Chapter 431 Routine

The person playing Weibo said: "What's the matter, want to fight hard? You three, five of us, five guns, do you want to live or what?"

I smiled and said, "If you die, you have to understand. May I ask who this Boss Li is?"

He sneered and said: "It seems that you still want to take revenge, but let me tell you, Boss Li is someone you can't afford to offend. He has people above him, and killing you is as easy as crushing an ant. You... Don't try to mess with it again, or you won't be so lucky next time." After speaking, he laughed and drove away.

For a while, Tofu, the corpse fairy and me were left in the same place. The night wind blew slowly, until the vehicle was far away, I finally couldn't hold on, my body swayed, and I fell into a complete coma. In a daze, Tofu should have messed with me go back.I didn't close my eyes all day and night, and I didn't eat anything, and I was beaten and kicked, so I slept until noon the next day.When I woke up, I was lying on my own bed with my clothes off, and I was still being dripped next to me.

Tofu happened to be watching by the side. Seeing me open my eyes, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I was scared to death." I looked down and found that the wound on my body had already been medicated, and there was a strong smell of alcohol and medicine.Seeing that I didn't speak, Tofu said, "I invited a doctor to come over to see it in the morning, and it will be OK after finishing this bottle."

I said nothing.

Tofu twisted his fingers, and finally said: "It's all my fault, I'm sorry."

I lost my temper, and said: "Forget it, are you sorry for my lack of space? Is there anything to eat, get me some." Tofu made some food and came over, and while eating, Tofu asked: "Old Chen , what are your plans next?"

I said, "What do you think I'm going to do?"

An angry look flashed across Tofu's face, and he said, "You were robbed, and those people still beat you up like this, can you swallow it? Even if you can swallow it, I can't swallow it, I have to find a way to deal with them. "I said: "I only know that person's surname is Li. I haven't heard of it before. It's probably a force that emerged recently. These people have guns and ammunition. It is said that there are still people above. How can we fight them?" Moreover, that fat man Where is the den, I don't know yet."

Seeing that I had no intention of revenge, Tofu felt something was wrong, looked at me suspiciously, and said, "There is something wrong, Old Chen, you don't have such a personality, are you really going to put up with it?"

I sneered, thinking of that fat man's sinister eyes, I had an urge to kill, but I suppressed this urge, and calmly said: "It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, we must first find out where they came from." Only then can we start, what’s the use of rushing now.”

Tofu heard the words and said, "How can we find out where they came from?"

I said, "We'll talk about it when I recover from my injury." At the moment, my eyes are also swollen, my body is bruised and purple, and I can't go out to meet people. Over the past year, I have also met many people in the circle. There are few people, and there will be rumors that this force has emerged for no reason. I will inquire about it at that time, and I should be able to get information about the fat man.

The following days were uneventful, Tofu moved back again, and continued to curl up on the sofa and pick his feet to watch online games, Shixian was still a follower, and did not cause any trouble.When the injuries on my body were healed, I contacted some friends in the business to inquire about it, and it really made me find out the clues.

It turned out that the reason why I hadn't heard of this person surnamed Li before was because his family only got involved in the antique industry in the last few months. Due to their large financial resources, they quickly gathered a group of people.This Li family tree has deep roots, luxuriant branches, and a prosperous family. Many people in the family are officials, and they typically walk in black and white.

In the past two years, the antique market has become more and more prosperous. As the saying goes, gold in troubled times and antiques in prosperous times. Now that the country is growing stronger and has reached the prosperous age, the antique industry has naturally become a piece of fat.In the past, the market in Shenzhen was headed by the Zhao family. Now that the Zhao family has collapsed and disintegrated, Fatty Li stepped in. It is said that he is still buying the remaining property of the old man Zhao recently. The move is very big and has the potential of thunder. There is no background influence in the Tao, and they dare not provoke them, so they don't know much.

I found out the address of Fatty Li, but it is heavily guarded, with a full security system, and the entire compound is under surveillance. If flies enter, they have to test their parents.

I told Doufu about the news, and Tofu said, "It's over, should we just eat this dark loss? These days, a good family is too important, it's just my fault."

Cyclops was very calm, and said: "We were robbed of our feather clothes this time. In jargon, we were blacked out. Who in this business has not been eaten up? If we fight against them, it is like a mayfly shaking a tree. If we are not careful It's over. It's not that I'm timid as the head of the family, I think we should admit it."

