Chapter 281: Virtue is not revealed
Chapter 281
I got up and poured a glass of wine for the old man, and said politely, "The old master came to look for a few of us late at night, isn't there anything important to inform?"
The old man looked at the wine in the cup, did not reach out to take it, his eyes showed a little disgust, most of the wine in this food stall, people don't look down on it, if you want me to say, they are these old antiques are just blind, but this is also more sure of my judgment of his family background, but I don't know what the purpose of this old man's late night visit is.
The old man put his hands on his knees and raised his chin, "I came, and I was also entrusted by someone to pass a message to you, someone, I heard that you arrived in Wuhan, I want to see you, it just so happens, I owe him a favor, so I came to run this leg, give, this is the address, you get up early tomorrow, after you arrive at the place, if someone stops you, just say that Xiong Qingzhong of the Chutian League arranged for you to come." ”
The old man said and shook out a piece of paper from his cuff and handed it to me, I took it and glanced at it slightly, it was written with a very detailed address, but I am not familiar with Wuhan, and I don't know where the paper is written for a while, what is the particularity, I put the piece of paper away, looked at the old man and replied with deep meaning, "Master, your name is Xiong Qingzhong, I heard that there is only one family surnamed Xiong in the Chutian League, which was left by Xiong Anhuang, the leader of the alliance who founded the Chutian League, I don't know if the master is a member of this clan?"
Xiong Qingzhong saw that I had revealed his origin, and his face couldn't help but show a look of pride, his chest straightened again, and he said proudly, "You are not very old, but you know a lot, yes, the old man is a member of the Xiong family in the Chutian League." ”
"Oh, that's really disrespectful, the Lord of the Bear League created the Chutian League alone, the process of twists and turns has been passed down for a long time, Xiao Ke has always longed for it, only hated himself for being born many years later, and he didn't have the opportunity to see the hero, fortunately, God treats me well, I actually have the opportunity to meet the clansmen of the Lord of the Bear League here, it's really my luck, Master Xiong, in order to express my respect for the Lord of the Bear League, I respect you for this cup!"
I raised my wine glass and drank it all, because my cup was dedicated to the master of the Xiong League, and Xiong Qingzhong accepted it on his behalf, so I put down the wine glass and talked to Xiong Qingzhong about Xiong Anhuang's life, what I just said was not all lies, Xiong Anhuang's process of creating the Chutian League is indeed quite bizarre, and the Chutian League is also the only force that has maintained control of the entire territory of the province before the Beiquan Conference, and the strength can be seen.
In addition, the surname Xiong is from the surname Mi, which is the surname of Chu, and the people surnamed Xiong are all over the Chu, both in terms of economy and politics, they have been a force that cannot be ignored in Chu, Xiong Anhuang successfully established the Chutian League in modern years, which is based on the help provided by the Xiong family, but the strange thing is that according to what we saw yesterday, the Chutian League now has no leader, and has been divided into five veins, and among the heads of the five veins, there is no one surnamed Xiong, which is more intriguing, is it possible that the family surnamed Xiong has begun to be marginalized by the Chutian League, thus leaving the center of power?
Xiong Qingzhong has been aroused by me at this time, his face is full of admiration and pride for his predecessors, I interjected in due course, "In this way, it is not an exaggeration for Chu Tianmeng to say that the Xiong family is maintained by his own strength, but Xiao Ke has one thing to understand, when I met the five vein masters yesterday, I knew that the vein masters belong to Chu, Zhuang, Xiang, Zuo and Shangguan five surnames, which are all Chu Zhong surnames, why is there only a lack of Xiong surname clansmen, Xiao Ke is very confused, can Master Xiong and Xiao Ke understand a little bit or two?"
The smug look on Xiong Qingzhong's face froze violently, and then an expression of anger and resentment mixed together, he didn't answer, he reached out and picked up the glass of wine I poured for him in front of him and drank it all, Xiong Qingzhong just put down the cup, I quickly picked up the wine bottle and filled it for him, and after repeating three glasses, Xiong Qingzhong exhaled a mouthful of wine, stared at the red eyes and said hatefully, "The virtue is not obvious, the five veins have seized power, and decades of inheritance have been ruined on these eight words, ridiculous, hateful!"
My heart moved, Xiong Qingzhong's words revealed a strong sense of indignation, it seems that the surname Xiong was diluted out of the center of power, and there is another inside story, this is good news for me, the surname Xiong as a big surname in Chuzhong, there are many clansmen, in addition to Xiong Anhuang, there are more than a dozen branches all over Hubei, this is a force to be reckoned with, if there is a way to get in touch with them, maybe it will become a powerful weapon for me against the five veins.
Speaking of fighting against the five veins, when I met with them yesterday, I felt that something was wrong, logically speaking, since someone above had greeted me, then Chu Tianmeng should not have made another five-vein trial to embarrass me, the reason why they did this was only one possibility, that is, they had no way to disobey the orders from above on the surface, but they didn't want to be driven by the above at will, so they would come up with such a lack of morality to rectify me, if it was described in one word, it was Yang Fengyin violated.
