Fish and Dragon Gang in Beiliang can only be a third-class small gang, the Old Gang Lord Liu fame is actually big, is skill at martial arts expert who the inside and outside minor, it is said the young time met by chance a Wudang Mountain rank not low immortal to be long, taught an excellent internal strength heart law, in addition oneself trained hard 30 years of family/home spreading mountain artillery thumps, many forest outlaws died when the senior master fist, what a pity the senior master temper was obstinate, the momentum was most abundant, for face-saving consideration, low under did not have to do with the government authorities masters, receives many to create obstacles, at that time the old master was unable in several brothers by the double fist and help/gang fights for state power together, in faction. Standing in great numbers Beiliang also calculates to walk sideways, as the youngest brothers made enough money, washed off one after another, the retiring rivers and lakes, pleasures of old age enjoyed retirement life, Old Gang Lord Liu of alone wooden difficult brace general situation gradually was then beset with problems, at this time wants to go to arrange the relations with the masters again, wound ripe winds the face ripe, the gray jobs of some good minute/share of thriving business, proposed pig unable to enter the temple gate, the first more than ten 20 years, these in front of Fish and Dragon Gang can only say that was what Hong Hu gate willow Jianpai of younger generation, because was filial piety money to give the foot, in addition is willing to lag behind the facial skin to do to the government authorities must not exposed to the light the manual labor, now mostly. Affluent, let alone the master gate lord, is the guest official also all filthy rich, including had the private residence in big city interior of Liangzhou Lingzhou these inches of lang and gold, Fish and Dragon Gang lagged behind finally, makes a great effort to lower the head to bend the back asks others for help to accept to be filial piety money, in the help/gang some almost must be nibbled the clean method, the political ability show improvement after illness. 鱼龙帮在北凉只能算是个三流小帮会,刘老帮主的名气倒是不小,是内外兼修的拳术高手,据说年轻时候偶遇武当山一位辈分不低的仙长,传授了一部上乘内功心法,加上自身苦练三十年的家传开山炮捶,好些绿林好汉都死在老帮主拳下,可惜老帮主性子执拗,声势最盛时,碍于面子,低不下头去与官府老爷们打交道,受了诸多刁难,当时还未年迈的帮主还能靠双拳以及帮内几位兄弟一同打天下,在帮派林立的北凉还算横着走,只不过随着老兄弟们挣够了银子,陆续金盆洗手,退隐江湖,一个个含饴弄孙颐养天年,独木难撑大局的刘老帮主便逐渐捉襟见肘,这时候再想去与官老爷们打点关系,熟络熟络脸面,好分一些日进斗金的灰色营生,就是提着猪头都进不了庙门了,前十几二十年,那些个在鱼龙帮面前只能说是小字辈的什么洪虎门柳剑派,就因为孝敬银子给得足,加上愿意拉下脸皮给官府做许多见不得光的活计,如今大多腰缠万贯,别说帮主门主,便是客卿们也都个个财大气粗,连在凉州陵州这些寸土寸金的大城里都有了私宅,鱼龙帮总算后知后觉,勒紧裤腰带低头哈腰求人收下孝敬钱,帮里一些原本几乎要被蚕食干净的门路,才略有起色。 This journey destination is the Beimang border sword travels southward the staying behind city of stage, is helping in the Lingzhou city a father from general's family junior of fourth grade military commander, and other scarce cargos will escort to that side Beimang to resell from the silk fabrics rouge of empire Jiangnan Circuit purchase, the price difference is quite considerable, but this job is no one dares to do, in the border the empire and which day of Beimang