Chapter 42 Chapter IX Sincere Cooperation

Xiangyushan still looked like the prodigal son of the second generation ancestor who seemed to be asleep, with blue lips and white lips, but his smile was still so kind, and he sat down unceremoniously, happily saying: "Meeting an old friend in a foreign land is really a happy life. Who is this……" Kou Zhong introduced helplessly: "It's our sister." Ever since Xu Ziling knew that he belonged to the Baling Gang, which is famous for human trafficking, he hated this person from the bottom of his heart.He sneered and said: "Since Brother Xiang is a member of the Baling Gang, everyone can say that we are different and not conspiring with each other. Now we are not even friends, Brother Xiang is fine."

These words made Susu confused, she couldn't figure out the relationship between Xiangyu Mountain and the two of them. Kou Zhong said with a grin, "How could it be such a coincidence? Could it be that Brother Xiang has received the favor of that bastard from Peng Lianghui again, and wants to sell us?" Xiang Yushan was also tactful, he raised his hands in surrender and said: "Brother Xu and Kou have misunderstood, and even more misunderstood my gang, please let me..." Xu Ziling asked impatiently, "Could it be that what the Baling Gang sells is not human flesh but pork?"

Kou Zhong patted Xiang Yushan on the shoulder, smiled and said, "I heard that your gang is Yang Guang's running dog, but this is the territory of the Wagang Army. If Brother Xiang doesn't leave, it's our turn to betray you this time." Xiang Yushan smiled wryly and said: "Everyone met once, and there is no festival except for misunderstanding, don't the two brothers even give the younger brother a chance to argue?" Seeing that this person was being abused by the two of them in every possible way, Susu still kept her voice low and begged for survival, she couldn't bear it and said: "Give Mr. Xiang a chance to defend himself!"

Xiang Yushan said gratefully, "My sister is so kind." Xu Ziling said displeasedly: "She is not your sister." Kou Zhong said unhappily: "Fart, let go!" Xiangyushan indeed has amazing endurance, but he still didn't get angry, and said in a low voice: "Among the eight gangs and ten associations, our Baling gang is the second in the eight gangs. We have a very good reputation, and we only give it to some people who are greedy for profit. Yang Guang destroyed it." Kou Zhong leaned close to his ear and said with a strange smile: "Brother Ke Xiang looks like the kind of person who is greedy for profit!"

Xiang Yushan couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Brother Kou, don't hurt my younger brother." Xu Ziling wondered: "Being courteous to others, one must ask for something. Brother Xiang is so swallowed up, there must be some kind of conspiracy." At this time, Susu couldn't see it even more, and said slightly annoyed: "Prisoners should have the right to speak, can you let him finish his sentence?" Xiangyushan said happily: "It's all girls who understand things. I, Xiangyushan, can swear here that apart from gambling and brothels, I have never participated in the kind of unreasonable things that my two brothers pointed out."

Kou Zhong said: "Then where did the beauties in your casino come from?" Xiang Yushan said: "If there is one of them deliberately kidnapped by my Xiang family and forced to be a prostitute, teach me that Xiang Yushan will die a bad life." The two were taken aback. Xiang Wushan sighed and said: "In fact, we were harmed by that stupid king. Since my gang has always been closely related to the imperial court, some members of the gang are officials in the court. At the beginning, we only searched the world for that stupid king. Beauty, for him to have fun with prostitution. Who knows that this stupid king is greedy and greedy, just for the fun of traveling, so he built a lot of palaces. From Luoyang to Yangzhou alone, there are no less than forty palaces. And each of them has to be served by hundreds of beautiful women , plus his own thousands of concubines and concubines, think about how many people there are, we are also in deep trouble."

How could the two of them know that the Bashan Gang had such difficulties, and their disgust towards Xiangyu Mountain could not help but decrease a bit. Xiang Yushan said sadly: "Yang Guang is both feminine and masculine, it's not a big deal, the most terrible thing is that he has new tricks every day. For example, he wants the feathers of birds and beasts to make his clothes, so anyone who fits the feathers Almost all the birds and beasts used were captured. It is also like when the Turkic Qimin Khan entered the dynasty in the second year of Daye. In order to show off his wealth, Yang Guang ordered to recruit the children of the old dynasty's music families, and they all acted as music households. He recruited more than 30,000 people When people entered the court, officers and soldiers forced us to do things that they couldn’t do, and we were actually victims.”

Jie Qi snorted coldly: "But now the situation is reversed, we no longer need to obey his orders." Kou Zhong frowned and said, "It's long overdue not to listen!" Xiang Yushan said: "But if we don't do it, someone else will do it. The result is the same, but our Baling Gang will definitely be finished immediately." Xu Ziling said, "Why did you come to see us?" Xiang Yushan apologized and said with a smile: "That day my younger brother had eyes but didn't know Mount Tai. It turned out that the two are famous people who have been famous in the world recently. Now, under the order of the second master Xiao Mi, I came here to find the two to study the possibility of cooperation with each other."

