I sat down on the sofa in the living room. A young maid brought me tea and then left quickly and silently.
Wei Ba's voice sounded.
"I suffered some injuries and am inconvenient, so I won't come out to see you. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
I didn't expose his lie and said, "I heard that the old immortal's treasure ship was on fire this morning, and I wanted to come and talk to the old immortal about something."
"Lang Zhengsheng's matter has been settled, there is no need to mention it again."
"Someone wants to use Lang Zhengsheng's hand to harm the old immortal!"
"Oh? Who wants to harm me?"
"There was something wrong with the female student that Lang Zhengsheng finally chose. Someone used it as a bait for Lang Zhengsheng. Before I went to call her soul, the police had already started investigating. The gangster who ran the sea baited and fished just for Lang Zhengsheng, not just for him. value."
"Why didn't you tell me then?"
"Old Immortal, it's better to do too much than to do too little. If I want to gain a foothold in a place like Jincheng where wealth can be gathered from all directions, I have to step less in the water that doesn't touch my shoes."
"Then why did you figure it out again today?"
"The treasure ship of the old immortal is on fire. I want to find someone to establish my authority. The battle between gods and gods is going to cause a big flood. I am afraid that I will be washed away. I come to give the old immortal some breath and find peace."
Wei Ba's voice was silent for a moment, and then he asked: "Is Mr. Ge the middleman for you to make peace with the Sanli Sect?"
"It's not about making peace, it's about making amends. The Sanli Sect borrowed Qian Mian Hu's hand to pick up the souls. I happened to treat a few of them. They didn't want to come to the door to make peace, but instead they knocked on the door and sent seven corpses to wish me a birthday. I was killed. He has become a man with a thousand faces and stepped into the field of soul selection of the Three Principles Sect. This is the principle of winning in a battle of wits."
"You worshiped the public servant and defeated the Paihua Gang. It doesn't make sense if you win."
"Old Immortal, I have made a mistake. I defeated Qian Mian Hu and the Three Principles Sect all based on my own ability. Qian Mian Hu himself does not recognize this truth. He tried to take a detour and ended up in the hands of the public, and he also wanted to drag me into it. , You can't blame me for not being careful. This seafarer leaves his boat surrounded by water, and he can't get through anywhere without a solid foundation."
"You have a plaque given to you by the official in your house. Do you dare to say that you didn't ask for help from the official?"
"Old Immortal, times have changed. If the government wants to use me, I can't refuse, but this has nothing to do with Thousand-faced Hu or the Three Principles. I, Zhou Cheng, walk upright and sit upright, and I can do everything under the sea. I will not step on my door." Extremely homeless."
"You can't be Mr. Haili if you have a public tiger skin. You can stay in Haicheng, but you can't be a disciple of the Earthly Immortal Society. Mr. Ge didn't mention this to you?"
"Mr. Ge accepted the hard-earned money I offered and only said that I should go to him if I had any problems. He didn't mention anything else."
"Mr. Ge is kind-hearted..." Wei Ba sighed, "You should be very grateful to Mr. Ge for his kindness recently."
I immediately stood up with an ugly expression on my face, "I accepted Mr. Ge's kindness from Mr. Zhou."
Wei Ba added: "Although we can't worship the Earthly Immortal Society, we are all brothers. I accept Brother Zhou's love. Please give me a gift for Brother Zhou. Last time, Fang Zhan brought two bottles of foreign wine."
This is the end of the talk to see off the guests.
"Thank you, Old Immortal, for the tip."
Yan Jing, who had a bandage on his arm, put on a straight face and sent me out the door, carrying a wine box with all the foreign characters written on it.
I saw that his eyes were not kind, so I asked, "Aren't you convinced?"
Yan Jing lowered his head first and said nothing.
I said: "Go back and ask you, old immortal, why you accept my love! I know that you are also a respectable elder brother in the Tao, no worse than He Si under Ge Xiu's sect, but in my eyes, you are nothing. No. Be convinced, hold it in, don’t seek death!”
Yan Jingxian remained silent.
I smiled, got on my bicycle, and headed back to Dahe Village, buying a lot of things along the way.
Passing by the police office, I saw that Lao Cao had not gotten off work yet, so he walked over and said, "Do you know what the relationship between Wei Jie and Wei Ba is?"
Lao Cao glared at me, "You went to see Wei Ba?"
