Chapter 752: The soldiers are divided into two ways
Zhang Chi smiled: "I have a deal to escort some goods to Crystal City, but I lack a reliable guide by my side, I wonder if Mr. Huang is interested?"
Huang Qitai heard that there was an errand looking for him, although he wanted to take a gesture in his heart, but his excited eyes could not be hidden, he had no financial resources for too long, Storm City was no longer what it used to be, the status of the mountain barbarian clan was low, and they could only find some lowly jobs, and it was even more difficult for a disabled person like him who had lost his spiritual ability to find a decent job, Huang Qitai didn't even have the courage to bargain, for fear that he would offend this nobleman, and the opportunity might be fleeting.
Huang Qitai said: "This road is very dangerous. ”
Zhang Chi said: "I'll give you a reward of one hundred gold coins, and I'll be responsible for all the food and drink expenses generated on the way." ”
Huang Qitai really couldn't think of a reason to refuse such conditions, for fear of missing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and said respectfully: "When will you leave?", he has worked in the Huang family business group for many years, and he is well versed in the rules, not asking about the goods, only asking the time, and letting himself be a guide to give such a generous reward, which is enough to prove that these goods are very important.
Zhang Chi said: "Four days later, at five o'clock in the morning, you go to the door of the Mingfu Inn and wait for me." ”
Huang Qitai said: "Mr. Zhang, don't worry, I will arrive on time." ”
Zhang Chi asked Feixue to give him ten gold coins as an advance, Huang Qitai prevaricated it with hypocrisy, and finally accepted it.
After Huang Qitai left, Zhang Chi beckoned Feixue to sit down, Feixue abided by the etiquette of the master and servant from beginning to end, standing aside and waiting, Zhang Chi took pity on her that she hadn't eaten yet, and was ready to let the store serve the food.
Feixue said: "Childe doesn't have to care about me, there is a difference between master and servant, how can I share the table with the master, and I have also eaten, and I am not hungry at all." ”
Seeing that she insisted, Zhang Chi could only let her, so he flashed his exploration card, and it was really free. Zhang Chi found out that the role of the Tanyou card is not only limited to Flower Street, as long as he holds this brand, the property held by Huang Feihong can be almost unimpeded.
Back at the Mingfu Inn, Zhang Chi specially knocked on Lao Cao's door, but no one answered, it is estimated that Cao Chengguang is crooked, he will not come back tonight, just think about Lao Cao, and then think about the generally tall Shanman women, there is an inexplicable feeling of wanting to laugh.
Zhang Chi opened a room next to Feixue next to him, although he knew that as long as he opened his mouth, Feixue would definitely come over to warm the bed willingly, but he always felt that this kind of thing was a bit immoral, and people didn't really like him with him, but out of a humble slave mentality.
In the middle of the night, there was a knock on the door of Zhang Chi's room, and when he opened the door, he saw that Cao Chengguang ran in breathlessly.
Zhang Chi couldn't help but laugh when he saw him: "You are not pushing the wave building to be merry, what are you doing when you come back?"
Cao Chengguang made a silent gesture to him, put his ear to the door and listened, and said in a low voice: "Damn, my brand was stolen." ”
Zhang Chi was speechless, Cao Chengguang, an old and cunning character, would actually fall for someone else's way.
Zhang Chi said: "Who can do it?"
Cao Chengguang smiled bitterly: "How do I know, it was quite happy, Made, when I was about to take off my clothes, the sign was gone." ”
Zhang Chi said: "So you didn't do anything?"
Cao Chengguang realized that he had gone, sighed and said: "I went to the door and turned around, but unfortunately that girl had to check my brand, I touched it, and the sign was gone." ”
Zhang Chi knew that he was slapping his swollen face and becoming fat: "And then?"
Cao Chengguang hung his head and said: "The sluts in Tuibo Lou are not good at stubble, they will turn their faces when they say that they will turn their faces, thanks to me running fast, otherwise they would have been geldings at this moment." ”
Zhang Chi said: "You don't have to worry about this, you are so well lurking, they may not be able to find it." ”
Cao Chengguang said: "What do you mean? What do you mean?"
