Chapter 294: Uninvited Guests at the Gambling House
Ji Shenfu's order quickly reached Yin Shisan's hands. The young man with a gloomy face looked at the secret order in front of him and sneered: "Find out the details first, and then make a decision? It's like a small family! But in the end This sentence does not need to be tied down, but it is somewhat adult-like!"
After saying that, Yin Shisan threw the secret order into the brazier beside him. The main reason why the temperature in the yard he was in was higher than the surrounding area and the grapevines could stay green was because there were many fire pots that were always burning day and night.
The reason for this arrangement is mainly related to the young man's skills.
At the same time, in the northern camp of Yinren Town, a person suddenly broke into the area at an extremely fast speed. The flying figure seemed to leave an afterimage in the air.
"Who is coming!" A guard wearing night clothes suddenly shouted sharply.
This loud shout really startled the man, and he thought to himself: There is no night light tonight, and I am wearing black clothes. This man is so powerful that I can even see him!
The visitor was none other than Qi Chengcheng, who had hurried back from Chunfeng Town.
In order to prevent misunderstanding, the funny boy had to slow down and shouted: "Don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand, we are one of our own!"
In this way, the other party also saw the young man's appearance clearly, and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Brother Qi!"
The funny boy was shocked. Could it be that he also knew this person? Although the voice sounded familiar, the surrounding area was pitch black and there was no face in sight. He really couldn't remember who the other person was.
The torches in the northern camp gradually lit up, and the commotion just now also woke up most of the people in the camp. Only then did Qi Chengcheng recognize the other party's identity when the torches lit up.
"Wu Xiquan? It's you!"
Under the firelight, the figure wearing black night clothes gradually became clear. It was Wu Xiquan, the guard in iron clothes. He was originally a member of the intelligence team following Zhao Yuntian. After Tie Xin's naturalization that day, three intelligence personnel, including Wu Xiquan, joined the team to protect Tie Yi.
The three of them each have their own strengths. Xia Mingfei is proficient in animal language and can communicate with various animals; Wu Xiquan is proficient in night vision and can observe in the dark; Dong Ke is good at medical skills and can be called the ultimate weapon for team operations.
"No wonder I found you, I thought I leaked my whereabouts myself!" Qi Chengcheng said helplessly.
The young man smiled and shook his head and said, "If I hadn't seen you, I wouldn't have been able to spot you just by hearing. Brother Qi's Qinggong is really powerful."
The funny boy waved his hand and muttered: "Stop talking nonsense, I have information to hand over to the superiors."
Wu Xiquan's expression condensed, he stepped out of the way and led the other party towards a large tent.
…
This night is destined to be an unusual night, with countless undercurrents surging, but no matter how unusual it is, a new sunrise will still come.
When the first ray of morning light falls on the walls of Luoye City, it heralds the arrival of a new day.
The curtains of the shops on the street were opened one after another, and the waiters in the hotel also removed the door panels and cleaned the steps in front of the door. However, among the many stores, there is one that is a bit unusual.
It used to be open for business long ago, but until today, the door panel on the door has not been removed. If outsiders saw this, they would think that the tavern had closed down long ago.
Fortunately, the big plaque at the door looks very new, and the four characters "Jianghu Tavern" are written sonorously and powerfully. The owner of this tavern must also be a very unique person.
Zhang Ming was not in the tavern at this time, but the tavern remained the same as before. The gentleman who settled the accounts was still there immersed in settling accounts, while the waiter and the cook were busy with their own affairs.
I guess shopkeeper Zhang is also a leisurely person in the tavern, otherwise he wouldn't be so insignificant. The store opened for business today, but it only took half an hour longer than usual, because the shopkeeper usually does the work of removing the door panels himself. The shopkeeper was not here today, but everyone was so busy that they forgot about it.
But what happened after that continued in an orderly manner.
At this time, Zhang Ming was already standing at the door of the gambling house.
The young man raised his head and glanced at the four characters "Shahe Gambling House", smiled slightly, and murmured: "Since it starts from the gambling house, let's end it from the gambling house!"
Through Yi Xifeng's narration yesterday, the young man naturally knew the whereabouts of Qin Hongyao, who was the owner of this casino. He still remembered that when the leading oiran woman asked him where his money came from, the young man always told her that he was an undefeated legend in the gambling house.
Looking back many years later, I will see that the young people of the past have long since stopped entering this gambling house and have become the brewers of the tavern. And the graceful girl also turned into a enchanting woman, but also became the boss of the gambling house.
"Master, what do you want to play?" A man dressed as a boy saw Zhang Ming coming in and immediately bowed to greet him.
Shahe Gambling House is the largest gambling house in Luoye City. Naturally, it is open day and night. It is a huge place, and people take turns to come and go, but the door is never closed.
Zhang Ming curled up the corner of his mouth and said in a deep voice: "I bet my life!"
The young man was stunned for a moment, and then he said with a smile: "I have been a broker here for many years, and I have seen gambling, gambling rooms, and gambling on wives and daughters! I have only heard of this kind of gambling. I have never seen it. Could it be this customer? Are you going to entertain me?"
The young man raised his eyes and glanced at the other party, nodded and smiled: "Oh? So you don't accept human life here? Haha, what a coincidence. Mr. Zhang has been gambling all his life and never looks at what the other party wants?"
Having said this, Zhang Ming paused, his expression changed, and he said sadly: "It depends on what I have!"
As he spoke, there was a sudden silence within one foot of the young man's body, and a powerful internal pressure spread out within this one foot radius, and the broker's boy happened to be enveloped in it.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The boy's face changed drastically, and he took a few steps back involuntarily. It wasn't until they left this area that the strange silence disappeared and the noise returned to before.
"This...this...hero, I...I...I"
The man dressed as a boy was frozen at the scene and could not speak. He could only say "Oooh" like a hen about to lay eggs.
"Are you also betting on your life?" Zhang Ming asked in a deep voice with cruel eyes.
Just these words, the man opposite turned pale with fright, and quickly waved his hands: "No, no, no!"
"Hmph! Then let's gamble. As a broker, you have rules here. How much is a life worth with you?" the young man asked slowly.
The boy was hesitant to say anything at first, but after being glared at by Zhang Ming, he immediately replied: "One life, one hundred taels!"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, the man regretted it and immediately changed his words: "No, no, hero, it's two hundred taels! No, it's three hundred taels!" At the end of the sentence, he was already crying, kneeling on the ground and begging: "My hero, please don't embarrass me. Just let it be worth whatever you think it's worth!"
The young man curled his lips and muttered: "One hundred taels? Is human life so cheap?"
After that, he grabbed the broker's boy, asked him to follow him, and walked towards a market.
