Chapter 1148 Chapter 1089 The Judgment of Life and Death (2)

Chapter 1148 Chapter [-] Judgment of Life and Death ([-])

"Old He came prepared this time, to see the poor dagger."

The sky was already dark, and a little light appeared from far and near in Jiangning City. In the brightly lit teahouse, several figures seemed to touch their heads in an ordinary way, brewing tea in an ordinary way, and then talking about ordinary topics.

The conference on the first day of September has just passed, so talking about these current affairs is naturally not too special. However, considering the real identities of the few people in the teahouse at the moment, every topic in their mouths actually has not simple meanings.

Meng Zhutao "Measure the Sky", Gao Huiyun "Wu Ba", Chen Juefang "Jackdaw", and Xu Longbiao "Tuohe Sanren" who is not low in martial arts and status, the four people present were basically It is already equivalent to half of the high-level executives under the "runner king" in Jiangning City this time.After dinner, the four of them simply rested in this teahouse.

The first person to speak in a casual tone was the tall "measurement ruler" Meng Zhutao still wrapped in bandages on his shoulders. In his voice, he poured tea for a few people: "What do you think?"

"I look at the picture and see it, but I don't see it." Chen Juefang picked up the teacup, shook his head and smiled, "The things that Lao He threw out can't be regarded as aimless, what is wrong with the fair party, everyone? Don't you know, the five great kings have made many orders. From ancient times to the present, it will not last for a long time. I think it is almost time to solve the problem. You can see that he threw a question today and did not answer, this picture does not count. Poor, the knife hasn't come out yet."

"Old He must have already answered in his heart." Gao Huiyun, who is also burly and burly like Meng Zhutao, smiled, "It's just to see what the parties mean, and then choose the time to throw it out... Mr. Xu thinks. ?"

"Tuohe Sanren" Xu Longbiao, who was in his early fifties, with half-white hair and a long beard under his jaw, laughed when he saw that everyone had spoken: "In the end, the most important one of the questions raised by King Fairness is Who has the final say, if you want to be more meticulous, it is nothing more than how to play next... These things are not expected by everyone. Since he has raised the problem, this time is to solve the problem, Jiang Ning's hero The conference will be open for a month, and everyone will discuss it privately for a month, discuss the next gameplay, and beat those who disagree, everyone can understand it, it's simple."

"Old Xu thorough, in one sentence." After Xu Longbiao finished speaking, the rest of the people picked up the cups and touched them with a smile.

"But..." After a while, Chen Juefang poked his ear with his pinky finger: "...Since the problem is thrown from Lao He, in the general direction, that is to say, Lao He wants to take back the power... This matter It's up to him, right?"

"He occupies the title of King Fairness, and it is not surprising to have such a style."

"It's not surprising that the name is famous, but the five parties of the fair party have originally fought each other, and no one has eaten more of his fair king's meal. He has already taken the advantage in name, and at the practical level, he has to take it. I think Not everyone would like it.”

"Didn't you see it at the meeting? To be honest, just like what Old Chen said just now, when our Fair Party has developed to this day, we should think about who has the final say and how to have the final say. It's not unreasonable. But he shouldn't throw these questions, at least after the five parties have discussed them, throw them out together... Now that he wants to make this show, the rest of the parties will not just perfunctory and muddy the water. Okay. To put it bluntly, he has not broken his wrist, and he will be crushed on the head, who can be reconciled?"

Everyone drank tea and chatted for a few words slowly, Xu Longbiao frowned: "King Fairy's behavior this time is indeed a bit strange, such a big thing, the five kings should have sat and talked clearly in private. Then I said at the conference, why this time... it was handled so poorly. In the past, it was said that the King of Fairness was a big deal, but when we first gathered together, it was full of praise..."

"The five people met a few days ago, but they didn't seem to have a pleasant conversation..."

"A year ago was a year ago. At that time, everyone was living in embarrassment. Of course, Corporal Li Xian. Now the fair party is more lavish, and he, Mr. He, is better than Mr. Ning in the southwest, and he is a scholar. It was like this..."

