Volume 10, Chapter 64: Reckoning

The Wuling County Wharf is different from other places, and this is not only reflected in the lingering ones

The smell of "fish", as well as those seemingly fierce knife and axe hands at the door, but in fact they are strong on the outside. Interestingly, Brother Dulong started by waterway, and used one boat after another to transport countless strong women and children to all parts of the country, and at the same time, in the past few years, he has also started a waterway business, and when he sees the poor, he extorts the so-called

"Boat fare", when you see a rich person, you will directly tear off your disguise, take a big knife and invite someone to eat wontons or noodles...... After coming and going, the scoundrel who stole chickens and dogs every day in Wuling County more than ten years ago and was hungry turned into a red belt veteran of the Jiangyue Gang by relying on these industries.

Therefore, Brother Dulong has a different kind of affection for boats, and even his base - Wuling County Wharf is divided into two layers according to the form of fishing boats.

The upper layer on the bright surface is called

The "deck", between the floor and the water, was added by him, and that layer was called

"Cabin". For this design, Brother Dulong was very complacent, and boasted to everyone:

"Let's eat this bowl of rice on the ship, we must not forget our roots, I built our base into the style of a big ship, just to remind everyone that everything we have comes from the boat and the water, and only by staying in the cabin forever can we have more silver......" In the few months when the wharf in Wuling County was just renovated, because of Brother Dulong's whim, all the wharf gangs lived in the wharf

In the "cabin", but within a few days, everyone found out that Brother Dulong had moved his official office back again

"Deck", asked the reason, but only got a scolding:

"Fuck you, what am I doing? How can I let the fish I caught catch on my head? Isn't it all messed up? "Of course, this reason sounds reasonable, but in fact, everyone knows that there is only one reason why Brother Dulong moved up, and that is

The design of the "cabin" is really stupid to the point of home. The floor of the wharf, even at the highest point, is not more than a zhang from the river, and as for the low place, not to mention, it is almost level with the water surface, but Brother Dulong has to do anything

"cabin", which leads to each

The "cabin" is soaked in water, although the most impermeable wood is used, and it is brushed with tung oil, but after all, it is soaked in water, and it will not be ten days.

The "cabin" is filled with moisture and moss, which is even more uncomfortable than the cabin of a real ship.

Besides, Brother Dulong is a person who is indulged in pleasure, and he spends his days singing and singing, drinking, gambling, and reminiscing about bittersweet memories in the damp, cramped and airtight cabin, and this kind of behavior is effortless for him to talk about, but if he really wants to do it, it is too difficult for him.

Soon after Brother Dulong moved out, the gang also came from these

Moved out of the "cabin", and no one mentioned it again

The "cabin" seems to have collectively forgotten this absurd act. Today

Most of the "cabins" have seeped water, and they can no longer be inhabited, which is funny,

It's a stupid idea to use the "cabin" as a place to live in, but if the water seeps out, it is wonderful to think of it as a small fish pond - the walls are permeable, but the fish are difficult to swim out, and the water quality is always connected to the river, so you don't have to worry about the water quality...... Therefore, a few old people in the dock who are not used and are old will take this

The "cabin" raised fish. But now, the foot has long been abandoned

Inside the "cabin", there was a voice, the voice of a little girl. Zhou Zide and Brother Dulong heard at the same time that this little girl was Yu Xiaolan, who had also disappeared for many days.

After being stunned for a moment, Zhou Zide immediately shouted:

"Xiaolan! Is that you? But there was silence at his feet, as if nothing had happened.

"Tell your man to lift the floor." Zhou Zide pushed his hand forward, and the hard crossbow was so hard that Brother Dulong was in pain, so he hurriedly ordered it

The people in the "cabin" were caught. lifted the floor, and everyone was stunned-

The "cabin" was full of water, but it was empty, but there were a few huge carp swimming around in the green water.

"Idiot! Don't see the bubbles? Down there! Brother Dulong scolded angrily, and several subordinates who were proficient in water immediately jumped down, and within a few breaths, they brought out the two people who were wet, it was Wang Jinwei and Xiaolan, and then several men rushed up and tied up the two.

Zhou Zide sank his face:

"Send the three witnesses to the government at the same time...... who knew that at this time, Brother Dulong raised his hand and stopped his subordinates, and Zhou Zide was furious:

"How dare you play tricks?" Brother Dulong turned his head and said sincerely:

"Lord Zhou, I want to do business with you." Zhou Zide's eyes widened:

"Your life is in my hands! Still dare to bargain? Brother Dulong asked rhetorically:

"Do you want to catch Jiang Xiaoshu?"

"Catch Jiang Xiaoshu?"

"Yes, if you want to catch Jiang Xiaoshu, you might as well listen to my suggestion."

"What advice? Say. ”

"Sheng Yu Ember is a batch, the little girl and the cook are a batch, there are two batches of witnesses here, these two batches of witnesses, Jiang Yue Gang and the government take one each."

"Why do you give one to your Jiang Yue Gang?"

