In the early morning, Li Qinghe dragged his tired body back to the hotel.
Last night, when he was in Taikoo Cang, he was mentally tortured by reporters. When he finally finished and wanted to run away, he was invited to drink tea by the police station.
Drinking tea is, of course, understanding the situation.
How do you know that foreigners have set up warehouses there to engage in human smuggling business? There are corpses like this all over the ground. Do you know what the situation is?
Do you have any accomplices?
Fortunately, Li Qinghe remained tight-lipped and did not reveal the existence of Xu Ping. And under the stoppage of Inspector Liang, the senior police officials did not use the tiger bench or pepper spray on him.
Everything was according to the plan discussed between Xu Ping and him. He was released early in the morning. In order to commend him, the police station also rewarded him with a special reward of 300 yuan.
"Made, what kind of world is this? I'm neither big nor small, at least I can be considered a hero!"
"Pooh!"
Li Qinghe spat, and couldn't help but think: Boss Xu said not to let others know his existence, but where did he go? He couldn't have died in Taikoo Cang yesterday.
Thinking of the corpses there, he still felt a little palpitated.
"No, since Boss Xu has so much information, it's absolutely impossible for him to die. Could it be that his wife is here, and those corpses last night were his wife's handiwork?"
It seemed reasonable to think this way. After thinking about it, he came to the hotel room and knocked on the door.
"Boss Xu, I'm back."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a "yeah" sound inside.
"Woman, do you sound like a girl?"
Li Qinghe was stunned for a moment and suddenly became speechless. This Boss Xu is really... I suffered a lot in the police station, and he accompanied my wife to care for me. It's really...
Envy.
Just as he thought this, the door creaked open.
"Hiss!" Li Qinghe took a breath and saw something.
At the door of the room, Xu Ping stood with a smile on his face, looking behind him. Two girls were standing there with disheveled clothes and tired faces, next to them...
What's more, there is a child.
How long has it been, just one night, that the child has grown so big?
Li Qinghe was stupid.
Seeing his expression, I knew I had been misunderstood... Xu Ping rubbed his head and smiled, and said directly: "Yesterday, that brat and I slept on your bed."
Li Qinghe nodded and said in a deep tone: "Don't worry, Boss Xu. This is what I will tell the boss's wife when I meet her."
Yes, I was misunderstood again.
Unexpectedly, a scream came from behind. Yang Feiqiao's eyes widened and he stammered: "You, you, you are married?!"
Xu Ping turned to look at her, then turned to look at Li Qinghe who was nodding. Just when he was about to explain, his expression suddenly changed.
"Come in first, you have a tail behind you."
Li Qinghe was stunned for a moment and hurriedly entered the house.
Only then did he realize that there were two messy quilts on his bed, and he had really wronged Boss Xu.
For some reason, the Yang sisters were a little shy and afraid to look at this middle-aged man.
It's really embarrassing to be alone in a room with a man and have someone knock on your door and let you in.
Xu Ping was neither humble nor arrogant, and his expression did not change.
This is nothing, it’s not embarrassing at all. The most embarrassing thing in life is when your family happens to come in while doing hand exercises...
My spiritual sense went out and I saw two people walking up to the corner of the stairs.
The two of them ran straight to the door and met Xu Ping's eyes across the wooden board.
"That Li Qinghe just seemed to have entered this room."
"Knock on the door."
"Dong dong dong!"
"Li Qinghe, open the door, I know you are inside."
The two women knew what Xu Ping was capable of, and, if nothing else, they both had great skills.
Nature is not afraid.
But Li Qinghe was so frightened that he asked softly: "What should I do, Boss Xu? I didn't tell you at the police station, and now they are here."
Xu Ping smiled lightly and said: "What else can we do? Just open the door."
With that said, he stepped forward and opened the door.
"ah?"
In Li Qinghe's horrified eyes, the two people at the door were happy when they saw the door open. As soon as they rushed in, they made a sound of surprise.
"Strange, where are the people?"
"Did you hear someone talking downstairs just now?"
In the sight of the two of them, there was no one in the room, but Xu Ping and the others were standing in front of him.
The two Yang sisters have long been used to strange things. The City God has seen them before, so they won't find it strange if anything strange happens.
Next to them, the boy Yang Honghu looked at the eldest brother in front of him with admiration and even admiration, and sold the two sisters directly.
It would be great if he could be my brother-in-law, handsome, rich and powerful.
Li Qinghe felt that his outlook on life had been impacted. He waved his hands in front of the two of them, but the other party knew nothing about it.
He reacted suddenly, with excitement on his face.