Chen Juefang and Gao Huiyun said a few words with a smile, while Meng Zhutao, who was playing with the tea, also smiled:

"How is it possible to negotiate, everyone, who has the final say, is a big problem, under this, there is still a problem of how to do it, is it small? Dividing land and doing things are different. King Gao likes to fight. For the landlords and gentry below, he fights the least. As long as these people are willing to help and join in, there will be less things that really destroy the family. The rules are strict, and some people say that compared with the other houses, it is not fun to beat the landlord there..."

He paused: "From then on, to King Pingping, to me, to Zhou Shang, each has his own set of methods... Let alone Zhou Yanluo, his method is to kill the rich. After killing it, go back and kill it again, who can stand it, crazy... But this crazy person can't listen to other people's advice. People are very reasonable. Said that Zhou Shang had been reading the various pamphlets that came from the southwest. He was much more powerful than the Ning Rentu in the southwest. He usually said that Ning Yi was hypocritical and would not be successful. It's okay, he is the only one who can achieve great things in the world today..."

When Meng Zhutao said this, she shook her head and smiled: "Look, the question of who has the final say may not be unsolvable. In the end, it's just that we will send people from each party to discuss what to do, but the question of how to do it, how to solve it. , Zhou Shang won't agree. Take a step back and say, in the future, will we do what He Wen does or do we do. Of course we can't change a lunatic like Zhou Shang, but if we do it according to He Wen's method, you will be willing?"

Gao Huiyun laughed and shook his head: "I have to chat."

"How to talk is a big problem." Xu Longbiao took a sip of tea, "Open the door and speak up, everyone should be invited."

The other three looked at each other, but Gao Huiyun didn't care, and smiled: "Let's not talk about the other people who are irrelevant, Gao Chang and Lin Jiaojiu, but they invited me to dinner first, and I have already reported it. Xu Gong said, eat a meal. It doesn't matter if you eat, anyway, he also invited a lot of people."

"He Wen's rules are strict, Lin Jiao is the nine commander of the army, and it's informal. I heard that he usually complains about the rules of King Fairness... Lao Gao is also commander of the army. Do you think this matter has a chance?" Meng Zhutao asked road.

"It's hard to say." Gao Huiyun shook his head and smiled, "It's still early, let's take a look first. What about you, Lao Meng?"

Meng Zhutao stretched out her hands and counted them one by one, "He Wen, Gao Chang, Fu Pingbo, Shi Baofeng, Jin Yongsheng, Chen Yanda... I'm more curious why Zhou Shang wants to talk to me. , Wei Yunwen also sent an invitation card here..."

"It's still Lao Meng who is popular." Everyone laughed, "A man of the moment."

"It's still early. This time the meeting is open in public, and the private connection is the big one. No one can escape before Lao He Tu's poor dagger." Meng Zhutao smiled lightly: "It's the two of you who are good at it. Just don't hold back."

"I am loyal to Duke Xu." Chen Juefang said.

Xu Longbiao smiled: "Xu Gong is my family."

"Let's see." Gao Huiyun said.

"Just kidding." Meng Zhutao said, "Just kidding."

After that, everyone drank a few more cups of tea.

Gao Huiyun shifted the topic away.

"Lao Meng, how are you handling the affairs of your junior brother and junior sister?"

"Why are you asking this?" Meng Zhutao raised her eyebrows.

"The case of Jinlou hasn't been closed yet, so there are people watching you in private... Or you are covering up the murderer. After all, Gu Anhe is dead, and the people involved in the open face are only your junior brother and junior sister. People, plus you are in charge of the Resentment Club, so there are some rumors recently, it sounds like they are coming for you..."

"Who is it? Or the monkey?" Meng Zhutao smiled half-smiling.

"It's not." Gao Huiyun waved his hand, "Although the Monkey King is a rising star and has some ambitions, he has a sense of proportion. It was his fault that he made a fuss about your affairs that day, but after Duke Xu made up for his loss , it won't be endless... Didn't I make a special trip to apologize to you later?"

