Xu Heng saw that Qi Song didn't answer him for a long time, so he guessed what the other party was thinking, so he explained to him: "Actually, this banquet is to make a compensatory injury to Brother Qi." ”

Qi Song frowned slightly, not knowing what Xu Heng was doing.

"You haven't offended me, why should you pay for it?"

"It's not because I've been busy in the gambling hall these days, brother, I didn't entertain you well, and I snubbed you, the last time I went to investigate the affairs of Qijiazhuang, Xu was really busy and couldn't spare manpower, so I thought about setting a table in Tingyuxuan today, hoping that Brother Qi would give face."

Qi Song didn't want to give this face, but when he thought about the Silver Hook Gambling House, although it was supported by the old owner at the beginning, it was not what it used to be, and now he is sending people under the fence, how much he always has to give the other party some face, not to mention that he and Meng Runan have to wait for the city gate to go out of the city.

Thinking of this, Qi Song agreed to Xu Heng.

Xu Heng saw that Qi Song agreed, so he clasped his fists and said, "In a while, listen to Yuxuan." ”

The two left, but what the two didn't know was that in the room next to Dong Tiankuo, there was a person leaning against the door, listening carefully to the conversation between the two people.

The afterglow of the setting sun completely disappeared into the mountains in the distance.

After Chu Ci and Lu Qing came out of the mansion, they drove the carriage in the direction of the Silver Hook Casino, which was the address given on the message.

"Lu Qing, when do you say they will make a move, can we catch up?" Chu Ci sat in the carriage and asked with some concern.

Originally, they were going to go directly on horseback, but they were afraid that the movement would be too loud and startle the snakes, so they chose to take a carriage over.

Lu Qing narrowed his eyes, thinking back to the content of the news he had just received, "Shen Shi has passed, and you have passed the beginning." ”

"When you are unitary, you should do it at the time of unitary, and there is enough time." Lu Qing said categorically.

Chu Ci dispelled his doubts, but he thought of one more thing, that is, the problem of strength, the two people in Qijiazhuang, although in their own information, Meng Runan's combat power is almost zero, but they also have a Qi Song there, a strength is infinitely close to the existence of a great martial artist, and on the other hand, the Silver Hook Gambling House, Xu Heng's strength can be maneuvered with Qi Song, and the rest are just cannon fodder, after all, for that kind of strength, it is not easy to defeat by relying on a large number of people.

Thinking of this, Chu Ci frowned slightly, he always felt as if he had ignored something.

"Gambling house, guard, steward, manager, Xu Heng ······" Chu Ci filtered the information he knew one by one in his heart, "The owner ······"

At that moment, Chu Ci seemed to have grasped something, and then blurted out: "The owner!" Dong Tiankuo! ”

The voice was very loud and sudden, so sudden that Lu Qing, who was in the same car, was a little dumbfounded.

"Dadusi, what's wrong with you?" Lu Qing asked cautiously, after all, Chu Ci in this state is very much like a patient who has lost his heart and gone crazy.

Chu Ci was called by Lu Qing like this, and only then came to his senses, knowing that he had lost his temper just now, and then restrained his mind and asked Lu Qing: "The owner of the Silver Hook Gambling House, Dong Tiankuo, do you have any information there?" What strength is he? ”

Lu Qing thought for a while, then nodded, and said: "There is information, as for what strength, I really don't have an idea, after all, I haven't been in contact with the intelligence of Linqing Mansion, but I know who can know about this matter." ”

Lu Qing gave Chu Ci a look, telling him not to be impatient, then lifted the curtain of the car, and said to the people who were driving the carriage outside: "Tongge, come in for a while, I have something to ask you." ”

Tong Ge heard what Lu Qing said, so he found a remote place to stop the carriage, and then got up and got into the carriage.

"Senior brother, what are you looking for me?" Tong Ge looked at Lu Qing, he had always thought that the young man in white was just a deacon of the Yasi Mansion.

Lu Qing looked at Chu Ci on the side slightly, which meant to say, "Can you reveal your identity?" ”

Chu Ci shook his head without moving, and motioned to Lu Qing not to make a noise, after all, the Linqing Mansion has not been peaceful recently, and if the forces that already have complaints about the royal family of the Chu State know that the Dadu Division of the Yasi Capital Mansion is here, it will inevitably cause some other trouble.

Lu Qing understood Chu Ci's thoughts, so he didn't talk to him anymore, but asked Tong Ge directly: "The owner of the Silver Hook Gambling House, do you have any records there?" ”

Tong Ge frowned, as if he was a little unspeakable, and Lu Qing of course saw the strangeness of his second junior brother, so he asked, "Is there any difficulty?" ”

Tong Ge shook his head, and then said to Lu Qing: "There is no difficulty, it's just ······"

"Just what?"

"Senior brother, I only took over from the Second Elder half a month ago the matters related to the Linqing Mansion."

Lu Qing nodded, he naturally knew this, since the uncle, Lu Liming died of illness, his father Lu Lisheng took over the position of the head of Baixiaotang, and cleaned up a group of people who opposed the royal family of the Chu State, including this second elder of Baixiaotang.

"Senior brother, do you know that a month ago, the day after the master took over as the sect master, our Baixiaotang lost a fire in the stronghold of Linqing Mansion."

Lu Qing frowned, as if he had guessed something, and then said, "Are you saying that the place where the fire is the place where our Linqing Mansion stronghold collects information?" ”

Tong Ge nodded and said, "At that time, senior brother, you were already on your way to Kyoto Mansion, so naturally you didn't know, even the master only received the news three days later." But fortunately, the information that was burned was not unimportant, and the general helm also had a backup, but Dong Tiankuo's information was burned completely, and even the relevant information of the headquarters was gone. ”

"Does my dad know?" The "father" in Lu Qing's mouth naturally refers to the current head of Baixiaotang, Lu Lisheng.

"The master naturally knew, but later they felt that the influence of the Silver Hook Gambling House was too small, and there was no need to mobilize their eyes to re-investigate, and the strength of the owner of the Silver Hook Gambling House was ······."

Lu Qing was a little anxious, so he urged: "What's wrong with his strength?" ”

"His strength is calculated according to the middle-level martial artist." Tong Ge knew that this matter was a bit hasty, but he was only a disciple of Baixiao Hall, although he was now in charge of the affairs of a prefecture, but because of his qualifications, he still had no qualifications to question this matter.

"Intermediate Martial Artist?" Lu Qing was a little incredulous, "Who set this strength?" ”

"Second Elder."

"Isn't it true that the Second Elder can't ask about Bai Xiaotang's external affairs?"

After Lu Lisheng took over as the head of Baixiaotang, he suppressed those who opposed him by thunderous means, and the second elder, after being ordered to hand over the affairs of Linqing Mansion half a month ago, was withdrawn from the helm of Baixiaotang, and asked him to retire at the helm for a long time and no longer intervene in the affairs of the door.

"It's true that you can't ask, but only the second elder knows about the things here in Linqing Mansion, so I have no choice but to ask him." Tong Ge was obviously a little helpless.

Chu Ci on the side heard what Tong Ge said clearly, and secretly said in his heart: "Only the strength of a middle-level martial artist? ”

Then he thought of what he and Lu Qingfu saw in the Silver Hook Gambling Room, shook his head, and then said, "His strength is definitely more than that of a middle-level martial artist!" ”
