Chapter 19: Four Tigers and Seven Brothers
Wushuang looked surprised at this time, and he hadn't come back to his senses yet, hearing Xiao Chenyan say this, he immediately became a little more worried, only to see Zheng Liuyi hugging his fists at Xiao Chenyan and saying, "Brother Xiao, please take a step to speak." β
I found a restaurant, found an elegant room, and sat down for the three of us. Zheng Liuyi took a serious look at Xiao Chenyan at this time, and saw that this person's skin was dark, and there was an awe-inspiring righteousness between his eyebrows, and he secretly admired it in his heart.
"Junior brother Zheng Yuanyi, this is the inner son of Wushuang." Zheng Liuyi bowed.
Wushuang saluted and said, "The little woman Wushuang has seen Brother Xiao, thank you Brother Xiao for your help." β
Xiao Chenyan hurriedly returned the salute: "Ashamed, ashamed." Zheng Gongzi is strong in martial arts, and Xiao is presumptuous. β
"Where does Brother Xiao say, when he sees injustice, he draws a knife to help, which is his true temperament and a good man. The younger brother admires Brother Xiao very much. Brother Xiao doesn't have to be formal, you and I are commensurate. β
While talking, Xiao Er put on the wine and food, Wushuang took a sip, took a small bite of food, and quietly listened to the two talking, and did not interject. I only felt that this Xiao Yuanyi seemed to have infinite secrets hidden in his body, making it more and more difficult for him to see, could it be that all this was given by the immortal in his dream? Fortunately, he is even more affectionate to himself than before, and it is inevitable that there will be a burst of joy and a burst of shyness in his heart.
Zheng Liuyi and Xiao Chenyan became happier and happier the more they talked, and the more they talked, the more speculative they became.
Xiao Chenyan raised the wine bottle and saluted Zheng Liuyi, and said: "As far as the foolish brother knows, the son of the Assassin Mansion is also called Zheng Yuanyi, I don't know if it is a virtuous brother?" β
"It's the little brother."
"How can there be such a clever thing in the world, it turns out that the foolish brother has climbed high." Xiao Chenyan's face looked respectful.
"Brother Xiao's words are wrong. Heroes don't ask where they come from, as long as they are men who stand up to the sky, I respect him a little. If Brother Xiao is confined to his family background, won't he fall into clichΓ©s? When Zheng Liuyi saw Xiao Chenyan's expression, he inevitably felt a little lost in his heart, a man who stood up to the sky and the earth, and he attached so much importance to his identity.
Xiao Chenyan was provoked by Zheng Liuyi's words, and couldn't help laughing: "This seems to be a little less stupid." In this case, the foolish brother said it directly when he had something to say. β
"But it doesn't hurt to say it!" Zheng Liuyi gave a toast in return.
"Xiao is not all about respecting the Zheng brothers."
"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Zheng Liuyi said strangely.
"Now the officials are corrupt, the fish and the people, only the assassin Zheng is a good official, the year before the drought in Yizhou, Zheng personally asked the court for help, exempted the peasants from two percent of the tax, Yizhou people are grateful. Knowing Zheng Gongzi today is really a blessing for three lives. β
Zheng Liuyi couldn't help but be moved, it turned out that Zheng Zongwen, who was not smiling, was so popular with the people, so he said: "My father should ask for his life for the people, and if he is an official and not for the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes." β
Xiao Chenyan heard this, and said in his heart: This son is really from the family of sages, his knowledge is different from ordinary people, and he has a great appetite for himself, so he asked: "According to what the foolish brother has seen, the skills of the virtuous brother are not trivial, how can he be injured by Shi Jing and Yang Kun, the two rats?" Even if Boss Lu of the Jinding Gang is in person, he may not be able to hurt you, it's really weird! β
Xiao Chenyan wandered the rivers and lakes, and Zheng Yuanyi, the son of the Assassin Mansion, was almost killed, and it had already spread all over Chengdu City, how could he not know.
"It's a shame to say this, the little brother has had an adventure since he was injured that day, and he has today's skills." Zheng Liuyi had a bottom on his kung fu, but he didn't know much about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and then said: "What is the origin of this Divine Spear Club and the Jinding Gang?" β
Xiao Chenyan took a big sip of wine and said, "You don't set foot in the rivers and lakes on weekdays, so it's naturally difficult to know." β
Xiao Chenyan immediately told Zheng Liuyi that there were many gangs in Chengdu, and the most powerful was the Jinding Gang, followed by the Sharpshooter Club, the Black Tiger Gang, the Rainbow House, and the Qianqiu Pavilion, and the rest of the gangs that fought petty were not worth mentioning.
