Back at home in Linjiang Town, Zuo Yi casually cooked something for dinner.

    Lying on the chair in the courtyard, looking up at the sky, watching the night slowly falling, watching the stars appear, his heart was happy and peaceful.

    Recalling every bit of meeting boa again today, Zuo Yi couldn''t help smiling.

    In the little girl, he seemed to see the beauty of the whole world!

    splendid.

    However, the roar of the motorcycle engine suddenly came from the outside, which made Zuo Yi''s mood worse in an instant!

    It''s endless!

    With Zuo Yi''s deep self-restraint, he couldn''t help getting angry.

    The night before yesterday, he just sent a group of ghostly gangsters who wanted to break into his old house and make trouble. As a result, several uninvited guests came tonight. I really think he didn''t dare to be cruel?

    As a Paladin with eight virtues, Zuo Yi ranks in the orderly and good camp, but his kindness and compassion will never be given to the evil people who destroy order and the enemy of the camp!

    Put down the half eaten meat kebab, Zuo Yi Huoran got up and strode to the gate of the yard, stretched out his hand and opened the gate.

    The front and back three motorcycles Kankan stopped in front of his door. A man in a black thin jacket stepped down, just opposite Zuo Yi''s eyes.

    Zuo Yi''s eyes flashed, and the killing intention hidden in the depths of his eyes disappeared.

    It''s an acquaintance.

    The black jacket man is about 30 years old. He is thin, with towering cheekbones. He cuts his flat head and short hair. His eyes are quite deep. There is a long scar on his left cheek, giving people a cruel and gloomy feeling.

    He went straight to Zuo Yi and said in a deep voice, "I heard that you came back yesterday. I''ll come and have a look."

    Zuo Yi nodded and asked, "when did you come out?"

    The man''s name is Ding Xu, a native of Linjiang town. He is two years older than Zuo Yi.

    When Zuo Yi''s mother taught in Linjiang town middle school, Ding Xu was a student in her class, and she was still a thorn in the head.

    Ding Xu''s life experience is very unfortunate. His mother died when he was very young. His father is a rotten gambler and an alcoholic. When he lost gambling and got drunk, he went home to beat him.

    This kind of growth environment makes Ding Xu''s character very extreme. When he was in junior high school, he mixed with the bastards in the town, fighting, racketeering and extortion. Because he was cruel and dared to fight, he finally became a bully in Linjiang town.

    However, people drifted in the Jianghu, and Ding Xu, who had no influence background, soon fell. Because he was involved in a wounding case, he was arrested and sentenced to seven years. Zuo Yi was still in prison when he crossed.

    "It came out the year before last."

    Ding Xu took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, photographed one and handed it to Zuo Yi: "now I''m hanging out with others in the city."

    Zuo Yi didn''t refuse. He took a look: "it''s all in the imperial city. It looks like he''s doing well."

    He meant no teasing.

    Imperial City cigarettes are the most famous domestic cigarettes, and the price is also quite expensive. Ordinary people only put a few boxes of filling scenes on the wedding and funeral table. If anyone smokes Imperial City cigarettes every day, it is undoubtedly a person with money and appearance.

    Of course, there are also those who play swollen faces and fill fat people, but Ding Xu is obviously not among them.

    Ding Xu helped Zuo Yi light a cigarette, also lit it for himself, took a hard puff and said, "just fooling around. You look like a man''s dog according to people''s face, but at least you can count on it. When they beat a dog, they will also look at the owner''s face."

    He compared himself to a dog and made a very understatement.

    Zuo Yi knows that he was sentenced to seven years because of the betrayal of others - the gangster leader who has no followers is just a gangster.

    Ding Xu continued: "after I came out, you weren''t in Linjiang. I told the iron head of the town to take care of their little brother and don''t go to your house. The thin monkey just came back and didn''t know anything. I''ve been taught a lesson to them."

    Zuo Yi finally understands that it is not just a matter of luck that he has been safe at home for three years, but also Ding Xu''s words. Otherwise, he may come back and see a ruined home.

    "Thanks!"

    He said, "come in and sit down."

    "No, I''ll go back after a few more words. I have something to do in the evening."

    Ding Xu waved his hand: "you don''t have to thank me. Teacher Zuo treats me very well. I can''t let others spoil her home."

    After a pause, he continued, "to tell you the truth, I have to thank you for helping to take care of the old beast."

    Ding Xu''s "old beast" is his rotten gambler father.

