Chapter 151: Double Flower Red Stick
When I said this, I saw a trace of murderous intent immediately appear on Shahu's face! His eyes stared at me, and then his teeth creaked, and finally a few words popped out almost between his teeth:
"It's you...... It's you! It turned out to be you! โ
That look was like a sharp sword, piercing me in a few days! At the same time, his big hands were already clenched into fists!
The scene suddenly became cold! Even the people sitting next to Shahu couldn't help but quietly move their positions to the sides......
My eyes were staring at the sand tiger without shying away from it, and the two of us just stared at each other like this.
At this time, the eighth master suddenly spoke, and he said lightly: "Shahu, don't you want to gamble your life?" We'll gamble with you in the big circle! If Xiao Wu loses, he will naturally give you his life. Speaking of this, the eighth master glanced at me and said in a deep voice: "Little Wu, do you dare?" โ
"Of course you dare!" I said proudly.
"Okay." There was a hint of jฤซng in the eighth master's eyes, and then he glanced at Sha Hu: "Mr. Sha, if Xiao Wu loses, his life is yours!" At the same time, this time, in addition to the share given up by our big circle, I will propose another share to you Luo clan association alone! He said this, apparently with a deliberate pause.
Sure enough, the bosses of the various gang halls present, whether young or old, everyone showed a little covetous expression! Obviously, the cake this time is really big, even if the eighth master declares that he is willing to give up the small portion, it is estimated that the value is quite high!
The eighth master took in the changes in everyone's expressions one by one, and then looked at Sha Hu and said, "Mr. Sha, if Xiao Wu loses, we will naturally fulfill our promise!" But what I want to ask is...... If you lose, in addition to handing over one life, what will your Luo clan relatives pay us for? โ
Shahu raised his eyebrows, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, and he shouted: "Okay! Eight fingers! You say. How do you want to bet? โ
I saw a chill inadvertently flashing in the eyes of the eighth master...... My heart moved.
I know that the eighth master only has eight fingers, so his nickname is "Fang Eight Fingers", in fact, he has always been very unhappy with this title, unless he himself occasionally laughs at himself. Otherwise, who would dare to call him "Fang Bazhi" in front of him? This kind of title obviously has a mocking taste of the eighth master's physical defects...... Now if anyone dares to mention it in front of him. That's just looking for death!
With his current status, no matter who he is, don't they all have to call him "Eighth Master Fang" in front of him?
But this sand tiger shouted out one by one. I already feel that the eighth master really has murderous intent towards him in his heart!
"Sand Tiger." The eighth master's tone is still very calm, but the meaning of the forest has been revealed! I only heard the eighth master say slowly in a deep voice: "I don't want much...... If you lose, your life will be gone...... Also, your Luo clan will be removed from Vancouver from now on! From the day you die, your Roche clan must withdraw from Vancouver Hua
Port city! No one is allowed to appear in Canada from now on! You are now in the territory, stalls, and fields, we don't want one in the big circle! Take it all out and give it to all of you! The eighth master's voice became deeper and deeper. It's like a lulla! His eyes flickered, staring at Shahu coldly, word by word, and said slowly: "Shahu...... Do you dare to bet! โ
Shahu was already sweating on his forehead, but he seemed to be very fierce, hesitated slightly, showed a decisive look in his eyes, and said, "Okay!" Fang Bazhi, just listen to you! If I lose, Lao Tzu's life is yours, without Lao Tzu, the Luo clan will be dispersed, and it will be dispersed! If you lose, you have to take out one more share of the benefits this time! โ
The surrounding Chinese gang leaders all had complicated looks in their eyes...... I was careful to notice that not everyone seemed to be worried about the sand tigers...... Although, from the standpoint, they should be on the side of the Sand Tigers...... But this kind of gambling doesn't seem to hurt them......
If Shahu wins, it will be a good thing for the entire traditional Chinese gang. Can......
If Shahu dies, the territory of the Luo clan will be divided between them...... If the eighth master is delegated on such an occasion, he will naturally not regret it!
In this way, it seems that this gamble, whether they win or lose, is very beneficial to them. Who would object to such a thing?
