Chapter 119: Be a pawn crossing the river
The sky is overcast, and the rain is about to fall.
The lanterns on both sides of Kowloon Street are gradually lit, and various mascots with the meaning of 'fortune' in the eyes of the Ming people fly out from different light signs.
For a time, the sky above the entire street was full of visions and brilliance.
There are Pixiu teasing koi, the God of Wealth and Wenchang Pagoda stand side by side, and Maitreya is lying on the huge gold ingots squinting and smiling
Under the light and shadow of prosperity, there are sparsely populated, desolate and depressed streets.
This is the first time Li Jun has seen such a quiet Kowloon Street, not only the residents who live here, but even the contraband vendors who used to squat in the streets and alleys have disappeared.
He silently looked at the signboards on both sides of the street, bars, hotels, mahjong parlors, hot pot restaurants, and Huangliang prostitution halls
Obviously they are all familiar Chinese characters, but under the red and blue dazzling light, there is a coldness and strangeness.
I woke up here, but this place never belonged to me.
"Hey, that's fucking hypocritical."
Li Jun shook his head, laughed and scolded to himself, and his pace increased under his feet.
A moment later, at the end of the long street, a square table stood in the middle of the street.
The copper pot on the table is boiling, and the spicy aroma that escapes makes people feel a warmth in their hearts.
Guo Qingyun sat at the table and beckoned to Li Jun with a smile.
At this time, his appearance has changed greatly, the cyan robe has been replaced by a black power suit, and the hair bun that was once meticulously combed has also become ear-length short hair, which is rudely tied behind his head.
Li Jun pulled over a bench and sat down, looked at Guo Qingyun and quipped: "Why, don't you learn to be a gentleman and a young master?" ”
"When eating, can you stop talking about all this bullshit?"
Guo Qingyun rolled his eyes, picked up a piece of hairy belly and put it in Li Jun's bowl, "If you eat more, you will eat more, otherwise when you don't have to eat in the future, you will miss it very much." ”
This sentence seems to be saying to Li Jun, but it is more like saying it to himself.
Li Jun didn't move his chopsticks, frowned and said, "Guessed?" ”
"You sent someone to send so much money for some reason, how can I guess some."
"Then why aren't you leaving?"
"Where are we going?"
Guo Qingyun smiled, raised his hand and looked around, "Look at these buildings and shops, although they are in tatters, these are the property of many people for a lifetime, and these things can't be taken away." ”
"They will be fine," Li Jun said urgently: "They are not Brother Muddy Waters, and the Chengdu County Government will not sit idly by and watch the Gu family attack ordinary people." ”
"I know," Guo Qingyun's expression was calm, "but when the robe buddy is gone, this street will collapse." Do you think the other gangs will treat them the same way we do? ”
Li Jun said angrily: "When are you still going to care about this?" This time the wind and rain, you can't stop it! ”
In fact, Li Jun still had a sentence in his heart that he didn't say.
For these residents of Kowloon Street, even if Brother Pao collapses, life can still go on, but it may be much more difficult than before.
"Not being able to stop and not being blocked are two different things. My life was given by Master Ding, and I have to keep the inheritance he left behind. ”
Li Jun's eyebrows were stirred, and there were thousands of words in his heart, but he still wanted to speak and stopped, and finally said helplessly: "What Ding Ye said is right, you are a foolish and loyal person." ”
"It's not foolishness."
Guo Qingyun paused word by word, and then asked rhetorically: "Don't just talk about me, then what about you, you could have escaped a long time ago, why have you been holding back until now?" ”
Li Jun was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a wry smile.
Besides, Qingyun's words are not wrong, with his current strength at the limit of Wuba, coupled with the breath Lang who can hide his breath, as long as he goes to the Mo family to change his face, it will not be too difficult to escape from Chengdu Mansion.
Although Daomen can cover the sky with one hand in most of Sichuan and Shu, Qingcheng Group is only holding bull's ears within the scope of Chengdu Prefecture.
