The man with the crooked eyebrows and slanted eyes who looked a little familiar quickly retracted his head into the alley when he saw Shu Guan walking towards him.
Shu Guan still walked over leisurely.
When he walked into the alley, he saw the man waiting for him in the alley.
"Are you... Mr. Shu?"
The man looked at Shu Guan hesitantly and asked uncertainly.
"Yes, I am Shu Guan."
Shu Guan still remembered him very clearly. It was this guy who wanted to tease Zhang Yadan, and eventually Meng Huibao led people to surround him, and then he met Meng Huibao.
At this time, the man saw Shu Guan nodding, his face suddenly showed excitement, and he said repeatedly:
"As expected, it's Mr. Shu. I saw you walking on the street just now. I wanted to come over and say hello, but I didn't expect those guys from the Tianhu Gang came over too, so I had to hide here first."
"What? Just now, Mr. Shu, you told the boys from the Tianhu Gang that you wanted to find our Mr. Meng?"
"Yes, I want to meet you, Master Meng."
Shu Point nodded and said.
After seemingly hesitating for two or three seconds, the man with slanted eyes gritted his teeth and said:
"Master Shu, come with me."
The man with crooked eyebrows led Shu Guan and Wang Dahu to turn left and right, walking through the alleys as dense as a spider web.
Shu Guan finally saw another side of the city.
Behind the bright streets, hidden are the sewage flowing across the street, garbage is thrown everywhere, swarms of flies are flying in the mixture of feces and rotten food, and the disgusting smell comes from the tip of the nose. Complex smell.
But the people walking in these alleys seemed oblivious to these smells. They wore tattered clothes, and their eyes were empty and numb, as if they had lost interest in everything and were just living mechanically.
By comparison, the place where the Taoyuan villagers live now really looks like a paradise in this city.
After walking for more than ten minutes, the man with crooked eyebrows and squinting eyes led Shu Guan and Wang Dahu to a house hidden deep in a remote alley.
It was a dilapidated house that seemed to be in disrepair for a long time. The walls were leaking from all directions and the roof was in tatters. It was barely worthy of being called a shelter. If it was windy or rainy, the people in the house would probably suffer.
And outside the door of this broken house, there were two big men guarding them. They looked listless and lifeless, like two bereaved dogs. When they saw the men with crooked eyes, they led Shu Guan and Wang Dahu back, and there was not much. Reaction.
Shu Guan followed the man with crooked eyebrows and squinting eyes into the house, and then he saw Meng Huibao.
Meng Huibao was lying on a bed made of tables, covered with a thin blanket, and a piece of white gauze wrapped around his head, with blood stains hidden on the gauze.
How should I put it? Although the Meng Huibao who met Shu Guan for the first time was not young, he was very energetic, spoke loudly, and looked tougher than the young man. He looked like a boss in the world. The domineering demeanor.
But Meng Huibao, who was lying on the bed at the moment, was pale and looked haggard and old by more than ten years. His eyes were lifeless and he was staring blankly at the roof. His original energy seemed to have been drained from his body. generally.
"Master Meng."
The man with crooked eyebrows and slanted eyes called out in a low voice. Meng Huibao also seemed not to hear it and was still staring at the roof in a daze.
"Master Meng, look who I met. This is Master Shu."
It wasn't until the man with the crooked eyebrows raised his voice twice more that Meng Huibao slowly turned his head, and then saw Shu Guan standing behind the crooked eyebrows.
At the beginning, his eyes were a little blank.
Then it slowly became brighter, and it seemed that he finally recognized who Shu Guan was.
Then Meng Huibao burst into tears. The former underworld boss was crying like a wronged child.
"Brother Shu, I was fucked by someone..."
Meng Huibao burst into tears.
Shu Guan was a little speechless. It seems that we have actually met once, and it was you who brought people to block me. Our friendship doesn't seem to be that good, right?
However, Shu Guan patiently listened to Meng Huibao's cry in the next few dozen minutes.
Today he came to see Meng Huibao. He originally planned to ask Meng Huibao to help arrange for Wang Dahu and the others to work on the dock. But after seeing Meng Huibao's current appearance, Shu Guan knew that the old man could no longer help him. .