It turns out that it is like this, it turns out that it is like this. No wonder the boss lady is obsessed with this young man. He also has powerful magical powers.
Thinking about it this way, the corpse in the ancient warehouse can be explained.
Sure enough, only a female devil who kills people without blinking an eye is worthy of the man in front of her who left more than a hundred corpses while talking and laughing.
Two plainclothes officers from the police station searched the room carefully. In fact, they could see clearly at a glance. After finding nothing, they left the place in confusion.
Li Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief, and Xu Ping turned to look at him and said, "How is it? How does it feel to be a great hero?"
Li Qinghe shook his head: "It's not very good. I'm still a businessman."
Businessmen only discuss business, not state affairs.
…
"Selling newspapers, selling newspapers!"
"Big news, big news. Foreigners set up a warehouse in Taikoo Cang to smuggle people. They were discovered by Li Qinghe, a wealthy businessman in Renjia Town, and Detective Liang Jingliang led them..."
The newspaper seller walked through the streets, holding the newspaper in his hand above his head, showing off the freshly baked newspaper in his hand.
When passing by a large opium den, a man inside shouted: "Boy, bring me a newspaper."
"Here, four copper coins."
"roll!"
"Okay."
When they reached the corner of the street, the boy selling the newspaper turned around and spat, "What's the air? You're a bastard from the Black Tiger Gang. What's the air? You prostituted my newspaper for nothing. Sooner or later, you're going to die."
Guyan
The members of the Black Tiger Gang glanced at the newspaper. Li Qinghe had a silly smile on his face and a light flashed in his eyes.
He got on the rickshaw and hurried to Yanyulou. When he got off the rickshaw, the driver did not dare to ask for money and ran away in a hurry.
After the briefing, the newspaper was presented on the table of the gang leader Lei Gong.
On the tea stove next to it, the teapot was smoking lightly, the tongs were burning red, and the old snake was concentrating on making tea.
The man from the Black Tiger Gang glanced at the red fire tongs and said tremblingly: "My subordinates have met this Li Qinghe before. He is our supplier of wood. This time he came to the provincial capital to discuss the Ren family with Mr. Black Crow."
The one in town..."
"Silence!"
No one knew better than him what kind of business was being done in Renjia Town. He just glanced at it and gave instructions to the only adopted son beside him, Old Snake:
"Go, I want to see him before dark today."
The old snake held the teapot, poured out a line of water, and said, "Don't worry, foster father, I will definitely not let him go."
The leader of the Black Tiger Gang drank the boiling hot tea in one gulp and exhaled heavily.
Shaoqing, he looked at the adopted son next to him, frowned and asked: "Why are you still not moving? What are you waiting for?"
Seeing him drink all the tea in one gulp, the old snake laughed sadly: "I'm waiting for my adoptive father, you go to hell!"
As he spoke, the hot teapot in his hand hit the gang leader directly on the forehead, and the hot tea flowed down the top of his head and onto his cheeks.
Lei Gong sat on the same spot and did not move. Instead, the boiling tea water spilled out and the old snake only blew air.
The man who was kneeling on the ground to report suddenly took out a dagger from his sleeve and stabbed Lei Gong in the chest.
Halfway through the sword stroke, a line of water spurted out from Lei Gong's mouth and sprayed all over his face. The hot tea immediately made him whole, and he covered his face and kept struggling.
Seeing this scene, the old snake was horrified, pulled out the red-hot tongs from the tea stove, and stabbed Thunder Gong's eyes in a decent manner.
Lei Gong was still sitting on the stool, stretched out his hand to grab it, and found that the red poker did not even seem to be burning in his palm.
"You want to kill me!"
When the old snake saw this scene, he was frightened: "No way, I have poisoned this tea, how come nothing happens to you?"
Lei Gong grabbed the fire tongs and stood up slowly: "Do you still remember when I adopted you as my adopted son, I told you the origin of the Black Tiger Gang?"
The old snake was stunned for a moment. Who still remembers what happened more than ten years ago?
Seeing Lei Gong pressing closer, he hurriedly put down the poker, reached for his waist with his backhand, and took out a Mauser gun.
"boom!"
The bullet was shot from the barrel of the gun, and the old snake was full of confidence. No matter how high your Lei Gong martial arts is, you can't withstand this blow.
"Whoa!"
Lei Gong stretched out his left hand and grabbed it suddenly, holding the bullet in his palm.
"you you you……"
The old snake man's claws were numb, and he turned around to run away. He only heard the whistling of the wind behind him, and the bullet he shot was thrown back and passed through his chest.
"I said that I was bitten by a black tiger and became invincible in the world. That's why I founded the Black Tiger Gang. Why don't you believe it?"
