In the garden behind the manor, several people were sitting on vine-woven chairs under a pavilion.
The breeze blows on my face and the fragrance of flowers blooms.
Xu Ping put down his tea cup and said with a smile: "I'm from southern Guangdong, a small place, Renjia Town, you probably haven't heard of it."
Mr. Huo nodded, "Southern Guangdong produces talents. Mr. Xu, have you ever thought about coming to Hong Kong Island for development?"
"What do you mean?" Xu Ping asked.
"Mr. Xu is so virtuous, and he will definitely not be willing to just be an unknown person. If Mr. Xu is willing to come to my Huo family, I, Huo Guosheng, will definitely not treat Mr. Xu badly." Mr. Huo said seriously.
Good guy, this is Brother Xu... Wang Hongguang glanced at Xu Ping and was a little curious as to what he was thinking.
After all, there are many benefits to following the Huo family.
It's like Baitong Trading Company. Xu Ping is quite interested in it, but in the eyes of the Huo family, I'm afraid it's not worth mentioning at all.
Huo Zhinan did not sit down, but stood behind Mr. Huo, staring at Xu Ping with piercing eyes, waiting for his answer.
I even rejected Maoshan, not to mention... Xu Ping shook his head: "Thank you very much, Mr. Huo, for your kindness, but I, Xu Ping, am used to wandering around, and I am not someone who can settle down."
Huo Zhinan couldn't hide his disappointment in his eyes, and Mr. Huo in front of him also sighed and said, "Mr. Xu, won't you think about it again?"
"No!"
Xu Ping said simply: "Living in a corner is not what I, Xu Ping, want."
Mr. Huo didn't speak for a long time, and there was silence all around. Wang Hongguang even felt that the atmosphere was starting to become a little solemn.
But Xu Ping could tell that the old man in front of him was not a cultivator. He was just a man with a high position and some mysterious aura.
"In this case, my old man can't force it, lest he be a good person in vain..." Mr. Huo said calmly.
Being a villain in vain?
Xu Ping asked in surprise: "What does the old man mean by this? Can you please explain it clearly?"
I always feel like the person in front of me has something in his words and seems to know some secrets.
Mr. Huo looked into the distance, his eyes suddenly became deep, and there seemed to be a touch of sadness in his expression, "The world is about to be in chaos. I am just worried that people like Mr. Xu will be implicated in the general trend of the world.
"
The world is in chaos?!
Wang Hongguang's expression changed slightly, "He is in the police station and has unshirkable responsibilities. If this is really the case, he will be the first to be implicated."
This is impossible... He couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Huo, what do you mean by the chaos in the world?"
Not long after the feudal system was overthrown, warlords emerged everywhere, but overall, the situation was still under control, and it probably did not lead to chaos.
Mr. Huo shook his head and said nothing, as if he didn't want to say more.
Xu Ping had already guessed a thing or two.
The man in the north, headed by Yuan Datou, suddenly wanted to get his hands on his luck. The purpose was obviously that he wanted to be the emperor.
But who among the people in the world would agree with it?
Xu Ping glanced at Wang Hongguang and smiled: "The world is in chaos...just chaos, maybe we can create a prosperous age."
Such remarks were something Mr. Huo had never heard before.
The confidence and undoubt in his tone were unabashed.
"you……"
Mr. Huo was about to ask a few questions, but he opened his mouth but did not continue. In the end, he could only think that it was great to be young and have unlimited fantasies about the future.
It's just about bringing order out of chaos. It's not difficult... Xu Ping smiled and ended the topic, "Mr. Huo, let's get back to the topic. I wonder what you want to keep that body for?"
He glanced at Huo Zhinan, who also said: "Old man, speaking of that body, it belongs to Mr. Xu. Let's..."
Huo Zhinan didn't say what he said later, but what he actually meant was that we have to be honest, but if we say this, we will inevitably end up with two crutches.
Mr. Huo looked around, stepped back from the servants' bodyguards on the left and right, and then said: "Zhinan, please introduce to the two guests what kind of practice our Huo family practices."
Huo Zhinan responded, and said sternly to Xu Ping and Wang Hongguang: "My Huo family has two techniques passed down from our ancestors, one is to restrain demons, and the other is to control corpses."
"Mr. Xu and Hong Guang have also seen the function of the monster, which is to transfer the ability of the monster to oneself."
"Corpse control is quite similar to Maoshan's method of controlling corpses."
