Chapter 253: The Mountain Dragon King's helplessness
It's late at night.
The lights were still on in the room of the gang leader in the 'Six Dragons Gang', and the 'Dragon God' did not sleep, and there was no one else in the room, only he was drinking tea alone. The golden tea soup was poured into the azure Ru kiln (imitation) cup to dilute the brightness and add the ordinary, this ordinary seems more natural, more peaceful and warm, "Dragon God" picked up the teacup and sniffed the tea fragrance and then drank it all, followed by closing his eyes and enjoying it very much, a cup was over, "Dragon God" poured another cup and drank it again.
"Help!" a middle-aged man hung his head outside the door.
"It's Zhonglu, come in. "The man is none other than Ouyang Zhonglu.
Ouyang Zhonglu entered the house.
"Sit. "The 'dragon god' gave way.
Ouyang Zhonglu did not sit.
"Are there any dead or wounded brothers?"
"The sneak attack with the crowd is broken by each one, our side only seriously injured six people, lightly injured thirty-one people, and the brothers who did not die have all stopped bleeding and bandaged," Ouyang Zhong said.
"Good. "The dragon god nodded, and drank the cup of tea.
"Youfan has been picked up, except for him, Blazing Sun, Bingyue and the others have all been killed, and the 'Armor-Piercing Blade' has also been taken. Ouyang Zhonglu said.
"Write this account for now, how is the condition of the Ghost Sail's injury?" 'Dragon God' asked.
"Right now, Youfan is being taken care of by his female apprentice Tan Huizhen, his injuries are not too serious, and he will be raised for a few days. β
"Do you know who did it?" asked Ryujin.
"The tiger of the 'Inner Governor's Mansion', the seven leopards, the guard of Wu Jingguo, the 'four-eared old man' and Zhao Wei of the 'Dragon Guard'. β
The 'Dragon God' nodded and said, "These people have joined forces with Youfan, and they have not been unjustly defeated. β
"I'll take my brother to settle accounts with them. Ouyang Zhonglu said.
"It's late at night, go back early and rest, you can't do it openly in the capital for the time being, let's go see Youfan together tomorrow." β
Ouyang Zhonglu didn't move, and the 'Dragon God' drank another cup of tea, seeing that Ouyang Zhonglu still didn't move.
"I used to put things on the back burner when I didn't think about it, and maybe I had a good way to sleep when I got up. "'Dragon God' said.
Ouyang Zhonglu still didn't move.
The 'Dragon God' smiled faintly, ignored him, and drank another cup of tea to himself, Ouyang Zhonglu still didn't move, he looked at the 'Dragon God', his eyes were empty and dull, as if he was looking at something more than ten miles away. A pot of water was quickly drunk, and the 'Dragon God' controlled the bottom of the tea in the cup, slowly put the teacup down, and looked back at Ouyang Zhonglu's eyes, which were a pair of eyes full of vicissitudes, and there seemed to be no color in his eyes, nor black and white, but only vague gray, dull, and heavy.
"Alas~~~~~" Ryujin sighed.
Ouyang Zhonglu finally smiled, this smile was unusually bleak, and then he slowly and heavily knelt down. "Gang leader, mole...... The subordinates found ....... β
Unexpectedly, the 'Dragon God' nodded and said, "Get up." β
"Helper!" Ouyang Zhonglu didn't get up.
"Get up and speak. "'Dragon God' said, Ouyang Zhong stood up, and 'Dragon God' said: "Do you know why I sent you to investigate the traitor?"
Ouyang Zhonglu said: "The gang leader is taking care of the faces of his subordinates, and his subordinates are dull and didn't know the gang leader's intentions until today...... I'll get rid of him with my own hands and don't embarrass the helper. β
The 'Dragon God' shook his head and reached out to take the purple clay pot in front of him, poured out the old tea leaves and replaced them with new ones, and then filled the kettle with water, the water boiled through his hands, and the 'Dragon God' poured most of the pot of water into the purple clay pot, washed the tea and poured it out, and brewed another pot before he said unhurriedly: "How much do you know about Lou Xiaolou?"
Ouyang Zhonglu replied: "Lou Xiaolou, twenty-four years old, Wei Ciyun's right-hand man, the owner of the 'Puhuayuan' to which 'Qifeng Building' belongs, and the head of the seven building owners, has a good appearance, good martial arts, changeable personality, kind face and cold heart, especially good at flattery, and it is rumored that he is good at grinding mirrors. β
The 'Dragon God' nodded and said, "Are you willing to be your daughter-in-law?"
Ouyang Zhonglu was stunned for a moment, he never expected that the 'Dragon God' would say such a sentence, and he was stunned and said: "The sin of the dog is to die ten thousand times, which is not much. β
The 'Dragon God' smiled faintly and said, "It's not that serious, there is an old man's precedent, how can I favor one over the other?"
