Daomu Biji Volume 8 Chapter 9

Everyone's position was messed up. The painstaking order Pan Zi had arranged for me had been completely messed up during the chaos just now.  I was already in the act of throwing the book, but now I abruptly stopped and slammed it violently on the table.

Xiao Hua gave me a look and his face changed.  He knew it was bad, because the action came to a standstill.

If I didn't speak before, smashed Pan Zi's head in, dropped the account book, and left immediately, others would think that I didn't speak because I was extremely depressed.

But now I stood up and dropped the book on the table. This was usually the precursor of speaking, and if I didn't talk like this, others would immediately find it strange.

What to do?  My mind went haywire. Looking at the people below who were eagerly looking at me and waiting for me to say something, I could only try my best not to speak.  I thought, maybe things will work out if I turned around and left immediately, because others would think I suddenly had a stomachache.

At the brink of revealing the truth and having this farce collapse, and driven by the anxious inertia, I suddenly shouted out a sentence: “None of them are good!  Get out!”

I tried to change my voice, but it was extremely hoa.r.s.e and ugly, and didn't even sound like a human being.

Everyone looked at me dumbfounded, even Xiao Hua. Obviously he didn't know how to react to this scene.

The whole room was quiet for a long time and the atmosphere was very awkward. Xiao Hua finally reluctantly said, “Didn't you hear what Master Three said?  Do you want him to say it again? “

These people looked at each other and began to loosen. Obviously they felt it was very strange, but they were still ready to leave.

I really wanted to slap myself in the mouth. I thought that it was all over, I had screwed up. After preparing for such a long time, I still f.u.c.ked up. I'm a f.u.c.king idiot.

At this moment, suddenly there were a series of car horns outside the window. There were more than a dozen cars, and suddenly a whistle sounded at the same time.

The fishmonger suddenly smiled, stopped, and said to me, “Master Three, Lao Qiu is here.”

Xiao Hua went to the window, hooked the curtain, and looked down. He glanced coldly at the fishmonger and bowed his head in my ear and said, “Not good, get ready to go. They are all w.a.n.g Ba Qiu's people below.”

The fishmonger continued to be kind to others: “Everyone, those who don't want to be with Master Three should leave now. We'll still have business dealings in the future. Those who want to be with Master Three may as well stay and watch the show.”  He turned to me, “Master Three, I wasn't talking to you. You don't have many dogs like Pan Zi, and if he dies, you won't have anyone to look after things.  Now, if you have anything else to say, we don't think your voice is too bad.”

The others looked at each other. At this time, some of their men came up from the outside and whispered in their ears. Soon, everyone began to leave.  Obviously, they all got the news, and all of a sudden there was only Lao Liu and the middle-aged woman facing us in the room.

Xiao Hua was calm and said, “Lao Liu, how dare you do such a thing in front of so many colleagues.”

“In this line of work, they are all in it for the money and have no feelings for Master Three.”  The fishmonger said, “I know very well what's going on with Master Three. I can only blame myself for making such a mistake when I got into this mess.  If there's a big fire in this teahouse later today, an era will pa.s.s and these people will still be my brothers tomorrow. No one will mention what happened today. Do you believe it or not? “

“You didn't let me go, do you want to kill me too?”  Xiao Hua laughed.

“I didn't want to, however, you didn't handle Granny Huo's affairs!  If something happened to you, don't say the Huo family is unhappy.  But don't worry, Miss Xiuxiu, I will send you back to the Huos.”

Xiao Hua's face changed, and Xiuxiu was surprised. “Lao Liu, did my two brothers say anything to you?”

“Go back and ask them yourself.”  The fishmonger said, “However, if you think about it, where else would we get so much courage?  We're not experts in such things as playing with knives, but you Huos have talent.”

Xiao Hua and I looked each other in the eye and felt very surprised.  I really didn't expect that there was such a force behind all this.

It seems that neither of Xiuxiu's two brothers are pushovers. They even conspired with w.a.n.g Ba Qiu to swallow Uncle Three's territory, and may even want to swallow Xiao Hua's territory.

“Then why do you think I'll submit?”  Xiao Hua sighed and his face darkened. He didn't have the playful expression he wore before.

“What makes you think you won't? Master Hua, you don't have Master Zhong's skills, and at present, there are too many people outside. They will come up in half a minute at most. It's useless for you to call the police now. “

“Do you have to be able to fight?”  Xiao Hua said, “Do you think you can really kill Master Three?”

