Chapter 22: Variation and Spout
After hurriedly using the morning, Chen Rufeng took Hu Jiuwei and Ling Xiaoyu to the place where he had previously agreed to meet with Jiang Shengtian. Since knowing that the Gu brothers are coveted and have bad intentions towards him every year, Chen Rufeng feels that Chang'an should not stay for a long time, and it is better to leave early. Today is the last time I meet Jiang Shengtian, and I hope he can give a perfect answer. Even if he really insists on going against him, he is too lazy to pester and delay time.
After a while, the three came to the best teahouse in Chang'an City, "Viewing the Moon Tower". Looking up, the moon building is high in the air. On it, you can fully enjoy the surrounding architectural scenery. The building is magnificent. The building is divided into two floors, and there is a railing platform on the second floor. There are often migrant tourists touching the pole to look at Chang'an, which is so elegant.
"Lord, why did Master Jiang invite us to come here to meet?" Hu Jiu asked with little uncertainty.
Chen Rufeng did not answer, but his eyebrows were locked. When he first walked into the moon building, he suddenly felt something strange. It's early in the morning, and there should be a lot of guests tasting tea for breakfast here. How come there are no people? Only Xiao Er is cleaning and the shopkeeper playing with the beads.
"Three guests, are you invited by Mr. Jiang?" The little two politely walked to the three people, " Mr. Jiang has wrapped up the whole Yue Building today, and he is waiting for three people on the second floor."
Chen Rufeng nodded and looked at the empty tables and chairs around him. Jiang Shengtian, such a large teahouse, could be wrapped up. It can be seen that he is really like a fish in water in the prime minister's mansion now.
While Ling Xiaoyu was repeatedly marveling at the layout of the teahouse, Chen Rufeng had already walked up the stairs. Seeing that Hu Jiuwei had also followed, Ling Xiaoyu hurriedly picked up her steps and quickly caught up with their backs.
After walking a long step, the three people arrived at the second floor of the Yue Building. As soon as I stepped into the floor of the second floor, there was a smell of tea, like the fragrance of new leaves, which made people feel like being in the sea of clouds and fog, floating.
"Are you here?" A voice that sounded extremely friendly said that Jiang Shengtian was sitting on a wooden chair, holding a teacup leisurely with one hand. The cigarette was light, which added a little fairy to his face.
Chen Rufeng looked at him coldly, and Hu Jiuwei held his fist and arched his hand and said, "Master Jiang!"
Jiang Shengtian didn't say anything. He made a petition and smiled politely, "Sit down!"
Ling Xiaoyu's eyes swept back and forth between Chen Rufeng and Jiang Shengtian. After all, he was not familiar with Jiang Shengtian, but when he saw Chen Rufeng's ice-like face, he knew that the relationship between the two was not good now.
After Chen Rufeng sat down, Hu Jiuwei and Ling Xiaoyu sat next to him. Jiang Shengtian smiled and pushed the three small cups already filled with tea to the three people and said, "These are made of excellent tea. How about tasting this?"
"Sorry, we are very busy." Ling Xiaoyu was about to take up the teacup rudely, but she was shocked by Chen Rufeng's words, and the outstretched hand shrank back. After we finish talking about things, we will immediately go back to the Tianfeng Gang.
"Oh? So urgent?" Jiang Shengtian didn't care. He took a sip and showed a sweet expression. He looked at Chen Rufeng and had always responded to Chen Rufeng's ice front with a smile.
"Did you have an idea about what we talked about that night?" Chen Rufeng asked faintly.
Jiang Shengtian put away his smiling eyes, picked up the teapot attentively, and poured a small cup of tea for himself. When he put down the teapot, he said calmly, "As long as you agree to what I said, I will tell you my opinion."
After that, Jiang Shengtian smiled deeply again.
"Well," Chen Rufeng stood up and raised Jiang Shengtian's eyebrows. "It seems that there is nothing to talk about between us."
Chen Rufeng didn't say much. He turned around and wanted to leave. Ling Xiaoyu and Hu Jiuwei were not about to follow, but Jiang Shengtian shouted, "Slow down!"
