060 Rejection(1/2)
In the market, there are still shops open for business, and there are even some scattered stalls selling supplies.
But it's different from the bustle of the past.
Whether it is the vendors selling goods or the customers selling goods on the street, they all have alert eyes, tense bodies, and cautious words and deeds.
Especially those who are still insisting on selling goods. They have strong builds and sharp eyes. You can tell at a glance that they are not easy to mess with.
There are even guards and thugs watching nearby.
Not so.
I am afraid and dare not go out to do business.
Last night's corpse, blown by the white-haired wind, had turned into white bones, and was thrown casually into a corner without anyone paying attention.
Zhou Jia did not linger on the street, tightened his soft armor and walked quickly.
"Director Zhou!"
A cry stopped him:
"Deacon Han is looking for you!"
Deacon Han?
Zhou Jia was stunned and subconsciously stopped.
…………
The leader of the Fish and Dragon Society was killed by a wave of beasts, and the deputy leader disappeared on the night of the riots in the outer city. The large gang was leaderless for a while.
Fortunately, there are still two elders who can barely maintain the overall situation.
station.
After the riots, almost everything inside was looted. Fortunately, most of the house is still there and can still be used for office work.
Fatty Han, who was wearing heavy armor and had a general belly, was sitting on a stone chair. When he saw someone coming from outside, he stood up and greeted him with a big smile.
"Brother Zhou, I knew you were fine. The title of Lucky Star cannot be faked."
"Brother Han is fine too."
Zhou Jia's eyes were filled with relief. After all, they came from the same place, and Fatty Han was very good at being a good person. It was really hard to dislike him:
"How are Zhao Gang and the others doing?"
"Everything is fine." Fatty Han nodded:
"We hid together and survived by luck, but Chen Hui and Lu Rong couldn't be contacted. Do you have any news about them?"
"No." Zhou Jia's eyes darkened:
"After the beast wave, I inquired and it seemed that they were taken to Huo Mansion. However, due to the riots in the past few days, the people in Huo Mansion..."
Shaking his head, he continued:
"There's been no news in the past few days, I'm afraid it's going to be bad."
Whether it was the night of the riot or afterwards, he tried to find Chen Hui and the two, but the whole Huojiabao was in chaos.
Finding someone is as difficult as going to heaven.
There are no clues either.
"Why!"
Fatty Han sighed:
"Life and death are destiny, wealth and honor are in heaven, you can't force anything."
The few of them survived because of Wei Zhixing's blessing and because the outer city was not the core of chaos.
Inner city...
The situation that day was not to mention the two weak women. Even the temple with super masters in charge was reduced to ruins.
"That's all, that's all."
Waving his hand, Fatty Han pulled Zhou Jia to sit down:
"There are some things that we can only leave to fate, but as the saying goes, one-third of it is fate and seven-tenth of it depends on hard work. Now the opportunity has come."
"Through the beast tide and riots, there are no survivors in the Huo family, the Qian family and the Kane family are also in ruins, and the major gangs have also suffered heavy losses."
"This is our chance!"
His eyes were bright and he looked directly at Zhou Jia:
"Brother Zhou, how about we fight together?"
"Fight?" Zhou Jia tilted his head:
"What does Brother Han want to do?"
"What to do?" Fatty Han stood up, his eyes flashed, and his voice sounded passionate:
"Nowadays, Huojiabao is in ruins and has no one to rule. This is definitely not a long-term solution. Now the Huo family, Qian family, and Kane family have all been defeated. Black Lotus and Liuren Hall have also suffered heavy losses. There are many top masters above the eighth grade.
There are casualties, isn’t this an opportunity?”
He turned around, and the armor leaves on his body collided with each other, making a loud noise:
"This world is different from ours. Everything has to be exchanged for one's life. If one has to fight for one's life, there will be no luck."
"Especially for people like us who have no background, if they want to get ahead..."
"It's harder than climbing to the sky!"
Fatty Han sighed with emotion and said slowly:
"It's extremely difficult to stand up here, and it's almost impossible to get ahead. But now we have an opportunity."
"A real man doing nothing is different from rotten wood and rotten grass?"
"My father named me Yonggui because he wanted me to be successful when I grow up. However, in modern society, I can only be an unknown salesperson."
"And here..."
He narrowed his eyes, held one hand empty, and said in an excited tone:
"As long as you dare to fight hard, you can hope to gain everything!"
"Opportunities don't come often, especially opportunities like today, which are rare. Don't you want Brother Zhou to give it a try?"
Fatty Han's words, coupled with his actions, were very contagious. However, Zhou Jia looked calm and just spoke slowly:
"What Brother Han said, is it Deacon Wei's idea or the Third Elder's idea?"
"Ah……"
Fatty Han chuckled and said:
"What's the difference?"
He put his hands behind his back and walked around the field:
"The second elder has always been against the third elder, and now he wants to take his people away from the Fish and Dragon Society. How can the third elder allow it?"
"Although the third elder is a female, her strength is at least level nine, and she is fair and just in her work. No one in the gang is dissatisfied."
"If we can unify the Fish and Dragon Society, we might not be able to seize the opportunity to occupy half of the sky in Huojiabao."
"You want to attack the second elder?" Zhou Jia's expression changed slightly:
"The second elder is not weaker than the third elder, and there are several guest elders who are close friends with him, so he may not be inferior to the third elder."
"Don't worry." Fatty Han narrowed his eyes:
"The third elder is extremely talented. Since he has this intention, he will be able to clear the obstacles in one fell swoop. Nowadays, all the major forces are in civil strife. Whoever can gain a foothold first will be able to occupy more territory."
"Brother Zhou!"
He looked at Zhou Jia with a serious look on his face:
"come together!"
Zhou Jia's eyes flashed and he shook his head slowly:
"Feel sorry."
"Why?" Fatty Han was disappointed and confused:
"In today's troubled times, if you don't stand in a high position or stand at the top, you will be a pawn at the mercy of others, and this kind of opportunity does not come often."
"I just want to live well." Zhou Jia said slowly:
"What Brother Han is going to do is too dangerous. Even the ninth grade may die if he gets involved. I don't want to take this risk?"
He doesn't even want to go outside to hunt monsters, so why would he ask for trouble here?
"You..." Fatty Han's eyes widened and he shook his head:
"There is nothing safe in this world, and what's the point of living like this?"