dynasty little while does not leave behind several hundred fresh/live lives, in the hand the common officer small dish guide is not necessarily able to pass through the mountain pass safely, since a that playboy has, when the father of real power military officer, on does not need to worry that Beiliang the mountain pass extremely will create obstacles along the way, only worry. Is Beimang that side roaming invader mounted bandit, Fish and Dragon Gang clenches teeth to receive this business, although makes the cutting edge to lick the matter of blood with trepidation, actually can only attain pitiful dividing the benefit, but the mosquito meat again slightly is also the meat, moreover can have the fragrant state with that son of the influential, this compared with making the really gold/metal silver must come the key, last year Fish and Dragon Gang two groups of marriage go-betweens passed on the disciple road to see the Azure Dragon to help few lords do all kinds of evil things, indignant acted, finally taking advantage of overwhelming with numerical strength hit remnantly the four limbs did not say, Fish and Dragon Gang was almost also pasted the seal by the government authorities, this was has the backer and not the difference of backer. The Azure Dragon helped the Lord that period of time be little all right is swinging the fan to Fish and Dragon Gang, clings to for dear life rottenly granddaughter who hits the senior master, making in the help/gang suppress one share foul odor up and down. 这趟出行目的地是北莽边境剑南行台的留下城,帮着陵州城里一位老爹是从四品武将的将门子弟,将一些从帝国江南道购买的绸缎胭脂等紧俏货物送往北莽那边转售,差价相当可观,不过这种营生可不是谁都敢做的,帝国与北莽王朝这会儿在边境上哪天不留下几百条鲜活性命,手上寻常的官碟路引未必能安然走过关隘,不过既然那位纨绔有个当实权将领的老爹,就无需担心北凉这边沿途关隘会太过刁难,唯一担心的就是北莽那边的游寇马匪,鱼龙帮咬牙接下这桩生意,虽说提心吊胆做着刀口舔血的事,却只能拿到可怜兮兮的一分利,但蚊子肉再小也是肉,况且能够与那位公子哥结下香火情,这比挣到真金白银要更来得关键,去年鱼龙帮一位二帮主亲传弟子路见青龙帮少主为非作歹,愤而出手,结果被人借着人多势众将四肢打残不说,鱼龙帮差点还被官府贴了封条,这便是有靠山和没有靠山的区别了,青龙帮少主那段时日没事就摇着扇子到鱼龙帮,死缠烂打老帮主的孙女,让帮里上下都憋了一股子恶气。 This juniors handles matters to the government authorities, Fish and Dragon Gang does not dare to have neglects slightly, must keep in the help/gang to shock these opportunity Fish and Dragon Gang only to remain the scraps/condescend young people of several fat business except for Old Gang Lord Liu, excelling at causes two master Xiao Qiang of both hands sword, had planned the moon/month in middle ten days retires, for this reason missed the lucky day and time, even in the help/gang did not ask that rivers and lakes human affairs many years of big guest official Gongsun Yang, together is heavy the bull horn big bow with that the rivers and lakes, will assist to take over Fish and Dragon Gang Liu Nirong with Xiao Qiang together in the future. 这趟给官府子弟办事,鱼龙帮不敢有丝毫怠慢,除了刘老帮主要留在帮里震慑那些机遇鱼龙帮仅剩几块肥肉买卖的屑小之徒,擅使双手剑的二帮主肖锵,原本已打算月中旬退隐,为此错过了良辰吉日,甚至连帮中不问江湖世事多年的大客卿公孙杨,都与那把牛角大弓一起重出江湖,与肖锵一同辅助将来要接手鱼龙帮的刘妮蓉。 