Chapter 99 Serious Means
| Banxia Novel Exclusive |
*
Old Knife Boss is not in the villa now. Only his disciple Shi He and his partner Gu Song Jushi know his true identity. They are lying in ambush behind Ye Guhong. When Xiao Qingzhou dragged Ye Guhong to their hiding place, their expressions were very interesting.
Bu Zao can't be blamed for his few words. He can't think of any words to describe their expressions except interesting.
Maybe it's because he only feels saccharine.
After dealing with these two guys with relatively high status, Xiao Qingzhou took over the land and began to issue orders.
In the final analysis, it is to do the same thing he did in the Evil Valley. Evil people don't distinguish between good and bad, so Bu Zao has no pressure to give orders.
Ye Guhong was very frustrated and silently swept the floor with a broom. Ye Xue and Ye Ling were also sweeping the floor beside him.
Ye Ling was lively and talkative. She complained to herself that Xiao Qingzhou had come in without any notice and occupied the land without even knowing the reason why he did so.
Ye Xue said calmly, "Maybe he just wanted to do this."
Ye Ling said, "What good would it do him? Isn't the Evil Valley enough for him to be the king?"
Ye Guhong said faintly, "He said that too little is better than too much."
"So we are just a bonus!"
Ye Ling threw the broom away angrily, stared at it angrily for a moment, and picked it up silently.
Not far away, the young master of Wuzheng Villa was also sweeping the ground, holding the broom and drawing circles, his figure was languid and desolate, and the time around him seemed to have stopped.
Ye Ling glanced at him, retracted her gaze, and sighed deeply.
Bu Zao was looking for valuable things in the treasure house of Youling Villa. Mu Daoren had done a lot of bad things in recent years, and the people who defected to Youling Villa also brought a lot of good things, all of which were collected by Bu Zao.
The system had long been accustomed to the player's style of behavior, and quietly learned by the side. Bu Zao silently listened to its heartbeat broadcast, always having the illusion of teaching a child badly.
Neither Gusong Jushi nor Shihe was able to inform Lao Daobazi. At this time, Mu Daoren, who was in Wudang Mountain, had no idea that his house had been robbed, but as time went on, he would find something wrong.
Before that, Xiao Qingzhou had plenty of time to build up his prestige in Youling Villa.
*
Soon after Xiao Qingzhou entered Youling Villa, news of what Wu Du had done in the Western Regions spread to the Central Plains. There were many people in the Jianghu who liked to see the excitement and were not afraid of getting into trouble. This news spread from one person to ten, and no one knew who the source was.
After hearing this rumor, people who had interacted with Wu Du felt an indescribable sense of powerlessness.
Has Wudu forgotten that he is being hunted by Xue Yiren?
Don't take any mission!
Lengxue is very concerned about this matter. Wudu and Yu Tianbao are looking for Chongming's whereabouts for the mission of "capturing the owner of Wanwu Building alive". The two meet at the place where Chongming last appeared.
Lengxue was a little surprised by Yu Tianbao's existence, and cast a questioning look at Wudu.
"He is the young master of the Demon Cult, Yu Tianbao." Wudu introduced the two parties, "This is the Lengxue constable of the Six Gates."
Yu Tianbao was stunned: "You... have a good relationship"
Why do a killer and a constable seem to be so familiar ?
Wudu said: "He was my savior."
Lengxue said nothing, and this attitude was considered tacit consent.
He also had questions to ask. The rumors clearly said that the young master of the Demon Cult was taken hostage by Wudu and was not returned. Why did the two get along so well?
Wudu explained the cause and effect of the matter to Lengxue. As a dedicated killer, he concealed the identity and existence of Wang Lianhua. He mainly explained what he did in Luosha Cult and why he was traveling with Yu Tianbao.
Lengxue listened and pondered for a long time, feeling confused.
The actual situation should be very difficult to deal with... But Wudu finished it in a few words.
Yu Tianbao had no opinion on Wudu's words. His eyes turned back and forth between the two. He said nothing, but the doubt and curiosity in his eyes were obvious. Lengxue found
it difficult to match this young man who showed everything on his face with the young master of the Demon Cult.
He was silent for a moment, then asked Wudu: "Is your injury better?"
"It's healed." Wudu said sincerely.
Lengxue was relieved.
Xuejiazhuang did not allow the Six Gates to interfere in Wudu's affairs, so Lengxue had been leading people to deal with matters related to the killer organization that Xue Xiaoren had established, and had been dealing with Yidianhong.
