Chapter 34: The Yuan Gate
I only felt pain all over my body, especially my elbows and knees. But I didn't have time to deal with it right now, so I struggled to my feet and immediately ran towards the outside of the tunnel. The subway had a flyover before and I could escape from there.
They obviously didn't dare to take such a risk, after all, they were chasers, and I was running for my life, and I heard the subway slowly stopping, and the driver was indeed controlled. At this time, while I was running away, I took out my mobile phone to call Cao Da, I didn't expect that it would be answered in an instant, and when Cao Da's voice sounded, I felt a little more stable.
"Jiang Cheng, I've been waiting for your call, is there a problem?" Cao Da asked.
I said quickly: "Senior brother, as you expected, there are several people chasing and killing me, and this mission is also fake, what should I do now?" ”
Cao Da said without thinking: "Call Zhang Bayuan for help, it is impossible for Sister Yan to tell him the secret." Zhang Bayuan doesn't know anything, and he will definitely come to save you immediately. And in this way, Sister Yan will trust you, because if you really have a ghost in your heart, how can you return to the Bagua Hall. We're going to pretend to be confused, to make her believe it completely. ”
I hurriedly said okay, hung up the call and called Zhang Bayuan, it was a while before he answered, and he fed him, so I hurriedly said: "Brother Bayuan, I have an accident, this mission is fake, and many people want to assassinate me just now." Come and save me, I just jumped off the subway and was running towards the flyover. ”
"And this kind of thing? It must be Dongfang Guang's miscellaneous ...... that made the ghost," Zhang Bayuan said angrily, "You wait, I'll call the brothers to help you, promise to arrive soon, you take care of yourself first." I checked all the subway station platforms with flyovers and you ran away as fast as you could. ”
"It's okay, they can't catch up."
I looked back at the people and saw that they were still some distance away. Now I'm the one who escaped, so naturally I tried my best to escape, and the distance was getting bigger and bigger.
I was very worried all the way, afraid that the subway in front of me would come and hit me, but luckily, the distance between the stations was not too far, I quickly ran to the previous station, look at the number plate, the subway still has a minute to come.
I was exhausted and out of breath by this time, but a minute was enough time for them to chase after me. I could only continue to run outside the subway station, and as soon as I ran to the door, I saw Zhang Bayuan leading people to drive two vans over, he greeted me, and I quickly climbed into the car.
I leaned back on the seat and gasped, Zhang Bayuan scolded and said: "Grandma, seeing that our business is good now, we will play this method, Dongfang Guang's group of brutes are really disgusting." ”
I asked breathlessly, "Brother Bayuan, why did you come so quickly?" ”
"Recently, there have been a lot of tasks, most of the brothers are doing tasks in the city, and now it's late and there is no car, so I'll be able to come quickly." He explained.
I nodded, leaned back on the chair to rest, Zhang Bayuan scolded all the way, and called Sister Yan. He said that it would be bad to let the brothers go back for now, in case they ran into a fake mission like me.
The quiet suburban village suddenly became lively that night, and the people in the gossip hall rushed back one after another, and after hearing what I had said, everyone was so angry that they couldn't do it, and now people already think that Dongfang Guang is doing ghosts.
After a while, Sister Yan also took Jiang Xue to the ancestral hall, and when she saw her coming, everyone was quiet. Sister Yan first asked me if I was okay with concern, and I pretended to be very excited and said, "I almost died, but fortunately, Brother Bayuan is not far from me." ”
"Dongfang Guang, these brutes ......" Sister Yan slapped her thigh fiercely and said in a deep voice, "Everyone should be careful when doing tasks recently, I will go to communicate with Dongfang Guang's senior management." ”
Zhang Bayuan said impatiently: "What are you communicating, I'll take someone to kill them now." Damn, dare to play with this kind of means, where is the work ethic? ”
Sister Yan waved her hand and said don't be impulsive yet, tomorrow Old Man Luo will come to collect money, now is not the time to make trouble. As soon as they heard about Mr. Luo, people didn't dare to make a fuss, and they all said that they would go back to sleep and continue to do things tomorrow.
