Chapter 15 The Fifteenth Chapter True and False Leaders
Shi Potian and Ding Dang followed the Kanto heroes far away, and when they drove for more than ten li, they saw a big dark pine forest ahead.Fan Yifei said in a loud voice: "Which way are good friends invited? Guandong Wanmazhuang, Kuaidaomen, Qinglongmen, and Hebimen are here to worship the mountains." Ding Dang said: "Let's hide in the grass and have a look. See if it's Grandpa." The two dismounted from their horses, bent over and approached, and leaned behind a big rock.
When Fan Yifei heard the sound of horseshoes, he knew that the two of them were coming, so he didn't go to greet him, but just stared at the pine forest.The four masters stood in front, and more than a dozen disciples stood in a row behind the four of them.There was no sound in the pine forest.The last quarter moon is not very bright, reflecting the pine forests all over the field, making people's faces green.
After a long time, a whistle was heard in the forest, and a line of black-clothed men rushed out from the left and right.There are fifty or sixty people in each line, and more than a hundred people circled far behind the Kwan Hos, and then turned around, surrounded the Kwan Hos, Shi and Ding, stood still, put their hands on their weapons, and said loudly. not out.Then came out of the pine forest ten more men in black, lined up.Shi Potian sighed softly, these ten people were actually the head and deputy incense masters of each hall in the Changle Clan, Mi Hengye, Chen Chongzhi, Zhan Fei and others arrived together.As soon as the ten people stood still, one person slowly walked out from the forest, it was Bei Haishi who was "starting to make spring".He coughed a few times, and said: "The heads of the four major sects in the Kanto region are in vain, and my brother...cough cough... I am very honored, and I am here to welcome you. Cough...It's just that everyone couldn't come soon, so I called my brother... Together, we waited very anxiously."
Fan Yifei heard him coughing repeatedly while speaking, so he knew that it was Bei Haishi, who was very famous in the martial arts, and thought that the other party was the rightful master he came to look for this time, although seeing the great momentum of the Changle Gang, he let go , thinking: "Since it is the Changle Gang, so life and death, honor and disgrace, this battle will avoid entanglement with Ding Busi and others who have nothing to do with it." Thinking of Ding Busi, he couldn't help shivering, and clasped his fists He said: "It turns out that Mr. Bei came from a long way to meet him, why should he accept it? He is Fan Yifei of Xiahebimen." Then he was introduced to Lu Zhengping, Feng Liang, and Mrs. Gao San.
Seeing them meeting each other politely, Shi Potian thought: "They didn't come to fight." He whispered: "They are our own people, let's go out and meet each other." Ding Dang took his arm and whispered in his ear : "Wait a minute, wait a while."
I only heard Fan Yifei say: "We agreed to come to your clan to pay homage to the mountain. Unexpectedly, we encountered some delays on the way. It was too late. Please also invite Mr. Bei and all the incense masters Haihan." Bei Haishi said: "It's easy to say, easy to say. But we Gang Master Shi has been waiting for a few days, but he didn't see you coming, so he just said that everyone has given up on the appointment. Gang Master Shi has other important matters, so he didn't wait any longer."
Fan Yifei was stunned, and said, "I don't know where Shi Yingxiong is? To be honest, Mr. Bei said that we came all the way to the Central Plains, hoping to have the honor to meet Shi Yingxiong from your gang. If we don't meet Shi Yingxiong, then...then ...It really disappointed us." Bei Haishi held his mouth and coughed a few times, but didn't answer.
Fan Yifei continued: "We brought some Kanto local products, a few pieces of mink fur, and a few catties of ginseng, and presented them to Shi Yingying, Mr. Bei, and all the incense masters. A small gift is not a respect, it's just a gift of goose feathers from thousands of miles away. Please accept it with a smile." With a wave of his left hand, three disciples walked to the side of the horse, untied three packages from the horse, and bowed down to send them to Bei Haishi.
Bei Haishi smiled and said: "This...that's really too polite. Thank you all for giving me such a generous gift, it's really...ahem...it's really disrespectful, I am ashamed to receive it, thank you, thank you!" Mi Hengye and the others sent three The package was picked up.
Fan Yifei unwrapped a small package from his back, put his hands on it, walked up three steps, and said in a loud voice: "When the leader of your gang, Situ, was in Kanto in the past, he was very close to me and these three friends. Meng Situ The leader never gave up, and we have a lifetime of friendship. Here is a ginseng that has been formed for hundreds of years. It is a very rare thing to eat to prolong life. It is a gift for Brother Situ." He said. Holding the package in both hands, he fixed his eyes on Bei Haishi, but did not pass the package over.
Shi Potian was very surprised: "Why is there another leader, Situ?"
He only heard Bei Haishi cough a few times, sighed again, and said, "Brother Situ, the former leader of our gang, cough cough... I encountered an unpleasant incident a few years ago, and I was discouraged and didn't want to deal with it anymore. The help, so the general will hand over the important affairs of the help to the head of the stone. Brother Situ... his old man... ahem... he went to live in seclusion in the mountains, and he has not heard the news for a long time. All the old brothers in the help will remember it closely. This generous gift, everyone, It will not be easy to hand it over to his old man."
Fan Yifei said: "I don't know where Brother Situ lives in seclusion? I don't know why he retired?" His words became stricter, and there was a hint of questioning.
Bei Haishi smiled slightly, and said: "I am just a subordinate of Chief Situ, and I really don't know much about his private affairs. Brother Fan and the others are close friends of Chief Situ, so I just want to ask you, why is it that Changle is a good boss?" At the time of prosperity, Gang Leader Situ suddenly entrusted this burden to Gang Leader Shi?" This time, he turned against the guest, and immediately pushed back Fan Yifei's aggressive words, which made it hard for him to answer.Fan Yifei said, "This... how do we know this?"
Bei Haishi said: "When Chief Situ handed over his important responsibilities, all the brothers knew nothing about the character and martial arts of Chief Shitu. Seeing that he is very young and does not have much reputation in the martial arts world, let him lead the group of heroes, honestly. It is said that everyone is a little bit dissatisfied. But after the leader of the stone gang took over, he made several great achievements for the gang, which greatly benefited the reputation of the gang. Sure enough, the leader of the gang Situ knows heroes with his eyes. Not only is his martial arts superior, but his insight is also extraordinary , cough cough... If not, how could he discuss friendship with all the heroes of Liaodong? Hehe!" The implication is that if you think that the leader of the Situ gang has a wrong vision, then you yourself are not a good character.
Lu Zhengping interrupted suddenly: "Doctor Bei, the information we got in Kanto is not the case, so we came to the Central Plains together to find out."
Bei Haishi said indifferently: "There are rumors spread thousands of miles away. But I don't know what rumors you have heard?"
Lu Zhengping said: "Before the truth comes out, it's hard to say whether this is a rumor or not. We heard from a good friend that Brother Situ is...is..." His eyes suddenly brightened, and he said loudly: "...Yes He was murdered by the traitors of the Changle Gang, and his death was unknown. The position of the leader of the gang fell into the hands of a young prodigal son who was greedy, lustful, cruel, and brutal. This friend's words seemed to be true. We remember the benefits of Brother Situ in the past, although we know that the fame of martial arts is not worthy of meddling in the important affairs of your gang, but we are warm-hearted for friends, it is... it is presumptuous."
Bei Haishi sneered and said, "Brother Lu is right, it's presumptuous."
Lu Zhengping's face became hot, and he said in his heart: "Bei Haishi is very shrewd in the way of humanity, and he really deserves his reputation." He said loudly, "Who do you want to serve as the master, why should outsiders ask? We fellow Kwantung martial artists , I just want to ask you, Brother Situ, is he dead or alive right now? He doesn’t want to be the leader of your gang, is he willing to do it or is he forced by others?"
Bei Haishi said: "Although the surname Bei is ineffective, he has a reputation in the Jianghu. How can he change his words after he has said it? If your Excellency insists that Bei is lying, Bei will lie to the end. Hehe, everyone He is a person with a lot of status and background in the martial arts, and his enthusiasm for being a friend is admirable, but this matter is unreasonable, unreasonable!"
The senior high school lady has always only been hated and flattered by others. She was so taunted by Bei Haishi, she couldn't help being furious, and said sharply: "The one who killed brother Situ, I'm afraid your surname Bei is the mastermind. We came to the Central Plains to give Brother Situ is coming for revenge, and he didn't want to go back alive for a long time. Since you are a man, if you have the courage to do the next thing, you should have the courage to bear it. Tell me straight up, is Brother Situ dead or alive?"
Bei Haishi lazily said: "The surname Bei has been ill for many years, and he is so troubled that he can't die or live. He has long felt that life is not very interesting. If the third-year lady wants to kill, please do it."
The senior high school lady said angrily: "It's a good thing you are a famous martial artist, but you came to play this lazy game for my old lady. If you don't want to say it, well, you go and call that boy surnamed Shi, and my old lady asks him face to face." She thought Bei Haishi is old and cunning, he can't argue with him, even if he uses force, he is afraid of being outnumbered. That gang leader Shi is a young boy, even if he refuses to tell the truth, he can always see some clues from his expression.
Standing beside Bei Haishi, Chen Chongzhi suddenly smiled and said: "To tell you the truth, the senior high school lady, our leader Shi likes girls, that's not bad, it seems that he only likes to see young, beautiful, gentle and gentle girls. Come to see Mrs. Gao San, this...hehe...I'm afraid he...hehe..." The tone of these few words is frivolous, and the implication is to ridicule the old lady of Gao San, who is ugly and fierce, and the leader of Shi Gang has never seen her. appetite.
Ding Dang snickered in the dark, and said in a low voice: "Actually, Sister Gao is pretty, too. You've taken a fancy to her again, don't you?" Pang laughed and said: "She shot me with flying knives, which one do you help?" Before Shi Potian could answer, the third lady in Gao San was furious, and she released three flying knives, and the silver light flashed sharply, and shot at Chen Chongzhi.
Chen Chongzhi dodged one by one, and said with a smile: "What's the use of you looking at me?"
Fan Yifei yelled: "Hold on!" But once the senior high school lady got angry, she couldn't control it, and threw out the throwing knives one after another, the faster and faster she let go.Chen Chongzhi dodged six blows, but he couldn't dodge the seventh one. With a pop, he hit his right leg, and immediately bent his knees and fell to his knees.The senior lady sneered and said, "Kneel down and beg for mercy?" Chen Chongzhi was furious, drew his sword and rushed forward.Feng Liang waved his soft whip to block it.
Seeing that it was a gang fight, Shi Potian suddenly shouted: "Don't fight, don't fight! If you want to see me, haven't you already seen me?" He took Ding Dang's hand and jumped out from behind the boulder , a few ups and downs, already standing in the crowd.
Chen Chongzhi and Feng Liang each leaped backwards.The group of heroes in the Changle Gang cheered thunderously, and they all bowed and said: "See the leader of the gang!"
Fan Yifei and the others were taken aback. Seeing that the expressions of the Changle Gang members were not fake, he thought again: "Grand En called himself surnamed Shi. He is very young and has extremely high martial arts. It is not surprising that he is the leader of the Changle Gang. It is only our fault that he was the leader of the Changle Gang." Unexpectedly. He called himself Shi Zhongyu, but we heard that the leader of the Changle Clan is called Shi Potian. Well, Shi Zhongyu, with big characters, is quite unusual."
The senior high school lady apologized: "Shi...Shi Engong, so you...you are the leader of the Changle Gang, we are really reckless. If we knew this, why would we not believe it?"
Shi Potian smiled slightly, and said to Bei Haishi: "Mr. Bei, I didn't expect to meet you here. This person is my friend. Please don't hurt your temper."
