Chapter 23 Twenty-third round of applause

April nineteenth, night. Anyone who has been to the left bank of Daming Lake this night will feel very strange, very very strange. Because they saw a boat. It is not a strange thing to see a boat, even if it is seen dozens or hundreds. The strange thing is that the boat they saw was obviously on the water, but suddenly "walked" to the shore. How can a boat go on land? Some people thought that their sanity must have suddenly become a little confused, so they ran home and went to sleep with their heads covered. Some people went back and told their wives, and they were immediately slapped by their wives, saying that he must be outside. Drinking and fooling around with women, and coming back to make up such nonsense to deceive people.

This kind of thing really couldn't have happened. There are also some people who are more courageous and curious, determined to find out. They actually saw a lot of feet under the boat. A boat never produces its own feet, which are, of course, human feet. Of course, this boat did not "walk" up by itself, but was lifted up by many people, many very strong people. Is there something wrong with these people?Why do you have to work so hard to bring a boat out of the lake? There will never be wind on the water. Where does the wind come from? The wind lantern in Xiao Jun's hand had long been extinguished, and it was pitch black outside, and he couldn't see anything, and of course he couldn't see anyone.

Yuan Bao suddenly asked an inexplicable question: "Guess who?" He asked Xiao Jun, "Is it Gao Tianjue? Or Frog Boy?" Xiao Jun couldn't answer this question, he didn't understand what Yuan Bao meant. Yuan Bao explained: "If this boat is still on the water, this empty space must be on the water," he said, "but there will never be wind in the water." "Is this boat out of water?" "Probably gone." Yuan Bao said, "But a boat will never come ashore." "You think someone has brought this boat ashore?" Yuan Bao nodded: "That's why I asked you, do you think it was Gao Tianjue who was lifted, or Frog Boy?"

"Why must it be these two people?" "To lift such a big boat ashore, at least seven or eight people with very good martial arts skills are needed to lift it," Yuan Bao said, "Except for the two of them, who else can order so many experts to do this kind of work?" Nevermind?" This thing is indeed done extremely well. In the eyes of others, even if a person who can do this kind of thing is not crazy, there is something wrong with it. "Why would they do such a thing?" "Because they have figured out that we will definitely hide in this empty cabin." Yuan Bao sighed, "You should also be able to see that Gao Tianjue and Frog Boy are much smarter than others, even if they are a little bit dumber than me. "

No one can deny this point, Gao Tianjue and Frog Boy are undoubtedly geniuses in the world. "The three of us are the ones they want to catch with all their heart, and they want to live." Yuan Bao said, "They also thought that we would probably punch a hole in the bottom of the boat and escape from the water." Yuan Bao said: "Underwater, people are worse than fish. No one can completely control the underwater affairs, and their underwater skills are probably not very good." Xiao Jun also thought of this. The old leader of the beggar gang has been swimming in Taihu Lake, taking a boat as his home, and Xiao Jun has been following him.

His underwater skills will never be inferior to his land skills. Everyone in the rivers and lakes knew this, so no one wanted to fight him in the water. "But it's different on land," Yuan Bao said. "Of course they all knew that Guo Mie was injured. When they arrived on land, they didn't pay attention to the two of us at all." Yuan Bao said: "It's not very difficult for them to lift a boat from the water to the shore. Difficult things, don't waste their own effort." He sighed: "So whether it's Gao Tianjue or Frog Boy, for the sake of safety, they will definitely do this." Yuan Bao said: "I will do the same."

But finally there was a sound, the sound of applause. Yuan Bao smiled and bowed, like a famous actor receiving applause from an enthusiastic audience after performing his masterpiece. Then he said in a very pleasant voice: "It's really not easy for Mr. Tian to admire me. If there is wine here, I must drink three glasses first." The applause stopped, and someone outside was asking, "How do you know it's me?" Yuan Bao's answer was extremely simple: "Because Gao Tian would never applaud." ——How can a person with only one hand applaud? Someone outside is laughing, laughing!

The laughter was indeed the voice of Frog Boy, but he didn't come in. It was still dark outside the big hole on the board of the boat. There were fields, but there were no chickens, no people, and no people. So Yuan Bao couldn't help but ask again: "Mr. Tian," he asked Frog Boy, "Is it you who want to come in? Or do you want me to go out." "Do you think I'll let you out?" "You won't," Yuan Bao sighed, "I only hope that when you come in, you bring something with you." "What do you want me to bring?" "What do you think?"