But he was too embarrassed to just turn around and leave. Now that he was here, he wanted to hear what happened.
After listening to Meng Huibao's cry, things turned out to be pretty much what Shu Guan had expected. It was nothing more than the gangs fighting for territory in the arena, and this time the Black Hawk Gang became the loser. Not only was the territory robbed, The other party wanted to kill them all and take Meng Huibao's life.
According to what Meng Huibao said, the Tianhu Gang who robbed his territory was actually a small and unpopular gang on the dock. Its power and strength could not be compared with the Black Hawk Gang, which was one of the largest gangs in the area around the dock. .
But some time ago, the Tianhu Gang invited a master from nowhere, and his skills were very solid, so the power of the Tianhu Gang began to expand rapidly on the dock. In the end, even the powerful old gangs like the Black Hawk Gang were defeated by the Tianhu Gang. The gang was overturned.
"I don't know where Qiu Hu invited such a boy from. His skills are really powerful. Brother, I didn't even block a single move, but that boy grabbed me in the chest. If it weren't for several brothers fighting to the death, Help, bro, I might have been disemboweled by that kid on the spot."
Meng Huibao said with self-hate at this time:
"But the most ruthless one is Qiu Hu. I used to take good care of him. Unexpectedly, he turned against me and threatened to find me on the street. He wanted to kill me to death, and I had to hide in Such a shabby place.”
After finishing speaking, Meng Huibao took a deep breath, then looked at Shu Guan, his eyes shining with hope.
"Brother Shu, I know that your kung fu is also very good. I wonder if you can do me a favor and help me get my territory back. When the time comes, it doesn't matter how much I thank you."
Shu Guan suddenly smiled bitterly.
Let’s not talk about whether my friendship with Meng Huibao is as good as this. With my current status, how could I possibly help this old man grab territory?
Practitioners are not allowed to interfere in mortal fights, whether they are big fights in the court or fighting and killing in the rivers and lakes, it is the same.
Just like the virgin saint who was the Queen Mother of the Great China Dynasty back then.
If you dare to do it, the master may come to clean up the house.
Shu Guan shook his head at Meng Huibao apologetically, and then stood up from the bed.
"I'm sorry that I can't do anything. But I will send you some medicine tomorrow, which should be able to make your injury recover quickly."
Shu Guan said this.
Of course it won't work to help Meng Huibao grab territory, but there should be no problem in curing Meng Huibao's injury.
Immortals return to immortals, and mortals return to mortals.
But it's not that strict.
I originally came here to ask for help this time. Although the person was in trouble and it seemed that they couldn't help me, I couldn't bear to just leave like this.
Maybe this old man is not a good person, but after all, he has become like this now, and I have seen it again, so I can help him as much as possible. I will go back and ask the fifth senior brother to prepare some medicine to treat the wound. I want to use the fifth senior brother's method. , the medicine prepared can naturally heal this kind of ordinary trauma.
Shu Guan thought so and then prepared to leave.
Meng Huibao looked at him with endless disappointment. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something more, but he also understood that he was not qualified to ask for help at this moment.
"Mr. Meng, let me change your dressing."
At this time, the man with crooked eyebrows lifted the quilt covering Meng Huibao, and saw that Meng Huibao's chest was also bandaged with a piece of gauze. The man took out a box of gold medicine from under the bed, and then carefully took it out. After removing the gauze from Meng Huibao's chest, a fishy smell suddenly filled the entire room.
At this time, Shu Guan had already walked out of the door. He inadvertently looked back and saw the wound on Meng Huibao's chest.
All I could see were a few deep scratches. If they were any deeper, he might have been disemboweled by someone's hands, as Meng Huibao said.
The area around the wound had now turned a purple-black color, and strands of thick black blood were still seeping out from the wound.
Shu Guan, who was about to step out of the room, suddenly stopped.
It wasn't that Meng Huibao's miserable appearance made him change his mind.
It was because Shu Guan felt a faint but special aura from the blood seeping out of Meng Huibao's wound.
That is the breath of spiritual power.
So Shu Guan immediately turned around, walked up to Meng Huibao, looked solemn, and asked in a deep voice.
"Who was it that hurt you?"
