Chapter Seventy-One: A Cup of Wine Releases Suspicions?
Li Zhongxuan, who returned to the inn after a short time, was in a very good mood, and once it was done tomorrow, he would have one more hole card.
Thinking of this, the smile he had just faced the shopkeeper brightened. It's just that the shopkeeper is a little uninteresting, and asks him if he wants to drink two glasses in the middle of the night! As if he knew that he had no money, he deliberately came to tease him......
After a night without words, Li Zhongxuan got up early.
It was the Chen family's steamed bun shop again, and after buying five or six meat buns to pack, Li Zhongxuan walked towards the city gate.
Fortunately, I didn't meet the soldier this time, otherwise I guess I would have been entangled for a while.
After successfully leaving the city, Li Zhongxuan went all the way north, and soon came to the wine shop.
It's just that it's still early, the wine shop hasn't opened yet, and there are still a few skinny horses eating grass at the door.
Although the door of the store is not open, there are already three or four tables set up in the door. There were several empty bowls on each table, and two large buckets of water were placed next to the table.
Passers-by who are thirsty can pour themselves a few bowls of water to drink. Because of this, the business of this sake store has always been good.
Li Zhongxuan sat on the stool, poured himself a bowl of water, and then took out the meat buns in the bag and began to eat.
A mouthful of hot buns and a sip of cool water, Li Zhongxuan ate so happily and comfortably.
Although there were a lot of five or six big meat buns, Li Zhongxuan had an excellent appetite, so he ate them cleanly after a short time.
After a while, there were more people coming and going on the pipeline.
There were also a few sweaty men who came to Li Zhongxuan's side, picked up a bowl and began to pour water and drink.
"It's so hot right now. ”
"No, the sun has just risen, and I'm already sweating. ”
"When we go to the dock to move goods today, we have to ask the boss to give us some extra wages. ”
......
"Why did this little brother get up so early? Look at your body and appearance, you don't look like us who do coolies. A man with bronzed skin grinned at Li Zhongxuan.
Li Zhongxuan picked up the big bowl in front of him and took a sip, then smiled at the big man and said: "Although the world is much more peaceful now, it is still very difficult to make a living, otherwise I would not have gone out so early." ”
The big man was puzzled: "I don't know what the little brother does?"
Li Zhongxuan waved his hand and smiled: "It's really not worth mentioning, so it's okay not to mention it......"
"If you can do it with this body, our brother can definitely do it, and the little brother will show us the way? It's not a long-term way to go to the dock to move goods every day......" Dahan sighed.
"Yes, little brother, it's a big deal that we earn money and give you a few points. A few of our brothers have strength. Another slightly shorter man followed.
Li Zhongxuan's face was a little embarrassed, he was going to rob the rich and help the poor later. Rob the rich of the Poison Dragon Gang and help your own poor!
"It's not that I don't take you to do it, it's mainly that I'm doing some headless business!" Li Zhongxuan lowered his head and whispered to these men mysteriously: "The poisonous dragon helps you know, right?"
When those men heard this, their faces were a little ugly.
The bronze-skinned man whispered, "Brother, are you a member of the Poison Dragon Gang?"
Li Zhongxuan waved his hand: "That's not it, but the Poison Dragon Gang is my enemy." There's a group of Poison Dragons passing by here today, and I'm going to borrow some money from them. ”
The group of people gasped when they heard this, and the enemies of the Poison Dragon Gang suddenly lost the courage to continue to ask.
In this Jinling realm, who would dare to offend the Poison Dragon Gang? Even General Cao had to give the Poison Dragon Gang a few thin noodles in private. With this skinny white-faced kid in front of you?
They only thought that Li Zhongxuan was crazy, and they got up one by one to leave.
Li Zhongxuan smiled and watched them leave one by one, and he didn't get up to stay.
Then he sat in a daze and waited for noon.
He knew that Wen Baidao would definitely bring Du Ziteng over, because he already knew his means, and if he dared not listen to himself, then his head would definitely move.
Li Zhongxuan never thought that Wen Baidao might not come, because the second possibility was that Wen Baidao had already informed the Poison Dragon Gang of the news that he was here.
He was sure that Wen Baidao would not run, because if he ran, he would lose everything. So Wen Baidao will definitely bet.
Bet that you will win, and your plan will be perfectly implemented today.
Bet that the Drug Dragon Gang will win, and then Wen Bai Dao will die miserably.
