Martial Arts Song

Chapter 389:
"I didn't want to bother with you guys, but since it's endless, let's end it as soon as possible."

Walking on the way to Gangqiao Pier, Chen Qingyi's eyes, which exuded a coldness, were slightly narrowed.

He was at the "Cloud" organization's base in Gangqiao. After reading the information about "Cui Wenjue", the ace killer of the "Wind" organization, he walked here.

Although before that, when he demonstrated the strength of the expert group to Jiang Ying in Chenxing District, he defeated hundreds of people from the Axe Gang.

But among the hundreds of people, except for Boss Zhu from Chenxing District and a few leaders who shot at him, he did not kill the others. At most, they just suffered some injuries.

The next day, he also learned from Lu Hongfeng that after the incident, the real boss of the Axe Gang, Wang Chen, came and said some harsh words in order to save his face.

But he didn't really take it to heart.

Right now, the war between Liuying and Yangguo is on the verge of breaking out. It is a tense moment. The military of "Hu Hai" is probably in a state of panic at the moment and has no time to care about such trivial matters.

So he didn't think that Wang Chen, the real boss of the Axe Gang, would do anything - at least in the short term, the other party would not cause trouble for him.

After all, the other party couldn't be 100% sure of his identity in the first place, and could only connect him with his masked identity through the "prison break" incident at the Chenxing District Police Station that day.

However, his identity during the "prison break" was that of Lu Hongfeng's friend, and the fearlessness and means he displayed, even if they did not match those of the famous martial artists in Dongcheng, at least they were closely related to those in Dongcheng.

As long as Wang Chen, the leader of the Axe Gang, is not crazy, he will not easily cause trouble to him before he is sure of success.

Chen Qing didn't bother to pay any attention to the other party as long as he didn't cause trouble for him, considering that the other party had the military behind him.

But now the boss of the Axe Gang seemed unable to see the current situation clearly. At this critical juncture, he actually spent a whopping eight million yuan to find an ace killer to kill him!
Chen Qing really didn't know what was going on in the other person's mind.

"This kind of madness is somewhat similar to Tang Hongquan's state at that time..."

Thinking of this, Chen Qing couldn't help but frown.

Wang Chen, the leader of the Axe Gang, did indeed act on impulse, as if he had been bewitched and instigated.

But Chen Qing couldn't understand. Although he and the other party were both in Dongcheng, they had never had much contact with each other, and had never even met each other!

He had only met his confidant, a man named Liang Tiansheng, twice.

If it weren't for Jiang Ying's matter, given Chen Qing's cautiousness, he probably wouldn't have had any dealings with the other party for a certain period of time.

After all, Chen Qing actually came to the East City of "Hu Hai" more than half a year ago, and not long after he arrived, the Axe Gang received instructions from the military and began a plan to expand and unify the East City gangs.

Chen Qing had no encounter with the Axe Gang when the other party was growing wildly and attacking and ruling gangs in various districts of East City, not to mention that the Axe Gang now rules all gangs in East City.

In this way, there is neither intersection nor conflict of interest. In addition, Chen Qing is cautious, so it should be impossible for a "supernatural" master to instigate Wang Chen to go crazy and cause trouble for him.

But this is exactly the situation now!
Chen Qing walked all the way here, thinking for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what was going on between him and Wang Chen that was worthy of provocation.

Moreover, he is no longer the newbie who knew nothing about the three elements of "essence, energy and spirit" when he was in Qianyang.

All along, he either kept Xuanfeng or Jueying by his side, just to prevent himself from being secretly spied on by a master of "divine transformation" without knowing it.

Therefore, if there really was a "supernatural" master who had secretly spied on him, he should have discovered it long ago.

Therefore, he could only attribute the madness of Wang Chen, the Axe Gang leader, to the fact that this person might have some "super male" syndrome or was being instructed by someone.

However, no matter what the reason is, since the other party has come to this point, Chen Qing will naturally not be merciful.

He currently cannot find the ace killer of the "Wind" organization, but as the Axe Gang is the only gang in East City and Wang Chen is the real boss of this gang, he can find him.

First, get rid of Wang Chen at the source and see if "Feng" will use the "final right of interpretation" to cancel his task because his employer was eliminated.

If the "wind" side doesn't cancel, we'll talk about it then.

