Being able to earn five hundred taels of silver effortlessly must be something that many people dream of, and this thing must happen in a dream, because no one will give you five hundred taels of silver for nothing.

But now what should have happened in the dream happened to the pony, the pony was not happy at all, he was even a little miserable, if he could choose he would definitely choose not to take the five hundred taels of silver, because the five hundred taels of silver represent betrayal.

There are many kinds of betrayal, but the worst one is the betrayal between friends, a real friend can give your life for you, so once you betray your friend, you will have one less friend, one less friend means that you have one less life.

This doesn't make too much sense, but it makes a lot of sense.

The pony had already held the silver ticket in his hand, it was too heavy, his hand was shaking, his eyes were fixed on the silver ticket in his hand, he was choosing, he was making the hardest choice in the world, that is, the choice of friends and family.

This is really a difficult choice, so the pony has not spoken, and Lao Xu is not in a hurry, because he knows that the pony will definitely move towards the result he wants, because in his heart the pony has already made a decision, and the moment the pony reaches out to take the silver ticket, Lao Xu knows that he has won.

Xu turned around and poured himself a cup of tea and tasted it slowly, he knew that it would take a process to wait for the pony to speak, and he only hoped that the process would not be too long, because his patience was not very good.

A cup of tea has bottomed out, and Lao Xu's patience is also going to bottom out, Lao Xu sighed and spoke: "Pony, now you can say, I don't have much time." ”

The pony slowly raised his head and said with difficulty: "Master Xu, you must find Xiong Yu, what are you going to do to him?"

Lao Xu smiled, and then Lao Xu said: "You have to know one thing, the person who wants to find Xiong Yu is not me, but Mrs. Zhang, you know Mrs. Zhang's temper, now you still have the opportunity to get five hundred taels of silver, if you are in front of Mrs. Zhang, I guarantee that you will not have such a good time." ”

Xiao Ma really wanted to ask Zhang Sanbao what he was looking for Xiong Yu, but he couldn't say this, because it was not a question he could ask, and now Lao Xu gave him another choice, that is, to say it now, or to say it in front of Zhang Sanbao.

The pony suddenly clenched his fists and whispered, "I have indeed seen Xiong Yu." ”

Lao Xu nodded and said, "Go on, I'm listening." ”

Pony continued, "And Xiong Yu lives in Hebei right now. ”

Lao Xu's eyes lit up and said, "Very good, this is enough, you can go." ”

The pony raised his head in surprise and looked at Lao Xu, he didn't understand why Lao Xu didn't continue to ask, Lao Xu looked at the pony and understood what the pony was thinking, Lao Xu walked up to the pony and patted the pony's shoulder and said: "I don't want you to be too difficult, if you say Xiong Yu's residence, it means that you have betrayed your friend, then you will definitely have a hurdle in your heart in the future." ”

There was a sudden trace of gratitude in Xiao Ma's eyes, he found that Lao Xu was not as annoying as he imagined, Lao Xu seemed to see through Xiao Ma's thoughts again, he said with a straight face: "As long as Xiong Yu is in Hebei, I will definitely be able to find him, and this is what I found myself, and it has nothing to do with you, so you can treat it as if nothing happened now." ”

The pony bowed his head and bowed deeply, "Master Xu, thank you." ”

Saying that, the pony turned around and walked out, and when the pony walked out, Lao Xu suddenly clapped his palms, and as soon as the sound sounded, several vendors appeared in the house, these people looked like street vendors, but his eyes were by no means what street vendors should have.

Lao Xu sat on the Taishi's chair and said slowly: "Find a person in the city, in his twenties, wearing a blue robe, with a blue long sword, the characteristic is that his sword has no scabbard, now this person lives in the city, look carefully, I believe that such a person will not be difficult to find." ”

A few of the people dressed as hawkers nodded and immediately dodged out, their orders had been received, and now they just had to carry them out.

After these people left, Lao Xu smiled and breathed a sigh of relief: "Sometimes I admire myself too, I really can't think of anything I can't solve." ”

Although the sky was still bright, but the pony man was in a trance, he suddenly felt that the sun was not so dazzling, although he walked in the downtown but could not hear the shouting around him clearly, is this the price of betraying his friends?

The pony suddenly stretched out his hand into his bosom, and in his bosom was a silver ticket of five hundred taels, which represented the value of a friend.

Pony's heart is a little uncomfortable, his heart is suddenly very guilty, but he can only feel guilty, because his wife and unborn child are in the hands of Lao Xu, so he has no choice at all.

Before he knew it, Pony had already walked to Xiong Yu and Xiaoyaozi's residence, he didn't know how he got here, the door was closed, Xiong Yu and Xiaoyaozi were in this courtyard, they must have thought that Pony was a trustworthy person, they must not have thought that the pony they trusted had betrayed them.

The pony gently buckled the door, and after a while, the door opened a crack, and it was Xiong Yu who opened the door, and Xiong Yu immediately smiled when he saw the pony standing at the door: "It's the pony, come in." ”

There is no smile on the pony's face, because he can't laugh at all, Xiaoyaozi is drinking in the house, Xiong Yu takes the pony to the house and says, "Let's have a few drinks together." ”

Pony picked up the wine glass and drank it down, Xiong Yu drank a glass of wine and asked, "Pony, do you have something on your mind?"