No matter how big or small it is, it has no effect on himself, so Li Zhongxuan's heart is as calm as the surface of the water, without the slightest wave.
No matter what the outcome is, Wen Baidao will come to the appointment today.
And with his first-class light skills, he will not be able to beat and run away at that time.
As for Wen Baidao, he must die, otherwise how could they be taken by their own means?
Before you know it, the sun rises higher and higher, and the air becomes hotter.
Although the wine shop is not big, the grass shed on the top blocks the scorching sun, so there are more and more passers-by enjoying the cool now.
Looking at the long knives around him on his waist, coupled with their unkind eyes, Li Zhongxuan knew that Wen Baidao had chosen the Poison Dragon Gang.
However, Li Zhongxuan did not panic at all, and even wanted these people to quickly show their hole cards.
Since the figure is poor, what about the dagger?
Li Zhongxuan is looking forward to it.
His eyes narrowed as he peered out of the shed.
First, the sun was too poisonous, and second, he saw acquaintances.
Duron, and the menacing men behind him.
Li Zhongxuan was very proud in his heart, he didn't expect this Poison Dragon Gang to be so prosperous, it seems that he really stepped on their life.
The dozens of people around him had long since ceased to disguise, and they all put down the big bowl in their hands and clenched the long knife in their hands.
The owner of the liquor store had already noticed the atmosphere here, and he didn't even dare to come to introduce their drinks, so he hid and watched from a distance. Judging by his tangled expression, he must be begging these people not to destroy his liquor shop.
The face of the owner of the liquor store was extremely ugly, after all, it was the Poison Dragon Gang.
Leading the way is the leader of the Poison Dragon Gang.
The people who came and went on the official road avoided it, and they would be scolded by the younger brothers of the Poison Dragon Gang, but they didn't hurt those people.
It may be that their boss has already explained, or it may be that the protagonist today is the young man in the shed who is a little jealous of even the gang leader, so they don't dare to be too presumptuous.
If the dog jumps off the wall in a hurry, who knows if it will affect itself?
One of the Poison Dragons had a heavy face, as their boss had a heavy face.
So no one dared to giggle, and no one dared to speak loudly.
Du Long slowly walked to Li Zhongxuan's table with a gloomy face, and then beckoned to the owner of the wine shop.
The boss didn't dare to come, gritted his teeth and squeezed out a smile and trotted in front of him.
"Bring me a jar of your best drink here, and I'm going to entertain you today. Dulong said softly.
The owner of the liquor shop nodded hurriedly, and ran back to the house at another trot.
After a while, he ran back with a red jar in his arm. After placing the two jars of wine on the table, the boss stood aside with his head down, not daring to say a word.
Li Zhongxuan looked at all this with a smile on his face, and then opened the mud seal on one of the altars by himself.
Bowing his head and approaching the mouth of the altar, Li Zhongxuan stretched out his hand and fanned the tip of his nose.
What a strong medicinal fragrance, a good jar of green bamboo leaves!
He smiled at the shopkeeper and said, "Good wine, it seems that it is not unreasonable that your business here is so good." ”
Duron's face sank, and then he waved at the shopkeeper to signal that he could step down.
The owner of the wine shop immediately smiled and hurriedly bowed back. It wasn't until I went back to the house that I had to wipe the sweat off my face.
Li Zhongxuan picked up the wine jar in front of him, poured himself a full bowl, and then poured a full bowl in front of Du Long.
"Gang Master Du, today I invited Du Ziteng Du Hall Master, why are you here in person?" Li Zhongxuan took a sip of the wine bowl and smiled at Du Long.
Everyone behind Du Long was eager to try, and they all wanted to come forward to teach this boy a lesson.
But their boss hasn't spoken yet, so naturally no one dares to be presumptuous.
Dulong knew that this kid was not easy to deal with, not because of how good his martial arts were, but because he was too slippery.
Fighting a snake and not dying is a seven-point crime, this kind of person must be solved at one time, and he must not be given the slightest chance, otherwise he will backfire on himself.
Yesterday, when he learned the news brought by Wen Baidao, he didn't sleep all night.
Summoned the high-level members of the gang overnight, and after discussing it all night, they came to a conclusion: Don't break the net!
So when he came today, he brought all his hall masters with him.
If you can talk about it, then everyone is a good brother, sit down and drink a few glasses of water and wine to relieve your suspicions.
If you can't talk about it, then the hall masters under your own command will be able to play their role, as long as you surround this kid and don't let him get out easily.