Now Yidianhong had taken his former companions to the Salted Fish Sect, and Lengxue had also been there once. Senior Brother Wuqing was still there, and he had never left since he went to the Salted Fish Sect last time because of the incident with the Toothless Sect.
Without Wudu's guidance, no one could find the way to the inside of the Salted Fish Sect.
Even though Lengxue and Yidianhong had been there once, they were still in the dark after entering the forest.
Obviously, this is why the leader of the Salted Fish Sect let it go. He is confident that no one can get into the Salted Fish Sect.
Yu Tianbao saw that the two had something to say, so he took the money and went out to play, while Leng Xue asked the question he had always wanted to ask.
"Have you heard about your master's appearance?"
"I heard about it, but I didn't expect the leader to go to the Qingyi Building to cause trouble. It's possible that Huo Xiu has offended him in some way."
When Wu Du heard about the leader, he smiled, his eyes curved like crescents.
"...He took away a large part of Huo Xiu's assets."
Leng Xue said with difficulty.
"The head master must have his own ideas."
Leng Xue was impressed by Wu Du's filter for his head master. He and Wu Du met for the first time after the Xuejiazhuang incident. After thinking for a while, he asked: "Now there are still many people who think you know the whereabouts of Xue Xiaoren's inheritance. You must remember to act... carefully. What are your plans in the future?"
Even if he wanted to tell Wu Du to be careful, he was stuck after thinking about what the other party had done. Leng Xue's expression was unnatural for a moment.
Wu Du had a lot of troubles, Xuejiazhuang, Luosha Sect, and although the young master of the Demon Sect took the initiative to entrust Wu Du to take him out to play, the leader of the Luosha Sect might not give up - after all, Wu Du had snatched people from them.
Wu Du said, "I have a task that has been put aside for a long time. Fortunately, my employer did not blame me. I plan to complete the task as soon as possible."
"So... are you here to seek help from the owner of Chongming Tower?" Leng Xue thought of the rumor that Chongming appeared here.
Wu Du paused.
Leng Xue hesitated: "Isn't it?"
Wu Du nodded: "Yes."
Leng Xue was puzzled by his pause for a moment, and always felt that Wu Du did not seem to have said the whole thing.
...
Yu Tianbao once asked his father what items he needed to roam the world.
His father said that one must have money, two must have people, and three must be strong.
When Yu Luosha said these words, he didn't take them seriously at all, and was very casual, but Yu Tianbao regarded these words as a guide.
Yu Tianbao thought that he had hired a powerful killer as a bodyguard with money, which was all three points.
Wu Du was a very good bodyguard, but the only thing that made Yu Tianbao feel pity was that Wu Du was a bit boring.
He was reluctant to go to the casino, and Yu Tianbao had been holding back for a long time. Today, Wu Du and the cold-blooded captain had something to say, so he decided to go to the casino to have fun. Yu Tianbao
thought that his gambling skills were quite good. The only person in Luosha Sect who had defeated him many times was the bodyguard Awen. The confident young master Yu went to the casino with high spirits and won a lot at first. Feeling that he had good gambling luck, Yu Tianbao continued to place bets and gradually became crazy.
An hour later, he lost everything.
Seeing that he couldn't pay, the casino owner took him to a small dark room to "talk" with him, asking him what he could offer as collateral.
"Fingers, arms, or legs," the casino owner said with a smile, his eyes moving back and forth on Yu Tianbao.
"Or rather, eyes,"
Yu Tianbao said in a cold sweat, "I have money! You, you go to the Youfu Inn to find a young man, he has all my money--!" The casino
owner was puzzled when he heard this. They saw that the young man in front of them was generous, so they set up a trap to make him lose everything, but they didn't expect the other party to be so straightforward.
It seems that he still has a lot of money on hand.
Yu Tianbao was thinking whether it was because of his bad luck in gambling or because the guys in the church were too low-level. He didn't know that the leader in front of him was thinking about how to get more money from him.
It must be because the guys in the church were too low-level!
When Yu Tianbao came to a conclusion in his heart, the boss of the casino also had a plan. He smiled at Yu Tianbao and said, "Sir, what do you call me? If you ask someone to go to Youfu Inn to invite your friend, you have to make him trust us."
"My last name is Yu, and the man's name is Wu-Wu..."
Yu Tianbao was stunned. No matter how heartless he was, he knew that Wu Du's whereabouts should not be known to others, but...what was Wu Du's pseudonym?
