Qiao Ba held the yellowed scroll in his hand and read the precious words left by his ancestors intently.

At the beginning of his forties, he began to restrain his murderous heart and warm his Buddha's heart.

Before the age of forty, Qiao Ba commented on himself as golden. He hopes that after the age of fifty, he can be called a martial artist.

Forty years of polishing, and another ten years of accumulation, Qiao Ba is not sure if he can achieve thin hair, but he is working hard.

In life, people always have a goal and a hope to struggle. If people don't have ideals, what is the difference between them and salted fish?

This is such a bad and rough sentence, but it goes straight to the heart.

In recent years, Qiao Ba has gradually cultivated a Buddha heart.

In previous years, his surname was rough and arrogant, with a strong heroic atmosphere, as if he had a murderous label on his forehead.

But in recent years, he has learned to converge, learn to recuperate, and learn to brake with static. People who didn't know him could easily think of him as a learned old pedant. Wearing gold-rimmed glasses and stepping onto the podium of a classroom at a famous university in the country can also bluff those students who are not deeply involved in the world.

Li Si admitted that Qiao Ba had cultivated an elegant atmosphere.

But he also believes that under Qiao Ba's gentle appearance, there is a hidden heart of an evil Buddha-

He is no longer violent because there is nothing worthy of him to be violent. is no longer arrogant because no one is qualified to make him arrogant anymore.

But in his chest, there is a bloodthirsty evil Buddha's heart.

Once he tore open the elegant mask that had been polished for ten years, the fangs that showed would be extremely sharp and hideous. Li Si deeply believes in this.

"The tripartite forces are ready, I'm afraid they will fight to the death with Scar's gang." Li Si reported in detail on the situation in the North District, and he felt that Qiao Ba had become more and more cunning and far-sighted in terms of power in recent years.

His promise to the three bosses was completely empty words. But these three big brothers can be used against Lin Ze, and in the end they are abolished by Lin Ze, and even killed-

Until now, the three forces are completely opposed to Scar and have formed an alliance to counter them.

The reason for everything is nothing more than the picture scroll that Qiao Ba unfolded and the pavilion in the air that he sketched for them after half an hour of talking with the three regional elder brothers.

Isn't it amazing?

Terrible.

Li Si has followed Qiao for more than 80 years and witnessed his hard work, rise, ascension, and then to his current transformation.

Frankly speaking, sometimes Li Si looked at Qiao Ba who was sitting at the desk reading in a daze. In a trance, he felt that Qiao Ba was not the overlord who ruled the underground world of Huaxin City at all, but just a scholar who cultivated both inside and outside. An old pedant with a background and temperament.

But this thought was fleeting, and even made Li Si feel a little scared.

What kind of tempering and nurturing does a person have to go through to disguise himself from the devil to an angel?

Li Si didn't know, he only knew that Qiao Ba's realm was about to reach perfection.

"A mad dog bites a wild wolf with its fangs not bared, and I have no interest in the result." Qiao Ba said lightly, casually turning the scroll to the next page.

Li Si was slightly stunned, pondering the meaning of Qiao Ba's words.

Mad Dog, it's probably a tripartite force. Having lost their backbone, they are indeed mad dogs.

The wild wolf with its fangs not showing, I'm afraid it's describing Lin Ze, right?

Except for Lin Ze, who is still qualified to be a wild wolf in the eyes of the overlord Qiao Ba?

After pondering for a while, Li Si asked softly, "Are we going to do something in secret?" The chess pieces you have laid in the North District in the past few years may be able to fan the flames in this firefight. ”

"Let's see." Qiao Ba said as he wanted. "I don't think a wolf would want to bite a mad dog, that's not only unwise, it's stupid."

Li Si was surprised and said no more.

――――

As Lin Ze said, after three days of frantic fighting, the three forces really showed some signs of dying down. Compared to the early stage of the hungry wolf and tiger-like revenge, it is obviously weaker.

After three days of fighting, Scar lost more than 100 people. Most of them were arrested by the police, and a small number were taken to hospitals, and the death toll is extremely low. If it weren't for Scar's recent shock, many of the younger brothers in the North District would have joined him, and the loss this time would be enough for Scar to return to the primitive society overnight. But even though the Scar Man is strong now, it is quite painful to lose so many people in three days. I have already scolded the ancestors of those crazy people for eighteen generations.

While losing a large number of manpower, Scar also had a lot of fields blocked. It was a double whammy for him.

But in the end, after three days of this momentum-like firefight, it was already a sporadic fire, and it was difficult to start a prairie fire.

