Chapter 108 Intelligence Update and Three Knives and Six Holes
A night of wind and rain, two tears, the heart reveals deeper feelings.

Early in the morning, Chen Jie got up and looked at his wife lying beside the bed, feeling extremely pity for her.

I don’t know if it’s because of the hurt she’d experienced in the past that made her maintain a defensive attitude towards this world.

As a result, she always likes to curl up into a ball when she sleeps.

It's as if he's trying to shrink himself into his shell.

Chen Jie got up. It was just dawn.

Others might still be sleeping soundly, but Chen Jie woke up and prepared to stretch his muscles. He had reached the flesh training stage. Defeating Yu Biao was not the end, but a new beginning.

the world is huge.

If the world is compared to a game, then Chen Jie may not even have stepped out of the novice village.

As soon as Chen Jie moved, Su Yunjin woke up and opened her sleepy eyes.

"I woke you up, go back to sleep."

Su Yunjin stood up and checked the time and said, "So early, husband?"

"Practice boxing."

The wife didn't ask any more questions. She nodded and dragged her slightly tired body to prepare cooking for her husband.

Chen Jie said: "Don't worry, I think it will take an hour to practice, you can sleep for a while."

Having said that, Chen Jie put on his clothes and walked out.

Su Yunjin did not continue sleeping in the outer room. He moved the stool that was against the door to the inner room and went into the inner room. He saw the little kid kicking off the quilt and lying on the bed with his arms and legs spread, sleeping soundly.

Children are good, they are carefree and have no worries.

After helping her sister cover the quilt again, she sat on the edge of the bed and began to practice breathing according to the Yangchun Jue breathing method.

She didn't know any boxing, so she only knew breathing techniques. Now she found that she was becoming more and more proficient in this breathing technique, and had a lot of understanding of her own.

I even practice it unconsciously when I am working. Unfortunately, after falling asleep, my breathing technique is not smooth without any consciousness. It would be great if I could practice the breathing technique while sleeping!
She watched over her sister as she practiced her breathing technique.

At this time, Chen Jie was standing outside, practicing the Water Control Palm. Kung Fu must be practiced every day.

There is a saying: Keep your fists on your hands and your songs on your lips. If you don’t practice for one day, your hands will become useless in three days. If you don’t practice for a year, your hands will become useless in ten years!

Therefore, diligence is a must for every practitioner.

While practicing martial arts, Chen Jie also opened yesterday's intelligence panel.

When the intelligence was updated yesterday, Chen Jie was learning poetry from Su Yunjin, just like Chen Qingquan learning a foreign language, they both had to study very seriously, so he did not check it.

So this morning he happened to check yesterday's intelligence.

[Today's intelligence has been updated (level 2)]

[1. Yesterday you killed Yu Biao and got the information that Yu Biao was Gu Qingshan's apprentice, and Gu Qingshan was Gu Qingfeng's elder brother. The two brothers had a good relationship, but Gu Qingshan had a chronic illness due to an incident in the past and died suddenly not long after.]

[2. You met with Butler Yu Biao yesterday and got information that Butler Yu Biao was highly valued by Yu Biao and had deep feelings for Yu Biao. You killed his master, so he holds a grudge against you...]

[3. You drank with Peng Shizhong yesterday and got information that Peng Shizhong is the leader of the fishing gang and Nan Batian's senior brother. The two of them both became apprentices of the former leader of the fishing gang and each of them acquired a magical skill. Later, because of the position of leader, the two brothers fell out. Their relationship is like fire and water, but they remain calm on the surface, just like the undercurrent, dangerous! ]

[4. Yesterday you met Zheng Chuan and got information that Zheng Chuan is the brother-in-law of the captain Zhao Xun. Since you won the battle of Baozheng, Zheng Chuan was under pressure to arrest Zhao Xun and secretly took him to the fish pen to prepare to enforce the rules of the fishing gang! ]

[5. Since you thought about Yihonglou many times yesterday, I got the information that Yihonglou was built with funds from a mysterious financier, and the Mianshui County Magistrate holds two floors of the shares. It is the number one den of brothels in Mianshui County, with four major courtesans in spring, summer, autumn and winter, each with their own unique style. It is truly the best place to learn poetry and seek incense! ]

Chen Jie was practicing boxing. When he saw the content of the intelligence, he suddenly stopped and a look of shame and anger appeared on his face.

