Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty-Three: Brothers Gathering in the Promise III
"What are the backgrounds of this group of people..." Shi Jin said to himself: "No one can know the world without leaving home. I'm afraid they are in the open now, and all those subordinates are in the dark. Maybe, People from all walks of life on the streets have their eyes and ears,"
"These people have now found out some news about the birth plan. They heard that it won't be long before the salaries from various places will be handed over to the state capital, and then the state capital will uniformly send troops to Beijing," Shi Qian said, his voice lowered subconsciously. After a while, he said: "Those people seem to have conflicts now. They are divided into two groups. One group wants to follow the clues and do big things, and the other group wants to rob the county's cash and then stop. These two groups have been fighting for several days. There is no final conclusion yet,”
When Shi Jin heard this, he thought about it secretly, and then said slowly: "This is an issue that should be argued over. Everyone has their own ambitions. It's hard to say who is right and who is wrong. I continue to keep an eye on them and let them start for us first." To clear the way, if they unite their minds and want to do something big, that's just right. They can become our pawns to explore the way. However, if they all restrain their courage and want to use the government's cash, I'm afraid they will have to fight head-on. If there is any trouble, come and report it as soon as possible." At this point, Shi Jin straightened up, slowly clasped his hands in front of him, and said, "As long as your intelligence here is well-informed, then no matter what they choose, they will be used as cannon fodder. Material," Shi Jin and Shi Qian laughed together as he said this.
Shi Qian smiled and said, "Brother, there is a place called Liangshan Shuipo here. Do you know this?"
Shi Jin nodded, looked at Shi Qian and said: "Although I have heard about this, it is said that the area is vast and the water is very wide, and millions of soldiers can be hidden. However, the Chao family's affairs are still in the limelight, and I have no time to do anything else. You have to go and see what a remarkable place that water pool is."
"There is a group of people there. The leader is called Wang Lun, a scholar in white. They have gathered a lot of people at Shui Bo Liang Mountain. According to the rumors in the world, there are already five or six leaders of soldiers and horses there, and five or six hundred people have gathered. "Although Shi Qian heard this, Shi Qian was still very serious when he said it.
Shi Jin was slightly surprised and said: "Oh, this scale is no less than when we started from Shaohua Mountain."
"Isn't that right? Now, the most important thing is that the people from Liangshan are also eyeing the birthday card. This is because this group of people occupies an advantageous location and can easily travel around. They are very comfortable on the local ground in Yuncheng County. I haven't gotten any information here, but it seems that the people in Liangshan have also noticed the whereabouts of that group. Recently, they have been sending a guy to spy on them. However, this guy looks familiar to me. I don't know where I saw him. I have, but after thinking about it for a long time I just can’t remember, "
Shi Jin looked at Shi Qian and asked, "What does it look like?"
Shi Qian recalled: "It's hard to describe what he looked like. He had small eyes and a sharp face. He seemed to have just recovered from an injury, but his steps were not too slow. When he was rising and falling, I Under his floating skirt, I saw a lot of hidden weapons of various kinds, on his waist, on his feet, on the ends of his sleeves, etc., and he was very efficient at what he did. I think he is an expert on hidden weapons."
Shi Jin seemed to think of a person based on the description, and the shadow flashed through his mind. However, when Shi Jin thought about it carefully, the memory became blurry again, as if it had never happened, and it was him who was there. The wishful thinking in his heart made Shi Jin unable to figure it out for a while and he did not dare to make any assumptions.
Shi Qian asked at this time: "Brother, the way he looks, I'm afraid he's secretly planning some kind of killing, and I'm afraid he's going to attack that group of people. What should we do, control or observe?"
Shi Jin frowned and asked, "How did you know that the people in Liangshan were going to attack them?"
Shi Qian looked outside and saw nothing unusual, so he approached Shi Jin and lowered his voice: "Liangshan's activities in Yuncheng have been managed by himself since we arrived until now. The guy who uses hidden weapons has always been taking care of them. Since yesterday At the beginning, the man from Liangshan suddenly brought many more people, all dressed as civilians, and secretly replaced some of the waiters in the inn where the group of people were staying. Even the teahouse where they often met had people arranged for them to come. The men with hidden weapons have figured out their routines and have placed manpower on the roads they pass by. I'm afraid this move is not a good intention,"
Shi Jin nodded and said: "Yes, although that guy from Liangshan is a good man, he never thought that all this would fall into your eyes, brother."
Shi Qian did not feel complacent, but brought the topic back to the original topic and said, "I guess it will only take a day or two for them to take action. What should we do?"
