Ma Chu quickly said: "Fenghuang, didn't you see that Miss Gao was injured? How can she still participate in the operation? It should be enough for me, you, Chunhua, and Qiushi to go!"
Gao Dan said to Ma Chu: "Mr. Ma, don't be anxious. Miss Phoenix is right. If I don't go, I'm afraid I won't be able to scare them. I will take the elixir later, and as long as I rest for a night, I can recover some skills and scare the other party." It should still be possible.”
Ma Chu knew that Gao Dan's words made sense, so he did not continue to object. Phoenix asked in surprise: "What kind of miraculous medicine has such effects?"
Gao Dan said: "This is the royal family's secret healing elixir. An injured person only needs to take one pill and he will recover in a few days. It has extraordinary effects."
Fenghuang was overjoyed and said: "Then we will go to Xiaoxiangmen tomorrow. The young lady also ordered people to lead soldiers to accompany us secretly. It is normal for us to go to Xiaoxiangmen and bring their master back for questioning. After all, Chen Fang belongs to Xiaoxiangmen. People. If they dare to resist, it means they have already planned and will catch them all in one fell swoop. Otherwise, if they control their sect master first, they will be leaderless and will not be able to make a big splash for the time being." Seeing her careful planning, Gao Dan nodded in agreement.
Early the next morning, Gao Dan came to the Xiaoxiangmen main altar surrounded by everyone. But there was no one inside, and the people from Xiaoxiang Gate had disappeared. Gao Dan hurriedly ordered and searched carefully, but found nothing.
Gao Dan had no choice but to take everyone back to the government office. Fenghuang believed that Li Xinglan must have absconded out of fear of crime, and now he could only issue a wanted order. Gao Dan nodded in agreement and immediately ordered a wanted order to be issued. But after more than ten days, there was no news at all.
Ma Chu thought that his master wanted him to rush to Luoyang as soon as possible to help Feiyun. Ma Chu saw that there was no point in staying here, so he bid farewell to Gao Dan.
Gao Dan naturally had no reason to keep Ma Chu, so he had no choice but to agree. Although Fenghuang also wanted to follow Ma Chu, Ma Chu asked her to stay and continue to help Gao Dan. If Fenghuang handles the situation here, Ma Chu asks her to go to the capital to find him. Phoenix had no choice but to agree.
Ma Chu told his story in detail, and only then did Feiyun know the cause and effect. Feiyun was overjoyed, he needed someone to help him. He quickly asked Ma Chu to rest first, and he would take Ma Chu to get familiar with the capital in a few days.
A few days later, Feiyun took Ma Chu out of the hospital, accompanied by Tianxiang and three others. The five of them walked on the street for a while, and Liangchen suddenly called out: "Brother, why don't we go try delicious food and enjoy wonderful singing and dancing? Let Senior Brother Ma experience it!"
Feiyun nodded slightly and said: "It seems that you are greedy! Whichever restaurant you like, we will go in. Do you always listen to you?" Liangchen thought for a while and said: "They still go to sing and dance. We are familiar with the restaurant, how about it?" Feiyun nodded in agreement.
The five of them soon arrived at the charming singing and dancing restaurant. As soon as they entered, Ruhua came over to greet them. Feiyun cupped his hands and said, "Girl Ruhua, you're done!"
Ma Chu followed Feiyun and took a closer look. He saw that it was extremely spacious inside, with at least forty or fifty dining tables. It was dinner time and the tables were packed. There is also a platform under the opposite wall, with a beautiful girl dancing on it, and next to it are several beautiful girls playing flutes and pianos. Pictures of different colors are hung on the walls around the lobby, and lanterns and hydrangeas of various colors are hung in the air.
Ruhua said: "Young Master Lin, the restaurant has private rooms, do you need them? Miss is busy now, I will inform her later."
Feiyun shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter, we are just passing by, nothing happened. You can just find us a seat facing the street in the lobby!"
Ruhua glanced at it and said, "This way, please!" Then she took Feiyun and the other five people to an empty table near the street, invited them to sit down, and then asked, "What do you want to eat?"
Liangchen said immediately: "Ruhua, you know me. First serve five or six portions of the restaurant's most famous dishes, and then a bottle of fine wine. We'll talk about the rest later!" Ruhua nodded in agreement, turned and left.
After a while, the wine and food were served, and Liangchen was not polite and started gobbling it up immediately. Seeing how greedy she was, Meimei couldn't help but tease her a few words. Feiyun stopped the beautiful scenery and told her to eat quickly too. The five of them walked around for a long time, and the five of them were also a little tired. Mei Mei has always been obedient, so she won't say much. The five of them ate while enjoying the street scenery outside the window and the singing and dancing inside.
At this moment, a group of people stood up unsteadily and walked out. A waiter ran over, stopped them and said, "Sir, you haven't settled the bill yet!" A strong man stared drunkenly and shouted, "What's the bill? Do you know who we are? We can come to your restaurant to have a drink." It's your honor to play, but you still dare to ask us for money? Get out of here!" After saying that, he stretched out his hand and pushed the guy backwards. The waiter staggered and knocked over the two tables behind him. The guests at the tables stood up in surprise and fled away.
When the guests in the lobby saw someone making trouble, they all got up and hid in panic. Seeing this, Mei Mei suddenly got up and rushed over. Liangchen quickly grabbed her and said, "Third sister, don't worry, let's take a look first and then talk!"
Feiyun also motioned for Meimei to sit down. Ruhua and others were not weak in martial arts, so he and others should not interfere yet. If Ruhua and others are not opponents, people like myself might as well help. Meimei saw that neither Feiyun nor Liangchen wanted her to do anything, so she had no choice but to sit down as instructed.
The group of people were about to walk out when they saw several people walking out of the restaurant and blocking their way. The leaders were a man and two girls. The five people from Feiyun took a look and saw that it was Ding Gu, Hong Rushi and Ruhua.
Ding Gu said angrily: "Who are you? You don't give me money to eat!" The strong man glanced at Ding Gu and replied: "Open your dog eyes. My young master belongs to the young boss of the gambling house in the capital. I invite you all to invite me." How dare you ask for a bill from a distinguished guest who is not here! Don't even ask, he is dining in the capital, and the restaurant needs to pay the bill!"
Ruhua immediately got angry and said: "Isn't he just a dandy from a gambling house? What's there to brag about? It's natural to pay for food. Even if Niu Ba, the boss of your gambling house, comes, there will be no exception."
When the man heard this, he said angrily: "Yellow-haired girl, how dare you call my master by his first name! You are seeking death!" He punched Ruhua with a fist. Ruhua sneered and waved his right palm, knocking the man back a few steps and falling to the ground.
The group of people were stunned and couldn't help being shocked. Among the group of people, a young man in brocade clothes looked at Ruhua and said, "I didn't expect such a delicate little beauty to be so burdened. You might as well go with me!" Ruhua scolded angrily. Said: "Shameless person, if you continue to talk nonsense, I will make you unable to eat and walk around!"
The young man in bright clothes was Niu Xiong, the eldest son of a bully in a gambling house in the capital. He relied on the power of the gambling house and his own good martial arts to run amok, and he was also a famous villain in Jinling. The backer of the gambling house is none other than Wu Sansi. When he saw the picturesque beauty, his lust aroused.
Niu Xiong was so scolded by Ruhua that he was so angry that he immediately said to a strong man in his thirties next to him: "Ah Da, go and capture this little lady alive."
Ah Da agreed, came to Ruhua, and said, "Girl, you are lucky, my young master has taken a liking to you." Ruhua didn't answer, scolded, and struck with his right palm. Ah Da was confident and did not dodge, but raised his palms to greet him. There was a "pop" sound and both palms struck each other. Ruhua was knocked back a few steps before he stood firm.
Ruhua's face changed slightly, she didn't expect that the other person was above her. Ah Da waved his hand in triumph and said: "Girl, your internal strength is not weak, but you are no match for me. Why do you have to be a slave for others? Go and be a concubine for my young master, when you can enjoy the glory and wealth!"
Ruhua was furious, pulled out his sword, and struck with the sword. Ah Da saw that she was coming fiercely and did not dare to be careless. He had just relied on his deep internal strength to gain the upper hand, but he also knew that his internal strength was only slightly superior. Ah Da also hurriedly drew his sword to meet him, and the two started fighting. The tables and chairs naturally suffered, and most of them were destroyed by their leaps and bounds, and their swords and swords.
Seeing this, Niu Xiong said to another middle-aged man next to him: "Ah'er, why don't you go help?" Ah'er agreed and rushed towards Ruhua. But as soon as he stepped forward, he was stopped by Rushi. The two waved their palms and were knocked back. When Niu Xiong saw that Ru Shi was very beautiful, he immediately shouted: "Ah Er, take her down, you will be rewarded!"
When Ah'er heard that there was a big reward, he was overjoyed and said, "Don't worry, sir, my subordinates will do their best!" He jumped up and kicked in the air like a poem. Rushi dodged and swung her palm to counterattack. The two of them went back and forth and started fighting. Their skills were similar, and it was difficult to tell the difference for a while.
Niu Xiong frowned and said to a middle-aged man behind him: "Coach Fan, I have to ask you to take action!" Coach Fan is Fan Sheng, the coach in the gambling house who is responsible for training thugs.
Fan Sheng agreed and walked towards Rushi. Before taking two steps, he was stopped by Ding Gu. Fan Sheng didn't say anything and just punched. Ding Gu raised his palms to meet each other, and the two of them punched and kicked each other, evenly matched. Niu Xiong was surprised. He didn't expect that a few slaves in the singing and dancing restaurant could actually tie with the three masters in his gambling house. Although Niu Xiong heard that the singing and dancing restaurant was not weak, he didn't take it to heart, thinking it was just a rumor in the world. Only then did he realize that the singing and dancing restaurant was indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.
Niu Xiong came here this time actually on the orders of his father Niu Ba. Because the gambling houses in the capital have been dominant for many years, few forces compete with them. The beggar gang naturally has more power than the gambling house, but the beggar gang considers itself chivalrous and behaves in a very orderly manner, and will not get into trouble with the gambling house for no reason. As long as the gambling house does not go too far and does not provoke the beggar gang, the beggar gang will naturally have nothing to do with them.
But in recent months, Niu Ba felt that two forces had suddenly appeared, posing a faint threat to the gambling house. Longmen and Fengtang have been subduing various factions and villages in the suburbs of the city recently, and there is no direct threat yet. But if they finish conquering the suburbs, maybe the next step is the city.