"What?" Chen Rufeng asked coldly.
Jiang Shengtian smiled and said, "Are you really not going to taste this tea? But it's a rare good product in the world!"
"Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for your kindness."
The smile on Jiang Shengtian's face faded a lot in an instant, and Chen Ru led them down the stairs without looking back.
Walking to the railing of the building, Jiang Shengtian pressed his hands on the railing and looked at the three people who came out of the moon building downstairs. From a bird's eye view from a height, the three of them are as small as ants, which is almost the same as other ordinary people.
The corners of his mouth raised, but Jiang Shengtian's eyes looked in the direction of Xianlai Inn, "This time should be enough, right?"
"Lord, shall we return to the help now?" Hu Jiu didn't ask with a little tentative meaning, which seemed to be a very obscure picture. Chen Rufeng, who was thoughtful, knew why Hu Jiu didn't think at once.
"Let's go back to Xianlai Inn to say goodbye to Xie Wencheng's two sisters and brothers. It seems a little rude to leave without saying goodbye." Chen Rufeng said lightly.
Hu Jiuwei was refreshed and agreed with a smile: "Yes, that's what I think." Ling Xiaoyu, standing beside him, seemed to have guessed something and couldn't stop laughing.
Chen Rufeng smiled at Hu Jiuwei, but his heart was a little heavy.
The relocation of the gang is difficult, and now it can't get Jiang Shengtian's approval, which means that we have to give up.
"Is the Tianfeng Gang destined to succumb to the feet of Qianjianmen?" Chen Rufeng frowned a little worriedly. Since the relocation plan did not work, he had to think of another way to eliminate the impact of Qianjianmen on the Tianfeng gang.
Demont the Thousand Sword Gate? Regardless of whether this is a benevolent act or not, the strength of Tianfeng Gang's sudden rise today is not enough to shake the stable Qianjian Gate.
Chen Rufeng's eyebrows frowned deeper and deeper until he walked to the door of Xianlai Inn.
When he raised his head, a chill in his heart rose to the hearts of the three people.
There was no ordinary scene in the Xianlai Inn. On the contrary, it became devastated, and the tables and chairs were smashed. The second child of the inn was cleaning up the mess dejectedly. There seemed to have been some fierce fight here.
The three felt inappropriate when they saw this situation. Hu Jiuwei rushed up and walked into the inn.
intact tables and chairs, but a few. The whole inn is like ruins, and even objects such as decorations have been ruined, as if they have experienced an extremely terrible destruction.
"What the hell is going on?" Hu Jiu shouted without losing his voice, "Where's Boss Xie?"
The second child who was cleaning shook his head in frustration, which was difficult to say.
The intermittent sobs came from under a surviving table.
The three shocked walked along the source of the sound and saw Xie Wencheng, who had a swollen nose and blue face, hiding timidly under the table trembling, weeering and desolation.
"Sir Xie..." Chen Rufeng wanted to stretch out his hand to pull him out, but Xie Wencheng screamed as if he had received some great stimulation and shrank to the other side to avoid Chen Rufeng's hand.
"He looked a little distracted as if he had been greatly frightened by something. It's better to let him calm down. It's futile to ask him anything now. Ling Xiaoyu proposed, but Hu Jiuwei didn't seem to hear what he said. He lifted the table, grabbed Xie Wencheng's collar, and kept shaking him, as if he wanted to shake back all his lost souls.
"What the hell is going on! Where's your sister? Hu Jiuwei asked excitedly. Chen Rufeng and Ling Xiaoyu hurried forward to stop him, but Hu Jiu was so strong that they couldn't even pull away his hand with Xie Wencheng's collar.
"Sister..." Xie Wencheng suddenly stopped sobbing, his eyes were a little stunned, and then two lines of tears gushed out, drowning his face like a torrential rain and crying constantly.
"What... can make such a man cry so sad?" Chen Rufeng was still trying to pull Hu Jiuwei's hand away, looked at Xie Wencheng's appearance, and began to guess what had happened.