Bei Haishi was overjoyed to see Shi Potian, he had no quarrel with the Kanto heroes, bowed slightly, and said, "It would be best if the guild master came to preside over the game, the guild master decides everything."
The senior high school lady said: "We misunderstood people's words and only thought that Brother Situ was harmed by others, so we made an appointment with the expensive gang, but how did we know that the leader of Shixin's gang is actually Shi Engong. What did you do to brother Situ? It must be that brother Situ saw that Shi Engong's martial arts were better than him, and he was young and promising, so he abdicated to make a worthy man, but he didn't know how good brother Situ was?"
Shi Potian didn't know how to answer, so he turned his head to Bei Haishi and said, "This Situ...Brother Situ..."
Bei Haishi said: "Clan Master Situ is currently living in seclusion in the mountains, and he doesn't see any guests. Otherwise, you are so enthusiastic and came all the way, you should have met him."
Lu Zhengping said: "Your Majesty just said something without words and offended Mr. Bei. I really deserve to die. Thank you here." He bowed deeply, and said: "But Brother Situ has an extraordinary friendship with us. Back then in Liaodong, You can be regarded as life and death friends, we came to the Central Plains, we must meet him, Mr. Wanwang Engong and Mr. Bei pleaded on his behalf. Brother Situ doesn't see outsiders, we are not outsiders." He said, staring at Shi Po sky.
Shi Potian said to Bei Haishi: "Senior Situ, does he live far away? Brother Fan and the others have traveled so many ways to visit him. Wouldn't it be a disappointment if they don't see him? Even I want to see him as an old man. .”
Bei Haishi was very embarrassed, the leader's words were orders, and it was inconvenient to disobey in public, so he could only say: "I can't explain all the relationships in it for a while. Everyone who visits from afar, how can the Changle Gang not show their friendship as a landlord? The leader of our gang It's not far from here, please come to our gang, have a glass of water and wine, and it won't be too late." Shi Potian wondered, "The main rudder is not far from here?" Bei Haishi was slightly surprised, and said: "Northeast of this place, it's only about 70 miles away by taking a shortcut to the main rudder of Zhenjiang." Shi Potian turned his head and looked at Ding Dang.Ding Dang chuckled, covering his mouth with his hand.
Fan Yifei and the others were about to track down the whereabouts of Situ Heng, the leader of the Situ Gang "Quick Horse", and they all said in unison: "When you come to Jiangnan, you must go to the head of your gang to worship the mountain."
The next group of people headed northeastward, and arrived at the head of the Changle Gang in Zhenjiang before noon that day.The gang has its own management staff to receive the Liaodong Qunhao hospitablely.
Shi Potian and Ding Dang walked into the room side by side.Shi Jian couldn't help being both surprised and happy when he saw the guild leader coming back, but seeing him with a beautiful girl, he had seen it a lot, and couldn't help being secretly annoyed: "The body just got wider, and the old problem has reappeared. I told him a little bit earlier. After a serious illness, he changed his temper, hey, he seems to have changed his temper, the sun really came out from the west." Shi Potian washed his face, and just after drinking a cup of tea, he heard Bei Haishi say outside the door: "Shi Jian, please tell the leader, Bei Haishi asks to see you." , Said: "Mr. Bei, I just wanted to ask you, what happened to that Situ gang leader?" Bei Haishi said: "Master, please move." He led him through the garden and came to an octagonal pavilion on the Chrysanthemum Pan Altar. After all these days, can you still not remember the past?" Shi Potian once listened to his parents' careful analysis, saying that the heroes of the Changle Gang wanted him to be the leader with sinister intentions. They wanted him to prevent disasters for the Changle Gang and give him a small life to relieve the danger of the whole gang.But Bei Haishi has always been respectful and courteous to him. He was fighting with cold and heat on the Motian Cliff, but fortunately he rescued him. Afterwards, he fell ill for several days, and he tried his best to diagnose and treat him. Although it was out of selfishness, he always saved his life. At this moment, if he directly questioned him, it would embarrass his face. Besides, he really didn't know anything about the past, so he had to ask clearly, and said, "Exactly, Mr. Bei, please explain it in detail from the beginning to the end." Bei Haishi said: "Situ's former gang leader was named Situ Heng, and he had a nickname called 'Quick Horse'. He used to be at the foot of Changbai Mountain in Liaodong, and he was the gang leader's uncle. Do you remember the gang leader?" Shi Potian wondered: " It's my uncle, I...why don't I remember at all? What sect is that?" Bei Haishi said: "Master Situ never talks about his master's background, and it is inconvenient for us subordinates to ask more. Three years ago, the leader was ordered by Master..." Shi Potian asked: "As ordered by Master, my Master Are you sure?" Bei Haishi shook his head, and said: "The master's illness is really serious, even the master has forgotten. The master's master's lineage, the subordinates don't know, the last time Bai Wanjian of the Xueshan sect insisted that the master He is a disciple of the Xueshan School, and his subordinates are also very suspicious, looking at the number of martial arts families of the leader, it seems that it does not seem to be the same, and the kung fu of the Xueshan School is not as good as that of the leader." Shi Potian said: "My master? I only worshiped Granny Shi of the Golden Crow Sect as my teacher, but that was recently." Stretching out his fingers and tapping his head, he felt that the past events he remembered were always different from what others said Consistent, so troubled, asked: "I am ordered by the master, so what?" Bei Haishi said: "The leader of the gang was ordered by his master to come to seek refuge with the leader of the Situ clan, asking him to support him and make a name for himself in the rivers and lakes. After a while, a major event happened in our gang. , Bronze Medal Invitation to a Banquet. Do you remember this incident, the leader?" Shi Potian said: "I know about the bronze medal that rewards good and punishes evil. How did I discuss it at that time, but there was no trace in my mind. "Bei Haishi said: "This gang once a year, for example, on the third day of March, the whole gang gathers together. The incense masters of the general rudder, and the rudder masters of the sub-rudders from all over the country all come to Zhenjiang to meet and discuss the important affairs of the gang. The big gathering three years ago In the middle, there is a He Xiangzhu who suddenly mentioned that the gang has been thriving in recent years, and in three years, the bronze medal in the invitation banquet will reappear in the Jianghu. That's good, lest things come to an end and you panic." Shi Potian nodded and said: "Yes, once the bronze medal for rewarding good and punishing evil arrives, if the gang leader does not accept the medal and agree to eat Laba porridge, the whole gang will be slaughtered. I have seen that with my own eyes." Bei Haishi's heart trembled, and he wondered, "Has the leader seen it with his own eyes?" Shi Potian said, "Actually, I am not your leader, but I have seen this incident. It is the Flying Fish Gang and Tiecha Society. Both gangs were completely killed." He said in his heart, "Oh! Eldest brother and second elder brother are too tricky." The Flying Fish Gang and Tie Chahui were massacred by the whole gang because they didn't receive the bronze medal, and it has been widely known in the martial arts world.Bei Haishi sighed, and said: "We have expected this day, so that Lord He Xiang brought up this matter back then, it really can't be said to be unfounded, can it? But when Master Situ heard this, he immediately became angry He was furious, saying that He Xiangzhu was instigating people's hearts and plotting wrongdoing, and immediately ordered him to be detained. Everyone begged for mercy, Situ Gangzhu agreed, but quietly killed him in the middle of the night, and said that He Xiangzhu committed suicide in fear of crime the next day. " Shi Potian said: "Then why? Presumably the leader Situ had a grudge against this Lord He Xiang, so he found a reason to kill him." Bei Haishi shook his head and said, "That's not true, the real reason is that the leader Situ doesn't want others Mention this matter." Shi Potian nodded.He is very intelligent in nature, but he has never seen people face to face, so he doesn't know anything about the world. Recently, he spent many days with Shi Qing, his wife and Ding Dang, and he was able to figure out the thoughts of others. That is to be buried on the island, never to return; but if he does not receive the bronze medal, he will have to die with his whole gang of brothers and sisters. He has probably been thinking about this matter day and night, and has been thinking about it for several years. But I don’t want others to openly bring up this problem.” Bei Haishi continued: "Naturally, all the brothers know that He Xiangzhu was killed by him. It doesn't matter if he kills He Xiangzhu, but it is conceivable from this that when the bronze medal for the banquet comes, he will definitely not accept it, and he will never be generous. , in exchange for the safety of the whole gang. At that time, all the brothers had their own concerns and kept silent. At that time, you, the gang leader, stepped forward and questioned the uncle." Shi Potian was very surprised, and said: "I stepped forward and questioned... questioned him?" Bei Haishi said: "Yes! At that time, the leader of the gang, you spoke eloquently and said: 'Uncle, since you are the leader of the gang, you should think deeply and make a long-term plan for the gang. Not far away. Master He Xiang brought this matter up for the sake of all the brothers in the gang. Uncle, you force him to kill him on the island, lest the brothers will not accept it." Situ's gang leader immediately changed his face and scolded, saying: "Bold boy, this Changle Among the rudders of the gang, how can you speak? Changle was created by myself, even if it is destroyed by myself, it will not be able to stand up to other people's gossip.' These words of the leader of the gang made all the brothers feel even more chilling But you said, "Uncle, if you accept the card, you will die, and if you don't accept the card, you will die. What's the difference? If you don't accept the card, it will only cost the lives of many loyal and courageous brothers." That's all, what good is it to you? It's better to accept the cards generously and tell the whole gang to always remember your kindness.'" Shi Potian nodded and said: "That's not bad, but...but...Mr. Bei, I'm not so eloquent, I'm not capable of speaking so clearly." The fact that the leader of the gang has just been seriously ill has not fully recovered his brain power. When he recovers in the future, his eloquence will not be hindered, not to mention that no one in this gang can match, even in the Jianghu, who can match you?" Shi Potian doubted, said: "Really? I... After I said this, so what?" Bei Haishi said: "The head of the Situ gang turned blue immediately, slapped the table and cursed, and shouted: 'Quick...quickly tie up this up and down kid for me!' But he kept drinking several times, you see Look at me, I look at you, but no one moved. Master Situ was even more annoyed, and shouted: "Rebellion, rebellion! You are all colluding with this kid to rebel against me, right? Well, you don't Do it, I will kill this kid myself!'” Shi Potian said: "Brothers, have you persuaded him?" Bei Haishi said: "All the brothers were dissatisfied in their hearts, but none of them made a sound. Leader Situ immediately pulled out the scimitar from the scabbard, left his seat, and slashed at you, leader. You swayed and dodged immediately. Master Situ even tried to kill you, but you avoided them one by one, and you never fought back. You are empty-handed, and Master Situ's scimitar is also unique in martial arts. It is known as the "Quick Horse Sword" in Liaodong. It is very rare to be able to avoid seven or eight tricks. At that time, Master Mi Xiang called out: Master, your nephew told you not to fight back after eight moves. First, I respect you as the master of the gang. Assassin, everyone in the world will send you." Situ yelled angrily: "Who told him not to fight back? Anyway, you have already favored him, everyone worked together to kill me, and this kid is the leader of the gang. , will not the wish of the people be fulfilled?' "He scolded furiously at the door, and his hands didn't stop at all. In an instant, you were in danger, and saw that you were about to die under his machete. Master Mi Xiang shouted: "Brother Shi, take the sword!" Throw it over to you. You stretch out your hand to copy it, and gave up three more moves, saying: "Master, I have already given up twenty moves. If you don't do it again, I have no choice but to offend you." Situ's gang leader showed a fierce look, Swing your scimitar and chop it at the top of your head. At that time, more than 20 people in the meeting hall shouted in unison: "Fight back, fight back, don't let him hurt you!" You said: "Offended!" Then you raised your sword to block his bend Knife. "When the two of you started fighting, the fight was very fierce. After a cup of tea, everyone could see that you didn't try your best and let him go, but he still fought fiercely. Finally, you made it This move is like the move of "pushing the boat with the water". The point of the sword pierced his right wrist, and he fell to the ground with the scimitar. You immediately retract the sword and take three steps away. The head of the Situ clan stood there in a daze, his face was completely pale, and his eyes followed the eyes of the brothers. Faces were swept across one by one. At this time, there was no sound in the meeting room, only the blood from the wound on his wrist fell drop by drop on the ground, making a very slight click sound. After a long while, he said tragically: "Okay, okay, okay!" He strode out. More than forty people in the hall watched him go out, but no one made a sound. "Situ Clan Leader left like this, Huai knew that he would never see him again. When he came back, the clan could not be without a leader, and everyone pushed you to inherit. At that time, you said with emotion: "The boy has no virtue and incompetence. Originally, he was determined not to take on this important task, but In another three years, the bronze medal of good and evil will reappear in the Jianghu, and the kid will temporarily occupy this position. If the bronze medal for the banquet is sent to the wood gang, the kid will be able to receive it, and it will be a disaster for everyone." Brothers As soon as they heard it, they cheered in unison, and