Chapter 189 Strict

On the streets of Lingzhou City, looking at the bustling flow of people and vehicles, Gu Qi was a little at a loss, this was the third day he came to Lingzhou City, one of the purposes of Gu Qi's coming to Lingzhou was to take revenge, to find the Brotherhood for revenge!

Many years ago, one of Gu Qi's close relatives died at the hands of the Brotherhood, and he swore that he would not share the sky with the Brotherhood, and that one day he would pay for the Brotherhood's blood debts. It wasn't until Gu Qi's martial arts www.biquge.info he felt that he had the ability to take revenge that he suddenly realized that the Brotherhood was already a behemoth, the top force in the world! However, this did not hinder his determination to take revenge, Gu Qi decided to assassinate the leader of the Brotherhood, and the glorious deeds of those famous assassin predecessors inspired him, and every time he thought that he could successfully assassinate, he couldn't help but feel a little passionate and couldn't help himself.

So, Gu Qi resolutely entered the Star Sea Empire, but when he arrived at the territory of the Brotherhood, everything was very different from what he originally imagined.

Gu Qi didn't enter as an outcast, and there was no one to guide him, although when he entered, someone specially explained the rules that need to be followed under the rule of the Brotherhood, he was full of thoughts about how to take revenge, and he didn't listen carefully at all because of his hatred of the Brotherhood, and the people in the rivers and lakes need to abide by those rules? Whatever the Brotherhood doesn't allow, he just does!

Three days later, Gu Qi completely regretted it, just casually spit or folded a section of flowers and plants, or didn't line up, Gu Qi was fined or whipped one after another.

Gu Qi thought that he was fully capable of resisting or escaping, but in the face of the preaching of the person known as the chengguan, as well as the strange eyes of the surrounding crowd, Gu Qi had no choice but to admit punishment, he knew in his heart that as a successful assassin, he must know how to endure.

"Scribble, fine! If you don't have money, do you want to be a volunteer for the hour, or whip it? Hey, I know you kid, the one who spits, I said why do you keep teaching and don't understand the rules, don't you? Look at how human you look, all the bad things you have...... The fine is doubled! "A man in a red sleeve preached, like an aunt, and there was a group of people around.

Gu Qi's face was red at this time, his teeth were clenched, his fists were clenched, he just wanted to make a mark, he wanted to contact the people in Lingzhou City in the assassin organization he joined, so he drew a mark on the root of the wall at the entrance of a restaurant, and as a result, he had just carved two strokes and was arrested again.

Faced with this situation many times, Gu Qi almost reached the limit of patience, and almost couldn't help but want to draw his sword and kill the chengguan in front of him, but he was said to be a little unreasonable, and then looked at the people around him, as well as some patrolling soldiers on the street, he still had to pay the fine, and under the gaze of the chengguan, he reluctantly erased the code, only hoping that the organized people had seen it.

Gu Qi's expectations were disappointed, no one came to contact him, and he had to face a serious problem, he was fined many times, the consumption in Lingzhou City was high, and he didn't have much money left!

When he is out of the house, it can be said that it is difficult to move an inch without money, Gu Qi has to put aside the matter of revenge first, and get some money first, as for how to get money, all he can think of is the emergency relief in the rivers and lakes, hoping to find some friends in the rivers and lakes who are more generous and squander their money.

Under the rule of the Brotherhood, the martial arts style is extremely prosperous, and it can be seen from the many martial artists carrying weapons on the street that according to common sense, basically the martial artists are even if they are from the rivers and lakes, Gu Qi asked people about the more famous people in the rivers and lakes, and learned that some martial arts hall owners are more famous, and then came to visit.

Coming into contact with these warriors in Lingzhou City, Gu Qi quickly realized that something was wrong, Gu Qi was also a smart person, and talked quietly, he soon realized that these warriors under the rule of the Brotherhood were quite different from the people in the rivers and lakes of Middle-earth, without the arrogance of some people in the rivers and lakes of Middle-earth, and the shrewdness of a businessman, the most important point was that they all abided by some of the rules set by the Brotherhood, to Gu Qi's surprise, these warriors did not have a bad feeling towards the control of the Brotherhood, Instead, he was keen to do things for the Brotherhood, Gu Qi couldn't help but be glad that he was cautious enough, if he said that he wanted to assassinate the leader of the Brotherhood, he would probably be arrested immediately.

