Chapter 495, Scapegoat
Tang Yao didn't expect Song Shun to come to this city, the current situation is not very favorable to him, it would be better if a friend could help, so Tang Yao immediately got in touch with Song Shun, and the two met after an appointment for more than half an hour.
"I'll go see a friend in a moment, and you can go back by yourself." Tang Yao said.
The little fat man hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, I want to follow you." ”
"Are you bothered, I'm not going to leave you, I'm really going to see a friend, it's too big to take you, it's going to be very troublesome, you just wait in the hotel, I'll be back." Tang Yao said impatiently.
The little fat man was more obedient this time, and nodded and didn't say anything.
The two returned to the upstairs room after eating, the screaming seemed to have just stopped, Tang Yao smelled a strange smell when he walked into the room, and then saw Rong Piao, who was covered in blood, slumped in a chair, looking like he was even struggling to speak.
"Are you going too far, or is this guy so hard-mouthed?" Tang Yao asked.
Yan Lu shook his head and said: "Master, this guy doesn't seem to be able to withstand the toss, I actually didn't use any means, but this guy has passed out several times, but I still came up with some useful information, this guy said that he is actually a scapegoat." ”
"Scapegoat? What do you mean? Tang Yao asked.
He said that it was not him who wanted that thing at that time, he came forward to buy this thing for other people, but that thing was finally handed over to another person, and he also said that this person promised to remit the money to him soon, but he didn't expect this person to repay the account later, Rong Piao couldn't take this person, and he couldn't repay the money for a while, so he wanted to delay for a while, and then pay it back after earning the money, but he didn't expect the interest of the Tianwen pawnshop to rise very fast, and Rong Piao met you after ...... Not only was he seriously injured, but his reputation in the circle also plummeted, so he couldn't get the money for a while, and the Tianwen pawnshop came to urge him every day, so he could only hide, in fact, that thing was not in his hands at all. Yan Lu said.
From this point of view, Rong Piao is really a scapegoat, Tang Yao stepped forward, Rong Piao looked at Tang Yao weakly at this time and said, "It's really none of my business, I'm ...... I...... It can't be helped. ”
"Whoever that person is, the one you bought this thing for him." Tang Yao asked.
"I can't say, that person is not small, even the little Yama can't touch him for the time being, let alone me, if I say his name, then even if I can pick up a life from you today, I will still die at his hands the next day, he is a ruthless monster." It seems that the person Rong Piao said is quite terrifying, and there are probably not many people who can deter the little Hades.
"It doesn't matter, God knows, you know and I know, if I don't say it, if you don't say it, won't no one know?" Tang Yao continued to guide him to say the other party's name.
Rong Piao lowered his head, there was still some hesitation in his eyes, at this time Yan Lu walked next to him and smiled gloomily at him, this smile frightened Rong Piao's three souls and seven spirits were almost gone, and hurriedly said: "It's the old monster of Jiuhe." ”
Tang Yao was stunned for a moment, he didn't know anything about the old monster of Jiuhe, and he hadn't even heard of the name, so he asked, "Who is this old monster of Jiuhe you are talking about?" ”
Rong Piao withdrew from a mouthful of spit and said, "He is us." Ghost thief's side of the outlier,It's also an old monster who has been wandering the rivers and lakes for many years,He was already mixed in the circle when I didn't debut.,He likes to kill and hurt people.,But it's not to make money.,It's for his own hobbies.,This guy is a complete madman.,This guy wanders the world.,The four seas are home.,Treat money like dung.,When you have money, you keep squandering.,When you don't have money, you go to rob it.,There was a time when he joined our landscape.,It was I who met him at that time.,I'm not a friend but I once got some help from him when I was doing errands.,Later, he didn't deal with the little Yama.,The main reason is that the little Yama can't command him. , The two of them even almost started a fight several times, and the old monster of Jiuhe left our Shanshui Tai, but I didn't expect him to find me alone later, saying that he had taken a fancy to the treasure of the Tianwen Pawnshop, which was treasured by the Tianwen Pawnshop for many years, and there was no such shop in this village, but he didn't have any money, so he asked me to buy it......"
Hearing this, Tang Yao asked: "Even if he doesn't have any money, why doesn't he go to the Tianwen Pawnshop to borrow money and pay in installments?" ”
"This is because he was blacklisted by the Tianwen Pawnshop, this guy doesn't know what he did, he was actually blacklisted by the Tianwen Pawnshop, not to mention installments, he can't even enter the door of the Tianwen Pawnshop, plus this old monster's style of behavior is really very problematic, so there are few friends in the circle, so he asked me, he promised to pay me back soon, but I didn't expect this guy to lie to me." Rong Piao said.