Anyway, Chen Qing now has the three signal smoke bombs given by Luo Zongping, so he is not afraid of the ace killer of the "Wind" organization.

At worst, he could use a signal cigarette cartridge and ask Luo Zongping for help. It just so happened that Luo Zongping seemed to be trying to win his favor in an obscure way, intentionally or unintentionally.

Thinking of this, Chen Qing's thoughts gradually became focused, because after walking for a while, he had arrived at the iron isolation net of the harbor bridge pier.

When he came here for the second time, Chen Qing saw that it was the same as the first time he came here.

At the entrance and exit of the iron fence, a group of informal Axe Gang members gathered together, burning charcoal to keep warm and playing cards.

Behind the iron isolation fence, there are many trucks. Groups of porters in linen clothes are loading and unloading goods inside. From time to time, a train loaded with goods will drive out from somewhere.

There is no trace left of the damage caused by Chen Qing last time.

"Who are you looking for?"

Outside the iron fence, someone among the outer members of the Axe Gang who was not far from Chen Qing soon noticed Chen Qing and asked.

Because unlike last time when he wore a suit and a black soft rubber mask, this time Chen Qing wore a set of black shorts and did not wear a mask, so the outer members of the Axe Gang did not recognize him.

Moreover, because of the shorts Chen Qing was wearing, these people treated him as someone of the same class and their attitude towards him was neither cold nor indifferent.

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing smiled slightly and replied, "I heard that this side of the dock is the territory of the Axe Gang. I'm here to join the Axe Gang. I'm a good fighter!"

"How good is your fighting ability?"

After hearing Chen Qing's words, the informal members of the Axe Gang were still in a lazy attitude. The one who asked Chen Qing a question even laughed and said, "No matter how good you are at fighting, can you block bullets? What's the point of being able to fight..."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Qing chuckled and replied, "Yes! You will know if it works after you try it."

The person who made the joke was stunned after hearing this.

The other Axe Gang members who were gathered at the fire outside the door were also stunned, and then they all turned to look at Chen Qing...

……

As night falls, the lights on the shop signs on both sides of the street gradually light up.

Although it is not as brightly lit as the West City, some areas have also formed a colorful landscape of flashing neon lights.

"Sea Music" dance hall.

The flickering sign lights illuminate the passers-by passing by the door.

At the entrance of the "Haishang Le" dance hall, it was crowded with people. Cars were parked on the edge of the road and extended for a long distance along the intersections at both ends of the street.

Men and women dressed in suits, dresses, long gowns, and windbreakers entered the "Haishangle" dance hall one after another. At the entrance of the dance hall, groups of formal members of the Axe Gang wearing black suits and combed back hair kept greeting the guests.

Tonight, the "Haishang Le" dance hall is more lively than ever.

Of course, such excitement made many people who were called here but didn't know the inside story feel extremely surprised.

Someone came in from the intersection and saw the "grand occasion" here, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "What day is today? Why is it so lively here?"

As soon as he asked, the person accompanying him made a gesture to keep quiet and warned him in a low voice, "Keep your voice down. It is said that something happened at 'Sea Music' last night, and many dancers and musicians were injured. Then all the dancers and musicians were scared and didn't want to work anymore. But 'Sea Music' is a very profitable place for the Axe Gang, so the Axe Gang's boss Brother Chen personally 'persuaded' those dancers and musicians, and during the daytime today, he notified most of the merchants in Gangqiao to come here to play, and hinted that they should be more generous. He used both kindness and force to appease those dancers and musicians."

"Ah? Something happened in 'Sea Music'? No way? Is there anyone who dares to mess with the Axe Gang?"

The person who asked the question became even more curious and asked.

"Who knows? It's probably some big shot in the military. A few days ago, I heard that Jincheng has assembled warships and is heading towards Huhai. It seems that our Huhai military has also taken action. Although East City is not as developed as West City, its strategic value is not inferior to West City. Didn't you see that the military has used the excuse of a strike a few days ago to permanently station in the nine districts of East City? It's normal for those big shots to come and play on weekdays."

The person who spoke earlier answered again.

The person who asked the question suddenly realized, "No wonder! Although the Axe Gang is powerful, it is indeed far inferior to the military. Unfortunately, we are the ones who suffer in the end and have to pay for their losses..."