At that time, even if it takes the lives of hundreds of gangs, this kid will be dragged to death.
Thinking of the losses this kid had brought to him a few days ago, Du Long still felt a pain in his flesh! He didn't care too much about the death and injury of his brothers, the only thing he was worried about was that this kid would hinder his majesty and hearts in the Poison Dragon Gang.
He is very good at royal majesty, and for decades, there are countless people under his command who are willing to not even want their lives for him, which is what he is most proud of!
It was this kid in front of him who almost made him fail for decades, so he was furious and shocked.
And last night, he was also shocked by the news brought by Bai Dao, and he actually wanted to move his own brother.
The Duron brothers died when their parents were young.
The eldest brother is the father, and Du Long has been pulling Du Ziteng to grow up, which is also the closest person to him in this world.
When he heard that this kid was going to do something to his closest brother, he was finally a little afraid.
With his own skills, he is not afraid of this kid at all, but his younger brother's martial arts are far inferior to his own! I also blame myself for doting on him too much back then, otherwise with his talent, he would definitely not be an opponent.
This series of reasons made the Poison Dragon Gang not add swords to each other at the beginning.
After all, Du Long is an old fox for decades, even though he is extremely angry in his heart, but he still does not show a trace of color on the surface.
Hearing Li Zhongxuan's sarcastic words, he showed a hint of a smile: "How can the younger brother have such a big face? As soon as we heard that the young man was waiting here today, we gathered the brothers to help the young man early in the morning. ”
The faces of all the hall masters behind Du Long were a little ugly, after all, this was the result of their discussions together yesterday.
And the subordinates behind these hall masters, incense masters, all had unbelievable expressions on their faces, they had never heard of the helper being so polite to any outsider?
In their hearts, who is worthy of being treated politely by the master? Not to mention such a polite and "low-voiced"?
When Li Zhongxuan heard that this Du Long was so polite, he suddenly had some scheming in his heart.
I think these people are taking pictures of their light work of coming and going without a trace, not to mention that he asked Wen Baidao to invite Du Ziteng to scare this Du gang leader.
Thinking of this, Li Zhongxuan smiled even more: "Gang Master Du is really so polite, where is a little person like me worthy of your personal greeting? We have not yet decided the winner of the last few hundred moves, could it be that Gang Master Du has itchy skills for a while, so he wants to come to the competition again today? It just so happens that I have also learned a few styles of boxing techniques in the past few days, and I am worried that no one will ask for advice." ”
Du Long only wanted to lead his subordinates to cut the person in front of him with a thousand knives at this moment, but he was really afraid that he would escape again, and then he would really become a big trouble.
Du Long couldn't hold back his anger and smiled: "If Shaoxia has this Yaxing, of course Du will not refuse." But today's bowl of Chinese wine is so delicious, it's really a bit unpleasant to do it at the moment. ”
Li Zhongxuan nodded: "This slight breeze blows, and it is indeed very comfortable under the pergola." But under the sun, it was very uncomfortable, and if you hand over it, you will inevitably get a stinky sweat, which is really not beautiful. ”
Du Long immediately continued: "What the young man said is extremely true, it is really not beautiful to fight at this moment. Let's find a suitable daylight one day, and it's not too late to talk. ”
"That's the same, I don't know if I'm going to fight alone with a group of people from the Poison Dragon Gang, or will a group of people from the Poison Dragon Gang go heading out with me alone?" Li Zhongxuan smiled playfully.
Du Long's smile also brightened a little, this kid actually made a joke at the moment, and he must be in a good mood.
However, it is extremely normal to be able to treat yourself so politely and in a good mood.
He smiled at Li Zhongxuan and said, "Young Xia is really good at joking, we didn't know each other last time." Now that they're sitting at a table, they're friends......"
"Oh, since we are already friends, why is this brother next to me already pressing his hand on the handle of the knife? and the master of smelling the cypress knife and smelling the fragrance, yesterday he said that he would only bring a dozen people, but today he actually brought two or three hundred people to greet me, I didn't expect me to have such a big face!" Li Zhongxuan's face sank, and he looked at Du Long in front of him and continued: "You must have made plans to bring knives and guns today, but it's a pity that the wine in the bowl is gone." ”
Du Long finally had a smile on his face, but he heard Li Zhongxuan continue: "Gang Master Du, look at this bowl of bamboo leaves in front of you, I don't know if it's a toast or a punishment?"
