Chapter 42: Deputy Gang Leader Chen summons
The sky is exposed to the white of the fish's belly, and the morning breeze is slightly cool, as refreshing as usual. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Only today it seems to have a hint of an unusual taste.
It was the smell of blood.
Since early in the morning, the entire Qingwu Town has been quiet, and there is no longer the hustle and bustle of the past. Merchants hung signs saying they were closed, ordinary people closed their doors and windows, and there were few pedestrians on the streets, and the occasional few passers-by were in a hurry. As for the fishermen, they were even more afraid to go out of the boat, and since the first fisherman saw several corpses floating on the riverside, all the fishermen stayed at home honestly.
Although there are rules in the rivers and lakes, gang disputes must not hurt the people, but every time they encounter such a situation, the people still dare not go out, who knows if they will be killed by the red-eyed gang people when they go out?
From time to time, wheelbarrows passed by the docks, stacked not with goods, but with bloody corpses. The bodies were transported to the wasteland and then thrown into a large pit like garbage, where they were hastily buried and disposed of.
There were also wheelbarrows carrying corpses passing by on the street, but the corpses on the carts were wrapped in white cloth, which did not look so casual, they were the Jianghe gang members who died in battle. They were pushed to the helm of the River Gang and then claimed by their families. Each family member can also receive a pension of 30 taels. Of course, if the body is unclaimed, the River Gang will also choose a good place to bury it, and set up a tombstone in a serious way.
The Jianghe Gang specially dispatched a 50-member clean-up team to work overtime to clean up the corpses in order to restore order in Qingwu Town as soon as possible. The reason why gangs, or martial arts, have been able to exist for a long time is because a series of rules have been formed. For example, the war between the Jianghe Gang and the Cao Gang has affected the lives of ordinary people, so the Jianghe Gang has the obligation to eliminate these influences as quickly as possible and restore order, and even some more elaborate sects will send grain, oil, rice and noodles door-to-door to apologize to the people. It is precisely because of this that in this world, the rivers and lakes and gangs have a good mass base and can survive for a long time.
In last night's battle, the Jianghe Gang went out and captured eleven docks of the Cao Gang, accounting for half of the docks controlled by the Qingwu rudder of the Cao Gang. More importantly, the Cao Gang Qingwu Branch Helmsman and Deputy Helmsman and the three hall masters, including the Dafeng Hall Master, were all killed in battle, and more than seventy percent of the troops were lost.
Therefore, the Cao Gang took the initiative to abandon the remaining ten docks and withdrew all the remaining gangs from the area of one or two hundred miles near Qingwu Town.
At this point, the Jianghe Gang has finally established its supremacy in the area of Qingwu Town!
This battle will soon spread throughout the martial arts. There are not many gangs that dare to fight to the death with the Cao Gang, and even fewer gangs that can still win, and the Jianghe Gang became famous for a while. In the rivers and lakes, the benefit of fame is not only that other sects dare not touch you easily, but also that you can easily gain allies. The rivers and lakes are very realistic, if you are weak, everyone will step on you, if you are strong, there will be weak people to take refuge, and there will be strong people to form alliances.
It is said that the Jianghe Gang defeated the Cao Gang in one fell swoop, and naturally the whole gang was jubilant. After the victory, the celebration banquet and the reward for meritorious deeds are naturally indispensable!
If you want to talk about the greatest credit, it is naturally Qin Shuhuai. It was he who first used the trick to kill the master of the Great Wind Hall, Yun Qifeng, and tore a breakthrough for the Jianghe Gang. When attacking the two largest docks of the Cao Gang, he also made great contributions, not only captured the Sandaokou Wharf alone, killed the deputy hall master of the Cao Gang Dafeng Hall, but also assisted Qiu Dali to capture the Qingwu Wharf, and also killed the deputy helmsman Sha Zhentian of the Cao Gang Qingwu rudder. Such a credit, even if Qiu Dali doesn't brag for him, no one can ignore it.
Not long after the establishment of the Jianghe Gang, they shouldered the grand blueprint of Chongzhen, and they were naturally eager to seek talents. There is such a character in the gang suddenly, how can you not be surprised?
That afternoon, when Qin Shuhuai, who had been busy all night, was still dreaming in bed, he was woken up by Qiu Dali's hard knock on the door.
