Chapter 44: The Late Night Visitor

At night, the town of Seongsu is quiet and comfortable, except for the rattling of the Seongsu River that passes through the town, which flows day and night. A hazy full moon in the sky was reflected in the water, and the river seemed to flow over the moon. Only three or five places in the town were lit up, and the light of the moon was quiet and soft, and the strife of the day was temporarily calmed down with the onset of night.

Luo Zhigang and Chi Hua were leaning on the railing on the second floor, each holding a wine glass in their hands, looking at the light and discussing in a low voice.

After the Beidou team smashed the Changle gambling house in the afternoon, they rented the entire inn on the side of the Mingtang forces on the other side of the river as a place to stay.

A chaotic sound of footsteps suddenly disrupted the silence of the night, and a man in black holding a torch suddenly rushed out of the darkness and quickly surrounded the door of the inn rented by Luo Zhigang and others.

These people surrounded the door but did not force their way in, and one of them stood at the door and chanted: "Does Captain Luo live here?" Mingtang Qiao Jinliang came to visit. "

"Hall Master Qiao is too polite, don't stand at the door, please go inside."

Qiao Jinliang looked for the direction of his voice, and when he looked up, he saw Luo Zhigang and Chi Hua standing on the railing on the second floor holding wine glasses and waving to him, and hurriedly said: "Just drink in the moonlight, the two captains are really interested, how about letting Qiao add a few snacks?"

"Mingyue Lou is alone and resting, and the wine is sad and turns into lovesick tears!" Chi Hua said in a low voice, "Of course, drinking is interesting when you have more friends, otherwise it will become a stuffy wine, Hall Master Qiao can enjoy his face and drink together again, it is just what he can't ask for, please go upstairs!" "

Teng Teng made a rapid staircase sound, and three people came up from downstairs, but the first one was not Qiao Jinliang, but a northwest man in his forties with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

Qiao Jinliang followed closely half a step behind this person like a personal bodyguard.

There is also a person behind Qiao Jinliang who is carrying a lantern, compared with the Qi Yu Xuan Ang of the previous two, this person looks a little cringe, especially the two high and bulging eyes are particularly eye-catching, the two eyes are red and swollen like small steamed buns, leaving only a small slit in the middle that can barely squint at people, it is Qin Yurou's old acquaintance - Jin Yu.

Qiao Jinliang hurriedly took two steps forward and introduced: "Two captains, this is our Ming Hall's horse hall master!" "

The person who came hurriedly stepped forward and hugged his fist and said: "In Xia Ma Yuanming, the brothers below don't know the famous Beidou team, please bear with me if I am slack." You two can't come and apologize!"

Ma Yuanming ordered Qiao Jinliang and Jin Yu to come forward to apologize, but they were hurriedly stopped by Luo Zhigang, "A little bit of a thin name is not enough to worry about, I can't complain about the brothers below, besides, when I arrived at your place, it should be our brother who took the initiative to visit, but I didn't expect it to work the master of the Ma Hall." "

"Captain Chi is really good at acting, if it weren't for the fact that my hall master was aware of it, Qiao would still be kept in the dark?" Qiao Jinliang answered half-jokingly.

"Let Master Qiao Tang laugh, what he said at noon is not acting, for Mingtang, Pengfei Gang and other hundreds of gangs and big forces that dominate one side, isn't our Beidou adventure team just a small sampan that has no fixed place to live and wanders around." Chi Hua continued to laugh at himself.

A few people chatted for a while, and Mingtang's gang really came up with a banquet with little effort. During the banquet, Ma Yuanming talked eloquently, from anecdotes in the rivers and lakes to Fengyue, but did not mention the purpose of the come, which made Chi Hua secretly admire that Ma Yuanming, who seems to be able to pull up this brilliant horse, is by no means an idle person, and he does have something extraordinary.

After a few glasses of wine, Qiao Jinliang found a reason to leave the table, and when he left, he pulled Jin Yu, who had been standing aside with a lantern, and as soon as the two went to the house, only Luo Zhigang and the three were left.

Ma Yuanming raised his wine glass in his hand, coughed lightly and said: "I have long heard that the Beidou team is chivalrous and righteous in this area, Ma is bothering today, is there something he wants to ask for justice?" "

"After going around in such a big circle, I'm finally getting to the point." Chi Hua smiled secretly in his heart, but he didn't show his face, and said with a straight face: "Master Ma has something to say, and we will not shirk what we can do." "

"Sure enough, it's a refreshing person, I'll do it first as a respect." Ma Yuanming raised his head and drank all the wine in the cup, and then continued: "Do you two know the origin of my Mingtang and the Pengfei Gang?"

