One evening a few days later, Lao Ba, the leader of the Ax Gang, pushed Pai Gow a few rounds at a gambling stall near Shiliupu Pier.
He swung out with a cigarette in his mouth, unbuttoned his pants and started draining water by the smelly ditch behind the alley.
A dark shadow walked over quietly.
Lao Scar was humming Suzhou Pingtan jokes, shaking his head, and the water dragon spraying from his crotch.
He was so happy that he didn't notice that the danger was approaching.
The black shadow raised the ax and chopped it down without hesitation.
The sharp ax fell with the sound of wind.
After all, Lao Scar was a hob meat who had been in the world for many years.
He subconsciously turned his head, but he dodged it, but his body couldn't avoid it.
The ax It hit him on the shoulder, deeply embedded in the bone.
Lao Scar was hit by an axe, and his adrenaline surged.
He didn't even feel the pain.
Instead, he pulled out the ax from his shoulder and struck back.
The black shadow was already on guard and dodged.
Lao Scar roared and pounced on him, dead on.
He grabbed his neck and the two struggled together.
After somersaults, the old scar on his shoulder, which was bleeding profusely, finally fell to the ground.
The black shadow picked up the axe, pressed Lao Scar's palm to the ground, and chopped off his fingers one by one.
Blood covered his face, but he did not hesitate in his movements.
After doing all this, he lifted Lao Scar's body into the After crossing the smelly ditch, he walked away.
Twenty minutes later, in the locker room of the Petersburg billiard room, Li Yaoting put adhesive plaster on his face in front of the mirror.
His shirt collar was covered in blood.
A colleague came in and asked: "Foreman, what's wrong?
I got into a fight."
"It's okay, I fell down.
Thank you for your concern."
Li Yaoting grinned and replied politely.
He picked up a towel and looked at himself in the mirror.
He carefully wiped the blood spots on his forehead.
He wore it on his little finger.
A black celluloid pen case.
After getting dressed up, Li Yaoting stood at the door of the billiard room, looked around, popped a three-fort gun from the cigarette case into his mouth, took out a lighter and lit it, took a deep breath and blew out the smoke from his nostrils.
He saw four yakuza wearing old felt hats squatting in the corner.
He nodded slightly.
The first yakuza pressed the brim of his hat and turned his head to the side.
Boss Petrov dragged his fat body out of the club and went to the billiard room across the street to inspect the business.
The winter in Shanghai was not cold at all, especially for a Russian.
He had just drank a bottle of vodka, and his thick neck Beads of sweat seeped out, very comfortable.
The street was busy with traffic and noisy as usual.
When Petrov walked to the door of the billiard room, suddenly a group of bastards rushed over.
God knows how their thin bodies contained so much power, and they actually lifted Peter, who weighed 200 pounds.
Rove was knocked to the ground.
Petrov cursed in Russian.
He felt a hand reaching into his arms to take out his wallet and gold watch.
These nasty little red guys were so bold that they actually robbed them in the street.

If he were twenty years younger, Petrov could easily take out his wallet and gold watch.
They uniformed, but it was a pity that he was old.
"Stop!"
a roar sounded, and then Petrov felt a lightness on his body.
He struggled to hold himself up and saw that the foreman of the billiard room, Li Yaoting, was fighting with the thieves.
A siren sounded in the distance, and the thieves turned and ran away.
Li Yaoting was about to catch up, but fell limply to the ground.
Petrov crawled over and took a look, and saw a deep bloody gash on Li Yaoting's back.
"Li," Petrov shouted eagerly.
Li Yaoting is a new guy in the billiard room.
He is witty and clever, has the loyalty of a northerner, and can speak a few words in English.
He is very appreciated by himself.
He was promoted to the top position in just a few months.
If it weren't for his natural contempt for the Chinese, Petrov would even want to let him take care of the billiard room.
Now it seems that there are men among the Chinese.
