"Two yellow orioles singing green willows" Before I could understand why the middle-aged man had such a big reaction, the middle-aged man in brocade had already stood up, looked at us and whispered a poem.
I don't know why the middle-aged man in brocade suddenly chanted such a poem, and I couldn't help but be stunned.
And Lin Jingru and Leng Lingshuang had obviously never heard this poem, so they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at me.
Seeing that the three of us didn't speak for a while, the middle-aged man in brocade showed a look of surprise on his face, and after being stunned for a while, the middle-aged man in brocade still looked at us, and repeated, "Two yellow orioles singing green willows" I looked at the middle-aged man in brocade clothes, who didn't seem to be chanting casually, but as if it meant something, and I couldn't help but move in my heart, and whispered, "A line of egrets go to the sky." ” The line of egrets I chanted in the blue sky was the next sentence of the two yellow orioles singing green willows.
Although my voice was soft, the middle-aged man in brocade clothes was happy when he heard it, and after taking a look at us, he immediately walked out of the wine shop and walked towards us.
"Brother, what's the matter" Leng Lingshuang was naturally alert, and when she saw the middle-aged man in brocade walking towards us for no reason, she couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
But the middle-aged man in brocade didn't speak, just walked past me quickly, I didn't know why, I was slightly stunned, but there was already a note in my hand.
"Brother" When I asked again, the middle-aged man in brocade had already crossed the bridge, turned into the crowd and disappeared.
Lin Jingru and Leng Lingshuang and I all felt very strange, I unfolded the note handed to me by the young man in brocade, and looked at the lamp, but found that there were only six words written on the note, three watches, Yanbo Pavilion.
The inscription is not a name, but it seems to be a pattern, and the picture on the pattern seems to be nine cloth bags.
"Beggar Gang" Lin Jingru and I couldn't see what this note meant, but when Leng Lingshuang saw it, she couldn't help but take a deep breath and watched me and Lin Jingru spit out two words.
"The Beggar Gang" "Let's sit down over there."
Seeing me and Lin Jingru, she was surprised, but Leng Lingshuang had a solemn face.
After nodding at us, Leng Lingshuang didn't say much, but directly led us to sit down in a secluded place in a deserted wine shop in front of the door.
After ordering a few random dishes of wine and food, I couldn't wait to look at Leng Lingshuang and asked, "You said that the middle-aged man in brocade just now was from the beggar gang."
"Not bad."
"That person is so well dressed, how can he be a member of the beggar gang" As soon as Leng Lingshuang nodded, Lin Jingru couldn't help but wonder.
"The beggar gang is divided into two factions, clean clothes and dirty clothes, just now the middle-aged man in brocade clothes wants to be a disciple of the clean clothes faction in the beggar gang, and he is specifically responsible for helping the inner business."
Leng Lingshuang replied.
"Why, don't the beggars make a living by begging, how can there still be people doing business?"
asked Lin Jingru curiously.
"Generally, people in the rivers and lakes think that the beggar gang lives by begging, but the beggar gang is the largest gang in the world, with a large population and all over the world.
"I see."
I groaned slightly, looked at Leng Lingshuang and asked, "Did you look at the mark on the paper before you decided that the person was a disciple of the Beggar Gang?"
"That bag is the mark unique to the beggars."
Leng Lingshuang looked at me and said, "Those nine cloth bags mean that they are the edicts handed down by the nine bags of elders of the beggar gang. ” "Is the beggar gang a cloth bag to show their dignity and inferiority" I thought of the description in the martial arts book I read since I was a child, and I couldn't help but ask.
"Not bad."
Leng Lingshuang looked at me and said solemnly, "The beggars use cloth bags to show their dignity.
Only those who have made great contributions can get one more cloth bag, and it is not easy for ordinary disciples to get four cloth bags, and now the entire beggar gang, there are nine cloth bags, and there is only one person in the nine bags of elder Sun Changlu, the status in the gang is not under the gang leader, generally the nine bags of elders and the gang leader will not personally give orders, the two factions of clean clothes and dirty clothes in the gang do their own things, do not see each other, unless something big happens, the gang leader or the nine bags of elders will pass down the order, summon the status of the disciples in the gang to meet. ” "So something big happened to the beggar gang, so why did the beggar gang pass the edict to the husband," Lin Jingru glanced at me and reacted, "Do they think that the husband is also a member of the beggar gang." ” "Possibly."
