"Washing Hands in a Golden Basin, it's not that simple!"
In the teahouse, an old man wearing a sheepskin coat took a few puffs from a large cigarette, puffed out smoke and shook his head, saying, "This golden basin for washing hands originally refers to the ceremony held by the boat people who delivered food to the Chang'an Palace of the Han Dynasty after they landed at the Wei River ferry, which means that they have finished their work for the officials."
"The gold basin was not real gold, but a copper basin. Later, it spread to all walks of life, and everyone learned this rule."
The speaker is Old Donkey Head, a lifelong handlebar type who has traveled extensively and experienced a lot. When he got older, he hung out in the Xianyang teahouse all year round.
There was a circle of idlers around, many of whom knew nothing about Jianghu Rules. Seeing this, they smiled and said, "Old Donkey Head, you have been Washing Hands in a Golden Basin for many years, right?"
"Alas~"
Old Donkey Head waved his hand quickly, "Old man, I'm just too old to do it. I have to teach the kids a lesson every day, but it's not Washing Hands in a Golden Basin. I quit this business completely, so I'm called Washing Hands in a Golden Basin."
"This Washing Hands in a Golden Basin, to put it simply, is to announce in public that you will no longer eat this bowl of rice, and usually invite your colleagues to watch the ceremony. Your colleagues are naturally happy to have less competitors, and they will even give you a small gift to express your congratulations."
"Those who are qualified Washing Hands in a Golden Basin are all local industry leaders. We are not even weak in football. Isn't this a joke?"
"Hahaha, that's true."
The onlookers burst into laughter.
One of the young masters was a little curious, "Washing Hands in a Golden Basin in Jianghu, I'm afraid it's another story, right?"
"That's natural."
Old Donkey Head sighed, "Some people have rivers and lakes, and wherever there are rivers and lakes, there are grievances and grievances. If you are a Green Forest Hero who kills countless people, how can those causes and effects be eliminated by just talking about them?"
"Even if the suffering owner agrees, the government will not agree!"
"The same goes for those who open martial arts schools. Washing Hands in a Golden Basin OK, but some accounts have to be settled. As long as someone doesn't admit it, it doesn't count."
"Why don't you recognize it?"
"People in the Jianghu, if what you say doesn't make sense, just use your fists. In short, all grievances must be settled. This is Washing Hands in a Golden Basin."
"After this level, if someone seeks revenge, it will be a violation of the rules, but if you participate in the Jianghu affairs, you will also have broken your oath."
People around him suddenly realized.
"That's it!"
"No wonder it's so noisy."
"Zhou Monkey misses Washing Hands in a Golden Basin, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive."
"Why can't you get through? Is there anyone who can beat him?"
"Don't you want someone to help you with your boxing..."
Everyone was talking about it, but the young master shook his head and said, "This rule is really ridiculous. It's just revenge. Is it possible that an oath can stop it?"
Old Donkey Head took a few puffs of cigarette and said meaningfully, "It makes sense for Jianghu Rules to be passed down."
"Jianghu Yi Lao, no matter who you are, there will be times when you can't handle it..."
"It's not enough for Zhou to retreat."
In the Zhang Clan Martial Hall, after the disciple brought the tea and left, Zhang ShiTong smiled brightly and whispered, "The times are bad. Zhou Monkey has three heads and six arms, so he can only admit that he is unlucky."
Li Yan took a sip of tea and said, "Chang'an is there any result?"
If the incident happened suddenly, there could only be something fundamentally wrong.
"That's right."
Zhang ShiTong smiled and said, "Lord Li You are very lucky. It seems that the Li family's fleet has made great contributions. The emperor personally issued an order to promote him. It is very likely that he will join the imperial court in the future."
"That Left Political Counselor Lu Kang Lord Lu has completely lost hope. Moreover, he has resorted to various means before. In order to protect himself, he had no choice but to resign and return to his hometown."
"This man, despite all his plans, cannot defeat destiny in the end!"
Li Yan had no interest in these government officials and said in a deep voice, "Zhou Pan wants Washing Hands in a Golden Basin, what's your attitude?"
Zhang ShiTong shook his head and said, "Lord Li also suffered a lot before, but in order to show his generosity, he did not pursue the case. He even reported to the court and hired a memorial arch for Lord Lu's home. Naturally, we can't go too far here."
"Cao Gang and Tai Hang Car and Horse Company make huge profits. As long as the Zhou family honestly withdraws from Xianyang and lets them take over some territory, they will not say anything..."
"Martial World's seniors are mainly afraid that the Zhou family will be bullied after they gain power. Now that the clouds have cleared, they are too lazy to provoke grudges..."
"Only senior Luo ShiHai insisted that the Zhou family hand over the murderer."
Li Yan glanced at it, "Where is your Zhang family?"
Zhang ShiTong chuckled and said, "My father has been elected as the next Xianyang Divine Fist Society president. How can we add insult to injury? Naturally, we have to be merciful and merciful."
"Tsk, tsk."
