Chapter 151 Yunmeng

"Third sister..."

Cui Renfu was completely dumbfounded. Looking at the bloody and fleshy fragments on the ground, his face turned pale and his whole body was trembling.

Luo Keji had a meaningful expression on his face, and said with a half-smile: "Congratulations, you are now the new leader of the Cao Gang."

"Me, me?"

Cui Renfu slumped in his chair, without a trace of joy in his heart, and his expression was extremely dull.

After a while, he gradually came back to his senses, a stiff and miserable smile appeared on his face, he knelt down, put his forehead to the ground, and shouted devoutly: "Cui Renfu thanks you for your cultivation and support, I will never forget it."

Luo Keji nodded and smiled faintly, "I'll give you one month to sort out the Eighteen Waterways. If I hear any news about internal strife in the Cao Gang in the future, I'll hold you accountable."

Cui Renfu said: "I will keep it in mind, please rest assured."

Luo Keji stopped talking nonsense and walked straight out.

"Farewell, my Lord!"

Cui Renfu knelt down and turned to Luo Keji, watching him walk away in a swagger.

The members of the Cao Gang felt sympathetic, and when Luo Keji walked past them, they all knelt down on the ground at the same time.

Fang Zhixing followed Luo Keji and left. When he got on the boat, he tilted his head and saw that all the Cao Gang members were kneeling in a huge crowd. The scene was quite spectacular.

The internal strife among the Cao Gang, which had been going on for several months, was thus quelled.

Luo Keji suddenly appeared and solved all the disputes cleanly and neatly.

Simple and crude! No drag!

Luo Keji actually didn't care at all about how the old gang leader died or what the truth was.

The Cao Gang needs a leader, and he needs an obedient servant.

No matter how much you talk about it, things can be extremely complicated, or they can...

That's it!

"Well, mission accomplished."

Luo Keji boarded the warship, facing the wind, and smiled wantonly.

The strong wind from the lake was howling, carrying a hint of the scent of water plants, blowing the long hair behind Luo Keji's ears high up, giving people a feeling of high spirits.

"Let's go to the county town!"

At the command, the warship quickly left Lianpeng Lake, entered the tributary, and then turned into the magnificent Qingshui River.

Fang Zhixing sat quietly in the cabin, with the little dog lying obediently beside him.

"Damn it, this Luo Keji is moody and deep-minded, and it's totally unpredictable."

Xigou couldn't help but sigh.

Fang Zhixing curled his lips and replied, "I'm afraid this is the style of an elite child from a powerful family."

The children of the aristocratic families are of mixed quality, there are fools and there are elites.

Luo Kezhao is the former, while Luo Keji is the latter.

Xigou smacked his lips and said speechlessly: "Luo Keji and his father Luo Peiyun have completely different styles.

If you follow Luo Peiyun, you can work, slack off, and have fun as you please without any restrictions.

But if you follow Luo Keji, I'm afraid your life will be very difficult and hard."

Fang Zhixing grinned and said, “From Luo Keji’s performance, he is a person who doesn’t care about the process but only pursues the results.

Well, when serving a leader with this kind of personality, as long as we can give him the results he wants, he will most likely not interfere too much in the details. "

Xigou glared and said, "That's the problem. Luo Keji is moody and unpredictable. Who knows what kind of result he wants? If you are not careful, you might offend him."

Fang Zhixing pondered in silence.

"Brother Fang!"

Suddenly, Wen Yulin poked his head into the cabin from outside and waved, "The eldest master wants you to come over."

Fang Zhixing immediately perked up, walked out of the cabin and followed Wen Yulin.

He asked casually, as if chatting, "Brother Wen, are we almost at the county town?"

Wen Yulin nodded and replied without any emotion: "Well, we are still about thirty or forty miles away from the county town."

Only then did I realize that I had understood clearly and no longer needed to say more.

He and Wen Yulin were not very familiar with each other and could not chat for long, so they just started a conversation and that was it.

Fang Zhixing walked quickly into the command room and saluted, "Master, you summoned me. What do you want me to do?"

Luo Keji sat lazily, playing with a green apple in his hand, smelling the scent of the apple, and said lightly: "Ten miles ahead, there is a 'Yunmeng Villa'. You can run some errands and help me buy that villa. Don't worry about the price."

"Yes, sir!"

Fang Zhixing accepted the order without any hesitation.

Afterwards, Luo Keji did not introduce to him what "Yunmeng Villa" was, who the owner was, and why he wanted to buy that place.

Fang Zhixing chose not to ask any more questions and quickly left the command room.

