Chapter 1 The Old Nine of the Xu Family

Next Chapter

In the southwest of Xiajin County under the rule of the Daimyofu, there is a village, and nearly half of the hundreds of households in the village are surnamed Xu, so it is named "Xujiazhuang". This Xiajin County is the hometown of Ma Renyu, a famous general of this dynasty, and the style of martial arts prevails, among which Xujiazhuang is the leader. But all the adult men in the village have some means to make the gun stick, and there is a great character in the village, which makes Xujiazhuang famous far and wide.

At noon on this day, the sun was shining, there was no cloud, and there was no cool breeze. The villagers in the village were probably also roasted by the sun, and they all shrank back home, and there were few people in the huge Xujiazhuang. Occasionally, a few naughty children sprang out, tiptoed to the adults who were enjoying the shade of the trees, lifted the fan that someone else covered their faces, and fled in all directions with loud screams. Only the man who was disturbed by his dream was left scolded.

At this time, on the bluestone road that runs through the village, the two of them came in a hurry. The taller man wore a blue robe with a cross-collared band, and the hem of his shirt was tied around his waist. His head was loosely tied in a knot, and he wore leather boots with double broken edges on his feet. He was about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a square face, broom eyebrows, dark skin, and very strong.

The shorter one wore a white-rimmed black robe, and although it was not gorgeous, it was neatly tied. He is the same age as his companions, but he was born delicate and white, but his body is slightly thin. The two men were sweating profusely, and they hurried to the east of the village.

"I heard a few days ago that he was seriously ill, and Mrs. Xu asked for famous doctors all over the place, but there was no improvement, why did he get better all of a sudden?" The white boy muttered as he walked.

"What do you do with that bird? It's important to save people! "The black boy looked solemn, if it was a moment and a half, Ma Tai let people unload their arms and chop their hooves, we would lose our righteousness and make people laugh!

Hearing this, Xiao Baimian nodded, and suddenly said, "No, I heard Mother Liu in the west of the village say yesterday that after he woke up, he didn't even recognize Mrs. Xu?" He also said that he was a demon king of the mixed world, and the Jade Emperor wanted to take his life, and read it on the merits of Xu Taigong, and only accepted two souls and six spirits, so that he could be a fool? ”

As soon as he heard this, the black boy took a sip: "You forgot about last year?" ”

The little white face suddenly shuddered, last year Mrs. Liu told Xu Jiu about her family, it is said that it is a big family in the county, and the girl looks like a willow leaf with curved eyebrows and a cherry mouth, and she doesn't want to leave at a glance. His brother was not at ease, so he had to go to the county to check for Xu Jiu. Finally, after wandering around the county for a long time, I found the family, and lay down at the base of the wall for a long time, almost not letting the public in the yamen take it. The girl did have willow leaf curved eyebrows, but there was only one side of the eyebrows. It is indeed a cherry mouth, but no matter how small the mouth is, it is stretched open by those two big buckteeth......

"Yes, Mrs. Liu's words can be believed, and you can eat!"

While talking, the two stopped in front of the big mansion at the east end of the village. The status of this house in Xujiazhuang is no less than that of the county government in the city. There is no other reason, the owner of this mansion is Mrs. Xu. Speaking of this Xu Taigong, not only in Xujiazhuang, but also in the entire Xiajin County, it is also famous. The children in the village, starting from eating snot bare, listened to the elders tell the glorious deeds of Xu Taigong.

"Who's going?" The little white face looked at the gate of the Xu Mansion and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. According to legend, Xu Taigong killed not 10,000 people, but 8,000, and no matter who walked in front of this door in Xujiazhuang, he had to clamp his cheeks tightly, for fear of making a fart and alarming the fierce gods in the house.

"It's naturally me, on courage, on means......" As soon as the black boy said this, he heard a cold snort around him, and the little white face moved forward angrily, "Bang Bang" slapping on the gate of Xu's mansion.

After a while, I heard a creak, and a face flashed out of the door. This man is a good-looking man! A pair of sword eyebrows, both thick and long, a little rough. But those eyes are exceptionally clear and elegant. The bridge of the nose is straight, like a knife cut. The lips are thin and upturned, and they are very cold. This young man is Xu Taigong's youngest son, Xu Wei, also known as Xu Jiu because he ranks ninth. The two people outside the door are the playmates who grew up with him since childhood, the white one is called Yang Yan, and the black one is called Zhang Qing, both of whom are famous "stunned green" in Xujiazhuang.

The little white-faced Yang Yan at the door saw Xu Wei there, without saying a word, as if he didn't know them at all, and was stunned: Let's play with urine and mud when we are young, although it is always you who pee on me and mud, but that is also a childhood sweetheart, why don't you even know me? Could it be true as Liu's mother said? This guy was taken in by the Jade Emperor? Became a nerd?

Before he could figure it out, Zhang Qing, the black boy behind him, strode forward and shouted, "Do you still recognize me!" ”

Xu Wei looked at him, still didn't say anything, Zhang Qing and Yang Yan glanced at each other, and said in their hearts, this time it's time to stop cooking, one of our four brothers has been detained, life and death are uncertain, and the other has become a nerd, and he doesn't understand personnel, how can this be good?