"Would you like to bring some wine?" Frog Boy said, "Also, bring some wine." "not good." "Not good!" Frog Boy sounded surprised: "Why not?" "Because you are too stingy," Yuan Bao said, "If you want to bring wine, don't bring it bit by bit. What I can't bear in my life is a little bit of wine, a little bit of food, and a little bit of people." "What does a little man mean?" "If when you came in, not all of them came in, but only a little bit." Yuan Bao said, "For example, if you only brought in a little bit of hands and a little bit of feet and left the rest outside, do you think I can bear it?" Got it?"

Frog Boy laughed loudly: "I promise that I will go in all of them, and I will bring in all my property and buy wine." "How much is your total property now?" Yuan Bao sighed, "I know that your property has never been too much." "But it's different now," Frog Boy said, "I promise you will be shocked when you see it." lamp.Bright lights. One, two, three, four, five... A long row of bright lights. This was the first thing Yuan Bao saw. Then he saw the woman with the lantern. Beautiful woman in embroidered silk with updo on her arm.

Yuan Bao's eyes widened. Because each of the women carrying the lanterns is as bright as a bright moon, beautiful and unremarkable. The eight beauties swayed their waists outside the cave, bent over, and then filed into the cabin. They were arranged in two rows, with four standing in each row, standing motionless. A crisp and clear voice suddenly came from a distance: "The daughter of twenty years is red!" Four women with the same attire and the same beauty, two in front and two behind, are carrying two bamboo poles, a piece of leopard skin is tied in the center of the bamboo pole, and a jar of wine is placed in the center of the leopard skin. They walked into the cabin, smiled at Yuan Bao, and gently put down the wine jar. The crisp and clear voice came from a distance again: "Kweichow Moutai 20 years ago!" The four women put Maotai in front of Yuanbao with the same movement. Then there are lotus white, bamboo leaf green, Persian wine... Then suddenly it wasn't a beautiful woman who came in, but a big man with a naked upper body. Without saying a word, the big man took measurements at the side of the broken boat hole, and then he suddenly raised his palm, cutting the original hole into a square like peeling tofu. The big man stood in the middle of the cabin and stretched out his hands up and down while biking at the entrance of the cave. Yuan Bao and the others looked at the big man curiously, and were about to ask a question, when suddenly there was a "whoosh", and the sound of something breaking through the air came from outside. The big man galloped steadily, and the sound of "whoosh" fell on his hands. He already had a dark and shiny wooden table in his hands. He placed the wooden table in the middle of the cabin and exited. The crisp and clear voice came from a distance again: "Pearl balls!" Yuan Bao frowned and said: "Pearl balls are also a famous dish?" Yuan Bao was about to laugh, but suddenly closed his mouth, staring at the central wooden table in surprise. On the wooden table was a cage of freshly brought pearl balls, steaming hot and still steaming. When Xiao Jun looked at this dish, the expression on his face was definitely more surprised than that of Yuan Bao, and the expressions of other people were not much different. Because this is really a veritable "pearl" ball, each round ball has a pearl with a diameter of nearly one inch embedded in it. Bright white round pearls! Yuan Bao was really taken aback! "You should believe my words now!" Frog Boy's voice suddenly came from outside the cave. Then, it was his triumphant laughter. Yuan Bao sighed: "Unexpectedly, there will be a time when chickens grow up!" "Chicken will grow up," Frog said cheerfully, "Haven't you seen that the comb of a rooster is very beautiful?" "You are a rooster that can lay eggs!" Yuan Bao said, "Not only do you do things beautifully, but you can also turn them into money." "Yes, that's right!" Frog Boy doesn't seem to have changed much, he still looks lazy, and he still doesn't want to walk when he can sit. It's just that now he's not sitting on the chair with wooden wheels, and he doesn't need to push it with his hands. He was carried in, sitting comfortably on a woven gold soft couch, and carried in by four tall, healthy and beautiful girls, each of whom had a pair of slender and strong legs. Yuan Bao actually recognized one of them, the one with the strongest and most beautiful legs. Of course he will not forget this girl. Although he is not affectionate, he will not be ungrateful. This girl had tried desperately to save him, and of course she would never forget him. But