I had the intention to take advantage of Xiong Qingzhong's mood swings to say some more words, but I didn't expect Xiong Qingzhong to calm down quickly, and his eyes returned to clarity, he slowly stood up and said coldly, "Chu Tianmeng's family affairs, you outsiders don't need to understand, remember not to miss tomorrow's things because of drinking, I'll take the first step." ”
Xiong Qingzhong left after speaking, I looked at his back, and secretly scolded the old fox, if it wasn't for the psychological gap just now, I thanked him for the grievances in his heart with a huge gap, and I guess I couldn't get a word from him, but although I didn't get the information I wanted at the moment, I already had an unexpected gain.
I pondered what Xiong Qingzhong just said, virtue is not obvious, the five veins seize power, hehe, interesting, virtue is not obvious, what is called virtue is not obvious, it is clear that the person with the upper position has no virtue, what Shangde refers to, must be the successor of Xiong Anhuang is undoubted, the meaning of this is probably to say that the Xiong family is immoral, so the five veins took its place and put it in ancient times, which is a typical palace change.
Originally, it was understandable to become a king and defeat the king, but it is a pity that since the five veins have seized the control of the Chu Tianmeng, but they have not completely suppressed the Xiong clan, this is equivalent to burying an unstable ** within the Chu Tianmeng, but I want to thank the five veins for their stupidity, otherwise, if the Chu Tianmeng deliberately set up obstacles in my search for Fusang Mu, who will I find to block the gun for me.
Xiong Qingzhong came over to stir up such a harmony, the wine must not be able to drink, and I was worried about finding someone tomorrow, so everyone dispersed.
After waking up and washing up the next day, we had breakfast in the hotel, and after a little discussion, we decided not to tell Qian Rong about it for the time being, in the end, Qian Rong was still sent to us by the power of Chu Tianmeng, it is difficult to ensure that he and the Xiong clan have nothing to do with it, for the sake of safety, it is better to act quietly.
In order to hide people's eyes, we did not drive our own car, but quietly slipped out of the underground garage of the hotel to take a taxi, after getting into the taxi, I showed the address to the driver, the driver squinted at us and said in Mandarin with dialects, "This place is not easy to walk, it will take a lot of delay." ”
Yes, I asked for money, I looked at him with a smile, "Money is not a problem, but we are in a hurry, can you get to the place in the shortest possible time?"
As soon as he heard that money was not a problem, Xiao Squinting immediately became excited, patted his chest and said, "Hey, it's not me blowing with you, on the ground in Wuhan, there is no one more familiar than me, don't worry, I promise to send you to the place as soon as possible!"
After the little squint finished speaking, he immediately put the gear on the oil, and the car galloped up all of a sudden, probably because of the good mood, the little squint talked about sex along the way, and the Tiannan Mountain and the North were with us, when he was happy, I interjected a sentence coldly, "I heard you say so much, they are all ordinary scenic places, you come all the way to play, I want to come and play something fresh, do you know where there is?"
The little squint was wary, he stopped talking and looked at Lu Worm and Lei Tong from the rearview mirror, his expression relaxed slightly, his strange change made me can't help but look back, only to see Lu Worm slumped on the chair with a lewd hooligan look, Lei Tong bowed down and stared at the double bull's eye and did not look like a good person, no wonder the driver would have such a change, he was probably afraid that we were the police pretending to investigate illegal occupations, until he was sure that the three of us were not half good people before he put his mind at ease.
As soon as the topic turned to the man's entertainment, Xiao Squinted put a few ** smiles on his face, "Brothers asked me the right person, let's run a taxi, can I still know a few fun places, but I don't know if my brothers want to play broiler chicken, or do they want to play tricks?"
Xiao Squint's two sentences are vague, playing broiler, referring to ***, playing Fangzi, it means gambling, Xiao Squint This is to test whether we are novices or old customers, I frowned, and said with a slightly worried face, "Fang Zi can afford to play, and broilers also have to play, but I don't know whether Wuhan is safe or not." ”
Xiao Squinted smiled when he heard this, "If you go to find it yourself, it will definitely not be safe, buddy usually watch the news, how nervous is the anti-pornography and anti-pornography now, who dares to commit a crime against the wind, but I will introduce it to you It is different, the safety factor is top." ”
"Oh," I said, with a look of disbelief, "why?"
Xiao Squinting lowered his voice, "Dude, since we are in love, I will give you a secret, I dare to boast to you about Haikou and ensure safety, as for why, I will ask more, everyone, have you ever heard of the name of Chu Tianmeng?"
I was taken aback, this time it was not pretended, I never expected that I would hear the name of Chu Tianmeng in the mouth of a taxi driver, everyone must understand, Chu Tianmeng is not a small gang of underworlds, it is the leading force on the ground in Hubei, with the economic strength of Hubei, just the money on the surface, Chu Tianmeng can't earn it, where is the need to contaminate the gray industry of Miss and gambling, you can understand if you think about it carefully, if you have the kung fu to find a group of young ladies to sell meat, how can you build a building and the money will come quickly, not to mention that the former is still illegal。
