Chapter 6 Black Water
Blackwater Gang Station

A burly man with a scar on his face sat directly above the lobby with a slash of sword.

"Zhang Hu, what do you think about Liu Wu?" the scarred man asked a man below who was carrying a nine-ring broadsword on his shoulder.

Zhang Hu answered without hesitation: "Boss, do we need to guess? It must have been those bastards from the Chisha Gang who did it!"

"laugh!"

Opposite him, a middle-aged man wearing a white brocade robe and holding an iron fan sneered.

Zhang Hu was immediately furious when he heard this. "What are you laughing at? You sissy!"

The man narrowed his eyes after hearing this, "Little tiger, do you believe that I will tear your mouth apart?"

"Come on!" Zhang Hu said unwillingly.

"Enough!" The scarred man at the top slammed the table and roared.

The two looked at each other and then stopped talking.

"Old Zhao, what do you think?" the scarred man asked the man holding the iron fan.

Zhao Yu thought for a moment and said, "I think the possibility that the murderer is from the Chisha Gang is relatively small."

"Oh why?"

"Because if the Chisha Gang wanted to kill Liu Wu to intimidate us, they wouldn't do it secretly. Wouldn't it be better to just rush in directly?" Zhao Yu explained.

The scarred man Li Gang nodded, "Indeed, who do you think it is?"

Zhao Yu smiled helplessly and shook his head, "Liu Wu has done so many bad things and offended so many people. There are many people who are capable of killing him, and it is difficult for me to confirm!"

"There are three martial arts disciples in the streets that our Black Water Gang is responsible for. They are also a possibility!"

"them?"

Li Gang frowned and said, "I give them a lot of money on weekdays! Why is it like this?"

There are countless gangs in the outer city. The reason why Li Gang can occupy a place among them is not only because of his outstanding strength, but also because he praises the strong and bullies the weak.

Although these martial arts school disciples are not his opponents now, their talents are much better than his, and it will be no problem for them to surpass him in a few years.

Li Gang did not dare to take the risk of offending the inner city martial arts school by taking the initiative, so naturally he could only share some of the profits and everyone won.

We all get along well with each other on weekdays, so it shouldn’t be that serious, right?
Zhao Yu looked at the frowning leader and continued, "Don't worry, leader. These are all my guesses. After all, although Liu Wu doesn't have much strength, he dares to risk offending the Black Water Gang to kill him. Whether it's for money or revenge, this person must have someone to rely on!"

"Well, let's put this matter aside for now and talk about it after we deal with the Chisha Gang!"

Li Gang put an end to the matter. Obviously, he also believed that it was those people who did it. How could a normal person have such courage? It was not worth making a big fuss for a small Liu Wu.

No matter what his purpose is, as long as he doesn't take action again, he doesn't bother to care.

As for being loyal and avenging your subordinates?
Bullshit, how much is loyalty worth?

Zhao Yu nodded without any surprise. He knew the current situation and put profit first, which was why he was willing to follow Li Gang.

They are not bandits who occupy the mountains and act as kings. They need to convince their subordinates and make them willing to join and fight for them. It is all for the sake of making money. Those at the top make a lot of money, while they make a little money and the people below just sit back and enjoy the profits.

After a few more years of fishing, he would just run away. Why would he continue doing this business that would cost him his life? He believed that Li Gang definitely thought the same.

Liu Wu is dead, and the brothers in the gang are overwhelmed with joy. Whoever fills this vacancy can make more money. It would be fine if revenge for him was simple, but if it is a little complicated, they will be the first ones who are unwilling to do it.

They are so bored that they are bored. Gangsters are only powerful among civilians, but their heads are on their belts, so they can't blame others if they die.

Several people in the lobby dispersed one after another. From the beginning to the end, they never thought that it was an ordinary person who killed Liu Wu.

In their opinion, how could the little people who are used to being bullied have the courage and ability to do this?

This is indeed the case. People born in this era are naturally more afraid of authority. In peaceful times, they are afraid of officials; in troubled times, they are afraid of bandits and thieves. After all, those who dare to resist are rare.

……

next day
Fang Chen got up before dawn and went to the martial arts gym. There were few people on the road at this time, so he took the opportunity to leave.

By the time he arrived at the martial arts hall, the sky was already slightly bright, and some diligent disciples had begun practicing in the martial arts arena.

Fang Chen had no intention of communicating with the others and started practicing on the spot.

While practicing, Fang Chen realized something was wrong. Those people stopped and looked at him intently.

