Chapter 257 Extortion
After Yun Yazi's wife, Qingxu Sanren, left Sanqingguan, she also lived elsewhere and did not open a sect. He once asked Huo Huazi if he had any other uncles, but he kept silent.
Today, I saw that Lan Daoxing would not only make Huangshan fold his hands, but also proficient in the so-called Yellow Emperor's imperial arts, and seemed to be inextricably linked with the Sanqingguan, although this person was vicious and vicious, and had the style of a gentleman, but he didn't seem to have any malice towards himself, and he didn't know whether he was lucky or murderous after being caught by Tan Lun.
Li Cangxing turned over, but his thoughts flew to Dongting Lake again, and when he listened to the bragging of those people in the Changfeng Dart Bureau in the teahouse today, he had a deep respect for the Xie family's father and daughter, and he wished to fly to the shore of Dongting Lake to help them at that time, but he didn't expect to escape this catastrophe.
The daughter of the Xie family doesn't know if she can save her life in this battle, if she can escape back to the Kunlun faction, she can move the senior masters to seek justice for herself, or it can increase the possibility of successful revenge, but in this war between good and evil that has lasted for several years, the Kunlun faction has always maintained neutrality.
This time, if he can use Xie Wanjun's matter to let Kunlun join the side of the Demon Alliance, then the chances of winning the decent will also increase a lot.
Miss Xie will also pinch her fingers to calculate the opponent's position when she makes Ruyi Zhu, this secret weapon technique Li Cangxing has never heard of, and he suddenly has the idea of having a chance to meet and hope to learn from Xie Wanjun.
Li Cangxing thought of Yan Song again, although he had often heard that this person was greedy and formed a gang in the court, but he did not expect that he would be so bad.
Dajiang will be destroyed, there are at least hundreds of dead, most of them are ordinary people who don't know martial arts, such a bloody case Yan Song can cover the sky with one hand, and listening to Qian Guanglai's words, he often does this kind of thing, Li Cangxing is even more angry when he thinks of this, and he can't sleep. simply got up in his clothes, went to the yard and punched all the way, and only went back to the room to fall asleep after feeling a little tired, and when he went to meet Mu Lanxiang in his dream again, the third watch had passed.
Early the next morning, Li Cangxing turned over and got up, and practiced the Ziqing swordsmanship in the practice room early. I haven't been freed from yesterday's love, and my wrist always trembles slightly when I shoot, and I have tried many times, but I can only stab five or six times with one sword.
Li Cangxing sighed and put his sword back into its sheath. Sit down and carry the Ice Heart Technique, and sure enough, it worked. A week after the work. Suddenly, the spirit platform was clear, and the irritability was much better all of a sudden.
Li Cangxing opened his eyes, stood up, held his breath and concentrated, imagining that the humanoid target opposite was Yan Song, and shouted. The sword was unsheathed, the purple qi soared, and the eight acupoints of the wooden people, such as the divine court, the human center, the heavenly outburst, the middle house, the purple palace, the middle body, the dove tail, and the middle belly, were all stabbed from the head to the abdomen. Each acupuncture point is three points into the wood, and the score is exactly the same!
Putting the sword back into its sheath, Li Cangxing let out a sigh of relief, and suddenly heard someone clapping behind him: "What a fast sword." ”
As soon as Li Cangxing turned around, it was Gongsun Hao, and Qian Guanglai was by his side.
Li Cangxing was surprised and delighted: "Helper! How did you get here? Didn't you just get a message from the flying pigeon yesterday that it would be a while before it came? ”
"That's because Guanglai went to other places to do business, and I only received the letter half a month later, and I just arrived here after dealing with the affairs in Dongting." Gongsun Hao said with a smile.
