Chapter 255 Punishment of Three Swords 1
Chapter 255: Three Swords 1
After returning to Jinzi Village, the two of them walked into the "Guangcai Teahouse" after parking. Zhang Haotian stopped when he arrived on the third floor. This is the gambling hall. It was closed some time ago. It was time to reopen. He had already found a familiar dealer and was decorating it. Now he must go and check it out and then set the opening date.
Xiaowei did not follow him anymore, but was about to go back to her bedroom on the fifth floor. Zhang Haotian turned around and separated from her. He was about to walk into the hall, but Xiaowei called behind her: "Brother Wolf."
Zhang Haotian heard her tone look strange, immediately turned around and looked at her and said, "Xiaowei, what else do you have?"
Xiaowei looked at him for a while before smiling slightly, "Brother Wolf, thank you."
When Zhang Haotian heard this, he was stunned and said, "Xiaowei, what do you thank me for?"
Xiaowei suddenly showed a very happy expression and said, "Thank you for giving me a wonderful memory of the night, Brother Wolf, I said, I just hope to be your bride for the night, you can treat me wholeheartedly, and you did it. Of course, I should thank you. From now on, I will still be your "fire phoenix". However, if you need a woman, don't go outside to find a lady, I will be by your side."
Looking at Xiaowei with a happy face, Zhang Haotian did not speak immediately because he knew deeply what was hidden under the happy appearance of this woman. However, at this time, he could not make this woman truly happy because he could not say: "Xiaowei, I really love you, let us be together forever." He must confirm and abide by his promise, otherwise, he will not be fair to himself and Xiaowei.
Xiaowei did not ask him to answer, but waved to him like a little girl, and said, "By bye." Then she went upstairs and went back to the bedroom.
Zhang Haotian watched her back, and when he thought of the joy last night, his heart suddenly felt heavy. This was the first time he had experienced in his life, and he really didn't know how to solve it.
However, Zhang Haotian was still a career-oriented man. After sighing inwardly, his heart became harder again. Under the current circumstances, he would try to avoid thinking about emotions, including Shangguan Yumei and Xia Ling'er. On countless nights, he thought about them and missed them. However, he had to control himself and rarely even called because he understood that there was an impulsive side of his personality. Once he became affectionate with two beloved women, he might return to City C without hesitation, but that would only bring them danger and would definitely be irrational.
Shangguan Yumei and Xia Ling'er seemed to feel his "indifference", but the two of them were like they were angry, without complaining or even asking anything. They just told him to pay attention to their health, they could make fewer calls and shorter calls, but every other month, they had to hear his voice, otherwise they would come to G Province to find him.
...
A week later, the casino on the third floor reopened. Since the underground casino of the Sanlian Gang was seized, his business was pretty good. Shi Shizhu, the new security brigade leader of Jinzi Village, did not come to cause trouble for the time being, and it was a calm scene.
Zhang Haotian knew that in such a calm and peaceful situation, huge waves could be raised at any time. If he didn't believe that the Sanlian Gang would be honest, no longer fighting for the territory, it would be difficult to guarantee that there would be no new conspiracy and not be able to understand the enemy's dynamics. That was the most terrible thing.
However, there is one thing he has to do.
No matter what, it was a serious mistake to obey the order to attack Jinzi Village at the beginning. There were laws and regulations in the state. He promised that Gu Fangzhong and others would give an explanation to the leader, and he would never go back on his word.
On that morning, Zhang Haotian called Xiaowei to the office of the teahouse and said that he wanted to go to Gu Fangzhong to do business, and there might be delays. He handed over the matter of Jinzi Village to her, asking Xiaowei to be more careful and notify Zhu Er and the others if there is anything, and they will receive reinforcements soon.
A woman's heart is really very sensitive. If it were in the past, Xiaowei would never ask Zhang Haotian where to do what she did. However, when she heard that Zhang Haotian was going to Gu Fangzhong, she immediately asked the reason. Of course, Zhang Haotian would not tell her the truth, but only said that she would ask Gu Fangzhong for some things in person.
He went downstairs and drove Buick. After forty minutes, he arrived at the courtyard behind the "Wansheng Teahouse". Zhang Haotian parked the car and walked towards the crescent gate. He had called Gu Fangzhong last night and said he was coming in the morning. Gu Fangzhong agreed to wait.
