(4,000 chapters) Book 10, Chapter 19: The Covenant of the Hour
"Jinwei, Xiaoyu ......" There is still a long way away from the City God Temple, Jiang Xiaoshu shouted, but there was no echo, Jiang Xiaoshu was shocked in his heart, and he pulled out his feet and entered the door.
The temple was silent, the collapsed statues, the cobwebs stretched everywhere, the ashed candlesticks, and even the bonfires on the ground had not been extinguished, and there were sparks floating...... Everything is the same as before the two left.
The only difference is that the people are gone, the three members of the Yu family are gone, Wang Jinwei is gone, and the luggage of several people is gone, as if they disappeared out of thin air.
A moment later, Sheng Yushen also ran in, so the two of them searched the inside and outside of the City God Temple, but found nothing, and the enemy just kidnapped the four people, not even a message.
Jiang Xiaoshu turned over, and he was already on the roof, and after looking around, he jumped down with a calm face.
Sheng Yu Ember asked, "In which direction?" Jiang Xiaoshu shook his head: "There are traces of people walking on the four roads in the southeast, northwest, and northwest, and the enemy is deliberately confusing our audio-visual." Sheng Yu Ember said, not only are there footprints in all directions, but the number of people ranges from more than ten to more than twenty people, which is obviously deliberately arranged.
Sheng Yu Ember returned and asked, "What to do now?" You are on the southeast side, and I am on the northwest side, go separately to find ......"
"No," Jiang Xiaoshu shook his head: "Sheng Yu Ash, have you thought about a question?" ”
"What?"
"Wang Kui's Xiaoxiang Pavilion was burned down by the two of us, Hao Dayue was threatened by me, and the Zhijiang rudder was not safe, we took it for granted that he would jump over the wall in a hurry to attack Xiaoyu Jinwei and them...... But how could he know that we were in the Temple of the City God? Can you still gather people to kidnap in such a short time? ”
"You mean, someone is spying on us and telling Wang Kui?"
"Yes, a very mysterious man who has never faced us head-on."
"And then?"
"They are not just kidnapping, their real purpose is to deal with the two of us...... But there was no message in the City God Temple, which showed that they had not thought of what conditions to put forward for the time being, or rather, there was a disagreement. ”
"So?"
"So we can't act rashly now, but wait." ………… Somewhere in the wild, Wang Kui was arguing with someone: "Those two brutes first snatched the small fish, cut my face, injured my ears, and finally burned the Xiaoxiang Pavilion...... Such a great shame, can't you kill them? ”
"That Sheng Yu Ash, as long as you have the ability, I will turn a blind eye to what you do to him; But that Jiang Xiaoshu is a martial artist in the capital, and he is a son, who knows what the origin is? If something happens in Zhijiang, I can't afford to wait. ”
"Petropolitan! What pedantic! You just have to do things, is it possible that if something happens, my Jiang Yue Gang can't afford it? ”
"Hmph, that's not necessarily, it really alarmed the imperial court, and stabbed the Jiang Yue Gang and couldn't bear it, even if it could bear it, I'm afraid it would hurt my muscles and bones, and then you and I would become outcasts, and be taken by the Chen gang leader and her old man to make a name for yourself and lose your head, should you be easy to deal with?"
"I don't care!" Wang Kui waved his hand very excitedly: "If I fall this breath today, I will teach people to laugh at me for the rest of my life!" How can I stand still here? Around! Bring those four men up, and I'll cut them down now!" As soon as the master of my Jiang Yue Gang arrives, I will cut Jiang Sheng's two thieves with a thousand knives! The subordinates brought the three members of the Yu family and Wang Jinwei up, Wang Kui pulled out the knife with a bang, and the person who had argued with him before couldn't help frowning when he saw this, and then arched his hand and said: "Boss Wang Kui, I have already brought the news to you, I hope you will do it yourself, I will go first." Then he walked away, and when he was far away, Wang Kui spat on his back and scolded in a low voice: "Coward, timid! Then he took his knife and walked towards the four men.
The people who had quarreled before, Xiaoyu's family had seen them, and they were even very familiar with them, and when they heard that this person was colluding with Wang Kui, they felt an indescribable sense of powerlessness in their hearts, Wang Kui's figure was getting closer and closer, and the shadow shrouded them, as if it was dark.