Tang Yao frowned and asked, "Are you such a deceitful person, he doesn't promise you some benefits, you will help him like this?" ”
Rong Piao sighed and said: "I did take the benefit, he gave me 100,000 first, and then said that he would give me 100,000 after he got the things, and wrote me an IOU, I think this money is equivalent to giving it for nothing, so I was confused for a while......
200,000 caused such a big trouble, Tang Yao estimated that Rong Piao didn't expect that he would be seriously injured later, and his reputation in the circle would plummet, otherwise he really couldn't find the old monster of Jiuhe, and he could repay the 600,000 by gritting his teeth.
"Aren't you on it yourself?" Tang Yao asked.
Rong Piao lowered his head and whispered, "I have a bad problem...... I love to play with money, and I basically lose all the money I make every year, and I didn't expect to suffer a big loss in the hands of your kid, otherwise it would not be a problem for me to earn hundreds of thousands a year, which is really fucking unlucky. ”
Tang Yao had basically understood the ins and outs of the matter, but there were still some doubts in his heart, he thought about it and asked: "I still don't understand a little bit, haven't you ever thought that the old monster of Jiuhe will repay the debt, I think you should still have some hole cards in your hand, so that when the old monster of Jiuhe is repaying the debt, you still have a way to ask him for money." ”
Rong Piao's eyes suddenly flickered, it seemed that Tang Yao had indeed said it, Tang Yao gave Yan Lu on the side a look, Yan Lu immediately walked to Rong Piao's side, reached out and patted the wound on Rong Piao's thigh, Rong Piao grinned in pain, he was really afraid of Yan Lu and said, "I...... I did leave a little bit of stuff behind, and I didn't give it everything to the Nine Rivers Boss when I gave it to him. ”
"What about what you left behind?" Tang Yao hurriedly asked.
Rong Piao refused to say anything, even if Yan Lu was next to scare him and didn't open his mouth, obviously this was what he thought was the last bargaining chip, Tang Yao saw that Rong Piao's oil and salt did not enter, and the time agreed with Song Shun was approaching, so he put away Yan Lu and left the hotel temporarily, and when he left, he told the little fat man not to run around, and also gave him an "important task", that is, to watch Rong Piao, and call Tang Yao immediately if there is any trouble.
Half an hour later, Tang Yao arrived at the agreed place, and across the street, he saw Song Shun standing on the side of the road dressed in black, he hurriedly walked over and asked, "Why are you here too?" ”
"I want to ask you, how are you here, and how do you know I'm in this city?"
After Tang Yao and Song Shun met, they talked about each other's affairs, and they both understood that Tang Yao came to help the Tianwen pawnshop collect debts, and Song Shun came to track down the Thousand Evil Demon Knife.
"Wait, will the Thousand Evil Demon Knife you said be the thing that Rong Piao bought, I didn't say what it was in my information, but I said that it was a machine weapon, and it was very promising, because there was the possibility of devouring the master, so the price of selling it was not high, but this knife is quite powerful, and it belongs to the list of legendary machine soldiers." Tang Yao said.
Song Shun also felt that it made sense when he heard this, and immediately said: "I got the news that the Thousand Evil Demon Knife is in the hands of the famous madman Jiuhe Old Monster among the 'ghost thieves'. ”
Tang Yao clapped his hands and immediately said: "That's right, it's him, Rong Piao said that he was helping the old monster of Jiuhe go to the Tianwen pawnshop to buy something, so it seems to be right." ”
Song Shun nodded and said: "I received information, the old monster of Jiuhe has appeared in this city in the last two days, and now it seems that Rong Piao hid in the Tian clan not only to avoid the debt collection of you and the Tianwen pawnshop, but also to avoid the old monster of Jiuhe, it should be that the things he hid were known by the old monster of Jiuhe, and now I am afraid that the old monster of Jiuhe will come to seek revenge." ”
"There is this possibility, then the key for us to find the Thousand Evil Demon Knife and the Nine Rivers Old Monster now is what Rong Piao hid, and if you get that thing, you can lure out the Nine Rivers Old Monster, and then subdue the Nine Rivers Old Monster and take back the Thousand Evil Demon Knife."
