Chapter 1153 Chapter 1094 The Judgment of Life and Death (7)

Chapter 1153 Chapter [-]: Judgment of Life and Death ([-])

The rain fell on Jiangning City in the dark. At midnight, there were running figures in the rain.

In the early morning at the southern end of the city, riots broke out in two hospitals that had closed their doors.

At this time, all kinds of stores that can establish a foothold in Jiangning City, or take shelter from a certain force of the Fair Party, buy the flag to protect themselves, or they have a good art industry and background, which is enough to protect themselves.Especially at this time when the Lulin Hookers from all directions are gathering, there are many cases of fighting, and the city's middle and doctor are also treated favorably.

The young man with a knife forcibly knocked open two medical centers to ask for medicines, with a strong and fierce attitude. Among them, he even asked for valuable medicinal materials that were priceless. Naturally, he was stopped at the first time. The apprentices in the medical halls or The nursing home rushed out with swords, guns and sticks, and was knocked over. The doctor in charge knew that he had encountered a strong man, and after saying a few beautiful words, greeted the other party in.

Such riots are not surprising in Jiangnan at this time, and the riots subsided after a brief appearance.A reckless man with low martial arts can't provoke a doctor in a medical center, and a doctor in a knight-errant medical center with high martial arts can't offend. As long as the other party has some sense, it is better to end it than to report to the official to find someone and find "fairness". A kindness.

After calling two medical clinics one after another, I gathered some barely usable life-sustaining medicines. The waves in the dark night seemed to be submerged by the splendid autumn rain, and the night became quiet again in this atmosphere.

Under the damp bridge in front of the Wuhu Inn, a young monk wearing a ridiculous wig raised a fire. After the elder brother who went out to grab the medicine with a knife came back, they set up a clay pot and boiled the medicine.The lame man named Xue Jin kowtowed a lot, trying to help the two little knights who appeared late at night to treat his dying wife.

Jiangning City outside the bridge hole is submerged in blackness. People seem to be isolated by this darkness, just like the ripples caused by teenagers robbing the medicine shop can hardly spread. , how anxious people are, and looking out from the bridge hole, they can't see anything clear. The people who were beaten during the day and the surrounding households are also licking themselves under their respective bridge holes. 's wound.

Of course there are more things brewing in the dark.

Located in Zhonganfang, southeast of the city, in a corner of the "Juxianju", the members of the "Five Lakes Inn" who were arrested during the day are being tortured. , the overnight interrogators made them confess their crimes as members of the "book club" over and over again.

Shi Weiyang didn't fall asleep, and even accompanied by Wu Chennan, came to the torture room to see the bloody scene with his own eyes.The first reaction of the two was a little nauseated, but a certain kind of excitement prevented them from falling asleep.

After returning from the Wuhu Inn, his father Shi Baofeng did not comment much on this action, but the praise in his expression already made Shi Weiyang know that he had done the right thing and washed away the shame he had suffered a month ago.Then, under the vague revelation of the shopkeeper Jin Yongsheng, Shi Weiyang understood even more that his actions touched the core of something at a larger level.

Most importantly, with the help of Wu Chennan, he has grasped the core of the big man's actions.

Does the Five Lakes Inn have anything to do with the "book club"? Is it important?

Is it important that the captured person is innocent?

I have always treated Yan Yunzhi with courtesy, but, is it important?

I have always wanted to treat people and things in the way of a gentleman, is it important?

When he really reached the level of his own parents, including Jin Yongsheng, the most important thing to measure is that his face is not enough, and whether his lizi can be good.Regarding Yan Yunzhi's matter, he didn't do a good job. In the conflict at the Five Lakes Inn, he thought he was catching a thief in the past, and he didn't have any malice towards the other party, so the other party would definitely open the door for convenience - it was too naive.

Baofeng made a fortune following the Fair Party. As Shi Baofeng's second son, Shi Weiyang was young and handsome. He was always praised for his talent and intelligence, and was regarded by most people as Shi Baofeng's favorite son. .When he came to Jiangning this time, he followed Jin Yongsheng and other shopkeepers at Juxianju to receive all parties. Speaking of which, he dealt with it smartly. In fact, deep down in his heart, he always felt a little uneasy.

