Five days ago, at noon on the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month.

Sun Lang took a car and rushed back to the Wolf Head Gang in Jiexian County. As soon as he entered the door, the disciple on duty who was guarding the door ran in, serving tea and pouring water, and greeted An: "Helper, you came back before the New Year, why didn't you see the third lady?"

Sun Lang's face sank: "Is this what you should ask?"

The disciple on duty wanted to please him, but he was not interested. After being reprimanded, he didn't dare to say much, and stood aside.

"Is there anything I need to tell you these days?" Sun Lang reined in his annoyance, and asked in the form of a gang leader.

"Everything has been normal in the past few days, all the halls have collected all the New Year's silver, and Deputy Su Gang Leader has ordered everyone to store in Zhaocai Qianzhuang. ”

"Well, okay. Sun Lang suddenly remembered something again, and ordered: "Ask Deputy Gang Master Su to come and see me." ”

Not long after, the deputy gang leader Su Jun arrived. Su Jun is Chinese New Year's Eve nine years old today, although he is a full round older than Sun Lang, it can be seen that the gang leader is still respectful.

"Su Jun, it's a little late today, early tomorrow morning, you take two or three brothers to Cangmeng Mountain, find a posterior boy who jumped off the cliff, and bring me back whether he is dead or alive. Ask the coachman Lao Liu for the specific location. Sun Lang didn't greet him, and gave the order straightforwardly.

"Yes. Su Jun turned around and left.

Sun Lang took a sip of the tea bowl in front of the hall, sat alone for a while, and ordered the disciple on duty to say, "Go to the back house and invite Old Man Liu to the lobby." ”

The disciple was about to leave, but Sun Langtu said again: "Wait, forget it, it's none of your business, why should you go." ”

After speaking, he got up and sat down and walked to the back house.

It's not easy to say this. He was not from Qingxian, but from Puxian, Jinju. Since childhood, his family was poor, his mother died early, and he and his father depended on each other. His father had no crafts, and the family did not have land, so he relied on working as a tenant for the local rich man's family, and his income was meager, and it was difficult to make ends meet, so Sun Lang went to the fields with his father to do farm work when he was just seven or eight years old.

My father was short-tempered and a good drinker, so he bought alcohol when he had a little spare money, and beat him to vent his anger when he was unhappy or when he drank too much. Sun Lang went to the field with his father to farm during the day, and when he returned home, he had to cook, and if he didn't get it, he would be beaten violently, and his life was very miserable.

When he was nine years old, the neighbor moved in with Mr. Zhang, who was teaching in a private school, who was literate and hyphenated, full of poetry and books, and had a belly full of stories, so going to his house every night to listen to stories became the happiest thing in Sun Lang's day. Although Mr. Zhang is middle-aged, he has not started a family, and he is known for his strictness in teaching at a private school, and he is not smiling at people. However, Sun Lang can speak well, and he also knows how to observe words and feelings, and he has repeatedly coaxed Mr. Zhang to laugh. Mr. Zhang also likes this kid in his heart, treats him as a son, always prepares some snacks at home, and waits for him to come to the house to listen to his stories about gods and ghosts, and never forget to teach him a few words after telling the story. This Sun Lang is also very smart, he knows how to draw inferences, come and go, and he also recognizes a lot of words.

When Sun Lang was ten years old, when Mr. Zhang was teaching in a private school, he punished a few stubborn gentlemen more severely, and several children gathered a group of thugs to beat Mr. Zhang and injured him. The child who took the lead was Wang Ran, the son of the rich man, and Mr. Zhang was angry and went to his house, hoping that the rich man could discipline the children more strictly. The Wang family not only did not punish Wang Ran, but blamed Mr. Zhang for trying to blackmail his family's money for having nothing to do, and was blown out.

Mr. Zhang was so angry that he couldn't afford to get sick after returning home, although he invited Lang Zhong and Sun Lang to take care of him every night, he still died in a few days. Sun Lang was already sensible at this time, and knew that it was those children who indirectly killed Mr. Zhang, so he went to Wang Ran to reason, but he didn't expect that before he could say anything, he was beaten by Wang Ran, and even his father was implicated and dismissed by Wang Ran's family.

The only way to survive was cut off, and his father beat Sun Lang up again by getting drunk. Sun Lang hated this rich and unkind family, so his brain was hot, and he took advantage of the night to climb over the wall to enter the Wang family, and burned the entire mansion to the ground. When I got home, I knew that something was wrong, and I didn't tell my father, so I ran away overnight.

All the way north, a ten-year-old child, who had no money or property, could only steal chickens and dogs and slip the door and pick the lock. If you are lucky, you can live a few days with a full stomach, and if you are unlucky, you will inevitably be beaten. In order to prevent being caught and beaten repeatedly, Sun Lang paid more attention to other people's fights and brawls, and over time he had a lot of experience in how to dodge, how to sneak attack, how to fall into the well, and how to escape, just like he later said in the gang "If you don't have a strong force, you have to rely on your brain to fight." In this way, two years later, he fled to Qing County.

Qingxian County is the transportation hub of Jinju, and the merchants come and go, which also drives the development of restaurants, inns, gambling houses, green buildings and even bathhouses in the entire county, which is relatively wealthy compared with the surrounding areas, and of course the underworld forces are more rampant.

