The ice carp is more precious, but the old man is still not willing to exchange it for a fishing rod.

He was even more ambitious: "Can I change your cat?"

Wang Qilin was stunned.

After the old man said the conditions, he was weak-hearted, and muttered, "Otherwise, I will exchange two fishing rods for your cat?"

Wang Qilin said earnestly: "Uncle, you have to be lucky, you meet an upright me today, otherwise your two fishing rods will be gone, you know?"

The old man was puzzled by this: "What do you mean?"

Wang Qilin beckoned to Eight Meow, who stood on the stone and jumped onto his palm like an off-string arrow.

"It's very simple, if I'm not right, I'll agree to your terms, and then this cat will come back after you take it away, and then you will lose two fishing rods for nothing. ”

The old man was a little unconvinced.

Wang Qilin said: "My cat is a little monster!"

He put the eight meows on his shoulders and squatted, took the hand of the Suisui lady and walked away.

On the road, there were people who carried a burden to the city to sell baked cakes, and Wang Qilin bought a baked cake and took Suisui Niangzi along the river.

During this time, he saw the children who were jumping on the ice ridges, and there were many of them, and they were jumping on the ice without falling into the water.

Wang Qilin sighed that these children have a big life, because the small ones can't live now.

He went to find a section of water with few people, chose an ice cube and jumped on it, squatted on the ice cube and kneaded it and threw it on the surface of the river.

The crumbs of the baked cakes gradually fell, and some fish heard the news.

Suisui Niangzi also stood on a piece of ice, and she didn't see any movement, and the ice cube floated to Wang Qilin like a small raft.

She asked curiously, "Do you feed the fish?"

Wang Qilin shook his head and said, "No, I fish." ”

Suisui Lady was puzzled and asked, "What do you use to catch fish?"

Wang Qilin saw that there were more fish drawn out by the baked cakes, so he pinched the sword trick and shouted: "The sword is out!"

Listening to the thunder sword soaring into the sky and then plugging it upside down, like Dongfeng Express, straight into the water.

Wang Qilin jumped on the ice edge and ran away.

"Boom!"

A huge column of water exploded.

Suisui didn't have time to run, but the river water poured on her did not fall on her, but fell straight back into the water as if it had touched a transparent wall.

There were a lot of fish floating on the river.

Suisui Lady asked, "You're fishing like this?"

Wang Qilin said to Suisui Niangzi: "Yes, lady, the world has changed. ”

The fish attracted were all stunned by the thunder, and dozens of crucian carp floated up, the largest of which was like Wang Qilin's slap, which was not small.

Wang Qilin asked Eight Meow to catch all the fish, went to the willow tree and tore two slender branches, and then skewered the fish.

They happily went home with the crucian carp and ran to the kitchen together to work.

Wang Qilin helped her clean up the small fish, and Suisui Niangzi sat in a small pot on the stove and wanted to put oil when she saw him come in, but she couldn't help but shake her head when she took the fish: "It's not clean." ”

When he heard this, Wang Qilin was furious: "I have been fishing and processing fish in the river behind the village since I was a child, and this fish is not clean?"

Suisui Niangzi took a small pair of scissors, picked off the gills and removed the inner gills, carefully picked out a few remaining fish scales, and finally built the shark fin and fish tail, and then put the oil on the pot.

Wang Qilin muttered, "Why are you so meticulous?"

Suisui Niangzi glanced at him, sprinkled a few peppercorns and a few slices of ginger into the oil, and put a tail of fish in the pot.

She flipped the fish with chopsticks, a pair of long chopsticks played better in her hand than a sword in the hand of the white ape, the small fish were fried yellow and flipped over, and finally poured out the excess oil, she poured the big stick bone broth stewed every day into the pot, so that the soup suddenly became thick white.

In the heat, Wang Qilin leaned against the door and looked at it attentively.

The stove is short, Suisui Niangzi has to bend over to cook, her waist is slender and flexible, her back is straight, and she bends it like a small bridge of flowing water.

Wang Qilin wanted to cross the bridge.

The spring fish is really delicious, and in the long steam, the delicious taste comes out.

The fish soup is boiling, and the Suisui lady controls the heat.

The heat of the stove is not easy to control, Suisui Niangzi picked up the pot with one hand and lit it on the stove with the other and said: "The fire is small, and the fire is simmering." ”

The blazing fire suddenly began to converge.

Wang Qilin's eyes burst out.

After simmering for a quarter of an hour, the thick white soup gurgled and slammed the lid of the wooden pot.

Suisui Niangzi opened the lid of the small pot, and there seemed to be a spring hidden in the pot.

