Chapter 8: The Silent Mirror
Zhu Qiqi can't bear it anymore!
She didn't want to endure it anymore, after "Laba", the leaders and cadres of "Dafengtang" died and fled, and disasters happened one after another, and if it continued like this, the defeat of "Dafengtang" was imminent!
I don't know when it began, there was always a man in a high-crowned ancient costume whose face was four or five points whiter than flour, and even his eyelids were rolled over, stalking and monitoring her every word and deed, every move.
Who is this fan-headed boy who is obsessed with lust? Look at his playful white face, his hands have not been polished with much hot and cold, rough and polished, fine skin and tender meat, and eighty percent of the eagle dogs who work for Cai Jun's dog officials in the imperial court.
And couldn't care about so much, Zhu Qiqi returned to his "Huangli Hall", took out the knife in the treasure box for many years, and scraped it with his thumb and index finger, the blade trembled out with an angry tiger groan, she held the knife close to her arms, and felt her body temperature gradually warm.
This "angry knife" is a relic of Zhu Qiqi's deceased husband "horizontal knife immediately" Peng Nu (see the volume of "Great Wind Flag"), only at this time, she will have incomparable courage, just like her husband is still beside her.
She was stunned for a while in the "Huangli Hall", she wanted to take something away, but in the end she didn't take anything away, only told her two henchmen Sister Furong and Sister Feng to take care of the door, and walked to the "Crazy Lion Hall" with the "angry knife" in her arms.
After the "Wolong Hall" was burned to the ground by Buber, the "Crazy Lion Hall" became the important place of the "Dafeng Hall", and it was also the center of the new power.
On the way, passing through the long street, the rain splashed on the ground has turned into ice particles, dazzling under the warm sunshine that is rare in the early spring of the "Northeast".
Before Zhu Qiqi arrived at the "Crazy Lion Hall", he heard the sound of quarrels coming from the hall. Those were two of the four oldest and highest-ranking deacons of the "Great Wind Hall" who were arguing.
ββIn almost every gang organization, there will be a few "old men" who follow the founder to fight the world side by side, make countless achievements, and retire without nostalgia for power, these people are very headaches and unhappy for the successor.
"Fisherman's Cultivation and Reading" is one such person.
Lord Zhao, Master Sun, Shopkeeper Qian, and Li Yuanwai, who followed the old dragon leader Yun Feiyang in front of the saddle and behind the horse, blocked the east and killed the west, and there are only a few old brothers left so far.
Of course, Master Zhao is not a real "adult," he is just a fisherman; Master Sun is not a "master," but only a woodcutter chopping wood; the money shopkeeper is not a "shopkeeper," but a farmer who farms; as for Li Yuanwai, he is at most a teacher who looks like a foreigner.
From the "Three Tigers of Kanto" below, the brothers and sisters in the hall have great respect for the "fishing and farming", and these four archdeacons jointly hold the tokens of the organization's successive generations of leaders to inherit and give orders-
- "Dragon's Head Stick"!
Because the Xiao family, which has the strong backing of the "Fugui Group", has always had intrusion activities on the territory of "Dafengtang" in "Popopo", and the shopkeeper Qian and Li Yuanwai were regarded as important generals and stayed in the front of the town (see the volume of "Seven Nights of Snow"), while the other two deacons who stayed in the main hall, Lord Zhao and Master Sun, had serious differences on the matter of "dragon head sticks" due to the differences in their respective positions.
The former boss Meng Dongtang was suddenly "poisoned" by the "Western Xia" people, and the second boss Xiong Dongwei was "ordered to be in danger", but every time he issued an important gang rule, he did not show the "dragon head stick", which inevitably caused some embarrassment and embarrassment of being incorrect and unsatisfactory.
However, when Master Sun, who was secretly instructed by Xiong Dongwei, proposed to hand over the "dragon head stick" jointly kept by the "four major deacons" to the new master Xiong Erye, he was strongly opposed by another archdeacon, Lord Zhao.
The reason given by Lord Zhao is: "The cause of death of Master Meng is unknown, and the 'dragon head stick' is related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of brothers and sisters in Tangkou. β
Two old comrades-in-arms and old buddies who have been friends with life and death for many years, a cardamom girl who was secretly sent to his humble firewood kiln for the new master, and a great cause created by the old dragon head, in front of Xiong Dongzhen, they fought for red ears and couldn't get along.
Xiong Dongwei touched his bald head, squinted his lion eyes, and fell into a tiger skin chair, listening to the argument of the two deacons with great interest, without saying a word. There are two guest chairs on the left and right of the seat, and each sits an distinguished guest of different nationalities in strange costumes, who knows nothing about the arguments in the hall.
The door of the "Crazy Lion Hall" is half-hidden, Zhu Qiqi is dressed in white and filial piety, carrying a knife, walking through the corridor and entering the inner hall.
As soon as Zhu Qiqi came in, the two archdeacons in the hall who were like roosters fighting involuntarily stopped arguing and returned to their respective seats in a huff. Maybe it's because they're afraid that women will look down on them, or maybe it's because they are tired from the morning to the noon, and they are a certain age.
As soon as he saw the widow of the martyr who was respected and loved by everyone in the hall, Second Master Xiong immediately jumped up, poured tea for Zhu Qiqi, and spoke to Zhu Qiqi with a "seventh sister-in-law":
"Seventh sister-in-law, these days, you have really worked hard.
