Chapter 131: Lao Zai
Yang Chongning smiled slyly and said: "Although the night ghost is a bad gamble, but it is not stupid to sell this priceless holy relic, the black market reselling is just his rhetoric to cover up people's ears, taking it for himself is the real purpose, and anyone with a little brain knows that the thing must still be with him." ”
"Lao Yang, you mean Sang scolding Huai, saying that I have no brains?!" Wang Weijun exhaled angrily.
"It's a matter of opinion." Yang Chongning said disdainfully.
The car stopped at the port while talking, and we were going to Hong Kong after passing the customs, Yang Chongning was very thoughtful, and brought our documents before this trip to find people, so we also passed the customs smoothly.
After passing the border, we took the MTR to Hong Kong in less than half an hour, we first found a hotel to stay, and then began to discuss the whereabouts of the night nether.
"Lao Ye is a bad gambler, but all places related to gambling may be his haunts, Hong Kong's horse farms, community underground casinos are possible, we are not familiar with Hong Kong, the system is different, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, we had better ......act together." Yang Chongning took out the portrait of the Night Netherworld as he spoke.
In the portrait, the night ghost is wearing a robe of the underworld gate, carrying a soul sealing talisman sword behind his back, his body is thin, his appearance is haggard, and he looks like he has not woken up.
"Lao Yang, why does this guy look like he is taking drugs." Wang Weijun said.
I looked at the portrait, Wang Weijun described it more expressively, Yang Chongning nodded and said: "A person stays up late every day to gamble, can he not be like a drug addict?" But it's precisely because of this feature that it's easier for us to find. ”
Since we had to wait until the evening to go out to find someone, after getting Yang Chongning's consent, Wang Weijun and I were also busy running out to hang out.
We know more about Hong Kong from movies and television, and there are very few places we know, so we go to hang out in the place we hear about the most, which is Temple Street.
The things on Temple Street are cheap and beautiful, many of them are counterfeits, and we also changed our outfits after a round of shopping, which Yang Chongning specially advised, saying that it was convenient to find people in casinos and other places.
I was more rational and bought some normal clothes, and I was almost the same as the young people on Hong Kong Island after wearing them, but Wang Weijun was a little outrageous, with big sunglasses, ripped jeans, a fake gold chain around his neck, and tattoo stickers such as dragons and tigers on his arms, which looked like an old boy.
I reminded him if he was dressed up too eye-catching, but he didn't care.
It turned out that my judgment was correct, and I soon got into trouble because of Wang Weijun's dress.
When we went out of Temple Street and were about to go back to the hotel, we met two patrol policemen, Wang Weijun's dress attracted their attention, we were stopped for interrogation, because the language communication was not smooth, and in addition our documents were in Yang Chongning's place, the patrol police wanted to take us to the police station, and we could only cooperate to go to the police station, I called Yang Chongning, but I couldn't contact him, I don't know what he was doing.
It wasn't until about 8 o'clock in the evening that I contacted Yang Chongning, he rushed to the police station, and we were able to come out, the Hong Kong police paid great attention to the procedure, and when we came out, we found that it was almost 10 o'clock in the evening.
Yang Chongning didn't complain about us, but just said that next time be careful, Hong Kong is not as strict as the mainland.
"Master, why didn't anyone answer my call when I called you all afternoon?" I asked.
"The phone left the hotel, I went to the racecourse in Sha Tin and Causeway Bay in the afternoon, and found no trace of the night nether, followed me to the peripheral gambling bar to inquire, and no one has ever seen the night nether appear, only to find that you called me when I came back." Yang Chongning said.
"Are we going to the club's gambling stall at night?" Wang Weijun asked.
"Well, you are more qualified in this dress, and I don't blame you for recruiting the police, but I have to remind you that the gambling stalls are not very peaceful, after all, it is the territory of the community, so keep an eye on everything." Yang Chongning reminded.
After speaking, he took us to a tea restaurant by taxi, saying that he had made an appointment with the president of the Maoshan branch in Hong Kong to meet.