The goods do not calculate too, pack a carriage exactly. If is not Beimang that transports to eats birds and animals raw, had the big bow to shoot the suspicion of sparrow very much, close to the border, TOEFL was developed in the empire post road, Fish and Dragon Gang this days walked are relaxed. An overhead horse sits woman of narrow sleeve tight clothes unexpectedly, the waist hangs a azure sheath long sword, the looks clearly are charming such as the source of trouble outstanding person, has an inviolable heroic spirit, is roughly her pair of autumn waters long pupil desolate reason. Differs the position of half horse, the Xiao Qiang progressing forerunner, although this two masters are both hands swords, is actually not on the waist hangs a sword respectively, but is a sheath conceals double sword, very strange strange, Xiao Qiang the ten points slant in sword technique reason is also sinister, under the sword the ghost not also 70-80, which rivers and lakes expert not steps in the 100 th with others life and reputation? Moreover many old-fashioned rivers and lakes person duplicates are more than heavy life, what the rivers and lakes are tasteful is ten bitter enemies reports probably, the enemy who Xiao Qiang these year every year was sought the Fish and Dragon Gang entrance is more and more, obviously Fish and Dragon Gang is really declines fiercely, this journey Beimang, will be related to the Fish and Dragon Gang layout over the next several years, will not necessarily have the mind detachable enemy to seize the chance to act. woman that the sharp qi thrives puts out a hand the sandstorm that obstructed to head on, looked into a mountain pass top, looked at mountain run the dead horse, looking is not far, was actually very long a distance, said slowly: „Master, crossed the important pass, was Beimang.” 货不算太多,恰好装满一辆马车。若非是运往茹毛饮血的北莽,就很有大弓射麻雀的嫌疑了,临近边境,托福于帝国驿路发达,鱼龙帮这段日子走得还算轻松。当头一马竟坐着一名窄袖紧衣的女子,腰悬一柄青鞘长剑,姿容分明妩媚如祸水尤物,却自有一股不容侵犯的英气,约莫是她那双秋水长眸过于冷淡的缘故。相差半匹马的位置,肖锵策马前驱,这位二帮主虽是双手剑,却并非腰上各悬一剑,而是一鞘藏双剑,十分古怪诡异,肖锵的剑术也情理之中的十分偏锋毒辣,剑下亡魂没有一百号也有70-80只,哪个江湖高手不是以他人性命和名声踩出来的？而且许多老派江湖人重名甚于重命,江湖讲究的是十世仇犹可报,肖锵这些年每年被寻到鱼龙帮门口的仇家是越来越多,可见鱼龙帮实在是式微得厉害,这趟出行北莽,事关鱼龙帮未来几年的布局,未必不会有心眼活络的仇家趁机出手。锐气勃发的女子伸手遮了遮扑面而来的风沙,眺望了一眼关隘城头,望山跑死马,瞧着不远,其实还有挺长一段路程,缓缓说道:“师父,过了关口,就是北莽了。” Although the Xiao Qiang sword technique is outstanding and swift and fierce, way one treats people are the Fish and Dragon Gang high and low recognized genialness, the temperament is also good, furthermore side woman is his last student, on the face reveals wipes the understanding happy expression, said by strong Longxi: „Master this whole life has also gone to Beimang, thinks experience that also nothing may praise, Gongsun Yang that is only actually old puzzle, the reputation actually comes out in that side wanderer.” 肖锵剑术虽超群而凌厉,待人接物却是鱼龙帮上下公认的和善,脾气也好,再者身边女子是他关门弟子,脸上露出一抹会心笑意,以浓烈的陇西强说道:“为师这辈子也才去过一趟北莽,想起来也没啥可称道的经历,倒是公孙杨那只老闷葫芦,名声其实都是在那边闯荡出来的。” woman that is wise without appearing to be extremely obviously is Old Gang Lord Liu granddaughter Liu Nirong, being astonished different way: „Isn't Gongsun guest official the old Western Shu person?” 极为内秀的女子显然便是刘老帮主孙女刘妮蓉,讶异道:“公孙客卿不是旧西蜀人吗？” Xiao Qiang touched the scabbard, sobbed in a soft voice: „Which family/home problem, puzzle is not willing to say.” 肖锵摸了摸剑鞘,轻声唏嘘道:“谁家没有一本难念的经,闷葫芦不愿说罢了。” Liu Nirong turned the head to shoot a look at a carriage, sits alone in Gongsun Yang that in the help/gang has then lived in seclusion on the vehicle, after turning the head, lowered the sound to ask: „Master, you said how many this car(riage) cargo qualification is?” 