He found that he had no impression of it at all.
Wu Du had told Yu Tianbao a pseudonym, but Yu Tianbao had ignored it and didn't think there would be a day when he would have to tell the pseudonym. Now the boomerang had hit him.
The casino owner repeated it with a look of doubt in his eyes.
"Wu"
"Wu Ya!" Yu Tianbao struggled to come up with a pseudonym he had just thought of. "His name is Wu Ya, he has a baby face, he is very tall, and his eyes are very round and bright. You will know who he is when you see him!"
The casino owner was skeptical, but Yu Tianbao didn't look like he was lying, so he comforted Yu Tianbao in a kind voice and asked him to play a few more games. At the same time, he sent someone to Youfu Inn to find the boy named "Wu Ya".
Yu Tianbao was used to being a tyrant in Luosha Sect. When he saw the other party's attitude soften, he immediately became arrogant and thought to himself: His father was right. He was rich and powerful. He
started to gamble again. He won and lost, but he didn't make any money. Yu Tianbao thought that Wu Du would bring money, so he didn't care.
Of course, he knew that the money in Wu Du's hand was the deposit he gave, but he didn't care. After all, as long as he returned to Luosha Sect, he would pay whatever he owed. At most , he would just pay off the debt.
... Bu
Zao knew everything about his side and was speechless for a long time.
Yu Tianbao really deserved a beating. Even if he lived longer and had more roles in the game plot, he would probably only want players to hit him more.
The system sighed there: [Cherish life, stay away from pornography, gambling and drugs.]
Bu Zao deeply agreed with it.
Leng Xue and Wu Du went for a walk outside and talked about the whereabouts of Chong Ming. Wu Du, who "had" to keep it secret for the sake of the mission, remained silent on the speculation, which made Leng Xue feel more and more uneasy.
When they returned to the inn, the visitor from the casino asked the waiter about "Wu Ya", and the embarrassed waiter's eyes immediately lit up when he saw Wu Du. The
visitor from the casino turned around and saw the tall, round-eyed boy behind him. He finally understood why the guest said "I knew it at first sight".
He could indeed be recognized at first sight, especially when he walked closer, he even had to slightly raise his head to meet the boy's eyes.
Although Wudu had a cute face, the man from the casino felt a little nervous.
He swallowed, moved aside, and told Wudu the whole story.
Wudu didn't respond yet, but Lengxue frowned slightly.
He knew very well that the money in Wudu's hand was Yu Tianbao's deposit, but Yu Tianbao, a young master of the Demon Sect, must have a lot of money on hand. How could he go out and lose it all in such a short time? Lengxue knew the shady
dealings in the casino very well. Yu Tianbao must still be losing money in the pit at this time.
He turned to look at Wudu, who looked calm, and said to the man from the casino that he understood and asked him to lead the way.
The man from the casino was even more surprised than Leng Xue. He looked at the weapons of the two men and said cautiously, "No weapons are allowed in the casino..."
Once gamblers get excited, a fistfight is nothing, so most casinos only allow people and money to enter.
Wu Du said, "Can I keep it?"
"Yes, yes."
"Thank you for leading the way." Wu Du looked serious, and then looked at Leng Xue with some inquiry in his eyes.
Leng Xue said, "I'll wait for you outside."
He was very worried. He felt that Wu Du's trip to the casino would not be peaceful.
Because Wu Du seemed to have never ended a thing peacefully.
Wu Du nodded.
The two followed the person who came to report the news to the casino.
It was already evening, and the street where the casino was located was always a mixed crowd. It was even more noisy at this time. The air was filled with some strange and unpleasant smells. From time to time, drunks stumbled by and bumped into pedestrians.
The germaphobic killer frowned, and soon after entering the street, he pulled up his mask, looking extremely patient.
Leng Xue silently moved in front of him, separating the drunkards.
Bu Zao was impressed by Leng Xue's thoughtfulness. What a cold-blooded person, isn't this a very warm heart!
[The system expressed its appreciation for the kindness of "Cold Blood."]
Even Brother Tongzi learned knowledge from Leng Xue. Bu Zao was relieved in his heart. The cold-blooded captain is a role model for our generation!
Although it was heartwarming, Bu Zao still had to do what he should do.
Yu Tianbao was now addicted to gambling. Bu Zao knew that this guy had a lot of bad habits and it would be impossible for him to quit easily. Therefore, if he could make him owe him a favor, everything would be easier to control.
