In the night, the sounds of fighting still came from afar. Zhou Tong and Fulu, led by Tian Donghan, Yan Huan and others, gradually arrived in the northeast of the county and saw a temporary camp. Surrounded by large vehicles and prison cars.
After walking around, half of the people responsible for guarding the camp were officers and soldiers, and half were Zhuji's guards, Zi Yong.
Looking from a distance, many Green Forest people have been arrested in the prison van. These people were more or less injured, and some were even punched and kicked. The scene looked quite desolate. These people fell into
Many of these fields were due to Yan Huan's betrayal. After he met Zhou Tong, his mood changed drastically. Seeing this scene, his heart was boiling, his energy and blood surged, and his face turned red and white.
, there is shame and there is anger.
In fact, Yan Huan and Zhou Tong didn't have much real artistic transfer. However, over the years, Yan Huan regarded himself as a disciple of Zhou Tong. Even after making a statement, this was the thing he was most proud of. His whole family was captured before.
, the eldest son was killed, and he felt that he had no choice but to compromise. After meeting Zhou Tong, he was able to ignore everything. It can only be said that Zhou Tong's usual chivalrous and upright impression made him admire him so much.
Like many bandits in the north during the food shortage, they usually killed people and set fire to all sorts of things. But when Zhou Dong came to fight, they actually felt that they were willing to be robbed without any resentment. In addition to the fact that they could not defeat Zhou Dong, they did have some troubles.
The reverence from the heart is there.
Someone had already come to report Zhou Tong's appearance. When he entered the camp, he was greeted by a young master with a gun. His eyes were quite curious. Seeing his posture while walking, Zhou Tong couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
This is Zhu Biao who has been following Ning Yi. His martial arts is very strong. Among the younger generation, he is only slightly inferior to Chen Fan, Xigua, Yue Fei and others. Last time in Shandong, Zhou Tong and Ning Yi, Hongti
After the meeting, Zhu Biao and others had not seen him when they rushed over, which made him feel quite regretful.
Ning Yi was writing something by the light of a fire in a small wooden shed in the camp. The screams, scoldings, or crying and harassment of the green forest people around him did not affect him too much. When Zhou Tong and others approached,
. He put down the brush in his hand, stood up and came over here.
"Senior Zhou, Brother Fulu. What a coincidence, we meet again." The young scholar in Tsing Yi in front of me smiled and cupped his hands, "We have been separated from Shandong for several months, and I didn't expect to meet you two again here. Today is a double happiness.
where."
Curses came from the surroundings, coming from some Green Foresters who were locked up in the prison car nearby. Some people recognized Zhou Tong and were shouting something. They should be hoping that Zhou Tong could stand up for them. Yan Huan clenched his hands.
Fist, his blood-red eyes were staring at Ning Yi, and it seemed that he was about to rush towards Ning Yi. Zhou Tong stared at Ning Yi for a while. After scanning the surroundings, he also cupped his hands.
"I came here specifically for tonight's events, so it's not a coincidence."
"Senior Zhou is so direct." Ning Yi laughed.
Zhou Tong was still looking at the situation around him at this time. Among those prison cars, several of them, including the well-known old man Fang Su, were also beaten with bruises and bruises on their noses and faces, and their hands and feet were cut off. It was indescribable that these people and
We don’t have close friendships with Zhou Tong, but they probably know each other. Someone in the prison car still shouted adamantly: "Zhou Tong, you don’t have to plead for us, you just need to kill this devil..."
Zhou Tong's eyes were complicated and he sighed slightly. Next to him, Yan Huan said in a deep voice: "Ning Yi, my mentor is here, and you still don't regret it."
"When I talk to Senior Zhou, it's your turn to interrupt."
The night wind howled, the fire flickered, and mixed with the smell of blood, there was also the aroma of noodles being cooked in several late-night pots in the camp not far away. The atmosphere suddenly became stiff, and many people felt anxious.
Looking at the confrontation situation, one side is the "inner demon" who dominates the court, and the other side is the almost recognized number one person in the world in the green forest. No one knows that the two sides will suddenly attack in the next moment, but no matter what, at least
At this moment, almost everyone regarded both parties as beings on the same level. To be able to confront Zhou Tong like this, the inner demon was already a well-deserved big devil.
After a while, Zhou Tong spoke.
