63 Golden Tiger
Ye Qin is just an ordinary apprentice in the Medicine Collection Hall. This identity is indeed not qualified to attend the Treasure Fair on the Third Floor of Yongfu Building where elders of major gangs gather.
He laughed helplessly for a moment. When he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something. He seemed to have a treasure order, which was given to him by Elder Huang, the second month ago, saying that as long as he holds this treasure order, he can go to him anytime and anywhere. With this token, he should go to the trade fair.
He had an idea and then turned around and left.
A quarter of an hour later, Ye Qin returned to Yongfu Tower again.
At this time, he changed into a dress, black clothes all over, a hat on his head, a three-foot-long Fenghan sword on his back, and a light herb that concealed the smell. The mysterious man in black who sold Qingxin Pills to Elder Huang appeared again two months ago.
Ye Qin stepped into the lively Yongfu Building, passed through the ordinary guest floor on the first floor and the Shangguan Tower on the second floor. He slowly walked up to the third floor. At the entrance of the staircase on the third floor, four strong-dressed men from the Zhenbao Gang with their heads raised and their chests were guarding.
The men in strong clothes saw a man in black wearing a hat coming up, but they could not tell what the origin was and were secretly confused.
The leader of a strong man in strong clothes blocked Ye Qin's way and bowed and shouted in a deep voice: "Brother, the third floor has been booked by my Zhenbao Gang. The trade fair is being held. It is prohibited for ordinary people to go upstairs. Only the distinguished guests of my Zhenbao Gang can enter. Please show your invitation or explain your identity and origin!"
Ye Qin didn't say anything, and took out a golden token, the size of a finger, from his arms, and lit it.
The head man's eyes lit up and he exclaimed in a low voice:
"Treasure Order! It turns out that you are the distinguished guest of Elder Huang who is my helper. It is rude and rude! Elder Huang has specially ordered that as long as someone comes with his treasure order, he will immediately notify him. Please, please inform Elder Huang that there will be a distinguished guest."
The big man knew the importance of this small golden token and led Ye Qin into the trading hall. Then he quickly left the hall and came to an outside of a private luxury compartment on the third floor to find Elder Huang.
Deluxe interior compartment.
Elder Huang was sitting on a sandalwood chair, carefully wiping the rare treasures, swords, swords, and golden silk inner armor on the table, rubbing them spotlessly and shiningly.
These dozens of treasures will be the highlight of tonight's trade fair.
Before each transaction, Elder Huang would habitually handle them in the best state and enhance their appearance to increase the transaction price. At this time, no one is allowed to disturb him.
Hearing a rapid footstep at the door, he couldn't help but frown.
A man in strong clothes outside the door stopped at the door and hurriedly reported: "Elder Huang, a man in black came to attend today's treasure fair with your treasure order. According to your instructions, as long as someone comes with your order, he will report to you immediately no matter whenever he or she."
Elder Huang was slightly stunned, then suddenly stood up from the sandalwood chair, and a trace of unusual excitement appeared on his rosy face.
Is that man in black here?
He ignored the treasures he was wiping in his hand and strided out of the luxurious compartment and walked towards the trading hall outside.
The man in yellow quickly followed him. He was very surprised. Elder Huang's current excited expression did not look like a steady elder of the Treasure Gang at all. Instead, he seemed a little reckless. Who was the man in black that actually made Elder Huang so excited?
Elder Huang's excitement was beyond words.
Here comes, in the past two months, the mysterious man in black finally appeared again.
Only he himself knows why he is so excited.
The man in black claimed to be from a certain family and exchanged a Qingxin Pill for a green jade pendant that was said to contain spiritual energy. All of this was so familiar that he had to remember a long-standing memory.
Speaking of which, that was the case twenty years ago.
At that time, the rivers and lakes of Pingzhou were completely different from those of Pingzhou now.
Twenty years ago, there was a mysterious and powerful family in Pingzhou. This family controlled the top ten gangs behind the scenes. Only the leaders of the top ten gangs and their heirs knew about its existence in this mysterious family. The leaders of the top ten gangs issued by this family must unconditionally execute every order issued by this family, and a batch of goods must be paid to the family every year.
At that time, the order and gang strength ranking of Pingzhou's rivers and lakes were completely in the hands of this mysterious family. All gangs that dared to resist, no matter how large the size of the gangs, no matter how strong the martial arts of the gangs are, or how strict the guards are, even if the top gangs in Pingzhou offend the authority of this mysterious family, their core senior management and top experts would disappear collectively overnight without a trace, without any trace, and the gang's strength plummeted overnight and plummeted.
This family has existed in Pingzhou for hundreds of years. Over time, no other gang among the top ten gangs in Pingzhou dared to resist the iron-fisted rule of this mysterious family.
Twenty years old, Elder Huang was only over forty years old at that time. He was a middle-level and middle-aged core disciple of the Zhenbao Gang. He was also one of the most promising heirs for the next leader of the Zhenbao Gang.
As one of the heirs of the leader of the Zhenbao Gang, he once followed the former leader of the Zhenbao Gang and pulled a whole carriage of rare jade, rare and precious grass, precious wood, and various rare things, with a total value of tens of thousands of gold leaves. He gave it to the patriarch of the family as a offering for the Zhenbao Gang every three years.
So he had the honor of getting in touch with the inside story of that family and met the members of that family. There were about six or seven members in that family, some were old and some were young, some were men and some were women.
Everyone is said to be at the level of being a peerless master or above.
Of course, no one has seen them use force, and those who have seen them are probably dead.
After checking all the goods in the carriage, the clan leader of the family only picked more than ten pieces of jade, two precious woods, and a few small things. The rest were all called a spiritual waste by the clan leader and scolded the old gang leader.
The old gang leader didn't dare to say anything at all.
After the clan leader scolded the old gang leader, he later rewarded a "spicy pill" that is said to be able to prolong life and eliminate all diseases to the old gang leader of the Zhenbao Gang, and encouraged the old gang leader of the Zhenbao Gang to send more jade and plants and trees in three years, promising to give more such elixirs in exchange for these jades.
The old gang leader got the elixir and regarded it as a peerless treasure. He treasured it with his own eyes and refused to show it to others.
However, he has only seen this kind of tribute once in his own eyes.
Later, for some reason, all members of the mysterious family disappeared overnight without a trace and never appeared again. No one knew where they went. The top ten gangs naturally stopped paying tribute once every three years.
Elder Huang never understood one thing, why the jade in the big cart had no spiritual energy, but only the ten small pieces of jade and precious wood had spiritual energy. In his eyes, they were all the same jade and could not be distinguished at all. Why could the people from that mysterious family see their differences?
This is an unsolvable mystery.
Twenty years passed in a flash, and the previous old leader of the Zhenbao Gang was abdicated early. He was unexpectedly defeated by another candidate for the leader of the sudden army, and failed to ascend to the throne of the leader of the Zhenbao Gang, but became the chief elder of the Zhenbao Gang.
