Chapter 64 Chapter 2 Victory lies in virtue, not talent

This day has come.Wu Song is here. Wu Song politely invited He Jiushu to the hotel.When he arrived at the hotel, Wu Song only cared about drinking and didn't say a word. Uncle He Jiu was mentally prepared for Wu Song to ask.Seeing Wu Song not making a sound now, he was nervous and sweating.Instead, he took the initiative to tease Wu Song with some words. Wu Song still didn't speak, just eating wine.Say nothing. Such silence is horrifying. After several glasses of wine, Wu Song suddenly lifted his clothes, swished out a sharp knife and stuck it on the table. The drinker was stunned, and He Jiushu was also stunned, his face was pale and he didn't dare to breathe out.

He Jiushu knew that Wu Song would come to him and ask him.He was also ready to deal with Wu Song, but he never expected that the first thing Wu Song showed was a knife. Wu Song knows how to interrogate. Not opening your mouth at the beginning is to create a tense atmosphere and cause huge psychological pressure on the other party. When the other party was flustered, he suddenly pulled out the knife, giving the other party a huge shock. Wu Song rolled up his sleeves, pointed at He Jiushu with a knife, and said: "You are careless, and you know that 'everyone has his own head, and each debt has his own owner'! Don't be afraid, just tell the truth! Tell me you know the reason for your brother's death, and I won't interfere You! If I hurt you, I am not a good man! If there is a half sentence wrong, I will teach you to make three or four hundred transparent holes in your body with this knife! Gossip, you just say that my brother’s dead body is What does it look like!"

At this point, Uncle He finally felt at ease.He also came prepared.He took out a bag from his sleeve, put it on the table, and said, "Don't be angry. This bag is a big testimony." What's in the bag, we should be able to guess.Sure enough, in Uncle He's bag, there were two pieces of crispy black bones, an ingot of ten taels of silver, and a piece of paper with the date of cremation and the name of the mourner on site. The three pieces of silver in this package show He Jiushu's delicacy (paper) and non-greediness (silver). As expected, He Jiushu was not greedy. Only by not being greedy can he save his life.

Where there is an advantage, there is a way out. And Wang Po, it was because of greed that she put herself in a situation where she must die. If there is a shortcoming, there may be an extra dead end. Wang Po and He Jiu are fine people.But in the end He Jiu won. Victory lies in virtue rather than talent.