Zhang Chi smiled and said, "You go back to your room to rest." “
Cao Chengguang said: "I have to hide first, and I came back to inform you." Before the words fell, there was a noisy sound of footsteps outside, Cao Chengguang waved his hand to Zhang Chi, and his body turned and went underground.
There was a quick knock on the door outside, Zhang Chi got up and went to open the door, and a big fat girl rushed in with a group of strong men.
Huang Feixue, who was next door, hurriedly rushed over when she heard the movement, and when she saw the scene in front of her, she couldn't help but be taken aback, and said loudly: "Boss Liu, what are you doing?" It turned out that this fat woman was Liu Xiniang, the owner of Tuibo Building, and one of the most powerful people in Huajie.
Zhang Daxian was unhurried, looked at the Boss Liu and said, "What are you doing?"
The big fat girl crossed her hands on her waist and said, "What about the dwarf?"
Zhang Chi said: "This Boss Liu, why are you asking a dwarf to knock on my door?"
Liu Xiniang raised a Tanyou card and said, "Did you give him this brand?"
Zhang Chi took a closer look, this brand also said that it was good to explore the secluded, but this brand was clearly a fake, no, Huang Feihong obviously gave himself two pieces, and he gave Cao Chengguang one, he saw that the brand was fine, how could it suddenly become a fake? It seems that Cao Chengguang's brand was accidentally dropped.
Huang Feixue was anxious, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Boss Liu, Gongzi Zhang is Madame's brother-in-law. ”
"So what? Take a fake brand and come to me to push Bolou to cheat on eating, drinking, and sleeping, even if the king of heaven and Lao Tzu comes, I Liu Xiniang will turn my face with him. There was arrogance in his words, and his eyes looked around when he spoke.
Zhang Chi laughed secretly in his heart, Cao Chengguang shouldn't sleep with this big fat girl, right? This contrast is too strong, if Liu Xiniang is compared to an aircraft carrier, Cao Chengguang is a carrier-based aircraft at best, and the taste of this cargo is too ...... Zhang Daxian couldn't imagine that kind of picture.
Zhang Chi said: "Boss Liu misunderstood, although I know him, I don't have a deep friendship, I just live in the same inn, and this brand is not given to him by me." ”
Liu Xiniang said: "But he said that you gave it to him." ”
Zhang Chi took out his own Tanyou card and shook it in front of Liu Xiniang's eyes and said, "My brand is still here, how can I give it to others casually." ”
Liu Xiniang saw the Tanyou card in Zhang Chi's hand, and reached out to take it to see, but Zhang Chi had already taken it back, and she pounced.
Huang Feixue said: "Boss Liu, if Mrs. knows about this matter, she will definitely be unhappy." ”
Liu Xiniang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give my wife a face, don't let me see that dwarf again in the future, otherwise I will break his body into thousands of pieces and scatter ashes to relieve the hatred in my heart." ”
Zhang Daxian couldn't help but smile bitterly, what a big hatred this is.
After Liu Xiniang led the group of people to leave, Huang Feixue closed the door and said with concern: "Have you ever surprised the son?"
Zhang Chi smiled: "It's just a misunderstanding." He looked at the ground, and Cao Chengguang estimated that he would not dare to show up for a while.
Huang Feixue said: "I'll make a cup of tea for my son." ”
Zhang Chi nodded, Huang Feixue went to make Zhang Chi a pot of tea, brought him a basin of hot water to soak his feet, and squatted down to help him remove his shoes and socks.
Zhang Chi was a little embarrassed to see Huang Feixue busy, and said softly: "Feixue, don't be busy, sit with me for a while." ”
Huang Feixue said: "It's all because Feixue is not good, she slept too deeply, and she didn't stop those people in time." ”
Zhang Chi smiled and said, "What does Lao Cao have to do with you?" He was a little strange, the entire flower street was Huang Feihong's property, why was this Liu Xiniang in Tuibo Lou so arrogant, and even Huang Feihong didn't seem to give face.
Huang Feixue explained to him that in fact, the Moon Worship Merchant Group was also in crisis, although Flower Street was Huang Feihong's property on the surface, in fact, the real owner was Dubeifeng. This Liu Xiniang is the boss of Tuibo Building, short-tempered and domineering, and she was also raised by Huang Feihong in the past, and in the past two years, with the reuse of Dubeifeng, even Huang Feihong didn't even take it seriously.