刘妮蓉转头瞥了一眼马车,在帮里便一直深居简出的公孙杨就独坐在车上,重新转头后放低声音问道:“师父,你说这一车货物本钱是多少？” Xiao Qiang said with a smile: „On cargo, then on blindingly rich Jiangnan Circuit, is not cheap, 6,000-7,000 two can take probably, in addition this Beiliang arrives in the Jiangnan to go to one, with various path ox ghosts- the transit of snake god arranges, does not have 12,000 money is not possible. But if left behind the city to Beimang, can sell 35,200 silver, returns to that government authorities juniors hands, deducts the numerous expenses, makes 10,067 unable to escape. This money, with making a snowman general, always gets bigger and bigger, so long as there is a qualification to have the method to have the background, but also feared that lacks money? These door descendant aristocratic family juniors, the people of father's generation are busy receiving to blow the flesh and blood of the people, they have not been idling, giving the devil his due, these sons of the influential but are actually not the idiots, speaking of gathering together the personal connection, Master these only knows boorish fellow who kills, ten being less effective others.” 肖锵笑道:“就货物本身来说,便是在富得流油的江南道上,也不便宜,大概得有6,000-7,000两才拿得下来,加上这北凉到江南一去一来,与各路牛鬼-蛇神的过境打点,没有一万两银子是不可能的。可要是到了北莽留下城,就能卖出三万五千两白银,回到那位官家子弟手里,扣除林林总总的开销,挣个一万六七是逃不掉的。这银子,就跟滚雪球一般,总是越滚越大,只要有本钱有门路有背景,还怕缺银子？这些将门后代世家子弟,父辈们忙着收刮民脂民膏,他们也没闲着,平心而论,这些个公子哥倒也不都是蠢材,说到拢人脉,为师这些只知道打打杀杀的莽夫,十个都不顶人家一个。” Liu Nirong sighed: „Fish and Dragon Gang misses the best opportunity, if 20 years ago can be cruel-hearted seeks personal gain, today perhaps was the Lingzhou biggest faction.” 刘妮蓉叹息道:“鱼龙帮错过最好的机会,若是二十年前就能狠下心钻营,今天兴许就是陵州最大的帮派了。” Xiao Qiang resigned-looking say/way: „Therefore the Ni hibiscus do not blame the senior master, he you introduced with difficulty to Yu beam of wealthy and powerful family Lu young master, not just seeks after the opposite party family background, is good to support by the arm Fish and Dragon Gang. The senior master on your such granddaughter, how is willing to push toward the fiery pit in you, Master has personally seen that Lu youngster, was the arrogance, the moral character was not bad, after all had been admitted to the academic honor, don't said that was our Fish and Dragon Gang, was the unmarried girl who the Beiliang largest school Dragon Gate sent, others also not necessarily could take a liking to the eye, Master this saying, although said coarse, actually was also the truth.” 肖锵一脸无奈道:“所以妮蓉你别怪老帮主,他千辛万苦把你介绍给豫梁豪族吕氏的公子,并非只是贪图对方家世,好搀扶一把鱼龙帮。老帮主就你这么一个孙女,怎么舍得把你往火坑里推,为师亲眼见过那名吕氏年轻人,就是傲气了一些,品性不差,毕竟已经考取功名,莫说是我们鱼龙帮,便是北凉第一大门派龙门派的闺女,人家也未必瞧得上眼,为师这话虽然说得难听,却也是实话。” Liu Nirong keeps silent, tight pursing the lips lip. Xiao Qiang knows that the lonely temper of this apprentice, bores tip of cows horn later ten Madula not to come back, no longer reluctantly, in the final analysis, this is the family affairs private affair of Liu, his soon must far away from the old fogy who the martial arts world has a life of Riley, to stop even seriously, but Xiao