Chapter XXXVIII The Apricot Grove Incident II

Lin Yiyan also opened his mouth at this moment, "Not bad! Qiao Gang Leader's usual behavior, you know best! Since I am a witness, if anyone deliberately provokes trouble, he will not give me face! After speaking, Lin Yiyan pointed to a tree two feet away, only to hear a 'bang', and the tree split apart.

When everyone looked at it, they were all shocked in their hearts, such a distance, with a light finger, a tree was torn apart, if it hit a person, how could there be a life. Everyone has Qiao Feng's promise not to pursue it, and Lin Yiyan's deterrence, how can they still have the courage to make waves, and if they dare to take the lead, they will definitely be the first to die.

Although it is not clear where this young master Lin Yiyan Lin Shaoxia came from, this hand is indeed terrifying. As everyone knows, Lin Yiyan is using the Powder Body Bone Crushing Spell here, and the people here don't know that Lin Yiyan's martial arts are masterful!

As a result, the scene instantly quieted down, and there were more than 200 people around, and no one said a word. After waiting for a while, the sky was getting darker, twilight was shrouded, and mist drifted around the apricot grove. Qiao Feng said in his heart, "With Brother Lin's deterrence and my promise, although everyone is temporarily stable, but the atmosphere is so depressing, it is best to divert everyone's attention, just wait for the elders of the law enforcement to come, and the big thing can be decided!" ”

Seeing this, Qiao Feng opened his mouth and announced: "Brothers, I am very happy to have met Brother Lin today. Brother Lin is bold and strong in martial arts, I will introduce you to him today, and we will all be good friends in the future. ”

Lin Yiyan walked up to Qiao Feng and smiled at everyone, "All of you in the Beggar Gang are heroes and heroes, it's an honor to see you today!" Seeing that Lin Yiyan was such a master, and also knew that the beggars were helping everyone, they were secretly proud in their hearts, and their faces eased a lot for a while.

Qiao Feng walked up to the white-bearded and white-haired elder with an inverted tooth in his hand, and said, "This Elder Song is the elder respected by everyone in this gang, and when he was in the rivers and lakes, you and I had not yet been born. Lin Yiyan hugged his fist and said, "Long up!" Long admiration! Elder Song didn't dare to take it big and returned the salute.

Qiao Feng introduced Lin Yiyan to the short and fat old man with the steel rod in his hand, and said, "This Elder Xi is a master of this gang. More than 10 years ago, I used to ask him for martial arts lessons. Elder Xi and I can be said to be half teacher and half friend, and the affection is very deep. Lin Yiyan smiled, "I see! Elder Shicai Xi fights with the turmoil, which is also a bit good! ”

Elder Xi was upright and ashamed: "Don't dare to be!" Lin Shaoxia's martial arts are beyond the reach of the dust! ”

Qiao Feng introduced Elder Chen and Elder Wu again, and at this time, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, and there were many people running in the northeast corner, and the sound was noisy. Some asked how the gang leader was, some asked where the traitor was, and some were indignant when they were imprisoned. It was the elders of the meritorious service, the elders of law enforcement, the helmsmen of the rudders of great benevolence, great courage, great gifts, and great faith, who led a large number of people to help them all at one time. Each man has a myriad of words to say. But in front of the gang leader, no one dared to speak arbitrarily.

Qiao Feng asked everyone to sit down according to their positions. said, "Our beggar gang can afford to be looked down upon by friends on the rivers and lakes, and it has been known as the largest gang in the martial arts for more than 100 years." Since there are many people, there are many people. It's inevitable that everyone's ideas can't be the same. Just explain it and discuss it carefully, everyone is still a good brother who loves each other, and everyone doesn't have to take it too seriously for a momentary strife. ”

When everyone heard this, Qiao Feng was really benevolent and righteous, kept his promises, and felt more at ease. At this time, an old beggar with a sallow face sitting on the right side of Qiao Feng stood up. said, "May I ask the four elders Song Xi, Chen and Wu, what do you mean by ordering someone to lock us up in a small boat in Taihu Lake?" "It is Bai Shijing, he is an elder of law enforcement, and he has always been iron-faced and selfless.

Elder Song was the oldest, and his old face turned red and said, "This ...... This one...... Well...... We are good brothers who have shared hardships and lives and deaths for many years, and naturally there is no malice...... White...... Bai Law Enforcement looked at my old brother's face, so he didn't have to mind. ”

Bai Shijing said coldly, "Elder Song said that there is no malicious intent. This is not the case. Elder Chuangong and I were imprisoned in three boats in the middle of the Taihu Lake, and the boats were piled with firewood, grass and sulfur. He said that if we wanted to escape, we would immediately set fire to the ship. Elder Song, isn't this malicious? ”

Elder Song was speechless. Full of embarrassment. Bai Shijing pointed to a man and said sharply, "You tricked us into getting on the boat." It is said that it is a call of the Lord. What is the crime of falsely spreading the orders of the gang leader? The man trembled with fear. He said in a trembling voice, "How can a disciple dare to do such a thing as a deceitful master?" It's all ...... It's all ......," he said, his eyes fixed on Quan Guanqing.

