Chapter 6 The Red Flower Society
In the Western Regions, there are many houses and buildings in a mountain range, and those who can live here are some masters in the rivers and lakes.
This is the headquarters of the "Red Flower Society".
Those who were able to enter the headquarters of the Red Flower Society were Han Chinese with unique skills, who were determined to overthrow the Manchu court and restore the Han people.
"Driving ......"
A middle-aged man dressed in blue, riding a horse, entered the headquarters of the Red Flower Society.
As soon as the middle-aged man got off his horse, he said to the guards at the gate: "I have urgent information and want to see the three masters." ”
The guard knew the middle-aged man, nodded and said, "Please follow me." ”
........................
The escort took the middle-aged man to the residence of the Sandang family, and happened to see the Sandangjia and a Taoist with a long sword on his back playing chess.
The three masters of the Red Flower Society, "Zhao Banshan", are the top masters of Taijimen, and the people in the rivers and lakes are called thousands of hands.
And the Taoist with the long sword on his back is the second leader of the Red Flower Society, the dust-free Taoist leader.
The martial arts of the dustless Taoist chief are even stronger than Zhao Banshan. And his power in the Red Flower Society is even more amazing, and his position is only under the chief helmsman Chen Jialuo.
When the guards and middle-aged men saw Zhao Banshan and the dustless road chief, they hurriedly saluted: "My subordinates have seen two masters, three masters." ”
Zhao Banshan glanced at the middle-aged man and nodded: "Brother Li Yu came this time, I don't know what happened to Lu Dao?"
The middle-aged man took out a letter sealed with a wax strip, handed it to Zhao Banshan, and said: "The brothers in the capital have sent news, and I am afraid that it is important information, so I have to personally come to the helm. ”
I heard the news from the capital. Zhao Banshan and Wuchen Dao Chang glanced at each other, and there was a trace of surprise in their eyes.
News from the capital, no matter how small. Attention should also be paid to it.
Zhao Banshan took the letter, tore open the wax strip, and after reading the letter, he smiled and said: "It's a good thing, it turns out to be a good thing." ”
Originally, the position of the dust-free Taoist chief was above Zhao Banshan, so he should read the letter first. But Zhao Banshan was in control of the intelligence of the Red Flower Society, so Zhao Banshan opened the letter directly.
When Zhao Banshan didn't read the letter, he thought it was bad news. I didn't expect it to be a good thing.
The dustless Taoist was stunned for a moment and asked, "A good thing, what a good thing?"
Zhao Banshan handed the letter to the dustless Taoist chief and said, "Read it for yourself." ”
Zhao Banshan waved his hand and said to the middle-aged man: "Brother Li Yu." You're tired all the way. Let's go down early and rest. ”
The middle-aged man clenched his fists and said, "Yes, the three masters." ”
..............................
After reading the letter, the dustless Taoist said with a smile: "I didn't expect that there would be a heroic boy like Wang Yue on the rivers and lakes. Less than twenty years old, he was able to surpass Baldu and Tian Guinong, and it seems that his martial arts have reached the first-class realm. ”
It turned out that this information. It was sent back by the spies of the Red Flower Society hidden in the Heavenly Dragon Gate.
Baldu and Tian returned to the capital, although they did not publicize the affairs of the royal town. But the paper couldn't hold the fire, and a few disciples of Tianlongmen still spread the matter.
The Red Flower Society has always been against the imperial court, Bal Du and Tian Guinong were deflated under Wang Yue, and Zhao Banshan and Wuchen Dao Chang were naturally happy to see it. Therefore, Zhao Banshan read the letter and said that it was a good thing.
Zhao Banshan sneered: "This guy Baldu is a first-class martial artist in his own right, and he is also a martial champion of the Manchurian people, and now he is sitting in the position of the commander of the forbidden army of the imperial court. Our brothers of the Red Flower Society, who died at the hands of Bardu, are eighty if not a hundred. It's a pity that he has been staying in the forbidden army, and we can't find a chance to kill him. ”
The Dustless Dao Leader said helplessly: "If we want to kill Baldu, we may be able to do it, but after killing him, we will definitely be surrounded by the forbidden army, and if we want to kill him, it is impossible at all." It's a pity that Baldu and Tian Guinong went to Wangjia Town, but they didn't die at the hands of Wang Yue. ”
The purpose of the Red Flower Society is to overthrow the Manchu court, even if the Wuchen Dao Leader and Zhao Banshan personally take action, exchange their lives for their lives, and kill Baldu, it will not have the slightest meaning to their cause. Because killing a general will not have much effect, and it will also be angered by the court, which will not be lost.
That's why they haven't done it.
Zhao Banshan frowned and said: "I don't know what Lu Dao is for, since thirteen years ago, after Chief Chen saw Emperor Qianlong alone, his mind has changed greatly when he comes back, and he is no longer so enthusiastic about overthrowing the Manchu court. The affairs of the Red Flower Society are rarely asked. Now he is living in seclusion with Huo Qingtong's woman in the Tianshan Mountains. I'm afraid that if this continues, sooner or later there will be a big problem with our safflower. ”
After Chen Jialuo let go of the affairs of the Red Flower Society, most of the power was in the hands of the Dustless Dao Chief and Zhao Banshan. The two of them had a lot to worry about the Red Flower Society, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't change the fact that the Red Flower Society's power was getting weaker and weaker.
