Chapter 14 Determination

The gang thug who kicked open the door of Lucien's house saw that there was no response inside, so he rushed in to have a look, then backed out and said to the leader with an ordinary and unobtrusive face: "Brother Jackson, there is no one inside. , things are neat."

Jackson said with a friendly smile: "It took a lot of time to deceive the old Cohen about this kid's details, I thought I would be late, hehe, although Mag and Andre are idiots and trash, But at least it's useful."

When the gang thugs around him heard him mention Mag and Andre, they immediately thought of Mag clutching his lower body and howling, and couldn't help but feel the wind blowing through his crotch, while Andre standing in the front Silently rejoicing, if the boy ran away with things and money, his end would be very miserable. Of course, it would be much better than Mag who was asserted by the doctor that he needed to lie in bed for a week.

"Andre, go in and look for something strange." Jackson ordered.

Andre just walked in without the slightest hesitation when he was about to perform meritorious service.

After a few minutes, Andre came out holding a lot of odds and ends with a strange expression: "Brother Jackson, there are a lot of 'garbage' in this kid's box."

Lucien sighed in his heart, these are things that haven't had time to be processed, and when he saw them at first glance, he would definitely associate them with garbage. If he knew that he had sold goods in the market area these days, as long as he had A normal person's IQ should be able to think of a way to make a fortune.

And I am alone, and I am afraid of being discovered, so I don't bring many things back every time, and I can only earn some negligible copper fils. But if the Aaron gang controls the garbage dump by the river, with their hands, and Familiarity with and mastery of the market area may be a "gateway" that earns a lot of money. In this way, they will definitely not give up, so they have to find other ways to make money.

Jackson glanced at the garbage that Andre was holding, shook his head and curled his lips: "I think I know where he got the copper from, hey, the church disposes of it every three days, so we never thought about the Belen River There will be 'treasures' hidden in the rubbish dumps beside the river. The rubbish from the palace, noble districts, manors outside the city, musicians' associations, blacksmiths' guilds, mercenary unions, etc. will all be concentrated by the Belem River. Hehe, The rubbish in the eyes of nobles may not really be rubbish."

In fact, after learning from Andre and Mag that Lucien had sent garbage from the Musicians Association outside the city, Jackson had a guess about it, but now it has only been confirmed.

After delivering this speech, Jackson smiled very kindly: "Thank you Lucien, let us have another road that shines with charming money, so let's thank him with our enthusiasm, and go to his house. I smashed all the things I had, and the copper fer and silver Nar I found belong to myself, and whoever finds him in the future and "thanks" him mercilessly can come to me to receive a generous reward."

In Jackson's eyes, Lucien was far from the point where he needed someone to guard him. As an organized, disciplined, genuine gangster, he had a lot of things to do every day, so he would waste time and manpower for such a small person.

The gangsters cheered. If Lucien's room was not too small and the number of people it could accommodate was limited, they might all rush in.

Ding ding dong dong shattering sounded one after another.

Lucien, who was hiding not far away, could tell from the sound: "The crockpot was broken...the table was smashed...they are looking for the money I hid..." Lucien clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth. Said in my heart.

But Lucien also understands that there are more than a dozen gangster thugs there, and if he tries to stop them, he will only be beaten severely, or even killed, so no matter how angry, aggrieved, or angry, he has to forcibly hold back .

No status, no fist, no strength, there is nothing to do when you encounter these villains, hooligans, scoundrels, and scum. As for the law, you can probably guess from their arrogant behavior that if you take the lead, it will be useless.

"If that witch hadn't gone to the cemetery to steal the bones, she wouldn't have been burned to death."

"Since magic still exists, dark creatures, heresies, etc. still exist, there is probably a place where magic is not so discriminated against and rejected. I just need to be careful when learning magic, and when I have the power to protect myself, I will find a real refuge. place."

"The danger is great, but the reward is also great. If you want to be rich and enjoy yourself, how can you go smoothly without taking a little risk? Even if you are in business, you have to endure the exploitation of nobles and gangsters, as well as the competition from your opponents. If you are not careful, you will go bankrupt and even die."

Many thoughts that Lucien usually suppressed in his heart finally broke through the cage and echoed in his mind, like the temptation of the devil, so he didn't think about it at all. Assuming there is really a place where he can learn magic safely, why? The witch is still coming to Artaud.

Countless thoughts and desires converged in Lucien's heart, but before he could make up his mind, he suddenly heard the voice of Aunt Alisa: "You bloody villains, what are you doing?!"

The clothes that the textile guild needs to be cleaned can only be collected at ten o'clock. After arranging for Ivan to pick mushrooms outside the city, Alisa heard the sound of smashing things before she went out.

She wielded a long wooden spoon and walked towards Aaron's gang, trying to stop them from destroying Lucien's cabin.

"Get her aside." Jackson pointed at Alisa.

The two thugs who hadn't been able to get into the house rushed out, rolled up their sleeves, and walked towards Aunt Alisa viciously, trying to push her aside.

