The battle in Blackwater Village was still going on, but at this time it had become a one-sided situation. Several heads of Blackwater Village were also struggling to support themselves. Finally, after the Feng brothers joined forces to kill one and the other escaped with injuries, Blackwater
The people of Shuizhai had been defeated. Among the three remaining masters, the one who fought with He Qiu had quick eyesight and quick hands. He saw that the situation was not going well. Then, after taking He Qiu's blow, he gritted his teeth and ran away.
The remaining two also wanted to escape, but He Dou and his wife did not give them a chance, and together with the Feng brothers who came to support, they killed them here.
Lei Xiaoman, who was seriously injured, spat at Lao Wu, who was still staring at death, and then found a place to rest with the help of He Dou. At the same time, the battle also stopped.
There were many corpses lying in the open space in front of the village. Except for the two heads of the village, no one in Heishui Village ran away. They were either lying down or squatting.
Only a dozen or so little minions were able to survive. They hugged each other and begged for mercy.
Chen Mo watched the dust settle and said to He Qiu and the others who were walking towards him: "Come on, the matter is settled. I have to go find a good house to claim."
After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the Blackwater Village without giving them a chance to speak.
Not long after Chen Mohe and Zhao Di left, He Dou said to He Qiu: "Palace Master He, you can handle the rest. I still have to find some healing medicine for my mother-in-law."
Saying this, without waiting for He Qiutong to agree, he helped Lei Xiaoman stagger into the village.
"Hall Master He, I'll leave the trivial matters to you. Our brothers will go see if there are any hidden things in the village. He is lying down. We have a suggestion. Those who are not dead in Heishui Village
Can people not be killed..."
Before Feng Tianwei finished speaking, He Qiu said: "I know what to do next. You'd better see if there are any fish that have slipped through the net in the village."
After this fight, Chen Mo's importance has skyrocketed. For the four people except He Qiu, they all have the intention that the deputy hall leader is the backbone, and Chen Mo also knows the consequences of this limelight, so
, he quickly made his attitude clear: I can fight, but I don’t care about other things.
He Qiu's performance this time was not very conspicuous. He could be said to have the "worst" performance among these people. He was in sharp contrast to Chen Mo. In the past, he thought that the deputy hall leader was just a threat. If it weren't for the previous
He said that he was not interested in the position of top leader. This time, he would be the boss.
Fortunately, he was also using actions to show that his position was still the same as before, and the four people, perhaps because of Chen Mo's statement or for other reasons, expressed their positions with actions one after another.
He Qiu didn't care whether they were sincere or not. As long as Chen's stance did not change, his position as Hall Master He would be secure. However, his fighting ability was not as good as that of the Deputy Hall Master, so he would just manage the Yuzhong Hall well.
, being an emperor does not depend on your martial arts skills, the same is true for me, a local emperor.
Almost half of the men and horses on both sides were lost. The people of Yuzhongtang surrounded the people of Heishui Village and watched them with eager eyes.
"Hall Master." Go Sheng miraculously survived the battle. He walked to He Qiu full of blood and said, "What should we do with these people?"
He Qiu pondered for a while and said to those people: "From now on, you will be members of the Foolish Hall."
"Hall Master!!" Many of the brothers in Yuzhong Hall quit. Some of their good brothers must have died in the battle just now.
He Qiu waved his hand to interrupt their appeal and said: "Don't forget, deaths and injuries in our profession are commonplace. For those brothers who died, we can only regret that they can't enjoy the blessings with us, but don't be happy either.
It’s too early, the matter is not over yet, the blessings you enjoy have not really come yet, we still need them to face the next opponents together.”
"Who else can compete with you and us?" said an ignorant subordinate.
"You are stupid." Gou Sheng slapped the man on the head: "Who else? You can tell with your butt that it is of course the forces that have united. Although we won, we were also seriously damaged. They didn't
It would be weird to take advantage of the situation."
As he said that, Gou Sheng looked at the people in Heishui Village who had expressions of surviving after a disaster on their faces, and said: "The hall master is just sparing you temporarily. If you really want to become a member of our Yuzhong Hall, it depends on your future performance."
Behave, don't let me find out that you have ulterior motives, otherwise you will have seen the fate of your former boss, our deputy hall master kills without blinking an eye."
Seeing that Gou Sheng was handling the preaching work, He Qiu was very satisfied. He was the old man of Yuzhongtang and the most trustworthy.
He Qiu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Gou Sheng, you did a good job. I'll leave the rest to you. Next time we discuss things, you can come and sit down."