Two young members of the Wanhong Gang stood outside the Crescent Gate, who were directly under Gu Fangzhong, and had always been a little arrogant, but when he saw Zhang Haotian coming, he greeted him with a smile and almost at the same time. You know, other uncles of Jiujiang can be ignored. The name of this wolf can be said to be at its peak in the northern suburbs recently. Who doesn’t know the people on the Tao? With this person’s ability and age, and the right sage Xie Yucai personally presided over the entry, the future is unlimited, and when will he not meet him be even more suitable?
Zhang Haotian had no airs. He smiled and said hello and went in. He walked through the courtyard and arrived outside the living room. He saw four more young men standing. He recognized the leader named Le Qianli, a bronze seal master and Gu Fangzhong's confidant. He was among the two personal bodyguards that Gu Fangzhong brought to Shuangjing Village last time. He walked to Le Qianli and asked him to inform Gu Fangzhong that he was here.
Zhang Haotian can now be said to be the number one strong general under Gu Fangzhong. Le Qianli did not dare to neglect him. He repeatedly asked him to wait outside, and then hurriedly ran into the reception hall.
After a while, Le Qianli trotted out and said that Uncle Gu invited him in.
Zhang Haotian immediately stepped forward and entered the big red door. He looked up at Gu Fangzhong sitting on the top seat, holding a cup of tea in his hand, slowly tasting it, but there was no one else around him.
Walking to a place three meters away from Gu Fangzhong, Zhang Haotian bowed to him and said, "Greetings to Mr. Gu."
There was no fight during this period, and Gu Fangzhong seemed to be very happy. When he saw Zhang Haotian greeting him, he put down the teacup and pointed to the first seat on the left and said, "Alang, don't be so polite. Go and sit down. What's the matter with me?"
Zhang Haotian did not take the seat, but looked at him and said, "Uncle Gu, you forgot that I once told you that if you do not attack Jinzi Village without your order, you will give me an explanation to Mr. Longtou."
Upon hearing this, Gu Fangzhong nodded and said, "Alang, this is very good. Although you didn't attack Jinzi Village, you have avoided the disaster for our Wanhong Gang and made contributions to the Shuangjing Village, you have violated the gang rules after all. Although the Longtou Master did not order you to punish you, I believe he will think about this matter after you have firmly grasped Jinzi Village. If you can raise it on your own initiative, the crime will be reduced."
Speaking of this, he picked up the teacup and took a sip, thought for a while and said, "Let me do this, I'll have an idea. You go to the temple next to you, face the wall and think about it for two days, and then I will report to Mr. Longtou that you have received the punishment and expose this matter. But you must remember the lesson. I can only give you this kind of thing once. If you do it again, Mr. Longtou loves you as a talent, but he is in charge of the rules, he can only kill Ma Su with tears."
Zhang Haotian heard Jie Jiafa say that Gu Fangzhong was a person around Longtou, so he could skip the Huan Hou Mi Mingzhen who was in charge of northern affairs and talk directly with Longtou. The solution he came up with might not be discussed with Longtou. After all, he is the best among the new members of the Wanhong Gang, and he has made great contributions in the matter of Jinzi Village. He just needs to barely explain it.
However, before coming, Zhang Haotian had already made a decision. He smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Gu, I have recognized your kindness, but I will end the mistake I made. In addition to my brothers, please inform the brothers above Iron Seal from the Northern Suburbs to open the incense altar in the afternoon, and I will take the help of the law."
Gu Fangzhong didn't know what he was going to do, but according to the rules of the Wanhong Gang, if a leader in the gang seriously violated the gang rules, he would indeed recruit leaders from the headquarters to open the incense hall to execute the execution. After looking at Zhang Haotian for a while, he nodded and said, "Okay, Alang, since you insist, I will follow the rules. Whether you can convince your brothers is up to you."
As he spoke, Le Qianli from outside came out and asked him to notify his uncles above the Iron Seal of the Ministry to come to the Ancestor Hall to open the incense altar at 3 pm, but there was no need to notify Zhu Er, Wang Bin, and others under Zhang Haotian.
