"Brother Sen?"
"Why, the meal will be served before I come back?" Zhou Sen walked into the restaurant with a smile and saw Axiang and Bai Yulan getting ready to finish their meal. .
Bai Yulan rolled her eyes at him: "Who knows whether you will come or not? Could it be that we are all hungry waiting for you?"
"Didn't Wu En tell you?" Zhou Sen said, "This guy is really stubborn. If you don't ask, he won't take the initiative to tell you."
"Axiang, didn't you ask?" Bai Yulan asked in a long tone.
"Ah..." Axiang was stunned. Why did you two quarrel and set fire to me?
"Don't blame Axiang. I'm hungry. Let's eat first." Zhou Sen picked up the chopsticks, took a mouthful of vegetables, put it into his mouth, and started chewing.
"Drink?"
"If you don't drink, you'll have something to do tomorrow morning."
"Oh." Bai Yulan nodded and stopped asking any more questions. Some things were difficult to discuss at the dinner table.
"Brother Sen, have some soup." Axiang filled a bowl of soup and refused to give it to Zhou Sen.
First domain name m.
"Thank you, Axiang. You can sit down and eat as well. Don't worry about us. We'll do it ourselves." Zhou Sen saw that Axiang was so busy that she hadn't even finished a bite of the meal.
Ah Xiang's cooking skills have improved rapidly. Anyway, Zhou Sen feels that the taste of this dish is almost as good as his.
Zhou Sen ate two bowls of sorghum rice and felt almost seventy percent full, so he stopped eating. There was no particularly intense consumption. Eating less is good for your health.
A cigarette after a meal makes you feel as happy as a god. (Serious reminder: This is wrong behavior and cannot be learned)
"Su Wenqing set a trap for me. I want to come back but not be indecent. If I don't give him some color, he won't stop."
"Is he going to deal with you?" Bai Yulan frowned slightly.
"Um."
"What do you need me to do?" Bai Yulan asked.
"No need, I have already found a helper, the second eldest son of Qin Laoqi's family. Anyway, their two families are rivals, so if you don't use it, it will be in vain." Zhou Sen said.
"Qin Lang is a good person and he obeys the rules. Otherwise, Taipingqiao Gambling House would not be one of the best casinos in Bingcheng. He is just young and not stable enough." Bai Yulan nodded.
"I'm just telling you so that you don't worry."
"Is it dangerous?"
"A little bit, but Su Wenqing probably won't kill me, otherwise, he himself will be in trouble." Zhou Sen frowned slightly and said.
"Su Wenqing is not what you see now. Before he became successful in Bingcheng, he killed without blinking an eye. Otherwise, why would he be able to fight with Qin Laoqi and compete for the position of president of the General Chamber of Commerce? "Bai Yulan reminded.
Zhou Sen nodded. No man could bear this "hate of seizing his wife". Su Wenqing might really kill him.
It's just that he doesn't know that the consequences of doing so are something he can't bear.
But you really have to be careful, don't capsize in the gutter and risk your life, that would be ridiculous.
"Yu Lan, your ancestor was a military general in the former Qing Dynasty. Do you have any treasures that can save your life on the battlefield?" Zhou Sen asked.
Bai Yulan thought for a moment and nodded: "There is one thing, a piece of fine steel lock inner armor left by my father. It was given by my ancestor after he made great achievements in the expedition to Gul'dan with the army. It is invulnerable to weapons and bullets, and is invulnerable to water and fire. But these are all aimed at cold weapons, and today’s guns and artillery are of little use.”
"It doesn't matter if it can block cold weapons, give it to me to try?" Zhou Sen immediately became energetic after hearing this. The more life-saving things you have, the better.
It's a pity that I don't have a body armor, otherwise I would have put it on long ago.
"Wait a moment." Bai Yulan stood up and went back to the room.
After a while, she took out a yellow silk wrapper and held it in her hand. It looked quite substantial.
Zhou Sen took it with both hands, and it sank violently. Hey, hey, it must have weighed at least seven or eight kilograms. It seemed that the chainmail inner armor must be extraordinary.
Zhou Sen put it on the desk and opened the bag. A piece of steel inner armor with a dark color appeared in front of him.
"The inner armor is made of fine steel. With the technology at that time, it was not easy to make such an inner armor. Even now, its value is immeasurable." Bai Yulan introduced.
"In total, isn't this inner armor more than two hundred years old?" Zhou Sen said in surprise, "It's a cultural relic."
"My family is in dilapidation and I don't want to buy this inner armor. This is the only thing left by my ancestors and unworthy descendants." Bai Yulan said sadly.
"Then give him to me..."
"Who said it was for you? This is what I left to my son. It's a family heirloom. Now I'm just lending it to you to wear." Bai Yulan glared at Zhou Sen.
"What if it gets damaged when I wear it?"
"If it breaks, you just have to pay for it."
Just pay it. At the worst, I'll just pay you one of your sons...
"I'll try it to see if it fits." Zhou Sen took off his jacket and the clothes underneath, leaving only his shirt, and picked up his inner armor.
This inner armor is indeed very heavy. Although it is only a vest style, it basically covers the important parts of the shoulders. The edges are also hemmed, making it very comfortable to the touch.
