Chapter 768: Sword

When a piece of broken silver was taken away, Li Hu suddenly stretched out his hand and slapped it heavily on the gambling table, and shouted: "What kind of black gambling house are you opening, the fucking net is out of the old thousand, and you cheated Lao Tzu's silver taels!"

He slapped the table and yelled, causing the gamblers around him to dodge in fright, and three or four of the patrol men in the square hurried up.

The leader was a middle-aged man, who hugged his fist at Li Hu and said: "This military master is invited! Brother Dou Fei is the deacon of this Wanli gambling house, this square gambling has always been fair, and there has never been a thousand things, if there is a place where the greeting is not good, I also hope that the military master Haihan one or two!"

In the gambling house, there are often people who lose all the silver and make trouble, and this middle-aged man who patrols the field has seen a lot, although Li Hu is dressed as a palace guard, and he looks like he is not small, and he is still neither humble nor arrogant, soft and hard.

Li Hu stared at the round eyes and shouted: "If you don't have a thousand old people, how can you open ten cards in a row, and each one just eats the truth of Lao Tzu!"

The middle-aged man Dou Fei smiled slightly, and said: "The military master is a bit of a layman when he says this! People who play pai gow should know that winning or losing several handfuls in a row is a common thing, and it is not strange that the banker's card just suppresses the player. Master Jun's luck is not good today, I think it's better not to bet anymore, how about playing again another day?"

Li Hu snorted angrily and said: "What kind of gambling luck is not good, it's really nonsense! Lao Tzu is gambling today, and if he wants to bet, I don't believe that I can't win back the capital! Lao Tzu has no silver on him, so first bet on this knife and convert it into one hundred taels of silver!"

As he spoke, he reached out and pulled out the saber at his waist, slamming it on the table. Although this waist knife is also a sharp weapon, it is far less than a hundred taels of silver, and Li Hu is already playing a scoundrel by doing this.

Even if Li Hu is dressed as a palace guard, but among those who can open a gambling house in the capital, which one is not deeply rooted and has a very hard background, how can he be afraid of him. Seeing this, several thugs next to him rolled up their sleeves and geared up, ready to step forward.

Dou Fei's face changed slightly, but he hurriedly stopped the actions of his subordinates, and said: "The military master does this, but it makes my brother embarrassed! Although this workshop accepts the mortgage of the guests' property, it is limited to gold, silver, jewelry, land deeds, and house deeds, and the specific amount of silver, Dou Someone said that it doesn't count." If the military master has to take this knife, please go to the back hall with Dou Mou, and discuss it after seeing the shopkeeper of the workshop?"

The gambling house is originally a place to make a living, and when you encounter a strongman and a scoundrel looking for trouble, doing something in the hall is bound to affect the business, and it is a good strategy to take it to the back to solve it.

Li Hu did not show weakness, and said: "Okay, Lao Tzu will go and see what the boss of your gambling house looks like! Hmph, I can make it clear first, when I see him, Lao Tzu's knife will at least pay thirty taels more!"

Dou Fei's face was gloomy, and he stretched out his hand and said, "Then the military master is here, please!"

Li Hu grabbed the knife on the table, followed Dou Fei through the hall, and walked towards the back hall.

There is a zigzag corridor behind the gambling hall and a winding corridor, walking out of more than ten zhang along the corridor, facing a closed wooden door in front of it, and there are two guards standing in front of the door.

Dou Fei walked closer, knocked on the door twice, and said, "Shopkeeper, the person who made trouble in front has already been brought!"

But he heard a voice inside the door, "Let him in." ”

Dou Fei stretched out his hand to push open the door and said to Li Hu: "The shopkeeper is in the house, please come in!"

Li Hu snorted and swaggered in with his knife. Although the arrogant and arrogant look on Li Hu's face did not change, his heart was shocked, because he could hear that the voice that came from inside the door just now was the voice of the stone boss.

Inside the door was a small study, and there was only one person in the room, sitting with his back in front of the sandalwood table in the center. When the wooden door closed behind Li Hu, the man turned around, it was not Hua Bushi!

Hua Bushi is still dressed as a rich young master. Compared with when he was separated from Li Hu before, he was obviously thinner, and his face was paler, which made people feel a slightly sickly weakness, but what remained unchanged was that his eyes were still bright as stars, and the smile on his face was still warm.

Li Hu had already returned the steel knife in his hand to the sheath, took two steps forward, and fell to the ground with a "poof" sound, and said, "Li Hu meets the stone boss!"

Hua Bushi hurriedly stretched out his hand and pulled him to the chair to sit down, the eldest young master was holding Li Hu's hand, his expression was joyful, his lips trembled slightly, and he couldn't speak for a while.

Li Hu is not just an apprentice for Hua Bushi. Among the "Five Little Dogs", the first to follow Hua Bushi was Li Hu, as early as the beginning of the "Stone Gang" established in Wuyang City, Li Hu had already given his life to the stone boss, and the friendship between them was deeper than that of brothers who lived and died together!

After a few breaths, the eldest young master's excitement subsided slightly, and said, "When you came into the 'Wanli Gambling House', was there someone behind you?"