Kou Zhong smiled and said: "You are being polite. It turns out that they are here again to seek a treasure that we don't even know where it is." Xu Ziling said, "There's no need to explain. Now the rumors are flying all over the sky, and the false ones have become true. Who would believe that we don't even know where the treasure is." Xiang Yushan said solemnly: "You two are wrong. From the very beginning, Master Xiao Er thought that you didn't know the location of the hidden treasure." The three were in a daze at the same time. Su Su frowned and said: "Then why did you take such a risk to find my two younger brothers?"

Xiang Yushan lowered his voice and said, "Of course it's for the account book!" Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong immediately looked at each other, except for the people from the Li Clan and Yu Wen Clan, who would know that the account books belonged to them? Xiangyushan smiled and said: "Just by looking at the expressions of the two, you can tell that the second leader is right. I, Xiangyushan, am really impressed. Now the whole world is being led by the two." Kou Zhong scanned the people in the small dumpling restaurant vigilantly, and said viciously: "You are here to grab the account book!"

Xiang Yushan hurriedly said: "Little brother, how dare you? Brother Kou and Brother Xu can not only snatch the account books from Yuwen Chengdu, but also avoid the pursuit of Yuwen Clan, and even hurt Yuwen Wudi. Little brother, how dare you offend Huwei? I am indeed a representative We are here to discuss the terms of sincere cooperation." And mysteriously said: "Aren't you two going to bring down Yu Wenhuaji? It just so happens that he is also the number one enemy of our gang." Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were dumbfounded, and it took a long time for the former to let out a breath of cold air and said, "You little brat is well-informed." Xiang Yushan smiled and said: "In recent years, we have opened more than 200 brothels and nearly 300 large and small gambling halls across the country under various names. If we have established a huge investigation network, it will be more difficult to investigate anything. It's easier for others." Xu Ziling said: "But the news about the Yuwen faction, I'm afraid it can't be obtained from places where whoring and gambling!" Xiang Yushan nodded and said, "Of course." Kou Zhong knew that he wouldn't say it, so he said with great interest, "Why are you dealing with Yu Wenhuaji?" Xiang Yushan showed a look of grief and indignation, and said sadly: "Fifteen days ago, Lu Kang, the leader of our gang, was assassinated and killed by the "Shadow Assassin". of." The three of them suddenly realized that it's no wonder that he was the second in command, Xiao Mian. Naturally, this involves complex political power struggles, and Xiangyushan certainly refuses to speak out casually. Xiang Yushan said in a low voice: "Our third leader is a person who leans on the Yuwen Clan. After the incident, he has been dealt with by the second leader according to family law. It is also from his mouth that Yu Wenhua and He Nahun Lord are related to this matter." .” Xu Ziling said: "That Yu Wenhuaji really made a mistake! You should get rid of Guier as well." Xiang Yushan snorted coldly: "Don't they want to? It's just that they don't know the real kung fu of the second master Xiao, which is already higher than the first master, but it is unknown. Although the shadow assassin is powerful, he still can't kill him. The second master pretended to be dead to lure him. The third master has shown his true colors. Otherwise, our gang would have already fallen into the hands of the Yuwen thief and the third master." Su Su wondered: "Who is this shadow assassin?" Xiang Yushan said: "This person's identity is mysterious. It is rumored that he is very young. He seems to be a member of the royal family. He specializes in assassinating people who are not pleasing to the eye. He likes to assassinate the target person when the moon is full. Even Du Fuwei almost wants It's a big loss." The two breathed out a sigh of relief, just because this person had the guts to assassinate Du Fuwei, one can see how powerful it is. Xiang Yushan took out a letter from his pocket, and said: "In order to show that our gang has the sincerity of cooperation, Xiao Er headed a special letter, and made a poisonous oath in the letter, that he would never just use the two of them like others, But after the fact, you will hurt again. The two of you will naturally understand after reading it, but please destroy this letter immediately." Kou Zhong received the letter and opened it to see that it was indeed Xiao Mian who had made a poisonous oath in black and white, and there was also a stamp on it. After handing it to Xu Ziling, Kou Zhong sighed: "Your second master must be a man of great stamina, hey! Now he should be the first master." Xiang Yushan said: "No! He is still the second master, and he will not be willing to take the position of the first master unless the faint king dies." Xu Ziling passed the letter to Suosu, and said in a low voice, "How do you want us to braid it? Should we just hand over the account books to you? This is impossible!" Xiangyushan took back the letter from Susu, crushed it into fine powder, and said with a smile: "Of course not. We will let the two of you personally participate in the matter, and enjoy the fun of turning the faint king and the Yuwen faction against each other. As long as the two Nod, I can immediately arrange two people, hey! The three left here without anyone noticing." He smiled again and said, "Shen Luoyan and the two of you don't get along well!" Su