Eighty-two
82 Fang Xu agreed to accompany Zhou Dao to Shangzhou City this time, not only because he was also a shareholder of Hesheng, but Zhou Dao also gave him another 100 yuan. Fang Xu did not agree, but put forward another condition.
Ziyang is counted as a county, according to the above requirements, it is necessary to recruit fifty archers, but due to some inconvenient reasons, it is not complete, and the actual archers are only twelve or thirteen, and Chengdu Fulu will soon send personnel to inspect various places, as part of the local reorganization of the army, so all states and counties attach great importance to this. For this reason, Fang Xu hoped that the remaining places would be made up by thoughtful people, and said that he would not be requisitioned as a part-time errand.
Zhou Dao asked, isn't it okay to pull some people to fill up at 0:00 before the inspection? Why do you want my people? "Huh? What is the use of pulling at zero hour, do you think Shangguan is easy to fool by eating white food? Once the drill is performed, it will be exposed. To do it is to do it well, and everyone can get by. It's not to watch your buddies practice every day, and you can draw it out casually, but if not, how can you find it? "No, no, I'm just afraid that if they don't do it well, it will ruin the adult's business." Zhou Dao hurriedly explained.
Fang Xu disagreed, "They all have a foundation, and it must be no problem to practice well." "Well, will they be taken away from time to time? That's what Zhou Dao is worried about. "This, brother, you just have to rest assured, they are just acting like they are inspecting, and they will not recruit their husbands casually, and I am also a shareholder of Halcyon, so I will naturally look to Halcyon. Besides, with this name, they can be considered to have served as an errand servant! Zhou Dao nodded, "Ask again, I don't know much about this, that is, archers should shoot arrows?" But my man, as far as I know, there are very few who know archery, I wonder if this will work? Fang Xu smiled, "Although they are called archers, they don't want everyone to learn archery, their main responsibility is to assist the county government to patrol and inspect the thieves to pacify the place, and the knives, sticks, guns and shields are counted." Of course, if you find a few people who have some foundation to practice bows and arrows, it's fine. Zhou Dao listened to the movement in his heart, and agreed.
This time, one of the people who went to the state city with Zhou Dao was Fang Xu, and the other was named Wugulun. He is Wugulun, who is a bandit in Qingyading Baofeng Village, and Feng Yi personally invited a helper. originally thought that it would take a lot of twists and turns, but Wu Gulun heard Feng Yi's intention, and did not say a word, only found an excuse to go out of the village, so he happily went down the mountain with Feng Yi and went to Zhoudao.
Later, I heard that Ugulun was not having a good time in the mountains. Although he has also made a small leader with his martial arts, the factions in the cottage are complex and sometimes there are fights. His Chinese language was strange and unpleasant, and he was a golden man, so he was ostracized, and if it weren't for the fact that he, a stranger who had been an enemy country, really had nowhere to go, he would have not wanted to stay any longer. Therefore, Feng Yi's arrival was also in line with his heart, and the two sides hit it off and left immediately. Ugulun went down the mountain this time, taking with him a bow and two pots of arrows.
On the third day when Zhou Dao arrived in the state capital, he asked Wu Neng to lead a total of more than 30 people to smash Baoyuanfang back, and it was smashed to pieces! After smashing it, he didn't leave, but waited for the people who came to them to fight again, and beat these almost thirty or forty people down again, before he went to invite Zhou Dao. Fights and brawls are usually done in the back so as not to get in the way of the fight. If you become the target of others and drag your own people to protect him, you can't let go of your hands and feet.
In this fight, both sides still maintained a certain degree of restraint, basically did not use knives, and both held sticks, trying to avoid death. It is as if whenever there is a fight in the city or in a crowded place, there is an unwritten tacit agreement between the parties, not to use swords, guns and arrows, and not to carry a debt for life. Zhou Dao felt that this was actually very good, which not only divided the victory and defeat without letting the situation get out of control, but also reduced the loss. It is common to do this kind of fighting for a living, and it is normal to win or lose, and I have fought again if I am not satisfied. But if you kill someone in the city, the nature will be different, there will be no way out in all aspects, and the government will not be able to step down. All parties involved will think that the act of killing people with a knife is against the rules, and ultimately harms the interests of everyone, including themselves, so they will not be compatible with it.