Huang Feihong's Tanyou card to Zhang Chi was actually authorized by Dubeifeng, and the merchant didn't dare not give face when he saw the Tanyou card, it should be said that it was to Dubeifeng face, not to Huang Feihong, the nominal boss.
Although Zhang Chi knew that Huang Feihong's current situation was not good, he didn't expect her to be so difficult, but today he caused her trouble, remembering Liu Xiniang's arrogance just now, he suspected that Cao Chengguang's brand was not lost, maybe it was dropped by the gang of people in Tuibo Building, so as to embarrass Huang Feihong, otherwise he would not have come to the door to make trouble.
Huang Feixue waited for Zhang Chi to sleep, and then left quietly, when she returned to her room, her mouth and nose were suddenly covered, Huang Feixue struggled desperately, but unfortunately she couldn't make any sound.
Not long after Zhang Chi fell asleep, Cao Chengguang came out of the ground of his room, patted him and said, "It's not good, Huang Feixue was robbed." ”
Zhang Chi was shocked when he heard this: "What did you say?"
Cao Chengguang told him what he had just seen, he quietly followed behind Liu Xiniang's gang just now, and when he saw someone coming back after Liu Xiniang left, Cao Chengguang thought it was aimed at him, but he didn't expect them to take Huang Feixue away.
Zhang Chi said angrily: "You obviously saw it, why didn't you stop it?"
Cao Chengguang said: "It was the big fat girl who took someone to kidnap her, I followed all the way, and saw that they got her into Tuibo Building, don't you hurry up and come over to inform you, this is called Chagen to ask the bottom, if you don't know who did it, something like this will happen in the future." ”
Zhang Chi got up and said, "Let's go, I want to see what they want to do?"
Cao Chengguang said: "That girl doesn't give Huang Feihong face, it's useless for you to go to her." ”
Zhang Chi said: "Our soldiers are divided into two ways, you go to save people, I want to see what kind of immortal this Liu Xiniang is." ”
Zhang Daxian didn't bother Huang Feihong, firstly, it was late, and secondly, even if he was looking for Huang Feihong, it was useless, Huang Feihong's influence in the Moon Worship Merchant Group and even Storm City was not so great, and the thirteen backbones of the merchant group who were killed by Dubeifeng before were her henchmen, so Liu Xiniang didn't buy it at all.
The wicked still need the wicked to grind, and Zhang Chi is not afraid of this kind of person.
He and Cao Chengguang soldiers split up and went straight to Huajie Tuibo Building, whether the Shanman clan was in charge in the past or the Black Moon clan is in power now, it is a felony to arbitrarily manipulate other people's private property, Huang Feihong gave Huang Feixue to himself, then Huang Feixue is his own private property, Liu Xiniang is a robbery in the open, according to the rules of Storm City, you can be killed on the spot.
Zhang Chi came to the flower street, dozens of brothels in the whole flower street are lit up with red lights, the night breeze blows, the red lights are swaying in the night, it looks like waves from afar, the scene is very spectacular, the largest of them is the Tuibo Building.
Zhang Daxian stopped in front of the Tuibo Building, looked up at the gold-lettered signboard of the Tuibo Building, and paused for about ten seconds before striding inside.
The two guards in front of the door stepped forward to stop him: "This son, have you ever seen the signboard outside the door?"
Zhang Chi smiled indifferently, shook the Tanyou card in his hand to the two, the two looked at each other and retreated, and at the same time clenched his right hand into a fist and gently patted it three times in his heart, saluting Zhang Chi, proving that this brand still has some effect.
Zhang Chi didn't bother to pay attention to them, and walked into the Tuibo Building, to Zhang Chi's surprise, there were no guests in the Tuibo Building, which had a transcendent status on Flower Street.
Liu Xiniang walked down from the upper floor, she was tall and fat, her steps were heavy, stepping on the wooden staircase, and every step made a creaking sound that people couldn't help but worry that the staircase might collapse by her at any time.
Liu Xiniang looked at Zhang Chi condescendingly as she walked, and a pair of slender eyes on her big round face showed a mean light.
