"Are you Qin Ziling from Hantie Zhangyuan?" the tall and thin man asked.
"Yes, who are you?" Qin Ziling nodded and then asked.
"Liao Sen from Youlongzhangyuan, have you ever heard of him?" Liao Sen said.
"It turns out to be Brother Liao from Youlong Zhangyuan. I've heard about his name for a long time. What's the matter?" Qin Ziling cupped his hands and said without much change in his expression.
When Liao Sen announced his name, he still had a strong aura that forced him away. His sharp eyes were fixed on Qin Ziling, but he couldn't see anything unusual.
"I heard that you had conflicts with Yan Kui from the Yama Gang and my junior brother Zhuang Gaochi before." Liao Sen asked.
"That's right! The owner of the 'Hua Yun' gouache and rouge shop paid me money, so I have to stand up for her. What? I heard that both Yan Kui and Zhuang Gaochi were in trouble. Brother Liao didn't suspect that I was that bad.
How courageous are you? Even if I have that much courage, I still have to have the ability!" Qin Ziling said with a trace of self-deprecation on his face.
"That's true." Liao Sen nodded, then stepped out of the aisle, made a gesture of invitation and said, "I'm sorry to offend you, Brother Qin, please."
"Brother Liao, you are serious. It is human nature to be confused when you are concerned." Qin Ziling replied in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, and then passed by Liao Sen and Liao Sen calmly.
Liao Sen looked at Qin Ziling's leaving back, and his face suddenly darkened. He put his toes on the ground, jumped up, put his five fingers together like a knife, and slapped him on the back. At the same time, he shouted coldly: "
Look at the palm!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Ziling "hurriedly" rolled around to avoid the slap, then stood up suddenly, stared at Liao Sen with a look of "shock and anger", and asked: "What are you doing?"
"Nothing? I just felt itchy suddenly and wanted to fight with Brother Qin." When Liao Sen saw Qin Ziling, he rolled on the spot in embarrassment and then looked "shocked and angry". Although he had already expected it,
Still a little disappointed, I just replied with a smile on my face.
He was just a cowhide-level warrior who had exhausted the potential of the Cold Iron Master. If it weren't for the case of the Yan Luo Gang and Zhuang Gaochi, and no suspicious characters could be found, he would not have suddenly tested Qin Ziling on a whim today.
"Brother Liao, are you bullying our Hantie Zhangyuan? If your hands are itchy, I will help you with a few tricks!" At this moment, the curtain of the third private room opened, and Zheng Xinghan appeared with an ugly face.
On the corridor, Yu Yan and Muxuan were followed behind them, and they glared at Liao Sen.
"Brother Zheng is joking. Your Hantie Academy is full of talents, and recently you have a genius like Nangong Yue. How can I dare to bully your Hantie Academy because you have no one? I just suddenly felt itchy, haha!"
After Liao Sen said this, he laughed loudly and turned around and went downstairs with the people around him.
Zheng Xinghan watched Liao Sen and his men turn around and go downstairs, his expression getting increasingly ugly.
After a while, Zheng Xinghan turned to Qin Ziling and asked: "Are you okay? Why did you have a conflict with Liao Sen? This man is a notoriously ruthless guy in Youlong Zhangyuan. You should be more careful in the future."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Zheng. I'm fine." Qin Ziling waved his hand and glanced downstairs through the guardrail of the corridor, a chill flashing deep in his eyes.
"It's okay, let's go into the private room." Zheng Xinghan didn't ask any more questions, nodded, turned around and entered the private room.
The first to arrive are Zheng Xinghan, Muxuan, Yu Yan and Qin Ziling.
Soon Shen Xiujin, Luo Yuke and Lu Taiqiang also arrived one after another.
"Brother, since everyone is here, let's get down to the table and start!" Lu Taiqiang, the last one to arrive, glanced at the private room and said to Zheng Xinghan.
"Nangong Yue will definitely not come. I heard that today Lin Zhengji hosted a banquet for some rising talents recognized in various martial arts schools in the outer city, and Nangong Yue was also on the list. Lin Zhengji is one of the top six in our Fangshan County. One of the young masters, he is already a Yunjin martial arts master at the age of 23, and his father Lin Tianrui has just been appointed as the captain of Dongcheng School. It can be said that among the six young masters, except for the Pang family, Lin Zhengji has been the most popular recently. . He invited Nangong Yue to a banquet, how could Nangong Yue not go?" Lu Taiqiang said.
"That's right, Nangong Yue went to attend Mr. Lin's banquet and won't be able to come tonight." Luo Yuke took over and said, with a look of pride on his face.
Lu Taiqiang frowned, looked at Zheng Xinghan and said, "Brother, why didn't Nangong Yue mention it to you?"
"Haha, it's the same thing with Junior Sister Luo! Everyone, come to the table." Zheng Xinghan's face changed slightly, and then he said haha.
"What's the same? You are the senior brother, and all the daily affairs of Hantie Zhangyuan are under your control. You also arranged this New Year's dinner. If Nangong Yue can't come, he has to tell you in advance. He is like this It's obvious that I don't take your senior brother seriously." Mu Xuan said angrily.
"Okay, it's common for people to be careless and forget. Let's serve them all." Zheng Xinghan said with a serious face.
Muxuan's lips moved and she was about to speak. Qin Ziling next to her nudged her with her elbow, and Muxuan swallowed the words that came to her lips belatedly.
