Chapter forty-one encounter
When he turned around, he saw Qin Shuangying's face looked a little surprised. He even forgot to answer his own question. Wu Feng was also a little surprised. He turned his eyes to the stage and saw two young men fighting on the stage, which caused the audience who were watching the fun to cheer and applaud one after another.
Wufeng observed carefully and could have caused Qin Shuangying's surprise, which shows that there must be something special about it beyond her expectations. However, if the two men on this stage are not considered first-class experts in terms of kung fu, they can be considered as just a normal person at most.
The older man on the left was dressed in a short dress, his arms were exposed naked. Although it was this kind of weather, he also seemed energetic, his feet were extremely steady, and he was moving step by step. A pair of water-dividing spikes in his hand made the tiger feel windy, and it seemed that he had the upper hand. Although the young man on the right was at a disadvantage, he had no intention of retreating. A sharp iron knife was so tight that it was not airtight. The weapons of both sides collided and splashed sparks, and the scene was extremely fierce.
A few meters away from the two, a middle-aged man wearing a black long gown held a broken bone fan in his hand, and suddenly got together, paying attention to the competition between the two. It seemed that he was preparing to take action to separate the two at the most critical moment.
"Shuangying, what's wrong?" Wufeng looked at it for a while and couldn't see anything wrong. "This should be the son of the Boat Gang, right?"
"Well, they are the children of the Boat Gang. Maybe today is the Boat Gang on the turn. Look, the first big banner on the side of the station is painted with a tiger-faced bow, which is the symbol of the Boat Gang." Qin Shuangying answered at this time.
Wufeng looked up and saw that the first flag on the edge of the platform was indeed a green flag with a huge tiger-shaped bow embroidered on it. Especially the tiger-head embroidered workmanship was extremely exquisite, and it was even more lifelike under the rushing wind.
"I didn't pay attention to this, but I saw that the spurts and quick knives they used were all weapons that were used on the water surface, so I guessed that it was the boat gang. But I looked a little surprised at Frost Shadow. Is there anything wrong?" Wu Wufeng's voice lowered. After all, there were many people around here. If it was a little difficult to spread and let outsiders hear it, they might even cause unnecessary trouble.
"It's nothing, Shuangying just feels that the strength of this ship gang is a bit incorrect and the rumors." Qin Shuangying expressed her doubts.
“How to say it?”
"Brother, look, these two disciples should be ordinary disciples of the Boat Gang. Although both of them are not as good as the martial arts, a pair of ordinary disciples can have such a level, which shows that the strength of the Boat Gang is no longer the same as before. It should be said that it has reached a big step." Qin Shuangying was a little depressed, obviously because of his own sect's status in the martial arts world. Seeing that these third-rate sects are developing so fast, it really made second-rate sects like Xiang Xueshan sect feel heartbroken.
"Then could it be that the boat gang asked the disciples of other sects to pretend to be in order to lead his own store?" Wu Feng asked, scratching his head.
"It should be impossible. Although this disciple's martial arts skills are not very good, other sects outside generally have an impression, and it is difficult to impersonate it. And you see, the older young man's arms and face had dark and shiny skin, and his lower plate was steady, and he was so skillful in the water splitting. It should be the result of long-term water life, so it is impossible to impersonate it." Qin Shuangying not only knew the situation of various gangs, but also had a rare observation that was very meticulous.
"I don't think it's a big deal. I can make him fall to the ground in three or five rounds at most." Gu Mingxia, who had not spoken, said dissatisfied.
"Silly girl, what kind of identity are you? How can you fight with these rude men? I mean, from this we can see that the strength of the ship gang has improved greatly. No wonder I heard from the northwest that the ship gang has begun to steadily expand the water transportation business to the western part of Heshuo County. It seems that there is indeed capital for expansion." Qin Shuangying sighed softly and said, "How many people in your Gu family can catch up with the girls? I don't think there are more than ten people, but ordinary disciples of this ship gang have such strength, and there are more than a thousand disciples. Although it is not as great as a song, the real strength behind it can be seen."
On the one hand, Wufeng was a little surprised by the strength exposed by the ship gang, but this had nothing to do with him. On the contrary, Qin Shuangying's analysis, interpretation and comprehensive judgment ability of things showed refreshing him. He was considering whether Qin Shuangying's disaster prevention and escort position was a bit useless? Maybe she could play her role in some other aspects?
"Brother, brother," Seeing that Wufeng did not react to his words, he seemed a little distracted. Qin Shuangying screamed twice without reaction, and then gently pulled Wufeng's neck of clothes, "Did you hear what I said?"
