There is no organization in the world that is longer-lived and more ubiquitous than Jianghu. It can be as small as ordinary people's alleys in the streets or alleys, or as large as the red walls and green tiles of high-ranking officials' temples. Wherever there are people, there will be Jianghu.
Human nature dictates. Li Huqiu once tried to withdraw from the arena, but in fact he just retreated from one arena to another. When people are floating in the arena, who can do it by themselves? Exiting the arena can only be a beautiful dream.
Li Huqiu, who walked out of the treacherous and cruel old world of thieves, walked into the world of human society and sophistication. Since he couldn't escape, he had to enjoy it. The young thief king did not appreciate Zhang Yongbao's domineering style of traversing the world.
I like Linghu Chong's "Swordsman" and think that is the kingly way of being in the world. Being in the world is like going through a maze. Zhang Yongbao kicks and rolls around in a straight line, but Li Huqiu likes to use his brain and enjoy it, and just go through it while having fun.
Okay. The premise of this way of playing is that you must be knowledgeable and capable.
The middle-aged fat man pretended to be a gangster from Yanjing, but Li Huqiu had already known from his speech, behavior and special marks on his body that he belonged to another sect among thousands of sects.
There are thousands of doors and five doors, one of which is the Burglary Door. The symbol is a flying swallow tattooed on the tiger's mouth in the door. The main business is naturally theft. Besides the Burglary Door, there is another door, but it is mainly about cheating.
It’s called the Scam. Fraud, blackmail, deceit, and treachery. In short, no one in this sect tells the truth. From deceiving children to deceiving the elderly to defrauding patients of life-saving money, the Scam is a truly evil organization with no bottom line.
There are rumors in the world that the person who founded this sect is not a treacherous and treacherous person. The rule of the sect is to tattoo a branch of red plum on the wrist. The meaning is that the plum blossoms have bloomed since the snow, and the flowers are not visible, only the faint fragrance. It is said that for many years
In the past, the initial function of this portal was to spy on the enemy in stealth. Later, the country changed hands, and as time went by, the iron-blooded organization that used plum blossoms as its mark to undercover enemy camps gradually became the notorious fraud door it is today.
From the time of Taizu of this dynasty, the living space of this sect was completely frozen, and it disappeared for a time. But when Taizong came to power, as soon as the door of the country was opened, they revived again in the tide of market economy. This was an incidental result of social rejuvenation.
Giveaway. Who told us that this is an era where the economy is in charge and those who have money have prestige?
The fraud sect is a tight-knit organization. One sect is divided into numerous groups specializing in fraud. The leader of the group is called "Ma Tou". The group is called "Leading Donkey" internally. This leader should have been called Donkey Tou because he is too
It sounds ugly, so we changed the name to "Ma Tou". Under the organization of "Ma Tou", the group members work together seamlessly. Some of them are looking for targets on the periphery, which are called "first explorations". Some of them come forward to chat with each other, which are called "careful inquiries".
'. But if the target is very cautious and not easy to approach the target, they will also think of other tricks, such as asking someone to pretend to be a hooligan to get close to the target. The person who does this job is called 'bridging'. The 'bridging' person comes out to find them.
If the target is in trouble, then 'Xu Xun' will come to fight against the injustice, thereby paralyzing the target's vigilance until the target's details are found out. As long as the target's details can be found out, the follow-up work will be easier to handle. The last person to appear is called 'Zhe Mei'.
When the scam comes to Zhemei, whether it is blind fortune-telling or gangster fraud, in short, as long as tactics are formulated based on the actual situation of the target, the scam can be guaranteed to be successful.
Li Huqiu has stepped into the big puddle of rivers and lakes from the day he set foot in Harbin. With more than ten years of experience accumulated, he has a clear understanding of all the ins and outs. He has already seen that the middle-aged fat man is
A 'careful inquiry'. This guy has been trying to find out the details of Li Huqiu since he sneaked into the carriage, but he didn't expect that the young man in front of him was already a top figure in the world, and his tricks had already been revealed. Li Huqiu...
On the way, he was talking nonsense and talking here and there, and the fat middle-aged man didn't say a single useful word.
Logically speaking, in this case, in accordance with the principle of never taking action if the identity of the person in the scam is difficult to find out, the fat man should give up. But so far, Li Huqiu could see that he had no intention of giving up. He knew it.
He was reluctant but insisted on giving it a try. This made Li Huqiu doubt the purpose of this guy.