Qiang is well aware, later day whether comfortable calm and steady, but must link up with the Fish and Dragon Gang influence size directly, naturally hopes that Liu Nirong can marry a selfishness of wealthy family. Yu the beam Lu early 20 years are also only a cold clan, turn over to wealthily wealthily, but let alone the wealthy and prominent family old family, is the young hereditary scholar classes must look lowly, may seize the opportunity to be on good terms in a Beiliang army powerful figure, can rise in the Spring and Autumn gunsmoke, Beiliang army lofty tree, the packing interlocks, Lu is also known, naturally, compared with the best that ten families, was still huge difference. But these Xuan powerful officials not wealthy and prominent family juniors, Liu Nirong rivers and lakes can woman seek friendships can it be that? 刘妮蓉默不作声,紧抿起嘴唇。肖锵知道这位徒弟的冷清性子,钻了牛角尖以后十头马都拉不回来,也就不再勉强,说到底,这是刘家的家事私事,他一个即将就要远离武林享清福去的老家伙,点到即止就算本分,只不过肖锵心知肚明,以后日子是否舒坦安稳,还得与鱼龙帮势力大小直接挂钩,自然有一份希望刘妮蓉能够嫁一个好人家的私心。豫梁吕氏早二十年还只是个寒族,富裕归富裕,但别说高门世族,便是小士族都要低看,可抓住机会交好于北凉军一位实权人物,得以崛起于春秋硝烟中,北凉军这棵参天大树,盘根交错,吕氏也算小有名气,当然,比起最拔尖的那十来个家族,仍是天壤之别。可那些煊赫权贵不可言的高门子弟,又岂是刘妮蓉一名江湖女子能够高攀的？ Liu Nirong recalls anything, long exhales the one breath, a face is charmed saying: „Master, heard that Wudang new Headmaster is the immortal is reincarnated, once rode under the crane the Jiangnan, Old Sword God Li hits with Wang Xianzhi in the Martial Emperor City East Sea makes no distinction between victory and defeat, afterward only depended on a sword then to cut to kill 2600 in the Guangling river to ride, again is on peach blossom Sword God Deng Tai'e single Dragon Tiger, killed the Heavenly Master mansion to give up, until was stopped with a Heavenly Master mansion later generation by Master Lu simultaneous/uniform Xianxia, returned to the body to descend the mountain, were these real?” 刘妮蓉记起什么,长呼出一口气,一脸神往道:“师父,听说武当新掌教是仙人转世,曾骑鹤下江南,还有李老剑神在武帝城东海上与王仙芝打得不分胜负,后来更是在广陵江只凭一剑便斩杀两千六百骑,再就是桃花剑神邓太阿单身上龙虎,杀到了天师府才罢休,直到被小吕祖齐仙侠与一名天师府后人阻拦,才返身下山,这些是真的吗？” Xiao Qiang hears this, is a face respect, said with a smile: „These Divine Immortal characters, Master this whole life have not seen one, where knew the genuine and fake, a flying sword saying, Master, although has practiced the sword 30 years, even the fur of controlling sword has not caught, was, but Master rather believes that both Sword God can the governing sword thousand li (500 km) take Terrestrial Divine Immortal of severed head. The good and evil gives us these to raise Lu Dun later generation happy reading of sword to think similarly, cannot eat the delicacies of every kind in that Beiliang Royal Residence like us, but the light thinks, always can also the hypoglossis promote saliva or body fluids.” 肖锵听到这个,也是一脸崇敬,笑道:“这些神仙人物,为师这辈子都没见到一个,哪里知道真假,飞剑一说,为师虽已习剑三十载,连驭剑的毛皮都不曾抓到,就更是云里雾里喽,不过为师宁愿相信两位剑神都是可以御剑千里取首级的陆地神仙。好歹给咱们这些同样提剑的鲁钝后辈一个美好的念想,就像咱们吃不起那北凉王府里的山珍海味,可光是想一想,总也是能舌下生津的嘛。” Xiao Qiang laughs, Liu Nirong look is bright. 肖锵哈哈大笑,刘妮蓉眼神熠熠。 