After listening to Huang Cuttlefish's advice, Tian Shile finally nodded seriously this time.
Sighing: "Oh! I have learned a lot from the experience, and I no longer dare to dream about the big dream of Spring and Autumn. Now, I understand, brother, you see clearly. What a reputation, what status, go to hell! Live!" It’s more important than anything else! People like us who have no ability or background are like ants on the ground. No matter how hard we try, we can’t crawl far. It’s better to live a happy life day by day, which is more practical than anything else.”
Yellow Cuttlefish clapped his hands and praised: "Well said! With this kind of consciousness, you have not suffered in vain. This big man has the scenery of a big man, and the little man has the way of life of a little man. These days, if you live with your tail between your legs, it's not good. No. Moreover, the land in Haicheng is barren and the people are poor, and there are not many capable people. Brother, you also have real skills. When you get there and work hard, you can make a name for yourself. Maybe I will go there again in the future. I'm relying on you."
Huang Cuttlefish's words made Tian Shile very high-spirited. Unconsciously, he boasted again: "That's right. My Tiger and Leopard Boxing is also a hard skill that I have practiced for more than 20 years. It is not much worse than these amazing catchers in Qicheng. If I become really prosperous in the future, I will definitely forget I can’t stand you. When the time comes, when we brothers get together again, we will definitely drink him for three more days and three nights!"
Yellow Cuttlefish smiled and said: "Okay, I'll wait for that day! However, Haicheng is remote after all, far away from official circles. If you have any difficulties there, feel free to write to me at any time. I can also help you with the operation here."
Tian Shile was so moved that he almost cried when he heard Huang Cuiyu's concern. He patted Huang Cuiyu on the shoulder: "Brother, you are still righteous! Brother, I am leaving soon. I will treat you generously today! Let's go, Fengyue Tower. Brother, please You give me a big meal!"
Yellow Cuttlefish laughed: "How loyal! Fengyue Tower is a great place! Let's go!"
The two immediately put their arms around each other and walked towards Fengyue Tower.
Walking onto the bustling street, the two of them laughed and laughed, and the previous sense of crisis had been forgotten.
At this time, an old man walked across the street. The old man has a gray beard, sword-shaped eyebrows and eagle eyes. He looks like he is in his seventies, his back is as straight as a pine tree, and his body is as strong as a spear.
When passing by the two of them, the old man suddenly raised his arm and inadvertently hit Tian Shile's heart with his finger. The old man's hand speed was so fast that no one around him noticed. Even Tian Shile only felt that he had been touched on the shoulder by someone inadvertently. There was no difference at all, and he continued to talk and laugh.
In this way, the two took more than a hundred steps.
Tian Shile suddenly stopped!
Seeing that his face was red, his face began to twist in pain, his eyes widened, and large amounts of blood continued to pour out of his mouth.
In fear, Tian Shile clung to the yellow cuttlefish on the side! He tried to open his mouth wide to say something, but the gurgling blood forced him to make a whimpering sound that was difficult to swallow!
puff!
In the end, Tian Shile spurted out a large amount of blood, fell to the ground, and fell heavily to the dust!
The yellow cuttlefish's face was red and dumbfounded!
Xie Xu, who was following behind, hurriedly stepped forward to check. At this time, Tian Shile had already expired. I turned around and looked around, but there was no sign of the murderer.
Yellow Cuttlefish came back to his senses and chuckled: "I still haven't escaped! That's how the world is. At least, my brothers can still collect a body for you!"
Xie Xu returned to the Chief Police Department and informed Xue Yang about Tian Shile.
Xue Yang could only remain silent.
In a case like this, no results can be found even after investigation, and even if the results are found, there is no way to accuse the murderer. If the murderer is really questioned, it will probably only lead to more killings. In an era of strong power, kindness and anger are sometimes just burdens. After all, none of them can change the world.
…
Capture officer Zhao Liang led Luo Fan to the south dock of the city.
The Shuidang Lake Wharf in the south of the city connects the north-south trade routes and attracts many merchants all year round. All kinds of merchants traveling from north to south, selling salt, tea, grain, cloth, etc., have to disembark from here. Located on an important road, this place is a treasure.
Treasures will naturally attract fortune tellers. This pier alone is guarded by three gangs. They are, Tiger Claw Gang, Shuangdao Sect, and Huangyi Sect.
Jianghu people should be vain, and their food, clothing, entertainment and friends should not be shabby, and the expenses will naturally be high. No matter the black or white gang, they all have their own way of making money.
