More than a year after the Ecstasy Palace became famous overnight, a news suddenly spread in the world: Before Wang Lianhua and Shen Lang bought a boat to go to sea, they had been to Li Garden, and they would write the essence of their life and all kinds of untold secrets. The Secret Book of Lianhua was given to Li Xunhuan, hoping that he would keep it safe for him.But in the past two years, Li Xunhuan has been depressed and depraved, wandering around in the place of fireworks, and later he often stays in the palace of ecstasy, with the owner of the palace of ecstasy, letting his cousin who is engaged to marry stay alone in the vacant room, washing her face with tears, and finally even writing "The Secret Book of Lianhua" It was also given to Palace Master Ecstasy as a gift to please the beauty.

When this news was spread in the rivers and lakes, it was just when the spring was warm and the peach blossoms in the yard were in full bloom. I took a hoe and dug a hole under the peach tree, buried the newly brewed peach blossom stuffing in it, and Carefully cover with soil.As the breeze blows, pieces of pink petals fall, like a peach blossom rain.

I stood in the rain of flowers, holding the hoe in my arms, feeling a little dazed, and felt that this scene seemed familiar, but there was another person beside me at the beginning, but now that person did not know where he was.

"What are you thinking?" Ah Fei's voice sounded behind me, the voice was deep and magnetic, and the youthful youthfulness had faded away.

I looked back at him, with a hint of loneliness in my smile: "Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, Xiao San'er has been gone for almost two years."

He gently wrapped his arms around my shoulders, looked up at the flying petals with me, and said lightly: "He will come back, believe me."

"Yeah." I nodded, "This is his home."

When the peach blossoms had long since faded and the lotus flowers in the pond in the garden of Shen’s house had produced huge flower buds and were about to bloom, the air in the south of the Yangtze River was full of water vapor, making it more uncomfortable to stay indoors, so I made a pot of tea. Sitting in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, looking through the latest information that Ye Ying just sent.

The hot and humid summer in the south is a veritable "bitter summer" for Xiaoha's rich fur. At this moment, he is lying listlessly at my feet, dozing off with his eyes closed.

Ever since I asked Ye Ying to release the news that "the secret book of Lianhua is in the hands of the ecstasy palace master", I have been paying close attention to all kinds of changes in the Jianghu, and have all the departments step up careful preparations to prevent accidental mutations.But I didn't expect that in the past two months, the rivers and lakes have been peaceful. Although occasionally some people asked half-truths and half-truths about the whereabouts of "The Secret Book of Lianhua" while drunk, no one really took action for it.

I supported my head with one hand, flipping through the documents on the table with the other, feeling a little upset.

From the day when Ecstasy Palace became famous, I have always been on guard against the actions of my opponents in the dark, but they seem to have forgotten what they have done, or they have not connected this Ecstasy Palace with that Ecstasy Palace at all. Together...there has been no movement.

I released the news of "The Secret Book of Lianhua", hoping to stir up waves in the Jianghu. Those who planned to get the treasure of the Palace of Ecstasy at the beginning would not allow the essence of Lianhuazi's life to fall into the hands of others, as long as they take action , I hope to find a flaw to break through the deadlock.

However, nothing happened.

This unusual calm made me feel uneasy, but I was helpless.

"On the [-]rd of this month, Master Qingkong, the head of the Emei Sect, had her [-]th birthday. The heads of various factions went up to the mountain to celebrate the birthday. Shaolin Wudang also sent the highly virtuous Master Xinmei and Taoist Zhang Tianxing to congratulate. The guests and hosts had a great time. "

"On the fifth day of this month, Lu Feng, Marquis Wen of Yinji, challenged the wind and rain to hammer Xiangsong, seriously injured Xiangsong, and won."

"On the tenth day of this month, the iron sword Guo Songyang challenged the magic sword Bai Tianyu and won."

"On the fifteenth day of this month, Dongfang Daming, the lord of the Nightless City of Riyue Island, took a tenth concubine at home, named Lu Zhu, and stayed overnight."

"On the night of the [-]th of this month, someone saw Grandma Hu appearing at the Yellow Crane Tower by the Han River, chatting and laughing with a young man, sitting on the roof and drinking together until dawn."

"On the [-]th of this month, Li Tianwang got drunk and made trouble in a restaurant in Weifang, Shandong, his hometown. He broke a leg of an ordinary passing businessman, threw a piece of silver and walked away."

"On the 22nd of this month, the [-]th birthday of the only son of Chufeng Mountain Villa in Hangzhou, the Feng family made a big deal of it, and hosted more than a hundred tables of guests. People from the martial arts came to congratulate."

……

"On the 27th of this month, Gao Xingkong, the head of the money gang, led the gang to encircle and suppress the five poisons in Lingnan, and wiped them all out."

I stared at the last line of words on the pamphlet Ye Ying sent for a long time.

In the second half of "Sentimental Swordsman Ruthless Sword" by Gu Long, it was mentioned that "Shangguan Jinhong made a comeback after being silent for many years, recruited seventeen masters in the weapon spectrum, and formed the Money Gang. They were invincible in two years of civil war. He was rampant, everyone in the rivers and lakes looked at him, and his momentum was so strong that he even surpassed the beggars." Then Shangguan Jin Hong met Li Xun Huan, and finally died at the hands of Li Xun Huan.

If it is deduced from this, the money gang should appear ten years later, but I did not expect that in my time and space, the name of the "money gang" has already appeared now.