Worried that he would be regarded as a dude by those old rivers and lakes, worried that his ability was not enough, that the other party looked happy on the surface, and looked down on him in his heart, especially after some mistakes were made, he was even more anxious in his heart.However, when Wu Chennan explained these things to him, he finally grasped the core of these big men's behavior.

There is really a sense of sudden enlightenment that "he heard the Tao in the morning, and died in the evening".

The face of the Wuhu Inn was easily retrieved, and the knife from the "reading club" was handed over to his father. Shi Weiyang was overwhelmed. Seize the contradiction and make a plan. In the early hours of the morning, the prototype of a plan was roughly finalized. The two played it once. It felt quite feasible. Shi Weiyang almost immediately asked people to prepare, but Wu Chen stopped with tea. took him.

"Second Young Master." Wu Chennan said, "Whenever there is a major event, you need to be calm. You only got the Shigong's approval last night. It was not yet dawn, so let's roar and scream, and fall into the eyes of others, afraid of fear. You will feel that you are eager to express yourself. Besides, you and I are still talking about things on paper after all, and we have to do things against the Yan family. We might as well discuss this with Mr. Jin and the others, first to give the seniors face, and secondly, also Let them know, Second Young Master, your thoughts today..."

Hearing Wu Chennan finish saying this, Shi Weiyang reacted and held the other party's hand: "It's still Chennan who reminded me, it's really me being irritable, alas, if Chennan doesn't have these things..."

The two held hands in the room, and they encouraged each other again. When it was almost dawn, they fell asleep on the same bed.

……

The movement under the bridge had stopped until the dawn of time.

"...I have tried my best."

This is what the boy who goes by the pseudonym Long Aotian said. After he finished speaking, he walked out of the rain curtain with the little monk, then turned back and threw a word.

"Maybe survive..."

In his words, there was hesitation that he felt was unnecessary.

The woman under the bridge did not wake up. Her head was bandaged, and her body was limply paralyzed. The breath in her nose was like a gossamer. Xue Jin touched her. The long-term residence under the bridge made her smell rancid. , and as bony as ever.Since the young man said that she might still be alive, Xue Jin was not able to hold her. He kowtowed to the outside of the bridge, not knowing why the two little benefactors came to show kindness, and couldn't even think about it.

He was sitting in the rain, wanting to take care of his wife, but most of the time it was just sluggish and blank for a long time. As dawn approached, he knelt there and slept for a while in the clear rain, and he didn't know when , woke up again stunned.Yueniang was lying there, sticking her hand between her nose as if she was dead, but after a long time, she could still feel the slightest breath.

To earn money, to beg for food...

he thought to himself.However, the rain is still falling, and there is nothing to beg for food in the daytime, but there is a competition in the city, and there may be some remaining stagnant water in more lively places, but I don't know if this leg will be able to walk.

He struggled to get up, and the tossing from yesterday to this morning almost exhausted his strength, making him climb for a while before he stood up staggeringly. Obstructed, he tried to get over it, flipped over, fell from the top, and got up again tremblingly.

A figure crossed the rain screen and came towards this side. A figure picked him up and dragged him back into the bridge hole. This was the little benefactor yesterday. He was talking about something.Perhaps because of the rain in his ears, Xue Jin couldn't hear anything clearly. He knelt on the ground and began to kowtow. After a while, another little benefactor came over and put a bowl of gruel in front of him.

Xue Jin quivered his lips and started drinking porridge.

He saw the two little benefactors start a flame again and boil the medicine.His wife, Yueniang, couldn't take the concoction anymore. After pinching her mouth, the juice dipped a little bit on her tongue.

……

Gathering.

In the hall in the early morning, a few simple congee and rice dishes were prepared. Shi Baofeng sat in the first seat, having breakfast with a few big shopkeepers such as Shan Lifu who came over and chatting about trivial matters.

Jin Yongsheng came in from outside, took a dossier in a cloth bag, and gave it to Shi Baofeng's personal attendant.

"Elder Jin worked hard, he was working on errands early in the morning... Could it be that he didn't sleep all night?" Shan Lifu greeted with a smile.

"Greetings to the owner, the shopkeepers are good, all the shopkeepers..." Jin Yongsheng smiled and waved his hands: "When you're old, you can't stay up late every day. It's gotta be sooner... well, the gang of people captured by the Second Young Master is over."

As he spoke, he sat down on the seat beside Shi Baofeng, and the servant served him hot minced meat porridge, while Shi Baofeng pushed the pickle plate in front of him: "Come on, Mr. Jin , today's pickles are good."

