I am getting stronger and stronger in the world of demons and monsters
Chapter 608 Master
After a while,
Lin Xuankong, along with several servants and the steward Miao Youren, headed towards the western courtyard.
After Lin Xuankong, Miao Youren, Miao Wan'er and others left the hall,
Ma Nanfeng, sitting on the armchair, frowned and looked at Miao Yunhu beside him, revealing an expression of disappointment.
"I told you two days ago that a big shot who can influence the situation in the three northern states will live in Qinghuju for a period of time and learn about the situation of the war between Jizhou and the Wei tribe!
Even County Magistrate Huang and others in Qingyuan County didn't know about this. It was revealed to me secretly by my elder sister who is the director of the Military Intelligence Department in Jizhou. As a result, you didn't seize the opportunity to spend more time there?
Do you know that if you can meet the big shot who lives in seclusion in Qinghuju and say a few words to him, or get his favor, you as the director of the Inspection Bureau will definitely be able to rise rapidly. If everything goes well in the future, even after a dozen years, you may be able to sit in my father's position!
But these past two days you have been going to the Inspection Bureau to take care of those small matters of catching thieves and robbers, and today you even went to the restaurant to greet a poor man. Do you plan to achieve anything big by doing those small things of catching thieves and robbers and winning over these poor men? To become a high-ranking official?"
Miao Yunhu frowned upon hearing this and sighed:
"I am the director of the Patrol Bureau of Qingyuan City. Of course, I have to maintain the stability of Qingyuan City and manage the big and small matters of the Qingyuan City Patrol Bureau. If I don't do the work of catching thieves and robbers, who will take care of it? Am I going to be like the county magistrate Huang of Qingyuan County, who only cares about gold, silver, jewelry, fine wine and beautiful women to make you happy?
The big shot you mentioned who can influence the situation in the three northern states, since he has quietly come to Qinghu to live in seclusion, he definitely doesn't want to be disturbed. If I, a small director of the Inspection Bureau, go there every day, wouldn't that be annoying? If I meet that big shot after I go there, not only will I not get any favor, but I may even arouse disgust!
As for what you said about Lin Qiang being a poor man, yes, his family has indeed fallen into poverty, but his father saved my life, and he has been my lifelong brother for many years. If the descendants of my lifelong brother come to me for help in times of trouble, and I don’t take good care of them, then who will sincerely help me when my brothers know about it! Moreover, Lin Qiang is quite talented and handsome. In my opinion, if I give him some tasks, he will definitely achieve something in the future!"
Seeing her husband say this, Ma Nanfeng's expression changed involuntarily, from gloomy to pitiful.
"Okay, okay, I have no objection to you taking care of that poor guy a little bit, so that others won't gossip about him.
But you have to listen to my advice. You should go to Qinghuju these days. I'm not asking you to go to that big shot with great fanfare. Just pretend to meet him by chance! If you miss such a good opportunity, how can you make it out with your stupid donkey-like temperament? I, Ma Nanfeng, fell in love with you because I thought you had great ambitions. Do you plan to be a small and insignificant inspection bureau chief for the rest of your life and die in this desolate Qingyuan County?
Even if you don't consider yourself, you have to consider me and the children! Do you want to see your children's cousins prosperous and wealthy every year when you go to Jizhou, while your children are just ordinary people?
When will you be able to focus more on promotion? Besides, your talents and abilities cannot be fully utilized in such a small inspection bureau!"
Speaking of this, Ma Nanfeng was already in tears.
This woman has some good tricks. When she saw that force didn't work, she put on a pitiful look!
Miao Yunhu was immediately overwhelmed when he saw this, and sighed again: "Okay, don't be like this, I'll listen to you, in the next few days, I'll take time to go to Qinghuju more often!"
When Ma Nanfeng saw Miao Yunhu agreed, she wiped her tears and said with a smile, "I knew that I, Ma Nanfeng, was definitely not wrong back then!"
In the west wing of the Miao Mansion, there is a small courtyard where guests live.
Lin Xuankong stood in the courtyard and looked around. Although the courtyard was not big, it covered an area of 300 to 400 square meters. The north house had three main rooms with bright windows and desks. There were three small rooms on the west and east sides, which were the residences of male and female servants and the firewood room and kitchen.
