Chapter 622 Encountering Black Pearl on the Road
Chu Liuxiang glanced at the fleeing Shen Shangu, then turned to Jin Banhua, "Brother Jin, aren't you going to chase her?"
"Miss Shen is in a state of mental distress right now. If Brother Jin can comfort her with kind words, he may be able to get close to her." Chu Liuxiang said with a smile.
Jin Banhua shook her head, "I'm not interested in Miss Shen now."
"Oh?" Chu Liuxiang raised his eyebrows.
Jin Banhua looked at the scroll on the table, "I'm only interested in this painting now."
Chu Liuxiang smiled bitterly and advised, "But this is a painting from 20 years ago. Even if this Madam Qiu was as beautiful as a fairy back then, she is now an old woman in her forties."
Jin Banhua pointed at Chu Liuxiang who was putting the scroll away, "But it's hard not to see each other, isn't it the same for Brother Zhang?"
Liao Gang and Ye Jinzhi were shocked when they heard this.
Sir, didn't you hear what Sun Xuepu said just now?
That's not a simple character. Not only is she called a witch, but she is also obviously involved in a mysterious and terrifying incident. This is not something we can get involved in!
Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but touch his nose, "I'm looking for her because of another matter."
Jin Banhua nodded and said, "That's even better, we won't have a conflict."
Chu Liuxiang, "..."
Chu Liuxiang sighed and finally told the truth, "Brother Jin, because of this woman, four well-known masters in the world have died, and the murderer's martial arts are extremely high. It's very dangerous to participate in this matter."
Hearing this, Jin Banhua didn't say anything yet, but Sun Xuepu was stunned, "Four?"
"Yes, four." Chu Liuxiang looked at Sun Xuepu, "The four people who had a relationship with Madam Qiu and received her portrait, and the four people who came out again because of her letter for help, are all dead."
Sun Xuepu's face changed suddenly.
"Not only these four people are dead, but also several people who knew the contents of the letter are dead. This is only because the murderer did not want me to know their relationship with her. It can be seen that Mrs. Qiu's difficulties have not been resolved." Chu Liuxiang said lightly, "So... I know you are still hiding something, maybe you still want to protect her, but if you are still unwilling to tell what you know, maybe she is really in danger." Sun Xuepu was silent for a moment, and finally said, "You forgot to ask me one thing just now." "What is it?" "You forgot to ask me where I painted her portrait." "Where?" "There is a Wuyi Temple five miles out of the city. I painted her portrait there. The abbot of the temple, Master Suxin, is her best friend. I think he knows her whereabouts." Sun Xuepu said. Chu Liuxiang's eyes lit up, he reached out to pick up the scroll, and in a blink of an eye he was out of the house, and at the same time his voice came from afar, "Although my eyes are blind, my heart is not blind. If I use my heart as my eyes, can't I paint... Brother Sun, think about it carefully, take care of yourself."
Sun Xuepu was shocked and asked loudly, "Thank you for your advice. May I ask your name?"
Unfortunately, he didn't know how to use internal energy, so his voice couldn't be sent out, and Chu Liuxiang had already gone far away.
But Jin Banhua was still there, waiting for a while, but he didn't wait for Wuhua, who was supposed to appear outside the house. Instead, there was a faint sound of wind coming from a sleeve not far away, and it suddenly went away.
Jin Banhua narrowed his eyes and understood.
Although Wuhua was cruel, he never killed people who didn't need to be killed.
Whether it was killing Zuo Youzheng, Ximen Qian, Lingjiuzi, Zhamuhe, or killing Yang Song, Song Gang, Tianyingzi and even Nangong Ling, they all had a purpose.
And he was obviously an innocent person who was just joining in the fun. Wuhua didn't want to kill him, so he didn't show up, and also let Sun Xuepu, who had already finished speaking, go.
Letting him go was just like him letting Leng Qiuhun and Shen Shangu go.
"Damn, I was ignored." Jin Banhua muttered to himself, patted Sun Xuepu's arm, left a silver ingot, and waved to Liao Gang and Ye Jin, "Let's go."
Ye Jin asked, "Go to Wuyi Temple?"
Jin Banhua shook his head. Master Suxin had died a long time ago, and Wuyi Temple had become a horror house. What was there to do there?
"It's getting dark, let's go eat first, and then go back to Kuaiyi Hall!" Jin Banhua said leisurely, "I won more than 100,000 taels of silver yesterday. Today, I have to make persistent efforts and pursue the victory?"
Liao Gang and Ye Jin: ? ? ?
…
After returning to the city and having dinner, when they returned to the main street and were about to go to Kuaiyi Hall, they heard the sound of horse hooves, and a black horse galloped over, with a black-clad teenager sitting on its back.
Black cloak, black shirt, black belt, black leather boots, and a pale face.
At the same time, four or five beggars suddenly jumped out of the alley beside the road, some old and some young, some empty-handed or holding sticks, and attacked the black-clad teenager head on.
"You little thief hurt my Beggar Gang elder, come back with us and kowtow to apologize!"
"The gang leader and the four guardians have been dispatched, you can't escape!"
Before they could get close, a long black whip suddenly swung out from the black-clad teenager's hand, like a poisonous dragon coming out of a cave, splitting light and shadows and leaving several afterimages.
Before the beggars got close, they were whipped by the whip one after another, screaming and falling out.
"Humph, the Beggars' Sect is really a bunch of rubbish, pretending to be righteous all day long, and only relying on numbers." The black-clothed youth sneered, "A bunch of stinky beggars, I will beat you up every time I see you in the future!"
The people around them were terrified and avoided, only Jin Banhua stood not far away and watched with interest.
Not paying attention to the wails of the Beggar Clan disciples, the young man in black rode his horse and came to Jin Banhua. He glanced sideways at Jin Banhua and said, "Do you know where Ruyi Hall is?"
"Of course I know, I'm going to Rui Yi Tang now!" Jin Banhua said with a smile, "How about we go together?"
The young man in black nodded and said coldly, "You lead the way!"
"Okay!" Jin Banhua nodded and said to Liao Gang, "Let's go, you lead the way!"
Liao Gang was frightened and wanted to pull Jin Banhua away, but feeling the cold gaze of the young man in black, he did not dare to speak and could only lead the way.
Jin Banhua naturally walked beside the boy in black.
The boy in black is Black Pearl, the daughter of Jamuka, the king of the desert. She is disguised as a man, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. She is so handsome that even Chu Liuxiang didn't notice, which shows how handsome she is.
"Brother, do you want to go to Rui Yi Tang to play a few games?" Jin Banhua asked, "Rui Yi Tang is indeed the largest casino in Jinan, but the stakes there are also big. Brother, do you have a lot of money? Do you want some support?"
Black Pearl looked at Jin Banhua and sneered, "Are you rich?"
"Yes, I am very rich." Jin Banhua said with a smile.
A disdainful sneer appeared at the corner of Black Pearl's mouth, and she said deliberately, "In that case, then lend me one hundred thousand taels for fun first."
"It's a small matter!" Jin Banhua nodded, decisively took out the banknotes from her arms, and counted out the 100,000 taels of banknotes to her.
Black Pearl looked at the banknote handed to her, then raised her head and glared at Jin Banhua.
For the daughter of the Desert King, one hundred thousand taels of silver was certainly not a big sum, but a person who met her for the first time casually gave her a hundred thousand taels of silver, which was beyond her expectations.
