Chapter 409: The Southern Beggars Gang Conflict
The battle in Suzhou lasted all night, but at the end of the year, it continued due to the sudden defection of the Egret Academy.
The people could not have a good year, and the other forces in the major cities were also full of complaints. There are those bold merchants, opened on the first day of the Lunar New Year, especially the small merchants and vendors who sell breakfast and special products, and they have earned enough money for a few days early in the morning.
This leads to a very strange phenomenon. On the periphery of the war zone, the Praetorian Guards and the City Guards cleaned up the corpses and blood stains as if nothing had happened, and the reserve fighters were bored chatting and farting, eating breakfast and shopping, but inside the battlefield were swords and swords, and the sound of killing was earth-shattering. The scene is bizarre and bizarre, and the most prominent of them is the Southern Beggars Gang.
The arrival of this large group of beggars almost emptied the restaurants that had opened, and although the merchants made a lot of money, they also gave away a lot. For the first time in history, the Southern Beggars Gang has caused dissatisfaction among many people, and the people will not talk about it, and other forces will also be disgusted, why do we have to spend money, and you can eat and drink for nothing? What is this not a moth?
Within the Southern Beggars Gang, they almost quarreled because of this issue, and they generally begged, but they ate and drank exactly the same as everyone else, without a little consciousness of being a beggar, what is the significance of the existence of the Southern Beggars Gang?
Of course, just the issue of eating and drinking will not make the internal fight happen, and the most important thing is that some beggar disciples took advantage of the chaos in Suzhou to commit a very serious crime! This person is the newly promoted Dharma Protector Elder, Li Wu.
……
The main road in the middle of the street in Zhongcheng District is crowded with people, rubbing shoulders, and at the door of a rather luxurious gambling house, the ragged people on both sides are distinct, and the old man in Chinese clothes frowning tightly in the center is the leader of the Southern Beggars Gang - Xie Qixian.
Obviously, the contradiction between the rent-collectors and the farming faction has once again intensified.
The reason for the incident was very simple, the Dharma Protector Elder Li Wu, at the instigation of his apprentice Ge Xiaolou, went to the gambling house to play two tricks. If it was normal gambling, the farming faction would not bother to take care of it, but Li Wu was different from ordinary gamblers, when he was a disciple of Liubao, he was nicknamed "Three Bad Flowers".
Which three products?
It is for wine, gambling and character. All three are rotten.
But he was very bored this morning, went to the tavern and the apprentice was drunk, and the shopkeeper didn't ask him to settle the bill, he took out a silver coin in a daze, and gave it to the wine Xiaoer, Xiao Er's heart was overjoyed, and he finally saw the money back from the hands of this group of stinky flowers, but is it really that simple?
Li Wu gave the silver coin, played drunk on the spot, and shouted loudly: "You conscienceless little er, you even earn beggar's money, are you crazy about money?" ”
Li Wu's voice attracted countless onlookers, Xiao Er was stunned on the spot, and whispered: "Didn't you give it to me yourself, guest officer?" ”
"I gave it to you?" Li Wu played a scoundrel, "Ask the people present, which hand did I give you?" ”
"It's clear that he took advantage of Master's drunkenness to rob it! This little two actually framed us! ”
The "testimony" for Li Wu was naturally his apprentice Ge Xiaolou. I have to say that it is really important to worship a good master, the one who is close to ink is black, although Ge Xiaolou was cunning in the past, he was by no means a scoundrel, but it was a pity that he followed Li Wu, and he didn't learn much about internal skills, but he was also trained to be a splash.
Among the onlookers, most of them were from Yangzhou, and naturally recognized Li Wu and the others. They didn't dare to stand up for justice, or even simply make accusations, they just shook their heads and sighed, and said in their hearts: This scoundrel master and apprentice is going to be drunk and crazy again, and Xiao Er is afraid that he will be unlucky.
In fact, no one dares to accuse Li Wu and the others, because although Li Wu is bad at all three grades, his martial arts are very superb, and he has been promoted from a six-bag disciple to an elder in just a few years, which shows that his talent for martial arts training is far beyond ordinary people; Moreover, Li Wu didn't play drunk once or twice, and they were already surprised.
As people thought, Li Wu's master and apprentice beat Xiao Eryi violently, and robbed a gold coin when he was about to go, insisting that it was a mental loss fee. And the shopkeeper is just an ordinary merchant who does a small business, and since Taihu Academy in Zhongcheng District, there has been no land snake, and they have no one to cover, so they can only swallow their anger.
Li Wusanpin had already lost two products, but he was not satisfied, and staggered to the gambling house under Ge Xiaolou's prodding. In today's situation, the gambling building was not intended to open, but later several major forces in Yangzhou settled in, and the owner of the gambling house also wanted to try the feeling of making money in the ghost gate, so he beckoned the guy to open it.
This boss is really unlucky, and among the first guests ushered in, there was the drunken Li Wu master and apprentice. Li Wu's gambling is notoriously bad in Yangzhou, whenever he goes to the casino, unless there is a tough backstage, the owners of ordinary casinos will always close the casino under various excuses, but the boss in Suzhou does not know him, in line with the principle that the visitor is a guest, the guys also put Li Wu and the two in.
This one is a mess.
It would be a disaster to let this "three-product rotten flower" go to the casino drunk. Li Wu soon came on the court, not to mention the winning games, and whenever he lost the games, he forcibly played Laipi. Bet on the big loss, not to say that it is a small bet, play dominoes and report the number indiscriminately, bet on horse chess, he will play chess how he wants, once someone accuses and abuses, it is a set of eighteen palms of the dragon, how can ordinary people stand this, some died tragically on the spot on the table, some picked up a life and continued to lie on the ground and pretend to be dead, once he found that someone escaped, it was another set of eighteen palms of the dragon, it was really bitter for this group of poor gamblers.