Zhang Chi said: "Boss Liu, I can't imagine it, let's meet so soon." ”
Liu Xiniang said: "I don't know my son well, if you came to Tuibo Lou to find a girl, I can help you introduce it." ”
"Thank you Boss Liu, the reason why I came here is indeed to find a girl. ”
Liu Xiniang's two long eyebrows, which were somewhat exaggerated, raised upwards and said, "Who is it?"
"Huang Feixue!"
Liu Xiniang smiled and said, "Huang Feixue, I know her, but she is not here." ”
Zhang Chi saw that she was talking nonsense with her eyes open, and she was not angry, Cao Chengguang should have escaped into Tuibo Building, and it was not difficult to find Huang Feixue to rescue her with Lao Cao's skills, Zhang Chi said: "The state has national laws, and the family has family rules, according to the laws of Stormwind City, those who forcibly occupy other people's property will be imprisoned at least and sentenced to beheading." ”
Liu Xiniang pretended to be confused and said: "Yo, then you should hurry up and find out who took Huang Feixue away, no, when did Huang Feixue become your private property?"
Zhang Chi said: "My sister-in-law Huang Feihong has already given her to me. ”
Liu Xiniang said with a smile: "Congratulations, Huang Feixue is a rare beauty in Stormwind City, and even Lord Admiral likes it very much." She deliberately lifted the Admiral Dubei Peak to deter Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi secretly scolded this girl for not knowing what to do, and said indifferently: "I remember that this flower street is my sister-in-law's property." ”
Liu Xiniang said: "Things in this world can't just look at the surface, Zhang Gongzi came to Stormwind City not long ago, it is true that Huajie is Boss Huang's property, but the property is hers, but we are operating in our own hands, just say that the Exploration Card is not something that can be rampant when it is taken out, and in the end there must be a source, don't you say?"
Zhang Chi nodded and said, "Yes, this brand is really useless." ”
Liu Xiniang said: "But if you don't have this brand, I'm afraid that you are not qualified to enter Tuibo Building as a son, otherwise you will be thrown out if you walk in." ”
Zhang Chi laughed: "So, this Tuibo Building is still a place I can't climb?"
Liu Xiniang said: "I didn't say it. ”
Zhang Chi said: "If you don't want to find someone, I won't come if you invite me, to tell you a word from the heart, seeing Boss Liu's appearance, I don't have any mood." ”
Liu Xiniang's face was gloomy, this guy was vicious enough to speak, it was clear that she was cold to the old lady, she said coldly: "Zhang Gongzi, please go back, there is no one you are looking for in Tuibo Building!"
At this time, I suddenly heard a voice say, "Childe!"
But it was Huang Feixue who escaped from the cellar, of course she didn't have this ability, but when Zhang Chi was talking to Liu Xiniang, Cao Chengguang had already secretly escaped into Tuibo Building, knocked down two strong men in charge of guarding, and released Huang Feixue, who was locked in the cellar.
Cao Chengguang didn't dare to show his face openly, he hid immediately after saving people, and Zhang Chi would solve the rest of the matter by himself.
Huang Feixue was stopped by a person before she came to Zhang Chi, Zhang Chi looked at Liu Xiniang coldly and said, "What is Boss Liu's explanation?"
Liu Xiniang was arrested, and she still didn't have any guilt: "There's nothing to explain, and I don't know how people are pushing the Bolou." She widened her eyes and said sharply, "Which person hid someone from me?"
Zhang Chi nodded and said, "Okay, I also believe that this matter has nothing to do with Boss Liu, Feixue, come here, I'll take you back." ”
Huang Feixue walked over to Zhang Chi, and the nurse in Tuibo Lou still wanted to stop her, Liu Xiniang knocked on her eyes and signaled him to let the person go, wondering in her heart, obviously this matter was extremely hidden, why was it still discovered?
Huang Feixue came to Zhang Chi's side tremblingly, Zhang Chi held her hand, feeling that Huang Feixue's slender hand was cold, obviously frightened.
Zhang Chi took Huang Feixue's hand and walked out, Liu Xiniang looked at their backs, her eyes showed a fierce light, but she finally didn't give the order to stop them.
