Sheng looked at Shen Gui's frowning brows and puzzled expression, picked up a wooden stick casually, and gathered the declining fire:

"Silver, what a good thing; You can not only buy a big house and a mansion, but also a beautiful wife and concubine, and you can also buy a fragrant car, a good horse, and a fine dress...... Who doesn't like these things, and who doesn't want them? For the old man, I have enjoyed these things, and I am tired of playing with them and seeing them through; But now these juniors haven't played it yet, and they haven't enjoyed it...... How can I stop them from getting rich? ”

Shen Gui listened to the tone of the other party's speech, and suddenly a flash of lightning suddenly appeared in his mind:

"Your old man...... Could it be that it is ...... to cross the sea? ”

"Exactly."

"The old man's surname is Sheng? Prosperous Sheng? Who is Wang Lei? ”

"Minjiang Nanlei, I haven't heard this name for a long time...... He's an old friend who's never met in his life, but who has been friends with each other for a long time......"

It turns out that Beisheng and Nanlei, who have been famous in the rivers and lakes for many years, have never met each other!

Over the years, there have been thousands of water thieves and water villages in Huayu Continent; It can be said that as long as there is water, except for a Yanlin Grand Canal, which is actually in the hands of the imperial court; All the rest of the waterways and lakes are controlled by various water villages. Although the horse bandits and thieves who gathered in the mountains and forests were arrogant enough, they still lacked one very important thing compared to the water thieves - silver. Throughout the entire Jianghu Road, the wealth of the water thieves is the top of the top.

The rivers and lakes are like this, where there is a pile of silver, there is no need to worry about the influx of fresh blood; With a steady stream of hematopoietic mechanisms, follow-up talents will slowly stand out. After the talent is normalized, it will also face the problem of redistribution of spheres of influence; After some open and secret fighting, those water villages with registered names on the rivers and lakes were respectively impressed by the leaders of the two thieves; All of a sudden, the green forest road on the water surface mixed with rice and food formed a north-south confrontation situation of dividing the river and ruling the river. Everyone knows the truth that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and those green forest colleagues, rivers and lakes are on the same road, and even the eyes of the imperial court are focused on the two water thieves in the north and south, waiting for the next earth-shattering war between the north and the south!

However, the princes among these two water thieves made the same choice under the same circumstances: both of them chose to restrain their subordinates and accept the peace of dividing the north and south to rule by dividing the river at the critical moment when they were one step away from being crowned king! Therefore, this "Battle of the Unification of Water Thieves", which has never been fought, has also achieved two heroes and heroes who are not born in the world: Wang Lei of Minjiang and Sheng Beichuan of Jiaodong; Later generations of the children of the green forest called these two heroes "South Thunder and North Sheng", which was cited as a beautiful talk through the ages.

Even if they have collected the large and small water villages in the north and south respectively, they are thieves who can't be put on the table after all, so how can they be the word "hero"? It's very simple, because both of them chose benevolence and righteousness, restrained their desires, and worked together to eliminate a great battle between the north and the south of the water thieves; Even if Wang Lei has disappeared, the waterways south of the Yangtze River have gradually fallen into the hands of the Liangjiang Alliance; But Sheng Beichuan in the north still restricts his disciples at all times, and has never stepped half a step south of the Huajiang River!

Heroes cherish heroes, heroes to heroes; The tacit understanding and mutual respect between these two people are enough to make all the children of the rivers and lakes admire and lead to an eternal story in the water thief industry!

The past is like smoke and unbearable.

Wang Lei, who is known as Wang Yutian, is now a dry skeleton in a grave; And the old man Sheng, whose real name is Sheng Beichuan, is now also trapped in Dengzhou City; Listening to his tone, even this last small piece of land, Dengzhou City, is about to be unable to hold on!

It is true that for various reasons, the two of them jointly gave up the great achievement of unifying the north and south waterways, and became two immortal monuments representing the morality of the rivers and lakes; But the old age of the two heroes seems to be quite unsatisfactory now.

Shen Gui looked at Sheng Beichuan in front of him, who was full of gloomy face, and felt a little sour and helpless in his heart. No matter how the Huayu continent changes, the fate of the people in the rivers and lakes is also the same. No matter how you choose to jump over the dragon gate in the heyday, the carp gritted its teeth and endured the pain of burning its tail, and finally turned into a nine-day dragon; Or choose to retreat bravely from the rapids and be a golden-scaled koi in a shallow stream in a bay pond with peace of mind; The result of fate will not change because of different choices, further stepping into the sea of swords and fires, taking a step back and falling into the abyss......

The fate of mortals can only be determined by the arrangement of heaven and luck; The way of heaven will not take personal good and evil as good or evil.

Since ancient times, beauties have sighed in the twilight, and heroes are not allowed to see white heads.

Even though Sheng Beichuan's evening scene is bleak, Shen Gui and Qi Yan are now also in a lawsuit; Even if they have the heart to act chivalrous and help this moral monument to eliminate foreign infiltration forces, they have to wipe their butts clean first! Otherwise, those new forces haven't had time to clear Dengzhou City, and Old Man Sheng will have to be cleared by the government first!