"In the past six months, Mr. Ning has devoted himself to planning for disaster relief in the north and south, bringing food to the disaster-stricken areas. Countless people have survived, and tens of thousands of families have Buddhas... For this, generations of people in the north and south of Zhou have thanked him."
When the old man said this, he bowed his hands heavily. The first half of what he said seemed to be addressed to the people around him, which made Yan Huan and others stunned. They had not been with Zhou Tong for a short time, and saw that the old man's eyes were indifferent, and they also
I don't know if he is being sarcastic or flattering - in their hearts, they naturally have such thoughts and luck.
When Zhou Tong finished speaking, Ning Yi also handed over his hand and said: "Senior Zhou's actions in the north have also been heard by this junior, which is quite admirable."
"My power is limited after all..." Unwilling to talk more about this matter, Zhou Tong simply said this. He glanced at the people next to him, but his words were lowered, so that the next voice could only be heard.
It was spread around for more than ten feet and did not spread.
"Li Heng was busy working for disaster relief, but in the end he was misunderstood by ignorant people. This incident will inevitably make everyone feel heartbroken. But the people here tonight are not all dirty rats. Some of them are indeed moral and public-minded, and they are just human beings.
Blinded, unable to tell the truth from the false. Many of these green forest people appear to be bright and heroic on the surface, but in fact their lives are very poor. The only thing they want in their hearts is face. It seems that Li Heng does not intend to
Kill them all tonight. If we meet again in the future, we should not humiliate them like this."
After he said this, he added: "I came all the way to stop this conference, but I didn't expect to encounter such a situation. With what happened tonight, they must have a grudge against Li Heng... But this matter is not
It's not that it can't be resolved. I still have some face among these people. If Li Heng is willing to let some of the innocent people go, I am also willing to lobby for mediation for Li Heng and tell everyone the truth about the matter.[,!]
It’s clear that there will be fewer such things in the future, what do you think of Li Heng?”
Ning Yi listened quietly and started laughing: "It sounds like killing them all tonight would be a good idea."
"Is Li Heng going to do this?"
In the darkness of night and firelight, Zhou Tong's words were not cordial. In fact, most of the two exchanges between the two parties had this attitude. At this time, hearing Zhou Tong's half-questioning, half-warning words, Ning Yi smiled and looked at him.
He spread his hands beside him.
"Senior Zhou and Brother Fulu, you two have come a long way and are probably hungry too. We have prepared noodles here. Let's eat a bowl first... Hey you guys..." He smiled at the people around him and said, "Okay, again.
It's not a war. Don't be so nervous. Go and do your thing, I want a bowl of noodles."
Zhou Tong has an upright personality. Obviously he doesn't like Ning Yi's behavior of changing the topic, but now he has no choice but to follow them. Yan Huan also follows them to the side of the camp. The pots of noodles there are all for people in the camp.
He was preparing for a late-night snack, but when someone came over with a meal, he could no longer suppress the doubts in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said, "Master, what you just said...is it true?"
Zhou Tong looked at him seriously and glanced at him: "The grain shortage that started last year was mostly caused by large households in various places collecting grain. Without Mr. Ning's cooperation with the Right Prime Minister's Office to organize grain merchants, the land in the north and south would have been starved to death, and the people would be in dire straits!"
If he hadn't blocked the way for those big families to make money, why would those people spread rumors and incite you to do things?"
"But..." Yan Huan hesitated, "If he is really a good person, why doesn't he directly provide food for disaster relief? Why does he sell the food at such a high price..."
"If there is no benefit, who will transport food into the disaster area! How many people are willing to release food for free!" Zhou Tong looked at him, his voice stern, "You are so indignant, have you ever transported food to the disaster area to rescue people!? Have you ever gone?
Release food in disaster-stricken areas!?”
The old man pointed to the prison van: "Where are those people!?"
"I'm waiting...I don't want...to take advantage of others' danger..." Yan Huan lowered his head, his whole face had turned red, and the blood vessels on his forehead were swollen. At this time, he already knew that Zhou Tong was not lying.
, when he raised his head and looked at Ning Yi, he saw Ning Yi taking a bowl of noodles from the side and handing it to Zhou Tong, and then handed it to Fulu. The death of his son and the scene of the whole family being arrested came to mind again.
, but he didn't expect that he was actually a good man in front of him. He was already a little regretful at this time, but some sadness and anger had also surged up.