now when she saw him, it was as if she didn't see him. So Yuan Bao can only pretend that he has never seen her, no matter why she does not want to go to the rivers and lakes to perform freely, and no matter why she pretends not to know Yuan Bao, Yuan Bao does not want to reveal her secret. The empty cabin is no longer empty, and the frog boy is no longer the frog boy he used to be. Yuan Bao looked at him up and down for a long time before asking him: "Did you just say that what I said was absolutely right?" "seems like it." "Actually, it's not right, it's not right at all." Yuan Bao said, "Actually, what I just said is completely farting." "Fart?" Frog Boy smiled: "Your mouth can fart?" "Not only will it be released, but it will also smell extremely bad." "Oh." "A rooster will never lay eggs, whether it's a big rooster or a small chicken, they can't lay eggs either." Yuan Bao said, "Money won't come out by itself." "Oh!" "Mr. Tian has always been famous for disciplining his son. Even if he had money, he wouldn't give it to you." Yuan Bao said, "Even if he gave you a little, he wouldn't let you mess around like this." Frog Boy sighed: "To be honest, the monthly allowance I get every month is less than that of the old woman selling flowers at the gate of Dasanyuan." "Then how did you become so rich all of a sudden?" "What do you think?" "If I can't guess it, you will think I'm a fool." Yuan Bao said, "If I guess it, you won't admit it." "Then maybe!" Frog Boy said, "If you can really guess it, maybe I will admit it." "You really want me to say it?" Frog Boy sighed: "Now I don't want you to say it, I'm afraid I can't do it." Yuan Bao laughed. "You are really smart, almost as smart as I am. I must offer you a few drinks first." He actually asked Frog Boy like a hospitable host: "What do you want to drink? It's my twenty-year-old daughter." Red? Or green bamboo leaves? You can drink whatever you want, don’t be polite.” Frog Boy smiled: "Is the master you or me?" Yuan Bao's answer was just like the weird things he usually said, and it made people feel very surprised. "Neither." Yuan Bao said, "The master is neither you nor me." "Then who do you think the owner is?" "It's General Li." Yuan Bao said solemnly, "Three smiles scare General Li." Frog Boy stared at him for a long time before saying, "Why is the master General Li?" Yuan Bao didn't answer this question, but said slowly: "General Li came and went without a trace. No one in Jianghu has seen her true face, and no one knows her whereabouts." Yuan Bao said, "But within this month, suddenly everyone knows." He asked Frog Boy, "Do you want to understand why this is?" Frog Boy didn't answer, but instead asked, "Have you already figured it out?" "In fact, everyone can understand this truth," Yuan Bao said, "Anyone who is ten times stupider than me should be able to understand it." Yuan Bao told Frog Boy seriously: "Suddenly so many people in Jianghu knew the news about General Li, just because someone deliberately leaked the news." This truth should be understood by everyone, but very few people think so. Because there is a big key to this, no one can figure it out! ——Who is this person who leaked the news?How could he know the whereabouts of General Li?Why tell others such important news? Yuan Bao first explained the last question: "He leaked this news on purpose, so that General Li's opponents would come to Jinan, and everyone would fight in a scuffle, so that he could fish in troubled waters." Yuan Bao said, "If everyone dies, then of course it's time to fight again." No good." "That makes sense." Tian Jizai smiled, "What you said seems somewhat reasonable." He asked Yuan Bao, "But how did this person know that General Li was in Jinan? Why didn't anyone else know? Only he knew?" "In fact, he may not know." "What is this nonsense?" "The meaning of this sentence is that, in fact, he is not sure that Boss Sun is General Li." Yuan Bao said: "So he has been waiting for more than ten years without daring to move." "Oh." "Not only has he stayed in Jinan for a long time, but he is also one of the best heroes in Jinan City, and his every move on the ground can never be hidden from his eyes and ears." "Oh?" "Recently, he suddenly found that something was wrong on the ground," Yuan Bao said, "Many strange strangers suddenly appeared in the city, and some new faces were suddenly discovered among the guards under Qiu Budao. It seemed to pop up out of nowhere." Yuan Bao sighed: "Of course I can't hide these things from him." Frog Boy also agrees: "I don't think it's possible to hide it." "So he immediately found out that someone was already planning to move Boss Sun." "Very likely." "Seeing those strangers who have never appeared in the Jianghu, he