Zhuozhou, under the jurisdiction of Shuntian Prefecture, south of Baoding Prefecture.

On the boundary of Zhuozhou, there is a snake named Wei Taining. This person has a lot of business in Zhuozhou, with a casino, two armory shops, three kilns and a four-room pharmacy. Although he is the head snake here, his reputation in the local area is not bad, and he often fights for the weak, so the poor call him a good man.

Because Wei Taining is quite a charismatic and good at making friends with heroes from all walks of life, he is very popular and his business is naturally very good. In fact, he is good at making friends, but mainly for business. Because, whether it is a casino, a kiln, an armory shop, or a pharmacy, in fact, the people who go to it the most are still people in the rivers and lakes. Of course, among the four businesses of Wei Taining, the most profitable should be the kiln courtyard and the casino, after all, it is a million profits! People who have entered the kiln courtyard casino know that in the casino, nine out of ten bets are lost, and whoever wins, it is naturally the dealer who wins! If the dealer can't make money, then there is no need for the casino to open again. And the kiln courtyard, the land of fireworks, the place of wind and moon and rain, burns money faster than casinos.

The people who enter the kiln courtyard casino are generally divided into two types.

Either he is a gangster in the market, or he is a good man. The gangsters in the market have nothing else to do, but they are good at gambling and prostitution, casinos and kilns, and they will never be missing. The rivers and lakes are merry and heroic, either rough and bold, or bohemian, and when they see a lively place, they all want to go in and have a look. Therefore, when the martial arts conference was about to open, Wei Taining took in many people in his mansion, but it was just to earn as much money as possible from these people.

Since you live here, you have to go to the casino to play two games, spend the night in the land of fireworks, or buy two weapons, and buy medicine if you are injured in a fight. In this way, all the money he spent was earned.

A few years ago, Tang Sikai went to Beijing to meet King Xiao, so he met Wei Taining in the capital and became acquainted with him ever since. Although the two are not close friends, the relationship is not too bad, and they still move around a little from time to time. It's just that Chuanzhong is too far away from Zhuozhou, so there are not many opportunities for the two to really meet.

Although Wei Taining likes to make friends, he doesn't actually know any famous and decent big people, but most of them are small people who are three religions and nine streams. Wei Taining knew that Tang Sikai was one of the five heroes of the Tang Sect, who was not only a famous and upright person, but also a well-known player in the rivers and lakes, so he naturally still thought highly of him.

However, Tang Mugong is a person who doesn't like to be noisy, and it stands to reason that he shouldn't go to a place like Weifu to settle down. In normal times, he should find a slightly quiet inn, and lead the people out of the capital from time to time, and play until the martial arts conference is held, this is his style.

However, he just let Tang Sikai choose such a mixed place to stay, and there are several girls around him, which seems to be a little inappropriate. The reason why Tang Mugong did this was mainly to make the situation more complicated, so as to facilitate the implementation of the next plan to lure the snake out of the hole.

Although there are many martial arts people in the Wei Mansion, few of them can be regarded as top masters. If the fourth brother Tang Muxian was really practicing the blood cultivation technique, then he would definitely make another move in the near future. Tang Mugong also roughly knew that once the blood cultivation technique began to be practiced, he had to continuously eat blood. Therefore, if Tang Mugong wants to know the truth, the recent period is the best opportunity.

The Wei Mansion is in Zhuozhou City, and it is in the most prosperous area. The street where it is located is called Lanxiang Street, and it is in the middle of Lanxiang Street, and on both sides of the next door is its own kiln courtyard, and the courtyard door is connected, if anyone needs it, the girl will be sent directly to the house room. Opposite is the casino, if someone is bored, go directly to the opposite side to play two, but it is also very close. On both sides, there are Wei Taining's pharmacies and weapons shops, lined up. Therefore, although the business on this street is good, it is almost all earned by Wei Taining alone. I have to say that Wei Taining is indeed a good businessman, very business-minded, especially good at soliciting business.

Since Tang Men and his entourage planned to go to Wei Mansion to settle down, Tang Sikai naturally sent someone to send a letter to Wei Taining first. Wei Taining has never made friends with a big man like Tang Mugong in his life, so he was very happy to hear that the master of the Tang Sect, the three elders, the four heroes and the five young men all came together, and sent someone to clean up his backyard as soon as possible, leaving it for the people of the Tang Sect.

Since Wei Taining is very good at business, he is naturally very smart.

He expected that senior masters like the master of the Tang Sect and the three elders naturally liked to be quiet, and his front yard was already full of a large group of idle people, so he could only arrange the Tang Sect and his party in a slightly quieter backyard, which could also give the Tang Sect people an independent space, so as to show his respect for the Tang Sect.

Tang Men and his entourage soon entered Zhuozhou City, and followed Tang Sikai directly to Lanxiang Street.

