Strictly speaking.

There is no such thing as a gang of beggars.

1,573 counties in 15 provinces, 328 prefectures in the world, as little as 100,000 or more than 1 million displaced people, all of which are attributed to one organization.

But the "beggars" really exist.

Just like the meat shop, the wine shop, and other guilds, there are about one or two in a city. The leader is called a "beggar" or "group head", and usually does not beg, but only makes a fortune by exploiting other beggars.

The son of a poor man must be a poor man, and the head of a beggar is not necessarily a beggar.

Therefore, it is only natural that Zhang Shaonan led Bo Ziyu and Li Changan to the lair of the local beggars and faced a spacious and magnificent house.

The house is surrounded by a row of pink and white walls, and you can see the flowers, trees and attics rising above the walls. At the gate, I only saw the threshold, but I didn't see the door panel, and the intention was probably to make up for the scar on the silk with the disciples of the Beggar Gang's Pure Clothes Sect.

The meaning of the meaning.

There were a few beggars who caught lice scattered in front of the door, and when they saw three people, they met the cat with the mouse, and they all jumped back into the door with a "swish".

Zhang Shaonan was not surprised, and followed the two Taoist priests.

............

Entering is a spacious courtyard.

As soon as I came in, it was empty and there was no one in sight.

Immediately, a few whistles were heard.

In the corridors, wings, and corners, a large group of beggars "grew" from Hulala, the lame, and the blind, not to mention the forty or fifty people, and surrounded the yard.

In the crowd, I faintly saw some sturdy men, with fierce expressions, holding bright knives and guns in their hands.

"You friends...... "The Taoist priest smiled, "it doesn't seem like a good friend." ”

The Taoist smiled. ”

Zhang Shaonan's face was expressionless.

"It's nothing more than moving around too hard, and it is inevitable that the fight will be hot. ”

Then, in the face of the beggars' not very friendly eyes, he took a step forward and hugged his fist.

"Where is Sun Tuantou?"

The sound sounded like thunder on the ground.

"Why don't you come out and meet the guests!"

However.

There was no response for a long time.

Only the silent gaze of the beggars gathered around.

Just when Bo Ziyu was a little impatient.

"What kind of cat and dog can I see if I want to see the head of my family?"

The crowd in front of him cracked, and a sturdy man crossed his arms, and he approached Zhang Shaonan. A pair of hanging eyes looked back and forth.

"If Zhang Da comes, maybe he can enjoy a thin noodle ......"

At this point, he pretended to pat the door of his head.

"Oh, yes. Zhang Da is dead!"

The beggars burst into laughter, and countless foul language, ridicule and invective rolled in from all directions like a tidal wave.

Syllable!

The "wave" came to an abrupt end.

Hanging eyes covered his face, staggered back a few steps, grunted a few times, and spat out a bloody tooth.

Zhang Shaonan shook his hand.

"If you dare to bark again, I will pick your dog's skin!"

Hanging eyes stared at Zhang Shaonan stunned, and his eyes widened more and more.

Finally.

"Kill them for me!"

Immediately, the beggars were in turmoil, and the scene boiled again.

Under siege.

Li Changan grabbed the hilt of the sword with a cold eye.

He has always had no good impression of this kind of professional beggars, and although there are many poor people among them, there are also many hateful, hateful, and killable people. When did they get less from abduction, murder, arson, harvesting, and cutting?

The Taoist priest's eyes swept over the crowd at will, picking the fat and thin among the beggars, thinking about which ones to cut down in order to scare the rabble as quickly as possible.

Those men who hid in the crowd, carried knives and guns, jumped the most happily, and the men named beggars who were actually thugs were naturally the most "favored", but it was a pity that the Taoist priest swept them one by one, and these men were like being held by knives on their necks, and they were inexplicably honest.

Without these backbones, the hanging eyes were noisy for a long time, and none of the beggars really stepped forward.

When the three of them saw it, they were not in a hurry to do it, so they wanted to see what tricks these beggars could play?

So one side is surrounded but looks on coldly, and the other side is full of people but is very inward, which makes the field look quite funny.

Fortunately, it didn't take long.

"Presumptuous!"

A voice suddenly sounded behind the crowd, which was not loud, but it suppressed the noise of the audience.

"How can you be rude at the moment?"

"Do you know who these two are? That poor master is now a popular man in the yamen, and the Taoist master next to him is a heroic hero who slays demons and destroys demons, which can be provoked by us lowly beggars?"

The crowd parted a road, and a man dressed as a wealthy merchant trotted over, smiled and saluted.

"I said that there was a magpie calling on the eaves of the door this morning, it turned out that Li Daochang and Bo Bantou were coming. ”

This person was wearing a cloud-patterned blue brocade robe, and he raised his face, revealing kindness in his whiteness, but unfortunately he seemed to squint, and put on a black eye patch, which reduced the warmth on his face a little.