She rummaged through the soup, grabbed a handful of chopped shallots and chopped coriander and sprinkled them, and then put the pot down: "Okay, I'm ready to drink fish soup." ”

A half-fat face popped out of the doorway.

Wang Qilin looked over in surprise, and the black bean silently withdrew half of his face.

How did this kid come here? Could it be that he also has cultivation, and he can hear Suisui Niangzi's words or smell the scent of fish across several walls on the same street?

He shouted, "Black Bean, you come out." ”

Black beans are back on their feet.

Wang Qilin asked suspiciously, "Have you smelled the taste of fish soup?"

Black Bean shook his head.

"Then we were about to drink fish soup, why did you show up?"

Black Bean said: "Bean heard what Aunt said just now, and is going to drink fish soup. ”

Wang Qilin was shocked: "How did you hear that?"

Black Bean said: "I just heard it, the bean ears are attached to the door, so I can hear it." ”

Wang Qilin pointed to the door panel he pulled and asked, "What did you hear on this door?"

Black Bean said, "When Dou was walking the pig, he saw you coming back with some fish, so he came. ”

Wang Qilin secretly scolded, if this kid has such wit in reading books and articles, he may not be able to become the uncle of Zhuangyuanlang in the future.

Suisui Niangzi scooped a bowl of fish soup and beckoned to him: "Come, beans come to drink soup." ”

Black Beans came happily and bouncing.

Wang Qilin quietly stretched out a foot halfway.

The black bean was tripped like a penguin stepping on a rock, but he wore a lot, so it didn't hurt to fall, he got up neatly and glared at Wang Qilin, and continued to happily pick up the bowl and carefully go to the door to sit down and drink soup.

Wang Qilin said, "Do you know why your uncle tripped you just now?"

Black Bean nodded.

Wang Qilin felt that he was not so clever, and asked, "Why?"

Black Bean said: "Don't say the beans, if you say you'll beat the beans." ”

Wang Qilin said with a smile: "You said, uncle will definitely not beat you, when did uncle beat you?"

Black Bean thought about it, indeed, it was his mother who beat him.

So he said happily, "Because you're bad! You're a bad uncle!"

Wang Qilin couldn't help but raise his hand to give him a slap in the face, and the black bean pointed at him and shouted: "Zi said, people have no faith, and they don't know what they can do." ”

This sentence is a bit profound, Wang Qilin knows at most a 'person who does not believe in it', and he doesn't understand what this means.

But since this is what the son said, there must be a profound truth.

He was shocked by the export of black beans, so he touched the melon on his head instead, and said: "Uncle just tripped you to punish you, you said the wrong thing, you can't call Sui Sui an aunt in the future, you have to call your aunt." ”

Black Bean asked, "Uncle's mother?"

Wang Qilin said: "Uncle's mother is your grandmother, and your aunt is your uncle's wife!"

Heidou tilted his head and asked suspiciously: "Uncle's mother is grandma, then you are my uncle, grandma is your mother, I want your mother to be called grandma or grandma?"

Wang Qilin said: "Aren't you calling grandma now? Actually, it's okay to call grandma." ”

Black Bean asked, "Then why is it okay to call grandma and grandma?"

Wang Qilin was about to explain, but Suisui Niangzi came over and patted him and said, "Stupid Langjun, you were toyed with by black beans, do you know? Do you think he really doesn't understand the name of his uncle?"

She sat down and blew the hot fish soup for Black Bean, and asked softly, "Don't Beans want me to be your uncle's wife?"

Black Bean secretly glanced at Wang Qilin, and quickly leaned into the ear of Suisui Niangzi and whispered: "You have suffered a loss!"

Wang Qilin's ears were sensitive, and he shouted: "What are you talking about? Uncle, I hurt you in vain! Go back tonight and make your pig into a roast suckling pig!"

Black Bean bit her lip, and after making a difficult choice, she said, "Auntie is more important than a pig!

Suisui Niangzi suddenly smiled, hugged his little face and kissed him and said, "Even if my aunt doesn't hurt you in vain, come, drink fish soup, and after drinking, my aunt will scoop a bowl for you." ”

Wang Qilin asked Heidou, "Is my uncle bad?"

Black Bean touched his butt and said, "Okay, uncle." ”

Wang Qilin said: "Then why do you say that your aunt is a wife to your uncle, which is a loss?"

The black bean said sneeringly: "Uncle is better." ”

Wang Qilin raised his fist in a breath of true anger, and Eight Meow and Jiuliu hurriedly came up and grabbed his arm: Dad, this is a child, and it is still a child.

Suisui Niangzi glared at him with a wave of eyes, and asked Heidou with a smile: "If your uncle doesn't give your uncle a wife, then who will be your wife?"