may immediately think that they are all killers that Gao Tianjue has secretly trained secretly in recent years." "That makes sense," Frog Boy said, "Boss Sun must have thought of this himself." "Anyone knows that Gao Tianjue is very difficult to deal with, and of course this person knows it too." Frog Boy sighed: "The heavens and the earth will be destroyed. Kill them all. Those who fall into their hands will not only have no way of life, but they will also wipe off all the money they have earned." Yuan Bao also sighed. "It costs a lot of money to maintain an organization like this." "I see." "But the person I'm talking about has spent so many years on Boss Sun, so of course he's not willing to just watch Gao Tianjue snatch him away like this." "If it were me, I would not be reconciled." "But he's not sure he can beat Gao Tianjue." Frog Boy sighed again: "If it was me, I'm not sure." "So he simply brought everyone to Jinan, and let everyone fight upside down." Yuan Bao said: "When everyone is exhausted from fighting, dead and wounded, he can come out to pick up bargains." Frog Boy smiled: "The man you're talking about sounds like a smart man, and very smart." "He is indeed. Such a smart person is rare even for me." "How do you think he compares to you?" "Of course he's worse than me," Yuan Bao suddenly asked Frog Boy, "How do you think he compares to you?" "He can't compare with me." "why?" "Because I am him and he is me." Speaking of this, everyone has already guessed who Yuan Bao is talking about. But when this sentence came out of Frog Boy's own mouth, everyone would inevitably be surprised. Yuan Bao sighed again: "Why do you have to say it yourself? It's not fun to say it yourself." "What do you want from me?" Frog Boy smiled: "Don't you think it's fun until you put a knife on my neck and force me to speak out?" "That's not fun either." Yuan Bao said, "Actually, I didn't think it was fun from the very beginning." "why?" "Because too many people died." Yuan Bao said, "The worst part is that some people who shouldn't die also died." "Oh?" "Niu Sanbao has been staying on the coast of the East China Sea in recent years. He must have seen me, so he wants to catch me and use me to threaten my family and help them deal with General Li." "So they all died." Frog Boy said, "I don't think they died unjustly." He also said: "Qiu Budao died unjustly, and Gao Tianjue's people died even less unjustly." Yuan Bao suddenly interrupted him, and suddenly asked him in a very serious manner: "Where is Liu Jinniang? Did Liu Jinniang die unjustly?" Frog Boy suddenly shut his mouth and stopped talking. "Of course you have an insider at Boss Sun's house, and your insider is Liu Jinniang." Yuan Bao said, "She comes from a deep palace and is well-informed, and she knows more about Boss Sun's body and bone structure than anyone else. The big boss is not an ordinary businessman, but a master of internal affairs with unique skills, this point can never be fooled by her." Frog Boy still kept his mouth shut. Yuan Bao said again: "She is also a person, and she is a lonely woman. When she meets a man like you, of course she has no choice but to surrender." Boss Sun has too much money and too many things, so he can't control the private life of some people around him too much. If a man always thinks that as long as he waves, a woman will stay with him for the rest of his life and wait for him to wave again, then this man will inevitably encounter some unpleasant things. "I think you must have been in secret with Liu Jinniang for a long time," Yuan Bao said to Frog Boy, "Although Mr. Tian seems to be indifferent on the surface, in fact he can't hide anything from him." Yuan Bao sighed: "He didn't object to your dating, because if the son is a little flirtatious, the fathers usually don't object, and even the mothers don't object. Parents usually only object to their making friends outside," Yuan Bao said. Said: "Because Mr. Tian knew the relationship between you and Liu Jinniang, so he didn't believe that she would die of love, so he took the initiative to investigate this matter." "It makes sense," Frog Boy smiled wryly, "Why is there always some fucking truth in what you say." "The people who are involved in this matter are almost dead by now." Yuan Bao said: "Of course many of the big and small stewards in Sun Ji's firm are your brothers. If you can kill the thief General Li, all these business transactions will naturally become yours." "rational." "Even if it is unreasonable, it will become reasonable." Yuan Bao said: "General Li's property is stolen goods. If you killed General Li, who would dare to pursue the whereabouts of these stolen goods? People dare to touch Citigate." Yuan Bao said: "At that