As long as you look at the pony's sad face, you know that the pony must have something on his mind, and the pony does not open his mouth but drinks three glasses of wine in a row, and when the pony finishes drinking, Xiong Yu fills the pony with a fourth glass of wine.

The wine was the best daughter red, and after the fourth cup, the pony's face was already a little red, and he suddenly said, "I have a wife, and my soon-to-be-born child is in her belly." ”

Xiong Yu is listening, a person will not say these words for no reason, once a person mentions his wife and children, it means that he must have some difficulties.

Pony continued, "My wife is a very good woman, and I want to be good to her for the rest of my life, so I must not let her be hurt in the slightest. ”

Xiaoyaozi's hand holding the wine glass suddenly stopped in the air, and he stared into the pony's eyes and said, "Someone is trying to hurt your wife?"

The pony shook her head, and Xiaoyaozi drank the wine from her glass with a blank face.

Xiong Yu poured another glass of wine and put it in front of the pony and said, "How many taels of silver can you get every month?"

Pony paused and said, "About two hundred taels." ”

Two hundred taels of silver is not a small amount, for an ordinary person, two hundred taels is enough for them to live for half a year.

Xiong Yu continued: "You often go to the casino. ”

Pony looked up at Xiong Yu in amazement, he didn't know how Xiong Yu knew that he often went to the casino.

Xiong Yu smiled and said: "There is a strong smell of tobacco on your body, your hands must often touch the dice, only people who often touch the dice will have a thin layer of calluses on their fingers." ”

Pony looked at his hand and wondered, "Couldn't this be the result of my years of using a sword?"

Xiong Yu smiled faintly and said, "People who use swords will only have calluses on their palms, never on their fingers." ”

The pony could only listen, because the calluses on his fingers were indeed ground by touching the dice every day, and he could not imagine that Xiong Yu's observation would be so careful, and he suddenly felt a little afraid, afraid that Xiong Yu would find out that he had betrayed him.

Xiong Yu looked at the silent pony and suddenly got up and said, "Pony, you come with me." ”

The pony said with a puzzled and anxious look in his eyes, "What's wrong?"

Xiong Yu turned around and walked to the door and said, "You just come with me." After speaking, Xiong Yu took the lead in walking out the door.

Pony looked at Xiong Yu's back and suddenly felt apprehensive, could it be that Xiong Yu already knew what he had done? Pony slowly got up and walked slowly to the door, Xiong Yu was already waiting outside the door.

The pony walked out, and he accidentally saw the sword on Xiong Yu's waist, it was a sword without a scabbard, and the body of the sword exuded this faint blue, this must be a good sword, this sword must be easy to kill a person.

What Xiong Yu wants to do is not clear, he only knows that this time he is afraid that he is more than lucky, so Xiaoma's hand gently grasped the hilt of the sword on his waist, if Xiong Yu really wants to kill him, then he must draw the sword first, because he has a reason not to die, because he still has a wife and unborn children.

Once people do something wrong, they will have a kind of disease, this disease is called suspicion, and often some normal things will become abnormal in their eyes.

The pony was already standing behind Xiong Yu, and he was ready to draw his sword at any time, Xiong Yu suddenly turned around, and the pony's hand holding the hilt of the sword tightened.

There was a hint of uneasiness in the pony's eyes, Xiong Yu looked at the pony and suddenly smiled, took out three silver tickets of one thousand taels from his arms, stuffed them into the pony's hand, and said, "You take this." ”

The pony looked at Xiong Yu in a strange color and said, "What does this mean?"

Xiong Yu said: "Since you are about to have a child, don't gamble anymore, if you owe gambling debts, use this silver to pay off the debts, if not enough, come to me." ”

Pony didn't know what was going on in his heart at the moment, he only knew that he was a bastard, and he was an out-and-out bastard in front of Xiong Yu, Pony suddenly took a step back and said, "I can't ask for your silver ticket." ”

Xiong Yu sighed and said: "I can see that you have something on your mind today, but you can tell me no matter what difficulties you have, because you are my friend, these silver tickets are not charity, but help, no matter who will have difficulties, you must find friends when you are difficult, because friends must be your most reliable people." ”

The pony's grip on the hilt of the sword suddenly let go, and he suddenly bent down and bowed, "Thank you." With that, the pony ran away.

Xiong Yu looked at the back of the pony and turned back to the house, and at this moment he suddenly thought of something bad in his heart.

Xiaoyaozi was still drinking, Xiong Yu sat opposite Xiaoyaozi and raised his wine glass and slowly drank a glass of wine and said, "The pony is gone." ”

Xiaoyaozi nodded and said, "I know." ”

Xiong Yu continued, "Pony is not in debt at the casino. ”

Xiaoyaozi nodded and said: "I can see that his outfit is worth at least three hundred taels, and those who can wear this will not owe gambling debts." ”

Xiong Yu frowned and said, "But the pony does have something on his mind today." ”

Xiaoyaozi suddenly looked at Xiong Yu with a solemn face and said, "I want to tell you a story." ”