They want to keep the corpses and refine them into zombies... When Xu Ping heard this, he asked curiously: "But I heard you say, Brother Huo, that your Huo family basically doesn't practice corpse control techniques anymore, and even if it's about demon arresting,
, and basically stopped practicing, and just wanted to be an ordinary person."
Today, the Huo family is focused on running their business.
They are also slowly leaving the circle of practitioners and starting to transform into a business family. They probably feel that the times are progressing and there will be no need for practitioners in the future.
This strategic transformation of the entire family is actually easy to distinguish.
But why should I pick up these spells again?
Based on what Mr. Huo just said, could it be that the old man in front of him sensed in advance that the world was about to change, in order to protect his family's self-protection.
Thinking of this, Xu Ping did not hide anything and directly expressed his guess, "Mr. Huo, do you think that the family must have the ability to protect itself in the future, and that's why you decided to do this?"
Mr. Huo smiled heartily and praised: "Mr. Xu is indeed smart, and I will tell you the truth. I do hold this in mind, especially when I saw on the street today that there are some things in this world that cannot be dealt with with firearms.
"
it is as expected!
This reason is quite reasonable. Xu Ping thought about it and said: "Since the old man said so, the body will be handed over to the Huo family for disposal, and I will not interfere anymore."
"etc!"
Wang Hongguang suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice: "Old man, what news have you received? Could you please clarify it?"
What he did was a bit abrupt, but Mr. Huo was not angry. He just waved his hand and asked him to sit down. "Young man, don't be impatient. This matter will not be hidden from you in the first place."
As he spoke, his eyes drifted into the distance, looking at the location of the southern Guangdong continent, and said quietly: "There is a small country that covets our land of China. I am afraid that it will invade on a large scale in the near future."
"hiss!!!"
Wang Hongguang took a breath: "This is true."
"Absolutely true!"
Mr. Huo spoke firmly and vowed.
Xu Ping had guessed it a long time ago and patted Wang Hongguang on the shoulder, "Hongguang, do you still remember that construction site? That was a trick of the Japanese."
Wang Hongguang was deep in thought, but Mr. Huo looked surprised and couldn't help but look at Xu Ping again: "Mr. Xu, how did you know?"
Due to Hong Kong Island's unique geographical advantages and economic conditions, the Huo family's business is spread all over the world. It is not difficult to find out this information.
But Xu Ping was only one person and had never traveled overseas, so how did he know this?
This young man is indeed not simple!
Xu Ping smiled lightly: "Guess."
Of course Mr. Huo didn't believe it, but seeing that Xu Ping refused to tell him, he naturally stopped asking and turned around and said, "Actually, the reason why I want to recruit Mr. Xu is not only for the sake of my Huo family, but also because I plan to let Mr.
The Huo family is involved..."
Xu Ping waved his hand and said: "Old man, I understand what you mean. You want me not to stay out of it, right?"
Mr. Huo said: "Mr. Xu is really smart. Even if I didn't say it, you would have guessed it."
"As long as Mr. Xu is willing to take action in the future, the Huo family will definitely keep it in mind. Whatever Mr. Xu sees in the family's wealth, he can take it at will."
Looking at the elderly man in front of him, who seemed to suddenly become full of life at this moment, Xu Ping asked in astonishment: "Mr. Huo, with the current status of the Huo family in Hong Kong Island, he wants to stay out of the matter, and use this opportunity to
, I’m afraid it’s not difficult to make a windfall, why do you..."
"Because I am a descendant of the Yan and Huang Dynasties, the blood flowing in my body is also the blood of the Chinese land." Mr. Huo stood up on crutches, like an old pine tree, but still tall and tall.
He looked at Xu Ping in front of him with deep eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Xu, if you just think that my Huo family is just a family of merchants, then you are looking down on the Huo family too much."
"good!"
Xu Ping's eyes darkened and he said in a deep voice: "Mr. Huo, I'm afraid you have forgotten that I, Xu Ping, am also a descendant of the Yan and Huang Dynasties. Even if you don't tell me, Mr. Huo, I will definitely not ignore it."
…
On the way back, the two of them were sitting in the car. Wang Hongguang had something to say, but he hesitated because of the driver in front of him.
Xu Ping raised his hand to place a barrier so that the driver in front could not hear the conversation between the two, and then he said: "Hongguang, what do you want to ask?"
Wang Hongguang couldn't hold it in anymore and hurriedly said: "Brother Xu, do you believe what he said?"
When these remarks were made at this time, they were quite shocking. No wonder Wang Hongguang couldn't believe it.
Xu Ping said: "Of course I believe it."
When Wang Hongguang heard this, his expression was unusually solemn: "In this case, we should go back and notify immediately and make preparations in advance."
