Wen Butao smiled and said, "So, Capt. Lu has already arranged my escape route?"

"Take people's money and eliminate disasters with them." Lu Hong said: "Since I want to take your money, I naturally have to help you figure out a way out. Boss Wen, I wonder if you will agree to my proposal?"

Wen Butao was thoughtful and said softly: "If I tell you the whereabouts of the money now, can you let me go?"

"As long as I am sure that what Boss Wen said is true, I will naturally untie you and I will not care about where you are going." Lu Hong stood up and took two steps towards Wen Budao: "Wen

If the boss is willing, you can tell me the whereabouts of the silver now, so that I can let you escape earlier."

Wen Budao sighed: "Wen has been in the world for many years and knows that people's hearts are sinister... Of course, that doesn't mean that Lu Baotou must have bad intentions. It's just that if I were Lu Baotou, I would get

If you know the whereabouts of that money, you will definitely not show mercy, and you will definitely kill people and silence them." Looking into Lu Hong's eyes, he said with a half-smile but not a smile: "How can I be sure that the arrester will not kill me and silence me?"

The corners of Lu Hong's eyes twitched. At this moment, he heard laughter coming from outside the door, and then a voice came in: "Captain, I said before, this person is very cunning, you can't catch him, if you want to get rid of him,

Asking for the answer from his mouth would be as difficult as climbing to the sky." As soon as he finished speaking, a figure slowly walked into the house, tall and strong, and it turned out to be Qiao Leshan, Wen Budao's sworn brother.

When Wen Budao saw Qiao Leshan come in, he was not surprised at all, his expression remained unchanged, and he even said with a slight smile: "Leshan, you should have been here a long time ago, why let Lu arrest the head bother you."

Qiao Leshan actually saluted Wen Budao: "Brother!"

"It's not easy for you to call me big brother." Wen Butao smiled and said, "Find a place to sit by yourself."

Qiao Leshan nodded and said with a smile, "How are you always, eldest brother?"

"It's not bad." Wen Butao also nodded and said, "You should have been paying attention to my movements in the past six months. You have no worries about food and clothing in Jiazi Prison. Although the place is a bit small, you don't have to worry about it. You have enough food and clothing.

It’s considered free and easy.”

Qiao Leshan smiled and said: "My eldest brother is doing well, so I'm relieved." He sighed and said, "It's just that my sister-in-law has been crying in the past six months, worried that my eldest brother will suffer in prison. Although I want to take care of myself in prison.

Second, I really don’t have any spare cash in my hands.”

"I understand." Wen Budao said very considerately: "You have never found the money in the basement, so naturally you are not rich."

"Brother, can you tell me where the money is?" Qiao Leshan said with a bitter smile: "In the past six months, I have searched every corner of the gambling house, and I have moved every brick in the basement to look for it, but I can't find it.

Still can't find any clue."

Wen Butao was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Leshan, as of this month, we have known each other for six years and three months. I should remember correctly, right?"

"That's right." Qiao Leshan nodded.

Wen Budao added: "The Golden Gou Gambling House has been able to carve out a huge empire in Turtle City. You deserve the greatest credit. Along the way, you and I have endured a lot of hardships and suffered a lot. If it weren't for you and I, we would be united."

, Golden Hook Gambling House cannot survive for half a year, and it may cease to exist."

"So eldest brother remembers it?" Qiao Leshan sighed: "As the saying goes, people can share hardships but not wealth. Brother, you really can't help me."

"oh?"

"You and I came together during the most difficult time of the Golden Gou Gambling House, but when we became rich, you separated us." Qiao Leshan said coldly: "Only you can open the underground bank of the gambling house. How many are there?"

Yinzi, even I don’t know, what kind of brother do you think this is?”

Wen Budao stared into Qiao Leshan's eyes and said slowly: "Some things, the less you know, is a blessing. Knowing too much may bring disaster to you. Leshan, I have always regarded you as a brother, really.

, just before I was imprisoned, I always regarded you as a brother, and I had even made a decision at that time. After I came out of the prison, I would immediately hand over the entire Golden Hook Casino to your hands."

"Now that you say something like this, do you think I will believe it?" Qiao Leshan said with a smile, "Brother, do you really think I am a three-year-old child?"

"Whether you believe it or not, what I'm telling you is the truth." Wen Butao said slowly: "In fact, it's only the last step before I truly trust you completely, and I will tell you the unknown secret.

It's just a pity that I want you to do bigger things with me...!" He shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "It's just one step away, just the last step, you didn't persist to the end after all." in his tone.

, full of regret.

After Qiao Leshan entered the room, Lu Hong remained silent. At this time, he couldn't help but ask: "Wen Budao, what is the secret you are talking about?"

"The arrester also wants to know?" Wen Butao glanced at Lu Hong and said with a faint smile: "I advise you not to know. You are still alive now, but if you know the truth, you will die in an ugly way."

Lu Hong's face darkened, he stepped forward, kicked Wen Butao in the chest, kicked Wen Butao down on the wooden bed, and cursed in a deep voice: "Wen, you are a dead dog now, and you are still here making alarmist remarks.

, do you really think we don’t dare to kill you?”

"Of course I don't dare." Wen Butao struggled to sit up and said disdainfully: "Lu Hong, you are colluding with Qiao Leshan in private and working for him. Isn't your purpose just to get money from me? You haven't got the money yet.

, where do you have the courage to kill me?"