Li Cangxing saluted Gongsun Hao and asked, "I see, by the way, didn't you come to Brother Qian's house secretly, will you be seen by people if you are here openly early in the morning?" ”
Gongsun Hao smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry, I found Guanglai at night, and I have already asked him to send his family and servants to the front yard early in the morning, the door of this practice courtyard has been closed, and no one else can enter, even if there are uninvited guests visiting, they can't escape my ears and eyes, you can rest assured." ”
"I have taught him martial arts since Guanglai was a child, and I have been in contact with him for more than ten years, and nothing has gone wrong, no one in the capital knows that he knows martial arts, and no one monitors his family as a Jianghu sect"
Li Cangxing nodded: "Yes, helper." By the way, don't Jinyiwei and Dongchang want to monitor the courtiers and sects, like Brother Qian, who has a lot of money and is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, they don't care? ”
Qian Guanglai sighed and said, "I have to spend a lot of money every year to feed these vampires. Of course, they should have secretly checked me, and they were sure that I only did business, did not know martial arts, and did not get involved in the rights and wrongs of the rivers and lakes, so they would be at ease with me. ”
Li Cangxing suddenly felt that the fat man in front of him was very pitiful: "I see, Brother Qian, it's really not easy for you, you have to raise money for the gang and feed these guys." ”
When Qian Guang said this, he was angry: "Well, Shuntianfu, Jinyiwei, Dongchang, and Hubu all want to make money, and the most greedy is Dongchang, and a group of eunuchs have nothing to do with our eight poles, but they want the most every year." ”
Li Cangxing was slightly stunned: "The eunuch also wants to ask you for money?" Why? ”
Qian Guanglai said hatefully: "Maybe what I said just now is a little inaccurate, only the few people in charge of the East Factory are eunuchs, and most of the eagle dogs below are Jinyi guards. If you don't give money, they will set you on a fire at night, or plant a stolen object for you. ”
"When I took over the family business, I was angry at first, but then two shops were burned, and three branches were released with stolen silver, and I had to spend several times the amount of silver to get some money."
"Later, I learned to be obedient, and I gave money every year, 30,000 taels a year for Jinyiwei, 30,000 taels for Dongchang, 10,000 taels for Shuntianfu, and 5,000 taels for the official mansion where the local branches are located, so that the business has been safe and sound for so many years. As for the usual transportation, it has always been handed over to the dart board, and sometimes important goods need to be personally escorted by someone who is able to be sent by the master. ”
Li Cangxing thought for a moment and said, "Then the Wushan faction is the leader of the green forest of the entire seven provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, if Brother Qian's caravan goes through the seven southern provinces, do you want to pay money to them?" ”
Qian Guanglai waved his hand: "Our business is mainly in the north, and we rarely go to Jiangnan. However, just in case, in the past, our Chamber of Commerce also had to pay 3,000 taels of silver to Wushan every year, which could be regarded as maintaining a harmonious atmosphere on the face. On the green forest road north of the Yangtze River, there is no unified alliance leader like the Wushan faction, and the usual business is also handed over to various dart bureaus, and they take care of the relationship with various cottages. ”
Li Cangxing thought of the words of the dart masters of the Changfeng Dart Bureau that day, and couldn't help but move in his heart: "Just like the Changfeng Dart Bureau?" They seem to be paying for the bandits to buy peace. ”
Qian Guanglai sighed, and his tone was full of loneliness: "This is basically an unwritten agreement in the industry, today, every family is clean, and many people go up the mountain and fall into the grass because of the situation. ”
"For example, in the past, the exhibition hegemony of the Fuyuan Dart Bureau fought all over the underworld invincible opponents and became famous during his lifetime, but in the end, it still caused disaster to his children and grandchildren. No one can be strong forever, and it is impossible for a dart game to pass on the head to excellent outsiders like the martial arts sect, but hatred is accumulated from generation to generation. So it's like this in this industry, it's been like this for thousands of years, it's normal. ”
Li Cangxing asked: "Then if you encounter thieves who really occupy the mountain as the king, kill people and set fires, and do all kinds of evil, will no one be able to control them?" ”
"Absolutely." Gongsun Hao's angry voice sounded like a bell: "If it is really a great traitor, even if I flee to the ends of the earth, I will ask for his order." My Gongsun Hao has killed 417 people with names and surnames in his life, and there is not a single person who should not be killed. In the battle between good and evil in the first battle of the Falling Moon Gorge, there were countless nameless enemies of the Demon Sect killed in the melee, and not all of them deserved to die, but I still have no regrets. ”
Qian Guanglai said to Li Cangxing: "Brother, you should have heard of Master's chivalrous name in the rivers and lakes, that is really a wicked person who is jealous and hateful, a wicked person who does evil, a dog official who is a fish and a common people, and a prostitute thief who destroys flowers with hot hands, as long as he encounters the old man, even if he is far away from the world, Master will take his head." ”
Li Cangxing had heard of these for a long time, and praised at the moment: "The helper is really a hero." (To be continued......)