Returning to the cabin, he asked everyone.

As a result, no one had ever heard of Yunmeng Villa.

Soon, the warship docked at the shore.

Fang Zhixing and Xigou got off the boat.

Wen Yulin came over and said, "Brother Fang, after you buy Yunmeng Villa, just wait there. The eldest master will be there soon."

Fang Zhixing said, "I understand."

The warship soon set off again, sailing forward and moving farther and farther away.

Seeing this, Xigou looked around and asked in surprise, "Where is that villa? Why can't I see it?"

They were now on the bank of the Qingshui River, surrounded by dense forests.

What comes into view is a simple ferry and a gravel road that extends deep into the woods.

Fang Zhixing's eyes flashed, and he immediately walked forward along the gravel road. Less than three miles ahead, a slope suddenly appeared at the end of his sight.

"Hey, there seems to be a mountain over there."

The thin dog raised his head and looked towards the top of the slope, where a corner of the eaves was vaguely visible.

Fang Zhixing climbed up the slope without saying a word and looked up.

At the end of the gravel road is a high-walled courtyard with numerous buildings and golden-roofed stone walls. It is even larger than Jingshui Villa.

From a distance, the architecture in the courtyard is quite exquisite, with various bird sculptures sitting on the roof, colorful and vivid.

There is a plaque across the gate with four large characters "Yunmeng Villa" written in gold on a red background.

Fang Zhixing pondered for a moment, stood on the top of the slope, and looked around.

Suddenly, he saw a wisp of green smoke rising from the woods below.

Fang Zhixing went down the mountain and headed straight towards the green smoke.

Xigou was surprised and asked, "Yunmeng Villa is right in front of us, why are you going there?"

Fang Zhixing replied, "We know nothing about Yunmeng Mountain Villa. If we go there rashly, we may suffer any consequences."

The little dog understood.

Fang Zhixing has this kind of character and never fights a battle without preparation.

After a while, they passed through the woods and suddenly saw a small fishing village by the river.

The small fishing village was only one or two miles away from where Fang Zhixing landed.

If Fang Zhixing had known earlier that there was such a small fishing village, he would naturally come here first to gather some information.

He glanced around and found several women in the fishing village sitting together, weaving fishing nets.

There were a few children playing in the water by the river not far away.

Not a single man was seen.

Seeing this, Xigou thought: "The men in this village should all be out fishing."

Fang Zhixing nodded and walked towards an older middle-aged woman.

As soon as they met, he took out some change and handed it over, smiling gently, "Sister, I'm just passing by. Can I ask you something?"

The woman was very wary at first, but when she saw the money, her expression instantly relaxed a lot and she smiled and said, "Young man, just ask."

Fang Zhixing pointed at Yunmeng Villa and asked, "Is there a big villa over there?"

The woman nodded and said, "Yes, that's Yunmeng Villa over there. It's very magnificent. I heard that it took seven or eight years to build it."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Fang Zhixing asked, "Who is the owner of the manor?"

The woman replied: "The owner of the manor is a woman. We call her 'Madam Yunmeng'."

Fang Zhixing frowned slightly and asked curiously, "Who is this Madam Yunmeng?"

The woman laughed and said, "I can't really tell you about that, but, hehehe, I heard that she is a woman kept by a certain big shot."

"Keeping a sponsor?"

Fang Zhixing felt that things were becoming more and more interesting. "Who is that important person?"

The woman spread her hands and said, "I really don't know about that."

Fang Zhixing understood, turned around, left the fishing village, and quickly returned.

He arrived at the gate of Yunmeng Villa and walked up to knock on the door.

Not long after, an old servant in gray opened the door. The old man had white hair and beard, and his eyesight did not look very good.

"Who are you?"

The gray-clothed old servant narrowed his cloudy eyes and looked at Fang Zhixing carefully, his expression slightly confused.

Fang Zhixing replied, "I am Zhixing from below. I have a big business to do, so I came to meet your owner."

The old servant in gray seemed to understand what he heard, and replied, "Please wait a moment, I will go and report it."

He turned and left.

After a moment, there was a creaking sound and the door opened completely.

The old servant in gray appeared again, stretched out his hand in a gesture of invitation, and said with a smile: "The owner of the manor invites you."

Fang Zhixing walked straight in, took a few glances at the place from time to time, and was even more shocked.

The pavilions, towers, ponds and waterside pavilions in the courtyard are reflected among the green pines and cypresses, creating a poetic and picturesque scene.

There are also rockery, strange rocks, flower beds, bonsai, vines and green bamboos, dotted around, creating a dazzling array of beautiful scenery.

