Chapter 1373

The tide of Qiantang River is mighty, pouring into the sea from the mouth of Yanguan Town, accompanied by a rumbling sound, which vibrates for several miles. It was in August, when wubai Ye Zhenghong was near xianiujia village in Lin'an Prefecture. The afterwave of the spring tide was still there, but it was far less powerful than the Haining tide nearby.

Although Lin'an was not the capital of the Song Dynasty, it was also chosen as the place where the emperor traveled because it was adjacent to Shanghai and widely connected at home and abroad.

Since the year of Jingkang, the emperor of the great Song Dynasty has always lived here. Instead, it is the palace of the capital of Bianliang state. It is rarely used except the first month of the great dynasty every year.

Since the opening of the sea in the great Song Dynasty in the year of Yuan Fu, the status of overseas colonies has become prominent. Shanghai port is superior, gradually catching up with Quanzhou and Guangzhou and becoming the largest port in the great song dynasty. The railways from Shanghai and Lin'an to Bianliang have also become the transportation artery like the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal. The government trains shuttle back and forth. Niujiacun station is a small station in front of Lin'an station.

Lin'an has been expanded for three times. The city is already vast, and the traffic congestion in the city is not as convenient as in the suburbs outside the city. Niujia village is located next to the Qiantang River, but it is not as affected by the tide as Haining Yanguan, so the waterway is also accessible. The railway and waterway meet here and gradually become a north-south freight yard.

Niujia village has therefore become a freight hub in the Song Dynasty.

Although it is called a village, it actually has a floating population of tens of thousands and dozens of freight yards and factories, just like a small town.

As a whistle sounded through the sky, a line of white smoke rolled in the distance. Soon, a deafening sound of rail vibration was heard. The government train began to enter the station. The men sitting on both sides outside the railway station began to stand up and trot to the station. A man in his twenties put a cotton towel on his shoulder and walked slowly to the station.

A strong man stood in the station and glanced at the people.

He looked at people from the corners of his eyes. When there were about dozens of men running, he raised his hand and said, "enough people! This trip is packed with porcelain destined for Fusang Prefecture. It's expensive. If you miss it, you'll smash it! It runs through... From 1000 Wen... It's not a province of 777."

The man in his twenties came up to him, wiped his hands, put the towel on his shoulder and said, "add me!"

The strong man smiled with a gloomy smile: "Ouch! It's my brother Guo, please!"

The big man surnamed Guo stood in the crowd, and the people were used to it. They gathered around him, led by him. They bravely stood behind the big man surnamed Guo, and bargained with the big man with strange strength: "since it's such an expensive thing to move, should the salary rise? Brothers should pay more attention, don't they?"

The crowd roared, "yes!"

"Go up a little! If you're not careful, you'll work in vain in a month! What do my family eat?"

"What's your name?" several other men in the same black clothes stood up, and the first one spit out a cigarette and said, "we are insatiable. Without our Haisha gang... What do you eat? The goods of Niujia village are contracted by our Haisha gang. The wharf and station are all our territory. It's mercy for you to come and beg for food."

"If you don't do it, some people do it!" the thug pointed at the man behind Guo Dahan.

The Thug's fingers were as black as iron. He raised his hands and pinched his fingers into claws and landed on the crate beside him. As soon as he pinched three fingers... He pulled out two nails from the superior crate nailed by Nanyang hardwood, and then pressed the nails back with pure finger force in full view of the public.

"Lao Tzu's iron sand eagle claw for ten years earned his position today."

"If you envy me that I can eat and drink for nothing and draw your water every day, then practice hundreds of martial arts diligently. If you can practice jiuniu erhu skill to the level of my eagle claw hand, the Haisha gang will be empty. If you go in, you will be the leader of ten people. It's better than earning a hundred times more hard money here every day?"

Then the thug looked at the silent man surnamed Guo and knew the meaning without asking.

Everyone also looked at their Brother Guo. It would be good if Brother Guo joined the Haisha gang. They also had a backer in the gang controlling local freight.

But the big man surnamed Guo still didn't say a word, as if he hadn't heard it.