He originally thought that they were all fellow gangsters, and they would be exposed as soon as they were single. There was really no need to get into a situation where they could only meet each other, so he showed off his skills when they met, and never revealed the details along the way. This fat man can not only deceive people but also
The middle man got to the position of 'Inquiry', and he was not stupid. He should have noticed that Li Huqiu was not easy to mess with. Under such circumstances, the fat man still refused to give up the task, get out of the car and leave. This only meant one thing, he
Had to do it!
Li Huqiu half-jokingly asked the middle-aged fat man if it was fun? The fat man looked at the cold light flashing in his bright eyes, and was frightened. He lowered his head and thought to himself: This kid is not old, but he is a
The old rivers and lakes are full of ghosts and ghosts, and they still have skills and don't know what path they are going to take. If it weren't for the characteristics of this little foreign woman and the target that the man is looking for, and the price of finding the target is so high,
I really want to get out of the car and leave right now. Hey, people die for money and birds die for food. This kid is not easy to mess with, but he has to see what he is doing.
The fat man said: "Yes, there are many interesting places in Quancheng. Unfortunately, the parking time is too short, so we only have time to buy some food."
Li Huqiu nodded: "Then what are you waiting for?"
Nina clapped her hands and said, "Come on, go buy food. I want everything he just said." This sentence was the longest sentence Fatty heard Nina say. Although the accent was weird, the pronunciation was very clear, like this
The language skills are not like those of a foreigner who has just arrived in China for two months. This is obviously inconsistent with the target person.
Li Huqiu took Nina's little hand and followed the fat man. The three of them got off the car and walked out of the platform, walking all the way south. The fat man looked like he knew the way and took them to the Quancheng store.
In front of the century-old Dabao shop, the fragrant smell of steamed buns wafted far away. Nina let go of Li Huqiu's hand and ran over to take a look excitedly. Li Huqiu followed her with a smile, as if he really didn't notice the fat man.
Secretly gesturing to another customer buying steamed buns, he whispered in Nina's ear: "When we go back soon, this fat guy will definitely have a stomachache and need to go to the toilet." Nina didn't hear the reason, and her attention was focused on it.
On the buns, I didn’t care.
When walking back after buying food, Li Huqiu and Nina were walking in front. The fat man behind them suddenly bent down and covered his stomach, screaming in pain. Li Huqiu turned around and said with a smile: "Hey, my stomach doesn't feel good, I need to go to the toilet."
"Hurry up, there happens to be a public toilet nearby." The fat man was stunned for a moment, then he nodded in agreement, and then hurriedly left with a fist in his arms. Nina looked at the fat man's back as he hurried away, and asked curiously: "He
How could you have known about stomachache so long ago? Do you know anything about medicine?" Li Huqiu said with a smile: "I can only treat people like him." Nina blinked her big eyes and rolled her eyes twice without thinking about this sentence.
What do you mean? You just need to see a doctor. Why do you say you only treat one kind of person?
Back in the carriage, Nina happily packed up her refilled bags. She suddenly raised her head, slapped her forehead excitedly, and said, "I understand what you just said. That fat man is a bad guy. He doesn't even know what he means."
Not sick! Right?" Li Huqiu smiled and said: "The answer is correct, but there is no prize." Nina thought for a while and asked: "He came to steal things?" Li Huqiu shook his head. "Then he is a liar.
?" Li Huqiu replied with a smile: "Even if it is, it doesn't look like he came to us to defraud us. He can see that my money is not easy to deceive."
There was a notice on the radio that the train was about to leave. Li Huqiu looked out the window. Nina was a little worried and a little disappointed, and said: "He won't come back?" Li Huqiu shook his head gently, with a look of confusion on his face.
, said nothing, but denied Nina’s guess.
With a crash, the carriage door was opened, and a middle-aged fat man walked in, sweating profusely. This time, he was not alone. Behind him was a woman with a beautiful appearance, a graceful figure, and a very fashionable dress. As soon as the fat man entered the door, he explained:
"I met an acquaintance when I came out of the toilet just now. I was very happy. I chatted for a few more words, but I forgot about you. I didn't remember you until the train was about to leave. No, this is her. We are both from Yanjing.
, the train I took was a coincidence, do you think it was a coincidence?" After that, he took out four "Four Great Men Queuing" tickets from his pocket and handed them to Li Huqiu, "Brother, for your convenience, here is the ticket money, together with me
I’ll give it all to you.”
Li Huqiu took it casually and said: "We are all walking on the road. It is convenient for us to be with others when we go out. I am not short of these two money. It will take a whole day to get to Yanjing on this bumpy road.
I don’t have a place to sleep, but it’s enough for this eldest sister, just treat it as a friend.” This sentence is pun intended to remind these two people that they are also Taoists, and if you don’t cause trouble for me, I won’t.
