Gentlemen, listen to the sword chant

Chapter 36

"Come, come, hit here."

The old lunatic spoke out loudly, seeing that the waiter didn't speak, he became even more presumptuous, and deliberately moved forward a few steps. The weather was so cold and he was dressed in ragged clothes, so he didn't feel cold.

Seeing that he was so aggressive, the waiter felt angry and gritted his teeth, thinking that the son-in-law was kind-hearted and would not bully the weak, so I will blow your head off, you bastard, a mere old lunatic, how dare you be so arrogant?
Seeing Chen Ci and the big man Fan Chu strolling over, the waiter could only get angry and endure silently.

The next time he made up his mind, when the old lunatic came, at worst, he would be given a hot steamed bun, which would be treated as a meat bun and beat a dog.

In case there are still so many bad things, the son-in-law sees it and has a bad impression.

Just when the old lunatic was triumphant, suddenly, he turned his head and saw Chen Ci and Fan Chu. The old lunatic's face was covered with stains, as if he had just crawled out of a garbage dump, and he showed his big yellow teeth, hehe With a smile: "Yo, the manager is here."

As he said that, he deliberately looked around and was disappointed, "Didn't your little lady come? That's a pity."

The corner of Chen Ci's mouth twitched.

The shop clerk's face changed slightly when he heard the words, how could such frivolous words from the old madman be allowed, he jumped out and pointed at the old madman's nose and cursed: "You bastard, don't be rude."

Chen Ci waved his hand, a little funny: "You old man, it's so funny, you come here every now and then, do you think that last time my wife rewarded you with a few buns, you think I'm a good person?"

The old lunatic didn't take it seriously, he still smiled, and then said solemnly: "Young man, the accidental intersection of fate may be the guidance of the gods. Since you met me, we are destined. Maybe I can give you a chance." ?”

Saying that, he blinked his eyes.

Unfortunately, Chen Ci was unmoved, and sneered: "Hurry up, I'm a businessman, not a good person, I don't want to listen to your nonsense, I just opened today, I don't want to talk nonsense with you, if I dare to stick around, I will be coaxed you go."

The old lunatic looked indifferent, and pointed to his dark face: "Come on, come on, hit here? Try hitting me?"

Statement: "..."

I have seen shameless, never seen such shameless.

Seeing the statement and not speaking, the old lunatic laughed loudly, more complacently, stroked his messy beard and said: "Young man, you and I are destined, why not like this, I reluctantly accept you as my little apprentice, there is no other request, just let me go!" Just a few meals, it’s not worth mentioning to you anyway, I have a small appetite, so I can’t eat much.”

The statement was full of black lines, "You still accept me as an apprentice? What can you teach me, begging?"

The old lunatic sneered: "Hmph, I thought you were a bit sunny, but you are just a guy who shows people with your face. I know things that you would never dream of, just an ordinary man."

Chen Ci laughed, and flicked his sleeves, "Pack him a few buns and let him go, out of sight and out of mind."

After finishing speaking, Chen Ci and Fan Chu walked away.

As for what the old lunatic said, all the statements were automatically filtered, and they were just gibberish.

In the evening, Chen Ci and the princess were listening to the music in the building. Fan Chu reported that Eleven came back and brought a lot of food and horses, and then said that Twelve was robbed of food on the road. The murderer is unknown for the time being. Listen, I suddenly became furious, the food was robbed?

Who did it?

Really bold.

Immediately, Chen Ci gave a wry smile. A few days ago, he made fun of King Wu. King Wu's taxes and food were robbed by the bandits in Babao Mountain. Now it's his turn?Damn it, winter is coming, all ghosts and snakes are running out to grab food for the winter, right?
"What about 12 people?"

"outside."

"Call him in."

"As ordered." Fan Chu withdrew.

Holding Chen Ci's hand, the princess said softly, "Husband, it's a small matter to lose food, so don't blame him."

Chen Ci rubbed her head and said with a smile: "Of course, he is not to blame for the turmoil and insecurity these years. Besides, what is that little money? They are all my most loyal fighters, how can I be willing to blame them?"

After a while, Fan Chu came in with a band of saber retinues.That retinue was a good man selected by Xin Wuji from the prime minister's mansion. He used to serve in the Zhongzhou Iron Army. He was imprisoned for committing a crime. After the fall, he was asked to be executed. Xin Wuji spent money and connections to fish him out. , From then on, he stayed in the prime minister's mansion incognito as a bodyguard.

Twelve knelt down respectfully, with a look of shame on his face: "My son-in-law, I'm sorry..."

"It doesn't matter, you can come back safely." Chen Ci helped him with his own hands. Twelve was flattered and didn't dare to look up. Chen Ci said again: "Who the hell is it that dares to snatch my food and horses?"

Twelve said honestly: "Reporting to the son-in-law, I brought people from Hailing, passed by Babao Mountain, and was attacked at night..."

Camel Dragon Mountain?
Chen Ci doubted: "Tuolong Mountain? Damn, are there bandits everywhere these days?"

Fan Chu was indifferent.

"Find out what the origin of this Tuolong Mountain is. Damn it, you are so brave, you dare to rob me of food." Chen Ci was very angry.

Before, he joked that King Wu was robbed, it was really a turn of events, and now it was his turn.

Twelve took the order to leave.

Yaji was disturbed, and Chen Ci had no intention of listening to the music, so he asked the princess to go back to rest, while he and Fan Chu went to the gambling house to see how much profit they made today.

As a result, when I went back to the gambling house, I didn't know if I didn't look at it, and I was shocked when I saw it.

Murong Tong had already left.

The casino is still brightly lit.

Smoky.

Many anxious guests shouted and roared, but after the opening, there was another burst of sighing.

third floor.

Murong Tong is not here, those young masters are still there, one is gone, and the other two are left. Of these two, one has won a lot of money, with a mountain of gold and silver piled up on the table; It seemed like he hadn't slept for three days and three nights, sighing.

"What's wrong? Mr. Zhang, bad luck?"

The young man called Zhang Gongzi, Zhang Meng, 25 years old, his family is said to be a big landowner with thousands of acres of fertile land, heard the words as if he was discouraged, and said: "My son-in-law, don't mention it, lose the fire. "

"How much did you lose?"

"A full game counts as 200 taels... oh." Zhang Meng sighed, "I borrowed 1000 taels from your gambling shop."

Chen Ci laughed, and then gave some encouragement.

You know, the interest of the gambling house is not cheap, and if you don't pay it back in a month, it will roll to 1 taels.

Early the next morning, Twelve Lai reported back.

"My son-in-law, Tuolong Mountain is located fifty miles north of Beiguan. It is also a vulnerable village. The leader is Huang Feng, who is nicknamed 'Guojianglong'. He has hundreds of horsemen under his command. It is said that Huang Feng and Babaoshan The leader "Little Bawang" Zhang Shun is sworn brother. The two responded to the missionary's lobbying in Tai'an for 15 years, and went up the mountain together to join the gang. After the end of the First World War in Jingzhou, the two returned to Guangling. The 'Lianchi Uprising' is very well-known, and with a wave of arms, it attracted many people to follow them to the mountains and become bandits, and they have been doing business and robbing houses all year round, which has continued until now."
