That night, Shacheng stayed awake all night.
Some were so busy killing that they had no chance to sleep, while others were so frightened that they dared not fall asleep.
Sand City has not experienced such a situation for many years.
early morning.
The sun rises and its rays shine upon the earth.
In the past, the north of Sand City would have come alive at this time, with vendors starting their business day after day.
Today, except for the patrol team of the Red Fire Gang wearing red jackets, ordinary people kept their doors tightly closed.
Half an hour passed.
Finally, someone sneakily opened the door and looked outside.
Another half hour later, the brave ones began to go out.
Some people went out and nothing happened, and others gradually grew bolder and began to walk out onto the streets.
Bang bang…
Suddenly, there was a sound of gongs.
The sound of the gong was like the death knell, scaring back the people who had just stepped onto the street.
"From now on, the Chihuo Gang will respect its leader Yan Xiongyan. All shops in the north of the city must come to the Chihuo Gang headquarters in three days to discuss the monthly payment. If you fail to come, you will be killed!
The rest of the people can live their lives as usual. If anyone causes trouble, they will be beheaded!
In addition, if anyone finds Huang Song’s wife Li Shan’er, he will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver. If anyone hides her, he will be beheaded! "
The sound of gongs approached, and the high pitched voices echoed through every household.
The sound of the gong continued along the street, and the voice of the person beating the gong reached everyone's ears.
"The world has changed..."
"I never thought that the Red Fire Gang would change its owner overnight!"
"Isn't Yan Xiong the former head of the Yan Hall of the Red Fire Gang? How could he be so powerful that he could kill Huang Song, a ninth-rank warrior?"
"Idiot, if someone can kill a ninth-rank person, he must be a ninth-rank person too. Be careful next time!"
…
With the ringing of the gong, the announcement spread throughout the north of the city.
Everyone knew that the emperor in the north of the city had changed, from Huang Song to a young man in his twenties.
But no one dared to underestimate this young man.
The fact that he was able to accumulate strength under Huang Song and successfully rebel shows that he is a capable person.
The screams that were heard everywhere last night also proved how cruel this young man was.
The headquarters of the Red Fire Gang.
Bang…
Yan Xiong kicked the person kneeling on the ground in front of him away.
"Boss, Boss, spare my life!"
Kneeling on the ground was a burly man in his thirties. He was quite sturdy and had a fierce-looking face, but at this moment his fierce face was full of fear and cold sweat kept streaming down his forehead.
"Useless, useless! I told you to keep an eye on Li Shan'er. I didn't expect you to neglect your duty and ruin my plans."
Yan Xiong's handsome face was full of coldness and his eyes were filled with anger.
He didn't expect that he was just going to Li's house.
It was only an hour, but something happened in the gang that made him want to vomit blood.
After taking down the headquarters last night, Yan Xiong sent people to take control of Huang Song's entire family.
Because he was soft-hearted, he did not kill him, but let the subordinate named Han Qi guard him.
But unexpectedly, this guy started drinking with other guards while on guard and got drunk.
Others discovered that Huang Song's wife, Li Shenzhou's daughter, had actually escaped.
Just as one hidden danger was solved, another one suddenly appeared.
And this hidden danger escaped from their own hands.
How could he not be angry
He exuded a murderous aura that frightened Han Qi so much that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"My Lord! Han Qi has always been loyal, and I don't think he did it on purpose. I hope that My Lord will spare him this time for the sake of his past friendship, and let him make amends for his crime."
Yan Xiong's anger was visible to the naked eye. Seeing that Yan Xiong was about to kill Han Qi, Asan, who had been standing aside, hurriedly pleaded for mercy.
call…
Yan Xiong took a deep breath.
"I've already sent people out to look for him. You should also take people out to look for him. I don't care whether he's dead or alive. If you can't do it, I'll kill you myself."
Yan Xiong gritted his teeth and stared at Han Qi.
