97　　The meaning is very clear. If I can steal your teapot, I can also break your arm. So just be honest.

　　Yu Biao glanced at Wu Hong at this time, and was actually convinced that Chen Jie was the murderer of his son.

　　If the murderer wasn't guilty, Wu Hong would have needed to come out to stop it.

　　Yu Biao hid his hands behind his back. Chen Jie looked at him with a smile on his face and said, "Manager Yu, you don't think I killed your son, do you? This is not a Hongmen Banquet!"

　　Yu Biao squinted his eyes and said, "Oh, Yu's guess is wrong?"

　　Chen Jie said with a fake smile: "That's definitely not right. Young Master Sanliu and I hit it off right away and got along very well. Why would I kill him?"

　　"As for you saying that he misses my wife, then I also miss his wife. We are just having fun with each other. You misunderstood!"

　　"Yeah?"

　　Yu Biao was basically certain at this time that it was him, and these words sounded like a provocation.

　　But he couldn't get angry now. He didn't know to what extent Wu Hong had recovered, and he didn't dare to act rashly.

　　At this time, he suppressed his resentment and glared at Chen Jie, saying, "Jiu Si, I liked you the moment I saw you. Since you mentioned my son, I have something to say. I will definitely avenge my son, no matter who this person is or how strong his backing is, I will avenge him."

　　Chen Jie laughed and said, "Well, I understand your feelings. Don't be too nosy. Some people are not someone you can retaliate against. You might even lose your life. Is it worth it?"

　　"value!"

　　Yu Biao said viciously, and then added: "Please, my friend Jiu Si, if you meet the murderer one day, tell him to suck his neck dry and wait for death!"

　　"Ouch, I was scared to death."

　　Chen Jie patted his chest, and at this time his younger brother brought a portion of pork that had been prepared in advance.

　　Yu Biao said with a smile: "Come to Jiusi and have some pork. I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it in the future."

　　Chen Jie laughed and said, "I don't eat pork!"

　　…

　　On the Mianshui River, Chen Xiaohu rowed a small boat and came to the reed marsh.

　　No one around cared about him. The big captain defected, and all power returned to Wu Zhong's hands again. Moreover, the other captains all had things to do, so the specific matters of the fish pen were now in the hands of the fifth captain Zhou Chu.

　　Zhou Chu and Chen Jie had a very good relationship.

　　By the way, my relationship with Xiaohu also became very good.

　　So Xiaohu's status in the fish pen has now become very high.

　　Not only could he now use the boat as he pleased, but he also had complete freedom of movement.

　　At this time, according to Chen Jie's instructions, Chen Xiaohu came to the place where the reeds were the densest in the reed marsh, which was covered with thick reeds all year round.

　　There is no sunlight and it is very cold.

　　Dogs don't come here on weekdays.

　　But today Xiaohu specifically chose this place.

　　Xiaohu parked the boat and then took out a scoop net from the boat.

　　Then he slowly probed along the hull to the bottom of the river. After the first net, there was nothing. Xiaohu frowned slightly.

　　The second net caught some mud, but there was a reward. There were actually half-eaten fish bones in the mud.

　　A careful examination of these fish revealed that there was a small hole as thick as a thumb on the remains of each of them, as if it had been pierced by something.

　　"Ox-horned pomfret!"

　　The corners of Xiaohu's mouth curled up. Brother Jiusi was right. The ox-horn pomfret was indeed here. Hahahaha...

　　Hu Zi immediately became motivated and started scooping up fish in the area with a scoop net.

　　One net, one net, and another net.

　　I don't know how many times he swung the net, but just when Xiaohu's forehead was sweating, his net suddenly sank.

　　Immediately afterwards, he felt a terrifying force pulling him into the water and almost causing him to fall into the water.

　　But he was still very strong, just when he was about to be dragged into the water.

　　He immediately tied up a Taipingma to stabilize the chassis, then held the scoop net tightly, and without rushing to raise the net, he just fought with the ox-horned pomfret.

　　The Taiping Horse is a matching horse stance for the Jingtao Palm, which can stabilize the chassis and increase strength, and is suitable for this kind of long-term strength competition.

　　Fortunately, Chen Jie taught him martial arts, otherwise he would not be able to catch the ox-horned pomfret today.

　　This ox-horned pomfret was indeed powerful. Xiaohu was riding a Taiping horse and had no way of controlling the boat, so he was actually pulled forward by the ox-horned pomfret.

　　And the speed is not slow, it seems like a dog pulling a sled.

　　Seeing this, Xiaohu raised his foot, picked up the bamboo pole on the boat, and then plunged it into the mud to prevent the boat from moving.

　　Xiaohu held the scoop net in one hand and the bamboo pole in the other, and the boat began to spin in place, spinning madly, as the bighead carp pulled it.

　　Xiaohu gritted his teeth and refused to let go. It was just like fishing. Only when the fish released all its excess strength could he lift it up.

　　It's a long process.

　　Fortunately, Xiaohu knew that we were here to catch bighead carp today, so the scoop net he brought was specially reinforced. The pole of the scoop net was made of reinforced wood, and the surface of the scoop net was made of three layers of mesh.

