Chapter 8: One should not let enmity linger overnight
Dong ... ...
However, Uncle Duan is truly a low-key person, and there have been almost no news reports about him anywhere. The several group companies that his colleague boasted about have different leaders, which made Lu Yan very skeptical about the authenticity of his colleague's words
Moreover, these good-for-nothings are like the chives in the field; once one bunch is cut, another bunch quickly grows strong in its place
"How should I address you?" Lu Yan asked casually
No, do you want to die
Lowering his head, Tie Ge felt a slight pressure and pain in his eyes
Don't move, I still want to leave some alive
Thoughts swirling, Lu Yan said. Regardless of the characters that emerge, one must always address the issues at hand; mere avoidance will only lead to endless troubles and harm. Therefore, Lu Yan decided to meet with Chen Liangwei, famously known as Wei Ge.
In just a few short hours, this so-called underworld boss named Chen Liangwei was able to obtain his own photograph through special channels and quickly establish contact with local figures like Bald Iron Brother. Indeed, his influence is vast.
The illustrious name of the Brilliant Palace Nightclub had reached Lu Yan five years ago when he first arrived here. It is indeed renowned and well-known, celebrated in the Xinmen District with the reputation of being the "Little Heaven on Earth". A colleague who had once visited boasted to him about the fragrant breezes and the abundance of beautiful women, making it seem like a paradise on earth! The opulence is overwhelming, with even the faucets at the washbasins made of gold
The training and insights gained in recent days have enabled him to easily control those so-called underworld figures who lack combat training and only know how to display momentary bravado. Techniques such as monkey-style agility, stealth, joint manipulation, and critical strikes... These, of course, cannot be mastered overnight through books, and to an expert's eye, they are riddled with flaws.
After the bald Iron Brother made intimate contact with the stone wall, he slowly slid down and sat on the ground. Lu Yan picked up the watermelon knife from the ground and, using the side of the knife, patted the still spitting blood Iron Brother, his gaze chillingly frightening
I will still call you Xiao Wang, shall I? Lu Yan spoke as if discussing with Tie Ge, but before he could nod, he continued to ask: What do you all want from me? How did you find me? Who is Wei Ge?
Lu Yan asked: "Chen Liangwei, where are you?"
Little did he know, Bald Iron Brother shook his head in fear, repeatedly saying he dared not.
This afternoon at 7 o'clock, Chen Liangwei, the gang leader from the Ximen District, had his assistant call me, asking me to pay attention to a young man in jeans and a white shirt. He even sent me a photo, instructing me to capture him if I found him. I wanted to procure some goods from Wei Ge, so I had to curry favor with him, and then I instructed my subordinates to search the streets. Unexpectedly, Huang Mao told me that he had found you, so he came directly over.

Characters like him, who play minor roles, often engage in activities such as selling K powder or running small gambling operations. He has served time and experienced life behind bars, and has even fought alongside those who have crossed the line. He has even seriously injured a few rivals he found displeasing. However, these are merely small-time affairs. He usually considers himself brave, but when faced with professionals who leave him utterly defenseless, he likely feels even more fearful than the average person.
He squatted on the luggage rack of the motorcycle, tapping the occipital bone at the back of Tie Ge's head, which was covered in sweat, and his fingertip brushed against a greasy patch.
According to his words and the literary tradition of that time, only the older generation of Jiangcheng residents knew about Uncle Duan's story. At that moment, Lu Yan and several colleagues laughed heartily, treating it merely as a legendary tale, without delving deeper into it
However, at this moment, there is a strong utility and a sense of mystery
With trembling hands raised in a gesture of surrender, the bald man stammered, "Spare me, good sir!"
Qianyi Town is the location of the Jiangcheng Ximen District government, serving as the center of politics, economy, and culture, and is naturally the most prosperous destination
Enough with the nonsense! The bald man’s excessive flattery was unbearable for Lu Yan. He slapped him on the head, causing sweat to splatter everywhere. Quickly wiping his hands on the bald man's vest, he thought of the photo and took out his phone from Tie Ge's pocket, asking: "Is the photo in the multimedia message?"
Lu Yan's heart was also struck by such words, causing him to break into a sweat. He secretly cursed under his breath and, after a while, finally reacted, saying: "I will ask a question, and you will answer. If you tell a lie or fail to respond, I will take one of your possessions. You can choose the order for your hands, feet, and little brother. On the sixth time, it will be your head. There are many people coming and going here, so let’s be quick, shall we?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as the biceps exerted force, the hand holding the knife was gently grasped by someone. Although the person's strength was slight, their speed was very quick. After gently holding his arm, they pushed and then released it.
"Oh, brother, you are truly cultured!" Tie Ge nodded vigorously.
Good ... ... good! Iron Brother quickly nodded
A heavy collision sound echoed, and dust fell from the walls and courtyard.
Cough, cough..." Tie Ge coughed violently, his mouth filled with fresh blood. After a while, he raised his head to meet Lu Yan's gaze. This was the first time he had examined Lu Yan face to face—an utterly ordinary young man, refined and slender, with a calm complexion. However, in his slightly squinted eyes, there was a piercing light that resembled shards of broken glass, strikingly intense.