I thought of the gold and copper coin found under Su Qinghong Yuanba's carriage, and the token of love in Yao Fenglan's hand. Could those two special gold copper coin-shaped accessories have anything to do with the Money Gang?

I couldn't help being taken aback by my own associations.

According to the setting in the original work of Gu Long Dashen, Shangguan Feihong possesses peerless martial arts, and a pair of dragon and phoenix double rings in his hands ranks second in Bai Xiaosheng's weapon spectrum; die.Single-handedly created the "Money Gang", the most famous, powerful, and financially powerful "Money Gang" in the arena at that time, with the intention of annexing all other factions in the arena and dominating the martial arts world.He has won over many masters to his subordinates and willingly used him, which shows that he has a unique personality charm, and he can be called a generation of heroes.

However, during the period of time when I stepped into the arena, the name of the Money Gang was not well-known, and even I myself only knew of its existence after reading this briefing today.

I decided to ask Ye Ying for clarification.

When I saw Ye Ying, he was revising the mechanical drawing of the Ecstasy Palace, because I required that the layout design of the Ecstasy Palace must be changed every year, and always maintain a sense of freshness and mystery, so as not to make the guests feel aesthetically tired, although the design ideas are all made by I drafted it, but the specific implementation required him to complete it, which often made him feel overwhelmed.

He was sweating all over his head, and after listening to my question, he wiped his hands and said with a smile: "Master, this money gang has appeared three or four years ago, but it's small and insignificant. Small gangs are like crucian carp crossing the river. Some of them disappeared after only a year or a half. Unexpectedly, they survived half-dead. A year ago, they suddenly seemed to have a chicken blood, and began to recruit more gang members. A person with little martial arts and high strength, the gang rules are extremely strict, but rewards and punishments are clearly defined, and they are managed in an orderly manner."

"Shangguan Jinhong, the leader of the Money Gang, no one has seen him with his own eyes except for the closest people." Ye Ying continued: "His five rudder masters of gold, wood, water, fire and earth are all skilled in martial arts and resourceful. The affairs of the central government are arranged by these five people according to Shangguan Jinhong's instructions. Although they have recruited a lot of people in the past year, they have not made any major moves. A big deal."

"Do you know the origin of Shangguan Jinhong?" I asked.

Ye Ying shook his head: "Some people in the world say that he is an old man in his 50s, others say that he is a handsome man in his 30s, and others say that he is actually a beautiful lady, but only five people have actually seen him. Helmsman, and these people will never reveal a little bit to the outside world."

"Have any of these people visited the Palace of Ecstasy for recreation?" I thought for a while and asked again.

Ye Ying sighed: "The Qiang Gang has very strict rules, one of which is that if you make a mistake because of a woman, you will be executed according to the gang rules. Because the punishment is too severe, the Qiang Gang rarely goes to the Fireworks and Willow Lane to have fun. "

I wondered: "Food and sex, sex. The gang rules of this money gang are even stricter than the military discipline, and there are still people willing to join?"

"This is Shangguan Jinhong's brilliance." Ye Ying said: "The rewards and punishments are clear, and the bonuses are high, so naturally some people are willing to follow. As the saying goes, money can turn ghosts."

"No wonder it is called the Money Gang." I laughed and said, "It seems that Shangguan Jinhong not only understands the magic power of money very well, but also understands the weakness of human nature, and can use it to firmly grasp people's hearts in his hands."

Ye Ying looked at me with a smile, and said: "My subordinates feel that the palace master's understanding and use of money is not inferior to that of Shangguan Jinhong, and the actions of the two of you are similar."

I laughed and said: "So he established the money gang, and I built a gold selling cave, which is also a good contrast."

Before leaving, I told Ye Ying ten thousand times: "If there is any new trend in the future, please remember to tell me immediately."

"Why does the Palace Master attach so much importance to this new gang?" Ye Ying asked strangely.

"I always feel that this money gang is a bit strange," I said, "and Shangguan Jinhong is so mysterious, he is by no means an ordinary person, so it's better to be on guard." I can't tell you, I've been spoiled in advance, right?

"Yes." Ye Ying said.

A few more days passed without any disturbance, and the day was sunny and sunny. I called A Fei to sit down in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, took out a wine jug with a mysterious and proud face, and asked him: "Guess what is in it?" What?"

He looked at me expressionlessly: "Peach Blossom Noodles."

"How did you guess that?!" I shouted angrily, holding my head.

There was a look of narrowness on his face: "You can smell the aroma of wine from a long distance away, and it's not that I have a nose problem."

"Really?" I said happily, "Is it really so fragrant? I smell it every day, but I don't feel it anymore!"

He nodded: "That's the smell. The last time I smelled it was spring more than three years ago."

I nodded melancholy: "Yeah, time flies so fast, and it has been more than three years in a blink of an eye. I always feel that the last time I drank peach blossom wine with you seems to be yesterday. At that time, the master was still there, and the brother was still there." , Xiao Hua is still there, and Xiao San'er is still there..."

He reached out to take the jug in my hand, filled two wine glasses, and handed me one: "I'm still here."

I looked at his dark eyes, straight nose, and resolute lips, and suddenly realized that he was no longer that youthful boy, but a tall man with firm and deep eyes.

This realization made my heart beat faster inexplicably, and my cheeks became hot. I couldn't help but take the wine glass in his hand, bowed my head, and prepared to drink it all in one gulp.

At this moment, the wind blew up, and a silver light rolled towards my hand. A clear and slightly hoarse male voice laughed and said, "You two want to have such a good wine?"
