Chapter 1: Ding Li
Under the clear sky, the sea breeze did not seem to be so violent, and several large sea ships that had just entered the port were docking on the dock, and a group of strong men with bare shoulders and bronze muscles were facing the sea boats, pulling the hemp rope with the thickness of their arms.
"Whoa."
The sea water brought up by the shaking of the hull of the ship slapped on the shore, and the commander on the deck of the ship was shouting loudly, and as the group of coolies on the shore slowly moved forward, the huge ship gradually stabilized, and the waves on the shore gradually decreased.
Immediately afterwards, several anchorers on the shore quickly caught the rope anchor thrown from the sea ship, and fixed it on the anchor pile together, and the sea ships stopped steadily on the shore one after another.
Not far away, next to a pile of wooden boxes full of goods, Ding Li, who was squatting on the ground, was holding a worn-out porcelain bowl in one hand, and was stuffing a piece of dry and hard dough cake into his mouth with the other hand, tearing it hard, chewing two bites, pouring a large mouthful of mild fresh water from time to time, and his bare upper body bulged with muscles the size of a fist, more like a piece of hard stone.
However, on the dark skin, there are large and small scars, thick and thin, long and short, especially some round holes. Of course, no one knew that the murder weapon that caused these wounds was a sharp weapon known as a firearm.
"Brother Li!" A young man who was a little less than 1.7 meters tall was sweating profusely and trotting all the way, but he waved at Ding Li with a smile on his face and smiled: "Xiao Lizi's side has negotiated!" One ship's cargo is enough for our brothers and brothers this afternoon, maybe it will be too late to go back tonight! ”
"Okay! Just have a job to do! The brothers still have to feed their families! Ding Li glanced up at the visitor slightly, grinned slightly and showed a mouthful of white teeth, nodded, stuffed the last mouthful of bread into his mouth, got up and patted the shoulder, and smiled with satisfaction: "Hard work, dog!" ”
"It's not hard, how can it!" The short dog hurriedly smiled and shook his head, then turned his head and smiled evilly at Ding Li, squeezed his eyes at the few people behind Ding Li with deep meaning, and joked maliciously: "If you want to say that it is hard, how can you compare to Brother Shangli!" I have to work during the day, and I can't rest when I go back at night! ”
"Yes! Brother Li is really a blessing, there is at least one woman in the family, no matter how you say it, it is better than our group of bachelors! ”
"Huh! Brother Li, I see that you don't have much energy in the morning, you received your salary yesterday, and your sister-in-law must treat you well in the evening, right? ”
"A bunch of stinky boys!" Hearing the laughter and jokes in his ears, Ding Li smiled happily, but in the depths of his mouth, there was a trace of pain that was not easy to be noticed, and then he stretched out his hand and waved at the people behind him who were still laughing, and strode towards the direction of the dog's outstretched hand, and reminded loudly without looking back: "Hurry up, you will be rubbed later, and your wages will be deducted!" ”
As soon as the words fell, several young people behind them immediately rushed forward, but they were not worried about the deduction of wages in Ding Li's mouth. is just such a group of coolies who make money with their physical strength at the docks, but they are still living happily and freely.
And Ding Li is the leader of this group of young people, because of working at the dock, there are often things that are deducted from wages for various reasons, and most of those bosses are bullies who are afraid of the hard, where Ding Li comes forward to ask for wages, he guarantees that he can pay it off at one time, because, before that, there was a boss who wanted to bully the dog, and the final outcome was that he was tied up and thrown into the sea by Ding Li, and five fingers were broken, and even a group of big hands were beaten by Ding Li.
With the lessons of the past, even if Ding Li did not come forward, there were few bold traders in the wharves of the entire Guangzhou Port who dared to default on their wages. Although Ding Li's group of people acted rudely, it did not affect their business, because none of the work that Ding Li took over could not be completed on time, not only the speed was guaranteed, but also the quality and quantity were guaranteed.
Ding Li was in front, the dog and the rest of the people followed quickly, but they still couldn't catch up with Ding Li's footsteps, every time at this time, everyone would invariably study a question, who is Brother Li in front of them? Even the posture of walking makes everyone feel that there is a god-like existence in front of them, tall and mighty, like a mountain.
The corners of his mouth were filled with a faint smile, and Ding Li, who was strutting forward, suddenly shook his body, and the scene that appeared in front of him couldn't help but make the corners of his eyes twitch fiercely, and in the next second, Ding Li was like a cheetah, with wind under his feet, and he had jumped out of more than ten meters almost instantly.
"What's wrong? Little Lizi, who did it? Seeing Xiao Lizi, who was arranged by himself to negotiate with the vendor, was supported by two brothers who went with him and staggered forward, Ding Li suddenly realized that he must have had an argument with someone, and after Xiao Lizi slowly raised his face, Ding Li instantly felt a cloud of anger rush in his heart, rushing straight to his head, and even caused a moment of blankness.
The little plum in front of him, his front teeth fell out one and a half, his mouth was dripping with sticky blood, his cheeks were blue, and even his eyes were hit hard, swollen like two boiled eggs, and he couldn't see his eyeballs at all.
