When Bai Gu crossed the threshold of Old Liu Tou's house, he felt that there was something different about Old Liu Tou.
Looking into the inner room, Bai Guoling smiled happily and said, "Brother Peng, you're awake!"
A tall figure was leaning on the wooden bed, his left hand casually resting on his bent left knee, and his left and right legs resting naturally on the side. The bandages on his body were wrapped around and around, but they still couldn't cover the powerful muscles.
Who else could it be if it wasn’t Brother Peng?
However, something was not right with Brother Peng at this time.
Brother Peng just sat on the wooden bed, his eyes deep, his mouth tightly pursed, not knowing what he was thinking.
When he heard Bai Gu calling him, he just raised his head and glanced at Bai Gu, then lowered his head and returned to his original state.
"Grandpa Liu, what happened to Brother Peng?" Seeing this, Bai Gu couldn't help but panic.
Brother Peng, he must have been beaten stupid, right?
Old Liu Tou sat on the chair, opened the oil paper bag Bai Gu brought, broke off a piece of rice and date cake, and ate it happily.
Bai Gu looked at Old Liu Tou who was eating pastries, and then at Brother Peng who was wandering away, and felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart.
He ran to the table and shouted angrily at Old Liu Tou: "Brother Peng, what's going on? Please tell me! I'm so anxious! If you don't tell me, I will..."
"That's it?" Old Liu Tou looked indifferent and continued to chew the rice and date cake in his mouth.
"I will, I will..." Bai Gu took the oiled paper bag to the other side of the table, "You are not allowed to eat rice date cake!"
Old Liu was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly and said: "If you don't want to eat, then I won't eat. I don't lack this bite."
"You...!" Bai Gu was extremely angry, pointing at Lao Liutou and speechless.
"Xiao Bai! Don't be disrespectful to Mr. Liu!" Brother Peng, who was leaning on the wooden bed, suddenly spoke.
Bai Gu suddenly spoke, and Brother Peng, who had been wandering in his mind, had come to his senses and stared at him sternly.
Bai Gu felt guilty and shrank his neck.
Old Liu Tou threw the small wooden hammer in his hand towards Brother Peng, "Who taught you to talk like this! I apologize for scaring Xiaobai!"
"Mr. Liu, just spoil Xiaobai like this, you will spoil him." Brother Peng took the small wooden hammer with a look of helplessness and placed it on the wooden bed.
"Bring it over." Old Liu Tou ignored Brother Peng's words, just raised his chin and lit the wooden hammer.
Brother Peng had no choice but to pick up the wooden hammer, walk to the table and hand it to Old Liu Tou before sitting down.
"Brother Peng, what happened? Why are you injured like this?" Bai Gu couldn't wait to ask as soon as Brother Peng sat down.
"We had a fight with someone, that's all." Brother Peng looked at the bag of pastries in front of him, frowned, and quickly pushed it towards Old Liu.
Old Liu Tou liked what he heard and broke off another piece of rice and date cake.
"There are many people on the other side?" Bai Gu was puzzled. Brother Peng is so powerful, but there are still people who can hurt him?
Unless it's a group fight.
"No, there is a person opposite." Brother Peng's eyes became dark again, as if he saw that person again.
"One?" Bai Gu was stunned.
He saw that Brother Peng had never lost in a fight against two, and even after the beating, there were no bruises on his body.
Now only one person can beat Brother Peng like this, what a powerful person he must be!
In other words, a monster.
Brother Peng nodded, then sighed, with a heavy tone, and dropped a bombshell that surprised Bai Gu even more, "A Guang is dead."
"Ah?" Bai Gu was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted and his eyes widened in disbelief, "Brother Aguang is dead?! How is that possible?!"
Old Liu Tou also stopped what he was doing and looked at Brother Peng.
Brother Peng didn't seem to want to say more. He rolled his throat with great difficulty and his voice was hoarse. "I buried Aguang on the hill. You can take a look when I go to burn incense for Mrs. Bai in the future."
Bai Gu's mood was also a little low, and he just responded softly.
Aguang was a warrior who entered Qianmosi in the same batch as Brother Peng. Later, Brother Peng became the team leader in charge of the Lingding Lane area. Aguang volunteered and joined Brother Peng's team. Over the past few years, the years have come and gone, and the personnel have changed. A Guang, who could have been promoted to the same team captain position as Brother Peng, refused the promotion and chose to continue to be the younger brother behind Brother Peng.
Although A Guang seems careless and heartless, he is actually kind-hearted and considerate. He often helps Brother Peng solve many problems in the team and local areas. People on the streets also have a good impression of A Guang.
Brother Peng sees everything A Guang does. A Guang is the only one who has stayed with him all these years. He no longer regards A Guang as his younger brother, but as a relative and brother like Bai Gu.
Brother Peng slowly closed his eyes, and his mind kept flashing back to scenes of him and A Guang getting along, some laughing, some playing, some hugging each other and crying, some breaking up on bad terms...
Until Aguang died in front of him.
He just watched A Guang fall in a pool of blood, but he was powerless to rescue him.
Brother Peng slammed his palm on the table in front of him, and the table instantly fell into pieces and became a pile of broken wood.
Bai Gu was startled by Brother Peng's sudden movement and immediately got up and hid behind Lao Liutou.
Old Liu Tou, with quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed the oil paper bag and put it in his arms. He broke off a small piece of rice and date cake and handed it to Bai Gu, telling him not to worry too much. Then he broke off another piece and threw it into his mouth, saying calmly, "Remember to pay for the table."
Brother Peng's eyes were red and his tone was dull, "Okay, Mr. Liu."
Bai Gu felt very uncomfortable when he saw Brother Peng like this, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
"Xiaobai, you'd better be careful lately, I'm afraid someone is watching us." Brother Peng looked serious.
Bai Gu frowned, "No way, we didn't provoke anyone else..." At this point, Bai Gu reacted instantly, "Are they those children who ran away?"
Brother Peng nodded.
Bai Gu instantly clenched his hands into fists, veins bulging out, "I didn't bother those bastards, but I came to them first! Brother Peng, can you be sure which force they are?"
"I don't know." Brother Peng shook his head, "But those three gangs are not big. Normally, they cannot afford to hire such people. The most likely one is that big family."
Bai Gu was silent for a moment, and then asked: "Brother Peng, how strong is the person you are fighting against? If the three gangs come together, they should be able to invite one, right?"
Brother Peng chuckled and said, "It's impossible. Unless those three gangs are willing to drain their family wealth and come together, they can hire someone like that. But just for three children, it's impossible even if you think about it."
Bai Gu was even more confused, "Brother Peng, how can you be so sure? Who is that person's background?"
"That person is a cultivator." Brother Peng licked his dry lips with his tongue.
"A cultivator?!" Bai Gu was shocked.
He knew something about cultivators from Elder Wu, and he was someone who stood out among ordinary people! Just stepping into the training queue, he is already powerful, and he can easily challenge ten ordinary people with one hand.
Such people can recruit people on their own and establish a small force.
No wonder Brother Peng said it was impossible to hire those three gangs.
How can the price of hiring a cultivator to be a thug be affordable by ordinary people? What's more, it's a gang that only dominates poor areas.
The one who can send cultivators is most likely the big family.
only……
"Brother Peng, that man is a cultivator, so did you lose?" Bai Gu asked cautiously.
"No, we won." Brother Peng looked indifferent.
"That man is a cultivator, he is very powerful."
Brother Peng just smiled lightly, "Did I say I wasn't?"