Hengyang, Hunan, the camp of the 3rd Division of the Beiyang Army.
Although there is no heavy snow in the winter in the south, it is extremely cold and humid.
The sentry at the gate of the camp, his cheeks turned red from the cold, still stick to his post.
A group of students meandered over, claiming to petition Marshal Wu.
The sentry did not dare to neglect and reported to the Chinese army urgently.
After a while, he saw an old soldier rushing over alone and bowed his hands to the students: "Wu is late.
Everyone, please come inside.”
The students looked at each other in shock, unable to believe that this forty-year-old veteran was the legendary victorious general Wu Peifu, but judging from his calm demeanor and the respectful attitude of the sentry, it was clearly that he was Marshal Wu.
"Commander, save Hunan, save us."
The leading student shouted suddenly.
The other male and female students also shouted, "Commander, save the 30 million Hunan people."
"Tell me slowly what's going on."
Wu Peifu asked hurriedly.
The leading student took out a petition from his arms and held it high above his head and said: "Marshuai Wu, this is a petition from our Hunan academic community.
Please uphold justice and expel Zhang Jingyao."
Wu Peifu frowned and said: "Governor Zhang is the governor appointed by the Beijing government.
I, Wu Peifu, am just a division commander.
You have found the wrong person.
If you want to expel Zhang Jingyao, you have to go to Beijing to find the president."
The student said: "The Beijing government is controlled by the Anfu Congress.
Everyone knows that Zhang Jingyao looks up to Duan Qirui, and he is also a national traitor.
Zhang is a traitor in Hunan.
He expropriated taxes and disbanded schools.
The people went bankrupt and swallowed their anger.
Only Marshal Wu in Hengyang ruled the land, and the people To live and work in peace and contentment, and have peace and prosperity, we don’t want Zhang Jingyao, we want Marshal Wu.”
The students behind raised their arms and shouted: "Dashuai Wu, Marshal Wu"
The mustache on Wu Peifu's lips slowly turned up.
The student said again: "Wow, there is an insurgency that cannot be defeated.
What's more, the people of Hunan Province look to the commander-in-chief for their savior, just as they look to Yun Ni when there is a severe drought."
As he said this, he actually raised his hands and knelt down, crying profusely.

The students also knelt down and cried bitterly.
Wu Peifu helped one person up and the other one knelt down, but they were too busy.
The soldiers of the Third Division slowly gathered around.
Listening to the students' accusations against Governor Zhang, they couldn't help but shed tears.
"Hunan people have really suffered."
Wang Degui said with emotion, raising his sleeves to wipe the corners of his eyes.
He and Chen Zikun happened to pass by the camp gate and saw this scene.
Chen Zikun stared at Wu Peifu's every move and suddenly said: "Master seems to be quite useful."
Wang Degui said: "That's not true.
Who are college students?
They are all literary stars who have descended to earth.
They have all knelt down before our teacher.
How can I not use it?"
Chen Zikun didn't say anything, but he was thinking in his mind.
With the May Fourth incident, the Anfu government of Duan Qirui and Xu Shuzheng was put on the fire and criticized by all the people.
This was the right time, and he was on the front line of the North-South war.
He could be ready at any time.
In order to get support from the armies in the south, this is the geographical advantage and the people's desire.
Even college students came to beg him to go north.
In this way, the time, place and people were favorable, and Wu Peifu took advantage of it.
It seemed that a fierce battle was not far away.
Over there, Wu Peifu comforted the students and promised to give them a reply as soon as possible.
The students refused and said they would not leave until they got a reply.
Unexpectedly, this move was not difficult for Marshal Wu.
Wu Peifu immediately asked the Adjutant's Office to accommodate them and provide them with good food and food.
Treats.
Returning to the headquarters, Wu Peifu high-fived and laughed: "A great deal has been accomplished."
A middle-aged man wearing a long gown and glasses said: "Congratulations, general, the Northern Expedition is just around the corner."