Wang Jinwei on the side had a blue nose and swollen face, and blood hung on his face, it seemed that he had suffered a lot in order to protect Xiaoyu's family, but at this time, seeing that Wang Kui was going to kill Xiaoyu's family, he didn't know where to give birth to a courage, and he struggled to block the front, shouting: "Beast!" What kind of ability is it to bully the old and weak, women and children, there is a kind of coming at me. ”
"Oh, you're a strange cook." Wang Kui smiled contemptuously, and then threw a cold punch, hitting Wang Jinwei's lower abdomen, Wang Jinwei only felt that his abdomen was overturned, and he couldn't help but bow down and retch, and then Wang Kui's voice came from the top of his head: "I hate people who are taller than me the most!" So I'm going to cut you off piece by piece until I'm sawing you to pieces!" Wang Jinwei was very scared, the soles of his feet were weak, and he sat down on the ground, Wang Kui laughed wildly: "Hahahaha, with a waste like you, you also want to be a hero?" Get out of the way and stay, wait until I finish killing this stinky mule, and then I will concoct you well......" Wang Jinwei sat on the ground, trembling all over, watching Wang Kui walk towards Xiaoyu's family, but there was nothing he could do.
Wang Kui's hand was raised high, the sharp cold light of the blade was reflected, and the light spot was swaying, Wang Jinwei looked at this scene and closed his eyes in pain.
………… Long Xiaowu's real name is Long Yuhang, since he was a child, his father doesn't love his mother, he is a wild seed that no one teaches, when he grows up a little, he comes to Zhijiang County to mingle, come and go, the hooligan habits of stealing chickens and touching dogs, bullying the weak, seeing the wind and making the rudder, and being strong outside the middle have learned a full ten, and when he grows up in a few years, he wanted to join the Jiangyue Gang, but he was driven away because he was too useless.
Frustrated, he continued to wander the streets, but met Wang Kui, who had just come to Zhijiang to develop, he knew that Wang Kui was a relative of the Jiangyue Gang, and hurriedly went up to kowtow to allegiance, Wang Kui saw that he had a good horse, so he took him as a follower, and later Xiaoxiang Hall opened, so he arranged for Long Xiaowu to do some dirty work, which is also
The origin of the title "Dragon Guy". The business of Xiaoxiang Pavilion is getting bigger and bigger, and Long Xiaowu's chest is getting straighter and straighter, and every time he sees someone, he must brag: "Does Xiaoxiang Pavilion know?" The yellow rosewood gate is a few feet wide, and the words on it are still mentioned by a great gentleman. ”
"What a great gentleman? Is it more remarkable than the Sage Kong? ”
"Nonsense, Sage Kong is a fool?" Long Xiaowu will roll his eyes at this time, expressing his insight in learning: "Your Confucian saint, I've heard of it, a nerd, some time ago he stole other people's things and was hung up and beaten, I saw it with my own eyes, can it be fake?" How can such a person be compared to the gentleman who inscribed the Xiaoxiang Pavilion...... Speaking far away, when it comes to our Xiaoxiang Pavilion, all the bitches in it are as beautiful as fairies, and their kung fu is good, tsk, even the gods go inside to ensure that your legs are soft......" He said spittle, his tone was full of pride, if it weren't for the fact that his conversation was too vulgar, and his dress temperament was too obscene and lewd, people would simply think that Xiaoxiang Pavilion was opened by him.
However, in the past two days, Long Xiaowu's mood has been very bad, for no other reason, because two days ago, he gave Wang Kui the idea of making a beauty bureau, who knew that the plague dog who was pitted jumped off the wall in a hurry, and gave himself a punch on the head, and he fainted on the spot, and when he woke up, the right half of the dough was swollen into a pig's head.
He was naturally angry, covered his face and got up, and happened to see Wang Kui leading people back to the store, he stepped forward and said: "Boss, congratulations...... he was full of hope that the boss squeezed out a lot of oil and water from the plague, and he could also make some rewards; Maybe you can find out that the man has entered the cell, and then you can retaliate.