Leaving a single eye is still quite smart, and he turned around, as if he had just seen Zhang Shaonan.

"Hey, is there still Zhang Jiaerlang? ”

............

“...... That's the way it is, and I ask the head of the group to help. ”

In the main hall.

A group of beggars waited, and the guests of honor were seated.

Zhang Shaonan picked and chose some things about the demon mutiny, and asked this Sun Tuantou to send his beggars to explore the traces of the monster.

After all, what better place in the city to investigate the hidden demons of the streets than the numerous and inconspicuous beggars?

When Sun Tuantou heard this, he also drank a few cups of hot tea to suppress his shock.

"Horrifying!

But in the end, he groaned about Zhang Shaonan's request.

"Just ......"

Bo Ziyu was anxious: "Just what?!"

Sun beggar smiled and said:

"The team leader is not in a hurry, it's not that the villain refuses to serve, but the brothers follow me just to beg for food, at most I live and suffer less bullying, and I have a straw mat when I die. But it's too difficult for them to monitor and find out what monsters are. ”

Although Bo Ziyu has a reckless temperament, he has also been in the market for many years, and he can't hear the truth of what the other party says, so he immediately scolds him:

"Push three and four, believe it or not, I demolished your beggar's nest!"

"Letter. ”

The beggar smiled and nodded.

It's just that the nobles in the city asked me to restrain the beggars, and I must not disobey it, so I had to change to a place that was not an eyesore and build another nest. ”

Bo Ziyu ate a soft nail without yin or yang, but he couldn't find good words to refute it.

Catch quickly and say that it sounds good is an official errand, but if it is ugly, it is the dog of the government, and the beggar head is not only a dog, but also a chicken that lays eggs, can he really bite the other party to death?

"You're not afraid that the people around you will turn into monsters and gnaw your head. ”

The beggar smiled more and more "sincerely".

"Then it's a villain's life. ”

"You ......"

Bo Ziyu was about to have another seizure, but Zhang Shaonan had already got up and interrupted him.

"Don't talk nonsense, let's get straight to the point. ”

He frowned.

"If Sun beggar's head should do this. ”

"The gambling stalls in the north of the city, the chicken shops in the south of the city, several mansions and teahouses in the east of the city, and the shops on the long street in front of the temple, these plates are all handed over to you. ”

The plate in Zhang Shaonan's mouth is, of course, not his own property, but the territory where his two brothers collect protection money. Although Li Changan didn't know what the oil and water were like in these places, he probably benefited a lot from the looks of the people around him.

Sun Tuantou also nodded.

"No, I can't. ”

When these words came out, Zhang Shaonan's expression froze, and the beggars around him laughed even more.

The hanging eyes standing behind the beggar's head were yin and yang: "Zhang Da is dead, those fat waters, can only one Zhang Er hold it?"

Someone next to him said: "What you can grab with your hand, do you still need to change it?"

Babbling, getting worse and worse.

The beggar had heard enough, so he clapped his hands with satisfaction and quieted down the beggars.

"What nonsense. ”

Qingpiaopiao reprimanded and arched his hand to Zhang Shaonan.

"Erlang, don't misunderstand. ”

"The conditions you gave, as a beggar, I am extremely satisfied, but ......"

He changed his mind.

"The public is for the public, and the private is for the private. ”

He lifted the blindfold, revealing a jet-black, sunken eye socket.

"This eye, two years ago, your two brothers were blind. Now, it still hurts me from time to time. Tell me, how should we settle this account?"

The beggars' eyes were like arrows, and they were projected in unison, and in a rapid breath, the sound of swords being unsheathed could be faintly heard.

Zhang Shaonan's face did not change, he only reached into his arms, took out a small cloth bag, and threw it at the feet of the beggar.

The beggar motioned to his subordinates to pick it up and open it.

There was a pair of bloody eyes inside.

"What is this?"

"My eldest brother's trick. ”

A few whispers rang out in the solemnity.

The beggar was silent for a moment, but he smiled:

"But they fooled me with the eyes of the dead. ”

Zhang Shaonan shook his head.

"Mine is also given to you, but it has to be used for revenge, so I will take credit for the time being. When this matter is settled, if I die, you will send someone to fetch it, and if I live, I will dig it up for you with my own hands."

These words caused more waves in the crowd.

Sun Qi nodded again.

"No, I can't. ”

Zhang Shaonan raised his eyes, and his eyes showed a cold light.

Sun Begtou had already spoken again: "The enmity between the two of us is over, but the enmity of my brothers is ...... It's gone!"

He gestured slightly.

