Chapter 155: Hooked
Crash. Yuan Qisheng pulled the fishing rod and lifted it up, but he did not use force to lift all the fishing lines out of the water at once, so that the hook and the fish mouth were connected more tightly, and then followed the swimming trajectory of the fish in the opposite direction, and finally pulled the tired and half-dead fish out of the water.
Goo-dong. The ripples on the surface of the water rippled and scattered, and a green carp jumped out of the water with a hook, its scales reflecting its brilliance in the sun, and the fish was lying on its stomach, leaving its tail still sweeping from time to time, and had given up resistance.
This carp weighs seven or eight pounds, to say the least, and is considered a big fish.
Click, click. The plump green carp came ashore and began to flutter again in the grass and mud, as if sensing that being hung up was more than just death.
"I'm lucky, I can have a bowl of delicious fish soup to drink tonight," Yuan Qisheng smiled.
Zhao Yan remained silent, did not talk, and looked at the green carp who was still resisting after being hooked.
Yuan Qisheng was also looking at the fluttering green carp, picked it off the hook, caught it, paused and said, "Okay, I'll prepare firewood cooking utensils, and you are responsible for cleaning the fish scales." ”
Zhao Yan smiled: "It seems that I can have a night of delicious fish soup to drink tonight." ”
Yuan Qisheng turned his head and looked at Zhao Yan a little helplessly: "You can be happy, if you meet an unparticular chef like the old man, otherwise you will have to do all the chores." ”
"I'm lucky", Zhao Yan shook the blade.
Outside the city of Cangzhou, a mansion is hidden in the field, and the nearby villagers go home to eat along the road after their work, and they will stop when they pass by the mansion and the courtyard, look at the outline of the mansion with envy, and guess which big man placed the family business outside the city.
The villagers only know that this mansion is very expensive, and it has existed many years ago, and the grandfather's generation said that it already existed in their grandfather's generation.
In the courtyard of the mansion, Wang Qi Hongpu opened the bamboo curtain, glanced at the afterglow and the old farmer walking on the loess hard road with a hoe and a water jug, and then put it down and walked into the center of the lobby.
There was also a man sitting inside, chubby, with a face of forty years old, wearing a dark silver-rimmed robe, and drinking tea from a teacup that was disproportionate to his fat hand.
"Brother clan, the matter of Cangzhou has basically been smashed into my hands, and the next thing is to help the clan brother a lot", Wang Qi Hongpu was a little helpless.
He thought that no matter how bad things were, they would not involve the Wang Qi family, let alone directly knock Yanzong to the bottom, but the current result was that Cangzhou was under full martial law, and all immortal cultivators who practiced evil laws and evil formations were searched.
There were a lot of peripheral figures in Wang Qi's power, but fortunately, the impact was not too big, which made Wang Qi Hongpu breathe a sigh of relief, but the matter of Yanzong could not be left behind.
The sect that had spent a lot of effort in the north was gone, and someone had to stand up to bear the pressure, and Wang Qi Hongpu naturally became the best candidate, he was in Cangzhou at that time, and he was the actual person in charge.
The chubby Wang Qi clan brother is called Hong Ze, half a month ago in response to Wang Qi Hongpu's letter of request for help, he came to Cangzhou, and before he could gain a firm foothold, he was dragged to fight with Yuan Qisheng and the commander of Cangzhou Town, and he was injured a little, and he only recovered a few days ago.
Wang Qi Hongze was a little angry in his heart, and when he saw Wang Qi Hongpu's somewhat pitiful appearance, he put down the teacup: "Don't worry, I will try my best to cooperate with you in the future." ”
Wang Qi Hongpu nodded, and pushed out a blessing bag and fell into the middle of Wang Qi Hongze's case: "Little brother has a little heart, and the clan brother must not shirk." ”
The smile on his face was a little reluctant, a little helpless, this is something he has never disdained to do, this is what the principal of Cangzhou taught him, he always thought that he would never need to go this far.
He was wrong, he knew that there were countless money transactions within Wang Qi's forces, but he didn't understand that if he couldn't change this situation, he would inevitably suffer from it, and he couldn't guarantee everything if he was clean and self-conscious, and dedicating all his strength to the family.
What's more, if everything is not centered on people, there will always be external factors.
Wang Qi Hongze caught a glimpse of the lucky bag waiting quietly on the desk, the corners of his mouth were hooked, his eyes were shining, and he put the lucky bag in his pocket with a pair of hands.
raised his head and said with a smile: "Brother Hongpu, this matter is a bit extraordinary, they are all brothers of the same clan, there is no need to be so polite." ”
Wang Qi Hongpu is not a person who does not know how to lift, after the matter is done, he begins to think about how to maximize his interests, he will not twist, and he will make a look of betraying his conscience, and it is not happy to provoke people to receive gifts.
smiled at the moment: "Brother Clan is serious, you and my brother come and go, a little gift is nothing, not to mention, the younger brother still needs the help of Brother Clan." ”
After hearing this, Wang Yu Hongze patted his chest with a serious face and said: "Don't worry, you can rest assured, the matter here in Cangzhou is obvious to all, which is the fault and responsibility of your brother Hongpu? ”
"Brother, it's exactly this thing that I want to talk about, I didn't expect that the clan brother has already had the results of the visit," Wang Qihongpu said.
"It's not enough to worry about trivial matters", Wang Qi Hongze said: "However, you have to arrange the next things, and you can't make any more trouble, otherwise it will be useless for you to come up with more evidence." ”
Evidence, which refers to money.
Wang Qi Hongpu understood and said: "I have sent someone to strictly control it, and Yuan Qisheng's whereabouts will always be in my hands." ”
"That's good, tell me about the situation," Wang asked Hongze.
He came to Cangzhou for not all money, but also for credit, otherwise it would be difficult to explain when he went back, without merit, he couldn't get a higher position, and naturally he couldn't collect a larger amount of money.
Wang Qihongpu said: "In recent days, there has been a reply that the spies of the Covering Sea Sect have organized a group of people to enter the mountain and wander around the tomb, probably to spy on the guards in the tomb. ”
Wang Qi Hongze nodded, knowing that this was a precursor to Yuan Qisheng's move.
Wang Qihongpu continued: "It is estimated that he will soon be able to find out the situation of the change of guards in the tomb, and this is the best time for him to act. ”
"If I'm not mistaken, we have been investigated by a master in the clan about the rotation of the tomb, why don't we just go and wait near the tomb, or we do it ourselves?"
Wang Yuhongpu shook his head and said, "It's true that the guards of the tomb are responsible for investigating the relevant information, but the time for the guards to be replaced is very arbitrary, and it all depends on the mood of the commander behind, and we can't get effective information." ”
Wang Yunhongze snorted: "Then it seems that we can only follow Yuan Qisheng for now, let him go to the front, so as to save us from causing trouble by revealing too many deeds." ”
"That's right, one is to use Yuan Qisheng to investigate the situation, and the other is to use the grass demon to break the formation, which is relatively faster than our own actions," Wang Qi Hongpu said.