There are always people in this world who think they are very clever, and no one else can compare to him, but in fact he himself is as stupid as a pig.
Long Xiaowu is exactly such a person, he piled up a smiling face, flatteringly said congratulations to Wang Kui, thinking that his kung fu is unparalleled in the world, even the legendary Lord Wei and Guo Dingtang are not as good as half a hair...... But he didn't think about a question: how can a person who meets a happy event clench his fists and his face is as black as carbon?
Not surprisingly, Long Xiaowu was kicked over by Wang Kui, followed by a flurry of punches and kicks - we all know that Wang Kui is an out-and-out coward, and when he is wronged, he will sprinkle his evil anger on the weaker.
Long Xiaowu was beaten up and desperately begged for mercy, but he could be regarded as answering that sentence
"The wicked have their own grinding." Long Xiaowu crawled home with his tail between his legs, because he was beaten, he got up late this morning, and hurriedly ran to work, but he was dumbfounded - Xiaoxiang Pavilion was burned to a white ground, and everyone was nowhere to be found.
He squatted in front of the door of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion in a daze, and suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder: "From the Xiaoxiang Pavilion?" ”
"What are you?" Long Xiaowu glanced at the man.
"I'm a great man." Long Xiaowu immediately lowered his eyebrows and smiled: "It turned out to be the eldest brother over there at the helm, what are your orders?" The person who came didn't talk nonsense to her, but handed over something, and then gave an order and left.
"Big brother, don't go, what's wrong with Xiaoxiang Pavilion?"
"Go and do things quickly, if you do a good job with your hands and feet, you will be rewarded by the master, and you may be a little follower."
"Yes, uncle, walk slowly, walk slowly, ......" So Long Xiaowu took his things and went to the City God Temple, and before he entered the door, he shouted loudly: "The message of the helmsman of the Jiangyue Gang!" The mule inside came out to meet ......" When he said this, he stopped his mouth, because his throat had been pointed at a sharp knife, and he was shocked: "You! What are you doing? I am the helmsman of the Jiang Yue Gang on behalf of you, you move the uncle, and the Jiang Yue Gang must kill you. Then he saw that the man with the sword was the plague who had injured him yesterday, and he immediately shouted: "Okay, you plague student, it turned out that you broke out of prison with a message?" Jiang Xiaoshu didn't argue with him, but looked at the thing he was holding in his hand, and said with a change of color: "Where did this kitchen knife come from?" The kitchen knife in Long Xiaowu's hand is Wang Jinwei's.
Long Xiaowu saw that Jiang Xiaoshu should not speak, but he was afraid of himself, so he picked up the kitchen knife and swayed triumphantly in front of the other party: "Of course, it is the trophy of my Jiang Yue Gang Helm." ”
"The rudder?"
"I am now the right-hand man of the great master, and I am naturally the chief helmsman."
"Great Master?"
"Even Wei Ye doesn't know, you might as well die. Teach you to be a good man, Wei Ye is Wang Kui's brother, one of the biggest names in Jiang Yue's gang, I am his cronies, you can give me some rules......" The more Long Xiaowu spoke, the more high-spirited he became, it seemed that he had really called Wei Ye a brother and brother, and he had been friends for eight worships, and even Wang Kui was a little shorter than his own generation, so he called him by his name.
Jiang Xiaoshu chewed on this sentence carefully, and then asked, "What words does the chief helm let you bring?" ”
"The chief helmsman orders you, that you should bring all the money to the wasteland outside the city at midnight tonight, and you shall not come a quarter early or half a minute late, otherwise you will look good!" Do you recognize this kitchen knife? If you do this, every remaining knife will come in handy......" Jiang Xiaoshu felt a chill in his heart - this is a meat cleaver, and Wang Jinwei's knives are very complete, and the rest are boning knives, bone chopping knives, plucking clips, and peeling knives...... Seeing Jiang Xiaoshu's face was gloomy and smug with a smug smile, Long Xiaowu left with a big sting, and suddenly heard Jiang Xiaoshu's voice behind him: "Bring a message to the chief helmsman for me, and I'll give you something." ”
"What's that? Let's take a look first, the uncle is satisfied, maybe he is in a good mood to mention it for you. ”
"I'm going to give you a symmetrical face."
