Chapter 9: The Past
The Himalayas are a homonym for the Sanskrit word "hima alaya", which means "snowy land", and even in Tibetan, it means "the hometown of snow". Moreover, because the geological movement is not yet over, the Himalayas will continue to slowly increase or change.
Because of this, the towns near the Himalayas can occasionally hear an ethereal but piercing sound that looks like an old iron object twisting and colliding, that is, the sound of continental plates squeezing and colliding with each other.
Tibet, at the foot of the Himalayas, an unnamed town.
Zhang Miao, who had just come out of a Tibetan restaurant, smacked her lips, looked around on the left and right, and finally looked at the sky. At this time, the sky has completely darkened, and the street lamps on the street exude a soft and faint light, especially after the sky is completely dark, the temperature has dropped again and again, but Zhang Miao, who is wearing short sleeves and cropped pants, only lasted for a few minutes because of the heat of the body brought by a hot dinner, and began to rub his hands.
Fortunately, for the place where the assassination alliance asked Zhang Miao to pick up things, he had already inquired with the owner of the Tibetan restaurant behind him, an antique shop owned by a middle-aged uncle from Guangdong.
There are two floors, the first floor is a store for trading antiques, and the second floor should be a bedroom, because Zhang Miao went just in time for the boss to close the door, he waited for about an hour and a half, and never saw the boss come out. All the normal entrances and exits are only the front door and the side door, and the house is different from other Tibetan houses, with tiled exterior walls and triangular roofs, and the overall appearance is quite square. But the more such a house, the more difficult it is to steal, and if the owner happens to come back from a trip, there is nowhere to hide.
Zhang Miao once went to a similar antique shop in Nanzhen, which was also two floors, and the owner of that antique shop also lived on the second floor. At that time, Zhang Miao was fortunate enough to go to the second floor, of course, he was not invited to go up, but because the owner of the antique shop owed them a small debt to collect an object that he had done as a "worker", but in the end he was unable to repay the debt, so Zhang Miao went to take the object to pay off the debt.
At that time, when Zhang Miao stepped into the only room on the second floor, he found that there was porcelain all over the floor, and the only place where he could put his feet was a small passage leading to the bed at the door.
At this moment, what Zhang Miao is most afraid of is that something similar will happen again.
"I'm not afraid of being sucked yang energy......"
Zhang Miao rubbed his hands in a muttering voice, then turned around and walked towards the Tibetan restaurant behind him, he was going to order a takeout. He's going to have to plan a few things tonight, and he's going to get that thing out anyway.
Definitely get your hands on it!
South Town, an abandoned factory on the outskirts.
This abandoned factory was originally an ironworks established by a wealthy boss during the Republic of China, but later due to some political reasons, the boss was classified as the evil bourgeoisie of the time and was severely criticized, which finally led to the gradual decline of the ironworks and went bankrupt.
But it was later acquired by Chu Yangge in 1996 and became its power gathering point, and now it has been completely renovated by him with hundreds of millions of funds and turned into a building materials factory, but its dilapidated appearance has been retained, and even the name is called "abandoned factory". In the words of Chu Yange: "This is the birthplace of Lao Tzu's youth!" ”
At this time, it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening, and in the general manager's office on the second floor of the abandoned factory, there were still bright lights shining through the cracks in the door. There are not many furnishings in the general manager's office, except for the bookcases behind the desk and on the left that occupy the entire wall, and a few plants, except for the small glass-topped table and sofa used for reception.
Chu Yangge and Zhang Wen were sitting at the reception table chatting, the table was full of barbecue and beer, and under the table there were some empty beer cans.
Zhang Wen helped his glasses, leaned on the sofa, looked up at the ceiling, and suddenly Zhang Wen seemed to remember something, and asked: "Old Chu, did you say that Zhang Miao has started hard training now?" ”
"Who knows?" Chu Madge smiled and drank the beer that was still half a cup left in the cup, "What's wrong?" Miss your godson? ”
"Think of a! If that kid stays with us any longer, sooner or later something bad will happen! Zhang Wen scolded with a smile, but in an instant, his face became melancholy again, and then he asked with some melancholy: "You say, is it right to send him to that assassination alliance?" It's not that you don't know about Zhang Miao's father, you saved Zhang Miao at that time. ”
What I didn't expect was that Chu Yange, who had always greeted people with a smile, also sank when Zhang Wen mentioned Zhang Miao's father. After a while, Chu Crazy Ge said in a deep voice: "Didn't we send him out just for Zhang Miao's father's business?" And after waiting for another three years, after Wu Yiyue comes out of prison, it will be a matter between the two of them. ”
"Whether it's Xu Hui or Wu Yiyue, or Zhang Miao, we can only do this step......" As he spoke, Chu Yangge opened the canned ring of a can of beer, filled the cups in front of Zhang Wen and himself, and then picked up the wine glass and signaled to Zhang Wen.
