Chapter 7578 Xiao Shi
Lin Zechengwai.
"Little water demon, you have grown up a bit."
Not long after they parted, Luo Xingchen discovered that the little water demon had grown up a lot.
“This kind of water monster eats a lot, and it only eats live fish and shrimps. It’s not easy to keep.” A Yuan said with a smile on his face.
"Will it attack people?" Luo Xingchen came closer and looked at the little water demon.
“When the eldest sister first asked me to bring him back, the little water demon was very dishonest and wanted to bite people when he opened his mouth. Later, after I taught him a lesson several times, he gradually became more honest and did not dare to bite people anymore. ”
A Yuan took a sip. He pursed his lips and said, "However, it still needs to be covered with barbed wire. It has tried to escape several times."
"I can control it now with barbed wire. When it grows older, I'm afraid it won't be able to be controlled by barbed wire." Luo Xingchen said thoughtfully.
"It's okay. During this period, A Yuan will tame the little water demon... If he really can't tame it, A Yuan will kill the little water demon." Mo Anbai smiled slightly.
"It's not a pity to kill them."
"It's a pity that animals that hurt people and are not well-raised cannot be kept. In the past, the slave family also brought back several kinds of monster cubs, but in the end they were not fully raised, so they were all killed. ”
Mo Anbai shook his head.
"What's the benefit of raising these monsters, even if they are mature?" Luo Xingchen asked doubtfully.
"It's good. This little water demon is full of treasures, and the meat is of excellent quality. If you can raise it, you can make a lot of money." Mo Anbai pursed his lips and said.
"No way, even if you raise a little water monster, how can you breed more."
"Sir, have you forgotten? The slave family can catch it in the underground river in the Yudai Mountains. There are many water monsters there." Mo Anbai blinked.
"That's true, let's give it a try."
Luo Xingchen said thoughtfully.
……
"Ahem!"
Long Junhao stood on a cliff, looking at the dense white mist in the valley, his eyes full of gloom.
"Sir, if you stay too long, you will get cold."
A man in black nearby said.
"Hei, how long have we been in such embarrassment?" Long Junhao exhaled heavily.
This time, although he escaped, all his years of business were destroyed.
Originally, he was seeking promotion within the Skynet organization, but now he has completely failed.
"It's been a few years, but, sir, you weren't afraid of your predicament back then, so why should you be afraid of this time." Hei's voice was sinister, but his tone was very sincere.
Although he is a killer with no emotion, the so-called lack of emotion is only an approximation, not really one at all.
After so many years, I have experienced too much with Long Junhao, and there is still some emotional accumulation.
"It's different."
Long Junhao sighed and looked into the distance.
“Back then, I was young, enterprising, and not afraid of death. Now, I have gray hair on my temples...”
“Ten years, there are several decades in life, lurking in Linze City, It took ten years of hard work to get to this position.”
“My lord, that’s all the boss of the branch of Yang’s Trading Company. Your lord is still the head of Linze City Skynet.” Hei didn’t quite understand. .
In his opinion, he was just the shopkeeper of a trading company or a branch. What was so great about this? Is it worth Long Junhao's melancholy?
"Don't underestimate the branch manager. The power in his hands can be said to be the secret emperor of Lin Zecheng. As for the prefect of Lin Zecheng, he still depends on the face of the branch manager." Long Junhao said lightly.
"That's not the case, sir!" Hei was stunned.
"You have been away all year round, so you can understand the energy hidden under the water of Yang's Trading Company. In the entire Linze City, at least one-third of the business is related to Yang's Trading Company. Those yamen and officials in the Prefecture , which one is not related to Yang's Trading Company? There are no clues..." Long Junhao sighed: "Losing the position of the big shopkeeper, our Skynet organization has suffered a huge loss, which means the loss of an excellent hiding place, and the loss in money and food is even more indispensable. The number of wins.”
"What should I do, sir? Either my brothers and I will kill Luo Xingchen, and my Lord will take the opportunity to take back the position of the shopkeeper." Hei pointed his palm towards everyone in front of him, making a gesture of cutting someone's neck.
"We can give it a try. Now let everyone get moving and check the current situation in Linze City to see if we still have a chance."
Long Junhao originally thought subconsciously He wanted to reject it, but then he thought about it and Black's idea was not a bad idea.
Killing Luo Xingchen will cause chaos in the entire Linze City. Even if he cannot get back the position of the chief shopkeeper, he can take the opportunity to transport out all the money and food he has hidden, which can greatly reduce the losses.
"Sir, besides Luo Xingchen, do you need to kill anyone else? That Prefect of Chu..."
"Leave it alone for now and don't kill him until I contact King Dong Fa."
Long Junhao put his hands behind his back.
He was originally hesitant about contacting the people from the northern magic sect. Now, he no longer hesitates and is determined to contact Dong Wenjun, the left guardian Dharma king who went south, and cooperate with him.
As long as part of the losses can be recovered, his promotion within the Skynet organization may not be impossible.
"Here." Hei lowered his head and said.
……
At noon.
Luo Xingchen sat at the table.
The companions are Mo Anbai, A Yuan and A Xi.
Most of the dishes on the table are various kinds of fish, all of which are packed in big pots.
After Luo Xingchen tasted it, he really praised Ah Xi's cooking skills several times.
Axi is much more mature than Ayuan. She is also good at cooking all kinds of fish and has her own set of techniques.
While eating, there was a knock on the door.
“No, sister Axi, something big happened in the river.”
Axi went out and opened the courtyard door, and what came in was a boy of thirteen or fourteen, wearing a He was wearing fisherman's clothes, his red face looked anxious, and he was panting heavily.
"Xiao Shi, please speak slowly." Ah Xi frowned.
"Sister Axi, where is Sister Bai? There are many corpses floating in the river from the upper reaches!" Xiao Shi took a few breaths, and after breathing well, he immediately said.
"She is in the inner courtyard. I will call her." Ah Xi said.
"No need to shout, Ah Xi, we are out."
Mo Anbai and Luo Xingchen walked out of the inner courtyard together, while A Yuan stayed to pack the food.
Since something terrible happened, they couldn't continue to sit there and have a good meal, so they might as well come out and listen.
"Sister Bai, the village chief asked me to come over and ask you to have a look." Xiao Shi's eyes lit up.
"Xiao Shi, you go first, we will follow."
"Okay!"
Xiao Shi turned and left.
"That child's name is Xiao Shi?" Luo Xingchen asked.
"Yes, their family wanted to have a son, but unfortunately they were a bit unlucky. They gave birth to nine daughters in a row, and the tenth was a son. Later, they were nicknamed Xiao Shi." Mo An Bai smiled and said.
"I see... should we go there now?" Luo Xingchen asked.
“Yes, let’s go now.”