But I sneered in my heart: no wonder these local traditional Chinese gangs, who are obviously numerous, have been beaten back by the Vietnamese gang and other gangs for so many years...... These guys are just a plate of loose sand! Otherwise, with the power of the traditional Chinese gang in Chinatown for so many years, if they can unite and advance and retreat together, and work together...... Hmph, so how could the Chinese Gang be bullied so badly by those Vietnamese in Canada for so many years?
If it weren't for the fact that 20 years ago, a large circle entered North America, and the Chinese gangs in North America would still be in a state of being bullied.
Now, the sand tiger is clearly in a circle with them, but when we see the sand tiger gambling with us, no one stands up...... On the contrary, looking at their eyes, it seems that they are calculating, whether they win or lose, how much benefit they can get in this gamble......
It's no wonder that the eight masters and I calculated the big circle of competitors last time, from the Vietnamese gang to the Indians, to the Iranians, and then to these local traditional Chinese gangs...... The eighth master said that these local traditional Chinese gangs are actually not to worry about at all!
On the spot, the eighth master called Tiger who came in, and then prepared a life and death contract in front of everyone! In fact, this contract cannot be recognized by law at all...... But in the underground world, there are completely different rules from the real world! With this contract of life and death, at least we can settle down, no matter who loses or who wins in our bet, neither party can pursue revenge afterwards.
In front of the leaders of many Chinese associations and gangs, Sha Hu and I stared at each other like a pair of enemies, and then quickly pressed their handprints on the contract.
On our side, it is natural that the eighth master is a witness, and what is somewhat intriguing is that no one on their side is willing to stand up as a witness of Shahu...... It seems that these guys are well versed in the way of self-preservation, and are unwilling to openly stand on the side of the sand tiger and confront the big circle.
In the end, these old guys still pretended to recommend each other, and only then did they "promote" one or two old men who were "highly respected" uncles and uncles to stand up. But looking at the expressions of the two old gentlemen, there seemed to be a bit of reluctance.
The eighth master's eyes flashed silently with a hint of mockery. I didn't say anything, just pressed my handprint, and retreated behind the eighth master.
It should be said that the negotiations were quite successful. At least most of the local Chinese gangs have been scared in the previous large-scale conflict. Basically, they are all soft, except for the stunned green of Shahu. No one dared to jump out again.
The eighth master personally sent everyone out of the house, and I saw the jวng square car on the corner of the street from a distance. Sure enough, someone inside was quietly taking pictures with a camera. For this, the eighth master naturally saw it a long time ago, but he didn't care about it, just smiled slightly.
"Eighth Master...... Those jวng cha. I whispered.
The eighth master smiled and said gently: "Regardless of them, it's just some little minions." โ
Back in the room of the eighth master, the eighth master was still sitting in his chair, this time he didn't speak, and he didn't let me sit down. Instead, he looked at me deeply a few times and said slowly:
"Little Wu, you're a little impulsive today."
I looked at the eighth master, and from his tone, I couldn't tell whether he was angry or happy, so I just said very calmly: "I don't understand what you mean." โ
"You're getting a little impulsive. However, it seems to me that this impulse of yours is also very good, and at least in some cases, impulse is also a kind of proof of courage. He smiled, then slowly took out a pipe, slowly added some tobacco, lit it, took a deep breath, he used his left hand, and the only three fingers of his left hand pinched the handle of the cigarette butt, which was just squinting at me, and said lightly: "It's a good thing that you dare to stand up and defend our big circle." But are you sure you can kill that sand tiger? โ
I thought about it for a moment and said slowly, "I don't know." โ
"Oh? You don't know? โ
"I don't know." I nodded: "That sand tiger seems to have been practiced, and his skills should be good...... I haven't fought him, so I don't know if I can beat him...... But I only know one thing, I have to stand up for that scene today. Otherwise, people will look down on us! โ
"Good." The eighth master sighed, his eyes were a little complicated, and after a faint sigh, he said slowly: "After our big circle was able to land in North America back then, it immediately fought a bloody way and emerged...... It's just by not being afraid of death! Dare to fight! Those Vietnamese, how arrogant they were here back then! Those local Chinese gangs, so many people, so many forces, but they don't dare to come forward, and they are all shrunken turtles! But we're not afraid! At that time, who could think of anything that could not be beaten...... Let's fight first! Even if we bump into each other, we have to let people know that we are awesome! โ
After saying this, the eighth master looked at me and sighed: "Little Wu, you are very good, really good......"