Seven or eight kilograms of weight is nothing to a general, especially something that can save his life at critical moments.
But for Zhou Sen, who has a slightly weaker body, the inner armor feels heavy as soon as he puts it on his body, as if he is carrying a yoke.
"Do you have a heart protector?" Zhou Sen put on his inner armor and walked back and forth in the house for a few steps. When he felt that he could bear it, he asked again.
"That thing is of no use, are you sure you want it?" Bai Yulan was stunned. The breast protector was not a rare item. She was born in a family of military generals and naturally she did not lack this item.
"Um."
Bai Yulan bent down, touched directly under the sofa, took out a round, pressed flat copper piece and handed it over.
"Is this a heart protector?" Zhou Sen reached out to take it and weighed it. It was very light and the copper plate was very thin, almost like a fingernail.
Zhou Sen's impression is that the breast shield has an arc shape, so that when blocking arrow shooting and chopping, there will be a squeezing force. With this buffer, it can reduce possible fatal injuries to the heart, or It is freedom from harm.
Just a piece of copper now.
The copper piece is just a copper piece. As long as it can block part of the kinetic energy of the bullet, you may be able to survive with just one life.
"Is there a rope? I'll string it up and hang it on my chest. This breast shield and the inner armor should be able to block bullets, right?"
Bai Yulan stretched out her smooth onion-like fingers and touched her forehead. How greedy is this guy Zhou Sen?
She did as she was told and found a rope for him.
"Okay, with these two things, I won't be afraid tomorrow." Zhou Sen said with great satisfaction. He also worked hard for his "greedy for life and fear of death" character.
…
"How many people have you arranged?"
Early the next morning, Zhou Sen made an appointment with Qin Lang, and the two of them had breakfast at Renyi Pavilion.
Qin Lang stretched out two fingers and said: "Are twenty people enough?"
"There are less, forty people are needed." Zhou Sen said.
"Do you want that much?"
"There's no harm in bringing more. Don't you have enough people under your command?" Zhou Sen asked, "If not, can I arrange it?"
"Enough is enough. Anyway, there are not many guests in the casino at the moment. It's not a big problem to temporarily remove some people." Qin Lang thought for a moment and nodded.
"Where are the weapons?"
"Machetes, sticks, things like that."
"No gun?"
"Brother, we are not you and can legally carry guns." Qin Lang really wanted to punch Zhou Sen in the face that deserved a punch.
"That is to say, you have guns, right?" Zhou Sen said, "Try to use them as much as possible. It's best if you don't use them. What if you use them?"
"How much hatred does Su Wenqing have against you? Does he really want to kill you?" Qin Lang almost choked on a mouthful of steamed mutton dumplings, and his face turned red.
"It's hard to say. You must be on guard against others. Su Wenqing has been fighting with your father for so many years. Don't you know who he is?" Zhou Sen asked in return.
"This guy is indeed a ruthless person. I heard that if this old horse was alive, he would never have a chance with Su Wenqing. He only came up after the old horse died. At the beginning, he shouted "Brother Ma in front, Brother Ma behind" several times. Year." Qin Lang said.
"Is there such a thing?"
"You don't know." Qin Lang was stunned.
"Why should I know?"
"Yes, you and we are not on the same path. It is normal not to understand this. You are right to remind us. We really have to be more careful with Su Wenqing." Qin Lang nodded.
"Go quickly, I have an appointment to meet at nine o'clock."
…
city park.
Zhou Sen appeared in Xiaonanyuan wearing a black woolen coat, a hat and a gray towel around his neck.
The address "Su Yun" wrote in the letter to meet was naturally not at the entrance of the garden. Although there were not as many people here as usual, people still passed by from time to time.
If you really want to make a plan, you should at least find a place where there are not many people at the moment.
Every winter in Bingcheng, missing persons are reported, suspected of being murdered, but never found. Finally, when spring comes, the bodies are discovered. Some are not buried at all. They are killed and thrown directly into the snow. After covering it again, no one came, and they only discovered it after the snow melted.
Walking along the road for about ten minutes, Zhou Sen almost arrived at the meeting place. Zhou Sen stopped and looked around. Except for the woods and the unswept snow in the woods, he saw no one.
I looked at my watch and saw that the time was almost up.
Zhou Sen saw a bench buried in snow on the side of the road for people to rest. He walked over and cleared the snow away with his hands.
After doing all this, he panted slightly and sat down to rest for a while.
Not long after, he heard the sound of footsteps, which was the sound of shoes on the snow. He stood up and looked towards the road he came from.
A slender figure moved towards him.
That outfit was indeed exactly the same as the Su Yun he saw. Could it be that he had made a wrong judgment? No, this was obviously not the smell of Su Yun!
Zhou Sen immediately became vigilant, but still walked towards the man: "Su Yun."
"Su Yun" seemed to hear it, but he didn't make a sound. He just waved to him, with his scarf covering half of his face.
At this time, five men in trench coats appeared behind Zhou Sen, and they were approaching him quickly and quietly.
At this time, Zhou Sen walked towards "Su Yun" without realizing it, with a false expression of "joy" on his face.
