Chapter 21 This wine is not good
Ding Chusheng frowned slightly, although he only had a one-sided relationship with Li Mengzhou three years ago, he still vaguely recognized him.
He looked at Li Mengzhou carefully, his figure was a little thin, but his face was resolute, his eyes were very bright, and he had no stage fright under the oppressive force of this kind of Qingfeng Gang Hall Master, which was indeed not comparable to ordinary juniors.
And Li Mengzhou's outfit is also weird, carrying a black cloth that I don't know what is wrapped, and the clothes are also pure black, even the face of the Pu knife in his hand is black.
Ding Chusheng also found that there were traces on the Pu knife, and with his eyesight, he could naturally see that it should have been coagulated by blood.
His eyes narrowed slightly, looked at Li Mengzhou and said, "Your knife is good, but it's a pity that the blade surface is damaged and can no longer be used." ”
Li Mengzhou didn't go to see Ding Chusheng, but said lightly: "It's just used to cut grass, and it doesn't affect its use." ”
Ding Chusheng crossed the walnuts in his hand, was silent for a moment, and said, "I guess you heard some just now, after all, this is my Qingfeng Gang's business, and you are just an outsider after all."
The old man is very grateful to you for saving our young gang leader, but your behavior caused the Moby Dick Gang to attack my Qingfeng Gang, you should probably make a choice, by the way, tell me about your experience in the past three years, and why you suddenly appeared in Huacheng at this time. ”
Li Mengzhou frowned and said, "What is there to talk about boring things." I have promised Lin Shaoyun to join the Qingfeng Gang temporarily, and when the Moby Dick Gang is resolved, I will quit. ”
Lin Shaoyun wanted to speak and stopped.
Ding Chusheng stared at him tightly, and suddenly smiled: "You said that you want to solve the Moby Dick Gang? Regardless of whether you can do it or not, why should we believe you? If you turn against the water in the middle of the way, won't you take us by surprise?"
It's not that the old man suspects you, but it's human nature, isn't it, after all, it's about the entire Qingfeng Gang.
You have a reason to confess everything and win our trust, if your appearance in the flower city is indeed a coincidence, and has nothing to do with the Moby Dick Gang, the old man naturally has nothing to say, and all the Qingfeng Gang welcomes you to join. ”
Li Mengzhou looked back at him and said indifferently: "I don't have the habit of telling others about my past experiences, it doesn't matter to me whether you believe it or not." The Qingfeng Gang is a big gang with the same name as the Moby Dick Gang, is it just a little bit of a problem and it is overstretched? Or is it that Senior Ding is afraid of the Moby Dick Gang?"
Ding Chusheng's face sank, and he said in a cold voice: "When I, Ding Chusheng, broke into the rivers and lakes, there was no such thing as you in the world, who was the old man afraid of in the name of the mad knife? But this is not the old man's business alone, the old man always has to consider the entire Qingfeng Gang and everyone's interests.
It's not wrong for young people to be arrogant, after all, the old man also came from this age, but it's a matter of facts. The Qingfeng Gang does not have the strength to defeat the Moby Dick Gang at present, and a strategic retreat is inevitable.
You alone have a lot of doubts, not to mention, the old man doesn't believe in your strength, can you alone be absolutely sure to win the Moby Dick Gang? Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
Li Mengzhou said indifferently: "I will prove it to you with facts, as for whether you will believe me, it is not my business, but your business." If Senior Ding suspects that I have other motives, you can spy on me, and I believe that Senior Ding is fully confident that under your eyes, any of my conspiracies and tricks will not be realized. ”
Of course, Ding Chusheng couldn't refute Li Mengzhou's words, because it was equivalent to refuting his own ability, but he just didn't expect that the little guy in front of him was quite eloquent.
He laughed and said, "In the face of absolute strength, some conspiracies and tricks are naturally not on the table. If you don't want to talk about anything else, you have to prove to us that you're firmly on the side of the Breeze Gang.