The Yin dove laughed and said in two voices, "it seems that Brother Guo doesn't like our Haisha Gang! But we still give Brother Guo a face. If the salary is increased by half this time, we should give Brother Guo the child in the woman's belly to mend his body!"

This implied threat was still unheard of in the ears of the big man surnamed Guo. He just changed the towel for his right shoulder and said, "work!"

A group of porters responded and dispersed in droves, heading for different carriages in groups. They soon carried large and small boxes and transported them.

The thug who practiced Eagle Claw skill looked at Guo Dahan's back, spit on the ground and whispered, "I don't know what's good or bad! I don't have the strength, what!"

He went up to the dove and said, "brother, Guo Xiaotian doesn't know good or bad. How can you give him face back? Even if you don't raise money today, what can those poor people do?"

"They're just making noise. The waterways and railways in Niujia village are all the territory of our Haisha gang. Why let outsiders take advantage of them? Save two, and we'll have our brother's wine money at night?"

"Jiuniu erhu skill is unusual. It is one of the 100 martial arts recorded in the martial arts classic of the great song dynasty revised by the forbidden martial arts hall in the past years."

"Hundreds of martial arts have a great reputation, but they will increase their strength when they practice. My iron sand Eagle Claw skill is not as powerful!" the thug leader proudly used several capture techniques, but he is also skilled. He can break the air from time to time. He looks quite powerful.

His eldest brother scolded, "you know a fart!"

"A hundred martial arts are easy to learn but difficult to master. Ordinary people will gain strength and exercise their muscles and bones after practicing. Jiuniu erhu skill is created specifically for carrying, carrying, Lifu and Lishi. It is a horizontal martial arts from the inside out. This martial arts comes from the forbidden martial arts hall, which is the highest martial arts in the Song Dynasty. Even if it is a popular commodity in the world, it is not comparable to the iron sand Eagle Claw function of your three legged cat."

"It can be regarded as the authentic martial arts of Xuanmen. When you practice it to a high level, you can practice your muscles and bones horizontally. You are really like an iron man. You can fight day and night without exhaustion. It is widely spread in the army. Besides, what is the most powerful martial Arts of Xuanmen, do you know?"

The eagle claw man couldn't touch his head and said, "what is it?"

"You know everything..." the big man sneered, "you iron sand Eagle Claw skill. If people practice it, they can withstand your ten years of hard work in three months. Any external Kung Fu can be quickly completed in his hands. If Guo Xiaotian is willing to join the gang, he will be above you and me in three months... It's a pity that he doesn't appreciate it." as he said, a fierce look appeared on the big man's face.

The thug man saw the big brother's eyes and whispered, "brother wants to..." he made a horizontal splitting gesture with his hand.

"That's why I gave him a face. This time, I just paralyzed him. He repeatedly refused the solicitation of our Haisha gang. He has been impatient for a long time. Today is his last chance... He is not weak. He is mixed with those poor people and has a growing reputation. He is also worried that he will win people's hearts and develop a great danger."

"You mean he refused our solicitation because he wanted to open his own door?"

"If he really attracts a large number of porters, he may really be able to create a small Gang."

"Confused!" the big man sneered, "if he wants to be independent, how can he not have a good relationship with our Haisha Gang? If there is no leader or elder nodding, what will he take to our territory to eat? It's worried that this man will be influenced by Fusang state and set up a trade union in our territory!"

"So, you can't stay!"

"Several good players have been lined up in the gang. I'll send his family on the road tonight!"

After Guo Xiaotian finished his work, he went straight to a small hotel at the head of the village. The shop was opened next to the railway station and not far from Guo Xiaotian's house. After Niujia village was connected to the railway, more and more foreign people lived on the railway. Therefore, a village was gradually formed outside the original Niujia village. There was no pastoral scenery here, but the place was limited, The houses built are crowded and messy.

Naqu's hotel opened at the head of this miscellaneous village.

The owner of the hotel is a lame man on crutches. He sells some turbid wine and brine into the water to give tooth sacrifices to the porters. However, the lame Qu San has a strange temper and will lose his temper when there are many guests.

