I have an endless army of warriors, rampaging across the heavens.
Chapter 53 I don’t agree!
Chapter 53 I don’t agree!
That's it!
That makes sense.
Not only Meng Lou, but the entire Shangyang City was certain that the Green Bamboo Gang was the one who targeted Meng Lou.
There is no point in making excuses!
If it weren't for the fact that the Green Bamboo Gang had someone backing them up, and if Zhang Zhiwan hadn't sworn an oath that there was absolutely no such thing, the Green Bamboo Gang would probably have disappeared from Shangyang City even earlier than Meng Lou.
Now that time has come.
If Meng Lou couldn't hold on, the Green Bamboo Gang couldn't hold on either.
The higher-ups gave the order—
"Since you keep saying that it wasn't done by my Green Bamboo Gang, then let my Green Bamboo Gang handle this matter."
"If both sides shake hands and make peace, Meng Lou will live, and we will benefit. It's a win-win situation."
Zhang Zhiwan's face darkened: "Those bastards took advantage of the chaos to frame me, and now they're making my Green Bamboo Gang take the blame! This is intolerable!"
In the past two months, the Green Bamboo Gang has been attacking cities and plundering strongholds. In fact, they have already taken a lot of territory from the Flying Tiger Gang and Meng Lou, and have gained a lot of benefits from many industries and territories.
at this time.
Even without Meng Lou's partial profit, Zhang Zhiwan felt he could stop now.
Therefore, the half-profit was less of a 'trophy' and more of a fee paid by Meng Lou to Qingzhu for helping him eliminate the negative impact.
Everything in the world is for profit.
There are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.
Ever since.
Two forces that were fighting to the death one moment have become allies the next.
Looking back at the corpses and bloodstains scattered on the ground, it all seems utterly ridiculous.
……
"ridiculous!"
"Want to shake hands and make peace?"
"Have you asked me?"
Zuo Jing firmly disagreed.
But after possessing Zhou San and hearing the contents of the peace talks, he immediately laughed: "Let the Qingzhu Gang handle the series of assassinations of Menglou's guests?"
Haha!
What's the difference between this and having monkeys guard the peach orchard or mice guard the rice granary?
Originally, Menglou had closed down for rectification, and no customers came anymore, so the assassination attempt had stopped.
Now, after the peace talks, Menglou has reopened.
So--
"Hunting time!"
"It's starting again!"
……
"Damn!"
"So awesome!"
Liu Haixin walked out of Menglou feeling completely refreshed.
There are many entertainment options in Shangyang City, but as the son of the prefect of Shangyang Prefecture, he had long been tired of other places. Only Menglou had a variety of entertainment options and was constantly innovating, which made him linger there.
The recent incident at Menglou, which led to its closure and rectification, really frustrated him.
He kept urging the prefect of Shangyang Prefecture to solve the case as soon as possible, bring those troublemakers and villains to justice, restore a bright and clear world to Shangyang City, and restore prosperity to Menglou.
Today it is today.
It is already July.
Menglou finally reopened, and Liu Haixin was overjoyed, coming to support it immediately.
Holding Xiao Hong and Xiao Cui in their arms, they returned home thoroughly satisfied.
"Comfortable!"
Liu Haixin's face was beaming with happiness.
It would be even better if it weren't for the four stern-faced guards following behind.
"leave me alone!"
"Disappointment!"
Liu Haixin was unwilling to be protected: "Who the hell has the guts to lay a hand on the Lord's son? Do they have a death wish?"
You're the one who thinks you have too much life!
He'd rather be a prostitute than risk his life!
The guards rolled their eyes inwardly.
Don't you know how big a deal Meng Lou got into before?
You dare to come back after this?
Aren't you afraid of being shut down?
Come on whatever you say.
Here.
No sooner had Liu Haixin finished speaking than a dozen people suddenly sprang out from the street, each wielding a throwing axe, aiming straight for Liu Haixin's head.
"Protect the young master!"
The four guards shouted and their swords flew as they parried the flying axe.
however.
