Chapter 181: The Great Shopkeeper!

In the battle of Songhelou, the entire capital was shocked.

On the first night of entering Beijing, the two heads of the six gates of Jinling made a big move in the Songhe Tower, killing 17 guards of the Songhe Tower, and countless people were seriously injured.

In the capital, various versions of rumors have spread in the streets. Some people say that the two of us lost money in a hurry, and the result was a big fight, and some people said that they were trapped by love, and even worse, said that the two of us were jumped by immortals in Songhe Tower and were forced to shoot in a hurry.

Songhelou is not an ordinary restaurant in the capital, which represents the interests of many parties behind it, and it is also the result of the long-term balance of major forces. But this balance was broken by the two stunned young men who had just entered Beijing.

That night, the major forces in the capital began to wrestle secretly, and as the parties involved in this matter, I, Zhang Youqian, and Li Muge drank at a barbecue restaurant in the east of the city.

Li Muge was still depressed about Jin Ruyi's poisoning, and Zhang Youqian went to exhale happily, but although the killing was simple, the handling after the killing also made us a little worried.

In the middle of the night, the owner of the barbecue restaurant said, "Three sons, we are closing." Zhang Youqian asked, how is the business of your barbecue?

The boss began to complain, saying that he had never made any money since he bought the store more than ten years ago, and he wanted to sell it several times. However, for some reason, no one took over the shop. Fortunately, every year on the summer solstice, there will be a guest official who will come here to eat, and every time he spends a lot of money, he rewards thousands of taels of silver. If it weren't for him, our whole family would have drunk the northwest wind.

Li Muge looked up at the plaque in the foyer and never looked away. I wondered, is there a problem with this plaque?

Li Muge took a deep breath and said very surely, the four words "watching the wind and barbecue" came from the hands of Emperor Lingzong.

These four words have no signature, no seal, and the plaque is made of sycamore wood, which is tattered and inconspicuous.

However, Li Muge cultivated the history manuscript of the Lingzong in the Hanlin Academy, and came into contact with countless imperial pens and imperial approvals of Zhu Wuneng every day, since he can be so sure, there is no doubt that this plaque was written by the Lingzong.

Zhang Youqian took out a stack of silver tickets, handed them to the boss, and said that this is a thousand taels of silver, you should repair this shop.

The boss saw that Zhang Youqian was generous, and he didn't know what Zhang Youqian meant, so he didn't reach out to pick it up, and hesitated, although our store is a little old, if we repair it, it won't cost so much money.

I smiled, take it and leave quickly, this silver should be compensated to you in advance, prepare more wine, there is nothing for you here.

The owner of the barbecue restaurant looked inexplicable, and a thousand taels of silver was enough to take down this barbecue restaurant, but since we spoke, he had to leave.

I said to Li Muge, you can go too.

Li Muge looked at the two of us and said, that day in Jinling, the two brothers saved my life, and today they fought for me again in Songhelou, if I leave at this time, it is not kind to be brothers. Although I don't know martial arts, I still have the strength to do both.

I say that you are not there or not, the nature is very different. If you're not here, tonight here will be a vendetta in the rivers and lakes, and if you are here, the government will intervene.

Li Muge hesitated slightly, thought through the joints, he was not ambiguous, stood up and bowed, thanked him for his great kindness, and said goodbye.

We moved a long table and sat under the Guanfeng barbecue restaurant to drink openly.

On the tea scene, the figures on the long street flickered, and nearly 100 Jianghu guests held swords and approached us, draining the water around the entire barbecue restaurant.

Coming out of the Songhe Tower, our every move was watched by several groups of people, so we did not deliberately hide our whereabouts.

I said, it's finally here.

Zhang Youqian said, just came.

Different from the ruthless thugs and gangsters in Songhelou, these people are real people in the rivers and lakes, and there are many masters of the realm.

As for the masters of the Zhixuan Realm, they are all famous and surnamed people who can open mountains and establish factions on the rivers and lakes, this kind of group fight on the streets of the capital, win, have no face to say, lose, and are even more embarrassed, they disdain to participate.

Being able to gather so many people in such a short period of time, and even the uniforms of the Sihetang are so uniform, it can be seen that the forces behind the Songhe Tower are not ordinary.

Sihetang is the largest gang in the capital, or even the only gang, controlling most of the underground forces in the capital, including green houses, casinos, smuggling, kidnapping, extortion and other businesses.

This kind of gang has a kind of characteristic, that is, there are many people, few masters, great power, low martial arts, and many businesses rely on the collusion of officials and businessmen, rather than fighting bravely.

After all, this is the capital, if there are ten or eight masters of the Channel, even the emperor Lao Tzu can't sleep well, and he will kill you in minutes. The surname of the master of the Sihetang Hall is Zhao, and he is known as the Ninth Master. However, Zhao Jiuye is just the person on the platform, the real master, who has always been hiding behind the scenes, very mysterious.

I glanced at Zhang Youqian, why did so many people come?

According to our original estimate, we thought that there were three or five masters coming, but after we subdued it, we got the six-door interrogation room, and used some means to find out the person who poisoned Jin Ruyi and set up a bureau to frame Li Muge. But all of a sudden, hundreds of people came, and they didn't give us the slightest chance.

Zhang Youqian asked me rhetorically, what should I do?

I held out a finger and said, a word.

Zhang Youqian said, do it!

I quickly shook my head, I mean, run.

At this time, the middle-aged man led by us had already come to us, and the two of them understood, lifted the table, rushed into the house, and closed the door.

The middle-aged man said, Songhe Tower is the field of the Sihetang, you picked the Songhe Tower, that is to slap the face of the Sihetang, the husband dares to act, it is a man who will go with us.

With a bang, the door of the Guanfeng barbecue restaurant was demolished.

More than a dozen axes were thrown at us, and Zhang Youqian and I saw this, and hurriedly lifted a table, and the sound of clanging bells was endless.

The middle-aged man said, demolish this place, capture one person alive, reward 100 taels of silver, and kill 50 taels of silver!

Boom, boom.

Knives, swords, and axes were chopped together, and this Guanfeng barbecue was demolished almost instantly, and the two of us retreated while fighting.

Fighting in a group is a technical job, pay attention to the golden horn and silver edge of the straw belly, the most taboo is to be attacked on all sides, a little careless, it is easy to be made dumplings.

However, the middle-aged man said that it was a lot of money to capture us alive, so those people were very measured and tried not to greet the vital points, so that the pressure on the two of us was reduced a lot.

Seeing that everyone was tied, the middle-aged man shouted, capture 100 taels alive and kill 500 taels!

There must be a brave man under the heavy reward, as soon as these words came out, everyone in the barbecue restaurant became a martial arts master, and they all didn't want to die, and the swords, guns, swords, and halberds slashed at us.

We did our best and climbed onto the roof. However, on the long street, surrounded by black and dark people, there are people from the courtyard hall everywhere.

We both gasped.

At this moment, a group of officers and soldiers with torches rushed in from the long street. Those people in the rivers and lakes in Sihetang, no matter how bold they are, they dare not oppose the government on the territory of the capital.

The person who came was none other than Xiaosheng ranked seventh on the list of rivers and lakes, and the chief catcher and chief shopkeeper of the six doors, Lu Zhongyuan.

(Recently, there is no day without getting drunk, one meal at noon and one at night, headache and splitting, 2K more.) )