"Later, it's up to them."
"yes, it's up to them."
looked at each other and smiled bitterly, the two glasses touched, the wine entered the throat, and in the end, there was only a lamentation.
Ten years ago, South Town.
In the summer of 1998, although Chu Yangge, Zhang Wen, and Xu Hui at that time were only three hairy boys who had just graduated from high school, because of their tacit division of labor and cooperation, they had already developed to the point of competing with one of the most famous underground forces in Nanzhen at that time - "Qianjin Lane"!
Originally, as long as all parties developed secretly, the stable situation of the underground forces in Nanzhen could be maintained, but the so-called one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, not to mention the underworld where interests are paramount.
The underground forces, which had been stable for several months, were finally broken in the hot July!
July 3, 1998.
"Qianjin Lane" was framed by Chu Yangge, and the black boss hidden behind the scenes was arrested, and the hall masters of Qianjin Lane were also either unlucky and also arrested, or they were lucky enough to escape and flee to other places. But there are also some backs, and on the way to escape, they were caught for some other things. In short, the "Qianjin Lane", which once claimed to be the economic lifeline of Nanzhen, collapsed overnight, and the trees fell and scattered!
In the eyes of the people of Nanzhen at that time, even if it was just the theft of tens of thousands of yuan of banknotes hidden under the bed, it was a major event that could force down a family and make people sigh! Now that some people know from the news that the town where they live has such a bad underworld, they are even more panicked for a while, for fear that they will be scratched out from behind when they walk on the street.
But only a month later, at the mouth of Qianjin Lane, the street known as the "Pinjin Grotto" in Nanzhen, there was actually a murder case with a gun!
August 2, 1998, 8.23 p.m.
Although some of the controlled stores were closed for rest because of the arrest of the underworld forces, after a month's buffer, the street of Qianjin Lane was flooded again.
Zhang Yunhao, who has been setting up a barbecue stall at the entrance of Qianjin Lane, has already set up a barbecue grill and set up the only seven or eight tables and chairs. And Chu Yangge, Zhang Wen, and Xu Hui, the three brothers who passed away, were already standing on the side of the road waiting when Zhang Yunhao just came out of the stall, and at this time, there were already many beer cans piled up under the table at their table.
At that time, Chu Yangge and the three of them originally thought that tonight would be another good night, after all, the biggest opponent of "Qianjin Lane" was already in the past, and none of the underground forces in Nanzhen would be their opponents, which should be something worth celebrating.
However, an extremely familiar loud sound made the three of them wake up from their drunken state in an instant!
Gunshot!
In this kind of hard-hitting period, there are still people who dare to use guns!
Who's going to kill whom?!
There was a momentary stillness, as if even the sound had disappeared. In Chu Yangge's eyes, only a picture was reflected that made his hair stand up instantly!
Wu Yiyue! At this moment, he is holding a pistol! And this muzzle was even more aimed at a five-year-old boy two meters away from Chu Yange! And the father of this little boy, Lin Yunhao, was already lying in a pool of blood at this time!
"Xu Hui!"
Before the words fell, Chu Yangge's body rushed like a little boy like an arrow, and Xu Hui took advantage of Wu Yiyue's attention attracted by Chu Yange and rushed towards Wu Yiyue.
And Wu Yiyue didn't have the nervous appearance of touching the gun for the first time, and when she saw Chu Crazy Ge rushing towards the little boy, her right index finger was slightly forced!
The sound of gunfire echoed in the air again!
"Don't!"
"Whew! Whew! Whew! ”
It must have been about half past four in the morning, when people were falling into a deep sleep, and in a room that looked extremely old and dilapidated, a young man sitting at a table under a quilt seemed to have just woken up from a nightmare, and his chest was heaving violently several times.
The young man is no one else, it is precisely because of Zhang Miao, who planned how to complete the pre-task, and inadvertently fell asleep!
Looking at the sky outside the window, which was still a galaxy of night, Zhang Miao took a deep breath of cold air and slowly calmed himself down. Immediately, Zhang Miao got up and came to the side of the bed, which looked like it would collapse at any time, and slowly lay down.
"I'll be back in South Town sooner or later!"
With this thought, Zhang Miao's already drowsy eyes slowly covered his vision, and he continued to recharge his energy in order to be able to implement the plan to complete the pre-task after dawn.
