Chapter 663: Old Scheming
Night is coming, and today is not an ordinary day for the people who live in the city, because today they saw a crazy group of people.
This group of people is none other than Zhang Sanbao's men, they will search from house to house, they will carefully search every corner like hunting dogs, and they have only one goal, that is, to find Xiaoyaozi and Xiong Yu and catch them.
Unfortunately, they are not hounds, and their noses are not as sensitive as those of hunting dogs, so they have little to gain during the day except to knock over a few street stalls.
Of course, they would not have thought that Xiong Yu and Xiaoyaozi were sitting in Lao Xu's study at the moment, of course they didn't think that Xiong Yu and Xiaoyaozi were drinking good wine and eating good food at the moment, while Lao Xu was accompanying them, and Lao Xu was like Xiong Yu and Xiaoyaozi's housekeepers at this moment, because at this moment Lao Xu was pouring wine for Xiong Yu and Xiaoyaozi.
Xiong Yu looked at Lao Xu and smiled: "If Zhang Sanbao sees your current appearance, he will definitely be mad." ”
Lao Xu also smiled and said, "Maybe Zhang Sanbao will be mad when he sees you." ”
Xiong Yu raised his wine glass and drank it all and said, "You are really not in a hurry at all?"
Lao Xu slowly took a sip of wine and said, "Why should I be in a hurry? ”
Xiaoyaozi suddenly spoke: "You are not a good minion. ”
Lao Xu shook his head and said, "Zhang Sanbao may not be a good master. ”
Xiaoyaozi stared at Lao Xu and said, "What will you do if Zhang Sanbao dies?"
Lao Xu sighed and said, "Maybe I will go to another place to continue to be a housekeeper, but there is one thing I have to tell you in advance." ”
Xiaoyaozi was listening, and Lao Xu continued: "The two of you may not be able to kill Zhang Sanbao. ”
After saying that, Lao Xu seemed to feel that something was missing, and he continued: "It may be a good opportunity to kill Zhang Sanbao now, but if you wait until the day of Zhang Sanbao's birthday banquet, all the good men under him will come back to congratulate him on his birthday, and it will be difficult to kill Zhang Sanbao at that time." ”
Xiaoyaozi snorted coldly and said, "This is not something you should worry about. ”
Lao Xu shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm not worried, I'm just curious about what method you will use to approach Zhang Sanbao." ”
Xiaoyaozi raised his glass and drank a glass of wine slowly, and said, "Do you think Zhang Sanbao has many friends?"
Lao Xu frowned and said, "Isn't it?"
Xiaoyaozi laughed and said, "Do you know what a friend is?"
Lao Xu didn't speak, because he could see that Xiaoyaozi had given him a very reasonable explanation.
Xiaoyaozi poured wine and said, "Among the people who congratulated him on his birthday, there are no more than ten people who can be counted as friends with him, and there are at least six of these ten people who have heard my name. ”
Lao Xu still didn't understand, and he said with doubts in his eyes: "Are you saying that no one will help Zhang Sanbao when you say it?"
Xiaoyaozi said with a smile that Lao Xu couldn't understand: "There are some things that you don't believe until they happen, so you just need to watch them carefully." ”
Lao Xu suddenly got up and sighed: "It seems that this time I really want to collect the body for Zhang Sanbao." ”
As soon as the words fell, Lao Xu walked towards the door, Xiong Yu and Xiaoyaozi's eyes had been staring at Lao Xu, Lao Xu's hand had already grabbed the handle, the door had been opened a crack, Lao Xu suddenly turned his head to look at Xiaoyaozi and said in a strange tone: "Aren't you afraid that when I go out now, I will find a way to tell Zhang Sanbao that the two of you are here with me?"
Xiaoyaozi looked at Xiong Yu, and Xiong Yu said lightly: "I could have given you a pill of poison, and then I will give you the antidote after the matter is completed." ”
Lao Xu frowned and said, "You didn't do that. ”
Xiong Yu continued, "I don't want to do this, because I know you don't want to die. ”
Lao Xu suddenly laughed and said, "Do you think my life will really be in your hands? As long as I shout now, you and Xiaoyaozi will be exposed immediately." ”
Xiong Yu put his hand on the hilt of the sword in front of Lao Xu, and then Xiong Yu said confidently: "Some things must be tried to know the result." ”
Lao Xu's smile suddenly became a little helpless, and he said slowly: "I don't want to die now." With that, Lao Xu walked out.
After Lao Xu left, Xiaoyaozi suddenly smiled and said, "It was actually very dangerous just now. ”
Xiong Yu nodded and said, "I understand." ”
Xiaoyaozi continued: "If your momentum can't suppress Lao Xu, then Lao Xu will tell Zhang Sanbao the news of you and me, Lao Xu was using his confidence just now. ”
Xiong Yu smiled and said, "It seems that he is still not confident enough. ”
Xiaoyaozi poured Xiong Yu a glass of wine and said in a deep voice: "Sometimes it's not a good thing to be too confident. ”
Xiong Yu paused and said, "I always remember this sentence." ”
Xiaoyaozi's eyes showed a look of relief, and he raised his glass and muttered, "There are still two days, only two days." ”
The food on the table is still very rich, and the wine and food on the table are not only sumptuous, but also luxurious, and the only place that can make such a table of wine and food is Zhang Sanbao's kitchen, because there are the most famous chefs here.
