With the sound of footsteps, several people walked in. Bai Xiao was his brother Zhou Lun, his brother-in-law Li Dongyang and the Zhou family's butler military advisor Gong Li.

Zhou Bing looked at his elder brother and did not move. Zhou Lun came over and hugged him and said, "Second brother, you are back. I miss my brother to death. Daddy, I was killed by those bastards."

Zhou Bing suddenly lost tears at this moment, and the person became a little cold, and said quietly: "Which bastards?"

Li Dongyang gritted his teeth and said, "It's Xianyu, Tie family, Mu family, these three bastards."

Zhou Bing said: "Did Daddy hurt them?"

Zhou Lun let go of him, held the coffin and said in tears: "Those bastards came to see their father a few days ago and asked for cooperation. But when their father didn't agree, they... were killed by them."

Zhou Bing looked at Gong Li. This person worked in the Zhou family for more than 20 years and has always been the right-hand man of the old man. He has always been known for his calmness and wisdom.

As soon as Zhou Bing's eyes arrived, Gong Li bowed and said, "The eldest young master has no evidence yet."

Zhou Lun said angrily: "What kind of evidence? What other evidence is needed? Who else can do this except the three of them? If the third brother hadn't been crazy, I... I would have fought with them long ago." He cried out.

Zhou Bing was shocked and said, "Ah Hong is crazy?"

Li Dongyang nodded, but Gong Li shook his head, sighed, and looked out the door.

Zhou Lun said: "Second brother, you have not practiced martial arts and have never participated in family affairs. You don't have to worry about this anymore. It's enough to have Gong Li and Dongyang help me. You are weak, don't hurt me."

Zhou Bing felt a little hot. He remembered that when he was a child, his elder brother took him to play every day. He always protected himself and did not let him be in danger. He wanted to climb up the tree to pick pears to eat. The elder brother asked him to wait under the tree. He climbed up to pick it, but he fell down and fell to his head.

Looking at the haggard face and sad and angry look, I couldn't help feeling sad again. I stepped forward and held my brother's hand, called "Big Brother", and the two brothers hugged each other again.

At night, four people sat under the lamp, and most of the fruit and pastries were placed on the table, and no one was interested in touching it.

Gong Li had already told Zhou Bing in detail what had happened recently. Now the four people were waiting for the four shopkeepers of the Zhou family to come back for a meeting.

There are many large and small gangs in the Zhongyuan area, but only three can compete with the Zhou family.

The Zhou family Banshantang controls the salt and cotton pawnshop, the Xianyu family Juyi Buds control gambling and wine making, the Tie Family Zhongyuan Buds build brothels, and the Mu Family Tieqi Club runs rafts and ships, and most of them do business by licking blood from the knife.

Xian Yu Chunsheng, the owner of the Xianyu family of these three families, is the brother-in-law of Tiexansi of the Tiexansi family. Tiexansi and Mu Tianhui of the Mu family are brothers of different teachers in the same school.

These three families have always advanced and retreated, and competed with the Zhou family.

Although there are constant frictions between each other, the Zhou family is powerful, and Zhou Haisheng's kung fu is even more pure. Secondly, he has done different careers and has no interest in it, and has never had any major conflicts.

Now Emperor Xiaozong is wise and has been polite to regulate the administration of officials and the law of Qingshang. The governance of brothels and gambling stores is becoming increasingly strict. Xianyu and the Tie family and Mu family have begun to seek other developments.

The three families thought of finding Zhou's cooperation and used Zhou Haisheng's power in the government to protect their business. So the heads of the three families came to Zhou Haisheng to negotiate and used all the temptations and threats, but Zhou Haisheng did not buy their accounts and refused to deal with them.

Half a month ago, Mr. Zhou went to the money shop to reconcile the accounts that day as usual. The third young master Zhou Hong and military advisor Gong Li were accompanying him, with three martial artists.

After coming out of the money shop, a man dressed in a servant who had never seen before came to stop them, saying that Xian Yu Chunsheng and Mu Tianchu were invited to the restaurant nearby.

Mr. Zhou didn't want to go there, but the third young master Zhou Hong thought that if he didn't go there, he seemed to be afraid of them, so he persuaded the old man to go there.

When he arrived at the restaurant, the third young master Zhou Hong was afraid of an accident, so he asked Gong Li to take three martial artists to stare at him, and he accompanied the old man upstairs.

