Jianghu I am the only one

Chapter 41 Dying
Although Babei is located in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River, it is only a remote county in the northwest of Jinghu Lake. Even if there are strong people above the third level hiding, as long as they are not provoked, they will generally not intervene in the small Babei. Jianghu disputes.

Therefore, the quacks who are active in the Babei scene are mainly the second and third realms, and the second realm is the main one.The eyes of the few third-level warriors are no longer limited to the one county of Babei, but are paying attention to the dynamics of the rivers and lakes in Shizhou and even Jingxi as a whole.

At this stage, Ouyang Ye wants to develop the Shenmu Gang and recruit the help of Jianghu masters. It is most appropriate to focus on those Jianghu scattered people whose martial arts are at the second level.

If this kind of scattered people want anything, it is money and power, both of which Ouyang Ye can give.

As for the issue of trust, firstly, he will find out the person and character of the other party before deciding whether to recruit him; secondly, as long as he is strong enough to prevent others from dissenting, and he holds the core power of the gang tightly, what does it matter? scary?
If someone really betrayed his trust and had a different heart, he would be killed.

Of course, in the final analysis, the root of everything lies in strength, that is, personal force and the power of the Shenmu Gang.

Therefore, Ouyang Ye didn't miss Ruanrouxiang, and after finishing his business with Huahao, he left the most happy building.

It was night, Ouyang Ye was fast asleep when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the courtyard door urgently.

After Ouyang Ye got up and put on his clothes, Gao Qiang opened the courtyard door and asked about the situation.

"Young Clan Master, the Clan Master is dead!" This tall man who never changed his expression in the face of life and death struggled, but at this moment he looked anxious, flustered and confused.

Ouyang Ye's heart sank when he heard this, but he didn't panic at all, but calmly said: "Go, follow me to the backyard!"

Go out first after speaking.

In the other room, Chen Lai woke up suddenly when he heard the conversation, and immediately got up, he didn't have time to put on his clothes, shoes and socks, so he went out in only his middle clothes, and hurriedly chased after him.

When Ouyang Ye came to Ouyang Hu's room, he saw Dr. Cen standing beside the bed with silver needles inserted in many places on Ouyang Hu's body. Seeing him appear, he showed a hearty smile and said, "Ye'er is here." ?”

Seeing that Ouyang Hu's spirit was better than that of the day, Ouyang Ye was not only not happy, but felt even more heavy because he thought of a word - return to light.

He looked at Dr. Cen sharply, and wanted to say something, but Ouyang Hu jumped ahead of him and said, "Doctor Cen has done his best, so don't blame him. I don't have much time, so you can talk to me for a while."

The maids, Dr. Cen, Chen Lai, and Gao Qiang in the room wanted to leave after hearing the words.

But Ouyang Hu said again: "Chen Lai and Gao Qiang stay here."

So, soon there were only Ouyang Hu, Ouyang Ye, Chen Lai, and Gao Qiang left in the house.

"Come on, you all come to the bed." Ouyang Hu smiled and waved to the three of them.

Ouyang Ye came to the bed and knelt down, so did Gao Qiang and Chen Lai.

Ouyang Hu showed a benevolent smile and said, "Gao Qiang, I brought you out of your hometown when you were 13 years old, has it been eight years now?"

With tears in his eyes, Gao Qiang said, "Back then, I had two older sisters in my family, and two younger brothers and one younger sister. If the leader hadn't brought me out, not only my parents and I would have starved, but my brothers and sisters would have been difficult to raise. The leader Gao Qiang will never forget the kindness between me and the Gao family."

Ouyang Hu said: "Your family has been a tenant of my family for a long time. It was only after something happened to me that I sold the land and went away, so your family became a tenant of the Lu family. It made life so sad."

"It stands to reason that with my worth at the time, I could make your family live a good life with just some silver taels. But I didn't do that. Instead, I took you out into the rivers and lakes and let you support your own family. You blame me in your heart." ?"

Gao Qiang shook his head quickly, and said: "Gao Qiang never blamed the leader, on the contrary, he was still grateful to the leader. If it weren't for helping the leader to practice martial arts and do things, how could I earn money to support my family at a young age? And didn't the leader teach me, It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish, and the kindness of the leader to Gao Qiang cannot be compared with any amount of silver."