Black Bean hugged the bowl and thought about it carefully, and said, "Give it to your uncle." ”

Wang Qilin immediately let go of this true qi.

It turns out that he is the best man in this cub's heart.

Suisui Niangzi also scooped a bowl of fish soup for him, so the small bowl of black beans was a big bowl, one fish in the black bean bowl, and two fish in his bowl.

Two people, one big and one small, two bowls, they sat side by side on the kitchen threshold, with a black cat and a white dog squatting in the middle, and then watched the wind blowing in the yard together, and drank fish soup.

Incense, that's really fragrant.

It's cool, it's really cool.

What's even cooler is that Suisui Niangzi handed him a bowl of wine, and then gave him a wink.

Wang Qilin didn't want to drink this bowl of wine.

He wanted to tell Suisui Niangzi that a lover's winking is the best tonic for a man.

Then he thought again, if he didn't go to do anything and didn't investigate any cases, he would go fishing for a fish and catch a chicken with Suisui Niangzi every day, and then come back to drink soup and eat meat with the cubs, wouldn't it be a good day?

He pondered for a while, and then decided, in the future, he will finish what should be done, and the things that should be flat will be settled, and then he will stop being an official, and come back to take his daughter-in-law to find a place with water, and rock the boat every day to fish and drink fish soup!

After making this decision, he couldn't help but sigh: Mother, the gentle township is a hero's mound, and the ancestor will not deceive me!

Thinking of this, he smiled secretly, fortunately he was not a hero in the first place, and he didn't want to be a hero.

Heidou noticed that he shook his head and sighed and laughed to himself, and then secretly moved to the side: It seems that he is drunk, and he should stay away from a drunk man, his father used to be like this, and he would beat himself and his mother when he was drunk.

Wang Qilin didn't care about his small movements, he just sat on this threshold for a long time, until the moon was in the middle of the sky, and the city was silent.

At the end of the first month, Taiba sent him a letter, and Tan Shengyong arrived soon.

After receiving the letter, Wang Qilin asked his subordinates to start cleaning up, and he went to Houmen with Xie Toad and Xu Da to find Tianyan Hou Zhao Kuo.

Zhao Kuo understood his intention, and when he saw him coming, he gave a salute, and then handed him a booklet and said, "The information that Lord Wang entrusted to inquire about in the next place has been sorted out in the book. ”

He hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Lord Wang, if you are not satisfied with the information in the book, please understand. ”

"The matter of the upside-down army is not so easy to investigate, the matter is related to Emperor Taizu and the secret history of the imperial court, so there is not much information found below, but I have found some relevant people who are still alive. ”

"And the news of the Jinshan faction is even more difficult to check, the thing is too long, there are many messy rumors on the rivers and lakes, and all the news can only be registered, although it has been sorted out, but a lot of news is gossip, and I hope you can be patient to see. ”

Wang Qilin hugged his fists and said, "Thank you Lord Hou for your help." ”

Zhao Kuo waved his hand and said: "Lord Wang is too polite, and he didn't help you much, but I can promise you that the information in this volume is what I have done my best to sort out, and there is absolutely no information that wants to treat you lightly or even deceive you, and I hope you can learn from it." ”

After Wang Qilin became a bronze lieutenant, his attitude was very different.

After a few low-key and polite words, Zhao Kuo proposed one thing: "There is such a thing about the entanglement between Jin Yaozi and Jin Huizi's brothers. ”

"About forty years ago, there was a news circulating in the rivers and lakes that the two brothers were shipwrecked in a valley, and someone covered the two of them to escape, but at the last moment of escape, Jin Huizi was eager to flee for his life and knocked Jin Yaozi, who was running in front of him to block the road, to the ground. ”

Wang Qilin's spirits perked, isn't this the experience of his father's idiot who didn't forget what Qiu said?

Zhao Kuo continued: "This news came from an elder of the Ma Gang forty years ago, that elder is highly respected, and he claims that this news is absolutely true. ”

At that time, Jin Huizi had already ascended to the throne of the head of the Jinshan Sect, so the whole sect was furious when they heard the news, claiming that they wanted to confront the elders of the Nama Gang. ”

However, the elder of the caravan was assassinated on the way to the shipment a few days later, and this rumor was suppressed, because Jin Huizi was in retreat at the time, and the caravan finally found the murderer of the elder, proving that the elder was killed and Jin Huizi really had nothing to do with it. ”

"And according to my Houmen's record of this caravan elder, it is said that this person is upright, open-minded, and prudent in his words and deeds throughout his life, and his words should be of reference value. ”

Wang Qilin said: "You mean, you are inclined to believe that this statement is true?"

