Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland

Chapter 53 The Gap in Vision

While the black market guards were there, no one around him dared to come forward and talk to him.

Now that the guard has been sent away, customers come forward to queue up.

"Boss Lu, do you plan to sell the whole sheep?" someone mentioned.

Lu Meng shook his head: "I won't sell it yet."

The person who spoke didn't feel sorry for it. He didn't have the money to buy it anyway, so he left after picking up two kilograms of rat and rabbit meat.

Suddenly there was a commotion in the crowd, which spread all the way along the queue.

"Boss Zhang?"

A slightly stooped old man wearing a thin fur coat came over.

The hunting knife was hung on his waist, making a clanking sound as it hit the animal tooth pendant with his footsteps.

It is the old hunter Zhang Ying.

Among the people present, there were some quarrelsome people discussing whether the old hunter's business would be taken away, and now the real owner has come to visit?
Lu Meng stood up: "Master Zhang, I was just going to find you."

Ok?
The eyes of the onlookers lit up.

From what Lu Beiyou said, he had already wanted to trouble Zhang Ying?

Zhang Ying glanced at the goat carcass, then moved closer to touch the arrow wounds on it.

There was nothing to stop Lu Meng, but in the eyes of others, the atmosphere seemed to have become tense.

Then, Zhang Ying was seen pulling out three feather arrows from the quiver.

Different from the wooden arrows used by Lu Meng, these arrows of his have sharp iron arrowheads!
What is this for? Do you have to do it on the spot?
Suddenly, a circle appeared around Lu Meng and Zhang Ying.

No one doubts that Boss Lu can't defeat Zhang Ying, but people in the black market are also familiar with this old hunter's archery skills. In short, don't be the unlucky guy who gets affected.

Even Huo Buyang became nervous.

The black market guard who had just sent the message did not avoid him.

No one knows what kind of deal Jiao Yi and Zhang Ying have reached.

Lu Meng was indifferent.

Then he saw the old hunter grabbing the feather arrow and handing it to Lu Meng.

"I made this arrowhead with iron sheets myself, and the tail feathers are from a carrion bird..."

He paused.

"Your arrow was too bad."

What is going on here? Someone heard the old hunter's last words clearly. Is this a mockery of Boss Lu?

But if you can come here on your own, you still need to use the feathers and arrows you made yourself.

Lu Meng took it: "Thank you."

No courtesy was offered, and no reason was asked.

He just looked at the old hunter, as if he was still waiting for his explanation.

Zhang Ying does not look like a person who is aimless.

"Yesterday..." Zhang Ying muttered. If it weren't for the trembling of his beard, he wouldn't even be able to see clearly what he said.

"Yesterday, there was indeed a pack of bone dogs."

And more than he imagined.

All over the mountains.

These pups moved forward in uncharacteristic silence, killing all the animals they encountered along the way without stopping to eat, including a few landed scavenging birds, which were once their most familiar alien "partners".

As if concealing his whereabouts.

That place is not a place where the Bone Dogs usually hang out. If Lu Meng hadn't told him the news in advance and he had been vigilant, otherwise it would have been difficult to discover them in advance.

This will be fatal.

Fortunately, although he had previously suspected that the new hunter might be inexperienced and misjudged the herd's tracks, he was not a stubborn or prejudiced person.

Only then was Lu Meng’s reminder saved his life.

"?" But Lu Meng didn't know this.

To him it was just a casual reminder.

——I didn’t expect this old hunter to care so much about such a trivial matter. "Master Zhang is joking." Lu Meng reached out his hand.

Zhang Ying hesitated for a moment and stepped forward to hold it.

"Originally, I came here to ask for your help. If you don't mind, I'll pay you a visit in Master Zhang's shop."

"it is good."

Seeing that Lu Meng had exposed this matter, Zhang Ying felt free to do anything.

Lu Meng asked Xiao Huo to watch the stall, then he picked up the goat and followed the old hunter.

Although he knew where Zhang Ying's shop was, of course he still had to let the owner lead the way at this time.

The two hunters, an old man and a young man, left side by side, leaving everyone looking at each other.

There is no tense scene as imagined.

There was no fierce bloody conflict.

Seeing as they were giving gifts and shaking hands, why did it appear that these two originally recognized competitors had a very good relationship?
At this time, a customer who was still queuing in the crowd quietly left...

……

"Old thing!" Jiao Yi slapped the table and yelled angrily.

His men had just reported to him the meeting that took place in front of the Lubei Tour Stall.

"I asked why such a new hunter suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the black market. It seems that he was probably taught by this old guy Zhang Ying!"

They deliberately pretended not to know each other at the beginning, allowing the black market to create an atmosphere where they were competing with each other.

You must know that Zhang Ying's butcher shop is definitely one of the ones with the highest profit margin in the black market, which is enviable to begin with.

It's just that he has become more mature with age, this old hunter has always been a loner, his whereabouts are unpredictable, and his own strength is pretty good, so no one can try to trick him.

With the skills used in hunting, there is no problem at all in killing an individual.

However, if he teaches one or two new apprentices, the combined interests of the two families will be enough for someone to take action, so he deliberately avoids suspicion.

When Lu Beiyou becomes a warrior and has the strength to protect himself, this old guy will stop pretending at all!
Fortunately, I went to see Zhang Ying two days ago to test his intentions and see if it was possible to work together to get rid of Lu Beiyou's "competitor".

Now that I think about it, it would be extremely embarrassing for me to discuss and plot against another's apprentice in front of my master!
"Brother, please be patient." Jiao Qi sat firmly on the wicker chair and used the cup lid to gently caress the tea leaves floating in the hot water.

He recently fell in love with this special drink imported from Hongshang. It has a unique aroma and is refreshing.

It is said that I can also supplement some vitamins.

"Everyone has never heard of Old Hunter Zhang having too close contacts with others. In the past, many people wanted to learn from his master, but they never succeeded. Brother, it's normal for you not to think of this."

He continued slowly:
"Furthermore, Boss Lu is indeed an extraordinary person. It is possible to break Mr. Zhang's habit of not accepting disciples. In this way, a warrior plus an old hunter, there may be no one else who can threaten them in the black market except Mr. Tang. ”

Jiao Yi snorted, looked at his brother, and suddenly chuckled:
“There is no one else in the black market, so what about outside the black market?

"Is what Master Wu Xin said about the new supervisor accurate?"

"Brother, don't be too narrow-minded. You are always thinking about what happened last time. You should broaden your horizons.

"Although Master Wu Xin is very arrogant, he is still very honest with his own people. Listen to what he wants. Now, wait for the old director of the North District to retire, and the president's order will come down.

"But it can't be done accurately."

Having said that, Jiao Qi couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

In this hub, anyone who has such an opportunity will not be able to restrain his trembling heart.

He is of relatively good psychological quality.

"Hahahaha, you are indeed my brother." Jiao Yi's gloomy mood just now was swept away.

Also, no matter how proud Lu Beiyou and Zhang Ying are now, they are at most just making small fuss in the black market.

It's nothing compared to the real power center of this hub.

He shook his head, actually feeling a little relieved.

How else could the president prefer his younger brother instead of himself? The gap in vision is incomparable.

He has always known that Jiao Qi is more capable than himself, and he can safely leave the specific operations of Hongfang to him. Now Jiao Qi may become the supervisor of the entire North District in the future.

And with a younger brother like him, all he wanted to do was take revenge on a little hunter. He really thought about using a golden hoe when he became an emperor.
