66. Cold Smoke and Green Fog (3)
Zhao Jin suddenly said: "Helper, Elder Qu, my subordinates think that this matter is a bit strange. ”
Qin Chuan said: "What's weird, please tell Brother Zhao to hear about it." ”
Zhao Jin groaned: "My subordinates once heard the gang leader talk about that Shangguan Xin was captured by Mu Changfeng. With the status of the above official letter, it is very likely that he is carrying his own 'cold smoke and green mist' on his body, and now these poisons are bound to fall into the hands of the Heavenly Dao Alliance. ”
Qin Chuan nodded and said, "According to Brother Zhao's guess, most of the people who came to kidnap the Sang Duo Lord last night are still masters of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and they may not have anything to do with the Shangguan family in Jiangnan!"
Elder Deng shook his head and said, "Although what Lord Zhao said is not unreasonable. But if it is really evil, the sky is full of clouds, why not use 'wishful pasta' and 'astral smoke', why do you have to use the 'cold smoke and green mist' of Yuxiao Villa?"
Everyone, you say a word, I say a word, gossip, inconsistent, but inconclusive for a while.
Speaking of which, they all stopped, and their eyes shot towards Qin Chuan's face.
Qin Chuan pondered: "No matter who the other party is, this 'red sleeve move' will inevitably be a vicious battle. With that man's light skills last night, only Elder Qu and I in this gang are enough to fight him, and no one else can help. But Elder Qu is already old, how can he let him go out in person?"
At this moment, I suddenly saw Huang Bao rushing forward and said, "Qiyu Gang Master, Miss Yu and Brother Qu Chengfang are outside, saying that there is something urgent to see you!"
Qin Chuan's heart moved, his eyes lit up, he nodded and smiled: "Okay, okay, I understand the intention of the Jade Girl and Brother Qu! Brother Huang, let them wait in the back garden for a while!" Huang Bao responded and bowed out.
Qin Chuan looked at Qunhao, his eyes were like electricity, and he said loudly: "At the moment of the great enemy, this seat has decided to go to the 'Red Sleeve Move' alone, and Elder Qu is still in charge of the overall situation at home. The three elders of Wu, Deng, and Wang, as well as Lord Zhao Helm, Master Zeng Helm, and Master Liu Tang, each led their disciples to secretly guard around the 'Red Sleeve Move'. Prepare more hidden weapons, and the blade should not be exposed, listen to my orders, and act when the opportunity arises. Remember, don't reveal your identity, don't hurt the innocent, and don't alarm the government!"
He saw that the heroes were all responding and obeying, and he became more and more determined in his heart, and he was more and more determined about how to guard the 'red sleeves' everywhere and how to respond to each other's rescue. Assign it in detail again. He had already asked Elder Deng for a map of Luoyang City in the morning, and he was naturally no stranger to the terrain around the red sleeve move.
Everyone suddenly saw the helper's relaxed face, and they couldn't help but feel curious, and they felt that there was a majesty in his orders, and no one dared to disobey them, and they took the orders one by one.
At this time, Qiu Dalun and Yuan Fu listened to Han Suo's detailed description of the night situation in the side hall, and they knew the origin of this letterhead, and they heard Qin Chuan allocate people, and immediately hurried back to the hall.
At that time, only Qin Chuan, Elder Qu, and Han Suo were left in the hall. Qin Chuan nodded slightly. said to Qiu Dalun: "Brother Laoqiu, you take Brother Yuanfu to find out the origin of this letterhead first, and see if you can gain something." If there's any news, come to see me at the 'Red Sleeves'. Brother Han. You lead all your brothers to spread eyeliner in the city to prevent the enemy from making trouble again! Remember to prepare more carrier pigeons and shooting stars, and contact them in time. Don't do it lightly!" Han Suo bowed.
Before Qiu Dalun left, Qin Chuan pulled him aside and said in a low voice, "Elder Wang and his wife are looking forward to their son-in-law. If you are interested, I will go back!" Qiu Dalun's face turned red, scratched his head and said, "It's all up to the helper's arrangement!" Qin Chuan smiled: "How about choosing a day to get married after you're done for a while?" Qiu Dalun blushed and nodded.
After Elder Qu waited for Qiu, Yuan, and Han to come out, he gave a thumbs up, and said with a smile: "The gang leader is worthy of being a young hero, he is confident, and if he is in command, he has the demeanor of everyone!
Qin Chuan smiled embarrassedly, scratched his head, and said, "Elder Qu is falsely praised! The kid is assigned indiscriminately, obviously a blind command, and he is smiling and generous! If there is anything inappropriate, please ask the elder to mention it, your old man can't sit back and watch the kid make a fool!" Elder Qu nodded and smiled: "The helper is serious." Your assignment seems to be fanfare, but in fact, there is another mystery. Nice, nice!"
The two laughed a few words, and Qin Chuan frowned and said, "Has Elder Qu already guessed the intention of Brother Cheng Fang when he saw me?"
