Ma Tao and the others who hurriedly returned to where they were staying kept on walking, watching to see if anyone was following them. Fortunately, they didn't find anything wrong for the time being, but everyone didn't dare to be careless, and they still took three steps and looked back. , two steps and one pause, observing.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
After leaving the castle for some distance, Liu Tong, who also hurriedly walked back, saw that everyone looked heavy and asked in confusion.
At this time, Uncle Guang's legs and feet had improved a lot. He was no longer as stiff and unable to move as he had been at the beginning. There was no big problem in walking. Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi let him go and let him walk on his own in order to restore the flexibility of his muscles as soon as possible. .
When Liu Tong asked, Ma Tao glanced at him with his eyes as he walked, and saw confusion in his eyes, knowing that he didn't know anything about it.
"Oh, don't ask. You can leave when we get back. We won't give you less money."
Xiao Jinzi replied impatiently.
Liu Tong didn't dare to talk back to Xiao Jinzi, especially since their expressions seemed to be covered by a dark cloud. Even if he didn't know why, he could still realize that something might have happened, and it was still very troublesome. , didn’t say much at the moment, and quickly led them back.
"Who is that man with long hair standing by the bridge?"
Ma Tao rolled his eyes, wondering if he could recognize him.
"Who? Some man with long hair?"
Liu Tong didn't notice the man standing at the bridge of the castle, so he didn't know who Ma Tao was talking about.
"Then have you heard of Venomous Fangs?"
Gao Han, who was also on his way, heard Ma Tao's words and asked the same question.
Ma Tao cursed secretly. Uncle Guang said that their secluded village was attacked by the Black Mamba's fangs. Why didn't he think of asking Liu Tong about that fang? He was a native of the area. More or less, you should always know something. If you know these things in advance, this Hongmen Banquet can be completely avoided. Although it seems that there is no loss to myself and others, the development of the matter has become passive.
This is why Ma Tao hurriedly returned to his residence and packed up his things to leave. Originally, the enemy was in the light and his side was in the dark. Now everything is reversed. In the enemy's base camp, even if he is strong, he will eventually suffer a loss. He must do it as soon as possible. Leave, this is what Ma Tao thought and did.
"Fangs! Do you also know about Fangs?"
When Liu Tong heard Gao Han mention the word "venomous fang", he became very excited, and his face was filled with pride and pride from the bottom of his heart.
Gao Han glanced at Ma Tao calmly and then said, "Have you heard that these fangs are very powerful?"
"You all know that this place is governed by the Black Mamba, the largest business alliance. The fangs are the most mysterious core of the Black Mamba. Let me tell you this, almost all the important resources and intelligence of the entire Black Mamba. Missions, collection, publishing, and acquisitions are all completed by Venomous Fangs. Each one of them is an elite and proud of themselves. As for the patrol guards you see now, although they are also Black Mambas, they have nothing to do with Venomous Fangs. Fabi, when he was at his most glorious, members of Venomous Fang were all over the world. Wherever there were businessmen, there were Venomous Fangs..."
Liu Tong said excitedly as he walked, as if he was a member of the Fangs.
Ma Tao understood. This poisonous fang agency is a bit similar to a secret service agency. It specializes in collecting all intelligence and information that is useful to them, even assassinations, and even espionage activities. This is a group of guys living in the dark world, but their skills They definitely all have extraordinary strength.
As he spoke, Liu Tong's excitement got over, and he turned a little regretful and said, "It's over now. I don't know what the fangs in other places are like, but since the big leader disappeared, the fangs in Shura Hall have become more and more popular." The Venomous Fangs are divided into two factions. One party advocates the search for the big leader, and the other party advocates recommending a new big leader to lead the Venomous Fangs. However, because many Venomous Fangs can only recognize their own upline, only the big leader knows the specific number of people, which leads to I don’t even know myself or my people, and my strength has been drastically reduced.”
Finally heard the news about this big leader, and everyone finally understood the current situation of the Shura Palace black market, which was really chaotic.
"How did the big leader disappear?"
Gao Han then asked again.
"Just say it"
Liu Tong shook his head helplessly and replied, "I was here the first day, but suddenly he disappeared, and I haven't heard from him since."
After hearing this, several people roughly understood that it was precisely because of the disappearance of this big leader that Yan temporarily took over all matters.
Gao Han was still asking, but they had already arrived at the hotel. They had no choice but to pack their things quickly and leave here as soon as possible.
Taking out a G from his pocket, Ma Tao gave it to Liu Tong without even looking at it.
