The city of Zhongzhou in Luoxian County is a little south, and the heat is unbearable at the beginning of May. The west of the city coincides with the market today, and the lively place is full of people and noisy. In front of a muddy wall in the northwest corner of the bazaar, there is a crooked old soaphorn tree, whose branches are bent and vigorous, dense and lush, and swaying to support a cool and shady acre of acres. Lying on the dry ground below were four or five unkempt little beggars, all six or seven years old, with ragged clothes and dirty shoes. At this moment, he was bored catching lice and napping, and suddenly one of them suddenly shouted: "Get up, get up!"

When everyone heard this, they got up and greeted them with a smile on their faces. I saw that three little beggars of the same age suddenly squeezed out of the crowd in front of me, and one of them was sweating, and scolded from afar: "Fuck, Hengsheng Buzhuang is really fucking stingy." ”

"Boss Chen, how many are you going to arrive?" everyone asked in a mess.

"Ah...... Phew!" The beggar crooked his mouth and spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm, raised his eyebrows and scolded: "I want a hammer, the old men waited there all morning, and in the end they only gave a dozen dollars, which is not enough for us to eat!"

A tall and thin little beggar next to him was indignant and echoed loudly: "That is, how can Hengsheng Buzhuang also be a well-known trader in ten miles and eight towns, and he refuses to give more than a few small money, I think we will simply block his mother's door and see how he still trades." When everyone heard the praise, they all shouted, "Go away!"

The beggar at the head was annoyed for some reason, raised his foot and kicked the thin and tall man to the ground, and scolded with his fingers: "Do you want to kill everyone?

The little beggar didn't care about it, turned his face and smiled: "I'm lucky Chen Xiaofeng, when I came back, I picked up an old pedant's waist bag, everyone can take a look, maybe you can eat meat buns today!" Everyone was overjoyed, and for a while, beautiful words and sycophants flew around, and they slapped him all over.

Chen Xiaofeng said with a sharp voice: "Alas, alas, retreat some, retreat some!" When everyone retreated a little, he took out a palm-sized red brocade bag from his arms, the appearance of the old edge was worn badly, and he looked like an old man, and he swept it back and forth in the palm of his hand, and shouted: "Big portion, there is a treasure!" Everyone shouted in unison, "Take a look!"

"Bang la" poured out, and saw dozens of coins and a broken bronze fragment of two or three inches on the ground. "Huh!" everyone was disappointed and angry, and scolded "Dead poor ghost!" "Rotten king!"

Chen Xiaofeng had pinched it several times before, and he really expected this fragment to be a piece of silver, but he didn't expect it to be a piece of broken copper and iron. For a while, I didn't give up my heart and put my hand up, took it in front of my eyes and turned around to look at it carefully, and saw that this fragment was twisted and painted with dense red strange patterns, which seemed to be very mysterious and complicated. The Tao is similar to the ghost painting talisman bought by those fake Taoist priests in the Chengxi Manifestation Temple, but this painting is extremely subtle, although there are many patterns on it, it must be fine, and there is no clutter. It's a pity that no matter how good the painting is, it's just a worthless piece of broken copper, and it's useless. At that moment, I filled it in my mouth and took a few bites, and I almost broke my teeth, and my heart gradually cooled down for most of it. He turned his hand and stuffed the bronze fragment into the hand of the tall thin beggar next to him and said, "Monkey, you have sharp eyes, look at what kind of gem and chalcedony it is!"

The monkey patted his chest and smiled: "Boss Chen, you are the right person! When my family was not in trouble, the old lady was the shopkeeper in the pawnshop, and his old man once told me that the older generation of poor and exquisite people would put a stone and tile in their bags for Tujili, and hold up the façade heavily, and by the way, leave a thought for themselves, commonly known as that...... What is it called "want to ...... stone". To put it bluntly, the wallet is empty, and I'm afraid of another joke....... Hey, I didn't say it, the picture on this is really beautiful, why don't you play tricks on me!"

Chen Feng scolded with a smile: "Get out, get out, get out! What do you want it to do, Lao Tzu will keep a thought." As he spoke, he snatched the bronze fragment and put it in his pocket, and pointed to the money on the ground and said, "Go buy a few cakes, and I will go to Boss Xiong to pay homage to him today."

This bear boss was a guy who ran a boat in his early years, not only can he speak well, he is also very good at doing things, and he is also very good at kung fu, and he doesn't know what shit luck he handed over, and he got into it at a young age, managing a commercial street with a fart oil crotch, and there are nearly 100 people under his younger brother, not to mention the little brother. Not to mention that this is only the follower of Qin Wuye, an outer disciple of the Baisha Gang, this signboard is already very big.

The Baisha Gang was originally called "Baisha Bangguo", so the land was light and honest, and I don't know when someone actually omitted the word "Bangguo" to "Bangguo" or "Gang", and the people in the rivers and lakes liked "Bang" and hated "Bang", and over time they were called "Baisha Gang". There are seven states in the surrounding area, and the Baisha state is the second-to-last state, only slightly better than the Yingshan state. It is said that there is also a fairy gate above the state, each will breathe fire and spit fog and fly empty, and those who have good things will make up this matter into a drama and a storytelling in the wine shop, and the rumors are so divine that they don't know if it is true.

It was only said that Chen Fengxiao and the little beggars ate some coarse cakes indiscriminately, so they hooked their shoulders and rushed to the Baisha Gang station in the south of the city. All the way without it, turn a few streets and alleys and see a giant tree standing in front of you, with a black background and gold like a sail pennant floating on the top, which is full of embroidered "Baisha Bangguo" four strong characters, with the wind churning and violent, so not majestic.

Chen Feng smiled and changed his playful face, and solemnly scolded: "Don't make trouble!" Everyone was suffocated, and they all bowed their heads silently and followed carefully. After a while, he turned to the front, and then he saw a small door with hanging flowers in the high wall in front of him, and the door had two double axes, which was almost the same as the ordinary mansion of a rich family, and only on each side stood a man in a strong suit with a knife. Thinking that Chen Fengxiao was familiar with the two men, Yao Yao shouted: "Brother Hu, Brother Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time!"

One of the black-faced men saw that it was him, and shouted and scolded: "Little Devil Chen, tell those dirty worms behind you to get away! ”

Chen Feng nodded with a smile and grinned, and asked everyone to find a shade corner to rest and wait. Approaching the black-faced man, he took out a string of money from his arms, stuffed it directly into his hand, and smiled with low eyebrows: "Brother Hu, you don't care about villains, don't blame us stinky flowers, you and Brother Liu buy a bowl of tea on a hot day." ”

The black-faced man turned his hand and took it, nodded and smiled: "It's still Chen Xiaozi who can be a man, look at these little ghosts since you became the family, there are really some people who look like them." Yes...... Phew, the previous Zhao Asi deserved to be chopped off. ”

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, it's all up to a few masters to take care of it. Chen Fengxiao bowed his hands modestly.

The black-faced man waved his hand and said, "Alas, my own brother, don't say these irrelevant things! Today, the school starts class, and I want to wait there for Fourth Brother Xiong, you can go over directly!" Chen Feng smiled and nodded and hurriedly thanked him, and didn't dare to ask more about other steps before stepping into the door.
