Chapter 205: Hongmen Banquet
Pan Zi listened to Dong Si's words and frowned slightly. He would never have thought that the always cautious Snow Fox could drop his chain at this time because of a subordinate!! Although he didn't believe Dong Si's words, the matter had come to this point, no matter what the reason, they would definitely not come.
Pan Zi saw that Dong Si didn't look like he wanted to embarrass himself, and he was secretly relieved in his heart, he thought that he should go back first to explain the situation to the master, and how to let him decide later.
"Panzi, I see that you are a talent, why don't you come and do it with me, how much does the blind man give you, I Dong Si is definitely three times more than him!! You go back and think about it, and if you figure it out, feel free to let me know. Dong Si saw that Pan Zi was standing still, and he had the intention to win over this notoriously ruthless character, but now that he was alone, there was a shortage of such talents around him. If Pan Zi can be leveraged, for him, at least his life safety will be more guaranteed.
Pan Zi listened to Dong Si's words, turned his head and turned the corners of his mouth with disdain on his face, and scolded secretly in his heart: Who does this old immortal think of me? Do you think that anyone can be bought with material money like him? He was a little suspicious of such a person, Second Master Chu and the blind Xu San, how they had gotten along with him for decades.
"I listened to the words of the fourth master, but there are some things that I can't do, and I have to go back and report to the higher authorities to decide." After speaking, Pan Zi didn't give Dong Si any face, turned around and walked back and forth.
Pan Zi's words are obviously a pun, Dong Si has been in the rivers and lakes for decades, how can there be a reason that he can't hear. After Panzi turned around, his face quickly changed to a gloomy color.
Pan Zi went around in a big circle again, and returned to Chu Tianlu to explain the matter in detail.
Chu Tianlu and Loach listened to Pan Zi's statement, and their faces showed disbelief. They never thought that this incident would be related to Qiu Yu again.
As for why, neither of them could figure it out. Just when Chu Tianlu judged that what Dong Si said was somewhat credible, Lao Huang Gu came over and said a word, which made Chu Tianlu decide to take a risk.
Lao Huanggu said: "With their strength, if it weren't for you, I don't think they would have asked you to cooperate with you." In that case, I don't think they'll do anything to you until they've achieved their goal. ”
"Okay, loach, you and the dumb turtle and the iron snake will stay here with some people, and Panzi and I will take a small number of people and equipment out, and when we get to the destination, we will send someone to pick you up. If no one comes to pick you up before dawn, we're being detained. When the time comes, you will find a way to find us. "For the sake of everything, Chu Tianlu divided the existing number of people into two groups.
"No, it's absolutely impossible. Or I and Panzi go, you and the dumb turtle and they stay. If it was really Leng Meiren who asked someone to invite us to go, she and I would know each other and be able to say a few words.
If they make a ploy to invite you into the urn, then you will bring someone to save us. The odds are much greater. Loach was the first to stand up against Chu Tianlu's idea, he didn't want this young master who treated him like a brother to put himself in danger, and if he wanted to commit it, he would do it himself.
"Big nephew, I think what the little fat man said is right. Xiao Panzi has a certain ability and mind to deal with them, and besides, there can't be no one in command here. "Old Huang Gu obviously doesn't want Chu Tianlu to come out now, after all, the other party's true intentions are still unclear. Who knows if Snow Fox is really as Dong Si said? If there is a case, he is detained, and he will completely let the other party lead the way by the nose.
"Master, don't fight, this is not the time to be righteous, what the old yellow head said is right. Besides, they don't know the details of this side now, if you don't show up, it is estimated that if they really want to do it, it is estimated that they will have to weigh the results in the future. After Pan Zi finished speaking, Chu Tianlu had no choice but to nod and agree.
Loach and Panzi led a group of people along the road they had detoured before.
This time, I saw a bunch of people carrying luggage, and the van and the two pickup trucks behind started to meet them.
When he saw that there was no Chu Tianlu in the team, Dong Si looked at the woods they had just walked out of, intentionally or unintentionally, obviously Dong Si had some guesses in his heart. Otherwise, he would have been in vain all these years.
"The little master is really cautious, not bad.
Since he refuses to show up, he naturally has his own discretion, and I, Dong, am also running errands for others now, and I will not force it. No matter who it is, I have received someone, and I have completed the task, so let's talk about it over there!! ”
Dong Si is a small master on the left and a small master on the right, which shows that he is still angry about Chu Tianlu sitting in the position of chief helmsman.
In fact, if you think about it from his point of view, it will be relieved.
Not long ago, how close he was to that position, he could be said to be half a person with his ass already sitting on it. Who would have thought that he would bite the gold halfway, so he would stir things up and not talk about it, and he made himself flee everywhere like a lost dog.
The night is sultry and hazy. The breeze blows the leaves, and the leaves are silent.
Loach and Panzi have been walking for more than two hours, and when they just left, there were still many people talking and laughing and making some jokes. As time passed, gradually, those people stopped talking, and everyone present suppressed an inexplicable nervousness in their hearts, and time became particularly difficult.
Fortunately, the haunting time did not last long, and the roar of cars could be heard in the distance.
