I, the wanderer of the universe, love making friends

Chapter 316 Don’t Be Afraid of Qiu Xiaochi

Qiu Xiaochi is indeed very famous in Taiwan.

Maybe it’s because he is the apprentice of the gambling devil Chen Jincheng, or maybe it’s because he is capable enough.

So when Shen Lang was eating, he heard the people sitting next to him mention it.

"Adong, Adong, come here." Someone at the table on the left said.

A man stepped in and said with a smile, "I didn't expect to run into you, Old Zhao, and Brother Li here."

Brother Li also laughed and said, "What a coincidence, Adong, come over and have dinner with us."

Jiang Yunyun leaned close to Shen Lang's ear and whispered, "The man who came in is called Xu Dong. He's not very famous in Taiwan. As for the one called Lao Zhao, his name is Zhao Zhi, and the one with the surname Li is called Li Yong. They are all lone travelers."

Shen Lang nodded, too lazy to know what these people's names were, and even too lazy to ask whether they had beautiful wives and daughters.

"Don't worry about them, let's continue eating." Shen Lang and Jiang Yunyun said in a low voice.

After Xu Dong came in and sat down, he asked, "Chen Jincheng's disciple Qiu Xiaochi suddenly sent an invitation to our fellow Taiwanese martial artists. Not only was the time urgent, but he also said that he would welcome us. Do you two know about this?"

The gambling devil Chen Jincheng is very famous.

He can be called a great gambler, not only has superb gambling skills, but is also extremely cunning.

Especially his battle with the God of Gamblers Gao Jin attracted the attention of countless people.

Gao Jin was already a world-famous gambling god at that time. He was invited by a famous Japanese gangster to come up the mountain to help him take revenge, and thus the century-long battle between the gambling god and the gambling devil began.

Moreover, Gao Jin's cousin Gao Yi also teamed up with the gambling devil to deal with Gao Jin, and together they studied the gambling god's flaws. They planned to use high technology and work with Gao Yi, the traitor, to create a winning gambling game.

Little did they know that the God of Gamblers was more skilled than them and had already seen through their tricks. He even used their tricks against them. In the end, Gao Yi died at the hands of the gambling devil Chen Jincheng, and he himself was sent to prison.

But no one expected Qiu Xiaochi to worship Chen Jincheng as his master, and even act under Chen Jincheng's name.

Zhao Zhi said, "I've heard about this. It's said that something happened to Hai'an, the boss of the East Lake Gang. Hai'an's daughter, Haitang, was trying to keep it a secret, but Qiu Xiaochi exposed it. It seems he's planning to seize power from Haitang."

Li Yong replied, "If you ask me, this Haitang is also a great figure. Although she is a woman, she is as capable as any man. She is brave and resourceful. I don't know who will win."

As he said this, he laughed a few times.

Xu Dong said: "Anyway, it's impossible for the flower to fall into my house, so I thought of going to Qiu Xiaochi to see if there is any good deal."

Zhao Zhi said: "There is definitely a good deal, but I don't know if you have the courage to do it."

Xu Dong asked curiously, "What good business could Qiu Xiaochi have? Hasn't he always made a living by gambling? Is there anyone who knows more about this kind of thing than him?"

Li Yong smiled and said, "This matter has nothing to do with gambling, and it's also extremely secretive. Even Qiu Xiaochi's subordinates know very little about it. But I happen to have channels in this area, so I know some information."

Hearing this, Xu Dong hurriedly asked, "Brother Li, can you tell me what good deal it is?"

Li Yong looked around and saw no one was paying attention, so he lowered his voice and said, "I wonder if you two brothers have heard about Qiu Xiaochi being knocked unconscious in Haitang's place?"

"I have heard about this incident. It is said that the person who knocked Qiu Xiaochi unconscious was only a young man. Not only Qiu Xiaochi was knocked unconscious, but also his subordinates." Zhao Zhi replied.

Xu Dong nodded. "I've heard about this as well, but I don't know who knocked him out yet. Could it be that Brother Li has some inside information?"

"Of course." Li Yong smiled mysteriously. "I heard that the man's name was Shen Lang. He knocked Qiu Xiaochi unconscious because Qiu Xiaochi tripped him. Not only did he not compensate him, he also refused to apologize."

