Volume 1 Chapter 77: The Secret Story of the Beggar Gang (I)

"Speaking of the transformation of the beggar gang, we have to start with the great change in the rivers and lakes more than 40 years ago. ”

Hong Jun sat on the sofa, opposite the curious baby Xie Budong. His voice was a little low, and he began to tell the unknown martial arts secrets in a heavy tone.

"The first prototype of the beggar gang appeared at the end of the Tang Dynasty, since the Anshi Rebellion after the Tang Dynasty turned from extreme to decline, all over the festival made the army self-respecting, the imperial power once fell to the lowest point, to Zhu Wen killed the lord and called the emperor to establish the Later Liang, opened five generations of troubled times, wars were frequent, the people were displaced, and the group of beggars gradually became larger.

In the beginning, beggars lived at the lowest level, and their lives were as cheap as mustard, and gradually some ambitious people who were forced to beg gathered all the beggars around them together to form organized and large-scale groups.

After decades of war, many soldiers were unwilling to surrender after being defeated, and did not want to go back to continue to be cannon fodder, so they fled one after another and gradually joined the "beggar gang" organization, since then the beggar gang initially has its own combat effectiveness.

When the Great Song Dynasty was founded, after years of development, the beggar gang has basically spread all over the beggar group in China, not only the land of the Song Dynasty, but also the countries like the Northern Han and Southern Tang Dynasty that have not yet been conquered by the Song.

No one knows what they talked about, but after that, the army of the Great Song Dynasty suddenly became more and more accurate in the intelligence of the enemy country, and every time the enemy could be caught off guard by the enemy, after more than ten years of conquest, the Great Song Dynasty had almost unified the entire Central Plains.

Who would have thought that the untouchables who crouched in the corner every day would be the key to victory in the war.

Since then, the status of the beggar gang has been officially recognized by the Central Plains martial arts, and many ambitious and disdainful knights who are attached to the so-called famous and decent have chosen to join this civilian group.

This big is not the first in the world in terms of strength, but it means that the beggars have disciples all over the world, and everyone knows about it.

In the future, every time there is a big turmoil, there will inevitably be a beggar gang figure, the seventh generation of the gang leader Jiang Kuang assassinated the enemy generals, so that what should have been a catastrophe disappeared, and the eighth generation of the gang leader "Jian Hair" Wang Jiantong Although he did not do anything too brilliant during his reign, he passed the position of the gang leader to a foreign child, that is, the famous Qiao Feng Qiao gang leader, there are gang statistics, from the first generation of gang leader Zhuang Fangyi to today, Qiao Feng's martial arts realm is the highest and most powerful.

After Qiao's gang leader, the beggar gang produced several celebrities, such as the 'Nine-Fingered Beggar' Hong Qigong, Huang Rong, 'Zhen Three Realms' Bi Daofan, and the Manchu Dynasty's Su Chahar Ercan, etc., all of whom are famous figures in the world.

Since the fall of the dynasty, the beggars gradually disappeared into the ground, and did not participate in the war in which foreign guns and artillery coexisted, so although their strength was preserved, their prestige fell because of the condemnation of "sitting back and watching the people suffer and being alone, and deserving of the chivalrous title".

More than forty years ago, a group of mysterious people quietly infiltrated Wanluo Island and attacked the secret room where the treasure was hidden, it is said that this team of only twenty-two people, but they performed twenty-six different kinds of mastery, and the gang leader was already an eighth-order master at the time, but he was finally defeated by the opponent's outnumbered people and was seriously injured.

And the mysterious man escaped after only snatching part of the martial arts cheats under the desperate resistance of the gang leader.

At that time, it was my grandfather's generation who was in charge of the help, and after the helper was seriously injured, he took refuge in the secret room of the South Island to recuperate, and my grandfather naturally took over the internal affairs of the gang as the superintendent. I thought that the helper would come out after a two-year or three-year retreat at most, but who knew that he had waited for thirteen years without seeing a figure, my grandfather was anxious to lead the four beams and eight pillars into the secret room, but found that there was no figure anymore.

The helper left a letter, claiming that he had gone out to look for the lost treasure of his ancestors and ancestors.

Since then, it has been another twenty years, and the four beams of the older generation are all old, and the longevity yuan has not increased much before breaking through the eighth order, so the older generation has passed on the position to the next generation, that is, my uncle's generation.

Seven years ago, my uncle Hong Liang took over the gang affairs and officially took over the affairs of the gang, at the beginning he was still conscientious and did a good job, and made everyone praise him in terms of life and righteousness, but as he became more and more powerful, his own power was cultivated, and his ambitions also swelled, and he first framed the "Tuo Tianliang" who did not agree with him Chen Hong's crime of massacring civilians, directly killed Chen Hong outside the island without trial, and then quickly promoted his cronies, and when the older generation discovered his ambitions, Hong Liang had sat firmly in the first place in less than five years.

Although he has coveted that position for a long time, he is afraid of the old gangmaster's divine might, and still does not dare to usurp the throne and call the gang leader, but he, the "Qingtian Liang", is already a well-deserved uncrowned king.

Now all the people who don't agree with him have been eradicated by him with thunderous means, except for his people, only a part of the entire gang has a neutral old seniority, most of them are above the level of elders with more than seven bags, they neither cooperate nor object, and Hong Liang has no need to fall out with them. This time he is so cautious about taking you to the island, because if he can recover the supreme secret lost by the beggars, then his prestige will inevitably rise to an unparalleled status, and even if he doesn't beat the dog, I'm afraid no one will have any reason to oppose him if he wants to run for the position of gang leader. ”

After saying this in one go, Hong Jun drank saliva and rested for a while, Xie Budong pondered for a while and asked, "What is the character of this Hong Liang, and what is the strength?"

"Although Hong Liang is my uncle, I have never been able to understand him. ”

Hong Jun thought for a while, and continued: "When I was a child, I was very close to him, at that time he was kind, never quarreled with anyone, and occasionally encountered unfair treatment, he always laughed and never minded, at that time everyone said that he was benevolent and righteous, and he would become a great thing in the future." Later, in the early days of his tenure as Qingtianliang, he worked hard to lead the development of the gang with each passing day, and it was from that time that the two groups of Taiyue and Taihua dominated the entire Taidong Province and became the pillar industry of Taidong.

But in recent years, since his ambition began to swell, those who looked down on him or even bullied him or their strength have been severely hit by him, no matter who goes against his will, or is expelled for a reason, or dies inexplicably, people are panicked for a while. But even so, his exploits are still indelible, because in his hands the beggars have survived the most difficult trough period and have returned to the top.

This pinnacle is not only economic, but also strength, in the martial arts world, gangs without grandmasters are not in the stream. And the gang without Wuzun can only be mixed at the second-rate level, even if there are more grandmasters, it will not help.

After the disappearance of the old gang leader, there has been no one in the beggar gang in forty years, Hong Liang broke through the seventh order in one fell swoop five years ago, and became the latest generation of martial masters, the gap between the eighth order and the seventh order is not as simple as one plus one equals two, and an eighth-order martial artist is enough to destroy a small gang. Soon after, he shone at the quadrennial martial arts tournament, defeating eight masters in a row to win the martial arts championship that year.

And among those eight people, two of them are also the existence of an eighth-order martial venerable."
