Zangbei City is also located in the north of Qiyun, but what really makes Zangbei City famous in China is the He family of Zangbei City.

is not a martial arts family, and there is no big official in the DPRK as a backer, but whether it is officialdom, the underworld, or the Jianghu guests, they all sell the He family's three-point thin noodles, and the people who see the He family will also greet them respectfully.

If you want to say why the He family has such treatment, it is only because of two words, silver. Whether it is prosperous or troubled, once you have silver, many troubles will be solved.

No one knows how the He family earned the first pot of gold, only that the He family's silver seems to be inexhaustible, and no one remembers when the He family started.

If you can stand in the last three in this ring in the fight, and you can defeat the previous top three, as long as you are willing to stay in the He family, you will be worshiped for life, if you are not willing to serve in the He family, the He family will also give a large amount of gold and silver.

Compared with wandering in the rivers and lakes, these individual tourists are naturally willing to enjoy this cold day with clothes and hungry food, so very few people are willing to leave the He family.

Different from the absorption of talents by the Golden Daomen, it is said that only because of the ancestor of the He family, "do not stain the affairs of the rivers and lakes", the He family never participates in the disputes of the rivers and lakes.

The annual Yuan Day Festival is a big day that everyone in Zangbei City looks forward to, not only a festival event, but also a free to go to the He family's mansion to watch the people in the rivers and lakes who have never been seen on weekdays.

Of course, these are just "dancing guns and sticks, fists and feet" in the eyes of the people. But for the fledgling in the rivers and lakes who want to become famous overnight, or who have been wandering for a long time and want to find a home, the ring of the He family courtyard is a good opportunity that they cannot miss in their eyes.

Therefore, before the Yuan Day Festival, inside and outside the city of Zangbei, the lively people, the rangers of the rivers and lakes, and even the generation of chickens and dogs, will pour into Zangbei, just to wait for the He family to fight.

This year, it is no exception, tomorrow is the day of the opening of the He family's courtyard, the large and small inns in Zangbei City are full, and even at night, some Jianghu guests who can't find the inn will sleep on the streets of Zangbei.

It stands to reason that so many Jianghu guests gather in Zangbei, there will be occasional fights, and even disputes between Jianghu guests, but Zangbei City has never had public order chaos because of this, and the people have been disturbed by Jianghu guests, and even the capital protector of Zangbei City has not increased manpower to maintain order.

Of course, this kind of order is still because of a few words from the ancestor of the He family, "The He family does things, very face, three points of face, three points of affection, three points of decency, if someone does not give this nine points of thin face, then the He family, let him see this last point of anger." ”

The words of the ancestor of the He family were shocked, Rao is these Jianghu guests no longer understand the rules, no matter how arrogant and domineering they are, they are also well-behaved, polite and courteous when they are in Zangbei City.

The He family not only set the rules for the Jianghu guests, but also did a lot of good deeds for the people of Zangbei City on weekdays, whether it was repairing bridges and paving roads, or opening a warehouse for disaster relief in the year of the catastrophe, even on weekdays, the people of Zangbei encountered difficult things to deal with, and in desperation, they asked for the door of the He family, as long as it was not a violation of the Qiyun Code, the He family would also come forward to solve it.

With such a big family, how can the government not be reassured, and the people praise it, and even the children's songs passed down by the people of Zangbei have been changed by each family to praise the merits of the He family.

"Zang Bei is good, Zang Bei is wonderful, what is the way of Zang Bei. He Jia is good, He Jia is wonderful, and the people are all in the temple. ”

Three or five pigtailed children, dressed in fancy jackets and holding some bamboo horses, military flags, and firecrackers in their hands, ran around in the crowd, while the other children laughed and chased after them.

Xu is the rise of play, a few pigtails in front of the children, one of them with pigtails, in order not to be caught by the playmates, ran faster, did not notice the slightly raised stones on the ground, the toes of the cotton shoes stumbled straight on the stones, lost the center of gravity of the body, and was about to fall.

