Chapter 23 The Evil(2/2)
"What are your plans for coming to make trouble today?" he said.
The man lying on the ground was hit in the face and was howling with his hands covered, his nose bleeding profusely.
In the past, they would make the first move and then ask the other party what their plans were. Unexpectedly, today it was the other way around.
"Hit me, beat this foreigner who has turned the world upside down!" he shouted hoarsely.
The three brothers beside him immediately shouted, jumped up and rushed towards Xu Maoxiu.
The guests in the room all held their heads to hide their faces, and could only hear the banging of fists and body collisions and screams, and it soon became quiet.
It wouldn't take much time for three people to beat up one person.
The banging stopped, and everyone let go and looked over, only to see one person standing, and four people lying on the ground, holding their heads, stomach and legs, and yelling repeatedly.
The man with a bleeding nose stared wide-eyed, his face full of shock.
This man's skills are so good! What a ruthless skill! These gangsters are already good at fighting, but I didn't expect that this man is even more good at fighting. His moves are simple, but his moves are cruel. Every time he strikes, it's a fight that will either kill you or kill you.
I die.
It's just a fight, no need to fight so hard, right?
Before this was over, three or four men were heard coming in. When they saw this scene, their eyes widened and their posture immediately changed.
"I'm tired of living!" they shouted.
Xu Maoxiu raised his hand to stop them.
"Throw it out," he said.
Accompanied by several noises, the men, who had arrived with fierce looks, were thrown outside the Taiping House, asking the onlookers to take a few steps away and point fingers.
The leading man stood up, vomited blood, and looked at the five men standing in front of the door. He had miscalculated this time. Such a small shop actually had so many good thugs!
"Wait! Wait! We're not done yet!" The man shouted, pointing at Xu Maoxiu, turned around and mounted his horse.
After watching the people run away, silence returned in front of the Taiping Residence, but the original peaceful and joyful atmosphere was broken up.
People inside and outside looked at each other, not knowing whether to leave or stay. Regardless of whether to leave or stay, this meal was very disappointing.
"Everyone, everyone, it's a small matter, a small matter." Shopkeeper Wu laughed and waved his hands to the guests inside and outside, "It's been so long since the store has been open and no one has come to make trouble. I thought this store was not good, but it's better now.
The stone fell to the ground."
Everyone laughed.
Yes, whoever runs a prosperous shop has not been blackmailed. A small shop has rogue street bullies to deal with, and a big shop has government officials to deal with it. It is not that there is no wind and waves, and there is no chance of making a fortune.
"I'd also like to thank those people for supporting me." Shopkeeper Wu smiled again, and as expected, he rushed to the door and saluted.
The laughter became even louder, and the awkward atmosphere from before disappeared.
"I've surprised you all today." Shopkeeper Wu said with a smile, "I'm Tai Pingju and don't have to eat or drink anything today, just to calm your surprise."
Hearing this, the people standing outside immediately rushed in with smiles. The clerks were also busy cleaning up the messy hall, quickly wiping and setting up several tables.
"It's just the shopkeeper. These scoundrels are villains after all. It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Villains are seeking revenge every day. You'd better be careful." Someone also kindly reminded them.
Shopkeeper Wu laughed again.
"A few scoundrels are causing trouble for nothing, why don't the government care? If they dare to come here again to bully others, they will be dealt with according to the king's law." He said casually and nonchalantly.
If the government was in charge, there would be no such rogues, but looking at Shopkeeper Wu's casual words, everyone present couldn't help but nod in belief.
This Taiping Residence can be favored by Puxiu Temple and specialize in tofu, and there is a good calligraphy of an unknown hermit master hanging in front of the door. How can it be an ordinary house?
"Come, come, please, please." Shopkeeper Wu said with a smile.
Everyone also gave up their thoughts and sat down to eat and drink. Although it was not as good as before, the restaurant was still open smoothly and normally.
After settling in the guests and waiters, and entering the backyard, the smiles on the faces of Xu Maoxiu and Shopkeeper Wu disappeared immediately. They looked at each other and saw the solemn look in each other's eyes.