However, Gu Qi still found a way to make money, that is, to participate in the martial arts competition in Lingzhou City, that is, the martial arts competition.

To say martial arts, in addition to resolving some contradictions and disputes through martial arts, it naturally makes people think of martial arts, participating in martial arts is one of the important ways for martial artists to become famous. The martial arts competition in Lingzhou City or the Xinghai Empire is somewhat similar to the martial arts meeting, but there are many differences.

There are so many martial artists under the rule of the Brotherhood, there are inevitably some contradictions between each other, according to the previous rules of the rivers and lakes, the two do not like each other, they can fight anytime and anywhere, or make an appointment to fight to the death, but, under the rule of the Brotherhood, it is not possible, the Brotherhood does not prohibit private fighting, and anyone who needs to solve grievances can go to a special martial arts arena to solve it, but before fighting, you have to sign a document, whether it is a fight or a life-and-death fight, write it clearly in black and white.

Originally, the competition between martial artists was one of the lively things that people loved to watch, but the previous martial arts meetings often had various rules and restrictions, and ordinary people were not so easy to see, especially high-level fights.

After the establishment of the martial arts arena, people have a place to see the excitement, and some martial artists also continue to compete to become famous, and the surrounding martial arts arena is lively every day, driving the surrounding shops to flourish. Later, the leader of the brotherhood proposed a system, and at this point, the competition began to be commercialized, the event was also renamed the martial arts competition, after which, people entered the martial arts arena to watch the martial arts to buy tickets, but also to buy prize tickets, and the martial artists who participated in the competition, regardless of whether they won or lost, could earn an appearance fee.

Up to now, martial arts arenas have been built in various cities under the rule of the Brotherhood, and martial arts competitions have rarely been conducted for personal grievances, and are more commercial in nature and for fame and fortune. The martial arts arena is becoming more and more popular, martial arts martial artists are sought after by people, these martial arts appearance fees are surprisingly high, especially later, the Brotherhood has made a league, all the martial arts arenas under the rule of the Brotherhood, the martial artists have to fight one level at a time, until they enter the finals, the fame is naturally needless to say, and you can also get the huge bonuses provided by the Brotherhood, for ordinary people, it is definitely an astronomical amount.

Compared with the previous martial arts, in order to attract the appreciation of the powerful, the martial arts competition is much safer, and the effect can be described as immediate, there is a large amount of money to take after a fight, win a few more games, and it is enough for a lifetime.

Gu Qi participated in the martial arts competition, he practiced martial arts for many years, and finally had a more direct and rich return, after a few fights, not only gained some fame, but also earned a lot of money, Gu Qi felt that his martial arts had also improved.

However, Gu Qi did not forget to take revenge, but at this time, he realized that his previous thoughts were really naïve and naïve. In Lingzhou City, on the territory of the Brotherhood, he was alone, completely black-eyed, and he also figured out at this time that outsiders like him were restricted in the area of activity, and they could only stay in some big cities, let alone some confidential areas close to the Brotherhood. Even if it's close? The Brotherhood is known for its well-guarded masters, and I don't know how many masters are planted in their hands. The leader of the brotherhood, Gu Qi is even more of a stranger, he doesn't know who to find for revenge, it's difficult to find any one, the leader of the brotherhood has always been pompous, and it is difficult for outsiders to know their whereabouts, it is said that the weapons and armor of the leaders of the brotherhood are more special, but if you go to assassinate the leader of the brotherhood wearing armor, Gu Qi is not so stupid, if he doesn't wear it, even if he stands in front of him, he can't recognize it.

Moreover, the martial arts of the leaders of the brotherhood are even more extraordinarily high, all of them have unique skills, plus they are holding divine weapons and wearing treasure armor, Gu Qi used to be relatively confident in his martial arts, but since he participated in several martial arts competitions, he has a clearer understanding of his martial arts, compared to those real masters in the martial arts competitions, his martial arts can only be said to be passable.

What made Gu Qi even more puzzled was that the brotherhood he had always hated turned out to be quite popular, and if the people around him knew his plans, the consequences could be imagined.