"This... I can't ask for this money. After all, you haven't entered the castle, so the transaction between us cannot be calculated."
As soon as he saw Ma Tao walking towards him holding a handful of G, Liu Tong knew that this was money for him, and immediately stretched out his hand to push it away.
"It's our fault that we didn't go. I can't blame you. Just take it. Let me say something to Xiaoluobo and ask him when you get back next time."
Ma Tao couldn't help but put the handful of G directly into Liu Tong's hand.
"This...you want to leave?"
Liu Tong heard from Ma Tao's tone that they were leaving, but he didn't understand why Zai Hao was leaving in such a hurry. He wanted to ask, but he opened his mouth, but no question came out.
Although these few days of getting along have fully demonstrated the kindness and generosity of the people in front of me, I am just a small black market guide. They are all proud bounty hunters. What right do I have to let them stay? Isn't it too arrogant for me to say this? It may also make others think that I said it just to make more money from them. Ma Tao and the others are good people. It's amazing to meet such good people like them these days. Tian's greatest luck and care, Liu Tong didn't want to leave a bad impression in the hearts of these people.
“I’ll leave as soon as I finish cleaning up.”
Ma Tao nodded and looked around again with his eyes.
"Then let me, Kuai Leg Tong, lead the way for you one last time and finish the business that I should complete."
Liu Tong did not and did not intend to ask why, and showed a smile.
Ma Tao hesitated for a moment, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder hard, acquiescing to his approach, turned around and walked towards the hotel.
When Ma Tao entered, Liu Tong looked down at the G's in his hands and realized that there were more than 200 G. He was filled with emotion again.
"Is your name Kuai Leg Tong?"
At this moment, a voice so soft that it chilled people's bones sounded from beside them.
Liu Tong, who was in a daze, was startled. He staggered and took two or three steps forward before he could regain his footing. Looking back, he saw that there were several more people in the place where he was standing. The leader was A man with a slender figure, only half of his face was exposed, and the other half was completely covered by his long hair. Although the exposed face looked quite attractive, this person's His face was really too pale, as white as a piece of white paper, without any color. There were several people following behind him, all looking at him coldly. They should be this person's subordinates.
When did these people come and when did he stand there without noticing it at all? What was even more frightening was that there was no one at the door of the hotel where there were originally many people around. Only he and the person in front of him were left. Man and his men.
"You... you... who are you and what are you going to do?"
In panic, Liu Tong shook his hand, and the handful of G fell to the ground. He wanted to squat down and pick it up, but he did not dare to take his eyes away from these strange people in front of him. He looked at these people warily. At this time, There was no one around, and Liu Tong was afraid that they would suddenly rob him of the G he had dropped on the ground. He was even more afraid that someone would kill him if he revealed his wealth.
Unexpectedly, this man with only half his face exposed didn't even glance at the G's scattered on the ground. Instead, he looked at him with a strange smile. Such a pale face was adding to the confusion. With his weird appearance and this smile, Liu Tong was really frightened in this underground world that was not very bright.
"You...you...are you a human or a ghost?"
The trembling Liu Tong pointed at the person in front of him and asked.
"You don't need to know who I am, but I know that you have a nephew who is at home now, right? It's really irresponsible of you as an uncle to leave a ten-year-old child alone at home."
The visitor raised his lips slightly, stared at him playfully, and said in a sinister manner.
"You...what did you do to the little carrot!"
The man mentioned radish. Liu Tong didn't know where he got the strength from. He forgot about his fear at the moment. He took a step forward and reached out to grab the man's collar. Unexpectedly, before his hand could touch him, When the man took off his clothes, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen. Then he sat down on the ground and was actually kicked out.
"Don't thank me. If I hadn't needed you again later, I would have killed you just now."
The man snorted coldly, lowered his head and looked at Liu Tong, who was kneeling on the ground two or three meters away from him, holding his lower abdomen in pain and breaking into a cold sweat.
"You...you...what are you going to do? Don't hurt him, he's just a child."
Liu Tong, who was kneeling on the ground, spit out a mouthful of bloody acid water from his stomach. At this time, he already knew that he was no match for this person. He could only pray that they would be merciful and let go of the ten-year-old little carrot. .
"do not worry"
Half of his face immediately smiled, and then he slowly squatted down, looking at Liu Tong who was still kneeling on the ground. Then like a magic trick, suddenly, there was a pistol with a silencer in his hand, and he used a cold The gun touched Liu Tong's forehead, and then said, "As long as you are obedient, your nephew and you will be fine."