Tofu heard the words and said: "How do you increase the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige. We are not against the entire Li family, but looking for revenge against Fatty Li alone. I think we should think of a way that can be hidden. Steal the feather clothes, and beat up the surnamed Li by the way, to vent his anger on Old Chen."

Cyclops shook his head and remained silent, expressing his disapproval of Tofu's approach. Finally, the two of them looked at me in unison and asked me to make up my mind. Come back, I have been busy this year, as tired as my grandson, and have been slandered enough, this time no matter what, I will order the feather coat. But I can’t be impulsive, I have to wait for the time.”

Tofu thought for a while, and came up with an idea: "The person surnamed Li will never be at home all the time, and we can ambush when he always goes out."

Cyclops does not approve of revenge. He is older than me and Tofu, and he likes to seek stability. He thinks that it is common for those who fight against each other to be blackmailed. He can only blame himself for his incompetence.Although these words make sense, but I have experienced scenes of being surrounded, beaten, threatened, and robbed.After Tofu finished speaking, Cyclops poured cold water on him and said, "Even if he goes out, he still has bodyguards, and he still has a gun on his body, how can he ambush him?"

Tofu scolded Cyclops: "Why didn't you notice that you are more cowardly than me?"

Cyclops said, "I'm not being cowardly, it's called...recognizing the reality and enduring humiliation."

Tofu said: "As a human being, you can't blindly bow your head to reality, otherwise what's the point of living? There is a living example in front of us." Then he pointed at me and said: "See, from a dick to a rich man now He is handsome because he does not bow to reality. Of course, this courage to fight is worth learning, and it would be even better if he could be more gentle and cute.”

I said coldly: "Tenderness and cuteness are reserved for my daughter-in-law, don't talk about these useless things, I already have a plan."

While braiding the corpse fairy's hair, Tofu said, "Let's hear it."

I said: "It's not as complicated as you said, don't you think it's safe to hand over Yuyi?"

Tofu looked at me with a dumbfounded expression, and said, "What do you mean?"

Cyclops reacted quickly, hissed, and lowered his voice: "Master, you mean they will come again? Could it be that they still want to 'routine'?" I nodded, the so-called routine is jargon , Digging mushrooms upside down, due to manpower constraints, when encountering some large tombs, it is difficult to pour out all the contents.Therefore, once some people find top-quality goods on the market, they will follow the source of the goods to find a way, hoping to find out where it came from and make a second entry.

The jargon is called looking for a way.

Because of my straightforward promise, the person surnamed Li didn't ask any more questions, and the person he sent took the things and left.But now that the unparalleled feather coat is in his hands, I can't help but think of the scene in Journey to the West, the scene of the elder Jingchan touching the precious cassock, and the situation on the side of the ancient sword is similar.

There is a saying that the human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, and when the strength is relieved, the man surnamed Li will figure it out, and he will definitely come to me to find a way.

Cyclops wanted to understand this level, and said in surprise, "What should I do if I am really targeted by them?"

I said: "I've calculated the time, and I estimate that they will come to the door in these two days. Since it is a routine, the person surnamed Li will definitely show up in person." Cyclops thought for a while, and said: "If we make preparations early , At that time, it is a trivial matter to stop the person, but you can't kill him, even if you really beat him up and get the feather clothes back, what will he do in the future?"

I said, "Who said I'm going to stop him?"

Tofu stopped braiding and said, "Why don't you stop people?"

I said: "Of course it's a trick to accompany him. I can't do anything with him outside. I have to fight... I have a hundred ways to kill him. By the way, I have to find a way to get this thing back." Tofu came over, covered his mouth and said in surprise: "You want to take him into the Xuanbing Cave? This move is too poisonous. He got out of the fight. Basically, we don't have to do anything. Find a chance to disappear secretly. The heavenly soldiers, trapped corpses, and mazes can kill them."

I nodded and said nothing.

Tofu couldn't sit still, and he was very angry before, but now he said: "Would it be too..." I knew that he was soft-hearted again, so I said: "He came to find a way, if I told him because of that The place is too dangerous, so if you don't plan to take him there, do you think he will believe it?"

Tofu shook his head.

I said again: "He is so powerful, there are too many ways to threaten us, you don't want to be his lackey in the future, do you?"

Tofu shook his head fiercely, and said, "No, I'll just be your running dog, not someone else's running dog."

I choked for a moment, feeling that the kid had misunderstood the point, so I said angrily, "Is there any difference between being my lackey and being his lackey?"

Tofu laughed and said, "Of course, the owner can beat the dog. If you don't beat the dog, you will have meat to eat."
