Chapter 1414 - 1429: Ambushed
Scarface nodded after hearing this, then said, "So that’s how it is. Then what do you think we should do now?"
Lin Mu pondered for a while, thought it over and said, "Instead of waiting for them to come mess with us, we might as well take the initiative and play with them a bit."
"Play a bit? How are we playing?" Scarface asked, puzzled.
"It’s simple. Tang Sect’s industry in North China is huge, and they’ve got even more businesses in Handan City, right?" Lin Mu said.
"Of course, Tang Sect has basically already taken control of Handan’s economic industrial chain." Scarface nodded in reply.
"Then it’s simple. We hit them." Lin Mu said.
"Hit them? How we hitting them?" Scarface asked, confused.
"Obviously with what we’re best at. Send a few guys to make a scene at their company. Since that bastard won’t let us live in peace, we sure as hell won’t let them live in peace! Tonight, find a few brothers to go over and do some damage or something. That shouldn’t be a problem, right?" Lin Mu said with a smile.
"Of course no problem. Can’t say we’re good at anything else, but when it comes to smashing things up, my boys are damn good at it." Scarface nodded and said.
"Then let’s do it like that. They wanna play? We’ll keep them company." Lin Mu said.
"Alright, I’ll have Erwa make a call and have them set it up. Even though Tang Sect’s strength in Handan City is very strong, I, Scarface, still have a bit of a name on the streets. I’m definitely not scared of them. As long as they dare to mess with me, I’ll mess them up too." Scarface said as he went off to have Erwa make the call.
Lin Mu also took out his phone and called Earth Wolf. Those two bastards still hadn’t finished their drinking—don’t tell him they really went to the bathroom to pick up the soap after drinking?
He made a call and no one picked up. Fuck, these two bastards aren’t really doing some gay shit right now, are they?
He called twice in a row, still no one answered. Lin Mu didn’t call again. When they came back he’d definitely have to ask those two properly—is doing gay shit really that爽?
Lin Mu had just put away his phone when the door opened. Four or five guys carried Earth Wolf and King Kong in. The moment this group came in, Lin Mu was stunned. Damn, Earth Wolf and King Kong were covered head to toe in blood, practically two walking blood men. And he could clearly see two wounds on King Kong, both still bleeding non-stop, one on his leg and one on his waist.
"What the hell happened?" Lin Mu shot up from the sofa. The two of them were drinking just fine—how’d they end up like this? But Lin Mu understood at once. These two must’ve gotten ambushed after getting drunk. He could smell a heavy stench of alcohol on both of them. But seeing the situation now, the two were already sober. Of course Lin Mu had been careless too. In a situation like this, he should’ve reminded them to drink less. After all, once they’re drunk, no matter how good they are, their movements are nowhere near as sharp as when they’re sober.
The security guys helped King Kong and Earth Wolf sit down on the sofa, then quickly brought bandages. For people like them who live on the streets, getting hurt in fights is normal, so the Hai Family kept bandages around.
They used alcohol to clean the two men’s wounds, then bandaged them up. Luckily the Hai Family had top-quality Yunnan Baiyao, and Lin Mu was skilled in medicine, so he first sealed a few of their acupoints to stop the bleeding, then sprinkled on the Baiyao. Otherwise, the two might’ve gone into shock from blood loss. Even though they were like two fat bulls, they still couldn’t take blood gushing like that!
"Fuck, Earth Wolf, what the hell is going on?" Lin Mu couldn’t help snapping, pissed off. Think about it—Earth Wolf and King Kong both had decent skills. How the hell do you go out for a drink and come back like this?
"Boss, we got set up." Earth Wolf’s face was full of frustration. Even though he had a lot of wounds, none were fatal, so to him it wasn’t a big deal.
"Damn it, can you have a little pride? Tell me, how’d you get set up?" Lin Mu said with clear contempt.
"Damn, we just drank too much, that’s all! Weren’t paying attention. We grabbed a cab to head back, and on the way we got ambushed. The other side even had guns. Luckily Brother King Kong took a bullet for me, otherwise my little life would be done for. Because we were drunk, our movements were clumsy, so we barely broke through the encirclement and ran back." Earth Wolf said gloomily.
Lin Mu glanced at King Kong. King Kong’s face was pale. After all, he’d taken a few bullets for Earth Wolf. Bullets aren’t exactly easy to take. But you had to admit, their relationship was hotter than gay sex—this beast King Kong actually stepped in front of bullets for Earth Wolf.
"King Kong, you alright? Your body okay?" Lin Mu asked, looking at him.
"I’m fine, just need some rest." King Kong waved his hand and said.
Lin Mu nodded, then said, "Fuck, looks like the moment we slip up, they’ll make a move. Tonight I’m gonna pay the Tang Family a visit myself."
"Boss, why don’t we wait till we’re healed and go together?" Earth Wolf said.
"Relax, nothing will happen. I know what I’m doing." Lin Mu patted Earth Wolf on the shoulder, then said, "You focus on healing up. When you’re better, there’ll be things for you to do!"
Earth Wolf nodded. "This little injury is nothing. Two, three days of rest and I’ll be fine."
"Just heal properly." Lin Mu said, then turned to King Kong. "This time we really owe you, King Kong!"
To be honest, Lin Mu genuinely admired King Kong for taking bullets for Earth Wolf. In a critical moment like that, throwing yourself in harm’s way for a brother, taking knives and bullets—that’s what true men of the jianghu do! There was a bit of an ancient swordsman’s vibe to it!
"Brother Lin, no need to be polite. Brothers should look out for each other." King Kong said with a thick, honest face.
"Good brother. Don’t worry, I won’t let you bleed for nothing. Tonight I’ll get this debt back for you." Lin Mu patted King Kong on the shoulder.
Very soon, Haihua arranged rooms for King Kong and Earth Wolf to rest. For guys like them, built like small mountains, these little injuries were nothing. But they were still flesh and blood, so with a bit of proper rest they’d recover fast.
As for Tang Sect, Lin Mu was definitely going to pay a visit! Even if it was just for his brothers, as the boss he had to stand up for them! And if Flying Dragon Group kept swallowing this crap, it’d be bad sooner or later. So Lin Mu chose to go on the offensive. After all, the best defense is offense!
...
After dinner, Lin Mu drove Haihua’s sports car out of the Hai Family estate. He’d already investigated Tang Hongwei’s address long ago, so twenty minutes later, Lin Mu arrived at the gate of Tang Hongwei’s place and parked right in front of Tang Sect’s entrance.
Since he was coming, he might as well make it a good, clean fight. Lin Mu parked the car at the gate, then quietly slipped in through Tang Sect’s main entrance. But as soon as the car stopped, the alarm at the door went off.
