Volume 1 Sunrise in the East and West Mountain Chapter 36 Fire
Wen Budao smiled: "In this way, Lu Zhutou has already arranged my back road?" ”
"Take people's money and eliminate disasters with people." Lu Hong said: "Since I want to take your money, I naturally have to help you think of a way out." Boss Wen, I don't know if you agreed to my proposal? ”
Wen Budao thought for a moment and said softly, "I tell you the whereabouts of that silver now, and you can let me go?" ”
"As long as I'm sure what Boss Wen said is true, I will naturally untie your shackles, and I won't care where you go." Lu Hong stood up and took two steps closer to Wen Budao: "If Boss Wen is willing, he can tell me the whereabouts of the silver now, so that I can let you escape early." ”
Wen Budao sighed: "Wen has also been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and he knows that people's hearts are sinister..... Of course, it doesn't mean that Lu Zhutou must have bad intentions. It's just that if I were the head of Lu and got the whereabouts of that money, I would definitely not show mercy to my subordinates, and I would definitely kill people. Looking at Lu Hong's eyes, he smiled and said, "How can I be sure that the head catcher will not kill me?" ”
The corners of Lu Hong's eyes jumped, and at this moment, he heard laughter coming from outside the door, and then a voice came in: "Head catcher, I just said, this person is cunning, you can't catch his handle, and if you want to ask the answer from his mouth, it is as difficult as heaven." As soon as the words fell, a figure slowly walked into the house, burly and strong, and it turned out to be Qiao Leshan, the righteous brother of Wen Budao.
Wen Budao saw Qiao Leshan come in, without the slightest surprise, his face did not change, and even said with a light smile: "Leshan, you should have come a long time ago, why bother Lu Zhutou." ”
Qiao Leshan actually saluted Wen Budao: "Big brother! ”
"It's not easy for you to call me big brother." Wen Budao smiled: "Find a place to sit by yourself." ”
Qiao Leshan nodded and said with a smile: "Big brother has always been good? ”
"Okay." Wen Budao also nodded: "You should have been paying attention to my movements for the past six months." Although the place is a little smaller, there is no need to worry about it, and it is easy to eat and dress warmly. ”
Qiao Leshan smiled and said, "Big brother is doing well, then I will rest assured." He sighed and said: "It's just that my sister-in-law has been washing her face with tears for the past six months, worried that my eldest brother will suffer in prison. ”
"I understand." Wen Budao was very considerate and said: "You have never found the silver in the basement, so naturally you don't have a lot of money in your hands." ”
"Big brother, can you tell me where that money is?" Qiao Leshan smiled bitterly: "In the past six months, I have searched every corner of the gambling house, and I have moved every brick in the basement to find it, but I have never found the slightest clue." ”
Wen Budao was silent for a while, and finally said: "Leshan, as of this month, we have known each other for six years and three months, I should be right?" ”
"That's right." Qiao Leshan nodded.
Wen Budao said again: "The Golden Hook Gambling House can lay down a piece of the country in Turtle City, you have made great contributions, along the way, you and I have suffered a lot together, and have suffered a lot, if it weren't for you and me, the Golden Hook Gambling House would not last for half a year, and it may have ceased to exist." ”
"So the eldest brother remembers?" Qiao Leshan sighed: "As the saying goes, people can share hardships but not prosperity, big brother, you really can't stand me." ”
"Oh?"
"When the Golden Hook Gambling House was the hardest, I walked with you, but when you were rich, you divided each other." Qiao Leshan said coldly: "The underground silver vault of the gambling house, only you can open it, how much silver, even I don't know, what kind of brother do you say?" ”
Wen Budao stared at Qiao Leshan's eyes, and said slowly: "Some things, the less you know, the more blessings you have, knowing too much may bring you disaster." Leshan, I have always regarded you as a brother, really, just before I was put in prison, I have always regarded you as a brother, and I have even made a decision at that time, and when I get out of prison, I will immediately hand over all the Golden Hook Gambling House to you. ”
"Now that you say something like that, do you think I'll believe it?" Qiao Leshan smiled: "Big brother really think I'm a three-year-old child? ”
"Believe it or not, I'm telling the truth." Wen Budao said slowly: "Actually, there is only one last step left, I will truly trust you completely, and I will tell you that unknown secret, and let you do bigger things with me, but it's a pity ......!" shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Just one step away, just one step away, you didn't stick to the end after all." The tone was full of regret.
After Qiao Leshan entered the house, Lu Hong didn't say anything, and couldn't help but ask at this time: "Wen Budao, what is the secret you are talking about?" ”
"The headcatcher wants to know too?" Wen Budao glanced at Lu Hong, and seemed to smile: "I advise you not to know." You're still alive, but if you know the truth, you're going to die ugly. ”
Lu Hong's face sank, stepped forward, kicked Wen Budao in the chest, kicked Wen Budao over on the wooden bed, and scolded in a deep voice: "The surname Wen, you are a dead dog now, and you are still here to be alarmist, really when we dare not kill you?" ”
"Of course not." Wen Budao struggled to sit up, and said disdainfully: "Lu Hong, you colluded with Qiao Leshan in private and used it for him, isn't the purpose just to get the silver from me?" The money hasn't arrived yet, so where did you have the guts to kill me? ”
Lu Hong clenched his fists, his eyes widened angrily, and he was about to step forward, Qiao Leshan said in a deep voice: "Don't be angry when you catch your head." persuaded Lu Hong, and then said: "Big brother, I am not a person who rushes to kill everything, you tell me where the silver is, those silver, we will divide it into three, and the three of us will each have a share, if you still want to run the gambling house, I will enter the customs with the silver, if you are not willing to stay in Turtle City, the gambling house will be handed over to me, and I will definitely make the Golden Hook Gambling House famous all over the world." ”
"What if I don't say it?"