Qiu Dali shouted at the top of his voice when he entered the door, "Stinky boy, what time are you still sleeping? Do you know how many people are waiting to see you now? If you don't go out to make friends with the big guys in the hall at this time, when do you want to wait?"
Qin Shuhuai scratched his scalp sleepily, and before he could understand what was going on, Qiu Dali brought his clothes and asked him to put them on.
Waiting for Qin Shuhuai to get dressed, Qiu Dali urged again, "Let's go, hurry up and go to the Yufeng Pavilion, Deputy Chen will see you!"
Qin Shuhuai suddenly sobered up, Deputy Gang Chen wanted to see himself? This deputy gang leader who saw the head and the end of the dragon finally appeared!
So he hurriedly washed up, and then under the leadership of Qiu Dali, he hurried to the Yufeng Pavilion.
When he arrived at the bottom of the Yufeng Pavilion, Qiu Dali stopped, pointed to the stone steps and said, "The deputy gang leader didn't summon me, so I can't go up." You go up by yourself, remember to be cautious when you speak, you can't be nonsense in front of Deputy Gang Leader Chen. ”
Qin Shuhuai nodded, then went up the steps and entered the Imperial Wind Pavilion alone.
The Imperial Wind Pavilion was a very tall attic, about five or six stories high, and the guards at the door brought Qin Shuhuai to the top floor.
There is a room on the top floor, after pushing it open, I saw that the furnishings inside were elegant, and the wooden cabinet against the wall was full of books, a little not like the room of the people in the rivers and lakes, but like a luxurious big study.
At the south end of the study, there was a middle-aged man who looked very elegant. The man's complexion is fair, his fingers are slender, and there is always a faint smile on his face, and he looks very well-cultivated, presumably this is Chen Changting, the deputy leader of the Jianghe Gang. And under his left hand, sat an old man in black. The old man had a goatee, his eyes were shining, and the deep wrinkles on his face seemed to be carved by a knife and pen, which looked very vicissitudes, Qin Shuhuai guessed that he should be Elder Zuo Wei Huaizong.
These two people should be the same people from the imperial court as Qi Jin, the leader of the Jianghe Gang, and Li Daliang, who controls everything behind the scenes. Up and down the Jianghe Gang, only the four of them know the court background of the Jianghe Gang. Of course, now I'm one myself.
Qin Shuhuai immediately saluted, "Subordinate Qin Shuhuai, see Deputy Gang Leader Chen!
Chen Changting smiled kindly, pointed to the chair beside him, and said, "Get up!
Qin Shuhuai said with a flattered expression, "Deputy Gang Leader Xie!"
Chen Changting smiled again and said, "Qin Shuhuai, I've heard your name a lot recently. If I'm not mistaken, you got into a fight with your seniors on the first day you joined the gang, and you even discounted your legs. On the second day, he killed the second son of Juqing for the gang, and on the sixth day, he killed the head of the Qinglong Hall Jiazifan, which provoked the people of the Law Enforcement Hall to be furious, if it wasn't for your master to intercede with you, I'm afraid that I would have been serving the gang a long time ago. Hehe, I heard it at that time, saying that there was a bold and arrogant boy in the gang, who was not afraid of heaven and earth! I didn't expect that you, an arrogant boy, would be able to kill even the deputy helmsman of the Cao Gang, which really opened my eyes!"
Qin Shuhuai immediately said, "The deputy gang leader praised it. The subordinates just did their duty, as for killing the second son of Juqing, killing the deputy helmsman of the Cao Gang or something, it was purely because of the large number of people, plus my luck. ”
Chen Changting said, "Shuhuai doesn't need to be too humble. Although I was not there, I knew very well what was going on at the time. One thing I'm curious about, you said that your master is the Jade Sword Sect, but someone told me that the Jade Sword Sect doesn't have you at all, which really makes me confused!"
After Chen Changting finished speaking, he still looked at Qin Shuhuai with a smile, looking kind.
Wei Huaizong gently adjusted his sitting posture, and then looked at Qin Shuhuai quietly.
Qin Shuhuai suddenly sweated slightly on his vest, thinking to himself who wanted to rectify himself? And even if that person wanted to rectify himself, the Jade Sword Sect was in Huainan, could he find out the news so quickly?
This is no small matter. If you are at ease with yourself in the gang, then the future is limitless, but if you are considered to have ulterior motives to join the Jianghe Gang, I am afraid that you will definitely not be able to leave here alive!