The fishmonger looked at Xiao Hua with a sneer: “Maybe by this time, you can fly?”

“Even if you kill us all, you can't kill Master Three.”  Xiao Hua laughed.

“What do you mean?”

“Because Master Three isn't here at all.”  Xiao Hua said.

I didn't know what Xiao Hua wanted to do, but then I knew we had to take risks, and things were already extremely bad for us.

Xiao Hua turned to me: “Dear, say h.e.l.lo in your own voice.”

I moved my throat and said in my own voice, “Master, I offended you just now. I didn't perform well. Don't mind it.”

The fishmonger and the middle-aged woman suddenly turned pale: “Who are you?  What is this voice? “

“I'm a little actor under Master Hua.”  I said.

Xiao Hua said, “The Mystic Nine has left behind a lot of craftsmans.h.i.+p. Do you country b.u.mpkins understand it?”

Outside was the sound of w.a.n.g Ba Qiu leading people up the stairs, and my back was a little itchy.

“Impossible, how could it be so similar?”  The fishmonger shook his head repeatedly.

“Don't believe it?  Then let them have a look." Xiao Hua said.

I thought to myself, do you want me to tear off the mask?  When I thought about it, I was afraid it wouldn't be so easy to tear, and it wasn't a good thing to let them find out that I was Wu Xie, so I steeled my heart and took off my coat.

My figure was very different from Uncle Three's.  It was easy to see that Uncle Three was dark and strong all year round, and he and I were also vastly different in age. The fishmonger's face became even uglier when I took off my clothes.

“Where is the real Master Three?”  The middle-aged woman turned blue.

“Now that w.a.n.g Ba Qiu is out in full force, is there anyone watching your old shop?”  Xiao Hua said, “You should know what kind of personality Master Three has.  After all you've done these past few months, you think he'll feel at ease coming to you and asking for the account book?”

Just then, the fishmonger's phone rang and he picked it up immediately. It must have been a text message because his face immediately turned from pale to livid as he looked at it.  He said to the middle-aged woman, “d.a.m.n it, it's true! Master Three brought someone to our shop just now! Let's go! “

“Then they…” The middle-aged women pointed at us.

“It's no use killing them if Master Three doesn't die.”  The fishmonger stamped his feet. “I knew it wasn't going so well!”  With these words, they rushed out with their men.

Within a moment, they should have met w.a.n.g Ba Qiu in the corridor and we heard the fishmonger shouting, “We've been cheated! This Master Three is a fake. The real Master Three is in my shop!”

“What?” w.a.n.g Ba Qiu shouted, “What's the situation?”

“I told you the old fox wasn't so easy to handle, we were out-witted!”  The fishmonger almost yelled, his voice piercing like a eunuch.

“Go! Go back!” w.a.n.g Ba Qiu shouted, then all of them rushed down again.

Xiao Hua grinned and looked outside the curtain, listening to the noise of their retreat and the cars starting up again.

I collapsed and sat on the ground, feeling cold sweat all over me as the sound got further away. The tension just now streamed out of my pores.

Xiao Hua also seemed relieved. He lifted me from the ground and said, “That was really dangerous. Let's go.”

“What happened just now?”  I asked.

“A mask is the kind of thing that if you can have one, you can have another.”  Xiao Hua told me not to talk and continued to show me his mobile phone. “We know this industry, and never do anything without having a backup plan.”

“How?”  I mouthed.

“We'll talk about it on the way.”  He said, “There are still many things to do.”  Xiuxiu handed over the last cup of tea with a smile. I drank it all at once, lifted the curtain and went out, and quickly walked downstairs.

The people outside had already gone, and only some of the bosses' men were still huddled together.  I didn't pay attention to anyone and went straight to the car when I suddenly noticed that there was still a person standing in the crowd.

It was Uncle Three's woman standing behind the crowd and looking at me coldly.

I began to sweat again and didn't know how to react.  I said to myself, there won't be overtime.  But I saw her looking at me, and then she turned and left.

I took a deep breath and Xiao Hua had pushed me to the side of the car and let me get in.

When the car started, I looked at the girl through the window and thought she might be a big problem.  But I was too lazy to think about it right now and fatigue was coming at me like the tide.