After two years of tempering, Sun Lang was like a fish in water here, first in the small streets and alleys of Qing County, only attacking the lonely gangsters, and bringing out a group of younger brothers by coaxing and deception and military conquest. took his younger brothers to attack the small gangs on the big streets, and he still did the same, and he gathered a group of dead friends, so three years later, on his fifteenth birthday, he established the later famous Wolf Head Gang.

At this time, the power is much greater, so he goes to provoke the gangsters in restaurants and inns, and if he can't do it alone, he will fight in groups, and if he can't do it, he will secretly make stumbling blocks, or he will instigate the fight between the gangsters, and then eat them one by one when both are defeated. In less than ten years, Sun Lang has become a well-known figure in the underworld in Qing County, and the Wolf Head Gang has also become one of the few big forces in Qing County. When he was full-fledged, he built a house with a three-entry courtyard in a prosperous part of the city, which served as the headquarters of the Wolf's Head Gang. It was smooth sailing, and he was in high spirits, planning to unify the forces in Qingxian County.

The victory in the battle with the Easy Gang should be the pinnacle of the Wolf Head Gang or Sun Lang's gang life. The Xiaoyao Gang used to be the largest underworld gang in Qing County, and the gang leader Zhao Gang was a martial artist, relying on his fists to build a huge industry, and the gambling houses and Qinglou in Qing County had their influence in it, and the Dalian County Government also gave it three points. Seeing that the Wolf Head Gang was gradually gaining momentum and faintly had the momentum of being on an equal footing with him, Zhao Gang arranged for the gang to continue to attack. After all, the Xiaoyao Gang has been entrenched in Qing County for many years, and all kinds of relationships are intertwined, how can Sun Lang, a foreign boy, be able to defeat him? Seeing that the Wolf Head Gang is gradually declining, Sun Lang made an important decision, that is, to use the power of Bai Dao. In fact, as early as the beginning of the gang's establishment, Sun Lang realized that if he did not get the support of the county government, no matter how big the territory was, it would be just a passing cloud.

Silver is the best stepping stone, Sun Lang was introduced to the cell head of Qing County, and the cell head introduced him to the county magistrate. Unlike the strong and arrogant Zhao Gang, Sun Lang still knows how to really control Bai Dao, not to suppress, but to welcome. Zhixian likes antiques, Sun Lang went around touching celebrity calligraphy and paintings, antique jade and other offerings; Zhixian wife celebrated her birthday, Sun Lang used a generous salute to celebrate her birthday; Zhixian Gongzi was good at hunting, Sun Lang bought a good bow and horse with a lot of money to send it; even the mother of Zhixian County's housekeeper died, Sun Lang could lead the people to cook, and personally wear linen and wear filial piety to guard the spirit. In short, the big and small affairs of the county magistrate are all handled by Sun Lang, and the whole family of the magistrate county does not like this generous and very sensible Sun Lang. So in less than half a year, Sun Lang became the second housekeeper of the county magistrate's family.

There are people in the DPRK who are good officials, and this is true. Since Sun Lang backed the big tree of Zhixian, he also began to cultivate power in the white road of Qingxian County, paving the way with money and installing cronies, so that he could be invincible in the Qingxian government.

The wind and water on the white road gradually reversed the decline in the black road. Although for more than half a year after that, the Wolfhead Gang was defeated and retreated in a head-to-head confrontation with the Easy Gang, and the territory was completely lost, but just one day two years ago, the Wolfhead Gang launched a full-scale counterattack.

First, the government shut down on the grounds that there were a large number of prostitutes in the green buildings under the jurisdiction of the Xiaoyao Gang, and that there were thousands of bankers in the casinos, and then the Wolf Head Gang led the crowd to smash and rob all kinds of industries controlled by the Xiaoyao Gang. As long as the Loose Gang resisted, the government stepped forward and detained the gang on the grounds of fighting and disturbing society, and instead rewarded the Wolf Head Gang for their righteous and courageous actions. The owners of the property controlled by the Easy Gang are not fools, and seeing that the Wolf Head Gang can take it all in black and white, they have changed their banners and turned to the Wolf Head Gang. In just half a month, the Loose Gang has lost its foundation and is crumbling.

Zhao Gang saw that the general trend had gone, so he was ready to take some people and horses away to set up another mountain, how could Sun Lang let the tiger return to the mountain, so he intercepted it halfway. It's just that Sun Lang underestimated Zhao Gang's strength, and he didn't expect Zhao Gang, who was still fighting as a trapped beast, to be so brave, and after half an hour of fighting, the Wolf Head Gang didn't take much advantage, but Sun Lang was injured by Zhao Gang and his brothers, and fled in all directions. Zhao Gang and the others didn't dare to chase after them, so they fled by themselves.

That Sun Lang fainted before he ran far with his injury. When he woke up, he saw an old man with white hair pointing at him, Sun Lang thought that the old man was Zhao Gang's comrade, and he was about to harm himself, so he wanted to fight with his life and get up to resist. Unexpectedly, when the old man clicked on his acupuncture point, the blood stopped coming out, and the pain was reduced, although his body did not recover, his life was saved.

Sun Lang knew that this old man was a master, and he saved himself, so he hurriedly got up and knelt down to thank him. The old man claimed to be a person who cultivated immortals, and when he happened to pass by here and saw Sun Lang seriously injured, he felt compassion, and when he came to the rescue, he found that he was a three-spirit root, so he suddenly had the intention of accepting an apprentice, hoping that he could inherit the mantle.
