Volume 1 Crossing the rivers and lakes and wading into temples Chapter 8 You're right

In Lixiang Courtyard, Hei Liu was dragged off the bed by Lin Wu and stepped on his feet, and the two girls on the bed trembled with fright. Lin Wu glanced at them, looked down at Hei Liudao, and said, "Say it." ”

Hei Liu's face was innocent, and he said, "What did you say?" ”

Lin Wu stomped on Hei Liu's body again, and said with a smile, "Why don't I continue to help you recall your memories?" ”

Hei Liu looked up at Lin Wu with difficulty and said, "Master Jun, I really don't understand what you asked me to say!" ”

"Come on, take him to the back alley, don't affect people's business because of us." Lin Wu waved his hand to the back and said loudly.

In the back alley of Lixiang Courtyard, Hei Liu squatted in the corner with his head in his hands, and said with a bitter face: "It was the black boss who asked us to do it, I really don't know why!" ”

Before he finished speaking, his back was kicked by Lin Wu again, and Lin Wu roared: "Blind your dog eyes, you dare to move the people of the Lin Mansion!" If you don't tell me why you come out today, don't even think about getting out of this alley. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, spare me, I really don't know!" Hei Liu's face cried and begged for mercy.

After half a ring, a pro-soldier whispered something in Lin Wu's ear. Lin Wu smiled, looked at Hei Liudao, and said, "What I want to know has already been recruited, and it's useless to keep you, brothers, send him on his way." ”

Immediately, two pro-soldiers stepped forward, one left and one right, set up the black six and walked deep into the alley.

Ye Chen stepped forward and said to Lin Wu: "General Lin Wu, it may be useful to keep him, at least to identify who is the person who instructed him." ”

Lin Wu put his index finger to his mouth and shushed it, signaling Ye Chen not to speak, Ye Chen and Chen Bing were confused.

After a while, one of the personal soldiers who had just set up Black Six ran over, smiled at Lin Wu and said, "General, it's recruited, Xu Jing, the boss of the Black Snake Gang, instructed him, and he said that he was willing to cooperate with the yamen to testify against Xu Jing." ”

Lin Wu clapped his hands with a smile, turned his head to Ye Chen and said, "Brother, sometimes you can't do things if you are too kind, and it is good to be a little more aggressive, of course, the scorer." Don't look at the gangsters in these gangs who show off their might, but in fact, they are afraid of death one by one. This trick was used on the battlefield just now, mainly to deal with the tongue caught by our scouts during the march, but I didn't expect the effect to be so obvious here. After saying that, he couldn't stop laughing. Ye Chen and Chen Bing have a lot of knowledge, and they can still play like this.

The Black Snake Gang, the largest gang in Annam Province, has as many as four or five hundred gangsters, most of whom are ruffians and hooligans. The headquarters of the Black Snake Gang is a large-scale Lyli casino by the Green River.

Usually, there are always forty or fifty big men gathered around Laili Casino, these people are all thugs raised by the Black Snake Gang, and it is to prevent other forces from smashing the field. I don't know what the reason is, in recent days, there are always 100 people around the casino, some gamblers see this situation, these days do not dare to come to the casino to play, always feel that something big is going to happen.

In the backyard of the Black Snake Gang's headquarters, Laili Casino, a middle-aged man in a white robe and dressed as Sven was sipping tea, leisurely admiring something, this person was the leader of the Black Snake Gang, Xu Jing. I saw that in the middle of the courtyard, there was a knife Ma Dan who was wielding the fine knife in his hand, constantly changing his body style, and his face was also smeared with the makeup that only Peking Opera Dao Ma Dan hadant, which was extremely charming.

Xu Jing clapped his hands from time to time, and muttered in his mouth: "Third child, you have grown up again, this is much better than the opera garden outside!" ”

The third child in his mouth is the waving knife in the middle of the courtyard, and the people in the rivers and lakes call the flower ghost and the third master of the flower.

The flower ghost stopped his movements, smiled at Xu Jing and said, "Big brother, don't tease me, I don't know at my level!" As the two were talking, there was a noisy sound outside, and Xu Jing smiled: "I guess it's a lucky bastard who threw a leopard at me and won a lot of money, go, third, let's go and see." ”

Before the two of them entered the gambling hall in the front yard, another gang rushed to the backyard, bowed their heads to Xu Jing and hugged their fists and said, "Oh no, boss, someone is coming to make trouble." ”

Xu Jing and the flower ghost were both stunned, and then they both laughed again, in Xu Jing's opinion, isn't this the end of laughing! For so many years, only he went to make trouble on other people's turf, and no one dared to come to him to make trouble, which sounded quite new to him! With a wave of his big hand, he pushed aside the people in front of him and shouted, "Who the is this!" Why are you so open-minded, scattering wild on my territory, and not weighing how many pounds and taels you have. ”

It was none other than Lin Wu and Ye Chen who stood in the way of Lilai Casino. A casino man was stunned when he saw Ye Chen in the crowd, and then ran to Xu Jing and bowed his head and said a few words, Xu Jing looked at Ye Chen in surprise and said, "Is that the person you beat me yesterday?" It's fat! ”

Ye Chen smiled and ignored him, because he didn't know what to say! Chen Bing recognized this guy on the side, it was the big man who fell down first in the alley!

It turned out that after the battle in the alley yesterday, this big man ran back to report the situation to Xu Jing, and continued to stare at the Lin Mansion for the rest of the day.

At this time, the thugs around the casino gradually gathered and surrounded the Lilai Casino.

