Zhang Houhou talked to me for a while. From his words, I heard that Lei Yingxiong, like Xiaohu, wanted to throw out bait to lure people in the undercurrent to surface. But his method was different from Xiaohu, and the steps were different.
He planned it carefully. More than half a month after I met him, relevant information floated out from the Seven Columns near Changsha.
Qidaolan is a large-scale antique trading market. Since the mid-1980s, some people have set up stalls here. Gradually, it attracted many sellers and buyers, and the business grew bigger and bigger. Most of the transactions in Qidaolan were ordinary.
There are a lot of tile goods, but there are also experts among them. If you have a good eye and are willing to spend money, you can still find good things. This place is a mixed bag of good and bad, and the information is also the best. There are many brokers and second-hand dealers, some with long faucets,
People will also be sent to guard the seven fences for a long time.
The news must have been released under the instruction of Lei Yingxiong. Two days later, things started to go wrong there. People said that someone had placed a shocking piece of hard goods on the seventh column. Lei Yingxiong's people were building momentum inside and spreading the news widely.
, and it vaguely revealed information related to the bronze medal. This place was originally a news nest, and information about the bronze medal was spread through various channels.
After that, most of Lei Yingxiong's people dispersed into Qidaolan. A few of them with very poisonous eyes wandered around every day, and there were also people inside Qidaolan who were cooperating. There was no other way. Even if you wanted to lure people out,
The master behind the scenes will not show up in person. He can only grasp a line first and then touch it slowly.
I didn’t want to see Lei Yingxiong again, so many words were passed back and forth by Zhang Houhou. After doing a good job at the seven-lane fence, Zhang Houhou smiled as if he had eaten honey, and came to me to chatter for a long time. I held the tea cup.
He didn't say anything, but in his heart he wanted to kick him to death.
Zhang Houhou brought the meaning of Lei Yingxiong, because I personally dealt with Yinlian Lian when I was trading in Yuanshan, and the other party was deeply impressed by me, so Lei Yingxiong felt that if I showed up, Yinlian Lian would have better concentration.
I can't help but surface.
"Boss Wei, you can rest assured about safety." Zhang Houhou grinned from ear to ear, nodded and bowed and said: "We have a lot of people in Qidaolan, and we have friends there to take care of us. Mr. Lei means, Boss Wei and the brand
If the information leaks out together, that guy will actually show up."
"Get out of here!" The more I listened, the more annoyed I became. I couldn't help but yell: "You are you and I am me. Don't mix it up!"
No matter how disgusted I was, I still had to do what was put on my head. Xiaozhu and the others accompanied me to Qidaolan, settled in a shop that I had found in advance, and came out to show off every day. Immediately afterwards, Lei Yingxiong buried here
The people started to follow up and continued to lead the source of the information to this small shop. Who are the people hanging out in Qidaolan? Their noses are sharper than dogs. After a few days, the shop exploded, and people pretended to be selling them every day.
I was bored in the shop. I was sitting in the main hall, and like the waiter, people kept staring at me.
The shop looks normal, but everyone who comes here every day is closely watched. The people responsible for keeping an eye on them are people from Lei Yingxiong and people from Qidaolan. Many shops in Qidaolan like to do business with regular customers.
, so when a stranger appears, people here will notice it. If a stranger is pointed out secretly, Lei Yingxiong’s people will follow and touch the other person’s family background.
However, it is still very difficult to do this, because no one is stupid. The people who were caught by Lei Yingxiong's bait also knew it in their hearts. It's just that everyone was forced to make a risky move. So for many days in a row,
Things have not progressed at all. There are a few very special visitors who are locked at all times, but it is not yet known whether they are related to Gloomy Face.
After about a few days, a person who wandered around the shop was noticed. This person was probably in his thirties and was not tall. He only glanced at the shop a few times. The people at Qidaolan said this was a man.
He had never seen a stranger before. But Lei Yingxiong's men had good eyes. As soon as the stranger appeared, he could tell that he was a man who had practiced kung fu for many years. His waist was very thin and he had been rubbed hard since he was a child.
came out.
A stranger like this would be secretly checked, so as soon as the person came out, Lei Yingxiong's guy followed him. But a few hours later, the two guys were carried back, and the short stranger started to attack.
It was so heavy that it broke all the boy's hands and feet.
After that, a storm broke out. Lei Yingxiong's people were busy for a long time, and it was not until midnight that day that they pounced on the opponent. This matter had nothing to do with me at first, but I was still pulled out of bed by Zhang Houhou
shouted.
"Boss Wei, we have been restrained by brothers, four of them in total. Let's report to Mr. Lei. Mr. Lei said that you should meet the person in charge first."
"What do you mean?"
