be able to." ”
After speaking, he took out a huge white ring jade plate from his pocket, on which was carved a swimming dragon.
"Kitsune? Where did you get that? ”