I touched my nose and smiled embarrassedly, "Maybe the two lines of poetry I inadvertently matched were just the code words when they met with the high-ranking disciples in the gang." ” "Yes, maybe the beggar in dirty clothes at the beginning, it was precisely because he saw the three of us eating and walking, wandering unruly, and mistakenly thought that we were from the beggar gang, so he whispered that code intentionally or unintentionally."
Leng Lingshuang nodded.
"Looks like they're really mistaken."
Lin Jingru looked at me and smiled, "Husband, let you not eat while walking, but you didn't listen, and you pulled us along, which is good, people think you are a beggar disciple." ” After laughing, Lin Jingru said to herself curiously, "I don't know what the beggar gang wants to discuss with the disciples this time."
I was already full of curiosity about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and when I heard Lin Jingru say this, I couldn't help but feel a little tempted, and couldn't help but say, "Why don't we go and see?"
"No, we have mistakenly accepted the order, and we have already committed a taboo."
But Leng Lingshuang immediately shook his head and said, "If we listen to other people's secrets again, if they find out, we are not disciples of the Beggar Gang, then the consequences will be very serious." ” After a pause, Leng Lingshuang looked at me and said seriously, "The beggar gang disciples are all over the world, and there are endless talented people.
For the people in the rivers and lakes, they would rather offend the court than the beggars. ” "Then let's listen to Sister Ling Shuang, forget it."
Hearing Leng Lingshuang say something serious, Lin Jingru immediately said to me as well, but there was a slight disappointment in her expression.
I know that Lin Jingru is also full of curiosity about this matter, although I am worried about my safety, I persuaded me not to go, but I still want to go and see it, seeing Lin Jingru's expression, I can't help but say, "Or let's go and watch it secretly, don't show up."
Maybe what they're discussing may or may not have something to do with us."
Originally, Leng Lingshuang was about to refuse, but when she heard my last sentence, Leng Lingshuang saw me and Lin Jingru looking interested, but she still nodded.
Seeing Leng Lingshuang nodding, Lin Jingru and I were very happy in our hearts, and suddenly felt that the ordinary wine and food on the table could also be saved.
Because even Leng Lingshuang didn't know where the Yanbo Pavilion was located, he called the bartender to inquire, and after asking, he learned that the Yanbo Pavilion was also a famous scenery in Qingyang, located on the shore of Yanbo Lake thirty miles outside the western suburbs of Qingyang City.
Qingyang has little water, and the area of Yanbo Lake is actually not wide, but according to the bartender, if it is to Yanbo Pavilion in the morning, when the sun rises in the east, there is a morning glow, and the clouds and mist on Yanbo Lake are shrouded, and it is also a meteorological situation at a glance, which is magnificent, so there are also many literati and scholars, who will go to Yanbo Pavilion in the early morning to enjoy the beautiful scenery, but that place is quite desolate, and few people go at night and during the day.
Leng Lingshuang and I pretended to go to watch the release, and after asking the route to go, we went out of the wine shop, because the distance was long, and we were afraid of being discovered by the beggars when we went late, so the three of us decided to go early, first find a place to hide, and then see what the beggars were trying to do.

After going out of the wine shop, all the way to the west, after going out of the city, the grass really fell all the way, the sound of insects and pigs was endless, and it slowly became desolate, but at that time, the moon was clear, the wind was high and the clouds were light, and there were Lin Jingru and Leng Lingshuang as companions, but they did not feel lonely at all.
And after walking into the wilderness, I immediately started the trick of tipping into the air, with Leng Lingshuang and Lin Jingru, like a breeze swept over the tip of the grass.
After a while, the sound of waves was faintly heard in my ears.
When he got closer, a lake with smoke rising appeared in his eyes.
"That's the Yanbo Pavilion."
I stopped, and Lin Jingru saw a lonely wooden pavilion by the lake.
"It's such a broken pavilion."
I saw that the wooden pavilion was lonely and dilapidated, far from the places of interest I imagined, and I couldn't help but say.
