Chapter 54 Development Issues
Wood's eyes widened, and he looked at Yang Jiu motionlessly, his mouth half-open as if he wanted to say something, but he finally lost his words.
Yang Jiu walked a little closer, looked at the books on the table and the water marks that had not dried up yet, smiled, and said, "Progressive, haven't you seen you for a month, what else have you done besides learning to read and write?" "The familiar tone never seems to have left.
Affected by Yang Jiu's natural attitude, Mu Tou finally found his voice, and said: "Yang, Brother Yang, I, I ......" The young man's hand kept pulling the hem of several pieces of cloth together, so cramped, where was the calmness when he had just instructed others to do things, "I also learned kung fu, which was taught by Grandpa Duan, but after Grandpa Duan was gone, Elder Cai taught wood......"
Yang Jiu raised his eyebrows, how could this old man have the feeling of cultivating wood as a successor? It's not that he said, this wood is not outstanding in all aspects, and it is really a bit of a duck to teach from scratch. Even if there are really few people among the beggars for him to choose, even the girl Yue is better, but she is a little older, and she will not have any achievements in teaching martial arts.
However, these are not what Yang Jiu cares about, Duan Lao loves to toss as much as he wants, as long as he is happy.
"The opportunity is not easy to come by, you must study hard." Yang Jiu casually admonished.
Wood nodded excitedly.
"Then you continue, I'll go find Elder Cai later."
"Huh? Oh......" Mu saw that Yang Jiu was about to separate after a while, so he was naturally disappointed, but it was impossible for him to delay Yang Jiu's business, so he only swallowed like a mosquito, "That, that ......"
Yang Jiu left with a smile, regardless of the fact that Mu Tou was still there, regretting not asking if he really came back to build the beggar gang with them.
…………
This room was bigger and much cleaner than the one with the wood. Yang Jiu didn't pay much attention to the environment, but observed the man in front of him. Indeed, as Lian Yue said, the year of not being confused is also the type that does not smile from the physiognomy. And although the man is already an elder of the beggar gang, he does not wear shabby clothes according to the customs, and he is dressed in gray, which is not very inconspicuous.
When Yang Jiu was observing Elder Cai, this Elder Cai was naturally also looking at Yang Jiu.
"Duan Lao often mentions Yang Gongzi and says that you have amazing talents." I didn't expect that it would be Elder Cai, who was not good at talking, to speak first.
Yang Jiu smiled when he heard this: "I can't find a factual basis to refute it!" ”
“……”
Obviously, Cai Chang was honestly unable to respond to Yang Jiu's urine point.
"Ahem, does Elder Cai believe me?"
"Since Elder Duan said it, then Yang Gongzi's ability naturally doesn't need to be doubted."
"You're a die-hard fan...... I mean, though, do you trust me to tell me everything? ”
"This ......"
Yang Jiu shrugged, looking like he didn't care at all. "It's normal, and I don't plan to know everything. I'll just ask a few questions, and you can pick and choose what you can answer. ”
"Is Old Duan still alive? Where is it? When will you be back? Who are the forces targeting the beggars? Why did Duan Lao cultivate wood? Old Duan, what do you want to do with the beggars? ”
Elder Cai's eyes flashed with surprise. He was surprised that Yang Jiu hadn't inquired about his identity and Duan Lao's previous affairs, and he was even more surprised that Yang Jiu saw that Duan Lao didn't just want to rebuild his reputation, but had another purpose.
After thinking about it for a while, Elder Cai replied: "Elder Duan was hunted down, he was hiding in Wuti Town some time ago, and he left suddenly two days ago, but he didn't tell me the specific reason, I can only see that Elder Duan is in a good mood. As for Duan Lao's whereabouts, life and death, and return date, it is unknown. Aimed at the beggars, listen to the rain pavilion. ”
Hearing the three words of Yuge, Yang Jiu nodded, not showing any surprised expression, obviously this was the same as his previous prediction.
The beggars followed his advice and if they took the direction of intelligence gathering, they would inevitably confront Tingyu Pavilion. Sooner or later, this will be discovered by Tingyu Pavilion, and Yang Jiu and Duan Lao didn't expect this, but they didn't expect Tingyu Pavilion's movements to be so fast. It seems that this organization's intelligence network is even more powerful than they thought......
In fact, there was one thing that Yang Jiu didn't expect and forgot to calculate at this moment, that is, the riot he provoked, which focused Tingyu Pavilion's attention on him, and the small action of the beggar gang was noticed prematurely.