What does the fifth piece of information mean? What does it mean that I thought of Yihonglou many times yesterday? According to the explanation of the intelligence system, after upgrading to level 2, the fifth piece of information can show the thing you want to know most. What does it mean to show me such information now?
What do you mean? You said that I had some feelings for Yihonglou, right? I tell you, I didn’t. System, you are slandering me, you are defaming me!

However, it seems that the Yihonglou has a very strong backer, and the county magistrate even owns 20% of the shares. No wonder it has become so big. In fact, think about it, didn’t those who worked in entertainment venues in their previous lives also do business with both the black and white parties?
If you can't make arrangements in every way, you won't be able to handle this business well.

As for the other pieces of news, the first and second ones said that after Yu Biao was killed by him, the people of Cao Gang hated him, the most important of them was Gu Qingfeng.

However, Chen Jie was not too afraid. So what about Gu Qingfeng?
He had beaten Yu Biao to death in the ring. According to the rules of Mianshui County, he had to hold back even if he wanted to fight again.

If the Thirteen Protectors attacked him, what would happen if the news got out? It would be like the seniors dealing with the juniors in the martial arts world. If this was the case, then the leader of the Fishing Gang could also attack the juniors of the Cao Gang.

How many of these younger generations who haven't grown up can withstand the pursuit of their predecessors? In the end, the two factions lost their talents and were replaced by other gangs.

Don't underestimate other gangs. Although the Cao Gang and the Yu Gang are the two most dominant factions in Mianshui County, there are still other small gangs trying to survive in the cracks.

The reason these two sects were able to stand out was due to the support of the imperial court. Since the imperial court could help them, it could naturally switch to another force for support after their internal strength was exhausted.

This is also the reason why the two major gangs have to set rules, and even the gang leaders have to abide by them.

The lips and teeth are interdependent, so how can we let outsiders take advantage of us?

Therefore, the possibility that Gu Qingfeng would attack him directly was very small. As for the Yu family's housekeeper, the one who used little thoughts, Chen Jie felt that he could kill him when he found a chance, but he couldn't go directly. If he went to his house and killed him now, it would be a big trouble if the Cao Gang found out.

Therefore, it is not easy to touch the butler now.

So leave him alone for now.

Then there is the third piece of information. Peng Shizhong has a bad relationship with the leader of the Fishing Gang, Nan Batian. He knew it.

This piece of information further confirmed the fact that the two were not in harmony. Unfortunately, this was an unsolvable problem for Chen Jie at the moment.

What Chen Jie wants is to climb up, gain more power, and become more powerful in martial arts.

Then we are faced with the problem of taking sides.

What you get is always proportional to what you pay. If you want to be Peng Shizhong's adopted son and enjoy the rights, you must bear the corresponding risks.

Is it because he is afraid of the gang leader's hatred that he gives up the opportunity to become Peng Shizhong's adopted son and climb the ladder to heaven?
In fact, it is not impossible for me to give up recognizing my adoptive father, but if I give up Peng Shizhong, then Nan Batian will not accept me as his adopted son!

Chen Jie was unwilling to accept the fact that he had completely lost the opportunity to join the upper echelons of the fishing gang.

Opportunities in life are not always available.

As for the fourth piece of information, it was about his future stance in the fishing gang.

Zheng Chuan, Peng Shizhong's second adopted son, is the manager of the White Tiger Hall of the Fishermen's Gang. He holds great power and even suppresses his eldest son Feng Xuan. He is Peng Shizhong's number one helper.

But this person turned out to be Zhao Xun's brother-in-law.

In fact, calling him brother-in-law is a bit of an exaggeration for Zhao Xun.

Zhao Xun's sister is actually a concubine, and the status of a concubine is far lower than that of a wife. Zhao Xun has no right to call Zheng Chuan brother-in-law.

But sister Zhao Xun is resourceful and is deeply loved by Zheng Chuan. This is why Zhao Xun was able to parachute into Xiantao Town and defeat Li Sanding to become the captain.

But now he has forced his brother-in-law to arrest his brother-in-law himself, and he has created a feud with Manager Zheng.

However, Chen Jie did not feel uneasy.

This world is cruel. People who want to climb up will always offend all kinds of people. After all, there are only so many benefits, and as long as you want them, you can't avoid competing with others.

What’s more, now is an era of great contention!
After breakfast, Hu Zi came hurriedly and said that Uncle Zhong had called everyone to gather at the fish pen, saying that Zhao Xun had been captured and the gang rules were to be enforced, and all disciples of the fishing gang were invited to go and watch the ceremony!

