Chapter 47: The Enemy's Scheme
All the way back to the inn, the two men who were following watched Zhang Weixin and a group of them enter the door lively, and waited for a while before pretending to be a guest in the hotel also entered the inn. After asking for a room, he motioned to the shop guy to call hot water, saying that he was on a trip for a day and wanted to wash up and get ready to sleep. The guy was naturally attentive, brought hot water, and after the two of them finished washing, they left with the kettle and the basin.
After the shop guy left, the two people who were still listless just now immediately cheered up and quietly walked out of the room. Carefully avoiding the attention of other tenants all the way, he came to the outside of the East Cross Courtyard where the people of the Jade Void Palace lived, pricked up his ears, and listened carefully to the movements inside.
At this time, Zhang Weixin and the others were busy all day, and they drank a lot of wine with the Qi family father and son at night, so most of them had gone to bed after a simple wash. Only two members of the security team, who were in charge of the guards, were on the first shift at night in two rooms that were more conducive to monitoring the entire courtyard.
The middle-aged man outside the wall heard the snoring sound coming from time to time in the courtyard, and his heart was a little excited, he reached out and touched the single knife behind his back, slowly pulled out the knife, and tiptoed to the courtyard gate. After listening to the sound inside again, and making sure that there was no one in the courtyard, he inserted a single knife into the crack of the door, intending to pull the latch open and enter the courtyard to fulfill his greatest wish. To his surprise, as soon as he flicked the knife in his hand, there was a sound of bells inside. Although the sound is not too loud, it still seems so harsh in the relative silence of the night. Moreover, as soon as the bell rang, a shout came from the room in the courtyard and asked, "Who is it?" Then I heard the door open and someone rushing out.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man quickly put away his knife, and took the young junior behind him to leave the vicinity of the East Cross Courtyard as quickly as possible, and quietly returned to his room.
In the courtyard, Xu Shao'an and Zeng Zhilin, who were in charge of the first shift, rushed out of the room together, and then listened carefully to the movement outside at the courtyard gate, and then opened the courtyard door under each other's cover and jumped out. It turned out that the aisle outside the door was empty, and there was no unusual sound around, only the cold north wind whining.
At this time, everyone else who had already fallen asleep was also awakened, and everyone came out to inquire about the situation. After listening to the descriptions of Xu and Zeng, most people thought that the bell hanging on the latch of the door might have been blown by the wind, but it was just a false alarm. But then Xu Shao'an found a fresh knife mark on the door latch to overturn this hypothesis, this clear knife mark shows that someone really wanted to sneak attack at night, but he did not expect the door latch to be manipulated, and had to give up the attack.
The sudden change made everyone sleepless. After Xu Shao'an rearranged the alarm bell, everyone gathered in Zhang Weixin's room to discuss the possible attackers. After thinking about it, the suspect's spearhead was gradually pointed at the escaped bandit. In the eyes of everyone, only this guy has a greater enmity with himself, and with his nature as a thief, it is still possible to do this kind of thing.
Although everyone here thinks that even if there is no alarm bell, with the ability of this thief who has slipped through the net, it is impossible to pose any threat to his life. Because it wasn't the bell that really allowed them to sleep peacefully, but the heavily armed security guards.
After some discussion, everyone felt that the sneak attacker had been frustrated by this, and presumably he would not come back tonight. So except for Xu Shaoan and Zeng Zhilin, the two guards who served as the first shift, everyone else returned to their beds and went to sleep peacefully.
After returning to their room, the two assassins who were scared away by the alarm bell did not stop for a moment, but after cleaning up their blades, they left the room again, and then climbed over the wall and walked out of the inn into the cold wind of the winter night.
Soon after, two Assassins appeared in a ghetto near the West City Gate, and the middle-aged man looked around and led the young man into a dilapidated shack.
