The table next to the window on the second floor is a good place to enjoy the river view.
Bai Fu asked Ding Dong: "Where is third brother?"
Ding Dong said: "Mengzi said that the third brother is in charge, and he will soon become the master of the banished immortal building. He can't take care of us now. He will come up to treat us to a drink later."
…
There are two guards guarding the stairs from the fourth floor to the fifth floor of the "Exalted Immortal Tower".
The entire fifth floor was covered, and there were only three people in the huge room. On the Eight Immortals table in the center of the room, Qu Sanjiang and a middle-aged scribe sat facing each other. Behind Qu Sanjiang, a sturdy man stood with his hands crossed.
The middle-aged scribe's eyes were like a hawk and his voice was like a jackal: "Ah, this business is very profitable, far better than your current business. It would be a pity not to do it."
Qu Sanjiang replied calmly: "Thank you, Master Xu, for your kindness. It's just that I'm old. I'm content with doing my current business, and I don't have the energy to expand my territory. Whether this business is profitable or not has nothing to do with me. I can't do it because
Greed has killed his brothers."
The middle-aged scribe stood up and poured tea for Qu Sanjiang and said, "Ah, this business needs your support. Without your nod, it won't be successful!"
Qu Sanjiang said calmly: "You think too highly of me, old man, and now I am your world."
The middle-aged scribe still refused to give up, and his eyes quickly swept across the room, as if hoping to get someone's support. He rolled his eyes and said: "How about this, I will increase the interest rate, you six and I four?"
Before Qu Sanjiang could answer, the strong man behind him stepped forward and said softly: "Godfather, how about we think about it first and make a long-term plan?"
Qu Sanjiang slammed the tea cup, turned his head and glared fiercely and coldly. The strong man's heart tightened, he was at a loss, and he hurriedly retreated.
The middle-aged scribe's eyes flashed and he noticed a crack within them.
Qu Sanjiang looked at the middle-aged scribe, smiled coldly, and said: "It makes Leader Xu laugh. Today's young people are becoming more and more unruly. They actually interrupt their elders and meddle in their own business. My rejection is very clear. I'm sorry,
I disappoint you. The reason why I am willing to see you is to show my respect for Caiyi Club. Although I, Qu Sanjiang, am a man on the road, and I also engaged in robbing families and homes when I was young, I also have my principles, trafficking in women and
I will never do such a business that harms the child's nature and destroys his conscience!" After that, he walked away.
The middle-aged scribe stood up quickly, asked the old man to stay, and laughed and said: "Don't be weird, I don't dare to make you angry. I already know what I want. No more talk, no more talk, let's have tea." After that,
, let the guard at the door greet you and serve the food.
…
After the last dish was served, Chen Honghu wiped his hands dry, poured wine, and drank two cups with his master. This was his master's habit after cooking.
Honghu glanced at the waiters who were serving the dishes today. He didn't even recognize one of them. It shouldn't have happened. There were dozens of people in this restaurant. Which one of them didn't he know?
Honghu asked: "Master, do you know this new guy?"
"I don't know, maybe the shopkeeper hired me today?" The master narrowed his eyes, took a sip of wine, and answered wordlessly.
Honghu looked at the waiter, always feeling that something was wrong. It was obvious that it was his first day, because his way of serving food was quite amateurish. The iron plate of the Teppanyaki fish was piping hot, and he actually served it directly with his hands.
Put the iron plate in the food box!
No, he's not an amateur, he's not afraid of being burned at all! With this kind of skill, he should be a master of iron sand palm! What's more wrong, how can such a master be a buddy?
Honghu regained his energy and observed more carefully: This person is steady and quick in movement. When he lands, his toes touch the ground first, implying the Jiugong Bagua footwork. Although he is dressed as a clerk, he deliberately uses a clerk's headband to cover his high protrusions.
raised temples.
In the flash of lightning, Honghu's mind turned several times.
Honghu asked: "Master, which room are these dishes sent to?"
The master was already tipsy and replied lazily: "Fifth floor, my boss is treating us today and we've booked the entire floor."
The boss treats Honghu very well and takes special care of him. He not only invites the best master in Banxianlou to teach him, but also asks the shopkeeper to cultivate him deliberately. Honghu has long secretly wanted to repay his kindness. Things are strange today, and Honghu has a bad feeling. He
He stopped the waiter Mengzi and whispered a few words quickly. Then he took the food box from his hand and carried the food upstairs himself.
On the stairs leading to the fifth floor, the guards checked the food boxes and searched the person. After finding nothing unusual, they let the waiter into the private room.
The waiters brought the dishes in the food boxes to the Eight Immortals table in turn. After placing them properly, they exited the room one by one. The last ones to enter the room were Honghu and the stranger. Honghu followed closely behind the stranger. He opened the food box gently.
, carefully took out the hot teppanyaki fish, and the moment he put it on the table, he suddenly picked up the iron plate and poured the hot soup on Qu Sanjiang's face. There was a short and thin stick stuck under the iron plate.
The assassin pulled out the dagger and stabbed Qu Sanjiang straight into the heart.
Qu Sanjiang reacted quickly, rolled up his long sleeves, and scooped up the hot soup. Then, he touched the Eight Immortals Table with his feet and flew backwards to avoid the assassin's dagger.
The assassin jumped up from the table of the Eight Immortals and rushed towards him with a knife.
Qu Sanjiang heard a loud roar from behind him: "Don't be afraid, godfather, I will save you!"
The strong man behind Qu Sanjiang rushed out like a gust of wind and seemed to reach out to support his body. The moment he lifted him up with his palm, the strong man turned his palm into a fist and hit Qu Sanjiang hard in the back of the heart.
Unprepared, a mouthful of blood spurted out, his body leaned forward, and his chest hit the tip of the assassin's knife.
Seeing that Qu Sanjiang was about to die on the spot, he saw a figure rushing in front of the assassin and punching the tip of the assassin's knife. The dagger was hit by the punch, changed direction, brushed against the old man, and cut through his outer gown. Qu Sanjiang avoided the blade and struck heavily
He fell down beside the Eight Immortals table and fainted. This figure was none other than Chen Honghu. He had been wary of this strange man, and when he saw his whereabouts exposed, he quickly took action.
The assassin missed the first blow, spun around, and launched a second wave of attacks. Honghu also climbed up and fought desperately with the assassin. Honghu's ten-direction thunder boxing technique unfolded, as powerful as thunder, as fast as lightning, and every punch
When he comes out, he shouts fiercely. The faster his movements are, the louder the shout is, and the force is overwhelming.
