Chapter 5: The Covenant War
The sky was overcast, the dark clouds pressed against the sun, and it couldn't jump out, and the air was mixed with a sultry breath, which made people breathless.
Chen Shi was sweating profusely. Just after frying a pot of rice noodles, he wiped his sweat with a towel around his neck, ready to rest in this rare free stage.
However, what he didn't expect was that the barbecue brother he hadn't seen for several days suddenly appeared.
Chen Shi had almost forgotten about him, but his sudden appearance today caught him a little off guard.
Brother Barbecue didn't come alone, he was followed by four or five people, dressed in various ways, but there was a very obvious feature, that is, the non-mainstream style killed Matt. Each of them has an avant-garde hairstyle, and their hair is either dyed red or yellow, which looks very striking and dazzling.
They walked to Chen Shi's stall under the leadership of the barbecue brother, and four or five people surrounded Chen Shi, all with cigarettes in their mouths, looking like they were hanging out.
Chen Shi knew that the one who was finding fault was coming, but he still asked knowingly: "How many people want to eat fried noodles?"
The barbecue brother threw the cigarette butt in his hand on the ground, spit out a mouthful of saliva before saying, "Six bowls of fried noodles with eggs, and meat to add." ”
Chen Shi knew that he was here to find fault, but he still calmly fried rice noodles for them. Without saying a word, he turned the fire to the maximum, and the flames flashed into the pot, and the oil in the pot was ignited, but after he added the eggs, the flame was instantly extinguished, and the spices were added, and the sound of the iron pot and the spoon colliding with the bell when the spoon was turned over added a little excitement to the sultry day.
Six bowls of rice noodles, he fried them directly in one pot, and after quickly filling them, he said, "A total of eighteen yuan." ”
Brother Barbecue is here to find fault, of course he will not want to eat rice noodles for no reason, so he deliberately shouted loudly: "So expensive? What kind of delicacies do you sell? A bowl costs three yuan?"
Chen Shi explained blandly: "Two yuan for egg scrambled noodles, three yuan for meat, six bowls for a total of eighteen yuan, is there anything wrong?"
The barbecue brother sneered, and then said to an explosive-headed brother next to him, "You taste it and see how it tastes?"
Without saying a word, the explosive head brother directly picked up the rice noodles, held a piece of rice noodles with two fingers, and put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly. In less than ten seconds, he suddenly became angry, raised his hand, smashed the rice noodles directly on the ground, and scolded, "Damn, what is this? It's so unpalatable?"
Chen Shi still didn't move at all, he had already been mentally prepared, he looked at the barbecue brother in front of him with a slight smile and said: "You just do this little trick? The little hooligan only plays this kind of trick, I think you still don't want to be ugly, I still have to do business, don't affect me, if you have the ability, let's make an appointment, 1510 to make a clear understanding, how about it?"
Brother Barbecue makes such a fuss, it will indeed affect his business, he can solve it privately, he can fight or kill, and he can even endure a temporary insult when necessary, but in any case, he can't affect the business, as long as the business is still there, he can do whatever it takes.
"Okay!" Brother Barbecue smiled: "I'm afraid you can't afford to play, I'll accompany you whenever you want to play." ”
There are many barbecue brothers, and he has inquired clearly in the past few days, Chen Shi has no backers, no friends, just a small fish and shrimp who single-handedly create rivers and lakes, he has a few catties and a few taels, he is clear and clear, therefore, no matter what the circumstances, he will not be afraid of Chen Shi, let alone solve this outdated Jianghu rules in private.
Chen Shi smiled slightly, and said with an extremely calm face: "I'm busy making money during the day, I don't have time, what about after nine o'clock in the evening?"
During the day, he is really busy, running at both the station and the school, if he finds some time, it will be a big loss, and he can't delay his time to make money.
Brother Barbecue said: "Okay, since you set the time, I will decide the place, there is a tomb mountain on the outskirts of the city, and it is full of graves, do you dare to go?"
In the city, he was afraid of making a big incident, so he found a place where people were killed, so that even if he killed someone, he could get out safely, so he found a cemetery, where there would be no people except during the Qingming Festival, quietly, and no one would know about doing some business, let alone witnesses.
Chen Shi didn't care where he chose, what he cared about was that the people in front of him would disappear immediately, because there were already students lining up behind him, and if they didn't leave, it would definitely affect the business, so he agreed: "Okay, since that's the case, let's see you at the cemetery at half past nine tonight, and when the time comes, how about you as many people as you come, and I will take them all single-handedly." ”
Brother Barbecue was overjoyed, and was about to leave after seeing Chen Shi's promise, but Chen Shi stopped him and said, "Please take away your rice noodles, and give me eighteen yuan now." ”
Brother Barbecue was slightly angry, but when he thought that he could clean him up tonight, he took out his wallet and paid twenty yuan, Chen Shi asked him for two yuan, but he pretended to be generous and said: "The two yuan will be left for you to buy a coffin!"
