Section 19: Mahogany nails
Because they are in the same city, there is not much difference between the urban villages in the South Ring Road and the North Ring Road, and it will not be as obvious as the houses in the Northeast and the houses in the south of the Yangtze River, and the only difference is that the urban villages in the South Ring Road are more dilapidated than the urban villages in the North Ring Road. /./
Walking into Tofu West Village, I turned a few more streets and stopped in front of a small three-story building.
Lao Qi asked the little brothers to guard the door, and then led the two of us to the third floor.
This small building is very dilapidated, red brick wall, no whitewash, belongs to the old-fashioned building, only one side, there is no double-sided structure like when living in 302, the area is not large, it is a four-pack three-structure structure.
To explain a little here, the fourth is the width, which is as wide as four houses, and the third is the length, which is the length of three houses, that is to say, each floor of the three-story building is four rooms long, one is wide, and the other two rooms are the courtyard.
Strangers passing by here, they would not have thought that the headquarters of Nanlian was here, but Lao Qi said that this was the foundation of Nanlian.
But I don't know if what he said is true or not.
After going to the third floor, I found that there was only one iron door here, which looked not strong, and after Lao Qi knocked on it, a sentence came out from inside: one, two, three, four, five.
Lao Qi replied outside: Go up the mountain to fight tigers.
Then the door opened with a "clang", and a little brother with a ponytail poked out of it and said, "Seventh brother, several big brothers have been waiting for you for a long time, come in quickly." ”
In addition to the two younger brothers at the door, there is a table of eight immortals in the center.
There were eight old-fashioned chairs on the side of the table of the Eight Immortals, five of which were already occupied, and each of them had a paper-like paper in front of him.
I estimate that the position where these people sit is the same as the way people sit at the banquet, that is, the way of going up and down the north and going south, up and down the east and west, no matter what the others are, the one sitting in the north must be a person of relatively senior generation, in other words, the one sitting in the north is the first brother of Nanlian, that is, Jiang Na is blind and strong.
The first brother of Nanlian is about forty years old, wearing a pair of sunglasses, unable to see his expression clearly, and having a haircut like Guo Degang, but he does not have the sense of majesty of the eldest brother in the movie, and even a little obscene.
The other four should be the second, third, fourth, and fifth, and each of them wore a horse's tail to add some joy to the tense atmosphere.
It feels like being in a barbershop, and the owner is discussing with a few hair salon boys how to develop a hair salon.
On the north wall, that is, behind the blind strong, there is an incense case.
Two people were enshrined before the incense case: Guan Erye on the left, and Song Gongming, the god of wealth on the right.
Lao Qi said to the people sitting at the Eight Immortals table: "Let the eldest brothers wait for a long time, our brothers are here." ”
The second, third, fourth, and fifth children didn't speak, and Blind Qiang got up from his seat, came to us and said, "It's good to come, let's also be regarded as the third to invite Zhuge Liang, and today I finally invited it." ”
Neither Ye Zixuan nor I spoke.
I don't know what Ye Zixuan is thinking at this time, but my mind is blank, I don't know what to say, although I am also a person who has seen a big scene, but I am a local chicken, how can I not become a phoenix, I still keep playing a small drum in my heart, and my palms are beginning to sweat.
Blind Qiang then looked at Ye Zixuan and said: "A table of talents, sure enough, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, that night I heard the eighth child say, you beat him, I thought in my heart, the people who dare to move our Nanlian must not be simple; Then I heard that you did Wang Kui's dog day, which can be regarded as avenging the sixth child, plus the coffin promotion and fortune position in the commercial street, you also did a good job, venting the landlord of the donkey day, so that he would not cooperate with us Nanlian - so I have always wanted to invite you two brothers to work with us. ”
Ye Zixuan smiled faintly: "We just did what we had to do." ”
After hearing this, Blind Qiang also smiled and said: "In this world, there is nothing to do and not to do, only to do and not to do, whatever is beneficial to our Nanlian gang will be done, and if it is unfavorable, you will join our Nanlian today, and you will not treat the two of you badly, and you will be brothers in the future. I also believe that with the help of our platform, we will be able to achieve great things, and the positions of the sixth and eighth will be chosen by the two of you. ”
Ye Zixuan replied: "It doesn't matter who does it. ”
Blind Qiang said: "Okay, that's it." ”
Then let the two of us sit at the table of the Eight Immortals.
I sat in the sixth position, and Ye Zixuan sat in the eighth position.
I didn't dare to sit at first, but when I saw Ye Zixuan sitting, I sat there too.
I was a little scared, but my mind was still clear, and I suddenly felt that this was too simple.
Although I have never worshiped my brothers, and I don't want to form a righteous relationship with Nanlian, but since Nanlian wants us to join, at least we have to go through the motions or something, last time Lao Qi said let's worship Guan Gong, but now we have done nothing, not even a cup of tea. Is the threshold of Nanlian too low, or is it not taking us to heart at all?
