At noon, the wind and rain were blowing on the river bank.
Several empty ships were docked in the port, and there were few people in the dock market. From time to time, shouts came from the Goulan Wine Shop:
"Come and drink..."
"Big, big... Oh -"
…
Most of the market buildings are old, but on the adjacent river bank, there is a courtyard surrounded by mountains and rivers, hidden among the trees. From the pier, only the cornices and blue tiles can be seen.
The manor is called Qinglian Villa. It is the private residence of the powerful people in the capital. They only come to stay for a few days in the hot summer. They are usually taken care of by the "nursing house" and they take care of the business at the wharf. This is where the name of the "Qinglian Gang" comes from.
Come.
Although it is called the 'Qinglian Gang', it has nothing to do with the Jianghu gang. The only one who counts as a Jianghu gang is the gang leader Yang Guan, and the others are all local gangsters, about a hundred people.
Yang Guan studied art in Wuzhou Sanjue Valley since he was a child, and his skills are not bad. After taking root in the capital, relying on his connections, he managed to get rid of the local gangsters on the dock in just a few months, monopolize Jiang'an Wharf, and recently reached out to the interior of the capital.
, want to expand business.
Most of the families that can do business in the capital are backed by wealthy families and are either rich or noble; local snakes have long been entrenched in the streets and alleys without backgrounds.
Yang Guan searched for a long time and found that the Tianshui Bridge area was very clean!
Several merchants headed by the Pei family have money, no one is an official, and there are no other local snakes nearby to grab the territory.
Wherever such a big fat sheep is placed, it is like a free land. Yang Guan will not be polite. He has been 'communicating' with merchants this month and trying to gain a foothold in Tianshuiqiao.
Yang Guan's ambitions are undoubtedly lofty, but the consequences are immediate.
At noon, in Qinglian Villa, Yang Guan, wearing a member's outer robe, was talking in the living room:
"Pei Sanniang from Tianshuiqiao is really disrespectful. Yang sent out invitations twice, but she didn't show any respect. She just sat down to drink tea and chat for a while. It's not like she was greedy for her beauty..."
"Well, Pei Sanniang has a strong temper and has some friendship with the government. The nearby businesses all follow her wishes. Yuan Yuanwai wants to send some people to help drive away the troublemakers, which is a good thing. But Pei Dadong's family doesn't agree, so we
It’s really hard to make a decision with these companies..."
…
Several big bosses are all wealthy businessmen near Tianshui Bridge. For local gangsters like Yang Guan, the merchant family does not dare to offend them, but just tactfully pulls the matter onto the Pei family who was not present; if the Pei family cannot stand it,
, then this 'hard-earned money' must indeed be given.
Yang Guan didn't know why the woman in charge of the Pei family had such a harsh tone. He wanted to use kindness and power at the same time and asked several bosses to pass the message on his behalf. Suddenly, a cry came from outside:
"Gang leader, gang leader..."
Several people in the living room muted their voices and looked outside the door.
Yang Guan, wearing a member's outer robe, patted the tea cup on the table:
"How many times have I told you to call me boss?"
The man with the sword ran in from outside the living room and came in panting:
"My boss, a guest came to visit. The head escort from Tianshuiqiao, Chen, said he was the eldest young master of the Pei family..."
"Um?"
Several foreign ministers were stunned when they heard this.
Pei Luo, the eldest young master of the Pei family, is quite famous. Because he is the only child of the Pei family, the Pei family has indulged him since he was a child. He spends a lot of time and alcohol instead of doing his job, and he is considered a famous prodigal son in the neighborhood.
Yang Guan had obviously heard of Master Pei's reputation, and his eyes were surprised:
"Pei Sanniang came uninvited and allowed such a dandy to come to the door. Is it because she wanted to prevaricate Yang? Let her come in."
Several foreign ministers saw this and stood up:
"Then I'll take my leave first. Yang Yuanwai and Mr. Pei will have a slow chat. Once they're done, send someone to let me know."
Yang Guan served tea to the guests and sat under the nave to wait.
Tap tap tap——
Soon, the sound of dense footsteps sounded from the corridor outside the courtyard.
As the servant raised his hand to lead the way, a young man in black robe strode in. He was tall, with a stern face and a good momentum.
Chen Datou, who was somewhat famous in Tianshuiqiao, trotted in front of him holding an umbrella, and his attitude was quite flattering.
Behind them were five bodyguards, led by an old man carrying a long black sheath sword.
Yang Guan raised his eyebrows, feeling that the person coming was not an idle playboy, so he put down the teacup.
Several wealthy businessmen who had just walked out had heard about what happened at the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau yesterday. They estimated that this strange young man was the ruthless man who came yesterday. They all stopped in their tracks and greeted him:
"The young master is quite unfamiliar. Are you the eldest young master of the Pei family?"
Ye Jingtang did not respond, strode up the steps, took the saber from Yang Chao's hand, and entered the gate directly.
Kata——
The door was closed by Yang Chao, shutting out everyone who looked confused.
Chen Biao almost banged his nose on the door. Just as he was about to ask what Shaodong was doing, he heard from inside the house:
Choking——
The sound of drawing a sword!
In the room, Yang Guan, who was sitting in the main seat, realized that the momentum was not right, so he raised his hand and reached for the broad-backed sword placed under the nave.
At the same moment, Ye Jingtang suddenly rushed forward, unsheathed his long sword in mid-air, and slashed Huashan with a force, directly hitting Yang Guan's head.