Listen to the Rain Pavilion......
Yang Jiu chewed on these words, thoughtful.
This organization is really in some trouble, if it weren't for the beggar gang, he would have forgotten about it!
If it weren't for the support of this powerful intelligence network, other forces would not have obtained so much information from him so quickly, and in the end, his identity was about to be revealed!
Hmm, without this Tingyu Pavilion, will he be much safer in the future?
The answer is self-evident!
Yang Jiu had an idea, but it was a pity that the outside world's understanding of Tingyu Pavilion was very disproportionate to Tingyu Pavilion's understanding of the outside world.
Tsk, let's talk about it.
These thoughts are a lot, but they actually flashed in Yang Jiu's mind, but they were instantaneous. He motioned for Elder Cai to continue.
"I haven't asked about cultivating wood, so it's hard to judge. As for Duan Lao's purpose, Duan Lao once explained to me, if Yang Gongzi asks about it, I will tell you - revenge, but I will try my best to protect the beggars. ”
Yang Jiu nodded. This answer feels like it's to be expected! He had already seen that Duan Lao had a story! As for other people's pasts and the future of the beggar gang, he didn't seem to care so much, and Duan Lao actually made a special explanation......
"I know the most. Kindness...... Since I've asked you so much, I'm sure I won't completely shake it off, but I'm not really interested in these things, so I'll just tell you what I think, and it's up to you whether you listen or don't do it. ”
Elder Cai was shocked, this was different from what he expected! But before he could ask, Yang Jiu started talking to himself, he had to shut up and listen, and the more he listened, the brighter his eyes became......
"Temporarily put aside contact with other regions to ensure the safety of personnel; The focus is on internal strengthening, in addition to the original specialty training, and then add a cultural training and martial arts training, the latter is the most important. By the way, don't tell you the news of Da Zhuang first, and stabilize the morale of the army at the moment. Set up a gang leader competition system within the gang, and those who have the ability can get it, and set up five great elders, who only need to review the character of the candidates. As for the outside, he found someone to quietly release the news, and heard that Yuge had mastered the whereabouts of the master of Los Angeles. ”
"That's all I have in mind at the moment, is there anything Elder Cai doesn't understand?"
Cai understood. But is Yang Gongzi really not going to do things in the gang? Listening to Elder Duan, at the beginning, it was Yang Gongzi who ...... you."
Yang Jiu interrupted Elder Cai with a wave of his hand, and said casually but resolutely, "Just let me do it on a whim." ”
Elder Cai's gaze was deep, but he was finally silent. Seeing Yang Jiu turn around and leave.
Yang Jiu walked out of the room and walked to the gate of the courtyard of the small courtyard of the broken temple, and saw the wood guarding behind the wall.
"Brother Yang, you ......" The young man obviously saw that Yang Jiu was leaving.
"I'll come back by the way, I'll leave after a while, I'm still staying in the Tongfu Inn in the past few days, you can come to me if you have something." Yang Jiu smiled gently, but what he said was so indifferent.
Mu bit his lip, he wanted to ask why Brother Yang didn't stay, but he knew very well that he didn't leave Yang Jiu's position and chips at all, so he couldn't say anything in the end, so he could only quietly watch Yang Jiu disappear into his field of vision, just like Elder Cai.
Seeing this scene, Elder Cai couldn't help but shake his head. This Yang Gongzi obviously didn't do anything, but he was born with a magical power, which people couldn't help but trust, and even relied on. Or is it the child's wood, and why not the self just now?
But he is the one who left the future to others, but is not in that future.
…………
Yang Jiu left the broken temple and did not return to the Tongfu Inn where Qingchen had settled them earlier, but went to the Lu Mansion, the real purpose of returning to Wuti Town this time.
On the way, Xiaobai couldn't help but ask: [Lord Yin, the ...... you said just now]
[Well, it's really a delaying tactic.] ]
Yang Jiu has never started a business in the end, and he has at most sat in the position of a small steward in modern times, coupled with the difference between the backgrounds of the two worlds, his original vision was too rough and idealistic.
Now he can see clearly that if he didn't listen to Yuge, as long as this beggar gang wants to develop, as long as he has time, it will not be a big problem. But now that there is an obvious target from Tingyu Pavilion, the beggar gang may not have enough time to develop. He had told Elder Cai before that he had released false news, and at most he was just causing some trouble for Tingyu Pavilion and holding them back for a while. If he can't make any substantial leaps during this time, when Tingyu Pavilion solves the matter over there, he will definitely repay the beggars more vigorously.
