Meng Qingshan took the six accompanying men, while Hua Bushi took Li Hu alone. They each mounted their mounts and headed straight for Changsha City.
Changsha City at this time was very different from the time when Hua Bushi, Wu Yinghao and others went to "Happy Island" to gamble.
The whole city was in turmoil, and fighting and fighting occurred from time to time in the streets and alleys. Although the four alliances held their own territory, groups of wandering warriors continued to harass and raid, and many civilians also suffered.
It spread and there was chaos everywhere.
Under this situation, more than half of the shops in the city have closed down.
Therefore, when Meng Qingshan and Hua Bushi came to the small restaurant built on the ground in "Happy Island" and saw the "Closed for Three Days" sign hanging on the door, they were not too surprised.
At this time, everyone is thinking about saving their lives, even gamblers.
If no one comes to gamble, the casino will naturally close down. This is normal.
However, when a group of people jumped off their horses and approached the door of the small restaurant, they immediately discovered something was wrong. Meng Qingshan, Hua Bushi and Li Hu were all people with keen eyes and ears, and they immediately heard what was happening in this small restaurant.
There were actually more than ten people ambushed everywhere around the building. Li Hu could even tell from the long breathing of these people that none of the ambushers were mediocre!
They are stronger than those gangsters who cause trouble and raid in the city!
Second Master Meng winked, and six members of the "Dongting Gang" immediately drew their weapons from their sheaths, each occupying one side, and formed a circle to guard the surroundings. At this time, the door of the small restaurant creaked.
The inside was pushed open, and a middle-aged man wearing brocade clothes and a sword hanging from his waist came out of the door.
The middle-aged man glanced at everyone, then clasped his fists and said, "It turns out that Mr. Meng and Mr. Hua are here. Please be polite!"
This middle-aged man in splendid clothes is none other than the "Snowflake Swordsman" Hu Yanju whom Hua Bushi had met in the casino that day.
Hua Bushi returned the gift with his hand, but Meng Qingshan looked gloomy and said, "Brother Huyan has ambushed men around this small building, but are you going to deal with me?"
"Happy Island" is the largest casino in Changsha. It's normal to send people to guard it, but hiding their bodies and ambushing outside the building seems quite evil. Who in the world is willing to be secretly ambushed and raided by others? Meng Qingshan
Seeing this situation, I felt very unhappy.
"Snowflake Swordsman" Hu Yanju said: "Mr. Meng, don't get me wrong, the city has not been very safe recently, so our casino has made some arrangements outside the building. It is just for warning, and there is absolutely no intention to counterattack."
He waved his hand and said: "You all come out!"
But I saw sixteen figures flashing out from the surrounding eaves and corners. These people were tall or short, fat or thin, and their clothes were all different. They were all wearing casual clothes, but the weapons they held in their hands were different.
They were all made of four-foot-thick steel swords, and they carried a fierce aura. Even the elite members of the "Dongting Gang" seemed quite inferior compared to them.
Meng Qingshan frowned, his eyes were sharp, and he could tell at a glance that none of these sixteen people were Fan Fan. They wore different clothes, obviously to hide their identities, but the weapons they used were of the same standard, which also showed that they were all different.
They practice the same swordsmanship, not just random warriors recruited from all over the place.
The details of "Happy Island" are very mysterious. Hu Yanju, the "Snowflake Swordsman", had met Mr. Meng before, but he had never heard of the many powerful guards in the casino. As the leader of the largest gang in Changsha City
However, he didn't know that there was such a force in the city, and the surprise in Meng Qingshan's heart increased even more.
He glanced sideways at Hua Bushi, and saw that the young master also had a thoughtful look on his face, and he obviously noticed something unusual about it.
But I heard Hu Yanju say: "I wonder if you two came to our place to gamble? There has been too much chaos in the city recently, so our gambling house has been temporarily closed for a few days, but you are disappointed!"
Meng Qingshan said: "Brother Huyan, you are welcome! Today, Brother Hua and I are not here to gamble, but we want to meet the boss of your gambling shop and discuss a business deal with him. I wonder if Brother Huyan can introduce him to us?"
Hu Yanju said: "The proprietor of our shop left Changsha for a long trip half a month ago. He is not in the casino now. I'm afraid you two have to make the trip in vain. I'm really sorry!"
Meng Qingshan's brows furrowed even more tightly and he said: "So it's such an unfortunate coincidence, but I don't know when the proprietor will come back?"
Hu Yanju said: "The proprietor did not explain when he went out. I don't know when he will come back. I think it will be at least ten or eight days later."
His words seemed reasonable at first, but Meng Qingshan was able to find a flaw. The boss of "Happy Island" left half a month ago. Since there was no explanation, how could Hu Yanju estimate that it would take ten days and eight days?
to come back?
Second Master Meng immediately thought that if there weren't important people in the casino, why would he send sixteen swordsmen to guard the door? Therefore, the boss of "Happy Island" was probably down there, just making excuses not to meet him.
At that moment, Meng Qingshan said: "I have come all the way. Although I can't see the proprietor of your shop, I want to sit down in the casino below and have a few cups of tea. Isn't that convenient?"