Sa——
There was a flash of sword light in the living room.
Yang Guan's skills were not bad, and the sword was already raised in front of him in the blink of an eye, but the difference in explosive power between them was too big. As soon as he raised his hand, he was hit by a heavy sword, and the back of the sword hit his chest, directly crushing the chair where he was sitting.
Wow——
"you--"
Yang Guan fell to the ground and wanted to reprimand, but he found that the kid in front of him who suddenly came to the door was directly aiming to kill people. In the blink of an eye, he stabbed the door of his heart with another knife.
Yang Guan's hair stood on end. The skills he had learned since childhood were at their best at this moment. He slammed his feet on the floor, forcibly distanced himself from the blade, and at the same time raised the knife to fight back.
when--
The blades collided again.
Yang Guan slashed out with his sword, without injuring his opponent at all. Instead, he was knocked back by the opponent's huge force. The lacquered wooden nave where his back was pressed against was immediately smashed, and he fell out of the passage door at the rear.
"cough--"
Yang Guan fell into the rain curtain in the rear courtyard, let out a muffled cough, and rolled sideways with all his strength without even having time to look ahead.
Just as he expected, the next moment, a knife struck the spot where he landed, more than three-thirds of the way into the stone.
"You guys..."
Yang Guan rolled up and stood up, with an angry face and holding the knife and wanted to speak, but he saw the expressionless young man pulled out the long knife and walked over again, unhurriedly, and even twisted his neck, there was no hatred in his eyes, just It shows the ordinaryness that is accustomed to it.
Yang Guan was horrified in his heart. He didn't see anything else, except that he must have killed someone before.
He held the knife in both hands and shouted angrily. He seemed to be about to charge forward, but he moved towards the back of the house. He pulled away a few steps, then ran toward the backyard with the knife in hand, shouting at the same time:
"Everyone who came here is fucking dead..."
clang--
As soon as the words were spoken, a biting cold wind came from behind.
Yang Guan's skills were really good. He made a backhand slash and accurately blocked the incoming blade. However, his body could not withstand the huge force and he was thrown forward and fell to the ground. The knife in his hand was also knocked out of his hand.
Ding-ding——
Yang Guan didn't have time to take care of the big knife. He got up and wanted to run to the back room, but this time there was no chance. As soon as he got up, the back of his head sank. He was stepped directly against the wet bluestone floor tiles by his boots. A cold light flashed in front of his eyes.
fall.
Cha——
"Wait a minute, young hero! Spare your life, spare your life..."
In the elegant courtyard under the drizzle of rain, a heartbreaking cry came out.
Ye Jingtang stood quietly in the rain, stepping on the left side of Yang Guan's face, inserting the blade in front of his eyes, looking down, and then he had some expression:
"You send a message to the Pei family and ask someone to come and talk about it? Let's talk about what."
Yang Guan's face was twisted, but he was not angry at all. He just stared at the knife in front of him:
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding. I have been blinded by lard, and I don't know that Young Hero is also a member of the Pei family. This is the capital, and it is difficult to account for people's lives. Young Hero, please don't be impulsive..."
"I heard that you are the apprentice of the 'Three Wonders Immortal', but your skills are not very similar."
?
Yang Guan didn't expect that this kid knew who his master was, but he didn't dare to be crazy now and quickly explained:
"Registered apprentice, my family has some friendship with the master, I have been learning the art for several years, but I haven't learned the real thing, which makes the hero laugh..."
"For the sake of your master's reputation, I will spare your life."
"Thank you so much, young hero...ah——"
Before Yang Guan finished speaking, he screamed.
The blade was pulled out and then dropped, directly inserted into the right arm, like a nail like bluestone.
Yang Guan's face was directly distorted, and he looked at Ye Jingtang, his eyes were horrified, and he was speechless at all.
"I'm afraid that you think I don't dare to strike with this knife. I may not be able to kill your master, but it's really easy to kill you. Say goodbye."
Cha——
Ye Jingtang pulled out his sword, wiped the bloody blade on Yang Guan's clothes, sheathed the sword, turned and walked towards the living room.
Yang Guan gritted his teeth, covered his bleeding right arm and got up, not daring to cry out in pain, and watched Ye Jingtang leave.
Squeak——
The door to the living room opens.
In the courtyard outside, dozens of gangsters armed with iron weapons had surrounded them; bodyguards such as Yang Chao and Chen Biao stood guard in front of the door with swords in hand as if they were faced with a formidable enemy.
Several wealthy businessmen with surprised expressions stood at the gate of the courtyard.
Ye Jingtang closed the door, threw the knife to Yang Chao, took the umbrella and held it above his head:
"We're done talking, let's go."
"So quick..."
Chen Biao muttered something in a low voice, but did not ask what to do. After all, the noises and screams in the house could be heard by people outside, and even fools knew how to talk about it.
A group of thugs in the yard, seeing that the 'gang leader' didn't even show up, dared to stop him, so they all moved out of the way in the rain.
Several wealthy businessmen didn't know whether this descendant of the Pei family had directly hacked Yang Guan to death, and they didn't dare to talk to him.
swish swish...
There was silence in the huge manor, except for a black umbrella, which slowly floated out of the alleyway between the white walls and blue tiles.
It wasn't until the carriage left the gate that there was another noise in the yard:
"Gang leader? Gang leader, are you okay? How dare such a big fanatic... Go and report to the official..."
"Go away! You are a bunch of trash... and you still report to the official..."
