Chapter Fifty-Eight: Fiery Red Maple Leaves
Chapter Fifty-Eight: Fiery Red Maple Leaves
The gang called "Sun Greeting Society" in Penghe County did something "intolerable" because of the search for Zuo Feng's whereabouts, so it had to dig up the history of gangsters in the Ryukyu area.
As Chinese people know, Ryukyu Island has always belonged to the territory of China, but Ryukyu Island is isolated overseas, because of some historical reasons, that is, in modern times, the governance here is still very chaotic. It is an open secret that gangs are rampant, but there are more than 1,000 large and small gangs in the Ryukyus, with a population of more than 20 million.
In addition, gangs in the Ryukyu region have a long history, and the power of gangs in modern times has penetrated into all walks of life in the region. This "Sun Worship Society" on Penghe Island is notorious, and has always been rampant around the Penghe Islands, and this gang traces its history back to the early Japanese colonial rule of the Ryukyu region, although the Japanese State was defeated in the last century, but the residual poison is still there, similar to the Japanese Greeting Society, such a rogue organization of the Japanese remnants still exists, and there are hundreds of gang members of the Sun Worship Society, most of whom are related to the Japanese relics.
Therefore, compared to the Ryukyus, an isolated island hanging overseas, it is really not easy to have such a vast territory and so many people in the mainland of China, and now it can govern the country and the people, and the public security situation is very famous all over the world.
Of course, these Zuo Feng are usually neighbors with Zhang Houde, and they were heard when he chatted with the lonely old man "Uncle Zhang" who greeted Zuo Feng just now.
And Uncle Zhang also told Zuo Feng that the villagers of this Fenglaiyu fisherman village have a lot to do with the other side of the strait, according to Uncle Zhang, the history of their fishing village only began in the anti-Japanese period of the Ming Dynasty, and many of them were anti-Japanese soldiers who were separated at sea and lived here and began to thrive on Fenglaiyu.
Zuo Feng only listened to the words of Uncle Zhang, an old man, as interest, but today he let him know that this "sun salutation party" provoked him, even if it was not for the sake of the nation, but for himself, he had to give Zhang Houde's family an explanation!
......
Zuo Feng looked at Zhang Houde, a man who was originally strong and honest, and became so decadent overnight, Zuo Feng's heart was even more uncomfortable.
"Uncle De, you take this thing, I don't know how much it's worth, but because I made your family suffer, I ...... You can take it as a little bit of my heart......" Zuo Feng took out the natural pearls in his arms, leaving only two.
Zhang Houde took the pearl handed over by Zuo Feng with some numbness, and suddenly his eyes lit up, because he was an old fisherman, he still knew something about these sea treasures, "Top black ......pearl! This pearl-producing mussel must be at least a few hundred years old......"
Zhang Houde held this silver and somewhat blackened peerless pearl with metallic luster, and his rough hands trembled a little, black pearls were already rare and precious, not to mention this egg-sized hundred-year-old pearl.
Zhang Houde swallowed his saliva, and then handed the pearl in his hand to Zuo Feng, his mouth was a little dry, and said, "Brother Zuo, Uncle De doesn't dare to ask for it, this ...... This bead is so precious!"
"Alas......" Zuo Feng didn't answer, didn't look at the pearl again, and sighed with a long sigh behind his back, "Uncle De, you can take the things, so that Xiaodao will feel better, no matter how precious the things are, can they redeem everything that happened last night......?"
Zuo Feng didn't care about Uncle De's politeness, he walked out of the room with a heavy heart, came to Zhang Ruifen's door, hesitated for a long time, but didn't dare to knock on the door.
Zuo Feng, who was standing outside the door, was in a complicated mood, and after hesitating for a long time, he still knocked on the door of the little girl's room, there were two girls who were about the same age as Zhang Ruifen in the room, one of them sat on the edge of the bed, Zhang Ruifen leaned against the head of the bed, with a wooden and haggard face, and when Zuo Feng entered the door, a bright light flashed in the girl's eyes, but in an instant her eyes became dim again.
Looking at Zhang Ruifen's little girl, there was no vitality on her face, Zuo Feng's heart was like a knife, how much trouble did she have to suffer to make this usually smart and dexterous girl become so loveless?
The two female companions who accompanied Zhang Ruifen were very sensible, and after a few comforts, they quietly left the room. Zuo Feng sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the little girl, his expression was sad, and he felt very uncomfortable.
Zuo Feng didn't speak, just took the little girl's already cold little hand, and secretly gave her a trace of true qi to help her regulate her body breath.
A trace of surprise flashed in Zhang Ruifen's eyes, but then it continued to dim, and suddenly the little girl pulled her hand out of Zuo Feng's palm, plunged into the quilt, covered her head and cried.
At this moment, Zuo Feng's heart seemed to be dripping blood, his fists were exposed, and Zuo Feng, who had been in grief and anger, was really about to explode.
Taking a long breath and breathing, Zuo Feng tried to suppress the anger in his heart, stretched out his hand and gently patted the futon on the bed.
"Cry, cry hard! This may make it feel better......" Zuo Feng's words trembled a little, "Girl, I am the one who has affected you and your family, I ......"
Zuo Feng was a little choked, he couldn't go on, he held back his blurred tears to prevent the tears from falling, his face was sad, he was sad for this poor girl.
After a while, Zhang Ruifen in the quilt didn't cry anymore, slowly poked his head out, and looked at Zuo Feng's sad and painful appearance, Zhang Ruifen suddenly pounced on Zuo Feng and sobbed secretly.
"Brother Silly Wind, I'm ...... I don't blame you......" Zhang Ruifen, who was lying on Zuo Feng's shoulder, finally opened his mouth to say a word, but it was a sentence without any complaints.
Zuo Feng blamed himself even more, full of grief and anger, his mood was very complicated, he gently stroked Zhang Ruifen's hair in his hand, and said softly, "Sister Xiaofen, I have recovered my memory, my brother's name is Zuo Feng, the left and right Zuo, the maple ...... of the maple leaf"
"Maple leaf ......" Zhang Ruifen left Zuo Feng's shoulder, looked out the window and murmured, "The fiery red maple leaf should be the most at this time...... It is said in the book that the maple leaves in Xiangshan in the capital are the most beautiful...... I don't know what to get to the other side of the sea......"
The little girl turned out to be yearning, and her eyes finally had some light, but as if she thought of what happened to her last night, her face immediately became very painful again, and her eyes continued to dim.
Zuo Feng's heart also continued to cramp, he really couldn't bear to see this little girl look so lost and depressed, he reached out and gently hugged Zhang Ruifen's little shoulders and wrapped her into his arms, "Little girl, my brother is from across the sea, we can go over and see it at any time...... In just two days, we will cross the strait together and go to the capital together to see the maple leaves of Xiangshan Mountain......"
"Hmm......" Zhang Ruifen seemed to be a little satisfied and agreed, and slowly fell asleep in Zuo Feng's arms, she not only suffered, but also had not closed her eyes for nearly two days and two nights, and her thin body was already a serious loss.
Zuo Feng didn't have any movement on his body, and he didn't move like this, so he fell asleep soundly by the girl in his arms, looking at the little girl's quiet sleeping appearance, Zuo Feng's mood eased slightly, and he was also a little comforted in his heart, he was really afraid that this girl couldn't think about it, and he could sleep well, hoping that it would be a sunny day when he woke up tomorrow.