Just now, a slap was delivered a bit too hard, causing Tie Ge to feel dizzy. He shook his head and quickly said:
Who is causing me trouble? Lu Yanmo pondered, and the military-registered Land Rover he encountered at noon involuntarily surfaced in his mind
He is concerned that someone has already taken an interest in him and is specifically probing into his background
Such a place, in the trajectory of his previous life, is likely one he may never visit in this lifetime
Lu Yan was too lazy to entangle with him and directly asked about their backers.
The distant streetlight stands alone at the corner, emitting a cold, dim yellow light. Further away, the sounds of cars, conversations, and noise drift in from the street, while the cicadas' chirping grows quieter and the birds' songs become more serene. Bald Iron Brother listens to the words that resonate softly against his back, and suddenly feels a tightening in his heart, as if the earth itself has fallen silent.
"Xiao Wang, do you really think I won't kill you? Let me say it again: call Chen Liangwei, tell him you've found the person, and ask him where to send them. If you agree, just nod; if you don't, then you can forget about your head, and I'll help you get rid of it."
After a moment of silence, he compromised: "I... I only have his assistant's phone number"
"I want to live..." Tie Ge nodded vigorously without hesitation, his face displaying an expression of innocence and harmlessness
live mouth
My name is Wang Detie, and you can just call me Little Tie. Tie Ge quickly replied. Although he was already in his thirties, he had a thick skin, and his tone was flattering without any hint of awkwardness, his mind filled with thoughts of self-preservation
Such individuals are the most unscrupulous, colluding with the unscrupulous, bullying the weak while fearing the strong, and they excel at causing chaos in society. However, when faced with authority, they are as fearful as a tiger, not daring to breathe a word. They are like slugs, repulsive and untouchable, and yet there is nothing you can do about them; after all, you cannot truly kill them.
With this thought in mind, Lu Yan asked: "Do you want to live or die?"
Tie Ge glanced at the limp figure of the yellow-haired person on the ground from the corner of his eye, and the sweat on his forehead increased a little more
Lu Yan jumped out of the car, grabbed him by the neck, and leaped towards the wall of the alley.
Oh, I see. You call him and just say that you caught me, and ask where to send me
Oh dear, big brother, had I known you were a master, I would never have dared to do so. The expression on Tie Ge's face was filled with regret
Seeing Bald Iron Brother's cowardly appearance, Lu Yan felt an overwhelming surge of anger.
I beg you, noble hero, spare my life
Lu Yan quickly found the photo that had been sent. It was a screenshot of the traffic system, showing Lu Yan leisurely riding his second-hand bicycle on his way home. He was indeed wearing jeans and a white shirt, and his face was faintly discernible.
Lu Yan controlled the resonance in his chest cavity, allowing his voice to become more rugged.
This fellow is quite aware of the situation. Although he seems to wield power and act recklessly in the West, it is merely because he is tolerated and given a meager allowance to do the dirty and laborious work. However, if he dares to deceive Wei Ge, a figure who operates in both the legal and illegal realms, it would be akin to lighting a lamp in a toilet—seeking death.
On a hot summer night, a gentle breeze wafts through the dimly lit alley
Underground Godfather, how impressive he is
Such individuals are akin to the officials of m.hetushu.com who take their duties seriously
As that person's hand withdrew, Tie Ge felt as if his right hand had suddenly lost all connection with his body, and it fell limply to his side. With a clatter, the two-foot-long steel watermelon knife dropped to the ground, nearly striking his foot
The underground godfather of Jiangcheng
He has been in the industry for many years, and the several knife scars on his chest bear witness to the fierce and glorious years of Iron Brother, as well as to his heart as hard as iron. Feeling that the cold fingers threatening the back of his head were not a significant threat, Iron Brother tightened his right wrist holding the knife, preparing to strike back with a swift slash.
It seems that in order to make this fellow obedient, one can only resort to displaying things that instill fear and dread in him
In this sentence, there is a name of greater significance—Uncle Duan
Damn Chen Liangwei, you shamelessly claim to be an ordinary person. Had I known your skills were so formidable, I wouldn't have dared to step in here even with ten leopard gallbladders. Isn't this a case of gods fighting while mortals suffer? Brother, you must be a special forces soldier; I have always loved reading novels where you guys are the protagonists
The name Lu Yan was heard a few years ago while boasting with a local colleague. At that time, it was introduced in a tone of lofty admiration, amidst a series of titles such as a major real estate developer, a representative of the municipal people, a member of the provincial steam association, and so on. Among these exaggerated titles, one particularly stood out and left a deep impression on Lu Yan:
The person who has arrived is Lu Yan
Who would have thought that today, several years later, I would actually be connected to this name
I do not know; this Chen Liangwei is one of the Four Great Kings under Uncle Duan of the Wantang Group, with many enemies and unpredictable movements. However, at this time, he is most likely at the Huiguang Palais de Danse in Qianyi, which is his stronghold