"Who do you want to inform?" Xu Ping looked intently at Wang Hongguang in front of him and said, "Who do you plan to inform? If there is no evidence, who will believe you?"
Wang Hongguang was stunned when he was asked. It seemed that it was indeed the case. The current situation was very complicated and the warlords were divided. It seemed useless to inform anyone.
"Then, shall we do nothing?" Wang Hongguang asked anxiously.
Xu Ping was very happy with Wang Hongguang's reaction, which also proved that he was definitely not a greedy person and would not become a traitor in the future.
"Of course it's not to do nothing..." Xu Ping shook his head: "After returning to the provincial capital this time, I need to tell your master this news secretly, and ask him to come forward to assemble all the monks in southern Guangdong and conduct a thorough investigation on the land of southern Guangdong to see if there are any Japanese
A den of endurance.”
A small Japanese food shop can do so many things. There is no guarantee that this situation will not happen in other places.
After all, the other party has been preparing for a long time, and the infiltration work must have never stopped.
"Education, medical care, warlords, police stations, business..." Xu Ping pointed out, "We must all investigate thoroughly, especially those places where Japanese people gather."
Wang Hongguang nodded: "Well, I will tell Master when I get back."
After that, he asked again: "But Master, he only has some influence in southern Guangdong. He is afraid that the same situation will happen in other places."
Xu Ping said: "I won't bother you to worry about this, I will take care of it."
You need to tell Uncle Jiu about this matter first, and contact Maoshan through Uncle Jiu. Maoshan is a well-known and upright person. It would be better for them to come forward than yourself.
It's also more believable.
The incident was too shocking, and Wang Hongguang needed to digest it. He got out of the car halfway and went to find Secretary Ruoyun to comfort him.
Xu Ping cursed and went straight back to the villa.
After entering the door, a figure as plump and ripe as a peach was seen, with her back to Xu Ping, busy.
It was just time for dinner, and delicious dishes were served one after another.
Looking at that busy figure, Xu Ping moved his index finger.
Perhaps when he heard the sound, Zhou Lianqing turned around and saw that he was alone. The smile on his face became even bigger: "Hey, didn't the red light come back?"
He's already got the secretary next to you, don't you know it yet?
Xu Ping touched his nose and smiled awkwardly: "He is busy with something, and I am the only one."
With that said, he walked to the dining table, took a deep breath, and asked, "Why are you cooking today?"
Zhou Lianqing's eyes were as bright as the moon, with an expression of joy, and her skin that could be broken by a blow seemed to be born with spring.
"I haven't cooked for a long time, and I want to practice my skills. Since the red light hasn't come back, I'll give it to you, Mr. Xu." Her tone was a little coquettish, and her cheeks were flushed. When she said this, she didn't dare to look at Xu Ping at all.
After a busy day, as soon as you walk in, there is a hot meal.
What more could you ask for!
The ordinary warmth and comfort spread around the two of them, as if there was a sweet smell floating in the air.
Xu Ping opened his arms with a bright smile on his face.
Suddenly seeing him making such an action, Zhou Lianqing was stunned for a moment, the smile on her face became even thicker, she ran over happily and threw herself into his arms.
"Xu, Mr. Xu..."
Feeling the delicate body in his arms, which was still trembling slightly, Xu Ping gently patted the hair scattered on his back, tenderness reverberating in his chest.
"You still call me Mr. Xu?"
Zhou Lianqing lay on Xu Ping's chest, feeling his heartbeat speeding up, and her face turned red again, "Then, what should I call you?"
The delicate body in my arms is soft and boneless, and the fragrance spreads on the tip of my nose. This is not the smell of the dishes, but the spring breeze emanating from the beauty in my arms.
Xu Ping smiled and said: "I call you Lianqing, you can call me whatever you like."
As they spoke, the two of them ignored the table of dishes and moved their footsteps unconsciously, slowly moving towards the room.
After entering the room, Xu Ping stretched out his foot and the door was closed, hiding the spring atmosphere in the room.
"..."
A circle of ripples spread out from the room, turning into vitality.
In the open space outside the villa, the original peach grove was gone, and it was replanted with various flowers, some of which were in full bloom, and some of which still had buds hanging on them.
Flowers that are not in the blooming season are also quietly blooming at this time, delicate and beautiful.
The flowers are in full bloom, and the fragrance overflows and spreads.
Honey-gathering bees and chasing butterflies suddenly circled over.
In a sea of flowers, bees and butterflies are flying together, chasing each other, and the scene is full of life.