The masters of the Red Flower Society, as long as they are discovered by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, will be hunted down by the masters of Ouchi, which has led to the fact that the Red Flower Society has been losing manpower.
It has been almost a hundred years since the Manchus entered the customs, and the Manchus have already taken root in the Central Plains, and it is not so easy to overthrow the Manchu court. Although the power of the Red Flower Society is not small, it is far from enough to overthrow the imperial court.
In order to enhance the strength of the Red Flower Society, as long as they found that there were powerful martial arts masters on the rivers and lakes, the Dustless Dao Leader and Zhao Banshan would find a way to let them join the Red Flower Society.
Now that they have discovered Wang Yue, a first-class master, they can't let go of the Red Flower Society.
Zhao Banshan said to the dustless Daoist: "Second brother, there are not many first-class masters in our Red Flower Society, and only a few of us are in charge, if Wang Yue is willing to join our Red Flower Society this time, it will be great." In order to show sincerity, I decided to go to Wangjia Town in person. Wang Yue, a young master, I want to see if he is really as powerful as he said in the letter. ”
The dustless Taoist nodded and said, "Well, the third one, you can go there in person, it's okay." I hope Wang Yue can join us in the Red Flower Club and discuss important matters together. ”
Zhao Banshan said with a smile: "Wang Yue is a Han Chinese, and he has already offended the Manchu court, joining my Red Flower Society is naturally the best choice." ”
Zhao Banshan rode a horse. Leaving the head rudder of the Red Flower Society, he quickly left the Western Regions and rushed to Wangjia Town.
........................
Wang Yue killed the forbidden army. Half a month has passed since Baldu and Tian were driven away and returned to farming.
For half a month, the Manchu court did not come to trouble Wang's town, which made Wang Yue breathe a sigh of relief.
Wang Yue only wants to develop Wangjia Town now, and he doesn't want to fight against the Manchu court unless he has to.
After all, as long as you open the killing ring. Wang Yue is about to face the pursuit and encirclement of the imperial court, although Wang Yue is not afraid, but he also does not want his sister and himself to live a frightened and displaced.
this day. Wang Yue is developing medicine for colds and flu at home. Wang Yue knows a lot of prescriptions for treating colds, but he wants to develop herbal medicines into Chinese patent medicines, so that people can take them anytime and anywhere. Moreover, it is necessary to ensure that the Chinese patent medicine has a shelf life of at least half a year. Then it's time to experiment.
Now all pharmacies sell herbs directly, and then let the sick take them back to boil medicine to take, Wang Yue believes that if his Chinese patent medicine is successful, he will definitely earn a huge amount of wealth, and it is not impossible to become the richest man in China when the time comes.
"Well, it's pretty much it. Try a few more times, and I'm sure you'll be able to improve it. Wang Yue looked at the bottles and cans in the room. Secretly said in my heart.
"Brother, someone is looking for you. Sister Wang Jing's voice came from outside.
Wang Yue frowned and asked, "Are you here to learn martial arts again?" Let them go back, and when I think about it, I will teach them uniformly." If you want to apprentice, forget it. ”
Ever since Wang Yue revealed his unfathomable martial arts and swordsmanship, the young people in Wang's small town have come to Wang Yue to learn martial arts. Wang Yue has the intention of opening a martial arts hall in Wangjia Town, but now is not the time. Because of economic conditions, Wang Yue can't support a martial arts gym.
Wang Jing walked in with a slightly chubby middle-aged man and said, "It's not from the town, it's this gentleman." ”
Wang Yue looked up at the person behind Wang Jing, and his heart suddenly became solemn, master!
This middle-aged man is a top master, and he is still one step away from becoming a grandmaster martial artist.
Wang Yue secretly said in his heart: "No wonder I didn't find this guy, it turns out that his martial arts are still above me." ”
Wang Yue has been practicing martial arts for three years, although he has reached the level of a first-class martial artist, and his inner fist has also broken through to the level of dark strength, but after all, the time of martial arts training is too short, and it is already incredible to have such an achievement.
Even if Wang Yue had a large number of martial arts secrets and cultivation experience, it was impossible to compare with a peerless master who had cultivated martial arts for decades.
"Who are you?" Wang Yue asked the middle-aged man.
The slightly chubby middle-aged man clenched his fists and smiled: "Zhao Banshan will be in the next red flower." Wang Yue Shaoxia is really a heroic boy, so young, his martial arts cultivation is not much different from me. ”
Wang Yue was shocked in his heart and asked, "The Red Flower Society is the third master, Zhao Banshan?"
Why did the people from the Red Flower Society come to the door? Wang Yue wondered in his heart.
