Guests come and go in the Zuirenjian Restaurant, making it a good place to gather news.
Mastering local news is the most basic need for a power to maintain its existence.
Naturally, Black Jiu would not have known that the restaurant had already been set up as a secret sentinel by Black Jiu.
When Shaoan fainted the bearded man, a secret sentry immediately notified Black Dove.
At this juncture, Black Dove suddenly appeared, and things were by no means simple.
…
A group of people walked into the store swaggeringly. "Little Er, find a seat for my elder brother!"
This group of people are all burly, indulgent in words and deeds, and have a real ruffian temperament. The leader is Black Dove.
Black Dove's men and horses are all organized based on interests. As the saying goes, "Money can make the world go round." Black Dove uses money to win over people who love money and have some skills, and use it for their own benefit.
There are many different rivers and lakes, and there are all kinds of people.
Some people rely on their skills to save people from fire and water. Some people practice martial arts just to strengthen their bodies and protect themselves. Some people use martial arts to do evil and dominate.
There is no difference between the Jianghu people who use people's money to eliminate disasters and the self-sufficient Jianghu people who have higher realms and who have lower realms. It's just that their personal pursuits are different.
Great kindness and supreme goodness are nothing more than "not asking everyone to do good, but asking everyone not to do evil."
A bald man, about forty years old, wearing a gray-yellow robe with a wide open collar on his upper body, was sitting at the head of the table. This man was Black Dove.
Black Dove glanced at the brother next to him.
One person immediately walked over to the man who was knocked unconscious by the sweat medicine, picked up his head, and poured a large bowl of cold water on his face.
Shaoan and Shisan didn't know each other's intention, so they didn't act rashly and just watched from the sidelines.
The man gradually woke up.
"Lu Zhou, how did I tell you?" Heijiu slammed the table and shouted at the man.
Lu Zhou suddenly woke up after hearing the voice.
"Brother Black Dove!" Lu Zhou's heart tightened and he pointed his finger at Shaoan, "Brother, it's him, he's the one who did it!"
There will definitely be no good fruits if the things assigned by Black Jiu are done badly. Lu Zhou now wants to blame Shaoan for the whole thing.
"Hmph! If you can't control yourself, can you let someone drug you!" Black Jiu glared at Lu Zhou, "If everything goes wrong, I'll leave you with nowhere to spend your money!"
The two brothers next to Black Dove had half of their swords drawn out.
"Brother, please spare my life. Please let me live." Lu Zhou knelt down and begged for mercy.
What matters now is not how to deal with Lu Zhou, who is having trouble doing things, but how to deal with the person who wants to take the bag.
Black Dove said: "Get out of here and I'll take care of you later."
"Didn't you hear that?" The brother next to Heijiu shouted viciously at Lu Zhou.
"Brother, have mercy on me, brother, have mercy on me!" Lu Zhouzhou said as he kowtowed to Black Dove.
Shaoan was still sitting at Lu Zhou's table, while Shisan was eating at the next table.
Most of the customers in the store had been scared away, but these two people were still sitting leisurely, looking very eye-catching.
Black Dove was holding a wine bottle in one hand and a wine glass in the other. He sat down next to Shaoan.
"You two, why don't you show your true colors to others? Could it be..." Black Dove asked.
Thirteen took the call and responded: "We brothers are born with ugly faces. We are afraid of scaring others when we go out."
He said this just to deal with it. And he dealt with it hastily. Naturally, Black Dove didn't believe it.
"Why are you two focusing on Lu Zhou's bag?"
"We looked at the tightness of the bag and were greedy for a moment. If it offends my brother, please forgive me." Thirteen lied.
Black Dove didn't look happy or angry, and he didn't know if he really believed it.
Black Dove said: "You two, I don't have any other intentions. I just want to make a deal with you."
Black Dove cares so much about the cloth bag, obviously this matter is not simple.
"We brothers are stupid and never make deals." Shaoan, this kid, has always been straightforward.
One of the people brought by Black Dove pulled out the knife with a "swish" sound and put it on Shaoan's neck.
"Brother, don't skip the toast and drink as a penalty!" This tone was extremely arrogant. The people around Black Dove must have always been arrogant.
