Volume 1 Chapter 152: Clouded Leopard Xu Jiu (2)
Chapter 152: Cloud Leopard Xu Jiu (Part 2)
Stinky fish heard, immediately put the cup under his nose and sniffed it, dipped his little finger in water to taste the flavor, then smiled and drank the tea in one gulp, shook his head and nodded at Mozi, raised his foot on the chair next to him, suddenly spoke loudly, "What good tea is this? Did you add rouge from a girl's house?"
Mozi heard Zanjin's words and thought there was a problem with the tea, but when Chouyu drank it down steadily, she became a bit confused. In fact, she didn't know that this kind of poisoning was child's play for an old hand like Chouyu, but very effective on her.
"I've long heard that Xu Jiuxia, the Clouded Leopard, is a man of honor and integrity. But today, I see that you're not only narrow-minded, but also a coward who hides his head and tail like a mouse. You even put women's cosmetics in tea water! It doesn't disgust me, but rather makes me feel nauseous to death. Next time, try it yourself first, so as not to make a laughing stock of the Clouded Leopard gang, a group of women who wear makeup.
The Stinky Fish saw that the other party didn't respond and scolded even more, "You bunch of thieving bastards, with brains full of white paste, all you have are ears but can't hear? Do you think I'm deaf and nose-blocked, so you use your mouths to fart? If you have the ability, choke to death. Still not coming out? Then watch me smear the Clouded Leopard gang's reputation, making brothers in the underworld laugh to death at these useless trash."
Mozi couldn't help but laugh, thinking that Chouyu had finally gotten what was coming to her. In the past when they were sailing together, although he had already submitted to her, he still held back a bit with his words because she was a girl. Today's situation made him wonder if Mozi truly considered her as one of the guys.
"Girl, keep your beak clean for me. You dare to scold the Leopard Gang? Are you tired of living?" Bang! The door was kicked open by someone.
A dozen or so sturdy men in black jackets with red trim came rushing in, their eyebrows furrowed and eyes coldly fixed on the two women standing apart. A man wearing a blue satin shirt had his arm around a woman at the entrance, his eyes dazed as he stared at the two beauties without stopping, and suddenly kissed one of them on the cheek.
The woman giggled non-stop, pushing the man's big face away, and said in a soft voice, "Good Eighth Master, you want to kiss me, but also consider the timing. Someone is scolding you, shouldn't you deal with this matter first?"
This place is the most troublesome, without a bit of dignity, and it's impossible to open up a influential place like Worry-Free Pavilion. The nobles and high officials all come here. Naturally, as a woman of Worry-Free Pavilion, I'm also used to being glared at and scolded loudly.
"Spring mist, spring dress, tonight, you're not allowed to sit on anyone else's body again. Eighth Master wants all of you sisters to serve together." After kissing one, he then kissed another.
A burst of giggles, the pearl pendants shaking wildly. Later, the one who was kissed, Spring Dress, said, "Eighth Master has always been so domineering, let alone us two sisters; if you're willing to give Mother more silver, even calling over another pair of sisters would be no trouble at all! Tonight, Eighth Master will surely feel completely comfortable, and only then will we sisters let him go."
What's wrong with a man having four wives? Mu Zi isn't being malicious, but men who are too close to women will absolutely die young. Since ancient times, few emperors have lived long lives, and the main reason is that the three thousand concubines in the harem bring disaster.
He looked at the eighth master with a serious expression. The man was slightly stout, not very tall, with a pale and puffy face, bulging eyes, and a somewhat weak complexion.
"I have plenty of silver, I'm just afraid your mother won't be willing to let me monopolize her precious daughter for a whole night." Eighth Master burst out laughing.
After teasing, he saw the three people sitting with unchanged faces. One smiled and picked up the teapot to open the tea lid; one slightly smiled, with a slightly darker complexion but a very delicate appearance; one grinned foolishly, with round eyes, as if he didn't understand what he was saying at all. His face immediately filled with anger, feeling that the majestic Leopard Gang was humiliated by three unknown and nameless little rascals, and if he didn't teach them a lesson, he wouldn't be able to explain it to the gang members.
Then, with a snort, "Who is Mo Ge?" Tong Qian Gao said that Mo Ge had dark skin, a slender figure, and shiny skin. But he couldn't see anyone like that among the three of them.
"I am." The other party was rude and impolite, but Mozi didn't plan to lift a finger, still sitting with his hands not even raised. "Huo Ba Ye has quite the temper, making this place of indulgence feel cold and gloomy. I wonder if the other guests in Wu You Ge will complain to their mothers about the noise?"
Chun Nian's eyes widened in surprise as she glanced over, thinking that this young man was ignorant of the heavens and the earth, daring to rival the leader of the Leopard Gang. At a second glance, he was still a handsome young man, and immediately sent a flirtatious smile. However, they never expected that their opponent was actually a woman, who wouldn't react to their charms at all.
"Are you Mo Ge?" Hei was a bit dark, but not oily. However, he could say his name in one go, just like Tong Qian Gao said, with an oily mouth and a slippery tongue.
"It's just right." Today I used a bit less powder and oil, let's see how it actually works out, whether or not it will reveal my true identity.
Tong Qian Gao's eyes widened in surprise, "What kind of gaze is that? If someone were here, he would definitely kick him down the stairs!" "Is that how you repay my ninth brother?"
His face turned slightly pale, with a hint of purple around the corners of his mouth. "What's the meaning of this, Eighth Master? When did I ever owe Ninth Master any debt? Do you have any proof?"