"The person in charge..." Zhang Houhou glanced at me secretly and said, "My name is Cao Shi."
"Cao Shi!"
I jumped out of bed all of a sudden, my sleepiness disappeared, and at the same time, there was still a sadness and anger emerging from the deepest part of my heart. Cao Shi, Cao Shi, did I really misjudge him? The old man has fallen in Jiangbei.
, and was controlled by Lei Yingxiong, but why was Cao Shi not in danger? He was still working. Not only that, being able to reach the seventh hurdle showed that he was still working along the line of bronze medals.
I immediately felt like I was being severely deceived and fooled. Cao Shi is the person I trust the most. No matter how many things happened to him that I couldn't understand, in the end I still firmly believed in him. I believe this
People will not betray the old man because of any external reasons or temptations.
But, I was really wrong.
One eye, the rejuvenation hidden in the Xixia bronze medal, the eternal life of eternal reincarnation. Is the temptation of this thing really greater than all else, can it make a person destroy all conscience and reason?
I walked out in a hurry, Zhang Houhou followed behind and said something else. Cao Shi brought a total of three people, all three of them were very powerful thugs. They were hiding in Xiaoli Village near Qidaolan. The short man
I came out to inquire about the news. But I had no intention of listening any more and rushed towards the place of arrest in a hurry.
When I was walking on the road, I was blown by the cold wind, and I woke up a lot, and my thoughts started to go back and forth. Cao Shi had been involved in this matter under the old man, so it was not surprising that he came to Qidaolan. It surprised me.
Yes, it was Lei Yingxiong’s attitude. What did he think? If Cao Shi was held down, why didn’t he take the lead in asking some questions? Instead, he handed the person directly to me? The previous situation of Lao Luo is a good example.
, Lei Yingxi was a good person and handed over Lao Luo because he couldn't get any valuable information from him.
With these questions, I first went to see the three guys Cao Shi brought this time. These three people were all in their thirties, and I didn’t know any of them. The anger in my heart suddenly couldn’t be suppressed anymore.
, these three are definitely not from Jiangbei. Cao Chen may be working alone or working for others, but the team he controls are all strangers.
Next, in another room, I saw Cao Shi. He was tied very firmly, and two guys were guarding him. Cao Shi looked a little old, and his eye sockets were sunken deeply, and he was obviously dark.
A lot. When he saw me, his eyes suddenly lit up, but then his eyes dimmed again, his mouth moved back and forth a few times, and he shouted in a bitter and bitter voice: "Master Tian."
At this moment, I didn’t know what I should do. Should I cry bitterly for my ignorance and gullibility? Or grab Cao Shi’s collar and scold him severely. I stood at the door for a long time, the monk and Zhang Houhou
Behind me, I turned back to them and told them to leave.
"Isn't this appropriate?" Both the monk and Zhang Houhou were a little worried.
"Bring a bottle of wine, something stronger, and you all can get out." As I spoke, I walked directly towards Cao Shi. Zhang Houhou hesitated behind for a minute, and finally asked the two guys to leave the house.
Soon, two unopened bottles of Niulanshan were placed on the table in front of Cao Shi and I. I slowly walked behind him and untied the rope for him. Cao Shi remained silent until the rope was untied.
After opening it, he still didn't look back, but gently moved his numb wrists that were bound.
I sat back down, opened a bottle of wine, poured a full glass, and handed it to Cao Shi with both hands. He looked at me, a little at a loss, and moved his dry and chapped lips.
"I offer you this glass of wine. I want to thank you for taking such good care of me since I was a child. You taught me something and made me understand some truths." I said it very sincerely and emotionally, holding the cup in my hand.
Shivering back and forth.
I had to be emotional. In my heart, I had respect and hatred for him. No matter where things went, I had to separate these things carefully, respecting him and hating him.
After drinking this glass of wine, everything will return to zero. I am me and he is him.
"Master Tian..." Cao Shi's eyes wandered hard over my face and the wine glass in front of me. I could see that he had lost a lot of weight, and his usual look was almost gone.
"Drink." I directly handed the wine glass almost to Cao Shi's eyes. It might be the first time he saw me like this, and he was a little scared. I held the wine glass and stopped moving, which made him feel that he had to accept it even if he didn't want to.
Cao Shi may have noticed what I meant. A small wine glass almost bent his arms. He stood there holding the wine glass, his eyes that were a little dry, like a river that was about to dry up.
.
"Drink!" I emphasized my tone again, holding the wine in his hand, but I was already a little drunk and going crazy.
Cao Shi paused for a long time and finally slowly drank the wine in the cup.
"I've finished drinking. I just want to ask you a question." I held back the tears that started to well up in my eyes, turned my face and asked, "Have you ever been sorry to the old man?"
