After hearing that Yuan Jingyang claimed to be greedy for money and lustful without concealing it, Yu Bianyun pondered for a long time and actually shouted out the word "good".

Yu Bianyun praised: "People who are greedy for money and lustful dare to say that they are greedy for money and lust. This can be regarded as upright, and it is hundreds of times better than those well-dressed hypocrites in military societies."

Yuan Jingyang was naturally elated when he heard the praise. However, he heard the words "Junshe" and "Daomashe" many times, and he couldn't help but ask what they were.

Yu Bianyun and Yang Shangyun explained to him that since the founding of the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty had always advocated the policy of using force and cultivating civility, which resulted in the army's combat effectiveness becoming increasingly weak. In order to deal with foreign enemies and internal thieves, many places had to do it themselves with the semi-permission of the government.

Some military societies were organized, such as Zhujiazhuang during the Huizong period of Song Dynasty, and Zengtou City were all such organizations.

Among the many societies, the most famous ones are the three major societies. One of them is the Bow and Arrow Society. During the Jingde period, the people united themselves into the Bow and Arrow Society. The official members of the Bow and Arrow Society were all head households, and the heads of households in a certain area formed an alliance.

For a society, no matter how high or low the family fortune is, each household will have one person, and they will recommend people with rich family fortune and strong martial arts to serve as the leaders of the society, which are called "head of the society, deputy of the society, and recorder of affairs". Organization and training of the bow and arrow society

It is quite strict. Each member carries a bow for hoeing and a sword for woodcutter. The rewards and punishments set are stricter than those of the government. At the same time, they "patrol in separate groups and build houses facing each other. If it is revealed that the northern thieves and local bandits are not caught, all the people in that group will be seriously injured."

"Punishment"; On weekdays, all weapons, armor, saddles and horses are ready, ready to fight against the invasion of the Northern invaders at any time. Only in this way can we beat the drums and kill thousands of people in an instant when they are in danger.

The second is the horse-buying society, which first appeared in the northern border area. The imperial court adopted the method of official assistance and established a new forbidden army during the Zhidao period - the Guangrui Horse Army. After the horse-buying society system became successful in Hedong

, was quickly promoted by the imperial court in Shaanxi, Hebei and other places. The horse buying society established a horse army of more than 10,000 people in five or six years, so Zhenzong praised it and said: Guang Rui thirty commanders each buy horses, which is very beneficial to the country.

The third one is the Zhongyi Tour Society, which originally started in Heshuo, an area ravaged by wars. Every five members of its society are one armor, five armors are teams, five teams are departments, and five departments are communities, each with its own strengths. Up to the fifth community, there are

The capital society has a chief and a deputy. If the two capital societies have more than 10,000 people, two local tycoons will be selected as the deputy generals of the capital. Using the system of supplementary officials, if there are more than 10,000 people, they will become Zhonglang; if there are more than 1,000 people, they will be Baoyilang; eight

There are more than 100 people, Chengxin Lang. From Jia to the general jurisdiction, he was transferred at the age of three. In the first year of Jianyan, the Supreme Emperor (Gaozong) repeatedly issued an edict to establish the Loyalty Tour Society across the country. With the vigorous promotion of the imperial court, the Zhongyi Tour Society was established.

It quickly developed from Hebei to Jingdong, West, Hedong, Shaanxi and other roads, and assisted Yue Fei and Han Shizhong, the two great propaganda envoys, in collecting a lot of military intelligence.

Speaking of this, Yu Bianyun paused: "But..."

"But what?" Yuan Jingyang asked.

Yang Shangyun took over the conversation: "However, after Longxing, I, the Song Dynasty, called my nephew to the Jin people, and the war subsided. These three major societies also declined day by day. Instead, organizations under the banner of societies have emerged in various places. They rely on the government and shelter desperadoes. In name only,

He is trying to protect the environment and the people, but in reality he is scorning the people, doing many evil things, and acting like he is the master of the people."

"Yes." Yu Bianyun nodded, "The same is true in Meizhou. But I never expected that even the capital of Chengdu Fulu has such an arrogant military society. I only heard about it in the past, but when I saw it today, it really impressed me

Shocked. If this continues, I really don’t know what to do.”

Yang Shangyun is the head of the Shaoyang Sect of the Qingcheng Sect, and he can be regarded as a figure in the world. He knows a lot about military societies in various places, so he said: "Not only that, I also heard that there are some powerful people in these military societies. He also intends to conquer other societies and grow bigger and bigger. I see, some people even have evil intentions."

"Oh? Let me tell you which powerful societies there are." Yu Bianyun said.

Yang Shangyun said: "Nowadays, there are several powerful societies in each road, and the most powerful among them is the Xiaoxiang Palace on Jinghu North Road, which inherited the Ezhou Sword Society. The owner of the Xiaoxiang Palace is Shen Tian, ​​the former owner of the Ezhou Sword Society. Yang's son Shen Yuli." Speaking of this, Yang Shangyun lowered his voice and said: "Pindao also heard that Xiaoxiang Palace has penetrated into Chengdu Fulu recently and recruited several societies to become subordinates. I wonder if the Chengdu Daoma Society is also among them. .”

Yu Bianyun was thoughtful, as if he wanted to do something. But after a moment, he took out a banknote and put it on the table, and said to Yuan Jingyang: "Brother Yuan, you said you love money, I I’ll give you money. This is ten taels of money, how about you accept it?”

Yuan Jingyang had been listening to them talking about the military society, and he had been dozing off. Now when he saw the banknote, his eyes suddenly shone, and he stretched out his hand and said, "Thank you, Mr. Yu."

"Hey, wait a minute -" Yu Bianyun held down Huizi with a folding fan and said, "Logically speaking, I owe you thirty cents, but I gave you more than ninety taels more, but I want you to help with something. .”

Yuan Jingyang was anxious to get the money and patted his chest: "Just tell me what happened and I will take care of it."

Yu Bianyun stared at Yuan Jingyang's face and showed a weird smile, which made him feel terrified.

"I ask you to kill someone, do you dare?"

Hearing this, Yuan Jingyang was stunned, "Kill..."

"Why are you stunned? Haven't you already taken the precepts today? Besides, what I want you to kill is a wicked person."

Yuan Jingyang thought it right. He was a villain anyway, so he should help the government.

"Tell me who it is."

Seeing Yuan Jingyang's promise, Yu Bianyun told him that there was a small town thirty miles north of Qingcheng Mountain. There was a community in the southeast of the town called Jinglei Village. Previously, a thief had appeared in Meizhou and robbed a silver car. The government could not arrest him. Later, he It was known that this person was hiding in Jinglei Village. However, since Jinglei Village was in a gray area, it was inconvenient for the government to go in and catch the thief, so they issued a reward. If anyone could catch this thief, he would be rewarded with two hundred taels of silver alive and one hundred taels of silver dead. .Yu Bianyun is a restless person. After knowing about the reward order, he also wanted to catch the thief. He did not do it for the reward, but just wanted to become famous through this incident. It was just because he was a scholar and he did not have the ability to climb over the walls and defeat thousands of people. It is difficult to complete this kind of task with my kung fu. I met Yuan Jingyang today and thought that he was agile and good at shooting and might have the ability to kill thieves, so I offered him ten taels of silver to help me get the reward. If successful, fame and fortune If you don't get it twice, you'll just lose ten taels of silver.

After Yu Bianyun described the appearance of the thief, he handed the Huizi to Yuan Jingyang with a strange smile.

Yuan Jingyang accepted the money without thinking too much and said, "In that case, I will go now and promise to come back with the thief's head within three days."

After that, he dressed up and started on the road.