"Then...then where is my family..." He spoke to Ning Yi with difficulty, "You let them go! I...I admit defeat..."
Ning Yi looked at him with a bowl of noodles, then handed it over: "You want it too?"
"Where is my family?"
"I'll tell you when you eat a bowl of noodles."
Yan Huan refused to answer: "You let them go...I, I will never pursue this matter...I admit defeat, what else are you going to do-"
When he said this, his voice gradually became louder. At the moment when his voice reached the highest level, a ferocious look flashed in Ning Yi's eyes, and he smashed a bowl of noodles towards Yan Huan's face. Fulu stood closer and gave Yan Huan a fierce blow.
He reached out and grabbed the bottom of the bowl. But he also had noodles in his hand at this time, so he could only free up one hand to catch it. The soup in the bowl splashed on Yan Huan's face, and Yan Huan jumped back from being burned.
He took a step forward, clenched his fists, and was about to rush over. Several crossbows were set up around him, and Zhu Biao also came closer, clenching the spear in his hand.
Ning Yi stared at him and tilted his head indifferently: "Master Yan, what's wrong with you... You weren't like this last night..."
"you……"
"Senior Zhou, you have seen it." Ning Yi spread his hands and said, "Leave a few strands in your life so that we can meet each other easily in the future. Master Zhou, you can also explain and clarify for me. I can be respected by them like a good person. But
So what? Your disciple, when he thought I was a bad person, I killed his son and arrested his whole family and he didn’t even dare to fart. Now he thinks I am a good person and thinks I am scaring him. Suddenly
During this time, he had the courage to speak loudly to me."
Ning Yi smiled and took the bowl of noodles: "Because he feels that a good person will definitely not kill his whole family. Even if I kill his son in front of him, he will still feel that I will not do anything worse."
That's too much. Senior Zhou, please clarify for me now. Yes, there can be fewer people who want to kill me, but they still think that I need their forgiveness. Will they one day go to Beijing to kill me and fail?
Do they expect me to show them justice?"
"Good people can't survive, Senior Zhou." Ning Yi ate noodles, "Good people have concerns, cares, and bottom lines. Real evil people will look down on them, just like your disciple's idea, when he finds out that I am a good person
At that moment, he suddenly... didn't respect me very much. Unfortunately, he made a mistake."
He shook his head: "The people who came today are the old man who called me the most arrogant just now, Senior Zhou. He received 1,500 taels of silver to facilitate this matter. Do you think he really cares about whether I am doing any harm?"
Who should die? Evil people form gangs, and good people are always a mob. They can be incited and die for others just for the sake of a moment of enthusiasm, but they just can't do anything. Your disciples are no longer afraid of me even because I am a good person. Others
I feel like I'm easier to deal with. Look, why should I leave a ray of hope for them? I don't care about their revenge at all. They want my family to be destroyed. Regardless of good or evil people, I want their family to be destroyed."
Zhou Tong's eyes were serious and he said nothing. Yan Huan's face turned red and white, and his tone softened: "This... this matter... I was wrong..."
Ning Yi looked him up and down, then pointed at the noodles hanging on him and falling on the ground: "Your noodles are getting cold, eat them. When you're done, I'll tell you where your family is."
Yan Huan's face instantly turned red again. The other party was showing no mercy at all and wanted to continue insulting him. The faces of Zhou Tong and Fulu next to him were also a little hesitant. After all, they felt in their hearts that they were humiliated.[,!]
There is no need for an individual to reach this level. People in the world are just stretching their heads and shrinking their heads. But after a while, they did not speak. Yan Huan stared at Ning Yi, reached out and grabbed the noodles on his clothes and put them in his mouth.
Then he squatted down and grabbed the noodles on the ground and stuffed them into his mouth.
No matter what happened before or not, with this scene, the two of them are almost mortal enemies.
But Ning Yi didn't seem to care about it. He was eating noodles and watching this scene with interest. Soon after, he ate a bowl of noodles, handed the bowl and chopsticks to the person behind him, looked at Yan Huan with a smile, and spoke
Said: "Your family members are all dead."
Yan Huan was squatting on the ground, putting the noodles and sand into his mouth, chewing heavily while staring at Ning Yi, as if he wanted Ning Yi to see his determination, but after hearing these words, his whole body
Just froze there.