I said, "Don't you always ask me to cause less trouble? It's better to make friends than to make enemies. I'll go visit the local old man and ask for peace. From now on, I can live a peaceful life as a doctor."
"Then you still ask about the relationship between Wei Jie and Wei Ba?"
"You always say that Qin Yuansheng is Wei Jie's apprentice, but Qin Yuansheng set up an evil formation in the Second Cotton Spinning Factory to train the evil ghost. The only requirement is that the evil ghost must be killed! I think I have no grievances with this old immortal Wei, and I have always thought I don’t understand why Qin Yuansheng wants to deal with me. I just went to see Wei Ba, and I met Qin Yuansheng, who is quite close to Wei Ba."
"Tell me the truth. Do you want to do something against the Earthly Immortal Society?"
"You old lady, you think highly of me. I am a foreigner with no roots. I have been in Jincheng for less than a month. Now I say that I want to call the gods to scrape the land, and the next time I say that I want to deal with the Earthly Immortals Society. What do you think? I really think I’m an immortal. Even if I have such ambitions, I don’t have the ability, right? I’m not afraid to tell you the truth, my biggest goal is to squeeze into the Earthly Immortal Association, and I will have the chair of the old immortal.”
Lao Cao sneered and said: "You are wearing a tiger's skin and want to tread water. You are really ambitious. OK, let me tell you the truth. Wei Jie and Wei Ba are brothers. Chang Laoxian dominated Jincheng back then. , took in thirteen disciples. The year he was shot, four of them died trying to escape from prison. Later, he tried to incite believers to cause trouble and killed three more. The whereabouts of two are unknown, one escaped to Taiwan, and there are two left. It's Wei Jie and Wei Ba. However, the two of them are fighting so fiercely for Chang Laoxian's mantle that they can't even urinate in the same pot. It would be nice if they don't fight to the death immediately when they meet. It's impossible for them to work together. "
I asked: "What happened to Qin Yuansheng?"
Lao Cao said: "It is true that Qin Yuansheng is Wei Jie's apprentice, but it was Wei Ba who introduced him to Wei Jie back then, so he has a good relationship with both Wei Jie and Wei Ba. The two of them have not yet fought to the death, they just rely on Qin Yuansheng He acts as a peacemaker. Qin Yuansheng has been doing things for both sides in the past few years. I guess these two people are probably planning to stay at each other until they die, and then the orthodox mantle will be passed to Qin Yuansheng. "
I said sincerely: "You are really well-informed. There is nothing in the world of Jincheng that you don't know."
Lao Cao said impatiently: "I am just a small policeman, how much can I know? These are all old relationships from back then, a bunch of old men buried in dirt, just spreading some gossip, don't expect anything else." Zhao Kailai They’re not even pointing their fingers at us, so don’t let us old guys work for you.”
He paused and then said: "Zhao Kailai agreed. You two will have a private chat at the same time tomorrow night at the same place. I won't go there. Remember to bring wine. Because he was injured in southern Xinjiang, people around him are watching carefully. Don't let him drink. Give him something to satisfy his cravings. Tell him what you want to say directly, no need to beat around the bush. He's a man who says what he says. If it works, it will work. If it doesn't work, it won't work. He never sets up an ambush."
"Thank you. I'll think of some good wine for you later."
"Come on, I'm afraid I'll die if I drink that wine of yours and retire."
I laughed, threw the pork head I bought on his table, turned around and left.
Lao Cao is lying.
However, it is understandable and there is no need to worry about it.
Sister Miao once said that when walking in the world, you should not rub sand in your eyes when life is at stake. You should understand that it is difficult to be confused at ordinary times.
When I returned to the small courtyard, I saw Yang Xiaowen standing in front of the entrance of the courtyard far away.
I couldn't help but have a headache.
Is this woman so evil that she still wants to cross the bridge with me?
Crossing the bridge is not a big deal, the key is getting into too much trouble.
Sister Miao's last lesson, the word "sex" has a knife on her head.
What's behind Yang Xiaowen is not one knife, but countless knives. A charlatan like me will be chopped into pulp if I'm not careful. The fireworks before were not enough to watch.
"Comrade Yang, why are you here again? Didn't Captain Zhang tell you? He's going to take me up the mountain to check on the situation at the weekend. You go back and wait for news."
Yang Xiaowen said calmly: "I heard what Uncle Zhang said, but I don't want to wait any longer. I want to try the second method."