immediately bowed down. To tell you the truth, you fought against Situ with great strength. Everyone has seen your martial arts. In fact, even if your martial arts are mediocre, as long as you promise to prevent disasters for the gang, Out of selfishness, everyone will embrace you as master." Shi Potian nodded and said: "So I went out several times, and you all seemed to be in a hurry, lest I never come back." Bei Haishi blushed slightly, and said: "After the Clan Leader took office, everyone has no objection to many measures. I don't care anymore." Shi Potian pondered and said: "Mr. Bei, I can't remember the past, please don't hide it, what kind of big mistake did I make?" Not necessarily. The gang leader Fang was young and suave, but it is not a problem. Fortunately, most of these women are out of their own wishes, and the forced things are not too many. The reputation of the Changle Gang is not very good. The brothers heard that The news is nothing more than a laugh.” Shi Potian could only hear sweat dripping from his forehead, Bei Haishi said these words lightly, but obviously he must have committed a lot of romantic crimes in the past few years.However, he thought hard, and besides Ding Dang alone, he could not remember any other women he had had ambiguous affairs with. Suddenly, a thought came to his mind: "If Axiu listens At this point, just look at me, and I'll... I'll..." Bei Haishi said: "Master, I have a sentence that I don't know how to advance or retreat. I don't know if I should say it or not?" It is unavoidable for our Changle Gang to do some shady business, otherwise, where would the whole 20,000-odd brothers get food and clothes? We are not heroes on the white road, and we don’t need to abide by their benevolence and righteousness Moral rules. It’s just that the wives and daughters of the brothers in the gang, according to the opinions of the subordinates, the leader of the gang still... it’s better to ignore them, so as not to hurt the harmony between the brothers.” Shi Potian blushed immediately, feeling ashamed, remembering that night Lord Zhanxiang came to assassinate him, saying that he had robbed his wife, if it happened, what should he do? Bei Haishi said again: "Mr. Ding Busan's behavior is weird, and his martial arts are extremely high. The leader is in contact with his granddaughter and will abandon her in the future. I'm afraid Mr. Ding won't give up. Even the leader will not be afraid of him. , but always make an extra strong enemy..." Shi Potian stepped in and said, "How could I abandon Miss Ding?" I don't have much interest in these girls. This girl Ding, it's nothing if the boss really wants to befriend her, but it seems that there is no need for marriage or something, so as not to fall into the trap of Laoer Ding." Shi Potian said: "But ...But I have already married her." Bei Haishi said: "At that time, the leader was still seriously ill, most likely he was at the mercy of Old Ding while he was ill, so it can't be accurate." Shi Po Tian frowned, unable to answer for a moment. Bei Haishi thought that enough should be enough to talk about this, so he changed the topic and said: "The four sects of the east of the Kanto came to you aggressively, and when they saw the leader, they softened immediately. Yes, it shows the mighty virtue of the leader. The martial arts of the leader has grown so fast, which is gratifying, but I don’t know why?” How Shi Potian managed to retreat and save the lives of the senior high school lady and others, the Kanto Qunhao had already added fuel to the matter on the way. Talk to Changle to help everyone know.Disaster Haishi never expected that Shi Potian's martial arts would be so powerful, he wanted to ask why, but Shi Potian himself was also puzzled and couldn't explain why. But Bei Haishi thought that he was unwilling to talk about it, so he said: "These people are quite famous in the martial arts. Since the leader is kind to them, he can take the opportunity to win over them and use them for the gang. If they ask Situ Regarding the matter of the former gang leader, the gang leader only needs to say that the former gang leader Situ has retired, but he does not need to tell them what his subordinates said just now, so as not to cause another incident and cause another dispute, which is of no benefit to everyone." Shi Potian nodded and said: " Mr Bay is right." The two gossiped for a while, and Bei Haishi took out a list from his bosom, reporting which managers had been replaced by various sub-rudders in the past few months, how much silver and rice were sent by what cottage, and how much money was collected at what wharf. monthly rules.Shi Potian didn't know why, so he just responded, but according to Bei Haishi's words, some of the actions of the Changle Gang were exactly what his parents said in the past few days. , Food and livestock, it is clear that they are sitting on the ground to share the spoils; if there is any local gang cottage that does not obey orders, the Changle gang will pick it up and destroy it.He felt something was wrong, but he didn't know how to tell Bei Haishi.
That night, the chief rudder held a grand feast for the heroes of the Kanto region, Shi Potian, Bei Haishi, and Ding Dang were accompanied by the next prime minister. After drinking for three rounds, everyone said some polite words.Fan Yifei said: "Great benefactor, the Changle Gang is so prosperous after tidying up, Brother Situ must be very happy." Bei Haishi said: "Senior Situ is fishing and planting flowers at the moment, and he doesn't see anyone, so he can live leisurely and comfortably. He uses it in the old man's house. , our gang will send it from Feng every month, and we will give him whatever he wants." Fan Yifei was about to make excuses to inquire again, when he suddenly saw the assistant incense master of Humeng Hall hurried to Bei Haishi's side and whispered something in his ear. Bei Haishi nodded with a smile, and said: "Very good, very good." Turning his head to Shi Potian, he said with a smile: "So that the leader of the sect can know that after the disciples from Xueshan School were captured by us, Lingxiao City has sent them again these days. The backup is intended to save people. Who knows that stealing chickens won’t cost you money, and we caught two more just now.” Shi Potian was slightly startled, and said: "Have you captured all the disciples of the Xueshan Sect?" Bei Haishi smiled and said, "The last time the leader and Bai Wanjian left the main helm together, the brothers are very worried, I'm afraid the leader is loyal. Treat people like that guy..." He couldn't directly say that Shi Potian was captured by Bai Wanjian in front of the heroes of the Guandong, so he kept his words vague and said: "Let's all go out, Inquiring about the whereabouts of the sect leader, he bumped into a group of Snow Mountain disciples near Dangtu, and with a little trickery, they were all captured and imprisoned at the main rudder, but it was a pity that Bai Wanjian was so alert that he left alone. " Ding Dang suddenly interjected and asked, "Where's that girl Hua Wanzihua?" Bei Haishi smiled and said, "That was the first batch to be caught at the main rudder. Miss Ding was also there at the time, wasn't she? We caught them all that time." Seven." Fan Yifei and the others were horrified, thinking: "The Snow Mountain School is so famous, but with the help of Changle, it was unexpectedly defeated like this." Bei Haishi continued: "We asked the disciples of the Xueshan faction about the whereabouts of the leader, and everyone said that the leader left at the Earth Temple that night and never saw him again. Everyone was relieved when they learned that the leader was safe. Disciples of the Xueshan School can be killed or shut down, but they are punished by the leader of the sect." Shi Potian pondered: "Father and mother said that I did study under the Xueshan School before, and these Xueshan School disciples are my uncles, how can I keep them locked up? Of course they must not be killed." : "There is some misunderstanding between us and the Xueshan faction, or... Hua..." He wanted to say an idiom, but he just learned it, so he couldn't remember it for a while. Bei Haishi said, "Turn an enemy into a friend." Shi Potian said: "Yeah, let's turn enemies into friends! Mr. Bei, I want to let them go and invite them to drink together, okay?" He didn't know if there was such a rule in the martial arts, so he asked and thought again. It took Bei Haishi and the others a lot of effort to get the Xueshan group of disciples, and they let them go with a single word, which is unavoidable.Although others respect him as the leader of the gang, he himself does not realize that everyone in the gang must follow his orders.Bei Haishi smiled and said: "The leader is so magnanimous, it is a beautiful thing in the martial arts." He ordered: "Bring those people from the Xueshan Sect." The incense master agreed to go on, and soon four gang members escorted two white-clothed men to come up.Both of those two had their hands tied behind their backs, and their jerseys were stained with a lot of blood, obviously after a fight, both of them were injured.The incense master shouted: "Go up and see the gang leader." The older middle-aged man glared at him, and another strong man in his thirties yelled, "You're so quick, kill me with a knife! You evil thieves and robbers will be full of evil one day. Wait for my master Wade to kill you!" Mister has come and will cut you into pieces one by one to avenge me." Suddenly I heard a thunderstorm outside the window and shouted: "Young brother Shi scolded you so heartily, you are a dog and a robber, you are a vile bastard." All the disciples put on shackles and handcuffs, and walked out of the hall boldly.Geng Wanzhong, Huyan Wanshan, Wang Wanren, Ke Wanjun, Hua Wanzi, etc. were among them, and even Wang Wanyi, who was very good at lightness kung fu, was caught this time.As soon as Wang Wanren came in, he cursed "dog robber, bastard" endlessly, and some said: "If you have the ability, you can do it with real swords and guns, and make it smell like medicine. That's the work of a low-grade thief. " Fan Yifei, Feng Liang and the others looked at each other, thinking: "If they are caught by the scented and sweaty medicine, then there will be no glory." With a glance, Bei Haishi knew what the Kwantung heroes wanted, so he immediately got up from his seat, and said with a smile, "In the battle of Dangtu, we did use Mongolian sweat medicine. It's not that we were afraid of everyone's martial arts skills, it's just that Gu Nianshi's leader and Your teachers have some connections in the past, and you don’t want to hurt you with a knife or a gun, and you are out of harmony. You are obviously dissatisfied in your heart when you say this. If we can handle the ten tricks, how about our Changle gang being a lowly gangster?" That day in the Changle Clan's chief helm battle, Bei Haishi performed five elements and six combined palms, Ke Wanjun and the others couldn't do two or three moves before being knocked down by him. If it is said that he wants to catch him with ten moves, it is really difficult to do.Shi Wannian, the newly captured Xueshan disciple, didn't know that he was so good at martial arts. Seeing that he was yellow and haggard, as thin as a stick, and looked like a sick man, why should he be afraid of him?Immediately shouted loudly: "Your Changle Gang only relies on the number to win, what's so great about it? Don't talk about ten tricks, I have accepted your hundred tricks." Bei Haishi smiled and said: "Very good, very good! This brother is really very courageous. Let's make a bet like this: You can accept my tricks, and the Changle Gang is a vicious dog robber; if your brother If you lose within ten moves, the Xueshan faction will be a gangster dog, okay?" As he spoke, he moved closer to him, and with a flick of his right hand, a finger-thin hemp rope tied around Shi Wannian's body came out in response. Duan, said with a smile: "Please!" After Shi Wannian was tied up, I don't know how many times I have struggled, knowing that the hemp ropes on my body are very tough, but who knew that the sick man flicked them so casually, and the hemp ropes that he couldn't stop struggling were like vermicelli noodles.In an instant, his complexion changed drastically, and his body trembled involuntarily. How dare he fight Bei Haishi? Suddenly someone outside the hall said loudly: "Very good, very good! Let's make a bet!" As soon as everyone heard this voice, Xueshan's disciple's face brightened immediately, and everyone in Changle Gang was startled, even Bei Haishi was also shocked. Slightly discolored. The hall door was pushed open with a slam, and someone walked in with great strides, majestic and heroic, it was "Qi Han Northwest" Bai Wanjian.He clasped his fists together and said, "If you're not talented, try to catch Mr. Bei's ten tricks." Bei Haishi smiled slightly, although his expression was still calm, his heart was already very embarrassed. In terms of Bai Wanjian's martial arts, although he could defeat him, he had to be within a hundred moves, within ten moves Winning is absolutely impossible.He changed his mind, then smiled and said: "A bet of ten tricks can only deceive Hero Bai's juniors. When Hero Bai arrives in person, we have to change this bet. If Hero Bai wants to make a move with him, we Click until the end, let's decide the victory or defeat within two or three western moves!" Bai Wanjian said calmly: "It turns out that what Mr. Bei said doesn't count." Bei Haishi laughed, and said, "Ten tricks are just a gamble against ordinary youngsters with low martial arts skills, who are arrogant and ignorant. people?" Bai Wanjian said: "If the Changle Gang claims to be low-ranking dog robbers, then what's the problem even if the subordinates have low martial arts skills and are arrogant and ignorant?" But the younger brother was all in shackles, his face was haggard, and his heart was extremely angry, so he grabbed Bei Haishi with a word, and he must force him to admit that he is a low-grade dog robber. At this moment, someone outside the door suddenly said loudly: "Yang Guang from Songjiang Mansion, Shi Qing from Xuansuzhuang, and Min Rou are here to visit." It was Shi Qing's voice. Shi Potian was overjoyed, jumped up, shouted: "Daddy, Mommy!" and ran out.When he passed Bai Wanjian, Bai Wanjian grabbed his wrist as soon as he stretched out his hand. This strike was extremely fast, Shi Potian was caught off guard, and had already had his veins locked, but he was eager to meet his parents, so he didn't have time to think, so he flicked his hand casually, and his true strength spread everywhere, Bai Wanjian felt half of his body numb, he loosened his fingers hastily, He felt a strong force rushing towards him, and hurriedly took two steps to the side before standing still.Suddenly, Bei Haishi smiled and said: "Sure enough, he has great martial arts skills and extensive knowledge!" This sentence seems to be praising Shi Potian, but it is actually ridiculing Bai Wanjian's "low martial arts, arrogance and ignorance".
