Xiangyang is located in the northwest of Jingzhou, in the hinterland of the plain in the middle reaches of the Han River. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The Han River passes through the city, divides the Xiangyang and Fancheng on the north and south banks across the river, it is a famous city of mountains and rivers, borrows a river of spring water, and wins ten miles of scenery.

Xiangyang has always been a military and commercial center, and the streets of the city are criss-crossed, but it is also very lively.

Gurungzhong is only more than ten miles away from Xiangyang, and the Beggar Gang Aoki Conference is about to be held, and ordinary people naturally don't know about it, but the people in the rivers and lakes already know it.

The Aoki Conference is held every three years, but there is no fixed place, usually the location is determined by the gang leader, the beggar gang has a total of 28 rudders, because in the troubled times, the world is divided into three, so the beggar gang is also divided and ruled, although they all obey the orders of the gang leader, but the elders of the four parties are in charge of one side.

In order to balance the four directions, the location of the triennial Aoki Conference must also take into account the emotions of the four elders, and it will be held in the area under the jurisdiction of the four elders in turn.

The old Jianghu people still know a lot about the Aoki Conference of the Beggar Gang, and the Beggar Gang as the first gang in the world, and the various factions of the rivers and lakes are also indispensable to deal with, the disciples of the Beggar Gang are from the No. 4 Lake, so the Beggar Gang has always been very inclusive, among the previous leaders of the Beggar Gang, most of them have a high reputation in the rivers and lakes, of course, because of the power of the Beggar Gang itself, and there is another reason, that is, the Beggar Gang has always lived in harmony with other gangs.

Every time the Aoki Conference is held, there are always some people from the rivers and lakes who gather over, although they may not all be able to enter the venue, but for many people in the rivers and lakes, even if they are walking around, it seems to be a very face-saving thing, and when the Aoki Conference is held, the beggars will also appropriately invite some people with high reputation in the rivers and lakes as spectators.

June 18 was the day of the Aoki Conference, in fact, as early as a few days before the meeting, people from all walks of life in the rivers and lakes had already poured into Xiangyang, plus the disciples of the beggar gang from all walks of life who came to participate in the conference, so many people suddenly came, and the officers and soldiers in the ancient city of Xiangyang were more careful, and the number of officers and soldiers patrolling the streets also increased several times.

However, the Shenhou Mansion has existed for many years, and the major gangs in the rivers and lakes have already formed a set of rules, and they will never provoke the government until they have to, let alone make trouble, so although there are many people in the ancient city of Xiangyang, the order is quite good.

Beggars are the lowest people, begging along the street on weekdays, very lowly, but now inside and outside Xiangyang City, if they are dressed as beggar disciples, it is a very fashionable thing, and the beggar disciples who come from all over the country are not here to beg this time, so they walk in the streets and alleys, leaning their necks, but they are quite proud.

There is a street called Zizhen Street in the north of Xiangyang City, the street is not long, but it is very lively, there are many restaurants and tea shops on this street, it is already the middle of June, the weather in Xiangyang is also quite hot, passers-by like to ask for a bowl of herbal tea in the tea shop to cool off.

Today, there are many more customers in this tea shop than in the past, and even the gate is crowded with people, one by one, stretching their heads to look inside.

In the center of the main hall of the tea shop, there is an empty space, at the edge of the field, a little old man in his fifties looks at the gong, and there is a boxy table in the middle, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl is in an unbelievable posture, two slender jade feet stand on the table, but the whole body is bent back, the soft body is almost rotated to one hundred and eighty degrees, and the head of the mantis is stretched out from between the legs.

Many people know that this is Jiu-Jitsu, which is easy to say, but it is extremely difficult to do.

The girl is not very beautiful, but she has a bit of a posture, and the delicate body that is extremely soft is even more coveted, and suddenly I saw the girl with her palms propped on the table, and her legs suddenly turned back, and there was an exclamation all around, and then I saw that the girl was like a wheel, and she flipped over more than ten times on the table.

This is no ordinary somersault, but a full display of the softness and toughness of its body, and there is a cheer all around, and many people whistle at the girl.

There are many artists in the rivers and lakes who sell their arts everywhere, and they do not stay in one place, but wander in all directions to make a living, and now Xiangyang is a mixed place, and some artists in the rivers and lakes have also come here to sell some crafts to earn some money.

In the applause, the girl turned over, jumped off the table, and arched her hand around, her voice was very hearty: "Uncles and brothers are smiling, the little woman sells art for a living, and I also invite all the uncles and brothers to cheer more and enjoy the little girl's food." Then the little old man took a tray and handed it over, and the girl took the tray and smiled sweetly and walked to the side.

Look at the art and reward money, this is the rule of the rivers and lakes, there is no silver to hold a personal field, a little more generous, seeing the girl smiled sweetly, but also threw a few copper coins into the tray.

No matter how much the guest appreciates the silver, the girl is thankful with a smile, after half a circle, suddenly reached over with a hand, put a silver ingot on the tray, not to mention ten taels, many people are a little surprised, although ten taels of silver is not too much, but when the artists of the rivers and lakes are performing, they get ten taels of silver at a time, that is not common, the girl immediately said: "Thank you big brother!" ”

Everyone saw that the person who rewarded the silver looked to be in his early thirties, and he was very particular about his dress, with a cyan robe and a black belt, and the material of the shirt looked like a first-class product.