In the shack, a tall and thin man with a lewd description saw someone coming in, first subconsciously touched the knife in his hand, and only put down the knife when he saw the appearance of the two clearly, stood up and hugged his fist to the middle-aged man, and said in a hoarse voice: "Brother Ding, how is the situation, can you find out where those people are located?" ”
The middle-aged man known as Brother Ding nodded at him and said a little unconvinced: "They live in the Yuelai Inn." A certain had planned to take advantage of their sleep to touch them and kill them. I don't want these stinky Taoist priests to be very alert, and they did something to the door, and before I entered the courtyard, they discovered my whereabouts. And the martial arts of these people are not weak, just that Taoist priest named Qingchen is extremely difficult to deal with. What's more, they are still outnumbered, and it is not possible to fight them hard, so we have to withdraw for the time being. ”
The slender obscene man heard that he was reasonable, and knew that the only way to get revenge was to think of another way, so he sat down on a broken mat spread on the ground. took the wine gourd that was put aside, drank two sips of cold wine, handed the gourd to the middle-aged man, and said: "Brother Ding doesn't have to be discouraged, as the saying goes, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge." As long as you have perseverance, you will definitely succeed. ”
The middle-aged man surnamed Ding took the wine gourd and drank two sips, then handed it to the young student next to him, and then said: "The truth is this truth, but I really can't swallow this breath." It's just that it's difficult to succeed just by relying on the three or two of us, and it would be nice if we could say that the big Wei boss sent a large team of people to help. It is expected that no matter how high the martial arts of those stinky cow noses are, they can't resist it. It's a pity that both of us are humble people, and it is impossible for Wei Da to give us this face. ”
When the lewd man heard this, his heart moved, pinching the sparse beard on his chin, his small triangular eyes turned a few times, and said thoughtfully: "We may not say that we can't move Wei Da in charge." ”
When Brother Ding heard that there was still hope, he hurriedly urged: "Brother Shi Xian has any tricks, come and hear it." If this happens, my brother and I will be grateful in the future. ”
That Brother Shi Xian waved his hand and said, "Where did Brother Ding come from, what else did our brother say thank you or not." Besides, these stinky cownoses are also the enemies of the little brother, and the little brother can't wait to break them into pieces. ”,
This Shi Xian brother gritted his teeth and cursed the people of the Yuxu Palace viciously, and then said his jihua: "Although the Wei family will not be the enemy of those stinky cow noses in order to help our brother avenge it, according to the news that the younger brother heard from some local snakes in the county town, these cow noses have somehow made a windfall recently, and the amount is not small. In the past few days, they have reached a deal with a member of the city surnamed Qi, and it is said that they spent more than 6,000 yuan to buy several properties outside the Qi member. Today, when they came into the city, they sent relevant money to the Qi people and went to the yamen to go through the relevant procedures. According to the younger brother's estimate, the money in the hands of these bulls is far more than these six thousand, otherwise they would not have paid so much money to buy other people's properties. ”
When Brother Nading heard this, he probably guessed how this virtuous brother wanted to persuade Wei Da to be in charge, and he couldn't help but perk up and said, "What the virtuous brother means is that let's tell Wei Da that these bulls have a lot of money." With this money as bait, he is not worried about the greed for money. As long as he is moved, he will naturally find a way to get this money, then it will inevitably conflict with these bulls, and then we just need to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. In this way......"
"In this way, we will not only take revenge, but also not have to take any risks, and we will also be appreciated by the Wei family, killing three birds with one stone. Ha, ha, ha,......" Brother Shi Xian took over and said, and let out a smug smile.
Brother Nading and the young offspring laughed along, and the treacherous laughter was so harsh in the silence of the winter night that it frightened the poor inhabitants of the slums.
The people of the Yuxu Palace in the Yuelai Inn naturally couldn't hear this ugly laughter, except for the members of the security team who were in charge of guarding the first shift of Zuihou and Qingchen, everyone else slept until three poles before getting up. This can be regarded as taking the opportunity to be lazy, and when they return to the Yuxu Palace, they will not have this blessing, and the senior brother of the Yuxuzi will come to beckon them to get up and practice when the sky is just dawning.
After everyone got up, they washed up briefly, and ate breakfast and lunch together. After Qingchen retrieved the few weapons ordered from the blacksmith shop, the group packed up their vehicles and belongings and went on the road to return to the Yuxu Palace.
Zhang Weixin and others drove out of the west gate of Liangxiang City on the official road, and everyone was very relaxed and happy at the same time. This incident means that they will be able to move into the city soon, and they will be able to have more contact with this unfamiliar society, so as to adapt to this society more quickly. Although the life in the Jade Void Palace is comfortable, there is a famous saying that "born in sorrow, died in peace", and if you blindly enjoy it like this, there will never be good results. Therefore, the group of people on the road are chatting about how to live and work in the future, which also makes the trip not boring.
In everyone's talk and laughter, the convoy came to the woods where the master and servant of the Yang family were rescued yesterday. Zhang Weixin subconsciously listened to the movement in the woods, and seemed to want to save the beauty again. Only this time he heard nothing in his ears except the howling of the cold wind. Yang Damei, who has already sworn an alliance with him, will never venture out of the city again, she will only look forward to seeing her sweetheart when she goes to Haotian Pagoda to worship Buddha in a few days. Zhang Dacai, who had no chance to "heroes save the United States", had no choice but to turn his head and continue to brag and fart with Zeng Zhilin and Wang Feng.