Shi Potian accompanied Shi Qing and his wife into the hall with wistful smiles, another tall old man with white beard walked in the middle, followed by five men.Zhenjiang and Songjiang are not far away, Changle Gang Qunhao knew that he was Yang Guang, a famous Jiangnan martial arts legend, Yinji Yang Guang, and even heard that the gang leader called Shi Qing and his wife "Daddy and Mom", so everyone stood up.But seeing Shi Potian holding Min Rou's hand, his expression was extremely intimate. Min Rou looked up at her son slightly, and said with a smile: "I didn't see you in the inn yesterday morning. I was so anxious, but your father said, if someone plots against you, you may be hard to guard against. Take it captive, that is no longer possible. He said that when Changle Gang comes to inquire, he will definitely get news about you, and it really is here." When Ding Dang saw Shi Qing and his wife coming in, his face was as red as coals, he turned his head and did not dare to look at them, but pricked up his ears to listen to what they had to say. Only Shi Qing and his wife, Yang Guang, Bei Haishi, Fan Yifei, and Lu Zhengping were all greeted one by one.The five men behind Yang Guang are all well-known martial arts masters in the south of the Yangtze River, and they were invited by Yang Guang and Shi Qing to come to Changle to judge and testify.Everyone is a well-known figure in the martial arts, and it took a while to finish the polite words such as "I have admired my name for a long time, and I am like a thunderbolt".Knowing that they are Shi Potian's parents, Fan Yifei and the others performed the ceremony with even more respect.Shi Qing and his wife didn't know what to do, seeing that the other party was very polite, they couldn't help but be extra polite.It's just that Bei Haishi suddenly saw that Shi Potian had a pair of parents coming out, and these two are the well-known owner of Xuansu Villa. Shi Potian said to Bei Haishi: "Mr. Bei, let's let go of these heroes of the Snow Mountain School, okay?" He didn't dare to issue orders, and wanted to let Bei Haishi make up his mind. Bei Haishi smiled and said: "The guild leader has an order to release all the 'heroes' of the Xueshan faction." He said the word "heroes" more loudly, which was obviously meant to be ridiculed.More than a dozen members of the Changle Gang suddenly agreed: "Yes! The leader has an order to release all the 'heroes' of the Xueshan faction." Immediately someone took out the key and opened the shackles on the Xueshan disciples. Bai Wanjian pressed the hilt of his sword and said loudly: "Wait a minute! Shi...huh, Master Shi, Mr. Bei, in front of Old Hero Yang of the Yinji Yang of Songjiang Mansion and Mrs. and Mrs. Shizhuang of Xuansuzhuang, we have something to say.得说个明白。”顿了一顿，说道：“咱们武林中人，若是学艺不精。刀枪拳脚上败于人手，对方要杀要辱，那是咎由自取，死而无怨。可是我这些师弟，却是中了长乐帮的蒙汗药而失手被擒，长乐帮使这等卑鄙无耻的手段，到底是损了雪山派的声誉，还是坏了长乐帮名头？这位贝先生适才又说什么来，不妨再说给几位新来的朋友听听。” 贝海石干咳两声，笑道：“这位白兄弟……”白万剑厉声道：“谁跟下三滥的狗强盗称兄道弟了！好不要脸！”贝海石道：“我们石帮主……” 石清插门道：“贝先生，我这孩儿年轻识浅，何德何能，怎可当贵帮的帮主？不久之前他又生了一场重病，将旧事都忘记了。这中间定有重大误会，那'帮主'两字，再也休得提起。在下邀得杨老英雄等六位朋友来此，便是要评说分解此事。白师傅，贵派和长乐帮有过节，我不汽的孩儿又曾得罪了你，这两件事该当分开来谈。我姓石的虽是江湖上泛泛之辈，对人可从不说一句假活。我这孩儿确是将旧事忘得干干净净了。”他顿了一顿，朗声又道：“然而只要是他曾经做过的事，不管记不记得，决不敢推卸罪责。至于旁人假借他名头来干的事，却和我孩儿一概无涉。” 厅上群雄愕然相对，谁也没料到突然竟会有这意外变故发生。 贝海石干笑道：“嘿嘿，嘿嘿，这是从哪里说起？石帮主……”心下只连声叫苦。 石破天摇头道：“我爹爹说得不错。我不是你们的帮主，我不知说过多少遍了，可是你们一定不信。” 范一飞道：“这中间到底有什么隐秘，兄弟颇想洗耳恭听。我们只知长乐帮的帮主是辽东'快马'司徒横司徒大哥，怎么变成是石恩公了？” 杨光一直不做声，这时捻须说道：“白师傅，你也不用性急，谁是谁非，武林中自有公论。”他年纪虽老，说起话来却是声若洪钟，中气充沛，随随便便几句话，便是威势十足，叫人不由得不服。只听他又道：“一切事情，咱们慢慢分说，这几位师傅身上的铐镣，先行开了。”长乐帮的几名帮众见贝海石点了点头，便用钥匙将雪山弟子身上的镣铐一一打开。 白万剑听石清和杨光二人的言语，竟是大有向贝海石问罪之意，对自己反而并无敌意，倒大砟始料之所及。他众帅弟为长乐帮所擒，人孤势单，向贝海石斥骂叫阵，那也是硬着头皮的无可奈何之举，为了雪山派的面子，纵然身遭乱刀分尸，也不肯吞声忍辱，说到取胜的把握，内是半分也无，单贝海石一人自己便未必斗得过。不料石清夫妇与杨光突然来到，忽而生出了转机，当下并不多言，静观贝海石如何应付。 石清待雪山群弟子身上镣铐脱去，分别就坐之后，又道：“贝先生，小儿这么一点儿年纪，见识浅陋之极，要说能为贵帮一帮之主，岂不令天下英雄齿冷？今儿当着杨老英雄和江鹵武林朋友、白师兄和雪山派众位师兄、关东四大门派众位面前，将这事说个明白。我这孩儿石中玉与长乐帮自今而后再无半分干系。他这些年来自己所做的事，自当一一清理，至于旁人借他名义做下的勾当，是好事不敢掠美，是坏事却也不能空担恶名。” 贝海石笑道：“石庄主说出这番话来，可真令人大大地摸不着头脑了。石帮主出任敝帮帮主，已历三年，并非一朝一夕之事，咳咳……我们可从来没听帮主说过，名动江湖的玄素双剑……咳咳……竟是我们帮主的父母。”转头对石破天道：“帮主，你怎地先前一直不说？否则玄素庄离此又没多远，当你出任帮主之时，咱们就该请令尊令堂大人前来观礼了。” 石破天道：“我……我……我本来也不知道啊。” 此语一出，众人都是大为差愕：“怎么你本来也不知道？” 石清道：“我这孩儿生了一场重病，将过往之事一概忘了，连父母也记不起来，须怪他不得。” 贝海石本来给石清逼问得狼狈之极，难以置答，长乐帮众首脑心中都知，所以立石破天为帮主，不过要他去挡侠客岛铜牌之难，直截了当地说，便是要他做替死鬼，但这活即在本帮之内，大家也只是心照，实不便宣之于口，又如何能对外人说起？忽听石破天说连他自己也不知石清夫妇是他父母，登时抓住了话头，说道：“帮主确曾患过一场重病，寒热大作，昏迷多日，但那只是两个多月之前的事。他出任长乐帮帮主之时，却是身子好好的，神志清明，否则怎能以一柄长剑与司徒前帮主的弯刀拆上近百招，凭武功将司徒前帮主打败，因而登上帮主之位？” 石清和闵柔没听儿子说过此事，均感诧异。闵柔问道：“孩儿，这事到底怎样？”关东四门派掌门人听说石破天打败了司徙横，也是十分关注，听闵柔问起，问时瞧着石破天。 贝海石道：“我们向来只知帮主姓石，双名上破下天。'石中玉'这三字，却只从白师傅和石庄主口中听到。是不是石庄主认错了人呢？” 闵柔怒道：“我亲生的孩儿，哪有认错之理？”她虽素来温文有礼，但贝海石竟说这宝贝儿子不是她的孩儿，却忍不住发怒。 石清见贝海石纠缠不清，心想此事终须叫穿，说道：“贝先生，咱们明人不说暗话，贵帮这般瞧得起我孩儿这无知少年，决非为了他有什么雄才伟略、神机妙算，只不过想借他这条小命，来挡过侠客岛铜牌邀宴这一劫，你说是也不是？” 这句话开门见山，直说到了贝海石心中，他虽老辣，脸上也不禁变色，干咳了几下，又苦笑几声，拖延时刻，脑中却在飞快地转动念头，该当如何对答。忽听得一人哈哈大笑，说道：“各位在等侠客岛铜牌邀宴，是不是？很好，好得很，铜牌便在这里！” 只见大厅之中忽然站着两个人，一胖一瘦，衣饰华贵，这两人何时来到，竟是谁也没有知觉。
石破天眼见二人，心下大喜，叫道：“大哥，二哥，多日不见，别来可好？” 石清夫妇曾听他说起和张。三、李四结拜之事，听得他口称“大哥、二哥”，这一惊当真非同小可。石清忙道：“二位来得正好。我们正在分说长乐帮帮主身份之事，二位正可也来做个见证。”这时石破天已走到张三、李四身边，拉着二人的手，甚是亲热欢喜。 张三笑嘻嘻地道：“三弟，你这个长乐帮帮主，只怕是冒牌货吧？” 闵柔心想孩儿的生死便悬于这顷刻之间，再也顾不得什么温文娴淑，当即插口道：“是啊！长乐帮的帮主是'快马'同徙横司徒帮主，他们骗了我孩儿来挡灾，那是当不得真的。” 张三向李四问道：“老二，你说如何？”李四阴恻恻地道：“该找正主儿。”张三笑嘻嘻地道：“是啊、咱三个义结金兰，说过有福共享，有难同当。长乐帮要咱们三弟来挡灾，那不是要我哥儿们的好看吗？” 群雄一见张三、李四突然现身的身手，已知他二人武功高得出奇，再见他二人的形态，宛然便是三十年来武林中闻之色变的善恶二使，无不凛然，便是贝海石、白万剑这等高手，也不由得心中评怦而跳。但听他们自称和石破天是结义兄弟，又均不明其故。 张三义道：“我哥儿俩奉命来请人去喝腊八粥，原是一番好窻。不知如何，大家总是不肯赏脸，推三阻四的，叫人好生扫兴。再说，我们所请的，不是大门派的掌门人，便是大帮的帮主、大教的教主，等闲之人，那两块铜牌也还到不了他手上。很好，很好，很好！” 他连说三个“很好”，眼光向范一飞、吕正平、风良、高三娘子四人脸上扫过，只瞧得四人心中发毛。他最后瞧到高三娘子时，目光多停了一会儿，笑嗜嘻地又道：“很好！”范一飞等都已猜到，自己是关东四大门派掌门人，这次也在被邀之列，张三所以连说“很好”，当是说四个人都在这里遇到，倒省了一番跋涉之劳。 高三娘子大声道：“你瞧着老娘连说'很好'，那是什么意思？”张三笑嘻嘻地道：“很好就是很好，那还有什么意思？总之不是'很不好'，也不是'不很好'就是了。” 高三娘子喝道：“你要杀便杀，老娘可不接你的铜牌！”右手一挥，呼呼风响，两柄飞刀便向张三激射过去。 众人都是一惊，均想不到她一言不合便即动手，对善恶二使竟是毫不忌惮。其实高三娘子性子虽然暴躁，却非全无心机的草包，她料想善恶二使既送铜牌到来，这场灾难无论如何是躲不过了，眼下长乐帮总舵之中高手如云，敌忾同仇，一动上手，谁都不会置身事外，与其让他二人来逐一歼灭，不如乘着人多势众之际，合关东四派、长乐帮、霄山派、玄素庄、杨光等江南豪杰诸路人马之力，打他个以多胜少。 石破天叫道：“大哥，小心！” 张三笑道：“不碍事！”衣袖轻挥，两块黄澄澄的东西从袖中飞了出去，分别射向两柄飞刀，当的一声，两块黄色之物由竖变横，托着飞刀向高三娘子撞去。 从风声听来，这飞撞之力甚是凌厉，高三娘子双手齐伸，抓住了两块黄色之物，只觉双臂震得发痛，上半身尽皆酸麻，低头看时，不由得倒抽一口凉气，托着飞刀的黄色之物，正是那两块追魂夺命的赏善罚恶铜牌。 她早就听人说过善恶二使的规矩，只要伸手接了他二人交来的铜牌，就算是答允赴侠客岛之宴，再也不能推托。霎时之间，她脸上更无半分血色，身子也不由自主地微微发抖，干笑道：“哈哈，要我……我……我……我去侠客岛……喝……腊八……粥……”声音苦涩不堪，旁人听着都不禁代她难受。 张三仍是笑嘻嘻地道：“贝先生，你们安排下机关，骗我三弟来冒充帮主。他是个忠厚老实之人，不免上当。我张三、李四却不忠厚老实了。我们来邀客人，岂有不查个明内的？倘若邀错了人，闹下天大的笑话，张三、李四颜面何存？长乐帮帮主这个正主儿，我们早查得清清楚楚，倒花了不少力气，已找了来放在这里。兄弟，咱们请正主儿下来，好不好？”李四道：“不错，该当请他下来。”伸手抓住两张圆凳，呼的一声，向屋顶掷了上去。 只听得轰隆一声响，屋顶登时撞出了一个大洞，泥沙纷落之中，挟着一团物事掉了下来，砰的一声，摔在筵席之前。 群豪不约而同地向旁避了几步，只见从屋顶摔下来的竟然是一个人。这人缩成一团，蜷伏于地。 李四左手食指点出，嗤嗤声响，解开了那人的穴道。那人便慢慢站起身来，伸手揉眼，茫然四顾。 众人齐声惊呼，有的说：“他，他！”有的说：“怎……怎么……”有的说：“怪……怪了！”众人见到李四凌虚解穴，以指风撞击数尺外旁人的穴道，这等高深的武功向来只是耳闻，从未目睹，人人早已惊骇无已，又见那人五官面目宛然便又是一个石破天，只是全身绫罗，服饰华丽，更感诧异。 只听那人颤声道：“你……你们又要对我怎样？” 张三笑道：“石帮主，你躲在扬州妓院之中，数月来埋头不出，艳福无边。贝先生他们到处寻你不着，只得另外找了个人来冒充你做帮主。但你想瞒过侠客岛使者的耳目，可没这么容易了。我们来请你去喝腊八粥，你去是不去？”说着从袖中取出两块铜牌，托在手中。 那少年脸现惧色，急退两步，颤声道：“我……我当然木去。我干吗……干吗要去？” 石破天奇道：“大哥，这……这到底是怎么回事？” 张三笑道：“三弟，你瞧这人相貌跟你像不像？长乐帮奉他为帮主，本是要他来接铜牌的，可是这人怕死，悄悄躲了起来，贝先生他们无可奈何，便骗了你来顶替他做帮主。可是你大哥、二哿还是将他揪了出来，叫你做不成氏乐帮的帮主，你怪不怪我？” 石破天摇摇头，目不转睛地瞧着那人，过了半晌，说道：“妈妈、爹爹、丁丁当当、贝先生，我……我早说你们认错了人，我不是他，他……他才是真的。” 闵柔抢上一步，颤声道：“你……你是玉儿？”那人点了点头，道：“妈，爹，你们都在这里。” 白万剑踏上一步，森然道：“你还认得我吗？”那人低下了头，抱拳行礼，说道：“白师叔，众……众位师叔，也都来了。”白万剑嘿嘿冷笑，道：“我们都来了。” 贝海石皱眉道：“这两位容貌相似，身材年岁又是一样，到底哪一位是本帮的帮主，我可认不出来，这当真是天下之大，无奇不有。你……你才是石帮主，是不是？”那人点了点头。贝海石道：“这些日子中，帮主却又到了何