When he spoke of the latter part, he shook his head repeatedly.

The person who answered covered his mouth immediately after hearing this, and scolded him in a low voice: "Shut up! If someone hears you, it won't be as simple as paying the bill!"

……

A rickshaw slowly drove towards the crowded intersection.

When the rickshaw driver saw the crowds on the street, he was startled, then turned to look at the passengers in the rickshaw, and said with embarrassment: "Dear guest, how about you get off here? There are too many people in front, I am afraid it will be difficult for me to take you to the door of 'Haishangle' in a short time. I can reduce the fare by two yuan, or three yuan is fine!"

"It's okay, just stop here."

After hearing what the driver said, Chen Qing smiled and said, "No need to underestimate it. Just give it what it should be."

After saying that, he reached into his pocket, took out some money, paid the fare, and got out of the car.

"You are so generous, sir!"

After taking the fare, the rickshaw driver gave Chen Qing a thumbs up, then drove away.

Chen Qing stood at the intersection, looking at the crowded entrance of the "Haishang Le" dance hall in front of him with a calm face.

Although the people at Gangqiao Wharf are all peripheral members of the Axe Gang, the wharf is a port of trade and is of utmost importance!

Therefore, among these peripheral members at the dock, there must be someone who knows Wang Chen’s specific location every night, or knows how to contact Wang Chen, the leader of the Axe Gang, so that Wang Chen can be notified in time if anything happens.

When Chen Qing went to Gangqiao Wharf for the first time and beat up the peripheral members of the Axe Gang, he eventually attracted Liang Tiansheng and his target at the time, "Qiao Yaozong".

Chen Qing kept this in mind at that time.

Therefore, after leaving the base of the "Yun" organization, he went straight to the Gangqiao Pier, with the purpose of asking from the pier where Wang Chen was tonight.

Originally, he could have asked the "Yun" organization to help investigate this matter. With his current status as a gold medal killer, he could use the "Yun" intelligence organization for free.

But the process from use to results would probably take one or two days, but Chen Qing couldn't wait.

Therefore, he finally chose to do it himself.

The result was naturally what he expected.

After some "friendly exchanges", he asked from the dock where Wang Chen was tonight - that is, the "Haishang Le" dance hall not far from him on the street in front of him.

This is also Chen Qing’s second time here.

The last time he came, he had just joined the "Yun" organization and was doing the mission of surrendering himself.

"Something happened here last night, causing all the dancers and musicians inside to not want to work anymore?"

With Chen Qing's sharp hearing, he could naturally hear the noise here from a long distance, and heard a lot of information among the noisy sounds.

Naturally, he also heard the conversation between several people at the intersection just now.

Therefore, looking at the "Haishang Le" dance hall in front of him, a trace of caution appeared on his face.

But now that he's here, he must do what he should do.

He just observed the "Haishang Le" dance hall in the distance for a moment, then took a step and walked into the crowd.

……

The dazzling colorful lights kept flashing, illuminating the dark-themed dance hall.

The cheerful music and the dancers on the stage wearing shiny clothes like high-cut swimsuits and dancing to the music made the atmosphere in the whole dance hall very hot, and all kinds of cheers and boos could be heard continuously.

Drinkers sat down in various seats in the dance hall, clinking glasses, chatting and laughing, while also enjoying the performances on the stage.

Some of the drinkers were accompanied by scantily clad hostesses.

In a large booth at the corner of the dance hall.

Wang Chen, Liang Tiansheng, and several other figures sat inside.

The two people, who were already accustomed to this kind of place, watched the excitement in the dance hall quietly.

After a long while, Wang Chen waved to Liang Tiansheng next to him.

After Liang Tiansheng leaned over to listen, he asked calmly: "Go and see who came and who didn't. Write down the names of those who didn't come. I will settle accounts with them later."

"Okay, Brother Chen."

Liang Tiansheng heard this, responded, then stood up and left the big booth.

After Liang Tiansheng left, Wang Chen turned around and looked at the three figures sitting next to him. A smile instantly appeared on his stern face and he said, "Three of you, my life and property are in your hands for the time being. You are all my friends who I want to make friends with even at the risk of offending the Gao'an Bureau. Please don't let me down!"