Ye Chen and Chen Bing were not in a hurry when they saw this, Ye Chen thought, anyway, there is Lin Wu here, and besides, he is an official family, so we are not afraid. Chen Bing thought, anyway, with Chenzi here, the big deal is to do it! We're not afraid.

Lin Wu on the side sat on a gambling table unhurriedly, throwing dice and playing casually. Xu Jing saw that these people didn't take the Black Snake Gang and him seriously at all, and he also saw a little disdain in the eyes of these people in front of him, so he was angry and shouted: "Brothers, teach them how to behave." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, two teams of soldiers wearing battle armor came in from outside the casino door and ran in an orderly manner, it was the Dragon Armor Guard, Lin Zhijiang's personal soldiers. A group of ruffians and hooligans were stunned, usually they are arrogant, but they have never been arrogant with soldiers! Since ancient times, there have been many people who have been afraid of officials!

Xu Jing didn't panic at all when he looked at these soldiers, but said calmly: "It turned out to be a few military masters!" It would have been nice to say no earlier, why make such a joke! As he spoke, he smiled and stepped forward to bow his hand to Lin Wu.

Lin Wu didn't look at him, and instructed his soldiers: "Xu Jing, the leader of the Black Snake Gang, is suspected of murdering the relatives of the imperial court officials, and we are ordered to assist the Annan Provincial Government to arrest Xu Jing and others, and there must be no mistake." ”

The soldiers immediately stepped forward and clenched their fists and said, "Yes, General." ”

And Xu Jing on the side was still not in a hurry, and said to Lin Wu: "I don't know whose command the general is?" ”

When Lin Wu heard this, he turned his head and smiled, and said to Ye Chen: "Brother, you tell him whose soldier I am." ”

Ye Chen said without thinking: "Your Majesty's soldiers today!" ”

Xu Jing and the others were shocked, His Majesty's soldiers today? How could I, a little person, alarm Your Majesty? Could it be......

When the Black Snake Gang thugs present heard this, it was obvious that some people began to retreat, they have rarely heard the word Your Majesty in their lives, not to mention that now someone is arresting people under the banner of His Majesty today, and it is still the boss of their own family who is arrested. After a while, one thug ran away, and there were two, three, and a group......

Chen Bing looked at Lin Wu and asked, "General Lin, why did you run away with them?" Grab it and ask for it, and you might be able to find some useful information. ”

Lin Wu replied with a smile: "Dare to kidnap General Lin's daughter, there must be someone behind them, and it is impossible for these little minions to know about such an important matter, the fewer people who know, the safer." ”

Chen Bing nodded thoughtfully.

The large army walked in front and escorted Xu Jing in the direction of the mansion, while Ye Chen and the other three walked at the back of the team. Chen Bing asked Lin Wu suspiciously: "General Lin, I don't understand why you didn't just take him to the Lin Mansion for questioning?" Why did you bring it to the yamen for questioning? ”

Ye Chen explained on the side: "You have forgotten the laws of the Chinese Kingdom, the local army is not allowed to interfere in the handling of cases by the local yamen. ”

Chen Bing was puzzled: "I didn't interfere, my own people were almost arrested, I don't know what the consequences were, what's wrong with arresting the culprit and asking a few words?" Besides, it's still General Lin. ”

Ye Chen looked like he hated iron but not steel, looked at Chen Bing and said: "If someone is behind this matter, then this matter will become very big, so big that General Lin Zhijiang, who is a fourth-grade general, can't control it, but if we hand it over directly to the yamen, this is General Lin's assistance in handling the case, not only will people with bad intentions not be able to turn over the waves, but also leave a good reputation for General Lin." Ye Chen looked at Lin Wu and said, "General Lin, I don't know if what I said is right." ”

Lin Wu gave a thumbs up and said, "Very perfect explanation." Immediately, Lin Wu asked Ye Chen again: "That Xu Jing asked us whose soldiers we are just now, how dare you say that Your Majesty's soldiers are today?" It scared me into a cold sweat! ”

Ye Chen said with a smile: "General Lin, you think, we are soldiers, they are bandits, but when General Lin's personal army entered the casino, I don't know if you observed Xu Jing's reaction." I watched it, he was not surprised at all, he did not have the innate fear of the bandit against the official, and there was not even a trace of panic in his eyes, don't you think it is strange? ”

Ye Chen continued: "If you dare to kidnap General Lin's daughter, you either have a deep hatred, or General Lin threatens his interests. I asked General Lin yesterday, and he was pretty sure he didn't. But what kind of business can General Lin have with the Black Snake Gang? Apparently not! Then there is only one explanation, General Lin threatens the status or interests of a certain big man in the army! And this big man is the person behind Xu Jing. So with the support of this big man, Xu Jing, a small leader of the Black Snake Gang, dared to act against General Lin unscrupulously, and even didn't care if he was discovered. ”

Ye Chen cleared his throat and continued: "That's why I said that we are His Majesty's soldiers today, as soon as we come, scare them and see if we can scare them into chaos, so that we can investigate the case." Aren't the soldiers of Annan Province the soldiers of Huaguo, and the soldiers of Huaguo the soldiers of His Majesty, am I wrong? ”

Lin Wu and Chen Bing looked at Ye Chen in surprise, and they were both stunned by Ye Chen's words. Lin Wu clasped his fists and saluted: "You're right!" I didn't expect Brother Ye to think so far, I admire it. ”

Chen Bing reacted and said: "Chenzi, this is the most successful time since you were a child, and I will obey you if you don't accept anyone." After speaking, he gave Ye Chen a thumbs up.
