Chapter 188 The Sneaky Man
Is someone trying to find out about me?
Liang Qu frowned, realizing that things were not simple.
“I thought, how can I tell him?
I am illiterate, but every day when I pass by Huangyang Alley and listen to the storyteller telling stories, I know everything about it.
As the emperor said, you cannot eat a dish more than three times. If you eat more than three times, you have to be careful that the dish may be poisoned next time.
When you go out on patrol, you have to split into three teams to hide from others and avoid ambushes. Many things may seem normal, but you can't make up stories!"
Aunt Zhang kept on talking, and became more and more fluent, without any sign of worry or fear as before.
"Aunt Zhang, did you reject him?"
Aunt Zhang smiled awkwardly.
"The boss is a very good boss. I still remember the two small coins he gave me last time. Of course I know I shouldn't tell him, but that guy has a thick face and I was afraid he would hold a grudge against me, so I didn't dare to refuse..."
Aunt Zhang said hurriedly, fearing that Liang Qu would be angry.
"But the lady lied to him and lied about the time, saying that the boss would go out at 3:30 . every day and 1:15 . every day... Boss, please don't fire me."
Liang Qu laughed and took out two small ingots from his sleeve, weighing a total of four taels, and handed them to Aunt Zhang.
"Mrs. Zhang is very thoughtful. He gave you two taels and I'll give you four taels. Next time you encounter something like this, don't lie. Tell the truth to avoid getting into trouble. Just tell me in private."
It is not easy for others to deal with you, let alone deal with an ordinary person.
You want others to risk their lives for just a few hundred copper coins a month?
Liang Qu couldn't do it himself, but Aunt Zhang came to tell him, which showed her deep love and loyalty.
Aunt Zhang was delighted when she received the silver and kept thanking him.
What I have earned working for Liang Qu's family in the past six months is more than what I have earned working for other families in the past few years!
After finding out what the person who was asking the questions looked like, Liang Qu told Aunt Zhang not to worry and to just focus on her work.
evening.
Liang Qu put a rag under the kettle, took the red-hot copper kettle, brewed a cup of April new tea for the old monk and himself, and stopped Aunt Zhang who was cleaning up the dishes.
"It's not too dark yet. There are many people on the street. Go home early. You can wash the dishes tomorrow."
Thinking of the fierce man who asked the questions, Aunt Zhang's heart began to beat fast. She quickly put down the rag, packed up her things and prepared to leave.
Liang Qu presented the teacup.
"Master, have you seen any sneaky people in recent days?"
The old monk put his hands together.
"Never."
Never...
Liang Qu seemed to be thinking about something.
The old monk didn't notice it, so the other party must not have approached Liang's house.
After Aunt Zhang packed her things, she got on the bamboo basket. Liang Qu flashed into the bedroom and when he came out he was already wearing arm guards and inner armor. He followed Aunt Zhang out of the wooden door.
I followed her all the way and saw with my own eyes that Aunt Zhang entered the house. Nothing happened and no one followed her.
"Who on earth is trying to get information about me?"
Liang Qu leaned against the alley and thought.
He was trying to secretly inquire about my whereabouts and asked Aunt Zhang not to tell me. He must have bad intentions.
Could it be one of Wei Lin’s men?
Liang Qu suddenly thought of his real boss in name only.
On that day, when a major case occurred in Fengbu County, Xu Yuelong summoned people and was determined to eradicate similar fish gangs while Wei Lin and his people were unable to react.
Although Liang Qu did not go with them, he knew that Xu Yuelong's men had stole the limelight in this operation.
There are no fish gangs as big as the Whale Gang in the surrounding counties, but there are just as many fat fish and big shrimps.
With the first-mover advantage, Wei Lin only got a few contributions, so he was naturally not in a good mood.
It is unlikely that he would be directly targeted by Wei Lin. Little He Bo is not so shameless. But it is very likely that he would be targeted by his subordinates.
Who doesn’t want to please their boss?
Liang Qu himself once caught fish for Xu Yuelong.
After waiting for half an hour and making sure that nothing had happened, Liang Qu returned home and did not ask the old monk to do anything.