If it were someone else.
Yan Xiong would have killed him with one blow long ago.
But Han Qi is different.
He saved the life of his predecessor three years ago. Although the person he saved was not the current Yan Xiong, in the eyes of others, he saved the life of his predecessor.
In addition, although Han Qi is not good at martial arts, he is loyal to him.
Therefore, it was neither reasonable nor moral for him to kill him because of this.
This will dishearten other gang members.
Yan Xiong can be ruthless to his enemies, but he must never let his subordinates think that he is doing the same to his own people.
If he is ruthless to his enemies, people in the gang will think he can accomplish great things and will have more faith in him.
But if he is cruel to the people in the gang, it will give people the impression that he is difficult to get along with.
As a powerful mind, this impression must never be allowed.
Otherwise, the lifespan of this force will definitely not be long.
Of course, this does not mean that Yan Xiong must be extremely kind to his subordinates.
Rewarding merits and punishing faults is what a force must possess if it wants to accomplish things.
Rewards should be reasonable and punishments should be acceptable to everyone.
Han Qi's mistake this time really deserved his death.
But that depends on whether he can make up for his mistakes.
If possible, then give him a lighter sentence.
If not, then it is not Yan Xiong's fault. One can only blame himself for not seizing the opportunity to redeem himself.
"Thank you, Boss. I'll go right away!"
Upon hearing this, Han Qi hurriedly thanked him, then hurriedly retreated and began to gather people.
"Go and incorporate those who have surrendered into our team. Add a few people to each team. Remember that our people must maintain their advantage over them. These people have just surrendered, so they must have other plans. We must be careful to guard against them."
Looking at Han Qi's back, Yan Xiong spoke.
"What about the rest of the people?" asked Ah San.
"The others will continue to be detained and released in batches."
Yan Xiong confessed.
"Also, have Jingyun take people to search for Li Shan'er."
As he spoke, Yan Xiong suddenly thought that since Li Shan'er had escaped, she would definitely go to the Li Mansion first.
After all, for her who didn't know that the Li Mansion had been massacred by Yan Xiong, the Li Mansion was the best place to go.
Thinking of this, he immediately said:
"Take your people to the Li residence immediately. Li Shan'er will definitely go there.
The streets were full of our people, so she didn't dare walk on the main street and could only take the alleys. The alleys were not connected to each other, and at her speed, it would definitely take some time for her to get from the headquarters to the Li Mansion.
You go and ambush, maybe you can catch them red-handed."
"Yes!" Upon hearing this, Asan hurried out to gather people and rush to Li's Mansion.
After sending Asan away, Yan Xiong felt much more relieved.
Asan bound himself to Wen Chou's template, so naturally he learned Wen Chou's Qingying Lingshui Sleeves.
Although if a real fight breaks out, he won't be Bu Jingyun's opponent.
But it should never be underestimated.
With his shrewd character, he will never be disappointed if you give this kind of thing to me.
…
The original location of the Li Mansion.
The tall and majestic mansion of the past is no longer there. Only a dark ruin stands. A thin cloud of smoke slowly rises into the sky, as if telling something.
Outside the Li Mansion, many residents in the surrounding area held basins of water and sighed as they looked at the ruins of the Li Mansion.
"I never thought that the Li Mansion would become like this overnight!"
"I heard from Wang Laosan that when he went into the Li residence to put out the fire, it seemed that everyone inside had died before the fire broke out!"
"Who on earth is it? How could he be so cruel and slaughter an entire family?"
"Master Li is an eighth-rank warrior! Could he be dead too?"
…
In the crowd, two figures stood quietly.
"Who do you think it is?"
The young man asked aloud.
He was dressed in white and waving a folding fan in his hand. When others saw him, they couldn't help but praise him, saying "What a handsome man."
Half a step behind him was a fat man wearing a hat and dressed like a butler.
These two people were none other than Mr. Xu and Manager Ma.
