"What about Uchichi?"

Li Yi asked quietly.

"Inner City?" The boy suddenly put away his smile, revealing a hint of melancholy and irritation. "Compared with the outer market, the inner city is the real rivers and lakes, where the various sects and gangs of the rivers and lakes gather. It is also a place where filth and dirt are hidden, where the scum on the rivers and lakes, traitors of various sects and even the criminals of the imperial court are gathered! ”

"Are there all the criminals in the imperial court? The court doesn't care? ”

Li Yi asked in surprise.

"Tube?" The boy looked disdainful. "Then you have to manage it, brother, this world is not as simple as you think, on the bright side, it is the largest in the court, the whole world, and the supreme emperor. But in the rivers and lakes, the court only has some right to speak, but the real master is the family, the family, is the supreme of the rivers and lakes! ”

"The family!" Li Yi muttered, the waves in his heart were rolling, the young man's words made his heart a little messy, he originally thought that this so-called rivers and lakes were like the various sects in the TV series or like the underground forces of the Heaven and Earth Society in the Qing Dynasty, but now it seems that things are not as simple as he thought, this river and lake is actually in the hands of the family, so what is the essence of this river and lake? Now Li Yi's heart is full of doubts.

Drinking the wine in his hand, a spicy stimulation rushed straight to the brain, making the brain clear suddenly, and immediately, he seemed to be a little dizzy, and the stimulation of alcohol made Li Yi more free and easy.

Li Yi hugged the young man and said with a smile: "Haha, brother, I had a great time chatting with you, my name is Li Yi, the word Wenyong, I was born in Runzhou, and now I live in Chang'an, what about you?" ”

The young man also had a very good impression of Li Yi, so he seemed very happy.

"Hahaha, well, you kid is also very angry with me, my name is Shangguan Yunzhen, you can call me Shangguan!"

"Okay, Shangguan, I can't hide it, I want to go to the inner market to see the world, I wonder if you can lead the way?"

"To the inner city?" Shangguan Yunzhen was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Leading the way is a trivial matter, but now is not a good time to go to the inner market, and it is not too late to go tomorrow morning!" ”

"Huh? Morning? Isn't the ghost market only open at night? ”

"Haha, Brother Wenyong, that's just for the outer market, the reason why the ghost market is called the ghost market is to help some people in the rivers and lakes deal with some secret things, so the market is open at night, and the inner market and the outer market are completely two places, and the inner market does the same thing as the outside, but there is no night ban in the inner market."

Li Yi was stunned, and then suddenly said: "You said that what the inner market is doing is all above board? ”

Shangguan Yunzhen was stunned for a moment, and then smiled. "Haha, I didn't expect Brother Wen Yong to be a wonderful person, it's good that you know these things yourself, there's no need to say it."

"Hehe, my brothers all call me Brother Yi'er!"

"Brother Yi? Kindness! It's more agreeable than Brother Wenyong, but your title is a bit advantageous, I'm eighteen this year, I don't know how much brother it is? ”

"Eighteen? So small? If you call me brother, you really don't suffer! ”

Shangguan Yunzhen looked Li Yi up and down, and actually nodded seriously. "Really, you look older than me, so I'll call you Brother Yi!"

"Poof!"

Lu Ming and the four of them followed behind, and when they heard Shangguan Yunzhen's words, they couldn't help laughing, and they were suffocated by Li Yi's eyes.

The corners of Li Yi's mouth twitched, his temperament is indeed very confusing, he doesn't look like a teenager at all, and now he says that he is thirty, it is estimated that Shangguan Yunzhen will be fine.

"Shangguan, do you know the Huangquan Tavern?"

"Yellow Springs Tavern?" Shangguan Yunzhen's eyes flashed with a different color, and he was a little surprised: "You want to go to the Huangquan Tavern?" ”

"Well, I made an appointment with someone else to meet there, what's the matter, there's a problem?"

Li Yi was puzzled, the Huangquan Tavern was Bai Qing's suggestion to him, Bai Qing had heard of this name last time he came, but he didn't know much, and Li Yi didn't think much about it, so he put the street location there.

"Tut-tut!" Shangguan Yunzhen smacked his tongue, looked at Li Yi with a strange expression, and said, "I can't see it, you are still a rich man!" ”

Shangguan sighed, and then began to explain.

"Speaking of which, the inner city and the outer city are in Xiuzhenfang, and there is no clear boundary in between, if you have to say the boundary, it is the Huangquan Tavern.

This Huangquan Tavern is said to be a tavern, in fact, it is a large restaurant, that is, inns, restaurants, bars, casinos, etc., it is the most luxurious place in the entire ghost market, speaking of which, the former Huangquan Tavern is actually a tavern, in addition to the long history, there is really nothing special, but about a year ago, it was taken down by the Shandong government, and it took a lot of money to change it to the current Huangquan Wine City, however, many people are used to calling him the Huangquan Tavern.

Speaking of which, the establishment of this Huangquan Tavern is still a copy of the Pearl Square of Shandong Mansion, and it is said that Shandong Mansion has made a lot of money in the entire Tang Dynasty by relying on the Huangquan Tavern in the ghost market. ”

Li Yi was stunned again, and his head flickered. "Wait, you mean, Datang won't be a ghost market?"

"Of course." Shangguan explained: "The ghost market is a gathering place for people in the rivers and lakes, how can a ghost market be enough? The ghost markets of the entire Tang Dynasty are all over the place, but the ghost markets in Chang'an are the most famous and luxurious. ”

Li Yi swallowed and foamed. "Then what do you mean by Shandong Mansion?"

"Brother Yi'er, are you really from the rivers and lakes?" Shangguan glanced at Li Yi meaningfully.

Li Yi smiled awkwardly, but did not reply.

Shangguan looked at Li Yi, and no longer delved into it, and continued: "There are many large and small sects in the rivers and lakes, and there are dozens of them that can be named, not to mention those whose reputations are not obvious, but among these sects, there are four mansions, three factions, two gangs, and one pavilion are the strongest, and these ten organizations can be divided into three categories, the first category is the four mansions, that is, Shandong Mansion, Guanlong Mansion, Guannei Mansion, Jiangnan Mansion, you can hear the name, the forces behind these organizations are the four major family factions, that is, the Shandong family, the Guanlong family, The Kannai family and the Jiangnan Chinese family. The three factions and two gangs, namely the Tiandao faction, the Shaolin faction, the Tianji faction, the Four Seas Gang, and the Qinglong Gang, are all folk gangs, but the Qinglong Gang was disbanded two years ago and replaced by the Wuhu Gang; The last Taishang Pavilion is the organization of the imperial court, and it is also the most special existence. ”

Li Yi was speechless for a long time, he really didn't expect that this so-called rivers and lakes would be so complicated.

Li Yi thought for a long time, until Shangguan's eyes became more and more weird, he came to his senses, took a deep breath, Li Yi smiled and said, "Shangguan, have you ever been to the Huangquan Tavern?" ”

When Shangguan heard this, he scratched his head with a smile. "I'm not as good as you, I come from a small sect in the rivers and lakes, and I belong to the poor and white."

Li Yi smiled: "In that case, if you don't organize Brother Shangguan, can you give my brother a face, and let me invite you to the Huangquan Tavern to play a trick?" You know, I don't know anything, and I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it by myself. ”
