Chapter 395: See Regular Customers Again
A column of officers and soldiers suddenly came at the intersection of the road ahead, and when Canglong and the others saw it, they immediately stopped, and retreated to the side of the avenue to avoid it. Just in case, Canglong also used his hand to protect Fang Ying's body......
However, these officers and soldiers did not focus on Canglong and the others, and they seemed to have a heavy responsibility. I saw that among the officers and soldiers, you could see the arrested prisoners scattered together, and it seemed that they were escorting these prisoners back to their homes and passing through here.
"What kind of people are these, they look like they have committed a crime...... Fang Ying was a little puzzled and said softly.
The "Three Hip Hop Brothers" seemed to know them a little, and the hippie leaned into Fang Ying's ear and whispered: "They are all robbers here like us before, but they are unrepentant, and they are still committing crimes, but I didn't expect to be arrested by the people of the government today......"
"Hmph, if they are caught, they deserve it, who told them to fall into the grass and be thieves?" Hongyun said without hesitation.
"But it's weird......" Hippie suddenly said as if sensing something was wrong.
"It's only natural for the government to catch thieves, what's wrong?" Canglong asked.
"When our three brothers were thieves, the government never took care of us, and even if they did, it was just for show...... "These officials have always only known how to squeeze people's money, and they have simply ignored the security of this place.
"You think it's strange for the government to catch thieves, so what do you think isn't weird?" Hongyun asked again.
"It's just not right anyway, it's definitely not that simple......" Hippie wondered. But I just couldn't tell what was wrong, so I responded casually.
Canglong thought for a moment and said, "I've heard of it before. The thieves in this area have become more and more rampant in recent days, and they have been making more and more trouble, and I think this must have a great impact on the government's ignorance, so what the hippie said is not wrong; There is no need to suspect anything...... The purpose of our coming here is not to watch people catch thieves, so let's find a good place to live first. Prepare your luggage, recharge your energy, and return to Yixian Gate another day is ......"
"Yes, yes, I forgot about important things...... hippie said, scratching his head. "The restaurant is not far from the front. We'll be there a few more steps—"
As a result, the "Three Hip-Hop Brothers" are ready to lead the way again. However, before they had taken a few steps, a familiar voice suddenly stopped everyone in front of them.
"Canglong hero, we meet again-" The voice was more muddy and vicissitudes, and after Canglong heard it, he felt familiar. So he looked up and looked straight ahead.
The person who stood in front of everyone and stopped Canglong turned out to be Ge Wei, the leader of the beggar gang. And beside Ge Wei. Xue Feichen and important figures such as Chang Feng, Yang Jinkang and Lu Gongsheng are all there.
Hongyun had also seen them with Canglong before at the Jishi Conference, so while she recognized these people, she also felt a lot of surprise, she didn't expect that after the Jishi Conference separated, they would meet again so soon, and they were still in Juming City, which she had never been to before.
Canglong and Hongyun had the same idea, he recognized Ge Wei and Xue Feiji at a glance, so he saluted and said, "Canglong has seen Gang Master Ge, Xue Daxia, and all the beggar gang disciples-"
"I didn't expect us to meet here again, it's really fate......" Ge Wei didn't change his usual boldness, and said loudly, "Thinking that two days ago at the kendo conference, Ge and Canglong Daxia had three moves, it can be said that I can't get enough." Canglong Hero's 'Canglong Palm' and Ge's 'Eighteen Palms of the Dragon' are equal to each other, both heroic and humble, Ge admires it very much——"
Gang Master Ge laughed, what Canglong said and did was just a habit on weekdays, so there was no need to praise it...... It's just that it is an honor to be able to meet Gang Leader Ge and Xue Daxia and others again in this Juming City today, and it is very fortunate to have a fate...... Canglong still said politely, "Two days ago, at the Jishi Conference, I really had something important to do, so I had to leave in a hurry. At that time, there were countless people who were hindered by the challenge, including many of the four saints and seven heroes of the martial arts, if it weren't for Ge's efforts to exonerate Zai Xia that day, Zai Xia might have really delayed important things, so Zai Xia still thanked Ge Gang Master here......"
"Hey, why should Canglong Hero be so restrained, since he is a friend of righteousness, he doesn't need to be too restrained-" Ge Wei, as the leader of the beggar gang, is bold and straightforward, and his cautious style is a little different from Canglong's words and deeds.
Canglong thought of the matter of the officers and soldiers escorting the prisoners just now, and seemed to understand something, and then asked Ge Wei: "Dare to ask Gang Master Ge, does Gang Master Ge understand about the official government of Juming City escorting the thieves and prisoners in this area just now?"
Ge Wei smiled and said bluntly: "You have noticed it by Canglong Daxia...... Actually, these thieves are the disciples of our beggar gang to punish the bullies in this area, simply help to subdue them, and then hand them over to the government. Didn't we mention it before when we were in the Jishi Conference, thieves are rampant in this area, and our beggar gang will work together to control ......"