"Huh?" Before Long Xiaowu understood what the other party meant, as soon as there was a flower in front of him, Jiang Xiaoshu had already arrived in front of him, and with a snort, the straight fist had hit his left cheek, Long Xiaowu screamed miserably and fell to the ground, and the left side of his face immediately swollen.
Jiang Xiaoshu squatted down, pinched his face, frowned, and said: "There are more on the left, I'm sorry, I'll fix ...... for you" Then another punch came over, and Long Xiaoshu's right face was hit again, and it was swollen a little more, almost the same as the left face, but Jiang Xiaoshu was still not satisfied: "It's worse again, and the left side will make up for it." Then Long Xiaoshu was punched again on the left side of his face, seeing that Jiang Xiaoshu's expression was still dissatisfied, and he seemed to want to repair his face more, Long Xiaowu desperately held Jiang Xiaoshu's hand, and then kept saying: "It's okay, it's okay, it's symmetrical, it's symmetrical......" Jiang Xiaoshu broke away from him and shook his head seriously: "How can that work?" If you say symmetry, you have to be symmetrical, do you want me to be difficult? Seeing that he was about to be beaten again, Long Xiaowu was so frightened that he kneeled and kowtowed, begging for mercy again and again: "Heroes, heroes, grandfathers, ancestors...... I am your gray grandson, this face is already very good, thank you for repairing my face, you always have something to say to the Jiang Yue Gang, the little one will do it immediately. Jiang Xiaoshu stopped and clapped his palms: "Tell Wang Kui and the people at the helm that when it is late at night, people and money will arrive on time, as long as he doesn't move my people, he can talk about anything." Long Xiaowu agreed repeatedly, and then fled with a stream of urine, walked out of the distance, and suddenly said: "Dad was finally beaten by his son, clamp Muggle, this world is really not like words, beasts can also beat people......" Then he puffed up his chest again, like a triumphant general, and went majestically, but unfortunately he didn't take two steps, his ankles were cold, but the feces and urine on his crotch leaked all over the ground.
………… After Long Xiaowu left, Jiang Xiaoshu thought quietly, and Sheng Yu Shen walked out: "What do you say? ”
"Brother Dulong is the left arm and right arm of the Jiang Yue gang leader, and this great master is also the left arm and right arm of the Jiang Yue gang leader...... How many hands does this gang leader have? ”
"I think there are three."
"Oh?"
"Brother Dulong, who is responsible for shooting flowers and transporting fish, is the first hand; The chicken head is a great man, who is a prostitute and is in charge of the work of the hook bar, which is the second hand; As for the remaining hand, it is naturally a double-flowered red stick that grabs the entrance of the hall and fights for territory. ”
"That's reasonable," Jiang Xiaoshu nodded, and then said strangely:
"No, where did you hear about these underworld cuts? Mixed? Sheng Yu Ember was stunned for a moment, and then said:
"I heard it from the storytelling."
"What the fuck is a storytelling? Even this thing? ...... who can teach bad children" Jiang Xiaoshu couldn't help but be suspicious.
"Forget." Sheng Yu Ember shook his head, then frowned - these incisions were all in his head
"He" told himself, it seems
"He" is still a well-informed man. Sheng Yu Ash diverted the topic:
"The letter from the Jiang Yue Gang has arrived, what are your plans?" Jiang Xiaoshu thought for a moment, and then said:
"Sleep."
"Ann?"
"Cheer up, go meet them for a while tonight."
"What are you going to do with it in the end?"
"If Jinwei and Xiaoyu's family can be safe, and Yu Xiaolan can be recovered, it is not impossible to let Wang Kui go."
"You want to let him go?"
"We missed the opportunity, and there is no way to make some compromises."
"I'm not going to compromise." Sheng Yu Ember shook his head slowly. The two looked at each other, and Jiang Xiaoshu smiled:
"I see."
"Oh?"
"You won't be disappointed."
"Looks like you get it."
"How? Pretty chic, right? The conversation ended with these strange conversations, and the two sat on the spot, closed their eyes, and waited quietly for the time to come.