time, the heroes of the world would definitely give their thumbs up and say, Young Master Tian is really amazing." Frog Boy laughed loudly: "In fact, as long as you say such a sentence, it is enough." "Where is Xiao Jun?" "Master Xiao is of course one of the biggest contributors to killing General Li." Frog Boy said with a smile, "But since he took charge of the Beggar Sect's execution hall, of course he doesn't pay attention to these extraneous money." "Where's Gao Tianjue?" Yuan Bao asked again, "Aren't you afraid of Gao Tianjue?" "At first, I was afraid, terribly afraid," Frog Boy said, "Fortunately, someone has solved this matter for me now." "Who?" "Mrs. Yindian, Silent Thunderbolt, and your big boss Tang," Frog Boy sighed intentionally, "They didn't suffer from both losses, but from four defeats and four injuries. Although the injuries were not serious, they were not too light." Yuan Bao's expression changed. Frog Boy smiled more happily: "But you don't have to worry at all, because we are friends, and for your sake, I will never be rude to them." "What are you going to do to us!" "I'm going to spend 9,000 taels of silver to prepare two of the best horses and a best car for you, and send you back to the coast of the East China Sea." Frog Boy's attitude suddenly became very sincere: "You have already left home It's been a long time, the old man must have been worried." His attitude is not only sincere, but also serious: "And I also know that you won't do anything to me, because what I did was not a bad thing. I just caught a big thief. Everyone knows that Skynet is restored, and I will never blush. .” Yuan Bao smiled wryly: "Even if someone calls you a hero in the future, I don't think you will blush." Frog Boy's face did not turn red as expected: "One day you will also become a hero. At that time, Hall Master Xiao must have been appointed as the leader of the Beggars' Clan. The three of us will take care of each other, and the world will be dominated by us." The more he talked, the happier he was, he couldn't even close his mouth when he laughed. Yuan Bao also laughed with him, very happily. "So now you two should help me and let me take this General Li away." Frog Boy said, "I will never forget your benefits in my life." "You must take General Li away?" "good." "Then you can go." Yuan Bao suddenly stopped smiling, and sighed, "It's just that this journey is very long, and once you go, you will never come back." "What road are you talking about?" "Of course it's the Huangquan road where there is no return." "Huangquan Road?" Frog Boy asked, "Why should I go to Huangquan Road?" "Because General Li passed away a long time ago." Yuan Bao said, "If you want to find him, how can you find him if you don't go to Huangquan Road?" Frog Boy changed color slightly, stared at Yuan Bao for a long time, and smiled again: "Although General Li was slightly injured, I guarantee that he won't die for a while." "And what about his people?" "It's right there." "Where is it?" Yuan Bao asked Frog Boy, "Why can't I see?" His eyes rolled, and finally settled on Guo Mie: "Could it be him you're talking about?" "Who else but him?" "Don't you think he is General Li, the three-smile frightened man?" "Isn't he?" Yuan Bao suddenly laughed out loud, bending his waist so much that he couldn't even breathe, as if he had never heard such a funny thing in his life. "If he is General Li, then I must be Chu Xiangshuai." He pointed to his nose: "Do you think I look like Chu Xiangshuai?" Frog Boy could still hold his breath, and waited until Yuan Bao finished laughing before asking, "Isn't he General Li?" "of course not." "Then who is he?" Guo Mie has been sitting there with an admiring smile on his face, watching them as if watching a play, until then he said: "My surname is Guo, and my name is Guo Mie." Frog Boy was stunned!The expression on his face was the same as when Yuan Bao heard the name for the first time. No matter who hears this kind of thing suddenly, they will become like this. But Frog Boy was a bit different from other people after all, and a smile appeared on his face soon. "Unexpected, really unexpected." He said with a smile: "Guo Daxia, who has not appeared in Jianghu for more than ten years, unexpectedly appeared here again. This is really a great joy!" "You don't believe it?" Yuan Bao asked for Guo Mie. "When the heavens and the earth were destroyed, I seemed to be still wearing crotch pants. When I wanted to pee, I always peed on my legs and feet. How could I see the true colors of the heroes of the world?" Frog said, "Since I have never seen Knowing the true face of Guo Daxia, how dare you not believe that this friend is Guo Daxia." He sighed: "I just feel that something is not right." "What's