Second Boss Zhao Qing
The two bandits looked at each other and understood each other's intentions.
Then, they spat out the steamed bun in their mouths.
"Hurry up and move the knife over with your foot."
"Okay!"
The two of them worked together and quickly moved the knife to one of them.
The rope was a bit thick, so it took a lot of effort to cut it. The two men were sweating profusely and their wrists were red from the rope's stranglehold.
Streaks of blood appeared on their wrists.
"Da Chui, what do we do now?" Tie San asked.
"What do you mean? Hurry up and run! "
Da Chui pulled Tie San and rushed out.
"There are people outside!" Tie San reminded them.
The two men stopped at the door and looked outside. They saw Jing Rong's guards standing guard outside.
Forcing their way out was obviously out of the question.
Da Chui was very quick-witted. He grabbed Tie San and said, "Hurry up and scream!"
"Ah?"
"Scream!"
Tie San was dumbfounded until Da Chui smashed down on his head.
He immediately screamed.
"Ah!"
The guard outside heard the noise and turned around to open the door.
The two of them hid behind the door.
When the guard came in, he first looked inside and his eyes fell on the bead. He found that the two bandits were no longer there. On the ground, there was a cut rope.
He immediately realized that there was a problem.
"Not good!"
The guard was about to turn around and report, but when he turned around, his head was hit by something and he immediately fainted.
However, Da Chui and Tie San were still not satisfied. They kicked the bodyguard a few more times before cautiously leaving the room.
Little did they know that Jing Rong had already sent people to guard all the exits on the second floor.
"What should we do, Da Chui?"
"What else can we do? Let's wait and see if we can rush out."
"But …"
Before Tie San could finish his words, they heard a burst of voices coming from the inn's entrance.
"Hurry up! Bring out the good wine and dishes!"
Ten to twenty men swarmed in from outside. Each of them was arrogant and despotic. They were dressed in strange coarse clothes. If they weren't wearing tiger skins, they were wearing deerskins. Moreover, each of them had a scimitar at their waist.
They were obviously barbarians and mountain bandits.
After everyone came in, they parted to form a path.
A tall man wearing genuine leather boots walked in. His face was covered in stubble and his hair was disheveled. His forehead was tied with a yellowish strip of cloth, making his eyebrows look even sharper.
That pair of bright eyes, however, revealed an innate ruthlessness of a man.
No one dared to look him in the eye!
"Big Brother, sit here."
Ba Hu shouted.
Zhao Qing, who was being addressed as' Big Brother ', strode over. Ba Hu hurriedly wiped the stool clean with his sleeve.
As soon as Zhao Qing sat down, the shopkeeper came over.
As if he was used to such a scene, he bent over and asked with a cheeky smile, "Second Master, what wine do you want?"
Zhao Qing didn't even look at him. He picked up the chopsticks on the table and poked at them.
Ba Hu kicked Zhang Gu's butt and said, "Just like before, hurry up and serve the wine. If you spoil my big brother's mood, do you believe that I won't kill you?"
He raised his hand, as if he was about to hit someone.
The shopkeeper tilted his body and lowered his head, trembling in fear. He quickly said, "Yes, yes, yes. I'll hurry up and bring it to all of you."
Saying so, he quickly went to serve the wine.
As soon as he reached the backstage, the waiter whispered in his ear, "Shopkeeper, why don't we report this to the authorities? Those people are bandits. During this period of time, the number of people in the inn has decreased a lot. If this continues, the inn will be eaten up by those people sooner or later."
The shopkeeper scowled.
He sighed as he picked up the wine jar. "This inn was passed down from my father's generation. I can't let it be destroyed in my hands. Even if I die, I will protect this inn."
"Then hurry up and report it to the authorities!"
"Report it to the authorities?" The shopkeeper said helplessly, "Our Shanhuai County's County Magistrate won't care at all. Officials bully the people, bandits bully the authorities – we can only accept it. Who knows, if we report it to the authorities, those people might burn down my inn. Wouldn't I be making a huge loss then?"
"But what will happen to the inn if this goes on? The inn won't be able to sustain itself if there's no one staying. "The waiter was worried.
Sigh …
The shopkeeper glanced outside and shook his head. "Forget it, forget it. Let's drink then. We still have to treat these ancestors well."
Helpless.
Da Chui and Tie San were crouching on the second floor above them, waiting for the right moment to rush out.
Unfortunately, they ran into the group below.
"So it's Second Master and the others," Tie San exclaimed.
"Who would've thought that it's been a year since I last saw Second Master," Da Chui sighed.
But Tie San didn't think too much about it. He quickly pulled Da Chui, "Da Chui, let's hurry and call Second Master to save us!"
Smack!
Da Chui's palm landed on Tie San's head.
"A year ago, First Master and Second Master had a falling out. Both sides are as incompatible as fire and water. If you ask Second Master to save us now, not only will he not save us, he might even kill us. Even if he does save us, wouldn't it be a slap to his face when First Master finds out? You and I can forget about living. "
"This …"
Tie San rubbed his head. That was indeed the case.
Originally, the First Master and Second Master of the Gaoshan Gang had a very good relationship. However, a year ago, for some unknown reason, the two of them suddenly had a falling out and started fighting in the Gaoshan Gang. From then on, Second Master Zhao Qing brought his men and left the Gaoshan Gang, establishing another Gaoshan Gang on another hill.
In the past year, First Master and Second Master Zhao Qing had never met each other again.
If their men met on the hill, they would fight each other!
Over time, two gangs were formed.
Of course, all kinds of rumors began to spread among the gangs.
Some said that First Master had captured a woman, and that the woman happened to be Second Master's woman. Hence, the two fell out.
Others said that Second Master was ambitious and wanted to kill his own brother to become the king of the Gaoshan Gang. In the end, he was discovered, and the two fell out.
Some even said that Second Master was worried about First Master's actions, so he left the Gaoshan Gang with his men because the Imperial Court would send people to exterminate the Gaoshan Gang in the future.
…
There were all kinds of rumors!
At this time, all the seats on the first floor were occupied by the bandits.
Zhao Qing's face was ferocious, the chopsticks in his hand knocking on the table.
Around the table, a group of people was making a ruckus.
There were all kinds of comments. When the shopkeeper served the wine, everyone began to play finger-guessing games to see who was drinking.
Ba Hu poured a bowl of wine for Zhao Qing. "Big Brother, drink."
Zhao Qing narrowed his eyes and threw the chopsticks in his hand at the pillar.
