Catastrophe

Is Qu Ding a good person?

After Xiang Kuan died, he asked himself this question more than once.

Dream back to years ago.

Lingnan barren village, in front of the half-collapsed Guandi Temple.

The seven brothers lit the yellow paper, accepted the certificate, worshipped Guan Gong, drank blood and wine, and formed an alliance.

The bandits below are all brothers, but the seven of them are siblings.

That night, the moonlight swayed.

The seven knelt in front of the bonfire, the blade of the blade swept across the fingers, and blood dripped into the cup.

"Seven of my brothers, accept the name and form a brotherhood!"

"Life and death support each other, good and bad save each other."

"Fortune and misfortune depend on each other, help each other in adversity."

"Anyone who messes with my brother will kill him if he takes his name."

"Brothers who mess with my brothers will be killed if they take their names."

"Heaven and earth are proofs, mountains and seas are alliances, if there is an oath for this, heaven and earth will punish them!"

"Drink!"

"Stand up!"

Since then, the Seven Thieves of Hedong was established.

Qinghe East, sweeping Nanqiu, fighting the coalition army of twenty bandits.

Invincible, invincible.

They used to be the nightmare of all the bandits in the Hedong area. In many cases, the name of the Seven Bandits in Hedong was better than a thousand troops. Without a single soldier, it was enough to make many bandits panic and flee without a fight.

Years go by, and the wind and clouds are gone.

The Seven Thieves, who once created countless brilliance and myths in the Hedong area, could not resist the passage of time.

Qu Ding was the only one left of the seven gangsters who used to be high-spirited.

The peak of banditry in Lingnan began with the support of the chaebol, but with the strong intervention of the Starlight Armed Forces, this situation has also changed dramatically.

After losing the support of the chaebols, the situation in the Hedong area became strange. The bandits who had been making troubles fell to the bottom in the shortest time and became lunatics who chose people to eat.

As a brother, Qu Ding violated his oath and killed his eldest brother.

He did this because he felt that Xiang Kuan was no longer suitable to continue to lead the Hedong Bandit Gang, and Xiang Kuan's behavior also made him feel that the other party wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of him, so he chose to strike first.

Qu Ding did this for the greed of power, but at the same time for the ideal in his heart.

In the heyday of the Hedong Seven Thieves, each of them was brilliant. As a member of them, Qu Ding did not want to let the glory of the Hedong Gang become history. He wanted to revive the Hedong Gang through his own efforts.

Qu Ding did away with Xiang Kuan, but Xiang Yunxi and Xiang Zhen were the two children he watched grow up. In the case of some choices, Qu Ding still decided to let them live, which is also considered to be satisfied with Xiang Kuan. 's will.

Unexpectedly, Xiang Yunxi voluntarily gave up the good life in the fortress and chose to stay in the Hedong Gang to take revenge for Xiang Kuan.

When the persuasion failed, Qu Ding could only choose to let him go and let Xiang Yunxi enter the mountain.

When the convoy returned to the cottage, Qu Ding did not ride with Xiang Yunxi, and was still sitting in his off-road vehicle.

Qu Ding's confidant, who was in charge of driving, saw his face in the rearview mirror and saw what Qu Ding was worried about, and said solemnly: "Second Master, Xiang Yunxi is just a yellow-haired girl, not enough to shake your status, if you need it If so, I can arrange for someone to kill her to avoid future troubles!"

Qu Ding replied gloomily: "You underestimate Xiang Yunxi. Although she is a woman, her fighting power is definitely not lower than that of me and Xiang Kuan."

The bandit disagreed: "She is indeed very strong, but there is always a limit, right? We are already in charge of a team of thousands of people, are we afraid that she will fail?"

"You are too naive, Xiang Yunxi is terrible, not only because of her fighting ability, but also because of her status, she is Xiang Kuan's daughter, and has the right of inheritance in name, and Xiang Yunxi is in the gang. The status is not comparable to that of Xiangzhen."

Qu Ding turned his eyes slightly, looked at the convoy beside the land fort, and lit a cigarette: "The team following Xiang Yunxi is very well equipped. I think it should be a private soldier that Xiang Kuan has been raising in secret. When this group of people starts, we may not be able to get anything cheap.

Among the troops we currently have, including the defenders of Dongshanling, there are also many people who are loyal to Xiangkuan. If we directly attack Xiang Yunxi, it is still unknown how many people will stand on our side. The Starlight Armed Forces are already overwhelming, and we don't have the energy to carry out meaningless internal frictions. "

"Don't tell me, are you going to let Xiang Yunxi take over the Hedong Gang like this?" The bandit took a deep breath and said to Qu Ding, "Second Master, now all the members of the Hedong Gang together are more than 1,500. People, but more than half of them are loyal to you. Everyone believes that they can have a bright future with you, and they have persisted until now. If we were to follow the command of a woman, I would be the first to object! We spent so much With great strength, you absolutely cannot make wedding dresses for others!"

"Don't worry, I have my own plans for these things." Qu Ding let out a breath of smoke and said in a low voice, "Nominally there is no problem with Xiang Yunxi taking over the gang, and her ability is very important to the current Hedong. For help, it is indeed a help, if he wants to avenge his father, then he will satisfy her."

After the group returned to the Juyi Hall, Xiang Yunxi saw Xiang Kuan's body and locked herself in the room for ten minutes. She led Xiang Zhen back to the Juyi Hall with a calm expression, as if nothing had happened. .

Qu Ding, as always, sat on the top seat of the second master, and said, "Yun Xi, these people present are the last backbone of the Hedong Gang. Originally, you took over the position of Xiangye to lead the Hedong Gang. There should be a grand ceremony, but Xiangye should have a grand ceremony. Lord has just left, and heavy troops have assembled outside the Dongshan Mountains, so let's get rid of the cliché."

"Well~www.readwn.com~ Xiang Yunxi nodded, adjusted his state and asked, "How is the situation in the battle now? "

A bandit below stood up and responded: "The 3,000 people we deployed in the Kujiao Canyon were wiped out by the Starlight Arms, and the 1,000 people deployed in the Bach Mountains chose to join the enemy, and there are still about 3,500 people in the Xingge Desert. , Zhu Zhao is leading the 500 leading troops and is fighting against the Starlight armed team, and the remaining 3000 people are going to support, and it is expected that they will be able to fully exchange fire with the enemy before tonight."

Qu Ding interjected: "The reason why this team didn't withdraw, I also considered the sound of the east and the west, and used the battle line over there to attract the attention of the Starlight Armed Forces. According to the reports of our spies, the Xingguang Armed Forces' defense line in the Xingge Desert seems to be There are not too many people, if we put the pressure on their back, maybe we can force them to go back to defense and reduce the pressure on Dongshanling."

Xiang Yunxi nodded: "This approach is correct, but you can't rush forward in a swarm. Let me know that this unit will stay behind a thousand people and prepare to defend against the enemy who will attack from behind."

"Fourth Master... No, Chief." The bandit below reminded: "There is no enemy behind this team!"

Xiang Yunxi shook his head: "It's not that there are no enemy troops, it's just that you didn't see it."