Zhao Kuo clenched his fists and said: "No, Lord Wang, I also know that I don't forget the past that I said in front of the Jinshan faction, these two people and my words are credible in Xia." ”

However, Jin Hui Zhenren Dehou Streamer and Huai Jin held Yu, and he thought that his dying words were also credible. ”

Xu Da pouted and said, "Master Hou, you are really a chicken thief." ”

Zhao Kuo smiled and said: "Lord Xu, please listen patiently after speaking, and through this matter, I will think of an old thing in the rivers and lakes." ”

"It wasn't that long ago, it happened eight years ago, two friends went on a trip together. Then one day they met a family who built a building with beams and was warmly welcomed. ”

One of these two friends is named Lu Qingshen, who is a descendant of Lu Banshu, and he found that the building of this family was tampered with during the banquet, and there were some problems with feng shui. In this way, since he has eaten other people's wine and food, he naturally can't stand idly by, so he has to go to solve the problem for the master's house. ”

But the mastermind behind the tricks turned out to be very capable, Lu Qingshen moved Feng Shui, this person actually appeared, and the two sides inevitably moved, but Lu Qingshen and his friends teamed up and only had a draw with him. ”

What made Lu Qingshen angry was that his friend ran away by himself when he saw that he was not an opponent, and then Lu Qingshen used a secret technique left by his ancestor to escape. ”

"If this happens, the two friends will naturally cut off their relationship!"

"But it was indeed Lu Qinghui's friend who took the initiative to cut off the relationship, his friend was seriously injured, and he once entrusted me to help find a few very precious medicinal materials, but unfortunately he died of serious injuries, before he died, I went to see him, and he told me another truth they encountered when they went to Shangliang's house for dinner that day. ”

At that time, they met a group of starving ghosts at the banquet, and the two joined forces to defend against the enemy, and at the critical time, Lu Qingshen attacked him and robbed him of a family heirloom magic weapon and fled, and although he finally escaped, he was mortally wounded and finally died. ”

Wang Qilin understood what he meant and asked, "Do you think what the two of them said is the truth?"

Zhao Kuo said solemnly: "These two people are friends in Xiaxia, and they know their tempers very well, and they think that they are not people who can lie." But after this incident happened at that time, I didn't think much about it, and I thought that one of the two of them was lying. ”

"So this time, when I was entrusted by the adults to investigate the past of Jin Yaozi and Jin Huizi's senior brothers, I suddenly thought of this old incident eight years ago, so I couldn't help but think, what if the four of them didn't lie in these two things?"

Zhao Kuo shook his head in confusion when he said this: "Of course, this is just an immature speculation, but this is possible after all, right? Maybe they are all in a fantasy realm? So they all have an experience that they recognize, is this the past?"

Wang Qilin looked at Xie Toad, but saw Xie Toad frowning and falling into deep thought.

He wrote down the name of Lu Qingshen and thanked Zhao Kuo.

In any case, he did propose a new direction in the search for the truth.

They took the booklet back to the post house, Wang Qilin first briefly flipped through the booklet, and found that if he wanted to go to the capital, he would pass through the Longdong area, and there was a veteran of the upside-down army whose hometown was in the northeast of Longdong, and he would only need to make a slight detour to go to the veteran's home.

Seeing this, he took out the map and redrew a new route, and he had to go to the old soldier's house to see.

The post was almost packed, Wang Liuwu and Wang Qiaoniang and others moved all their luggage to the fifth taste, they did not enter Beijing for the time being, according to Wang Liuwu's meaning, they wanted to go back to their hometown to live, so it was too difficult to follow Wang Qilin around.

Wang Qilin packed his luggage, hugged Bameow and Jiuliu, and fell asleep with Shihe.

Suddenly there was a loud bang in the middle of the night, and then the ground shook!

He quickly pushed open the window and rushed out.

The entire Uehara Prefecture is suddenly in turmoil!

In the dark night, the fire is rushing into the sky!

Wang Qilin flew up to the roof of the building to look and found that the place where the fire caught fire should be the Royal Palace.

Xu Da didn't care about putting on his coat, wrapped in a quilt and rushed out, and after a short time, he rushed back again, shouting: "Seventh Master, something happened to them who are unstable in the world, and the soldiers and generals in the city are all reinforced, how do you plan to reinforce?"

Wang Qilin shouted: "How else can I reinforce it, it must be all dispatched!"

Hearing this, Xu Da threw out a summoning talisman.

Wang Qilin continued: "All of them are dispatched to reinforce the side that is attacking the other garden, damn, let that son pit Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will take advantage of the chaos to kill him tonight!"