Without waiting for Chi Hua and the two to answer, Ma Yuanming continued to take care of himself: "The people in my Ming Hall are all local villagers who have relied on this holy water lake for generations to eat. Zhuang Pengfei and others fled from the city to here, we kindly accepted it, who thought that this person was a wolf and a wolf, and even wanted to plot my entire Shengshui Lake and Shengshui Town, but also Ma was incompetent, and he was defeated several times and was seized half of his ancestor's property by this son, and now even the boat that goes to the lake to fish is half on one side. Ma Yuanming said with a long sigh.

Chi Hua didn't speak, but just shook his head and sighed pretending to cooperate, but secretly said in his heart: "If Zhuang Pengfei is here, he must have said something else." In the same fact, people are always accustomed to say that in their own favor, everyone lives in a Rashomon in their hearts. "

Ma Yuanming continued: "Zhuang Pengfei is still not satisfied after occupying half of Shengshui Town, opening casinos, brothels, and making a lot of money in the fish and meat township, I have the heart to eliminate harm for the people, but the strength is insufficient. After that, he got up and bowed deeply to Luo Zhigang and Chi Hua.

Luo Zhigang hurriedly stretched out his hand to help him, "If you want my Beidou team to uphold justice, please also ask the master of the horse hall to give a famous word." "

"I heard Jin Liang say that the enemies of the Beidou squad are also in the Pengfei Gang, and we will work together to eradicate the Pengfei Gang, and return the surrounding villagers to a clean up, okay?"

Chi Hua sneered in his heart, "This Ma Hall Master is really better than his Deputy Hall Master Qiao, compared with Qiao Jinliang's plan to kill people with a knife, Ma Yuanming gave the Beidou team a big hat of justice and came to kill." "

Luo Zhigang frowned and lowered his head after hearing this, and Chi Hua interjected: "We have naturally heard of the Pengfei Gang's actions, otherwise we wouldn't have smashed their casino this afternoon, but the two of us joined forces, and after the matter is completed, the entire Shengshui Lake and Shengshui Town will naturally be all Mingtang, but we only have a personal vendetta, I'm afraid the gap between them is a bit big, right?" "

Luo Zhigang and Chi Hua have a black face and a white face, and they cooperate seamlessly.

Ma Yuanming laughed when he heard this, "As long as the Beidou team agrees to make a move, the two captains will naturally not suffer in terms of compensation!" With that, he slapped his palms three times in a row.

The two Mingtang gangers brought up a small mahogany box two feet square from downstairs, Ma Yuanming signaled to open the lid of the box, and it was actually full of neatly placed gold bars, shining with an attractive light in the dim light, if Qin Yurou was here, I am afraid that he would have been impatient to pounce on it.

Chi Hua only nodded slightly after seeing it, there was no difference on his face, and he said expressionlessly: "Master Ma seems to have been prepared, but although this yellow and white thing is precious, it is not an easy thing for us evolutionaries, not to mention that my Beidou team naturally does not take these things seriously, if it is compared with the continuous income of the Holy Water Lake in the future...... Chi Hua's words are only half-said.

It is enough for a smart person to talk half of it.

The muscles on Ma Yuanming's face twitched unnaturally, and then solemnly took out an antique small wooden box from his arms, the lid of the box opened, and it was a crystal nucleus flowing with a strange luster inside, "How do the two captains look at this thing?" Ma Yuanming's face was quite complacent.

Chi Hua was also shocked when Ma Yuanming opened the lid of the box, but he was shocked that the effect of this thing had finally spread, and the battles between evolutionaries would probably become more frequent and tragic in the future.

Chi Hua's face immediately returned to normal, and he chuckled: "If this thing is so good, it still seems that the master of the horse hall is indeed sincere, five!" Chi Hua opened a hand and shook it in front of Ma Yuanming.

Ma Yuanming snapped angrily and buckled the lid of the box heavily, "Captain Chi, do you think this is Chinese cabbage?" Do you know how many lives we have to take to kill a mutant animal? If I could have 5 more evolutionaries in Mingtang, would I still be able to tolerate Zhuang Pengfei so arrogantly? Ma Yuanming's series of rhetorical questions suddenly lost his previous composure, and the scene was slightly embarrassing for a while.

