Wen Budao was just like when he was talking to Qin Xiao in Jiazi Prison, he crossed his arms across his chest and said with a smile: "You are right. If I really didn't want to go to prison at that time, there were a hundred ways to do it.
But I didn't do that. The reason is very simple. Firstly, it was to test Qiao Leshan, and secondly, it was to protect myself."
"I do not understand."
"My taste is really bad. For many years, I have always thought that Qiao Leshan is trustworthy." Wen Budao sighed: "I don't know whether he tolerates it too well or changes too quickly. I have been in Turtle City for many years and have a good reputation."
Gou Gambling House has stabilized its position. Even if I leave, with Qiao Leshan's talent, I can still keep the gambling house running smoothly." He raised his head slightly, looked at the night sky and said: "I have been away from my lord for many years, and it's time to return to him.
time, so I am indeed prepared to hand over the gambling house to him."
Qin Xiao sighed: "If he can wait patiently, he will be able to get what he wants."
"The gambling house is one of our most important places. If I want to hand over the gambling house to Qiao Leshan, I naturally need the lord's approval." Wen Budao said slowly: "I have been in prison for one year because I hope Qiao Leshan can prove himself.
Without my gambling house, he can still do well, can stand alone, and can still be loyal to me. Only in this way can the lord trust him, and only in this way can he enter the Wild West Deathwing, and then control the gambling for us.
Square.”
Qin Xiaodao: "Uncle God of Gamblers worked hard, but unfortunately he was let down by Qiao Leshan."
"It's my fault too." Wen Butao said with a wry smile: "He has been with me for many years, and he was really in tune with me in the early years, so I have a lot of trust in him. When I committed that case, I didn't think it was his plan. I just thought it was him.
It was my own negligence. If I had known that he had that intention and stopped him in time, I might not have reached this stage today."
Qin Xiao saw that his tone was quite helpless, and he understood in his heart that although Qiao Leshan was killed today, the two of them had a heart-to-heart relationship with each other before. If it wasn't a last resort, Wen Budao might really spare his life.
.
"Besides, I am willing to go to jail to protect myself." Wen Budao said calmly: "I married a wife and bought a house in Turtle City to protect my true identity. After all, I have the largest gambling house in Turtle City.
If I do anything, I will be watched by many people. If I really use the power behind it, I can avoid jail, but it will also make people suspicious. Instead, I have to go to jail and serve my sentence, so that people will no longer pay attention.
.If I can use one year to let Qiao Leshan prove himself and protect himself, why wouldn’t I do it?”
Qin Xiao secretly thought that although Wen Budao got rid of Qiao Leshan, he was afraid that he would not be happy either.
After all, he spent so much time thinking about cultivating Qiao Leshan, but who knew that Qiao Leshan would betray him in the end. Emotionally speaking, Wen Budao couldn't be indifferent, and he must be feeling quite uncomfortable deep down in his heart.
The most important thing is that after this incident, Wen Budao will never return to the gambling house. The gambling house run by Huangxi Deathyi is about to be lost. This is of course also a big blow to Huangxi Deathyi.
.
"Uncle God of Gamblers, I heard what Qiao Leshan said. He dared to take risks and betray his elder brother because the Zhenhou Mansion was behind him." Qin Xiao whispered: "Do you think what he said is true or false?"
Wen Butao smiled and said, "Do you know why Qiao Leshan wanted to confess to the Zhenhou Mansion?"
Qin Xiao thought for a moment and then said softly: "Qiao Leshan knew that Uncle God of Gamblers was from Death Wing in the Wild West, and he would definitely die. Before he died, he revealed that there was Zhenhou Mansion behind him, so Uncle God of Gamblers might find Zhenhou
Trouble with the government?"
"Oh?" Wen Butao said with a smile: "Do you think I will be an enemy of the Zhenhou Mansion?"
"The moment Qiao Leshan knew the true identity of Uncle God of Gamblers, he might have felt particularly regretful." Qin Xiao sighed: "If it weren't for the support or even coercion of the Zhen family, he might not have dared to betray Uncle God of Gamblers, so in his heart
He must have hated the Zhen family very much. Of course, he must have hated you deeply since he died at the hands of the Deathwing Knights. Since both the Wild West Deathwing and the Zhenhou Mansion are hated by him, then it is revealed that the Zhenhou Mansion was involved behind the scenes.
By provoking a fight between Huangxi Death Wing and Zhenhou Mansion, no matter what the outcome, Qiao Leshan will be able to vent his anger."
Wen Budao laughed and said, "You are so young, you have a lot of evil thoughts." But he quickly nodded and said, "But maybe what you said is not wrong."
Both of them fell silent and didn't speak for a short moment.
"By the way, keep all the books I gave you." Wen Budao suddenly said: "Also, when Master Zhao writes his final work, prepare a copy for me to keep.
, if we meet again next time, you must hand it over to me with your own hands."
Qin Xiao laughed, and Wen Butao had already stood up and said: "Brother Qin, Deathwing has appeared. It's not good to stay. I'm going with them."
"Uncle God of Gamblers, take care of yourself." Qin Xiao also stood up.
"You are a righteous person, and righteousness comes first. There is nothing wrong with that." Wen Budao raised his hand and put it on Qin Xiao's shoulder: "But you must be on guard against others. No matter who you deal with in the future, you must keep some of it."
Qin Xiao smiled and said: "Uncle, are you saying that I shouldn't trust you too much?"
"At least you shouldn't take risks." Wen Budao said sternly: "You are loyal to me, but if the Deathwing Knight hadn't arrived in time tonight, we would have been in a very dangerous situation. Why did Qiao Leshan and the man named Lu
If you keep the secret, you will be killed and silenced."