Miao Youren, who was standing next to him, came over and said with a smile, "Master Lin, in previous years, this courtyard was used by Master Miao to entertain distinguished guests. At least, only prominent gentry would be qualified to live in these courtyards of our Miao family. Although this courtyard may not be as good as the house Master Lin originally lived in, after all, you are the eldest master of the Lin family, but it is also one of the best courtyards in our Miao family for entertaining guests. It can be seen that Master Miao likes and cares about you very much!
Now that these houses have been cleaned up, Master Lin, why don't you go to the main house and rest for a while? If you plan to eat something in the evening, just tell Youren. As long as it can be found in Qingyuan County, Youren can prepare it for you!"
What to eat
Lin Xuankong's eyes couldn't help but move.
Although I had used the Blood Spirit Technique to absorb the blood and vitality of several large river fish weighing several kilograms at the restaurant, that amount of blood and vitality was far from enough to heal the chronic illness of this body! Moreover, this body itself was not particularly strong, and was even a little weak. If I wanted to improve my strength as quickly as possible, I needed more blood and vitality from living creatures!
After a brief thought, Lin Xuankong said, "Is there a larger fish pond nearby? I like eating fish, and I like fresh fish that I catch myself even more!"
Love fish? Thinking of the time in the restaurant, Young Master Lin in front of him had already ordered several river fish, and now he even wants fish! Miao Youren couldn't help but mutter in his heart, secretly saying: Young masters from wealthy families really have unique hobbies! However, according to the instructions of Master Miao Yunhu, Young Master Lin in front of him has enough money to spend every month, so he can have whatever he likes!
Thinking of this, Miao Youren smiled, "Master Lin is indeed a man of taste. Speaking of fishing, the best places to fish around the county are Qingshui River and Qinghu Lake! If Master feels that he has recovered, I can arrange a carriage and guards to take you there at any time!"
"It has recovered a lot. Let's go wash the horse now. I'll be there in a moment!" Lin Xuankong said decisively.
Miao Youren was stunned when he heard this, and he muttered to himself again, but a smile appeared on his face, "Okay, okay, then I'll arrange it now!"
After two incense sticks,
Lin Xuankong was sitting in the carriage comprehending some tricks of the Blood Spirit Technique when Miao Youren's voice came from outside, "Master Lin, we have arrived at Qingshui River!" Lin Xuankong lifted the curtain on the small window of the carriage and looked out. He saw a river about ten feet wide. On this side of the river, there were five or six pavilions that were quite exquisitely built. Two of them were occupied by people fishing. On both sides of the carriage that Lin Xuankong was riding in, there were seven or eight strong guards who were looking around and looked quite alert!
After getting off the car, Lin Xuankong walked straight to the pavilion, while Miao Youren moved all the fishing gear, bait, etc. over.
At this time,
In a pavilion nearby, two fair-faced and handsome men in military uniforms came over immediately when they saw someone coming to this pavilion.
Miao Youren took a look and immediately bowed to the two of them and said, "Captain Liang, Commander Wei, you two are here to fish today too!"
Among the two men in military uniforms, the tall and thin man nodded slightly, looked at Lin Xuankong, and asked with some doubt: "Miao Youren, don't you work at the Shifang Restaurant? You are not busy at the restaurant today, so how come you have time to come here to accompany others fishing? Who is this young master from the Miao family? Why have I never seen him before!"
Miao Youren said with a smile: "Chief Liang, this young master is the descendant of a close friend of our Master Miao. He just came to Qingyuan City recently. It is normal that Chief Liang does not recognize him!"
After that, he said to Lin Xuankong: "These two are the commanders of the Linzi Camp in Qingyuan City. The one who is speaking is Liang Yucheng, the younger brother of Liang Tuanlian, and the other one is Wei Hong, the deputy commander. Both of them are big figures in charge of thousands of officers and soldiers. In our Qingyuan City, their reputations are not much different from our Master Miao!"
At this time, Lin Xuankong was planning to catch a big fish weighing several hundred kilograms and absorb its blood and vitality. He had no time to be polite with these people.
Just thinking that he would have to hang out in Qingyuan City for some time in the future, and that the two men did not look like overbearing guys, and they were quite polite to a small shopkeeper of the Miao family, so Lin Xuankong nodded at them and said with a smile: "My name is Lin Qiang, nice to meet you two, I'm new here, and I'll need your care in the future!"
