Chapter 429 Deputy Helmsman
Cui Tieshan, the leader of the Angry Dragon Gang, is known as "Immovable King Kong", and his kung fu is extremely solid, and he has a thousand catties of falling method in the local area, and it is not easy for three or two people with similar cultivation to shake him. In addition, he is good at Donkey Kong finger power, holding stones into powder, and kneading iron into mud, which is very domineering.
Cui Tieshan's weapon is not strange, it is a square iron card with a square size, called the mixed yuan card, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, with blades on all sides, with handles inside, barbs outside, which can be blocked and smashed, can be cut and chopped, and the barbs on the top are good at locking and holding weapons, which is a must in the martial arts.
Cui Tieshan is extremely spicy, but he didn't ignore Meng Bai's situation because of his attention to Dragon Blood Wood, he may come out at a glance He is full of energy, internal and external sense, and he is already a congenital person. And judging from the relatively strong vitality outside the body, it should not be a breakthrough for a long time. Therefore, he blurted out unconsciously, "The innate realm you broke through today?"
"Yes," Meng Bai heard this, but he thought in his heart that someone who knew the goods finally came over. He immediately replied, "When my subordinates returned with the dragon's blood, they were intercepted by the young helmsman of the Yuanlong Gang, but due to their lack of strength, he robbed the dragon's blood. At that time, I hurriedly chased after it, but because it was not as light as the young helmsman of the Yuanlong Gang, it was getting farther and farther, I was anxious, but somehow, suddenly the ancestral trick was through, and the innate door that I had been unable to figure out opened open. Next, I was successfully promoted to the innate and caught up, and after a fight, I defeated the young helmsman of the Yuan Dragon Gang and recaptured the dragon's blood.
It's just ,......"
Speaking of this, Meng Bai could pause.
"It's just what?" Cui Tieshan asked curiously.
"It's just that when we fought, we let a piece of the dragon's blood wood drop with some fruit. At that time, I was a little angry in my heart, so I also dealt a little heavier to the young helmsman of the Yuanlong Gang, and cut off one of his palms!"
"What is it to cut off a palm, dare to grab food in our hands, this son of Old Man Lei is also arrogant, and it is time to suffer a little. It's those fruits, it's a pity!" Cui Tieshan didn't hesitate for a moment, and waved his hand directly.
"Helper, this matter is naturally nothing to us, anyway, the old man Lei doesn't dare to have any big signs with us with the power of a rudder, it's just secretly making a little bit bad. However, for He Fei, this is not a trivial matter. That old man Lei has the smallest eyes, and he will repay him, and his son is the only seedling, I am afraid that he will make a move against He Fei!" On the side, Elder Shi Guangyuan of the auditorium knew Meng Bai's thoughts the most, so he directly opened his mouth and beat the side drum at the right time.
Hearing this, Cui Tieshan, who was in a good mood, also had a slightly solemn face, stroked his beard, and said, "This is really a problem, Lord He Xiang can't stay in the rudder all the time and not come out, this is calculated or not, and it is inevitable that there will be problems." In this way, in a few days, we will discuss it, and when the situation of each rudder is adjusted, let Lord He Xiang also go down and go to a rudder far away from Longzhou to avoid the limelight. ”
"Thank you for your help!" Meng Bai didn't expect that he would achieve his goal so easily, and he was really excited in his heart, and after that, he cautiously replied, "By the way, there is one more thing, on the way back, I met another master of the Yuanlong Gang to intercept him, that person is a one-armed swordsman, not young, with a special silk thread attached to the hilt of the sword, which can remotely control the long sword to kill the enemy remotely, just like the flying sword of the fairy family."
It's just that his strength is not as strong as mine, and I just grabbed the long sword, and then slashed it, becoming an open-mouthed face!"
"Okay, you have made another contribution, that is the Torture Hall Elder of the Yuanlong Gang, although the promotion of the innate has not been long, but the strength is not weak. The fact that you can kill him shows that you are skilled in martial arts. After I go back, I really have to have a good experience, a talent like you, planted in the rudder, is a little aggrieved!" Cui Tieshan was even happier when he heard this, and he seemed to really have a little appreciation for Meng Bai.
The children of the gang, although the congenital master is a man, but Cui Tieshan, as the leader of the gang, has seen a lot. Being able to defeat an old congenital when he was just promoted is not idle, either he is talented or has special exercises. This kind of talent is scarce there.