As he spoke, Lei Gong's body suddenly swelled, and there seemed to be a devouring tiger hiding in his eyes. A tiger roar sounded out of thin air in the misty rain tower.
"Roar--"
…
Since the hotel was no longer available, Xu Ping took the Yang sisters and Li Qinghe, who covered his face with a mask, directly to the City God Temple.
"So, in fact, you are the boss's wife, and you are the boss's wife."
On the way, Xu Ping also told the truth to Shopkeeper Li, which also made Yang Feiqiao, who had always been depressed, smile.
Xu Ping had just walked into the temple and when he heard these words, he almost didn't fall due to his superb moral skills: "I am me, she is her, she is mine...forget it, I can't explain it to you."
Li Qinghe leaned over again, squinting his eyes, and his flattering smile could be seen: "Boss Xu, please teach me two tricks. I have become the target of public criticism now. If I don't do it, I will be tricked by some big boss."
died."
"Before you leave the provincial capital, stay in this City God's Temple to make sure that no ghosts or ghosts dare to trouble you."
When Li Qinghe heard this, he hurriedly took out a few pieces of gold, threw them into the merit box, held three sticks of incense in his hand, and kept praying.
After looking around the City God's Temple, the temple leader recognized Xu Ping and directly invited him into the back hall and arranged accommodation for a few people.
This time it's one room per person.
Xu Ping sent off the temple blessings and was just about to go into the room to rest when Yang Feiqiao called him from behind, "Xu, Brother Xu, I want to ask you something."
Xu Ping frowned: "You say."
Yang Feiqiao pondered for a moment, then summoned up his courage and said, "Honghu likes you very much, can you accept him as your apprentice?"
Accepting a disciple...Xu Ping thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Sorry, I don't know how to teach others."
He is still self-aware. He who became a monk on the way and relied solely on playing tricks is not as good as Uncle Jiu, who came from an orthodox academic background and already has a set of procedures for how to teach his disciples.
Moreover, even though Uncle Jiu had accepted three apprentices, none of them had been ordained. It was just one-sided, and Maoshan could not agree on whether they recognized it or not.
If you accept a disciple by yourself, isn't that not misleading others' disciples?
As expected, he was rejected. Yang Feiqiao had already been mentally prepared, but his face darkened and he said, "I'm sorry, it was me who was abrupt."
Xu Ping said: "No, the main reason is that I really don't know how to teach others."
If you want me to teach him, then I can only teach him to kill people. But if I kill others, I can get a reward. If he kills others, he can only get a corpse, which may be his own.
Yang Feiqiao hesitated for a while and didn't speak again. Xu Ping thought for a while and asked, "Your brother has been rescued. Where are you going to go next?"
Yang Feiyan is a brainless person, and her principles of life are basically the same as Xu Ping's. The most important thing is to be happy, and don't care about anything else.
Therefore, the burden of taking care of my younger siblings undoubtedly falls on this small body in front of me.
"Probably, we should go back to Renjia Town and open a rice roll shop." Yang Feiqiao said thoughtfully, "There are not so many fights there, and it is suitable for a stable life."
Xu Ping nodded: "That's right. You can wait a few days. By then my merchant ship will arrive and I can take you on a ride with the wind."
"What about you?" Yang Feiqiao suddenly raised his head and asked.
Xu Ping was stunned for a moment, looked at the endless stream of pilgrims outside, and said, "I still want to take a good look at this world."
…
At noon, Xu Ping left the Chenghuang Temple alone and went straight to Baitong Trading Company.
I still remember the letter Shi Jian, the great disciple of Maoshan, wrote to Uncle Jiu, asking him to meet at Baitong Trading Company.
His trip had two purposes.
The first is to see if Uncle Ninth is here, tell him the plan for the evening, pay attention to his senior brother, or ask him to help guard outside the formation.
Secondly, I wanted to meet that Shi Jian.
Baidu Trading Company, as the name suggests, Baidu.
The goods traded are complete and extensive. It is a joint venture between local businessmen and foreigners, selling goods from provincial capitals and even the country overseas.
In terms of architecture, this Baitong Trading Company is also a standard European-style building. It has white exterior walls and is as high as four or five stories. At first glance, it seems a bit glaring.
Entering through the gate, there are quite a few merchants coming and going inside.
Some were sitting on the sofa, holding cigars and talking about business, some were chatting with each other, and there was a foreigner in a suit with a little red eyebrows who was staring at Xu Ping who came in with a white coffee cup on the floor.
Coffee was spilled on the floor.
Xu Ping also noticed him, raised his head towards the vampire named Karl, and motioned for him to go to the corner next to him to chat alone.
