Chapter 115: Cabin Night Talk
Le Yiyang listened to their words and recalled the incident in the past at the Villain Building. At that time, Ji Yun was still by his side. Now he hasn't seen him for more than a month. I don't know how good the beauty is now. Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a knock on the door outside the door. Someone asked loudly: "Is anyone in the house? We passed by here and wanted to rest here for a night, but I don't know if it's inconvenient to let go?"
Kuang Weijun touched Le Yiyang with his elbow and asked softly: "Brother Le, what should I do next?"
Le Yiyang thought for a moment and said, "They are disciples of the Beggars' Sect. They have been traveling for a day. Now, like us, they are exhausted. I think they can come in. Anyway, we don't have to break through the rivers, so we can be at peace."
Kuang Weijun said, "Okay, I'll open the door now." He walked to the door and complained deliberately: "Who is there outside? Will you let someone rest in the middle of the night?"
The outside of the house suddenly became silent. After a while, someone replied: "We are disciples of the Beggars' Gang in Dingzhou. I'm really embarrassed to disturb your rest."
Kuang Weizun said loudly: "It's over now, don't say anything to disturb you or not. I'll let you in." As soon as he finished speaking, he took out the door bolt and opened the door.
When the people saw Kuang Weizun, they said in unison: "It turns out to be the young master. I didn't expect you to have arrived in Yingzhou too."
Le Yiyang didn't know what happened, but then walked up and found that these people were disciples of the Beggars' Gang whom he met on Dingzhou street during the day. He said, "What are you doing at the door? Come in and rest quickly."
When those people received the invitation, they all walked into the cottage, took out the flints on their bodies and lit the remaining candles in the house. With the faint candlelight, they all found a place, put the wooden stick with them, and then sat respectfully on the ground.
Le Yiyang looked at the wooden stick and asked curiously: "Dear Beggars' Sect brothers, why do you each carry a wooden stick with you?" One of them replied: "Young Master, this is the rule of our Beggars' Sect. Everyone should carry it from the leader of the gang, otherwise they will be expelled from the gang."
Kuang Weizun said skeptically: "There is such a magical thing in the world?"
The man pointed to the wooden stick on the ground and said, "Young Master doesn't know that although we are the largest gang in the Central Plains, most of the disciples in the gang beg for a living in various places. However, not all beggars are disciples of the Beggars' Gang. Only those who understand martial arts and can be chivalrous and righteous can join. In order to distinguish the brothers in the gang among the crowd, the founder set this rule during the reign of Emperor Xizong of Tang. It has been passed down from generation to generation for decades and has never been intermittent."
Kuang Weizang then understood and said, "Now I understand. I can finally tell whether the Beggar Gang disciples are ordinary beggars."
The man smiled slightly and said, "This young master, things are not that simple. Just a wooden stick is far from enough. Some beggars sometimes pretend to be disciples of the Beggars' Sect in order to survive and go to churches in various places to eat and live, but they are often seen through." He looked at Le Yiyang again and said, "Two young masters, our Beggars' Sect has their own connection code, so it's not convenient for me to disclose it here."
Le Yiyang kept thinking about a question. When he heard him say this, he nodded and replied: "This is a secret matter of your gang, and we can certainly understand it. But I have a question that I have been puzzled by all. I hope you can answer my questions for me."
The man smiled and said, "Young Master is a gentle and polite person. I guess he is a scholar? You can say whatever you have and see if I can answer it."
Le Yiyang said calmly: "Just heard what you said just now, everyone in the gang must carry a wooden stick, which does make sense. However, the leader of the gang Mu Yuchunmu Gang is a great hero who stands tall and strong. Should he also carry a wooden stick with him?"
The man was shocked after hearing this and thought to himself: "Has this young master ever seen the gang leader? We have come all the way, and there are no credible clues, so we can learn some news about the gang leader from him." So he said: "Of course, the gang leader is no exception."
Le Yiyang exchanged glances with Converse Zombie, remembering that there was no wooden stick in his hand just now, and then he seemed to understand why he was eager to avoid these people.
Kuang Weizhan stretched out his waist and said, "I have heard rumors in the world that Gangmao Mu is a free and unruly person. How could such a person with a temperament be confined to the details and carry a wooden stick with him? It's so inconvenient. If he is seen by his opponent in the world, he thinks he is already unable to walk, which will damage his reputation."
The people looked at each other and said, "At this time, the rules set by the ancestors were strictly followed by the previous gang leaders. Although the gang leader Mu acted strangely, he would eventually take into account the face of tens of thousands of brothers in the gang."
Le Yiyang felt a little depressed and said worriedly: "Brothers, if anyone violates this fixed position, will he be expelled from the Beggars' Sect?"
The person who spoke just now became excited and said loudly: "Yes, even the leader of the gang will be useless. Among the gang are the four elders Xia, Chen, Du, and Huang. Xia Changlao is the first of the four elders, and his status is second only to the leader of the gang. If the person in the gang makes a mistake, the four elders will definitely act according to the gang rules, and even the leader of the gang will not be spared."
Le Yiyang finally understood what was going on. It turned out that Mu Yuchun had no wooden stick, so he was afraid to meet with the people in the gang. But why he didn’t carry a wooden stick is unknown. Mu Yuchun hid all day long and hid all day long, and when will the end be? Maybe one day, he figured it out, stood up decisively, and announced to the disciples of the Beggar Gang that he would no longer carry a wooden stick with him, which means that he would voluntarily resign as the leader of the Beggar Gang and then leave the Beggar Gang whom he had known for many years.
When Le Yiyang thought of this, a sad feeling surged into his heart. He said to himself, "Why do everyone in the world have troubles?" Kuang Weizan shrugged helplessly and said, "If people do not have long-term plans, they will have immediate worries. It seems that this sentence is true."
Those disciples of the Beggar Gang were not sure what they were singing and what they said, and they all stared at the two of them. After a moment, one of them asked, "The two young men are really invisible. We do have some worries in our hearts."
Le Yiyang looked at the expressions of expectations and said slowly: "You might as well listen to it and see if we can help."
The man cleared his throat and said, "Something happened in the gang recently, but the gang leader has never appeared. The four elders were anxious. After their discussion, Xia Changlao ordered all places to ask the Beggars' Gang's disciples to inquire about the whereabouts of the gang leader. We have only found all the way from Dingzhou and have not yet found anything."
Le Yiyang said, "Brothers, I have seen Gang Master Mu twice. However, his whereabouts are uncertain. The dragon sees its head but not its tail. The distance between the two times is a thousand miles away."