Gu Qi racked his brains, but he came up with a clever plan, managed to infiltrate the brotherhood, endure the humiliation, and one day there will be revenge, and it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years! It's just, the fraternity is so easy to join?

Gu Qi inquired, and without a fellow villager acquaintance who knew the bottom of the story as a guarantor, it would be impossible for him to join the brotherhood, and it would be difficult for him to even be a peripheral organization. Joining the army is also a road, but I don't know how many people are looking at it, and it is not his turn to be an outsider. The only way to do that is about ...... If he can settle down here, marry a daughter-in-law, and have a baby, if the baby is motivated, maybe he can join the brotherhood, and then find an opportunity to take revenge. It's just that Gu Qi is not very sure that it is feasible, he heard some adults whose children are in school say that after the children enter the school, they have become much more savvy and understand more, that is, they listen to the words of the school teachers very much, and even more so to the brotherhood, and the words of the adults in the family are not so effective.

Even if it is feasible, it will take at least twenty years, Gu Qi is not sure that he can wait that long, and he doesn't want to wait that long, besides, let his descendants take revenge? Gu Qi felt that he still had to do this by himself, but he really couldn't think of a way.

After some twists and turns, Gu Qi finally found a member of the Assassin Order, only to learn that the members of the organization in Lingzhou City had already gone their separate ways, either incognito, getting married and having children, or going to business, and even going to Funan, Naga and other places.

To say that in troubled times, assassins are a relatively popular profession, and without some rules in peacetime, it is normal for various forces to send assassins to each other. People who are assassins come from different backgrounds, some like Gu Qi are for personal grievances, some are forced to do so, and some have been cultivated since childhood, except because of personal grievances, it is nothing more than to make a living, if there are other options, why take risks?

Under the rule of the Brotherhood, there are many options, anyway, under the constraints of the Brotherhood's various rules, assassination is rare, their organization has not received business for a long time, the Assassins also have to eat, legitimate business can live well, why do this kind of deadly business again?

The member learned of Gu Qi's plan and persuaded him to give up, originally, Gu Qi's closest relatives also went to intercept and kill the people of the Brotherhood, but they were killed. Don't recognize? Go for trouble with the Brotherhood and see what rank they are now? If you go, it's just a death.

Gu Qi originally wanted to get some help from the organization, but who knew that this was the case, which made him a little depressed for a few days. Even so, Gu Qi was still determined to take revenge, otherwise what was his hard practice of martial arts all these years? What are all these years of waiting? It's just that, no matter what he thinks, he can't find any chance, and revenge seems to be a distant thing.

What made Gu Qi even more annoyed was that after adapting to the life in Lingzhou City, what he saw and heard, he felt more and more that the Brotherhood was actually under good rule, and in many ways it was much better than in Middle-earth, and the idea of revenge began to waver.

There is more than one example like Gu Qi, they are hostile to the Brotherhood, even if these people manage to lurk, but under various rules and regulations, these people can't make any waves, and they are not affected by all aspects of the Brotherhood's rule.

Through its newspapers and periodicals, witch doctors, art troupes, schools, etc., the Brotherhood continues to influence the minds of the people under its rule, change their cognition and opinions, spread some ideas, and form more consistent values, so that the Star Sea Empire can be regarded as a real country, of course, this will be a long-term process.

Of course, not everyone eats this set, after all, everyone has different backgrounds and different ideas, in this regard, there is no need for the Brotherhood to spend time on education or anything, keeping it will only bring some trouble, simply remove these unstable factors and expel them, even if these people will be hostile to the Brotherhood from now on, but does the Brotherhood need to care about the thoughts of these people?

The war in Middle-earth has made Middle-earth more and more turbulent, but under the rule of the Brotherhood, it is stable and prosperous, and all kinds of people have entered the territory of the Star Sea Empire, not only some ordinary people, but even some big clans have also migrated to the Star Sea Empire.

First of all, there are some clans engaged in commerce, these families have less dependence on land and property, have some business dealings with the Brotherhood for a long time, and have a better understanding of some of the rules of the Brotherhood. Although there are many rules under the rule of the Brotherhood, if you understand the reasons why the Brotherhood made these rules, you will know that these rules are not excessive, just as the prohibition of spitting and defecation is for the sake of the cleanliness of the city and the prevention of the spread of disease.