Shi Potian and Ding Dang walked into the room side by side.Shi Jian couldn't help being both surprised and happy when he saw the guild leader coming back, but seeing him with a beautiful girl, he had seen it a lot, and couldn't help being secretly annoyed: "The body just got wider, and the old problem has reappeared. I told him a little bit earlier. After a serious illness, he changed his temper, hey, he seems to have changed his temper, the sun really came out from the west." Shi Potian washed his face, and just after drinking a cup of tea, he heard Bei Haishi say outside the door: "Shi Jian, please tell the leader, Bei Haishi asks to see you." , Said: "Mr. Bei, I just wanted to ask you, what happened to that Situ gang leader?" Bei Haishi said: "Master, please move." He led him through the garden and came to an octagonal pavilion on the Chrysanthemum Pan Altar. After all these days, can you still not remember the past?" Shi Potian once listened to his parents' careful analysis, saying that the heroes of the Changle Gang wanted him to be the leader with sinister intentions. They wanted him to prevent disasters for the Changle Gang and give him a small life to relieve the danger of the whole gang.But Bei Haishi has always been respectful and courteous to him. He was fighting with cold and heat on the Motian Cliff, but fortunately he rescued him. Afterwards, he fell ill for several days, and he tried his best to diagnose and treat him. Although it was out of selfishness, he always saved his life. At this moment, if he directly questioned him, it would embarrass his face. Besides, he really didn't know anything about the past, so he had to ask clearly, and said, "Exactly, Mr. Bei, please explain it in detail from the beginning to the end." Bei Haishi said: "Situ's former gang leader was named Situ Heng, and he had a nickname called 'Quick Horse'. He used to be at the foot of Changbai Mountain in Liaodong, and he was the gang leader's uncle. Do you remember the gang leader?" Shi Potian wondered: " It's my uncle, I...why don't I remember at all? What sect is that?" Bei Haishi said: "Master Situ never talks about his master's background, and it is inconvenient for us subordinates to ask more. Three years ago, the leader was ordered by Master..." Shi Potian asked: "As ordered by Master, my Master Are you sure?" Bei Haishi shook his head, and said: "The master's illness is really serious, even the master has forgotten. The master's master's lineage, the subordinates don't know, the last time Bai Wanjian of the Xueshan sect insisted that the master He is a disciple of the Xueshan School, and his subordinates are also very suspicious, looking at the number of martial arts families of the leader, it seems that it does not seem to be the same, and the kung fu of the Xueshan School is not as good as that of the leader." Shi Potian said: "My master? I only worshiped Granny Shi of the Golden Crow Sect as my teacher, but that was recently." Stretching out his fingers and tapping his head, he felt that the past events he remembered were always different from what others said Consistent, so troubled, asked: "I am ordered by the master, so what?" Bei Haishi said: "The leader of the gang was ordered by his master to come to seek refuge with the leader of the Situ clan, asking him to support him and make a name for himself in the rivers and lakes. After a while, a major event happened in our gang. , Bronze Medal Invitation to a Banquet. Do you remember this incident, the leader?" Shi Potian said: "I know about the bronze medal that rewards good and punishes evil. How did I discuss it at that time, but there was no trace in my mind. "Bei Haishi said: "This gang once a year, for example, on the third day of March, the whole gang gathers together. The incense masters of the general rudder, and the rudder masters of the sub-rudders from all over the country all come to Zhenjiang to meet and discuss the important affairs of the gang. The big gathering three years ago In the middle, there is a He Xiangzhu who suddenly mentioned that the gang has been thriving in recent years, and in three years, the bronze medal in the invitation banquet will reappear in the Jianghu. That's good, lest things come to an end and you panic." Shi Potian nodded and said: "Yes, once the bronze medal for rewarding good and punishing evil arrives, if the gang leader does not accept the medal and agree to eat Laba porridge, the whole gang will be slaughtered. I have seen that with my own eyes." Bei Haishi's heart trembled, and he wondered, "Has the leader seen it with his own eyes?" Shi Potian said, "Actually, I am not your leader, but I have seen this incident. It is the Flying Fish Gang and Tiecha Society. Both gangs were completely killed." He said in his heart, "Oh! Eldest brother and second elder brother are too tricky." The Flying Fish Gang and Tie Chahui were massacred by the whole gang because they didn't receive the bronze medal, and it has been widely known in the martial arts world.Bei Haishi sighed, and said: "We have expected this day, so that Lord He Xiang brought up this matter back then, it really can't be said to be unfounded, can it? But when Master Situ heard this, he immediately became angry He was furious, saying that He Xiangzhu was instigating people's hearts and plotting wrongdoing, and immediately ordered him to be detained. Everyone begged for mercy, Situ Gangzhu agreed, but quietly killed him in the middle of the night, and said that He Xiangzhu committed suicide in fear of crime the next day. " Shi Potian said: "Then why? Presumably the leader Situ had a grudge against this Lord He Xiang, so he found a reason to kill him." Bei Haishi shook his head and said, "That's not true, the real reason is that the leader Situ doesn't want others Mention this matter." Shi Potian nodded.He is very intelligent in nature, but he has never seen people face to face, so he doesn't know anything about the world. Recently, he spent many days with Shi Qing, his wife and Ding Dang, and he was able to figure out the thoughts of others. That is to be buried on the island, never to return; but if he does not receive the bronze medal, he will have to die with his whole gang of brothers and sisters. He has probably been thinking about this matter day and night, and has been thinking about it for several years. But I don’t want others to openly bring up this problem.” Bei Haishi continued: "Naturally, all the brothers know that He Xiangzhu was killed by him. It doesn't matter if he kills He Xiangzhu, but it is conceivable from this that when the bronze medal for the banquet comes, he will definitely not accept it, and he will never be generous. , in exchange for the safety of the whole gang. At that time, all the brothers had their own concerns and kept silent. At that time, you, the gang leader, stepped forward and questioned the uncle." Shi Potian was very surprised, and said: "I stepped forward and questioned... questioned him?" Bei Haishi said: "Yes! At that time, the leader of the gang, you spoke eloquently and said: 'Uncle, since you are the leader of the gang, you should think deeply and make a long-term plan for the gang. Not far away. Master He Xiang brought this matter up for the sake of all the brothers in the gang. Uncle, you force him to kill him on the island, lest the brothers will not accept it." Situ's gang leader immediately changed his face and scolded, saying: "Bold boy, this Changle Among the rudders of the gang, how can you speak? Changle was created by myself, even if it is destroyed by myself, it will not be able to stand up to other people's gossip.' These words of the leader of the gang made all the brothers feel even more chilling But you said, "Uncle, if you accept the card, you will die, and if you don't accept the card, you will die. What's the difference? If you don't accept the card, it will only cost the lives of many loyal and courageous brothers." That's all, what good is it to you? It's better to accept the cards generously and tell the whole gang to always remember your kindness.'" Shi Potian nodded and said: "That's not bad, but...but...Mr. Bei, I'm not so eloquent, I'm not capable of speaking so clearly." The fact that the leader of the gang has just been seriously ill has not fully recovered his brain power. When he recovers in the future, his eloquence will not be hindered, not to mention that no one in this gang can match, even in the Jianghu, who can match you?" Shi Potian doubted, said: "Really? I... After I said this, so what?" Bei Haishi said: "The head of the Situ gang turned blue immediately, slapped the table and cursed, and shouted: 'Quick...quickly tie up this up and down kid for me!' But he kept drinking several times, you see Look at me, I look at you, but no one moved. Master Situ was even more annoyed, and shouted: "Rebellion, rebellion! You are all colluding with this kid to rebel against me, right? Well, you don't Do it, I will kill this kid myself!'” Shi Potian said: "Brothers, have you persuaded him?" Bei Haishi said: "All the brothers were dissatisfied in their hearts, but none of them made a sound. Leader Situ immediately pulled out the scimitar from the scabbard, left his seat, and slashed at you, leader. You swayed and dodged immediately. Master Situ even tried to kill you, but you avoided them one by one, and you never fought back. You are empty-handed, and Master Situ's scimitar is also unique in martial arts. It is known as the "Quick Horse Sword" in Liaodong. It is very rare to be able to avoid seven or eight tricks. At that time, Master Mi Xiang called out: Master, your nephew told you not to fight back after eight moves. First, I respect you as the master of the gang. Assassin, everyone in the world will send you." Situ yelled angrily: "Who told him not to fight back? Anyway, you have already favored him, everyone worked together to kill me, and this kid is the leader of the gang. , will not the wish of the people be fulfilled?' "He scolded furiously at the door, and his hands didn't stop at all. In an instant, you were in danger, and saw that you were about to die under his machete. Master Mi Xiang shouted: "Brother Shi, take the sword!" Throw it over to you. You stretch out your hand to copy it, and gave up three more moves, saying: "Master, I have already given up twenty moves. If you don't do it again, I have no choice but to offend you." Situ's gang leader showed a fierce look, Swing your scimitar and chop it at the top of your head. At that time, more than 20 people in the meeting hall shouted in unison: "Fight back, fight back, don't let him hurt you!" You said: "Offended!" Then you raised your sword to block his bend Knife. "When the two of you started fighting, the fight was very fierce. After a cup of tea, everyone could see that you didn't try your best and let him go, but he still fought fiercely. Finally, you made it This move is like the move of "pushing the boat with the water". The point of the sword pierced his right wrist, and he fell to the ground with the scimitar. You immediately retract the sword and take three steps away. The head of the Situ clan stood there in a daze, his face was completely pale, and his eyes followed the eyes of the brothers. Faces were swept across one by one. At this time, there was no sound in the meeting room, only the blood from the wound on his wrist fell drop by drop on the ground, making a very slight click sound. After a long while, he said tragically: "Okay, okay, okay!" He strode out. More than forty people in the hall watched him go out, but no one made a sound. "Situ Clan Leader left like this, Huai knew that he would never see him again. When he came back, the clan could not be without a leader, and everyone pushed you to inherit. At that time, you said with emotion: "The boy has no virtue and incompetence. Originally, he was determined not to take on this important task, but In another three years, the bronze medal of good and evil will reappear in the Jianghu, and the kid will temporarily occupy this position. If the bronze medal for the banquet is sent to the wood gang, the kid will be able to receive it, and it will be a disaster for everyone." Brothers As soon as they heard it, they cheered in unison, and immediately bowed down. To tell you the truth, you fought against Situ with great strength. Everyone has seen your martial arts. In fact, even if your martial arts are mediocre, as long as you promise to prevent disasters for the gang, Out of selfishness, everyone will embrace you as master." Shi Potian nodded and said: "So I went out several times, and you all seemed to be in a hurry, lest I never come back." Bei Haishi blushed slightly, and said: "After the Clan Leader took office, everyone has no objection to many measures. I don't care anymore." Shi Potian pondered and said: "Mr. Bei, I can't remember the past, please don't hide it, what kind of big mistake did I make?" Not necessarily. The gang leader Fang was young and suave, but it is not a problem. Fortunately, most of these women are out of their own wishes, and the forced things are not too many. The reputation of the Changle Gang is not very good. The brothers heard that The news is nothing more than a laugh.” Shi Potian could only hear sweat dripping from his forehead, Bei Haishi said these words lightly, but obviously he must have committed a lot of romantic crimes in the past few years.However, he thought hard, and besides Ding Dang alone, he could not remember any other women he had had ambiguous affairs with. Suddenly, a thought came to his mind: "If Axiu listens At this point, just look at me, and I'll... I'll..." Bei Haishi said: "Master, I have a sentence that I don't know how to advance or retreat. I don't know if I should say it or not?" It is unavoidable for our Changle Gang to do some shady business, otherwise, where would the whole 20,000-odd brothers get food and clothes? We are not heroes on the white road, and we don’t need to abide by their benevolence and righteousness Moral rules. It’s just that the wives and daughters of the brothers in the gang, according to the opinions of the subordinates, the leader of the gang still... it’s better to ignore them, so as not to hurt the harmony between the brothers.” Shi Potian blushed immediately, feeling ashamed, remembering that night Lord Zhanxiang came to assassinate him, saying that he had robbed his wife, if it happened, what should he do? Bei Haishi said again: "Mr. Ding Busan's behavior is weird, and his martial arts are extremely high. The leader is in contact with his granddaughter and will abandon her in the future. I'm afraid Mr. Ding won't give up. Even the leader will not be afraid of him. , but always make an extra strong enemy..." Shi Potian stepped in and said, "How could I abandon Miss Ding?" I don't have much interest in these girls. This girl Ding, it's nothing if the boss really wants to befriend her, but it seems that there is no need for marriage or something, so as not to fall into the trap of Laoer Ding." Shi Potian said: "But ...But I have already married her." Bei Haishi said: "At that time, the leader was still seriously ill, most likely he was at the mercy of Old Ding while he was ill, so it can't be accurate." Shi Po Tian frowned, unable to answer for a moment. Bei Haishi thought that enough should be enough to talk about this, so he changed the topic and said: "The four sects of the east of the Kanto came to you aggressively, and when they saw the leader, they softened immediately. Yes, it shows the mighty virtue of the leader. The martial arts of the leader has grown so fast, which is gratifying, but I don’t know why?” How Shi Potian managed to retreat and save the lives of the senior high school lady and others, the Kanto Qunhao had already added fuel to the matter on the way. Talk to Changle to help everyone know.Disaster Haishi never expected that Shi Potian's martial arts would be so powerful, he wanted to ask why, but Shi Potian himself was also puzzled and couldn't explain why. But Bei Haishi thought that he was unwilling to talk about it, so he said: "These people are quite famous in the martial arts. Since the leader is kind to them, he can take the opportunity to win over them and use them for the gang. If they ask Situ Regarding the matter of the former gang leader, the gang leader only needs to say that the former gang leader Situ has retired, but he does not need to tell them what his subordinates said just now, so as not to cause another incident and cause another dispute, which is of no benefit to everyone." Shi Potian nodded and said: " Mr Bay is right." The two gossiped for a while, and Bei Haishi took out a list from his bosom, reporting which managers had been replaced by various sub-rudders in the past few months, how much silver and rice were sent by what cottage, and how much money was collected at what wharf. monthly rules.Shi Potian didn't know why, so he just responded, but according to Bei Haishi's words, some of the actions of the Changle Gang were exactly what his parents said in the past few days. , Food and livestock, it is clear that they are sitting on the ground to share the spoils; if there is any local gang cottage that does not obey orders, the Changle gang will pick it up and destroy it.He felt something was wrong, but he didn't know how to tell Bei Haishi.
