I clearly remember that when Li Tao was separated from the Beishan Hotel some time ago, he gave me the weight-bearing vest, which I still wear every day. He didn't mention to me the name of Wang Hui on the vest. And I also remember very clearly that he told me at the time that he had come to Red Star Town to investigate me. But I just heard Huang Rong say that it wasn't like that at all, so why did Li Tao lie to me? Huang Rong has been chatting with me under the willow tree until noon, and has been compared with her since she was a child, and she has been half crushed. It didn't matter when I was a child, but when I grew up, I seemed to be in the way of face, and I rarely had the opportunity to get together like this and chat for a while. I have always felt that this girl has a strange personality, sometimes she is quiet and doesn't say a word, and sometimes her crazy personality is really like his father Huang Laoxi. It wasn't until noon that her mother called her from the back window that she came home. I was in no mood to eat alone, so I sat under the willow tree until my mother came back and they brought the cows back. The cattle that rushed there made Song Lao Wu optimistic in advance, estimated the price in advance, and said hello to him in advance, if he wanted to make a move, he would give him cash if he wanted to take it directly.

Jiulai finished calling Xiao Qi, and he has been standing at the gate of the passenger station waiting, compared with Xiao Qi, he is just a gangster who does not enter the stream, Xiao Qi is the real big brother of the county Chu Tian, a cadre under his command, many years ago Jiulai was just a little famous in Hongxing Town by relying on his fist. One day he had just finished drinking outside, and walked home humming a little song shirtlessly, a white van quietly stopped beside him, and two people got out of the car and put him in the car, and a young man in a red shirt was about the same age as himself, and introduced himself and said that his name was Xiao Qi'er. Although the young man in red was kind and pleasant when he talked to him, even though Jiulai was also famous for fighting in Red Star Town at that time. But now that he was driven to the car and sat opposite the young man in red, he didn't resist at all, because he felt the kind of coercion emanating from the young man in red, which was many times stronger than himself, even if he was the Monkey King who had the ability to make trouble in the Heavenly Palace, the coercion exuded by the other party sitting opposite was like Wuzhi Mountain. After Xiao Qi introduced himself, he didn't say anything else, someone next to him handed over a wad of money, Xiao Qi reached out and took the money, and stuffed it into Jiulai's hand. After Jiulai got out of the car, he watched the white van walk away, and then looked at the pile of money in his hand, he had never taken so much money at that time, why did the other party give him money, he was confused, but he just remembered the name of Xiao Qi.

After several years, Chutian's name became more and more famous in the county, and Xiao Qi's name also came to Jiulai's ears, and there were more and more legends about Chutian and Xiao Qi'er, and Jiulai knew that the gap between himself and Xiao Qi'er was getting bigger and bigger, and he was not at the same level at all. But he always remembered that Xiao Qi gave him money at the beginning, and he didn't understand Xiao Qi's original intention of doing that. But he knew that sooner or later, Xiao Qi would come to him. At first, he was still a little scared, he was afraid that Xiao Qi would come to him and ask him to help fight with others. As time went by, Jiulai became more and more relieved, and Xiao Qi would definitely not let him help to fight hard. Because slowly Chutian's power has become the largest force in the county, legend has it that when Chutian gambled with others to grab territory, Xiao Qi lost a hand for Chutian, Jiulai couldn't help but say after hearing about it, if he was at the scene at that time, did he have a kind of cutting off his own hand for the boss, after thinking about it carefully for several days, he finally came to the conclusion that he definitely didn't have the guts, so he was destined to not be a person like Xiao Qi, and he was destined to be only a gangster.

On a cold winter night, the New Year is approaching, and Jiulai is so poor that his pocket is cleaner than his face. He sat on the edge of his kang, wrapped his hands tightly around the torn cotton jacket on his body, and searched carefully to see if he could find a longer cigarette butt on the ground. During the day, when I was outside, others nodded respectfully when they saw me, and I really had to face real life when I returned home. After so many years, just having a name, the other houses have no half a field house and half an acre, and they are messing outside every day, their parents have long cut off their relationship with themselves, and no woman is willing to be with them, the more they think about it, the more sad they become. At this time, the door was pushed open, and a young man in a red down jacket walked in, the man was Xiao Qi, he looked around the room and frowned. Jiulai scratched his scalp and felt a little embarrassed, and he didn't even have hot water to entertain guests. Seventh brother, why did you come to Jiulai to ask. Xiao Qi took off his leather gloves, held them with one hand, and flicked them on the stool handed over by Jiulai, and said while sitting down: Isn't this about to be the New Year? Knowing that you are living in poverty, I want to come and see you to send you some money.

Nine said: Don't tease me, Brother Seven, with your status, I don't even have the qualifications to lift your shoes, why did you come to see me? Seventh brother, I know that I have always been concerned about the last time you gave me money, and you will order everything you want, as long as I can do it, I will go to Daoshan and go to the sea of fire without ambiguity.