Your troubles have really made me anxious, and you will suffer the consequences.
The fat man was a little embarrassed after hearing this, and stood there at a loss. He heard the woman behind him say: "Come on, Lao Wang, you've already leaked, so don't pretend to be there. Brothers have a lot of tricks. We can't do this."
People don't take this little trick seriously." As she spoke, the woman came over, with a scent of fragrance blowing into her face. She smiled slightly, revealing her dimples, and said, "On the road just now, I heard Lao Wang say that brother, you are righteous. When we meet,
Look, it’s true. We are all on the road. We should keep our words to ourselves. It’s inappropriate to tell us our family background when we meet for the first time. But seeing how generous you are, brother, I’ll make you a friend, sister. Let me introduce myself, Qianjiao Mei.
It is not open alone, it looks like snow in the distance, and there is a faint fragrance. I am the one known as the eighth sister in the family, the 'horse head' of Fatty's group."
Li Huqiu was slightly stunned when he heard this. He was quite surprised that the other party no longer concealed his identity and cut him directly. He didn't expect that this delicate woman was actually the 'horse head' of the scammer. He was stunned for just a moment.
After a while, his expression remained as usual, he cupped his fists and said: "Red paper umbrella, flower robe, spring flowers are blooming, the swallows are gone, my brother is a guest who has left home outside the door, and the golden basin washes his hands and is no longer on the road."
After hearing this, the woman quickly glanced at Li Huqiu's hand with a look of confusion on her face. The words she just said were exactly the code words commonly used by people who cheat, and what Li Huqiu answered was "the people who cheat"
Code words used when dealing with outsiders. The woman couldn't help but feel a little confused when she heard that Li Huqiu's black talk was authentic, but she didn't have the unique mark of a burglar on her hand.
Li Huqiu noticed that she was looking at his hands, and took the initiative to spread his hands and said: "I am just a small person in the family, and I am not qualified to get the Feiyan tattoo."
Although the 'Eighth Sister' was doubtful about the authenticity of Li Huqiu's words, she didn't care about it anymore. Jianghu people have their own rules of survival. The less you know about unnecessary things, the better. The reason why she came to her in person was because
After listening to the fat man's report, she felt that there were many doubts, so she came over to confirm again. Based on what the fat man said, she judged that Li Huqiu was not an ordinary young man who had just entered the world, and knew that the fat man's identity had been revealed.
.I wanted to come to Panpan Daoer to see if there was any other way to find out if the girl that boy was bringing was the one I was looking for.
The eighth sister smiled, waved her hand and said: "Where can't we make friends inside and outside the door? As long as we walk all the way, I heard Lao Wang say before that brother, you have some skills, and scared him to death. It must be extraordinary. Eighth sister, I
I'm a straight person and don't like to talk in roundabout ways. I want to ask you a few questions, brother, but I also know that you won't tell me easily. How about we make a bet? If I lose, you can do whatever you want. If you lose, answer me.
A few questions, this will not hurt the harmony, but also improve the loyalty of the world."
Li Huqiu looked at her big watery eyes, and there seemed to be a pair of small hooks in her eyes that were trying to attract people's soul. He smiled secretly in his heart and asked calmly: "What kind of gambling method?"
The eighth sister raised her chest slightly, showing a bit of grace, and said: "Brother just claimed to have washed his hands in a golden basin. This makes me very envious. I heard that the rules in your sect are stricter than ours, and it is not easy to get in."
, it’s even harder to retreat. I have no background behind me, and no skills in my hands. Don’t even dream of getting out of the hook. Sister, I happen to be able to do a few things on my hands. I’ll show you a show. As long as you can see through it or do it again,
Even if my sister loses, you can do whatever you want."
Nina heard this and shouted: "No."
Li Huqiu seemed not to have heard anything. He pondered for a moment, raised his eyes and looked at the eighth sister up and down. Until he looked a little uncomfortable, he smiled and nodded and said, "Okay, that's what I said!"
The eighth sister secretly let out a sigh of relief and thought to herself, why is this guy's eyes so weird? Just looking at her makes people feel hairy all over. But she doesn't know that with Li Huqiu's level of martial arts as a great master, if he is really full of energy and focuses on her,
, that mountain of pressure was enough to make her collapse.
The train started slowly and gradually accelerated. Sister Eight glanced outside the car and said, "I have to perform my tricks outside. Brother, do you dare to get on the roof with me?"
Li Huqiu smiled slightly and did not answer her. Instead, he walked over and opened the window and made a gesture of invitation.
