MTL - Papa Paladin-Chapter 17 When did you ever get scared when you saw me?
Chapter 17 When did you ever get scared when you saw me?
Back at home in Linjiang Town, Zuo Yi casually made something for dinner.
Lying on the armchair in the small courtyard and looking up at the sky, watching the night slowly fall and the stars appearing, his heart is joyful and peaceful.
Recalling the details of meeting Bao'er again today, Zuo Yi couldn't help but smile.
In the little girl, he seemed to see the beauty of the whole world!
very nice.
However, the sudden roar of the motorcycle engine from outside made Zuo Yi's mood instantly turn bad!
It's not over!
With the depth of Zuo Yi's self-cultivation, he couldn't help feeling angry.
The night before last, he just dispatched a group of will-o'-the-wisps who wanted to break into his old house to make trouble, but a few more uninvited guests came tonight. Do you really think he dare not be cruel?
As a paladin with the eight virtues, Zuo Yi is in the camp of lawful goodness, but his kindness and compassion will never be bestowed on evil people who disrupt order, enemies of the camp!
Putting down the half-eaten meat skewers, Zuo Yi suddenly got up and strode to the gate of the courtyard, and opened the gate with his hand.
Three motorcycles stopped in front of his door. A man in a black thin jacket stepped down and met Zuo Yi's eyes.
Zuo Yi's eyes flashed, and the killing intent hidden deep in his eyes disappeared.
It was an acquaintance who came.
The man in the black jacket is about thirty years old, with a thin body and high cheekbones, short cropped hair, deep eyes, and a long scar on his left cheek, giving people a vicious and sinister feeling.
He walked straight in front of Zuo Yi, and said in a deep voice, "Yesterday I heard that you were back, so I'll come and have a look."
Zuo Yi nodded and asked, "When did you come out?"
This man's name is Ding Xu, a native of Linjiang Town, two years older than Zuo Yi.
When Zuo Yi's mother was teaching in Linjiang Town Middle School, Ding Xu was a student in her class, and he was also a prickly student.
Ding Xu’s life experience is very unfortunate. His mother passed away when he was very young, and his father is a bad gambler and alcoholic.
Such a growing environment made Ding Xu's personality very extreme. When he was in junior high school, he mixed with the gangsters in the town, fighting, blackmailing and extorting everything. Because he was cruel and daring to fight for his life, he finally became the leader of Linjiang Town. A tyrant.
But Ding Xu, who has no background in the world, was caught up in the rivers and lakes, and he was arrested and sentenced to seven years because he was involved in a wounding case. Zuo Yi was still squatting in prison when he crossed.
"It came out the year before last."
Ding Xu took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one and handed it to Zuo Yi: "Now hang out with others in the city."
Zuo Yi didn't refuse, and took a look: "It's all drawn to the imperial city, and it seems to be doing well."
He didn't mean to be teasing.
Huangcheng cigarettes are the most famous among domestic cigarettes, and the price is quite expensive. Ordinary people only put a few boxes on the wine table at weddings and funerals to fill up the scene. Anyone who smokes Huangcheng cigarettes on a daily basis is undoubtedly rich. There are people lined up.
Of course there are people who swell their faces to pretend to be fat, but Ding Xu is obviously not among them.
Ding Xu helped Zuo Yi light a cigarette, and then he lit a cigarette for himself. He took a deep puff and said, "It's just a fool, a dog who looks at people's faces like a human, but at least there is a way to rely on it. When someone beats a dog I will also look at the face of the master."
He compares himself to a dog, which is an understatement.
Zuo Yi knew that he was sentenced to seven years in prison because of being betrayed by someone else—the leader of a gangster without any followers is just a gangster.
Ding Xu continued: "After I came out, you were not in Linjiang. I told the iron bosses in the town to keep my little brother from going to your house to cause trouble. That skinny monkey boy just came back and was ignorant. Someone taught them a lesson."
Zuo Yi finally understood that it was not only a matter of luck that his home was safe and sound after being away for three years, but also because of Ding Xu's words, otherwise what he saw when he came back was probably a ruined home.
"Thanks!"
He said, "Come in and sit down."
"No, I'll go back after I say a few more words. I have something to do tonight."
Ding Xu waved his hand: "You don't have to thank me, Teacher Zuo treated me very well, I can't let others ruin her home."
Paused, he continued: "Really, I have to thank you for helping to arrange the funeral of that old beast."
The "old bastard" that Ding Xu was referring to was his bad gambler father.