If the other party really has the ability to crush me to death, there would be no need to be so careful.
Either you don't have enough strength or status, there's no need to go crying to your parents.
Not to mention that Liang Qu has condensed a golden body of dragon and tiger, which gives him an extra powerful trump card. In addition, the Yinglong pattern travels around the six voids. If he can't beat him, he has the confidence to escape.
On the bright side, maybe there's a girl who's taken a fancy to me and is trying to find out where I am so she can meet me by chance?
Liang Qu’s thinking is divergent.
……
"Lord Lu, the anchor is about to be cast. Please wait a moment and have a cup of tea!" In the blacksmith shop, Li Yuan swung a hammer to break the shell, took out the casting, polished it a little, and walked into the yard with two other blacksmiths carrying a two-meter-long anchor.
Forging ordinary tools does not require the help of a martial arts master, and ordinary apprentices can make them.
Li Yuan, Lu Gang's new apprentice, naturally took on this important task.
"Lord Lu, the anchor has been cast and is exactly as drawn on the blueprint. Please check it."
Lu Ren walked forward, picked up the anchor with one hand, looked left and right, with a look of satisfaction on his face, but sneered in his heart.
Not to mention the weird shape of the head, it can't get into the mud at all.
Are two claws better than four and easier to hook into the mud and sand?
whimsical.
I'm afraid you'll lie down as soon as you get into the water, and you won't be able to stick to the mud for several miles.
Ran Zhongshi was really out of his mind, making himself such a useless thing.
There is no other way. I have to run around for a word from my superiors. I can only think about it in my heart and still have to continue to receive the salary.
Lu Ren took out his purse from his pocket.
"Thank you, little brother. Can you count the amount of silver?"
"Yes, thank you, Master Lu."
Under the big ship.
"Hey, you guys, come over here and load the anchor!"
Lu Ren threw down the anchor, ordered a few soldiers to come over to work, and left a word.
"See if this anchor works. Tell the chief clerk if it works or not. Write a document. You don't need to show it to me. Just show it to Lord Ran."
"Yes! Your lord!"
……
underwater.
Liang Qu sat cross-legged on the giant clam, nourishing his viscera and leaving 30% of his qi and blood.
He returned to the barge, unsealed the medicine cap, poured it into his hands and counted it. There were only eight pills left.
"I'm almost done with the Sturgeon King Bone Pills. I'm also going to break through. Once I do, coupled with the increase in my fusion level, the big monsters in the water won't be able to do anything to me, right? I'm really going to be the tyrant in the water."
His spear skills, archery skills, golden body skills, and martial arts skills are all improving steadily, and his realm is about to take a big step forward. Liang Qu suddenly felt heroic.
Taking a look at the moonlit night sky, he took out the bed from the waterproof compartment.
I'm not going home tonight, I'm sleeping on the boat!
Ever since he found out that someone was secretly tracking his whereabouts, Liang Qu stopped appearing at regular intervals.
Except for a few days of "fishing" according to the time period specified by Aunt Zhang to avoid being affected by the other party, he would take a nap on the boat from time to time.
As for home.
The old monk is here, someone really needs to go over there...
"By the way, Lao Bei, there is a pond next to my house. You can follow Ah Fei over there tomorrow. You will be closer to the water and it will be more comfortable to bask in the sun."
"Don't lie to me, there is a bald old monk living in your house!"
"Hey, how do you know?"
Awei crawled out of Liangqu's pocket, pointing his two tentacles at the fat catfish that was gnawing on the fish's head.
The fat catfish raised its head, very proud.
Liang Qu laughed: "I'm just kidding. It's true that the giant clam is one of the seven treasures of Buddhism, but monks don't kill people. They won't kill you and then take your shell."
"Is this true?"
"really!"
The old giant clam was immediately moved.
Who doesn’t want to soak in the water and bask in the sun?
Think about it for a long time.
"I'll trust you for now, let me give it a try!"
The next day.
Liang Qu cleaned up the pond.
A soldier in black came to the door.
"Master Liang, Master Ran wants to see you."