After giving these instructions, Gu Fangzhong asked Zhang Haotian to sit down and asked him about the current situation in the Jinzi Village area. Zhang Haotian also sat down and answered him in detail.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, all the leaders of Gu Fang's central army, except for those who were unable to get out of their way, had arrived. There were a total of 123 people, and they were lined up in four rows, two rows on the left and right. They stood in the Ancestor Hall, and Gu Fangzhong led them to sing incense to the Ancestor's Spirit Card.
After everything was done, Gu Fangzhong sat on the chair on the left side of the incense pot. One of the chairs in the middle was still empty, which was a vacant position for the Longtou Master.
At this time, Gu Fangzhong looked around and said in a deep voice: "Today, I notify you to come to the Ancestor Hall because not long ago, in our northern suburbs, a Jiujiang man actually violated the order of the Longtou master and committed the gang rules. Now this Jiujiang man already knows that he is wrong, so he is willing to be punished in front of the spiritual cards of the ancestors. If he is discouraged by himself, everyone can raise objections."
Speaking of this, he shouted loudly: "Take Alang."
As he shouted, he saw a tall, tough, mighty and handsome man slowly walking in outside the hall with long hair, which was Zhang Haotian.
Everyone has heard of Zhang Haotian's courage to disobey the order of Longtou's attack on Jinzi Village and take the initiative to capture Shuangjing Village without authorization. In fact, everyone wants to know what kind of punishment the Longtou's punishment would be given to this disobedient Alang.
You should know that the Wanhong Gang's gang rules are extremely strict. In recent dozens of times, there are few news about the leader's violation of the orders of the leader.
At this moment, Zhang Haotian slowly walked to the ancestor's spirit card, first offered nine incense sticks, and then sweared three and a half incense sticks to the empty position of the Dragon Head Master with his hand, and finally bowed to Gu Fangzhong.
Seeing that he was neither humble nor arrogant, and had a steady temperament, Gu Fangzhong secretly praised him and wanted to expose the matter as soon as possible, so he said, "Alang, you have made contributions to the capture of Shuangjing Village, and Jinzi Village was finally obtained by our Wanhong Gang. Your ideas at the beginning were not unreasonable, but the rules of the gang cannot be violated. You have made great contributions. Not obeying the order of the Longtou Master is a serious crime. Now, what do you have to say? However, if your self-punishment can convince the brothers, I will report to Longtou Master and see what he wants."
He said these words, in fact, to help Zhang Haotian, let his subordinates know that although Alang violated the rules of the gang, he achieved a satisfactory effect. It was different from ordinary people who violated the law. If Alang was lighter in self-punishment, someone would have objections. In that case, it would be difficult to do. However, I believe these people would not offend Alang, who was in the limelight.
At this time, Zhang Haotian glanced at more than a hundred old men on both sides, said nothing, and suddenly took off his coat and quickly became naked.
Everyone saw clearly that the wolf, whose strong chest and abdomen were stained with blood, green and cold light, and whose sharp teeth were roaring towards the sky, could not help but feel a trembling heart.
At this moment, Zhang Haotian suddenly fell to his knees in front of the ancestor's spirit card, and then said, "I want to ask the magic weapon to take the ordination."
Gu Fangzhong was also looking at the hideous blood wolf on Zhang Haotian's chest and abdomen. He felt more and more that his subordinate was not simple. He listened to his words and nodded, "Okay, then I'll ask for a baguette and hit the thirty heavy sticks on his back."
However, Zhang Haotian shook his head and said, "No, I want to ask for three swords."
As soon as Zhang Haotian said this, even Gu Fangzhong was stunned.
It turns out that among the punishments of the Wanhong Gang, there are three types of magic weapons that allow the gang members to receive the precepts.
The lightest one is the law, made of yellow jing strips. Although it is small, it is a blood mark at a time when you suck it on your body, which is extremely painful.
The heavier one is the baguette, which is divided into back strike and hip strike. If you continue to blame it, it will often cause skin and flesh to break out, hurt your tendons and bones. Those with thin bodies will almost be unable to bear it. If you only have more than ten sticks, you will be beaten to death.
Among the three kinds of magic weapons, the most powerful one is the magic knife, which is a pure steel willow-leaf sharp knife. The so-called three swords and six holes, and dies under the random sword, refers to this magic knife. It is only when the gang members violate the most serious crime.