Li Hu said: "Yes." However, it is not uncommon to lose all the money and make trouble, and I often do it in Fuyang City, as long as I don't stay here for too long, it should be fine. ”

Hua Bushi nodded, but his face suddenly sank, and said: "Before you infiltrated the 'Heavenly Punishment', I had repeatedly instructed you to be cautious and cautious in your actions, and not to take risks easily, why didn't you listen to me!"

Li Hu was stunned and said, "My affairs in Fuyang City, the boss knows everything?"

Hua Bushi said: "I have long let the 'Thousand Flowers Fang' set up ears and eyes in Fuyang City, just for your safety, those spies don't know your identity, but every action of the Xunli group will have a secret report passed to me." You risked your life this time, you know how worried I was when I got the news!"

Li Hu laughed a few times and said, "Didn't the boss also say that this time I infiltrated the 'Heavenly Punishment', everything is up to me to make my own decisions, if I want to catch the big spider of the monarch's father, how can I succeed without taking some risks?" Boss, don't worry, they can't kill me so easily!"

Han Jiuzhong, a traitor who was captured in Fuyang City and impersonated as the "Kongtong faction", was actually a plan that Li Hu had already calculated!

If you want to remove the bottom and crack the "Heavenly Punishment", you must enter the "Divine Monarch Hall" to catch the first evil monarch father, and Li Hu has been in the Xunli group in Fuyang City for more than a year, but he has not made much progress, and his patience has long been exhausted. In order to achieve his goal, he did not hesitate to deliberately expose his identity and let the "Heavenly Punishment" be captured, in order to change the current situation and join the Shenjun Hall.

The biggest danger of this is whether the "Heavenly Punishment" will leave Han Jiuzhong without killing, if Shi Qingzhu orders to be killed that day, then Li Hu will undoubtedly lose his life in vain if he does this.

Hua Bushi said with a calm face: "How can you be sure?"

Li Hu looked indifferent and said, "Although I didn't know that Wu Xianglian was a Divine Hall Priest before, she could see that I was not Liu Xiong, and I also saw that she was not as simple as she said. She had doubts about my identity, but she didn't take action, she must have wanted to take advantage of it, and she wouldn't have killed me easily, and I was at least seven or eight percent sure of that. ”

Hua Bushi stared at Li Hu's face, and after a while, his frowns gradually expanded, and he exhaled a long breath and said, "You are right, it seems that the 'Heavenly Punishment' must have a very important action that requires the participation of masters, and Han Jiuzhong is of great value to them, so he will not kill you easily." It is indeed a wise move for you to pretend to be Han Jiuzhong and enter the Divine Monarch Hall. ”

When he said this, the eldest young master's eyes when he looked at Li Hu had changed a little.

For a long time, Li Hu has always been a desperate San Lang who is not afraid of the sky and the earth under the "Evil Dog Gate", and there are many times to fight for his life, but there is very little time to think about problems, but now, Hua Bushi suddenly understood one thing, Li Hu's recklessness in the past was actually only because of his absolute trust in his "boss", so that he gave his life to him without reservation!

In fact, Li Hu is by no means a simple-minded person, this time he has been lurking alone in the Xunli group for a few years, his courage and skills have been further tempered, and his mind is much more mature than before, which is enough to make Hua Bushi look at him with admiration.

Li Hu smiled "hehe" and said, "The boss has won the award!" I'm just tired of staying in the Xunli group, so I have to use my brains, if it weren't for the fake identity of Han Jiuzhong prepared by the boss in advance, I wouldn't be able to play this ghost trick!"

Hua Bushi said: "Okay, since this trick has begun, we have to continue singing." You should not stay here for too long, so you should hurry up and tell me the details of the operation of the 'Heavenly Punishment', and we can also try to deal with it." ”

Li Hu responded: "Yes." ”

Li Hu didn't know much about the operation of "Tianzhu", so he only summoned Shi Qingzhu to a group of "Tianzhu" killers, ordered them to pretend to be the guards of the palace, bought off the commander Huang Kui, and mixed into the convoy of Zhu Yousong, the prince of King Fu, to enter Beijing.

Hua Bushi listened carefully to Li Hu and asked, "In this way, this operation is going to assassinate the target, the time, place and Jihua arrangement of the operation, and you still don't know anything about it?"

Li Hu said: "Yes, Shi Qingzhu probably can't fully trust us, and she must not say it before she arrives at the juncture." ”

Hua Bushi said: "If you want to enter the capital, there are still many feasible ways, all of which are much simpler than mixing into the convoy of King Fu's prince, she should have ulterior motives for arranging this way, maybe it has something to do with Jihua in this assassination operation." ”

Li Hu said: "I think it's probably the case." ”

Hua Bushi pondered for a moment and said, "Since this is the case, Shi Qingzhu should be the main figure in the action of 'Heavenly Punishment'. You go back to the post house for the time being, I will send people to set up an ambush around the post house, and when Shi Qingzhu appears again, I will immediately launch a campaign to capture her, and I must know all the details from her mouth. ”