Walking out of Tuibo Building, the wind was blowing outside, and rows of red lights on both sides of the flower street were swaying with the wind, like two red rivers rushing and surging.
Huang Feixue said in a trembling voice: "It's going to be a wind and sand." ”
Zhang Chi said meaningfully: "What should come is always coming." ”
A man in black wearing a hat stood in the center of Flower Street with a knife, and the slender and narrow knife in his hand was pointed at the ground at a 45-degree angle, looking at his posture like a killer.
Liu Xiniang wants to do business after all, of course she will not stop Zhang Chi from leaving in Tuibo Building, but leaving Tuibo Lou does not mean that she can leave Huajie, there are many guests in Tuibo Building, all kinds of professions, among which there are killers.
Tuibo Lou can't kill people casually, but the guests of Tuibo Lou can, after killing people, they will leave, and Tuibo Lou has nothing to do with Tuibo Lou.
The killer's head was pressed very low, dragging the knife and striding towards Zhang Chi, full of posture and murderous aura, but he only ran halfway, and suddenly tripped under his feet, to be exact, someone stretched out his hand and pulled it on his ankle, the killer suddenly lost his balance, and fell to the ground in extreme embarrassment, and even more unfortunately, the knife he used to cut people in his hand cut his neck before he had time to move away.
The killer is unknown, but his story has been spread on Flower Street since then, because many people in Flower Street have seen the scene of him dying before he can get out of school.
After this incident, Zhang Chi felt more and more that Huang Feihong's situation in Storm City was not good, so he specially persuaded Huang Feihong to leave Storm City, and according to the current situation, it would not be long before she would be completely an outcast.
Huang Feihong politely declined Zhang Chi's proposal, although she was in a difficult situation, she thought that Dubeifeng would not be able to do without her in a short period of time, and her safety would not be threatened. She made a special trip to Tuibo Building to meet with Liu Xiniang to solve Cao Chengguang's matter, and Liu Xiniang promised her that she would not pursue the matter again.
After three days of preparation, it was finally time to set off.
Huang Qitai came to the Mingfu Inn on time, and only then did he know that he was a guide for the Moon Worship Merchant Group, in all fairness, he was still resistant to the Moon Worship Merchant Group, because after the Black Moon Clan controlled Storm City, most of the industries that the Huang Family Merchant Group had not had time to transfer were transferred to the Moon Worship Merchant Group, and to put it bluntly, it was a forcible seizure.
can be contradicted to contradict, reality is reality, Huang Qitai is just a waste now, if it weren't for Zhang Chi, he would have been poor and desperate, it is really rare to be able to leave Storm City and mix food, how can he take care of any backbone.
This time, there were seventy-three members of the merchant group, twelve carriages, except for the coachman, the rest were mainly responsible for protection along the way, Huang Feihong found a guide for Zhang Chi named Huo Jiu. Huang Qitai hired Zhang Chi privately, and he didn't even tell Huang Feihong about it.
After successfully leaving Stormwind City with the customs clearance paperwork, Cao Chengguang rode on his horse, turned to look back at Stormwind City and said, "What bullshit place, it's not interesting at all." ”
Zhang Chi couldn't help but smile and said, "Lao Cao, did you have fun in Tuibo Building that night?"
Cao Chengguang was most afraid that he would mention this matter, and his old face was hot: "It's boring." His eyes looked at Huang Qitai on the side and said, "Who is this lame?"
Huang Qitai listened to his disrespectful words, so he could only swallow his anger.
Zhang Chi said: "Lao Cao, this is Mr. Huang, my good friend, you are polite to others." ”
Huang Qitai saluted Cao Chengguang and said, "I've seen Mr. Cao." ”
Cao Chengguang looked at Huang Qitai and said, "Is it reliable, can he do it?"
Zhang Chi laughed and ordered the convoy to march towards Crystal City.
This time, there is also a person in charge of the caravan, who was sent by Huang Feihong to Crystal City to do a transaction, named Huang Zhulang, who is also kind, and asks Zhang Chi for instructions in everything first, which is also Huang Feihong's explanation before departure.
