Chapter 35: Leng Ma Gang
Li Meng took out two taels of silver and put it on the table, and said to the shopkeeper:
"Purchase some good meals and give them to my brothers. Come to Hou Shan to take you with you, and keep the remaining money shopkeepers by themselves. Today, it will also disturb your business."
The so-called good food is nothing more than steaming some hot dry food, cutting a few fish, and cutting pickles. The poor people are already very happy to eat, but they absolutely cannot use two taels of silver. This also includes the profits of the tavern. The shopkeeper was originally afraid of Li Meng, but at this time he had a good impression of him. Being polite to the weak means being humble, but the politeness and generosity of the strong means being personal charm, and Li Meng is not weak.
The young man sat on the bench at the door, lowering his head. Li Meng looked at it a few times and found that Ma Gang was very strong. Since he came to this era, most of what Li Meng saw were thin people. It is really rare for the Salt Storekeeper to have such a figure.
Li Meng's figure was tall in this era, but she also looked thin. Li Meng insisted on three meals a day and consumed protein, but lacked animal fat and ate less meat. But the young man sat there gave people the impression that he was a tiger's back and a bear's waist. The weather was cold, but he was wearing a single dress and could see blocked muscles.
Ma Baihu's family is much better than ordinary military households. I guess they are diligent in practicing martial arts and keep up with their nutrition, so they are so strong.
"Are you Ma Gang?"
"If you know, you still ask!"
Ma Gang's words were very harsh. After hearing Li Meng's question, he raised his head and stared at Li Meng with hatred. Ma Gang's face was rare white, which was closer to the appearance of a person in Jiaozhou city. After raising his head, there were some scars on his face. I guess he had suffered a little in the past few days when he was detained by Butcher Zhang.
According to Ma Baihu, Ma Gang is about the same age as Wang Hai and is still a child. Li Meng is naturally too lazy to care about him, and just said with a smile:
"Your parents asked me to take you back and follow me!"
Ma Gang stared with big eyes, twisted his neck and shouted angrily:
"What are you, you shouted at me..."
Suddenly, Ma Gang's eyes widened again, staring at Li Meng's face, obviously recognizing something. Suddenly, his butt jumped up as if it was on fire, and he pointed at Li Meng and shouted:
"You are not that fool, you are a careless little military householder, why do you shout at me?"
While speaking, he reached out and pulled Li Meng. Li Meng was really angry. Ma Gang looked the same as those non-mainstream young people he met in modern times. He didn't know at all. Li Meng also had some experience in dealing with such ungrateful young people - he would be honest after a fight.
Ma Gang stood up and grabbed Li Meng's chest. Li Meng took a step forward, hitting Ma Gang's chest with a straight punch. Whether in the army or in the security company, every morning training, horse stance punching is an indispensable course. Although Li Meng's movements are simple, they have been practicing for a long time and are directly effective.
Before the other party's hand was grabbed, Li Meng's fist was already hitting Ma Gang's chest. Ma Gang did not expect Li Meng to move so quickly. He staggered directly by this punch, tripped on the bench behind, and fell to the ground. There were still several people in the store. Seeing Ma Gang in such a mess, they burst into laughter.
Li Meng also shook his head, feeling that Ma Gang was very energetic, so he walked back and didn't worry. As soon as he left the tavern door, he heard Ma Gang roaring behind him and rushed up. The wind suddenly broke out in his head. Li Meng hurriedly flashed to the side, grabbed the other party's fist, and threw it with one back, and then threw the green Ma Gang, who was the blue one, on the street heavily. With a "boom", a lot of dust broke out on the street.
These are the most basic self-defense and empty-hand skills of modern military and security companies. They are the most simple and direct, and can burst out the greatest strength. In addition, Li Meng has always been diligent in practicing, and he has gained the upper hand on Ma Gang, who claims to like martial arts.
Ma Gang was thrown to the ground for a long time and didn't get up. He finally took a breath and struggled to rush up again. However, he felt a chill coming from his neck, and his whole body suddenly froze there, because he saw Li Meng holding a dagger against his neck. Li Meng was already a little angry and said coldly:
"If you jump around for me again, I will cut off your neck!"
Li Meng said plainly, but Ma Gang knew that the other party was not joking. He felt a coldness emerge from the bottom of his heart, and he didn't even dare to say anything. He blinked his eyes desperately to beg for mercy. This made Li Meng laugh out loud. Ma Gang was just a child, what did he do with him?
Suddenly, I heard a few screams from the other side of the street, and more than a dozen people ran towards me, but Wang Hai and the others came to pick up the meal with the shopkeeper of the tavern. Seeing Li Meng fighting with others, I rushed over.
Li Meng clapped his hands and ordered Wang Hai and the others:
"Tie Ma Gang, this gangster, for me, throw it in the car, and if you are not honest, you will be beaten."
The dozen people rushed forward and tied up Ma Gang who had not yet reacted. When they were about to throw him on the wheelbarrow, Ma Gang suddenly began to struggle and shouted to Wang Hai:
"Xiaohai, I am Gangzi, why are you doing with me?"
Wang Hai and his companions kept shouting in their hands:
"You are crazy and you actually fought with Li Erlang!"
"What!!?? He is Li Erlang!"
"nonsense!"
After this conversation, Ma Gang immediately became quiet, and Li Meng was too lazy to pay attention to it. Since the salt had been sold and everything he should have had to talk about was over, he should go home.
Originally, the news that Hou Shan inquired in Fengmeng Town was handed over to the person who came to send salt or get the news, and then sent a message to Li Meng. Since he was here this time, he just went over and listened to it himself.
However, there is not much news. It is already the twelfth lunar month. Whether it is ancient or modern Chinese, the New Year is a very grand event. The poor and the rich have to go home to celebrate the New Year, and the salt dealers of Fengmeng Town are also the same. It is said that the salt dealers of the Wang family and the Kong family are also planning to go back to celebrate the New Year in five days.
The rest of the news was that the Kong Youde Rebellion in Dengzhou was still continuing, and the imperial army had completely trapped Kong Youde in Dengzhou City. It is said that the people in the city were almost eaten up, and perhaps the rebellion was about to end. Li Meng felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the news.
