Gu Xiaotian led a group of people to the back kitchen. The door to the back kitchen was open. As soon as he saw Wu Erxi standing, he saw an old man in tattered clothes sitting on a pony, laughing and following him. Wu Erxi said something.
Standing in front of the kitchen door, Gu Xiaotian patted his clothes again. He had never seen the leader of the Beggars Clan, but judging from Wu Erxi's respectful attitude, if this person was not the leader of the Beggars Clan, he must be in Jinghu. It's not average, but it's better to be more respectful.
After crossing the threshold, Gu Xiaotian quickly said, "Junior Gu Xiaotian has met the senior."
Li Huaimin, who was sitting on the pony, picked up the jade bamboo stick beside him, knocked it on the ground, and then said happily: "Are you Gu Xiaotian? I've heard of it before. You're welcome to come to our Jing Lake as a guest. What are the etiquettes?" Just forget it, they are all a bunch of roughnecks and beggars, just treat me to a drink when you leave, as a sign of respect for the seniors."
Gu Xiaotian smiled awkwardly, what kind of method is this?
Qu Xiaohan crossed the threshold, looked at Li Huaimin who was riding on the pony, and smiled faintly, "Is the leader of the Beggar Clan looking like this?"
When Li Huaimin heard this voice and saw Qu Xiaohan again, he jumped up quickly, wiped his hands on his clothes again and again, then stretched out his hand and said, "Leader Qu, I have admired you for a long time!"
Qu Xiaohan did not extend her hand to shake hands with Li Huaimin, but stood next to the threshold. She was originally curious to meet him, but she must have been used to seeing Li Huaimin sloppy, and she didn't like him that much. She only admired Li Huaimin's state of mind. , nothing else.
Qu Xiaohan patted Gu Xiaotian, and then introduced: "This guy should be the leader of the Beggar Clan. He can't fool anyone with his energy. If you have anything to say, just say it."
Then, Qu Xiaohan pointed to his head and signaled that Gu Xiaotian should not let Gu Xiaotian twist around and hit the ball straight. Li Huaimin's brain couldn't understand it.
Li Huaimin also became interested and asked, "What do you mean, Leader Tingqu, do you have anything else to ask of me?"
Gu Xiaotian nodded, "When I came to Jinghu, I wanted to meet the leader of the Beggar Clan. It would be best if I could learn something."
This is already a very clear straight line, I want to see you, and then you teach me a move or two, and then I will leave.
It’s considered a trip that was not in vain.
Li Huaimin looked at Gu Xiaotian, and then he was a little surprised. He had long heard that there was a natural hegemon in the world, but he hadn't seen it yet. Fortunately, this guy stood in front of me.
However, it was useless to teach him the superficial things about the Beggar Clan, but he could not learn the real core things.
Li Huaimin shook his head and said, "If you want to learn something, I can't teach you. Your mentality is too righteous."
Gu Xiaotian asked doubtfully: "Can't you learn if you have a right mentality?"
Li Huaimin nodded in greeting.
This boy is too cautious in doing things, and he is also a little indecisive. He is not addicted to wine and sex, and he has a sincere heart. These are the things that have destined him to follow a righteous path, not the crooked paths of the Beggar Clan. .
As the leader of the Beggar Clan, Li Huaimin can be regarded as someone who has read countless people. The people who can really grasp the things of the Beggar Clan should be those who only think about living one day at a time. They also treat life casually and eat enough. A person who lives happily every day.
It sounds a bit ridiculous, but in the early days of the Beggar Gang, it was just to have enough to eat.
In order to have a full meal, I have developed so many martial arts. For those who have the right path in their hearts, it is actually impossible to learn them.
The reason why Li Huaimin appointed Wu Sangui to be the next leader of the gang was also for this reason. Needless to say, Wu Sangui's talent was that he could learn it instantly, and that kid could create his own unique skills, which was unique.
Then there is Wu Sangui's mentality. The mentality of living one day at a time is rare in this world.