Lu Hong clenched his fists, his eyes widened with anger, and wanted to step forward. Qiao Leshan said solemnly: "Don't be angry when you catch the head." He persuaded Lu Hong, and then said: "Brother, I am not a person who kills everyone. Please tell me the money."

Where is it? Let's divide the money into three parts. Each of the three of us will have a share. If you still want to run the gambling house, I will bring the money into the customs. If you don't want to stay in Turtle City, the gambling house will be handed over to you.

I, I will definitely make Golden Hook Casino famous all over the world."

"What if I don't say it?"

"Then don't blame brother for being cruel." Qiao Leshan said with a bitter smile: "I don't want to take this step, but there are some roads where once you take the first step, you can't look back."

Wen Butao smiled and said, "If you kill me, you won't get the money."

"What Mr. Lu said just now is not wrong." Qiao Leshan said: "I can't get that money. When brother comes out, you can rely on that money to force me into a desperate situation, and I really don't have the financial resources to buy it off."

The Fenggan Mansion has imposed the death penalty on my eldest brother. As long as my eldest brother lives in this world, I will not be able to live in peace."

Wen Budao nodded and said, "These are the people who do great things if they are cruel and ruthless."

"So brother, don't force me." Qiao Leshan looked into Wen Budao's eyes and said, "My sister-in-law is still waiting for me, why don't you even care about her?"

Wen Butao closed his eyes and sighed softly without saying much.

At this moment, I suddenly heard an exclamation from outside: "It's on fire, it's on fire!"

The sound came so unexpectedly that Qiao Leshan and Lu Hong turned around and looked out the door, only to see the firewood shed in the corner of the courtyard bursting into flames and changing color. Qiao Leshan rushed out quickly, and Lu Hong hurriedly followed.

The east corner of the inn is the kitchen, and the west corner is the woodshed. There is naturally firewood in the woodshed. I don’t know who lit the woodshed on fire. The fire is raging, and in the blink of an eye, a fire has broken out. "Fight the fire!" Lu Hong's conditioned reflex

He had to rush to the kitchen to get water.

The two cadres who followed Lu Hong to escort Wen Budao did not show any reaction in the room, and even the cadres at the post station did not come out.

However, Qiao Leshan rushed to the gate of the inn and opened the courtyard door. Four strong men outside the courtyard gate all had knives in their hands. When they saw Qiao Leshan, they immediately approached him. One of them already said: "Brother Shan, are you going to take action?

"

"Who burned down the woodshed?" Qiao Leshan looked sternly: "Who just shouted that there was a fire?"

The four big men looked at each other and shook their heads. One of them said: "We saw a sudden fire bursting into the sky in the yard, and we didn't know what the situation was. We heard someone shouting that there was a fire, and we didn't know whether we should rush in."

Qiao Leshan was startled, suddenly realized something, and said in a voiceless voice: "Not good." He turned around and rushed towards Wen Budao's room. The four strong men also knew that the situation had changed, and they rushed over with their swords in hand.

Qiao Leshan rushed into the house, his face changed drastically, and he saw that Wen Budao, who was sitting on the bed, had disappeared.

"Brother Shan, he ran away through the back window." One person raised a knife and pointed toward the back window.

At this time, Lu Hong had also rushed in. When he saw the back window opened, his face was extremely horrified. Without saying a word, he rushed to the back window and was the first to climb out of the window.

"We can't let him run away." Qiao Leshan said with murderous intent in his eyes: "Chase him!" He led a few people under his command and climbed out from the back window.

Only the front of the inn was surrounded by a yard, and the back window opened out into the wilderness. In the darkness, it was impossible to see where Wen Budao was running.

Qiao Leshan said in a deep voice: "He is in shackles and can't run far. Chang Er, you go east and chase him. Liang Fu, you go west. The remaining two follow me and chase him south."

The few people moved quickly and divided into three groups. The foot of Qiao Le Mountain was like flying, and they led the two men straight to the south in pursuit. Soon they saw Lu Hong in front of them and shouted: "Capture the head, can you see them?"

"There is a shadow in front of me." Lu Hong said coldly, "I can't run away."

After hearing this, several people became energetic. They all knew that Wen Budao was shackled after all and had difficulty moving. Now that they saw his back, they couldn't run away even if they wanted to.

Qiao Leshan even sent a signal to summon the other two companions.

Sure enough, before he had chased him far, he saw a shadow flickering in front of him. Qiao Leshan could see clearly that there was not only one figure there. He was suspicious, and then he figured out that someone must have set fire to the woodshed.

Everyone noticed that when the tiger was being lured away from the mountain, Wen Budao was secretly rescued.

"It's him!" Lu Hong said in a deep voice.

Wen Budao was shackled and couldn't run very fast. The man next to him was holding Wen Budao's arm, obviously trying to escape with Wen Budao.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Qiao Leshan's mouth, and he made a gesture. The two men spread out, one on the left and the other on the right. Their feet were very fast. In the blink of an eye, they had blocked Wen Budao's path. At this time, Qiao Leshan's other two men

Many of his subordinates had also arrived, and several of them surrounded Wen Budao.

Wen Budao and the man beside him stopped. Lu Hong saw that the man who rescued Wen Budao was not very tall. He was dressed in coarse clothes and wearing a bamboo hat. The most conspicuous thing was that there was a wine bottle hanging on his waist.

Gourd, when he saw the wine gourd, Lu Hong's body was shaken and he lost his voice: "Qin...Qin Xiao!"
