Lu Zhou stretched his waist and glanced out the window, I don't know when, there was snow.

He never thought that the reason why Chao Jin'er chased after him was just to let him tell an ending to the story that he didn't finish telling back then.

Stories with a beginning and no end are always hated.

Lu Zhou sighed, where did he know the ending of Xia Yuhe, he didn't even know where his ending was.

Open the door and sit under the eaves.

Snowflakes are flying all over the sky.

He picked up a knife and a block of wood and began to carve a portrait with a thin and sharp blade and long and powerful fingers.

"Who are you carving?" Chao Jin'er walked to Lu Zhou's side and sat down too, his eyes full of doubts.

"Yourself. "Lu Zhou Road.

"It's not like you at all. Chao Jin'er didn't believe it.

Lu Zhou smiled bitterly and said, "It comes from the heart." ”

Of course not, because there are two people at all, one in a past life and one in this life.

"When will you become skilled in carving?" Chao Jin'er said.

Lu Zhou's carving skills are actually average, and only rough lines and a vague outline can be vaguely seen, and the only thing that is carved more finely is the hat with a slightly strange shape.

"What you see is only carving, and in my opinion, this is cultivation. ”

"Have you ever heard of Xiao Li's flying knife?"

"That's how he cultivates, the longer he carves, the more stable his hand becomes, and the flying knives that shoot out can be done without fail. ”

Lu Zhou remembered that the story of Xiao Li's flying knife had not been told to Chao Jin'er.

Chao Jin'er tilted her head to look at Lu Zhou and chuckled: "I don't know who Xiao Li is, but I know that there is still a difference between a flying knife and a kitchen knife." ”

She glanced at the kitchen knife in Lu Zhou's hand, full of disdain.

Lu Zhou didn't care, the portrait had been carved, he looked at the portrait in his hand stupidly, a man wearing a police hat, and he didn't know how long he looked at it, and then he walked into the courtyard.

"It's snowing!"

Chao Jin'er hurriedly said behind her back.

Snowflakes fell on Lu Zhou's head, shoulders, he dug a pit in the ground, buried the carved figure deep in it, and then he stood in front of the snowdrift stupidly.

Chao Jin'er stood behind him, her long eyelashes covering the loss in her eyes.

......

......

It had been snowing all day, so business in Reishunin was much quieter tonight.

No one wants to come here on such a cold day to find warmth.

"This is this month's monthly money, the information provided by Lu Zhou, and the reward is eight taels of silver, Lu Zhou has worked hard, so he takes four taels of silver. ”

"I'm left with Jin'er and two by one, okay?"

Qu Qi Niang took out a few pieces of silver from her sleeve, divided them into three parts, and then pushed them to Lu Zhou and Chao Jin'er, who were sitting across the table.

Chao Jin'er didn't expect that the information handed in by Lu Zhou would really be rewarded in exchange.

Are you kidding?

It's all like this, isn't Shuo Guo eating jujube pills?

"I can't take the money I get in exchange for false information. ”

Chao Jin'er refused without hesitation, for her, two taels of silver was not enough for her usual money to buy rouge gouache.

Although she is a scorpion tail for Lu Zhou, it does not mean that Scorpion Tail has no outlook on life and values.

"You think our intelligence is fake, deceived the above, and this money is not coming from the right, so you refuse to accept it, right?" Qu Qiniang looked at Chao Jin'er and said.

"Isn't it?" Chao Jin'er asked rhetorically.

"It seems that Lu Zhou was right not to choose you as the scorpion tail at the beginning. Qu Qiniang said a sentence in her mouth, just a month's work, she found the difference between professional and non-professional, and now she even has to work hard to explain the basic knowledge: "Every piece of information in Lu Zhou is aimed at the major factions in Shenzhou City, and for the governor's mansion, the movements of the major factions in Shenzhou City are particularly important, so his intelligence is worth this price." ”

"Can those also be called intelligence?" Chao Jin'er was a little disdainful.

She still remembers the contents of this information, and always feels like a joke: "I think that 'information' is worthless!"

Qu Qiniang looked at Chao Jin'er: "The scorpion is only responsible for collecting, and whether it has value or not does not belong to the scorpion." ”

Chao Jin'er opened her mouth, she wanted to refute, but she didn't know how to refute.

The existence of the scorpion only has the two functions of collecting intelligence and carrying out tasks, and whether the intelligence is used by the scorpion or not does not matter, there is naturally a special person to analyze it.

"If we can directly find useful information, won't we be able to reduce the work above?" Chao Jin'er finally found an excuse that was not an excuse: "A useful piece of information can reflect our value as a scorpion!"

"How can you conclude that Lu Zhou's intelligence is useless?" Qu Qiniang stared at Chao Jin'er, and asked with a smile: "Or are you doubting me?" After all, Lu Zhou's information still has to be handed over to me. ”

"If Lu Zhou mentions Zhang San and Li Si, I will report it?"

Isn't it Zhang San and Li Si who reported it?

Chao Jin'er pouted, this seemed to be different from the scorpion she imagined.

But fortunately, she didn't really come to make this scorpion tail: "I don't want the monthly money, my share is given to the Lu account room." ”

After speaking, she pushed the silver taels in front of her into the pile in front of Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou took the money with a smile and said, "I'll help you collect it first, and I'll give it to you again in two days when you look for me." ”

"I'm not going to ask for you. ”

Chao Jin'er seems to have more change than this when she goes out to eat tea on weekdays.

"I'm afraid you forgot, you're not Chaojin'er now. Lu Zhou smiled faintly: "I do this accounting room, and the seventh sister can also allocate some monthly money to me every month from the profits of Lichun Courtyard, and all my income is the rewards given above." ”

"You don't work in Lichun Courtyard, and you don't want information dividends, and the money on your body is spent, so you don't need to buy fat powder?"

Chao Jin'er frowned slightly, she had never thought about this question yet.

"Isn't there still a task to take on?"

Soon she thought of a solution, the head and tail of the scorpion in addition to collecting intelligence, but also perform some special tasks.

"It's not every day. ”

At least Lu Zhou has been in Lichun Courtyard for nearly a month, and he hasn't seen a single mission.

But this is just right, after so many years of undercover, it is rare to be idle.

Before Lu Zhou's words fell, he saw a paper crane glowing with white light floating leisurely on the windowsill.

Qu Qiniang frowned slightly, walked to the window and opened the window, a cold wind blew in along the gap, and a few snowflakes fell on the ground under the window with the cold wind, melting into water droplets.

The paper crane arrived in Qu Qi Niang's hand, with the input of Qu Qi Niang's true yuan, the paper crane slowly unfolded, Qu Qi Niang glanced at it, frowned slightly, and then put the paper in his hand on the table.

"The crow's beak in the Lu Ledger is really black. ”

"As soon as I finished speaking, it is not a task every day, but a task will come immediately. ”

The corner of Lu Zhou's eyes jumped, and Chao Jin'er reached out to take the piece of paper and glanced at it, and was stunned.

This task......

Is it really related to Lu Zhou's intelligence?

I saw that the paper read:

"Yellow number mission.

Description: King Kong Temple lost a treasure of the temple, suspected to be stolen by the Zen master of the dead leaves, the Zen master of the dead leaves went to a golden lion dart game three days ago, please chase and kill the dead leaves to snatch back the treasure of the temple.