The hanging eyed man behind him came out more and more.

Throw a short knife at Zhang Shaonan's feet.

Tear open the collar to reveal the hideous scar on the shoulder.

"Three years ago, you cut the gambling stall in the north of the city. ”

Zhang Shaonan was silent when he heard this.

Seeing this, he sneered, waved his hand proudly around, and ushered in bursts of applause.

Then.

Zhang Shaonan suddenly bent down and picked up the short knife, stabbed him in the shoulder.

Burst!

Blood splattered and shocking.

The group of beggars was dumbfounded for a while, Li Changan was no longer distracted, and Bo Ziyu got up suddenly.

"Zhang Shaonan, you ...... Be a man and leave a line, don't go too far in everything!"

The last sentence was directed at Sun Beggar.

"Over the top?"

Sun Qi shook his head and smiled, took a sip of hot tea, and replied slowly.

"The enmity forged by this knife has to be resolved with a knife. If only you are the head of the squad or Li Daochang today, Sun will grit his teeth and probably agree. But it's Zhang Shaonan who is here today, if he wants our brother to do things for him, he has to settle our brother's grievances first. Otherwise, even if I am willing to agree, my brothers will not do it!"

The beggars around them all clamored and responded.

Zhang Shaonan also raised his hand and signaled the two not to interfere.

"I know. ”

Bo Ziyu was helpless, stomped his feet, and sat back hatefully.

The room fell silent again.

Hanging eyes sneered twice, retreated into the column, and walked out with a red-faced man.

It was still a knife thrown at Zhang Shaonan's feet.

Pull up your trouser legs, but see a centipede-like hideous scar on your thigh.

"Four years ago, the long street in front of the temple was drawn by Zhang Da. ”

Zhang Shaonan nodded, picked up the knife, and stabbed it again according to his leg.

Redface retreated silently, and another man came up and dropped the knife.

......

A moment later.

Zhang Shaonan had six or seven more knives on his body, his face was pale, his body was shaky, and a pool of blood accumulated under his feet.

Bo Ziyu couldn't bear to look at it anymore, and the beggars around him didn't dare to look at it.

There was only an indescribable dullness that weighed down in the hall.

Then.

A wizened man walked out, he didn't throw a knife like the others.

Instead, he ripped off his clothes and exposed his chest.

But on the left chest with a jagged joint, there is a finger-length scar.

"Five years ago, in the Golan stall in the south of the city, you stabbed it with your own hands. Fortunately, my life was cheap, and my heart was half a point off. ”

As the words spoke, the silence became more and more dead.

The man grinned.

Toss a sharp knife into a pool of blood.

"Do you dare to solve the grudge between the two of us?"

There was a moment of silence.

Zhang Shaonan staggered and picked up the sharp knife.

Bo Ziyu stood up.

The crowd of beggars let out a burst of exclamations.

Li Changan silently held down the hilt of the sword.

"Enough. ”

Sun beggar's head suddenly spoke.

He stood up, his face devoid of the hypocritical kindness of the previous party.

"Sure enough, a good man. ”

"It is said that Zhang Er is not as good as Zhang Er, but I think Zhang Da is not as good as Zhang Er. ”

His face was complicated.

"I'll do your thing. ”

............

Outside the beggar's den.

At the gate without a door panel.

"That man listens well, Li silversmith in the east of the city, the best tooth filling skills, if you look for him to fill your teeth, I will report your name as Grandpa Bo, and keep you less than three points of fire consumption. ”

The man with hanging eyes snorted on the spot, spit bloodshot spit, and returned to the door with hatred.

Bo Ziyu was left laughing outside the door.

laughed so much that he couldn't see the figure, so he took a sip and leaned next to Zhang Shaonan.

At this time, the wounds on Zhang Shaonan's body were also coarsely bandaged, but even though he was extremely measured and did not hurt the vital point, he finally lost too much blood, and his face was terrifyingly white.

Bo Ziyu couldn't help but think of the scene in the hall, and still had palpitations.

"If the beggar leader doesn't shout 'Stop,' are you really going to stab yourself with a knife?"

"Poke yourself?"

Zhang Shaonan raised his eyebrows.

"Naigong picked up the knife to go up and stab that Sun thief to death!"

Bo Ziyu's eyes widened.

"That's a beggar's den!"

Zhang Shaonan laughed.

"It doesn't matter if I have a bad life, the Taoist chief is naturally unharmed, as for your thin team...... Ask for more blessings. ”

Bo Ziyu suddenly seemed to have eaten a bite of the reincarnation of grains, and it took a long time before he held back a sentence:

"Your mother'......"

It's a pity that I didn't finish scolding.

Zhang Shaonan's body shook and fell into his arms.
