Volume 1 Pattern Chapter 38 Secret

The night market on Yongan Street is in the early stages of the lanterns.

Sikong Xi followed the ancient key seven times and eight times, lingering on the street. There are always more things to eat in the stalls, and the jugglers on the street seem to work harder. Tonight's night market seems to be coming faster and more lively than usual.

"How's it going, lively?" A smile crossed Gu Key's face.

"It's lively, it's lively, but there are no baht two flowers, what's the point of shopping left and right." Sikong Xi shrugged his shoulders and played a scoundrel.

"Don't worry, I'll figure it out."

Sikong Xi's eyes lit up, "Do you have a way?" ”

"But this money has to be repaid, you know, boy?"

"That's all for later!" Sikong Xi stepped forward and hugged his shoulders affectionately, and said gossip with a smile.

Gu Key snorted twice, but finally didn't say anything. He leaned into the curtain and walked into the wine shop in front of him, "I don't have that many silver taels, let's have some wine and eat some side dishes, and there will be some small activities later." ”

Sikong Xi's face stiffened, "You don't let me drink, and you don't want to buy expensive food, so what am I doing here?" ”

"Those are minor issues." Gu Jian stretched his neck and motioned for him to lean his ear over, "Let's go to the gambling house to play today." ”

"Casino!" Sikong Xi was ecstatic, but then showed a worried look, "If we let the governor know, we will be broken legs, right?" ”

"Stupid!" Gu Key reached out and slapped him on the head, "Are you stupid?" Did you go to the gambling house and talk nonsense when you met people? The Governor will not come out today, so you can rest assured. He'll pay homage to his ancestors in the house, and we'll have a good time outside, and we'll not be scared when we drink a little wine like we used to, you know? ”

"You're the head of the Supervision Department...... Is that really good? Sikong Xi snickered.

"Shut up!"

The flaming red light shone in the hanging cage with the grease candle burning on the door of the liquor store, and the faint column of smoke flew out with a small hole in the cage cloth, hazy to a small area on the door. Sikong Xi faintly smelled a trace of the burnt smell of processed grease, he slowed down, looked up at the smoky door beam, there were countless small insects moving around the candle, and the burned insects continued to fall to the ground, and the next batch of fresh insects fluttered their wings and chased after them.

Once the door is opened, a long corridor leading straight to the back hall is revealed. In the noisy liquor store, the seats, tables and stools are almost full, and like-minded people drink soju happily, plus a stack of small but enough appetizers, blowing cowhide that can never be made. However, some of the guests were obviously speechless, and looked at the situation in the wine shop with their eyes.

Behind the front counter, the shopkeeper was quietly lying on the desk, his slightly narrowed eyes were shining, and he saw the ancient key that walked in from outside the door, and his eyes suddenly widened.

"Shopkeeper, warm a pot of wine for me and this kid, and serve a few side dishes." The ancient key placed the copper baht on the counter.

The shopkeeper's face was full of smiles, and he didn't accept the copper baht, "Master Gu, the grass people have no reason to collect money!" Can you come to the Humble House...... Undoubtedly, the humble house is full of brilliance, which is already enough to give a small face! ”

Gu Jian glanced at the shopkeeper deeply, "Shopkeeper, is there any good wine for aging?" ”

"Director Gu hasn't drunk it for a long time...... Good wine here for villains. The shopkeeper was just laughing, "But considering Director Gu's taste, the little one has already sealed a few jars of good aged wine, just waiting for Director Gu to arrive." ”

"The shopkeeper's ...... You're good. Gu Jian smiled faintly, and then took the copper baht back into his waist pocket, "Then send me good wine." ”

"Director Gu, please move to the table, and the little one will ask someone to warm the wine syrup and send it over." The shopkeeper pointed to an unmanned seat.

"As soon as possible, I'm short on time." The Ancient Key walked straight towards the seat.

Sikong Xi followed behind Gu Key, a little confused, "Senior brother, what's going on?" ”

"The shadows are already moving, and all we have to do is observe." Gu Key sat on the seat, his voice extremely low.

In the warm wine shop, Sikong Xi hurriedly glanced around nervously, seeing that everyone seemed to have bad intentions, and he nervously pinned his hopes on Gu Key.

"What are they going to do tonight? On a good winter solstice, will there be some ugly things in the dark? ”

"Stop the sound and just watch." Gu Jian watched the shopkeeper come over and put a jar of aged wine on the table, and his eyes stopped on the jar of wine, "Shopkeeper's ...... Go ahead. ”

The shopkeeper's eyes glanced to both sides with determination, and he slowly lowered his head unobtrusively, as if asking the customer what he wanted.

"Director Gu, a member of the shadows, is already in the villain's wine shop, and I hope that Director Gu will plow the court and sweep the holes......"

"Of course."

"The little one...... He retreated first. ”

"No." Gu Jian slowly poured the wine syrup into the cup, but his eyes had already locked on a few people not far away.

"According to my men." He said in a low voice, "Cheng Bi will also go to the gambling house to gamble tonight." ”

"Cheng Bi? What about the shadows? Sikong Xi was stunned.

"If you want to eradicate the roots, you have to find the source." Gu Jian stared at Sikong Xi, "Otherwise, it will only be a startling snake." I'm looking for the reason for Cheng Bi...... I don't need to go into too much detail, right? ”

Sikong Xi was stunned and understood something.

"And my plan tonight is obviously not just a few shadows, and according to their posture, they will leave soon, and my next plan is to clean up that damn Cheng Bi."

"So what do we do?" Sikong Xi squinted at the few people behind him, stood up one after another, and walked out of the wine shop.