"All of them died a few days ago." Ning Yi tilted his head and repeated with a smile, "On the night when I killed your son and forced you to cooperate, I killed all of your family. You know I
Why don't you leave a line for you, because I didn't intend to give you a way to survive. Isn't this obvious? You raised a stupid son, and I killed him in front of you. You will definitely not be able to swallow this breath. Of course I
If I want to kill all your family...if we cooperate, I will let you go. Hey...you still think I am a good person now?"
"Oh..." Ning Yi smiled with cold eyes, and the Yan Huan in front of him turned into a beast in the blink of an eye. He made a meaningless sound in his mouth, and then with a "Ah——" sound, he moved towards
Ning Yi rushed over. Fulu, who was next to him, suddenly grabbed his shoulders and shouted: "Wait a minute! Calm down!"
But at this moment, Yan Huan had no chance of calming down. He struggled hard and almost started fighting with Fulu. Ning Yi stood a few steps away and looked at all this with a smile, saying sarcastically: "Wow.
Oh... He can't calm down anymore, give up the treatment... Look, his eyes are red... Why don't you wait a minute, there are still noodles in his mouth... He won't choke to death on the noodles..."
Zhou Tong watched all this. After a while, he seemed to notice something, and he also started to eat noodles with his head down. After a while, some figures came from a distance outside the camp, and a child walking in the front shouted:
"Daddy." Yan Huancai suddenly froze there again. Someone in the crowd cried and called "Ms. Xianggong."
"Just-kidding!" Ning Yi walked towards Yan Huan and said, "I'm just kidding." After saying this, he suddenly kicked Yan Huan in the stomach and kicked him away. Yan Huan rolled on the ground.
After a few laps, it stopped. In the light of the fire, the scholar's figure walked over indifferently.
Ning Yi leaned down, grabbed the hair on the back of his head, and looked at him with cold eyes: "I think you must understand, right?"
Yan Huan's eyes flickered, and he didn't dare to look at him again. Ning Yi shook his head: "It will be true next time." After saying this, the hand that grabbed his hair suddenly waved, letting Yan Huan's body move
He rolled to the ground for more than a meter, and his head hit the ground again, causing blood to bleed.
When he turned his head, only Ning Yi walked straight towards the backs of Zhou Tong and others. The night wind blew and his clothes rustled. This forty-year-old martial arts tycoon suddenly no longer had the courage to seek revenge.
He climbed up with difficulty and watched his family approaching him...
The contact with Zhou Tong did not take much time. The two people who met in the field of self did not have much in common due to their different acting styles. Even if some actions and styles can be understood, it does not mean that they can
Accept. Because of this, after the master and servant Zhou Tong were settled nearby, Ning Yi couldn't help but patted his head with regret: "Ah, it's still difficult to make this old man like me..."
Zhou Tong's purpose of coming here was indeed for goodwill, which Ning Yi could understand after a few words of conversation, but even so, there was not much compromise or wavering between the two. Zhou Tong still did not agree with his attitude.
He had the perfect style to do things, but he chose not to persuade me anymore, which was already a big concession.
Of course, after bidding farewell to Ning Yi and keeping out of sight, that night, Zhou Tong, who was staying overnight in a nearby courtyard, summoned Tian Donghan and asked about his recent situation, and then continued to do things in his own way.
"... How to deal with this matter, your boss has his own approach. Doing things to the extreme will of course deter some young people, but if you can convince a group of people, it will be useful after all. After leaving here, I will go
Call on some reputable greenwood people and ask them to try their best to clarify the disaster relief matter. There is no need to talk to your boss about this matter. I just want to help him and save the lives of some reckless people. With your boss’s
In terms of ability and character, people who find him will probably not be able to get away with it easily. It would be better if this problem could be reduced..."
"As for the people behind the scenes that your boss said, I will try my best to check it out. If it is true, I will naturally find them and not spare these people. Your boss probably thinks that I am pedantic and stale, and I also think that he is arrogant."
, but he is a real person who does practical things, and although I am old, I will not be a mediocre person doing peacemaking all day long..."
"In addition, I see that the formations you used have some traces of what I thought in my early years. Over the years, the small formations in the army that I want to use have not made much progress, but if they are used to defend the home and courtyard, they can be compared with the three or five masters.
We are arguing, but there are some ideas that can be used. I will write them down tonight. He is a person who can do practical things for the people. These things can be regarded as my humble efforts..."
