And the trap he laid based on the secret message really worked. After Redbeard stepped in, he was hit one after another, so that he was defeated and left.
Lu Zhao hurriedly led people to chase him, and happened to meet Bai Xiaochun on the way, and Bai Xiaochun joined the pursuit.
But Red Beard was not only cunning, but also highly skilled in martial arts. They lost troops and generals one after another, and they couldn't touch the corners of other people's clothes. Even Bai Xiaochun was injured.
The bow and arrow shot at Redbeard only made a clanging sound, just like striking iron, and the hair was of no use.
At this moment, Duan Gui appeared and instantly stabbed Red Beard to his core.
Therefore, this credit has nothing to do with anyone else, it all belongs to Duan Gui.
Moreover, it must not be a coincidence that Duan Gui appeared at that time and place by such a coincidence, otherwise ghosts and gods must have helped. Therefore, the secret letter must also have been written by Duan Gui.
This young man is unfathomable.
This is the consensus reached by the people from Wanli Escort Bureau.
During the entire banquet, Duan Gui explained many times that this was just their speculation and the fact had nothing to do with him. He killed Red Beard all by mistake.
But the more he said this, the more people in the escort agency believed in their reasoning. They thought it was just Duan Gui who was unfathomable and had a lot of money in his chest.
After dinner, Duan Gui hurriedly said goodbye and left. He no longer wanted to waste time on things that could not be argued with.
"Brother, why hasn't this kid come out? He won't be tortured to death by the people from the Wanli Escort Agency, right?"
At this time, the two Zhao Ba brothers were waiting for Duan Gui not far from the escort office.
Zhao Ba nodded: "It's not impossible. He might really be beaten to death. That Jin Dapeng is not an ordinary person. The people under him are also like wolves and tigers. When they know that Duan Gui is a beggar, We will definitely deal with him, but we won’t kill him.”
"Hey, then we still have a chance." Zhao Xian shrank his neck.
At this moment, the door of the escort agency suddenly opened, and a group of people walked out.
The leader was actually Jin Dapeng.
And standing next to Jin Dapeng turned out to be Duan Gui.
"Hey, this kid is not dead yet." Zhao Xian said in surprise.
"Don't worry, I think Jin Dapeng wants to drag him to the street and beat him up, so that the neighbors can see that he has nothing to do with this embarrassing thing. Tofu Xishi has done the same thing. Just wait and see."
When Zhao Ba said this, his men all showed happy expressions waiting to see the excitement.
At this moment, they saw an astonishing scene.
Jin Dapeng's body suddenly became shorter, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Duan Gui——
"Brother, what does this mean?"
"This, this, I don't know this."
While they were staring at each other, Duan Gui helped Jin Dapeng up, then turned around and left the escort agency, running this way.
The people in the escort agency also turned around and went back.
"Brother, that bastard Duan Gui is here, let's do it." Zhao Xian said excitedly.
Zhao Xian was a fool, but Zhao Ba was not. He saw that something was wrong.
He would never dare to mess with Jin Dapeng. Compared with Mr. Jin, he was nothing more than an ant at best.
Now Jin Dapeng actually kowtows to Duan Gui——
"What the hell, get out of here. This is so evil. I have to go back and think about it. If you meet Duan Gui in the future, try to avoid him."
"Ah, this-"
"What the hell, why don't you hurry up and leave."
Duan Gui didn't know at all that Zhao Ba and the others appeared at the door of the escort agency. As he walked away, he felt awkward in his heart. This thing made him so awkward.
Why is Uncle Liu's death all blamed on him?
Also, how did Uncle Liu die?
After thinking about it, he couldn't come up with any clues, but at this time, he remembered another thing, and that was the box in his arms.
Box!
After returning home, Duan Gui quickly took out the box and planned to see what was inside.
Inside the flat box, there was only a piece of white paper with a map on it, and nothing else.
"Could it be that the treasure map——"
The criminal thief Red Beard has been committing crimes for many years and must have accumulated a lot of wealth. Could it be said that Uncle Liu hid all this wealth?
After thinking of this possibility, Duan Gui quickly memorized the map in his mind and burned it. As for the box, it was just an ordinary iron box, and he still carried it with him.
Because Lu Zhao gave him two days off, he still didn't have to go to the county office for duty the next day, so he rested at home.
And because he was sad about Uncle Liu's death and didn't want to revisit his old place, he also took a leave from the brothel and stopped going to make extra money for the past two days.
Fortunately, since he took the fifty taels of silver, Duan Daming has not returned home. He may have gone somewhere to have a good time, and he is too lazy to care.
Instead, he became pure.
At noon the next day, Duan Gui took ten copper coins and bought ten meat buns, then gave eight to Uncle Zhong and Xiao Xiuer, and kept two for himself.
While I was eating steamed buns, there was suddenly a knock on the door.
He thought Duan Daming had returned drunk, so when he opened the door and took a look, he found two strangers.
One of these two people is a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, and the other is a silver-haired grandfather.
The old man was hunched over, holding a white handkerchief in his hand, covering his mouth and coughing constantly.
"Brother, excuse me, we are passing by. I want to ask for a bowl of water from your place. I wonder if it can be convenient, brother."
Duan Gui was also warm-hearted, and since the old man was so old, he quickly let the people into the yard, and then went to get them water.
He didn't notice that the old man looked at him with shock in his eyes.
"Ahem, cough, cough, it looks like it, it really looks like it, it's exactly the same!"
"Yes, Grandpa, this is too similar. It seems that we have found the right person this time. This person may be-"
"No, don't worry, we still need some evidence-"
When Duan Gui came out, they quickly shut up and stopped talking.
Duan Gui poured them two bowls of water, and then said politely: "You two, there is no hot water at home, so you two will have to use well water. I'm really sorry."
"This young man is kind and kind."
The old man praised quickly.
But while he was praising her, he kept staring at the back of Duan Gui's hand. After a while, he asked in a trembling voice: "Brother, why do you have such a large birthmark on the back of your hand?"
Duan Gui suddenly felt a little funny. Birthmarks are innate. How could there be so many reasons? How could he know how they were formed? This old man must be sick.
"I don't know, it's been there since I was born."