However, Meng Bai didn't want his own family, which had already been said to be accurate and smooth, to regenerate variables, so he hurriedly said, "The helper is serious, where will he be wronged? Besides, it just happened to avoid the limelight, and when he broke the young helmsman of the Yuanlong Gang, he was too angry in his heart, but after thinking about it, he was still quite afraid. ”
"What are you afraid of, with us old guys in front, you young people, just be bold and rush forward!" Meng Bai's obedient show of weakness made Cui Tieshan laugh and didn't say anything more.
Next, when Cui Tieshan took the dragon's blood wood from Lu Zhongyun's hand, he directly selected one from the red fruit and stuffed it into his mouth.
The heat was rolling, and after experiencing it, Cui Tieshan showed joy on his face, because he clearly sensed that the old injuries in his body had indeed improved. At this moment, Cui Tieshan was naturally more and more happy, and directly ordered to go down and hold a banquet to celebrate. This gang leader personally rolled his eyes, and the rudder owner with little experience may not be qualified to serve on the table. However, Meng Bai was specially invited because of this contribution.
If Meng Bai himself may not want to go, after all, if he says too much, he will lose, and the external traces on his body must be carefully looked for, and he may not be able to find them. The high-level leaders of the Angry Dragon Gang in front of him are all human spirits, and their origins are also diverse and very complicated, and he really doesn't bother to socialize. But at this moment, he is not easy to refuse, after all, the helper clearly wants to praise you, and if you don't give face, you don't know how to lift.
After a banquet, Meng Bai gave full play to his advantages of being young and low-level, and he was cautious in his words and deeds, and he was not out of line. Although it seems a little restrained, there is nothing wrong with it. He himself believes that his performance should still be worthy of the recognition and rest assured of those bigwigs.
After that, Meng Bai stayed in the treasure medicine library for another five days before being summoned by Elder Shi Guangyuan. After entering the secret room, there was no one outside, and there was no need to worry about the ears on the partition wall, but Shi Guangyuan said with a smile, "I'm in a hurry these days!"
"It's a little, but I also know that it's useless for me to be anxious about this, and I have to rely on the elders and other seniors to help worry about it, so I can still hold it down!" Meng Bai replied.
"If you can be stable and rudder, you must be steady, not blind and impatient, so as not to fall into the trap. Shi Guangyuan nodded, and then said, "Okay, you are a smart person, I won't say those superfluous words." Now, make your appointment official!"
"Yes, disciple He Fei listen!" Hearing this, He Fei didn't say a word, and directly knelt on the ground, his posture was very respectful.
Shi Guangyuan's face was solemn, and he said, "Since a few days, you will go to Qingzhou to branch the helm and take over the position of deputy helmsman!"
"Deputy helmsman, this is too high, isn't it?" Hearing this, Meng Bai couldn't help but be surprised. The expectation in his heart was that he would just be an ordinary elder in each hall, and like Ye Dayuan, if he could become a great elder, it would be an unexpected joy. After all, he was unusually promoted from the principal to sit on the incense master, and it has only been more than two months.
"Indeed, your promotion speed, since the establishment of the Angry Dragon Gang, is the first, there is no one before, whether there is no one in the future, it depends on your own efforts. This time, there are many reasons for such a good result. One is the master of our auditorium, he is full of confidence in you, very optimistic, and even withdrew the original Qingzhou helmsman and handed it over to the Ning Wang family in exchange, and the other is that the helper himself has a very good impression of you, and he also pushed it easily. Otherwise, if he dies, he will be the Great Elder of the Outer Three Halls. Shi Guangyuan said again.
Meng Bai heard this, but he had a score in his heart, this hall master who had only seen a few faces, nine times out of ten, he was born in Kunlun, and his true own person came. Otherwise, purely with the prince's plan, he would not be so deadly. After all, even the prince's subordinates are not all completely single-minded, and they compete for power and profit with each other, and there are a lot of dirty deeds.
"The hall master is really valued by his old man, I make a promise here, if I don't come up with a perfect result, I will never talk about the promotion of the chief helm!" Meng Bai was very measured, and only said, the hall master, not the gang leader Cui Tieshan.
