Chapter 124 Brothers reunited
Dong Yi was tied up like a dumpling and stepped into the land of Hong Kong. He never thought that he would be caught in Hong Kong in such an embarrassing state.
Wei Jixiang returned to the familiar Zhongyi Hall. As soon as he entered the hall, he immediately felt a solemn atmosphere. He looked around, looking at the brothers who had fought with him.
He took a deep breath and clapped his hands vigorously, the sound echoing in the air. The brothers put down what they were doing and quickly gathered around. Their eyes revealed surprise and admiration, and they all knew what had happened.
"Brothers, I have called you here today to discuss how to deal with this beast." His voice was low and firm, and his eyes fell on Dong Yi, with anger and ruthlessness flashing in his eyes.
Dong Yi lowered his head, not daring to meet everyone's gaze. He knew that he was finished, and his heart was filled with regret. Why did he have a conflict with the Gao brothers? Otherwise, he would still be the local emperor of Ya'an.
The hall fell into silence, and the brothers exchanged glances, thinking about how to deal with Dong Yi. Some of them gnashed their teeth in anger, while others showed bloodthirsty expressions.
Finally, Jiu Wenlong stood up and said slowly, "We at Xinjixiang have always believed in loyalty and justice, but this man has been bullying and bullying the local market in Ya'an, doing all kinds of evil. He must pay for what he has done."
The others nodded in agreement, their voices filled with determination.
Amid the argument, Han Bin stood up, his eyes swept over everyone and finally fell on Dong Yi.
"We are a united community, but loyalty and morality are our bottom line. This man's behavior not only seriously damaged the interests of the locals, but also almost took the lives of our brothers. We can't just let him go." The hall master said, "However, we should also give him a chance and let the four brothers of the Gao family give him three cuts and six holes. Whether he can survive depends on his luck."
Finally, after some discussion, everyone reached a consensus. Dong Yi will face the punishment of three cuts and six holes, but there is still a glimmer of hope.
Originally, three knives and six holes was a punishment prepared for gang members who made mistakes. Dong Yi was not a member of Xin Jixiang, but he was also a gangster. All the people in the underworld are one family and belong to the Hongmen.
Hongmen is a secret organization that originated in the Dragon Kingdom in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. There are many versions about the origin of Hongmen. One of the more popular ones is that Emperor Kangxi cleared out the Southern Shaolin Temple in Fujian. Chen Jinnan, the chief of the Tiandihui, took in the five people who escaped, Cai Dezhong, Fang Dahong, Ma Chaoxing, Hu Dedi, and Li Shikai. These are the so-called "Five Shaolin Ancestors" and ordered them to open a branch of the Tiandihui, which is called Hongmen. Another version says that these five people were generals who fought against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty. They followed Shi Kefa to resist the defeat of the Qing army and established Hongmen.
The Qing Gang (officially called the Qing Gang) is a gang with a long history in Longguo. It was founded by Weng Yan, Qian Jian and Pan Qing in the fourth year of Yongzheng's reign. The gang members used to work as dregs transporters, so they were called the grain boat gang. There were many people from all over the country who joined the gang. The Qing Gang is one of the most popular and influential folk secret societies since the early Qing Dynasty.
Although the Qing Gang and the Hongmen have a close relationship, they practice the Zen system, so unlike the Hongmen where members call each other brothers, the Qing Gang requires members to become apprentices, and members call each other master and apprentice, advocating that "master and apprentice are like father and son". The Qing Gang is more organized than the Hongmen, with more complicated rules, and therefore more secretive. Therefore, there is a saying: "The Qing Gang is one line, and the Hongmen is a large area".
The Qing Gang, which tended to be a guild, did not emphasize the anti-Qing and restoration of the Ming Dynasty like the Hongmen, but it also agreed with this idea to some extent and advocated "doing justice on behalf of heaven". Since the Qing Gang did not actively engage in anti-Qing activities, the Hongmen once regarded it as a traitor and strictly prohibited Hongmen members from switching to the Qing Gang, saying that "from Qing to Hong, you will be covered in red and decorated; from Hong to Qing, you will be skinned and pulled out." However, in order to avoid conflicts, the two factions still often call themselves "Qing and Hong are one family", so-called "red flowers, green leaves, white lotus roots (referring to Hongmen, Qing Gang, and White Lotus Sect), the three religions are originally one family". Especially in the late Qing Dynasty, many Qing Gang disciples also began to oppose the Qing Dynasty, and the two factions gradually reduced their hostility.
Then in the Republic of China, the gangsters were mainly the branches of Hongmen and Qingbang, which gradually evolved into the gangsters with their own names and generations, which were passed down from generation to generation. However, today's society is no longer the traditional gangsters. Wealth is respected, and whoever has money is the boss. This is also the sadness of the gangsters.
As the veterans of New Jixiang, the three brothers of the Gao family who followed Wei Jixiang to conquer the whole of Hong Kong had never suffered such a big loss since their debut. Their eyes were blazing with fire when they saw Dong Yi. Those three knives were aimed at vital points, leaving three transparent holes. Dong Yi, the mainland gangster boss who had done so many evil things, deserved to die.
Wei Jixiang finally returned to Hong Kong. He was filled with joy when he reunited with his old brothers. Every day, they gathered together, drank heartily, and recalled every little bit of the past.
In the pub, the lights were bright, and laughter and conversation were intertwined. Wei Jixiang sat among his old brothers, his face filled with a smile of reunion after a long separation. The wine glasses in their hands collided with each other from time to time, making crisp sounds, and the wine rippled in the glasses, as if cheering for their friendship.
Everyone talked about the past fun things and recalled the ups and downs they had experienced together. Every story made everyone laugh, and the laughter revealed a strong brotherhood. At this moment, they seemed to have returned to the time when they were on the edge of a knife and killed all around.
Wei Jixiang listened quietly, saying a few words from time to time, his eyes flashing with nostalgia for the past. He felt this sincere friendship and felt very comfortable. In this noisy tavern, they forgot about time and the troubles of the world, and were only immersed in each other's company and memories.
Such days make Wei Jixiang feel extremely happy. He knows that no matter how time passes, this brotherhood will always be engraved in his heart.
The brief reunion in Hong Kong was like a bright meteor across the sky, beautiful but short-lived. Wei Jixiang knew that he could not leave Jixiang Island for a long time, because there were many important things waiting for him to deal with.
He gazed into the distance silently, with a strong sense of responsibility in his heart. Jixiang Island is his home, and every blade of grass, every person and every thing here touches his heartstrings. He wants to protect the peace of this land, the safety of his family and friends, and keep Jixiang Island full of vitality forever.
Although the time together was short, the memories left behind are eternal. With thoughts of his friends and expectations for the future, Wei Jixiang turned to his busy work. His steps were firm and powerful, because he knew that only by working hard can he make Jixiang Island better and make the future reunion longer.