As long as you don't break these rules of the Brotherhood, it's quite free, and following them doesn't bring trouble in many cases, and often makes many things easier and more convenient. What's more, the Brotherhood itself is also extremely well-behaved, and many of the time it is spread out and said, simple and straightforward, and the Brotherhood's reputation is excellent, and it has always been the same. In contrast, no matter how nice the words of those forces in Middle-earth are, they often do some unruly things, some families with little power often become the object of exploitation and oppression, and the struggle between various forces is also complicated. For these families, how to choose is not a difficult problem.

Then there are some families who have lost in the struggle, and entering the rule of the Brotherhood is considered to avoid disaster, even if they are reluctant to give up their original land rights, there is nothing they can do, it is better than the whole clan being slaughtered and cutting off their children and grandchildren. There are also some families who mix well in Middle-earth, and also send some clansmen's children into the Brotherhood's rule, for similar reasons, just in case, to preserve the bloodline, of course, if these children can mix a name for themselves under the Brotherhood's rule, and even become a member of the Brotherhood, it is best to know that eggs cannot be put in one basket, in case the Brotherhood wins the world one day, their family may be able to prosper again, but unfortunately, the Brotherhood's system is extremely strict, and many rules are different from Middle-earth, The chances of a child of a big clan wanting to join the Brotherhood are quite slim.

Not to mention that it is not so simple to join the Brotherhood and become an official resident under the rule of the Brotherhood, for example, those who are homeless have to work for the Brotherhood for at least two or three years, during which they are completely subject to the Brotherhood's arrangements, and it depends on their performance.

Under the rule of the Brotherhood, on the whole, there seems to be no distinction between people and people, and there are not so many honors and humilities, but there is still a clear hierarchy.

At the top is naturally the leaders of the brotherhood, followed by the official members of the brotherhood, witch doctors, army generals, etc., among which there are also some hierarchical divisions, such as the witch doctors and army soldiers are official, there are also members in the inspection period, and then down is the periphery of the brotherhood, the periphery includes some civil institutions, chambers of commerce, martial arts, etc., and then the ordinary people under the rule, and there are foreign refugees and other personnel below another level, and finally slave labor, etc., of which there are some divisions of each level.

However, these levels are not fixed, and if you can earn enough contribution points or make great achievements, you can be promoted to the next level.

The treatment of different levels is naturally different, especially the official members of the brotherhood, enjoy various benefits, can use some new gadgets made by the brotherhood, bereavement if they die in battle, family members are also guaranteed, divide the field and house, arrange marriages, go to the hospital of the witch temple when sick, get priority treatment, use some more expensive and scarce medicines, even if you are old, you can also receive money every month, etc.

For ordinary people under the rule of the Brotherhood, as long as they become a full member of the Brotherhood, it can be said that all the dreams of their lives have been realized, and naturally many people strive to become a member of the Brotherhood, but it is difficult for ordinary people to have the opportunity to earn contribution points, however, it is not without a chance, that is, through the army, schools, witch temples and other institutions of the Brotherhood, enter the Brotherhood system, even if they themselves have no hope, they hope that their descendants can do it.

This is also true for those in the Brotherhood, the Brotherhood does not exclude the children of the Brotherhood, however, most of them don't care about this, and go to work in some of the Brotherhood's workshops for the sake of being an official resident? What classes do I have to attend? Ridiculous!

Although they do not have official residency and are subject to some restrictions, as long as they have money, these people can still live quite comfortably under the rule of the Brotherhood, although most of them have no ability to make a living, so it can be said that they are sitting on empty seats, but the wealth accumulated by their families for generations is enough for them to squander. In fact, this kind of people are waste in the eyes of the brotherhood, even if they are official residents, they will not be given the qualifications, at most they will be treated as tourists for the sake of spending a lot of money, if these guys are not honest, they will end up with two, either they will be expelled, or the old rules, they will be arrested and let the family take money to ransom people, and if there is no money to ransom people, they can only be sent to mining.

However, these people are not stupid, they are basically honest, but they have some small actions, they just want to seek a higher position under the rule of the Brotherhood, but they are not willing to take it step by step, they always want to find opportunities to drill camps, and they want to use opportunistic methods, and these people are not the only people who have similar ideas.
