Chapter 2: You Are My Sword
As soon as Duan Jing's words came out, Zhu Ming was stunned when he heard it.
The steward has always been only responsible for inspecting the plunder, registering and making a register to report to the gang leader, even if the captain is greedy for some buckles, it is also carried out in private, how can it be shown in the open, and now this kid speaks directly, it is really bold.
Zhu Ming thought that the former had the second gang leader as the backstage, so he decided to mention it and said, "Brother Jing should be the first time to carry out affairs, and he is not very clear about some rules. These things have to be registered and reported to the above, so this... Please forgive me. ”
Duan Jing suddenly blinked, and muttered secretly: "I didn't expect that there were such rules, and I couldn't even interfere with the position of steward." But I've lived in the Sea Whale Gang for nearly half a year, but I've never heard Uncle Yan mention that when the water is clear, there are no fish, so I really don't believe that I can't test your bottom line. ”
"Brother Zhu Ming, please take a step to speak. Duan Jing ignored Zhu Ming's thoughts and dragged him to a corner where no one was.
Although Zhu Ming was a little confused, he thought that Duan Jing's strength was far inferior to his own, and he was not afraid of what he was thinking, so he naturally settled down and waited for him to speak.
"It's really my little brother who couldn't hold back just now, please don't mind my abruptness, Brother Zhu Ming. In fact, the second gang leader has already explained, if there is anything you like during the inspection, you can discuss it with the captain in charge. ”
Duan Jing's unhurried words made Zhu Ming hesitate a little: This kid dares to say this, maybe the second gang leader really explained like this, could it be that the second gang leader already knew about our private deduction of the transaction? Let the big gang leader know that it is a great sin, and who of us brothers would dare to reveal it?
"If people don't know what they can't do, the younger brother also knows the stakes. Duan Jing observed Zhu Ming's expression, Zhu Ming's eyes were confused, and he clearly had a ghost, and he took advantage of the situation to pursue, "Then I don't know, can I make a deal with Brother Zhu Ming?"
Zhu Ming was lured by Duan Jing's follow-up, and finally couldn't help but confess: "Since you know everything, then I won't explain more." This thing is not going to see the light of day, since you want it, then it depends on what you are willing to give in exchange. ”
"These captains really have problems, but they are just afraid of the rules of the gang leaders. Duan Jing didn't expect that there was so much information in this exploration, and the battle hall was still like this, not to mention anything else, no wonder Uncle Yan repeatedly warned him to pay more attention to his eyes. It's just that you still need to make a show now, so let's use this to make a secret move.
As if he had made a plan, Duan Jing took out a vial from his arms and handed it to Zhu Ming, winced at him, and said with a smile: "I heard that Brother Zhu Ming was injured in a fierce battle two years ago, and the old injury recurred, and it hasn't healed yet." ”
Zhu Ming was stunned, what the former mentioned was his privacy, and he suddenly asked out loud: "Brother Jing, I never mentioned this, how did you know?"
This information is obviously in the information delivered by the steward's hall, why does this Zhu Ming seem to think that he is hiding it very secretly? Could it be that no one has secretly revealed the previous stewardship? That's right, those old guys are all like human spirits, and they all watch the show with a rare confused temperament.
Thinking of this, Duan Jing didn't intend to debunk it explicitly.
"It's inconvenient to tell. Duan Jing raised his hand, looking quite regular, "The Healing Pill was obtained by Yan Er's gang leader by chance. It's hard to find medicine that can heal your old wounds now, if Brother Zhu Ming is unwilling, I can find other captains, I believe there will always be one who can exchange for some good goods. ”
Zhu Ming's smile looked a little embarrassed, but in fact, he was still immersed in the nervous panic of being found private: "This kid has long known that my injuries have not healed? How is it possible? I have never mentioned this to anyone, how did he see it? Healing pills? He used the secret of the exchange as an excuse, but in fact it was to win me over?"
"Indeed, even if Bizhu Liquid is difficult to find, he has the resources of the second gang leader, and it is not easy to get it, which is much worse than spiritual skills. But how could he be so kind, but he didn't have to deceive me. The old wounds in my body may really be healed once and for all. What to do?"
"Heal Recovery Pill? He used the secret of exchanging things as an excuse, but in fact he was trying to win me over? That's right, I am a member of the third gang leader, and the second gang leader is sending Duan Jing to win me over! The third gang leader is as kind to me as a mountain, so he pretended to agree to him, and then used his hands and feet in the green bamboo liquid, so that he could steal chickens and rice. ”
Zhu Ming pondered, as the level of thinking and association deepened, the originally simple matter had gradually turned into a conspiracy to compete for power between the leaders.
And in his eyes, Duan Jing is just a young child who has not yet reached adulthood after all, although he has talent, but it will take a lot of time to grow up, if Duan Jing takes it carelessly, wouldn't it be a thorn in the side of the three gang leaders in the future.
Zhu Ming was determined to pretend that Duan Jing couldn't see the clues, put away all the impropriety, and then his face replaced it with a serious one, and said sharply: "Duan Jing is in charge, are you sure that this medicine can heal my old wounds?"