People are always greedy. If they can live for one day, they will think about the next day.
Wu Sangui's mentality is different. He just wants to live for one day, and the next day's matters will be discussed the next day.
This also allowed Li Huaimin to see his original appearance in Wu Sangui. He still remembered that Li Huaimin's master told him that inheritance is a very important thing.
Love, even if you lose your life, you must find the next inheritance.
Gu Xiaotian said helplessly: "Then I only ask for one thing."
Li Huaimin nodded and said, "Tell me about it."
"Ask Jinghu to join the Four Alliances!"
As soon as these words came out, even Qu Xiaohan was a little surprised.
Let’s not talk about whether Jinghu will join the Four Alliances. Just saying these words definitely requires courage. Gu Xiaotian knows the situation in Jinghu and can say these words in this situation. Are you really not afraid that a large group of people from Jinghu will beat him out of Jinghu?
Li Huaimin frowned, thinking that this boy was quite ambitious. He wanted to improve himself and expand his power.
Moreover, it seems that Gu Xiaotian is not from the Four Leagues, so there is no need for him to do things for the Four Leagues.
The purpose of doing this is obvious. Gu Xiaotian wants to expand a force of his own.
Duan Peng also realized that the reason why Gu Xiaotian chose to visit Jinghu was not just because he was on the way, but because he wanted to have his own influence.
Perhaps it was the previous battle with the All Martial Arts Association that made Gu Xiaotian understand that the power of one or two people was too small. If he wanted to truly achieve the five-year agreement, he must have a force of his own.
Li Huaimin asked: "Why does it have to be from Jinghu?"
Gu Xiaotian said bluntly: "Because there is a Beggar Gang in Jinghu, and the Beggar Gang is what I value. As long as the seniors are willing to agree, I will find a way to convince those who oppose it, and then the disciples of the Beggar Gang will no longer be struggling for food, clothing, housing and transportation." worry."
This is not a lie. With the strength of their Gu family, it is extremely easy to keep the disciples of the Beggar Clan well fed, drunk, and clothed.
Li Huaimin was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that Gu Xiaotian was serious.
He originally thought that Gu Xiaotian was just testing their reaction, but it turned out that they seriously wanted Jinghu to belong to the Four Alliances.
Li Huaimin, who was holding the jade bamboo stick, fell silent. He took out the purple gourd from his waist and drank several sips before raising his head and saying, "I just want to ask you one last question?"
"Senior, please ask."
"Do you want our entire power in Jinghu to belong to Jinghu, or only to you?"
Without thinking, Gu Xiaotian pointed at himself and said, "It only belongs to me."
Li Huaimin chuckled, but he admired Gu Xiaotian's courage to speak.
This made him appreciate Gu Xiaotian a little.
However, appreciation is appreciation. Their Jinghu style has always been carefree and carefree. Suddenly, the entire power belongs to one person, and he is still an immature child. Even if Li Huaimin agrees, the elders and some individual people below will Not very likely to agree.
Li Huaimin, who was tapping the ground with his jade bamboo stick, suddenly laughed heartily and said: "You kid is a bit ambitious. I also know your intentions. I have lived a lifetime, and when I get old, it's time to pack up." I am happy in the sky. But I am very willing to put my treasure on you. I think it is for this reason that Leader Qu can stay with you. But Jinghu is not just for me. Jinghu, I said it doesn’t count, you I have to convince a lot of people, and you must also know Wu Sangui. You also have to persuade him. Maybe you can persuade him to take over the position of my gang leader, and he might just make the decision directly, saving a lot of trouble! "
What he said actually gave Gu Xiaotian two choices.
Either convince everyone. Only after convincing everyone will Jinghu listen to him.
Either persuade Wu Sangui. Wu Sangui's personality has always been indifferent. At best, he is free and easy, at worst, he is called a domineering rogue.
But they are two choices, but in the end they are just one choice.