Although Yang Jiu kept saying that he was not interested in this matter, interest and competitiveness were two concepts.
[Is there anything that can be done about the main silver?] ]
[Hmm...... The reason why Yuge is so bold and easy to crack down on the beggar gang is nothing more than the low strength of the beggar gang. It is a fact that the beggars' own strength is poor, but the way to increase their strength does not necessarily depend only on themselves, it is not easy to fight alone, so find the head office of the alliance...... I don't know if there are any resources on Duan Lao's side, the key is that he is not here now, I think that Elder Cai was most likely Duan Lao's subordinate before, and he can't be the master. There is no definite number when Duan Lao will come back, so there is still no hope here. ]
[Is the main silver going to start from your side?] ]
[Hehe, I thought about it, the key is that I don't have much energy!] I also know the big names of other sects! But Yuexian is willing, and I will never involve him. ]
[Aren't there Bai Mufeng and them~]
[He?!] Do you think we have such a good relationship? Yang Jiu didn't think so, [Besides, he still has a Lao Tzu on his head!] I don't know what kind of character his father is, and when I explain the stakes to him, he won't believe it or not, but I can't afford to delay this time. ]
[What should I do then?] ]
Yang Jiu raised his head, looked at the blue sky in a certain direction, and muttered: [Let's talk about it.] ]
Retracting his gaze, Yang Jiu turned his head to look at the door of the mansion not far ahead, the Lu Mansion.
Yang Jiu was about to release the induction, when a team of people walked out of the door of the mansion, and when he looked at it, it was the young masters of the Lu family! Sixth Young Master Lu Xiuyuan is impressively listed!
Yang Jiu silently looked at the familiar face and watched the group of boys approaching him.
From a long distance, you can hear the elder teenagers who take the lead and speak obscenely about Meng Lang.
"Why are you looking at us with that guy in front of you?"
"I must think that the eldest brother is plump and handsome! I can't help it! The young master complimented.
Lu Fu is a wealthy gentleman in Wuti Town, and although the young masters all like women, they are not unplayed. And Yang Jiu's appearance seemed to them to be more beautiful than all the women they had ever seen! How can they not be evil? Who made Yang Jiu still wear the groom's coarse cloth clothes......
And Lu Xiuyuan, who was at the end, looked at Yang Jiu, but his feeling was slightly different from the others. Because he found that the person Yang Jiu was looking at seemed, like, probably...... Is it actually him?
The little boy didn't remember when he had seen such a good-looking character, and if he hadn't seen it before, no one would have ignored their eldest young master of the Lu family and looked at him as an unfavored young master!
Just when there were still a few steps left between the two sides, Yang Jiu seemed to finally realize something, and turned around to leave. But how could the eldest young master Lu Xiuwen just let go of the duck that reached his beak?
Lu Xiuwen stepped forward and stopped Yang Jiu, and the finger of the folding fan seemed to provoke Yang Jiu's chin.
Yang Jiu took half a step back, avoided Lu Xiuwen's folding fan, and looked at Lu Xiuwen coldly condescendingly.
"Yo, the beauty still dares to hide?!"
Beauty, you uncle!
"Watch your words, little brat."
Everyone didn't expect Yang Jiu to be so polite, and the few young masters who had never been used to acting as powerful were stunned! Seeing that Yang Jiu was about to leave again, Lu Xiuwen reacted and glared at Yang Jiu fiercely: "Stinky boy, do you know who Young Master Ben is!" ”
"A dog that doesn't have long eyes." Yang Jiu bypassed Lu Xiuwen and walked away without looking back.
Lu Dashao was so provoked, it was a cliff that couldn't bear it! Liu Xunwen, who was completely enraged, directly beckoned towards Yang Jiu's back with a fist! The others all looked at Yang Jiu with a gloating attitude.
But the scene that everyone expected was destined to be impossible. Lu Xiuwen's soft punch, Yang Jiu seemed to have eyes behind his back, and he made a mistake when he moved casually. But in the eyes of these young masters, who know at most kung fu, Lu Xiuwen is so close but missed!
And Lu Dashao couldn't hold it back too hard, so he directly took his whole person out this time and fell into a!