After hearing this, Chen Jie hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls of rice and went to the fish pen with Hu Zi.

At this time, all the more than one hundred men in the fish pen had arrived, and not far away there were four disciples wearing black clothes with white tiger heads embroidered on their chests. They were holding down a man who was kneeling on the ground, with his mouth stuffed with a white cloth, his body tied with ropes, and his head drooping.

Looking closely, it turned out to be the escaped Zhao Xun.

At this time, the people in the fish pen gathered there, pointing and whispering.

Zhao Xun was looking downcast, when suddenly he saw a figure in the crowd.

The man was very young, full of vigor and vitality, with a heroic look between his eyebrows. When people around him saw him, they immediately shouted respectfully, "Brother Jiusi!"

Chen Jie smiled and nodded to everyone with a kind attitude.

He already has the demeanor of a superior.

At this time, Zhao Xun saw Chen Jie, his eyes full of complicated emotions.

Hatred, envy, and disbelief!

Needless to say, the hatred was great. If Chen Jie's plan to ambush Wu Zhong had not succeeded, he would not be kneeling here, waiting for punishment according to gang rules.

Instead, you should sit in the house, drink tea, and enjoy the treatment of a steward.

But behind the hatred, there is also a bit of envy. This bastard was actually adopted as a son by Peng Shizhong. This is something that many people dream of but cannot achieve!

Then, it was incredible.

How long has Chen Jiusi been practicing martial arts? He, he is growing so fast!

With an extremely responsibly-feeling mood, he stared at Chen Jie, and Chen Jie also looked at him.

When our eyes meet, so many past memories are remembered.

Chen Jie had no desire to talk to Zhao Xun. He just took a look and left. He entered the location of the ancestral hall today and waited silently. During this time, many people greeted him.

He calls him Brother Jiu Si all the time.

At this time, in the manager's room of the fish pen, Zheng Chuan was kneeling on the ground, and sitting at the top was Peng Shizhong.

"Foster father, I want to apologize to you."

Peng Shizhong looked at Zheng Chuan and said, "Second brother, what are you doing?"

Zheng Chuan said: "The traitor Zhao Xun is the younger brother of my concubine. So, he should be considered my brother-in-law. I helped him get this job..."

Peng Shizhong waved his hands and said, "I know all this. You did nothing wrong. Although Zhao Xun is a traitor, he still has some abilities. He hasn't caused any major trouble over the years."

Peng Shizhong is fair in what he does.

Zheng Chuan said: "Foster father, not only that, but more importantly, after the accident, this beast actually ran to my house for refuge. My concubine felt sorry for my brother and hid him. I didn't know about it until yesterday. This is my son's fault. Please punish me, foster father!"

Ah!
After hearing this, Peng Shizhong frowned. It turned out that he had been hiding in the second brother's house these days.

At this time, Feng Xuan said, "Second Brother, I heard that you have always been good at managing your family. Isn't it a bit unreasonable that such a living person hid in your house for several days and you only found out about it after your adoptive father asked about it yesterday? Or, if your adoptive father didn't ask, would you have kept this a secret?"

"Boss, what do you mean?"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Chuan looked up at Feng Xuan.

Feng Xuan smiled and said, "What's the point of being the eldest brother? I just want to say that we should not lie to our foster father. One is one, two is two. My foster father will forgive you!"

"When did I lie to my foster father, Boss? You are framing me by saying this!"

Zheng Chuan glared at Feng Xuan, and Feng Xuan laughed and said, “Then just be the big brother, it’s nonsense.”

Zheng Chuan was even more excited, but when he saw Peng Shizhong looking at him with an inquiring look, Zheng Chuan immediately said: "Adoptive father, there is absolutely no concealment in this matter, please investigate it."

Peng Shizhong took a sip of tea and said, "It doesn't matter what happened, but we can't let Zhao Xun go."

"Of course, this beast actually dared to collude with the enemy and betray his own people. The Fishermen's Gang will not tolerate him!"

After hearing this, Zheng Chuan said, "But I am also wrong. I did not conduct a thorough investigation on my family. Please punish me, foster father!"

Peng Shizhong thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll fine you one year's salary as a small punishment."

"Thank you stepfather!"

Zheng Chuan thanked him immediately. At this time, Peng Shizhong looked at Wu Zhong who was standing beside him and said, "Chuan'er, I'll give you my salary for that year. I heard that because of your injury this time, the old man has emptied all his family assets. It's time to replenish them."