"Then I'm welcome." Jin Yongsheng chuckled and took his chopsticks.

"What was the result of the trial?" Shi Baofeng said casually.

"It's all from the book club. The second young master said there was something strange there last time, and he was right. The confessions in it were all signed and detained."

"I heard that the inn are all from Nongxian." Shan Lifu said, "Will reading be..."

"Under the name of Southwest, everyone wants to take advantage of it. Don't guess which one does not have a book club." Shi Baofeng said.

"However, the confession said that they followed the order of King Fairness and established a book club." Jin Yongsheng took a sip of porridge and said casually.

The people in the hall were quiet for a while, and Shi Baofeng smiled: "It's nonsense again."

Everyone also laughed: "Yes, yes, Mr. Jin, I think the trial will continue."

Jin Yongsheng nodded: "I really let them continue the trial."

"However, the Second Young Master smashed the Wuhu Inn yesterday. Today, Fu Pingbo and King Fairness may not be able to swallow their anger."

"Someone said last night, I'm afraid Nongxian is going to attack..."

"Then these confessions can be used..."

The crowd discussed.

Shi Baofeng put down the spoon in his hand and wiped his mouth.

"I checked the Wuhu Inn yesterday because the second child found a problem there last time. Yesterday's shot was reckless, but it didn't seem to be a trouble. Recently, it seems that the Shang and the Fair King had a lot of quarrels last week. , but their argument was put on the table, it was a dispute between gentlemen, and the restless 'reading club' in private really made everyone panic. This rumor is very powerful, saying that this reading club was done by Ning Liheng, What big leader did it, say it was Xu Zhaonan, He Wen, Zhou Shang, or me, there are all kinds of messes, and this kind of secret careerist is everyone's real enemy."

He paused: "Alright, let's take advantage of this incident and spread the book club on the table, and everyone will talk about it one by one. Some people say that the book club instructed by Mr. He, let Mr. He say no. , and some people said that we were instigating, and we just said no. Now when we talk about union, everyone is open and innocent... Well, it's a good thing..."

When Shi Baofeng said this, several shopkeepers also laughed.

"That's right, the 'reading club' was always doing things in the dark before, hiding and tucking it away, but it was going to make a big deal..."

"On the table, these rumors spread by the reading club are useless..."

"The owner really has foresight..."

"Second Young Master is also not bad. I noticed the problem at the end of last month, and I just investigated it secretly for so long, and I just finished it all in one sweep. Hold your breath..."

A group of people agreed, and when it was about Shi Weiyang, Shi Baofeng looked aside: "Where's the second child, why didn't you come out to eat?"

Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and it took a while before someone came over and said, "Second Young Master discussed matters with others last night until late at night, and it seems that he didn't fall asleep for a long time."

Everyone was silent for a moment, and someone said, "Second Young Master is diligent..."

Shi Baofeng waved his hand: "Ignore him... I won't have a meeting today, but in the afternoon I will meet with He, Gao, Xu, and Zhou, and he will bring up Nong Xian's matter, and I am just in time to throw it out. Just ask him..."

He thought for a while, and then said: "It is about the future of the Fair Party... He will make a statement."

Everyone immediately nodded in approval.

……

At noon, Shi Weiyang and Wu Chennan didn't wake up. At this time, Shi Baofeng had left Juxianju to deal with other matters, including various arrangements for a small meeting with He Wen and other parties in the afternoon, which made him lose his life. It's time to say goodbye to my father.

Recalling that last night's decision for the Yan family, Yan Yunzhi and others was to be set up, Shi Weiyang also temporarily pushed aside the idea of ​​greeting him. After washing up for a while, he and Wu Chennan invited the shopkeeper Jin Yongsheng to have lunch together. After hearing the plans of the two, Jin Yongsheng looked at the two young people repeatedly for a while, and admired their boldness and enterprising.

"According to this line of thinking, things can be done." He thought for a while, "However, there are still many things to consider in terms of specific details... For example, Er Shao and Wu Juvenile considered Yan Yunzhi's temperament. , but have you considered that Yan Tie and this person are also old Jianghu..."

"I see, there are a few things to consider about this matter..."

The old shopkeeper's plans for the two young people were revised one by one.