Not long after the convoy of the Jade Void Palace, the three gangsters who had plotted against them last night came out of the woods on the side of the road. The red-faced Brother Ding spat hatefully in the direction they left, and said, "Damn Niubi, let's see how many days you can get away." ”
Seeing this, the young descendant who had been by his side hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him: "Master don't be angry, according to the disciples, even if they don't have gold and silver treasures, just because they killed those brothers in the woods, once Boss Wei knows about it, he will never let them go." We will definitely send troops to kill the Yuxu Palace immediately, and our great revenge will be avenged. ”
Unexpectedly, his proposal was not appreciated by his master, but was reprimanded: "Confused, what do you know." The brothers who were killed in the woods were all privately recruited by my brother Shi Xian, not the minions on the mountain. This kind of thing is the most taboo in copycats, how can you let Wei Da know about it. If we tell him, not only will we not be able to help us, but Brother Shi Xian will be punished for secretly plotting private soldiers, don't talk about revenge at that time, I'm afraid that even Brother Shi Xian's life will have to be taken. ”
Hearing his words, his apprentice could only say yes, and that Shi Xian brother hurriedly thanked him for giving him such a big favor. This big brother Ding naturally said again and again that brothers don't have to be so polite, and they should help each other. Then the three of them went to the official road, and walked towards their thieves' den in the biting cold wind.
In the evening, Zhang Weixin and the others finally returned to the Yuxu Palace. After dinner, the four members of the committee, the responsible persons of the various functional groups, Zeng Zhilin, Wang Feng and others gathered together to discuss and analyze the future development issues and the unexpected situation encountered in Liangxiang City the day before.
First of all, Zhang Weixin reported the situation of the previous day. Including the transaction with the Qi family, the content of Boss Chen's proposal to cooperate with the business, the situation of rescuing Yang Xiaoyun on the way into the city, and the situation that someone intended to assassinate last night. It focused on the issue of Yang Xiaoyun's relationship with himself, and hoped that the committee would approve the matter.
Fan Wucheng, Xu Shaoan, including Zeng Zhilin and Wang Feng, respectively gave detailed explanations of the relevant events for which they were responsible or participated, and improved and supplemented Zhang Weixin's report. Subsequently, there was a lively discussion on the relevant issues, and finally the committee made a decision on various topics based on the opinions of everyone.
First of all, the committee congratulated the successful industrial transaction with Qijia and commended the relevant participants. And encourage everyone to make persistent efforts to create more achievements in future business activities.
On the issue of Boss Chen's cooperation proposal in Tianfulou, the committee affirmed Fan Wucheng's relevant suggestions and authorized Zhang Weixin, Fan Wucheng, Zhao Dawei, and Song Feiyang to be responsible for negotiating with the other party on this issue. You Yuan and Hong Yan provided the necessary assistance, and the security team was responsible for providing relevant security measures.
For the situation that there were bad people in the inn last night who tried to do wrong, first of all, I praised the relevant personnel of the security team, and hoped that they would not be arrogant or rash, and continue to complete the future security work with high quality. The Committee considers that the possible identity of the perpetrators raised by the Security Group is very reasonable, and recommends that the Security Group strengthen the relevant security measures and, if necessary, take a pre-emptive approach to strike at hostile Shili.
Zeng Zhilin and Wang Feng were praised for their behavior of defeating the robbers on the way into the city. Of course, the credit of dust removal will not be erased, and it will be encouraged in an appropriate way in the future.
Regarding the relationship between Zhang Weixin and Yang Xiaoyun, according to Zhang Weixin's own requirements, referring to the observation and feelings of the entourage on the behavior of the Yang family's master and servant, as well as the review opinions of the audit team, the committee decided to approve Zhang Weixin and the other party to continue to develop. However, since the other party is currently a member of a secret organization, they are not allowed to enter the inner circle of the team's life until they have left the organization, or are able to completely escape the organization's surveillance.
The meeting was concluded with the resolution. Those who were praised and accepted the new tasks were all elated, and none was happier than Zhang Weixin. Being able to continue dating Yang Xiaoyun made him overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to tell her about it immediately. It's a pity that there is neither a phone nor QQ or MSN at this time, so I have to hide my joy in my heart, looking forward to seeing her under the Haotian Tower in a few days, and then sharing the good news with her.