Cui Tieshan values it again, but he is not a person all the way after all. At present, on the surface, he does not show any inclination towards the succession to the throne and seems to be neutral. But privately, the real situation is unknown. After all, the human heart is separated from the belly. A lot of hole cards, used at critical moments, are more powerful and more able to make a final decision.
Obviously, Shi Guangyuan is also very satisfied with this, "It's good if you have this heart, just go, you still have to be stable." After all, you, the co-helmsman, are much more dangerous, and there are basically no useful people down there. Also, when you leave this time, go quietly. The reason why your appointment was not carried out in the public like everyone else was to protect you, lest the old man of the Yuanlong Gang Lei find out and intercept him halfway. He can't reach Qingzhou, and he has no problem around Longzhou!"
Hearing this, Meng Bai frowned, and said, "There are only a thousand days to be a thief, where is there a thousand days to prevent thieves?" I think we are taking advantage of this opportunity to secretly reveal the news and calculate the Yuan Dragon Gang. This must be good for us!"
"Are you trying to trick them again?" Shi Guangyuan said.
"Yes, Old Man Lei is arrogant, and it is also because the Longzhou rudder is indeed strong, we have broken him a few times in a row, so he has suffered a big loss, so naturally he can't be arrogant!" Meng Bai nodded and replied in time.
"It doesn't matter if I say it, it doesn't even count if the hall master says it, you have to help the master agree. After all, our three gangs and nine associations are also a big alliance, and we can't do too much with each other. Next year is the triennial battle for the leader, and the gang leader also has the intention to fight for a hand, after all, the Yuanlong Gang is the number one gang, if you can't choose your own family, and you want to make trouble with the gang leader, it will also be a big trouble!" Shi Guangyuan didn't agree in time, and said in a deep voice.
"Then we can capture but not kill, and negotiate terms with them!" Meng Bai paused when he heard this, and then said.
"This is an idea, these days, the gang leader's tolerance for the Yuanlong Gang is a little too much, otherwise, no matter how arrogant Old Man Lei's son is, he will not dare to rob the elixir we found so openly. Shi Guangyuan nodded with a deep groan.
However, Meng Bai couldn't agree with what he said. Because, he knew that this old man Lei had been replaced by Yue Zhenting. If he was still the same gentleman, he would definitely not dare to do this. However, Yue Zhenting is a bold master, what dare he not do?
But this situation obviously can't be told to Shi Guangyuan, so he can only let him follow his own train of thought.
Speaking of the three gangs and nine associations to compete for the head of the leader, the rules are very strange, a total of two parts, one is the twelve gang leaders to compete with each other, the strongest force, only then has the opportunity to be the head of the leader. The second is prestige, this prestige is judged by the strong men of other gangs, the three gangs, each gang has three votes, and each family in the nine associations has one vote, a total of eighteen votes, and the first person in the armed forces must get at least nine votes before he can take office as the head of the army. If the number of votes is insufficient, then you can only be an agent leader.
The total leader and the acting leader, the gap between the two is obviously huge, the total leader, can redivide some interests, and even according to the situation, mobilize other gangs to do things, although it is not possible to say that the three gangs and nine will really condense into a force, but also have a lot of authority.
As for the agency leader, it is completely an agent, and the interests previously delineated cannot be changed, and the power of other gangs cannot be used. In the event of disputes and contradictions between the gangs, there can only be one arbitration, and there is no right to make a final decision. In other words, just a pure name.
The emergence of this situation is actually the result of the participation of the imperial forces, after all, no dynasty wants to see such a huge waterway strength under its command, comparable to the imperial naval army. Although, on weekdays, when it is necessary to transfer grain, it is also very easy to use. But both use and prevention have always been the court's housekeeping skills.
Obviously, for Cui Tieshan, who is in charge of a large group of rivers and lakes, he definitely does not want to be a nominal leader. Although he may not be able to really overwhelm the crowd and become the first person in the armed forces of the Three Gangs and Nine Associations, since there is hope, he must want to lay all the foundations.
Shi Guangyuan felt that Meng Bai's idea could still be tried, so he decided to go and talk to the hall master and the helper, so that Meng Bai's departure time would have to be delayed for another two days. After all, even if you agree, this preparation will not be good for a while.
But this Meng Bai is not in a hurry, he can clean up the hidden dangers here, and he can also have no troubles at all, and he can devote himself to the operation of the Qingzhou rudder.