Chen Shi was not angry, and said with a smile: "If my son is as unfilial as you and only gives me a coffin book of two yuan, then I will definitely kill him." ”
Brother Barbecue suffered a loss, and the steps that had already been taken stopped again, but there was a burst of laughter behind him, and it turned out that the students in line couldn't help but laugh in unison after hearing it.
The barbecue brother rushed to find Chen Shi's trouble, but he didn't want to provoke the public's anger, not to mention that these people were his customers, if he was in a hurry, no one would eat his barbecue in the future, so he turned around and left hatefully.
Chen Shi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, although he pushed the trouble into the night, but he could temporarily solve the problem and not delay the business, he was already very satisfied, and he didn't think about tonight's appointment for the time being.
After the barbecue brother left, the business returned to booming, and the people in line couldn't see the end of the line, all his thoughts were on fried rice noodles, and he didn't have the energy to think about the things at night, so he was busy with the things in front of him first.
At nine o'clock in the evening, all Chen Shi's rice noodles were sold out.
After packing his things, he rode his tricycle to a hardware store, bought two steel pipes, and went straight to the cemetery on the outskirts of the city.
The cemetery was on a hill, and it was very difficult to ride a tricycle, so he had to lock it under the hill and carry two steel pipes up the winding mountain road.
Although the road up the hill is paved with cement, because there are no street lights, you can only barely see it with the help of the lights in the city, because the road is not too far, and it is a cement road, so you will not get lost even if there are no lights.
In about twenty minutes, he came to the top of the mountain, where the tombstones stood densely on the ground, and in it lay lonely people who had long since died, and occasionally a few pieces of burnt paper were blown by the wind and flew wildly, like rats scurrying around without finding their way.
The sweltering weather during the day is very cool at night, and there is not only wind, but also a very rapid wind in an uncertain direction, which is like a precursor to rain.
Chen Shi stood in front of a cemetery, faintly feeling that some lonely ghosts were wandering around, and even occasionally a few strange cries came, he was not afraid of ghosts, and he had never seen ghosts, but in such a cold, sometimes windy cemetery, there was some awe of ghosts.
In the dark, he hid the steel pipe behind his arm, and then shouted at the top of his voice: "I'm already here, come out! Don't pretend to be a ghost, since Lao Tzu dares to come, of course I am not afraid of your many people, let alone your tricks." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, several black figures appeared in the cemetery, and he didn't need to think about it to know that it must be a barbecue brother.
There were six of them, and because it was dark and the light was unknown, they couldn't see the color of their hair, so they could only see black.
"You have a kind of dare to come alone. "Listen to the sound and know it's a barbecue brother.
Chen Shi didn't pay attention to him, but asked: "I'm here, how do I want to solve it, although I draw a way." ”
Brother Barbecue admired Chen Shi a little at this time, and he said: "Brother, I see that you are a character, I will not bully you today, I will give you two ways, one is that you leave school and will not come again in the future, and the other is that you pay a protection fee, and I promise not to interfere with your business in the future, how about it?"
Chen Shi sneered and said, "It's not good, I'll choose the third way." ”
"Huh. The barbecue brother sneered: "The third way, don't blame me for not reminding you, our brothers are all outlaws, and there is no one here, even if they kill you, the police may not be able to find out, and this is a cemetery, it's a big deal that a few of us will work hard and bury you, and your family won't be able to find it when they want to." ”
Chen Shi said: "I'm afraid of death, so I won't come." "How can a person not be afraid of death? It's just that he is sure, in his previous life, he used to be a security guard for a year, and he was the kind of security guard who followed the boss to do demolition, and there were more ways to beat people, although he may not be able to be a big six, but now it is night, plus he has two steel pipes in his hand, and his experience in fighting, he doesn't believe that he can't deal with a few small hooligans/hooligans.
Seeing that Chen Shi decided to fight to the end, the barbecue brother gave up his plan to make peace, and said fiercely: "Okay, since you are not afraid of death, then don't blame us for being too powerful." ”
Six people surrounded Chen Shi from all directions, and in the darkness they couldn't see their faces clearly, nor could they see their clothes, they could only see dark shadows, if it wasn't for the previous appointment, they would definitely be startled when they saw people in such a situation.
The darkness covered everyone, including Chen Shi, and the most important thing was the two steel pipes in his hands.
Fighting in such a dark and unclear place is actually quite a loss for the party with a lot of people, and when the time comes, it is almost impossible to tell who is who, but for Chen Shi, the advantage is revealed, first of all, he has no helpers, everyone here is his enemy, so there is no need to distinguish between the enemy and me, and secondly, he can hide weapons and can get the effect of surprise.
