Small boats floated on the river, looking down from a high place, like leaves floating on the water, big and small, all different.Some ships are very large, they are merchant ships, carrying special products from other places, and there are often several smaller ships escorting them beside the merchant ships.

Jiangnan is a water town, so people who depend on water for food are indispensable.Some people are honest, go out early and go back to fishing late to spend their days; some people are smart, gather a group of people to form a gang, occupy one or several large rivers and collect fees, and call it protection fees. These gangs are called Cao Gang. Born for water transportation.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Jiangnan Cao Gang, there were more than a hundred large and small gangs. Following the law of the weak and the strong, the small gangs were either annexed or merged. After hundreds of years of development, there were only three gangs left in Jiangnan.

One is the Cao Gang established by the wealthy families in the south of the Yangtze River. It is mainly to escort the merchant ships of the various wealthy families, and secondly, some personnel will be selected to escort foreign merchants.

The second is the Cao Gang established by a local hero, called the Green Gang, they will pick up any job they have, no matter if you are a small merchant or a big nobleman.The Green Gang is the last of the three gangs, and later offended whom. A few years ago, the Green Gang was hunted down by the Xiangshenglou. Anyone with a status became the target of the Xiangshenglou. The Qinggang almost became the history of the Cao Gang.

Fortunately, there were noble people to help them through the catastrophe, avoiding the disaster of exterminating the gang. Not only did they not fall out of the seat of the three gangs, but also with the help of the people behind them, the power became more and more prosperous. This year, it also extended its tentacles to the north Well, the north side is not easy to walk, often you have to change the water at a certain distance, otherwise you can't go on, and I don't know what method the Qing Gang used to gain a foothold in the north, and it faintly overwhelmed the Feilong Gang to become the leader of the three gangs.

I heard that the royal family is behind the Green Gang, but most people think it's just a rumor, thinking that the royal family doesn't care about such petty gains.However, it is not without foresight and foresight. Some people have seen signs from the outstretched hands of the Qing Gang, and the people behind them are not interested in Jiangnan.

The remaining Cao Gang is the Flying Dragon Gang whose chief was almost robbed by the Green Gang. This gang is no ordinary Cao Gang. They are all outer disciples under the name of Cangyue Villa, and their main task is to deliver supplies for Cangyue Villa and the famous sects in the rivers and lakes. Their main helm is set up in Gusu City, which is where Cangyue Villa is located. .

Cangyue Mountain Villa is located on Cangyue Mountain outside Gusu City. Cangyue Mountain is named Cangyue Mountain Villa. The entire mountain is the territory of Cangyue Mountain Villa, including the small town at the foot of the mountain, Mingyue Town.

Mingyue Town is a small town outside Gusu City. At first, this town was the residence of the relatives of the disciples of Cangyue Villa and was protected by Cangyue Villa. Later, many poor people around Gusu City came here one after another, and gradually became It's a small town, and it's still a small town that the government dare not intervene at will.

At this time, the drizzle in Gusu City was hazy, with a bit of biting cold. Pedestrians on the road with their backs bent, braved the drizzle and hurriedly walked. , seems to have long been familiar with this sound.

But yes, Mingyue Town is next to Cangyue Mountain Villa, and besides ordinary people, there are also many people from Jianghu who come and go, and the people in the town will hear voices like this almost every day.

The clang came from an inn, which was the only inn in Mingyue Town. It was said that the second elder of Cangyue Villa was behind it, so no one dared to think about this inn.

The inn has two floors, and there is only one window on the upper floor, and the clang seems to come from behind that window.

"If you dare to slander my father again, don't blame me for not showing affection!"

This is a man in his early twenties, with a dignified appearance and an imposing manner.The man's brows were angry, and he held a long sword with a sharp blade that seemed to be able to blow hair off. The tip of the sword was pressed against the throat of an ordinary-looking man.

The man raised his hand, put his index finger and middle finger together on the body of the sword, pushed the sword away from his throat with a little force, and smiled at the man calmly: "If you don't believe me, Young Master, you can go back and investigate carefully. Lie, the young master can come at any time to take away my humble life. Until the young master finishes his investigation, I will stay here and wait for the young master to return."

The man's calm made the man believe in the secret he told. He hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Then you just wait for me to take your life!"

The man withdrew his sword, glared at the man, and strode away. Looking at his hasty pace, the man smiled triumphantly.

After the man left the inn, he drove Qinggong all the way to the top of the mountain. The misty mountain top could vaguely see the majestic buildings hidden behind it.

"Young Master!" Two burly men called out respectfully when they saw the person coming.

"En." The visitor lowered his brows in relief, nodded slightly to the gatekeeper disciple, and strode towards the villa.

The person who came was the man. Judging from the address he was given by the gatekeeper and the address the man gave him at the inn, he should be the young owner of Cangyue Villa, the half-brother who Qin Muchen did not know. , Musilo.

Cangyue Villa is very large. It takes less time to get a stick of incense from the main entrance to the inner house. The road to the inner house is even more complicated. It is said that the first generation owner used the Bagua array when building the villa. It is extremely easy to get lost in the process. But it was not difficult for Mu Siluo, but he reached his destination after a long time.

"Young Master."

"Where's my mother?"

Mu Siluo stopped and asked the maid beside the moon gate.

The maid echoed: "Return to the master, Madam is really practicing swords."

"kindness."

Mu Siluo responded casually, stepped towards the back of the Moon Gate, walked through the path paved with pebbles, and at the end was a square open space, surrounded by military frames, and in the center was a woman tossing and turning, her figure was as light as a wild goose .

"Mother." Mu Siluo spoke, interrupting the sword dance of the woman in the middle.

The woman frowned and stopped moving, her almond eyes swept towards Mu Siluo slightly annoyed, the eyebrows were [-]% similar to Mu Siluo, it could be seen that Mu Siluo followed the portrait of her mother.

"what's up."

"mother……"

Mu Siluo opened his mouth, and suddenly glanced at the maids at the side. A dark light flashed in his eyes, and he pretended to be coy: "Son... son has some private matters, and I want to ask mother to advise."

When the woman heard the words, Liu Mei frowned slightly, glanced at the maid next to her without a trace, and said with feigned anger: "How old is she, why do you look like a rich lady, follow your mother."

After finishing speaking, the woman walked to the pavilion on one side, and Mu Siluo followed quickly, and sat down with her back facing the entrance of the pavilion.

The woman looked up at the maids not far away, and winked at one of them, and the latter made an excuse to take her away.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" the woman took a sip from her full glass.