"Li, Brother Li." Xiao Lizi, who was trying to raise his head, pulled the wound at the corner of his mouth as soon as he opened his mouth, and immediately let out a gasping sound: "Hiss. . . ”
"Don't speak!" Ding Li pressed Xiao Lizi's shoulder, took Xiao Lizi and leaned on him, then frowned, and asked in a deep voice at the two people who followed Xiao Lizi: "Wang De, Wang Huan, what happened?" Who hits Little Plum? ”
Wang De and Wang Huan are brothers, of course, Xiao Lizi was beaten like this, and both of them also hung up their colors, but they were much lighter in comparison, after seeing Ding Li at this time, the two immediately showed a look of grievance, I didn't expect that the usual easy things would become so difficult for the two of them, and they were beaten.
"Li, Brother Li, yes, it's those guys from the Xunzhou Gang!" When the young Wang Huan responded, he even squeezed out two tears of grievance, and the elder brother Wang De on the side immediately glared at the other party, stretched out his hand and pushed his younger brother aside, raised his head and scolded Ding Li loudly: "Brother Li! It's Xunzhou to help those women who are enough to raise! When he came up, he was going to rob Brother Li of the good work he had talked about, but he didn't say a few words, so he relied on more people to do it, and said that he would see him once and beat him once in the future! ”
"Xunzhou Gang?" Ding Li's face sank suddenly, and his brows furrowed, of course he had heard of this name, in fact, it was a group of guys who came to Guangzhou Port from Xunzhou to work as coolies, relying on the unity of many people, and made a world at the dock, but what made Ding Li puzzled was that he, the locals of Guangzhou Prefecture, had never had a dispute with each other, even if there was a dispute because of making money, why did he have such a heavy hand on Xiao Lizi.
"Brother Li, I know the Xunzhou Gang!" The dog and others who caught up from behind also listened to Wang De's words, and immediately tiptoed beside Ding Li to explain: "The Xunzhou Gang has always been overcrowded and oppressed by our locals, and the leader is a guy in his thirties who is called Leper Five, and there are two special ones under his command who can fight, what is it called South Fist and North Leg!" ”
"That's right, that's the Nanquan who did it first!" Wang De immediately nodded on the side, and as he spoke, he stretched out his finger and pointed to the little plum who was leaning on Ding Li's body, and added in a panicked voice: "Brother Li's eyes were hit by that guy, and that fist is really powerful!" I smashed the wooden box with one punch just now! It's horrible! ”
"Don't be arrogant! Your fists can smash too! Ding Li frowned dissatisfiedly, so frightened that Wang De immediately shrank his neck, and then Ding Li groaned, shook his head, and said coldly: "Go!" Go find them! Look what they want! ”
That being said, after all, the Xunzhou Gang has a well-known name in the docks, and Ding Li has only been in this world for a few months, but he has heard some rumors, and the people behind him are different.
"What? Are you afraid? Ding Li noticed everyone's expressions while handing over the injured little plum to the dog, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, the corners of his mouth floated with thick disdain, and said in a cold voice: "Aren't they two shoulders and one head?" They're men, you're not men? ”
After saying that, Ding Li didn't care about everyone's reaction, and after whispering a few words to Xiao Lizi, he turned around without hesitation and strode into the distance.
After walking a few steps, Ding Li heard the sound of sparse footsteps behind him, and then, there were more and more footsteps, but they were very chaotic, and Ding Li's face was more and more raised, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"It's been a long time since I've been active."
muttered to himself in his heart, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became thicker and thicker, of course, the activity that Ding Li said definitely did not refer to carrying goods every day, but to fights and brawls.
。。。
"Nanquan, your kid's fist is not afraid of bursting the eyes of the little rabbit cub just now?" Just snatched a business, the north leg located next to the sea ship looked particularly happy, looking at the group of coolies who were also from Xunzhou desperately carrying the goods, a sense of pride floated in his heart, the same people, but in comparison, he and his friend Nanquan were treated much better, and they only needed to teach the blind guys a lesson from time to time, as for the dirty work of carrying goods, there was no need for the two brothers to do it.
"North leg, don't you fucking talk about me, don't you too? Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get out of bed for three or five months after whipping that kid with that leg just now? Nanquan's face bloomed with a smile of victory, but a trace of contempt quickly floated, shook his head slightly, and sneered in a low voice: "That kid just now? I only used 30% of my strength! If it were at night, I would have hit him in the head with seventy percent of my strength! ”
"Almost!" Hearing this, Bei Leg shrugged his shoulders indifferently, as if the two were discussing how to kill a pig, pursed the corners of his mouth, and echoed with a cold smile: "If it is night, I will definitely kick his waist with one kick, so that he will not be able to get out of bed in his life!" ”
Unintentionally laughing, Nanquan and Bei Leg turned their heads to look at each other and smiled, but their eyes suddenly widened, and they took two steps back at the same time, and looked behind them with a vigilant expression, although the two were still in the bright sun, but from the shirtless person in front of them, they felt a little cool, and quickly penetrated the heart, from the soles of their feet to the door of their heads.
"Who is going to blow my brother's head? Who's going to kick my brother's waist?! Although Ding Li, who is less than 1.8 meters tall, has no height advantage in front of Nanquan and North Legs, and even his figure is not particularly burly, but the muscles that reveal infinite strength all over his body make the opposite Nanquan and North Legs feel unprecedented pressure.
"You guys are the South Fist and the North Leg?" With a quick glance of his gaze, Ding Li's gaze finally returned to the two people in front of him with a wary expression, raised his eyebrows, and asked in a deep voice.