That is to let Wu Sangui take over the position of gang leader.
Li Huaimin was also a selfish person. He also wanted to see whether Gu Xiaotian would persuade Wu Sangui or not.
If even Wu Sangui is willing to listen to Gu Xiaotian, then Li Huaimin can safely hand over Jinghu to Gu Xiaotian.
Gu Xiaotian bowed his hands and said, "Senior, don't worry, as long as you nod and agree, I will take care of the rest."
Li Huaimin patted his butt and stood up, leaving the jade bamboo stick behind.
Come down, "I'll lend you this jade bamboo stick for now, but I don't want you to give it back to me when I leave. As for whether you took the jade bamboo stick away in the end or left it in Wu Sangui's hands, I can’t control it anymore.”
Gu Xiaotian took the jade bamboo stick and bowed deeply.
Li Huaimin carried the purple gourd and walked to the door. Then he remembered something and turned around and said, "Come see me again before you leave. I hope you came to ask for this purple gourd from me, not to retaliate."
Wu Erxi was dazed on the sidelines. In fact, he really wanted to let Jinghu belong to the same family.
The reason why I opened such a black shop is because I have to go out to play on weekdays. Unfortunately, there are many beggars in Jinghu, so I opened a black shop to steal the money of some young tourists.
He is a layman at heart, as long as he has money.
After Li Huaimin left, Gu Xiaotian patted Wu Erxi, who was lost in thought, and asked, "You should know which characters in Jinghu need to be persuaded, right?"
Wu Erxi hurriedly said politely: "I know, I know, I will give you a list early tomorrow morning."
Gu Xiaotian nodded, "Trouble."
Then, he went upstairs with the jade bamboo stick.
...
Upstairs, Wu Sangui was still asleep and was leaning on the door panel to eavesdrop. By coincidence, Gu Xiaotian opened the door and bumped into him.
Gu Xiaotian said amusedly: "You want to hear it so much, why didn't you just go down and listen?"
Wu Sangui pretended to be calm and said: "I'm too lazy to see that old man. He wants me to take over the position of that bullshit gang leader all the time. It's very annoying."
Suddenly, Wu Sangui looked at the jade bamboo stick and asked curiously: "How did you trick this old man into getting all the jade bamboo sticks?"
Gu Xiaotian looked at the jade bamboo stick in his hand and put it on the table and said, "It's not for me, it's for you."
Looking at the jade bamboo stick, Wu Sangui's eyes shone a little.
In fact, in his heart, the weight of this jade bamboo stick is not light.
When Wu Sangui was still young and followed Li Huaimin, he was very interested in the jade bamboo stick and said that he wanted Li Huaimin to teach him the stick technique.
After all, the boxing techniques you keep using will never bring you any success. Even if you become more skilled in boxing, you still only have one pair of punches.
Every time, Li Huaimin just smiled and told Wu Sangui that when he had mastered his boxing skills, he would naturally be able to use a stick when he picked up the stick.
For so many years, Wu Sangui has not practiced stick skills. The reason is that he believes that his boxing skills have not yet reached perfection.
However, Wu Sangui was still a bit arrogant in his heart, "No, no, you can return it to him tomorrow and tell him that I can't take over the Beggar Clan."
Gu Xiaotian didn't care, took off his shoes and lay on the bed.
There are some important things to do tomorrow, so I need to recharge my batteries.
Jinghu has such a tough folk custom. If you really want to take action, you will naturally need to rest more.
Only Wu Sangui silently lit the candle, reaching out to the jade bamboo stick countless times but retracting it again.
Gu Xiaotian lay on the bed and said calmly: "Take it if you want. Sometimes I really don't know. What are you worried about for such a free and easy person?"
Wu Sangui blew out the candle and said disdainfully: "You know nothing."
Gu Xiaotian just smiled slightly while lying on the bed, turned around, and did not answer.
Wu Sangui sighed, took off his shoes and lay on the bed, but could not fall asleep for a long time.
