Chapter 291: Chapter 0291 - Gambling Stone Field

Bald Man dared not refute and hurriedly echoed, "It should be the case."

"Hmph, a bunch of trash, still needing me to personally take action!"

Scolded by the man in Tang costume, Bald dared not even raise his head, merely nodding gently, his posture of kneeling on the ground making it seem as if he was kowtowing.

"Did he say anything?"

Bald Man was stunned for a moment, stuttering, "He said... he said to tell you, the person standing behind Huo Tianqian has arrived."

"Uh?" The man in Tang costume’s eyes flashed with sharpness, as he grabbed Bald Man’s collar and lifted him up: "Did he really say that?"

"It’s absolutely true, I wouldn’t dare to deceive you at all!" Sweat rolled down Bald Man’s forehead, along his cheeks, even soaking a large part of his collar.

Disgusted, the man in Tang costume released his hand and threw him to the ground.

"Hehehe, good, good!"

Losing a disciple didn’t matter, as long as he could catch that young man, that would be a great achievement!

He had already noticed that Huo Tianqian’s strength was forcefully boosted by someone, and definitely not more than a month ago.

That is to say, a month ago, Huo Tianqian was still an ordinary person who hadn’t even stepped into the threshold of the Martial Arts World!

If he could capture the person behind him, maybe he could acquire this method, by then, the entire Tang Sect’s disciples could all be promoted to Postnatal Middle Stage...

Thinking of this, the man in Tang costume trembled with excitement!

"Right." After a few dozen seconds, the man in Tang costume calmed down and said to the still kneeling Bald Man: "Why did you come back?"

"Eh?" Bald Man widened his eyes, somewhat confusedly looking at him.

The man in Tang costume sneered, suddenly stepped forward, and pressed a palm on top of Bald’s skull.

Bald only managed a muffled groan before deep red blood flowed from his orifices, until death, his eyes still wide open, filled with incomprehension.

The man in Tang costume coldly glanced at the kneeling corpse: "Hmph, trash, your elder brother has died, why are you still alive?"

......

Perhaps it was because of Chu Ge’s influence, the Ouyang family’s efficiency was astonishingly fast, the next morning, just as Chu Ge finished washing up, his room’s door was knocked.

"You are..." Looking at the stranger in a suit and a travel-weary demeanor at the door, Chu Ge asked softly.

"You must be Mr. Chu, I am surnamed Ouyang, also from the Ouyang family, this time I specially came to deliver an invitation to Mr. Chu!" After saying this, the man in the suit took out a small wooden box from his chest.

The wooden box was opened, inside were two exquisitely decorated invitations, the bright red paper filled with golden hot-stamped lettering.

"Thank you for your efforts." As cold as winter wind to enemies, as gentle as a breeze to friends, this was Chu Ge’s principle of handling matters.

He stepped aside, "Rest a bit, drink some water?"

"Oh, thank you for Mr. Chu’s kind intentions, but I must hurry back!" After a few brief words, the man in the suit left.

At this moment, Huo Tianqian just happened to open his room door, Chu Ge pulled out an invitation and handed it to him: "Your invitation, looking at the date, it’s tomorrow night, we better go out and familiarize ourselves with Su City today."

"Everything as Mr. Chu commands!" Huo Tianqian respectfully took the invitation.

Although Su City is not as prosperous as Shanghai, it is still a developed city; although it’s still early, the streets are already bustling with pedestrians.

Chu Ge randomly picked a stall, possibly a habit formed while with Bingtong, he always hoped to have soy milk and dough sticks every morning.

"Hey, have you guys heard? Tomorrow is Mr. Tang’s eightieth birthday, and I heard tomorrow night the Tang family is hosting a birthday banquet, and all the well-known figures from Su City will be there."

A man in a shirt was telling this to several people at the same table, while a man sitting next to him raised his chopsticks: "That’s old news, now those famous hotels in Shanghai are basically filled with big shots."

Listening to the two men discussing without any disguise, and the indifferent expressions of those around, Chu Ge couldn’t help but smile and ask, "So the big families here aren’t secretive at all? I remember the Four Great Families in Shanghai, common people don’t know about them at all, right?"

Huo Tianqian, sitting across from Chu Ge, quickly responded after hearing Chu Ge’s question: "Maybe it’s due to regional reasons, the two big families here are very open, even the ordinary people at the grassroots level know about the existence of the Tang family and the Shen Family."

"So, it seems that it’s not difficult to gather information?" Chu Ge stroked his chin, muttering softly.

Knowing yourself and the enemy allows you to be ever-victorious; he initially thought it would take a lot of effort to find out information about the Tang family, however, judging by the current situation, it seems not as difficult as he imagined?

Chu Ge’s voice was not concealed, so Huo Tianqian, sitting on the ground, vaguely heard his mutterings and cautiously asked, "Does Mr. Chu want to learn some insider information about the Tang family?"

"Uh-huh." Chu Ge nodded, giving Huo Tianqian a look: "Do you have a way?"

"Hehe, I just happened to know." Huo Tianqian chuckled and said, "There’s a famous place in Su City, called the Jade Circle, actually a gambling stone field, I know one of the Tang family’s young misses seems quite interested in this area, and often goes there, maybe, we can start from her."

"The Tang family’s young miss, gambling stone?" Chu Ge suddenly remembered the scene of helping Mr. Ouyang gamble stones before, his eyes lit up, nodding and saying, "Alright, take me there."

After breakfast, the two took a taxi to the gambling stone field on the outskirts of the city.

This place seemed to be a repurposed industrial park, many buildings still not removed, but now they were being used as warehouses for storing stones.

There were also many burly security guards standing at the entrance of the field; after all, this kind of place often had disturbances, it required some powerful people to keep order.

Gambling stone, crudely put, is a form of disguised gambling, some people become rich overnight, while others lose everything in a moment, naturally not lacking those who cause trouble after losing bets, some even resorting to suicide threats.

"Yo, isn’t this Master Huo!"

Just as Huo Tianqian got off the car, the person in charge of the gambling stone field came over with a big smile.

Having been here a few times before, Huo Tianqian was known by the person in charge for his generous spending, treated like an ancestor.

As for being pursued... Even though the two big families were public, the Ancient Martial World was still hidden; an ordinary person like him still couldn’t reach matters of the Ancient Martial World!