wrong?" "Madam Gao and Hero Guo reunited after a long absence. They should have been overjoyed," Tian Jizai said. , you are smarter than me, can you tell me what's going on?" Yuan Bao can't tell him, this is a secret between husband and wife, father and son, how can he tell others.Guo Mie said dejectedly: "Because I not only harmed her all her life, but also made her crippled for life, and the 'Heaven and Earth' that she painstakingly organized also collapsed because of me. If she wants to kill me, no matter what method she should use, I don't blame her at all." Frog Boy looked at him in surprise for a long time: "Why did you do such a thing?" Guo Mie was also silent for a long time before answering word by word: "For General Li." Frog Boy was even more surprised. "You said that your husband and wife turned against each other for the sake of General Li, that's why you cut off one of her hands, and she wanted to kill you?" "That's roughly how it goes." Frog Boy laughed again: "I don't believe it, and I don't understand it either. The story you told is really not good." Of course Frog Boy didn't understand, because he didn't know the relationship between the three of them at all. Yuan Bao already understood. ——When Guo Mie and General Li met, Gao Tianjue followed, jealousy and hatred intermingled, and the sisters became enemies. Under such circumstances, it was inevitable that they would fight. ——General Li's martial arts might have been a little worse than Gao Tianjue's in the first place, and maybe because he felt a little uncomfortable and ashamed, he almost died at the hands of her sister. Of course Guo Mie couldn't let her die, maybe he helped her with a move, maybe he supported her with a move.In the fight between masters, they couldn't even make a move, so Gao Tianjue had one arm cut off. Yuan Bao believed that this must be the case. Although this is only a general situation, of course he does not know the details. He didn't want to know either. The details of this part are completely kept secret by others. If others don't tell them, he will never ask. At most, he just felt a little curious. ——Why did General Li go away alone to raise their son alone?As a result, he died of hatred. ——Why did Guo Mie go to Jinan City alone to become the billionaire Sun Jicheng? Of course there is something hidden in it, and of course Frog Boy doesn't know it. "No matter whether the story you tell is good or not, it is not easy for someone who can make up such a story. I really admire you." Frog Boy smiled again: "So as long as there is one person who can prove that you are really It’s Guo Mie, and I believe the story you told.” He looked at Yuan Bao: "Of course you can't prove it. No matter what you say now, I'm afraid I won't believe it." Xiao Jun seems to have arrived far away a long time ago, in a dilapidated hut in the distance, beside a dilapidated wooden bed, accompanied by a woman who coughed all day long, watching her slowly grow out of regret in poverty, weakness, loneliness and sorrow and die. She never told him, who is his father?But she never complained about his father. What she regrets is herself, and what she hates is also herself. Xiao Jun turned around slowly, facing Frog Boy, his pale face seemed to be flushed again. Frog Boy has never been afraid of being looked at by others. If others want to look at him, it not only proves that he is a famous person, but also very good-looking, so no matter who looks at him, he will feel very happy. But now he is not happy at all, because he has found that there seems to be an indescribable hatred in Xiao Jun's eyes, and suddenly asked him coldly: "Can I prove it?" "You?" Frog Boy smiled forcedly: "What do you want to prove? Can you prove that he is telling the truth?" "I can not." Frog Boy laughed, but not for long, because Xiao Jun had already said: "I can't prove anything, and I don't need to prove anything." Xiao Jun said coldly: "Because I will never let you leave here alive." "Are you going to kill me?" Frog Boy was really taken aback: "We have never had any grievances, and we have always been good friends. If something happens to you, I will always stand by your side. You come to me. I always help you, and now you want to kill me?" Of course he couldn't figure out the reason, he just sighed: "Can you tell me, what exactly did I offend you?" "you have not." "Then why are you?" "I don't why." "Why didn't you kill me?" Frog Boy was even more surprised: "Did you suddenly get poisoned by this person? Did you suddenly go crazy?" Xiao Jun didn't answer this question, but someone outside suddenly answered for him. "He's not crazy." A very peaceful voice said: "It's just that there are some things you don't know yet, and he can't tell them."
