Chapter 13 The Yellow River Water Leader

Zhang Er saw that everyone was disappointed, but suddenly remembered such a person, and hesitated again and again but opened his mouth.

Seeing that things were still taking a turn for the better, Wu Lao Lao hurriedly asked, "Who do you say can take us to Black Dragon Village?"

Zhang Er's face was embarrassed: "That person dared to go to Black Dragon Village, but he has a bad temper, and no one of us has dealt with him, so I'm afraid it's not easy to talk." ”

Wu Lao Lao said with a smile: "Okay, as long as someone dares to go, it's a big deal that I'll pay more." Wu Lao Lao thought that giving more money would impress that person.

Who knew that Zhang Er shook his head and said: "That person is a strange person, he is not greedy for money, he usually has no money to buy wine and drink before he comes out to run a boat for two days, as long as he gets out of the boat, he catches the most fish, his eyes seem to be able to see the river clearly, and he already knows where the fish in the river are." ”

Wu Lao Lao also solemnly became solemn at this time: "In this way, that person really has some skills." ”

Zhang Er said with a hint of humor: "That person is a little weird, and his ability is really good, it is said." ”

Zhang Er deliberately lowered his voice at this time and said mysteriously: "We all call that person Lao Sha, sixty or seventy years old, it is said that this Lao Sha was a famous water leader on the Yellow River in the former Qing Dynasty." ”

Wu Lao Lao looked at Zhang Er in surprise: "Are you sure you can be a water leader?"

Fei silently listened to their words in the clouds, and he was clearly confused, and he didn't dare to ask. At this time, Long Ziyan said crisply: "What is the water handle?"

Wu Lao Lao looked at someone asking questions and also had the intention to tell the younger generations about the secrets of the rivers and lakes: "As the saying goes, the mountain eats the mountain and the water is draught, and the bandits who cut the path on the mountain shout that this mountain is opened by me, and this road is opened by me. ”

At this time, Zhang Er gave a thumbs up and praised Wu Lao Lao and said: "You are really well-informed, that Lao Sha is not our local, when he first came, he guarded a broken wooden boat alone, and by the way, there was an old black dog sleeping lazily on the bow of the boat." ”

Zhang Er recalled: "If you want to say that this is not an ordinary person, it is not ordinary, that Lao Sha has only been here for a few days, and he has robbed us of many old customers of the local people with his good fishing skills, but he also ran out of wine before he came out to run the boat, which is not too conflicting with us."

At first, it was really peaceful, but we have a bastard called Niulanzi who fools around with some fox friends and dog friends every day, and I don't know which tendon is the wrong business, and the business of the red family Lao Sha relies on his own being a local to bully the foreigner Lao Sha, today I will go to take a carp for nothing, and tomorrow I will knock on the bamboo pole. The old sand didn't resist, and let him bully him, but the old black dog wanted to pounce on him every time he saw the bullpen, but Lao Sha scolded it, and it didn't really bite the bullpen. ”

Zhang Er said that he whispered with some fear: "Sometimes when the bullpen bullies Lao Sha, we also go to persuade him, but that person is a bastard and it's not easy to mess with, plus Lao Sha is a foreigner, and he doesn't know anyone here, so he simply goes through the bullpen."

The incident happened half a month after the bullpen bullied the old sand, that night Lao Sha was drunk and took his few drunk fox friends who were also drunk to Lao Sha's boat, and without saying a word, he went to open the barn to get fish, Lao Sha did not stop him, the old black dog barked on the side, the cow pen was drunk and looked at the old black dog angrily from the heart of the evil to the side of the gut He sneered twice: "You beast doesn't know how to do it, even Lao Tzu dares to bite, a few brothers take a hand, let's slaughter him and drink dog broth to warm up." The rest of the people were also eager to try, but one person, Xiaoliu, was not too drunk and kindly persuaded him: "Let's take the fish and forget it, go buy some wine and meat." The bullpen said nonchalantly: "Buy a fart, today Lao Tzu has to eat ready-made." Seeing that Xiao Liu couldn't stop it, he stood aside and didn't start, and those people forced the old black dog step by step, and the old black dog was ready to pounce on them.

At this time, Xiao Liu, who didn't intervene on the side, saw it clearly, as everyone got closer and closer to the old black dog, Lao Sha's eyes became more and more emotionless, just when they were about to do it in the bullpen, that Lao Sha couldn't help but sneer anymore, just this sneering scared Xiao Liu. The bullpen was frightened by Lao Sha, and couldn't help but say angrily: "What are you laughing at?" As he spoke, he slapped Lao Sha in the face.

I saw that Lao Sha's body didn't move, a cold light flashed, and there was an extra human hand on the ground at the same time and the screams of the bullpen sounded, Lao Sha just took out a rag and casually wiped a dagger-sized short knife in his hand. In a few moments, the screams of the bullpen like pigs drew us all over.

Lao Sha saw that the people were almost here when he spoke: "Sha came here half a month ago, I have no intention of robbing you of your draft business, I have endured the repeated bullying of this guy, Sha is not a person who repays grievances with virtue, today they each cut off a hand, I can spare them, otherwise, hehe." ”

Lao Sha just sneered twice, but everyone present could hear the threat in Lao Sha's laughter. The bullpen saw a lot of people gathering, first he had just been cut off, his hand couldn't hold his face, and now he wrapped his broken hand with his clothes and shouted to his fox friends and dogs: "What are you watching? Are you all watching the show? I was frightened by an old man and spread the word, how are we still messing around in Phoenix City?"