At this moment, a pair of slender hands held the child, with a smile, the owner of this hand said with a smile: "There are many people here, if you fall, your father and mother will be distressed, I see that there are fewer people there, why don't you take your partner to play there?" ”

The child flashed his big eyes, but he still smiled and nodded to the man, and ran towards the place where the people pointed to the few people, and the general ran two steps, as if remembering something, turned around again, ran back to the man, stuffed the bamboo horse in his hand into the man's hand, grinned at the man, and then jumped up and down to catch up with his companions, and continued to chase the game of talent.

The man looked at the bamboo horse in his hand, got up at a loss, scratched his head, carefully tied the bamboo horse to the side of the saddle he was holding behind him, and gestured to the child who was still waving his little hand in the distance.

It wasn't until the child's figure disappeared at the corner of the street that he looked back, and the woman in white and hat who was walking with the horse on her side spoke: "Maybe a few years ago, when I came to Zangbei City, I didn't come to this Yuan Day Festival, I didn't expect the Yuan Day Festival in Zangbei to be so lively, it was several times more crowded than the streets of Liangzhou. ”

Seeing that the woman in white beside her just said a cold "En", and did not answer the conversation, this person saw that the woman's words were cold, as if she was accustomed to it, the wine on her lips appeared slightly, and she teased the woman in white and said: "Miss Jiang, along the way, what you said adds up, and it is not as much as one night in the Lingzhou Metropolitan Protector Prison." ”

The woman in white seemed to be accustomed to the 'monkey spirit' appearance of the young man beside her, her cold eyes were looking through the hat, she glanced at the young man, and then said: "Zangbei He family, Chongyang pen, green silk winding, Murong Gu, let's come this time, where to start with the investigation." ”

When the young man heard the woman's words, the wine on his lips disappeared, and then he frowned and said: "Although these are clues to different things, they all point to the He family, so we have to go to the He family first." ”

After speaking, the young man's starry eyes looked around in the crowded crowd, and continued to speak: "However, at the moment, we still have to find a place to settle down first." ”

The two people who talked to each other were naturally Gu Xiao and Jiang Ningxue, since the night of the Lingzhou Metropolitan Protector Prison, whether it was the death of Liu Piaopiao or the disappearance of Lin'er and others, all the clues and the search for people pointed to the He family in Zangbei City.

After bidding farewell to Wan Jun and Yan Bin, Gu Xiao came to Zangbei City in accordance with the previous agreement with Jiang Ningxue, wanting to enter the He family to investigate clues.

Unexpectedly, after the two arrived in Zangbei City, they found that the city was full of Jianghu guests with sharp weapons, Qi Yun established the country with martial arts, and Qi Shao, Emperor Qi Yun, was grateful that the chivalrous warriors of the rivers and lakes had helped Lao Yun King retreat from the enemy, so he did not issue any decree restricting martial arts people, despite this, Gu Xiao was still shocked by the scene of the city full of Jianghu guests.

On the other hand, Jiang Ningxue seems to be no stranger to this scene, and under the hat, there is still that cold appearance.

The two of them entered the city all the way, but it was smooth, along the main street of Zangbei City, leading the horse, and saw that on this street, whether it was an inn or a general goods pawnshop, all the shops were hung with a small vermilion flag, and on this flag were a small "He" word on the gold thread.

Jiang Ningxue was a little surprised at this time, but it was Gu Xiao, who had been to Zangbei City when he was traveling down the mountain, opened his mouth first, and said to Jiang Ningxue: "These shops are all regarded as the He family's industry, and it is a little strange that every family hangs the flag embroidered with the He family." Compared with two years ago, there were only a few of them, and now almost all Zangbei merchants have hung the banner of the He family. ”

Jiang Ningxue heard Gu Xiao say that in the past two years, the merchants in Zangbei already belonged to the He family, and under the hood, the beauty was even tighter, but Jiang Ningxue did not dwell too much on the business of the He family, but said, "Where are we going now." ”

Gu Xiao, who was leading the horse forward, touched his cooing belly, Gu Xiao looked at the crowded heads on the street and said, "Now, let's go and fill our stomachs first, find a place to stay, and then think about how to get into the He family to find clues." ”

Jiang Ningxue was also hungry, and she temporarily put down her thoughts, and followed Gu Xiaotong to find a place to stay, but she didn't think that the day of the He family's ring was approaching, and the inns and restaurants in the city were full, and the two of them searched for a long time, but they couldn't find any place to stay.