Liu Nirong corner of the eye split vision glimpses the body to lean a young man, her subconscious knitting the brows head. This wears can only be the pure youngster waist hangs the plain single tool, Liu Nirong only knows that is that door Heir dispatches to come, without indicating the detailed status, is responsible for supervising the cargo to transport, the general responsibility then follows closely, the ground beetle tempted to rob by sight of wealth that Fish and Dragon Gang these have not for fear that seen the world, walks off with another's possessions covertly some common actually expensive small things from the piling in heaps cargo, how can this make supercilious Liu Nirong look at him to be pleasing to the eyes? That hangs the blade young man look and gaseous state is good, the Fish and Dragon Gang No. dozens vigorous member does not have my faulty vision to thinking him the janitor from fourth grade General your family place, after all can accompany the Beimang role with Fish and Dragon Gang, this then some guessed, having to say is some stern General your family place effective son, profits at someone's expense. Having saying that is the General distant relative, receives the cultivation, this came informed and experienced. But more people thought that this leather bag good to the embroidering pillow that letting the person envies wickedly, is being intimate of that Young Master General, hey, greatly rich big your home in matter, who said? The secret scandal of dirty contamination, but also was short? 刘妮蓉眼角余光瞥见身侧一名年轻男子,她下意识皱了皱眉头。这名身穿只能算是洁净的年轻人腰悬古朴单刀,刘妮蓉只知道是那名将门世子派遣而来,也没有表明详细身份,负责监督货物运送,大概职责便是盯梢,生怕鱼龙帮这些没见过世面的土鳖见财起意,偷偷摸摸从成堆货物里顺手牵羊走些不起眼却价格不菲的小物件,这如何能让心高气傲的刘妮蓉瞧他顺眼？那名悬刀年轻男子相貌与气态俱是不俗,鱼龙帮几十号矫健成员倒也没眼拙到以为他只是从四品将军府上的杂役,终归是能够与鱼龙帮随行到北莽的角色,这一路便有许多猜测,有说是森严将军府上某位管事的儿子,沾了光。有说是将军的远方亲戚,收到栽培,这趟是历练来了。但更多人都恶狠狠心想这只皮囊好到让人嫉妒的绣花枕头,是那将军公子的相好,嘿,大富大贵门第里的事情,谁说的准？肮脏污秽的秘事丑闻,还少了去？ Liu Nirong thoughts are limpid, why naturally is not clear helps the person look why the look of young man ponders like that this ten-day date and time, generally lives in peace with each other in any case, since that person does not cause trouble, she does not certainly look for his unluckiness, had once asked in private Master Xiao Qiang this strange man skill how, Xiao Qiang only said could not see, she also feels relaxed, mostly with the bored character who that makes the ornament, the sons of wealthy families who in the rich and powerful family large clans come out in any case, good this, compared with pull out to empty the body by the wine and women obviously, returns alive to lack the strength to truss up a chicken compared with the book, actually likes to wear the sword strap sword, is really. Evil customs! 刘妮蓉心思清澈,当然不清楚为何帮里人看年轻男子的眼神为何那般玩味,反正这一旬时日,大抵相安无事,既然那人不惹是生非,她当然就不去找他的晦气,私下曾问过师父肖锵这名陌生男子身手如何,肖锵只说是看不出,她也就释然,多半是拿那柄单刀做装饰品的无聊人物,反正豪门大族里出来的膏粱子弟,都好这一口,明明比被酒色掏空了身子,比书生还手无缚鸡之力,却喜好佩刀带剑,实在是恶俗至极！ The man that rides with Fish and Dragon Gang always spreads out obvious. 单刀男子那一骑与鱼龙帮始终拉开一段明显距离。 Saw the peeping at line of sight that Liu Nirong throws, he responds with shows a faint smile. 看到刘妮蓉投来的窥视视线,他报以微微一笑。 Liu Nirong is cold the face to turn the head. 刘妮蓉冷着脸转头。 The floating astronomy thanked the support of fellow book friends, your support was we biggest power 飘天文学感谢各位书友的支持,您的支持就是我们最大的动力