But I don't know why, I feel that the eighth master's tone is a little deep, and even ...... There is some helplessness and regret.
"What is this?"
The next day, I was called out of my room early in the morning by Tiger. He took me to a room at the back of the parking lot, which was a very modest conference room with only a few broken tables, a very old color sรจ TV, and a DVD player.
Tiger asked me to sit down, hugged his arms and looked at me: "Little Wu, do you know how strong the sand tiger is?" โ
"It should be good." I'm just telling the truth.
Tiger sighed: "Shahu's real name is Luo Xin, he is the son of the former leader of the Luo Clan's Association, and Shahu is his nickname. The sand snake you killed was his cousin. Their Luo family is descendant, and there are only two men. Now Shahu is the boss of the Luo Clan Association, but do you know what he did before? โ
His expression was solemn and his tone was slow: "The Luo clan will not be the most powerful in the Chinatown Chinagang, but it is recognized that the thugs in the Luo clan will be the strongest!" And the sand tiger is the 'double-flower red stick' in the Luo clan association? โ
Double Flower Red Stick?
My heart moved, and my eyes narrowed......
Normally, many traditional Chinese gangs have traditional sรจ colors. In the traditional Chinese underworld, in the black language of the underworld, the members of the gang are called by code names.
At present, the most popular is the set of rules of Hongmen, in fact, that set of rules is not only used by Hongmen, almost most of the Chinese gangs, are using that set of rules.
The biggest in the gang is, of course, the "sitting hall", which is the abbreviated leader boss. There are some people below who act as elders, that is, the so-called "Second Route Marshal", but the Second Route Marshal has no actual rights, only a status of respect. For the rest, there is the military, that is, the "white paper fan" of the vulgar city, and when it comes to the bottom, it is the red stick!
The so-called red sticks are gold medal fighters selected from the many gangs in each gang! Only those whose strength is recognized as strong in the gang can be called "Red Stick"! In the black dialect, it is called "four-two-six", which means that four times twenty-six and then add four, which is exactly equal to one hundred and eight, which is in line with the number of one hundred and eight generals in Liangshan. Legend has it that Wu Song, a good man in Liangshan, was holding a red stick, so he called the gold medal fighter "red stick", which became a tradition.
And the double-flower red stick is recognized as the most powerful one among those "red sticks"! That is, the gold medal fighters selected again among the gold medal fighters!
"In Canada's Chinatown, there used to be an old tradition, every year after the traditional Lantern Festival, some traditional activities will be held, such as lion dance, in addition, there will be an internal competition between the Chinese gangs, that is, each gang will pull out their red sticks, everyone fights." Tiger said slowly: "In fact, in Canada's Chinatown, there was no 'double-flower red stick', and each gang only had six 'red sticks', after all, the gang will be big and small, and the double-flower red stick is an honor, but it is not easy to seal!" โ
I understand that.
Canada's local traditional Chinese gangs are relatively scattered, with some large and some small.
Let me give you an analogy, if a small gang of only a few dozen people can make some "double flower red sticks", but it is only selected from 100 people, and the gold content is really limited! And in a big gang of more than 1,000 people, even ordinary "red sticks" are selected from thousands of people! Although it is only a red stick, the gold content is significantly higher than that of the double-flower red stick in the small gang!
If you encounter a double-flower red stick in a small gang and be beaten by the ordinary red stick in a big gang...... Doesn't it seem that the title of "Double Flower Red Stick" is too lowly and worthless?
Therefore, in the local Chinatown, all the Chinese gangs do not have the title of "Double Flower Red Stick"! There are only red sticks in the gang, no double-flowered red sticks!
But there is only one exception, that is, in the old Chinatown, every other year after the Lantern Festival, there will be a competition, each gang will push out their most powerful thugs, everyone fights, and the only winner in the end can get the title of "Double Flower Red Stick"!
And this double-flower red stick is not a certain gang, but the entire Chinatown, and all Chinese gangs recognize the "double-flower red stick"!!
"Before Shahu became the boss of the Luo clan association...... When he was still a red stick, he dominated the ring four times in a row, and he was the double flower red stick of the entire Chinatown Chinatown four times in a row! When Tiger said this, his tone was very solemn, and he looked at me: "Little Wu, I know that you are very powerful, and I also know that you are very good...... But I still think that if you are in a fair fight, the chances of you being killed are more than 90 percent. โ
