Chapter 229: Tiger's Den
Similar street scenes, the same crowds, if it was a river that didn't flow by, Ye Xiaoyu thought they were going around in circles on the same street.
On the small stalls by the river, there are all kinds of wishing lanterns; On the embankment, there are all people who put wishing lamps into the river, black and pressed, dense, like ants gathered together.
The atmosphere on the street is really romantic, and Ye Xiaoyu also wants to take a wishing lantern to the river like other girls, make a wish, and then put it into the river reverently, watching the lantern go away in the river.
But when he turned his head and glanced at Qingqing, who was hurrying forward without distraction, and thought about Lu Yishou, who was still suffering in prison, his wish to put a lantern was discarded in the small corner of his heart.
After several days of walking through the street, Sunny finally stopped at the entrance of a small alley in the middle of nowhere.
"Don't talk for a while, just follow me."
Turning his head to look at Ye Xiaoyu, Qinglang began to explain.
Even though Qinglang's face did not show a very strict expression, Ye Xiaoyu still felt the strictness in the atmosphere, so he nodded heavily and agreed.
The crowd that had just surged just now seemed to have disappeared in an instant. After confirming with Ye Xiaoyu, Qinglang began to walk towards the depths of the alley.
The surroundings are very quiet, there is no insect chirping, and you can hear the friction between the soles of your shoes and the bluestone pavement.
"Buy cigarettes."
Standing in front of a house, Qinglang said lightly after knocking on the door three times.
This must have been the code given by the person just now.
Ye Xiaoyu thought in her heart.
After saying the code. Someone opened the door. It's like entertaining ordinary guests.
But after entering the house, Ye Xiaoyu felt that the two of them should not take such a risk, at least they should be more prepared to come again.
Although Qing Lang has never said it explicitly, Ye Xiaoyu still roughly predicts the situation he is about to face. I just didn't expect it to be so bad.
The inner hall of the room was very large, and on each side of the hall stood seven or eight men with fierce faces, among which the first one sitting in the hall was a middle-aged man with a goatee.
Being suppressed by such a scene, Ye Xiaoyu felt inexplicably nervous. Although on the surface it is forcibly calm. But the steps are a little unfavorable. In her previous life, she was a good law-abiding citizen. Where will I deal with these people, so I don't need to say that I have experienced it, but I haven't even heard of it.
Suddenly, he tripped over the threshold under his feet, and Ye Xiaoyu "snapped". The whole person fell heavily on the lobby. Fall face down to the ground. Live like a dead fish.
"Hahaha......"
"Hahaha......"
"Haha......"
There was a burst of laughter.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect this little brother to know how to be polite, and no one has registered yet. He gave us such a big gift directly. Hurry up, I've taken this gift...... Haha"
The person sitting at the top said with a smile.
Ye Xiaoyu was helped up by Qinglang, with an embarrassed smile on her face.
Nima, who would have thought that there were two thresholds in this place, and there were small thresholds in addition to the big thresholds, Ye Xiaoyu was not very sharp just now, and after crossing the first threshold, he didn't notice that there was another one at all, and he was tripped up like this, so he fell into the mud.
I wanted to survive tonight in a low tone, but now it seems that I am really afraid of something.
"The legs and feet are not good, which makes everyone laugh."
Ye Xiaoyu smiled and sat down with her head bowed towards the top of the lobby.
After the goatee sitting on the top stopped laughing, the others in the lobby fell silent for a moment, as if nothing had happened just now.
The calm before the storm, Ye Xiaoyu was a little worried about the sunshine.
"You're the one who made a big fuss about Juyi Hall last night and wanted to see me?"
Goatee asked coldly as he locked his gaze on Sunny Weather.
"Yes."
Sunny replied.
"You're so fucking bold!!! Who lent you such a leopard guts and dared to ignore our Juyi Hall? I'll let you see tonight. β
As soon as Goatee's words fell, the big men on both sides surrounded him, and their eyes showed fierce eyes.
Ye Xiaoyu estimated that according to the height difference between the two sides, plus one of his legs can't move at all, even if Qing Lang has the ability to fly, he can't take Ye Xiaoyu out of the way.
"There is a life-threatening matter to ask Mr. Below, and it is really helpless to make a big fuss in the righteous hall, I hope Mr. will forgive me."
I don't know if it's pretended, but Qinglang still has a calm face, and his words are quite neat.
"Oh? Of vital importance? I'd like to hear what is at stake, is it as much at stake as you two are now? β
The goatee crooked his mouth and smiled.
Looking at it like this, it is probably for Qing Lang to continue.
"Tell me the truth, sir, this matter is related to my mother's uncle's life......
Qinglang said unhurriedly, and his words were smooth, much better than when he met the princess in the Yuejing teahouse for the first time.