Bai Shijing said, "The master of the whole helm ordered you to fake the order of the gang leader and deceive me into getting on the ship, did you know that this order was fake at the time?" The man's face was completely bloodless, and he didn't dare to make a sound. Bai Shijing sneered, "Li Chunlai, you have always been a tough guy who dares to act, haven't you?" The eldest husband has the courage to do things, doesn't he have the courage to agree? ”

Li Chunlai's face showed a strong color, his chest straightened, and he said loudly, "Elder Bai is right. I, Li Chunlai, did something wrong, whether I killed or chopped, let it be punished, the surname Li frowned, and he was not a good man. When I conveyed to you the command of the helper, I knew that it was false. ”

Bai Shijing said, "Okay, since you admit to falsely passing on the gang leader's orders, is there a reason?" Li Chunlai glanced at Quan Guanqing, who was kneeling on the ground, and then at Qiao Feng, and said loudly, "The subordinates violated the gang rules and deserved to die, and the reason for this is not for the subordinates to dare to say." After speaking, he stabbed the knife into his heart, Lin Yiyan's eyes were sharp, and he flicked his fingers and flicked his knife away.

Lin Yiyan said, "Since you are not afraid of death, why are you afraid to tell the truth? Since Gang Leader Qiao said that you should be light, and you are not the mastermind, why do you want to die? Li Chunlai said loudly, "I believe the words of the master of the helm, you ask him!" He was saved by Lin Yiyan this time, and he didn't want to die again. The two elders of Gong Chuan and Law Enforcement looked at Quan Guanqing, Qiao Feng walked in front of Quan Guanqing, stretched out his hand and patted it, Quan Guanqing said: "The matter has come to this, there is nothing that cannot be said, four elders, let's talk about it." ”

Elder Wu said, "Gang Leader Qiao, we have discussed with all of us to abolish your position as Gang Leader. In this major event, the four elders of Song Xi, Chen and Wu were all involved. We were afraid that the two elders would not allow it, so we tried to imprison them. This is for the sake of the great cause of the gang, and it has to take a risk. Today's momentum is unfavorable, and you have the upper hand, and we will be at your disposal. Wu Changfeng has been in the beggar gang for 30 years, and everyone knows that I am not a villain who is greedy for life and afraid of death. As he spoke, he threw the ghost head knife far away, clasped his arms in front of his chest, and looked like he was not afraid of heaven and earth.

Lin Yiyan sneered and said, "Elder Wu is not deceiving himself, as far as I know, doesn't the abolition of the leader of the Beggar Gang need to convene a meeting of the Beggar Gang with the consent of all the elders?" You imprisoned the two elders of Gong Gong and Law Enforcement, and discussed in private, which ancestral rule did this conform? ”

When everyone heard this, they all felt that it made sense, yes, what a big deal to abolish the gang leader, without going through the beggar gang meeting, this is no different from committing chaos, everyone wanted to understand this verse, and their hearts were ashamed. The four elders looked hot and speechless.

At this time, Bai Shijing said loudly: "Brothers, Qiao Gang Leader succeeded the previous generation of Wang Gang Leader as the leader of the gang, not by trickery, but by any improper means to get this position. Back then, the Wang gang leader tried his three major problems and ordered him to make seven major contributions to the gang, so he taught him with a dog stick. That year, the Taishan Conference, the gang was besieged, the situation was very dangerous, all thanks to the Qiao gang leader created nine strong enemies, the beggar gang turned the corner, many brothers here are seen with their own eyes. In the past eight years, the reputation of the gang has grown, and everyone knows that it is the credit of the Qiao gang leader. Qiao Gang Master treats people benevolently and fairly, and we can't support it yet, why is someone who is blinded by lard and will actually rebel? Quan Guanqing, you say it in public! ”

Quan Guanqing said loudly, "Although the behavior of a few of us and the others does not conform to the rules of the ancestors, what they do is for the sake of the foundation of the beggars!" When Qiao Feng heard this, he asked with a serious face, "You tell me carefully, why am I, Qiao Feng, sorry for my brothers, you want to plot against me?" ”

Quan Guanqing said aloud with a hideous face: "I'm sorry for the big things of the brothers, although you haven't done it yet, you will do it soon." Bai Shijing said sharply, "Nonsense! Joe helps the master to deal with people and is above board, he has never done anything bad before, and he will not do it in the future. With all your nonsense, you have incited people with the intention of betraying their master. You have already violated the first rule of the gang rule, law enforcement disciples, and tied up the four elders and Quan Guan. ”

The disciples under him who enforced the law took the cow tendon and went to tie Wu Changfeng first. Wu Changfeng stood with a smile and did not resist. Following the second elder Song Xi, he also threw down his blade and tied it with his backhand. Elder Chen sighed, "Coward, if you go up together, you may not be afraid of Qiao Feng!" ”

Lin Yiyan suddenly opened his mouth and said with a smile, "A few people have made trouble, since I have seen it, I naturally will not stand idly by, you can't help but think too highly of yourself!" As soon as Elder Chen heard this, his expression fell, if Qiao Feng and Lin Yiyan joined forces, they would indeed be invincible.

Bai Shijing tied Quan Guanqing and the four elders together, and said loudly, "You better cut yourself off, I still treat you as my good brothers in the beggar gang!" ”

The four elders said, "We rebelled against you, did not conform to the rules of our ancestors, violated the rules of the gang, and were willing to be dealt with by the rules of the gang. But we are against you for a reason, full helmsman, you are most familiar with, you come! ”

Qiao Feng opened his mouth and said, "Quan Guanqing, say it!" Quan Guan Qing saw that the elders of the law enforcement had arrived, and there were masters like Qiao Feng and Lin Yiyan, and there was no chance of winning today, but he was unwilling, so he said loudly, "Deputy Gang Leader Ma was harmed, I believe it was at Qiao Feng's instigation." ”
