The Shun School did not invite all the gangs in Ba to attend the Sect-Merging Assembly. A small gang like the Shun School should not have done anything worthy of others' attention. Even if they invited, they would not come.
But this time, the eight gangs united was indeed a big event in Ba. The Shun School did not forbid outsiders to attend the ceremony. Soon, the hall was crowded with people from all the gangs in Ba. Of course, the leaders of the biggest gangs would not come, but they also sent their trusted informants to inquire about the situation.
Ever since the Shun Gate was split up, this might be the first time the empty gathering hall was filled with people. So many people from various sects had gathered here.
The leaders of the seven gangs, including the Iron Helm Gang, the Six Sails School, and the Shun Society, stood solemnly in front of the hall, meticulously burning incense, saluting, and greeting the Master according to the rules. Qiao Mu was wearing a new suit. Although the bruises on his face were still there, he was full of energy and his face was ruddy.
The three brothers of the Gu family were among the brothers of the Shun School. He had seen Miss Gu's kung fu. It was said that her three brothers were more powerful than her. With these four masters, no one would come to make trouble in the Shun School today.
Yesterday, he also saw how Dugu Wentao of the Dugu family subdued Li Hei and Yan Shiwei. With the power of the Dugu family, it was completely reasonable for them to ask Jun Ruyan to hide behind closed doors and then pressure the government to punish Wenbin.
Lady Gu had said that the one who truly wanted to help the Shun Gate wasn't the Dugu Clan, but rather the successor of Zhang San Ye. This person was even able to order around the Dugu Clan. Up until now, he had never seen this person, nor did he know his name or identity. However, he had already firmly believed in Lady Gu's words.
Qiao Mu was also a veteran in Jianghu. He was knowledgeable and experienced. He had received the help of a great benefactor for no reason and was promised such a great benefit. Was he not on guard at all? Indeed, he was not, because he had nothing to be on guard against. He had nothing that could be seen by others.
With their power, they had people and money. The only thing they could rely on was probably the Shun School, which was about to rot soon. If they could really make the Shun School stand up again as Miss Gu said, even if they really used him, even if they killed him, so what? Besides, he was already desperate. His life was saved by others. Qiao Mu did not believe that there would be a free lunch in the world. He had already staked everything on this one throw.
Seeing that the seven gang leaders who led the gang members into the Shun Gate had finished offering incense, Qiao Mu tightened his belt and walked forward. His thighs were still swollen and he staggered a little, but his gait was extremely steady and powerful, with a solemn and solemn expression.
Everyone's gazes were focused on him. The people of the Shun Gate were excited and excited. Many of them had tears in their eyes. The spectators were curious, amazed, cynical, and doubtful. But at this moment, no one spoke. The hall was abnormally quiet.
Qiao Mu solemnly burned a stick of incense to the ancestors' memorial tablet. When he turned around, Zhuo Yiqing, who was wearing a short jacket and a red silk belt, came over with a tray with a bowl of wine on it.
Qiao Mu picked up the wine bowl and glanced at the people of the Shun School who were standing solemnly under the steps. He did not even look at the people of other sects who were watching the ceremony in the corridor on both sides. He said loudly, "Brothers, since the Canal Transport came into being, there have been Canal Handlers. Our ancestors supported us with an oar, a boat, and a pole to support us and support our families.
But the wind and waves on the river are dangerous. When the boats are sailing, there is always the risk of capsizing and destroying the boat, and losing both the people and the goods. We have to pass through the locks and docks, and there are many difficulties, extortion and blackmail. It is very difficult for us who drive boats on the water. So, we have to form gangs and establish sects.
The purpose of forming a faction was not to commit crimes, nor was it to oppress the good. It was to unite everyone and fight against the dangers of the river, against the corrupt officials, and against the local tyrants who closed the lock and docks. But today, the sects on the Ba have gone against the original intention of the ancestors. They cheat each other, undermine each other, and are even controlled and used by others.
It is already the fifth generation of the Shun School in my hands. But I am unfilial. My ancestors' great family business has been ruined by me. But I have always been determined to revive the Shun School. Today, the Iron Rudder Sect, the Six Sails School, the Shun Society … all the brothers are willing to join us and join us. I am very grateful.
Brothers, today is the day when the seven sects merge into the Shun School. From now on, we will be as close as one family. We will share blessings and difficulties! Today is just the beginning. I hope that all the heroes on the Ba can join us. The waves are high and the risks are high, but we are in the same boat! Let's drink this bowl of wine. "
The heads of the seven sects who lined up in front of the hall each held a bowl of wine and drank it up with him.
Qiao Mu gulped down the wine in his bowl, put it down and said, "The Shun School has the help of all the good brothers. Today, the eight sects are united, and the tasks in this sect should be clarified. Since the seven sects have joined the Shun School, you can no longer keep your original banners. From now on, the seven of you are the seven stewards of the Shun School. At present, you are still in charge of your original people and ships. "
This was already discussed. Han Yuantang and the other six people cupped their fists and said yes. They walked behind Qiao Mu and stood still with their hands clasped behind their backs.