Su was taken aback and said: "It can't be done now, I can only leave after the master comes back." Xiang Yushan didn't ask why, nodded and said: "That's the decision. Whenever you want to leave, just go to the Daiqing Court here and ask Peipei, and someone will naturally connect with you and arrange everything." Then he stood up with a smile, and said happily: "The two of you and I hit it off at first sight, and now we finally have a chance to cooperate." He especially bowed to Susu and said: "I hope to see you again soon." Let's go. The three of you looked at me and were speechless for a while. Although Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling had the account books in hand, they had no idea how to harm Yu Wenhuaji. Now that they have this opportunity, they are naturally happy, but they are worried that things are not as simple as Xiang Yushan said. Xu Ziling saw Su Su's pretty face flushed slightly, thoughtfully, and said in surprise: "Sister Su likes this guy, right?" Susu said angrily, "Stop talking nonsense!" Kou Zhongdao: "This guy is a top flatterer. If he doesn't say a word, it will make people unhappy, and he knows how to accept it as soon as he sees it. He is even better at coaxing girls. Sister Su, don't fall for his tricks." .” Su Su was embarrassed, she stood up and said, "Are you still going shopping?" No matter where the two of them went, someone was watching secretly, which made them worry about Xiangyu Mountain.However, since this person is so powerful that he can find them in this situation, he has his own set of abilities. After returning to Dalongtou's mansion, he said a few words to Tu Shufang, blaming them for not informing him when they went out. The two began to study the account books in detail, and found that the records were mainly about the purchase of weapons from the Dongming faction by the Li clan and the Yuwen clan. It's strange if you don't suspect that they will rebel. After dinner that night, the two gathered in Xu Ziling's room to discuss. Xu Ziling tentatively said, "It looks like I won't be able to go to Luoyang for a while this trip." Kou Zhongxiao: "It doesn't matter if you go late or go early. Those who are destined can get the treasure. After you have the Heshibi, you can go to Chang'an, the capital, to try your luck with Yang Gong's treasure. If you succeed together, then you can recruit troops and buy horses." Let's see who can beat our Yangzhou Ssangyong?" Xu Ziling sighed: "You think too far, and now I am worried about Sister Su. I am most afraid that the Baling Gang will use her to threaten us. Don't look at Xiang Xiaogui who is now smiling when he beats and scolds. Why don't we come out and roam the rivers and lakes?" In the end, how many really nice people do you meet?" Kou Zhong also frowned deeply. Now Susu can be regarded as their only family member, so nothing can teach her to be hurt. Xu Ziling said: "We have no choice but to be careful. After we have avenged our mother, we will take Sister Susu to the south by the way. After she is settled, we will think about developing and making a living." There was a knock on the door, and Susu pushed the door open, and said in fear: "Miss is back, I want to see you immediately." The two groaned in their hearts. What they fear most now is to meet this Miss Zhai, who is so ugly in appearance and temper. Zhai Jiao's face was as black as a mysterious altar, her eyes were shining coldly, one hand was on her waist as thick as a toilet bowl, and the other hand pointed at her halberd and cursed: "I left the mansion for five days, and you turned against me. How dare you sneak outside and come back after wandering around all day. When something happened, how would I explain it to dad. Now that I have reported the matter to dad, he said that no matter what, you are not allowed to leave the house any more. Let's talk about it when he comes back." Kou Zhong thought to himself where I was going, it's none of your business, but of course he didn't dare to say that. He smiled and said: "It's us two slaves who are wrong, please calm down, miss." Zhai Jiao withdrew her thick fingers pointing at the two, and said in a stern voice: "Apart from Su Su, is there anyone else who knows about this?" Kou Zhong didn't change his face, and said in an extremely sure tone: "Of course not." Xu Ziling said: "Since Miss has seen Da Longtou, she should understand that we are not lying!" Zhai Jiao said angrily with a little frustration: "Father didn't say anything, he only said that he would come back as soon as possible. He also ordered this matter to be kept a secret. I have already warned Susu, now it's your turn to warn you two servants." The two of them had long been used to her domineering orders, so they had no choice but to let her scold them. Zhai Jiao lost her temper for a while before she said, "Do you want a woman to accompany you?" The two lost their voices: "What?" Zhai Jiao's tone was a little gentler, and she said in a soft voice: "Father told me, you can choose anyone you like from the group of maids to accompany you at night, and there will be other rewards when he comes back." Kou Zhongben was very moved, but he remembered that if he did this, what would be the difference between himself and Wang Bodang? Xu Ziling flatly refused and said: "Thank you, Da Longtou, for your kindness, but neither of my brothers would accept it." Zhai Jiao said with a sigh of relief: "It's best if you don't, who will accompany you two brats." The two were so angry that they had to keep silent. Zhai Jiao stared at the two of them for a long time before telling them to get out.As if they were granted an amnesty by the emperor, they hurried away.