"No thanks, no thanks." The man smiled and said: "The girl lives in the rivers and lakes and makes a living by performing arts, she really needs to be pitied, look at this .......!" Reaching out to touch the girl's little hand, the girl hurriedly took a step back and said with a reluctant smile: "Walking the rivers and lakes to perform arts, I don't feel hard." He was about to walk up to the next person, but the man stopped and said, "I haven't finished speaking, what are you doing in a hurry?" Girl, my shot is ten taels of silver, and you treat me like this? ”

The little old man has been walking in the rivers and lakes for many years, so he naturally saw the fame, and came forward with a smile and said: "Thank you for this friend's appreciation, the little apprentice is not sensible, and the little old man has thanked him here." ”

"Is this your apprentice?" The man's eyes swirled around the little girl's soft body, and he said with a smile: "Your apprentice is not bad, I appreciate it very much, it's already dusk, it's going to be dark, you have closed the field now, I invite you to the restaurant for a meal." ”

The little old man smiled: "Thank you, but my friend has already given a reward, which is enough for our master and apprentice to eat for a while, so we don't dare to bother anymore." ”

"Old fellow, do you toast and don't eat and drink?" The man was followed by two or three people, one of whom glared at the little old man and said, "Do you know who this is?" Inviting you to dinner is to give you face, and you are shameless to give back. ”

The little old man hurriedly said: "This friend misunderstood, give the little old face, how dare the little face be shameless, but let's go to the rivers and lakes, sell art and eat, and don't eat white rice." ”

"Is it because you don't have enough money?" The man in the green shirt took another ingot of silver, threw it on the girl's tray, and said with a smile: "This is enough for you to have a meal with me?" ”

The girl frowned, shook her head, and said, "Big brother has already rewarded it." He actually picked up the ingot of silver and threw it back, and the man reached out and took it, laughing instead of being angry, and said, "Interesting, little old man, your apprentice really has a temper, I like it." Does she have a good match? You can ask me to help introduce you. ”

Before the little old man could speak, the girl was already annoyed: "You speak politely." "There was no smile on his face anymore.

The people around the audience talked a lot, and naturally they all saw that this man was not at ease as soon as he gave out ten taels of silver, and he actually teased your girl in public.

The man in the green shirt smiled with a smile: "What does the girl want me to say to be polite?" Why don't you find a place where I can say kind words to you? ”

Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice say coldly: "In broad daylight, I dare to tease other girls without shame, is there any royal law?" ”

Everyone followed the sound, only to see the inside of the tea shop, a young man in a gray cloth shirt was staring coldly at the man in the green shirt, the young man was quite handsome, behind him, stood a very tall man, beard, cloth towel on his head, also a very ordinary clothes.

In Xiangyang City, the clouds and dragons are mixed, rich and poor, but at the moment when the Aoki Conference is about to be held, no one dares to underestimate anyone through their clothes, and no one knows what kind of backers they have behind the seemingly ordinary people.

The man in the green shirt was obviously a little surprised, glanced at the young man, looked at it, and then smiled: "Where is Your Excellency sacred?" Do you mean me? ”

"Is there a second person here besides you who don't know your integrity?" The young man snorted coldly, and didn't seem to put the man in the green shirt in his eyes, so he walked over and said to the girl: "Girl, you don't have to pay attention to such a person, the sky is blue and the sun is bright, and I want to see who dares to be lawless." ”

This person was only mixed in the crowd before, and was not noticeable, but suddenly came out, and many people's eyes fell on him, and there were several beggars in ragged clothes standing near the gate, and at first glance they were beggars disciples, and the first one in front looked about thirty years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and unkempt hair, but a pair of eyes were quite bright, staring at the young man who suddenly came out to fight.

This middle-aged beggar was none other than Qi Ning.

With the help of Zhong Li, Qi Ning changed his appearance and pretended to be a middle-aged beggar in his thirties, after all, he appeared as the owner of the Kangjin Dragon Helm, if he was too young, it would be difficult to believe.

After meeting with Mao Huer and others, the group rushed to Xiangyang day and night, in order not to delay, everyone almost did not rest along the way, that is, to eat and drink, but also on horseback to complete, fortunately arrived in Xiangyang today, there is still a period of time before tomorrow noon in the Aoki Conference in Gurung.

Qi Ning knew that this Aoki Conference was also a big event on the rivers and lakes, and when he arrived in Xiangyang, he was not in a hurry to go directly to Gurungzhong, but to take a walk around Xiangyang City.

Mao Hu'er and his group of four followed, Qi Ning was naturally obedient, when he arrived in front of the door of this tea shop, he saw that there was a crowd of people, Qi Ning wanted to see what was going on, and squeezed to the door, he saw the previous scene clearly, and when he saw the man in green shirt pranayama girl, he sneered in his heart, but suddenly someone stood up.

Qi Ning thought that someone was not used to seeing the sincere grievances, but seeing the young man who came forward, Qi Ning was taken aback, he never expected to meet this person here, he only felt a little unbelievable.