After a while of silence, Gu Fangzhong stared at Zhang Haotian and said, "Alang, are you sure you are asking for three swords instead of quitting the stick?"
Zhang Haotian nodded without hesitation, with a strong face and said firmly: "Article 25 of the Wanhongmen Gang Rules, the gang members must obey the orders of the leader. If there is any resistance order, causing damage to the gang or the brothers will be killed or injured, I will die under ten thousand swords. Although I did not let the gang suffer damage, nor did my brothers suffer much death or injury, but I am wrong. I am willing to ask for three swords to take the precepts as a warning."
After a while, Gu Fangzhong nodded slowly and said in a deep voice: "What a wolf, he is bloody. It turns out that he is a man. I will fulfill you."
After saying this, he shouted loudly: "Deacon, take three swords."
Following Gu Fangzhong's words, after a while, he saw a middle-aged man wearing red clothes walking up with a wooden case. The middle-aged man was named Sha Xing, who was a law enforcement officer under Gu Fangzhong. There was a red brocade cloth covering the wooden case, and there were naturally three knives under the cloth.
The law enforcement master Sha Xing placed the wooden case under the ancestor's spirit card, and then asked Zhang Haotian to light nine incense to respect each other, but asked the ancestor to watch the disciples of later generations take the precepts in the spirit of heaven to show that they dare not violate the rules they left behind.
Just as Zhang Haotian was burning incense, Gu Fangzhong's confidant Le Qianli hurried in from outside, and then attached himself to his ear and said something. Gu Fangzhong seemed to hesitate for a moment, then nodded to Le Qianli and waved his hand, letting him go out.
By the time Zhang Haotian finished ceremonies, five men and one woman had already walked in outside the hall, bowed to Gu Fangzhong, and then stood on the right end.
Zhang Haotian had already seen these six people clearly, namely Zhu Er, Wang Bin, Wu Xiaolong, Huang Guangsheng, Chen Qiang and Xiaowei. After Xiaowei came in, her eyes had never left him, and she looked anxious. Jie Jiafa on the other side was making gestures to them not to do anything.
Looking at this, Zhang Haotian already understood. It was obviously when he came today that Xiaowei realized something was wrong and called Jie Jiafa. Jie Jiafa told her that she had punished herself in the ancestor's palace. Xiaowei notified Zhu Er and the others to hurry over.
Zhang Haotian didn't want these people to come, just because he didn't want them to see the bloody light when he was punished. But at this time, he ignored them and stretched out his arms and slowly uncovered the red cloth covered by the wooden table. He saw three snow-colored sharp knives inside, about nine inches long, sharp and thin like willow leaves.
At this time, Zhang Haotian picked up the first knife, turned around, and faced the more than a hundred Wanhong Gang leaders in the hall, and shouted: "A Lang violated the gang rules and is now receiving the magic knife. Please ask all brothers to monitor."
As he said this, he had raised his arm and was about to stab him.
However, several voices suddenly started to scream in unison
"Brother Wolf, wait."
"Brother Wolf, don't."
"Wait a minute"
With these voices, Zhu Er and others had already walked out of the crowd.
Seeing this, Zhang Haotian immediately said in a deep voice: "You guys retreat immediately, this is my order."
Zhu Er is the oldest among the few people, so he is naturally the leader. At this time, he looked at Zhang Haotian and said, "Brother Wolf, we can follow your instructions for other things, but this matter cannot be done. You violated the order of the Longtou Master, and it was just to prevent us from dying for nothing. So even if you want to receive a magic knife, your brothers should bear it for you. In addition to Xiaowei, five of us men, one of us, will have five swords. I believe that the spirits of the ancestors in heaven will agree."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaowei said in a sharp voice: "No, including me, I have six swords, is that enough?"
Zhang Haotian would let them get the knife for him, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Whoever wants you to take care of me, I will say it again, step down, and step down immediately, otherwise, from now on, I will not be my brother."
Listening to Zhang Haotian saying this, watching him stare at him, knowing that he had made up his mind, Zhu Er and others looked silent and did not dare to disobey anymore, so they had to grit their teeth and retreat aside.
Seeing that Xiaowei was still standing in the hall and refused to retreat, Zhang Haotian shouted again: "Xiaowei, retreat quickly, have you heard that you have no idea. Do you want me to expel you from the school now?"
Chapter completed!