Fortunately, this gambling building is on the main road of Center Street, and the news of Li Wu's big trouble in the casino soon reached Xiao Wu's ears, when she was buying candy people with Feng Qiqi to eat, when she heard the news, the sugar people didn't care about eating, and quickly ran to the gambling building, and they went in to take a look, and they were all dumbfounded. Li Wu almost turned the gambling building upside down, his neck was full of gold, silver and jewelry, lying on the gambling table and falling asleep, the ground was in a mess, and there were dozens of corpses lying there, the boss had a blue nose and swollen face and hid under the table shivering, the whole gambling building was wailing, Ge Xiaolou saw that the matter was too big, and he didn't know where to flee for a long time.
Xiao Wu's heart is on fire, he has never caused so many lives in Yangzhou, but he has caused so many evils in Suzhou, the government doesn't care about it, he made a lot of trouble, but he made the Southern Beggars Gang completely lose face!
Suzhou today, but almost the entire Jiangnan has gathered big forces, in front of so many colleagues in the rivers and lakes, whatever you say, you have to give an explanation to the suffering people, otherwise the southern beggars gang will really not be able to get along!
He's disregarding human life!
Xiao Wu immediately ordered Feng Seventeen to tie up Li Wu, drag him to the street, pour a basin of cold water on it, and splash a soup chicken.
Xiao Wu saw that he was a little sober, so he asked Feng Seventeen to invite the law enforcement elder Wang Luo, and soon Wang Luo, Wang Meng, Lou Peng, and Nangong Jin, who was depressed because of his concern for the demon legion, arrived one after another, Xiao Wu was just about to accuse Wang Luo of the crime committed by Li Wu, and the three of the ten elders, Ximen Fei, and You Zi'an also came to a few people surrounded by beggars.
Li Wu, in essence, is a rent-collecting faction, and the ten elders are in person, in front of many heroes in the rivers and lakes, Xiao Wu also has to take care of his face, at least to make outsiders look peaceful.
She complained to both parties about Li Wu's crimes at the same time, and after listening to it, Wang Luo only thought for a moment before making a ruling: kick Li Wu out of the beggar gang and put him on the blacklist of the beggar gang.
The Ten Elders naturally disagreed, but the twenty-two corpses in the gambling building made Wang Luo decide not to compromise anymore, and the usual problems of eating and drinking were forgotten, this time it was a matter of human life! This is different from the Jueyuan Huangshang Battle that affected the people, it was a mistake caused by the excessive power of the two people's battle, and it was not intentional. And whether Li Wu deliberately killed people, who died ordinary people, or in broad daylight, if he did not perform the duties of a law enforcement elder, how could he hold his head up in the rivers and lakes in the future?
The two sides quarreled several times, which made the tenth elder very annoyed, and he directly snatched Li Wu, and he was sure to protect him.
There is no one in the eyes of the ten elders, because he has become more and more favored by Xie Qixian over the years, and his actual power has become greater and greater, he has transgressed his authority several times, implemented the gang rules and family law against the disciples of the farming faction, and suppressed the farming faction everywhere, Wang Luo is not as confident as when he robbed people, because since Xie Qixian became the superintendent of the association, he has completely abandoned the farming faction, and the reason why he has not completely broken up is just because there is still the last love between each other, and they once went south together to create the brotherhood of the Southern Beggars Gang.
The two sides are competing with each other, and there is no way out. The farming faction said that Li Wu's crime was extremely heinous, and he must give an explanation to the people of Suzhou; The rent-collecting faction shifted the focus, saying that it is none of your business, don't worry about it, don't farm at home, didn't you come with your face last night?
Quarreling and arguing about the two sides to start, at this time Xie Qixian arrived, Wang Luo was not afraid at all, and argued with reason, which made Xie Qixian very difficult to do, after some thought, appeased Wang Luo: Wait for this matter, go back to Raven Fang and then try Li Wu.
Who knew that Wang Luo was iron-hearted, and he must make a ruling on the spot by Xie Qixian, which made Xie Qixian feel very faceless, so many outsiders are here, are you really on the bar?
Neither side will budge, the situation has become extremely tense, and the next moment it may be completely torn apart.
At this time, the good old man Zhang Zifu appeared, and after some mud, he finally persuaded Wang Luo. Wang Luo felt extremely sad in his heart, the Southern Beggars Gang was no longer the refuge of the poor people before, and it was no longer a gang full of justice, maybe it would be more appropriate to call it the Moth Gang and the Termite Gang.
Obviously, Wang Luo doesn't want to be called a "moth" by others. At the moment when he saw Xie Qixian showing disgust to him, he made up his mind in his heart, this is the case, go back to Luoyafang to worship the ancestor, and he must lead the crowd to break away from the Southern Beggars Gang and completely draw a line with Xie Qixian!
……
The rent-collecting faction and the farming faction are on the same page, and once again the saber rattling, if it weren't for Zhang Zifu and the mud, I'm afraid that the Southern Beggars Gang would have broken up on the spot.
Outside the battlefield, the surface is calm, but in fact, the undercurrent is surging, but inside the battlefield is turbulent, the battle is extremely fierce, the Egret Academy has completely replaced the demon legion and has become the main enemy of the coalition army, the leader of the coalition army really doesn't understand what the demon legion is worthy of Bi Sheng's best efforts, but there is no turning back from the bow, and the coalition army can only fight hard.