"They're gone." Gu Key leaned his neck and poured a large mouthful of soju.

"They're the Shadows?" Sikong Xi looked over quietly, a little suspicious.

"It's just a little bit, there's no need to worry about it. They just saw me and went to report to the leaders of the organization. ”

"What? Already going to report to their boss? Wouldn't we be in trouble when we waited? Sikong Xi was shocked.

"It's still far away!" Gu Key's fair face gradually became red, and then filled the cup with a full face.

"Senior brother, how much alcohol you drink, every time you get drunk and unconscious, I have to carry you back." Sikong Xi complained, but he forgot to be vigilant against the shadows.

"Your senior brother and I have always had a good amount of alcohol, but it was just an accident that day!"

Sikong Xi smacked his lips, feeling that his amount of wine was okay, so he took advantage of the confusion of the ancient key and took the wine jug over and filled his own glass. He raised his neck, and poured it down, and a hot spicy rush straight into his stomach, like swallowing a firecracker.

In this way, he poured four cups of soju back and forth, and the more he drank this wine, the less uncomfortable he felt, and he felt that his body was unexpectedly relaxed, as if he had wings on his back and could fly straight into the sky.

Gu Key raised his head slightly drunk, and raised his hand to fill another glass, only to find that the soju had already been drunk.

"Gone?" He raised his eyes to look at Sikong Xi, "Xi boy, you really feel uncomfortable if you don't fight for a day!" I told you not to drink, you drank too much! ”

"There's a ...... You'll beat the master! Sikong Xi waved his fist, slowly fell on the table, and threw his chopsticks forward, as if he wanted to smash the ancient key.

Gu Key was stunned, "This kid ...... Drunk so much? ”

"If it weren't for your kid pretending!" Gu Key burped, and his eyes gradually became hazy.

"Who's cleaning up who...... I don't know. Sikong Xi swallowed a few words, and then stopped moving, and fell drunk deeply.

In the noisy wine shop, those like-minded people are still touting themselves, or knocking on their thighs and lamenting the injustice of the world, if it is feasible, they must be determined to fight for the country. While talking and laughing, everyone was staggered, and the pride in the words rushed out and there was nowhere to put it, but no one waited for whether the state of mind was true or false.

I don't know how long it has been, Gu Key faintly felt that there was someone around him, and he suddenly became alert. He stood up very quickly, saw the person who was coming, and the drunken feeling gradually disappeared.

"Jiang Qian?" He was a little surprised, "Why did you come so early?" ”

"Young master." The person who came lowered his head and whispered to him, "The leader of the shadows is in the Qinshu Pavilion. ”

"Let's go now!" The ancient key shook Sikong Xi beside him awake, "Get up, boy!" ”

Sikong Xi's sleepy eyes were sparse, looking at the two people in front of him, a little confused, "Senior brother, who is this?" ”

"Fuck!" Gu Jian was angry, and slapped him on the head violently, "Tell you not to drink, you drink too much!" Things that don't have a long heart, Lao Tzu tells you to drink! ”

"Senior brother, you're wrong, what do you call me to drink...... I'm also for your good, it's not like you don't know how much you drink, you can get drunk with a drink! ”

"Can you endure it? Have you learned to contradict your brother? It's not clear whether Lao Tzu can drink it myself? I think you're just itchy skin! Gu Jian gasped, and when he lifted the stool, he wanted to hit Sikong Xi.

When Sikong Xi saw that the situation was wrong, he instantly sobered up a lot, and regardless of the strength of the wine, he ran out of the store with his legs. The ancient key chased after him, and he also chased it out.

Jiang Qian sighed slowly, walked to the counter and handed the baht two to the shopkeeper, but the shopkeeper said that he didn't want the money.

The ancient key jumped and pressed on Sikong Xi's body, and his arm tightly buckled around his neck, subduing him in an instant. "Stinky boy, do you dare?"

"Senior brother spare your life!"

"Tell me to give me the energy!" Gu Jian gave Sikong Xi another punch, and then he got up and dusted off his body, "Okay, it's not too late, let's go!" ”

Sikong Xi wailed and got up, but he didn't dare to attack.

"Jiang Qian, what about the baht?" Gu Key glanced sideways at the young man behind him.

"Young master, it's ready." Jiang Qian weighed the bag of baht taels in his hand.

Sikong Xi looked at the two people in front of him and felt very dazed. He had seen this person, the bartender he met in the liquor store last time, and Gu Key said that it was his former guard. Sikong Xi didn't pay much attention to it, but now the two were discussing some plans. Is it related to the film public? He thought of what the Ancient Key had said earlier.

Gu Jian waved his hand to Sikong Xi and motioned for him to come over, "Listen, I have some gambling skills since I was a child, and when we go to the gambling house where Cheng Bi is, you can cooperate with me in the plan." But remember, if anything happens to us that is not in our favor, run as far as you can, and don't get caught. There will be a chance to deal with it later! ”

"Can he still kill me?" Sikong Xi stiffened his neck.

"Don't be crazy, boy. It's too late for you to cry! Gu Jian said, "As long as you know, out of the Lu Mansion, no one can protect us!" It's hard to say what happened tonight, but it's a blessing to save yourself! ”

Gu Key shrugged his shoulders, "The principle that scarcity is expensive is applicable everywhere, on Yong'an Street, there is just such a gambling house, and if the movie makers want to maintain their business, then they will definitely expand a number of gambling houses or other places." So the gambling house can stay, but the movie crowd must be uprooted. In addition, this gambling house can almost welcome any customer, as long as you have a baht tael, then the gambling house is very welcoming to gamblers. ”