"If the Yanbo Pavilion is luxurious and splendid, it is incompatible with this scene."
Leng Lingshuang glanced at it, but said to me.
I was stunned for a moment, but when I looked at it again, I found that what Leng Lingshuang said was indeed very reasonable, looking at it, the Yanbo Lake was cold and cold, the withered grass and withered reeds, a bleak scene, just like a landscape and light ink painting, the dilapidated Yanbo Pavilion was indeed very decorated.
Although the Yanbo Pavilion is not large, the surrounding lake shore is quite flat, just like a natural square, during which most of the soil is washed away by the river, revealing a piece of craggy and non-angular river stones.
"Looks like we're just going to hide over there."
I looked at it, and it seemed that there was only a dense reed slope in the distance of Yanbo Pavilion where people could be hidden, so I said to Leng Lingshuang and Lin Jingru.
"Okay."
Leng Lingshuang is a master of concealing his figure, and when he saw that the dirt slope was not towering, the reeds on the soil slope were connected with the reeds in a radius of more than ten miles around, even if he was discovered, it was quite convenient to escape in the dark, so he immediately nodded.
"Chirp coo", just walked into the dirt slope, we have heard several sound of river birds chirping, but did not see the river birds flying frightened, I and Leng Lingshuang, Lin Jingru was strange, but heard a majestic voice, "the moon on the willow tops" “。”
The three of us chuckled in our hearts, and when we looked at the place where we came from, we saw a middle-aged beggar in rags, with hair like iron, and a very powerful look, lying on the ground, looking at us with blazing eyes.
"I didn't expect that some of the beggars would have arrived an hour or two earlier."
Leng Lingshuang and Lin Jingru and I couldn't help but look at each other, and after glancing at each other, I thought to myself that since I came, I couldn't leave as if I had nothing to do, so I could only bite the bullet.
"It's about after dusk."
"Sure enough, it's the brother who helped clean clothes, but it came early."
After hearing my words, the middle-aged beggar didn't let me say the other line of poetry, but nodded, looked at us and asked, "Who are you disciples?"
"Me."
Hearing his words, I couldn't help but feel a sinking in my heart, I didn't know anyone in the beggar gang, so I couldn't help but hesitate to turn my head to look at Leng Lingshuang.
"Forget it, we have very little contact with our dirty clothes and clean clothes, and it doesn't matter if we recognize them or not."
But to my relief, the middle-aged beggar with a beard like iron saw that I hesitated, but he didn't ask, but said to himself, as if to say to us, "I just don't know that Elder Sun has summoned more than three bags of disciples to come and discuss what is going on." ” "More than three bags of disciples" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, but after saying that, the middle-aged beggar closed his eyes slightly, as if he didn't pay attention to us anymore.
And Leng Lingshuang and I took a closer look, but found that the middle-aged beggar with iron hair was actually hanging seven cloth bags on his body.
Before this, Leng Lingshuang had already told me that the Nine Bags Elder was only Sun Changlu, and the disciples with more than Seven Bags were also of extremely high status, but there were only a dozen people.
It can be seen that the middle-aged beggar in front of him should also be a high-status figure in the beggar gang.
After discovering this, Leng Lingshuang and Lin Jingru and I glanced at each other, and I didn't dare to say much, so I had to choose a dry and sheltered place on the mound and sit down.
After a long time, when Lin Jingru and I were already feeling a little impatient, there was a faint sound of footsteps in our ears.
In the clear moonlight, there were some beggars arriving one after another.
It was probably close to the third watch at this time, and in a short time, nearly 100 beggars and disciples of the Pure Clothes Sect Gang wearing various costumes had already arrived.
Leng Lingshuang and I looked at each other, and sure enough, just as the middle-aged beggar lying on the edge of the mound said, those disciples of the Dirty Clothes Sect who arrived also had more than three cloth bags on their bodies.
After the beggar gang disciples who arrived first arrived, they did not talk noisily, and they all sat quietly on the ground, while more than a dozen six-bag beggars sat in the forefront, each holding a bamboo cane, knocking on the mountain rock in front of them.
"It's almost time.
Let's go.