Ye Xiaoyu couldn't help but feel a little relieved, if Qinglang continued like this and corrected her dumb state, it shouldn't be difficult to find a daughter-in-law in the future.
Realizing that he was now in dire straits, Ye Xiaoyu deeply disdained such a thought in his head.
"You want us to show you the ledger of the transaction?"
After listening to Sunny's request, Goatee was a little surprised.
Because it is a thing that cannot see the light of day, in order to prevent being framed or encountering the government's trustee, before the transaction, Juyitang not only requires the person who comes to buy to bring the household registration book and register his name, but also asks him to write down the residence of the family in detail. After sending someone to investigate and find out what was going on, they could finally sell the salt to them. This process can be described as a level of level.
Ye Xiaoyu felt a little sick at the thought of buying a salt and having to go so far, just a salt for cooking, should it be like a treasure.
"Hmm."
Sunny nodded.
Since sunny put on a wig. After sticking on his beard and becoming a bearded man, every time he made some movements, Ye Xiaoyu was a little worried, for fear that the wig and beard on his head would accidentally fall off.
"Hahaha......"
The goatee seemed to have heard the funniest joke in his life, and he couldn't stop laughing until tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes.
"That's a funny idea, isn't it? Although I heard that you made a big fuss last night, and your kung fu was very good, but I only heard about it, and. Why should I show you something so important? β
The smile on the goatee's face disappeared instantly. He was staring at Sunny with a playful expression, as if he was going to make a hole in his sticky fake beard.
Trouble in the Righteous Hall?
Hearing such words, Ye Xiaoyu instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
No wonder last night went all night on a sunny day, and only came back tired in the early hours of the morning; No wonder he didn't wake himself up yesterday: no wonder this Juyi Hall is in the downtown area. He deliberately sent Ye Xiaoyu back to the North District: it turned out that this paralyzed man had already planned to leave Ye Xiaoyu alone.
There was a big fuss in the Righteous Hall. He's really dying.
"I made a big fuss last night. Walk away. β
The sunny light next to him spoke again.
I'm going to-
The man with facial paralysis is too ashamed, right?
Even if you can get out of it last night, you can't necessarily do it tonight! There are so many big men, plus Ye Xiaoyu with a crippled leg. I didn't get out of the way, but I lost myself.
"Hahaha...... It's kind of fucking. But the hero doesn't mention the courage of the year, I didn't see how brave you were last night, so let's compare it again, if you can snatch this knife from me, then I'll make an exception for you to take a look......"
The goatee said and "flew" from his seat and landed opposite the sunny side, still holding the knife he had spoken.
will also do light work, this person looks like a martial artist who has been practicing martial arts for many years and has strong martial arts, and he is also a middle-aged martial artist who is strong and has a weapon in his hand; Ye Xiaoyu had seen Qinglang's martial arts in the teahouse in Yuejing, although it was not bad, but in terms of his previous performance, he could only be regarded as average at best, and although he was now dressed like a twenty or thirty-year-old Hu man, his actual age was only in his teens.
A teenager, unless he is an immortal, no matter how good his martial arts are, it is unlikely that he will snatch a weapon from a strong adult with his bare hands.
"However, there is a ugly thing I will say first, if you don't grab this knife from me within half a pillar of incense, then don't blame me for doing anything out of the ordinary to you, you must at least leave me one of your legs. Andβ"
Goatee paused.
"Don't blame me for not reminding you, this competition is not like a competition to recruit relatives, we are really working hard, in case we get hurt or something, we will bear the consequences."
"I agree."
"Wait...... Wait...... Wait a minute, sir, can you give me a moment to discuss it with my eldest brother. This involves the legs and feet, so it's better to discuss it. β
Hearing Qinglang blurt out and say yes, Ye Xiaoyu pressed the thigh that he had just fallen with one hand, and hurriedly stopped it with a step.
"Okay, but I'm not a wet market here, so I don't have that much time for you to grind."
Goatee said coldly.
With great effort to pull Qinglang to the door of the lobby, Ye Xiaoyu felt that her left leg was about to drag on the ground.
"Are you mistaken, don't promise indiscriminately, this is not a joke, you see that these people are vicious, but they are not good. Uncle's matter, we can find another way. There's no need to take the risk. β
Ye Xiaoyu lowered her voice and began to persuade bitterly.
"I'm measured."
Sunny is stubborn.
"You've got a!"
Realizing that the voice was a little loud, Ye Xiaoyu lowered her voice again.
"If you had measure, you wouldn't have left me alone last night and ran here, can these people have fun? You see I'm still dragging my legs, you still have to carry me back, we have to leave quickly, otherwise we won't be able to leave once we agree. β
Sunny is not only indifferent, but also stubborn like a hard stone.
"I'll carry you back."
Sunny replied lightly.
ββ¦β¦β
Why can't this person listen, Ye Xiaoyu is about to collapse in a hurry. (To be continued......)