Now Canglong and the others understood, not that the government here had suddenly changed, but that the people of the beggar gang helped the people of the government to capture the thieves in this area, no matter how irresponsible the government was, there would be no response if the thieves sent it to the door.
Canglong listened to Ge Wei's narration and praised: "Okay, Ge Gang Leader is worthy of being a hero in the martial arts, punishing the evil, and everyone in the world admires him!"
"Canglong Hero has said it, and the chivalrous things you did in your last life, Ge is still far away......" Ge Wei said this, although he also knew in his heart that the Canglong in front of him was not the real Canglong Hero, but since the Jishi Conference had a martial arts competition, he decided that this Canglong was no different from the legendary Canglong Hero, one of the three old-timers.
Canglong also knew what he meant, he just smiled quietly and didn't respond to anything.
Ge Wei paused for a moment, then changed his tone, and said suspiciously: "However, Ge has really felt something strange in recent days - in fact, before the Jishi Conference, the beggar gang had been engaged in the work of eliminating traitors in this area, although many righteous thieves had been arrested. However, the banditry in this area has not abated. I waited for the beggars to help the disciples in the martial arts, and the most we did was to help the government arrest the thieves, and finally the execution order. It's still in the hands of the government. In the past, there was the power of our beggars to arrest them, and then there were officials who executed them according to law, why the rampant state of thieves in this area has not diminished at all, Ge has also been really curious in recent days, thinking that there may be a little strange in this......"
Canglong listened to Ge Wei's words, but he didn't think much about this issue, he thought in his heart. But it was mostly Fang Ying's return to the mountain: "Escorting Miss Fang back to the mountain, you may encounter many dangers along the way, and He Tong's sneak attack before is the best example...... If you can get along with the beggars. Let the people of the beggar gang secretly help Miss Fang escape the disaster, and the task of escorting Miss Fang back to the mountain will be much easier and safer, so that Senior Lan will also rest assured......"
So, Canglong glanced back at Fang Ying. Then he looked directly at Ge Wei and saluted, "Ge Gang Master." I refused to tell the origin of the affairs before, but it was because of many things...... Now the entrusted person is willing to come to the Tao, and he will explain the situation in the next - two days ago, he hurriedly left from the Jishi Conference, just to accept the commission of the head of the ancient tomb sect, Lan Gulan, to escort Fang Ying, the daughter of the head of the Yixian Sect, Fang Zhongtianfang, back to the mountain. Under the trust of the head of the land, he was entrusted. ”
"You mean...... Do you want to escort Fang Zhangmen's daughter?Fang Zhangmen and Lan Zhangmen, this ......" Ge Wei is one of the Seven Heroes of the Martial Arts, the same as Fang Zhongtian. Therefore, I also know that Fang Zhongtian and Lan Gu once came out. Now that Canglong said that he would escort Fang Ying back to the mountain, Ge Wei was really shocked.
"This girl is Fang Ying, the daughter of the head of Fang—" Canglong pointed out to Ge Wei again.
Fang Ying saw it. I haven't figured out the situation yet, and I don't know why Canglong introduced himself to the leader of the beggar gang. However, along the way, Fang Ying completely trusted Canglong, and the person in front of him was the leader of the Beggar Gang and one of the Seven Heroes of the Martial Arts, so Fang Ying was just a little stunned, but he didn't suspect anything.
"But...... Why did Canglong Daxia inform Ge about this, or did he say...... What does Canglong Hero ask of Yu Ge?" Ge Wei was also shrewd, and guessed what Canglong meant, so he asked again.
Canglong smiled, and echoed: "Gang Master Ge can indeed understand the meaning of the next, and he does need one or two important things in the next......
Immediately afterwards, Canglong took two steps forward and whispered in Ge Wei's ear: "Forgive me for being rude, this time I really have something important to ask for...... Boss Lan also discovered a little before that there were others secretly coveting the daughter of Boss Fang, and there was something wrong. The head of the Lan family asked Zai to investigate the matter in secret, but yesterday he was almost plotted by the wicked and poisoned by him......"
When Ge Wei heard this, he was a little shocked, and he responded softly: "Even Canglong Daxia, you have such a high martial arts ......."
Canglong nodded, and continued to say secretly: "The origin of this group of mysterious people is not simple, and they have never heard of it in the rivers and lakes, and they are only vicious and elusive, there must be something big behind them...... If Gang Leader Ge can help in the eyes of Zai and the face of the Fang Sect and the Lan Sect, he will be grateful and ...... And inform the true identity of the Ge gang leader and even the world......"
As soon as these words came out, Ge Wei glanced at Canglong with strange eyes, he never expected that Canglong would use this as an exchange condition for help. Indeed, Ge Wei and the people of the world wanted to see Canglong's face, understand his true identity, and help Canglong escort Fang Ying back to the mountain, which was not a difficult task for the beggar gang. The disciples of the Beggar Gang are widely spread in the Central Plains, no matter how big the power behind the sinister villain who covets Fang Ying is, he will never be the opponent of the Beggar Gang.