When the matter was roughly finished, Shi Weiyang suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked about what happened last night and his father's attitude this morning.Jin Yongsheng talked more about the issue of the book club. After the reason was given to Shi Baofeng, this afternoon, Shi Baofeng would take the opportunity to attack He Wen and others, and then he might call the "book club" conspiracy. The faction was brought to the fore and wiped out completely.

This is a major event related to the future of the entire Fairness Party. It has already been handed over to Shi Baofeng at this moment. At that time, Weiyang will no longer have to worry about it. After lunch, he and Wu Chennan began to arrange the layout for Yan Yunzhi.

I don't know when the rain stopped, and many trajectories of operations are extending in the city along with the operations of one big man. These trajectories will touch the lives of countless people sooner or later.At the same time, the ruins of the Wuhu Inn, which was destroyed by the fire, stood quietly by the roadside at the bridge. Near the Wuhu Inn, a resident who was affected yesterday also has his own tiny Trajectories, some of them bandaged their injuries and started a new day of life-defying, and some of them started to get worse because of lack of medical care and medicine.

The cripple under the bridge is guarding his wife, who is only a little bit of life, he has nothing to really do, and he can't sleep until he is knocked out by two little benefactors, and then he rests in silence for a while time.

Two teenagers in tattered clothes were nearby asking about what happened yesterday. Since the other party was doing things for face and fame, they also inquired about Shi Weiyang's name and information about the "book club" from the people around them. , and the ins and outs of it all...

……

"Kill the shit baby first."

After entering Jiangning City, Long Aotian, the "Master of the Martial Arts Alliance" who made plans and changed it several times, changed his plans again. The "shit baby" in his mouth didn't know whether he was referring to Shi Baofeng or Shi Weiyang, but it seemed that It doesn't matter anymore.

There was a deep anger on his face.

The rain had stopped, and at this moment, they were sitting by the wet and broken embankment, under the bridge not far away, the lame man seemed to move slightly.

……

"If you want to achieve great things, you need to be vigorous and resolute."

In the center of the city, Shi Weiyang and Wu Chennan made tea in the teahouse. They were chatting while watching the movement in the shop on the other side of the street.

It was already close to the venue where the competition was held. The streets were crowded with people, and the restaurants and tea shops on both sides were quite lively.Shi Weiyang no longer cares about the hustle and bustle of the competition. Among the shops he and Wu Chennan are observing, a small "Hero's Meeting" is going on. Jian" Yan Tiehe, participating in it, is making friends with heroes from all walks of life.

Near the window, a tall and thin man with a long sword and a scar on his face looked back, and he could see Wei Yang's gesture to him across the street.What he cared about more was the secret sign of Jin Yongsheng hung on the window of a restaurant a little farther to the side—he was the secret son arranged by Baofeng earlier, he was a double agent, and he lived a good life. After all, Jin Yongsheng's order means his good days are coming to an end.

With a sigh, he took the sword, stood up, and walked forward.

"Second Master Yan, all the heroes are polite in person." He greeted loudly, "...The gathering of heroes today can be regarded as a grand event. Seeing that all of you are having such a good chat, Xiao Mou didn't want to spoil the fun, but he didn't want to disappoint. Block Base, it’s really unpleasant... Erye Yan, I heard that your Yan Family Fort entered the city this time, and there are some things that you really did, not very authentic..."

He held the sword forward, and every time he took a step forward, the inner strength in his words increased by one point.

Across the street, Shi Weiyang and Wu Chennan also heard the voices and noises coming from there.

"……here we go."

Wu Chennan laughed.

……

North of the city.

When Shi Baofeng walked into the spacious hall with a few of his men, Xu Zhaonan and Zhou Shang had already arrived. The two sat on the adjacent chairs, not knowing what they were talking about. When they saw Shi Baofeng, they stopped. Talk, get up to meet.

Xu Zhaonan was quite tall with a smile on his face. Zhou Shang was a dwarf with no good looks on his face.The three of them sat down, only to hear Xu Zhaonan laughing: "I heard that Boss Shi smashed Nong Xian Zhao Jingci's place yesterday, so he didn't give Mr. He face? It really is... good."

"Mr. Xu, don't talk nonsense." Shi Baofeng smiled, "The dog has no status and acts recklessly, and he has caused such a disaster. Shi is a small business man who dares to stroke the tiger's whiskers of the King of Fairness. He pleaded guilty to Mr. He..."

