Chapter 31 The root of the disaster! 'Yuanmeng Agreement'!
After listening to Huang Cuttlefish's advice, Tian Shile finally nodded seriously this time.
Sighing: "Oh! I have learned a lot from the experience, and I no longer dare to have that big dream of spring and autumn. Now, I understand, brother, you see clearly. What a reputation, what status, go to hell! Live!"
It’s more important than anything else! People like us who have no ability or background are like ants on the ground. No matter how hard we try, we can’t crawl far. It’s better to live a happy life day by day, which is more practical than anything else.”
Yellow Cuttlefish clapped his hands and praised: "Well said! With this kind of consciousness, you have not suffered in vain. This big man has the appearance of a big man, and the little man has the way of life of a little man. These days, it is not good to live with your tail between your legs.
No. Moreover, the land in Haicheng is barren and the people are poor, and there are not many capable people. Brother, you also have real skills. Once you get there and work hard, you can make a name for yourself. Maybe I will go there again in the future.
I am relying on you."
Huang Cuiyu's words made Tian Shile very high-spirited. He started boasting again unconsciously: "That's it. My Tiger and Leopard Fist is also a hard skill that I have practiced for more than 20 years. It's better than those of the great catchers in Qicheng."
It’s just a few points. If I become really prosperous in the future, I will never forget you. Then, when we brothers get together again, we will definitely drink him for three days and three nights!"
Huang Cuttlefish smiled and said: "Okay, I'll wait for that day! However, Haicheng is remote after all, far away from the officialdom. If you have any difficulties there, feel free to write to me at any time. I can also help you with the operation here."
Tian Shile was so moved when he heard Huang Cuiyu's concern that he almost shed tears. He patted Huang Cuiyu on the shoulder and said, "Brother, you are still righteous! Brother, I am leaving soon. I will treat you generously today! Let's go, Feng Yue Lou. Brother, please
You give me a big meal!"
Huang Squid laughed: "So loyal! Fengyue Tower is a great place! Let's go!"
The two immediately put their arms around each other and walked towards Fengyue Tower.
Walking into the bustling street, the two of them laughed and laughed, and the previous sense of crisis had been forgotten.
At this time, an old man walked across the street. The old man had a gray beard, sword-shaped eyebrows and eagle eyes. He looked in his seventies, his back was as straight as a pine tree, and his body was as strong as a gun.
When passing by the two of them, the old man suddenly raised his arm and inadvertently touched Tian Shile's heart with his finger. The old man's hand was so fast that no one around him noticed. In fact, Tian Shile only felt that he had been touched accidentally.
There was no difference in the shoulders, and he was still talking and laughing forward.
In this way, the two of them took more than a hundred steps.
Tian Shile suddenly stopped!
Seeing that his face was flushed, his face began to twist in pain, his eyes widened, and large amounts of blood continued to gush out of his mouth.
In fear, Tian Shile clung to the yellow cuttlefish on the side! He tried to open his mouth wide to say something, but the gurgling blood made him only whimper with difficulty!
puff!
In the end, Tian Shile spurted out a large amount of blood, fell to the ground, and fell heavily to the dust!
The yellow cuttlefish's face was red and dumbfounded!
Xie Xu, who was following behind, hurriedly stepped forward to check. At this time, Tian Shile had already given up his breath. He turned around and looked around, but there was no sign of the murderer.
Yellow Cuttlefish came back to his senses and giggled: "I still haven't escaped! That's how the world is. At least, my brothers can still collect a body for you!"
Xie Xu returned to the Chief Police Department and informed Xue Yang about Tian Shile.
Xue Yang could only remain silent.
In a case like this, no results will be found after investigation, and if the results are found, there will be no way to accuse the murderer. If the murderer is really questioned, it will probably only lead to more killings. In an era when power is in power, kindness and anger are sometimes just burdens.
After all, none of them can change the world.
…
Capture officer Zhao Liang led Luo Fan to the south dock of the city.
The Shuidang Lake Wharf in the south of the city is connected to the north-south trade route, and there are constant merchants all year round. All kinds of merchants traveling from the north to the south, selling salt, tea, grain, cloth, etc., have to disembark from here. It is located on an important road, so here is the place.
It is a treasure place.
Treasures will naturally attract treasure hunters. This pier alone is guarded by three gangs. They are the Tiger Claw Gang, the Double Knife Gate, and the Huangyi Gate.
Jianghu people should be vain and have enough food and clothing. Treating guests and meeting friends should not be shabby, and the expenses will naturally be high. Regardless of whether it is a black or white gang, they must have their own way of making money.