Ge Wei thought for a long time, looking at the somewhat immature and firm eyes under the Canglong mask, he seemed to sense something. Immediately afterwards, Ge Wei nodded and said: "Okay, how can Ge say that he and Fang Zhangmen are also old friends, just think of it as helping Fang Zhangmen, helping Canglong Daxia, and giving you a favor...... When the time comes, Ge will send a powerful person to assist you......"
The conversation between the two was very soft, and no one else heard it. After Canglong and Ge Wei talked about each other, they slowly walked back to Fang Ying and the others. After Ge Wei finished speaking, Xue Feichen on the side was also deeply puzzled, so he asked: "Brother Ge, what is the so-called matter of Canglong Hero, what do you want to ask for?"
Ge Wei chuckled lightly and said casually: "It's nothing, it's just that I secretly sent some helpers to help Canglong Hero escort the daughter of Fang Zhang's family back to the mountain......
Ge Wei only said this, and did not tell Xue Feichen the reason for helping.
In order to prevent Xue Feichen and the others from continuing to ask, Ge Wei turned his head and changed the topic again, and said to Canglong: "Canglong Hero, the last Jishi Conference did not distinguish the winner or loser, this time you and I met again in Juming City, you see ......"
"What does Gang Leader Ge mean, do you still want to compete with Zaixia?" asked Canglong.
"That's not necessary, when people meet, they always use swords and guns to deal with them, it's not good......" Ge Wei said with a smile, "Heroes see the same thing, so why don't friends meet and talk about other things?"
It turned out that Ge Wei meant to drink and have fellowship with Canglong. Canglong also understood the meaning, and responded with a smile: "Okay, let's have two drinks with the Ge Gang Master and the beggars and the disciples and heroes to make a relationship-hippie, now it's your turn, didn't you say that you would take us to a good and cheap restaurant?" Canglong greeted the hippie again.
"Yes, yes, yes, big brother, how dare we slack off? The three of us brothers will lead the way......" Hippie was a little nervous and trembling when he saw a big man like Ge Wei for the first time......
When the old people reunited, they had to drink and talk, and it didn't take long for the "Three Hip-Hop Brothers" to lead everyone to the restaurant they mentioned earlier......
The scale of the restaurant is not small, the card is written with the four big characters of "Qiyuan Restaurant", just walk to the door, you can hear the pleasant sound of the guqin from the restaurant. As the "Three Hip Hop Brothers" said before, there is chess and piano entertainment in this Qiyuan Restaurant, and the cost is fair, and it is a good and cheap place.
"There are really people playing music in this place, and the rhythm is not bad......" Hongyun, who is good at music, couldn't help but say when he heard the melodious sound of the guqin.
"If you have a qin, there must be a chess ......" Fang Ying said with a smile, "I really want to go in and have a look-" Fang Ying looked quite excited, completely forgetting what Canglong and Ge Wei said about herself just now.
"Gang Master Ge, please first-" Canglong still said politely.
"You don't have to be so polite, Canglong Hero, these etiquette things are mostly used by literati and ink writers, we rough people don't understand these ......" Ge Wei still advanced into the restaurant, and said as he walked, "It's like this music and rhythm, those literati talk wildly, and we coarse people can't understand it, hey......" Ge Wei said and said, a little like self-deprecation.
When I entered the restaurant, I saw a young woman in purple playing the guqin. The woman's appearance is slightly charming, but it is also a unique beauty, and most men will be moved when they see it. No, the "Three Hip-Hop Brothers" who just entered the restaurant were about to drool when they saw it.
But then, the three brothers had to slap each on the head - it turned out that the three of them stood in place and watched the beauty in a daze, blocking the way of the red cloud behind. Looking at the three brothers in a daze, Hongyun slapped one person without saying a word, and had a straight face, looking like a resentful woman.
The three of them had consulted Hongyun before, and they didn't dare to provoke her more, and when they turned around and saw Hongyun's freckled resentful face, they didn't dare to say anything, and immediately walked forward without looking back. And Fang Ying couldn't help laughing out loud when she saw the funny looks of these people on the side......
Canglong, Ge Wei, and Xue Feichen picked a big table in the middle, and ordered good wine, ready to tell the story with wine. But Fang Ying didn't sit with them, and she didn't like to care about a bunch of big men's gags.
The "Three Hip-Hop Brothers" were still staring at the woman playing the piano, Fang Ying leaned over at this time and asked, "Three uncles, didn't you say that there is a chess reception here?" Where is it, why didn't I see it?"
Hippie turned around and said, "The chess reception is upstairs, but playing chess on there costs money, if you have to play Miss Fang......"
Fang Ying didn't care so much, in the past two days since she came out of the ancient tomb, she either encountered dangerous things, or slept in the wild, and she had to look at Canglong's cold iron mask all day long, she was almost bored to death. After entering Juming City, she could finally have a good time, and Fang Ying went upstairs without thinking.
"Eh, Sister Ying, you wait for me-" Hongyun was afraid that something would happen to Fang Ying going up alone, so he followed closely behind...... (To be continued......)