Gu Xiao couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, he didn't care, at the beginning of his trip down the mountain, he was cheated of money in Liangzhou City, and sleeping on the streets was much worse than now, and now he can't let Jiang Ningxue and a girl's family suffer with him. But right now, the inns and restaurants in Zangbei City are all full, which can make Gu Xiao one head and two big.

Jiang Ningxue saw what was in Gu Xiao's heart, and said: "If we really can't find a place to stay, let's go out of the city and find a deserted house and a broken temple, it's really not good, we can also find a place to shelter from the wind." ”

Before Gu Xiao could speak, behind the two of them, a bold voice with a slightly inquiring tone came.

"Mu Xiao Engong?"

When Gu Xiao and Jiang Ningxue heard this, they looked back, and saw a yellowish man standing behind the two, this man was wearing a strong shirt and robe, about thirty years old, with a pair of bubble nail wristbands on his left and right wrists, and thick calluses on the tiger's mouth.

Seeing this person, Gu Xiao was stunned at first, and then his eyes also revealed a look of joy, and the wine on his lips appeared again, and he stepped forward and smiled: "Brother Xiong." ”

The yellow man also held Gu Xiao's arm and laughed: "At first, when I saw your big body, I thought it was me dazzled, so I tried to call it, but I didn't expect it to be you." ”

"Brother Xiong, I didn't expect it to be you." Gu Xiao laughed loudly.

"This is Brother Mu's fault, on the same day, I said that as long as Xiao Engong came to Zangbei City, he would say hello to us, and we would all remember Brother Mu's kindness." The yellow-faced man said nothing, and he wanted to worship.

Gu Xiao hurriedly held up the yellow-faced man and said: "Brother Xiong, we can't help it, we can say it that day, this word Engong must not be mentioned again, we are only commensurate with brothers." ”

The yellow-faced man smiled heartily, didn't care, and said again and again: "Brother Mu doesn't like it, so let's not mention it." By the way, this is a younger brother and sister, let's just say, only a woman with a radiant spirit like a younger brother and sister is worthy of a young hero like the Shangmu brothers. ”

After some greetings, the yellow-faced man saw Jiang Ningxue beside Gu Xiao, and only then did he see Gu Xiao talking to the woman in white, so he naturally regarded Jiang Ningxue as Gu Xiao's wife, so he opened his mouth to greet Jiang Ningxue.

Gu Xiao Yuguang saw that the sword in Jiang Ningxue's hand seemed to be unsheathed, and hurriedly stopped Brother Xiong from continuing, but he was afraid that with Jiang Ningxue's temperament, Brother Xiong would say a few more words, and he would see Jiang Ningxue's sword unsheathed on the street.

The yellow-faced man also said that it was a girl who was shy, laughed, then said no more, and said to Gu Xiao again: "Since Brother Mu has come to Zangbei, if you don't dislike it, you must go to our dart bureau to live for a few days, so that we can enjoy the friendship of the landlord." ”

As soon as the words fell, Gu Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "Don't hide it from Brother Xiong, the two of us came to Zangbei City, and we also have important things to do, but we have searched all the inns in the city, but I can't find a foothold..."

Before Gu Xiao finished speaking, he heard the hearty laughter of the yellow-faced man, and the people on the street were shocked, but the yellow-faced man didn't care about the eyes of others, but he just said with joy on his face: "Sensei said that the brother can't find a place to stay, even if he finds it, let's carry you back even if we Fuyuan Dart Bureau is to carry you." Don't talk about it, I want you to come all the way, let's get tired, go back to the dart game first, and let's talk again. ”

The yellow-faced man said, a greeting, several men dressed as dart masters on the street gathered at the same time, and before the yellow-faced man could speak, these people seemed to have recognized Gu Xiao, and everyone enthusiastically surrounded Gu Xiao.

Seeing this, the yellow-faced man opened his mouth and instructed everyone, since Brother Mu is here, there is time, let's go back to the dart bureau first, and everyone listened, and stepped forward one after another, leading the horse, leading the way.

The yellow-faced man walked arm in arm with Gu Xiao and walked towards Zangbei City.