Shi Jin analyzed it to himself: "The reason why the people in Liangshan want to kill them is not only due to vendetta, but also because of interests. If the two groups have any vendetta and only hate, Liangshan is like this With such a big force, I'm afraid that group of people still don't have to take such a big risk to risk their lives on other people's territory. It is estimated that many of them are due to interests, and these interests are probably related to the most popular birthday card at the moment. Since Liangshan To kill them means that this group of people has been targeted by Liangshan before we came, and their plan has been clearly revealed by Liangshan. This plan must have hindered Liangshan's affairs, or in other words, Liangshan plans to occupy the magpie's nest and eradicate the roots. No matter what, these people are a thorn in Liangshan's side. They want to stay. Firstly, they will consume Liangshan's energy. Secondly, they can draw Liangshan's attention. Let us The power has been concealed." When Shi Jin said this, the matter had a vague conclusion. Shi Jin said: "It's not time to let Liangshan eliminate them, we have to help them secretly," Shi Jin said.
Shi Qian understood a little bit, but he still had a lot of questions in his heart, so he said: "The reason why I came here is, firstly, to ask about the decision of whether to save or not, and secondly, I still want to ask my elder brother for advice. If we want to save them, we have limited manpower, so how can we save them in secret?"
Shi Jin glanced at Shi Qian with a smile and said, "Brother Xian, you are really confused for a moment. How can you save me? It's not easy to talk about the birth date with many brothers of the Chao family. There are so many people talking so as not to let the news leak out." , on the contrary, it will cause a big disaster. Right now, there are two of you and me. They are settling on three sides. Let alone the two of us, we can't save us. Even if we are split apart, the Liangshan gang will not be able to save us. It is not something that is easy to deal with. How to save it is not something we should think about,"
"Then let them fend for themselves. Isn't the big brother planning to save them? Could it be that the big brother has some good tricks to summon magic weapons from the sky?"
Shi Jin shook his head with a smile and said, "There is no good strategy, but there is a way." After hearing this, Shi Qian quickly pricked up his ears to listen. Shi Jin said, "If you do this, write two letters. This first letter must be Written in the tone of Liangshan, tell that group of people that there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. They have been targeted and their lives are at stake. They are asked to get out of Yuncheng County immediately, otherwise they will be strangled on the spot because of the lack of rules. This second letter, I have to write to Liangshan in the tone of that group of people..."
When Shi Qian heard this, he suddenly became enlightened. Before Shi Jin could finish speaking, he interrupted: "I know, my eldest brother is still the best,"
Seeing that he understood, Shi Jin stopped talking and said, "When the time comes, keep an eye on them. If they start pinching them, it will be a matter for the government."
Shi Qian nodded with a smile, as if he had a well-thought-out plan, and said, "Well, I'll just do what my eldest brother said, so I'll go first."
Shi Jin nodded and sent Shi Qian out. He watched Shi Qian jump onto the eaves lightly and deftly, then disappeared after a few ups and downs.
Shi Jin looked at the slightly red rising sun in the northeast and thought, this day will be another big show and a noisy one.
【Yuncheng County】
"Hey, sir, please come this way." The waiter, who was chanting poems in praise of Yue Lou, welcomed a burly man into the hotel and accompanied him with a warm smile and a nod.
The man ignored him and walked upstairs, cursing at the same time: "There are no bird people upstairs, why did you arrange for me to eat the ashes of their passing feet on the first floor? You are such a kind store owner?"
When the waiter saw that he met such a troublesome man when he opened the store so early in the morning, he felt unhappy. However, facing such a big and rough man, the waiter did not dare to disobey him, so he had to apologize and said with a smile: "You can do whatever you want at night. When you come to our store, it's like going back to your own home." After saying that, he followed behind like a follower and watched the thick man choose a seat by the window and sit down. I cursed secretly in my heart: A rough man still wants to learn some elegant tricks to look at the street scene. It's just a big man wearing embroidered shoes, which makes people laugh to death.
Although the waiter was sneering in his heart, his face was very sophisticated. There was no trace of shame on his face. Instead, he nodded and bowed and asked: "What would you like, our distinguished guest? There is freshly cut beef in the shop. I don't know..."
The big man didn't look at the waiter. He just looked out the window and watched the other two men entering the Jinbao Gambling Hall one after another. He said: "Cut two kilograms of beef and make a pot of good wine." Eat with me first,"
The waiter said: "Okay, okay, do you want anything else? The top dish in the shop is..."
"Where does all this nonsense come from? If anyone wants to eat your food, just cut it into some meat. Shut your mouth and stop being upset."
The waiter was scolded by this man and felt unhappy. He smiled and immediately threw the white cloth over his shoulder and said in his heart: "What kind of guest have I never seen before? Even Master Wu has never been so domineering. Why do poor people get so arrogant? If you can't afford the first dish, just don't step through this door as soon as possible." The waiter glanced at the big man who was sitting by the window and kept looking at the street, and snorted coldly. , stepped down,