After a long time, Xie Wencheng slowly calmed down, but he still choked from time to time. The three helped him to the room on the second floor. Hu Jiuwei was not as excited as before and poured him a glass of water to surprise him.
"Son Xie, can you tell us what's going on?" Seeing that Xie Wencheng had been able to take a sip of water by himself, Chen Rufeng was sure that his reason was clear before he asked.
"It's them..." The tears of grievance began to turn in Xie Wencheng's eyes again.
"Who?"
"The two people who were rude to my sister that day, Gu brothers, Gu Hao and Gu Quan! They came today and said they would invite my sister to the house for a party. My sister didn't follow, so they forcibly took my sister away and drove away the guests in the inn, threatening us to raze our inn to the ground! Some chivalrous men living here couldn't see, but they didn't dare to take action. They were afraid of the power of the Gu brothers in Chang'an, so her sister...she was captured by them!"
Bum!
Hu Jiuwei broke the teacup in his hand with one hand, and his eyes were fierce and ferocious.
"Isn't this like robbing a woman!! How can they be so lawless?!" Hu Jiuwei roared and said, and his anger filled his whole body, making him tremble all over.
Chen Rufeng has never seen Hu Jiuwei so out of control. Like a beast about to break out of the cage, he released his endless anger and tore the enemy to pieces. He couldn't help looking at him with a little surprise, which was not Hu Jiuwei, who was usually calm.
"Master Chen...please! Help my sister!" Xie Wencheng knelt down and hugged Chen Rufeng's thigh and pleaded bitterly, "Both of them are famous ** thieves. I'm afraid my sister fell into their hands..."
"Ah!!!" Hu Jiu didn't roar, but he was about to rush out of the door to find Gu Hao and Gu Quan. Chen Rufeng knew that Hu Jiu had lost his due reason at this moment, and quickly said to Ling Xiaoyu next to him:
"Xiaoyu! Stop him! Don't let him fool!"
Ling Xiaoyu immediately understood that she caught up with Hu Jiuwei in a few steps, pulled his hands fiercely, and even used his real strength, which reluctantly made him unable to run out of the room.
"Earer Hu! Calm down! You can't save her like this!" Chen Rufeng shouted sharply, as if a thunderbolt in the plain woke up Hu Jiuwei's reason. Ling Xiaoyu, who was holding his wrists with both hands, suddenly moved the brute force that resisted him and disappeared.
Hu Jiu turned his head in a moment, with the same plea as Xie Wencheng in his eyes.
As soon as Ling Xiaoyu let go, Hu Jiuwei's whole body softened. He knelt down in front of Chen Rufeng and kowtowed heavily: "Master! Please help Boss Xie! I know we can't have a head-on conflict with the Gu brothers, but now they are really bullying! As long as the owner is willing to help to save Boss Xie's wife and move... I will no longer have any problem!"
Chen Rufeng quickly helped Hu Jiuwei and Xie Wencheng, who were kneeling on the ground. He didn't expect that Hu Jiuwei would ask him to save people with the condition of relocation. It can be seen that Xie Landing has a high status in his heart.
"Boss Xie is my friend. When my friend is in trouble, I, Chen Rufeng, am not a person who stands by!" Chen Rufeng said firmly. As soon as he said this, Hu Jiuwei and Xie Wencheng turned from sad to happy and grasped Chen Rufeng's arm tightly.
"However, the Gu brothers are very powerful in Chang'an, and we need to take a long-term perspective." Chen Rufeng said again, and Xie Wencheng, who was a little relieved, then lowered his head again.
"Gu brothers all have a '**' on their heads. If they drag it for too long, I'm afraid my sister will..." Xie Wencheng didn't dare to say any more, covering his face and shaking his head. Hu Jiuwei lost his voice for a moment, and there was a trace of despair in his eyes.
Chen Rufeng's face was dark at this moment, and he suddenly remembered something and raised his head.
"I'll find someone first, which may help us."