This person is undoubtedly a hateful and pathetic character. Ding Xu's mother was actually quite normal when she was alive, but later she became a scumbag that everyone in the town hates, so much so that after she died drunk in a shabby house four years ago, she couldn't bear it. No one is willing to take care of his funeral for him.
In the end, Zuo Yi paid for the cremation and funeral expenses so that he would not die without a place to bury him.
The reason why Zuo Yi did this is because the Zuo family and the Ding family had a relationship in the old days. Ding Xu's father never troubled the Zuo family, and he and Ding Xu had a little friendship.
Zuo Yi sighed, not knowing what to say.
It’s been several years since he died, Ding Xu still scolds his father as an old bastard, but Zuo Yi can hear the sadness hidden in his words.
Zuo Yi will not persuade Ding Xu's prodigal son to turn around and start a new life, because his character has already determined the life he chooses.
It’s useless for anyone to say, for example, Zuo Yi’s mother, Zuo Qingyun, always wanted to help Ding Xu get back on the right path.
As a result, Ding Xu was imprisoned.
"Father's debt is repaid by the son, and it is only right and proper to pay back the debt."
Ding Xu pointed to his motorcycle and said, "This Harley was given to me by someone else. It's not a fake or parallel import. I still have another car, so I don't need it. Can I use it to pay off the debt?" ?”
The debt he mentioned naturally refers to the funeral expenses paid by Zuo Yi.
Zuo Yi is not polite: "Okay."
He knows that there is no need to be polite with Ding Xu, even if he refuses now, he will leave it at the door anyway, so it is better to agree directly.
"The purchase invoices are all in the storage box."
Ding Xu said: "I have already greeted the police station in the town, and you can just take it to the transfer."
"correct."
His expression became serious, and he asked, "Do you know that Linjiang Town is about to be demolished?"
Zuo Yi nodded: "I know, I met Uncle Zhong yesterday, he already told me, and reminded me not to be fooled by others."
Ding Xu asked again: "Then what are your plans?"
"No plans."
Zuo Yi said indifferently: "I won't sell a penny of the land. If they tear it down, just don't bother me."
"I'm afraid it's not that simple..."
Ding Xu said: "It is said that a new city in the south of the Yangtze River will be built here, with hundreds of billions of dollars, and people with great backgrounds. Even my boss's boss is not qualified to dip in it. How can they do it in your leading land near the river?" let go?"
When the Zuo family bought land and built a house in Linjiang Town a hundred years ago, they spent a lot of money to ask the master to have a look at Feng Shui.
The house circled by the master is said to be on the head of Qianlong in the Linjiang River, and the dragon in the Yuan soars to the sky. It is a real geomantic treasure.
This incident has been circulating in Linjiang Town, and basically all the elders know about it.
Although science and technology are prosperous now, the theory of Feng Shui has been prosperous for a long time, and even put it in the lecture hall as a subject.
If Linjiang Town is to be demolished, it is impossible for people to ignore the Zuo family's Fengshui treasure, and in terms of location, it is also of great commercial value.
Ding Xu was reminding Zuo Yi that he couldn't bear the coveted eyes of others.
However, Zuo Yi just smiled: "When have you ever been afraid of seeing me?"
What a domineering answer!
Ding Xu was speechless.
Zuo Yi is indeed a character who is not afraid of anything, but he has already made it very clear that the opponent's strength is simply irresistible.
Are you afraid? In addition, it is normal for ants to not know fear in the face of elephants, because the latter's size cannot be imagined.
He just hopes that Zuo Yi can recognize the reality.
"Then you can do it yourself."
Ding Xu was not interested in persuading his mother-in-law, so he said, "Call me if you encounter difficulties, don't try to be brave."
Zuo Yi said: "You also take care."
Ding Xu waved his hand as a farewell to him, turned around and rode on another motorcycle, and drove away with two of his men.
Zuo Yi watched the tail lights disappear at the intersection, and then came to the Harley motorcycle that already belonged to him.
This Harley is very new, and it probably hasn’t had many miles on it. It has the most typical American style. The two rows of thick exhaust pipes on the left and right are shiny and shiny, and they can’t be covered by the night, which is very eye-catching.
The car has not been registered yet. Zuo Yi found the purchase invoice and documents in the storage box of the car, as well as a business card of Ding Xu.
Ding Xu's title is printed on it—general manager of Jinbihuanghuang Entertainment.
Below is Ding Xu's mobile phone number and WeChat account.
Zuo Yi casually stuffed his business card into his trouser pocket, and sat on the Harley.
Zuo Yi used to have an off-road vehicle, but he sold it later. In fact, he also likes motorcycles very much, so he even took a driver's license test.
And this Harley is the first motorcycle he really owns.