How about taking the head of a Moby Dick Gang as a gift for joining the Breeze Gang? And if you successfully complete it, the old man will definitely prepare a meeting gift for you in person to welcome you to join. ”
Li Mengzhou understood Ding Chusheng's true intentions, the hall master of the Moby Dick Gang had to be a master of the Eight Grades at worst, and Mo said that it was impossible for the Moby Dick Gang to risk the life of a hall master, just to insert an eyeliner in the Qingfeng Gang, that is, it was unknown whether Li Mengzhou could kill an Eight Rank martial artist.
After all, this is not as simple as killing an eight-rank martial artist, as the hall master of the Moby Dick Gang, there will naturally be more masters around him to protect him, and basically there is rarely a time to act alone, in Ding Chusheng's opinion, Li Mengzhou is impossible to complete.
And even if it is really completed, it can prove that Li Mengzhou has a problem, because a person who does not have the strength has completed an impossible task, and in addition to luck, it is more of a conspiracy.
It may be a play, a play in which the head of the Moby Dick Gang faked his death to allow Li Mengzhou to win the trust of the Qingfeng Gang.
Of course, this is Ding Chusheng's idea, others don't know, maybe some people can think of it, and they also chose to keep silent.
Ding Chusheng got up and came to Li Mengzhou, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Good luck." ”
He left the lobby with a smile, and the rest of the hall masters also said goodbye to Lin Shaoyun one after another.
Soon there were only two people left in the entire hall, Li Mengzhou and Lin Shaoyun.
The latter said worriedly: "Mengzhou, this is not an easy thing, are you sure?"
Li Mengzhou looked at him strangely and said, "What does this have to do with me? I didn't promise him." ”
Lin Shaoyun was speechless for a while.
Li Mengzhou didn't speak just now, I'm afraid everyone will think that he is acquiescing.
Lin Shaoyun was very troubled, he didn't know what to do.
Li Mengzhou sat on the chair next to him slowly, glanced at the tea next to him, looked up and said, "Is there any wine?"
Lin Shaoyun brought wine, sat next to Li Mengzhou, and sighed: "I didn't expect Ding Bo's thoughts to be so different from mine, I always feel that this shouldn't be his character, although a lot of what he said makes sense, but since the Moby Dick Gang has made trouble and blindly retreated, doesn't it mean that it is my Qingfeng Gang who is afraid of their Moby Dick Gang? I don't even have the courage to fight back?"
Even if this predicament is settled, then my Qingfeng Gang has already lost to the Moby Dick Gang, how can I have the face to face the entire Jianghu people in the future?"
The rumors on the rivers and lakes are very scary, this is about the majesty of a gang, retreating without a fight, it is a coward's behavior, and it will be ridiculed by other gangs, although this does not affect anything, but the disadvantage of the wind direction is also a very serious problem, which will greatly damage the morale of gang members.
But at the same time, Lin Shaoyun also knew that a strategic retreat might indeed be a better way, after all, the Qingfeng Gang really did not have the strength to start a comprehensive war with the Moby Dick Gang at present, and there were too many changes in it, and if you were not careful, you might lose everything.
Because of this, Lin Shaoyun was even more entangled, not knowing whether to choose to take the initiative or temporarily retreat to ensure temporary peace.
Listening to Lin Shaoyun's words silently, looking at the sad face on his face, Li Mengzhou took a sip of wine, frowned slightly, and said: "It's not very delicious, the taste is not mellow, you may have been deceived when you bought wine." ”
Lin Shaoyun looked at Li Mengzhou in amazement.
At the moment when he was so entangled, Li Mengzhou was still paying attention to the question of whether the wine was good or not, which really made Lin Shaoyun not know what to say.
Li Mengzhou didn't seem to notice Lin Shaoyun's gaze, and said, "Since you already have an idea, why should you care about other people's opinions? The Qingfeng Gang may not be yours, nor your father's, but belongs to all those who help it grow up."
