"What's going on? Why did the lights go out, who the hell didn't close the door?" Wei shopkeeper felt a little guilty, not only because of the darkness brought by the extinguished candle, but also because of the sound just now.
Most importantly, he wanted to hear the response from his men.
But what made his heart sink was that at this moment, no one responded, as if he was the only one left in the room.
Shopkeeper Wei's first reaction was that it was impossible.
There were more than a dozen of his subordinates in the room, all of them were strong and energetic, and it took only a few breaths from the time when the candle was extinguished, how could something happen
Even if there is an accident, there should be a squeak, it is impossible that there is no sound at all.
Shopkeeper Wei, who had never encountered such a situation, intuitively knew that something was wrong.
He didn't dare to move.
There is only one exit from this room, and now the door is closed, no other light comes in, the candlelight is suddenly extinguished, and there is no sound from the dozen or so subordinates at this moment.
Something must have happened.
Shopkeeper Wei's beast pet was outside, it was a crack-toothed vicious dog, just now he wanted to use the power of the blood contract to call the beast pet in, but there was no response to the order he issued.
He dared not move.
He didn't even dare to breathe out, he thought about jumping up suddenly, then rushed to open the door and run away, but he didn't dare.
No matter who blew out the candles, no matter who silenced his dozen or so subordinates, or even silenced the beast pets outside, he couldn't deal with it.
Shopkeeper Wei still has this self-knowledge.
wait.
Especially waiting for the unknown possibility is often quite difficult, and he knows very well in his heart that waiting for the last thing may be very scary.
After a brief silence, a flame burst out of nowhere, and then landed on the extinguished candle, re-igniting the candle.
The dark room finally had light.
Shopkeeper Wei saw his brother lying on the ground at the first sight, motionless. Obviously, the moment the candle was blown out just now, his group of brothers were overthrown.
This method is amazing.
No matter who it is, they cannot be dealt with by themselves.
Looking ahead again, a person appeared.
The upper body of this person was hidden in the darkness, and he couldn't see his face clearly. He was sitting at the gambling table opposite him at this moment.
The scene was too scary, and shopkeeper Wei could be regarded as a coward, but the more he has seen the bloody storms in the rivers and lakes, the more he understands when to give up.
He immediately opened his mouth and said: "I, Wei Youcai, opened a casino. I will inevitably offend people when I do things on weekdays. If I do something wrong, please forgive me. I will make up for it. Just take the money on the table and let's hand it over. Friend. If you talk about it because of other things, if it can be done, I will say nothing."
Hit the road!
Shopkeeper Wei is worthy of being the leader of the gangsters in Tianxuan City. He really knows the current affairs and knows how to advance and retreat.
Sitting opposite the table is naturally Lin Jin.
To him, this Wei Youcai was insignificant, not worth mentioning at all, Lin Jin came here only to ask about the whereabouts of that noble son.
That's Lin Jin's purpose.
Lin Jin remembered that Wei Youcai called that noble son, the big boss.
"Where is your big boss?"
Lin Jin asked a question.
Wei Youcai was stunned, his heart was beating wildly, and Lin Jin immediately added: "You only have one chance to speak, don't waste it."
Sweat dripped from Wei Youcai's forehead.
This is a matter of life and death.
He knew very well that if he said he didn't know or lied, there was only one fate.
die.
Wei Youcai didn't want to die.
Although he knew very well that betraying the big boss would not end well, but one would die immediately and the other would die tomorrow, and there were still several hours before dawn, so he might still have a chance to escape.
And if the other party is looking for the big boss, it means that they are not looking for themselves.
This is a good thing.
So he quickly made a decision, but before he said it, he had the courage to ask: "Your Excellency is looking for our big boss to seek revenge?"
"Is it related to you?"
"Our big boss is in his house, not far from here. Go out and turn right. Go to the end of the third alley in front. The innermost courtyard is there. There is a stone statue of Emperor Wu in front of the door, which is easy to identify."
When Wei Youcai saw that the person opposite had a bad tone just now, he immediately betrayed the big boss without hesitation.
He knew very well that after saying this, the big boss would not let him go, so he had to run away overnight. Fortunately, Wei Youcai had left some retreats for himself over the years, so he would not be like a headless chicken run around.
"You'd better not lie, otherwise no matter where you run, you will definitely die."
The candle flickered for a while, maybe it was a trance, and the person opposite disappeared.
Wei Youcai got up in a hurry, and he didn't dare to look at the dozen or so brothers lying on the ground. When he saw that the silver bills on the table were still there, he wrapped the tablecloth together and went out immediately without saying a word.
He wanted to leave overnight, the farther he went, the better.
It's just that he didn't know that the silver needle in his body was still there, so Lin Jin had to do something, otherwise, if the other party had lied just now, where would Lin Jin go to find him
But in Lin Jin's view, this Wei Youcai probably wouldn't lie.
Like this kind of local snake, who hangs around at the bottom, don't look at his mouth saying that loyalty is the first, but when something happens, he will definitely not share weal and woe with you.
Lin Jin soon arrived at the place Wei Youcai said.
He saw the courtyard gate at the deepest part of the alley, and there was indeed a stone statue of Emperor Wu at the gate.
According to legend, Emperor Wu was a master of martial arts hundreds of years ago. Others were studying animal pets and blood contract techniques, but this Emperor Wu found a different way to practice martial arts and became one of the current masters.
Later, he was respected as Emperor Wu by the world, and many martial arts practitioners erected his stone statues in the courtyard in front of their gates to show their heart of practicing martial arts and to show their respect.
On the street during the day, when Master Gu fought against the opponent, Lin Jin could tell that the opponent was a martial arts master.
Looking at it now, it should be right, only Wu Xiu would live in this kind of place.
Lin Jin had also practiced some superficial martial arts before, and it was right to strengthen his body, so naturally he could not be called a real martial artist.
Using the blinding technique, Lin Jin rose up on the clouds and floated into the courtyard.
The yard was very spacious and was swept spotless. After Lin Jin fell to the ground, he looked at the house over there and walked forward. There were no beasts guarding the yard in this yard, which saved some effort.
But soon, Lin Jin knew that he was careless.
He accidentally bumped into something when he was going up the steps, and he heard a bell ring next to him.
It should be a spider silk mechanism.
The next moment, a cold light shot out from the room and went straight to Lin Jin's door. The speed was so fast that people couldn't react in time. Fortunately, Lin Jin knew something was wrong when he heard the bell, so he hurriedly dodged sideways, and the arrow almost hit him. Cheeks flew by.
"so close!"
Before Lin Jin could stand still, two more cold lights flew out of the room, this time it was more dangerous, because following the cold light, a figure also came out of the window.
The opponent is a master of martial arts, if he is allowed to get close, Lin Jin may not even be able to use his spells in time.
"small fire!"
Lin Jin immediately made a magic formula, and at the same time flicked his sleeves, dozens of silver needles flew out, blocked the point with his face, and heard two jingling sounds, and the two flying knives were shot down by the silver needles.
If he was one step slower, Lin Jin would definitely be stabbed.
Xiao Huo already flew out of a ball of flames, entangled the figure on the opposite side.
It can be said that the whole process is extremely dangerous.