"I am obedient, I am obedient, I will listen to whatever you say."
Liu Tong didn't dare to disobey him. He stared at the black muzzle with a hint of smoke, felt the cold touch on his forehead, and nodded like a little chicken.
"very good"
Half of his face then reached out again. This time he did not take out a weapon but used his hand to pull down the collar of his clothes, revealing a tattoo under his neck.
"Do you know what this is?"
asked with half a face.
Seeing the snake-shaped tattoo with a bloody mouth on this person's skin, Liu Tong stared as if he was struck by lightning, stared at the tattoo and nodded.
As a local of Shura Temple's black market, he naturally knew what this tattoo represented. Unexpectedly, he had just said it and actually met him. Yes, this snake-shaped tattoo with a bloody mouth is the core of the Black Mamba organization. The representative symbol of poisonous fangs, almost all locals know this symbol and understand the meaning it represents.
"I think you already know my identity. My name is Krait. What you need to do is to bring the guests you have been serving these days to aisle 4. Then you can leave."
Krait said with a smile.
"You are going to..."
Liu Tong was suddenly shocked and looked at the guy in front of him who called himself a krait with horror on his face.
Channel 4, 4, corresponds to the word "death", which is not very auspicious, so Channel 4 of Shura Palace is specially used for executing people. This is true for those who grew up in the black city of Shura Palace or have stayed there long enough. They are all here, allowing themselves to bring Ma Tao and the others to that place. The purpose is self-evident.
"Have you forgotten the rules a guide should have? If you shouldn't ask, don't ask."
Krait let go of his hand and let the tattoo on his neck be covered by his clothes again, then reached out and patted Liu Tong's cheek, who was a little scared.
"It's done. You and your lovely nephew are fine. If you do it wrong, you know the consequences very well."
The krait immediately stood up, glanced at the entrance and exit of the hotel, then turned and left, leaving Liu Tong, who was still stunned, staring blankly in the direction the krait left.
They are people with fangs.
Xiaoluobo was caught by them.
They want to kill Ma Tao and the others.
On one side are Ma Tao and others who generously helped and saved his life, and on the other side are the fangs of the Black Mamba. They also caught Xiaoluobo and threatened him with his life. In the end, it was Ma Tao who betrayed his kindness and vengeance for his generous help. Regardless of the young life of his nephew Xiaoluobo, who is only ten years old, he can be said to be like a beast. Liu Tong is in a dilemma and does not know what to do.
"Hurry up and hurry up. If you let them notice something is wrong, we guarantee that the first one to die will be your nephew."
One of the subordinates left behind by Krait stretched out his hand and pulled Liu Tong up from the ground. After confirming that he could stand properly, he continued, "Think about the life of that child. He is your nephew, and Those are just strangers who may never be seen again after today. You can weigh it yourself, and pick up all the G's on the ground quickly."
"Bring this with you"
Another of Krait's subordinates reached out and put a black metal ball only the size of a fingernail into the pocket of Liu Tong's clothes.
Then, when Ma Tao and others of Krait's subordinates suddenly appeared at the door, they bumped into him. They looked at each other and dispersed.
All this is a long story, but it only took a few sentences. In less than a minute or two, things had already happened.
Which one is more important...
Which one is more important...
These four words kept repeating in Liu Tong's mind. Although these people were gone, he knew that the man who called himself Krait and his subordinates would not go far. I am afraid they are somewhere nearby. Corners watched themselves to make sure they were following their instructions.
Liu Tong's mind went blank. He remembered that someone finally told him to pick up the G on the ground, so he squatted on the ground and started to pick up the G like a robot.
Pieces of G were picked up one after another, and there were nearly 300G in the palm of his hand. Liu Tong's eyes heated up when he saw the G that could not be held in his hand, and he couldn't help but check the moist corners of his eyes with his hands.
"What are you doing?"
At this moment, Xiao Jinzi, who was the first to come out, was the first to walk out of the hotel with his backpack on his back. He immediately saw Liu Tong squatting on the ground and looking at the G in his hand in a daze. Xiao Jinzi felt strange and walked forward. I took a closer look at the handful of G's in his hand and asked curiously when I saw there was nothing special about it.
"Ah! Nothing"
Liu Tong was startled and found Xiao Jinzi standing next to him. When he turned around, Ma Tao and others also started to leave carrying their own backpacks.
"Why are you crying?"
When Liu Tong looked up, Xiao Jinzi immediately noticed that his eyes were slightly red and glistening.
