47. Thirteen Masters
After drinking tea for a while, Master Ding San stopped talking about kung fu and asked, "My friend carries me, Hongmen Golden Dragon, are you planning to join the club?"
Su Budong knew Hong Xing and the Heaven and Earth Association, but he didn't know much about the obligations and rights of the Hongmen disciples.
So he humbly asked for advice. He was a half-school scholar, so it would be better to ask experts directly.
Mr. Ding San said carefully. Xiangjiang will hold an opening ceremony in the near future. The new hall master can complete Su Budong's introductory procedures. Otherwise, he will not be a member of the Hongmen Jin and teach others to joke. The benefits of joining the club will not be much, but there will be many troubles if he doesn't join. For example, after Su Shulong's position is vacant, the Hongmen will always take back the Hongmen. If Su Budong wants to experience the steps, it will be a lot of fun. If Su Budong had not been a descendant of the Hongmen, the Hongmen would have already staged a full martial arts movement to retake Su Budong's golden dragon.
In addition to the Thirteenth Old Master, there are five guest elders in the Hongmen, namely Jin, Qing, Red, Black, and White. Except for the Golden Dragon, among the Thirteen and Half Old Masters, the other four dragons are worshipped by guest officials and are subject to the rules of the sect.
Subudong rehearsed for a few days, and it was time to officially open the official opening.
In the Yichou month of Yichou, the day of Gengshen, the five elements of gold, water and wood, the tiger evil south, the sky witch guards the sun, the heavenly virtue and the Mingtang, the blessings and the high officials plus wealth, the six relatives are prosperous, prosperous and healthy.
Therefore, he started his job and became the head of the hall.
The hall is open, and the most important thing is that the public receives sacrifices.
Guan Gong set up an altar table under him, with sheep horns on the left and Botao on the right.
There is a paper tower on the altar, with the running script "Gaoxi Tower". There are dragon and phoenix sticks and Hongmen knife on both sides of the altar.
Someone at the door reported the name of the person who came to watch the ceremony: "The Third Master is here", "The Eighth Master is here".
The scene was not chaotic and had a lot of rules. But Su Budong only listened there because he didn't know anything except Ding Sanye and Chen Baliang.
Su Budong was brought in by Chen Baliang because he was a fresh guest. There were many people coming and going to welcome him today, and the people at the door may not know where this god was invited.
When will the ceremony begin?
Everyone stood on both sides. One person came in, wearing a jacket, walking and walking in a dragon and tiger. Today it was Mr. Ding San to be the position of the incense chief. If he was a regular appointment with the hall master, he would not be invited to be the respected person of Ding San to be the one who was respected. It was only because Su Budong was here today that Mr. Ding San would be the person who came here to be the incense chief himself.
Xiang Chang was the host again, presided over the opening ceremony.
A few days ago, the beautiful woman and the man in sunglasses who had met Su Budong and the man in sunglasses also came here to watch the ceremony. When they saw Su Budong, they both greeted him one after another.
Su Budong nodded slightly. Although he didn't know who they were, the person who could sit with Master Ding San would not be small in the background.
The beautiful woman quietly came to Su Budong and teased: "I thanked my little brother that day, and my sister's money this year has been settled."
Su Budong quickly said that he didn't dare, "That day, I felt that I could still play with it because of three missing one. If I knew that I was playing so much, I wouldn't have participated."
The beautiful woman smiled and stopped talking. It was no longer a sign that she could give Ding San’s seat to play mahjong. It was no longer a sign of luck. It seems that Su Budong still doesn’t understand how important it is to have an identity after the table, but now is not the time to wake him up.
A fierce man came in from outside the door and bowed to everyone. He took three incense sticks in front of the stage and lit them, knelt down to Guan Gong. Then he entered the altar and sat down.
The beautiful woman quietly said to Su Budong: "This man is called Liu Dong. Although he looks fierce, he is actually more thoughtful than anyone else."
Fifty people were naked and had only white trousers left on their bodies. They entered the hall one after another. They held three incense sticks in their hands and paid a great gift to Guan Gong.