"Thank you, steward."

Wu Zhong thanked him immediately, and followed Peng Shizhong and said, "Okay, it's almost time. Tell them to set up the incense hall and apply the family law!"

After hearing this, Wu Zhong immediately responded: "Yes, I will arrange it right away."

Wu Zhong rushed out and arranged for people to set up the incense hall and apply family rules.

At this time, Chen Jie was waiting in the incense hall. Zhou Chu came in. Zhou Chu was very happy and hummed a little tune.

Chen Jie looked at Zhou Chu like this and said with a smile: "Haha, why are you so happy today?"

After hearing this, Zhou Chu laughed and said, "Haha, of course there is something good. I just received the letter, and my father-in-law helped me to move up. Today I will go into the city with you."

"Oh, your father-in-law has such great power?"

Chen Jie was also a little surprised. Zhou Chu smiled and said, "Hehe, that's my father-in-law. Forget it, I'll tell you later. Who knows, there may be things you can't imagine in the future."

Zhou Chu said, and then looked around and said: "I just saw Zhao Xun. This kid is dead today."

After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "You mean, family rules?"

Zhou Chu said: "The family law of the fishing gang is three cuts and six holes, but this kid is a traitor and secretly harms his superiors. He should be punished with three big cuts. He will not survive."

After hearing this, Chen Jie asked curiously, "It's still divided by size."

"Of course, I tell you, these three cuts and six holes are very particular. This small three cuts, the knife is so long, it can just pierce the thigh."

"When it was carried out, the younger brothers who had made mistakes would take a knife and stab themselves in the thigh. After three stabs, each time the knife went through, six holes would be left when the knife was pulled out, in order to atone for their sins. This was called the "small three-stab" method."

"So, what about the big three swords?"

Chen Jie asked curiously after hearing this.

Zhou Chu was about to speak when he heard a voice shouting, "The Hall Master is here!"

"I'll tell you in a minute."

Zhou Chu said this, and then immediately followed everyone else in bowing and saluting: "Greetings, Hall Master."

Peng Shizhong strode forward at this time, followed by Feng Xuan, who had a happy look on his face as if he was watching a show, and Zheng Chuan, who had a grim face.

At this time, the three men entered the incense hall, and all the younger brothers lined up.

Wu Zhong looked at Peng Shizhong and said, "I urged you all to come here today so that you can witness the fate of the traitors!"

"Zhao Xun colluded with the enemy and plotted to murder his superiors. This is a crime of treason. Therefore, under the wise leadership of Hall Master Peng, it was decided to enforce the family law on him - three cuts and six holes."

"Arrest the traitor, Zhao Xun, come up!"

After hearing this, the four White Tiger Hall elites who were guarding Zhao Xun outside immediately forced Zhao Xun into the hall.

At this time, the younger brother standing behind kicked Zhao Xun to the ground.

At this time Wu Zhong said: "Please come, Grandmaster!"

Upon hearing this, the younger brothers below immediately carried up a statue of a deity. This deity was wearing a red Taoist robe, had white hair and a childlike face, and wore a gilded crown on his head.

He held a whip in his right hand and a bamboo scroll with a small flag rolled inside in his left hand.

who is this?

Chen Jie was guessing when Zhou Chu said, "This is our ancestor, Tai Gong Wang!"

"That grandpa?"

Zhou Chu said: "Jiang Taigong, the Jiang Taigong who fished with a straight hook by the Wei River."

"Jiang Ziya!"

Chen Jie's eyes widened. Wow! He really broadened his horizons. This was the first time he knew that the founder of their fishing gang was Jiang Ziya!
But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense. People say that the ancestor of crosstalk can be Dongfang Shuo, so it makes sense that the ancestor of my profession as a fisherman is Jiang Ziya!

After figuring this out, Peng Shizhong strode forward and took the three lit incense sticks from Feng Xuan beside him.

He paid his respects to the ancestors and gods, then inserted it into the incense burner.

At this time, a younger brother naturally brought over a throne. Peng Shizhong lifted up his long gown and sat on the chair, crossing his legs. The whole process was elegant and stylish.

"let's start!"

After hearing this, Wu Zhong said, "Please use family rules!"

As he spoke, a younger brother came forward dragging a huge tray. On the tray were three long, thin knives. Each of the knives was more than one meter long, with a thin and narrow blade. They were called knives, but in fact they were more like swords, but with a single blade.

