Chapter 427: Abdication and Giving Way to Xian
Thinking of this, Tang Xiao's eyebrows couldn't help but pick, his eyes would be staring at Zeng Fang not far away, but he secretly guessed about Zeng Fang in his heart.
As the saying goes, the face is born from the heart, and this sentence is not just words.
Zeng Fang looks like this, so it is completely certain that Zeng Fang must belong to that kind of ruthless character.
Tang Xiao believes that if he doesn't follow Liuli's side this time, then I'm afraid that Liuli won't be able to pass the Hongmen Daoshan Blood Sea at all, after all, this is the rule of Hongmen, even if the fifth uncle wants to help Liuli, he can't help her in this matter at all.
Because of this, Tang Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and the emotions in his heart were a little lucky.
Shaking his head slightly, Tang Xiao quickly threw all the messy constitutions in his heart out of his mind, his eyes stared at the glass on his side, and said slowly: "Don't be so anxious, don't worry, I will always follow you, and I will never let people be hurt in any way." ”
"Thank you." Liuli naturally heard Tang Xiao's words, and a grateful look suddenly appeared on Liuli's face.
Tang Xiao smiled slightly, shook his head gently, but didn't say anything, but squinted his eyes and continued to look at Zeng Fang on the high platform.
Tang Xiao had a feeling in his heart that today's things would definitely not be as simple as they seemed on the surface. In all likelihood, there will be a fight in the end.
Thinking of this, Tang Xiao took a deep breath, and at the same time made a decision in his heart, no matter what, he must protect Liuli, only in this way can Liuli live.
Thinking of this, Tang Xiao's gaze couldn't help but be filled with an aggressive light, which quickly glanced around.
There are quite a few people from the Hongmen around them, and when these people faced Zeng Fang, most of them had undisguised excitement on their faces.
Obviously, in the eyes of these people, Zeng Fang is a well-deserved lord of Hongmen.
Of course, there are people who admire and are full of excitement, and naturally there are people who disdain and despise contempt. Tang Xiao glanced around, and soon found that there were many people with this expression.
When he saw such a scene, Tang Xiao couldn't help but secretly guess in his heart, and he vaguely had a detailed plan in his heart at this moment.
Taking a slight breath, he threw all the messy thoughts in his mind out of his mind, this Tang Xiao no longer thought about so many things, and stared at Zeng Fang on the high platform in front of him, which would not say anything.
Different from Tang Xiao's silence, this Liuli had an undisguised hatred on his face, staring at Zeng Fang on the high platform. To put it bluntly, if the eyes can kill, I am afraid that Zeng Fang at this moment is already full of holes in his body, and he can't die anymore.
However, even if he hated Zeng Fang on the high platform in his heart, Liuli did not stand up, but still stood behind the fifth uncle, waiting quietly.
This time, although Liuli is back, he decided to attack Zeng Fang. But all the plans were made by the fifth uncle. If you want to stand up now, it will inevitably disrupt the arrangement of the fifth uncle, which is definitely not a situation that Liuli wants to see.
Because of this, Liuli will hold back the hatred in her heart and wait quietly at this moment.
Time will pass minute by minute, just a moment of effort, many Hongmen bigwigs have also come to the scene of the conference.
Zeng Fang's eyes swept around, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
But Zeng Fang, who listened to this moment, slowly spoke: "There are so many brothers today, and it is really good to participate in the Hongmen Conference." I think everyone also knows what the theme of this Hongmen Conference is. ”
Speaking of this, Zeng Fang couldn't help but change his words, and said with a smile: "It has been five or six years since the contemptible people managed Hongmen, and during this time, Hongmen can be said to be thriving, I think, everyone will not deny this, right?" But after all, Hongmen is a gang, and it can't be left without an owner for a day, so this Hongmen conference is to decide who will become the real gang leader of Hongmen. ”
As soon as Zeng Fang's words came out, many people from the Hongmen who belonged to Zeng Fang couldn't help but shout one after another: "Then what is there to hesitate, it must be you, Brother Zeng!" If it's someone else, we won't accept it! ”
Zeng Fang managed Hongmen for five or six years, but he didn't do anything. The number of subordinates he has developed is also quite large.
Tang Xiao glanced at the many people around him, and his face couldn't help but show a look of sarcasm. These people are almost all small leaders in the middle of the Hongmen. Obviously, Zeng Fang was a smart man and knew that it was almost impossible to win over the high-level of Hongmen. In this case, the gains outweigh the losses.
It is better to directly win over these middle-level leaders, people are from the mind of climbing up, these middle-level leaders, when they learn about Zeng Fang's wooing, presumably except for those who are very loyal, I am afraid that most of them will follow Zeng Fang's back.
And this is also where Zeng Fang's confidence lies in becoming the boss of Hongmen.
Tang Xiao knew this in his heart, and secretly sneered, but he didn't say anything, just stood quietly behind the fifth uncle's chair, without saying a word.