"Old Yang, why are we alarming them?" Wang Weijun asked curiously.
"People have connections in Hong Kong for many years, and no acquaintances in the club gambling stalls can't enter, so we need him to help match the bridge." Yang Chongning said.
When we arrived at the café, we met two people, one was the branch president with half-white hair, and the other was a young man with yellow hair.
After a brief greeting with Yang Chongning, the president handed over his hand and introduced: "Brother Dao, his name is Laozi, he is a bad gambler who is mixed in the gambling stalls of several clubs, if you give him money, he will take you to the gambling stalls of several major clubs." ”
"There is Brother Lao Dao to match." Yang Chongning bowed politely.
"Anyway, everyone is a friend of Maoshan Dao, and it is right to help each other, and when you finish your work, please sit in the branch, and I will do my best to be a landlord." The president laughed.
At this time, the man called Lao Zi was a little impatient, and said in a mouthful of Mandarin: "There is too much nonsense, whether you want to go or not, hurry up and give money." ”
Yang Chongning looked at the president, the president signaled that he needed two thousand Hong Kong dollars, Yang Chongning nodded and took out the money and gave it to Lao Zai, who put the money in his pocket and said, "I can take you in, but don't make trouble for me, if something happens, you can't rely on me, do you hear clearly?" ”
"Don't worry." Yang Chongning nodded.
In this way, we followed Lao Tsai to the gambling stalls of the club, but turned around a few club gambling stalls, and there was no trace of the night at all. ”
"Do you have a way to find someone?" Wang Weijun asked.
"Just give money and you can find it." Lao Tsai smiled wickedly at us.
"Why should we trust you?" I frowned.
"Just because I'm a bad gambler, I know bad gamblers, but this money...... Hey. Lao Tsai said.
"How much do you want?" Yang Chongning asked.
Lao Zi raised a finger, which means 10,000, which is too much, I looked at Yang Chongning and waited for him to make a decision, Yang Chongning thought for a while and said, "Yes, but we have to meet the talent to give money." ”
"No problem." Lao Tsai paused and said, "What does that friend of yours look like?" ”
Yang Chongning unfolded the portrait to show Lao Zai, Lao carefully observed the portrait, a hint of imperceptible smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and said: "He is already a big second gambler with his virtue." ”
"What do you mean by the second gambler?" I wondered.
"Gamblers also have a hierarchy, you laymen don't understand much, probably that this person has reached the point of pathology, not satisfied with the petty fights in the gambling stall at all, if you want to find someone, don't talk nonsense, keep up with me." Lao Tsai stepped on the motorbike and started it, and then motioned for us to follow him.
We stopped the taxi and followed him, and I was suspicious and asked, "Master, do you think this person is reliable?" ”
"The value of this 10,000 yuan flower, this person is not as simple as an ordinary bad gambler, we will definitely be able to find the old night." Yang Chongning said.
"How can you be so sure?" Wang Weijun wondered.
"In my judgment, he knows Lao Ye nine times out of ten, but he is very good at disguising, if it weren't for the fact that he saw the portrait just now with a trace of pride, it is indeed difficult to detect, before he was secretly looking at us in the tea restaurant, and he was also judging when he was in the gambling stall, but you didn't find out, just now he should have his own judgment, thinking that we will not be bad for Lao Ye, so he is willing to take us to him, and by the way, make a sum of money on us." Yang Chongning said.
"I did notice that he just looked at the portrait and smiled." I nodded.
We got off the bus on the embankment of Victoria Harbour with Lao Tsai, who found an acquaintance and quickly got us a few ferry tickets, and a small boat approached the shore in a short time.
"Please get on board." Lao Tsai made a gesture of please.
"What does that mean?" Wang Weijun scratched his head in some confusion.
I immediately understood, this is going to the high seas to gamble on the boat!
Real gamblers are in love with gambling on the high seas gambling boats, no one can control in the high seas, with the identity of the night netherworld, the gambling ship on the high seas is suitable, even if someone wants to chase and kill him, you can kill people without scruples, not afraid of causing any trouble!