At this time Zhou Chu said: "See, this is the Big Three Swords."

"The little three knife stabbed and pushed the thigh, the injury was not fatal, it was to punish the mistake."

"But they used three big knives, which was aimed at killing people. One knife stabbed the stomach, two knives stabbed the chest, and three knives stabbed the heart. Three knives and six holes were left. Basically, there was no survivor."

After hearing this, Chen Jie nodded.

"No, that's not right either."

After hearing this, Zhou Chu said, "In fact, one of them should have survived and is doing well."

"Can you survive this?"

Chen Jie asked in surprise. He didn't think the person could survive after being stabbed three times and pierced six times.

At this time Zhou Chu said: "There really is one alive. I heard this from my father-in-law. He is a big shot in our fishing gang."

"Who?"

Chen Jie asked curiously.

Zhou Chu said: "Boss!"

Um? ?

Chen Jie was confused. Gang leader? Nan Batian? ?
Zhou Chu made a silent gesture, and Chen Jie exclaimed: "Can this guy still be alive?"

Zhou Chu said: "The leader is very lucky. The first knife pierced his intestines, but the second knife did not hurt his internal organs. When the third knife pierced his heart, our leader's heart was on the right side, so he dodged it."

After hearing this, Chen Jie's eyes widened. This person is so lucky.

And the heart is on the right side, which is true, but it's too much of a coincidence.

"That's not right. Since you said the gang leader had committed the crime of three knives and six holes, how could he still be the gang leader?"

Chen Jie found it magical.

Zhou Chu said: "According to the rules of the Fishermen's Gang, three cuts and six holes can erase all hatreds and absolve all past sins. As long as you endure the punishment of three cuts and six holes, then no matter how big your mistake is, it will be over, and no one can mention it in the future."

"Especially the three big swords. To endure these three big swords is equivalent to paying with one's life. If one survives, it means that the King of Hell will not take him. Since the King of Hell will not take him, we can't chase him and take his life!"

After hearing this, I thought that these gang members are quite feudal and superstitious.

Actually, if you think about it, is it possible not to be feudal and superstitious?

In this society, there are no people who are not feudal and superstitious. Thinking of this, Wu Zhong said, "Untie the criminal's mouth."

One person went up and pulled out the cloth from Zhao Xun's mouth. At this time, Wu Zhong said, "Zhao Xun, what do you want to say at this moment?"

Zhao Xun raised his head and looked at everyone in front of him with hatred.

Finally, he fixed his eyes on Zheng Chuan and said, “Brother-in-law, I didn’t expect you to use me as a favor!”

Zheng Chuan said with a dark face: "Your brother-in-law is not here, and since you dare to betray your own people, even God can't save you. When you did this, you should have known the consequences!"

Hearing this, Zhao Xun laughed loudly and said, "Hahaha, what a righteous man! Okay, brother-in-law, I won't ruin your future. I admit what I did!"

"I colluded with Yu Biao of the Cao Gang and informed him of Wu Zhong's whereabouts. I wanted to replace his son. I admit all of this!"

"I'm in this situation now because I, Zhao Xun, am unlucky. I met this troublemaker. I admit defeat!"

"At this point, I have nothing to say. Come on, let me die happily, come on!"

Zhao Xun was still a man. At this time, he did not cry or kneel down to beg for mercy. He said everything he should say.

He has done everything he should do, and he is willing to accept defeat.

Just this point made Chen Jie look at him with new eyes. This kind of person is also a character, but he just has bad luck.

Seeing Zhao Xun like this, Peng Shizhong nodded and said, "Well, this is still a man. Zhao Xun, if you don't die, your future and past will be wiped out. If you die, then the Grandmaster will take your life and execute you as a disciple!"

"exist!"

At this time, a disciple with a sturdy build stood up. This disciple was responsible for carrying out the execution.

But at this moment, Zheng Chuan stepped forward, clasped his fists and said, "Godfather, let me see him off for the last time!"

Peng Shizhong frowned slightly and said, "Second brother, no need."

"Unrighteous father, please help your son!"

After hearing this, Peng Shizhong sighed and said, "Forget it, Lao Er, come on!"

Hearing this, Zheng Chuan looked at Zhao Xun who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Zhao Xun, your brother-in-law will see you off for the last time!"

Zhao Xun couldn't help but tremble, then smiled and said, "Okay."