Sha LiFei saw his proud look and felt angry in his heart. He couldn't help but sarcastically said, "You have received benefits, so you are naturally generous. When the Zhou family caused other people's families to be destroyed, they never thought of being merciful and merciful."
"Where are those suffering people? No one comes to find trouble?"
Zhang ShiTong was not angry. He was silent for a moment, shook his head and said, "You are also a member of the world, how could you say such a thing?"
"Zhou Pan Washing Hands in a Golden Basin, what needs to be stabilized is Xianyang major forces, those suffering masters come to the door, and he just takes action to settle the grudges, why should he be afraid?"
"In this world, only those with big fists are qualified to speak..."
Sha LiFei was choked, muttered a few curses, and said nothing.
Li Yan said calmly, "Since you have made a decision, why should you ask me to do it?"
Zhang ShiTong said, "Didn't you cripple Zhou Bai? Even his father Zhou PeiDe has been imprisoned. My father's intention is to take this opportunity to talk things over to avoid any trouble in the future."
"My father wants you to join Divine Fist Society. After a few years of experience, you can open a martial arts school or set up a bodyguard agency to earn a share of the Li family's fortune. This can also be considered as the friendship between the older generation."
Li Yan was a little surprised when he heard this, but after a moment of silence, he still shook his head and said, "Thank you, Senior Zhang, for your kindness, but I'm afraid I can't obey your order."
Zhang ShiTong was stunned, "Why?"
Li Yan took a sip of tea and said calmly:
"I don't have big fists, but I am also one of the victims!"
On the sixth day of September, it is advisable to meet in person and make an alliance, but not to bury them.
"Hurry up, hang up the lantern!"
"Why hasn't the fish been delivered yet?"
"The bowman said that Wei River has been a little weird these past two days, and there are very few fish. They went to other rivers to fish, and they will definitely be able to catch up."
"Remember to look carefully and don't let them fool you with dead fish."
"Where is Uncle Wang Yao?"
"They said the medical center was crowded and couldn't leave."
"Fart, no matter what day it is, he is clearly..."
"Oh, that's all, let's talk to the master."
Outside the courtyard of the Zhou Family Martial Arts School, the disciples were busy.
Everyone knows what day today is.
Everyone was busy here and there, but there was a trace of confusion in their eyes.
When a tree falls and the hozens scatter, the same goes for the Zhou family.
These days, almost half of the martial arts disciples have said goodbye and left. Although the remaining ones are loyal, they can't help but feel panicked and don't know what to do in the future.
I still remember the last time the Zhou family was so lively, it was during the Mid-Autumn Festival, when Eight Great Vajras gathered together, and the escorts from various martial arts schools in the city, and even the officials from the yamen, all came to give gifts.
At that time, the troupe was hired from Chang'an.
The bright moon was shining brightly, the place was full of guests, and there was great joy.
Who would have thought that it would become like this in such a short period of time.
Among Eight Great Vajras, Zheng Xianhuai all died, Zhou PeiDe was imprisoned and sentenced to death, Yuan Qu and Zheng HeiBei escaped. It was said that the person who colluded with the demon was dead and all his property was confiscated.
Wang Yao from the medical center and Liu JinCheng from the escort agency all said that they had something to do and were unable to come. They clearly wanted to distance themselves from Zhou Pan. After all, they would still hang out at Xianyang City in the future.
Today, Eight Great Vajras actually had only two people present, and they were both Zhou family members.
The building collapsed so quickly that they couldn't react.
Many people have already started thinking about Xiao Jiujiu. After Zhou Pan Washing Hands in a Golden Basin, they will probably take the Zhou family away from Xianyang City and return to their hometown to settle down.
These people, who relied on the power of the Zhou family to act tyrannically and offended many people, it seems that after today, Xianyang City can no longer stay here.
Outside Zhou's house, many people gathered to watch the fun.
They pointed and pointed, their brows full of gloating.
When the disciples in the martial arts school saw this, they were all angry.
With the power of the Zhou family, these people didn't even dare to get close in the past, but now they dare to behave like this.
However, no one came forward to reason.
After today, when the Zhou family collapsed, they became rootless duckweeds. After conflicts with others, no one would stand up for them anymore.
One thing more is naturally better than one thing less.
Soon, the good time arrived, the firecrackers sounded, and the guests attending the ceremony arrived as scheduled.
There are disciples singing loudly at the door:
"Clear Spring Martial Hall Master Liu is here!"
"Prosperous Escort Agency Chief Li is here!"
"Tai Xing Cart and Horse Company Chief Qin is here!"
"Cao Gang Leader Han is here!"
"Zhang Clan Martial Hall Grandfather Zhang is here!"
"Yamen Constable Guan is here!"
It's not surprising that there are people watching the excitement at the door.
Zhou Pan Washing Hands in a Golden Basin, all the visitors are famous people on Xianyang Road.
Of course, even those who do not have a deep friendship or have any grudges will give a small gift for the sake of face, which makes people feel disrespectful.
What they want to see is whether anyone is causing trouble today!