Everyone was stunned for a second, and then flocked to care for their eldest brother. Lu Xiuyuan naturally surrounded him, but he was always isolated from the edge, and he would sneak a glance at Yang Jiu from time to time, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Although the onlookers were happy and unlucky, they also knew that it was going to be bad, and someone kindly reminded Yang Jiu to leave; And some people immediately packed up their things and flashed people. As for the Lu Mansion not far away, when the family at the door saw this scene, one person immediately rushed over, and the other seemed to have entered the mansion to call someone.
Yang Jiu pinched his eyebrows and smiled bitterly. Labor and management stepping on the horse is passing by, how can you step on the ****?! Isn't this event trigger rate a bit of a loss?!
"Boy, stop!" The family who caught up drank loudly. At the same time, he rushed up quickly, lest Yang Jiu escape.
But to his surprise, Yang Jiu actually really stopped, and turned to face all of them. That disdainful and indifferent look made the family members and the young masters of the Lu family, as well as the three or four family members who had just been called out of the house and rushed over, all of them were so strange that they stood still for a while.
Yang Jiu sneered: "Bad seeds." ”
Xiaobai: Huh? How could the master take the initiative to provoke such a small character?
Lu Xiuwen was furious! "What else to see! Do it! A bunch of rubbish! ”
All the family members got the order, and then they picked up the guys in their hands and rushed forward, without any shame of bullying more and less. Anyway, they didn't do less of this kind of thing......
A total of five family members, carrying sticks, slaughtered Yang Jiu viciously. The cruel and smug smile on the corner of Lu Xiuwen's mouth had not yet expanded, and in the next second, just when the family members were still a foot away from Yang Jiu, five people suddenly flew out upside down!
Fly one foot high and fall two feet away. Five strong men lay on the ground, writhing and wailing in pain. Someone seemed to have fainted and remained motionless.
The young masters who had never seen the Jianghu people do it were stunned! Among them, Lu Xiuwen was the most, and his face was so shocked that he was white......
How could they not know how to kick the iron plate by now! The little masters who still owe some heat in the world, their first reaction is to escape! Moreover, this group of Xiaobai actually ran towards Lu Fu, and they didn't know how many ways to disperse the target!
Yang Jiu sneered and shook his head, and in a flash, he arrived in front of several people. Then one by one, I rewarded a few people who were still completely blindfolded, and slapped them one by one.
Loud slaps came and went.
The one who fell last was Lu Xiuyuan.
The young man looked at the tall Yang Jiu in front of him in horror, but the expected slap did not come. I only heard Yang Jiu, who was expressionless, coldly said to himself, "It's a pity for this face." ”
This face? My face? What happened to my face?
Then Yang Jiu left, walking in a chic and leisurely manner, but no one dared to stop him again.
Lu Xiuyuan froze blankly. After a while, his brothers in front of him began to cry out in pain, and Lu Xiuran also came back to his senses, and quickly covered his intact cheeks, lowering his head, lest he be noticed by his brothers. But I kept thinking about what I meant just now, who was that young man?
…………
After walking for a while, Yang Jiu released his induction again, probed a little farther, and covered the Lu Mansion.
The result was disappointing, Lu Xiuran was not there. It seems that someone took him away that night. I don't know what the purpose of the person who took him away, and Lu Xiuran is now alive or dead......
Yang Jiu finally looked at the firewood hut and stable that had changed hands, then retracted his sense and returned towards the Tongfu Inn.
…………
"Why have you been out for so long, aren't you just a few words!" As soon as I came back, I started to ramble on the song.
"I went out and met my old friend."
The alarm bell is loud, but he has to pretend to be gossipy: "Who? Tell me~"
Qingchen also put down the book in his hand and looked at Yang Jiu nervously.
"Just kidding......"
"Yang Tianyin, why don't you yourself!" A pillow is thrown out.
"Lisong, I found out that you like to lose your temper lately, throwing things at every turn! All I know is that there are a few days a month when women are grumpy, are you? Or are you having an early menopause? Yang Jiu grabbed the pillow and threw it steadily to Lige's side.
"You're a woman! I think you're thinking about women! ”
Yang Jiu smiled but did not speak. The heart says, labor and management miss men, miss my man.
Lige looked at Yang Jiu's inexplicable smile, only to feel that the ignorant karmic fire was getting stronger and stronger, but he didn't know why, so he turned around angrily and didn't look at Yang Jiu.
