in charge

"You've got the wrong person." Fat Shrimp waved his hands and walked straight into the store.

Mo Zi thought, isn't this nonsense?One may be wrong, three are all wrong, and it is completely impossible.It was warm and cold in spring, and he was only wearing a burlap jacket with sleeves rolled up, and he had a whale-shaped tattoo on his forearm.

He let Fat Xia shake his hand, his eyes were full of disbelief, and he called out.

The water snake ignored him, and followed his elder brother closely.

Only Smelly Fish, Yan pursed his mouth, his usual laughing and laughing expression was swept away, it was a little frighteningly cold, staring at each other for a long time, the corners of his mouth twisted into disdain.

"Brother Yu, you..." The man's face had changed from surprise to embarrassment.

"Who is your brother?" Smelly Fish snorted, drove him away, and strode towards the two elder brothers.

When everyone sat down around a table, Mo Zi saw that the man looked so ashamed, standing there, looking this way, as if hesitating whether to come or not. °

"Brother Mo, don't pay attention to him." Fat Xia followed Mo Zi's line of sight.

"This villain is ungrateful, I knew he would not have a good life." Smelly Fish called for a jar of old wine, easily slapped open the mud seal, and the aroma of the wine immediately overflowed, "Look at his outfit, he is getting better and better. Hun Yue back. With a lot of age, he looks like a gangster who is running away, so fucking cowardly."

"Little brother, he has already locked up with us." Water Snake took the wine jar, poured wine for Mo Zi, and filled it up for Zan Jin and the others one by one.

"This old boy came to Huazhou for nothing, and he pretended to be close to us, as if he was so happy that my brother was alive and well. I was upset when I saw it!" comfortable.

"Okay." Fat Shrimp boss said, "Eat wine. If you don't drink, just eat. Shut up."

With such a sudden situation, eating really became eating, and I didn't ask anyone about it.It's just that the old acquaintance of Brother Smelly Fish was short of a dime for wine and wine when reconciling the account, which made the clerk nagging for a long time.That person was probably a regular customer, and he had the cheek to say that after a few days of credit, he would get a lot of money soon.

When the man begged bitterly, he didn't look at Smelly Fish and the others to convince Mo Zi that he was finally a bit manly and planned to ask them to borrow money.

After he left, Mo Zi heard the waiter complain to the shopkeeper.

"You, the shopkeeper, are too soft-hearted. The surname Qiao owes us a lot of wine money in the store. If you add up to at least five or six taels of silver, how can you still let it go on credit?"

The shopkeeper sighed, "You don't even look at who the other party is if you want to pay."

The guy took a sip, "So what if he belongs to the Whale Gang? The Whale Gang's power is not in Miancheng, and only some boat gangsters have moved around in the past two years. This is the capital city of Huazhou, where there are the Governor's Mansion, the Yamen Office, and the State Army , even if they want to make trouble, they have to look at the place."

The shopkeeper said: "You think too simply. The leader of the Whale Gang, Yu Zhong, is not easy to mess with. Two years ago, we had never heard of the Whale Gang. Now, how many shops have paid them protection money? If not Qiao Laosi often sits in our store, and I am afraid that people will also get it. What is five taels of silver? If you really want to pay those people, 50 taels is not enough. Forget it, he said that he will pay it back. You are new here, so I don’t know about his job. It’s a normal job, but you can earn a lot of money once you do it. He said last time that he is the poorest in the winter month and has to wait for the spring. Also wait."

At this time, there were two more tables of guests who wanted to check out, and the clerk hurried over.

That night, Mo Zi tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. For some reason, the scene of meeting Qiao's fourth child during the day was replayed in front of her eyes again and again.I had no choice but to put on my coat and go out of the cabin, trying to calm myself down.

It was very quiet on board.The boat entering the port is like being in the arms of a mother, and everyone is at ease.Except for those who are on duty at night, or disembarked to have fun, or have already fallen asleep.

"Brother Mo?" The mast clanged, and a man fell down from above, it was the stinky fish, "Are you still asleep?"

"You weren't on duty tonight, didn't you sleep?" Mo Zi was not surprised when she saw him.She had known that the three brothers had extraordinary skills, and perhaps their backgrounds were also extraordinary, but it was difficult to ask.

"I'm upset, I can't sleep." Smelly fish has very good eyesight, so the most frequent place to stay is the barrel.

"Me too. The fourth Joe—" Seeing Smelly Fish frowning, she immediately said carefully, "I just want to find out about his grievances with you, and I'm only interested in what kind of work he takes to pay back the money."

The stinky fish was curious, "Why?"

"Don't you think his job sounds a little familiar?" Mo Zi counted it out to Smelly Fish, "You can make a lot of money once you do it. There is no work in winter and busy in spring. It is neither a farmer nor a farmer. A fisherman, a lot like a shady business, more like—”

"Take the scum!" The stinky fish jumped up.

"Walking s Zi tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, it was just this thought that lingered.

"That old boy likes to drink and gamble, he can do this kind of thing." Smelly Fish seems to have forgotten that he has also been a sex dealer, "Brother Mo, if he sells sex, he must have a safe hidden line.

As long as we follow him, why not enter Yuling? "

"I'm just guessing like this. It's hard to say whether it's true or not." Mo Zi is cautious, "Besides, he has an old rift with the three of you brothers. I'm afraid that asking about him will make you feel uncomfortable."

