Chapter 132: Unknown forces are approaching Cloud City
Eleven followed Xiao Yishan to the street, the pedestrians on the street were in a hurry, most of them were dressed up as martial arts people, this cloud city was extremely prosperous, the sound of selling everywhere was endless, and the shops on both sides of the street were lively and extraordinary, eleven roads
"I can't imagine that this Cloud City is different from most cities in the Central Plains, and it has another characteristic, which is not inferior to the capital!" Xiao Yishan said with a smile
"The eleven brothers don't know, in fact, Yuncheng was just a post station at the beginning, and then many martial arts people took refuge here before it slowly developed into a small town, and there are three major gangs in Yuncheng, although our three gangs also want to get along well on the surface, but one mountain is difficult to accommodate two tigers, and we are also fighting openly and secretly, secretly shouting! After speaking, he smiled bitterly
"Our Yunlongtang has opened a large number of restaurants and tea houses in recent years, but we are still under the Fengshan Hall and the Qianhu Gang, what a shame!" Eleven stopped
"What, isn't your hall financially insufficient?" Xiao Yishan shook his head
"It's not that Yunlong Hall is short of financial resources, but since the Fang Hall Master became seriously ill, the other two gangs have jointly suppressed us many times, and our business is mostly outside Cloud City, so it is difficult to mobilize financial resources!"
"Then why don't you transfer your business back to Cloud City?" Xiao Yishan said
"It's so easy to talk about! It's strange to blame the hall master's worship brother. "Eleven
"What do you mean by that?" Xiao Yishan said
"Fang Tang Master had a sworn brother surnamed Guan Shan Minglong many years ago, who was originally a powerful figure in Yunlong Hall, but who would have thought that he had been plotting for a long time to use most of Yunlong Tang's financial resources in the shipping business, and then cut off relations with Fang Tang Master and swept away most of the property and shops, which is why Fang Tang Master aggravated his illness and has not healed yet. "Eleven
"Then why are you still in the brine business?" Xiao Yishan said
"Since Guan Long's treacherous takeaway of many people and property in our church, the hall master has entrusted all the affairs of the church to my father, who has gathered the remaining people in the church to redo the shipping and salt water business, after all, these are the most profitable. Eleven sighed
"Alas, what an eventful time!" Xiao Yishan said with a smile
"Okay, let's not talk about this, let's go to the restaurant in the main hall to have a drink!" After speaking, the two came to Wenyun Restaurant again, at this time, it was noon when there were many people, and the store was empty
"Senior Brother Xiao is here, there are too many guests today, let's go to the private room on the second floor!" Xiao Yishan nodded and Luo Shiyi came to the second floor again, the two found a table by the window and sat down, the shopkeeper brought a jar of wine and poured it for the two of them before slowly withdrawing out, Eleven picked up the wine glass and put it to his mouth and sniffed it
"Is this also the wine made by Miss Fang?" Xiao Yishan shook his head and said
"My young lady loves to make wine, but for the supply restaurant, the wine she makes can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket, except for the hall owner and the father who love to drink in the hall, there are only a few wines to attract customers. "Eleven
"I didn't expect Miss Fang to have such a hobby, and it is rare that the wine brewed is so delicious. Xiao Yishan Road
"My young lady likes to raise flowers and plants since she was a child, and the master of Fang Tang is also a master of winemaking, and she has also realized some peerless skills in winemaking, and the wine made by the young lady has also become the signature feature of Wenyun Restaurant. After speaking, he raised his glass and said
"Although this wine is not made by Miss Fang, it has a different taste, Eleven Brothers, please. After saying that, Eleven smiled and drank it all down
"Who made this wine, why is it so strong?" Xiao Yishan said
"This wine is called a thousand cups not drunk, it is made by a housekeeper in the hall, the difference of this wine is that it feels spicy and strong when it first enters the mouth, but it feels fragrant and fragrant in the aftertaste, and it is refreshing, so it is not surprising that the eleven brothers feel that this wine is a little strong, but after drinking a few more glasses, the eleven brothers will definitely have another opinion. Eleven laughed
"I didn't expect there to be so many talented people in your hall. The two of them inadvertently glanced out of the window while laughing, and saw three strangely dressed men, eleven saw that these three people were all tigers with bears, one with a sledgehammer pinned to his waist, one with a mace in his hand, and one with a big knife on his back, and said to Xiao Yishan with a stunning momentum
"Does Brother Xiao know the identities of these three people?" Xiao Yishan couldn't help frowning when he saw these three people, and said when he saw Eleven asking
"The three of them are all the iron-headed generals of the Qianhu Gang, they were originally important people in the gang and rarely went out to help, but why are they blatantly walking on the street today, it seems that the Qianhu Gang is going to make some big moves!"