Scar is distressed about the loss, and the three forces are also distressed. Most of those big bastards have their own fields and manpower, and it is right to avenge the boss. But if it was for the sake of wrapping up, he was completely removed from the list in this long-term tug-of-war. They don't want to, either. So over the next few days, they resorted to roundabout tactics, occasionally disturbing, and engaging in a smaller fight, which was a continuation of the fight. Nor does it prevent them from continuing to make money and accumulating capital to make a comeback.

In about a week, not only the forces on the North District Road were turned upside down, but the police were even more exhausted. On the one hand, it is to maintain law and order, and on the other hand, it is a headache for these red-eyed bastards.

Are you all crazy?

Is it true that you came out to mix up for righteousness and to pull the wind?

Please, everyone is not too young, can't they honestly support their families?

Scar pinched the moment when the slightly tired bastards were dying and trying to regroup and make plans. Scar sends out a duel letter.

In an instant, the news spread throughout the North District, and even the entire underground world of Huaxin City.

What is a duel letter. Everyone on the road in Huaxin City knows it. It was a life-and-death battle to resolve large-scale contradictions and grievances. Only when the grievances are deep and difficult to resolve, the two parties will take this approach to solve the problem.

But in the decades-long history of Huaxin City, a group of gangs that took this route almost always lost in the end, and since then they have been removed from the road.

There is no other reason - such a vicious fight, this kind of ultimate battle of caste, can consume almost all the power of a hall. After the fight, it is difficult to continue to survive in Huaxin City.

So as soon as Scar gave this signal, the three forces were shocked.

But can you go back?

No.

The fight was provoked by them, and now that the other party has issued a duel letter, it will be difficult to raise eyebrows in Huaxin City if they retreat. Even if this vicious battle is won, the North District will be their world in the future.

It's worth it to take all your wealth and risk your future.

The three forces replied to Scar the next day, and said that they would fight him to the death in the Blackwater area after that.

Of course, the time and place of the duel are extremely secret. The younger brother who delivered the message was also deported on the spot, and he could not return to China for at least three years.

So even though everyone knows that the two sides are in the final state of readiness, no one knows when and where they will fight. I couldn't even find a chance to watch.

Heishui District is the most famous three-way area in Huaxin City. It is also the place where the scorpion became famous in Huaxin City. Because it is located at the junction of the north and south districts, there are often some violent incidents. The top has repeatedly worked hard to clean up, but due to many reasons, it is difficult to achieve the actual surname effect. In recent years, the law and order in Heishui District has improved significantly, and although petty theft has been repeatedly prohibited, there has been no major trouble.

In addition, the Blackwater area is mostly barren and wild, and it is very easy to find a place for a fire that does not attract attention.

Lin Ze took a cigarette in his mouth, squinted his eyes slightly, glanced at the more than twenty former members of the Little Knife Society standing in front of him, held a glass of liquor in his hand, slowly raised it, and said calmly: "This battle will be a battle of life and death, maybe there will be many of you in the group who can't come back." I'm not going to say insulting things that you don't want to leave behind, I just want to ask you: Do you have the confidence to come back? ”

"Yes!" More than 20 people led by Lao Yao shouted in unison.

"It's good to have." Lin Ze skillfully flicked the cigarette ash and said with a silent face. "These were the only people left in the 100th Brother. I don't want anyone to leave early. ”

More than 20 people had tears in their eyes. How can they forget that every time there was a big fight in the knife society, it was all a surging hundred people together. That aura, that picture, I can't forget it to this day.

And now? There are only a few more than 20 people left, and half of them are wounded. How bleak and pathetic is this scene?

Lin Ze picked up the liquor and drank it up, and said heroically: "Today is the prestige of the knife meeting, don't let the brothers over there laugh at us!" He struggled to smash the cup.

A crackling sound sounded, and Lin Ze left the room alone.

Lao Yao and the others did not go out with them, but each looked for a chair to sit down, and took out the knife on his waist one after another, stroked it very affectionately, and whispered softly.

"Old friend, this time, it's really going to be out of the mountain."

"Dude, I don't blame you for so long, do you?"

"Brother, I will not abandon you again in the future. I still have a lot of work to do, will you go with me? ”

If you don't say it with your own eyes, no one can understand the feelings of these core members for this knife.

This knife is not only their combat weapon, but also contains their feelings for the knife club. I will miss the brilliant knife of that year.

Inside the room, the sword light shone brightly, and the cold breath surged. All the members of the Knife Society were lost in thought. It's like remembering, it's like mourning.

It wasn't until the priest and the butcher got up that the members of the Knife Society got up and lowered the sharp knife into their waists.

"It's time for the knife to get back on its feet." The priest tore the corners of his mouth open and spat out two words. "Let's go!"