Zheng Chuan then took an execution knife, and the disciples stepped forward and pulled off Zhao Xun's clothes, revealing his strong body.

At this time, Zheng Chuan took the knife, pointed it at his stomach, and stabbed it directly with a ruthless heart.

"Ah~"

Zhao Xun's face instantly turned red, his muscles trembled, his eyes bulged, and his back teeth were almost broken from the pain.

puff!

The knife pierced through the back, leaving one hole for each cut.

A disciple at the side said, "A knife pierces the poisonous intestines, and atonement is also heartbreaking."

"Ah, ah..."

Zhao Xun screamed in pain, blood instantly flowed down his lower body, and he could no longer kneel. Naturally, his younger brothers came forward to support him.

Can you fall down before you have fully served your sentence?
At this time, Zheng Chuan took the second knife, and his hands were also covered in blood.

Zheng Chuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Second knife!"

A bolt of lightning hit Zhao Xun's chest. Zhao Xun felt that he was completely gone and his vitality was fading away. At this moment, his head hit Zheng Chuan's shoulder directly.

"Sister, brother-in-law, don't forget, don't forget what you promised me..."

"My sister, I'll leave it to you..."

"My little nephew is the heir of your Zheng family..."

"Don't worry, brother. I will fulfill my promise to you."

Zheng Chuan spoke.

At this time, Zhao Xun laughed: "Haha, my sister has had a hard time, okay, treat her well..."

"Ok!"

With a stabbing sound, the knife went straight through the back spine.

At this time, Zhao Xun was taking his last breath, and it was like a movie playing in his mind.

When he was a child, his family was really poor. His father died early, and his mother married his stepfather, who beat and scolded him and his sister.

He was cowardly at that time, and every time he was beaten by his stepfather, his sister would stand up for him.

But my sister couldn’t beat my stepfather, and was often beaten by him. He even didn’t give them food. I remember another time when my sister and I were beaten and locked in a small dark room without food or water for two days.

At that time, my sister only had one cake, and she gave it all to herself.

She only eats a little bit of biscuit crumbs...

Later, my sister married Zheng Chuan by chance, and that's how she lived her happy life today.

He wanted to be the manager because he wanted to help his sister so much. His sister was Zheng Chuan's concubine. A concubine, no matter how favored she was, was still a concubine!
She had no power from her mother's family, so she had to compromise in the Zheng family.

He wanted to be the manager. As long as he became the manager, the fish pen in Xiantao Town would belong to him, and also to his sister. Then his sister wouldn't have to live such a hard life.

Her brother-in-law could also be nicer to her.

The eldest lady did not dare to bully her so unscrupulously.

But he failed, and he never thought he did anything wrong.

is it wrong?
He just failed. Was killing Wu Zhong a wrong thing?
No, he didn't think he was wrong, he just failed. If he had succeeded, he would be his sister's supporter and the hungry supporter of the province outside the school.

If you fail, this is the outcome.

He knows and he doesn't regret it!

This world is full of intrigue, struggle for power and profit. In order to win, people can abandon everything, including morality.

This is how the world is. If you don’t study how to eat people, then the world will study how to eat you.

In fact, he didn't even hate Chen Jiusi that much anymore.

He just ruined his own plans.

I failed, but it helped him grow. What's wrong with that? It's the law of the jungle. That's how it is.

Oh...I'm so tired!

But it's all worth it.

He originally took a month's harvest from the fishing pond and went to the city to find his sister. His original intention was to see his sister, leave some money for her, and then go far away, never to return.

But my sister said that she would find a way for herself, so she went to ask her brother-in-law for help.

He actually knew the result. The person he wanted to kill was Wu Zhong, Doctor Bai's son-in-law.

With Doctor Bai's connections, this matter would not end like this.

He had thought it all out and left yesterday.

But Zheng Chuan sent people yesterday and told him that Zheng Chuan could not protect him. He could run away, but the Fishing Gang would catch him soon and his death would be in vain.

It would be better to surrender and let Zheng Chuan offer himself to him.

In this way, Zheng Chuan can get rid of suspicion and help him.

He would not let his death be in vain. He promised that he would take good care of his sister and that the nephew born by his sister would inherit the family business in the future.

My sister’s biggest dream is to let her son live a good life.

My sister’s dream is my dream, so I agreed to it!
Zhao Xun was covered in blood, his consciousness was blurred, and it was obvious that he was not going to survive.