For a moment, Fang Zhixing was extremely curious about who the owner of Yunmeng Villa was.

"This way, please."

An old servant in gray led the way and walked into a living room.

Fang Zhixing followed him into the room, and when he looked up, he saw a graceful woman, who should be less than 30 years old. She was very beautiful, with smooth and delicate skin and slender hands like jade, giving people an urge to touch her.

Fang Zhixing raised his eyebrows slightly, walked forward, and said with a bow, "I greet the owner of the manor."

The female owner stood up, her hair flowing like clouds, slightly curled, making her face look even more gentle and charming.

She bowed and said, "I don't deserve it. My name is Yunmeng. If you don't mind, you can call me Sister Yun."

Yun Meng paused, looked at Fang Zhixing deeply, and asked, "Excuse me, sir, how did you find this place?"

Fang Zhixing replied: "I have the guidance of an expert."

Yun Meng subconsciously squeezed her handkerchief when she heard that, and then asked, "So why are you here?"

Fang Zhixing was silent for a moment, then said bluntly, "I'm here to buy your villa on someone's request. The price is negotiable."

As soon as these words came out, Yun Meng's face changed drastically, and she was extremely nervous. She bit her lip and said, "Is it okay if I don't sell it?"

Fang Zhixing was stunned for a moment, observing her expression, and suddenly felt more confident, and said, "I'm sorry, Sister Yun, I'm afraid there's no room for negotiation on this matter."

Yun Meng suddenly sat down like a deflated ball, her expression full of anxiety.

Seeing this, Fang Zhixing vaguely guessed something and asked, "Excuse me, Sister Yun, are you the real owner of this villa?"

Yun Meng smiled bitterly, shook his head slightly, and sighed: "Since you have come here, you must have known that I am not the owner of the villa."

Suddenly, she looked up and asked, "Do you know where 'he' went?"

"he?!"

Fang Zhixing has an active mind and his brain is working quickly.

The dog looked around and shouted, "What the hell is going on? Everyone is a riddler! She thinks you know everything, but you know nothing."

Fang Zhixing remained calm and composed, without changing his expression, and asked, "When was the last time you heard from 'him'?"

Yun Meng sighed: "Since Qingguang County was captured by the rebels, he has disappeared. I have never seen him again and I don't know where he went."

Qingguang County!!

Could it be that he is the owner of this villa? !

The thin dog blinked and asked in a voice transmission, "Who is this woman talking about?"

Fang Zhixing replied, "The county magistrate of Qingguang County, Luo Tiantai."

Xigou couldn't help but shudder, and smacked his lips and said, "Is that Luo Tiantai who abandoned his wife and children, abandoned his confidants, and fled without a fight?"

Fang Zhixing replied, "That's him! There have been rumors for a long time that after Luo Tiantai escaped, he was afraid of being punished by his family, so he hid himself."

Xigou suddenly realized: "That is to say, Yunmeng is Luo Tiantai's kept woman."

Fang Zhixing also suddenly realized and sighed: "Good fellow, Luo Tiantai has a mistress hidden in his golden house, but his secret has been discovered by Luo Keji, wait..."

Thinking of this, Fang Zhixing shuddered suddenly. He stood up, walked in front of Rumeng, and stared at her.

"Sister Yun, Luo Tiantai is hiding here now, right?" he asked with a cold face.

Yun Meng looked flustered and said in surprise: "No, I don't know where he is."

Fang Zhixing interrupted, "Sister Yun, to tell you the truth, Luo Tiantai has been abandoned by the family. If you continue to follow him, nothing good will happen to you."

When Yun Meng heard this, she couldn't help but clench her handkerchief tightly, looking confused and helpless.

Fang Zhixing said seriously: "You live in seclusion here, and you are cut off from the news. You may not know the situation outside. Let me tell you about it.

Luo Tiantai had a son who was said to have an excellent talent for martial arts and was highly valued by his family. However, when he fled the city, he also abandoned his son, resulting in his son being killed by the rebels.

The family was very angry about his cowardly behavior and severe punishment was inevitable.

To be honest, Luo Tiantai is finished. He can't take care of himself, let alone protect you."

Yun Meng's face was filled with anxiety, tears welled up in her eyes, and she said anxiously: "But, what can I do? Without him, I have nothing."

Fang Zhixing said solemnly: "If you tell me where Luo Tiantai is hiding, I will give you a sum of money so that you can have food and clothing for the rest of your life.

If you continue to be stubborn, you will only be buried with him. That’s all I have to say.”