Luo Zhigang came out at the right time to round the scene, "Master Ma doesn't have to mind too much, it's too simple for us to think about this thing by ourselves, my Beidou team is running around, and when I'm lucky, it's common to hunt three or five mutant beasts a day." If Mingtang is not easy to come by, then three. I was afraid that Ma Yuanming would not believe it, so I took out two crystal nuclei from my bag, which were bigger than Ma Yuanming's hands.

Ma Yuanming couldn't help but say at a glance, what he regarded as a treasure was easily taken out of two, it seemed that the strength of this Beidou squad was far above the rumors, but he immediately said with a bitter face: "Captain Luo, it's not that Ma is stingy, I'm not afraid that you will laugh at me, Mingtang really can't even take out three of them!" "

Luo Zhigang pretended to hesitate, frowned and didn't speak, Chi Hua simply turned his face away and stopped looking at Ma Yuanming.

Ma Yuanming was secretly angry in his heart, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Captain Luo, I Mingtang will take out two first, and after the matter is completed, I will definitely get the third one, and if the Pengfei Gang has this thing, all the income will go to the Beidou team, how about it?" "

Luo Zhigang's brows stretched suddenly, and he immediately changed to a smiling face: "According to the opinion of the master of the Ma Hall, in fact, our cooperation is not for a few crystal nuclei, even if it is the obligation, my Beidou team will do our best to help." "

Chi Hua almost didn't squirt out a sip of wine on the side, "It seems that this big brother Luo is worthy of being a businessman, and he can't catch up with this thick-skinned and fast face!" "

Seeing that Luo Zhigang was relieved, Ma Yuanming breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, picked up the wine glass again and said: "In order to succeed in cooperation, we have made this glass!" "

"!" Several foxes looked at each other and smiled.

……

Several people were discussing their next move, when a commotion came from downstairs.

Ma Yuanming's face sank, and he said in his heart that his subordinates didn't understand the rules so much. Luo Zhigang heard it, and one of them downstairs was Qin Yurou's voice, so he said to Ma Yuanming with a smile: "Master Ma, let's go down and have a look, and it is just right for you to meet my Beidou and a few others." "

As soon as a few people leaned down from the stairs on the second floor, they saw Jin Yu hiding at the top of the stairs and didn't dare to show up, Qin Yurou stood outside the house with his waist crossed and reprimanded several black-clothed people in Mingtang, "Where did you come from, you dare to stop me, do you know that the entire building is covered by this girl!" Li Xiaofei and Ouyang watched the excitement with their shoulders behind Qin Yurou.

"Yurou, what does your girl's family look like? Isn't it big enough to mess up in the afternoon? Luo Zhigang reprimanded.

Seeing Luo Zhigang and the others going downstairs, Qin Yurou knew that things in the afternoon were in a bad situation, and she wilted down, and Luo Zhigang took the opportunity to introduce a few people to Ma Yuanming.

Ma Yuanming smiled on his face, nodded at everyone, and then nodded and called Jin Yu over, "There are many disturbances today, Ma will leave, I will leave Jin Yu and let him follow Captain Luo temporarily, if there is anything in the past few days, let him pass a word from the middle." "

"This Ma Yuanming, before leaving, he also played a Ming chess move, let Jin Yu stay, saying that it was a word from it, I am afraid that there are many elements of surveillance." Chi Hua couldn't help but shake his head secretly.

As soon as Ma Yuanming walked on the front foot, Jin Yu came to Qin Yurou's side, "Miss Qin, no, I didn't expect to meet again so soon?" What is there to the girl, just command! "

"Oops, isn't this a little goldfish? Didn't your hall master let you follow our Luo team? How dare I command you? "

Jin Yu stood with a smirk, his eyes narrowed even more.

"What's wrong with your eyes, swollen like a goldfish?" Only then did Qin Yurou notice that Jin Yu's eyes were almost open, but she completely forgot that the scars on Jin Yu's face were due to herself in the morning.

Jin Yu blushed, "No, no, accidentally, I fell by myself." "

Qin Yurou smiled and stabbed Xie Xiaodan beside her, Xie Xiaodan understood, and opened his five fingers to brush Jin Yu's eyes.

Jin Yu was so frightened that he was about to bow down as soon as he hugged his head, but was pulled by Qin Yurou, "What are you afraid of?" Do you look like a man?"

As Xie Xiaodan's fingers brushed, Jin Yu only felt a coolness in his eyes, and the redness and swelling on his eyes had quickly dissipated at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.

Before dawn, eight figures took advantage of the cover of night to sneak out of Holy Water Town.