"Well, it makes sense." Wufeng then came to his senses and thought for a while and said with a smile, "Maybe this is the original intention of the five sects to form an alliance in the name of this martial arts sect, to learn from their strengths and weaknesses, and to each achieve their needs. The Sunset Sect can use the power of these four sects to improve their status and gain greater benefits, while the Puhuaguan and the Qingyi Sect can use the inherent economic power of these three sects to help their sects get out of financial difficulties. As for the purpose of the Baisha Sect and the Ship Gang, it is simpler. With a certain economic foundation, it requires a certain strength to maintain and strengthen. Otherwise, if the sect without strength is backed up, the economic interests can last in this world where the strong prey on the weak will be a big question mark. This is a means to maintain good relations with the upper levels of the government and to develop and strengthen the military strength of their own sects."
Wufeng's words not only made the two girls around him look down upon him, but also caused the two girls to think deeply.
Especially Qin Shuangying was even more shocked. She looked at the guy in front of her with some jealousy. As the main disciple in charge of intelligence affairs in the Snow Mountain Sect, she was responsible for the collection, sorting and analysis of the entire martial arts situation in the Snow Mountain Sect before joining him. Even after joining him, she still learned about the situation in the martial arts world from time to time through various channels. What she is most proud of is her ability to analyze and judge complex things.
But this time, when she had only a vague framework for the purpose and significance of the five factions alliance, the guy in front of her was able to follow the clues with a few simple introductions. This made her admit that this guy stood out in such an extraordinary way in the chaotic situation of the empire.
The rise and fall of this lake actually has many similarities with the struggle in the imperial officialdom, many of which are even the continuation of the struggle in the officialdom. Qin Shuangying may not have really realized this, but Wufeng, who is in a high position, has already realized this sensitively after experiencing the assassination. After arriving at the imperial capital, various forces flocked to him, including the "social groups" representing both Buddhism and Taoism, made Wufeng more deeply realize the truth of the sentence that struggle is everywhere.
"High vision! Incisive!" A low but extremely charming voice came from behind the three of them, not only surprised the two women who had just fallen into deep thought, but also surprised Wufeng, who was free on the surface, in his heart.
He turned his body and pressed the sword. Two faint murderous auras suddenly formed, gathering directly behind Wufeng. However, Wufeng was not in a hurry and slowly turned around and looked at the uninvited guest behind him leisurely.
"I'm upset. I didn't want to meet like this, but what the young brother said made Jiang scream. I was really ashamed." Facing the murderous aura that came to his face, the middle-aged man standing behind Wufeng seemed to have no feeling at all. His pair of cold and lightning-filled eyes were firmly locked on Wufeng's calm face. Even the two men behind him were extremely human. The vague aura made Wufeng and his group feel dark.
At the same time, Wufeng seemed careless, but he had already mobilized the six senses to carefully observe the extraordinary man in gray in front of him. No matter how Wufeng's six senses explored, the man in gray was like a vast ocean, and it was still difficult to recognize his true side. After a little search, he knew that the other party's strength was far superior to him. Wufeng simply took back his senses and smiled generously: "My opinion is a fallacy, and I see the Fang family."
After frowned slightly, the man in gray immediately showed his face and said, "Why do you say this? Good is good, there is no need to be so polite."
Wufeng sighed in his heart to the man in gray, "I'm so clumsy, and the man in front of me is not sure where he is from, but he can make him feel difficult to touch for a while."
A long laugh was relieved, and Wufeng raised his eyebrows and said, "It is difficult for a family to say that it is a matter of the argument."
The man in gray stepped forward, looked Wufeng up and down, then clasped his fists and said, "Looking at the young brother Longhu's heroic posture, I can't help but meet a young hero. Can I borrow a place to speak?" He looked sincere.
"It's better to obey your orders than respect." Wufeng also felt that the other party was not hostile. He ignored the color of the two women beside him and nodded without hesitation.
"Please, how about we sit in Juying Tower?" the man in gray laughed loudly.
"Please." Wufeng was not polite, and took a step forward.
Juyinglou is a large restaurant located in West 11th District. Obviously, these three people are very familiar with the environment here, as if they were open by their own home. They did not walk through the front door but entered the door next to them. A waiter had already come up to him, and without asking anything, he took several people into a quiet place in the backyard. At this moment, Wufeng also felt a little reckless, and even knew the other party's background, so he followed the other party. If the other party was really malicious, he might be really difficult to get out, but he had already reached this point and had to bite the bullet and cheer up.
This is a very quiet and unique courtyard. The lake does not often receive outsiders. All this seems to be prepared for the man in gray. When the man in gray arrives here, he feels like he is at his own home.