Xiao Qi smiled and took out a photo from his pocket and said: I can't use you to go up the knife mountain and go down the sea of fire for me, you come over and help me see the things on this photo, have you seen it. Jiulai leaned his head over to look at the photo, which had two patterns on it, the front and back of an object. That thing looks like a game of Go, the front side looks red, and the other pattern is the reverse side of this game, although the reverse side is not as red as the front, but you can see that the reverse side is a pattern, it should be an animal, but the specific animal is not clear. The whole object looks natural in the photo, the color is oily, it should be a work of art, but the price must be expensive. Jiulai looked at it for a long time, obviously he hadn't seen this thing, and this thing shouldn't appear in this town. Jiulai shook his head and said he hadn't seen it.

Xiao Qi put the photo into his arms, he had long expected that Jiu had never seen it, he took out a stack of money from his pocket, put it on the table of Jiulai's house and said: You can keep this money for some New Year's goods, let's have a New Year! Jiulai hurriedly excused himself and said: Seventh brother, I understand your kindness, but I can't ask for this money, and it will be useless.

Xiao Qi said: You can take the money and spend it, it's not for you, remember that if you see something in the photo, you must tell me. I've got to go, and I'll give you a word of advice before I leave. Don't do too much of the lack of morality, don't rob the students' money anymore, and don't be with people like the puppet army in the future, he won't have good results. After saying that, Xiao Qi pushed the door out, and Jiulai saw that Xiao Qi was missing a hand, but he didn't dare to ask, he watched Xiao Qi get on an off-road vehicle parked outside the gate. Jiulai thinks about the big and small things in Red Star Town, and Xiao Qi knows everything about every move, if the society can be mixed to this extent, then it is called confusion. After that night, every year during the Chinese New Year, Xiao Qi would come to Jiulai's house, and every time he came, he would give some money. Jiulai has always wanted to find an opportunity to repay Xiao Qi, but because he didn't have the opportunity, he was deeply impressed by Xiao Qi, and felt that being a man should live like Xiao Qi and be respected. He breathed a deep sigh of relief, if he hadn't listened to Xiao Qi earlier, he hadn't been so close to the puppet army, maybe he would have been shot today.

Two or three days ago, the old stick looked for nine to help, before and the puppet army knocked on the ground, and called the old stick so many years of godfather, the puppet army has just been political and legal, hindered by the face, nine to call a few people to take a tricycle to my house, but before I did it, I saw the red Go. After listening to my introduction to the origin of the Go, he picked up the Go and looked at it carefully for a long time, with his memory, he felt exactly the same as that night, on the photo that Xiao Qi took was exactly the same, but this time the real thing was in hand, he saw more clearly, the back of the Go carved with a running cheetah, there are white spots on the cheetah, those white dots are the color difference of the red Go itself, this Go is very cleverly carved, the whole object is cold after starting, yes, this should be what the seventh brother is looking for Nine to think. He was afraid that the old stick would not let me go, so he dragged the old stick to the side and whispered to him, Jiulai directly lied to the old stick and said that this Go is a token of Chutian, and I have a token of Chutian on my body, so it must be Chutian's person. The old stick looked at Go and then at me, and left with someone unwillingly, thinking that the person I said to return Go to was Chu Tian.

For about an hour, Xiao Qi's off-road vehicle stopped directly in front of Jiulai. Xiao Qi lowered the window and beckoned Jiu to get in the car. After Jiulai got into the car, Xiao Qiyan closed the window and couldn't wait to ask: Where are the things? Show it to me. Jiulai handed over the red Go that he had been holding in his hand. Xiao Qi took the Go in his hand and looked at it repeatedly for a while, Jiulai just wanted to speak, and wanted to talk about the origin of this Go. Xiao Qi directly stretched out the severed hand to stop it. Don't tell me first, go to the county seat with me, and tell Brother Tian face to face, Xiao Qi put Go in his jacket pocket and turned the front of the car, and increased the accelerator to drive towards the county seat.

Xiao Qi dialed Brother Tian's phone while driving. After the phone was connected, Xiao Qi said directly into the phone: Brother Tian is right, you can be sure that it is indeed that thing, this one is a spotted leopard, what did Brother Tian ask on the other end of the phone? Xiao Qi replied here: I didn't ask for details, the party was in my car. I'll go to your office with him in half an hour, and we'll listen together. After speaking, Xiao Qi hung up the phone.

Inside the car, Jiulai was a little panicked. A big man like Chutian is not something he can see casually, he is thinking about it in his heart, thinking that when he sees Chutian for a while, people will ask and answer by himself, and he must be neither humble nor arrogant, and he must be generous. At the same time, he was also thinking that if he could have some relationship with Chu Tian through this matter, then life would be better in the future.