Liu Tong quickly rubbed his eyes with the sleeves of his clothes and explained, "You always give us more, and this time you gave us so much more. Just now...I...I...I was a little touched."
Liu Tong wanted to tell what had just happened, but he immediately thought of the black metal ball the size of a fingernail that was placed in his pocket.
Obviously, that thing must be something like a listening device. It is very likely that as soon as he opened his mouth, the life of the little carrot over there was brought to an end. Thinking of this, Liu Tong put the words on his lips again. I swallowed this idea.
"It's only 300G. It's nothing to us. With this money, I believe your life will be better."
Ma Tao walked up to him, glanced at the handful of G's in Liu Tong's hand, then patted his shoulder hard, then turned back to look at the others and said, "Are you all here?"
"Done"
Gao Han also looked around and then said.
“Leave now”
Ma Tao, who was standing at the door of the hotel, habitually glanced at the pedestrians at the door of the hotel and found that there were not as many people as usual. He frowned and then looked at Liu Tongtong, "I have to trouble you to take us to aisle 7. The sooner the better”
Now that it has been exposed, every minute of treatment is full of danger. Since there is danger, you must leave as soon as possible. If you can't leave, you can only fight to the death with your most powerful weapon. So, return as soon as possible. The most important thing right now is on the chariot.
"Aisle 7? OK"
Liu Tong looked at Ma Tao and nodded.
"Then let's go"
Gao Han said.
"Let's go..."
Liu Tong walked towards the exit passage step by step with somewhat stiff legs. Because there was something on his mind, his moving speed was not only not as fast as usual, but also much slower.
"What's wrong?"
Ma Tao, who was following him, noticed that his energy was a little sluggish, and he seemed to be worried and walked a few steps to ask side by side with him.
"ah!"
Liu Tong glanced at him hurriedly and said hurriedly, "I just... I didn't expect you to leave so soon. In fact, there are many interesting places here, right! There are many good places here that you have never been to. Well, otherwise, don’t leave today.”
Liu Tong, who was sweating slightly on his forehead, forced a smile, but the smile looked a little weird and awkward.
"That's it. It's okay. Let's do it next time. We'll come back to find you next time."
Ma Tao stared at him for a while, then smiled slightly.
"Either... or... I'll take you to the weapons market first. Didn't you want to buy weapons before? Luo Bao is young and may not be able to find a place. How about I take you to see it again? I guarantee there will be some. Good stuff”
As the exit of the exit got closer and closer, Liu Tong suddenly stopped and asked Ma Tao with a stiff smile.
Gao Han looked at Liu Tong in front of him, then looked at Xiao Jinzi and Sister R without saying a word. As for An Ruo, she kept her head lowered and was led by Xiao Jinzi.
Hearing this, Ma Tao also stopped and turned his head to stare into Liu Tong's eyes for a while. Although he was smiling now, it felt strange and awkward, especially as his eyes became more and more blurred. red.
Ma Tao looked over, and Liu Tong didn't dare to look at him. He could only blink frequently to relieve his inner struggle and guilt.
"Next time, to be honest, we have encountered something now and must leave here immediately. When we come next time, you will take us to choose carefully and add radishes. I guarantee that you will be indispensable when the time comes."
Ma Tao looked at each other for a while and sighed.
"Ah, that's it..."
Obviously knowing that there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire ahead, Liu Tong is screaming in his heart. He wants to delay, and he can delay it for one minute. He really doesn't want to take Ma Tao and the others to Channel 4, but he has no choice. The people with Venomous Fang must have It has been arranged at the No. 4 channel for a long time, and it is just waiting for me to give it away. Do I really want to be someone who repays kindness with hatred and is worse than a beast? But if we don’t do this, what will happen to the little carrot’s life?
Liu Tong had no idea how he walked these few steps, as if he had lost his soul, and his mind went blank. Liu Tong didn't suddenly wake up until he stepped at the door of the first passage.
"Strange, why is there no one here?"
Looking at the doorways of No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, and even No. 5, 6, 7, and 8, all the entrances are dead silent. Even the usual black market guides have disappeared. Only a few familiars are at the door of No. 4. The figures in the crowd were shaking, and Xiao Jinzi asked a strange question, and subconsciously pulled An Ruo, who had been holding his hand. The girl An Ruo still lowered her head and let Xiao Jinzi lead her away without saying a word. The long black hair was scattered, just covering her cheek.
"But...but...maybe Channel 4 is easier to walk through."
Liu Tong stuttered a bit when he spoke.