It was the first time for Ouyang Ye to hear Gao Qiang, who has always been dumb, talk so much, he couldn't help being surprised, and thought: It seems that he is not really dumb, but he just doesn't like to talk too much.

Ouyang Hu sighed when he heard this, and said: "In the final analysis, I still have selfish motives in doing this. It is because I see that you are naturally strong, bold and careful, and you are a good material for practicing martial arts and breaking into the rivers and lakes. That's why I will use you Cultivate the mentality of being a helper. I have always been ashamed of you, but now I hear you say that, and I feel more relaxed."

When Gao Qiang heard this, he was even more moved, but also more saddened.

Because he understood that no matter what Ouyang Hu's original purpose was, now, this person who he regards as his master and led him into the rivers and lakes will leave, and he will never come back.

Ouyang Hu looked at Chen Lai again, and said, "Ah Lai, when I adopted you, you were already eight years old. You said that both your parents died, but you didn't say that there were no relatives in your hometown. Have you ever thought about going back to your hometown to see it? "

Chen Lai, who was usually out of shape, was kneeling straight in front of the bed at this moment, tears had already shed,

Hearing this, he wiped away his tears and said, "Ah Lai once thought about going back to his hometown, but he just wanted to let those relatives and folks who looked down on me and gave me cold eyes in the past to see that I, Chen Lai, are doing well now, even more There is a backer like the leader of the gang. But after a long time, I felt that it was meaningless to go back and worry about small things in the past with the villagers, so I gave up this idea."

Ouyang Hu looked relieved when he heard this, and said: "This change in thinking shows that you have really grown up and matured. In this way, I feel more at ease with you. However, I have treated you as my own over the years, So before I die, I still want to ask you a few more words."

"Leader, please tell me, Ah Lai must remember."

Ouyang Hu said: "I know it's not that you really don't like martial arts, it's just that your body is congenitally deficient, and practicing martial arts is half the effort, which makes you more and more slack in martial arts. But, I hope you can always help Ye'er in the future, after all You grew up with him, and you are like brothers to each other."

"So, if you really don't want to practice martial arts anymore, you should put more effort into learning account management from Uncle Chen. I think Ye'er has a lot of ambition. When you learn it well, you will be relied on by him one day. I understand. ?"

"Alai understands." Chen Lai kowtowed deeply to Ouyang Hu, and said with tears, "Alai must spend more time studying in the future and work hard to improve, and he will definitely live up to the leader's expectations!"

"Okay, okay." Ouyang Hu nodded with a smile, finally set his eyes on Ouyang Ye, and said after a little pondering: "Ye'er, your performance since you became enlightened has far exceeded your expectations as a father. So, yes You and I don't have much to ask. There are only two things, I hope you can remember."

"Father, please tell, the child must remember."

Ouyang Hu said: "First, in the future, as long as Chen Lai and Gao Qiang don't betray you, you have to treat them as brothers. Because, if you don't get the hang of it, they will be the ones I will stay to take care of you for the rest of your life. Understand ?"

"My child understands." Ouyang Ye nodded.

He knew that Ouyang Hu meant that Chen Lai and Gao Qiang were his two most trusted juniors.As for a younger brother like Ouyang Chang, it may not be because he doesn't trust his character, but it's probably because he feels that Ouyang Chang's ability cannot take care of Ouyang Ye comprehensively.

Ouyang Hu went on to say: "Secondly, since you have entered this river and lake, you must remember one sentence - if you keep the green hills, you will not be afraid of running out of firewood. Therefore, if you encounter danger in the future, you must put your life first. As long as a person is still alive, even if he loses everything, he can earn it back, understand?"

There was a strong feeling of wanting to cry, but Ouyang Ye gritted his teeth and nodded, "Understood."

Ouyang Hu also nodded slightly, as if he was satisfied with everything in front of him, then he closed his eyes with a smile, but his hand on the side of the bed suddenly dropped as if it lost its support...

"Father--"

The grief in Ouyang Ye's heart could no longer be held back, even though he bit his lip, the tears still flowed down like water from a gate, and couldn't stop...