Zhang Qing sighed, Xu Jiu was stunned, if he wanted to save Ma Tai, he had to find another way, and as soon as he thought of this, he said to him: "It's okay, you are so good to recuperate, we still have something to do, we will come to see you another day." ”

Yang Yan still didn't give up, and put his face in front of Xu Wei: "Take a closer look, Yang Yan, Xujiazhuang's number one handsome descendant." ”

Zhang Qingyi pulled him over: "Let's go, it's too late, Mattei's arm will be gone." Yang Yan smacked his mouth like a toothache, with a look of regret, it doesn't make sense, just our face, if you say it's stupid, you can't forget it even if you die, how can you not remember it at all? It can be seen that Xu Wei's appearance is obviously not at all impressed. Quite sadly, he took Xu Wei's hand and followed Zhang Qing.

As soon as the two of them turned around, they heard Xu Wei's voice behind them: "What's the matter?" Whose arms are gone? ”

Zhang Yang and the others looked at each other, listening to him, they didn't look like idiots, right?

Yang Yan was overjoyed, and immediately put things together. It turned out that Xu Wei was sick these days, and he, Zhang Qing, and a young man named Ma Tai were really idle, so they went to the county town to play, and found a gambling house to try their luck as usual. He and Zhang Qing gave up after losing a few taels of silver. But Mattei was red-eyed and lost twenty times! He had no money to give, so he said that he had made a note and would return it within ten days. Everyone in Xiajin County knows that although they are dumbfounded, their reputation has always been good.

But this time, the gambling house seemed to have changed owners, and they didn't buy it at all, they didn't greet them, and they started directly, and it was said that with their brothers' methods, five or six men didn't pay attention to them. But the proprietor of the gambling house was an expert, and before they could see it clearly, Ma Er was kicked on the ground and raised his corpse. Mattei was restrained, and the remaining two were fine. No, come back and move Xu Wei, the fierce god.

Yang Yan's face was full of gloom, he was usually used to being rampant, but this time he was planted in the hands of others, and it could be seen that he was very unconvinced.

"He's, my friend?" Xu Wei listened and asked.

"Nonsense! He also saved your life! Yang Yan said loudly and added: "When I was five or six years old." ”

When Xu Wei heard this, he didn't hesitate for a moment, nodded and said, "Go to the casino." ”

"I mean, it's ......better not to be rough than to raise money to save people," Zhang Qing interjected. Xu Wei glanced at him, this is a cautious person.

"Scraping together money?" Yang Yan glanced at Zhang Qing, "Brother, it's not that brothers don't fight righteousness, this is twenty ......."

Xu Wei groaned and stepped out of the house: "Let's talk about it when I go." ”

When Yang Yan saw it, he came to his senses: "Do you want to bring a guy?" Call for some more punches? Damn, deceive me in the name of Xujiazhuang, hum! Seeing that Xu Wei had strode in the opposite direction, he hurriedly followed and pulled back.

Zhang Qing hesitated a little, the notoriety of the ninth child of the Xu family was spread throughout Xia Jin. With a violent temperament, good means, and a simple mind, he has to make a big deal when he goes, but he doesn't want to kill people. Suddenly, he gritted his teeth, spitted, and stepped forward. Along the way, Zhang Yang and the others naturally had to introduce themselves to Xu Wei, who grew up together, and they didn't press the table.

Xiajin County leans on the canal in the west, and is located in the territory of the Daimyo Mansion, with convenient water and land transportation, and countless merchants come and go from the south to the north. There are many inns, gambling houses, restaurants, and tea shops in the county. It is also the most famous gambling house, whether it is a big businessman with a lot of money, or a local idler who comes out to play soy sauce with three or five copper coins on the order of his wife, they all love to try their skills in the gambling house.

When the rich merchants lost their money, they just chuckled twice, and then swaggered around the kiln. If the idlers lose the money for soy sauce, they will have to smear the dust on their faces, make their clothes messy, and go back to cry to the Hun family that they met Xu Jiu and his gang on the street today. In this way, not only will they not be scolded, but the women will also be glad that their men have no broken heads and blood, and no hands and feet.

The Datong gambling house is located in the north gate of Xiajin County, and although the weather is hot, it does not reduce the interest of gamblers in the slightest. The casino seemed to be crowded with customers, shouting, screaming, and scolding. Two neat men stood at the door with their hands in their hands, and when they saw the brightly dressed man, they made a gesture, and if they were ordinary people, they laughed and scolded a few words. When he heard a greeting from inside, he roared and ran in.

Xu Wei, Zhang Qing, and Yang Yan entered the city and went straight to the Chase Casino. The two thugs were making fun of a broken household that had lost all his clothes, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the two boys who had been kicked out of the casino again. ”

When these boys were gambling money before, they recognized that it was Xu Laojiu's gang from Xujiazhuang. The new proprietor didn't seem to know Xu Wei's name, so he didn't even say a word, and directly used force with people, but he couldn't persuade him. How can such a thing be done? It's okay this time, I've recruited the little overlord of the Xu family! Hey, didn't you say that this guy was plagued?

In the casino, two thugs rushed into the inner hall, and after a while, they saw a bearded man in a flower robe rushing out, with his chest open, a body of horizontal flesh, and a fierce look in his eyes. Seeing that Xu Wei and the three of them had stepped into the gambling house, they roared: "Stop!" "The sound is like a bell, full of energy.

When Xu Wei saw it, he said in his heart, why do bullies look like this? Unexpectedly, the man said nothing, so he leaned to the side, bowed down and said, "Great official, please!" ”