Judging from Su Budong, the scene in front of him is the other side of the Chinese whom he cannot see in the mainland who lives in the mainland. Since the Han Dynasty, the Chinese have talked about the Confucian "ritual, righteous, benevolence, wisdom and trustworthiness". Although the "ritual" ranked first still has legacy in the mainland, some old customs and habits have actually disappeared. Instead, these customs and habits have been preserved in these places outside the mainland.
Especially in the Hongmen, where the most rules are concerned, the word "ritual" is the most talked about. If there is a conflict between the two bosses, it is not about killing everyone, but about having tea together. After the tea is over, the matter is not about reaching a conclusion, and letting other things be discussed. If the matter is big, there will be an older brother in the door to calm the matter and let the two sides make a concession, and the sky is wide.
After fifty people worshipped Guan Gong, they worshipped the master as their elder brother. Su Budong saw that this man was similar to his age, but his aura rose to the sky. If he was in a chaotic world, this man must be a hero.
Su Budong quietly watched the ceremony complete.
After the rank of the post, it was Su Budong's turn to join the meeting.
The 50 people stood on both sides, and the master stood up, and his subordinates had already gotten up to move his chair away.
Mr. Ding San asked Su Budong to kneel in front of Mr. Guan Er, and told him the rules of the Hongmen, and some responsibilities and obligations that the Hongmen Jinlong had to bear. Although the Hongmen has been moving forward with the times over the years and no longer said that there are three swords and six holes, the Hongmen oath is not so easy to issue, and it is impossible to just turn it over with betrayal of the Hongmen. The so-called Hongmen thirty-six oaths are "there are treacherous loyalty, and brothers from all over the world are the same, loyal and loyalty, and the treacherous ministers will end up with the sword." That is to say, you are loyal, we all talk about you, and we will not treat you badly, but if you are a treacherous boy, you will be embarrassed. Look at the world is so big, and the earth will still be transferred to the earth, right? In addition to legal supervision, the underground world has its own set of other rules.
Then the courtesy was completed.
Master Ding San took Su Budong's hand and said to everyone: "From now on, Brother Su will be our own brother in Hongmen."
Mr. Ding San had previously told Su Budong that the Hongmen Jinlong was involved in a big deal, and today he was just taking a formality to join the association. As for the position of guest officials, it would take all the Hongmen to decide.
So Su Budong is holding on to the Hongmen Golden Dragon, but not the Hongmen Golden Dragon.
In other words, Su Budong is now a member of the Hongmen, but his status is just an ordinary person.
The person who came to watch the ceremony had already been the one who came to watch the ceremony. He clasped his fists and said to Mr. Ding San, "Third Master, there is something unknown below." The person who spoke was a real power figure of the Qing Dynasty Gang, his surname was Zheng, his name was Wanqin, and he was a person of the Qing Dynasty Gang's generation. "The Conversion of All Things, the Precepts of the Precepts" was the first among the 24th generation of the Qing Dynasty Gang.
Master Ding San frowned slightly and said, "What's the matter?"
"Brother Su is a new face. I have never heard of Brother Su's name before. Why did I hold an admission ceremony for Brother Su when Agu became the master today? I'm afraid this is not in line with the rules of Hongmen?"
Mr. Ding San snorted coldly: "So, does the Hongmen need to be recognized by the Qing Gang in doing things?"
When the man heard the big hat was pulled down, he immediately let out a cold sweat, saying, "I dare not, I just have a question, so I have this question."
Although it is said that "red flowers, green leaves and white lotus roots are originally one of the three religions", the Qing Gang came from the Hongmen, but its reputation was not good compared to the Hongmen. Because the Qing Gang had a criminal record in the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Gang became famous in the canal transportation and helped the Qing Tartars. The Hongmen once regarded the Qing Gang as a traitor, and there was also the saying "from green to red, red to green, from red to green, three knife and six holes". Later, because of the great gangsters such as Du Yuesheng in Shencheng, Huang Jinrong, Tianjin Yuan Wenhui, and Liu Guanghai, the Qing Gang's reputation has always been poor. However, for the harmony of the two factions, after the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the bosses on both sides shouted the slogans of the Qing Hong family, which gradually calmed down some of the original contradictions. However, these historical barriers cannot be easily eliminated.