"Then don't blame the brother for being ruthless." Qiao Leshan smiled bitterly: "I don't want to take this step, but there are some roads that as long as you take the first step, you can't turn back." ”
Wen Budao smiled: "If you kill me, you won't get that silver." ”
"Lu Zhutou said something just now, and he was not wrong." Qiao Leshan said: "I can't get that money, and when you come out, it's enough to rely on that money to force me into a desperate situation, and I really don't have the financial resources to buy the death penalty for my eldest brother in Fengganfu, and if my eldest brother lives in the world for a day, I won't be at peace for a day." ”
Wen Budao said: "Ruthless, this is the person who does great things." ”
"So big brother, don't force me." Qiao Leshan looked at Wen Budao's eyes: "Sister-in-law is still waiting for the eldest brother, don't you even care about her." ”
Wen Budao closed his eyes and sighed softly, not saying much.
At this moment, I suddenly heard an exclamation from outside: "It's on fire, it's on fire!" ”
The voice came extremely abruptly, Qiao Leshan and Lu Hong turned around and looked out of the door, only to see that the firewood room in the corner of the courtyard was so bright that it had changed color, Qiao Leshan rushed out quickly, and Lu Hong hurriedly followed.
The east corner of the post station is the kitchen, the west corner is the firewood room, the firewood room is naturally equipped with firewood, I don't know who lit the firewood room, the fire is raging, and the fire has burned in a blink of an eye.
"Fight the fire!" Lu Hong reflexively rushed to the kitchen to get water.
The two messengers who followed Lu Hong to escort Wen Budao didn't have the slightest reaction in the room, and even the post messenger from the post station didn't come out.
Qiao Leshan rushed to the gate of the post station, opened the courtyard gate, and the four strong men outside the courtyard gate were holding knives in their hands. ”
"Who burned the wood house?" Qiao Leshan's expression was grim: "Who shouted and started the fire just now?" ”
The four big men looked at each other, all shook their heads, and one said: "We saw a sudden fire in the courtyard, and we didn't know what the situation was. ”
Qiao Leshan was stunned, suddenly realized something, and said in a lost voice: "It's not good." Turning around and rushing towards Wen Budao's room, the four strong men also knew that the situation had changed, so they rushed over with their knives.
Qiao Leshan rushed into the house, his face changed greatly, and he saw that Wen Budao, who was sitting on the bed, was gone.
"Brother Shan, he ran through the back window." One of them raised his knife and pointed to the back window.
At this time, Lu Hong had already rushed in, and when he saw the back window open, his face was extremely shocked, and without saying a word, he rushed to the back window, and was the first to turn out of the window.
"Can't let him run." Qiao Leshan's eyes were awe-inspiring: "Chase me!" He led a few people under his hand and also climbed out of the back window.
Only the front of the post station surrounded the courtyard, and the back window turned out, it was the wilderness, and in the night, I couldn't see Wen Budao running there.
Qiao Leshan said in a deep voice: "He is wearing shackles, he can't run far, Chang Er, you go to the east to chase, Liang Fu, you go to the west, and the remaining two follow me to the south." ”
Several people moved quickly, the soldiers were divided into three roads, Qiao Le Mountain was flying at the foot of the mountain, and the two of them went straight to the south to chase, and soon saw Lu Hong in front of him, and shouted: "Catch the head, can you see them?" ”
"There's a shadow ahead." Lu Hong said coldly: "I can't run." ”
When several people heard this, their spirits perked up, and they all knew that Wen Budao was wearing shackles after all, and his mobility was inconvenient, since he saw his back, he couldn't run if he wanted to.
Qiao Leshan even sent a signal to summon the other two companions.
Sure enough, he didn't chase far, and when he saw a shadow flashing in front of him, Qiao Leshan could see that there was not only one figure over there, and he was suspicious, and then he figured out that someone must have set fire to the firewood room to attract everyone's attention, and when the tiger left the mountain, he secretly rescued Wen Budao.
"It's him!" Lu Hong said in a deep voice.
Wen Budao staggered and ran unfast with shackles, and the person on the side was holding Wen Budao's arm, obviously trying to escape with Wen Budao.
Qiao Leshan sneered at the corner of his mouth, made a gesture, and the two of his subordinates scattered, one left and one right, the speed under his feet was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, Wen Budao's way had been blocked, and at this time, Qiao Leshan's other two subordinates had also arrived, and several people wrapped Wen Budao together.
Wen Budao and the person next to him stopped, Lu Hong saw that the person who rescued Wen Budao was not tall, dressed in coarse cloth clothes, wearing a hat, the most conspicuous thing was that he actually had a wine gourd hanging around his waist, seeing the wine gourd, Lu Hong's body was shocked, and he lost his voice: "Qin ..... Qin Xiao! ”