On the side, Chen Juefang said: "This time, it's because you have done too much on your side, Lao Meng. I just said it plainly, the next Jiangning Conference is nothing more than choosing a method to decide who has the final say. We are all involved in each of the five parties. It is impossible for He Wen to cover the sky with one hand. Most of it is... set up a new thing on the top, discuss it, and then the person who can enter this circle will be the real power. People. Lao Meng, you are a high-ranking person, and now leave a story, it is not surprising that some people hit you twice when they have nothing to do."

Xu Longbiao smiled: "In the end, it's still the Monkey King's fault. If it wasn't for him making a mess, I'm afraid no one would dare to follow him."

On the night of the Jinlou accident, Li Yanfeng, who had lost face, used an excuse to get angry at Meng Zhutao, and then Xu Zhaonan came forward to appease and calm the situation, but the reason he used when he was angry has now become a new problem.Meng Zhutao was silent for a moment, put his hand on his mouth and smiled slightly: "Li Yanfeng and Tan Tiandao have a good relationship, I will give Tan Zheng a face."

"You are trying to trouble him, and I have no problem." Chen Juefang, who had a good relationship with him, smiled, "But I'm not talking about you, Brother Meng, some people say that brothers are like siblings, Wife is like clothes, this is not true, but if you really want to help others, at least you have to be your own woman. Look at your junior brothers and sisters who are not good enough, and the junior sisters who have a relationship, and they are messing with the junior brother, the junior brother thinks. If they want to kill you, they still beat you with the whip on your shoulder, you are...why are you here?"

Everyone nodded slightly, Meng Zhutao's eyes swept over, and then he smiled but not smiled:

"...Brother, I'm fine with this."

There was a moment of silence ahead.

"..."

"……Row."

"...transparent, can play."

"...Brother Meng really...the capable person is omnipotent."

Several people laughed and expressed their admiration for Meng Zhutao.After drinking a few more cups of tea, everyone was about to leave, and Chen Juefang finally said a few words to Meng Zhutao.

"If you gossip about you outside, no matter who made it, catch a group first and kill a group before you talk about it. It's just killing chickens and setting an example. Be quick. Power can't be delayed. If you don't want to do it, I'll do it for you. also."

"Understood." Meng Zhutao nodded, "I know what to do, come on by myself."

"Okay." Chen Juefang patted his arm.

This simple tea party was originally proposed by Meng Zhutao. At this time, Chen Juefang, Gao Huiyun, and Xu Longbiao left each other. Only Meng Zhutao was in the teahouse, watching the backs of the three leaving, and the lights were shaking. , and sat quietly for a while.

The night fell into the depths, and time passed for a while. Meng Zhutao left the teahouse and rode a carriage to a yard in the city that was being guarded by the power of the "Grievance Society".In the room deep in the courtyard, he visited the second junior brother Yu Bin, who was seriously injured and unconscious.An old medical officer was following him.

On the day of the Jinlou incident, Yu Bin took advantage of Meng Zhutao's distraction and sneaked a sneak attack with a double whip, causing Meng Zhutao's shoulder injury, which has yet to heal. He died in this way. Later, although Meng Zhutao arranged for full treatment, the situation was still not optimistic.

"...Not to mention whether his lower body can resume walking." After asking the medical officer for a while, Meng Zhutao sighed, "Let him come back to life, okay?"

Meng Zhutao's tone lowered, and the old hospital felt a little uneasy, hesitating for a while: "Actually, the doctor's parents have already done what we should do, can we wake up... Now we can only see himself... Or depending on luck..."

This answer is not too different from the answers in the previous days. If you continue to ask, at most, there will be some more detailed pathological explanations.Meng Zhutao was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Going out of this room, there were three other people in the courtyard who were standing under the eaves and watching him. That was his junior sister Ling Chu, and the other two junior brothers-the fourth junior brother, who was already Ling Chu's husband.

All three also had unhealed injuries.

"Meng, when will you let us go?"

None of the three looked at Meng Zhutao with kindness, but only the younger sister Ling Chu, who still dared to ask such a question at this moment, may be because she was too indulgent to her when she was a child.Meng Zhutao's eyes glanced over coldly.

"When you are healed, I will send you away."

"We don't need your kindness, you let us go now!"

"The army is in chaos outside, and there is a war to come. With your skills and temperament, how many days can you survive with an injury?"

"That's none of your business!"

"Can you beat me?"