"What do you mean Qiu Xiaochi tripped him?" Zhao Zhi asked in confusion, "Didn't he stretch out his foot to trip Qiu Xiaochi?" "It was indeed Shen Lang who stretched out his foot to trip Qiu Xiaochi, but Shen Lang thought it was Qiu Xiaochi's fault." Li Yong said.

Zhao Zhi nodded thoughtfully. "If that's the case, then I guess that Qiu Xiaochi's sudden invitation to heroes must be to discuss how to deal with Shen Lang. I heard that Qiu Xiaochi never suffers any loss. Even his master, the Gambler, was tricked by him."

Li Yong said, "That's right, so Qiu Xiaochi naturally wants to find someone to help him take revenge on Shen Lang. Brothers, let's not talk about this. Since we finally met, come on, let's have a few drinks and talk about these things on the road."

Shen Lang was too lazy to listen any further and went to eat with Jiang Yunyun first.

After eating and drinking, he walked over to the table of the three people and said with a smile: "Brothers, long time no see."

The three of them looked at each other, all with puzzled expressions.

Then Li Yong asked: "Brother, do you know us?"

Shen Lang smiled and said, "Although I don't know you, you must know me."

"What do you mean?" Xu Dong frowned. "Where did you come from? Tell me your name!"

Li Yong said, "Brother, did you recognize the wrong person?"

"I don't care whether I recognized the wrong person or not, because you must care about me very much." Shen Lang said.

Zhao Zhi frowned, winked at Li Yong and Xu Dong, and then asked, "Brother, what's your name? If you have anything to say, please speak frankly."

Lone rangers who can stay in the underworld for a long time usually have good eyesight, because those who don’t have good eyesight would have been hacked to death long ago.

Although he thought the man looked unfamiliar, he did not rush to say anything bad to him.

Shen Lang smiled and said, "I will keep my name and surname. Shen Lang, I heard you guys talking about me just now, so I came over to say hello so that you wouldn't miss me."

Li Yong laughed heartily and said, "So you are the famous Shen Lang. It is said that Qiu Xiaochi was defeated by you. You are indeed courageous."

Shen Lang also laughed and said, "If you don't have courage and insight, you won't make it in this world. I just heard that Qiu Xiaochi is hosting a banquet, so I want to go and broaden my horizons. I wonder if I can go with you three?"

Li Yong was surprised and thought, "Qiu Xiaochi is holding a banquet, and half of the reason is to deal with you. Instead of running away, you're actually going to attend. Are you tired of living, or do you have some other purpose?"

After his thoughts raced, he thought to himself, "Even Qiu Xiaochi suffered at his hands. He must be so confident that he walked into his trap. I must not fall for his tricks."

Seeing that he hesitated to answer, Shen Lang continued, "It has been more than half a month since I, Shen Lang, last saw Qiu Xiaochi. I really want to see him. Since the three brothers know where he is, please help point the way."

Li Yong thought, "I'm worried he'll take advantage of the situation. If I lure him to Qiu Xiaochi's party, maybe Qiu Xiaochi will even do me some good. Besides, there are definitely many skilled underworld figures. If we attack them in groups, even if he has three heads and six arms, he'll still be outnumbered."

After thinking about it, he came up with an idea and took out the post sent by Qiu Xiaochi and handed it to Shen Lang.

He said, "This time Qiu Xiaochi's banquet will be held at the Grand Hotel. If Brother Shen is willing to go, I think Qiu Xiaochi will definitely welcome you. However, there has never been a good banquet since ancient times. If anything goes wrong with Brother Shen, I can't bear the responsibility."

Shen Lang smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, I, Shen Lang, am a gangster. I only need one move to kill people. But I have to go back to sleep with my wife now. You guys go first. I will go over in an hour or two. And I will go alone. Tell Qiu Xiaochi not to be afraid."

Li Yong secretly glanced at Xu Dong and Zhao Zhi, and saw them nod slowly.

He continued, "In that case, the three of us will go to the Grand Hotel to inform them and wait for Brother Shen to arrive."

After Shen Lang and Jiang Yunyun left, the three of them hurriedly paid the bill, got in the car, stepped on the accelerator, and drove straight to the Grand Hotel.

But the three of them made various guesses along the way, and still could not figure out what Shen Lang meant by saying he wanted to go to the Grand Hotel alone.