The atmosphere in the store became tense, and Shaoan couldn't hold it any longer.
Chang Shisan suddenly stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Brother, I have something to say. Put down the knife first. My brother is timid and can't stand this."
The Zhanqing Sword has not been found. Maybe we can get some information from Black Dove's transaction.
Thirteen has not forgotten that now he is just an unknown gangster. The person sitting in front of him is a powerful local emperor.
Thirteen asked respectfully: "I wonder what the deal is, brother?"
"You two, just pretend you haven't seen what's inside the cloth bag. I'll give you two hundred taels of silver. How about that?"
Black Jiu's words were simple, and it was difficult for Thirteen to know what was hidden behind these words.
"Okay, we brothers are very happy to get free money. Brother, don't worry, keep your mouth shut, we understand." Thirteen finally agreed to the deal.
…
At present, it seems that if you keep an eye on Black Dove, you won't have to worry about not finding the Zhanqing Sword.
Lu Zhou didn't know what to do with Black Dove. Early the next morning, Lu Zhou swaggered out of Nanning City with a cloth bag.
All this was seen by Shisan and Shaoan.
"Shaoan, after Lu Zhou leaves the city, take it immediately and ask clearly."
"Leave it to me, Brother Thirteen, don't worry."
Shaoan followed Lu Zhou out of the city, while Thirteen continued to stare at Black Dove's movements.
…
There were dense trees on the outskirts of the city, and there was a narrow path in the middle. Lu Zhou was walking on the path with a cloth bag on his back and a self-defense weapon in his hand.
Suddenly a voice came from the woods: "Stop!"
"Who?" Lu Zhou stopped and looked around, looking for the source of the sound.
Shaoan jumped down from the tree and blocked Lu Zhou's path.
"Why is it you again! Are you still trying to make a bag? Aren't you afraid that the black dove will kill you!" Lu Zhou tried to scare Shaoan away with the black dove.
"Black Dove? I have never taken him seriously." After saying that, Shaoan took off his mask.
Lu Zhou recognized at a glance that the Zhanqing Sword was stolen from this person.
"It turns out it's you," Lu Zhou continued, "I took the sword, let's see what you can do to me!" Lu Zhou pulled out the sword and looked really powerful.
"How's it going? Do you think the medicine I gave you yesterday was just a sweat medicine?" Shaoan said in an evil tone.
Shaoan has done many things to tease people, and this time is no exception.
"Have you ever heard of Duangchang Powder? If you beg me now, I can consider giving you an antidote."
Duangchang Powder is a top-notch poison in the world. After drinking Duangchang Powder, if there is no antidote within three days, the person will die due to ulceration of the internal organs.
Lu Zhou was so frightened that he dropped the knife in his hand. He covered his stomach with both hands, with a frightened expression on his face.
Such a cowardly person who is afraid of death will certainly not keep secrets for others.
Lu Zhou told Shaoan all about Black Dove's plan.
In fact, the only medicine Shaoan gave him was Mongolian sweat medicine.
…
It turned out that Lu Zhou had already sold the Zhanqing Sword to Heijiu, and Heijiu was worried that Tianyun Mountain would cause trouble for him if he found out.
Lu Zhou was specially asked to pretend to be Zhan Qing with a cloth bag, take him out of Nanning City in full view of the public, and disappear without a trace.
In this way, the black market has completely distanced itself from Zhan Qingjian.
Zhanqing is the best among famous swords, and martial arts practitioners value weapons the most.
The Tianyun Mountain branch has been looking for Zhan Qing, so Black Jiu naturally knew that accepting Zhan Qing would bring trouble to him.
So he used Lu Zhou to put on a good show.
What Lu Zhou said about Black Dove making him disappear was by no means that simple.
Black Dove has always been ruthless, and the dead are the safest. After the play is over, killing people and silencing them is the real plan of this kind of person.
The killer must have been waiting for Lu Zhou in the distance, but Shaoan stopped him one step ahead.
The target of silence was not only Lu Zhou, but also the two boys in the inn who broke the cover, Shisan and Shaoan.