"Your martial arts skills don't mean you're justified—"

"If you can't beat me, kneel down and be obedient!" In the darkness of the night, Meng Zhutao's eyes suddenly turned fierce, "Otherwise, I will call twenty people and play with you all night in front of your man and let you all know. What a dangerous world!"

These words tore open the night, Ling Chu under the eaves widened his eyes, his lips opened, and at a certain moment, his face suddenly turned pale.She is already a married woman, so she naturally understands the specific meaning of the other party's words.

During the time when she was speechless, Meng Zhutao waved her hand, turned and left.

After walking out of the courtyard and through the long eaves corridor, another deputy who reported the matter followed.

As the leader of the Grudge Club under the "Wheel King", he has to deal with a lot of things every day, especially when the September meeting kicks off, he has more work, and sometimes there are even secrets. come to meet.This kind of thing was dealt with for more than half an hour, and when he saw one of his deputy in the study, he also asked about something that was reminded not long ago.

"...What is the number of people who spread the rumors outside, have you checked it out?"

"The main messenger behind the scenes has not yet been found out, but some specific ones have been identified, and some lists have been found out. For the time being... we haven't caught up with them yet." The deputy handed over a list.

Meng Zhutao looked at it and put it aside: "Who is behind the scenes, continue to check, I will find an opportunity in the next two days to have a hand with the Monkey King Li Yanfeng. After I finish playing him, no matter what is on your list Whoever, catch people according to the order, drag them to a bright place, and do it beautifully."

"Yes." The deputy agreed, hesitated, and then whispered, "But according to the results of this inquiry, it really has nothing to do with the Monkey King."

Meng Zhutao nodded, "Yes." She stopped looking at him.

The deputy went down.

The night was as black as ink.

Under the darkness of night, the gleams of Jiangning City lit up and extinguished occasionally.The speckled firelight is far from the appearance of this city in its prosperous period. I don’t know how much depression it has, but in the darkness under this firelight, countless intrigues and secret series are happening quietly. And the possible consequences have become bigger and bigger...

At midnight, the night wind whimpered.

Outside Jiangning City, near a dilapidated old house that was conscripted as a military warehouse, two sneaky figures took advantage of the night to show their bodies. They moved their bodies on the grass under the cover of the night.Although the light at the beginning of the month was dim, we could still see that the two heroes who appeared on the grass were the famous five-foot-Y demon and four-foot-Y demon in Jiangning City.

Only this moment, both of them have hair.

After doing a set of exercises on the grass, after venting some physical strength, our little demon Long Aotian put his hands on his hips and looked at the city of Jiangning in the distance.

"Humph, they all thought I liked to join in the fun, so I ran outside the city to see if you guys could catch me. Wukong, wait two days... no, tomorrow, when our injuries are healed, we'll go into the city for a while. Wave!"

"A, Amitabha, big brother... This hair is so uncomfortable..."

"Ah, Ami Tofu. You have to eat hard and be a good person, do you know this truth... and now there are our portraits in the city, and your bald head is so conspicuous, it's not easy to tolerate, how can we get in? , I tell you, this method of disguising is very advanced, no one will recognize it!"

Long Aotian wore two very fierce eyebrows and said in the night with his arms on his hips.

"Hey, when I regroup and enter the city this time, don't even try to run away, Li Monkey, Shi Baobao - they all have to die! And you! Wukong, I'm not talking about you, who is your boss? Who will feed you? The next time you see a black girl, don't call her sister again! You've lost all my face, you know... Also, to deal with that kind of scum, you don't have to tell her any morals, two people Let's go together, why are you hesitating? She seemed to be singled out that day, but in fact, three ambush us two, two of them are black-hearted, and one is lame. If you really want to kill someone, Fatty Lin can't stop him. Very vicious-"

"In addition..." Long Aotian's words rambled, in fact, in the past few days, these words have been repeated many times.The little monk cried, hugging his head and running away.

"I'm sorry... help..."

"Don't run, I haven't finished yet—"

The two figures have used the highest light-weight kung fu so far in this life, chasing and escaping, making rapid progress...

　Dear friends, happy Dragon Boat Festival! ^_^
