Chapter 124: Sleepless Night
"Not bad! It's a good trick to be stupid, no wonder there is a lot of fanfare today, it turns out that he wants to confuse us and others! The head of the Zhang family stroked his mustache, as if Zhang Liang had reborn and seen through all the schemes.
"What do you mean?" Shi Yin asked shouting the nickname of the head of the Zhang family.
"Huh...... Brother Shi, I'm afraid that this is Ning Rong's true purpose," the head of the Zhang family was not stunned by his attitude, pointed to the broken knife and said: "On the surface, I want to threaten us and others, but secretly, I am afraid that I just want to warn us, and when the Yellow Turban Thief Army arrives, this knife will be the last reliance of you and me!" ”
"By him? To kill the enemy? That's not a dead end! Shi Yin pursed his lips and said disdainfully.
"Brother Shi is right! He just wanted to say, let us die with Gu Cheng! ”
Wang Chao took the words and continued, and lit the note with a solemn expression, I really didn't expect this guy to hate it so much!
……
Nanfu, Wang's family.
The same deep courtyard, guarded by guards, a living room is lit red, and several figures loom.
Wang Lang's face was pale, he was a man in his thirties, and since he took over the family business in his father's hands, he was unsmiling all day long, he was rigorous, and he was also resolute in his work, and he was often arbitrary, so that many people were afraid to touch his brow.
Wang Lang looked at the heads of the families on the left and right, the shopkeepers of the time-honored brands, and his face was also solemn.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Cao Jun's movements have been investigated, they are really packing their things, and it looks like they are leaving Gucheng!"
"Master Wang, Cao Jun is in the east, south, and north of Gucheng these days, overhauling civil engineering, rectifying the military, and looking at a posture of being ready to fight, how can you say that you will retreat?"
"Everyone has their own business, so there is no need to narrate the news of the Yellow Turban Thief, right? 300,000 Yellow Turban Army, do you think 3,000 Cao Army can defend this small valley city? Wang Lang pursed his lips disdainfully.
"That ......"
"Humph! It wasn't that Wang Lao's fox eyes were blind and Ning Rong's thoughts were broken, which made him want to have the idea of escaping! ”
"However, Cao Jun is gone, where should we go in Gucheng? The yellow turban thief is a predator, once the city is broken, then we ......" Someone spread his hands worriedly, and said with a gloomy expression.
Oh, yes!
At that point, everything that has been in business for decades will be reduced to dust.
"Geek! Ningrong! Are you so ruthless? Hum! I'm going to meet you for a while! Wang Lang stood up suddenly, grabbed the rusty broken knife, looked around with a resolute face, and walked out.
"Master Wang, where are you going?" Everyone hurriedly asked.
"County office!" Wang Lang didn't reply.
"County ...... Cannot! If it was ......" before the words were finished, Wang Lang took the words.
"If you don't pay it back, then you don't pay it back! You are waiting here, the valley city will not die! ”
Wang Lang's voice was not high, but his tone was extremely strong, and he turned around and strode out.
Everyone looked at each other, looking at Wang Lang's back in awe, quite a heroic man who was gone and never returned.
……
At the same time, in a hidden restaurant, a foreigner wearing a rich and noble Baina shirt was sitting cross-legged with an old man in black, holding the broken steel knife in his hand and actually roasting meat.
The barbecue made a sound, and the golden hot oil continued to flow along the lines, but before it was about to tick on the stove, the old man could always turn the barbecue on the steel knife just right, and continue to roast the hot oil into the mutton.
"Hot?" The old man said quietly.
"Nope! Not hot! The rich man wiped the sweat from his forehead and concentrated on roasting the mutton in his hands.
"Old man, your body and bones are not as good as your young people, and you only know that you are still alive when you roast the fire, hehe......" The old voice said meaningfully.
"Hehe, Old Sun, you're laughing, your body is very tough!"
"Really?" Sun Lao suddenly raised his head and asked, his eyes flashing with an imperceptible light.
Belch?
Li Qiang was stunned for a moment, he just said it in passing, and was suddenly a little confused by Sun Lao's question.
"Of course!" Immediately, Li Qiang nodded affirmatively.
Elder Sun shook his head, and the old man's voice continued to sound, asking, "How do you feel now?" Is it hot? ”
Li Qiang touched his forehead, and suddenly felt as if it wasn't so hot.
"Huh...... You! It's still the same as when I was a child, everything is shown on my face, which is not good! Old Sun squinted his eyes and taught.
"Yes, what Elder Sun taught is that when my father died, he instructed Qiang to ask your old man if he was undecided."
Your father?
Old Sun's face suddenly showed a taste of nostalgia, "Old Man Li is also a stubborn guy, back then...... Hey! Do not say! Do not say! Let's say, you kid won't just accompany the old man to barbecue, right? ”
Li Qiang smiled and said: "I can't hide anything from your old man, the power of the North Mansion of Gucheng has been weakening over the years, but the South Mansion has risen rapidly to keep pace with it, this is all your old handiwork, right?"
Hehe, now everyone in Gucheng knows that the second king is the first, Sun Li is the second, and the third, so Sun Lao doesn't want to fight for the first position? ”
"......" Sun Lao glanced at Li Qiang lightly, did not speak, and focused on roasting mutton.
"Uncle Sun, don't worry, Qiang doesn't have that ambition, it's just ...... Now this valley city is full of weirdness, the little nephew can't see it clearly, and he still hopes for his uncle's guidance! Li Qiang was not embarrassed, but sincerely asked for advice.
He just didn't understand, with his understanding of Sun Lao, why would he be willing to succumb to second place and give up the right to speak in Gucheng to the Wang family?
His father was the same back then, he once asked, but his father just smiled and didn't answer, and now he ...... The same goes for Sun Lao!
"Ning Rong this person, what do you think!" Sun Lao asked straight to the point.
"Hmm...... Geek Ningrong! Li Qiang pondered for a moment and replied: "This is Cao Mengde's comment on this person, and his behavior is indeed weird, but ...... His ruthlessness is obvious to all, and this time ......"
Li Qiang shook his head and said, "The little nephew doesn't know his intentions, if he really retreats, then our family will be like a broken shadow and turn into nothing!" ”
"How are you doing?"
"If the Cao army retreats, Gucheng will definitely be trampled to the ground by the Yellow Turban thieves, so it's better to ...... It's better to withdraw! Li Qiang gritted his teeth and said, staring at Sun Lao intently.
"Withdraw? Hehe...... Anyone can go, but we can't! Once we leave this place, you and I will be rootless trees, no source of water, and the only way to die! ”
This......
Li Qiang looked at Sun Lao in confusion, and his smiling eyes suddenly made him excited, and he instantly sobered up a lot.
Yes!
The people can go! But they can't! Once they get out of this city gate, the only thing they can rely on is themselves! By then...... They will be lambs to the slaughter!
"How's that to be?" Li Qiang asked anxiously.