That night, the chief rudder held a grand feast for the heroes of the Kanto region, Shi Potian, Bei Haishi, and Ding Dang were accompanied by the next prime minister. After drinking for three rounds, everyone said some polite words.Fan Yifei said: "Great benefactor, the Changle Gang is so prosperous after tidying up, Brother Situ must be very happy." Bei Haishi said: "Senior Situ is fishing and planting flowers at the moment, and he doesn't see anyone, so he can live leisurely and comfortably. He uses it in the old man's house. , our gang will send it from Feng every month, and we will give him whatever he wants." Fan Yifei was about to make excuses to inquire again, when he suddenly saw the assistant incense master of Humeng Hall hurried to Bei Haishi's side and whispered something in his ear. Bei Haishi nodded with a smile, and said: "Very good, very good." Turning his head to Shi Potian, he said with a smile: "So that the leader of the sect can know that after the disciples from Xueshan School were captured by us, Lingxiao City has sent them again these days. The backup is intended to save people. Who knows that stealing chickens won’t cost you money, and we caught two more just now.” Shi Potian was slightly startled, and said: "Have you captured all the disciples of the Xueshan Sect?" Bei Haishi smiled and said, "The last time the leader and Bai Wanjian left the main helm together, the brothers are very worried, I'm afraid the leader is loyal. Treat people like that guy..." He couldn't directly say that Shi Potian was captured by Bai Wanjian in front of the heroes of the Guandong, so he kept his words vague and said: "Let's all go out, Inquiring about the whereabouts of the sect leader, he bumped into a group of Snow Mountain disciples near Dangtu, and with a little trickery, they were all captured and imprisoned at the main rudder, but it was a pity that Bai Wanjian was so alert that he left alone. " Ding Dang suddenly interjected and asked, "Where's that girl Hua Wanzihua?" Bei Haishi smiled and said, "That was the first batch to be caught at the main rudder. Miss Ding was also there at the time, wasn't she? We caught them all that time." Seven." Fan Yifei and the others were horrified, thinking: "The Snow Mountain School is so famous, but with the help of Changle, it was unexpectedly defeated like this." Bei Haishi continued: "We asked the disciples of the Xueshan faction about the whereabouts of the leader, and everyone said that the leader left at the Earth Temple that night and never saw him again. Everyone was relieved when they learned that the leader was safe. Disciples of the Xueshan School can be killed or shut down, but they are punished by the leader of the sect." Shi Potian pondered: "Father and mother said that I did study under the Xueshan School before, and these Xueshan School disciples are my uncles, how can I keep them locked up? Of course they must not be killed." : "There is some misunderstanding between us and the Xueshan faction, or... Hua..." He wanted to say an idiom, but he just learned it, so he couldn't remember it for a while. Bei Haishi said, "Turn an enemy into a friend." Shi Potian said: "Yeah, let's turn enemies into friends! Mr. Bei, I want to let them go and invite them to drink together, okay?" He didn't know if there was such a rule in the martial arts, so he asked and thought again. It took Bei Haishi and the others a lot of effort to get the Xueshan group of disciples, and they let them go with a single word, which is unavoidable.Although others respect him as the leader of the gang, he himself does not realize that everyone in the gang must follow his orders.Bei Haishi smiled and said: "The leader is so magnanimous, it is a beautiful thing in the martial arts." He ordered: "Bring those people from the Xueshan Sect." The incense master agreed to go on, and soon four gang members escorted two white-clothed men to come up.Both of those two had their hands tied behind their backs, and their jerseys were stained with a lot of blood, obviously after a fight, both of them were injured.The incense master shouted: "Go up and see the gang leader." The older middle-aged man glared at him, and another strong man in his thirties yelled, "You're so quick, kill me with a knife! You evil thieves and robbers will be full of evil one day. Wait for my master Wade to kill you!" Mister has come and will cut you into pieces one by one to avenge me." Suddenly I heard a thunderstorm outside the window and shouted: "Young brother Shi scolded you so heartily, you are a dog and a robber, you are a vile bastard." All the disciples put on shackles and handcuffs, and walked out of the hall boldly.Geng Wanzhong, Huyan Wanshan, Wang Wanren, Ke Wanjun, Hua Wanzi, etc. were among them, and even Wang Wanyi, who was very good at lightness kung fu, was caught this time.As soon as Wang Wanren came in, he cursed "dog robber, bastard" endlessly, and some said: "If you have the ability, you can do it with real swords and guns, and make it smell like medicine. That's the work of a low-grade thief. " Fan Yifei, Feng Liang and the others looked at each other, thinking: "If they are caught by the scented and sweaty medicine, then there will be no glory." With a glance, Bei Haishi knew what the Kwantung heroes wanted, so he immediately got up from his seat, and said with a smile, "In the battle of Dangtu, we did use Mongolian sweat medicine. It's not that we were afraid of everyone's martial arts skills, it's just that Gu Nianshi's leader and Your teachers have some connections in the past, and you don’t want to hurt you with a knife or a gun, and you are out of harmony. You are obviously dissatisfied in your heart when you say this. If we can handle the ten tricks, how about our Changle gang being a lowly gangster?" That day in the Changle Clan's chief helm battle, Bei Haishi performed five elements and six combined palms, Ke Wanjun and the others couldn't do two or three moves before being knocked down by him. If it is said that he wants to catch him with ten moves, it is really difficult to do.Shi Wannian, the newly captured Xueshan disciple, didn't know that he was so good at martial arts. Seeing that he was yellow and haggard, as thin as a stick, and looked like a sick man, why should he be afraid of him?Immediately shouted loudly: "Your Changle Gang only relies on the number to win, what's so great about it? Don't talk about ten tricks, I have accepted your hundred tricks." Bei Haishi smiled and said: "Very good, very good! This brother is really very courageous. Let's make a bet like this: You can accept my tricks, and the Changle Gang is a vicious dog robber; if your brother If you lose within ten moves, the Xueshan faction will be a gangster dog, okay?" As he spoke, he moved closer to him, and with a flick of his right hand, a finger-thin hemp rope tied around Shi Wannian's body came out in response. Duan, said with a smile: "Please!" After Shi Wannian was tied up, I don't know how many times I have struggled, knowing that the hemp ropes on my body are very tough, but who knew that the sick man flicked them so casually, and the hemp ropes that he couldn't stop struggling were like vermicelli noodles.In an instant, his complexion changed drastically, and his body trembled involuntarily. How dare he fight Bei Haishi? Suddenly someone outside the hall said loudly: "Very good, very good! Let's make a bet!" As soon as everyone heard this voice, Xueshan's disciple's face brightened immediately, and everyone in Changle Gang was startled, even Bei Haishi was also shocked. Slightly discolored. The hall door was pushed open with a slam, and someone walked in with great strides, majestic and heroic, it was "Qi Han Northwest" Bai Wanjian.He clasped his fists together and said, "If you're not talented, try to catch Mr. Bei's ten tricks." Bei Haishi smiled slightly, although his expression was still calm, his heart was already very embarrassed. In terms of Bai Wanjian's martial arts, although he could defeat him, he had to be within a hundred moves, within ten moves Winning is absolutely impossible.He changed his mind, then smiled and said: "A bet of ten tricks can only deceive Hero Bai's juniors. When Hero Bai arrives in person, we have to change this bet. If Hero Bai wants to make a move with him, we Click until the end, let's decide the victory or defeat within two or three western moves!" Bai Wanjian said calmly: "It turns out that what Mr. Bei said doesn't count." Bei Haishi laughed, and said, "Ten tricks are just a gamble against ordinary youngsters with low martial arts skills, who are arrogant and ignorant. people?" Bai Wanjian said: "If the Changle Gang