Wu Peifu said: "Wait a minute, this advance to the north will not end until death, and there is no complete guarantee.
I will not take the lives of 30,000 soldiers as a matter of course."
The middle-aged man nodded and said: "Let's set out to march north.
Lu Rongting of Guangxi and Tang Jiyao of Yunnan should breathe a sigh of relief.
We can ask them for some departure fees appropriately.
Tan Yankai and Zhao Hengti of Hunan should also express their gratitude.
In this way, at least six months can be raised."
One hundred thousand military pay, with this money, it will not be a problem to solve Zhang Jingyao. " Wu Peifu said with a smile: "To defeat Zhang Jingyao, we don't need the third division.
As long as I withdraw, the Hunan Army will give Zhang a headache."
The middle-aged man said: "The general is wise, so how should we deal with him now?"
Wu Peifu said: "Send power again" The monotonous days passed very quickly.
In the blink of an eye, the three-month agreement had come long ago, but there was still no news from Chen Zikun.
Jian Bing was worried that Chen Zikun would not be able to find a place when he came back because of his move, or that he would not receive letters, so he returned to his original place every now and then.
Ask where you do business.
The world of fireworks has always been about new people replacing old ones.
After Jian Bing washed her hands in the golden basin, a new person immediately took her place.
The person who renewed the lease of this yard was a girl named Liu Ruyan, who is the same as Jian Bing.

The sisters brought out by their mother.
"Sister, let me keep an eye on it for you.
If there are any letters or telegrams, send someone to deliver them immediately."
Liu Ruyan smiled broadly.
"Please, sister, I won't disturb my sister's business."
Jian Bingyingying stood up and left.
Liu Ruyan walked out of the door in person, waving a handkerchief and said, "Sister often comes to play."
Watching the Oldsmobile drive away, Liu Ruyan still had a smile on her face.
She returned to the study apartment and took out two letters from the drawer, one from Guangzhou and one from Hengyang, Hunan. of.
"Sister, I will burn them for you right now."
Liu Ruyan raised her orchid fingers, put the two letters on the kerosene lamp and lit them.
After coming out of Sima Road, Jian Bing felt uneasy, so he came to the Zhabei Jingwu Club by accident, and found the owner Huo Dongge to ask about Chen Zikun's whereabouts.
"Ms.
Jian Bing, please come with me."
Huo Dongge looked serious and took Jian Bing to a room.
In the center were two sets of tablets, one of which belonged to Huo Yuanjia, the founder of the Jingwu Association, and the other Chen Zhen's name was clearly written on it.
"Fifth Junior Brother is gone.
He sacrificed his life for the country and nation.
We will never forget him."
Huo Dongge lit a stick of incense and handed it to Jian Bing.
Jian Bing refused to answer, turned around and left, rushed out of Jingwu Meeting and got into the car.
He started the car in a hurry and drove blindly on the road, letting the winter wind blow through the car window on his tearful face.
It wasn't until night that the devastated Jian Bing returned to his apartment.
Debt collectors were sitting all over the house.
Although Jian Bing had washed his hands of his problems, his food and clothing expenses were still the same as before, at least three hundred yuan a month.
Even if she were to give up, she would have nothing to lose, not to mention that all her savings would be wasted.
The landlord, the owner of the rice shop, the shopkeeper of the jewelry shop, and the clerk of the fur shop all nodded and bowed: "Miss Jian Bing, you are back.
Please see if the account has been settled first."
Jian Bing took off the diamond ring on his hand and threw it on the table, and then took off the jade bracelet: "Is it enough?"
"Enough, enough."
The creditors smiled flatteringly and withdrew.
Jian Bing wept alone, and after a long while he sighed, cleared his head, and prepared to go back to Sima Road tomorrow to open his business.
Suddenly the servant came with a large bouquet of flowers and reported: "Sir, someone placed this at the door