"Little Master!! There are cars coming. When the iron snake heard the sound of the vehicle, he immediately got up and reminded Chu Tianlu that judging from his reaction alone, his attention never left the stone road not far away for a moment.
The brothers who were sitting behind him also showed relaxed smiles to varying degrees, and at this time, needless to say, it must be the loaches they sent to pick up people.
Sure enough, this time there were also three cars, but it was different from the previous one, the front was a soliciting tricycle, behind it was a lorry-pulling agricultural tricycle, and finally it was a liberation truck.
The three cars stopped not far from Chu Tianlu, and from the tricycle at the front, a person with very obvious characteristics jumped down, and his figure was even more fat under the illumination of the headlights!! The man was none other than a loach.
Seeing the loach, Chu Tianlu's heart that he had been carrying finally let go.
The rest of the equipment was loaded into the car and drove to the nearby town.
"Have you seen the autumn rain? What about Panzi? Chu Tianlu found that Pan Zi did not follow, and asked the loach.
"Didn't see it.
That Dong four old dogs
After taking us to the town, he left, and didn't take us to see the cold beauty at all.
I'm afraid you'll be in a hurry, so I'll let Panzi and I go our separate ways. He'll find a place to stay, and I'll go find a car to pick you up. ”
Chu Tianlu was secretly amused in his heart, it was obvious that this idea should have come up with Pan Zi, at this moment, the loach was not red and panting, and it became his own idea, this cheek is really not comparable to ordinary people.
The border town is not very large, and it looks like a few hundred households. Many of the buildings are also built on thatched mud, which is a world away from the small towns on the other side of the border.
From this point of view, it is not without reason that those smugglers choose such a place to transit. There's simply no extra strength in a place like this to care about what you don't cross the border.
When Chu Tianlu and Loach returned to the town, Pan Zi had already found a place to stay, which was a farmhouse.
Old Huang Gu looked at this place with a blank expression, obviously this time was not the same place as the last time he came.
It may be that the price given by Panzi is high, and the owner of this farmhouse even moved out and left the entire yard to Panzi.
Early the next morning, before Chu Tianlu got up, Lao Huanggu came to Chu Tianlu's room to discuss the next matters with him.
Lao Huang Gu didn't care about the cooperation between Chu Tianlu and the foreigners, he only cared about his son, and now he just wanted to find the old guys who lured his son over as soon as possible and get out of his son.
In fact, Chu Tianlu understands Lao Huanggu, and he will naturally fight for his life to maintain the safety of his children.
In the end, Chu Tianlu asked Pan Zi to take people out to check on Lao Huanggu about the gang of tomb robbers from Shaanxi, so that Lao Huanggu would follow him until there was no definite news.
Everyone had breakfast, and the uninvited guests came to the door again.
Dong Si appeared at the gate of the farmhouse behind several foreigners, and even the translator who was in Qingshuitang that day was among them. It seems that these foreigners are really willing to spend money!!
When Chu Tianlu heard the news, he didn't go out to greet them, but waited in the house for them to come in.
Charlie saw Chu Tianlu from afar, and a professional smile instantly appeared on his face, and he kept talking in his mouth.
"Dear friends, you really surprised us by coming here without telling us this time!! Is this what you call the spirit of cooperation? Please don't do this in the future, at least in the process of cooperation, we must respect each other. The interpreter immediately translated Charlie's words.
When the loach heard the translator's words, his face immediately showed anger, and he scolded: "Grandma, which onion are you?" Where is Lao Tzu going to report to you?? Don't pee and take a picture to see what you are!! And you, a traitor lackey, what kind of silver is not easy to earn, you have to earn this money that insults your ancestors? ”
The little translator was so frightened by the loach-like insults that he didn't know how to translate......
"Loaches, don't be rude. They were right, we were not doing it properly. Chu Tianlu saw the loach's appearance of wanting to eat people, and immediately stopped him from breaking out further.
Dong Si, who was standing behind Charlie, listened to Loach's words, his face was blue and white for a while, obviously he thought that Loach's words actually meant that Sang scolded Huai for him.
"Little brother, you and Charlie said that we left early this time because we had other urgent matters to deal with. I don't want to go looking for your tomb alone. Chu Tianlu didn't care whether the other party believed it or not, anyway, he was telling the truth. If you really don't believe it, there's no way around it.
After the little translator translated, Charlie did not express dissatisfaction, but understood their posture. This made Chu Tianlu doubt the true motives of these foreigners.
According to common sense, isn't it time to negotiate again with three chapters of the law or something? For example, if anyone disobeys the rules again, what will happen to the wealth they will receive in the end?
"Dear friend, Charlie said he wanted to invite you to lunch, I wonder what you think?"
Chu Tianlu frowned slightly, thinking that these foreign devils would not also learn from Xiang Yu and want to hold a Hongmen banquet!! But the other party has already come to the door to invite, and if he refuses, he will be a little too reluctant to give the other party, not to mention that the other party has no intention of blaming him for his previous affairs.
The loach muttered behind Chu Tianlu: "Please eat in this broken place, don't you feel too shivering?" None of these foreign devils are good. ”
"Okay, Mr. Charlie, you name a place, we will be there at noon."