"Lord Zhou has been in Xiangzhou for several years, don't you know the ability of the Jiang Yue Gang?" Brother Dulong asked rhetorically:

"Without the cooperation of the Jiang Yue Gang, with just a wanted warrant and a group of officials in Xiangzhou officialdom who are detached from morality, how can they catch Jiang Xiaoshu's slippery thief? But I am a master of helping, and the helper has already released his words, everyone will go forward and work together, and they will soon be able to lock down Jiang Xiaoshu's location and exterminate it. Under the custody of the two Dingqin Divine Crossbows, Jiang Xiaoshu still escaped, this incident left a deep impression in Zhou Zide's heart, and every time he thought about it, he couldn't help but sigh - can he do whatever he wants with a strong martial arts?

Therefore, when he heard Brother Dulong's words, his heart moved, but his face was still silent:

"Go on."

"If Lord Zhou is willing to agree to this suggestion, I, Wang Yang, can guarantee for Jiang Yuegang that after catching Jiang Xiaoshu, the living will be returned to Lord Zhou, and your death edict can still be completed, and it will never affect Wang Fa's trial of him...... At the same time, the grievances between Lord Zhou and the Jiangyue Gang will be written off from now on, and I will withdraw from Wuling County, and from now on, our well water will not interfere with river water. Zhou Zide's heart moved, his lifelong wish was to hope that the people under the rule of Wuling County could live and work in peace and contentment, and justice could be served, so he did not hesitate to offend Qin Linzhong, did not hesitate to admonish each other with death, and did not hesitate to take risks alone to come to Jiangyue to help the old nest dignitaries.

If it is true that Brother Dulong said so, he only needs to assign one witness to the other party, and all these problems can be solved...... However, although he hated Jiang Xiaoshu, he couldn't help but hesitate to ask him to cooperate with the Jiang Yue Gang, who also had a sea of grievances.

Brother Dulong saw Zhou Zide's face swaying, and immediately said:

"But let me remind Lord Zhou first-if the government knows Jiang Xiaoshu's whereabouts, our Jiang Yue Gang will not sit honestly. After all, when people are in the hands of Jiang Yue's help, the gang leader can return them to the government after seeing them, but when they are in the hands of the government and escorted to Beijing, Jiang Yue's gang wants to ask for more people, but it will be difficult......" Zhou Zide heard this, and his heart suddenly brightened - they did not cooperate with me at all, but wanted to use me to divide the witnesses into one of me, and from then on, they only needed to strictly monitor my behavior to get the news of the government.

Hum! It's really a good calculation. Zhou Zide said directly:

"So, we're using each other now?"

"Uh, haha......" Brother Dulong was stunned for a moment, and then sneered:

"Lord Zhou is quick to talk, so I won't hide it, this is indeed a mutual use. But if Lord Zhou doesn't give up, Wang Yang would like to make friends with you......"

"I don't have a friend like you." Zhou Zide interrupted him, and then pointed at Wang Lan and the others:

"I want both of them to be taken away by you."

"Huh?" Brother Dulong was taken aback, and then immediately said:

"It's a deal! Little ones, hurry up and tie up the cook and the little girl, and let Lord Zhou take them back......" Wang Jinwei and Xiaolan were escorted to Zhou Zide's side, and Brother Dulong smiled at this time:

"Lord Zhou, please." Zhou Zide raised his hand, the crossbow was withdrawn into his sleeve, and he led Wang Jinwei and Xiaolan to stride away.

He wasn't worried that he couldn't leave here - first, Brother Dulong swore in public, so naturally he wouldn't go back on his word.

Second, the power of the divine crossbow is really appalling, and no one wants to provoke himself who holds the Dingqin divine crossbow and regards death as home.

From the moment Zhou Zide turned around, Brother Dulong's expression was instantly low, looking at Zhou Zide's back and disappearing into the distance, Brother Dulong's expression remained unchanged, and the subordinates present did not dare to speak, and after a long time, a black belt master whispered:

"Brother Dulong, you ......" Brother Dulong turned his head:

"How?" The black belt master whispered:

"I've been so arrogant this week, I'm going to let him taste ...... one day"

"Didn't you hear that I said that I had a grudge with him and wrote it off?" Brother Dulong asked rhetorically:

"If I hear and ask such a question, can I think that you think I am a man of my word?" The black belt master hurriedly bowed his head:

"Yes." Brother Dulong said coldly:

"I know what you want to ask—why do I dare to promise him on behalf of Jiang Yuegang that Jiang Xiaoshu will be returned to him."

"Let me ask you, if Jiang Xiaoshu is made into a human being, deaf, dumb and blind, unable to write, and even mentally deranged, what is the use of him taking it?"

"He is unwilling to cooperate, he is smart, saying that this is just using each other, but it is conceivable that in the face of the outside world, he will definitely say that Jiang Xiaoshu was captured by himself."

"And at that time, everyone knew that Jiang Xiaoshu was in the hands of Zhou Zide, so who would the thunderous anger of the court and Qin Lin fall on in the end?"

"Zhou Zide, the dog thief, thought that he had threatened me today, so he was so angry, but he didn't know that he dug his own grave and stepped into the coffin with half a foot."

"The only thing that matters now is that Zhou Zide raised his foot and stomped on the face of Sheng Yu Shen on the ground:

"Just treat him well."