Wang Yue said to Wang Jing: "Since Senior Zhao is here, then we must greet him well, sister, you go to Wang Butcher's house to see if he still has any meat there, buy some back." Also, buy some wine back. ”
Wang Jing knew that Wang Yue and Zhao Banshan might have something to discuss, so he nodded and said, "Well, I'll go now." ”
After Wang Jing went out, Wang Yue said to Zhao Banshan: "Senior Zhao, the smell of medicine here is too strong, let's go to the hall to talk." ”
Zhao Banshan nodded and said, "Okay." ”
..................
Wang Yue took Zhao Banshan to the hall house, suddenly made a move, and attacked Zhao Banshan with a punch.
Zhao Banshan was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand, and blocked Wang Yue's fist.
"Bang"
There was a slight shock in the air, and both of them were shocked back by the powerful force and took half a step.
Wang Yue sneered and struck again, this time Wang Yue attacked with extremely fast speed.
The speed of Zhao Banshan's attack was no slower than Wang Yue's, and his arm actually shot out phantoms in the air.
"Bang bang bang...... Smack......"
The two fought dozens of moves, and Wang Yue retreated and stopped.
Wang Yue and Zhao Banshan's fight was not a life-and-death contest.
The force was controlled, and the ground was not damaged in the slightest. Otherwise, with Wang Yue and Zhao Banshan launching a frenzy, with tens of thousands of catties of force bombardment, the house will definitely be demolished.
Wang Yue hugged his fists and smiled: "Zhao Sanye's martial arts are really extraordinary, and he can already spread his dark energy all over his body. The title of 'Thousand Hands Rulai' is well deserved. ”
Wang Yue tried Zhao Banshan's martial arts and found that Zhao Banshan's cultivation was also an internal fist, and it was also an authentic Tai Chi internal strength. After seeing Zhao Banshan's martial arts, Wang Yue completely believed that he was the third leader of the Red Flower Society.
It is now the Qianlong period, and the Taijiquan of Wudang and Chenjiagou are changing to the inner family boxing.
Wang Yue didn't know anyone from the Red Flower Society, so he had to be cautious and try his hand at Zhao Banshan. People can impersonate, but martial arts are not so easy to impersonate.
Zhao Banshan said with a smile: "Wang Yue Shaoxia's martial arts are also extraordinary. I didn't expect Wang Yue Shaoxia to use Tai Chi internal strength, I don't know which one your master is?"
Zhao Banshan also tried out Wang Yue's internal strength, which is the internal strength of Taiji, and he thinks that Wang Yue is also a member of Taijimen.
Wang Yue said with a smile: "My inner fist is just a wild way, and it can't compare to Zhao Sanye's fame." Zhao Sanye, please take a seat, I don't know what you came to me for this time?"
After Zhao Banshan sat down, he said: "Wang Yue Shaoxia, since you know the name of my Zhao Banshan, and you also know the Red Flower Society, I want you to come here and know what my Red Flower Club does." ”
Wang Yue nodded, and said with a smile: "Zhilu Dao, rebellion, who doesn't know Lu Dao, the imperial court has been wanted by you." Ever since your boss founded the Red Flower Society in Wanting, it seems that your struggle with the Manchus has not been broken. I don't know how you Chief Helmsman Chen is doing now?"
Zhao Banshan's face changed slightly, and he secretly said in his heart, this Wang Yue is young, and he seems to know a lot about the Red Flower Society, and it seems that his identity is not ordinary.
Countless thoughts instantly ran through Zhao Banshan's mind, and he even wondered if Wang Yue would be a pawn set up by the Manchu court, specially used to deal with the Red Flower Society.
Wang Yue saw that Zhao Banshan's face had changed, and he knew what he was afraid of: "Zhao Sanye, don't worry, I, Wang Yue, am not from the Manchu court. Since Zhao Sanye has scruples and it is inconvenient to say what he means, then we might as well talk about the others first. ”
Zhao Banshan was puzzled: "I don't know what Wang Yue Shaoxia wants to talk about?"
Wang Yue picked up the small bowl on the table, which contained snow-white refined salt.
Wang Yue handed the small bowl to Zhao Banshan and said with a smile: "Third Master Zhao, what I want to cooperate with your Red Flower Society is salt." Such a snow-white and flawless refined salt, even Emperor Qianlong, could not eat it. What do you think?"
Zhao Banshan dipped his fingers in a little salt and put it in his mouth, and his face suddenly changed dramatically. The salt is salty, and there is no trace of bitterness or peculiar smell.
"Good salt. ”
Zhao Banshan's eyes lit up and asked, "How much snow salt can little brother Wang Yue produce?"
Although Zhao Banshan is not a businessman, he also knows that salt is related to people's livelihood, no matter which dynasty or generation, those in power will spare no effort to crack down on illegal salt.
The Red Flower Society is also engaged in the sale of private salt, and if such exquisite snow salt can be mastered, then the Red Flower Society will get a big gold mine.
Wang Yue said with a smile: "I, Wang Yue, have no power or power, where is the snow salt to provide you with the Red Flower Society? However, the recipe for making salt is here." ”
Formulation?
Hearing that Wang Yue had a recipe for learning salt, Zhao Banshan's breathing was a little heavy.
"I don't know what Wang Yue Shaoxia will pay if you want me to safflower?" asked Zhao Banshan. (To be continued......)