Duan Heqiang, the owner of Baoyuan Fang, was also beaten and sat on the ground. Seeing Zhou Dao coming in, Wu Neng asked if he wanted to abolish the leg surnamed Duan? Duan Heqiang scolded Wu Neng sharply when he heard this, "You kid is vicious, dog, remember you!" You're going to get things done! As long as I don't die, Lao Tzu will kill you, I will die, and my people will kill your whole family to take revenge! "You fucking bluff old man, slaughter you first and then find your whole family." Wu Neng kicked Duan Heqiang's chest and kicked him to the ground. Then he pointed to the bandage on his head that was still stained with blood and asked, "When you beat Lao Tzu a few days ago, you didn't expect to have today, right?" Now I will depose you, lest you come out and do evil. Duan Heqiang's eyes were bloodshot, and he stared up at Wu Neng.
"That's it! Enough trouble? Shall I say a few words? Zhou Dao stood in the middle and drank Wu Neng. Zhou Dao stood beside Ugulun, holding a stick in his hand, and his eyes swept over the people in the room from time to time. Zhou Dao looked at Duan Heqiang, who was struggling to support himself, and asked, "Boss Duan, what do you say today's matter should be?" "The knife is in your hand, ask me what I am doing?" If you want to kill the king, you will kill it, I have said everything that should be said. "Duan Dongjia was tough. Zhou Tong listened and nodded, "That's reasonable." Wu Neng, break one of his legs. "Hmm." Wu Neng didn't say much, called someone to hold his legs, and went to get a stick.
"Ahh You're a wicked! Don't you dare! Duan He struggled violently and sat up. What are you talking about? Say it again? Don't you want your hands anymore? Wu Neng asked him. Duan Heqiang's face turned red, and he didn't speak again, but he still tried his best to break free. The guys from Baoyuanfang, who were squatting with their heads around them, also panicked, "Zhou Dongjia, be merciful!" Our owner has offended you, and you have not found it back, please be gracious! ”
Wu Neng didn't stop at all, he asked Duan Heqiang to put one leg on an overturned chair, and he grabbed the stick and was about to start. "Wait a minute." Zhou Dao spoke, Wu Neng frowned, stopped and waited. Zhou Dao said, "If you don't teach me a lesson, just let it go, wouldn't it be troublesome for him to turn around and bite me?" An older Baoyuanfang guy waved his hands straight, "Don't dare!" Don't dare! There are lessons. "You don't know what you said, you have to ask him." Zhou Dao is good at a finger and strong. Duan Heqiang blushed and remained silent. "You still don't accept it, if you don't have a lesson, you won't know the pain. Wu Neng! Do it! "Serve!" Duan Heqiang finally shouted out of fear and no longer cared about face. "Serve! Wear! I'm convinced! Don't dare! Leave me alone. "Once a person breaks through the defense line in his heart, it seems that he has become a different person.
Wu Neng looked at Duan Heqiang, with disdain and disappointment in his heart. "You persuaded today, but you didn't dare, and you came back to make trouble in two days, how do you tell me to believe you?" Zhou Dao asked. "Don't dare, don't dare, take it. You and I are all the way, but I can't beat you! "Oh? After just a while, you're served? "He, that kid, is too good to fight! Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is also going to find this kind of person! Duan Heqiang pointed to Wu Gulun, who was standing beside Zhou Dao with a black face, "It doesn't matter where he is, Lao Tzu won't raise these rice buckets anymore!" "He's obviously very angry with his subordinates. Today, there is Ugulun, at least five or six people, and more than that. Look at his side again, squatting on the ground with a lewd face, Duan Heqiang sprinkled his resentment on them, this is a lesson in blood!
Zhou Daoyi listened to it, "You treat us as a hillbilly from the county, right?" Think this state city should be yours? Hehe, you just said something that I think is right: don't do things absolutely! Be a man and leave a line, and see each other in the future. Right. You remember, I will let you go today, we will do our own business in the gambling house, whether the business is good or not, depending on each person's ability, no wonder others. Whether you accept it or not, it doesn't matter, if you find trouble with me again another day, we will settle the old account and the new account together. These two legs are placed on you today. Zhou Dao paused and asked, "Do you understand what I said?" "Understood." Duan Dongjia's face was full of bitterness. Zhou Dao smiled, pointed to his head, and nodded. "Let's go!" After that, he led people out of Baoyuan Fang.
There were dozens of people on each side of this fight, and they didn't pay for their lives but saw blood, and they screamed in the city, but they never saw a single catcher hanging nearby. At both ends of the street stood far away onlookers-by, frightened and excited, whispering and whispering, ready to flee at any time when the fight approached, but reluctant to leave.
This battle showed the means, so that the newcomer Zhou Dao made some fame in the state city, and no one went to find his stubble for a while. Of course, everything is only temporary.