claims to be low-ranking dog robbers, then what's the problem even if the subordinates have low martial arts skills and are arrogant and ignorant?" But the younger brother was all in shackles, his face was haggard, and his heart was extremely angry, so he grabbed Bei Haishi with a word, and he must force him to admit that he is a low-grade dog robber. At this moment, someone outside the door suddenly said loudly: "Yang Guang from Songjiang Mansion, Shi Qing from Xuansuzhuang, and Min Rou are here to visit." It was Shi Qing's voice. Shi Potian was overjoyed, jumped up, shouted: "Daddy, Mommy!" and ran out.When he passed Bai Wanjian, Bai Wanjian grabbed his wrist as soon as he stretched out his hand. This strike was extremely fast, Shi Potian was caught off guard, and had already had his veins locked, but he was eager to meet his parents, so he didn't have time to think, so he flicked his hand casually, and his true strength spread everywhere, Bai Wanjian felt half of his body numb, he loosened his fingers hastily, He felt a strong force rushing towards him, and hurriedly took two steps to the side before standing still.Suddenly, Bei Haishi smiled and said: "Sure enough, he has great martial arts skills and extensive knowledge!" This sentence seems to be praising Shi Potian, but it is actually ridiculing Bai Wanjian's "low martial arts, arrogance and ignorance".
Shi Potian accompanied Shi Qing and his wife into the hall with wistful smiles, another tall old man with white beard walked in the middle, followed by five men.Zhenjiang and Songjiang are not far away, Changle Gang Qunhao knew that he was Yang Guang, a famous Jiangnan martial arts legend, Yinji Yang Guang, and even heard that the gang leader called Shi Qing and his wife "Daddy and Mom", so everyone stood up.But seeing Shi Potian holding Min Rou's hand, his expression was extremely intimate. Min Rou looked up at her son slightly, and said with a smile: "I didn't see you in the inn yesterday morning. I was so anxious, but your father said, if someone plots against you, you may be hard to guard against. Take it captive, that is no longer possible. He said that when Changle Gang comes to inquire, he will definitely get news about you, and it really is here." When Ding Dang saw Shi Qing and his wife coming in, his face was as red as coals, he turned his head and did not dare to look at them, but pricked up his ears to listen to what they had to say. Only Shi Qing and his wife, Yang Guang, Bei Haishi, Fan Yifei, and Lu Zhengping were all greeted one by one.The five men behind Yang Guang are all well-known martial arts masters in the south of the Yangtze River, and they were invited by Yang Guang and Shi Qing to come to Changle to judge and testify.Everyone is a well-known figure in the martial arts, and it took a while to finish the polite words such as "I have admired my name for a long time, and I am like a thunderbolt".Knowing that they are Shi Potian's parents, Fan Yifei and the others performed the ceremony with even more respect.Shi Qing and his wife didn't know what to do, seeing that the other party was very polite, they couldn't help but be extra polite.It's just that Bei Haishi suddenly saw that Shi Potian had a pair of parents coming out, and these two are the well-known owner of Xuansu Villa. Shi Potian said to Bei Haishi: "Mr. Bei, let's let go of these heroes of the Snow Mountain School, okay?" He didn't dare to issue orders, and wanted to let Bei Haishi make up his mind. Bei Haishi smiled and said: "The guild leader has an order to release all the 'heroes' of the Xueshan faction." He said the word "heroes" more loudly, which was obviously meant to be ridiculed.More than a dozen members of the Changle Gang suddenly agreed: "Yes! The leader has an order to release all the 'heroes' of the Xueshan faction." Immediately someone took out the key and opened the shackles on the Xueshan disciples. Bai Wanjian pressed the hilt of his sword and said loudly: "Wait a minute! Shi...huh, Master Shi, Mr. Bei, in front of Old Hero Yang of the Yinji Yang of Songjiang Mansion and Mrs. and Mrs. Shizhuang of Xuansuzhuang, we have something to say.得说个明白。”顿了一顿，说道：“咱们武林中人，若是学艺不精。刀枪拳脚上败于人手，对方要杀要辱，那是咎由自取，死而无怨。可是我这些师弟，却是中了长乐帮的蒙汗药而失手被擒，长乐帮使这等卑鄙无耻的手段，到底是损了雪山派的声誉，还是坏了长乐帮名头？这位贝先生适才又说什么来，不妨再说给几位新来的朋友听听。” 贝海石干咳两声，笑道：“这位白兄弟……”白万剑厉声道：“谁跟下三滥的狗强盗称兄道弟了！好不要脸！”贝海石道：“我们石帮主……” 石清插门道：“贝先生，我这孩儿年轻识浅，何德何能，怎可当贵帮的帮主？不久之前他又生了一场重病，将旧事都忘记了。这中间定有重大误会，那'帮主'两字，再也休得提起。在下邀得杨老英雄等六位朋友来此，便是要评说分解此事。白师傅，贵派和长乐帮有过节，我不汽的孩儿又曾得罪了你，这两件事该当分开来谈。我姓石的虽是江湖上泛泛之辈，对人可从不说一句假活。我这孩儿确是将旧事忘得干干净净了。”他顿了一顿，朗声又道：“然而只要是他曾经做过的事，不管记不记得，决不敢推卸罪责。至于旁人假借他名头来干的事，却和我孩儿一概无涉。” 厅上群雄愕然相对，谁也没料到突然竟会有这意外变故发生。 贝海石干笑道：“嘿嘿，嘿嘿，这是从哪里说起？石帮主……”心下只连声叫苦。 石破天摇头道：“我爹爹说得不错。我不是你们的帮主，我不知说过多少遍了，可是你们一定不信。” 范一飞道：“这中间到底有什么隐秘，兄弟颇想洗耳恭听。我们只知长乐帮的帮主是辽东'快马'司徒横司徒大哥，怎么变成是石恩公了？” 杨光一直不做声，这时捻须说道：“白师傅，你也不用性急，谁是谁非，武林中自有公论。”他年纪虽老，说起话来却是声若洪钟，中气充沛，随随便便几句话，便是威势十足，叫人不由得不服。只听他又道：“一切事情，咱们慢慢分说，这几位师傅身上的铐镣，先行开了。”长乐帮的几名帮众见贝海石点了点头，便用钥匙将雪山弟子身上的镣铐一一打开。 白万剑听石清和杨光二人的言语，竟是大有向贝海石问罪之意，对自己反而并无敌意，倒大砟始料之所及。他众帅弟为长乐帮所擒，人孤势单，向贝海石斥骂叫阵，那也是硬着头皮的无可奈何之举，为了雪山派的面子，纵然身遭乱刀分尸，也不肯吞声忍辱，说到取胜的把握，内是半分也无，单贝海石一人自己便未必斗得过。不料石清夫妇与杨光突然来到，忽而生出了转机，当下并不多言，静观贝海石如何应付。 石清待雪山群弟子身上镣铐脱去，分别就坐之后，又道：“贝先生，小儿这么一点儿年纪，见识浅陋之极，要说能为贵帮一帮之主，岂不令天下英雄齿冷？今儿当着杨老英雄和江鹵武林朋友、白师兄和雪山派众位师兄、关东四大门派众位面前，将这事说个明白。我这孩儿石中玉与长乐帮自今而后再无半分干系。他这些年来自己所做的事，自当一一清理，至于旁人借他名义做下的勾当，是好事不敢掠美，是坏事却也不能空担恶名。” 贝海石笑道：“石庄主说出这番话来，可真令人大大地摸不着头脑了。石帮主出任敝帮帮主，已历三年，并非一朝一夕之事，咳咳……我们可从来没听帮主说过，名动江湖的玄素双剑……咳咳……竟是我们帮主的父母。”转头对石破天道：“帮主，你怎地先前一直不说？否则玄素庄离此又没多远，当你出任帮主之时，咱们就该请令尊令堂大人前来观礼了。” 石破天道：“我……我……我本来也不知道啊。” 此语一出，众人都是大为差愕：“怎么你本来也不知道？” 石清道：“我这孩儿生了一场重病，将过往之事一概忘了，连父母也记不起来，须怪他不得。” 贝海石本来给石清逼问得狼狈之极，难以置答，长乐帮众首脑心中都知，所以立石破天为帮主，不过要他去挡侠客岛铜牌之难，直截了当地说，便是要他做替死鬼，但这活即在本帮之内，大家也只是心照，实不便宣之于口，又如何能对外人说起？忽听石破天说连他自己也不知石清夫妇是他父母，登时抓住了话头，说道：“帮主确曾患过一场重病，寒热大作，昏迷多日，但那只是两个多月之前的事。他出任长乐帮帮主之时，却是身子好好的，神志清明，否则怎能以一柄长剑与司徒前帮主的弯刀拆上近百招，凭武功将司徒前帮主打败，因而登上帮主之位？” 石清和闵柔没听儿子说过此事，均感诧异。闵柔问道：“孩儿，这事到底怎样？”关东四门派掌门人听说石破天打败了司徙横，也是十分关注，听闵柔问起，问时瞧着石破天。 贝海石道：“我们向来只知帮主姓石，双名上破下天。'石中玉'这三字，却只从白师傅和石庄主口中听到。是不是石庄主认错了人呢？” 闵柔怒道：“我亲生的孩儿，哪有认错之理？”她虽素来温文有礼，但贝海石竟说这宝贝儿子不是她的孩儿，却忍不住发怒。 石清见贝海石纠缠不清，心想此事终须叫穿，说道：“贝先生，咱们明人不说暗话，贵帮这般瞧得起我孩儿这无知少年，决非为了他有什么雄才伟略、神机妙算，只不过想借他这条小命，来挡过侠客岛铜牌邀宴这一劫，你说是也不是？” 这句话开门见山，直说到了贝海石心中，他虽老辣，脸上也不禁变色，干咳了几下，又苦笑几声，拖延时刻，脑中却在飞快地转动念头，该当如何对答。忽听得一人哈哈大笑，说道：“各位在等侠客岛铜牌邀宴，是不是？很好，好得很，铜牌便在这里！” 只见大厅之中忽然站着两个人，一胖一瘦，衣饰华贵，这两人何时来到，竟是谁也没有知觉。
石破天眼见二人，心下大喜，叫道：“大哥，二哥，多日不见，别来可好？” 石清夫妇曾听他说起和张。三、李四结拜之事，听得他口称“大哥、二哥”，这一惊当真非同小可。石清忙道：“二位来得正好。我们正在分说长乐帮帮主身份之事，二位正可也来做个见证。”这时石破天已走到张三、李四身边，拉着二人的手，甚是亲热欢喜。 张三笑嘻嘻地道：“三弟，你这个长乐帮帮主，只怕是冒牌货吧？” 闵柔心想孩儿的生死便悬于这顷刻之间，再也顾不得什么温文娴淑，当即插口道：“是啊！长乐帮的帮主是'快马'同徙横司徒帮主，他们骗了我孩儿来挡灾，那是当不得真的。” 张三向李四问道：“老二，你说如何？”李四阴恻恻地道：“该找正主儿。”张三笑嘻嘻地道：“是啊、咱三个义结金兰，说过有福共享，有难同当。长乐帮要咱们三弟来挡灾，那不是要我哥儿们的好看吗？” 群雄一见张三、李四突然现身的身手，已知他二人武功高得出奇，再见他二人的形态，宛然便是三十年来武林中闻之色变的善恶二使，无不凛然，便是贝海石、白万剑这等高手，也不由得心中评怦而跳。但听他们自称和石破天是结义兄弟，又均不明其故。 张三义道：“我哥儿俩奉命来请人去喝腊八粥，原是一番好窻。不知如何，大家总是不肯赏脸，推三阻四的，叫人好生扫兴。再说，我们所请的，不是大门派的掌门人，便是大帮的帮主、大教的教主，等闲之人，那两块铜牌也还到不了他手上。很好，很好，很好！” 他连说三个“很好”，眼光向范一飞、吕正平、风良、高三娘子四人脸上扫过，只瞧得四人心中发毛。他最后瞧到高三娘子时，目光多停了一会儿，笑嗜嘻地又道：“很好！”范一飞等都已猜到，自己是关东四大门派掌门人，这次也在被邀之列，张三所以连说“很好”，当是说四个人都在这里遇到，倒省了一番跋涉之劳。 高三娘子大声道：“你瞧着老娘连说'很好'，那是什么意思？”张三笑嘻嘻地道：“很好就是很好，那还有什么意思？总之不是'很不好'，也不是'不很好'就是了。” 高三娘子喝道：“你要杀便杀，老娘可不接你的铜牌！”右手一挥，呼呼风响，两柄飞刀便向张三激射过去。 众人都是一惊，均想不到她一言不合便即动手，对善恶二使竟是毫不忌惮。其实高三娘子性子虽然暴躁，却非全无心机的草包，她料想善恶二使既送铜牌到来，这场灾难无论如何是躲不过了，眼下长乐帮总舵之中高手如云，敌忾同仇，一动上手，谁都不会置身事外，与其让他二人来逐一歼灭，不如乘着人多势众之际，合关东四派、长乐帮、霄山派、玄素庄、杨光等江南豪杰诸路人马之力，打他个以多胜少。 石破天叫道：“大哥，小心！” 张三笑道：“不碍事！”衣袖轻挥，两块黄澄澄的东西从袖中飞了出去，分别射向两柄飞刀，当的一声，两块黄色之物由竖变横，托着飞刀向高三娘子撞去。 从风声听来，这飞撞之力甚是凌厉，高三娘子双手齐伸，抓住了两块黄色之物，只觉双臂震得发痛，上半身尽皆酸麻，低头看时，不由得倒抽一口凉气，托着飞刀的黄色之物，正是那两块追魂夺命的赏善罚恶铜牌。 她早就听人说过善恶二使的规矩，只要伸手接了他二人交来的铜牌，就算是答允赴侠客岛之宴，再也不能推托。霎时之间，她脸上更无半分血色，身子也不由自主地微微发抖，干笑道：“哈哈，要我……我……我……我去侠客岛……喝……腊八……粥……”声音苦涩不堪，旁人听着都不禁代她难受。 张三仍是笑嘻嘻地道：“贝先生，你们安排下机关，骗我三弟来冒充帮主。他是个忠厚老实之人，不免上当。我张三、李四却不忠厚老实了。我们来邀客人，岂有不查个明内的？倘若邀错了人，闹下天大的笑话，张三、李四颜面何存？长乐帮帮主这个正主儿，我们早查得清清楚楚，倒花了不少力气，已找了来放在这里。兄弟，咱们请正主儿下来，好不好？”李四道：“不错，该当请他下来。”伸手抓住两张圆凳，呼的一声，向屋顶掷了上去。 只听得轰隆一声响，屋顶登时撞出了一个大洞，泥沙纷落之中，挟着一团物事掉了下来，砰的一声，摔在筵席之前。 群豪不约而同地向旁避了几步，只见从屋顶摔下来的竟然是一个人。这人缩成一团，蜷伏于地。 李四左手食指点出，嗤嗤声响，解开了那人的穴道。那人便慢慢站起身来，伸手揉眼，茫然四顾。 众人齐声惊呼，有的说：“他，他！”有的说：“怎……怎么……”有的说：“怪……怪了！”众人见到李四凌虚解穴，以指风撞击数尺外旁人的穴道，这等高深的武功向来只是耳闻，从未目睹，人人早已惊骇无已，又见那人五官面目宛然便又是一个石破天，只是全身绫罗，服饰华丽，更感诧异。 只听那人颤声道：“你……你们又要对我怎样？” 张三笑道：“石帮主，你躲在扬州妓院之中，数月来埋头不出，艳福无边。贝先生他们到处寻你不着，只得另外找了个人来冒充你做帮主。但你想瞒过侠客岛使者的耳目，可没这么容易了。我们来请你去喝腊八粥，你去是不去？”说着从袖中取出两块铜牌，托在手中。 那少年脸现惧色，急退两步，颤声道：“我……我当然木去。我干吗……干吗要去？” 石破天奇道：“大哥，这……这到底是怎么回事？” 张三笑道：“三弟，你瞧这人相貌跟你像不像？长乐帮奉他为帮主，本是要他来接铜牌的，可是这人怕死，悄悄躲了起来，贝先生他们无可奈何，便骗了你来顶替他做帮主。可是你大哥、二哿还是将他揪了出来，叫你做不成氏乐帮的帮主，你怪不怪我？” 石破天摇摇头，目不转睛地瞧着那人，过了半晌，说道：“妈妈、爹爹、丁丁当当、贝先生，我……我早说你们认错了人，我不是他，他……他才是真的。” 闵柔抢上一步，颤声道：“你……你是玉儿？”那人点了点头，道：“妈，爹，你们都在这里。” 白万剑踏上一步，森然道：“你还认得我吗？”那人低下了头，抱拳行礼，说道：“白师叔，众……众位师叔，也都来了。”白万剑嘿嘿冷笑，道：“我们都来了。” 贝海石皱眉道：“这两位容貌相似，身材年岁又是一样，到底哪一位是本帮的帮主，我可认不出来，这当真是天下之大，无奇不有。你……你才是石帮主，是不是？”那人点了点头。贝海石道：“这些日子中，帮主却又到了何