Qiao Mu said again, "We live in the Cao Family. It is inevitable that we will meet the heroes of the three mountains and five peaks. If we don't have the strength, we will be bullied. In a sect, the Cao Family is indispensable. Now, the eight sects of our sect are united. After a discussion with the stewards, we have elected a popular person to be the helmsman of the Cao Family! "
"Miss Gu!"
Qiao Mu shouted. The disciples of the Shun School parted to the left and right, and Gu Zhuting, who was in a white short dress, strode out.
There was a commotion in the crowd. Everyone knew that this lady had fought against a hundred people and defeated over a hundred experts of the Flood Dragon Triad. However, it was the first time that many people had seen her. She had a beautiful appearance, a slim figure, a slender waist, and a straight chest. She was full of femininity and did not look like a hero of the pugilistic world at all.
If her moon-white short garment was replaced by a wide-sleeved gauze long skirt, and the saber hanging on her slender waist was replaced by a medicinal hoe hanging on her shoulder, there would be a bright moon and osmanthus branches by her side, and a white rabbit would be hopping and hopping under her feet. But she was actually the helmsman of the Cao Quan.
Qiao Mu said loudly, "From now on, Miss Gu is the first deputy head of the Shun School, the helmsman of the Cao Family!"
In front of the hall, the disciples of the seven sects who had just joined the Shun School and the disciples of the Shun School all cupped their hands to salute to Gu Zhuting, and said loudly, "Helmsman Gu!"
Everyone spoke in unison, their voices echoing loudly in the hall. It was unusually solemn. Unexpectedly, at this moment, a fussy voice suddenly rang out. It was spoken in Chinese, but the tone was somewhat exotic.
"Ah! I swear in the name of Allah, this is the most beautiful oriental woman I have ever seen! Her waist is slender, thinner than the sick body tortured by unrequited love. Her eyes are more affectionate than the crescent moon in the sky. When she walks, she is like a breeze, gently stepping over sand dunes. I fall for her, I am fascinated by her … "
The solemn atmosphere in the hall of the Shun School was gone. Some people were talking, some were laughing, and some were looking around. It was a mess at once.
Yang Fan stood there and groaned inwardly. He and Abdullah came here to watch the fun, but they didn't know that this guy was a playboy who couldn't change his bad habit of flirting with women. He was showing off his talent in poetry again.
Yang Fan knew that today was the big day when the seven sects merged into the Shun School. If it went well, the Flood Dragon Society would also have a result in the next two days. With the martial strength of the Gu siblings and the support of the Dugu family, Yang Fan was not worried that there would be any trouble.
Of course, there would be trouble sooner or later, but not now. It must happen at the end of January or the beginning of February next year. If there was no big trouble by then, he would take the initiative to create one.
Today, Yang Fan really came to watch the fun as a spectator. Even Gu Zhuting didn't know that he was here. Who knew that Abdullah, who was standing there watching the "Japanese scenery", would say such words when he saw Gu Zhuting.
In the uproar, Qiao Mu frowned and thought that someone really came to make trouble. He hurriedly winked at Zhuo Yiqing, and the Gu brothers and the kung fu experts of the Shun School who were hidden in the shadows immediately moved quietly to the place where the sound came from.
Today, the Shun School inexplicably merged with other sects, and from Qiao Mu's words, it seemed that he wanted to restore the former glory of the Shun School. If he restored the former glory, didn't it mean that all the sects on Ba had to surrender to him? So the people of the big sects kept sneering with their arms crossed.
However, they hadn't figured out the ins and outs of the Shun Gate yet, so there was no need to be the first bird to stick out. They didn't think that someone would finally speak first. Everyone looked over, not knowing which sect it was that couldn't restrain themselves and made a move.
Gu Zhuting suddenly turned her head and raised her eyebrows like swords. Her sharp eyes suddenly looked at the place where the sound came from. Everyone shivered when they saw her. Previously, they saw her slender waist and graceful gait, which was far from the image of a heroine in their imagination. Now that she was full of heroic spirit, there was a feeling of a sharp sword being unsheathed.
When Gu Zhuting looked at him, Abdullah felt even better about himself. Like a peacock showing strong desire, he took a big step, opened his arms, and praised loudly, "Ah! She was like a plain shepherdess, her natural charm captivating people. How could this be compared to the pretentiousness of the city girls who put on makeup and put on makeup?
Her bright and beautiful eyes are like a sharp arrow piercing through the clouds, piercing my heart. You are such a charming little vixen. I really want to bury my head in your chest that is smoother than an ostrich's egg and suck your rare sweet spring! "
"Hiss …"
Many people secretly sucked in a breath of cold air. The previous words of praise were fine. It wasn't that the women of the Central Plains couldn't be praised for their beauty. Although what he said was a bit explicit, with the waist and eyebrows, in fact, with a little embellishment, it would be no different from Cao Zijian's' Luo Shen Fu '.
But … but what he said next was too explicit. Was he openly flirting with the helmsman of the Shun School in the assembly of the Shun School?
The people around Abdullah acted like Abdullah had become a plague patient, all of them scurrying out of the way. Even Yang Fan immediately fled. For a moment, the only people left at Abdullah's side were the talkative Abbas and a few Arab warriors in brown robes.