Blind Qiang said at this time: "I'm really happy that the two of you can come, but we still have a one-month probationary period here, so everything is simple today, and the two brothers forgive me." ”
After he finished speaking, he asked the second, third, fourth, and fifth: "Don't sit still, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”
"The person chosen by the eldest brother, our brother has no opinion, as long as the eldest brother feels good, it is good." The four said.
Blind Qiang said: "Okay, that's it." ”
Then he took out two business cards, filled in his name on them, and handed them to me and Ye Zixuan respectively.
We received it, only to see that it was written: Nancheng United Business Company, Manager of the Sixth Business Department: Blowing Water Dragon.
And Ye Zixuan's one is the manager of the eighth business department, four-eyed.
The blowing water dragon and the four-eyed Xuan were just filled in, and when I saw this, I was secretly taken aback, this Nanlian is quite cowardly on the surface, but the intelligence system is still quite developed, and I have mastered the characteristics of Ye Zixuan.
Blind Qiang continued: "The sixth child is not lucky to die young, and the eighth child is also sick in bed, so the business of the two of them is temporarily managed by the seventh child, so the seventh is also very busy, so I hope the two of you can help each other." ”
Next, Blind Qiang gave a brief introduction, and I learned that this Nancheng United Business Company has a total of less than 200 employees, and the standard configuration is eight managers, so that each manager only has twenty-five staff members.
This is really not the same level as Jinfeng at all, if Nanlian goes to find trouble with Jinfeng, it is completely an egg hitting a stone.
But although I and Ye Zixuan have the name of managers, but there is no manager, that is to say, the fifty staff in the hands of Lao Qi who should have given me and Ye Zixuan are still controlled by Lao Qi, and the blind force means that let's familiarize ourselves with the business first, and if necessary, we can find Lao Qi to borrow someone. In addition, during the probationary period of one month, I hope that the two of us can completely drive Zhang Mazi from Xindong back to the territory of the Xindong Gang ten miles east of the Chenghuang Temple.
I didn't dare to speak more, and waited for Ye Lixuan to express his position.
Ye Zixuan nodded.
Blind Qiang couldn't help laughing and said: "Okay, our Nanlian really didn't see the wrong person, and I also heard that you also know a lot about Jinfeng's human skin box, so I want to ask by the way, last time Lao Ba came back to a few of us and told us that I learned from your mouth where Jinfeng hid the human skin box, and I wanted to go and see, so we agreed that he took a few brothers with him - fortunately, he was the only one who took his brothers, and you should also know the later situation, right?" ”
"We don't know much about that human skin box, except that it can't be opened casually, otherwise it will become a faceless person." I took a deep breath and replied.
"Okay, I know, I've finished what I should say, that's all for today, our brothers still have some work reports to continue to study, if you two brothers have something, you can leave first, I hope you join, we will unify the four gangs in the Southern Union!"
After saying goodbye to them, Ye Zixuan and I left Tofu West Village and walked back.
I said, "Since he wants to ask us to be the eldest brothers, why doesn't he give us a few younger brothers?" He doesn't trust us at all. ”
Ye Zixuan smiled faintly: "He didn't trust us in the first place, in fact, he should be vigilant, because we are close to the police." ”
"In that case, why should we do it?"
"We're just like the eights, we're going to be discarded at any moment. So there is no ritual at all - it is okay not to worship, but what if it is? Ye Zixuan said: "The purpose of my visit to Nanlian this time is to find out the master behind Nanlian." ”
"If it is said that the use of the snail seal to control the blood frog was done by the master behind the Southern Union, but why didn't they get angry just now? Could it be that this blood frog incident has nothing to do with them? ”
"Who wouldn't be able to act?" Ye Zixuan said lightly.
"I just want to know, who the fuck ordered someone to hit us at the time." I say.
Ye Zixuan didn't speak, and we continued to walk forward.
When I walked in front of the Nanguan city wall, I saw a notice to identify the body.
To the effect that under the bridge where the North Ring Road and the Dongfeng Canal intersected, a highly decomposed female corpse was found, which was originally buried under the bridge, but was taken out by a stray dog.
Attached are the photographs of the woman's clothing: black heels, a pair of flesh-colored stockings stained with mud, a short black skirt, thong panties, a bra, and a leaky umbilical suit, in addition to these photos, there is a long yellow stick.
When I saw this, according to the location and dress, my first reaction was that this woman was the night girl Tian Tian.
I then told Ye Zixuan, and Ye Zixuan asked: "This night girl is the one we saved in the North Ring when we came back that night when we defeated Tianyan?" ”
I nodded, "But in the end, I didn't save her." ”
"If we don't take care of ourselves, we can't do anything." Ye Zixuan sighed: "You said that when she died, there were two small cuts on her neck, right?"
"That's right. At the time, I suspected that Xiao Hei had bitten her, but fortunately, she didn't become a zombie! I said.
Ye Zixuan looked at the photo carefully again and pointed to the long yellow thing: "She didn't become a zombie because of this." ”
"What is this? I didn't see it just now, could it be a cucumber? Cucumbers also ward off evil spirits? ”
Ye Zixuan said lightly: "This is not a cucumber, this is a peach wood nail." "151 Kanshu.com .