At this time, the younger brother who was supervising the execution continued: "Two knives pierced the lungs and cut off the path to the future life."

After hearing this, Zheng Chuan also saw that Zhao Xun could no longer hold on.

At this time, holding the knife, he sighed: "Brother-in-law, I will send you on your last journey."

The knife pierced Zhao Xun's heart directly. His heart was pierced. Zhao Xun's eyes suddenly widened as if he had a last burst of light.

Then, like a deflated ball, the whole person collapsed, and the knife came out from the back of his scapula!
Seeing this scene, everyone fell silent!

Zhao Xun fell in a pool of blood, his heart stopped beating, his breathing stopped, and his life was buried.

"Three stabs to the heart, the sins are cleared, life and death are left to fate!"

Everyone was silent at this time, all staring at Zhao Xun lying in a pool of blood.

The family rules of the fishing gang are so harsh that no one can escape them.

Zheng Chuan looked at Zhao Xun who was lying on the ground, patted his shoulder, and stood up silently.

The people around were very quiet, and everyone felt grief-stricken.

Why do we need to set up an incense hall and implement the criminal law of three cuts and six holes?

In addition to punishing evil, the most important thing is to warn future generations.

Let me show you the price you have to pay for making a mistake in the fishing gang.

It also makes all the younger brothers in the fishing gang realize that the strict rules of the gang do not mean that you can sit back and relax once you join the gang.

While enjoying your rights, you must also always bear obligations and risks.

The executioner stepped forward to look at the whites of Zhao Xun's eyes and check his pulse. Finally, he stood up and looked at Peng Shizhong and said, "Master, he is dead!"

Peng Shizhong said: "Well, the sins have been cleared, and the family can bury the body themselves."

Zheng Chuan waved his hand and sent his men to collect Zhao Xun's body.

Feng Xuan looked at Zheng Chuan and said, "Brother, you are really cruel. Can you be so cruel as to kill your own brother-in-law?"

Zheng Chuan said coldly: "Gang rules are ruthless. Anyone who breaks the gang rules will be punished accordingly."

Feng Xuan said: "Otherwise, brother, you can achieve great things. You are so cruel, you are not as good as me."

Seeing this, Zheng Chuan was silent for a moment and ignored him.

Feng Xuan didn't say anything either.

At this time, Peng Shizhong looked at all the younger brothers of the fishing gang present and said, "The gang rules are as hard as iron and cannot be violated. Today's Zhao Xun is the best example. Please follow the gang rules and don't make mistakes!"

After hearing this, everyone fell silent.

At this moment, everyone understood what a fishing gang was.

This is not a game of house. It's not a place where you can just collect fish taxes and be done with it. Here, you have to abide by the gang rules. This is a group with rules, not a gang of hooligans.

Chen Jie was silent.

Although he had killed many people, such as Ma Liu, Yu Biao, and Yu Sanliu, all of whom were killed by himself, that kind of killing was not...

This is different from being punished according to gang rules.

Three cuts and six holes, that is a disregard for life, that feeling of being able to directly dominate the life and death of others, how to put it, a little scary, and a little mysterious.

Chen Jie feels that he still has a lot to learn.

When Chen Jie was thinking about what had just happened, he found someone patting his shoulder. Chen Jie turned around and saw Feng Xuan.

Feng Xuan said with a smile on his face: "Brother Jiusi."

"Manager Feng."

Feng Xuan said: "Why call me manager? From now on, we are all my adoptive father's sons. Just call me big brother!"

"Brother Feng!"

Chen Jie bowed his head and saluted. Feng Xuan said, "Jiu Si, go back and prepare. We will be back in the city in half an hour."

After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Oh, I'm ready."

Feng Xuan nodded and said, "Are you bringing your family with you this time?"

Chen Jie said: "Well, my wife and sister will go with me."

Feng Xuan said: "Oh, that's perfect. I have prepared a carriage for you, my dear brother. It's just right for your family of three to ride in a carriage."

"carriage?"

Chen Jie was stunned. You know, they were in the south, where there were not as many horses as in the north. There were very few horses here, and only people from wealthy families could afford a carriage.

And if you want a good horse that can be ridden, it will be very expensive, which is something Chen Jie cannot afford with his current status.

Apart from anything else, a good horse's feed costs about thirty cents a day. Thirty cents is enough to feed a family of five for a day.

That’s why horses are more valuable than humans.

Therefore, in Mianshui County, one can often see a sedan chair carried by two people or a small sedan chair, but rarely a horse-drawn carriage.