Except for Xiao Liu, the rest of the people looked at the elderly Lao Sha and put on a posture, Lao Sha looked at them and didn't say anything and threw the rags that wiped the knife on the ground. The men exchanged glances at each other, and rushed forward together without paying attention to any fair duel.

That Lao Sha was not in a hurry like an old swallow waving the short knife in his hand in the crowd that rushed up, and after a while, he saw Lao Sha jump up and fall steadily outside the circle, and everyone looked at the fox friends and dogs in the bullpen with cold air on their necks, only to see that they were all lying on the ground with heart-rending screams, and the ground was scattered with severed hands that were cut off by Lao Sha. Looking at the old sand again, his face was not red, he picked up the rag and continued to wipe the blood on the short knife.

Lao Sha looked around at the stunned crowd and nodded with satisfaction, and finally stopped his gaze on Xiao Liu. Xiao Liu saw the tragic situation of his companion, his face was as frightened as ashes, and now when he saw Lao Sha, his legs trembled when he looked at him, and he knelt on the ground all of a sudden, and said resignedly: "Please, Lao Sha, no, Master Sha, let me go." ”

Lao Sha looked at Xiao Liu, who was kowtowing on the ground like pounding garlic, shook his head, threw out the short knife and stuck it straight in front of Xiao Liu, and the blade of the knife was not half in.

At this time, a young man in the crowd of onlookers finally stood up and said: "Lao Sha, you have already cut off so many people's hands, you have to spare people and spare people." Lao Sha laughed angrily: "You now know to come out and speak fairly, you have someone to speak for me in the half month that I was bullied." If someone had spoken for me, what happened today would not have happened. Saying that, Lao Sha slowly took off his shirt, and saw that the skin on his upper body was covered with scars in addition to the traces of time, including scars and even gunshot wounds. The crowd saw clearly, that Lao Sha's chest was tattooed with a majestic dragon head different from those green dragon heads tattooed by the Shanghai Qing faction, it was a black dragon with closed eyes.

The young man wanted to say a few more words, but an old man who had some knowledge of the rivers and lakes in the crowd grabbed him and said, "Don't say it, this person is not a good stubble, he is a water leader." Everyone didn't know, but they also kept their mouths shut.

Lao Sha saw that everyone didn't speak, so he put on his shirt: "Since someone pleads for you, you can chop off a finger." ”

Seeing this scene, Xiao Liu knew that his fingers could not be saved, so he gritted his teeth fiercely, pulled out the short knife in front of him, and cut off his left little thumb with his eyes closed tremblingly. Cold sweat oozed from Xiao Liu's aching forehead, and Lao Sha didn't even look at him: "Don't scream, otherwise I'll cut off one of your hands, wipe the knife clean and bring it over." Xiao Liu wiped the blood on the short knife with his own clothes and respectfully handed it back to Lao Sha.

Lao Sha put away the knife, took the old black dog and got on his broken boat, as if nothing had happened just now, he opened the boat and sang a tune that no one had heard: "The waves of the Yellow River are big, the little girl on both sides of the river, my brother pulls the sail, and my sister looks from the shore." "Gradually, on the boat that is moving away, in addition to the singing of the old sand, there is also the triumphant barking of the old black dog on the boat.

After that day, we went to look for the old man who had gone out to wander, and finally the old man was annoyed by the question, so he told him that the old sand was the head of the water.

The old man said: "At that time, I went out to wander and did not make a name for myself, and I heard that there was a Red River boat gang in the Yellow River that sometimes did some water transportation, and I thought that I also had some water nature, so I defected to them, and there I heard that in addition to the merchant ships and the boat gang that did the water transport business, there were also water bandits, and the head of the water bandit was called the water bandit."

Water bandits generally tattoo different dragon bodies on their chests according to their status, the little minions of the water bandits are tattooed with dragon tails, and other different identities have different dragon bodies, and the water has a dragon head tattooed on the chest. Didn't you see that Lao Sha's chest tattooed that day was a black dragon head? He is the head of the water on the Yellow River that kills people without blinking, and this time they broke the bullpen, and their hands are still merciful. "We felt scared when we heard it, but fortunately it wasn't themselves who provoked him, and no one dared to mess with Lao Sha since then, Lao Sha still lives like before. ”

After hearing this, Wu Lao Lao frowned and said, "Then Lao Sha has not been out of the ship in the past two days?"

Zhang Er thought for a while and said, "Lao Sha only left the ship the day before yesterday, and it is estimated that he will not leave the ship in the next two days." ”

Wu Lao Lao said in a deep voice: "Do you know where Lao Sha lives?"

Zhang Er's eyes rolled and said embarrassedly: "I know that I know, but my business?"

Wu Lao Lao was already a human being, how could he not hear the meaning of his words, took out a few silver dollars from his pocket and handed them to him: "Okay, these are for you, you quickly pack up and take us to find Lao Sha." ”

Zhang Ermei smiled and took the silver dollars and carefully put them into his personal pocket: "Come on, Master Wu, let's go." ”