As long as he can leave the scope of Chengdu Mansion, Yu Kou wants to find himself is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
As for Jinyiwei, as long as he gives up breaking the lock and Jin Order, Wei Ruoan can also provide shelter for himself.
But is this the result you want?
Going to send someone under the fence?
To endure humiliation?
To be a mediocre and mediocre Wuba for the rest of his life?
The martial arts sequence is a path of advance and retreat, and a moment of cowardice is a lifetime of humility.
When Wufu is alive, he should be like a soldier crossing the river.
Li Jun shook his head and said, "I'm here to fight for a breath!" ”
Guo Qingyun paused word by word, "Then what I ask for is that little bit of righteousness!" ”
At both ends of the long table, the two looked at each other and smiled.
That's it, so there's no need to say more.
Bang!
A thunderclap exploded in the sky!
People kill people, and heaven and earth repeat.
The sky kills, the dragon and snake take off!
The communication device on Li Jun's wrist suddenly sounded, and the messenger was none other than the head of the Gu Mansion, Qian Hai.
The content is concise and to the point, with only six words: the investigation team has entered the city.
"The curtain is on, it's time to sing on stage."
Li Jun raised his eyes to look at the sky, and under the rolling thunderclouds, there were flocks of birds flapping their wings and circling.
New Deal District, Chengdu Prefecture and County Ya.
A luxury bus manufactured by the Shuntianfu Shenji Military Industry Group stopped in front of the Yamen.
The side of the passenger car is sprayed with a pair of honor guard plaques with black characters on a white background - the Ministry of the Ming Empire.
For the first time, the county magistrate of Chengdu County put on the official uniform embroidered with mandarin ducks, but his expression was unusually calm, and he did not have the excitement of greeting the officials of the Ministry of Heaven.
On the contrary, Huang Yaozong, who was beside him, smiled all over his face, walked quickly to the side of the bus, and shouted respectfully: "Your Excellency has worked hard all the way, Chengdu County has prepared a thin wine to wash the dust for you." ”
The car door opened, and three middle-aged scribes dressed in plain Confucian robes slowly stepped out.
The first man with a Chinese character face and a long beard on his chin nodded indifferently at Huang Yaozong, who was waiting on the side, and ignored him directly, and walked straight to the old man who was standing motionless in front of the gate of the county government.
"Student Zhang Xian, I have met Pei Gong."
Seeing this scene, the two palms behind Zhang Xian were stunned at the same time, at a loss for a while.
The old man's footsteps moved, and he moved half a step to the side, "Lord Zhang, you are now a member of the Ministry of Officials' Examination Division, and you are one level higher than the old man according to your official position, so it is against the etiquette system to act like this." ”
Zhang Xian said in a deep voice: "In front of Pei Gong's merits, how can the official position be concerned. ”
"It's all a bit of a passing cloud, you guys have worked hard from Beizhili, let's have a hot meal first."
"Thank you, Gong Pei."
Zhang Xian followed behind the old man and walked into the gate of the county government.
The two butlers who had been fighting each other all the way fell side by side at the end at this moment, and when they crossed the threshold of the county government, they subconsciously glanced sideways at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
Just now, both of them secretly searched the electronic files of the Ministry of Officials.
The recorded county magistrate of Chengdu County is named Pei Xingjian, and his resume is mediocre and not the slightest amazing.
The only thing worth paying attention to is that the person who promoted him to serve as the county magistrate of Chengdu County is now the prefect of Chengdu Prefecture.
Such an old official who relies on nepotism to get fat and lacking, what is there that deserves to be so respectful to Lord Zhang?
The two palms thought like electricity, and a chilling guess popped up in their minds almost at the same time.
Someone deliberately hid Pei Xingjian's resume!
Thinking of this, both of them were heartbroken.
I'm afraid this recommendation will not be as simple as they expected.