The underworld mostly goes to the third level, such as robbing, stealing, prostitution, gambling, kidnapping, and killing. There are both good and bad paths in Baidao. Good ones include escorting, running businesses, teaching apprentices, etc. There are also many bad things, such as forcibly collecting protection fees, setting up gambling and prostitution, and occupying mountains and becoming kings.
Shuidang Lake Pier is located in a key location, so it has naturally become a target in the eyes of the gangs in Flag City. Several gangs refused to give in to each other and fought for more than ten years, resulting in many deaths and injuries, but they still could not resolve it. Until three years ago, Xue Yang took the lead and let the three strongest companies manage it together.
Xue Yang divided the merchants who came and went into twenty-four categories. The three companies draw lots and share the tax equally. For example, the Tiger Claw Gang collects money from passers-by who sell salt. The tea seller passes by and returns to Shuangdaomen. If you are a merchant who buys and sells grain, you belong to the Yellow Clothes Sect.
So classified. Even the officials of the Tiandu Dynasty had to pay taxes when they wanted to cross the river. After these gangs received the money, they also had to pay monthly fees to Prince Wu's Mansion to ensure their survival.
Having said that, as the ruler of the world, why did the Tiandu Dynasty not manage businesses such as the docks, but instead allowed gangs to fight and seize them? Do you even have to pay money to the gang yourself? If so, wouldn't it be a big joke?
This is about the shortcomings left behind when the Tiandu Dynasty was established.
Back then, Li Yunfeng, the first Tiandu King of the Tiandu Dynasty, relied on his passion and the magical power of wind and thunder legs to finally overthrow the corrupt Jinwu Dynasty and establish a new dynasty after fourteen years. But at this time, the country was already riddled with holes and it was difficult for the people to survive.
However, because Li Yunfeng had to deal with powerful enemies several times in a row, his luck was so great that his vitality was exhausted. He has less than a month left to live. If the black and white alliance is forcibly eradicated at this time, even if it succeeds, the new dynasty will inevitably face the crisis of disintegration after his death.
With no choice, Li Yunfeng had no choice but to stabilize the black and white paths first in order to follow up. As a result, he and the Black and White Alliance signed the "Yuan Alliance Agreement" that will determine the future of the world!
According to the "Yuanmeng Agreement", the thirty-six cities in the world and the counties, official roads, etc. under the cities are managed by the Tiandu Dynasty. The Tiandu Dynasty is not allowed to interfere in any area involving the black and white gangs. Everything will be handled according to the "rules of the rivers and lakes"! Even if there is a conflict between the Tiandu Dynasty and the black and white gangs, they must abide by the rules of the world.
Yesterday, Luofan dared to casually chop Zhao Tao, Zhao Xue's sworn brother, because of the "Yuanmeng Agreement." Because Zhao Tao is a Jianghu person, he does not need to deal with it according to the laws of the dynasty. Even if Zhao Tao wants justice, he must ultimately follow the rules of black and white. According to the rules of the martial arts world, there is nothing wrong with robbing someone and getting injured.
in short. If the gangs belonging to the Black and White Dao engage in killing, stealing, robbing, etc., as long as it does not involve the people of the Tiandu Dynasty or the common people, it has no right to control it. And if the victims are people from the Tiandu Dynasty, then the matter must be handled according to the rules of the world. In this way, the rules of the world are very important.
So, what are the rules of this arena?
Then we have to mention the "Black and White Talisman" drawn up by Bai Shaojun and Du Feng, the leaders of the black and white alliances.
Twelve hundred years ago, the fairy age suddenly disappeared and everyone lost their memory. At this point, the world entered the age of martial arts. At that time, there were no morals and laws, so people fought with each other by force. After decades of struggle, the world has divided into two major forces: the Black Alliance and the White Alliance.
The black alliance became the underworld alliance, and the white alliance became the white alliance.
At that time, Bai Shaojun, the leader of the black alliance, and Du Feng, the leader of the white alliance, each formulated their own rules on the two days, respectively called: "Black Talisman Rules" and "White Talisman Rules".
The rules of the black talisman and the white talisman have some overlap and some differences.
For example, the first rule of both is: Tooth for tooth, those who kill will always be killed, and those who harm others will always be harmed.
The meaning is very simple. If someone kills someone else's relatives, it will be considered fair if they are killed by someone else's relatives. Those who hurt others can be hurt back by others in the same way!
But there are rules that are very different. For example, there is a rule in the underworld: if you kill one person, you will be punished; if you kill the entire clan, you will be silent! And the rules of Baidao are: whoever kills one person is avenged; whoever kills an entire clan is avenged together.