Seeing Fang Chen frowning, one of them asked, "Brother, are you practicing the Fiery Sun Fist?"

Fang Chen was puzzled, but still answered: "Yes, what's wrong?"

When those people heard his affirmative answer, they all smiled, "Excuse me, I'm Liu Yuan!" "I'm Li Lin!"

"I am Li Sen!"

"..."

After those people introduced themselves one by one, Fang Chen clasped his fists and responded: "I am Fang Chen! May I ask what you brothers mean?"

A strange look flashed in Liu Yuan's eyes, and he asked, "Brother Fang, don't you know that not everyone can learn the Fiery Sun Fist?"

"The master of the hall has stipulated that one must at least be able to test the upper-middle bone structure before learning this stance!"

When Fang Chen heard this, he was surprised. Li Quan didn't tell him this yesterday.

"Is the upper middle bone good?" Fang Chen asked back.

The few of them looked at each other, Liu Yuan's mouth twitched slightly, and he smiled bitterly: "Brother Fang, what you said is really... If I hadn't seen you like this, I would have thought you were mocking us!"

Fang Chen quickly apologized, "Fang Chen is not very knowledgeable, and I hope my words may have offended you. Please forgive me!"

"Junior Brother Fang, are you from outside the city?" Li Lin asked.

After getting his nod in response, several people breathed a sigh of relief. Instead of looking down on his background, they became even more enthusiastic.

In the end, it was Liu Yuan who answered his question, "Brother Fang, you don't know, this kind of superior physique is rare, and we only have one senior brother in our Liyang martial arts school!"

"Below this is the middle to upper level physique. Although it is far inferior to the top level, it is still possible to reach the level of a martial arts master!"

Liu Yuan's eyes revealed awe and longing. "Once you achieve the state of training strength, you will be an important figure in the whole Tongcheng. It is said that one person can defeat thousands of troops!"

"Having said that, it is quite difficult to achieve strength training, and the probability of having a medium to high level bone structure is also very small. However, if there are enough resources, it is not difficult to achieve perfect strength training!"

Liu Yuan stared at Fang Chen and said, "Junior brother, you come from a humble background, so you must be lacking in resources. I am not talented enough, but I am willing to help you!"

He spoke directly, and the people behind him suddenly became anxious and spoke out.

"Why should you, Liu Yuan, support me? Junior brother, our family has a little money and can also give you some help! As long as you..."

"My family too!"

"..."

Fang Chen looked at several people vying to speak and felt like he was attending an auction. Well, the item for auction was himself.

Unexpectedly, the talent that the eldest senior brother disdained became a rare treasure in the eyes of these people.

Come to think of it, the eldest senior brother himself has a superior physique, so naturally he wouldn't pay much attention to those who are not as good as him.

Fang Chen felt a slight headache and pressed his hands slightly, signaling everyone to calm down.

Liu Yuan also spoke up at this time, and said seriously: "What are you talking about! Do you think of Junior Brother Fang as a commodity?"

The few of them could only stop talking unwillingly, and Fang Chen nodded to Liu Yuan gratefully.

Then he said to them, "Thank you for your kindness, brothers, but I have one thing to make clear. I am already seventeen years old this year!"

The faces of several people changed suddenly, and the air seemed to be silent for a few seconds. Li Lin patted Fang Chen's shoulder with regret.

"Alas, that's such a pity. In this case, it will be difficult for you to break through to the perfection of your training!"

He did not mention the funding anymore, and several people left. Some even showed expressions of gloating.

Fang Chen watched this scene calmly. Although he was indeed tempted by the funding, he still needed to make things clear first to avoid becoming enemies in the future.

Then he looked at Liu Yuan, who had not yet left, in surprise, "Brother Liu, what's this?"

Liu Yuan smiled and said, "I'm sorry, although the funding is not possible, I still want to make friends with you."

As he said this, he clasped his fists and bowed. Fang Chen did not hesitate and clasped his fists in response.

Afterwards, Liu Yuan still said unwillingly: "Is Junior Brother really seventeen?"

Knowing that Liu Yuan was a little suspicious of his thin body, Fang Chen sighed and said, "To be honest with you, Senior Brother Liu, I had a serious illness half a year ago, so I look a little thinner."

Liu Yuan said regretfully after hearing this: "That's such a pity!"

Fang Chen blinked and suddenly asked, "Senior Brother Liu, is seventeen really old?"

Liu Yuan said with emotion: "It's not too big, there will be no problem in practicing martial arts."

"but……"