    This is undoubtedly a hateful and sad figure. Originally, Ding Xu''s mother was very normal when she was alive. Later, she became a disgusting scum scoundrel in the town, so that no one was willing to take care of his affairs after he died drunk in a broken house four years ago.

    Finally, Zuo Yi paid for cremation and funeral expenses so that he would not die without a burial place.

    Zuo Yi did this because the Zuo family and the Ding family had some roots in the old times. Ding Xu''s father had never been in trouble with the Zuo family, and he had a little friendship with Ding Xu.

    Zuo Yi sighed and didn''t know what to say.

    After several years of death, Ding Xu still scolds his father, an old beast. However, Zuo Yi can hear the deep sadness in his words.

    Zuo Yi will not persuade Ding Xu''s prodigal son to turn back and start a new life, because his character has 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 go back to the right path.

    As a result, Ding Xu was imprisoned.

    "It''s natural for a father to pay his son''s debts and for a son to pay his debts."

    Ding Xu pointed to his motorcycle and said, "this Harley was given to me by others. Regular licensed goods are not black goods and parallel goods. I have another car, so I can''t use it. Can I use it to pay your debt?"

    By debt, he naturally refers to Zuo Yichu''s funeral expenses.

    Zuo Yi was not polite: "OK."

    He knew that he didn''t need to be polite to Ding Xu. Even if he refused now, he would still leave it at home. It''s better to promise directly.

    "The purchase invoices are in the storage box."

    Ding Xu said, "I said hello to the police station in the town. Just take it and transfer it."

    "That''s right."

    His expression became dignified and asked, "do you know that Linjiang town is about to be demolished?"

    Zuo Yi nodded: "yes, I met uncle Zhong yesterday. He has told me and reminded me not to be fooled."

    Ding Xu asked again, "what are your plans?"

    "No plans."

    Zuo Yi said faintly, "I won''t sell any land. They tear them down. Just don''t bother me."

    "I''m afraid it''s not that simple..."

    Ding Xu said: "it is said that a new town in the south of the Yangtze River will be built here, with a large market of tens of billions. People have a great source. Even my boss''s boss is not qualified to touch water in it. How can they let go of you, the leading land near the river?"

    When the Zuo family bought land and built a house in Linjiang town a hundred years ago, they spent a lot of money to invite the master to see feng shui.

    The homestead enclosed by the master is said to be above the leader of the Qianlong in Linjiang. The Qianlong soared into the sky in the abyss. It is a real geomantic treasure land.

    This matter has been circulating in Linjiang Town, and the elders basically know it all.

    Although science and technology are now prosperous, the theory of Feng Shui has flourished for a long time, and has even been put into the classroom as a discipline.

    If Linjiang town is demolished, it is impossible for people to ignore the past, and in terms of location, it is also of great commercial value.

    Ding Xu is reminding Zuo Yi that he can''t carry others'' covet.

    However, Zuo Yi just smiled: "when were you afraid of me?"

    What a domineering answer!

    Ding Xu was speechless.

    Zuo Yi is indeed a fearless character, but he has made it clear that the other party''s strength can''t compete at all.

    Fear is not afraid. In addition, it is normal for ants not to know fear in the face of elephants, because they can''t imagine the size of the latter.

    He just hopes Zuo Yi can recognize the reality.

    "Then take care of yourself."

    Ding Xu had no interest in persuasion and said, "give me a call when it''s difficult. Don''t try to be strong."

    Zuo Yi said, "take care of yourself."

    Ding Xu waved goodbye to him, turned around and rode on another motorcycle and left with two men.

    Zuo Yi watched the tail light disappear at the intersection, and then came to the Harley motorcycle that already belonged to him.

    This Harley is very new. It shouldn''t have driven much mileage. It has the most typical American style. The left and right rows of thick exhaust pipes are shiny. It can''t even be covered by the night. It''s very eye-catching.

    The car hasn''t been licensed yet. Zuo Yi found the purchase invoice and information in the on-board storage box, as well as Ding Xu''s business card.

    It is printed with Ding Xu''s title - the general manager of resplendent entertainment.

    Below is Ding Xu''s mobile phone number and wechat.

    Zuo Yi slipped his business card into his trouser pocket and sat down on Haley.

    Zuo Yi used to have an off-road vehicle and later sold it. In fact, he also liked motorcycles. For this reason, he took a driving license test.

    And this Harley is the first motorcycle he really owns.

    -----------

    Third, send it to me and ask for all kinds of support!