　　If an ordinary fishing net was pulled like this, it would have broken long ago.

　　Click, click, click…

　　As the bull horn pomfret exerted more force, the bamboo pole nailed in the mud suddenly broke, and with a snap, the boat was dragged away directly.

　　Xiaohu was nearly shaken off the boat. He then grabbed the fishing net and took a horse stance, rooting himself to the ground, competing in endurance with the silver pomfret.

　　Come on, Xiaohu is ready for a protracted war.

　　In this way, the ox-horned pomfret began to wander in the water, dragging the small boat. Fortunately, the people from the Cao Gang had withdrawn today, otherwise today's affairs would have been troublesome and would have been exposed.

　　I have to say that Chen Jie grasped the timing very well.

　　In this way, after more than an hour of playing, the ox-horned pomfret was finally tired.

　　No wonder it is called ox-horn pomfret, its power is unparalleled.

　　Seeing that the ox-horn pomfret had lost strength, the tiger started to exert force with both arms.

　　"rise!"

　　With the sound of the word "start", the scoop net was lifted up, and the big fish that was shining with golden light appeared in the scoop net.

　　"Finally I caught you!"

　　A smile appeared on Xiaohu's face. Although this ox-horned pomfret looks as strong as a bull in the water, it loses its strength instantly after coming out of the water, as if it had lost its strength.

　　It was successfully scooped into the net. Xiaohu wiped his forehead and looked at the big fish in the net. He was excited. Good, great, I finally caught it. This time, Brother Jiu Si will be able to advance to the Flesh Training Realm.

　　Thinking about this, Xiaohu carefully looked at the bull horn pomfret in front of him. He saw that the bull horn pomfret was not big, only about two pounds, but it looked very fierce. Its head was different from that of ordinary golden pomfret. It was not flat, but square, and even looked like a bull's head.

　　On both sides of the fish head there are two horns as thick as thumbs, which looks very domineering.

　　Looking at the fishing net that had just been used, the innermost layer was even pierced by the ox horns. This was a special net, and if you were not careful, the ox-horn pomfret would be able to push open the fishing net and escape.

　　Now that I have caught the fish, I have completed Brother Jiu Si's request.

　　It was not in vain that Brother Jiu Si took the risk to go to a pig-killing ceremony to show his authority.

　　Yu Biao has established his power, but the ox-horned pomfret belongs to Brother Jiu Si.

　　Thinking of this, he put the bull horn pomfret into the newly woven fish basket he had prepared. This fish basket was woven by him on the spot and used a double-layer structure. It was very simple and even a bull horn pomfret would not be able to pierce it. However, its disadvantage was also obvious. The double-layer structure made the space inside smaller and only one bull horn pomfret could fit in it.

　　But that's enough.

　　After all, catching a bighead carp on this trip is much better than catching a hundred other fish.

　　After figuring this out, Xiaohu looked around and saw that no one was noticing him, so he rowed away directly, achieving his goal.

　　…

　　Xiantao Town, Yu family banquet.

　　The banquet had already begun, and the people were all given pork and were very happy, but the atmosphere at the main table was very strange.

　　No one picked up their chopsticks, just stared at each other without saying a word.

　　After Chen explained that he didn't eat pork, Wu Zhong also said that he didn't eat pork. Wu Hong didn't eat it either. Li Sanding followed the manager's footsteps and didn't eat it either. So Yu Biao's whole pig banquet came to a standstill.

　　Since Wu Zhong didn't want to eat, the landlords present couldn't start eating either.

　　But Yu Biao ate with great relish, as if the pork was the most delicious delicacy in the world.

　　When the landlords saw this, some of them picked up their chopsticks and started eating pork, but some, who were closer to the fishing gang, did not move their chopsticks, such as the Li family from Xiantao Village.

　　Xiantao Village is Wuzhong's base, so the Li family and Wuzhong are of the same mind.

　　For a moment, both sides were caught in a weird situation of taking sides.

　　Chen Jie didn't eat, but kept looking around until he saw a child waving a red banner on the street corner.

　　The corners of his mouth curled up.

　　This was the secret code he and Xiaohu agreed upon. If they succeeded in taking the Mianshui River, they would be ready to withdraw.

　　After all, at this kind of banquet, there are no good people, no good banquet, and there is nothing to eat.

　　So Chen Jie winked at Wu Zhong, and Wu Zhong knew it was time to go, so he stood up and said, "Brother Yu!"

　　Yu Biao looked at Wu Zhong.

　　"We've finished eating, so we'll leave first."

　　"Ah, Brother Wu, why are you so anxious? Are you feeling unwell?"

　　Brother Wu said, "No, I am in good health, but I have some trivial matters at home. Let's meet again at Baozheng Dabi."

　　After hearing this, Yu Biao laughed and said, "Okay, then we'll see you at the Baozheng competition."

　　After saying that, he turned to look at Chen Jie and said, "Jiu Si, shall we meet at the Baozheng competition?"

　　Chen Jie smiled back and said, "Okay!"

　　After that, both sides fell silent, but they understood each other's meaning through their eyes.

　　Wu Zhong and his party left.

　　Yu Biao looked at the people who were leaving with a gloomy look, filled with murderous intent.
