"Sister, besides the three eunuchs, can you help me kill a few more people?"
Because she was wearing a bamboo hat and couldn't see her expression clearly, the rapier girl asked me coldly: "Who do you want to kill?"
I immediately named three people.
Before the rapier girl could say anything, the man on the side immediately said: "You kid, don't push yourself too far. We promised to help you get rid of three opponents. We have already repaid Silver Fox's debt of gratitude in excess."
"I know that, you are some good guys! Don't you guys, Brother Hunshui Pao, usually accept jobs from outside? Don't worry about the price, I can afford it!"
The middle-aged man grinned: "Okay, boy, you know we are in troubled waters. I didn't expect you to know our brother Pao very well at such a young age."
In fact, regarding Pao Gehui, very few people really know them now. Their internal ranking from high to low is, "Benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom and trust, fortune, prestige, wisdom and peace."
Including the rapier girl, I speculate that these people in front of me should belong to the wise or mighty generation.
The highest-ranking person in Sichuan Paoge is called "Master Duo", followed by the sage master, the third master, and the hall master. In the past, Paoge would often arrange ten rows of chairs at meetings. The higher the status, the farther the row of chairs would be.
The helmsman always sits in the first row, the helmsman sits in the golden chair, the second row of chairs must be empty, the third row is for the master to sit, and the seat is carried by a soft person, then the fourth row is empty, and the fifth row is occupied by The second gentleman is sitting on the dragon and tiger stool.
The hall masters in the sixth row sat on rosewood chairs, the seventh row was empty, and the eighth and ninth rows were filled with middle- and low-level figures in the guild, sitting on ordinary chairs.
Brother Yao sits in the tenth row. Although Brother Yao sits at the end, Brother Yao has a great social status and energy. In the past, people often dared to offend the local hall master but did not dare to offend Brother Yao.
Why are the second, fourth and seventh rows empty and never occupied? There is a reason for this.
Because the pao brothers worship the second master Guan, the second row of seats is always reserved for the second master, and no living person dares to sit there.
The fourth and seventh rows were also used to seat people in the earliest times. However, it is said that traitors often appeared in the fourth and seventh rows in the past, so at the end of Qianlong's reign, the Pao Gehui canceled the fourth and seventh rows. If you go to Sichuan now, careful people will find that some hotels or KTV private rooms do not have the fourth and seventh rooms. That is because the boss has a Paoge background.
The slogan that Brother Pao used to shout was "Don't torture ordinary people, don't eat poor people, don't harm scholars." In the past, whenever someone broke the rules, such as bullying ordinary people and robbing women, they had to kneel in front of the hall and accept "three swords" Six holes” penalty.
The specific method is to let a naive child draw circles with chalk on the person who made the mistake, and stab him with a knife wherever he draws. If three circles are drawn on the legs and arms, it will be fine, and the person will survive afterwards. If a child is naughty and draws a circle on someone's forehead, they will definitely die.
Many experts say that Brother Pao values benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom and trust, and does not accept low-level people to join them. This is not true.
At its peak, the total number of members of the Pao Brother Society in the country exceeded ten million. It is impossible to say that there were no members of the Lower Ninth Class among them. It was just that the higher-ups turned a blind eye. However, there was only one sect among the Lower Ninth Class that could never join the Pao Brother Society. That's the barber.
In the 1970s and 1980s, taking Chengdu as an example, there was an interesting phenomenon: I could not find a barber shop in the whole city. When my hair grew long, it was often done by family members or neighbors.
At that time, no one dared to openly open a barber shop there. If Mr. Tony lived in that era, he would be dragged out by Brother Pao and beaten to death.
The reason behind this scene is very simple. After the Manchus entered the customs, barbers shaved the heads of Han people and left them with big braids, so Brother Pao hated this profession very much.
After the end of the Anti-Japanese War, the attitude of the superiors toward Pao Ge was "disband on the spot and surrender the guns without any blame." However, due to an incident that happened in Chengdu in 1950, the superiors' attitude towards the Pao Ge Association changed and became "immediately disband." Liquidation, Resisting Arrest”.