"Is it because of unknown forces dozens of miles outside the city?" Xiao Yishan nodded
"I think it should have something to do with them, in the past ten years, no force has dared to do anything to Cloud City, and this time our spies keep coming news that there are unknown forces moving closer to Cloud City, it seems that someone is going to do something to Cloud City. "Eleven
"Can't you really find out who is behind them?" Xiao Yishan said with another sip of wine
"I'm not sure, but Zhu Yuanzhang has the biggest suspicion, and in addition, Yue Ying has no strength to subvert martial arts. While speaking, the three of them walked out of the window in the direction of going out of the city, and the people on both sides avoided one after another, and showed uneasy looks, Xiao Yishan said
"Are they going to defend the city, if so, it seems that the unknown forces must be approaching in the direction of Cloud City again. The more they thought about it, the more wrong it became, so they got up and went downstairs in the direction of the city gate.
At this time, the city gate was closed, and dozens of people on both sides were on standby, and the leader of the Qianhu Gang and the master of the Fengshan Hall on the city wall were looking out of the city with their backs, and Xiao Yishan and the two walked up to the city wall
"Hall Master Xu, Gang Master Gao, what's wrong?" Master Gao turned around and saw that it was Xiao Yishan and said
"It's nothing, it's just that some unknown forces are approaching Cloud City. Xiao Yishan Road
"This matter is not trivial, why didn't you inform us of Yunlong Hall?"
"Why are you so anxious, I have already discussed the decision to deal with them with the high gang master, and it is also for the sake of your hall that I have not informed you that Yunlong Tang is also thinking about you, now that you are in the salt business, it is when there is a shortage of manpower, how can we be embarrassed to let you contribute again!" Xiao Yishan said
"The two heads of the sect should not forget, at the beginning, our three major gangs once swore to jointly defend Cloud City, if there is an enemy to attack, they will jointly crusade, although we in Yunlong Hall are not enough manpower at the moment, but we will never back down from the obligations we should fulfill, and you are too hasty to make a decision in private!"
"Gao Gang Master, Xu Tang Master, the child is young and vigorous, if there is any verbal offense, I hope you two will forgive me. Hall Master Xu and the High Gang Master also hugged their fists in return, but their faces were extremely arrogant, Xiao Chengyun naturally couldn't get used to it, but he still endured it, and said
"I don't know what the two heads have planned?" At this time, dozens of people had appeared a few miles outside the city, and the forces of dozens of people were constantly approaching, Xu Tang said
"There must be a behind-the-scenes instigator behind these people who dare to come to Cloud City to cause trouble, so I and the Gao Gang Master decided to give them a little color first, so that they can know that not everyone in Cloud City can be provoked. Xiao Chengyun said
"We still don't know where they came from, and if we take the liberty of attacking them, will we alarm the officers and soldiers? Why don't we send a team of men and horses to ask them what they are doing here. Gao Xu and the others had already made dozens of disciples in the city ready to go out of the city to kill the sharp qi of the unknown forces first, but Xiao Chengyun rushed to stop the two at this time, and he was very displeased, so he said
"Deputy Hall Master Xiao doesn't have to worry, if we don't have the strength, how can we protect the city for decades, you better wait and see what happens!" Xiao Chengyun said unhappily
"What do you mean by this? I'm just thinking about the overall situation, if we take the liberty of using force with them, once we alarm Zhu Yuanzhang's officers and soldiers, they will definitely take the opportunity to control our Cloud City by suppressing the turmoil, won't we be on fire at that time?"
"Deputy Hall Master Xiao, don't worry, don't worry, now that the enemy is now, it's better for us to be cautious. The high gang leader snorted coldly
"Then, according to what Deputy Hall Master Xiao said, let's send a team of people to inquire when they get closer!" After speaking, he looked out of the city with his back hand.
