Chapter 91: Rules
"Shhh Maybe she was too proud, or maybe she was too distracted, and her hand was accidentally pricked by a wooden thorn.
She put her finger in her mouth and sucked it, and suddenly remembered that once she accidentally hurt her hand by a branch, He had no intention of sucking the wound for herself with a nervous face, and thinking about it, she couldn't help but think of the young man in white.
I've got to find him! She thought to herself.
In the evening, I finally finished all the things that should be busy. After dinner, Xia Chen wrote a letter, and then went to the river to find a small boat that went southeast of the city.
The sunset sprinkled on the river, the sparkling waves also become golden, occasionally a few loud fishing songs, no matter how troubled the mood will be precipitated at this time.
Disembarking at the nearest stop to Xia Fu, she continued south along the green willow belt on the riverbank.
The banks of the river were still bustling, some with joy, some with sorrow, some with expressionlessness...... In this world, there are joys and sorrows all the time, and everyone has their own joys, sorrows, and sorrows.
Xia Chen looked at it, and suddenly realized something in his heart, people are no different from people, whether they are high or low, whether they are in a cage, the most important thing is their state of mind.
As she was walking, she suddenly heard a commotion coming from the shore, and following the sound, several people who looked like thugs in the courtyard had just disembarked from the boat with a man in a green shirt who was unkempt and covered in mud at this time, and from time to time punched and kicked him, and this group of people was walking towards her.
The pedestrians on the side couldn't help but hurriedly dodge to both sides, and some of them whispered.
"What's going on?"
"You don't need to ask, another one is going to be ruined."
"Look, that boy is a little familiar."
"It's like ......"
The more Xia Chen looked, the more he felt that this man in green shirt was a little familiar, and when he looked at it, it was Lu Qi.
By this time they had come to her. Xia Chen forgot to dodge because she was surprised, she actually didn't plan to dodge.
"Hey, get out of the way." A thug shouted. He saw that Xia Chen was dressed quite well, so he spoke quite politely.
Another black, thin thug shouted viciously: "Boy, are you deaf or stupid, don't blame us for being polite if you don't get out of the way." ”
Xia Chen said indifferently: "This road belongs to your family?" ”
"Hey! Do you know who we are, boy? The thin black man's mouth crooked.
At this time, Lu Qi raised his head. There was a look of surprise in his eyes. In an instant, it turned into anxiety again: "Chen'er, you...... It's none of your business, let's go. ”
The thin black man chirped, "So you know each other." Then boy, if you come out with three hundred taels of silver, we will let him go. ”
When Xia Chen heard this number, he had doubts in his heart. How could Lu Qi owe such a large amount of debt in such a short period of time?
"Brother Lu, what's going on?" These people are obviously not officials. is more arrogant than the official errand, what is the origin.
Lu Qi closed his eyes and shook his head constantly: "Su Su's cousin lost all the family house and tavern by gambling with others, and he also owed gambling debts, and their family fled with Su Su. ”
The thin black man said, "Hey, hey, hey." Don't talk nonsense, and if you can't get the money, get out of the way quickly. ”
Xia Chen was very indignant, and the Chen family was too inauthentic. actually used Lu Qi as a substitute for the dead ghost, and Lu Qi has now fallen into the hands of these people. These people will definitely be entangled endlessly if they don't get the money, and the more she thinks about it, the more headaches she gets, but her face always looks calm.
"Guys, I think this friend of mine was arrested by you because he couldn't get the money, right?"
The thin black man said, "You're right, we arrested him so that his family could ransom him with silver." ”
Xia Chen said: "He is not from the Chen family, and he has no relatives and no reason, so it is useless for you to arrest him, so it is better to let him go." ”
The thin black man grinned: "Boy, do you think we are all fools?" Let's inquire clearly, he and the niece surnamed Chen have already been engaged, and they can be regarded as relatives! You let us let him go, what if we escaped? Besides, no one will come to redeem it, and a young and handsome person like him can sell it for a good price. As he spoke, he glanced at Lu Qi with ill will.
Xia Chen didn't expect that these people were not arresting people indiscriminately, and he had no idea for a while. Money is not everything, but many problems cannot be solved without money! She can't watch these people treat Lu Qi like this, but if they come hard, it may cause more trouble, if these people dare to do such a thing, there must be a backstage, and besides, it is a matter of course to repay debts, and she doesn't take care of it.
She turned her back and took out ten taels of silver from the ring: "I didn't have too many taels of silver with me when I went out, and I invited a few people to drink tea with these ten taels of silver, and I hope to treat my friend well, and I will bring silver to ransom him in three days." "I can only use the strategy of delaying the army first, and then find a way.
The thin black man hurriedly stretched out his hand to take the silver: "Don't worry, little boy, let's make sure your friend has a comfortable life for the past three days." "These people have always been open-minded when they see money, and they have become polite when they see silver.
Xia Chen arched his hand: "Thank you." Then he looked at Lu Qi: "Brother Lu, don't worry, the little brother will definitely go to redeem you." ”
At this time, the thin black man said: "By the way, this little boy, remember to bring four hundred and fifty taels of silver in three days." ”
When Xia Chen heard this, he suddenly became angry, squinted his eyes and said, "What did you say?" Why don't you go and grab it? ”
The thin black man smiled: "This is the rule of our cyclamen gambling house, and everyone in Anyang City knows it." ”
Xia Chen sneered: "Since you tell me the rules, I just have two of them." ”
The thin black man was stunned: "What rules do you have?" ”
Xia Chen glanced at Lu Qi: "The first one is that there is a debtor who is wronged, and whoever owes you money will find whoever wants to go!" The second is called toasting, not eating, punishing wine, I want to calm things down, but you have to be aggressive, and I have to do it. As she spoke, she shook her hand, and the Wind God Slash was already in her hand. Although these thugs and onlookers kept looking at her, no one could see where the knife came from, and their expressions couldn't help but show surprise.
Since this ring recognized Xia Chen as the master, it was as big or small as life, and she could carry it on her finger.
The black thin man screamed strangely: "Lao Tzu sees that you are the one who toasts and does not eat and drink." After that, he rolled up his sleeves, took out a ghost head knife from his waist and waved forward: "Give it to me!" ”
Hearing this, several thugs showed their guys at the same time, some with sticks, some with knives, and shouted and pounced on Xia Chen together.
Xia Chen looked at their chaotic footsteps, and knew that these people didn't have much kung fu, but they were just some bullying minions. The knife in her hand moved at will, and with a swing forward, a strong wind forced the two people who rushed to the front directly back.
The thin black man and the other thugs were stunned at the same time, looked at each other, saw that no one was injured, thought it was a delusion, so they rushed up with the guy again, and looked a little more cautious and cautious than before. (To be continued)