Zhang Sanbao waved his hand, and immediately only he and Tang Qi were left in the room, Zhang Sanbao slowly poured himself a glass of wine, and then poured Tang Qi a glass of wine and said, "I can see that you have something on your mind." ”
Tang Qi paused, suddenly got up and said, "I didn't want to trouble my eldest brother about this matter. ”
Zhang Sanbao smiled and said, "You say, I'll tell you another thing when you finish talking about it." ”
Tang Kai took out something from his arms and put it on the table, Zhang Sanbao looked at this thing, his eyes jumped and said, "Four flowers and thousands of needles?"
Tang Qi nodded and said: "This is the unique secret weapon of the Tang Sect, and this secret weapon represents the glory and achievements of the Tang Sect, but now these are about to be destroyed in my hands." ”
Zhang Sanbao's eyes slowly narrowed and said, "What happened?"
Tang Qi sighed and said: "Qi Tianxing made a bet with me, but he didn't act according to the bet, he secretly acted on his own hands, so I lost." ”
Zhang Sanbao's lips moved: "You are still a little more tender than Qi Tianxing, is the bet between you all four flowers and thousands of needles?"
Tang Kai nodded with a pale face and said, "Yes, what I bet with Qitianxing is the production method of the Four Flowers and Thousand Cylinder Needles." ”
Zhang Sanbao raised the wine glass in front of him and took a big sip and said, "What are you betting on?"
Tang Qi was unwilling to say: "Can I kill Xiong Yu at the martial arts conference?" ”
Zhang Sanbao's eyes suddenly lit up, he opened his eyes and smiled: "Do you want me to come forward to help you settle this matter?"
Tang Qi had no choice but to nod and said: "The words of the third master still have weight in Qi Tianxing's ears, if I am not forced to do so this time, I will never come to trouble the third master, this time I am really desperate." ”
Zhang Sanbao sat down in front of Tang Kai and patted Tang Kai on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I can help you with this matter, but I need a foreshadowing before that." ”
Tang Qi was puzzled: "Foreshadowing?
Zhang Sanbao showed a weird smile and said, "This is exactly what I want to say to you." ”
"Do you know that Xiaoyaozi and Xiong Yu have come to Hebei, and they showed up just last night. Zhang Sanbao said in a deep voice.
Tang Qi was shocked and said, "Xiaoyaozi is still alive?"
Zhang Sanbao nodded and said, "The news is very accurate, I have already sent people to search for Xiaoyaozi's hiding place in the city." ”
Tang Kai said with a grim look in his eyes: "These people must not be able to find Xiaoyaozi." ”
Zhang Sanbao said helplessly: "Yes, the people I sent out searched for a day, and they almost turned this place upside down, but Xiaoyaozi and Xiong Yu seemed to have disappeared, and there was no two of them in the city at all." ”
Tang Kai seemed to have something on his mind, and he paused and said, "Are you sure it's every place?"
Zhang Sanbao thought for a while and said, "As far as I know, I have searched almost every place. ”
Tang Qi frowned and said, "Almost, where else haven't you looked?"
Zhang Sanbao pointed to his nose and said, "The only thing left is where I live." Speaking of this, Zhang Sanbao suddenly seemed to remember something, and he immediately clapped his hands and said, "No, there is another place." ”
Tang Qi hurriedly asked, "Where is it?"
Zhang Sanbao said: "Where does Lao Xu live?"
Tang Qi was puzzled: "Who is Lao Xu?"
Zhang Sanbao said: "Lao Xu is my housekeeper, so I found that I haven't seen him for a day." ”
Tang Qi said with a gloomy face: "Will this old Xu be?"
Zhang Sanbao immediately interrupted Tang Qi's words and said, "No, Lao Xu has been with me for many years, and he will never betray me." ”
Tang Kai slowly got up and walked to the door, turned his back to Zhang Sanbao and said, "What you can think of, Xiaoyaozi must have also thought of it, so Xiaoyaozi will definitely hide in the most unlikely place you think." ”
Zhang Sanbao also got up slowly and said, "You mean that Xiaoyaozi will hide in my mansion?"
Tang Qi shook his head and said, "No, this is too dangerous for him, Xiaoyaozi will definitely not take such a big risk, he chose the danger that is not so dangerous." ”
Zhang Sanbao exclaimed, "Are you saying that Xiaoyaozi is likely to hide in Lao Xu's house?"
Tang Kai turned around and stared into Zhang Sanbao's eyes and said, "It's very likely, so don't miss any place, because the results of negligence will generally be unbearable." ”
Zhang Sanbao nodded and said, "I will send someone to investigate this matter secretly, and now I will talk about your affairs." ”
Tang Qi pointed at himself and said, "Me, don't the third master plan to help me with my affairs?"
Zhang Sanbao showed an old fox-like smile and said: "Your bet with Qi Tianxing is whether you can kill Xiong Yu, although you didn't kill Xiong Yu at the martial arts conference, but now Xiong Yu has appeared, as long as you can kill him, I will be more sure when I talk to Qi Tianxing." ”
Tang Kai's eyes jumped, how could he not know what Zhang Sanbao, the old fox, had in his heart, but now Tang Kai had no choice, he could only nod and say, "I understand." ”
Zhang Sanbao raised his wine glass with a smile and said, "Okay, then it's decided." ”