Liang Yucheng, a tall, thin, handsome man, waved his hand. "Director Miao is well-known in our Qingyuan City. Even the county magistrate, my brother Liang Tuanlian, and Captain Lu often interact with him and support each other. Brother Lin, since you are Director Miao's man, you can do whatever you want in Qingyuan City! Brother Lin, don't be so polite. We are brothers from now on!"
The officer next to him, Wei Hong, bowed to Lin Xuankong, then looked at the fishing gear at Lin Xuankong's feet with a little excitement, and said with a smile: "Since Brother Lin also likes fishing, then we can go together. Fishing is about fishing together. It will be more interesting if we have a competition with each other!"
After saying that, he waved to several soldiers in another pavilion, and those soldiers immediately brought all the fishing gear and fish buckets from the pavilion over there.
Miao Youren, who was standing next to him, saw this and winked at Lin Xuankong, then smiled and said, "It's great that the two officers plan to go fishing with Master Lin. I heard that among all the masters and officers in Qingyuan City, Officer Liang and Officer Wei are very good at fishing. Even Master Miao of my family would praise you two when he occasionally mentioned fishing, saying that among all the fishing masters he had seen, whether it was using bait, making nests, or fishing, you two were masters among masters!"
Liang Yucheng and Wei Hong laughed when they heard this and waved their hands, saying that Master Miao was the real fishing master, but he was busy with official duties and had neither the energy nor the time to spend on fishing.
Lin Xuankong's original intention was to concentrate on fishing and killing fish, but now these two guys were so enthusiastic, it was difficult to refuse, so he had to agree.
After a while,
The three of them each chose a spot to fish in the pavilion, which took up a large area.
Liang Yucheng held the fishing rod while looking at Lin Xuankong, and whispered: "Since Brother Lin is from the Miao Mansion and is the descendant of Director Miao's best friend, I think he is quite close to Miss Miao Wan'er. I wonder when Brother Lin will be free next time to come fishing with Miss Miao Wan'er! I heard that Miss Miao's fishing skills are also good. Yucheng has long wanted to learn from Miss Miao!"
When Lin Xuankong heard this, he finally understood that this guy came to fish with him for other purposes, and he was speechless.
After casually dealing with this guy with a few words, Lin Xuankong concentrated on fishing.
Normally, whether in his previous life or during the more than 10,000 years of cultivation in the Golden Dragon World, Lin Xuankong rarely fished, let alone had any fishing skills! But his soul was a true immortal soul after all. Even though his soul in this Absolute Spirit World was only an extremely weak trace of soul, it still had the foundation of the immortal realm!
With such a powerful soul with a celestial foundation, its sensing ability is many times higher than that of ordinary people, let alone the souls of the most sensitive creatures in this spiritual world!
With this ability, Lin Xuankong relied on hearing, touch, vision, etc. to observe the changes in the water flow and the movement of fish in the water. It was like he was using a cheat code!
Everything beneath the water,
When Lin Xuankong concentrated his energy and sensed it, it was as if he was 100% transparent. The movements of the fish seemed to have slowed down by hundreds of times! Which position had more fish, which fish was biting the hook, and which fish was faking it, Lin Xuankong could sense it clearly!
In this situation, Lin Xuankong, who used the best fish food, bait, fishing rod and hook, was able to grasp the timing accurately and fish at an abnormal speed!
Only half an hour had passed.
The dozen buckets that Lin Xuankong had Miao Youren prepare in advance were all filled up, and the fish caught were more than 200, most of which were three or four pounds! In other words, in just one hour, Lin Xuankong caught a full 800 pounds of river fish! But because Lin Xuankong's current body was too weak, he really didn't have the strength to continue fishing, and he didn't have enough energy to continue to concentrate his mind. Otherwise, if he continued fishing for a few more hours, all the fish near the pavilion would probably be caught by Lin Xuankong!
During this one hour, the two officers of the nearby military camp, Liang Yucheng and Wei Hong, only caught more than 30 fish in total, which was not even half full of a wooden barrel. This kind of comparison made these two so-called fishing masters of Qingyuan City feel numb!