Seeing the subordinates around him say this, Zeng Fang's face obviously couldn't help but show a look of satisfaction.
But seeing that Zeng Fang nodded with satisfaction at this moment, he stretched out his hand and waved it gently, and said, "Things are not so simple. I was just managing the Hongmen before, because there was no helper at that time. But today, the helper is definitely going to be chosen. How can I, Zeng Fang, be able to become the leader of the Hongmen? I don't think you should mention this matter, so forget it. ”
Zeng Fang said these words, but he was not really uninteresting to the position of the leader of the Hongmen Gang. If he really didn't plan to compete, how could Zeng Fang be here today?
The reason why he said this was just because he didn't want to give people an image that was too ugly. Refusal is the most suitable way to retreat.
Zeng Fang's subordinates obviously understood what their eldest brother was thinking. This will shout loudly: "Brother Zeng, you are the most suitable!" If someone else is the lord of Hongmen, we don't have to worry! ”
The number of people who said this was quite large, but there were still some people who were silent, and some even had undisguised sarcasm and disdain on their faces. Obviously, the ridicule and disdain on the faces of these people were only aimed at Zeng Fang.
Hearing the shouts of the people around him, the smile on Zeng Fang's face couldn't help but increase a little. But seeing Zeng Fang at this moment, he smiled and said: "If everyone wants me to be the leader of Hongmen, then I refuse, I can't help but be a little unfamiliar." Well, since everyone looks up to me, I'm going to announce ...... today."
Before he could finish his words, a voice suddenly rang out in the room.
"Wait!"
As soon as these words came out, Zeng Fang's face couldn't help but change, and a very gloomy look appeared on his face in an instant, but it soon disappeared.
The person who stood up was none other than the fifth uncle, the fifth uncle of this meeting was expressionless, his eyes swept over many people in the Hongmen, and he slowly spoke: "Zeng Fang, your ability, I can still be regarded as recognized." Although Hongmen has not expanded much over the years, at least it has not been annexed. ”
"That's all the credit of our brothers, brothers work together, Hongmen has the current situation." Zeng Fangmo didn't know what the purpose of the fifth uncle standing up was, so he smiled slightly at this moment and said softly.
Hearing this, the fifth uncle nodded slowly, but just when Zeng Fang thought that the fifth uncle would agree to be the boss of Hongmen, he saw that the fifth uncle at this moment changed his words and said softly: "You have also seen that the brothers around seem to want you to be the boss of Hongmen, but there are some words, although they are a little ugly, but I still have to say it, I guess you have no opinion, right?" ”
"No, of course not." Zeng Fang hurriedly said. It's just that at this moment, no one saw the flash of murder in Zeng Fang's eyes.
For the fifth uncle to stand up, and it seems to be looking for his own trouble, preventing himself from being the boss of Hongmen, Zeng Fang's heart is quite unhappy. However, he also knew that even if he was unhappy in his heart, if he wanted to destroy the fifth uncle, it would only be a matter for the future. In this situation, he will never be able to make any moves. Otherwise, it gives people the impression that they are narrow-minded. If that is the case, it will inevitably have a bad impact on him, and this is definitely not a situation that Zeng Fang wants to see.
So at this moment, even if Zeng Fang was unhappy in his heart, he could only suppress this unhappiness in his heart and quietly listen to the words of the fifth uncle.
When he saw that Zeng Fang was willing to listen to his words, the fifth uncle nodded slowly, and his eyes once again swept over the Hongmen people present, and he slowly spoke: "Since you are willing to listen to a few words from me, it is really appropriate." There is actually nothing wrong with you being the boss of Hongmen, but you have forgotten one thing. ”
"What did I forget?" Zeng Fang raised his eyebrows, and there was a look of confusion on his face.
Obviously, Zeng Fang still felt a little confused in his heart about what the fifth uncle said about forgetting an important thing.
A smile suddenly appeared on the fifth uncle's face, but the fifth uncle who listened to it at this moment slowly said: "It's very simple, the time you entered the Hongmen is not short. When you entered Hongmen, the old gang leader was still alive. So you can't deny that, right? ”
Zeng Fang couldn't help but nodded lightly when he heard this, this kind of thing is impossible to hide at all. If you don't admit it, that's what stupid people do. Therefore, Zeng Fang at this moment must also admit that what the fifth uncle said can be said to be not wrong at all.
The fifth uncle glanced at Zeng Fang deeply, and said: "Since you entered the Hongmen when the old gang leader was still there, then you should also be quite familiar with some of the rules of our Hongmen." If you want to become the boss of Hongmen, you not only need the recognition of the people, but more importantly, you also need to have the token of our Hongmen. Now, I just want to ask, Zeng Fang, do you have the token of Hongmen in your hand? If not, you would not be the boss of Hongmen. ”