Huo Jiu was responsible for guiding the way in front, after Zhang Chi and a few people broke off, he encountered a sandstorm soon after leaving Storm City, the yellow sand and dust rushed towards him, covering the sky and the sun, and he couldn't see the road ahead at all, everyone covered their mouths and noses, put on goggles, Zhang Chi originally agreed to meet Chu Jianghe and them outside the city, and it was difficult for him to find a place to meet in this bad weather.
The guide Huo Jiu was also confused by the dust, and he couldn't find the red beech tree that Zhang Chi said.
After Huang Qitai asked, he offered to lead the way, Zhang Chi came to the front of the team from the end of the team with him, Huang Qitai really did not disappoint Zhang Chi, and soon brought the caravan to the dry red beech tree, Zhang Chi looked at the red beech tree in the wind and sand, and couldn't help but sigh, Huang Qitai does have some skills, such a big dust weather, he was able to find this place with his memory, proving that he did not choose the wrong person.
Zhang Chi saw that there was no figure next to the red beech tree, looked at the time, it had reached the appointed time with Chu Jianghe, in Zhang Chi's memory, Chu Jianghe was still a punctual person, and for some reason he hadn't appeared yet.
Huang Qitai suddenly pointed to the distance and said, "There are wolves!"
Zhang Chi looked in the direction he pointed, but saw that in the distance in the dust, there were more than ten wolf figures looming, and he had already sensed in his heart, Lightning and some of its subordinates had come over to meet, Zhang Chi told Lightning to follow the caravan for the time being, and meet again after staying away from Stormwind City, so as not to cause fright.
After waiting under the red beech tree for half an hour, he still didn't see Chu Jianghe and those Chongmu clans coming, Zhang Chi realized that they might not come, it seems that Chu Jianghe has his own calculations, everyone has their own ambitions, and they can't be forced.
Cao Chengguang saw this very thoroughly, the last time he rescued Chu Jianghe, he found that there was something wrong with Chu Jianghe, and now it proves that Chu Jianghe didn't want to be with them, Cao Chengguang said: "That kid has been here like you, and he also has his own purpose." ”
Zhang Chi nodded, everyone has their own ambitions, and it is not easy to be reluctant, he is not worried about Chu Jianghe, Chu Jianghe is now with the Chongmu clan, he saved Xiao Hongying again, the people of the Chongmu clan should be good to him, in comparison, Zhang Chi is more worried about Bai Xiaomi, although Bai Xiaomi is smart, but she has never been to the Netherworld after all, and now there is no news, I don't know where she is, and I don't know if she can cope with this harsh environment alone.
Cao Chengguang's eyes were like torches, he saw his thoughts, and said in a low voice: "Are you worried about that girl?"
"Everyone came together and should take care of each other. ”
Cao Chengguang said: "I will discuss something with you." He motioned for Zhang Chi to bow down, and whispered in his ear: "You let the Wolf of the Wind give me a trip, I think Huajie burned down the Tuibo Building." "He was already extremely angry, and he was a person who would take revenge, and he had not resolved his anger in Tuibo Lou until now, and he wanted to go back to take revenge.
Zhang Chi said with a smile: "I can't be as knowledgeable as that kind of woman, and the real estate in Huajie is Huang Feihong's, and my sister-in-law didn't offend you, why did you burn her house?"
The two muttered under the red beech tree for a long time, and Huang Zhulang came over to ask if he could go.
Zhang Chi saw that more than forty minutes had passed, and Chu Jianghe had not yet come, so he probably didn't want to go with him, so he ordered the caravan to set off immediately.
The sandstorm continued, but the momentum was gradually weakening, after the caravan left the red beech tree, a group of people came out of the hole not far from the red beech tree, and the first person was Chu Jianghe, Chu Jianghe raised his eyes to look at the caravan that had turned into small black dots in the sky, and sighed softly.
Xiao Hongying's voice came from behind him: "Brother Chu, why don't you go over and meet Brother Zhang?"
Chu Jianghe said indifferently: "If you see each other, you have to part, since you have to part, why do you have to see each other after all?"
Little Red Sakura looked at Chu Jianghe with admiration, and only felt that this ordinary sentence contained infinite philosophy.
Finally, the old grandson who came out of the hole in the ground said in a low voice: "We should also go on the road, this sandstorm will not stop for a while and a half." ”
Chu Jianghe nodded and said, "Okay!"
