Nine, the incident started - the next arrival

The so-called dark moon and high wind seems to be referring to the current situation of Linqing Mansion.

After Meng Runan came to Silver Hook Gambling House yesterday, Dong Tiankuo arranged a room for herself to stay in the back garden of the gambling house, saying that it would not be disturbed by the sound of the gambling house, so that she could stay here with peace of mind, Meng Runan wrote

After making a sound, he moved in.

During the day, Dong Tiankuo promised to send people to check the situation in Qijiazhuang, and Qi Song followed him. However, it was getting dark now, but there was still no news from these people. This made Meng Runan feel a little uneasy. After all, yesterday he

Having just experienced something like that, I can't help but think about things in the worst direction.

During this period, Dong Tiankuo also called people over twice. Seeing Meng Runan's appearance, he could only comfort him a few words, put down some clothes, eat some snacks, and left.

"Madam, don't be anxious. Our boss has sent the most skilled martial artists in the house."

The person talking to Meng Runan was the maid arranged by Dong Tiankuo, who mainly took care of Meng Runan's daily life.

Meng Runan sighed leisurely there, and then said to the maid: "I hope so."

"Madam is so beautiful, and the person she is looking for will definitely be auspicious and safe." The maid had a sweet mouth and gave Meng Runan a cup of tea while talking.

Meng Runan laughed happily after hearing what the maid said, and then said: "You little girl, you are really good at talking, but what does this beauty have to do with the auspicious person and heavenly appearance?"

When the maid saw Meng Runan smiling, she felt happy in her heart, so she continued: "Of course it does matter. My mother-in-law said that Madam's face like this can bring good luck to people."

Meng Runan knew that this maid was trying to make herself happy, so she laughed and cursed.

The maid pushed the snacks that Dong Tiankuo had brought to Meng Runan's side and said, "Madam, try this cake, but our boss specially brought it back from Hezhou."

Meng Runan herself is the daughter of a Hezhou salt merchant. She followed her father to Kyoto and met the man who promised her life. So when she heard the maid say the word "Hezhou", she felt a little emotional in her heart.

.

She couldn't help but feel sad again. The maid knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she apologized profusely.

Meng Runan waved her hand to the maid and said, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."

At this time, the gambling house in the front yard, because there was no curfew control in the Silver Hook Gambling House, the liveliness of the gambling house at night even exceeded that of the Kyoto Prefecture, which specially accommodated curfews.

A singing and dancing brothel for people who cannot return home after the ban.

Tianbao was still walking back and forth in the gambling house as before. If he encountered a rogue like Zhao Liu last time, he would ask him to leave the gambling house. Xu Heng stood on the second floor of the gambling house and looked down.

In the entire gambling house, prevent any blind person from doing something here. If you see it, let someone notify Tianbao below and ask him to lead someone to deal with it. If Tianbao can't deal with it, then he will take action for a while.

The other party.

As for Dong Tiankuo, he was still sitting in his rocking chair in the room deep on the second floor, drinking new tea brought this year and reading a book.

Xu Heng never understood Dong Tiankuo's habit. An underground leader who ran a gambling house always pretended to be a scholar. He had been following him for nearly ten years, and he had maintained this behavior for nearly ten years.

.

One day before, Xu Heng couldn't help but ask this question.

"Someone once said that I have killed too many people and should read a book to get rid of my anger." Dong Tiankuo replied calmly.

Seeing that there was nothing going on downstairs, Xu Heng entered Dong Tiankuo's room.

Although it was already night, Dong Tiankuo usually wouldn't sleep at this time.

"My boss is not sleeping." Xu Heng entered the room, casually grabbed a stool and sat down.

"I'm used to it, I can't sleep." Dong Tiankuo put the scroll in his hand on the desk and said to Xu Heng.

"Those people haven't come back yet." Xu Heng said to Dong Tiankuo while pouring himself a drink from the teapot on the table.

"What do you think?"

"You must have encountered some trouble. Do you want me to go take a look?"

Dong Tiankuo thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "No, you should keep an eye on the gambling house. I guess it will be more lively tonight. Then send someone to keep an eye on the back garden to prevent others from taking advantage of it."

When Xu Heng heard Dong Tiankuo's words, his expression tightened, and then he said: "My boss, are you saying someone is here to cause trouble?"

Dong Tiankuo laughed, and then said: "I'm not necessarily here to cause trouble."

Xu Heng's heart moved, but his body did not move and he still sat there.

"My boss..." Xu Heng hesitated, "Do you really want to help those two people?"

"What do you think?" Dong Tiankuo asked back. When he said this, Dong Tiankuo's expression was very indifferent. No one could tell from his expression what he was thinking.

Xu Heng thought for a moment and decided to express his thoughts, and then said slowly: "Qijiazhuang has huge influence in the world, especially the underground forces. It can be said that it covers the sky with one hand. Since that mysterious organization can be destroyed overnight,

Qijiazhuang, and it did it so quickly, its strength must be even more difficult to figure out. I think we still need to consider this matter carefully. Besides, the Silver Hook Gambling House was run by your boss.

The people from Qijiazhuang used a token to tell us what our Yingou Casino should do, so why do we feel that we are turning against customers?"

After Xu Heng said this, he secretly glanced at Dong Tiankuo, who was sitting back on the couch, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he didn't respond.

"What about Mrs. Meng and Qi Song?"

Xu Heng didn't know what Dong Tiankuo was thinking at this time, but he just thought that he was moved by what he said.

"Just let them leave early tomorrow morning, otherwise..."

When Xu Heng said this, his eyes became fierce, and anyone with a discerning eye could see what he was thinking - kill him.

Dong Tiankuo sneered and suddenly looked at Xu Heng. Just this one look made Xu Heng feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his whole body was extremely cold.

Xu Heng suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he did not dare to speak casually again.

Of course, Dong Tiankuo knew what Xu Heng said was right. He had run the Silver Hook Gambling House by himself and asked him to take action against the other party. After all, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"Dong, dong, dong" a rapid knock on the door sounded.

"My boss! Mr. Xu! What's wrong, Tianbao was injured."

Xu Heng glanced at Dong Tiankuo there and thought: "Someone really came to cause trouble."

Dong Tiankuo naturally heard these words, and waved his hand to Xu Heng, indicating for him to handle it, while he swayed leisurely on the recliner.

Xu Heng bowed to Dong Tiankuo and then went out.

When Dong Tiankuo saw Xu Heng going out, he slowly opened his eyes, and then took out the half stone token from his arms.

"Back then you said I was too violent and asked me to read more books, and I agreed. Then you said you asked me and others to bring the other half of the token to me, and I also agreed."

Dong Tiankuo glanced at everything in the room unconsciously, as if admiring the masterpiece he had acquired in half his life, and then continued quietly to the half stone: "But now I don't want to agree to it, what do you want to do?
Chapter completed!
