The actor who played the old student Xu Ce on the stage was still singing hard, but Zhang Xinjie didn't have the heart to watch it anymore, and an unusually uncomfortable feeling filled his heart, like a thorn suddenly in his heart, but where was this thorn, he couldn't find it for a while.

Somehow, the lyrics of the actors on the stage just now echoed in his head, "Long live my book, the Forbidden City is ...... to kill a chaotic one."

He looked around and saw that everyone next to him was looking up to watch the play intently, and a few were spitting out their skins while eating melon seeds, and a few people were close to each other, talking to each other in a low voice, occasionally pointing at the stage, as if evaluating the actors' singing and acting skills.

Although Guan Xiaojun invited him to watch the play, he did not charter the venue, and there were still many audiences watching in this theater, not only Zhang Xinjie and Guan Yunshan.

Watching a play, it is lively when there are more people, and it is very boring for a few people to watch a play, Zhang Xinjie likes this kind of liveliness.

But now, although the whole theater is extremely lively, he suddenly has a feeling of loneliness in the crowd, it seems that for a moment, his whole person is isolated by the theater, this feeling is extremely wonderful, but it is also a momentary thing, after coming back to his senses, Zhang Xinjie laughed dumbly, and secretly laughed that he was sentimental.

He grabbed a handful of peanuts, peeled them slowly, threw the peanut kernels into his mouth, chewed them a few times, felt the unique fragrance of peanuts in his mouth, and slowly relaxed.

At this time, He Yongsheng, who was in charge of the game hall, was drinking with a group of gangsters in Yunze City.

People have friends when they have money, and they have status when they have money, He Yongsheng was in the Yunze area two years ago, and anyone could step on it twice, but now because he is in charge of the game hall and sells pirated tapes, there are more than a dozen younger brothers under his command, and he has become the number one person in the Yunze area.

Today, when he had nothing to do, He Yongsheng called a few people to come to the yard to drink, eat and play mahjong, of course, more importantly, to mediate some people's contradictions.

"Yongsheng, I'll give you a face today, give them a week of grace, and after a week, if they can't get together the money, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"

In the courtyard, a big man looked at He Yongsheng, "I am willing to gamble and lose! I have to pay back as much as I lose! Two months ago, the two of them lost 36,350 yuan to me while playing cards, and everyone was there at that time, so I didn't lie, right? For your sake today, I will erase the odds and only charge them 30,000 yuan, and my brother can be regarded as benevolent and righteous, right?"

He Yongsheng looked sincerely frightened, and said with a smile: "Uncle Biao, you are so face-saving, you don't say anything, it's all in the wine, I salute you!"

After drinking a glass of wine, He Yongsheng looked at the two young men sitting beside him who bowed their heads and said nothing, "Liu Qiang, Liu Guo, brother, I can only help you help here, I have already lent you two thousand, no more, brother, I don't have it anymore, you know, brother is just a janitor in this game hall, my sister is going to school again, the cost is too great, to be honest, I can't save money in my hands." ”

Liu Qiang and Liu Guo are from the nearby Liujia Village, the two of them are cousins, they dropped out of school two years ago and stayed at home, wandering around the world with nothing to do, relying on their big size and ability to fight, everyone was afraid of the two of them, and gradually became a gangster who collected protection money nearby.

These two people like to gamble, they lost a lot of money when gambling a few days ago, and now they have been chased by creditors, and they really can't hold on, so they asked He Yongsheng for help.

In fact, if they owed money to ordinary people, let alone repay the money, they would have slapped it a long time ago and let the creditors find them.

But this time the creditor is Niu Biao in the Yunze area, known as the "Eight King Kongs", there are also a few people under this person, and the plum blossom punch is also good, it is the old rivers and lakes in the Yunze area, and there are many apprentices, and they are ruthless, Liu Qiang and Liu Guo can't afford to provoke them at all.