Suddenly, a silent, cunning arrow pierced through the protection of four guards, striking Liu Haixin squarely in the heart—"I can't—"
"……die!"
Liu Haixin's eyes widened, and he died on the spot.
"Son!"
The four guards were shocked to see this.
Then he flew into a rage: "You're asking for it!"
Of course, I'm not saying Liu Haixin was courting death, but rather that the attacker was courting death.
The four men gave chase, just as a patrol team from the nearby Green Bamboo Gang arrived and shouted, "Assassins! Four assassins!"
The four guards stopped in their tracks and quickly turned around to explain, "We are guards, not assassins!"
The underling there said coldly, "We'll talk when Master Fang arrives!"
Not long after.
Fang Xing, the twenty-first leader of the Green Bamboo Gang, arrived.
When I saw the body on the ground—
hum!
My head suddenly exploded.
He knew that something big had happened!
……
"Hong Gu, Hong Gu, something terrible has happened!"
"Something happened!"
Someone came to report.
Red Girl stood up, her face flushed, a strong man clinging to her: "Red Slave."
Hong Gu immediately softened.
no way.
This guy named Zheng Shiba is not only 1.8 meters tall and looks like he's 18, but he's also 18 in every way. He's also proficient in all eighteen martial arts. In less than a month, he made Hong Gu completely fall for him.
Of all the dozens of male concubines I've had, none have been as capable as this one.
Hong Gu was so engrossed in it that she couldn't extricate herself.
She told Zheng Shiba to pull it out, and said gently, "My dear master, Hongnu will be right back."
Business matters.
Hong Gu dared not delay. After calming her lover down a bit, she quickly stepped forward, her pretty face still flushed, but her expression was cold and she asked in a deep voice, "What is it?"
The messenger said urgently, "Young Master Liu Haixin has been killed. Prefect Liu Chunlin is furious and is leading his men to Menglou."
"Oops!"
Hong Gu was extremely anxious: "What kind of work is the Green Bamboo Gang doing? Why didn't they send someone to protect such an important person?!"
She never expected that such a serious incident would occur less than three days after Menglou reopened.
Now!
Tricky!
Hong Gu left in a hurry.
After she left, on the bed, Zuo Jing possessed Zheng Shiba and muttered to himself, "Liu Haixin has been killed, and Liu Chunlin is leading people to surround Menglou. Hong Gu, along with Peng Dingqiu and others, are about to go forward to deal with them. You must quickly mobilize your men to find Menglou's accounts from previous years and the register of people bought and sold!"
This Zheng Shiba was none other than a seventh-level assassin under Zuo Jing.
He had no other skills except for his expertise in bed, possessing countless tricks and superb techniques. Through a traitor within Menglou, he appeared before Hong Gu, who was fond of keeping male lovers, and was taken as her concubine, with their days and nights intertwined.
Zheng Shiba also learned a lot of secrets from this 'red slave' that were only known to the upper echelons of Menglou.
For example, accounts.
such as--
"register!"
……
"It's too difficult to close a deal."
"It's easy to disrupt a business deal."
That's why business people believe in "harmony brings wealth".
"This incident may not have been done by the Green Bamboo Gang, and even the previous incidents may not have been done by the Green Bamboo Gang."
"Some people are taking advantage of the chaos to target Meng Lou, but they're making the Green Bamboo Gang take the blame."
"Peng, think carefully, have you offended anyone recently?"
Peng Dingqiu stood like a lackey, listening to the old man's instructions.
Other enemies?
He racked his brains: "Recently, only the Green Bamboo Gang has been causing trouble, but in the past..."
It's hard to judge.
Peng Dingqiu couldn't believe it; it wasn't that there weren't any, but rather that there were too many.
"As you know, Mr. Wu, Meng Lou's business is so big that it's inevitable that he'll block people's path to wealth and incur their resentment."
"It's really hard to guess who's behind this."
Peng Dingqiu was helpless.
Old Wu instructed him: "Think about it carefully again. Who benefits the most from this matter? There is no such thing as a baseless attack. There must be some benefit involved. Meng Lou has fallen. Whoever benefits the most is the most suspicious."