Gong Li wanted to go broad daylight, but Xianyu and the Mu family couldn't play any tricks, so he responded and stayed downstairs.

Before half a cup of tea was over, suddenly there was a loud scream from the upstairs, and the guests ran downstairs one after another.

Gong Li realized something was wrong. When they came upstairs, they saw the third young master Zhou Hong sitting on the ground with a look of horror, his eyes straight at the window, and he didn't speak when he saw them.

Several people entered the inner room and saw that the old man was lying on his back in the pool of blood on the ground. He was split in half from his neck to his abdomen, but there was no one else in the room.

I looked back at Zhou Hong and asked what happened, but I saw Zhou Hong urinating and was already scared, and just kept saying: "He is here, he is here, he is not a human, he is not a human."

Gong Li and three martial artists carried each man and his body back home. Zhou Lun immediately took people to Xianyu's mansion to fight desperately, but Xianyu was not at home, saying that he had gone to Beijing with the owner of the Tie family.

Zhou Lun turned back to the Mu family, but the owner of the Mu family was not there, saying that he had not returned from the ward, and it had been almost a month since he returned.

Zhou Lun injured several martial artists of the Mu family. Dozens of people rushed out of the crowd, surrounding Zhou Lun and his dozens of people. After a fight, they each suffered damage. Fortunately, Gong Li arrived later and pulled Zhou Lun back, so no major incident happened.

These days, Zhou Lun sent people to these three families to watch every day, and just waited for these three people to come back and then he wanted to take revenge.

Gong Li urged him to conceal the master first before discussing it. He insisted on not accepting it and would definitely hold grudges for the old man and his third brother before burying it. If he hadn't insisted on this, Zhou Bing would have really not seen his father's body.

The four of them sat there silently. Zhou Bing's eyes saw his brother-in-law's face from his elder brother's face, and then looked at Gong Li. The three of them frowned and thought about their thoughts.

Zhou Lun was sad and hatred, Li Dongyang was sad and confused, but military advisor Gong Li was just a little depressed, not even seeing sadness, not being sad, not being sad, not being confused.

The footsteps sounded, and the four of them bowed and came into the house, and sat down.

These four people are pillars of the Zhou family. Outsiders call them the four tigers of the Zhou family, namely the Fentian Hand Hu Yidong, the Chuanyun Sword Hou Jun, the Crazy Lion Zhuang Ji, and the Hundred Hand scholar Le Tianer.

Each of these four people is a stand-alone outside, conquering the business markets in various provinces.

At this time, the four of them had tears on their faces and were covered in dust. From the tiredness on their faces, they could imagine their fatigue.

The eight people sat there, looking at each other for a long time, and no one could speak. Suddenly, the crazy lion Zhuangji burst into tears. He tried his best to hold back, and tears flowed on his dark face, which made him even more sad.

He was an orphan. Zhou Haisheng adopted him when he was fifteen years old. He taught martial arts and taught humanity, and handed over the business of Huguang and Nanzhili provinces to him.

Zhou Haisheng was like his own father, with deep feelings. He was straightforward and had little scheming. He was shocked and fainted from crying several times when he heard the tragic news. At this time, he was sitting in this hall, thinking of others, and suddenly couldn't help himself and cried.

Zhou Lun stood up, walked behind Zhuang Ji, hugged him from behind, and said, "Brother, don't hurt your body, we still have to avenge the old man."

He is two years younger than Zhuangji and has been called a brother since he was a child.

Zhuang Ji raised his head, his eyes were covered with bloodshot, and he said to Gong Li: "Who is the enemy? I'll tear him."

Gong Li sighed and said, "We won't talk about revenge today. After the old man had an accident, in order to respond, the business in the five provinces has stopped and withdrawn. Only the pawnshop is still standing, but it is not as good as before.

Today, we need to come up with a countermeasure. The Zhou family will not collapse just because the old man is gone and give the five provinces to them for nothing."

The "they" he mentioned is the three families of Tiemu Chunyu.

Zhuang Ji looked back at Zhou Lun and said, "Did they do it?"

Zhou Lun nodded, Zhuang Ji gritted his teeth and said, "These beasts." He punched the table, and the gloomy wooden table made a muffled sound.

Zhou Bing said on the side: "No matter who it is, you are not allowed to take revenge without me."