Jiang Xue glanced at me, her eyes were full of worry, I smiled and waved my hand to say that I was fine, and she left with confidence. There were only a few people left in the ancestral hall, Zhang Bayuan and I sighed and sat on the bench, and I asked curiously: "Brother Bayuan, who is Old Man Luo?" Last time, I heard Sister Yan say that she had dinner and negotiated with the Oriental Light Club at his scene, I think this old man Luo ...... It seems to be a large portion. ”
"Of course that's a lot of money......," Zhang Bayuan explained to me, "You're from a mountain village, and you don't know much about the situation of this Taoist priest." Since there is the Bagua Hall and the Oriental Light Club, there must be other Taoist organizations. This old man Luo is the spokesperson of Yuanmen in Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai, all of which are under the control of Yuanmen, and the organizations in these places have to pay money every month, and Yuanmen plays the role of a big man. ”
I was surprised: "With such a huge organization, isn't the Taoist priest in the Yuanmen very powerful?" ”
He said solemnly: "It must be powerful, in addition to catching ghosts in the Yuanmen business, there are also fortune telling, feng shui, naming, burial, etc., anyway, there are many Taoist priests in it, and their skills are also huge, but their fortune telling is fake, so those Taoist priests will also cheat, that is, learn how to deceive guests to pay money, not we can compare with half-assers." They also have a marketing department, a personnel department, and so on, which makes it look like professional management. ”
I was speechless, this Yuanmen is really amazing. Compared to it, not to mention the Bagua Hall, even the Oriental Light Club looks very earthy.
Zhang Bayuan was so surprised to see me, he couldn't help but smile: "What, I want to join Yuanmen?" That's not good, any Taoist priest in Yuanmen can accept it, but the problem is that it costs 100,000 yuan for apprenticeship, can you get it? There is another way, that is, every month when they collect money, they will pick a good one from various forces, but your ability is too bad to choose, so you can only pay money. ”
I shook my head and said I couldn't take it out, Zhang Bayuan waved his hand and said don't think too much, let me go back to sleep first.
I went back to a small room arranged by the Bagua Hall for me and Cao Da, took out my mobile phone to keep Cao Da safe, and told him what happened after I came back.
After Cao Da heard this, he said softly: "As long as you are safe, it is estimated that Sister Yan will not be suspicious." In addition, tomorrow Old Man Luo will come over, if there is something to tell you about the black wooden comb, you can tell me. If not...... That's it. ”
I hummed, and then complained that I was so unlucky, and I had so many things to do in joining the Bagua Hall, and I didn't know what secrets were hidden inside.
Cao Da was silent for a while, and then suddenly said, "Jiang Cheng, if one day...... What do you do when you find out that I am not the one you know, and that it is dangerous to follow me? ”
I laughed and said, "Isn't it dangerous now?" ”
"That's right."
He laughed and hung up. I lay down in bed and tossed and turned for a while before falling asleep, and when I woke up the next day, I saw that there were many people standing in the village outside.
I came out to take a look and asked a member of the Bagua Hall what he was doing, and he said that Yuanmen was picking people.
I thought it was interesting, and I wanted to see which capable Taoist priest would be picked up by Yuanmen, so I looked at the center of the crowd.
There was an open space there, and several people from the gossip hall were standing respectfully in front of an old man.
The old man sat on a mahogany chair, with an amiable appearance, wearing a suit, and looking quite formal. Next to the old man was a young man, he was dressed in black, holding a big black umbrella, his face was pale, and he was a little similar to Jiang Xue's dress.
Suddenly, the young man turned to me and whispered a few words to the old man. I was wondering when the old man beckoned me to come over.
People all looked at me, confused, and began to whisper.
My heart twitched, and I couldn't help but worry. This old man is looking for me, could it be because of that black wooden comb?
I walked up to the old man, and a member of the Bagua Hall whispered in my ear that this was Old Man Luo, and I quickly bowed and said, "Hello Old Man Luo." ”
He nodded calmly and smiled: "The children next to me have been with me for many years, and they have never been afraid of anyone. And when he saw you just now, he said that you had an aura that scared him, which was really funny. Could it be ...... What strange things have you experienced? ”
Sure enough, I want to talk about the black wooden comb!
What to do...... If this situation is discovered, it will be fatal!