Duan Jing chuckled, as expected, the conditions given really moved Zhu Ming, even if he wasted some effort, but fortunately he got the green bamboo liquid as compensation: "Since you dare to take it out, you will ensure its effectiveness." ”
"Two bottles!how?" Zhu Ming was naturally old and spicy, how could he let go of such an opportunity to make a profit, and then he was afraid of bleeding profusely if he wanted to change from Duan Jing to this medicine, "As long as you are willing to take out two bottles, not only will the Bizhu liquid belong to you, but you will also take another piece of the things present." ”
"However, I will take the bottle of Huli Dan. ”
"Okay! Bizhu Liquid and Huli Dan are all yours!" Zhu Ming didn't think much about it, and grabbed the vial in Duan Jing's hand, for fear that the latter would regret it.
Then put it in his hand, and looked at it like a treasure for a while, Zhu Ming carefully put it away, waved his hand and patted Duan Jing's shoulder, and laughed heartily, "If my old injury recovers from the medicine, I should remember you a favor!"
"Thank you, Brother Zhu Ming, for cutting love. Remember, the more you take this medicine, the more beneficial it is. If you don't believe it, Brother Zhu Ming can take one pill and try it first to see if I lied to you. ”
Zhu Ming didn't say more, walked straight towards the Nanmu box, bowed down to take the action, only to see that when Zhu Ming's palm approached the cuizhu liquid, the palm suddenly moved, and the moment the bottle mouth opened slightly, a drop of colorless liquid came out from the fingertip and entered the bottle.
If the whole process was not supported by the strength of the eighth layer of Zhu Ming's casting body, how could it be completed in an instant, but it was a pity that Zhu Ming's burly body blocked his vision, and Duan Jing did not notice it.
Although Zhu Ming was in pain for a while, he still grinned, got up, Duan Jing immediately hugged his fists, and hurriedly took the two vials handed over, which were Bizhu liquid and Huli Dan Undoubtedly, and after careful inspection, he lightly put them into his arms.
Duan Jing took out the same bottle as the Yue Fu Pill just now from his arms and shot it towards Zhu Ming, who reached out and held it, tapped his forehead, and smiled indescribably with a smile on his face, which made his heart tighten.
"The things that are handed in, I will remind the old man Blue Shark to hand over them tomorrow morning, and ask Brother Zhu Ming to instruct the good brothers. Duan Jing took his leave first. ”
Duan Jing decided not to stay any longer, his toes shook, he rose into the air, his figure burst into the air, and when Zhu Ming heard the sound of the former as if he had just boarded the boat, Duan Jing had already left with the boat.
A mutual covert hand, just like that, was completed in a single transaction at the same time.
...
"Captain, what did you talk about just now?"
"I saw that he must have felt that he was no match for the captain, so he used the excuse to escape. ”
"Who says it's not, if you want to say that he can reach the strength of the captain now, then who can accept it?!"
"Looking at his strength, he is by no means as high as the captain, that is, taking advantage of his body. ”
Waiting for Duan Jing's boat to go farther, the team members next to Zhu Ming spoke cautiously, although they didn't know what the two of them talked about, but it would not be wrong to say that he would defend his captain.
"Shut up! No matter how young he is, he's still in charge! Could it be that you're talking behind your back?"
"Yes, Captain. We knew we were wrong. ”
"If this young steward is allowed to grow up, it will be really a trouble in the future, but unfortunately, the good seedlings brought back by the two gang leaders will be wasted. Zhu Ming thought for a moment and walked towards the cabin, "Tomorrow Old Man Lan will come over, do things according to the rules, sort out the list of the remaining things in the warehouse, and hand them over." ”
"Don't worry, captain!" echoed the team members.
In the middle of the deck, even if the boatmen watched the things that originally belonged to them being divided and traded, they could only curse a few words in their hearts, and did not dare to shout, after all, money was just something outside the body, but their lives were all gone on the spot, leaving the green mountains behind, and they did not worry about running out of firewood.
"Boss, what about these fat sheep?" asked one of the team members guarding the boatman.
Even if the second gang leader knew why Duan Jing was abolished, he would never dare to trouble himself, private transactions were a taboo for the big gang leader, and when this celebrity lost his value, the third gang leader would definitely be rewarded vigorously, the more Zhu Ming thought about it, the happier he became.
"Lao Tzu showed mercy today, let them take their luggage, and drove off the boat. But you have to leave me the money!" Zhu Ming's hearty laughter came from the cabin.
...
At this time, the boat swayed lightly, on the way back.
Wang Ke is Yan Shang's personal guard, for fear that his subordinates will not be in line with the rules during the first inspection, so he will arrange camouflage to protect him.
After Duan Jing returned from his inspection, he stared at the two vials in his hand, smiled vigorously, couldn't help but wonder, and asked, "Young Master Jing, I don't know why I'm happy?"
"Uncle Wang, what do you say if a person wants to take a pill made of withered poisonous herbs?"
"Withered poisonous grass, it is rumored that this grass has a wonderful therapeutic effect, often used to fight poison with poison, less can cure the disease and strengthen the body, excessive toxin into the body, damage the body from time to time, once excessive, even if the spirit realm is not alive for five years. You shouldn't have given anyone this kind of elixir?!" Wang Ke looked stunned.
Duan Jing took it slowly, and after telling all the details of the scene on the ship and how he tested Zhu Ming, Wang Ke suddenly realized and said with a smile: "He violated the rules of the big gang leader, and he deserves to die." But you clever ghost, next time you can have a prophet to meet me. ”
"Got it, Uncle Wang. It's my secret hand, and it's going to be fine. ”