However, they underestimated Aunt Alisa's strength. She swung the spoon with a hand that was comparable to a bear's paw, and with a heavy blow, the gangster thug who walked to the front staggered and screamed in pain.

Jackson looked around with his eyes, and immediately two more thugs followed.

Although Alisa is strong, wide and heavy, and very intimidating, the fighters on the opposite side are all thugs who make a living with their fists. land.

A heavy punch hit Alisa on the shoulder. Even though the fat had weakened, she still let out a cry of pain, but she didn't flinch, and kept moving forward, yelling: "You guys stop, the sheriff immediately Here we come."

Lucien behind the wall not far away, after seeing Aunt Alisa being beaten, finally couldn't help cursing himself: "Is he still a man?!"

Although I have only "knowledge" for a few days, my feelings for Aunt Alisa and Uncle Joel are not too strong, but at this moment, Aunt Alisa was beaten to prevent others from destroying her hut, and But I hid myself and didn't dare to come forward, it was something I couldn't accept.

Therefore, Lucien clenched his fists, glanced at the front of the cabin, shook his head and cursed: "Fuck!"

Then he rushed out, aiming at Jackson, who was alone by his side!

Stumbling and staring, Lucien, who was not far from the hut, rushed to the vicinity of Jackson in just a few steps, and then jumped on him.

At this moment, Jackson came to his senses and turned his head to look this way in surprise, but before he could do anything else, Lucien slammed into his body hard, knocking him to the ground , the two wrestled together.

Lucien pressed Jackson's hands with his body and his left hand to prevent him from pulling out the dagger that might be on his body, while his right hand desperately tried to reach Jackson's throat. As long as he held his throat, he would If he restrains it, he can temporarily control the situation.

But Jackson's ability to become the leader of Aaron's gang didn't just rely on acumen and ruthlessness. He was also a thug, so he had rich experience. The suppressed hand moved slightly with its elbow, hitting Lucien's ribs repeatedly.

There is no room to move, and the elbow doesn't have much strength, but the rib itself is a relatively sensitive and fragile place. Under Jackson's frequent blows, Lucien gritted his teeth in pain, but Lucien, who had been hit by Gary, , knowing that at this time, he should not panic and had to hold on, so he held back the pain, and his right hand finally touched Jackson's throat.

Just when Lucien was about to pinch it hard, his right rib hurt, and he flew up and fell heavily to the ground.

Relying on his rich experience, Jackson finally supported the gang thugs around him and rushed over, kicking Lucien to the side.

And the thugs in the room, the thugs who stopped Alisa also ran to each other at this time.

Just as Lucien was about to stand up, his toes and fists fell like a torrential rain, making him unable to resist at all. He could only hold his head calmly, curled up into a shrimp shape, and protect his vitals, leaving the rest to the pain of the gangsters. beat up.

Being beaten and rolled around on the ground, the pain came into his mind, but Lucien still maintained the minimum calmness and posture of being beaten, otherwise it would be miserable to be kicked to the vital parts like a Mag.

But at this time, Lucien had a feeling of floating soul, retching, everything around him became in a trance, the voice was noisy, unreal like a shaking movie, and Aunt Alisa's cry was far away. Yuan Di seemed to come from another world: "Let him go..."

There was no time to make the decision just now. Under such circumstances, Lucien finally made up his mind: "We must master inhuman and extraordinary power, even magic!"

"Even if it's a usury loan, you have to collect enough money to learn Chinese characters in a short time!"

Jackson looked at Lucien who was being beaten to and fro, moved his arm that was a little sore from the pressure just now, went up and kicked twice, and then said to his thugs: "Okay, this is it So far, the lesson is enough, this kid has a friend who is Sir Wayne's official knight squire, there is no need to kill anyone."

If it is necessary to kill people for this level of things, and it is a good friend of a certain knight's attendant, the Aaron gang has already killed Alto's blood, but in fact, the Aaron gang has been able to control the city. The door area and part of the market area rely on not doing too much, otherwise the real controllers of Aalto, the nobles, bishops, and priests with terrifying power, would have made them disappear long ago. Inextricably linked relationships are no exception.

The thugs stopped, and looked around Lucien fiercely. Jackson looked at Lucien, who was bleeding from his nose and bleeding from the corner of his mouth, and seemed to be in a daze. Too immature, well, I hope you will stop being greedy about things outside the city, otherwise, you will not only be beaten up, I believe Mag will very much hope to discuss life with you."

The matter of controlling the garbage dump by the river must not be concealed, so Jackson didn't think about killing people to silence him.

After speaking, Jackson saw Lucien looking at him with blood on his face, and replied with a hoarse voice, "Okay."

This made Jackson feel a little weird, but he didn't think much about it. He called the gangsters to bring the items that Lucien hadn't had time to deal with, as well as the forty-five copper fils that were found from him, and triumphantly leave.