What a ridiculous thing this is! The word "government" will one day become a behemoth that Sheng Beichuan is unable to resist, should it be said that it is a good reincarnation of heaven? Or is it good to be deceived by others?

"It turns out that the old man Sheng Beichuan Sheng, who is famous in the rivers and lakes, but it is our brothers who have eyes and do not know Mount Tai and offended the predecessors! Don't dare to speak in front of real people, the old man Wang Lei Wang is an elder in the next generation, and he owes him a lot of personal debt. Our two brothers have taken the matter of your old man to heart; But now we also have a string of artillery on our heads, and staying here for a long time may bring disaster to your brothers......"

Sheng Beichuan frowned after hearing this, got up and looked at the clouds in the sky, then licked two more fingers, stretched out the hall to measure the direction of the wind, and then turned around and asked:

"When do you want to go?"

"Naturally, the sooner the better."

"Well, got it. By the way, how is the good brother Wang Lei? Is the water thief of Minjiang Road ......?"

"The Liangjiang Alliance has nothing to do with Old Man Wang, he has already washed his hands, and now he ...... Now I'm already traveling west......"

After Sheng Beichuan listened, he fell into silence for a long time. I don't know how long it took, a muffled thunder rumbled, and Sheng Beichuan woke up from the silence:

"In the last few days, the sea has been rough and rough, and I estimate that it will be three days later at the earliest, and I will have to go out to sea while it is dark...... In this case, old man, I will personally take the helm and accompany you on this night boat. ”

Although Shen Gui is also familiar with the way of meteorology, he is definitely not as good as Sheng Beichuan, who has eaten "drifting rice" all his life. Since he said three days, then it is the dragon lord who has appeared in the earth, and it must be three days before he can safely go to sea! As for the destination...... The old and the young are tacitly acknowledged.

After agreeing on the time to go to sea, the two brothers wore the robes and hats given by Sheng Beichuan and rushed back to the inn in the rain. The two of them had just crossed the threshold of the inn, and they wanted to go back to the room immediately to change into dry and loose clothes, but Shen Gui, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and sat back on the edge of the tea house behind the door.

Outside the half-hidden door of the inn, there are raindrops that continue to fall like a curtain of broken threads; In the front hall of the inn, which exuded a faint smell of dampness, the shopkeeper had just shouted Xiao Er's tea, and was now facing a half-open account book, quickly fiddling with the calculations. In the entire front hall, there were a total of eight tea houses, in addition to Shen Gui and Qi Yan, there were two tables with a total of five guests, who were pointing to account books or letters and other things, talking about something in a low voice, and did not pay special attention to the two brothers Shen and Qi who had just returned from the door......

Everything in this inn seems normal at first glance......

It didn't take long for the little second brother to shout "pay attention to the hot water", and at the same time brought them a pot of boiling water and two bowls of Haicheng green. Shen Gui raised his chin towards Qi Yan, and Qi Yan reached into his arms and shouted to the little second brother who was just about to turn around and leave:

"Hey I say, come back! Don't want the reward? ”

When the little second brother heard the word reward, he immediately burst into laughter; He carefully leaned the hot empty copper kettle on the edge of the pillar, and rubbed his hands twice with a white towel, and walked forward while rubbing each other, nodding and replying to Qi Yan's words:

"Look at it, as soon as the two of you entered the door of the shop yesterday, the villain saw that the two of you were by no means ordinary people! With the knowledge and bearing of the two of them, it is not something that ordinary rich families can raise! Don't look at our Dengzhou City to eat a dock meal, but although there are all kinds of guests coming and going, there is rarely a decent person all year round! Except for those iron roosters who are not plucked, it is the bitter little Liba, who can know the rules of drinking tea in the big city......"

This little two patted the horse's ass, and looked at Qi Yan carefully and eagerly; The two brothers also seemed to be amused by his unloadable appearance of a small boat, Qi Yan took out a small piece of silver slag with his right hand and stuffed it into his waist scarf, and slapped his chest with his left hand:

"Yes, the mouth is neat enough! Go to the back kitchen and see if there are any fresh snacks and fruits, and bring us some tea to accompany us. How can you just drink it like this, I want you to ask when you are drunk! ”

"Okay!"

The little second brother happily put away the reward money and happily walked in the direction of the back kitchen; Qi Yan withdrew his arm, deliberately revealing an extra iron token in his cuffs on the way, which quickly shook in front of Shen Gui's eyes; Shen Gui clearly saw that on this piece of pig iron, there were two vigorous and powerful characters "Lingyun".

Five Old Peaks, Lingyun Sword Sect, Iron Sword Order.

Shen Gui pouted and smiled disdainfully, and raised his chin towards the other two tables of pretending businessmen, Qi Yan stood up knowingly, pulled up a familiar smile, and walked straight to the two-person table in the corner......

With the deliberate sound of Qi Yan getting up, Shen Gui clearly captured some subtle changes in the direction of the fence cabinet: the rhythm of the shopkeeper's calculations appeared to be untimely and stagnant!
