Chapter 173 Cao Wujiu Fished Himself (Part [-])

Stars move, years go by, since Xiao Jing left Junshan to go to Dadu, half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Zhao on Junshan looks forward to the stars and the moon every day, thinking of his early return, but the person he misses never appears.

After Xiao Jing left the Beggar Gang, Shi Huolong presided over the major affairs of the gang, and several elders assisted from the side. Among them, Cao Wujiu, the leader of the beggar gang who has been sitting in the rear, is his trustworthy right-hand man.

It is indeed not easy to say that this is Cao Wujiu.He is very good at martial arts. Back then, he beat water bandits all over the world with a fishing rod.More importantly, he is quite literate and extremely talented in handling common affairs. He is the talent who is the best at managing affairs among the elders of the beggar gang.

Therefore, whether it was the era of the old leader Xiao or the era of the younger leader Xiao, he lived like a fish in water and had a respected status.

He is a loyal and loyal person, and he has always won the trust of the leader and the support of the members.

But he also has a shortcoming that is not considered a shortcoming, that is, good wine, and often he can't walk when he encounters good wine, and he can't control it when he drinks it. He often gets drunk in restaurants and is sent back to Junshan by his disciples.

Fortunately, Yuezhou is the base camp of the Beggar Gang. As a powerful local snake, naturally, it will not let its elders be in danger under their noses.So although he often drank in a daze, not knowing where to go, but for so many years, nothing happened.

On this day, the snow that had been falling for three or four days in a row finally stopped, and the long-lost sunshine also appeared in the sky. The morning of the first clear after the snow was beautiful and flawless.

After Cao Wujiu got up, he dealt with the backlog of things in the gang, looked up at the sky, the sun was shining, the sky was clear, and the cool fresh air was inhaled into the chest, which made people feel very comfortable. He faced the blue sky, Can't help showing a comfortable smile.

Although Cao Wujiu is good at handling common affairs, he is an active person at heart. After several days of heavy snow and freezing, the sky and the earth outside are the same color, there are no birds and no trees, and there is no interesting thing that can make him come to light. He has long been bored very uncomfortable.

Now that there is nothing wrong, Cao Wujiu can't help reverting to his old ways, he wants to go out for a while, and also wants to drink a few cups at the Taibai Building in Baling County.After all, Taibailou's Shixian wine is still very strong, even an old wine bug like him should say hello after drinking it.

Although the name of this restaurant is covered with Li Taibai, the exiled immortal in the Hundred Poems of Fighting Wine, but from the point of view of wine, it is not considered to have insulted the word Taibai.

But thinking about it, he felt that drinking alone really lacked a bit of taste, so he ran excitedly to call the other elders to go with him.But the few elders who stayed on Junshan either had something to do with them, or they didn't drink much, and they didn't want to follow them to find their way.

So, Cao Wujiu went around and found that no one could accompany him to get drunk, so he had to go alone very depressed.Although it's a little less fun to be alone, it's better to have a drink than to hang out on Junshan.

He went back to the house to get the fishing rod, took a big iron bowl, and went straight to a small boat. Under the help of his disciples, the small boat quickly sailed towards the opposite bank.

Cao Wujiu leaned on the boat, lowered the fishing rod, lowered the baited hook into the water, and caught fish while following the boat's movement.

It stands to reason that fishing is not only a technical job, but also in a quiet and motionless environment. It is a test of one's patience. You have to sit still for a long time before the fish can take the bait.Fishing on a fast boat like him, the fish will never take the bait when they see the moving bait.

But Cao Wujiu is so miraculous, I don't know if his technique is too good, or the fish in the water are too stupid, when the boat docked, there was more than four feet long in his big iron bowl filled with half of the water The fat fish were swimming back and forth.

Cao Wujiu put away his fishing rod, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, holding an iron bowl, he leisurely appeared on the street all the way.

Due to the fine weather, the people who were forced to stay at home for several days had already started to work hard. The whole street was filled with people of all kinds trying to survive, and it was more lively than usual.

Holding a big iron bowl, Cao Wujiu appeared in everyone's sight with a smile on his face.Many people are already familiar with this kind elderly man who often gets drunk in restaurants and is carried home by his relatives and friends. He also chose good wine to drink, so it must be someone with a certain status, at least not the precarious suffering like them haha.

Cao Wujiu responded to those who came to say hello one by one with a smile, thinking about how much to drink today is enough, although he would plan like this every time before drinking, and then forget about it every time.

He looked at the few live fish in the bowl and wondered how to cook them.Although his mind was full of delicious food and wine, he walked towards Taibai Tower without any hesitation.

Just when he turned a street corner and the Taibai Tower was in sight, he saw a young man in his thirties with thick eyebrows and big eyes walking towards him.

The young man's complexion was slightly dark, and he had a bold face, which gave people a sense of stability, reliability, and heroism.When he saw Cao Wujiu, his eyes lit up, surprise appeared on his face, he hurried over a few steps, cupped his hands and said: "Elder Cao, this junior has finally found you, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Cao Wujiu glared, said: "This good man looks at me, how can he know me, old beggar?"

The youth said: "Elder Cao is the elder with the greatest contribution, the most respected status, the best character, and the highest martial arts in the Beggar Clan. He is famous all over the world. How dare the younger generation not recognize dignity?"

Although Cao Wujiu knew that the other party was flattering him, but he never flattered him. The young man used the word "most" four times in a row, and he still said a few words with joy, thinking that although the old man doesn't often fight in the world But I didn't expect there to be a legend about me in the Jianghu, which is really wonderful.

Seeing Cao Wujiu's happy expression, the young man couldn't help but feel secretly happy, he said: "I don't know how convenient it is for Elder Cao? This junior has something important to tell you about the survival of the Beggar Clan."

Cao Wujiu's face changed slightly, and he said displeasedly: "Boy, don't talk nonsense. My Beggar Clan has been flourishing in recent years. Its power has shaken the martial arts world. It is the most prosperous time. The leader of the gang is superb in martial arts and resourceful. He just led a group of heroes in Kunlun Mountain. Frustrating the Tartar conspiracy and gaining the admiration of heroes, how can something serious enough to threaten the survival of our gang appear?"

The young man looked around, approached mysteriously, and said, "What if this matter is related to the leader of your clan Xiao?"

"Huh?" Cao Wujiu frowned, and said to the young man, "Is it related to the gang leader? Well, let's talk about it in detail, if you don't say that you are ugly today, don't blame the old beggar for turning his face and not recognizing anyone."

The young man smiled and said: "The younger generation admires the chivalrous spirit of your gang very much, and even highly respects the character and martial arts of senior Cao, and regards it as a role model in life. How dare you talk nonsense in front of the senior. It's just a long story. It's hard to tell for a while, why not let the junior be the host, and talk while eating in the Taibai Tower?"

Cao Wujiu thought for a while and said: "Okay, it's up to you, but you have to drink enough." The two walked into the Taibai Tower one by one.