Qin Xiao scratched his head and said: "Uncle God of Gamblers, actually I'm not that generous. If I really can't beat him, I might run away first."
Wen Budao was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
Little did he know that what Qin Xiao said was not a joke.
When Qin Xiao bought cow blood on the way, there happened to be a few hares for sale at the stall, so he asked someone to fill a small porcelain bottle with him with some hare blood.
If you want to fight, then use cow blood to fight. If you can't fight, use hare blood to escape. After all, rabbits can escape faster than anyone else. It would be great to rescue Wen Bu Dao, but there is really no way to save him.
, I can't risk my life in vain.
However, the cow's blood was used tonight, and the small porcelain bottle containing the hare's blood was still in his arms.
Of course Wen Budao didn't know what was going on, and just thought Qin Xiao was joking.
"Stop talking." Wen Budao walked over and took the horse left behind by the Deathwing Knight. Without hesitation, he got on the horse and looked down at Qin Xiaodao: "Good boy, take care of yourself in the future."
"Uncle, Wen Butao is your pseudonym. What is your real name?" Qin Xiao stepped forward and asked.
Wen Budao worked hard in Turtle City, and this name was most likely not his real name. Qin Xiao thought to himself, I have been with you through thick and thin, and I don't even know your real name, which is really a loss.
"In front of you, I will always be Wen Butao." Wen Butao laughed and said, "Don't forget the gambling skills I taught you. Practice them frequently. Maybe you can make a living with this skill in the future.
"With a shake of the horse's reins, he rode in a circle around Qin Xiao. Without another word, the Pegasus galloped away.
Qin Xiao looked at Wen Budao's retreating back and waited until he disappeared into the darkness before he came back to his senses. He then sighed and thought to himself that Wen Budao was really unscrupulous. Since he had horses, he would have sent him to the inn after all.
It's a good idea to walk again, now we have to walk back to the inn.
The corpses of Qiao Leshan and others were lying on the ground and no one paid attention to them. Qin Xiao thought that what happened tonight would eventually be reported to the superiors, and he did not have to worry about these corpses.
When we returned to the inn, the firewood shed had been almost burned down.
After the fire broke out, Qiao Leshan and others did not think about putting out the fire, and went straight out to chase the heat. The firewood shed was burned to a pile of ashes. Fortunately, the firewood shed was still some distance from the main house, and the wind was not strong tonight, so there was no need to worry about it.
There was no fire in the row house.
There was deathly silence in the courtyard, and the group of Wild West Deathwing knights had long since disappeared.
Qin Xiao walked into the room on the far left and saw Lu Hong with his limbs tied and lying on the bed.
The rope used to bind Lu Hong was beef tendon rope, which is the strongest rope Qin Xiao knows so far. It is difficult to cut with an ordinary knife and is very tough.
I don't know which knight brother was kind enough to stuff a large ball of cloth into Lu Hong's mouth, so when Qin Xiao came in, Lu Hong just made a "Uh-huh" sound from his nostrils.
If Qin Xiao still had some respect for Lu Hong in the past, after this incident, the small amount of awe was gone. He stepped forward and took out the cloth ball from Lu Hong's mouth.
He stood beside him with his arms folded, without saying a word.
Lu Hong took a few deep breaths, then struggled to sit up, looked at Qin Xiao and said, "How are you going to report to the Captain?"
"Of course, tell the truth." Qin Xiao said: "Does the arrest of the head also need to conceal the truth from the captain?"
Lu Hong sneered and said, "You saved my life tonight, and I won't thank you. I just want to give you my life."
"What's the meaning?"
"If you report truthfully, disaster will befall you." Lu Hong stared at Qin Xiao: "Let me ask you, when Wen Budao entered prison, he was originally in Prison C, why was he transferred to Prison A?"
Qin Xiao did not hesitate: "I transferred him there."
"Why did you transfer him there?" Lu Hong sneered: "There are dozens of prisoners in Prison B, and there are forty or fifty inmates in Prison C. In addition to prison A where you are in Guicheng Prison, there are also
There are hundreds of prisoners, why did you transfer Wen Budao there?"
"What do you mean?" Qin Xiao vaguely understood something.
"Also, after Wen Budao entered Jiazi Prison, Jingou Gambling House did not spend a single copper coin to manage things in the prison. Wen Budao's wife has never visited the prison once in six months." Lu Hong looked at Qin Xiao.
, with a low voice: "Many people outside know that after entering the Jia-zi prison, you will have no worries about food and clothing, but you will need money. Without money, you will not be able to stay in the Jia-zi prison for long. But after Wen Budao entered the prison, he did not take a tael.
I came out with money, but lived comfortably in Jiazi Prison for half a year, what's the explanation?"
Qin Xiao realized the problem. Lu Hong didn't wait for him to speak and continued: "Wen Budao was imprisoned and was sent to prison B. You tried every means to transfer him to prison A, and then paid for his food and drink for half a year. He
Whatever requirements you have in prison, you try your best to satisfy them...!" He snorted coldly: "But he is from Huangxi Death Wing. Many years ago, Huang Xi Death Wing was a bandit wanted by the government. You take care of him.
Wen Budao, that proves that he has close friendship with the bandits of Huangxi Death Wing. Qin Xiao, you were saved by Meng Zimo and promoted by Han Yunong, but now you are secretly colluding with the thieves. Do you think this matter has been spread?
If you open it and let the Zhenhou Mansion find out, what will be the consequences?"