A strange color flashed in Hu Yanju's eyes, and he said: "The casino has closed. There are no servants waiting downstairs, so it is not convenient to entertain distinguished guests. Why don't we let Hu invite you two to drink tea at the 'Mingxiang House' teahouse on the street over there?"
, you can also listen to some ditties and Pingtan, how about that?"
The more Hu Yanju refused to let the two of them in, the more Meng Qingshan was sure that there must be something wrong in the casino. His heart suddenly moved and he said: "Meng doesn't like listening to ditties the most. Today I just want to go to Happy Island and sit there."
Take a rest, it doesn’t matter if you have tea or not, Brother Huyan, there’s no need to refuse!”
He lifted up his robe sleeves, raised his legs and walked towards the restaurant's door, as if he was going to break in!
Hu Yanju was not willing to let him pass. In a flash, he blocked Meng Qingshan's way. His palm grasped the hilt of the long sword hanging at his waist. The sixteen swordsmen also immediately gathered together, lined up in a row, and blocked the way.
As he walked into the door of the restaurant, he held the dazzling steel knife in front of him, as if he was about to attack!
Hu Yanju shouted with a stern face: "I have already stated that the proprietor is not here, but Second Master Meng insists on forcing his way in. How can it be reasonable?"
Meng Qingshan sneered and said: "There is no place in Changsha that Meng cannot go to. Even if you are a dragon's pool or a tiger's den, Meng Qingshan will try it out today!"
Second Master Meng is nicknamed "Tiger Gut", but he always has a pleasant face on weekdays, has a figure like a big wooden barrel, and cares about a few taels of silver. He is more like a country squire who loves money than his life, rather than a wealthy person in the world.
It feels a bit unworthy of the name.
But it was at this moment that Meng Qingshan showed his intimidating momentum and revealed his true colors as a tyrannical and domineering man!
The purpose of Meng Qingshan and Hua Bushi's trip was originally to discuss with the owner of the casino, hoping to pay some price to win over this force, and to help the four factions alliance in the battle against the "Hengshan Sect" and "Paijiao" in a few days. Since
When negotiating a deal, it must be mutually consensual. It should not be so forceful. Even if the other party avoids it, there is no need to offend them, cause complications and create new powerful enemies.
But at this time, what Er Ye Meng was thinking about was no longer a deal, but hatred!
They didn't bring many people to visit this time. The casino owner didn't need to take such precautions at all. Even if he didn't want to cooperate with the Four Factions Alliance, he could just refuse in person. It was very strange that he didn't even dare to see him like this.
, there must be a ghost among them!
For several days, the "Dongting Gang" and the "Three Evils" have been searching day and night for traces of people in the devil's path inside and outside Changsha City. It can be said that most of Changsha City has been turned upside down.
Every inch of the place was searched, and the only thing that was not found was "Happy Island".
When Hu Yanju tried his best to refuse and refused to let them enter the casino, Mr. Meng immediately became suspicious, thinking that the seriously injured "Old Demon of Wusheng" might be hiding in the casino in front of him. No wonder they had been hiding in the casino in front of them.
No wonder Hu Yanju was so nervous because he couldn't find it. He would rather rebel and take action than let Meng Qingshan and his entourage go in and sit for a while.
Ma Wuhua died in the battle. Everyone in the "Dongting Gang" hated the devil, especially Mr. Meng the most. At this time, when he thought of the "Old Demon of Wusheng" hiding in the underground casino in front of him,
How could I hold myself back? I just wished I could rush in and take the old devil's life!
Only a "choking" sound was heard, and Hu Yanju's sword was unsheathed!
Facing the menacing Meng Qingshan, he swung his long sword and struck out! This swordsman of the "Mangshan School" who was so powerful in the past has really extraordinary moves. Although it is only one sword, it seems to be countless.
Ten sword lights flew out in all directions, and the stars formed a sword net in front of Mr. Meng, leaving him no room to cut through!
A month ago, Hu Yanju fought against Ma Wuhua in the casino hall. He was injured in one move. That was because they were competing in the internal strength of Qi. Ma Wuhua's internal strength was already extremely strong and he was ahead of the competition.
Only by taking action did he gain the upper hand. When it comes to martial arts moves, Hu Yanju's "Qian Zhongxue" swordsmanship is the martial arts of the "Mangshan School" and is by no means inferior to the superior swordsmanship of any famous sect.
Meng Qingshan's martial arts skills are certainly not as good as Ma Wuhua's.
The name of his martial arts is very special, called "Tiger Descending the Mountain".
There is a saying in the martial arts world that "the world's martial arts comes from Shaolin." This is of course not absolutely correct, but many external boxing techniques circulating in the world have something to do with the Shaolin sect, which is true. Meng Qingshan
The "tiger descending the mountain" is derived from "Shaolin Tiger Fist".
"Shaolin Tiger Fist" is not considered a superior martial art. In the Shaolin sect, it can only be considered an entry-level basic kung fu at most, and cannot be compared with the famous "Shaolin Seventy-two Special Skills". Because of this, "Shaolin Tiger Fist" is
It is quite popular in the world, and even the escorts in many escort agencies and ordinary instructors in martial arts schools can use both hands.
