At noon, the river bank is filled with wind and rain.

Several empty ships were docked in the port, and there were few people at 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 nestled between the mountains and the water, hidden among the trees. From the pier, only the eaves and green 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 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 snakes 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 just like the land given for free. Naturally, Yang Guan will not be polite. He has been 'communicating' with merchants this month, 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 eloquently in the living room:

"Pei Sanniang from Tianshuiqiao is really disrespectful. Yang sent out two invitations, but she didn't even show her 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 depend on her. Yuan Yuanwai wants to send some people to help drive away the troublemakers, which is a good thing. But Dadong Pei'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 a local snake like Yang Guan, the merchant family does not dare to offend, but just pulls the matter tactfully and pushes the matter to 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. I wanted to use both kindness and power to ask several bosses to pass the message on my behalf, but suddenly there was a shout 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, there is a visitor here. The head escort from Tianshuiqiao, Chen, is driving. He says he is 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 in the neighborhood.

Yang Guan had obviously heard of Master Pei's reputation, and his eyes were surprised:

"Pei Sanniang didn't come in person. If you let such a dandy come to your door, are you trying to prevaricate Yang? Let him come in."

Several foreign ministers saw this and stood up:

"Then I'll take my leave first. Officer Yang and Mr. Pei will chat slowly. Once they're done, send someone to let me know."

Yang Guan served tea to the guests and sat under the central hall to wait.

Tap tap tap——

Soon, the sound of dense footsteps sounded from the corridor outside the courtyard.

As the waiter raised his hand to lead the way, a young man in black robe strode in. He was tall, with a stern face and impressive aura.

Chen Datou, who was somewhat famous in Tianshuiqiao, trotted in front of him holding an umbrella, and his attitude was quite flattering.

There were five bodyguards behind them, the leader of which was 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 tea cup.

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 and greeted:

"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, 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 directly towards 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 great. 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 rebuke angrily, but 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, and the skills he had learned since childhood were at their best at this moment. He kicked the floor with both feet, forcibly widening the distance between him and 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, but did not hurt his opponent at all. Instead, he was knocked back by the opponent's huge force. The lacquered wooden nave where his back was pressed was smashed immediately, and he fell out of the passage door at the rear.

"cough--"

Yang Guan fell into the rain curtain in the rear courtyard and let out a muffled cough. He didn't even have time to look ahead and rolled sideways with all his strength.

As he expected, the next moment, a knife struck the spot where he landed, more than three points into the stone.

"You guys..."

Yang Guan rolled up and stood up, with an angry look on his face and held up 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 fierceness in his eyes, just a look of anger. With the usual indifference.

Yang Guan was horrified. He didn't see anything else, except that this kid must have killed someone before.

He held the knife in both hands and shouted angrily. He seemed to want to charge forward, but instead 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:

"Whoever comes here is fucking dead..."

clang--

As soon as the words came out, a biting cold wind came from behind.

Yang Guan's skills were really good. He struck out with his backhand and accurately blocked the incoming blade. However, his body could not withstand the huge force and he was knocked 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..."

A heartbreaking cry came from the elegant courtyard under the drizzle of rain.

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 distorted, but he was not angry at all. He just stared at the knife in front of him:

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding. I was blinded by lard, and I didn't know that Young Hero was also a member of the Pei family. This is the capital, and it's hard to explain people's lives. Young Hero, don't be impulsive..."

"I heard that you are the apprentice of the 'Three Ultimate Immortals', 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 have not been able to truly teach it, making 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, inserted directly into the right arm and nailed into the 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. Farewell."

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 easy..."

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 the 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 the noise reappeared in the yard:

"Gang leader? Gang leader, are you okay? How dare this big fanatic... go and report to the official..."

"Go away! You are a bunch of trash... and you still report to the official..."