The two of them and He Yongsheng are friends in the wine and meat field, and they have been chased by Niu Biao for debts in the past few days, so they begged He Yongsheng to come forward to adjust.

Now that He Yongsheng has come forward, Niu Biao has only given a grace period of one week, Liu Qiang and Liu Guo are cold in their hearts, 30,000 yuan is a huge amount of money in this era?

But they didn't dare not pay it back, last month because they didn't pay the account, the little fingers of the two had been chopped off by Niu Biao and someone, and now the wound has not been good, and when I think about it, it hurts faintly.

Liu Qiang raised his head and looked at Niu Biao with a pleading expression, "Uncle Biao, where are we going to get so much money? Our family's passbook has been stolen by us to pay off our debts, and now our brothers don't even dare to go back to their homes, where can we get so much money?"

Niu Biao's face changed, "I don't care where you go! If you don't have any money, you can steal, rob, blow up the bank, and cry poor in front of Lao Tzu! Don't you still have a homestead and a house? If you sell the house and homestead, the two families together will definitely be able to make up enough for 30,000 yuan!"

Liu Guo stammered: "Fang ...... The house was sold, and I ...... Where are my parents going? They're not going to beat me to death!"

Niu Biao leaned forward slowly, looking down at the two, "If you don't pay back, I'll kill you now!"

Seeing that the smell of gunpowder at the scene was so strong, He Yongsheng hurriedly stretched out his hand to separate the two sides, "Uncle Biao, Uncle Biao, don't be angry, don't be angry!"

He secretly kicked Liu Guo, "What are you talking about? Why don't you want to give Uncle Biao a glass of wine? As soon as Uncle Biao is happy, maybe he will give you a year of leniency!"

Liu Qiang muttered in a low voice: "We can't pay it back in a year!"

Niu Biao glared at Liu Qiang, "Hmm, what did you say?"

Liu Qiang's body trembled, and he didn't dare to speak anymore.

Things have come to this point, and the regret in the hearts of the two of them has reached the extreme, and they want to cut off their hands.

But gambling, once addicted, is difficult to quit, the two brothers have also lost money before, lost all the cattle and sheep in the family, were tied to a tree by their family and beaten vigorously, forced to kneel on the ground and swear never to gamble again. But within March, my hand began to itch again, although I said to myself in my heart that I would only gamble once, but gradually I couldn't stop it, until I lost more than 30,000 yuan to Niu Biao some time ago, and it was not to this point today.

After a meal, He Yongsheng said that Niu Biao reluctantly gave Liu Qiang and the two of them a month, if they didn't pay it back within the time limit, more than a week, they would chop off a finger, and after the fingers were chopped, then chop off the toes, and wait until the twenty fingers were chopped off, then start chopping the small head of the crotch, and chopping off the big head if the small head is chopped off!

When Liu Qiang and Liu Guo heard this, their faces turned pale, they didn't think about their belongings, and their hearts were at a loss, and Niu Biao was not happy in his heart, he originally wanted to get the homestead in Liujia Village as soon as possible, but he was stopped by He Yongsheng like this, and it would be delayed for at least a month.

After eating, He Yongsheng raised his wrist to look at his watch, and said with a smile: "I heard that there are singing operas in our Xiguan Theater recently, let's go and see ...... together?"

As soon as He Yongsheng said this, everyone laughed, and Niu Biao scolded with a smile: "Fuck, you bear things, you know that you miss girls! I tell you, only if you have money, you have girls, and if you don't have money, it's not yours!"

Although he said this, he was still a little moved, and got up and said: "Then go and take a look, anyway, there is nothing to do today!

A group of people walked towards the Xiguan Theater with a smile on their faces, only Liu Qiang and Liu Guo were full of bitterness, and the 30,000 yuan had become a mountain on their heads, which could crush them into meatloaf at any time.

At this time, Guan Xiaojun in the theater was also raising his wrist to look at his watch, and said to Zhang Xinjie: "Uncle Zhang, look, this play is also finished, should we go back?"