"Listen up, kid. Don't play dumb with me. The Lin family owes 1,500 taels of silver, and you think a few words can get you out of it? If Lin Zhen's brother doesn't pay back the money, then Lin Zhen has to. You think you're some kind of hero? Fine, help her return the silver, and I'll let you off scot-free. Otherwise... don't blame me if you end up as my guest today." What sounds like an invitation is actually a euphemism for house arrest.
"Huo Ba Ye, it seems that your subordinates didn't make things clear to you, and there's a problem with your IOU. No wonder I'm being blamed. Speaking of which, Lin family's young master ran away early on, yet with so many helpers, you can't even catch up to a fugitive debtor, but instead bully a weak woman like me? Wouldn't that be embarrassing if it gets out?"
"Don't try to be clever with me, I'm not a fool. You people are always talking nonsense. Anyway, this money is owed by the Lin family and they haven't even returned a single copper coin yet. The Lin family will have to pay up obediently. Lin Dalang ran away, so Lin Zhen'niang has come to pay. Her method of paying back the debt is also easy: either she becomes my concubine, and this silver will be her dowry, which I'll return to Old Nine; or she goes into prostitution, sleeping with a thousand men, one or two taels at a time, to pay it back. If you really have a good heart and can't bear to look on, you can also help her pay the debt. However, looking at your appearance, I doubt you even have ten taels of silver on you." Huo Ba eyed Mozi's worn-out dark green shirt and saw that he only had a small pouch tied around his waist, without any valuable items.
"He's got sharp eyes, but this silver is what the Lin family owes to Master Xu. What account are you trying to settle with me? You just said that you're taking Zhen as a concubine, so this silver should be returned to Master Xu. It seems that even brothers have to calculate their accounts clearly. Today, I was invited by Master Xu. Even if we take a step back and say it's his responsibility to talk to me about this matter, Eight Master is still being dishonest with his host. This kind of hospitality needs improvement." Although Mu Zi doesn't mince words, she's actually thinking that things are going terribly wrong. She's most afraid of running into unreasonable people. Since He Bo refuses to follow the written agreement and is using force to coerce her, she's at a disadvantage.
"Tong Qian Gao, you haven't said anything wrong, but this kid's mouth is really sharp. However, it's useless against me. Come on, give these three stinky kids a beating, don't stop until they beg for mercy." Indeed, the true gangster style, when words fail, fists prevail.
Mozi suddenly wanted to ask a question, so she raised her voice, "Eighth Master, I want to know, is today's banquet in the name of Xu Jiu?" If she had to be beaten, she would rather have a clear target for her revenge. Would she also include Yunbao Xu Jiu when she came to "settle the score"?
"Lao Jiu is so incompetent, who can compare to my efficiency? I'm just using Lao Jiu's name, didn't expect you to actually show up. You're in for a bad luck tonight. Don't worry, on Wu You Ma's turf, I won't cause any bloodshed, just venting some anger. By the way, Lin Zhen Niang, you also have to hand her over to me." Can't forget the person I want the most.
Indeed.
Mozi saw Huo Ba reveal his face and guessed that he had been deceived. Recently, he had a good fight with Qiu San Niang, and he was so proud of himself that he forgot his shape. Thinking that Xu Jiu's reputation was not bad, and it was in a public place, the matter would not be too embarrassing even if it was noisy. Maybe it was because there was no good feast, so he brought Zan with him. With more stinky fish, he thought he was sure to win. But unexpectedly, someone impersonated him, and there were many people, and when they all came up together, four fists could not contend with so many hands. In the end, it was because of his lack of experience, and his brain was not that clever after all.
Probably for convenience, Huo chose a spacious private room. Those thugs immediately surrounded Mo Zi and the others upon receiving the order. Each of them rubbed their fists and wiped their palms, swinging their thick arms to strike.
This battle cannot be avoided
Mozi hadn't come up with a good countermeasure yet, and Zan Jin sent her to the large round table, where she was guarded by Chouyu and two others in front of the table.
"Smelly fish shouted loudly, 'He Ba, you son of a turtle, have the guts to fight one on one? Otherwise, it's not just your subordinates who will be disabled and lose their limbs, but also their families will suffer.'"
A green light flashed by, and Hou Ba's hand that was about to hit Zan's chest was suddenly frozen in mid-air, not moving.
"Zan Jin, is he dead?" Mu Zi jumped in fright.
Zan Jin pointed his sword at another person who was a bit shriveled up, "No, I hit him with the scabbard." He kicked the person on the ground with his foot and saw that he groaned, "Useless thing, fainted."
"Just knock them out, don't take their lives." Who knows if the Leopard Gang has backing from officials.
Zan Jin and Chou Yu responded to Mo Zi, focusing on the couplet.
Mozi watched for a while and then put her mind at ease. Generally, Zan Jin advanced one sword sheath and stabbed someone into unconsciousness, with an expression that was not quite satisfied on his face. And Chou Yu was even more ruthless, using both hands to break people's bones, either arms or legs. The bones snapped loudly, and the person screamed loudly. Although Mozi felt it was a bit too much, she couldn't bear to advise him again. Everyone's martial arts path is different, what if he didn't let him break people's bones, but instead got beaten by others?
Chun Nian saw that things were not going in her favor and immediately let out a startled cry as she ran out.
Huò Bā didn't expect the two people Mò Gē brought to be experts. He quickly turned his eyes, taking advantage of Zàn Jìn and Chòu Yú being busy dealing with his subordinates. With a shout, he jumped up from his chair and pounced on Mò Zǐ, who was watching from the table.
As soon as he made his move, his ten fingers turned into eagle claws, gathering the power of ten years, and surprisingly brought a fierce and murderous aura.