"Brother Mo, it won't be my brother Wang who is uncomfortable." Fat Xia came out from the other end, followed by the water snake, "The three of us are incognito. It's really Nai. I've followed Brother Mo for so long, relying on Brother Mo's scenery, Only then can we live without being aggrieved. Now, it is also time to be frank and ngng, and we must not implicate Brother Mo because of us in the past."

The three Smelly Fish brothers used to be black people of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so at first they only worked as temporary boatmen and never lived in one place permanently, thus avoiding official inspections.Later, although he helped Mozi with errands, he stayed in the Wangqiu Tower as soon as he got off the boat, and rarely moved around.After entering the red cornel, he never moved his nest.In the end, they asked Mo Zi to join Ding Xiu Niu Gao and others to apply for a temporary household registration.Jiang Tao was the one who had the best chance of finding out the three black people, but at that time he let Bai He's craftsmanship grip his stomach, and also admired Mo Zi, so he didn't hold on to it.Therefore, they have a new identity, surnamed Lu, called Lu Xia, Lu Shi, and Lu Yu respectively.At least, that's how the temporary account is declared.

"It's your real name." When Smelly Fish saw his elder brother and second brother appearing like this, he knew it was time to talk to Mo Zi, "Elder brother said, if you even change the name given by your ancestors' surname, why don't the three brothers go together?" Throw yourself into the river."

The three brothers threw themselves into the river?Do you kill yourself, or do you harm the Dragon Palace?Mo Zi knew that she shouldn't laugh at this time, but she couldn't help pursing her lips, "Come on, go to my room and talk."

The four of them entered the cabin and found that Zanjin Dinggou was also there.

"You don't bring such a scary one." Ding Gou patted his heart, "I went to the opposite door to get a candle, and when I came back, the door was open and no one was there."

Zan Jin gave him a slap, which seemed to be quite vigorous, "What are you doing with the candle? Could it be that you have bad eyesight at night? You didn't have this problem before!"

Ding Gou suddenly coughed twice, "Reading, can't you?"

"Reading?" Smelly Fish forgot the topic for a while, and smiled mischievously, "Still reading paintings?"

Zan Jin suddenly realized that following these people, it is impossible not to learn to skate at all, "It was Mo Zi's turn to cough twice, and they were all older than her, so, "Brothers, I am a girl anyway, please be careful when you speak . "Speaking back to just now, "Fat Xia, if you don't want to support them to stay, you can just say so." "

Fat Shrimp said, "Zan Jin and Ding Gou are brother Mo's right and left hands, and also our good brothers. Besides, since we plan to hide or not, it doesn't matter who knows."

Zan Jin and Ding Gou exchanged glances.

Ding Gou asked, "But it's a daytime thing?"

Stinky Fish happened to be next, "That man's surname is Joe, he is the fourth eldest child in his family, and people call him the fourth child. Qiao's fourth child was a subordinate of the former head of the Whale Gang. Because of his excellent skills, he was invited to the head's house to teach his youngest son." .The youngest son is me. Qiao’s fourth son is not my master, but a teacher. After I learned his stick technique, he got along well with him, so he has followed me since then.”

"The three of you belong to the Whale Gang?" Mo Zi couldn't think of it.Moreover, he is also the son of the gang leader.

"That's right. My father's name is Lu Xi, and he is the son-in-law. The Whale Gang was founded by our grandfather, and he recruited a son-in-law because there was only one daughter of my mother. My father was unfortunately... honored to be elected. Although when I married my mother, because she was long It was dark and unsightly, and I was not happy about it. Of course, that was only at the beginning. Later, I bowed down to my mother, even though there were reasons why I couldn't beat my mother." Stinky Fish babbled too much.

"There is no need to talk about the things about parents." The water snake stopped in time, otherwise, if it continues like this, it may not be finished for three days and three nights.

"In short, besides my mother, my father's kung fu is already number one in the gang." What Smelly Fish wants to emphasize is this, "My father is good at everything else, but he trusted one person. This person is me. Father's brother-in-law, Yu Zhong, the current head of the Whale Gang. Yu Zhong was brought into the gang by my father. As my father rose step by step, his status also rose. After my father became the head of the gang, Yu Zhong served as the deputy. Leader. He is not very good at martial arts, but he is very sinister and cunning. My mother's intuition has always been accurate, so I asked my father not to believe too much in it, but my father always thinks that he is the only good brother who has survived his life, so he does not treat my mother Take your words to heart. Three years ago, my mother patrolled a sub-helm on behalf of my father. She was ambushed and died in an ambush. My father was overwhelmed with grief, and his health deteriorated day by day. He passed away not long after. It is also the fault of my three brothers. Naughty, there was no one who cared about the help at that time, and he was good at fighting fiercely."

"Ayu, there's no need to talk about these things." Fat Xia reminded his little brother again.

"Okay, just a word, the father and mother are not here, and the son is not good enough, so the power of the gang is temporarily taken over by Zhong. When Yu Zhonggang was appointed as the acting gang leader, he was pretty good to us, but after his position was stabilized, he began to be cold.

At this time, we found out that the cause of death of the parents may be inseparable from Yu Zhong.But his method was faster and more ruthless than ours. First, he arranged for people to commit the murder case, and then bribed some of our followers, stole personal belongings, and stayed at the scene of the murder to frame him.Among those followers, there was Qiao Laosi.The magistrate of the county had already accepted his bribe, beat us to death, escorted us to the capital, and killed us halfway.Thanks to the good skills of the three of us, we escaped after several twists and turns.After that, I just dawdled around in hiding until I met Lao Guan and you, Brother Mo. "From then on, I lived a really chic life, changing my appearance from the inside out. . .