The underworld mostly involves the third-rate, such as robbery, theft, prostitution, gambling, kidnapping, and killing. The white-level path has both good and bad paths. The good ones include escorting, running businesses, teaching apprentices, etc. The bad ones also come in all kinds, such as rape.
It is not uncommon to collect protection fees, set up gambling and prostitution, and occupy mountains and become kings.
The key location of Shuidang Lake Pier has naturally become a target in the eyes of the gangs in Qicheng. Several gangs refused to give in to each other and fought for more than ten years, resulting in many casualties, but still could not solve the problem. Until three years ago, Xue Yang took the lead
, let the three strongest companies manage it together.
Xue Yang divided the merchants into twenty-four categories. The three merchants would draw lots and share the tax equally. For example, those who sold salt on the road would be collected by the Tiger Claw Gang. Those who sold tea on the road would belong to the Shuangdaomen. If
Merchants who buy and sell grain belong to the Huangyimen.
Classified in this way, even if the officials of the Tiandu Dynasty wanted to cross the river, they had to pay taxes. And after these gangs collected the money, they also had to pay monthly taxes to Prince Wu's Mansion to ensure their livelihood.
Having said that, as the lord of the world, why did the Tiandu Dynasty not manage businesses such as the docks, but instead allowed gangs to fight and seize them? They even had to pay money to the gangs themselves? Isn't this a big joke?
This is about the shortcomings left behind when the Tiandu Dynasty was established.
Back then, Li Yunfeng, the first Tiandu King of the Tiandu Dynasty, relied on his passion and the magical power of wind and thunder legs to finally overthrow the corrupt Jinwu Dynasty and establish a new dynasty after fourteen years. But at this time, the country was already riddled with holes.
, it is difficult for the people to survive.
As for Li Yunfeng, who had dealt with powerful enemies several times in succession, his luck was so great that his vitality was exhausted. His life span was less than a month. If the black and white alliances were to be forcibly eradicated at this time, even if they could succeed, they would not be able to survive until he died.
Afterwards, the new dynasty will inevitably face the crisis of disintegration.
With no choice, Li Yunfeng had no choice but to stabilize the Black and White Tao in order to plan for the follow-up. So, he and the Black and White Tao Alliance signed the "Yuan Alliance Agreement" that will determine the future of the world!
According to the "Yuanmeng Agreement", the thirty-six cities in the world and the counties and official roads under the cities are managed by the Tiandu Dynasty. However, in any area involving the black and white gangs, the Tiandu Dynasty is not allowed to interfere. Everything is governed by the "rules of the rivers and lakes"
"Handle it! Even if there is a conflict between the Tiandu Dynasty and the black and white gangs, they must abide by the rules of the world.
Yesterday, Luofan dared to casually chop Zhao Xue's sworn brother, Zhao Tao, because of the "Yuanmeng Agreement." Because Zhao Tao is a Jianghu man, he does not need to be dealt with according to the laws of the dynasty. Even if Zhao Tao wants to seek justice, in the end
We must also follow the rules of black and white. And according to the rules of the world, there is no fault in robbing someone and being injured.
In short, if the gangs belonging to the Black and White Dao engage in killing, stealing, robbing, etc., as long as it does not involve the people and people of the Tiandu Dynasty, it has no right to control it. And if the victims are the people of the Tiandu Dynasty,
Then things must be handled according to the rules of the world. In this way, the rules of the world are very important.
So, what are the rules of this arena?
Then we have to mention the "Black and White Talisman Pact" drafted by Bai Shaojun and Du Feng, the leaders of the Black and White Alliance.
Twelve hundred years ago, the age of immortals was suddenly annihilated, and everyone lost their memory. At this point, the world entered the age of martial arts. At that time, there were no morals and laws, and people fought each other with force. After decades of struggle,
There are two major forces in the world: the Black Alliance and the White Alliance.
The black alliance became the underworld alliance, and the white alliance became the white alliance.
At that time, Bai Shaojun, the leader of the Black Alliance, and Du Feng, the leader of the White Alliance, each formulated their own rules on the two days, respectively called: "Black Talisman Rules" and "White Talisman Rules".
The rules of the black talisman and the white talisman have some overlap and some differences.
For example, the first rule of both is: Tooth for tooth, those who kill will always be killed, and those who harm others will always be harmed.
The meaning is very simple. If someone kills someone else's relatives, it will be considered fair if they are killed by someone else's relatives. If someone hurts someone else, others can use the same means to hurt him back!
But there are also very different rules. For example, there is a rule in the underworld: whoever kills one person is avenged; whoever kills the whole clan is silent! But the rule of the white sect is: whoever kills one person is avenged; whoever kills the entire clan is a common enemy.