Elder Qu smiled faintly, reached out and touched his beard, and said, "This kid really has true feelings for Sang girl." Alas, I'm afraid that the only thing I'm afraid of is that the falling flowers are intentional, and the flowing water is ruthless. Let him go!"
Qin Chuan smiled and said, "If Lord Sang Helm can really marry Brother Qu, it will really be a good thing!"
Elder Qu stroked his beard and smiled: "Do your best and listen to the will of heaven." It's just that everything is up to the helper!" Xiang Qin Chuan bent down slightly, said goodbye and withdrew.
Qin Chuan followed Huang Bao to the back garden, and saw Yi Wanyu and Qu Chengfang waiting on the railing in the pavilion next to the stream.
Qu Chengfang immediately bowed down to worship. Qin Chuan waved his hand and said, "Brother Qu doesn't have to be polite. What do you have to do with me?"
Before Qu Chengfang could answer, Yi Wanyu had already smiled and interjected: "Brother Chuan, Brother Qu volunteered to go with you to the 'Red Sleeve Move' to rescue Sister Sang!
Qin Chuan laughed in his heart: "Brother Qu is usually dignified and steady, and he is capable, but when he mentions the Sang helm Master, he twists and pinchs, and is as shy as a little girl." It seems that he is really in love. In fact, when he was talking to Elder Qu just now, the two of them had already guessed Qu Chengfang's intention, smiled slightly, and said to Yi Wanyu: "Sister Yu came to me, could it be that this is also for this matter?"
Yi Wanyu glanced at him, obviously disgusted that he asked knowingly, bit his lip, and said: "Brother Chuan, I know that you have decided to break into the 'Red Sleeve Move' alone, and you also know that I have sisterhood with Sister Sang." I pondered for a night and came up with an idea, but I have to cooperate with Brother Zhao Jin and Brother Qu and others, can you see if you can make it?"
She slowly said the plan in her chest to Qin Chuan. Qin Chuan and Qu Chengfang glanced at each other and nodded in unison. Qin Chuan saw that Yi Wanyu had made up his mind, and he pondered for a long time, and sighed: "Sister Yu, I have to wronged you again this time." Well, when you entered a brothel in the past, you were secretly protected by many high-ranking people like your stepfather, so this time I will protect you. I will ask the three elders to cooperate with us and act according to the plan. Alas. You're really a middle-aged Zhuge to even think of such a weird idea. Admire, admire!"
At the time of the day, on the main street of Luoyang City, there was a sudden chaos in the crowd, and pedestrians on the road dodged to the side of the road. I only heard the sound of whipping and slapping, and people neighed for joy, but it was a gorgeous cart inlaid with beads and jade. When the passers-by in Luoyang City saw it, they all said: "This must be the carriage of the rich and noble, everyone is still hiding from it." Don't bump into it, you have to break your muscles and bones, even if you kill someone, you deserve it!"
In the blink of an eye, the carriage arrived downstairs of the largest brothel in the city, the "Red Sleeve Move", and the coachman slammed the reins, only to hear a long neighing of horses, and the cart slowly stopped.
The coachman was a tall, thin bearded man with a hat on his head, carrying a horsewhip. Jumped out of the car, crossed his hands on his waist, stood outside the gate of the "Red Sleeve Move", and shouted: "Hey." Is there anyone who can pant for breath, quickly call Mother Bai to come out to greet the guests!"
At this time, there were very few customers in the brothel, and all the turtle slaves, prostitutes, thugs, and big teapots heard the movement and turned their faces to look out of the door. A turtle slave with a crooked hat walked up to the bearded man. Squinted at him, then at the cart, and turned his head sideways to ask, "Hey." What for?"
The big man snorted, pointed a thick palm full of black fur at the turtle slave's nose, and scolded with a smile: "It's Chen Xiaoqi, Ha Luha! His grandmother's Chen Xiaoqi, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you don't even know Lao Tzu!" I saw that he was born with a pockmarked face, big eyes and ears, full of beard, and a rough look.
The turtle slave was Chen Xiaoqi, the second master of the red-sleeved move, he heard that the big man was speaking the half-salty and half-light Zhongzhou official dialect, but with the local dialect of Shanxi, and felt that this person was quite kind-faced, déjà vu, scratched his scalp, looked the bearded man up and down, and hesitated: "You, you are ......."
The bearded man snorted and said angrily: "Your grandmother's, you really forgot all your old friends! Gang is from Datong Mansion in Shanxi, think about it again!"
Chen Xiaoqi's eyes lit up, he patted his head, and shouted: "I remember, you are Brother Ji from Datong Mansion in Shanxi, Brother Ji Kunji!"
The bearded man laughed, stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around Chen Xiaoqi's shoulder, and said loudly: "That's right, the gang is Ji Kun, you Brother Ji! You dog, you finally recognize the gang, it's only been three or four years, shouldn't you forget the old Ji?"