Ouyang Zhonglu said: "I don't dare to compare with the old man." β
The dragon god said: "You only say that you are willing or unwilling to marry this marriage, and you don't need to pay attention to other things." β
Ouyang Zhonglu's sleeves trembled, and there was a hint of relief on his face full of vicissitudes, and there were tears rolling in his empty and colorless eyes, and he kowtowed hard and firmly on the ground, and said, "But it's up to the helper to call the shots." β
The dragon god smiled and said: "It seems that I can't be idle, I will go to propose marriage for you early tomorrow morning, and we will go later." β
Ouyang Zhonglu kowtowed again and said: "The gang leader's kindness is accepted by Zhonglu, he violated the gang rules and killed Blazing Sun, Bingyue and other brothers, causing Youfan to almost die...... I ......" he said but he got stuck and couldn't say any more.
The dragon god said: "If you want to deal with it according to the gang rules, why should you be asked to investigate? Not to mention that confiding the secrets of the gang to his wife and children's family is not a serious crime but not death, and it is not against the gang rules to do so." β
"Helper!" Ouyang Zhonglu's eyes couldn't help but flow out of his eyes anymore.
The 'Dragon God' sighed and said: "You and my brother have been taking care of each other for many years, and the 'Six Dragons Gang' can have more credit to you today, I have no children in public and private, I can't let you die too, not to mention that he can't save his dead brother even if he disposes of it." β
Ouyang Zhonglu was speechless, only kowtowed again.
"Get up and sit down, just talk, this pot of tea is bad. The 'dragon god' laughed.
Ouyang Zhonglu got up and sat opposite the 'Dragon God', the 'Dragon God' washed the cup again and poured the tea, no longer saying a word, just sitting quietly drinking tea in the middle of the night, Ouyang Zhonglu accompanied the 'Dragon God' to drink cup by cup.
Early in the morning, no wind. The red sun is rising, the sun is clear and sprinkled all over the earth, and it is a little brighter and the winter in the capital is drier and colder. The morning shops on the street have already opened, some light the stove and set up the oil pan to fry the fritters, some boil a pot of tea eggs in front of the store, and some are set up a big pot to cook bowls of steaming noodles, each shop is sitting in a sedan chair driver, coachman, coolie, merchant and other poor people, the shop is relatively small, often three or five people are sitting in a room, so some people sit on the long bench outside and know how to shiver and wait for this mouthful, the shopkeepers are still suspicious of few people shouting loudly to buy and sell.
A middle-aged man walked from the side of the street, different from the busy shops and the appearance of the customers who were frozen and shrunk together, the middle-aged man was dressed quite thin but not afraid of the cold, with a smile on his face, walking leisurely and calmly, greeting the surrounding shops from time to time.
"The dragon gang leader is early, the freshly fried steamed buns are fragrant and crispy, and the dragon gang leader has two sticks?" the old man who sold fritters shouted when he saw the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man was the 'dragon god'.
"Uncle Li's business is prosperous, so I won't eat it today. The 'dragon god' laughed.
"Old man Li, who eats such greasy things in the early morning? How good is it to eat a bowl of hot noodles in the cold on this day, Dragon Gang Master, come, Auntie invites you to eat a bowl of mutton noodles to drive away the cold." "The aunt who sells noodles greeted the 'dragon god' warmly.
"Thank you Aunt Zhang, I will try Aunt Zhang's craftsmanship another day. "The 'Dragon God' clenched his fists and laughed.
"Xiaolong, come and kill two at night, I just bought a good high crushed one yesterday, and I didn't want to drink it until you tasted it." "The business was quite deserted, and the old man who sold bean juice shouted when he saw the 'dragon god' from afar.
"Old Zhao Tou, the leader of the Dragon Gang himself is the one who opened a tea house, is there any good tea? Will it be rare for your tea leaves? You better make your bean juice well. The shopkeeper of a steamed bun shop smiled.
Old man Zhao also felt speechless, and was a little embarrassed, but the 'Dragon God' smiled disapprovingly: "Uncle Zhao plays chess well, and his skills in making tea are better, no matter how I brew those tea leaves, I can't make as fragrant as Uncle Zhao, and tonight I will inevitably trouble Uncle Zhao." β
Old man Zhao was overjoyed and said: "Where is it, my wife went early, and the three sons also died in the hands of the 'Golden Rider', if I am the only one who goes in and out every day, you don't want to live in my house for a long time." β
The 'Dragon God' smiled: "Then I will bother Uncle Zhao more." β
"Okay, okay, come early in the evening, Uncle will give you pancakes to eat." β
"Definitely, definitely. "'Dragon God' smiled and greeted the shopkeepers, the guests gradually walked through the long street to another street, turned the street and connected to it is a street that is not too wide but unusually prosperous, the street is not long, the buildings on both sides are lined up, the lanterns are hung one by one, the carved eaves are painted, the curtains are painted, and even the words on the plaque are extremely exquisite, the layers of light curtains are covered, the bead curtains are half rolled up and the households are slightly opened, each household reveals the young women who are busy washing, and occasionally a few rays of spring light can be seen in a few houses through the window, and the fragrance of fat powder fills the whole street, this scene adds a little heat to the capital in the cold morning of winterγ Go further in, several buildings are taller and taller, more exquisite, the environment is more quiet, the decoration outside the building is no longer so explicit, but a little more restrained atmosphere, "Dragon God" walked with his hands in a largest, simple and elegant and most elegant building group stopped, and then chose the main entrance to step in, the door hung on a plaque is written 'Qifeng Building' three big characters.
