Chapter 18: The Beginning

It was a clear day outside the window, but once the window was closed, it was dark. There is not a single light coming in, is there anyone in such a room?

A candle was lit, and the faces of the three people were reflected in the firelight.

Lancang crane, Jing Xiaoke, teacher Wuhua. This room is Lan Canghe's house in Yuehe Town, and Lancang Crane never came, because this house was only under Lancanghe's name a quarter of an hour ago. He paid a tael of silver, and it was a bargain deal.

It's easy to do business with some people. But for some people it may not be.

"I have a question, why does Ghost Ten want to help us?" Jing Xiaoke was particularly puzzled after learning about Ghost Ten's suggestion. Precisely because it is undoubtedly a good idea, but a little too good.

"Yes, what is he drawing?" Shi Wuhua asked.

Lan Canghe didn't speak, the candle flame reflected the wrinkles on his face, he was too old. He used to think about the other party's schemes, but now he prefers simple deals.

"Perhaps, he knows something. Those words were used to test me. Lan Canghe asked, his eyes fixed on Jing Xiaoke.

Jing Xiaoke was stunned for a moment, frowned and said, "You mean he found out that we did those things?"

Lan Canghe shook his head, "There is no flaw in our plan, and Ghost Ten does suspect Thunder Leopard. However, the person who originally found out about this should have been Hanyue, but Hanyue disappeared. Why did he go?"

The other two looked at each other, and they didn't know either.

Cold Moon's sudden disappearance did disrupt some of their plans, they had a series of plans to lead Cold Moon to the person they wanted, and he was the one who solved the mystery. If it weren't for Hanyue's sudden disappearance, Lancang Crane wouldn't have had to talk to Ghost Ten about cooperation at all.

"You promised Ghost Ten?" Jing Xiaoke said again.

Lan Canghe nodded, "If Cold Moon doesn't show up before tonight, then I'll have to strike first." What do you think?"

"Why don't you use the previous moves?" Jing Xiaoke asked.

Lan Canghe did not answer. Instead, he suddenly reached out and caught a drop of fallen wax oil, and the burning sensation that was not even felt at the touch made him feel a pleasure that he had not felt for a long time. His aging heart also had a trace of vitality in an instant, and he raised his head to look at Jing Xiaoke, his voice was as light as a cicada.

"Buying and selling, sometimes you can't blindly hide in the dark, and the yang is plotting with the yin. ”

Experience is all gained over time, Jing Xiao doesn't have much valuable experience, but he still has a lot of doubts, "What if Ao Wushuang doesn't agree? ”

Lan Canghe rubbed his forehead, of course he also took these things into consideration. Lan Canghe smiled: "Let Ghost Ten think about this matter." He brought it up, and of course he had to do something. ”

"What about us?"

"Go find the big boss. ”

As the last sentence faded, the candle flame went out.

Casinos.

It's bustling with people. There are still a lot of gamblers coming and going, and Ao Wushuang is still here. But he wasn't in the mood to gamble. Because he's angry right now. One man told him that there were Lancang cranes who wanted to kill him. Ao Wushuang stared at the person in front of him, "Why should I believe what you say?"

Oni Ten plays with the dice in his hand. Throw it into the air. The dice landed in the cup, and the dice slowly spun faster and faster. Suddenly, Oni Ten closed the lid of the box and turned his head to look at Ao Wushuang, "It's like a gamble, I just gave you a chance to gamble." Now you can guess what the numbers are. ”

Oni Ten took his hand away. Waiting for Ao Wushuang's answer.

Ao Wushuang's face was cloudy, and like Lancang Crane, they were a little uncertain about the other party's intentions regarding Ghost Ten's sudden visit.

But looking at the ghost, he has a fearless appearance. Ao Wushuang said in the spirit of believing that he had something or not: "Thunder, go and see the big boss." ”

"Yes. ”

Thunder received an order from Ao Wushuang and left immediately.

Out of the gambling house, Thunder went straight to the direction of the inn. When they arrived at the door of the big leader's room, the guard guarding the door said that the second leader, Lan Canghe, had just entered. If there is something to hope that Thunder can wait, Thunder was shocked, and the words of the guard slowly confirmed the facts in his heart.

Thunder was still trying to investigate, but suddenly heard a voice from the room.

"Go and invite the three leaders to be arrogant, and say that the big leaders have something to discuss. ”

The guard made a promise, but did not move. Thunder signaled that he would convey it on his behalf, not daring to stay here for a while, Thunder hurriedly returned to the gambling house.

"Third brother, Lancang Crane really went to find the big boss. Thunder said anxiously.

Ao Wushuang looked at Ghost Ten intently, but the latter had an indifferent expression and said with a smile: "I didn't expect him to act quite fast." Let me think about it, maybe the order of the big boss will come in a moment, and then you will be able to do it or not?"

Ao Wushuang looked at Thunder, who nodded.

"The big boss asked the third brother to go, saying that he had something to discuss. ”

Hearing this, Ao Wushuang was furious, if it was really as Ghost Ten said, then Lancang Crane really wanted to kill himself. Ao Wushuang suddenly glared at Ghost Ten and said, "How did you know about this?"

Ghost Ten said lightly: "That's because Lancang Crane needs me to invite you, and he laid a trap for me to invite you to jump in." When the time comes, I will divide your power equally with him. ”

"It's as simple as that?"

"There is also the three leaders who insist on the death of the cold moon and insist on attacking the border city. This made it very difficult for those of us who were happy and idle, so we dared to cooperate with him. ”

"In that case, why are you telling me?"

"I changed my mind. Oni Ten laughed.

Ao Wushuang is not stupid, looking at the appearance of Ghost Ten, he knows that this is because he wants to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. But this is indeed a trap, a trap that is excellent for Ao Wushuang to deal with the Lancang Crane, and he can't help but try such a temptation.

"Since Lancang Crane is unkind, don't blame me for being unjust. Thunder to mobilize people, we will calculate. Ao Wushuang took one last look at Oni Eleven and ordered.

"Yes. ”

Ao Wushuang took the two brothers of Thunder and Thunder Leopard out of the gambling house.

The gambling house is back to its usual hustle and bustle. Oni Ten lifted the lid from the dice cup on the table, and was surprised that there were no dice inside. In other words, Ghost Ten didn't actually put the dice in the cup. Oni Ten spread out his palm, and there was indeed a small dice standing on it.

"Hao Yu, who do you think will win in the final result of their game?"

Hao Yu is bored, he is not good at gambling, but it is a good thing. Hearing Ghost Ten's question, he said: "It doesn't matter who wins or loses, since we are the bankers, we will definitely not lose." ”

Yehua nodded on the side.

Ghost Ten smiled and didn't speak, he only knew how to practice swords all his life, never played chess, and gambled on dice once. But now there was a big game of chess in front of him, which was far more difficult than letting himself use a sword to cut people.

"Let's go, we're going to get ready, too. (To be continued......)