He paused slightly: "But when it comes to this matter, it is also wrong or wrong. The few people caught are now determined to be careerists from the 'reading club'. They are extremely vicious and hateful. They recruited their own. After the origin, I still have delusional thoughts and talk about it, saying that Mr. He is behind the 'reading club', and they are Mr. He's imperial army... This is an ugly remark that will disturb the foundation of my fair party. In a while, how to deal with this. How many people have to be decided by Mr. He."

Zhou Shang next to him sneered: "Boss Shi is not worried, are they telling the truth?"

"Mr. He is already the king of fairness, why bother making his own rebellion." Shi Baofeng waved his hand and tapped on the coffee table, "I'm sure! Mr. He will give us a clear explanation later. !"

He tapped his fingers, and he paused at every word, but the room was a little quieter amid his words.Xu Zhaonan and Zhou Shang showed contemplative eyes, Shi Baofeng took a sip of tea and smiled again: "It's Mr. Zhou, I'm afraid I'm not expecting Mr. He to do this kind of thing, you act the most extreme, so is Mr. Ruo He. With a temperamental temperament, you are always going to smash the pot, maybe you can talk more with Mr. He in private."

Zhou Shang frowned.

Next to Xu Zhaonan waved his hand: "Okay, okay, let's not speculate blindly. Look, it's said to meet and talk, the three of us will come first, General Gao and Mr. He are late, you say Are the two of them just like the three of us, where are they chatting and chatting?"

Zhou Shang glanced at him: "Why did you put General Gao in front of Mr. He?"

Xu Zhaonan was stunned.

Shi Baofeng smiled: "Xu Gong just loves to talk nonsense. According to what you said, I was the third one to come here. Didn't you and Zhou Ye also make up your mind in private?"

"My brother and sister Zhou, as well as boss Shi, have always been close to each other."

"Ha ha ha ha."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The two laughed for a while, and Zhou Shang, who was on the side, looked at them and said, "If Mr. He comes over later and really accepts the 'reading club', what will you do?"

"..."

"..."

"Ha ha ha ha."

"Hahahahahaha..."

"Master Zhou really knows how to joke..."

"That's right..."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"That would be... a fight!"

"Four! Hit one!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……"

In the light blue sky, Shi Baofeng and Xu Zhaonan laughed, leaning back and forth. After a while, Zhou Shang also looked at them and laughed...

……

"Big brother."

On the riverbank, two teenagers who had been busy all night stood there. The little monk after disguise looked at the sky in the distance and said, "I have one thing that I don't understand."

"Ok?"

"I followed Master to the south this time, and I have seen a lot of tragic incidents. There are tragic incidents in the north, in the south, in the city, and outside the city... Over the years, when something happened suddenly, people broke off their hands and feet, and even died of starvation. I have also met a lot of people from here, and the lame uncle under the bridge is very miserable, but eldest brother, look at how many people there are in every household in this city, isn’t that like this?”

They could see the miserable figure under the river bank, and in front of the field of vision, there were still layers of black tiles and grey walls in the dilapidated city. Figures walked among them, surviving in confusion.the little monk asked.

"Brother, why does this lame uncle make you so angry?"

Ning Ji stood on the river bank and was silent for a moment.

After a while, he whispered: "He went to my family and had some friendship."

The little monk thought for a while and understood a little. He put his hands together and said, "Amitabha."

Under the river bank, the cripple woke up stuttering. He was at a loss for a while, and then he went to see the woman's condition.

"Big brother, his wife... can she survive?"

……

After the rain stopped, the thick clouds were still glowing with a pale blue color. The clouds rolled and were torn apart a few times, and light fell from the gaps in the clouds.No one knew if the clouds were rolling over to cover the breaches, or if the sky light would tear the breaches even wider.

Beneath this light and cloud is the boundless land, above the land there is a gray and black city, in the city are row upon row of houses and vertical and horizontal rivers. Standing expressionless.

He looked at the person under the bridge and whispered:

"Amitabha."

……

Soon after, the fair king He Wen and Gao Tianwang Gao Chang walked into the spacious hall. The five kings of the fair party greeted each other and joked for a while. Then, Shi Baofeng threw the key question to He Wen and joined the other four. , waiting for a simple answer.

In the city, the direction of the wind and the color of the clouds are about to change...