But in the final analysis, the Qingfeng Gang is still surnamed Lin, and you, as the leader of the Young Gang, have some right to speak. It's better to have an idea than not to have an idea, and whether the idea can be realized or not, you always have to give it a try. ”
Li Mengzhou put down the wine glass in his hand, looked sideways at Lin Shaoyun, and said seriously: "And in my opinion, the problem you are struggling with is biased. When you are not ready, choosing a strategic retreat is indeed a good way, and blindly rushing up is a reckless behavior.
But the key question is, what is the purpose of the Moby Dick? Their choice to take the initiative, for whatever reason, shows that they are fully prepared.
And if the Qingfeng Gang retreats, it will not be able to stop the Moby Dick Gang's attack, but it will greatly increase their morale, and they will launch a more fierce offensive, and the Qingfeng Gang will be at an absolute disadvantage and have no power to fight back. ”
Lin Shaoyun smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think I can't think of this, you also said it yourself, the Qingfeng Gang is not what a certain person said." This is not when the Qingfeng Gang was just established, although the gang leader has the highest right to speak, but once it threatens the interests of many people, then the identity of the gang leader becomes dispensable. At that time, it will not be external troubles but internal worries. ”
Li Mengzhou thought for a moment and said: "It is not possible to retreat, nor can it be possible to take the initiative to attack, then there is only one way." ”
Lin Shaoyun said: "What do you want to say?"
Li Mengzhou picked up the wine glass, thought about it and put it down again, and said: "Under the double pressure of external troubles and internal worries at the same time, we might as well solve the internal worries first, eliminate all possible unexpected factors, and make the entire Qingfeng Gang monolithic, so that we can have enough energy to deal with the Moby Dick Gang." ”
Lin Shaoyun shook his head and said, "It's easy to say, how easy is it to do." And even if the internal worries are successfully solved, the overall strength of the Qingfeng Gang will be greatly reduced, so how can we compete with the Moby Dick Gang again?"
Li Mengzhou looked at Lin Shaoyun and didn't speak, he knew that Lin Shaoyun was actually very smart, but his personality was a little weak, or he had no opinions, and he had been moving closer to the gentleman for many years, it was difficult for people to think that he had any ambition, except for the identity of the young gang leader, I am afraid that not many people in the Qingfeng Gang would really take him seriously.
Lin Shaoyun can also think of the problems that Li Mengzhou can think of, the biggest difference between the two people is that the former will do it immediately when he thinks of it, while the latter will hesitate, or even deny himself, resulting in the end it will only become the idea in his heart, and nothing can be changed.
Li Mengzhou was almost certain that Lin Shaoyun's own questions were actually answered in his heart, otherwise he would not have been able to ask more critical questions immediately when Li Mengzhou said it.
Lin Shaoyun lacks self-confidence, even if he is the young gang leader of one of the largest gangs in Xi'an County, but in the environment he has been in since he was a child, he has not been overbearing, but has some inferiority complex.
Li Mengzhou was thinking about the origin of Lin Shaoyun's inferiority complex, and soon he found out the key person.
He said: "If all you are worried about is that the Breeze Gang will not have the strength to compete with the Moby Dick in the end, then the only way is to find allies, and if there are other gangs willing to help the Breeze Gang, they will be able to fill the gap after the Breeze Gang has eliminated internal troubles." ”
Lin Shaoyun was stunned for a moment and said, "In the entire Xi'an County, no gang dares to swing a knife at the White Whale Gang, unless it ......"
In the end, he was silent, and his face was a little unnatural.
Li Mengzhou said lightly: "Unless Vermilion Bird Hall is willing to make a move, as the largest gang in Xi'an County back then, although it has taken a back seat, only Vermilion Bird Hall can have the strength and courage to fight against the White Whale Gang." ”
Lin Shaoyun said bitterly: "Impossible, Vermilion Bird Hall will not help the Qingfeng Gang, I know this very well." ”
Li Mengzhou got up and walked towards the outside of the hall and said, "If you don't try, how will you know." ”
