A few days later.

In a rental house.

Holding the pocket watch and looking at the time, Gu Chaoyun secretly counted the beating seconds hand in his heart.

The sounds outside the window, the whistle of the car, the sound of the wind, and the chirping of birds, all gradually fell silent, quiet and dead.

The whole world seems to be frozen at this moment, lost its vitality.

As if feeling something, Gu Chaoyun slowly sat up from the sofa.

In an instant, a whistling wind suddenly blew in his ears. Everything in front of me was like sand and stones that had been washed and polished by thousands of years of wind and rain in an instant, scattered silently, rolled up with the wind, and turned into a torrent that covered the sky and the sun.

The vicissitudes of the sea, the mountains move by land, in the blink of an eye.

Gu Chaoyun was so blown by the wind that he could barely open his eyes, and his cheeks hurt.

I don't know how long it has been, but the heaven and earth in front of me have reunited and the torrent has retreated.

Gu Chaoyun looked fixedly, but he was stunned on the spot......

……

In 1898, Shenzhou sank, and the family and country were in chaos.

There has been a drought in Shandong for many years, the epidemic of boiled plague, and the dead are not counted, resulting in the people living in poverty and the people fleeing.

Shanghai, which was controlled by the British at the time, became the first choice for the influx of refugees.

It is rumored that this ten-mile foreign field is drunk with gold and gold everywhere. In this way, it naturally attracts countless people to rush to break out of the world.

Therefore, the masters of all parties gathered here, and the big and small gangs were even more deceitful, swallowing each other, and under the shadow of swords and swords, countless bloody storms were set off.

And to this day, everyone who begs for a living on the beach and has been in the mess, even if it is a flower child who begs for food and money on the street, a girl who accompanies people in a brothel, and a child who has not dried up, I am afraid that I have heard that there are three kinds of people in this realm that cannot be provoked.

Tan Siye, Yang Shuang, and the British.

The first two are black and white, and they are all domineering goods in Shanghai. One person is friendly with the British, and the other has a patrol house as a backer, each of them dominates one side, and is an underworld giant, and he is indispensable.

Tan Si, a refugee from Shandong who fled to Shanghai, was only eighteen years old that year, but with a pair of fists, in just a few years to lay this huge family foundation, with only one person, leveling countless gangs, but also bulldozing the famous Kwantung Seven Tigers, and finally climbed the relationship with the British, so as to dominate Shanghai, one step to the sky.

No one knows how powerful Tan Si is, only that the amount of money he earns every day is no longer calculable.

There are too many waterways, many restaurants, dance halls, and the oil and water of those storefronts and shops in the market, as well as the trade of goods in the entire Shanghai wharf, and the benefits of many gang leaders.

It stands to reason that such a person should have been happy.

But today, Tan Siye is not interested.

He is known as Tan Siye, but he is not old, he is in his prime, his stubble is blue and black, he is in his thirties, he is dignified, with thick eyebrows and phoenix eyes, not angry and self-assured, and the whole person exudes a kind of compelling momentum that has been raised in a high position for many years from head to toe, calm and domineering.

In the racecourse, Tan Siye stroked his beloved horse, but he didn't look at the men with blue noses and swollen faces beside him, and asked with interest: "How many brothers in the gang did he defeat alone?" ”

The middle-aged man with a scar on his face on the side said, "Thirty-two." Looking at his early twenties, he is not very old, and he looks like a reader, but he is ruthless and black-hearted, and his methods are complicated, which makes people unguardable. ”

Tan Siye's interest seemed to be greater, and he let out an surprised "oh", and thought thoughtfully, "More than twenty years old?" With bare hands? That's really interesting, with your strength plus thirty-two fierce men, with guys, you will be beaten without the power to parry, and sure enough, it is the back waves of the Yangtze River that push the front waves. ”

You must know which of his subordinate brothers was not born and died from the sword and sword shadow step by step, with blood on their hands and killing people under the knife, which is very different from thirty-two ordinary people. The one in front of him is even more good at poking his feet, and he can be regarded as one of his right-hand men, who once single-handedly overturned the gang forces of hundreds of people, but he didn't expect that now he would be beaten down by a little-known person.

Smiling, Tan Si continued to ask, "What gang did you just say?" ”

The subordinate lowered his head in some shame, "Power Gang!" ”

"The Power Gang? It seems that this man is not very ambitious, but it sounds much better than those hypocritical villains. How many brothers did he take? ”

Tan Si asked again.

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, and replied with a strange expression: "Just him, looking at the entire Shanghai Beach, who dares to go against the fourth master, and the hairy boy who doesn't know the height of the sky dares to use this name." ”

Tan Siye turned his head to look at his subordinates, and said with a smile: "I, Tan Si, have always had clear grievances, he can kill you, but he only hurts you and doesn't kill him, and his subordinates are merciful, but you think he doesn't know the height of the sky?" Alas, there is no room for people in the heart, how can it be a big thing? If you have a narrow vision, you will only harm others and yourself in the end. ”

Scarface's body shook, and he hurriedly said, "Yes!" ”

Tan Si continued to stroke the horse's neck and asked, "Do you know where he came from?" ”

The middle-aged man nodded, "I know, I heard that he fled from Shandong, took the waterway, and took the 'Far East', and there were originally about fifty refugees on the ship, and in the end he walked down alive." After getting off the boat, he ate seven more bowls of wontons, and then entered the gambling house, and won 30,000 oceans of us in half an hour, and the brothers began to pay attention. ”

"I am willing to gamble and lose, after all, we are open to do business, how can I bend my face and let others see me? Say we can't afford to lose? Tan Si combed the mane on the horse's neck, he knew that his brothers must be unconvinced, but he didn't expect to run into hard stubble. But 30,000 yuan is not so easy to take, what is he for? ”

The middle-aged man reported truthfully: "He first customized a suit, and then sat on the street openly shouting to recruit his brothers and began to recruit soldiers. At first, there were still people who thought about the ocean in his hand and agreed to join, but as soon as our people appeared, those people ran away. ”

Hearing this, Tan Siye couldn't help but smile, "Hehe, it seems that you still don't understand, people are clearly coming for me, I earned favor first, and I have the upper hand, and now I am afraid I want an explanation." ”

At the end, he changed his words, as if he had reacted, and said strangely: "Eh, by the way, isn't there a good player in the gambling house in the gambling house?" can actually sweep away our 30,000 oceans in half an hour, and it seems that he is also proficient in some thousand methods, have you found out any doorways? ”

Scarface bowed his head respectfully, "Look, I was the closest at the time, from the beginning to the end, that kid is skillful, knowing that he is doing a thousand, but he just can't find a trace of horses, so he can only watch him leave." ”

"That's it!"

Tan Siye turned over and said with a smile: "Power Gang?" Hehe, okay, then let's go meet this little brother! ”