Everyone came to the table, because when Nangong Yue made a fuss, except for Luo Yuke, everyone else not only didn't think that Nangong Yue went to Lin Zhengji's banquet, but as brothers from the same discipline, they were all a little annoyed with Nangong Yue's behavior, so Even though the food and drinks were served, the atmosphere was a bit dull.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Lu Taiqiang looked up at the "Hua Yun" gouache and rouge shop across the street. He had an idea in his heart and said to Qin Ziling with a hint of ambiguity: "Junior brother Qin, I heard that the 'Hua Yun' gouache and rouge shop across the street The owner of the shop, Yun Lan, is a charming beauty, and she is also very good at making money. She has run the 'Hua Yun' gouache and rouge shop prosperously, but there are many people around her who are staring at her, hoping to gain both personal and financial benefits."
"You are handsome and talented, and now you happen to be registered in the 'Hua Yun' gouache and rouge shop. You have a head start. You should go to this rouge shop more often, so as not to miss this good opportunity."
Women love to gossip, and men love to talk about beauties.
Lu Taiqiang started with these words, and the atmosphere in the private room suddenly became lively, and everyone turned their attention to Qin Ziling.
"That's right, that's right. If I really marry Miss Yun Lan, Junior Brother Qin will get both people and wealth, and his life will be more prosperous in the future." Yu Yan, who had always been as taciturn as a stone, said with his eyes shining brightly for the first time.
"Let me tell you, Junior Brother Qin has been blessed with good fortune recently. If you don't miss this opportunity, you should never come back again. You should really visit rouge shops more often." Shen Xiujin said while waving his paper fan.
This person is the most handsome among them all, and his temperament is also refined. Like Lu Taiqiang, he likes to shake his fan no matter what.
Lu Taiqiang did it to show off his status as a young master, while Shen Xiujin pretended to be gentle, and for this reason he attracted many brothel girls. In fact, he didn't have much ink in his stomach at all.
"How do you say this?" Even Muxuan became more energetic this time and asked quickly.
"There used to be many people who coveted Miss Yunlan, and one of them was Zhuang Gaochi from Youlongzhangyuan. Recently, I have had nothing to do, so I heard a lot of gossip in the teahouse." Having said this, Chen Xiu Jin waved his fan and started selling off.
"That's a teahouse, I think it's a brothel." Lu Taiqiang revealed unceremoniously.
Everyone laughed when they heard this. Shen Xiujin just blushed slightly and didn't feel anything embarrassing.
We are all brothers who have been in the same school for several years, and basically know everything about it, and it is common for rich and capable men in this world to visit brothels.
"Senior Brother Lu, both junior sisters are here, it's not kind of you to say this!" Shen Xiujin said.
"Tch, you think I don't know your virtues!" Muxuan curled her lips.
"Ahem!" Shen Xiujin coughed twice, and then continued: "By the way, I was in a brothel, bah bah, I heard a lot of gossip in the teahouse, saying that Zhuang Gaochi had been coveting Miss Yunlan's wealth before. , wanted to take charge of the Rouge Shop, but Miss Yun Lan invited Junior Brother Qin instead, so Zhuang Gaochi secretly used the Yama Gang to cause trouble."
"Then you also know that Junior Brother Qin and Yan Kui had a fight. As a result, the day before the fight, the Yan Luo Gang was almost wiped out. At first, everyone thought it was the military advisor Y Being found in Xianhe River, there is obviously someone else behind the scenes."
"You guys think that Junior Brother Qin is so lucky? If the Yan Luo Gang hadn't been blamed, I don't know what the outcome of the fight between Junior Brother Qin and Yan Kui would have been! Even if he won, with Yan Kui's fierceness, things might not have happened. It will be settled so easily."
"This is still the first one. The second one, ahem, I heard from the storyteller in the teahouse that later on, Zhuang Gaochi refused to give up and continued to pester Miss Yun Lan. Once, he directly threatened Miss Yun Lan in the store, which was just fine. He was hit by Junior Brother Qin. I heard that Junior Brother Qin drew his sword to help when he saw an injustice, scolded Zhuang Gaochi in person, and had a conflict with him, and then Zhuang Gaochi walked away angrily. Junior Brother Qin, this should be correct, right? "Speaking of this, Shen Xiujin looked at Qin Ziling specifically.
Qin Ziling nodded noncommittally, already understanding why Shen Xiujin knew so much about these gossips.
The girls from the brothel often visit the "Hua Yun" gouache and rouge shop, and the girl's family generally loves gossip, so naturally she knows the news.
"As it turns out, by coincidence, Zhuang Gaochi happened to be killed that day!" Shen Xiujin saw Qin Ziling nodding, waving his fan and continued.
"It turns out that Junior Brother Qin had a conflict with Zhuang Gaochi that day. No wonder Liao Sen stopped you just now and suddenly attacked you." Zheng Xinghan frowned when he heard this.
Zhuang Gaochi was shot to death in an alley more than a month ago. This incident had already spread in martial arts circles in the outer city. Zheng Xinghan had also heard about it, but he did not expect that Zhuang Gaochi had a conflict with Qin Ziling on the day he was killed. , and the fact that Yan Kui, who died earlier, deliberately bullied the "Hua Yun" gouache and rouge shop is also related to Zhuang Gaochi.
