Fang Captou sneered, his eyes full of fatigue from seeing the world. "You entered the industry late, and you don't understand some things. How often do gangs fight and kill each other on the Qingshan County ground? Black Tiger Gang people are collecting debts in the north of the city, and people from the Big Sword Gang are snatching goods in the south of the city. It would be strange if three or five people don't die in a month."
"The county government never pays attention to this kind of bad debts, and it can't be dealt with."
After he finished speaking, he got on the yellow gelding parked on the side of the road, grabbed the reins and walked towards East Street.
"Close the team!"
The young officer trotted up to catch up, still a little uneasy. "Captain Fang, is this case really not going to be investigated? Bald Liu is also considered the number one person in Black Tiger Gang. If the superiors investigate..."
"When the superiors asked, they said it was a gang vendetta and Black Tiger Gang would handle it himself."
Captain Fang didn't even look back, with a hint of impatience in his tone. "Where do you serve as a county government? How many people are there in all three shifts of government officials? Today there are missing persons, tomorrow there is gang fighting, and the day after tomorrow there are masters seeking revenge. We have to investigate every single thing. Even my ten lives are not enough."
He sighed, "So, pretend to be stupid when you need to, and report when you need to report. The first rule of being a police officer is not to get in trouble with yourself."
The officers looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't say anything.
Fang Biao slapped the horse's butt, and everyone behind him quickly followed.
The entrance to the alley north of Caishikou in the east of the city was already crowded with people watching the excitement.
The bold ones stretched their necks and looked into the alley, clicking their tongues.
There were seven or eight strong men in black lying in various directions in the alley, some were still unconscious, and some were completely cold.
Several Black Tiger Gang minions were guarding the alley, driving away the crowd of onlookers with ugly faces.
"What are you looking at! Get away from me!"
One of the minions was waving a wooden stick and shouting curses.
Someone in the crowd whispered, "There was a lot of noise here last night. My mother-in-law said she heard someone screaming, like a pig was being killed..."
Another person answered, "You deserve it! These beasts Black Tiger Gang smashed up my shop last month and injured my man. He still can't get out of bed."
"Shh... keep your voice down, are you going to die?"
The guy glared over, and most of the crowd immediately dispersed.
Chengxi Willow Twig Alley,
Master Hu is sitting on the Taishi chair, holding a cup of cold tea in his hand.
There were two people kneeling on the ground in front of him, both with bandages on their bodies, and one of them had his arm hanging around his neck.
They were the two who were lucky enough to be able to walk among the strong men in black who were maimed by Jiang Fa in Caishikou alley last night.
"Tell me! What's going on?" Master Hu said in a cold voice.
The two people kneeling on the ground shivered together.
The one on the left hit his forehead on the ground and said in a trembling voice, "Master Hu, that kid... that kid struck too hard. Liu Tou didn't even catch a single move, and was sent flying by his punch..."
"You didn't catch a single move?"
Master Hu narrowed his eyes slightly. "Bald Liu is also Early An Jin after all. Although he is not the top in the gang, he is still trained through hard work. He was beaten to death when he met him... What do you think of that kid's cultivation level?"
The strong man on the right raised his head with a serious look on his face. "At least dark...Middle An Jin."
"Middle An Jin."
Master Hu repeated the word.
Then he turned his head to look at the scarred face beside him and asked, "Have you checked?"
Scarface nodded, took out a folded piece of paper from his arms and handed it over. "I checked clearly. You know this person too, brother."
"Oh?" Master Hu raised his eyebrows and stroked his goatee with his hand. "I know him too?"
Scarface nodded and explained, "This man came to us last year to borrow usury money, and I brought him in at that time."
Master Hu took the piece of paper and muttered softly, "Jiang Fa, Zhao Clan Martial Hall disciples of the inner courtyard, entered the hall in March last year, with low bones. Half a year later, they broke through An Jin. Now they have cultivated to Middle An Jin, and are now enshrined by Qingshan County Lin Lineage."
"So it's him?" Master Hu looked at the name above and finally remembered the shabby young man in his mind.
He pondered for a moment,
"It's quite interesting for a low-level person to earn An Jin a year."
The two people kneeling on the ground did not dare to say a word.
Scarface hesitated to speak, "Master Hu, in the final analysis, it was the bald Mr. Liu who broke the rules. I didn't want to meddle in other people's business. It was the bald man who raised the price and asked for three hundred taels when he opened his mouth. That's why he pissed me off."
Master Hu did not answer the call.
Of course he knows the virtues of a bald man,
There have been times when I was kicked against the iron wall before, but relying on Black Tiger Gang's reputation, most of the opponents swallowed their anger.
This time it was good, he kicked the tip of the knife and was killed.
"Where is that family?"
"I left the city overnight and I don't know where I'm going."
Scarface shook his head,
Master Hu tapped his fingers on the armrest of the Grand Master's chair, and after a moment he slowly spoke, "Bald Liu's pension will be handled according to the rules. His subordinates will be sent to other places after they have recovered from their injuries, so that they can be more peaceful in the future."
Scarface responded, then tentatively asked, "What about the martial arts boy..."
"Don't move yet."
Master Hu glanced coldly at the two kneeling people.
"As for you two, you have failed more than succeeded, so please go down first."
The two of them kowtowed repeatedly as if they had been granted amnesty.
The scarred face of Guang Dao frowned slightly, obviously unwilling. "Master Hu, although that kid has a few tricks, but we Black Tiger Gang have been operating in Qingshan County for so many years. If we just swallow this breath and spread it, wouldn't it be a joke? Do you want me to bring a few people..."
"How many people will you take?"
Master Hu interrupted him and sneered, "How many people are you bringing? Ten? Twenty? There is a big tree Zhao Clan Martial Hall standing behind him. It was us who broke the rules first. If you bring people to block him today, tomorrow Zhao Zhong will bring people to block me."
He stood up and walked to the window with his hands behind his back. "In this world, big fists are the rule. In the past, we had big fists, so we had the final say. Now that others have bigger fists than us, we should just endure it for now. When we find an opportunity one day, it won't be too late to settle the score."
He turned around and scanned everyone's faces with his eyes like knives. "Before I say anything, who dares to go to that person to cause trouble without permission? You will be responsible for the consequences. Do you understand?"
"Understood."
Scarface lowered his head and said no more.
Blood Wolf Gang Headquarters,
Ding Wanshan sat in the main seat with a gloomy face.
"Wolf San hasn't come back yet?"
He asked this question for the third time.
No one in the hall dared to respond.
Chai Wenyuan said in a low voice, "Gang leader, in the Wolf Three Body Dharma Crown Jue Gang, even if you can't deal with that kid, it won't be a problem to escape. Maybe you were delayed by something."
At this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps came from outside the hall.
The thin monkey stumbled in, his face full of panic.
"Gang leader! Gang leader!"
He knelt down in the hall with a plop. "Third Master... Third Master, he..."
Ding Wanshan frowned,
"Say! What's wrong with Wolf Three?"
The thin monkey knelt on the ground, his lips trembled several times before he finally squeezed out a complete sentence. "Third Master... is gone..."
There was a deathly silence in the hall.