Guo Xiaotian sat down at a dinner table and asked Qu San to scald two pots of yellow rice wine and put two plates of brine into the water. One plate of broad beans, one plate of salted peanuts and one plate of dried tofu came out. Soon another big man with white skin came up and looked at Guo Xiaotian and said with a smile: "My brother came early... I wanted to play some game, but I didn't expect that after the train passed, the wild animals in all the villages were scared away. There were fewer fish in the Qiantang River than in previous years."

After saying this, he poured Guo Xiaotian wine and another cup for himself, and said: "When I was a child, I only had a mechanism fire boat. Now I have a mechanism train. It is said that there are countless overseas products. All the heroes in the Jianghu run to Fusang Prefecture in Nanyang. The noise in Jiangnan is not as quiet as that in Shandong. Originally, I said to follow my brother to sea, but I got into the debt of your sister-in-law in Jiangnan. Brother, you left me in Niujia village with me. My hometown can't go back. It's August 15, so I came out in pain Lead a way to relieve homesickness! "

Guo Xiaotian said, "brother Yang, what do your brothers say?"

"You weren't the only one who provoked that disaster."

Yang Tiexin said with a bitter smile: "It's not the Jingkang change. The emperor Daojun wants to live forever. He wants to be an immortal and search the world. He wants to find the elixir tradition left by the immortal of the forbidden martial arts hall. Tong Guan is also an accomplice. He obeys Tong Guan's temptation and sets up the East Hall and the West Hall. The forbidden martial arts hall is also controlled by Tong Guan. The two factories are one to collect the world's treasures, martial arts and the immortal for him Human remains. "

"In the end, it provoked anger and resentment. Fusang Prefecture was forced to rebel, and the people all over the world have been suffering from tyranny for a long time!"

"Finally, the prime ministers of the political affairs hall advised the forbidden army in Beijing to act as a constitutional virtual monarch. The Jingkang change shook Bianliang and confused the monarch. He relied on two factories and one hall and adhered to the imperial palace. At that time, the idea of constitutional republic in the world was not popular and the forbidden army was full of doubts. The political affairs hall took into account the world's material discussions and failed to be decisive. Although there were yellow clothes, Luneng and other old commanders of the forbidden martial arts hall to help, how..."

Guo Xiaotian was also worried: "Tong Guan is an invincible thief in the world!"

"Tong Guan killed the reformers, suppressed the mutiny of the forbidden army, and assassinated the prime ministers of the political affairs hall. He almost killed the reformers. He called the Eighth Route Army to Beijing. They were all foreign barbarians. In those years, zhe Zong ordered him to wipe out the four barbarians, but let him take advantage of the opportunity to subdue many barbarians. Wan Yan, the female straight man who made great contributions in the war to destroy Liao, the Liang family of the Xixia army, the Xiao family and the Duan family of Dali, The Japanese Genji, Koryo Li, Annan Chen, and the old general of the forbidden army Shatuo, known as the eight banners of gold, wood, earth, fire, water, wind, thunder and mountains, entered Beijing to suppress the reform. "

"Fortunately, the soldiers of the eight banners were cruel. Even if they came to Beijing according to the will of the faint king, there were many acts of burning, killing and abuse along the way, which eventually angered the world and turned to support the reform. In Bianliang, Wang Chongyang joined hands with several reformers to protect the political affairs hall and resist the peerless power of Tong Guan. In addition, Yue Peng swept thousands of troops with a magic gun, defeated the eight banners and raised the power of the great Song Dynasty and the four different races."

"Finally, the reform was successful. Xu Jun was in the Republic. Emperor Daojun lived in seclusion in the deep palace. Unfortunately, Tong Guan's thief's martial arts were like heaven and man. Even if the general trend was in the hands of the reform patriots, he eventually forced the political affairs hall to make concessions with invincible martial arts, making the reform incomplete."

"Now the emperor has a virtual position in Lin'an, and the prime minister's power is real, but he can still control two factories and one hall. With the help of the eunuchs and eunuchs in the interior, there are eight banners as claws and teeth outside. If it weren't for Fusang and the full support of many other provincial colonies in Nanyang, the political affairs hall would have been unstable."

