When I subconsciously touched the ring, Qingyandiao slapped the table: "Master Beile, my brother came to you to do something, are you just fooling people like this? Is the place where the ring comes from, a place where people can go?"

Ning Beile said with a smile: "You are wrong about that. What Mr. Ye wants is a place where evil happens."

The blue-eyed eagle's eyes widened: "Brother, is your house going to be filled with evil spirits?"

"Yeah!" I nodded and said, "Others don't dare to live in a house like that, but my master dares to live in it."

When the Blue Eyed Eagle was about to speak, he seemed to have figured out something, so he simply picked up the tea on the table and drank it without saying a word.

I looked at Ning Beile: "Master Beile, can you tell me about that place?"

Ning Beile said: "That place is called Baofeng Building. It is right behind Lin Hetang's shop. It is neither far nor close to Lin Hetang. Baofeng Building and Lin Hetang use a waterway, so The toad probably ate the blood jade finger in Baofeng Tower and then crawled to Lin Hetang."

I recalled it and said, "I was standing in the courtyard of Lin Hetang at that time. Why didn't I see the Baofeng Tower?"

"Because Baofeng Tower cannot be seen." Ning Beile replied: "The strangest thing about Baofeng Tower is that you have to go around Lin Hetang and stand at the back wall to see it. Otherwise, no matter if you look at it from the street No matter how many times I walk, I still can’t see the three-story Baofeng Tower.”

I couldn't help but gasped: "Is there a formation outside Baofeng Tower?"

"I don't know about that." Ning Beile said: "A few years ago, after I bought Baofeng Building at a low price, I only went there once and never dared to go there again. I just wanted to find someone to blame. I wanted to cash out the Baofeng Building, but unfortunately, I never found a buyer."

I pondered: "Master Beile, I grew up in Abacus City, why haven't I heard of Baofeng Building?"

Green-Eyed Eagle said: "The Baofeng Building was originally a casino. The treasure-eating game there has been filled with evil spirits since the beginning. People on the streets nearby didn't dare to tell anyone if they knew about it. If they did, they would be in bad luck. What happened to the Baofeng Building? I don’t know much. I’m a brother today, so I’ll tell you as much as I know. The rest, I have to tell you, Lord Beile.”

The blue-eyed eagle glanced at Ning Beile: "You speak first, or I speak first."

"You come first, you come first!" Ning Beile held up the tea cup with a smile, which was a sign of weakness for Qing Yan Diao.

The blue-eyed eagle laughed: "I agree."

"Chibaoju" is a slang term for gangsters in Abacus City, which means taking money from the casino.

I have to say that the gangsters in Abacus City are a headache for businessmen, but the people really don't have much dislike for them. To them, being called a "gangster" is both a profession and an identity. If they dare to call themselves a gangster, they must abide by the rules of the industry. They would not bully ordinary people or harass their neighbors, but they would not hesitate to extort money from businesses.

The treasure-eating game is a method aimed at casinos.

The gangster who wants to take advantage of the treasure game goes to the casino and explains his intention. The casino owner will naturally give him some problems. The lightest one will be a beating. The bones in his body will be broken. The gangster can't make a sound. If he makes a sound, he will lose. If you can survive it, you will be a hero. The casino will be responsible for treating your injuries, and you will get a piece of regular money from the casino every month.

However, this money is not free. There is something going on in the casino, and the gangster has to come forward to solve it. Fight fiercely with others, and when the lottery is drawn, the gangster has to go first. To put it bluntly, it’s like selling your life to the casino.

Qingyan Diao drank tea and said: "To talk about Baofeng Tower, we have to start from the time when the Qing Dynasty was still alive. When Baofeng Tower was built from the ground, many people were guessing what kind of business Baofeng Tower would do. . Later, I finally found out. The Baofeng Building is connected to the Qing Building, a casino, and an opium den. Who wouldn’t be jealous of such a big deal?"

"Back then, when Baofeng Building opened, it was really big. There were a lot of people who were holding back their energy to eat Baoju. I have to say that the second shopkeeper was also a ruthless character. The day before the opening, he posted a sign in front of the door. There is a notice, if you want to win the treasure game, you must pass three levels. Those heroes who can pass will get double the money from Baofeng Tower. Those who can't pass, don't complain if they die."

"We are all bastards in Abacus City. Who can be afraid of death? That day, there were more than ten people who went to the three levels of Zhibao Bureau. As a result, these bastards who usually cook and cook without even frowning , none of them could pass through the three levels of the Second Shopkeeper, and they all folded at the door of Baofeng Building."

"The three gates of Baofeng Tower were set up for five days. More than 30 people were killed and injured, but no one could take advantage of this treasure. The gangsters in the city also stopped."

The gangsters in Abacus City have dignity when winning or losing, and they pay attention to being honest in their work. They will not do evil things secretly even if they can't take advantage of the situation. Doing so is tantamount to losing the reputation of gangsters, which is more embarrassing than giving up in a fight. Not only was he looked down upon by his peers, but even the beggars would spit on his face.

I wondered: "What skills did Baofeng Tower use to defeat so many gangsters in the first place?"

The Blue Eyed Eagle shook his head and said, "I can't tell. It's been too long. No one knows what the second shopkeeper used back then."

"Since the opening of Baofeng Tower, people have been making money every day! What's even more sinister is that life is openly gambled in Baofeng Tower. If you win, you can get a sum of money that you can't spend in half a lifetime. If you lose, you have to keep your life. Go down. During that time, Baofeng Tower was pushing people to death almost every day."

"Later, I heard that Baofeng Tower held a big gambling game. In that closed-door gambling game, Baofeng Tower opened its doors after three days of gambling, but there were only dead people in Baofeng Tower."

"I heard that when I entered the Baofeng Building, it was like going to the eighteenth level of hell. From the second shopkeeper to the gamblers, there were 200 to 300 people who died. Even the bosses felt their scalp numb after entering. Since then, Baofeng Tower has been completely closed."

"It is said that the people who collected corpses in Baofeng Tower were afraid that they left a lot of things behind. After Baofeng Tower was closed, ghosts would always go back to look for things. People nearby would encounter ghosts who went back to look for things from time to time. There are many people who are scared to death and crazy."

"After a few years, things from Baofeng Tower began to flow out. You can always see things from Baofeng Tower flowing out inexplicably on nearby streets. No one who holds those things will survive. . Some people have even implicated the whole family."

I couldn't help but ask after hearing this: "How do you know those things came from Baofeng Tower?"

Green-Eyed Eagle explained: "Everything that came out of Baofeng Tower was filled with blood. The color of the blood was just like the blood that had just been dripped on it. It was bright red. Moreover, when you hold those things in your hands, they are as cold as ice cubes. Biting to the bone. As long as it has these two characteristics, it must have come from Baofeng Tower."

I pondered for a moment and then asked: "Didn't the shopkeeper just say: Can we find someone to deal with it? Who does he want to find?"
