Heavily guarded
All the guests outside the door saw this bloody scene, and they all avoided the sides of the road, sighed, and whispered to themselves.
The two strong men carried the man covered in blood and walked into the distance, and the blood flowed down the man's feet to the ground, forming two red blood stains on the blue brick ground, like two creeping and winding pythons.
The air was filled with the pungent smell of blood, and guests covered their noses.
Zhu Wanxin, who was handing out business cards in the crowd before, looked at the bloody man who only had air out but no air in, and tentatively asked the strong man holding the paper bag: "Big brother, isn't it the sixth master's birthday banquet today?" This...... What's going on? ”
The strong man replied, "The annual report comes first, and the birthday banquet comes later." This kid is the main thing in Shanxi stalls, and he broke the rules of the sixth master behind his back, and the sixth master read that he has followed him for many years, and today he happens to have a birthday, so he is killed! ”
The so-called circumvention of a life, just if you don't kill him on the spot, in the current situation of the bloody person, it seems that he will not live for two hours!
All the guests stopped talking, and stood by the side of the road in horror, watching the bloodied master.
My heart was suddenly confused, it seems that the annual report has begun, the sixth master is so ruthless to his old subordinates for many years, once it is found that Gao Moli is fake, the consequences will definitely be more serious!
Even though Gao Moli is extraordinary, he is still a mortal after all, and it is difficult for him to withstand the attack of real knives.
We have to find a way to get in quickly, and preferably stop this annual report – if it's still too late!
Hei Niu guessed my thoughts, glanced at me, moved a few steps into the crowd next to him, and shouted at the top of his throat: "The sixth master is very happy to punish the traitor, we are all friends of the sixth master, come to celebrate the sixth master's birthday, so the pestle is not suitable outside the gate, why not go in and see the grand occasion of the sixth master's annual report, and open your eyes!" ”
Black Bull's words were puns, one was to imply that the sixth master refused to be outside the door, and the other was to encourage everyone to go in and watch the excitement!
The merchants in these industries are all characters with heads and faces, and they are rarely turned away, and moreover, snooping is a breeding thing that will breed in everyone's heart, they have long wanted to spy on the legendary annual report scene, and now they are greeted by the black bull, and sure enough, the responders are like clouds, and they are shouting to go in as an audience and look at the annual report scene.
There was a commotion outside the gate, and after a minute or two, the old vermilion lacquer gate was opened again, the difference was that this time it was not only a crack opened, but a wide open!
Four strong men carried two large rolls of red carpet and spread them from the door to the courtyard.
Miao Yiding, the housekeeper of the sixth master, walked out quickly, stood at the door, bowed to everyone, and said with a smile: "Treat all the distinguished guests slowly, the sixth master has invited you to move to Cuihuaxuan and participate in the annual report with the sixth master." ”
After everyone heard this, they were not polite, and rushed in and went straight to Cuihuaxuan in the backyard.
The mansion of the sixth master has several courtyards, the eaves of the house are warped, the beast is prone to lie down, the pavilions and pavilions in the courtyard, the rockery fish pond are all available, and the scenery of a unique garden.
If it weren't for the flashing red cameras around and the power grid several feet high on the courtyard wall, it would have been easy to give the illusion of shuttling through that palace.
Cuihuaxuan is in the third courtyard, is a two-storey wooden pavilion, the red pillar is towering, the eaves corner is flying clouds, the lights in the building are bright, a prosperous scene.
The two carved and hollow main doors of Cuihuaxuan were open, and Miao Yiding, who was wearing a long horse coat, stood by the door, and invited the guests to enter with a smile. There are also a few housekeepers next to the door, who are responsible for receiving gift boxes brought by guests.
The black bull and I avoided the gift-receiving family and followed the commotion into the hall.
There are nine round tables covered with bright yellow tablecloths in Cuihua Xuan, and there are nine pear flower chairs with bright yellow cushions around each round table, and the tableware on the table is all in the royal style of Qingyi water carving dragon and phoenix. Bluestone floors, vermilion lacquer columns, bright yellow tables and chairs...... This scene is like a holiday gathering of the royal family.
In the depths of the hall is a red-painted wooden platform, more than a foot high, which was originally supposed to be a theater stage, but now it is used as a venue for annual presentations. The sixth master is located on the right side of the stage, he is wearing a short horse coat and sitting on a Taishi chair, next to a three-legged round table, on which there is a tea and a gold tray, the gold tray is placed with red and black bamboo sticks, which should be used to "reward red and punish black".
Opposite the sixth master, there were several rows of heads of various stalls, all of them holding brown paper bags in their hands, looking at the number of people who were about the same as on the street, it seemed that the annual report should not be long in coming.
We glanced up at the second floor, where the carved and hollowed-out windows were all half-closed, and dozens of black holes peeking out of the cracks in the windows, facing the hall on the first floor. You don't have to think about it to know that those black holes should be all shooting ports!
The black bull carried me on the shoulder and whispered, "Damn, it's better not to come hard for a while, or I'll be shot into a hornet's nest in minutes!" ”
I answered and replied: "When the time comes, let's find Gao Moli first!" ”
The sixth master stood up from the Taishi chair, arched his hand to the audience, and said unhurriedly with a smile: "Everyone give face, come to participate in the old man's birthday banquet, the old man is very grateful, and please don't be polite, sit down at will." I still have some family affairs that I haven't dealt with, and I'll compensate you later! ”
Although the sixth master asked everyone to sit at will, no one dared to sit at the big round table near the stage at the front. After the guests' entourage gave gifts, they were all taken to the side hall for dinner, and the remaining dozens of hosts and guests looked at each other, and then sat down at the round table one after another.
In order not to attract the attention of the sixth master, Hei Niu and I deliberately chose a side seat to sit down. From the crowd in charge of the stall, Gao Moli searched for Gao Moli's figure.
As expected, Gao Moli was still in the crowd, he stood at the end of the line, the wooden box containing the copper chalcedony sword was not placed, and he was holding a brown paper bag in his hand, at first glance, it was no different from the other principals.
I guessed his intentions from where he was standing, he wanted to wait for all the principals to be checked and all of them stepped down before he started, his target should be the sixth master himself!
However, the entire stage is covered by the shooting port on the second floor, even if Gao Moli holds the sixth master hostage, what are his chances of winning?
Gao Moli had a calm expression, and his eyes never glanced down the stage.
Hei Niu took the opportunity of scratching his head, turned his head and whispered to me: "Old Su, we have to find a way to send a signal to the little brother, so that he knows that we are here to support him, and it will be good to act in a while." ”
I speculated in my heart: Now our every move is under the surveillance of the other party, if we move too much, we will definitely attract attention, and then not only expose ourselves, but also affect Gao Moli. However, Black Bull's words are not unreasonable, we have to let Gao Moli know about our existence.
There was no good plan for a while, so I scolded anxiously in my heart: "Gao Moli, you should take a look here!" ”
Just thinking about it, I saw that Gao Moli seemed to sense it, and actually looked sideways in the direction where we were, and when he saw it, he immediately locked his eyes on us.
In the distance, I saw him frown.