"Eunuchs harm the country!" Yang Tiexin sighed and drank a mouthful of muggy wine.

"Hua Shigang, the relics of the immortal, the elixir of immortality, and the rumored Prajna morality. If you get one, you will be invincible. If you get the two, you will break the void and raise your body immortal." Guo Xiaotian also shook his head and said: "such absurd rumors, the emperor Daojun is convinced, and it has harmed the country. Do you think the governor of the forbidden martial arts hall has really become an immortal?"

"I don't know whether he will become an immortal or not. I only know that what he left behind is really endless disaster. Immortal Chongyang was originally a national Savior, but he also believed this set and became a monk to refine the golden elixir of limitless longevity..."

"And Qin Hui, as the Prime Minister of the political affairs hall, did not hesitate to go against the trend in order to compete for power and profit. With the help of the power of the two factories and one hall, he almost destroyed the reform achievements. Fortunately, Han Xiangqing swept away the rest of his party, the world gradually became stable, and the two factories and one hall were unable to come out for trouble."

"That's because the emperor is still dreaming of immortality!" Yang Tiexin sneered: "those eunuchs have gone to collect the relics of the immortals. They are good at collecting money, killing and monitoring them. But do you want those eunuchs to govern the world?"

The three just talked about Jingkang's Old Affairs and reform changes. The cripple brought a plate of broad beans and a plate of peanuts. After listening to the three of them scold happily, he suddenly gave two sneers. Yang Tiexin said, "Qu San, what's the matter? Is it because you are loyal to the king and can't see us say some rampant words?" the lame Qu San said, "well scolded. I just feel happy when you scold the dog emperor."

"It's just that you say that the rumors about the relics of the immortal and the Prajna of morality are absurd, but they are not true."

"The governor of the forbidden martial arts hall... Really broke the void and left! Among the relics he left behind, there is indeed a medicine for longevity, called 'Changsheng Blood Orchid', which is filled in a glass bottle. The liquid is as red as blood. Immortal Chongyang obtained it in the past years and refined it into a limitless gold pill in ten years. He also provoked four experts with excellent martial arts in the world to go to Quanzhen sect to seize the pill."

"In the end, it has achieved the reputation of Chongyang immortal in the world!"

"In the past, Tong Guan wanted to seize the golden elixir, but he could only return from Zhongnan Mountain empty handed. Some people say that immortal Chongyang is no worse than Tong Guan, but there are few witnesses of this incident, so it's just a Jianghu rumor."

"I have many guests here. I've heard of two ears!"

Yang Tiexin and Guo Xiaotian looked at each other. There were some unclear meanings in their expressions.

After returning home, Yang tiexing took the brine and followed Guo Xiaotian back to the door of Guo's house. Li Ping, Guo Xiaotian's whole family, was driving the chicken into the cage. Seeing this, she said with a smile: "my brothers and sisters are full of wine again. Uncle Yang, come to my house with your sister-in-law for dinner. Let's kill a chicken." Yang Tiexin said with a smile: "Well, I'll disturb my sister-in-law again tonight. The one in my family eats a lot, and the chickens she keeps are not enough for her."

Li Ping said, "my sister-in-law is heroic, unlike the daughter of an ordinary family!"

Guo Xiaotian took Yang Tiexin into the inner room and said, "brother, you asked me to test Qu San this time. He is really an unusual person. Is it our brothers?"

"It doesn't look like people from the East West factory. Guo Xiandi, our two families fled here from Shandong to avoid disaster and go overseas, but I met the magic star of my life, missed the trip, and implicated my brother and sister-in-law. Tonight I'll test the song. If something is wrong, let's go to sea all night, go to the senior staff first, and then transfer to fusangzhou!"

"It's just that my sister-in-law is pregnant... She has to work hard on the road!"

Guo Xiaotian said, "she's in good health. It doesn't matter."

"I'll go with my eldest brother tonight, and I'll take care of him."

Yang Tiexin thought for a while and said, "that's OK. I'll let Bao xiweak come over tonight to protect his siblings from accidents." at midnight that night, they put on their night clothes and touched the entrance of the village.
