Lu Jing thought about it. He and Xia Huai would have to rely on this paper frog to guide them in the future. If they were seen again, they would have to find a way to lie, and they might not be able to get through it smoothly.
But if he was with this group of people from the Heroes Club, others would probably just think he was playing some trick, which would save him a lot of trouble.
So when Mr. Bai took the initiative to invite, Lu Jing nodded and said, "Then let's come together."
"That's very good." Mr. Bai was overjoyed. He led the way and led the two of them to a passenger ship at the pier.
At this time, there were already many people sitting in the cabin.
There is a storyteller, a young lady who sings Beijing lyrics, a sumo wrestler who is so strong that he can stand up to three people, an old man with a monkey, two chess players who are playing chess, and a man holding a wooden stick. Hako is closing his eyes and concentrating. He is a tall man who doesn’t know what he is doing.
Mr. Bai clapped his hands, attracting the attention of everyone in the cabin, and then pointed at Lu Jing and Xia Huai and said, "Everyone, come and meet new friends. This is little brother Lu and his..."
"Wife." Xia Huai bit her mouth and said.
"My wife, Mrs. Xia, they are good at color tricks, especially paper puppetry, which is really eye-opening."
"Paper Man Technique?" The man holding the wooden box suddenly opened his eyes and sneered, "How eye-opening is it?"
"Old Chen," Mr. Bai frowned, "can't you be more polite to your guests? We all go to the world to beg for food. Shouldn't we help each other when we go out?"
"I didn't say I wouldn't help them, I'm just a little curious about how powerful this eye-opening paper figurine technique is." The man holding the wooden box said with a smile.
At this time, the old man Sanle with the monkey suddenly said, "Old Chen, I remember that the paper puppet technique is also your specialty."
"It's so-so. Anyway, in the past month in the capital, all the seats where I performed were always packed, and until we left, no one could see through my tricks. Oh, by the way..."
The man holding the wooden box paused and continued, "There were a few unconvinced actors who came to challenge me, but unfortunately they all ran away in despair in the end, hahaha... Before I came to Tianfu, I still I’ve heard people boast about how great the colorful show here is, with numerous masters emerging, hidden dragons and crouching tigers, but now it’s nothing more than that.”
When Lu Jing heard this, he couldn't help but look at the man holding the wooden box a few more times.
It's not that the other party's arrogant attitude aroused the anger in his heart, he was just curious.
Putting aside those top brothels, this was the first time Lu Jing had met an entertainment star in this era, and he was also an entertainment star with box office appeal, which felt quite strange.
As for the other party's provocation, Lu Jing didn't take it to heart at all.
If Cai Xi is good, then he is good. He and Xia Huai are not really in this business, so of course they won't be stimulated.
On the contrary, Mr. Bai who had brought them here couldn't stand it anymore and shouted, "Chen Tong, you must know that there are mountains outside the mountains and there are people outside the people. It's better not to say too much about some things."
Chen Tong didn't take it seriously, "Second Master Bai, I, Chen Tong, have a bad temper and can't speak well. It's better for you to socialize and win people's hearts, so you took the position at the head of this group of heroes.
"But no matter how you say it, it's better than some people cheating."
He deliberately said the words ostentation and deception very loudly, as if he was afraid that others would not hear.
Reconnecting what he said before, Lu Jing finally understood why Mr. Bai was so caring and enthusiastic towards them when they were at the ferry, and where did Chen Tong's hostility towards them come from? .
Obviously where there are people there is fighting.
Even in a low-level gang like the Heroes' Guild, a group formed to keep each other warm, there are still dissensions.
This guy named Chen Tong seemed to have competed with Mr. Bai who brought them on board for the position of leader of the Heroes Association, but Chen Tong had a bad temper and unfortunately lost in the end.
However, because of his excellent business ability, Mr. Bai, who became the leader of the association, had nothing to do with him and even had to provide for him.
Qunying will travel around performing arts to make money, and he also needs to rely on Chen Tong to control the scene and gain popularity.
Until Mr. Bai met Lu Jing and Xia Huai, after seeing their paper figures, he immediately came up to talk and warmly invited them to board the boat. He must have had the intention of letting them replace Chen Tong as the pillar. .
Chen Tong saw through this and started talking rudely to Lu Jing and Xia Huai.
Of course it would be best if the two of them could be choked away, but even if they couldn't be choked away, it would be good to severely dampen the limelight of Lu Jing and Xia Huai and once again prove to everyone in the group of heroes who is the most indispensable person.
Thinking of this, Lu Jing knew that even if he was willing to take a step back, it would be useless.
He was not interested in the internal fighting in the group of heroes, but since he and Xia Huai were brought aboard by Mr. Bai, the people on the boat would naturally regard him and Xia Huai as Mr. Bai's people by default.
"You!" Mr. Bai was furious when he heard this. However, even though he tried for a long time, he couldn't say anything serious.
The other people on the boat had obviously known about the conflict between Bai and Chen for a long time. When they saw this, most of them lowered their heads and closed their mouths, keeping silent in a tacit understanding, making it clear that they did not want to wade into this muddy water.
Only the young lady who sang Beijing lyrics hesitated and persuaded, "Brother Chen, this visitor is a guest. Is there anything you can't tell Mr. Bai in private?"
"Xiao Lian, you don't know that Bai Huishou is soft-hearted and likes to make friends. Aren't I also afraid that he will be deceived?" Chen Tong said in a strange tone.
As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, Lu Jing said, "Let's have a competition."
"What?" Chen Tong was stunned, suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears.
"In a competition, as long as we beat you, it will prove that we have real materials." Lu Jing said.
"Are you sure you want to compete with me?"
"Otherwise you'll keep talking all the way, right, so let's have a competition so that my ears can calm down." Lu Jing shrugged.
"Okay, you asked for this." Chen Tong said solemnly, "It's no trick."
"casual."
"Then let's do the Paper Man Technique. Since Chairman Bai said that your Paper Man Technique is eye-opening, let's give Chen a try." Chen Tong seemed very confident and was ready to challenge Lu Jing and the others' unique skills. .
Because only in this way, after defeating this young couple, can he make Mr. Bai lose his face.
"Okay." Lu Jing looked a little strange after hearing his words.
"Do you need to prepare in advance?" Chen Tong asked again.
"No, what about you?"
"I don't need to," Chen Tong said directly, not wanting to be outdone, and said directly, "Then I'll show off my shame first."
After speaking, he opened the wooden box on his lap.