When the voice sounded, the middle-aged beggar with iron hair who had been closing his eyes and not moving, suddenly opened his eyes and said to us with a blazing gaze.
After saying that, the middle-aged beggar stood up and strode out.
The three of us glanced at each other, and we could only follow him and walk out quickly.
As soon as "Elder Peng" saw the middle-aged beggar walk out, he saw his beggar disciples all folded their hands and bowed.
We couldn't help but be taken aback when we heard what they called.
It turned out that the middle-aged beggar with iron hair was also a high-ranking elder in the beggar gang.
We suppressed the shock in our hearts and peeked in, only to see that the beggar and the middle-aged man in brocade clothes that we had seen before were among the beggars, and they all saw us, but they still showed surprise when they saw us and Elder Peng appear together.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk" at this time, the sound of the cane sounded three times and then suddenly stopped, the moon was in the middle of the sky, it was already the third watch.
We were wondering who was in charge next, but we all heard someone among the beggar gang disciples shouting, "Elder Sun, Elder Mu, and Elder Chang have arrived. ” All the beggar disciples turned their heads when they heard this, and when I looked over it, I saw an old beggar with a gray beard in front and two gray-haired beggars in the back.
The old beggar, whose hair was all white and his face was wrinkled, had nine cloth bags hanging on his back, and it was obviously Elder Sun of the Nine Bags.
The two elderly beggars behind him were carrying seven sacks, but their arms and bodies were wrapped in white yarn, in which there was a faint hint of blood, and they had to be supported by the old beggar beside him when they walked, and they were obviously not lightly injured.
"Elder Mu" I was in shock, but the beggar disciple couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
Even Elder Peng in front of me couldn't help but take a deep breath and frown.
The people in the beggar gang obviously didn't know why Elder Namu was so seriously injured, but Elder Sun and the other three didn't say much, and in a moment they walked to the beggar gang and stood still, and after Elder Sun and the other three stood still in front of everyone, all the people saw that Elder Sun and the other three were actually wrapped in a black veil on their hands.
Everyone in the beggar gang was stunned for a moment, but at this moment, Elder Sun, who had white hair, had already said loudly, "Brothers, the sky is going to be a catastrophe, and our Qiao gang leader has returned to heaven in Jiankang Mansion."
As soon as Elder Sun said this, all the beggars were silent, and after being stunned, all the beggars sitting cross-legged on the ground couldn't help but stand up and shouted, "What?"
"How did the gang leader return to heaven" Among them, the voices of Elder Peng and the others in front of me seemed to be the most powerful, and they overwhelmed countless incredible exclamations for a while, and they spread far away on the river.
Elder Peng's identity was very lofty, and as soon as his voice sounded, although others were still excited, their exclamations were suppressed, and they all just looked at Elder Sun and the others who were standing in front of everyone, waiting for an answer.
Seeing Elder Peng, Elder Sun nodded slightly, and after nodding, Elder Sun took a deep breath and said loudly, "The gang leader said that Qian, Elder Mu and others ambushed the secret envoy of the dog thief Wei Yankang in Jiankang, but they were ambushed by the annihilators, and the gang leader took the lead and protected the brothers to break through, but he was seriously injured and died. ” After Elder Sun's words disappeared, the group of beggars were silent again, and the "dog thief Wei Kang" suddenly opened his mouth and screamed, fell to the ground, and the beggars immediately beat their chests and feet, and howled and cried.
"Gang Master Qiao, I will definitely kill people for you" Elder Peng did not cry bitterly, but the corners of his eyes were already cracked, and he roared, and the sound rolled out like thunder.
In the midst of the surging beggars, I didn't expect that the first news I heard at this time was actually the death of the leader of the beggar gang, and I couldn't help but ask in Leng Lingshuang's ear, "Who is Wei Yankang?"
"Wei Yankang is the privy envoy of the Ministry of Military Aircraft, and the senior official of Yipin."
Leng Lingshuang's face was also shocked.
"Even if he is a big official, how can the people in the beggar gang say that he is a dog thief, and what is the matter with the secret envoy he sent?"
I took a deep breath, and that question just came to my mind, but Elder Sun clapped his hands three times, and the sobbing and sorrowful voices of the beggars slowly subsided.