Chen Xiaoqi's mind was spinning, and when he remembered the identity and origin of this Ji Kun, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, his face was full of joy, and he shouted repeatedly: "Brother Ji, a rare guest! No, it should be a distinguished guest, a distinguished guest." Why haven't you come to Luoyang for so long, but where have you developed? By the way, shouldn't your brother come to give money to his brother again?"
The bearded man Ji Kun patted Chen Xiaoqi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Old rules, invite Brother Xiaoqi to drink flower wine at night, what do you say?"
Chen Xiaoqi smiled and said: "How can you always let Boss Ji entertain, you should let your brother be the east!" After a pause, he put his mouth close to Ji Kun's ear, pointed to the carriage, and said in a low voice: "Is it really a girl from Datong Mansion?
At this time, the old bustard heard the voice, his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, as if he was full of worries, and said with a calm face: "Xiao Qi, who is this person?
Chen Xiaoqi turned around and smiled: "Mother Bai, you have made a fortune this time! The authentic girl from Datong Mansion in Shanxi, the first-class goods, were personally sent by this Uncle Ji!"
When the old bustard's mother heard the words "the girl of Datong Mansion", her eyes lit up, and she approached charmingly, pushed Chen Xiaoqi away, and smiled at Ji Kun: "Ah, this morning this morning the yard is full of magpies calling." I was wondering which noble person would come to the door, but it turned out to be Ji Ye, your boss! Speaking of which, I haven't seen your brother for several years! Hehe, the noble man came to the door, and he was unwelcome, unwelcome!"
Ji Kun snorted, clasped his hands in front of his chest, looked up at the sky, and said, "Mother Bai, they are all acquaintances, and the post will get straight to the point." In this way, let's still follow the old rules, as long as the gang has this number, one or two silver less, the gang immediately turned around and went to Yihong Courtyard, there is no need to discuss!
Mother Bai changed color slightly, the fat on her face kept jumping, and she said in a lost voice: "Fifty thousand taels, my father-in-law! You, you are the wronged mother of me, you, you really dare to ask for a price!"
Ji Kun snorted again, sat on a bench with a golden knife, and put the hat on his head again.
Mother Bai hesitated slightly, then walked to the carriage, stretched out her hand to lift the curtain, probed into the car, and couldn't help but let out an "ah" and exclaimed. She looked at the people in the car in a daze, and she was stunned.
Ji Kun waited for a moment, became impatient, and no longer answered Chen Xiaoqi and the rest of the brothel people, Huo Di got up from the bench and strode to the front of the car. He pulled Mother Bai away, stretched out his hand to put down the curtain, straightened his chest to block Mother Bai's sight, and sneered: "Mother Bai, since you are too expensive, you should go to Yihong Courtyard, it is expected that the boss of the family still knows the goods." Only 50,000 taels of silver to buy a genuine, fake Datongfu girl, or a yellow flower girl, hehe, that is, three or two months, you can earn back with interest! If you meet a generous benefactor, maybe you will return all the principal and interest in a month!"
As soon as he spoke, he jumped into the saddle of the carriage, raised his whip, and rode his horse to the road.
Mother Bai came back to her senses at this time, hurriedly opened her arms and stopped in front of the car, and said with a smile: "Wait, my big brother Ji, Uncle Ji, it's easy to discuss! Fifty thousand taels is fifty thousand taels!" stepped forward and stretched out his hand to grab Ji Kun's arm, and his face sank to Chen Xiaoqi and the others, and reprimanded: "Xiao Qi, why don't you invite Uncle Ji to the flower hall to serve tea, and serve the old lady with good tea and snacks!"
Ji Kunha laughed, threw the whip into the car, leaned over to the car to take a burden, put it on his shoulder, and scolded the woman in the car: "Stinky girl, don't cry anymore! Your grandmother's is crying and crying all the way, and she is annoyed to death! Now the uncle has collected the money, and he has finally settled up in the roots." Looking back, Da Lu smiled and said: "Mother Bai is really a person who knows the goods! The old rule is that the gang only needs the silver ticket of Chase Bank, one thousand taels and one piece, the deed of sale and the contract, and the silver ticket will be signed immediately when you see it!"
Mother Bai thought to herself: "I haven't seen this guy for many years, but this virtue hasn't changed at all, it's still this stinky problem!" but said with a smile on her face: "Don't worry, everything is according to the season." It's just that I don't have so many silver tickets on hand for the time being, so please be patient with Master Ji for a while, and I'll find someone to exchange them at the money bank!" He turned his head and instructed the two turtle slaves: "What are you doing in a daze? Send the carriage to the backyard with the beauty." Well, people will take it to the flower hall first, and I will personally check the color, and see if it is not a virgin?"
Everyone in the brothel heard that the new girl asked for a high price of 50,000 taels, and the white mother, who had always been shrewd and stingy and loved money like life, did not even return the price. (To be continued......)