After saying that, He Qiu handed over the affairs here to Gou Sheng and walked into the village.
Gou Sheng looked at He Qiu's leaving back. The excitement on his face could no longer be restrained, but he still suppressed it and did not shout out loud. The other brothers in Yuzhong Hall cast envious looks, and some even regretted it.
Why didn't you step forward and show off just now?
...
Chen Mo walked into the village and looked at the buildings here. The environment here was much better than the two villages he stayed in before. It was almost as big as a village.
Heishui Village is built on the top of a somewhat peculiar hill. Except for the direction they came from which is relatively gentle, the surrounding area is very steep. Normal people will not go there. Even if they want to raid, it is not easy to get there.
, so this village is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Of course, this is only for a small-scale battle. If hundreds of people come, they will not be able to stop it.
Chen Mo took a few glances at the things here and found that they were quite neat and orderly. He felt very comfortable as he didn't have to live in a doghouse-like place before.
Suddenly, a house with an open door caught Chen Mo's attention. He sensed the presence of someone inside, slightly curled his lips and said, "That's the one."
As he spoke, he walked towards the house, clattered up several wooden steps, and walked into the house without paying any attention to who was inside.
The house is very tidy, and it doesn't look like a bandit's den at all. The decorations inside look like a home. On the left side of the house, there is a table, a few benches, teapots and cups. At this time, the teapot is holding a woman's hand.
In his hand, he was just adding tea to the teacup. In front of the teacup, there was a man with a bit of a scholarly temperament, slapping the folding fan in his hand as if to welcome the incoming guests.
Opposite the man, there is a cup of tea, sitting there quietly. There is no heat, so it must be cold.
With a "Qing" sound, Zhao Di was about to take the knife, but Chen Mo held her back. Then she walked to the table over there, sat down where there was tea, and looked at the man without saying a word.
After a moment, the man said: "It seems you know who I am."
"Otherwise, do you think you have a chance to speak?" Chen Mo said with his arms crossed.
"You have such strength at such a young age, you have a bright future, oh, I also want to congratulate you, the Foolish Hall..." The man said to Chen Mo with folding fans and clasped fists, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Chen Mo
.
"I'm not interested in these flattery words, since you sit here so calmly and talk about business."
"You don't seem to be the leader of the Hall of Fools, right?"
"I can make the decision on this matter," Chen Mo said.
"Okay, since that's the case, let me tell you, since Blackwater Village has been destroyed by you, then our previous dealings with Heishui Village..."
"Let's talk to Yuzhongtang now. You have seen the strength of Yuzhongtang." Chen Mo continued. He had felt someone peeking at the competition outside the village, and it must be this person.
"Indeed, we will be a family from now on, but before that, we still have some interests that need to be clearly explained."
"Of course." The one who spoke was not Chen Mo, but He Qiu and He Dou who came over. Presumably, they also knew the general situation here.
He Qiu went directly to a stool next to the table and sat down, but there was no teacup there, and the man with the folding fan had no intention of pouring him tea.
Whether other people knew about his Xiao Jiujiu or not, Chen Mo could see it.
"Childish." Chen Mo felt scornful in his heart.
The man looked at them who seemed to be indifferent, and continued the topic just now, saying: "The interests need to change. In the past, when we cooperated with Heishui Village, they got 20% of the profits, but now..."
"Fifty percent." Chen Mo spoke again. These two words not only stunned the man, but also He Qiu and the others.
"This deputy hall master is like a lion."
This was the common wish of all of them. He Qiu originally believed that this benefit must remain the same as before, but He Dou and others believed that it could not be maintained as it was before. It didn't matter if it was lower. It was also a good income, which was enough to change their previous situation.
Living conditions, when they entered this village before, they could feel that the environment here was much better than what they had before.
"Hahahaha, the deputy hall master is really good at joking." After the man was stunned, he laughed.
"You think I'm joking?"
The man suppressed his smile and said: "The deputy hall master is still too young, and his strength is indeed good, but he is not good at talking about business. It is better for the hall master to communicate more easily."
As he said that, the man looked at He Qiu: "Palace Master He..."
"I said it." The man was interrupted by Chen Mo for the third or fourth time. "I have the final say in this matter."
He Qiu didn't say anything, glanced at Chen Mo, and then slowly closed his eyes, as if the old god was there. Although he didn't know why the surnamed Chen was so determined on this matter, this 50% profit was tempting.
It's really too big. If it is negotiated by him, it will be a huge benefit to Yuzhongtang, why not do it.