It was not a good choice to establish a client-client relationship with Yu Tianbao, because Yu Tianbao, who was spoiled to the point of being lawless, would really regard himself as a god.
When they arrived at the door of the casino, Leng Xue was waiting outside the casino. Wu Du untied the dagger and put it down, and asked the other party to search him before he was led into the casino.
"I bet big!!"
Yu Tianbao's back was very conspicuous, and his voice was so loud that even his hair had the word "addicted" written on it.
"Master Yu, look who's here." The owner of the casino led Wu Du forward, smiling happily, "Master Wu Ya is here."
Wu Du seemed easy to talk to, and Yu Tianbao was easy to fool, so the owner of the casino thought he would definitely make a fortune.
Yu Tianbao turned around, his eyes were full of bloodshot, and he looked excited, still immersed in the tense and exciting gambling.
People in the Luosha Sect would not play so big with him. After all, the money gambled between them was circulated, and it was impossible to say who had more or less. Yu Tianbao spent money like water in the sect and never lacked money.
But it's different in this casino! It's exciting and satisfying!
Bu Zao looked at him silently. Yu Luocha really treats people like waste...
Yu Tianbao won fifty taels in the last game, but the dealer held back after seeing the money-giver coming. Yu Tianbao was very happy and felt that his craftsmanship was still very good.
After entering the small dark room, the candlelight illuminated the face of the person in charge, and the number he said made Yu Tianbao dumbfounded.
He thought that the deposit he gave to Wu Du should be enough to pay the money... But this number is not just more, it is much more.
Yu Tianbao hesitated for a while. The extra money must be paid by Wu Du, and he felt embarrassed in his heart.
Bu Zao was very calm. The boss had a smile on his face, but he was still on guard against him, afraid that he would not give him money. The guards outside the door were also on guard against him.
A certain cost can bring huge benefits. Wu Du did not hesitate when counting the money and handed over the banknotes very straightforwardly.
The boss was a little surprised by his straightforwardness. After a brief hesitation, he quickly took the stack of banknotes on the table into his arms.
He began to doubt the identities of the two people in front of him. His tone became more respectful than before. He gave them some small gifts, respectfully and politely invited the two to leave the casino, and said to them:
"Come back when you have time in the future!"
Yu Tianbao lowered his head and walked quickly, determined not to come to this broken casino again in the future.
He himself had a lot of self-respect, so it would be fine to ask Wu Du to use the deposit he gave to pay for the money, after all, he would be able to give Wu Du more money sooner or later... But asking Wu Du to pay for the money was really an insult to his status as the young master of the Demon Cult!
Young Master Yu's self-respect somehow played a role in such a small place.
Wu Du took back his short knife and some hidden weapons at the door, and walked out with Yu Tianbao.
"It's 'Wu Yu'." Wu Du reminded him.
"Ah"
Yu Tianbao looked up blankly, and then realized what this sentence meant - it referred to Wu Du's pseudonym.
"I know." He nodded.
Leng Xue, who was waiting outside the casino, came over and was surprised at the speed of the two people coming out. He realized that he had thought too much.
Yu Tianbao buried his head and covered his face, not daring to look Leng Xue in the face.
He felt very ashamed now, especially after Wu Du casually said that he had paid too much, he wanted to crawl into the ground.
Leng Xue was silent for a long time, and slowly said: "I'm glad you're fine."
Yu Tianbao was worried.
Wu Du curled his eyes and said: "Let's go back."
The three of them left the casino. Wu Du walked briskly on the way. Yu Tianbao felt even more ashamed of himself. Wu Du had come to see him despite his cleanliness, and he, as an employer, actually let Wu Du pay for it.
After returning to the inn, they didn't say much. After a simple wash, they went to bed - except Wu Du, who washed for a long time by himself, so long that Yu Tianbao and Leng Xue fell asleep, and Leng Xue heard a strange sound coming from the eaves in the middle of the night.
It sounded like the sound of tiles sliding down.
Bu Zao came back in the middle of the night and took a shower, then lay down on the bed and closed his eyes.
What was his was still his, so Bu Zao disguised himself and went to the casino again, winning all the money back to avoid any suspicion. The money he won back was 0.5 times more than what he paid.
The next day.
Leng Xue heard a piece of gossip.
In the casino he went to yesterday, someone won a large sum of money and ran away.
Leng Xue: "..."
He looked at Wu Du opposite him.
Wu Du had a calm expression, and his bright round eyes were full of calmness and friendliness.
Leng Xue pretended that he hadn't noticed anything.