You know, it costs much less to hire two sedan bearers than to hire a horse.

Therefore, in the city, there are many more people riding in sedan chairs than riding on horses, and the truly wealthy ride horses or carriages.

Feng Xuan took Chen Jie outside and saw a blue-roofed carriage straight ahead.

This carriage doesn't look cheap at first glance. You have to know that carriages of that era were also divided into different grades.

For example, the lowest-grade horse-drawn carriage does not have a carriage shed, like the ones often used in rural areas to transport goods or manure.

Moreover, most of the carts are not pulled by horses, but by cows and donkeys.

Although this kind of carriage is simple, it is very good in that era. Anyone who can afford such a carriage can be considered a wealthy man.

The second type is a horse-drawn carriage with a simple shed. This type of carriage is usually used by small landowners.

The more high-end ones are the ones in front of you. The carport is wrapped in silk cloth and there are interior decorations inside. They are relatively luxurious. Only the wealthy families in the county can afford them.

Of course there are things that are even more expensive, but that is beyond Chen Jie's reach now.

What is in front of you is a high-end carriage with an interior decoration, and the carriage is also pulled by a horse. Although it is a very low-quality horse, it is still a horse, not a donkey, and it is a symbol of status.

At this time Feng Xuan said: "Four joys!"

Feng Xuan shouted, and a clever little brother from the fishing gang followed him.

"uncle."

Feng Xuan said: "This is the fifth child that the master wants to take in. He is called Master Wu."

"Fifth Master."

Si Xi called out very respectfully. It was the first time that Chen Jie was called "Master" and he was a little uncomfortable.

Feng Xuan said: "You will get used to it after listening to it for a while. We are the adopted sons of our adopted father. With a higher status, the name we are addressed to will naturally change. You should get used to it in advance."

Chen Jie said: "Yes, big brother."

Hearing this, Feng Xuan patted Chen Jie on the shoulder and said, "Excuse me, we are brothers. Let's be closer from now on."

As they were talking, Peng Shizhong came over and everyone saluted.

Peng Shizhong looked at Chen Jie and said, "Jiu Si, have you settled down at home?"

"Settled in."

"Well, that's good. Feng Xuan, you are responsible for taking care of Dian Jiusi."

"It's my godfather, I know."

Feng Xuan responded. At this time, Zheng Chuan followed Peng Shizhong away with an expressionless face, and stopped beside Chen Jie.

Chen Jie was stunned and Zheng Chuan glanced at him.

Without saying a word, he turned around and followed Peng Shizhong away.

However, this walking and stopping showed an attitude, which put a lot of pressure on Chen Jie.

Zheng Chuan left, and Feng Xuan said, "Don't worry about him. He is used to being domineering. There is no way his foster father will spoil him. But it doesn't matter. If he causes trouble for you in the future, you can find your elder brother and he will help you."

Chen Jie clasped his fists and said, “Thank you, brother.”

At this time Feng Xuan said: "Okay, Sixi, from now on, follow Jiusi and be responsible for driving the carriage."

After hearing this, Si Xi said, "Don't worry, sir. We will definitely send Fifth Master and his family to the city safely."

"Well, Jiu Si, Si Xi is smart. Let him follow you for the time being. You can tell him if you need anything. We can talk about other things when we get to the city."

After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Thank you for your care, big brother."

"It should."

After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "You guys go, I'll see you at the town entrance in half an hour."

"it is good."

Chen Jie nodded, and immediately followed Si Xi and said, "Fifth Master, please get in the car."

Chen Jie followed Si Xi to the front of the carriage. Si Xi reached out to help Chen Jie take down the small stool for getting on the carriage, then he opened the curtain of the sedan chair, took the long whip and waved it, saying, "Fifth Master, it's done, let's go."

drive!
The car started moving immediately.

Watching the carriage leaving, a man slowly came to Feng Xuan's side and said, "Sir, he's just a newcomer, is it really necessary to honor him like this? Even Si Xi has been sent over."

Feng Xuan laughed and said, "This Chen Jiusi is not an ordinary person. My godfather admires him very much, and he has great potential. More importantly, Zheng Chuan has a grudge against him. This is the young man we need most right now."

"People like this are best driven. If we win them over, they will be the best helpers to deal with Zheng Chuan in the future, so a carriage is nothing."

Feng Xuan had a smile on his face, but there was a dark light flashing in his eyes.
