Chapter 167: Apricot Forest (4)
Qiao Feng said: "Brothers, today I got to know Brother Wang, and I am very happy. Brother Wang is a bold person, his martial arts are still above me, and his reputation of subduing the four evil people by himself must have been heard of by everyone, so I will introduce everyone to him, and everyone will be good friends in the future. ”
Wang Jing walked up to Qiao Feng, arched his hand and smiled at everyone: "The beggars are all heroes and heroes, it's an honor to see you today!" Everyone saw that Wang Jing was such a master, and they also knew that the beggars were helping everyone, and they were secretly proud in their hearts, and their faces eased a lot for a while.
Qiao Feng walked up to the white-bearded and white-haired elder with an iron hammer in his hand, and said, "This Elder Song is the patriarch respected by everyone in this gang. ”
Wang Jing hugged his fists and said, "Long Yang! Long Yang!" Elder Song didn't dare to hold it up, so he returned the salute.
Qiao Feng introduced Wang Jing to the short and fat old man with a steel rod in his hand, and said, "This Elder Xi is a master of this gang. More than 10 years ago, I used to ask him for martial arts lessons. Elder Xi and I can be said to be half teacher and half friend, and the affection is very deep. ”
Wang Jing smiled and said, "I see! Elder Xi is fighting with the turmoil, which is a bit good!"
Elder Xi was upright and ashamed: "Don't dare to be! Wang Shaoxia's martial arts are beyond the reach of the dust!"
Qiao Feng introduced Elder Chen and Elder Wu again, and at this time, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, and there were many people running in the northeast corner, and the sound was noisy. Some asked how the gang leader was, some asked where the traitor was, and some were indignant when they were imprisoned. It was the elders of the meritorious service, the elders of law enforcement, the helmsmen of the rudders of great benevolence, great courage, great gifts, and great faith, who led a large number of people to help them all at one time. Each man has a myriad of words to say. But in front of the gang leader, no one dared to speak arbitrarily.
Qiao Feng asked everyone to sit down according to their positions. said: "Our beggar gang can afford to be looked down upon by friends on the rivers and lakes, and it has been known as the number one gang in the martial arts for more than 100 years. Since there are many people, there are many people. It's inevitable that everyone's ideas can't be the same. Just explain it and discuss it carefully, everyone is still a good brother who loves each other, and everyone doesn't have to take it too seriously for a momentary strife. ”
When everyone heard this, Qiao Feng was really benevolent and righteous, kept his promises, and felt more at ease.
At this time, an old beggar with a sallow face sitting on the right side of Qiao Feng stood up. said: "May I ask the four elders of Song Xi, Chen and Wu, what does it mean that you ordered someone to lock us up in a small boat in Taihu Lake?" It is Bai Shijing, who is an elder in law enforcement, and he has always been iron-faced and selfless.
Elder Song was the oldest, his old face turned red, and he said, "This ...... This one...... Well...... We are good brothers who have shared hardships and lives and deaths for many years, and naturally there is no malice...... White...... Bai Law Enforcement looked at my old brother's face, so he didn't have to mind. ”
Bai Shijing said coldly: "Elder Song said that there is no malicious intent. This is not the case. Elder Chuangong and I were imprisoned in three boats in the middle of the Taihu Lake, and the boats were piled with firewood, grass and sulfur. He said that if we wanted to escape, we would immediately set fire to the ship. Elder Song, isn't this malicious?"
Elder Song was speechless. Full of embarrassment.
Bai Shijing pointed to a man and said sharply: "You tricked us into getting on the boat." It is said that it is a call of the Lord. What is the crime of falsely spreading the orders of the gang leader?"
The man trembled with fear. He said in a trembling voice: "The disciple has a low position, how dare he do this to deceive the master......?" It's all ......," he said, his eyes fixed on Quan Guanqing.
Bai Shijing said: "The master of the whole helm ordered you to fake the order of the gang leader and deceive me to get on the boat, did you know that this order was fake at that time?"
Bai Shijing sneered: "Li Chunlai, you have always been a tough guy who dares to act, isn't it?
Li Chunlai's face showed a strong color, his chest straightened, and he said loudly: "Elder Bai is right. I, Li Chunlai, did something wrong, whether I killed or chopped, let it be punished, the surname Li frowned, and he was not a good man. When I conveyed to you the command of the helper, I knew that it was false. ”
Bai Shijing said: "Okay, since you admit to falsely passing on the gang leader's orders, is there a reason?"
Li Chunlai glanced at Quan Guanqing, who was kneeling on the ground, and then at Qiao Feng, and said loudly: "My subordinates violated the gang rules and deserved to die, and the reason for this is not for my subordinates to dare to say." After speaking, he stabbed the knife into his heart, Wang Jing's eyes were sharp, and he flicked his fingers and flicked his knife away.
Wang Jing said: "Since you are not afraid of death, why are you afraid to tell the truth? Since Qiao Gang Leader said that you should be light, and you are not the mastermind, why should you ask for death?"
Li Chunlai said loudly: "I believe the words of the master of the whole helm, you ask him how it is!" He was saved by Wang Jing this time, and he didn't want to die again.
The two elders of Gong Chuan and Law Enforcement looked at Quan Guanqing, Qiao Feng walked in front of Quan Guanqing, stretched out his hand and patted it, Quan Guanqing said: "The matter has come to this, there is nothing that cannot be said, four elders, let's talk about it." ”
Elder Wu said, "Gang Leader Qiao, we have discussed with all of us to abolish your position as Gang Leader. In this major event, the four elders of Song Xi, Chen and Wu were all involved. We were afraid that the two elders would not allow it, so we tried to imprison them. This is for the sake of the great cause of the gang, and it has to take a risk. Today's momentum is unfavorable, and you have the upper hand, and we will be at your disposal. Wu Changfeng has been in the beggar gang for 30 years, and everyone knows that I am not a villain who is greedy for life and afraid of death. As he spoke, he threw the ghost head knife far away, clasped his arms in front of his chest, and looked like he was not afraid of heaven and earth.
Wang Jing sneered and said, "Elder Wu is not deceiving himself, as far as I know, the abolition of the leader of the beggar gang requires the convening of a meeting of the beggar gang with the consent of all the elders?
When everyone heard this, they all felt that it made sense, yes, what a big deal to abolish the gang leader, without going through the beggar gang meeting, this is no different from committing chaos, everyone wanted to understand this verse, and their hearts were ashamed. The four elders looked hot and speechless.
Bai Shijing said loudly: "Brothers, the Qiao gang leader succeeded the previous generation of Wang Gang leader as the leader of the gang, and he did not use any improper means to get this position. Back then, the Wang gang leader tried his three major problems and ordered him to make seven major contributions to the gang, so he taught him with a dog stick. That year, the Taishan Conference, the gang was besieged, the situation was very dangerous, all thanks to the Qiao gang leader created nine strong enemies, the beggar gang turned the corner, many brothers here are seen with their own eyes. In the past eight years, the reputation of the gang has grown, and everyone knows that it is the credit of the Qiao gang leader. Qiao Gang Master treats people benevolently and fairly, and we can't support it yet, why do some people actually have lard and are blinded to rebellion? Quan Guanqing, you say it in public!"
Quan Guanqing said loudly: "Although the behavior of a few of us and others does not conform to the rules of the ancestors, what they do is for the sake of the foundation of the beggars!"
Qiao Feng said: "You tell me carefully, why am I, Qiao Feng, sorry for my brothers, you want to plot against me?"