The Ying, Xiong, Hao, and Jie of the Jinding Gang are all skilled in martial arts, known as the Four Tigers of Chengdu, and they have recruited a group of brothers under their hands, bullying teahouses and restaurants, and the common people.
The seven brothers of the Tong family of the Sharpshooter Club all made a good gun, and this Qingyang Street is the territory of the Sharpshooter Club, but these seven brothers seem to be quite chivalrous, but Tong Zigong is the most uncompetitive of the seven brothers of the Tong family.
These four tigers and seven brothers are extremely famous in Chengdu. It's just that although the reputation of the Four Tigers is famous, they also have a very bad reputation.
It is worth mentioning that although Caiyun Buzhuang is not involved in the disputes of the rivers and lakes, there are masters in charge, it is said that the weavers of the cloth village are all armed with martial arts, and the strength should not be underestimated.
What kind of rivers and lakes are this, it is clearly the underworld, Zheng Liuyi was disdainful in his heart, but he said: "Thank you Brother Xiao for your advice, I don't know that in Brother Xiao's opinion, if the younger brother is against the Spear Club, will he have a chance of winning?" β
Wushuang couldn't help but say on the side: "There are so many people in the Sharpshooter Society, how can you be alone?" β
"What the little sister said is very true." Xiao Chenyan nodded, "What's more, people's hearts are unpredictable, since Tong Qi has designated the location for the competition, it is inevitable to set up traps, and the virtuous brother must not be guarded against." β
"The little brother has his own thoughts, Brother Xiao doesn't have to worry too much." Zheng Liuyi smiled and clenched his fists.
Wushuang has been out of action for a long time, and the two of them have already been full of wine and food. Zheng Liuyi asked: "When the little brother sees that you behave and talk, you don't seem to be a rough person who can only use a gun and a stick, why is it reduced to performing on the street?" β
"I'm ashamed." Xiao Chenyan's eyes were gradually filled with hatred, "Brother Yu's family background was originally acceptable, my father was the owner of Xiaojiazhuang outside the east gate of Chengdu, with thousands of acres of fertile land, but the year before last, he was framed by Yiping, the Taishou of Shu County, died in prison, and took the title deed of our family's real estate." Xiao has been studying and practicing martial arts since he was a child, he can't farm, and he has no money to do business, so he can only make a living by selling art. β
Xiao Chenyan sighed, the more he spoke, the more angry he became, and slapped the table: "One day, I will let this old dog of Yiping repay it twice!" β
"Didn't Lord Assassin just ask about this?"
"There is a huge Yizhou, how can Lord Assassin Shi take care of everything. This matter is expected to not be transmitted to Lord Assassin Shi, Yi Ping has already made solid evidence, and this person is extremely powerful in Shu County, and Lord Assassin Shi has not been in Yizhou for a short time, and there is no full evidence, and he cannot be moved. Xiao Chenyan looked up at Zheng Liuyi and said, "What's more, the forces of the various families in Yizhou are intertwined, and it's not easy to do!" β
"This time, the little brother has offended the Sharpshooter Club by causing Brother Xiao, I don't know what Brother Xiao's plans are in the future?"
"It's okay for a husband to be at home. Xiao packed his luggage today, left Chengdu, wandered the rivers and lakes, and went wherever he went. Xiao Chenyan was not lonely between his words, but a little arrogant.
Zheng Liuyi was full of admiration, took out twenty taels of silver from his pocket, handed it over, and said: "Brother Xiao doesn't have to be like this, please wait for the younger brother in Xiaojiazhuang, after a month, the younger brother will go to look for you." These silvers are used as the assets of Brother Xiao's life these days. β
Xiao Chenyan stood up and refused: "If this is the case, won't Xiao become a greedy person for money?" β
"You and I hit it off at first sight, why should Brother Xiao refuse?" Zheng Liuyi approached Xiao Chenyan and whispered: "If Brother Xiao goes now, when will he be able to take revenge on his father?" β
Xiao Chenyan's heart moved when he heard this, and said: "In this case, the foolish brother is waiting for the virtuous brother in Xiaojiazhuang." β