The senior brother has been unable to get along with the 'party item' people all these years, and the 'Yipintang' and their people are too unkind, even the second lady Xiaobei and Xiaonizi will not let go, which is really indignant for everyone and gods!
The old master is old, and he is competitive, but he is not in the prime of life at all, how can Zhuge Ying say that he is his own nephew, what does it matter if he takes a step back? Why bother to make trouble and defy the law and lose both?
The thirteenth is even more wrong, I don't know which rumors he listened to, and he tried to murder my second brother Xiong again and again, if it weren't for Lord Cai's insight and bringing him to justice, I wouldn't be able to see the seventh sister-in-law today!
The third child must be saved, but this kind of thing involves a member of the imperial court, and he must not be reckless! Everyone acting rashly will harm him. The people outside don't know what's going on, slandering me for fear that the third child will come out and take my power, it's a big joke! If you want to save him, can your heart be more anxious than mine? Dongye is my fellow disciple! You are so anxious to save the third child, do you want to harm him? Or do you want to invite merit to the top position????
Zhu Qiqi looked at Xiong Dong's smiling face and smiling belly, thinking in his heart that when this long face was laughing at the gentle and humble hypocrisy, a stream of blood suddenly splashed out, I don't know what it would look like?
"Seventh sister-in-law. Zhu Qiqi was about to start, when he suddenly heard a hoarse voice in the corner, and said flatly: "You have a murderous aura." β
This sound from outside the sky seemed to be in Zhu Qiqi's condensed killing spirit and murderous aura, and a thunderclap shook in the sky.
The person who spoke was the man whose face was six or seven points whiter than flour, and who was dressed in ancient clothes, and he stood in the corner, like a piece of furniture, motionless, and it was difficult to detect his existence without looking closely.
Xiong Dongzhen's weather-beaten face looked a little sad, and he sighed: "Hall Master Wen, this seat can still trust the seventh sister-in-law." β
Master Wen?!
Zhu Qiqi's heart was shocked, then shocked, and three shocks, and he suddenly remembered who this stranger who had been following him all day long, as if he had crawled out of the ancient tomb?
"Lingnan", "Time-honored Brand", Wen Sishu!
I have long heard that "Xiaoliang King" Chai Ruge dispatched two "hall master-level" characters to walk in the "Dafeng Hall", one is the "Six Dao Hall" hall master "Six Dao Reincarnation" Xie Liudao, and the other is the Wen family's "hall level" figure and "Four Books" master Wen Sishu!
Zhu Qiqi immediately wisely let go of the hand of the "angry knife" in my arms, with a character like Wen Sishu, wanting to kill Xiong Er is simply a fool's dream!
The courage to sacrifice does not mean that you have to die in vain!
At this time, there was a gradual change outside, and it was just the right time for the afternoon sun, and suddenly a silent snow began to fall.
The snow gradually became lighter, thinner, faster, and denser.
It's not as cold as it was in the middle of winter.
It's deep.
It was so deep that the snow finally became rain, freezing rain.
Occasionally, there are still flakes of snow, and occasionally there is a meter of sunshine, which is the "Kanwai" weather in early spring, when the snow is fast and the weather is clear.
"What?!Visitor?!" Xiong Dongwei threw the greeting post on the ground without seeing it, and waved impatiently to Lang Xin, who ran in to report the news: "Didn't you see that the second master was talking with the seventh master? What birdman is visiting?
- Now that the second master Xiong, who is a big boss and a general, his status has changed, and his shelf has also grown, not everyone can see him casually!
For example, today, in the outer hall of the "Crazy Lion Hall", there are no less than 200 local celebrities, gang leaders, gang leaders, gate lords, yamen officials, and leaders of the Chamber of Commerce who are waiting to meet Xiong Erye.
These four guests may not have the ability and fame to be earth-shattering and crying ghosts, but they each represent a huge force that cannot be moved even if they are as domineering as Xiong Dongjing.
- They represent the "Tianluotan" supported by the "Mongolian" people, the "Jinyi Gang" instigated by the Khitans, the "Haotian Sect" controlled by the Jurchens, and the "Yipintang" controlled by the "Dangxiang" people.
With the sudden rise of Xiong Dongwei in the "Liaodong" region, the major foreign enemy forces have put the bargaining chips of invading the Central Plains on Xiong Erye, who also has different ambitions, and have sent representatives to carry out subversive conspiracy activities such as contacting, wooing, negotiating, showing goodwill, and recruiting surrender to Xiong Dongjiao.
Except for these guests who are beneficial, beneficial, and beneficial to their future, other idlers, etc., Second Master Xiong is too lazy to see it!
Yes, Lang Xin picked up the worship post that was thrown on the ground by the master and climbed out in a panic.
Then, like Lang Xin, another big disciple who has been highly used by the main hall recently, Gou Fei, hurriedly squeezed in the same thing, and raised his hands above his head: "Big boss, someone who came called himself Chen Yuan, said that you have seen this thing for the elderly, and you will agree to see him!"
When Xiong Dongzhen saw it, he immediately went to order: "Open the main gate, please Chenyuan eldest prince!"
The four distinguished guests of different races present were all taken aback, because when they came, Xiong Dongzhen had just opened the corner door of the "Crazy Lion Hall".
Zhu Qiqi was also very curious, she used the disguise of the action of drinking tea, her eyes looked through the white gauze sleeves and Wen Sishu's poisonous old-fashioned gaze, she finally saw clearly the thing that made Xiong Dong frightened first and then respectful, and his attitude became a 180-degree turn-
It is a mirror in which silence is better than sound.