Wei Taining heard that Old Man Tang and the three elders were coming in person, so he was already waiting at the corner of the street. Naturally, it was inevitable to greet each other, Tang Mugong smiled and said: "Boss Wei doesn't have to be polite, I'll come here today, I'm afraid I will disturb for a few days, and I hope Boss Wei will forgive me!" ”

"What did Old Man Tang say? You can enjoy the light at the same time with the three elders, our house is really full of brilliance, and the younger generations are also very happy, why do you say 'disturb', doesn't this seem to be out of sight? The juniors are slightly older than Tang Wuxia, probably the same as Tang Erxia, if the old man Tang and the three elders don't mind, they will call me by my name directly, call me Taining, but don't call Boss Wei again, the juniors really dare not be. Wei Taining smiled and spoke very thoughtfully, looking like a human spirit.

"These four are the four ghosts of western Sichuan, and this girl is the famous big swordsman in the rivers and lakes, the Jade Rakshasa Luo girl. They are also with us, I wonder if your house can live? Tang Mugong introduced them separately.

Wei Taining was still meeting the four ghosts enthusiastically, but when he suddenly heard the words "Jade Rakshasa", the expression on his face suddenly froze, and he didn't even hear Tang Tang Mugong's question.

"Excuse me, can your mansion accommodate so many people?" Tang Mugong asked again.

"Oh! Stay, of course. Wei Taining quickly recovered and only replied enthusiastically.

After he finished speaking, he should lead the way first and go straight to the Wei Mansion.

Because there are really a lot of heroes in the Wei Mansion, there are people who don't want to go to the casino, so Su Xing opened several tables in the courtyard of the front yard, and the supply of wine and meat is continuous, and it is also very lively!

Tang Mugong entered the door and said, "Taining, it seems that your business is really good!" The gaming tables are all set up in the house! ”

"Where, where! and earn a mouthful of money. These heroes were bored, so they opened two tables and let them have a little fun. Wei Taining smiled.

"Where do we live, with them?" Tang Mugong asked, his expression seemed a little dissatisfied, but he was also trying his best to control it.

"Of course not. Old man, you are a noble person, naturally live in the backyard, quiet. In this backyard, it's just you, and no one else will bother you. Wei Taining said, and he had already led everyone to the backyard.

Wei Taining spoke in a very small voice just now, but someone still heard it.

So, at the table, an eyeless man asked, "Who are these?" Boss Wei personally received him, and also left the entire backyard to them. ”

"Yes! This backyard is all occupied by Boss Wei's family, and now Boss Wei asked his wife to take the family back to her parents' house for a few days, just to leave this backyard to this group of people. It seems that the origin of this group of people is indeed not small. The other person who answered was clearly not eyesighted.

"Huh! What's the big deal, the pig's nose sticks green onions in it - pretending to be an elephant. You see, it won't be tomorrow, let's drive them all out of the backyard, and then our brothers will go to live together. Okay? A fat man with a machete on his back said, apparently even more blind.

"Fatty, you have the ability to drive people out, let's talk about it! Be careful not to get spanked. The other scoffed.

"Just wait and see! Lao Tzu is going to kick them out tonight, and then bring a few girls in to be happy. The fat man obviously couldn't stand being looked down upon like this, so he only shouted loudly.

"Okay, let's wait and see the show!" So, a few thugs said.

Wei Taining knew that the Tang Sect was a famous family, and he was afraid that he would not be able to live there, so he really asked his wife to take the family to live at her mother's house for a few days, and finally vacated the entire backyard, leaving only a few necessary servants to wait.

Tang Mugong saw that there was no need to squeeze with the pickled man, only they lived in this backyard, but they were quite satisfied. I just felt a little embarrassed, let the family spend so much effort, and sent all the family members away, so they settled down with their group, and I really felt a little sorry not to go.

The backyard is Wei Taining's own residence, not smaller than the front yard at all, and because it is a double-layer quadrangle compound, people can live up and down, so there are many rooms, and there is a hall courtyard in the middle, where you can set up a table to eat and drink. Tang Mugong felt really embarrassed to let the family make such a big yard for them to live in. Each of them chose a room, but there were still many vacant rooms. So Tang Mugong said to Wei Taining: "Taining, there are still many vacant rooms in this backyard, if you still have guests, as long as you are not idle people, you can also arrange for them to live in the backyard!" ”

"Hey! Where did the old man say, this backyard said that if you are left, it must be left to you, and no one else will come in to live. Wei Taining thought that Tang Mugong was testing himself, so he also replied very thoughtfully.

Tang Mugong had already told him, as for how he arranged it, it was his own business, and he didn't bother to care.

At this time, Tang Mugong suddenly remembered that his granddaughter-in-law Wei Yan said that she wanted to start learning Tang martial arts with him, so he felt that he should give her a worthy weapon first. He remembered that the fifth elder Tang Sikai said that Wei Taining still opened an armory shop, so he said to him plainly: "Taining, do you have two weapons shops?" ”

"Oh! Yes! Old man, do you want to buy weapons? Then I'll just ask someone to send you a few good ones later. Wei Taining was very happy to see that there was business.

"No, you can just take us over later." Tang Mugong replied.
